mountain and river drinker

Chapter 17

Always pursed his lips without saying a word.

After returning to the mansion, Qin Ronggu moved to live in Zhenhua Courtyard, and locked the Tingrong Courtyard where he used to live.He sat alone on the steps in front of the house, with a hook hanging on the moon, the stars were sparse and the night was bright, and the bamboo shadows overlapped and swept the ground.He suddenly felt a pain in his heart, and couldn't help coughing up a mouthful of blood, but he still didn't care about the pain, but he was happy that Zhegan didn't lie to him, he really gave his life to Zhou Hanzhi, Zhou Hanzhi was still alive.

Zhaoyu squatted beside the bamboo and watched Qin Ronggu covering his face and crying. Qin Ronggu put down the wine glass in his hand and laughed at Zhaoyu for being a child. When he stood up, he fainted due to the severe pain in his heart.

In the future, I will not send any letters or send any news, I hope Zhou Hanzhi will not remember him anymore.Zhou Hanzhi can still live for a long time, whether he likes him, hates him or forgets him, it has nothing to do with him, he just silently remembers that there is such a person.

This person is his sweetheart, he puts it in his heart, and thinks about pain and pain.That's it, fine... fine.

Passing through the three prefectures of Xianxishen, half a month of wind and dust, Zhou Hanzhi almost didn't stay long on the road and went straight to northern Xinjiang, and finally stood under the city wall of Shenjiyi station in the south of Longzhou.Shenji Station is adjacent to Shenji Mountain in the north. It is rumored that chickens are crowing on Shenji Mountain and the sky is white. When Zhou Hanzhi first heard about it, he wanted to catch a few chickens to have a look.

He let out a long sigh of relief and waited for the soldiers to check his identity, then walked into Wengcheng and passed the gate.Fuyan watched him walk into the post, waved goodbye to him, turned and left without stopping.

The blue brick wall is surrounded by mud, and the wax safflower pellets are opened in front of the wooden door by the roadside.There are a few children in a large bush that is as tall as a person. The palm-sized flowers are looking forward with their heads propped up one by one. The children hiding in it are laughing and laughing.

A disheveled Dylan child ran into him at a sprint. He took a few steps back and didn't care about being touched. He helped the child up and patted the dirt on the child.The child looked at Zhou Hanzhi without blinking, with a high nose and deep eyes, light blond hair, and a pair of eyes that should be the best green opal in northern Xinjiang.

"Thank you brother, my name is Anivar!" Anivar smiled at Zhou Hanzhi, showing his white teeth silly.

"Anivar!" Suddenly, three or four guards rushed towards him calling his name, and Anivar turned around and ran away when he saw that the situation was not good.

"You..." Zhou Hanzhi straightened up and looked at Anivar with raised eyebrows.

"There's no meat in their prison! I want to change to another prison! Brother, don't let them catch me. I dug for a long time before I escaped!" After speaking, Anival disappeared like a gust of wind.

"..." Zhou Hanzhi shook his head helplessly, stopped a few guards, yawned a little and took out his paperwork.Seeing this, the guard stopped looking for El Niva and took him to the government office.There were not many people on the street, Zhou Hanzhi followed them slowly, and saw Erniva who was hiding in the dark and waved at him.

The young Yi Cheng cheerfully came out to meet him.

"Please, my lord." Zhou Hanzhi handed the reins to the servants and Yicheng and entered the yard. The blue brick wall was unpretentious, and a few short stone slabs were embedded on the screen wall as soon as he entered the gate.

"Don't say that, I've been waiting for Hanzhi for many days, and everything has been reserved for you, just waiting for you to come to see me at night and scold me for being mean, tired and lazy." Yicheng said, "Hot water handkerchiefs are all prepared Okay, let's take a break."

"How can you be so busy." Zhou Hanzhi smiled, how many things can be done in a small place.The place is not big, and the heart is quiet.The painting inlaid with bricks was right in front of him, "That's the swastika pattern," he pointed to the screen wall to Yicheng.

"That's right, the ten thousand-character flower inlaid with bricks. The ten thousand character can't reach the end, and Fuping has been around for ten thousand years." Yicheng pushed the tree in front of him, and the towering tree remained motionless. "We are a peaceful and good place. There is a lot of business in the south and the Tengguwu River flows in the north. It is a rare land of endless life. If I want to build water conservancy, I have to ask Hanzhi for help. "

"I'm so ignorant that I don't dare to take it." Zhou Hanzhi stretched his waist, it was really a peaceful place, not only peaceful but also comfortable.

"My lord, the young master has been captured!" A tall and thick guard walked in carrying Anivar who had just run past. Anivar bit the guard's arm, and the guard frowned and pulled him down.

"..." Zhou Hanzhi supported his forehead.

"My dear son, are you running around again today?"

"You're not my father!" Anival rolled his eyes and sat on the ground and burst into tears, "You are... an old bastard! Shameless Zhao Rixin, you look different from me and still call yourself my father!"

"Okay, okay, whoever is old, I'm your father! Don't shout anymore! If you make a fuss again, I will lock you up for another day." Yi Cheng frowned and said a few words of apology to Zhou Hanzhi, and picked up the child on the ground and hurried Went to the other side.

Zhou Hanzhi laughed unconsciously, and the guard from just now came over with his arms covered.

"My lord is a newcomer, you watch Xianle for a few days, and Anivar will bore you to death after a while."

"Oh?"

"Hey——our Master Zhao picked up a living treasure as his son."

"Hahahaha feelings are picked." Zhou Hanzhi had to look at Yicheng differently. Being such a young father must have a twists and turns in the story.

He felt happy when he first came here. The trees in the courtyard were tall, and the sun was low and bright when viewed from Longzhou in northern Xinjiang, and the sunlight was shining white.El Niva yelled and ran over to hide behind Zhou Hanzhi, Zhao Rixin circled around him a few times trying to catch the monkey-like little boy hiding behind him.

The pine tree in Xianghe Palace Xiangsongyuan is also very tall, and the person beside him is Qin Ronggu.Zhou Hanzhi shook his head, but he will soon forget about that, he thought.

In the past month, Zhou Hanzhi, Zhao Rixin and others traveled westward along the Shenji Mountain, and returned at sunrise and sunset.The north and south sides of the Shenji Station are bounded by mountains, and the area along the mountains is reserved as the access route for Xisai. The people of Dylan can also come along the mountains to exchange information with each other, and there is no reclamation at all.

Nomads in Longzhou are in the north of the mountain, and Tianlimu and neighboring villages and towns are in the east of the mountain to divert water to irrigate the fields. Zhao Rixin and his party have long intended to cultivate the land, and set aside trade routes, and then set up bans on woodcutters.

Zhou Hanzhi and Zhao Rixin walked around according to the map while the weather was still warm, and the weather in northern Xinjiang was getting cold quickly.He has only been here for one month, and the leaves have all fallen. Walking on the road, the leaves of the deserted mountains are withered and desolate, and the dead branches are slanted. Looking up, you can see the clear sky and the bright sun like a bronze mirror, shining round and smooth on the earth.Horseshoes step on the ground and raise a thin layer of dry dust. There are tall white reeds growing on the side of the road, with white silk flocks blooming on the top, and the wind can fly very far.

Zhao Rixin became interested, and the next day after getting rid of that brat El Niva, he took the guqin and ran over to sit cross-legged, playing "Duan Ganmu" stroking the strings.There is a layer of calluses on his fingers, and when he presses the strings with eight fingers, he can hear the tenacious friction between his fingertips and the strings.

"I played something wrong," Zhao Rixin looked up at Zhou Hanzhi, Zhou Hanzhi was staring blankly at the front and sitting next to him, and the servants had long lost interest and went somewhere, "Don't listen to the piano if you are restless."

"I... sorry, I was distracted." Zhou Hanzhi blinked and regained his thoughts, "I seldom listen to "Duan Ganmu" played."

Flute for a hundred days, flute for a thousand days, and erhu for ten years to play the qin.

Qin Ronggu felt that for a king, culture can stabilize the country, and martial arts can stabilize the country. Zhou Hanzhi thought that he didn't bother playing the piano to enjoy flowers, but Qin Ronggu's mother played the piano well, so naturally he would not be far behind.When Qin Ronggu was 15 years old, because of Xiangwen and the Queen's anger, he never touched the strings again, but after his technique became unfamiliar, he played it once for Zhou Hanzhi.He laughed at Qin Ronggu for playing badly, but Qin Ronggu was not angry, he just said that the piano was a good one and that he couldn't play it with his own hands.

Zhou Hanzhi would occasionally dream of Qin Ronggu, smiling gently, or holding him by the hand.Just waking up and thinking about the dream, and feeling that Qin Ronggu's use of him to imprison him was too much, so he overcame that tenderness.Dreams are good dreams, but... most good things are not firm, and the colored clouds are easy to disperse and the glass is brittle.

Zhao Rixin was in a daze just like him, and the two sat quietly for a long time without saying a word.After a long time, Zhao Rixin stood up, straightened his clothes, and stretched out his hand to Zhou Hanzhi, "Let's go, I'll pull you up, it's time to go back."

"En." Zhou Hanzhi put a few white silk wadding in his hands and stood up.It was cold, so he put on a cloak with ten brocade bottoms, and his pointed chin was hidden in the silver fox fur collar.Looking at him, Zhao Rixin suddenly felt that the people around him were not very big, and Wangdu was a prosperous place, but Zhou Hanzhi took the paperwork approved by the prince himself and ran to the border of Biyi in northern Xinjiang.

"Hanzhi's teacher is Master Lu Keli?" Zhao Rixin asked him.

Zhou Hanzhi was very surprised, "Master Lu is very nice, but it would be too far-fetched for me to say that he is his student. How would brother Geng know?" He thought that Zhao Rixin didn't know this, and he didn't think that he could be accepted as a student of Lu Keli. figure it out.

"I'm a student of Mr. Lu. He speaks differently from others. I can tell at a glance when you read the book. I was originally from Wangdu. My grandfather was working under Jin Xian. When the big case happened, the whole family came to the North." Later, this matter subsided, and my father decided to return to the capital. I was fortunate to accept Master Lu’s teachings, but... I insisted on returning here later. Master Lu has a weird temper, but he was kind to the students. At that time, Master Jiang brought The students who are under the ruler all day long." Zhao Rixin walked slowly, pushing away the dead branches in front of him, "I like Erniva's sister, she has been engaged to me since she was a child. I am not ruthless, but Heartbreaker, I went to the capital later, and when I came back, she was forced to marry a woman, but the husband was tyrannical... Later, I looked after El Niva for her. Set up schools here, plant trees, open fields and land, and get rid of vulgarity Violence is probably also my practice."

"Why do you claim to be Er Niwa's father?" Zhou Hanzhi couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this, logically Er Niwa should also call him brother.

"Because his father begged me to watch him before he died." Zhao Rixin raised an eyebrow at him, "Why don't you take advantage of it? I won't marry a wife in the future, and I'm not allowed to have a son? You come here."
