Chapter 62: Listening to Books in the Teahouse (I)
Yuan Junyao was stunned there, the warm and soft touch seemed to still stay on his lips, with the aroma of the wine she drank during the banquet just now, making him seem to be drunk. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
His eyes followed her face, and her red cheeks were like red plums in the snow, delicate and bright. The rosy lips pursed slightly, as if he was haunted by what had just happened. Just now, it was these delicate red lips that made him drunk like a dream.
Resisting the urge to taste the delicate lips again, Yuan Junyao deducted two stone bullets from the stone wall and pointed them at the two of them outside, and the two immediately fell softly.
Seeing this, Su Qingluan went out of the crack in the stone cave first, and even quickened his pace when he passed by the two people outside. Yuan Junyao came later, but saw Su Qingluan's footsteps constantly going in the direction of the banquet hall. Touching his lips, he seemed to have an endless aftertaste, and the corners of Yuan Junyao's lips rose.
The main hall of the banquet hall still continued to push the cup and change the lamp, and it was a snake. When Su Qingluan came in, Su Qingsong had already changed a group of people beside him, and seeing that the clothes were also from the Northern Qi royal family, he handed him a look, and Su Qingluan sat back in his place.
About an hour later, the Emperor of Northern Qi returned to the main hall, today is his Halloween, of course, he can't show his face.
After the Emperor of Northern Qi drank a glass of wine, he suddenly said to Su Qing, "Prince Su, the eldest princess of Jing'an is unwell, it is a pity that she can't come this time." I hope that next time I have the opportunity, I can invite the eldest princess of Jing'an to come to Northern Qi as a guest. ”
Although Su Qingsong didn't like the Emperor of Northern Qi to mention Su Qingluan on such an occasion, he still had to pass the scene, stood up and arched his hand and said, "Thank you Emperor Qi for your kindness, next time you have the opportunity, I believe that the imperial sister will also hope to come to Northern Qi as a guest." ”
Su Qingluan in the crowd didn't raise her head but didn't raise her eyebrows, this old man definitely didn't have a good heart when he mentioned her at this time.
The banquet ended with the departure of the Northern Qi Emperor half an hour later, leaving the Northern Qi Palace and returning to the post house, instructing the guards to guard the surroundings, and Su Qingluan and Su Qingsong had a secret conversation in the room. Hearing the news brought by Yuan Junyao, Su Qingsong was shocked and angry, and shouted, "If what King Yuan said is true, then this little country is really ambitious, and he dares to do such a heinous thing to the four countries." Regarding Yuan Junyao's words, Su Qingsong couldn't fully believe it, after all, he was from two countries.
"Don't worry," Su Qingluan patted him on the shoulder, "According to Xiaoyaowei's investigation, the Wa Kingdom has recently had close contacts with Nanchen Gong Xuelian, and with the wolf ambition of the Wa Kingdom, I am afraid that it will not simply help Gong Xuelian, and Nan Chen will go to war with the Wa Kingdom in the near future." Whether this is true or not, the Wa Kingdom will not be at peace for long. ”
On the way here, Su Qingluan had already found an opportunity to tell him about Xiaoyaowei, and decided to wait until Su Qingsong was at the level to return Xiaoyaowei to Qu Zitian. Su Qingsong was very in favor of her taking charge of Xiaoyaowei's affairs, and asked Su Qingluan to hand over Xiaoyaowei to Qu Zitian when he proposed it, and not to tell Qu Zitian about Xiaoyaowei for the time being.
Su Qingluan understood that it might be about Lin Xuan, Qu Zitian's handling method made him have a plan in his heart, Su Qingluan understood his brother's thoughts and temperament, and agreed.
The two talked for a while, and when they saw that it was already over, Su Qingluan returned to his room from Su Qingsong's room, and after a simple freshening, he turned off the lights and lay on the bed to prepare for sleep, but he couldn't fall asleep over and over. Close your eyes, and the casual kiss with Yuan Junyao in the stone cave will appear in front of you, "Damn!" Su Qingluan scolded secretly and simply turned over.
"Damn it, it must have been on purpose. Thinking about it carefully, she didn't reject a kiss that was not a kiss with him, but she felt that it was too unexpected, which caught her off guard, and muttered, "Do you really like that guy?" ”
Putting aside Yuan Junyao's desire to lie back on the bed, after his heart calmed down, sleepiness hit, and he fell asleep after a while.
When I opened my eyes again, it was already dawn on the second day, and when I saw that the hour was already hour, I secretly sighed that I had slept for so long, and at the same time ordered my subordinates to bring hot water and breakfast.
Not long after, a guard came to report that the prince of Northern Qi had invited the prince to the mansion as a guest early in the morning, and the prince had already set off half an hour ago.
Su Qingluan was a little surprised when he heard this, the great prince of Northern Qi had obviously joined forces with Fu Mingxuan, why did he still pull Dajing, did he think that the eldest princess of Jing'an did not come to Northern Qi, which meant that Dajing did not stand on Yuan Junyao's side?
For the battle for the throne of Northern Qi, Dajing will not participate, whether it is the Great Prince or Yuan Junyao.
After breakfast, Su Qingluan secretly sent eight free soul guards to protect Su Qingsong in the Great Prince's Mansion, and then went out of the post house alone. The sky was gray, and there seemed to be a sign of snow, so Su Qingluan picked a teahouse and walked in.
The best places to listen to the news are just these places, restaurants, teahouses, and green houses. There are people from all walks of life in these places, so all kinds of news can be heard. From which concubine the emperor favored, to Zhang San stealing a chicken from Li Si, but how much credibility is in these news, it all depends on what the listener thinks.
Su Qingluan entered the teahouse and came to the second floor, chose a window position and ordered a pot of Biluochun two or three Lindu snacks, that is, you can observe the pedestrians and vendors downstairs, and you can also hear the conversation of everyone in the teahouse.
The second floor of the teahouse is much more elegant than the first floor, and there are more than ten square tables neatly placed on the empty second floor, and there is a long table for storytelling in the innermost. It seems that there are storytellers performing here every day, but it is not yet time, and the storytellers have not yet come, leaving only a table and a lonely place.
At this time, there were not many people in the teahouse, and more than a dozen people sat at three or four tables chatting and laughing with snacks. After about half an hour, an old man over fifty years old came to the teahouse, the old man went up to the second floor of the teahouse and walked straight to the long table, and immediately a shopkeeper sent a cup of tea, the teacup was different from the cup used by the guests, and it should be for the elderly.
Su Qingluan said secretly, it seems that this storyteller is not ordinary, is it possible that in Northern Qi, storytellers have such a status, or what is the origin of this storyteller?
As soon as the storyteller arrived, the more than ten people immediately became excited, it seemed that they were coming for the storyteller, and a young man dressed as a scholar in his early twenties said loudly, "Elder Zhang, you can count it, we have been waiting here for a long time." ”
The young scholar's voice fell, and the rest of the people echoed it, it seemed that they were all hardcore book fans of this old Zhang.
The storyteller known as Zhang Lao smiled when he heard this, "Old decay is a storyteller, it is really a great blessing in life to be able to afford everyone's attention, since everyone has been waiting for a long time, then the decay will start now." ”
The people who listened to the book naturally clapped their hands in welcome, Zhang Lao took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and began to tell the story as soon as he patted the shocked wood.
Before I knew it, the table on the second floor of the teahouse was quickly filled, and it seemed that everyone knew when Zhang Lao was coming, and they all liked to listen to him very much.
"Brother, there's no place elsewhere, can we do it here?"
Su Qingluan looked up, and a white-robed young man of fifteen or sixteen years old was standing next to her with an entourage about the same age as him.
"Of course, feel free. As soon as Su Qingluan heard the voice, he knew that this young man with a jade face was a girl, and the entourage with a delicate face naturally would not be a man.
The white-robed young man heard that Su Qingluan agreed, and hurriedly thanked him and sat down, "Thank you, brother, I didn't expect this teahouse business to be so hot, but fortunately, brother Tai disliked it, so that the little brother had a place to sit." ”
"It's okay, I'm also here to visit, I heard that this Zhang Laoshu is very good, but I didn't expect it to be so popular. Su Qingluan casually talked nonsense, but this old storytelling is so popular, if he says something, I believe these listeners are also convinced.
A burst of applause led Su Qingluan's gaze to Zhang Lao, and the jade-like young man also listened carefully to Zhang Lao's story, and for a while, there was only Zhang Lao's voice on the second floor of the teahouse.
