Chapter 64 Harmony
When Zhuo Ya and Tang Wu were having fun, Liu Qi, Mitt and Danff were watching. First, the two girls were having fun, and they were not easy to interfere. Second, it was also pleasing to watching the two beautiful girls fight, right? Anyway, there was at least midnight, so there was no hurry.
"To be honest," Tang Wu leaned against the wall and said while gasping: "Zhuo Ya, are you going to Thunder Ye Town next year?"
"What should Zhuoya go to Saiye Town to do?" Mit asked.
"You really don't know?" Tang Wu glanced at Mitt.
"I don't know." Mitt shook his head.
"Zhuo Ya, it's time to get married." Tang Wu said with a smile.
"Are you going to get married?" Liu Qi asked, "Is the partner Tong Jian?"
Zhuo Ya's face turned red again, but he nodded and said, "He is a partner with my uncle to do business. My uncle said he has a good character. I looked at him again and agreed. He decided to get married next year."
"I remember his family is in Suye Town, right? Why don't you find a local good man? It's easy for you to go home to visit your parents." Liu Qi said again.
'What do you ask about this? Is it interesting to me?' Zhuo Yaben wanted to make a joke, but he was worried that anyone who was present was not strict and would make Tong Jian unhappy him, so he swallowed it. The status of women in the Tang Dynasty was of course much higher than that of later dynasties, but men were superior to women. How to play royal aristocrats was the business of royal aristocrats. The reputation of ordinary women is still very important, and they cannot be misunderstood.
"My second uncle said that Suiye Town and Yuluzhou are not far away. They are businessmen who can often interact in two places and go home to see their parents in the future. In addition, Tong Jian has a good character and cannot find such a person in Yuluzhou for the time being..." Zhuo Ya's voice became lower and lower, and in the end he could hardly hear it.
"Zhuo Ya, I will miss you when you go to Luzhou." Tang Wu said with a red eyes and leaning against Zhuo Ya. No matter how joking they grew up together, although they had conflicts, they were just trivial matters and had a good relationship. Tang Wu thought that when Zhuo Ya went to Suye Town in the future, she might not be able to see Zhuo Ya once a year, and she felt sad. Not only her, but Mit and Danff were also a little sad.
Only Liu Qi is not sad. Of course, this is not because he has a long relationship with Zhuo Ya, although they are not particularly familiar with each other. Liu Qi himself can't stay in Yuluzhou for long, and in the future he may stay in Yuluzhou and Suiye Town for a longer time; not to mention that by the end of the year or the beginning of next year, he will lead troops to the Central Plains to quell the rebellion, and they will never see them anywhere.
However, in order not to appear unsociable, Liu Qi also pretended to be sad. Although he was only four or five years older than the other people, he had much more experience and of course they would not see it.
The rest of the night was almost the little things that happened to Zhuo Ya from childhood to adulthood. Zhuo Ya actually had to go to Suiye Town for a few months, but who remembers who came to the atmosphere? Even Zhuo Ya thought she was going to Suiye soon, and kept talking to several people. Others told her childhood embarrassing things, and she immediately told the other party about her embarrassing things. Even Liu Qi recalled an embarrassing thing that happened when he first came to Luzhou, which made Tang Wu, who had never heard of, laugh at him.
But in the end, Zhuo Ya cried. She actually couldn't bear to give up her playmates since she was a child. In addition, she was going to leave her hometown for more than ten years to go to a strange place, and she didn't worry about it, and the two thoughts combined together finally made her cry.
"Stop crying! When I have the chance in the future, I will go to Thunder Ye Town to see you." Tang Wu said hurriedly.
"We will also go to Thunderbolt Town to see you when we have the chance." Mitt and Danff also said.
"You don't need to comfort me." Zhuo Ya wiped his tears and said, "Tang Wu, I won't talk about you in the future. Mit and Danfu will not be able to see me unless they go to the Fan Kingdom in the west and pass by Suye Town."
"Only the brother of the Liu family," Zhuo Ya turned his head and said to Liu Qi: "As a high-ranking official, it is very likely that he will be a temporary businessman or sent to Suiye Town to be an official. Therefore, I can only count on the brother of the Liu family to see me when I have free time in the future."
"If I go to Suiye Town, I will definitely go to see you and your husband." Liu Qi didn't know that she simply wanted to meet an acquaintance after marriage or to establish connections for her future husband's family; but no matter what Zhuo Ya thought, he didn't care.
Everyone talked for a while and it was already the beginning of Yin. Although there were still people setting off firecrackers at this time, they were also sparse. Moreover, Zhuo Ya and others were also sleepy. Tang Wu and Zhuo Ya went to her boudoir together to rest for a night. Of course, Liu Qi and the other three went back to their respective homes. Before leaving, Liu Qi put out the kang and brazier.
The gate of Zhang Hu's house was not locked. Liu Qi gently pushed it open and wanted to rest in the room where he lived on weekdays, but he saw that the lights were still on in the next room. He gently pushed open the door and saw that it was Cen Shen who was studying and asked, "Why are you not sleeping yet?"
"I am old and can't fall asleep easily if I miss the time, so I get up and read." Cen Shen put down the book and welcomed him in and said.
"Where are you saying you want to have a chat with those children all night?" he asked again.
"They were all sleepy, and the firecrackers were much less. They went home to sleep. But the students also missed the time and couldn't fall asleep. The gentleman talked to me for a while?" Liu Qi said.
"Okay." Cen Shen sat back on the edge of the kang. Liu Qi hurriedly sat on the chair.
"Sir, the student suddenly felt much more relieved about the relationship between the Han people and Turkic people in Anxi just now." Liu Qi said.
"What? You even talked about this?" Cen Shen was a little surprised. It would be fine if Liu Qi talked about this with other officials. How could a few children from ordinary teenagers still care about national affairs?
"No." Liu Qi said roughly that they had a lot of talk, saying: "Zhuo Ya and Mite were both Turkic people, and they were pure-blooded Turks. Their ancestors had never had any blood with the Han people. But they were so natural when talking about Fan Kingdom, and they completely regarded themselves as just like the Han people."
"I'm not to be hiding it. The students were almost no less than the Han people because there were too many Turks in Anxi, and they lived with the Han people. They were a little worried about the Tang Dynasty's rule in Anxi, and were worried that they would rebel when there was a turmoil in the Central Plains. But after hearing Zhuo Ya's words, the students were no longer worried."
"You shouldn't be worried at all." Cen Shen said: "The court has always treated Han Fan equally. There are many foreigners who serve the Tang Dynasty. When Emperor Taizong passed away, there were even generals who died. There was no need to worry about them rebelling because they were aliens. If they rebel, it was because the court's oppression was too heavy."
Liu Qi did not speak up. After all, he came from a world with a strong national concept and could not fully accept the idea of "regardless of Han Chinese, he is a subject" in the Tang Dynasty.
He just nodded, then changed the topic and asked Cen Shen: "Sir, have you ever heard of something called gunpowder in Central Plains?"
