The morning light was dim, Shou'an City was still sleeping, and the side door of the government office's back house opened gently.
Soon, the team returning to Beijing snaked out of the door.
Shengyuan and Anyu originally had a lot of luggage, but in order not to affect the speed of their return to Beijing, they chose to exchange most of it for silver, bought a farm and a shop, and donated it to the Jiats Hall in the city, so that there would be more people for the elderly, weak and disabled in the city. Some reliance.
Therefore, when they returned to Beijing from this trip, their team configuration was extremely simple: dozens of guards and a few carriages.
"They say that being an official for thousands of miles is just for money. It's a good thing for us. When we came, there were many carriages and horses, and when we returned, everything was simple." Anyu got on the carriage and looked at the simple and neat team, and couldn't help but sigh.
If it was according to his preference, he would mainly ride on horseback this time, but he was afraid that Shengyuan would gallop faster in order to catch up with the journey, so he simply gave up his horse and got into a carriage.
Sheng Yuan stood in front of the car and looked at the mansion where she had lived for several months again.
She has been here less than a year, but she has experienced more things than she did in Kyoto in several years.
"Today's people don't see the ancient moon, but today's moon once illuminated the ancients." Suddenly, such a line of poetry came to her mind that seemed unlikely to be written at all.
Anyu listened, but tasted some of her feelings, and couldn't help but sigh: "Before we came, Shou'an City was thriving here; when we came, Shou'an City was still standing here quietly; after we left, This Shouan City will still stand safe and sound for a long time.
Sister Yuan, tell me, after this thousand years, if Shou'an City is still there, if there are descendants standing in front of this government mansion like us, well... just standing where we are, feeling the morning breeze. Wind, looking at the ancient brick wall road.
Do you think they will have feelings for a moment? Will they remember that a thousand years ago, there was such a young, talented and capable female governor who, together with her handsome, smart and smart fiancé, worked hard for this city? ! "
"Maybe? Who knows!" Sheng Yuan sighed sadly, "Although the history books are long, those who have been honored can only leave a few lines of records. With only a few numbers, who can know the full details of that time?"
"..." Anyu's original emotion suddenly disappeared after hearing what Sheng Yuan said.
He looked at Sheng Yuan cautiously for a few times and asked her tentatively: "Sister Yuan, do you even want to rhyme with your emotions?"
"..." As soon as these words came out, all Sheng Yuan's emotions disappeared.
Sheng Yuan was speechless, glanced at Anyu angrily, and jumped into the car.
…
"It's so quiet on the street today!" The carriage rumbled forward. Anyu opened the curtains and looked out, looking up at the sky. "When the sun comes out, it will definitely be a sunny day again...According to the past, this Soon, vendors should be coming out one after another to set up stalls!"
"You are talking about the East Market. Since our Shou'an City started to strictly enforce the entry and exit system, the street leading out of the city is not so lively early! Everyone waits for the sun to come out and go out half an hour before the city gate opens."
Cheng Dong was accompanying him outside the car. When he heard what Anyu said, he couldn't help but tell him the truth.
"So that's it." Anyu nodded suddenly. Since he left the capital, he rarely got up early, so it's understandable that he doesn't know the situation here as well as Chengdong.
As they spoke, the group arrived at the city gate.
Xiaoyao looked at the familiar figures on both sides of the city gate, and his eyes suddenly widened: "Huh? Where are the guards we sent to guard the city? Why did the city be replaced by Cen Fuyin and her maid?"
After hearing this, Sheng Yuan looked outside and saw Cen Youniang standing by the city gate wearing regular clothes.
"Congwei!"
"Wen Zhen!"
Sheng Yuan quickly got out of the car, saluted, and looked at each other holding hands: "Why did you come in person?"
"Yesterday you sent someone to tell me that you wanted to send someone to stay at the city gate to guard the city. I knew you were going to leave quietly." Cen Youniang held Sheng Yuan's hand and signaled the maid to lead someone to open the city gate, "Who knows when you are in an officialdom? When did you drift to where? Wen Zhen and I are separated now, and I’m afraid we don’t know when we will be reunited. How could I miss seeing you off? "
Sheng Yuan held her hand back and smiled: "They say we have to say goodbye after a long journey, but we don't have to catch up too much. Even if we can't see each other day and night in the future, as long as we communicate with each other, we can see each other like words. meet."
"What Wen Zhen said is absolutely true." Cen Youniang chuckled and nodded, looking at the city gate that was gradually opening, and motioned Sheng Yuan to follow, "However, you and I met in the same year, so we have letters to express our love for each other, but others don't have this convenience. , this time of farewell, I don’t know when we will meet again, Wen Zhen, you shouldn’t have resigned and left without saying hello.”
"Ah?" Sheng Yuan looked at Cen Youniang with some confusion, not sure why she said this.
"Here, look ahead." Cen Youniang shook her head slightly at her, motioning her to look outside the city gate.
