The True Story: The Scroll of the Wind Chapter 5 The Seven Generals of Taichen
The scarlet-clothed young man sat there arrogantly, propped up his head on the food table with his elbows, and stared at Nangong Huiyue with longing eyes, and said approvingly: "Presumably this is the Oiran Nangong Huiyue of Lanxifang, if you really have a flower and a moon appearance, it is not in vain that I came here." Behind him, the servant was not interested in this at all, and only cared about eating wine and eating meat there, and his behavior was somewhat vulgar.
At this time, the two Tsing Yi maids who were blocking outside the door stepped forward, nodded to Yu Linglong, and explained: "Mom, these two guests insist on breaking in, and we really have nothing to do. ”
"I see, you wait and step aside. Then Yu Linglong kneeled forward and said to them respectfully: "If there is any inconsiderate hospitality, please explain it here." ”
"I came all the way from Rinzhou, but I was turned away by your people, how can my mother explain?"
"I see. It stands to reason that there are guests who come from afar and should be treated preferentially. It's just that the son doesn't know, and the rules in the market have always been to count cards to meet customers, all depending on the minds of the top cards. Even if it is a wealthy giant like Yan Daguan and Jiang Gongzi, this is also the case. If the son doesn't give up, the old man will call some smart singers and dancers to come and serve, I don't know what you think?"
"No, it doesn't. The young man in scarlet clothes said categorically: "My Wang is rarely interested, and he is naturally determined to win." If you can't get your wish today, you will turn your Lanxifang upside down. ”
The Wang family is a famous family in Rinzhou, and its head is one of the seven generals of Taichen, and he is quite powerful in the court. If this person is well-dressed, he will be born extraordinary. If he turns against him because of this, I am afraid that the business of Fengyue Villa in Rinzhou will also be hindered. Why don't you take a step back and fix it. Jiang Tao thought like this in his heart, and suddenly proposed to him: "In this case, why don't you order someone to add a seat here, and your Excellency will listen to the music and watch the dance here with us?"
"Who are you who deserve to be compared to me?" replied the young man in scarlet.
After hearing this, Yan Xingkong's two gray-white eyebrows rose up, and he scolded angrily: "It's simply unreasonable! ”
"So what? Hugh, who is old and immortal, must be noisy, or he will not even know how he died. The young man in scarlet clothes suddenly got up and stepped forward, pulled the sleeve of Eizuki's coat and walked out, and said fearlessly: "I'm going to take Oiran away today, but I want to see who dares to stop me." ”
Seeing this person so arrogant and unruly, Jiang Tao couldn't help but wrinkle his eyebrows. At this time, Jiang Changyi got up and stepped forward, leaned forward slightly, slowly drew his sword out of its sheath, and said coldly: "Please let go of my young lady, otherwise Hugh will be rude." ”
The young man in scarlet clothes looked at each other silently, his expression uncertain. His servant then got up and left the table, and looked at Jiang Changyi with disgust. Yu Linglong saw that the opportunity was inappropriate, and hurriedly ordered Yiwuji to go out and invite the city lord of Lianyue, who was listening to the music in the wall, to administer justice.
Huiyue hurriedly waved her sleeves, broke free from the scarlet-clothed young man's hand, and immediately stepped forward to stop it: "Ayi, hurry up and put down the sword, I'll just play a tune for them in the past, why use force because of this?" However, Jiang Changyi put her aside, stared at them without squinting, and replied: "This is a fight between men, so Miss will leave it alone." There is long-term righteousness here, and no one can act recklessly here. ”
"Bold minion, do you know who you are pointing your sword at?" Teng Yi suddenly shouted at him.
"No matter who you are, you can't let Miss be wronged anyway. ”
"Childe, what should I do with this person?" Teng Yi looked at him unkindly, and immediately turned around and asked. But the scarlet-clad young man turned around and sat down, lifted up his naked coat and lifted the bottle, letting the crystal wine sway in it, and commanded, "Since this little brother is not self-sufficient, you should accompany him through the tricks." ”
Later, I saw Jiang Changyi swinging his sword and stabbing at the other party, while Na Tengyi pressed the tip of his claw against the blade of the sword, as if he was at ease and calm. The young man in scarlet clothes sat on the ground, munching on the ox roast in his mouth, watching the fight between them with great interest. Seeing this, the rest of the dancers in the private room left in a hurry with the guests, lest they would be affected by the pond fish in this dispute. Only Nangong Huiyue and Mozi watched worriedly from the sidelines, but they couldn't help.
Aragaki Yukiharu took the wine jug from Yu Linglong's hand, slowly walked towards the scarlet-clothed young man, knelt beside him and poured the wine, and persuaded: "If the son doesn't give up, let the slave family accompany you here to eat a few more glasses of wine." ”
"It's rare that there is such an understanding girl in Lanxifang. The young man in scarlet clothes suddenly raised his hand, brushed the back of his hand against her cheek, and said, "But beauty, why are you trembling all over, as if I was going to eat you." Xingchun stroked his long sideburns and said with a smile: "Childe said that he was joking, but the slave family just felt a little cold." After hearing this, the young man in scarlet clothes suddenly hugged her, picked a cherry from the plate and fed it to her, and asked, "Is it still cold like this?"
"Thank you, Childe, the slave family feels better. Aragaki Yukiharu sat up straight on the mat, brushed the hanging green silk with his other hand, pinned them behind his ear, and continued to persuade: "If the prince asks them to stop, what's the point of this fight?"
"That's easy. The young man in scarlet clothes immediately ordered: "Teng Yi, the beauty said that you are boring to fight." Why don't you show people your hands, so they know what you're up to. ”
Seeing the smile on the face of the young man in scarlet clothes disappear suddenly, Fuji Yi no longer showed mercy to his subordinates after understanding it. Then I saw him quickly turn sideways, avoiding the sword that came from the upper right, and suddenly flashed in front of Jiang Changyi and the two palms were staggered, and the opponent's slender arm like green bamboo was broken, and the long sword in his hand immediately fell to the ground. For a while, Jiang Changyi gritted his teeth in pain, so he had to pull out his right arm and step back.
However, Fuji Yi did not give up on his laurels, but picked up his sword and chased after him. After seeing this, Nangong Huiyue screamed and stepped forward, but it was too late. The stabbing knife had already pierced Jiang Changyi's chest, and he suddenly collapsed to the ground.
The blood poured out on the mat, and Etsuki clutched the bubbling wound for him, shouting with tears in her eyes, "Ayi should cheer up a little, and someone will come to save you soon." Then she commanded the stunned Momo, "Go and find a doctor." ”
Mozi suddenly came back to his senses and hurriedly ran towards the lattice door. But it doesn't help at all. The sword had pierced his heart, causing him to die as he fell to the ground.
After seeing this, Yan Xingkong suddenly got up, and shouted at the scarlet-clothed young man with angry eyes: "You are so bold, you dare to commit blatant murder." Emperor Daozhi once decreed that the people of Yunzhou are also the people of Taichen, and no monster is allowed to commit the crime of the Ten Commandments here. Even if it is a nobleman, it is unforgivable. The old man is going to the city lord's mansion to sue you, and you can't escape the involvement even if you have great powers. ”
"Fuji Yi, this time it's really you who are wrong. I'm just trying to let you bluff him, and it's not a big deal. A cynical smile appeared on the corner of the scarlet-clothed young man's mouth again, and said, "Now that old man wants to make trouble in the city lord's mansion, what should he do?" ”
Immediately afterward, a middle-aged man in his fifties came in a hurry, and after stepping through the door, his expression changed slightly, and he asked, "What the hell is going on?" But I saw that this person was wearing a scarlet robe and a black gauze hat on his head, and a silver fish bag was tied to the green jade belt carved with cloud patterns.
He is the grandson of Xu Sheng, the last king of the Yue Kingdom, and was canonized as the lord of Lianyue City by Emperor Daozhi after returning to the imperial court. Yan Xingkong got up and stepped forward to greet him, and said to him: "Lord of the city, this guy is letting Hu obey the grass and ignoring people's lives, and I hope you will uphold justice for us." ”
However, when the man looked at the young man in scarlet clothes sitting in front of him, he hurriedly bowed to him and said, "Xiaguan Xu Shenrong, see the Seven Generals." ”
It was one stone that stirred up a thousand waves, and everyone looked sideways at the young man in scarlet clothes.
Since the accession to the throne of the Daozhi Emperor Dugu Hong, he has successively canonized seven famous generals and ordered them to defend one side. Moreover, their status in the court is second only to the three princes of Taichen, who represent the head of the civil and military officials, that is, the Great Sima, the Great Xiangguo and the National Teacher. Although the thirteen cities of Yunzhou were autonomous places, they still needed to submit to them in name. However, who would have expected that the scarlet-clothed young man in front of him, who seemed to be a gentleman, was Wang Yu, the powerful seventh general in the Taichen Kingdom.
"I didn't expect that Lord Xu would also come to this land of wind and moon. The young man in scarlet clothes suddenly said, "But you have come just in time, and I am about to go and explain to you." We are eating and drinking here, but Jiang Changyi is confused, but he wants to come and compete with me. Naturally, I won't bully the weak, so I let Fuji Yi fight for me. Unexpectedly, his skills were not as good as others, but he used force against these girls. Teng Yi was also in a hurry, so he accidentally injured his life. ”
"Do you have anything to say?" Xu Shenrong, the city lord of Lianyue, looked around at everyone, but the others were silent about this, for fear of causing an unwarranted disaster to themselves. Seeing that they were still silent, Xu Shenrong slowly turned his head away and proposed to Yu Linglong: "Since the deceased is from Lanxi Fang, the old man is willing to give a hundred taels of gold, and bother my mother to handle this matter properly, how about it?"
"But it is up to the city lord to decide, and the old man has no objection. Yu Linglong leaned over slightly and replied. Yan Xingkong twisted his snow-white beard with his hand, and echoed in a normal way: "That's very good, that's what the old man meant." Jiang Taoyi raised his eyes and glanced at him, scoffing at this.
And Nangong Huiyue nodded silently to thank the guest, pulled the foam to stand up, and slowly walked towards the paper door. Teng Yi hurriedly stepped forward to block her way, and said, "It's rare for the general to appreciate, don't know how to lift." ”
"The slave family is not feeling well, and I am afraid that I will not be able to accompany him here. Nangong Huiyue turned her back to the young man in scarlet, and tears suddenly flashed in the corners of her eyes. At this time, Teng Yi suddenly saw Wang Yu raise his hand to signal, and had to suppress the anger in his heart and retreat.
"Since Miss Emitsu is deeply unwell, it is naturally inconvenient to stay in the lower seat. Wang Yu threw down the silver bottle and said happily: "It's just that my patience is very limited, and I hope the girl will do it herself." ”
After hearing this, she quietly took Mozi's arm and left the private room without looking back. After that, Yan Xingkong and Lianyue City Lord excused themselves to catch up with the old days, and they also retired one after another.
"I've had enough of this wine, so let's go. Wang Yu put his arm around Xingchun's shoulders and stood up, staggering outside. Yu Linglong stepped forward and asked, "The Seven Generals, Lord Slow, where are you going to take her?"
"Where else can I go, naturally I will go back to Rinzhou with me. ”
"The rule in Lanxifang has always been to sell your art, not your body, and I'm afraid that the general's move is inappropriate. Yu Linglong suddenly persuaded: "If people with ulterior motives use this to spread rumors and slander the general's forced abduction of people's daughters in Yunzhou, it will not only damage the general's prestige, but also may anger Long Yan." ”
"It's still my mother who thinks about it. Wang Yu instructed: "Teng Yi, order someone to take some money from the house." I wonder if 10,000 taels of gold is enough to redeem Miss Xingchun's death deed?"
"Since the general has opened his mouth, how can the old body have any objection?" Yu Linglong stared helplessly at Aragaki Yukiharu in front of her, and then leaned down towards them. However, at this time, Jiang Taoyu suddenly mustered up the courage to say: "Even if the general redeems himself for Xingchun, he must always ask her opinion." ”
"If you dare to be a wishful person, will there be many people who will come to find it?" Wang Yu turned his head, stroked Xingchun's cheek, and said: "Well, from now on, you will be free again, and it is up to you whether you follow me or not." It's just that once I'm very angry, there will be nine points of rudeness, and Wangqing must consider it carefully. Wang Yu suddenly glanced at Qiu Na, who was drunk there, a subtle smile rippled on his face, and then folded his sleeves and turned away.
Yukiharu Aragaki wrung his fingers together, looking back at his sister Akina with tears like pear blossoms and rain, but finally followed. In his spare time, Jiang Tao sat there alone and burst into tears, pouring the pot of sorrowful wine in his heart.
