Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 568
There is a lot of snow in Guanzhong this winter.

It was sunny just now, and the clouds turned dark in a blink of an eye. Not long after, another snow fell from the sky, shrouding the [-]-mile Qinchuan in a daze.

Snowflakes, as white and soft as reeds, fluttered one after another, rolling and dancing with the north wind between heaven and earth.

It's a bit cold, but it's a good time to cook wine and enjoy plums.

In the garden of Shen Guogong Mansion.

The lotus pond has long been frozen, and in the pavilion by the pool, a servant has already prepared a charcoal stove clay pot, and put a wind fence around it.

The heavy snow made the continuous buildings of Shen Guogong's mansion cold, desolate and quiet, as if isolated from the world.There was no other sound between heaven and earth except for the tinny sound of snowflakes falling and the gurgling sound of the kettle on the small red clay stove.

The maids and servants were sent away from a distance, and in the pavilion, the two sat opposite each other.

The ground was covered with thick brocade mats to keep out the cold.

Shen Guogong, Gao Shilian, is over sixty years old, but he is well maintained. He wears a large cotton robe with dark patterns of Shu brocade and longevity characters, which is extravagant.Zhang Guozi had a peaceful smile on his face, his gray beard was neatly trimmed, and he had an air of grace.

Sitting across from him, was none other than Changsun Wuji.

Zhangsun Wuji looked a little haggard. He lifted the kettle on the stove with his own hands, washed, brewed, and divided the tea. His movements were skillful and his manners were respectful.

The eldest grandson Wuji lost his father, his mother and sister were kicked out of the house by his half-brother Sun Anye, and he was raised by his uncle Gao Shilian.Gao Shilian saw that Li Shimin was talented, so he married his niece, and the eldest grandson Wuji and Li Shimin became uncles.It is precisely because of Gao Shilian's love and cultivation that the mother of the eldest grandson has the world, and the eldest grandson Wuji has the power to dominate the court and the opposition.

For his uncle, the eldest grandson Wuji regarded him as his own father.

Gao Shilian picked up the white and delicate white porcelain teacup, looked at the crystal green tea soup, and took a sip, a sweetness lingering in his mouth, fresh and sweet.

Putting down the teacup, he sighed: "That Fang Er did an elegant thing after all, this fresh and timeless tea is indeed more elegant than the previous method of brewing tea with a variety of flavors, and the freshness contains glycol. The dullness reveals meaning and eternity, just like life.”

Zhangsun Wuji stared at the cup of tea in front of him, and fell silent upon hearing this.

Gao Shilian didn't even look at him, sipping tea slowly, his eyes looked to the other side of the lotus pond outside Fengwei.

Of course, his nephew understands it himself. He believes that even if he encounters the heaviest setbacks, this nephew will already figure it out on his own and get out of the bottom of the valley, and he does not need to explain and persuade himself.

Xueluo was speechless and fell silent.

Goose feather snow in the sky, fluttering, unrestrained flying.In an instant, there is a snow-covered world between heaven and earth.

A clump of plum trees by the lotus pond greeted the frost and snow, and the pale red flowers bloomed freely in the flying snow.Plum blossoms and snowflakes complement each other into a splendid and interesting contrast. Although the distance is a little far, the nose still seems to be bursting with fragrance, which is quiet and pleasant, refreshing.

Tea fragrance and plum fragrance, regardless of each other...

After a long time, Changsun Wuji let out a long sigh.

Only then did Gao Shilian withdraw his gaze and looked at the eldest grandson Wuji lovingly, only to realize that his nephew's face, which had always been high-spirited, already had many sorrowful wrinkles, as well as deep exhaustion and anguish.

Years are like water, rushing to the east, no one can hold back a moment.

all old...

After thinking about it, Gao Shilian asked softly, "How is Chong'er now?"

He didn't ask where Changsun Chong is now or what the situation is. This is necessary wisdom. Even the closest relatives must be vigilant enough in this situation.One less person to know, less trouble.

It is a great gift for His Majesty to be able to reminisce about the old, not to investigate the crime of treason committed by Chang Sun Chong, and to let him live and die in anonymity.

Zhangsun Wuji pursed his lips, shook his head and replied, "I don't know. Since I left, I haven't heard from him. I only know that it is probably in the Jiangnan area, but I don't know the actual situation."

The most beloved and promising eldest son ended up in the present end, the eldest grandson Wuji can be described as heart-wrenching.After years of love and cultivation, all the flowers and waters were all in vain, and even Cheng Huan was unable to do anything under his knees. How could it not make him depressed?

The concern for his son made him even more sad, and he was full of grief and anger, and he didn't know how to vent...

Gao Shilian thought for a while and asked, "Changle is still in the palace?"

The eldest grandson Wuji said, "I have been with Princess Fangling in the Taoist temple a few days ago. When something happened to Princess Gaoyang, she returned to the palace to take care of her."

Gao Shilian shook his head secretly, this nephew who is full of wisdom and has a chest, is also in a mess!Changsun Chong is now absconding in fear of crime, how can he implicate Princess Changle again?His Majesty has done his utmost to the eldest grandson's family. If he does not express his position on Princess Changle's future for a long time, I am afraid that His Majesty will be resentful because of resentment, which will be very bad.

Princess Changle, that is His Majesty's eldest daughter, the most beloved daughter of His Majesty and Empress Zhangsun!
Gao Shilian said: "Changle's future, you must decide as soon as possible."

Zhangsun Wuji was stunned, then suddenly.

He is a man of outstanding ingenuity, otherwise how can he help His Majesty Li Er to seize the country in the face of adversity?It was only because the eldest son suffered a great change, which damaged his mind and could not accept the status quo for a while, and subconsciously still kept the hope that the eldest son could return to the mansion one day, so he did not take into account the stay of Princess Changle for a long time.

Now, it's time to decide...

Then he said: "The boy will go to explain this matter to His Majesty in the near future, it is better to reconcile..."

In the gazebo, silence fell again.

Changsun Wuji was extremely satisfied with the daughter-in-law and niece of Princess Changle, and he was also extremely affectionate.Princess Changle is deeply favored by her parents, but she does not have the slightest arrogance. She is knowledgeable, reasonable, gentle and virtuous.

It's a pity that it ended up where it is today...

Things change, nothing more than this.

"Goooooooo"

The kettle on the stove boiled again.

Zhangsun Wuji raised the kettle, brewed tea again, took a deep breath, and said, "How has Shiro been recently, has his injury improved?"

Gao Shilian's old face is a twitch...

His own Shiro's arrogant and domineering temperament has always caused Gao Shilian a headache, but he can't change it after repeated teachings.But it is his own child who was so seriously injured, and it is pure nonsense to say that he is not distressed. Even if he knew that the cause of the incident was the provocation of his own son, how could he not have any resentment towards Fang Jun?

He sighed and said, "Fortunately, the imperial doctor will come to see and treat every few days, saying that it is not disabled, but the kneecap is broken. Ugh……"

Zhangsun Wuji snorted coldly, gritted his teeth and said, "This son is lawless, he will never give up! His Majesty actually has the intention to use this son as the chief marching officer of the Canghai Road, I don't know what it is!"

For Fang Jun, Zhangsun Wuji hated him to the core!
If it weren't for Fang Jun's repeated humiliation of Changsun Chong, Changsun Chong might not have been able to embark on that road of no return!In Zhangsun Wuji's view, Fang Jun was the one who caused the eldest son to go into exile like a lost dog and have no home to return to!

The eldest grandson Wuji, who has always been gloomy and cunning, how could he swallow this breath?

Not even with Fang Xuanling protecting him!
However, Gao Shilian frowned and reminded: "Just by looking at His Majesty's plan, we can see that Fang Jun's intention is actually a plan for the Eastern Expedition, Shiro, don't act rashly."

Changsun Wuji is the youngest son of Changsun Sheng. He has three older brothers and ranks fourth. Gao Shilian has always called him Shiro.

Zhangsun Wuji was about to speak, when suddenly he heard footsteps, and a servant said outside the pavilion, "Patriarch, Erlang of the Housekeeper's House, I'm looking for a meeting outside."

Gao Shilian was stunned, and Zhangsun Wuji looked at each other.

Seriously, Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here!

It's just, what is this little bastard doing in Shen Guogong's mansion?
The only person in the Guogong's mansion who has an intersection with Fang Jun is Gao Zhenxing, but Gao Zhenxing was rehabilitated by Fang Jun's broken leg. That is the real enemy, what does he mean here?

Gao Shilian pondered for a while, then said coldly, "No!"

What are you kidding, what is the place of the Shen Guo Gongfu?Injuring the old man's young son, why do you still want to show off your arrogance?The old man didn't settle accounts with you, it's already a lot of leniency, and I don't know how to advance or retreat!

The servant did not retreat, but said with a bitter face: "Fang Erlang has another sentence, saying that if the head of the family does not see him, all the consequences will be at your own risk.
