The Chinese New Year Festival is a day for the whole world to celebrate together. The people of Tongzhou also enjoyed the first carnival festival in the new year.

Compared with the Shangyuan Festival in Jinling, the most different part here is that there are various ice lanterns to enjoy. The ice lanterns are carefully carved by skilled craftsmen, with built-in lights, crystal clear and crystal-clear like crystal palaces, wandering among them, with a unique style.

However, in a remote and quiet courtyard in Tongzhou Post, it is very different from the joyful and festive atmosphere of the entire Tongzhou City. Only a storm lighted at the gate of the courtyard was lit in the entire courtyard, shaking gently in the cold wind, and sundrying the dim light.

The yard is not small. The buildings in the north are not as exquisite as those in the south, but are generally much wider. There seem to be many people living in this yard. Many windows have faint lights. There seem to be two soldiers standing under the light at the entrance of the yard, standing there like guns, motionless. If you don't pay attention, you won't even find their existence.

But the atmosphere in the courtyard was really depressing. Occasionally, someone walked by in the courtyard, quiet, like a ghost floating under the pale and dim light. Everyone was lightly, as if the sound was a little louder, which would break the rare peace in the courtyard.

In the northernmost corner of the west wing, there is a small house next door. The walls are very thin and the doors are made of thin wooden boards. Such door panels have many gaps that are difficult to see in the naked eye. In this cold weather, the whole house can be as cold as ice.

This is a warehouse, at least in winter, but it is winter, and there is really a person living in the firewood. There is a small stove pit on the ground in the room, and the fire is not strong, and a small bundle of firewood is piled up in the corner of the wall, without charcoal. If you don’t save yourself, you don’t have to wait until dawn. The firewood can be burned out.

A girl curled up tightly beside the fire stove, greedily absorbing the faint warmth from the stove pit. The cold air was everywhere. From time to time, a whirlwind would spread the breath of cold winter through the cracks of the door and the walls, and her body was frozen cold.

The hands and feet near the fire stove were warmer, but this made her hands and feet that had frostbite suddenly itchy. She had to stamp her feet from time to time to temporarily dispel the bone-like itchy itch. However, this movement caused a faint pain in the frostbite. Her delicate eyebrows rose, which made people feel pity.

This woman was Xue Shuiwu. During this grand festival that celebrates the world, she was alone, curled up in this small firewood house, nestled in a bunch of small stoves to keep warm. Until now, she seemed to have a ridiculous dream about her bizarre encounter, and she had no idea what was going on.

Once upon a time, she had a lady to rely on, a parents to support, an unmarried husband to look forward to, and the responsibility to raise a lady to make her strong. But now all this is gone. She is like a duckweed drifting with the flow, a gust of wind blows and a piece of water flows by. She can only let her do it without resistance.

From childhood to adulthood, she has always been a little maid who is under someone else's roof and obeys. What's more, Zhang Jiangling is such an unattainable figure, so she accepted her fate, and she surrendered to fate's arrangement and sent it to the capital by Qi Shuai.

She remembered that day, she took a shower, changed into beautiful clothes, and sat quietly beside the couch, like a weak little flower, waiting to be picked up by a strong man, and raised it in the deep boudoir, but suddenly rushed into a panicked old housekeeper outside.

I don't know what made the old housekeeper look pale as paper. The old housekeeper didn't explain anything to her, but asked me to take her away immediately and send her to a car full of curtains. The car was in a hurry. When she came out of the car, she was already in a courtyard house that seemed to have not been inhabited for a long time.

From that moment on, she was imprisoned in the yard. Shui Wu could see that the people guarding her felt anxious all day long, but they didn't understand what they were afraid of. After that, her treatment became worse and worse, and the people guarding her were getting worse and worse, and sometimes they would scold her for broom spirits.

She didn't know what was going on. She thought that when she arrived in the capital, she would live in a quiet, isolated small world, and she would always see only the corner of the sky above her head. Now it seems to be the same as her imagination, but it is completely different.

Until one day, she saw several mysterious people appearing in front of her. Those people were Qi Shuai's personal soldiers who sent her from Jizhen to the capital. Shui Wu still didn't know what happened. She was sent to a sealed car and left the corner of the sky where she was imprisoned. When she came out of the car again, she had already arrived here.

It was only then that she vaguely heard that the Prime Minister had passed away. Shui Wu could basically imagine that the Prime Minister Zhang might have died suddenly when she was sent to the mansion. Although she didn't understand what it had to do with her a weak and innocent little woman, everyone regarded her as a plague.

It was getting colder and colder, the cold wind was everywhere, and her body was almost frozen. She ate less, and she got very little food now. The personal soldiers who used to treat her very polite and enthusiastic now looked very cold, and they were even colder than the biting cold wind. At this time, her body was cold, her belly was cold, and her heart was even colder.

"Maybe, I'm really a broom star."

Shui Wu thought to herself: "I am a maid, and the master was dismissed from office; I marry with the lady, and my son-in-law was arrested; after going through a lot of hardships, I finally returned to my hometown, and my father died inexplicably. After my mother went to Guiyang, my mother was hit by a rock again...

Finally, I met a kind man from Hong Dada. After receiving his help, I was sent to Qi Shuai, but I was treated coldly and guarded by Concubine Qi. When I arrived in the capital, I thought there could be an unattainable mountain to let her rest her exhausted body and mind, but the mountain collapsed with a loud bang."

"Brother Xiaotian..." Shui Wu remembered the long-lost name: "Brother Xiaotian is very happy, so God asked him to leave me, an ominous woman..."

Shui Wu smiled self-deprecatingly, but her cheeks were almost frozen and she could hardly smile. She raised her hands that were red from the cold and gently rubbed her frozen cheeks: "I am obviously taken back by Qi Shuai's people now. Qi Shuai has been fighting on the battlefield for hundreds of battles, and a generation of heroes. There are countless strong people who die in his hands. They should not be implicated by me."

A gust of cold wind swirled into the woodshed, Shuiwu shivered and curled up a little. On the Chinese New Year, on this cold winter night, the people in the world celebrated the festival. When they were happy, the only thing that could warm her was the little bit of the faint fire in the stove...

In the main room of the courtyard, there was a light like a bean. The two of them sat opposite each other under the light, and their expressions were gloomy. The light was pressed very low and could only shine on their mouths. One person had a white face without beard, while the other had a gray beard under his jaw.

The man with a white face and no beard whispered: "Qi Shaobao, the situation is very bad now. Many people who are respectful and flattering to Mr. Taiyue on weekdays are now using their best to attack Mr. Taiyue!"

It turned out that the person opposite him was Qi Jiguang. Qi Shaobao was silent for a moment and whispered: "I have been the general of Jizhen for more than ten years. Now I have been suddenly transferred to Guangzhou. Is it because of this?"

The man opposite sneered: "There are many people who are taking advantage of the situation now. Some people impeach you, saying that even in the middle of the night, as long as your letter arrives, Mr. Taiyue will open the middle door to meet you. The Prime Minister has such a close relationship with the important officials in the capital who hold heavy troops. It is not a blessing from the court, so there may be suspicion of treason.

But you will not be able to protect your contributions to the country. Everyone in the world knows that the court can act rashly. Therefore, someone has figured out the intention of the superiors and said that you have made contributions to Fujian and Zhejiang. You should be transferred to the south and show your strengths. That is why Your Majesty issued an order to transfer you to the General of Guangzhou."

Even though Qi Jiguang was as determined as a stubborn heart. When he heard this, his gray beard trembled slightly. Although this charge was a stolen shadow, it was enough to kill the emperor. Can the heavenly power keep him safe? Yue Fei and Yu Qian, who has not made great contributions and who has achieved a good end?"

His crisis came from the court's liquidation of Zhang Juzheng, so the biggest key was what the emperor thought. Thinking of this, Qi Jiguang slowly said: "The attacks of all officials are not scary, I just don't know what your Majesty thinks about Mr. Taiyue?"

The white-faced man said angrily: "What else can I think? Three people become tigers! Nowadays, someone is complaining about Mr. Taiyue's darkness every day. Someone told His Majesty about Mr. Taiyue's 32-year-old sedan chair when he returned to his hometown to visit his relatives, and there were two wings next to him. He said that such a large sedan chair was no different from the emperor's sedan chair.

Some people also said, along the way, officials from all over the country welcomed and curled up, and each meal was full of more than a hundred dishes. Mr. Taiyue still felt that there was nothing to say, and there were also beauties from all over the place to offer beauties. There were not less than a hundred beauties in the principal's house. What do you think Your Majesty said?"

Qi Jiguang's lips pursed into a strong arc. After a while of silence, he slowly said: "What do you say?"

The man with a pale face said, "Your Majesty was furious and scolded, "In the first year of Wanli, I had just ascended the throne and was about to celebrate the Spring Festival. Even the people of the people held a banquet to celebrate the New Year. But you, Zhang Jiangling, only asked me to add a few fruits to the matter, and kept saying that it was to save for the people!

I went back to the palace with a scattered court, but I summoned two palace maids to sing and dance. You, Zhang Jiangling, asked me to issue a "self-crime edict" to review the world, but you... Hello! Hello! What a Master Zhang who is different, strict with me, and lenient with me!"

This man learned to the emperor's words, even his tone was vivid. The emperor's angry words could not be made public. Those who could know this or even hear this sentence with their own ears were only people in the palace. In this way, the identity of this person with a white face and no beard was revealed. He came from the palace.

Qi Jiguang's lips trembled and said, "Your Majesty is too mean to Mr. Taiyue. No one is perfect. Mr. Taiyue cares about the world, worrying about the country and the people, repelling turbidity and returning the clear, removing dirt, and serving the court and the people. Throughout history, how many people have made merits like him?

As for the better life of your personal life, it is understandable. As your Majesty’s teacher, Mr. Taiyue has stricter requirements for Your Majesty. It is not deliberately artificial or hypocritical, but as a teacher, he always has higher requirements for students. Just like a parent, even if he can’t do it himself, he hopes that his children will do better than he himself.”

The white-faced man sarcastically said coldly: "As a parent? All over the world, is it a king's minister! A minister puts himself at the height of the emperor's parents. When this true dragon is sober and realizes what he controls, how can he not regard it as a great humiliation?"

: The first day of 2015, the first day of the New Year, I wish you a happy new year and sincerely ask for the guaranteed monthly ticket for the New Year!
