"No! No! Uncle Wen, once you go up the mountain, what will the world think of you? Qianqiu Shi Ce cannot spare you!"
Li Gefei paused slightly when he was about to take over the imperial decree from the young eunuch, and then took the imperial edict with both hands.
He turned his head to look at Fan Zhongyan, whose eyes were full of concern and worry, bowed and saluted, and said, "Thank you so much, Mr. Fan! Ge Fei is too mediocre to bear the heavy responsibility and has failed Mr. Fan's expectations!"
When Fan Zhongyan saw that Li Gefei had accepted the order and knew that he was irreversible, he said sadly: "Uncle Wen! It's my fault! I shouldn't have let you come back in the first place!"
Fan Zhongyan was sad not only about Li Gefei, but also about the dim prospects of the new coup law and the emperor's swing.
Everyone in the court bowed their heads and remained silent. Even Zhao Ji, who was sitting on the dragon throne, turned a deaf ear and pretended not to hear the words.
Li Gefei briefly looked at the courtiers' reactions, and felt even more desperate for the court in his heart!
He forced a smile and said to Fan Zhongyan: "Mr. Fan, there is no need to worry about me. I haven't seen my naughty daughter for many days, and I really miss her! You might as well go and see her!"
"Uncle Wen... alas!" Fan Zhongyan looked at Li Gefei, and his thousands of words finally turned into a sigh!
After the dynasty dispersed, Li Gefei did not accompany any officials, but returned to his residence in a sedan chair.
As soon as he entered the door, he immediately asked someone to bring him blessings.
Not long after, Laifu came to the study.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Li Gefei sitting on a chair, closing his eyes and meditating.
He had not changed out of his official uniform, but he had one hand on the desk, and there was a bright yellow scroll underneath, which was obviously an imperial edict.
"Master," Laifu called softly.
Li Gefei came back to his senses and looked at Laifu.
Laifu came to the side of the table, leaned forward and said, "Shall I help you change your clothes?"
Li Gefei waved his hand slightly, removed his hand from the imperial edict, and motioned with his eyes to open Laifu and take a look.
Laifu paused for a moment, then shook his head and said, "This old slave is just a domestic servant. How can he read the imperial edict of the imperial court?"
Li Gefei chuckled and said in a calm tone: "Haha, the court? It's okay. Just watch it. I'm about to leave after watching it! Alas!"
Laifu was slightly stunned. Seeing that something was wrong with Li Gefei's expression and tone, he didn't care about his superiority and inferiority, so he picked up the imperial edict and opened it to read.
After just two glances, Laifu raised his head and looked at Li Gefei in surprise, "What? I want you to deliver a decree to Qingyun Mountain to confer marriage? Or is it our lady?"
Li Gefei remained silent.
Laifu had been following Li Gefei for a long time. How could he not be aware of some of the dirty things in the officialdom? He couldn't help but said angrily: "Is this the idea of some dog official in the court? This old slave has risked his life to get rid of him, so he went to kill him." !”
Li Gefei shook his head slightly and said with a hint of sadness: "The current Song Dynasty court cannot be changed by killing any official. The roots of the Song Dynasty are rotten!"
Laifu put the imperial edict back on the table, pondered for a moment, and suddenly said: "Why don't you let me go to Qingyun Mountain instead of me?"
Li Gefei shook his head and said with a smile: "You are not an official, so it is unreasonable to go and deliver the decree."
Then he added: "Besides, I said goodbye to the official road at the foot of Qingyun Mountain that day, and so did I... I haven't seen Zhao'er for quite some time."
Laifu lowered his head and remained silent.
"Don't worry, Na Shan... well, Zhao'er, her, her husband, I've met him. Although he has a bad background, he is still a decent person, has a personable manner, and has an all-round ability. Even the imperial court, the imperial court There is nothing he can do. Looking at his words and deeds, he is a person who values love and justice."
Li Gefei continued to think about himself: "Zhao'er is already married, but my father has never met her, and I don't know if she is living well in the mountains. Do they treat her sincerely? In the end, I still have to do this. Father, go and see it for yourself, it will make you feel at ease!”
"master!"
Seeing Li Gefei's face getting worse and worse as he spoke, and his demeanor becoming more decadent, and Laifu's sad expression, I knew that he was angry and confused.
He hurriedly stepped forward, put one palm on Li Gefei's back and activated his inner strength, and the internal energy poured into his body to help him stabilize his mind.
After a long time, Laifu slowly retracted his palm, took a long breath, looked at Li Gefei with concern and said, "Master, how do you feel now?"
Li Gefei's expression softened slightly and he shook his head slightly to indicate that nothing was wrong, but his mood became obviously calm.
Laifu stood quietly beside Li Gefei.
After lighting a stick of incense at the end of the month, Li Gefei slowly raised his head and said, "Come for blessings."
"Master," Laifu turned sideways.
"Brother Laifu, thank you for your care over the years. Now, I am going to Qingyun Mountain. You, clean up the house, and then sell the house. With the money you get, you can find a remote place to live in peace. For the rest of your life!”
"No, Master, I won't leave!" Laifu hurriedly knelt down, grabbed Li Gefei's sleeves and said sadly: "My life was saved by Master, and Master helped me clear up my grievances. If it weren't for Master, I wouldn't have come here." Fu! Wherever you are, Laifu is there!”
Li Gefei was also moved, patted Laifu's hand, and said Qi Qiran: "When I took you from Qizhou, I was very high-spirited and wanted to take you to do a vigorous career. However, God failed to fulfill my wish. First... …well!"
Unable to look back, he added: "Now I don't know what the future holds. If you follow me, it will only hurt you."
Laifu shook his head and said firmly: "No, I won't leave. Miss is still in Qingyun Mountain. Master is going alone, so I will follow him. Even if I die, I will follow him!"
Seeing his resolute attitude, Li Gefei sighed and said after a long time: "Let's go! In that case, you can clean up the house and follow me to Qingyun Mountain!"
Laifu wiped the wet corners of his eyes with his sleeves and responded seriously: "Yes, sir!"
Linxiang County, among the county seats.
Shangguan Haitang, dressed as a young man in white, frowned and walked on the street, thinking about how to sneak into Qingyun Mountain.
Suddenly, someone hit me hard. When I looked carefully, I found that it was a thin little beggar.
The little beggar was knocked to the ground, holding his legs and shouting "Ouch, Ouch, Ouch".
"Ouch, someone was killed!"
The little beggar's face was dark and full of pain. He grabbed Shangguan Haitang's legs with both hands and refused to let him go.
A pair of big and smart eyes, but they kept turning around, looking at Shangguan Haitang from time to time.
Anyone with a discerning eye will know at a glance that it is fake.
When Shangguan Haitang saw this, he was immediately furious. He curled his lips, pointed at the dirty spots on his clothes that were scratched by the little beggar, and said angrily: "I'm warning you, get up quickly, I'm not blamed yet." You soiled my clothes!"
Unexpectedly, when the little beggar heard this, he shouted even more fiercely, "Oh! It's unreasonable! I'm beating someone to death! Someone is going to kill someone in broad daylight!"
All of a sudden, many people watching the excitement gathered around and pointed at Shangguan Haitang.
Seeing that there were more and more people around, Shangguan Haitang squatted down helplessly and whispered to the little beggar without moving his lips: "Girl, if you continue like this, I will have to take action!"
The little beggar was startled when he heard this and looked at Shangguan Haitang in surprise.
Shangguan Haitang continued: "No one can pretend to be under my nose without being discovered by me, so don't let go now!"
Then he smiled and said to the crowd of people eating melons: "Haha, it's okay, it's okay, we were just joking, let's get out of here! Get out of here!"
Seeing that there was no more melon to eat, the crowd of spectators booed and walked away, waving their sleeves.
Seeing the onlookers disperse, Shangguan Haitang looked at the little beggar who was still holding on to his clothes, and said helplessly: "Everyone has dispersed, girl, why don't you get up?"
The little beggar let go after hearing this, stood up and said unwillingly: "How did you find out?"
This time the little beggar did not suppress his voice, and his voice was as pleasant as an oriole's.
