Chapter 3: The Shocking Change of Hailan (6)
One
It was already the middle of the night when Han Wen returned to Chunhe Building, and the wine street was on the east side, but Chunhe Building was in the opposite direction. The www.biquge.info couldn't afford to rent a carriage, so she had to run all the way back to her room. When she went upstairs, Chun Helou's annoying Xiao Er reminded her that the deposit was about to expire, and if she hadn't paid the room fee for two more days, she and Xiao Shi would be driven out of the store.
She has no job, no salary, where can she find money to pay for her living expenses, is it possible that she will conjure gold out of thin air?
Penniless, the end of life is to be looked at and ignored by the great beauty. Xiao Shi didn't get the candy he expected, and his attitude towards Wenwen was cold and indifferent. Wenwen complained in her heart, she had no choice, she had no money or a car, where to buy candy to eat. I don't know if tomorrow's meal has been settled, since Xiao Shi dislikes the Green Buddha tea cakes in Chunhe Building, the shopkeeper has never sent them free tea and snacks, even if they do, Xiao Shi will pour it into the trash bin with a disgusted face, and she won't let her taste it. She felt desperate for such a day, more bitter than when she first came to ancient times.
Wenwen suddenly thought of those people on Da Yin's side, she didn't say goodbye, I don't know if it scared them?
Xiao Shi was standing next to him, and as soon as he finished staring at someone with his white eyes, he found that someone was stared at not only lifeless, but lying on the window in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.
I don't know how long I stood there, the temperature gradually got colder, and Wenwen shivered: "It's too late, Xiao Shi, let's sleep." Without waiting for Xiao Shi's reaction, she dragged it to the bed, picked off her coat indiscriminately, and stripped off only a white blouse and skirt, she found that there were strange eyes staring at her, looking up, Xiao Shi was expressionless, and her eyes were sharp as she had never seen before, staring straight at her.
"What's wrong?" Wenwen's undressing action froze, and he also looked at Xiao Shi, feeling a little up.
Xiao Shi had never looked at her like this, even if she wanted to force her to be as coarse as herself, he just glared at her a few times angrily. How can there be such a thing as now, Xiao Shi's sharp gaze shines through, as if he is chasing something that has been carefully concealed.
"If you don't sleep, I'll sleep. Today I'm going to sleep outside. Wenwen took a breath and calmed his heartbeat that was a little frightened just now. Without saying a word, he lifted the quilt, curled up inside, faced inside, carried Xiao Shi on his back, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
The room was quiet, the candle flame was blown by the wind flowing in from the window, and the candle tears formed a crystal film on the stage. Xiao Shi stood on the side of the bed, motionless, firmly looking at the person with his head and face covered on the bed, his eyes were less sharp and more profound, and the corners of his lips contained a mysterious smile.
In the same night sky, in different places, different people are naturally in different situations.
Two
Some people worry about their livelihood, some people are sleepy because of shadows, and some people have a headache because they have a lot of money.
Han Liangxue is indeed rich, but there is a lot of money and a lot of things. In the past few days, I have been unable to sleep steadily, and I have a headache about money. Since Lao Jiang responded to her deal with the proprietress of Chunhe Building, he chattered a few words almost every day when he saw her, and what he said was nothing more than a few words...... "Don't make any deal with people in the future, cause trouble", "The people in the mall are very shrewd, Miss You will definitely suffer a big loss when you first get involved", "But suffering a loss is a curse and a blessing, Miss must learn a lesson well, don't be deceived" and many other chattering and preaching, which made her brain hurt and her ears rang. So much so that as soon as she saw Lao Jiang, she avoided him, and even ran away to hide when she saw it from a distance. Once, Duan Qianyan, who was recuperating from his injuries, looked at Xiaoxue and seemed to avoid Lao Jiang, laughed happily, and ridiculed her for being too bold, even an old man was afraid of being like this.
Xiaoxue hates him the most, always laughing at himself all the time, and scolds back angrily: "You have the courage and ability to leave here, find your enemy, don't rely on me to eat and drink." ”
"That's not good, I'm an injured person, and I raised you for three months in vain, so you treat your benefactor like this?" Duan Qianyan sat casually on the railing by the corridor, grabbing a handful of melon seeds in his hand, and he didn't look like he was half personable.
Xiaoxue was so angry with him that she jumped to her feet: "White-eyed wolf!
Duan Qianyan was amused by her: "Girl, how can the injured not be lazy to eat! Besides, you still owe me half a year's dinner." ”
At the beginning, she fell from the sky, stepped on his lunch, and destroyed the food he had finally made with the fruits of the mountains and fields to fill his stomach, he was very angry, and wanted to kill the anger, but when he saw that she was a woman, he had no idea of killing, so he arrested her and stayed with him in the deep mountains and old forests, and asked her to cook for him for a year to compensate for his loss of lunch on the grounds of a year.
Now it's good that he was injured and let her take care of him, but instead scolded him for being a white-eyed wolf.
"I heard your grandfather say that your family is a good family that keeps its promises, and the one-year meal is not due yet, so you can continue to cook for me. ”
Xiaoxue listened to his brazen words, and became even more angry: "A year? Are you crazy? Do you want to stay with me for half a year?"
"Why not?" he continued.
"Despicable!" Xiaoxue was so provoked by his shameless words that she could only curse. "You sinister villain, sooner or later, this girl will accept you on behalf of God. ”
Duan Qianyan chuckled silently. She crossed her hands on her hips and scolded the spittle, and the appearance of Xingzi splashing on the ground and not stopping really made him laugh. When she was tired of scolding, he spoke: "What about your grandfather? Why don't you see his old man to teach you." ”
Usually at this time, the white-haired and bearded old man will chase after the girl, preaching bitterly.
"How many times have I said that he is not my grandfather. Xiaoxue gave Duan Qianyan a slap in the face. "The county magistrate doesn't know what to smoke crazy, summoning the business giants in Dongzi to talk about what meeting, Lao Jiang went out early in the morning, how can he have time to wait for me. ”
"General Assembly?" Duan Qianyan squinted, not knowing what he was thinking in his mind, he asked, "Is it related to Xinghai Moon Tower?"
"You know?" Xiao Xue was taken aback, and then realized that she had asked a stupid question, a ship as big as Xinghai Yuelou, no one in the Dongzi area knew about it, he had been here for almost a month, and he already knew it. "I don't know what's going on, Lao Jiang has been busy these days, and he didn't say anything when asked, only said that it was in the mall, and told me not to interfere. She paused, scratched her head and thought for a while, and continued: "There are a lot of things in the Central Plains, and I don't know what the emperor here thinks. ”
"Half a month ago, there was a once-in-a-century storm on the sea, and Xinghai Yuelou was forced to postpone, so I had to return to Dongzi to reorganize and wait for sailing. Duan Qianyan walked out of the corridor and moved to Xiaoxue. "Such a big storm, the ship can't be intact, even if it is intact, the resources on the ship for half a moon at sea have been used more or less, and after coming back, it is natural to levy resources, of course, the goods of these famous business giants must be collected, anyway, Dongzi is the territory of Southern Chu, and it is no one else's business for their emperor to find the elixir. ”
Xiaoxue shook her head and sighed with emotion: "There is no immortality in this world, there was no before, there is no now, and there will be no future generations." ”
After hearing this, Duan Qianyan said in a deep voice: "You girl sometimes always says something that does not match her age, but now that you have heard this, it makes me feel that you are an old woman who has grown up for a long time." ”
"What nonsense!" Xiao Xue shouted at him, "I'm only seventeen this year, and I haven't arrived yet, where is an old woman, blind." ”
He crossed his arms and smiled at the corner of his lips: "I haven't married anyone at seventeen, and I'll become an old girl when I'm eighteen, and I can't marry an old girl." ”
"You have to take care of it!" Xiao Xue looked at him with red cheeks and wide eyes. The young man in front of him is black-haired and dressed in black clothes, his face is like jade, handsome and handsome, he is obviously a handsome character, but he has an arrogant personality, acts aggressively, and his mouth is so poisonous that people can't help but want to strangle him. It's the same now, as long as he speaks, she wants to kill. Why did she meet him? Xiaoxue asked herself countless times under such a night sky.
"I've just read a lot of miscellaneous travels, and I'm a little awake to the sophistication of people, past and present lives, I can't think thoroughly!" she lowered her head, and she didn't have the confidence to defend herself, for fear that someone would find out something, but this kind of thief-like appearance made the people in front of her suspicious of her. "Who the hell are you?" he asked.
"Didn't I say it, I'm just the daughter of a merchant, and I have no father or mother in the family, only one sister. How can you ask clearly?"
"Hukou?" Duan Qianyan raised his eyebrows and continued to delve into: "What is Hukou?"
This girl has a lot of strange words.
Xiaoxue blinked, turned her head in annoyance and scolded herself: "I'm so stupid, I'm about to say it for a while." ”
"What are you muttering?" Seeing that she turned her head away and didn't look at herself, Duan Qianyan was a little displeased.
Xiaoxue turned her head and smiled at Yan Yan, "Duan Dagongzi, didn't I say it, I have read a lot of miscellaneous books, so I will naturally say something you don't understand, this is all a local dialect, why should you be more serious, don't be so small." ”
Duan Qianyan stared at Xiaoxue without saying a word, his face expressionless, making it impossible to see what he was thinking.
After a while, he snorted, "I'm too lazy to pay attention to you dead girl." When he had said that, he turned around and went into the house, but he asked someone to pull on his sleeve. "What's the matter?" he looked back coldly at the bold dead girl.
"You haven't made it clear to me yet. Xiaoxue tugged at her sleeves and looked at him seriously.
He was puzzled: "What do you know?"
"Nanchu!" Xiaoxue exclaimed excitedly: "Didn't you say that Dongzi is the territory of Southern Chu, then who is the emperor of Southern Chu?"
Xiao Xue's question made him choke up for a while, and he looked at her in disbelief, looking at her like a fool. After a long time, he whispered: "You are really not a fool, even a wild girl in the countryside knows the name of Emperor Yuan Jing." ”
"Oh, didn't I say it, I used to stay in Dayin. Where have you ever been to the Central Plains, the first time you have come to the Central Plains, of course you don't know anything!" Xiaoxue shook his sleeves and didn't give up: "Do you want to tell me clearly!"
"Speak. He shook off his hateful little hands without moving, dusted off his clothes, and said in a loud voice: "The current emperor of Southern Chu is Emperor Shangyuan of Yuanjing, he is the thirty-seventh king of Southern Chu, and he is known as the virtuous lord. During the 30 years of his reign, the people of Southern Chu were indeed happy and comfortable. If you look at the prosperity of Dongzi, you can understand how successful he is in governing the country and the world. But the only pity is that this virtuous lord is as lustful as the barbarians of the ancient temple country, since he ascended the throne, the harem has accepted countless beautiful concubines, more than the concubines of the kings of the past dynasties, it can be said that it is the first in Southern Chu. ”
"Too ...... It's outrageous. Xiaoxue was dumbfounded when she heard this, "A generation of virtuous lords is actually a womanizer. How did this make the historians of later generations write about him, is it difficult to write 'Emperor Yuanjing's merits are better than the sky, concubines and concubines are the same as the sky, the harem is a unique in the world, and the beauty of the world is enjoyed by one person'?"
Duan Qianyan was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but tap her head. "Where did you get your whims. I'm afraid the only thing in the world can say this about him is you, a bold dead girl. Actually, what you said is not bad, he is indeed ridiculous in terms of women, and he is a wise lord in other things. ”
Xiao Xue tilted her head, her little face was suffocated, and it took a while before she mustered up the courage to ask him, "Emperor Yuan Jing shouldn't be a eunuch, right?"
These words successfully made Duan Qianyan's face change, his eyes widened, and his legs twitched a few times by her earth-shattering words, and it took a long time to calm down the waves in his chest, and asked, "Why do you think so?"
She raised her head and was serious: "You see, if he is not a eunuch, then why does he accept so many women as concubines, he must be afraid that others will know the secret that he is a eunuch, so he marries so many women to cover up his physical defects." ”
Duan Qianyan was speechless, and looked at Xiaoxue in a daze, unable to speak for a long time.
I don't know how long it took, and I don't know how long Xiaoxue spoke, until the quiet night sky, a touch of fish white appeared in the sky, and the sound of cicadas and insects began to sound in the cold weather, Duan Qianyan said: "You are the only one in the world who can think that Emperor Yuan Jing is a eunuch." If you really want to know why he is a concubine and why he is lustful, you might as well ask him about the old man or his son. ”
"Really, he has a son?" Xiao Xue was surprised, how could a eunuch have a son?
Duan Qianyan physically supported his forehead, "It's true, his son is called Huang Yuan, and there is another son named Huang Li." ”
"Imperial ...... I know Huang Yuan! Isn't he the fourth son who is famous all over the world!" Xiaoxue clapped her hands excitedly. "It turns out that Huang Yuan is the son of Emperor Yuan Jing, I heard that Huang Yuan is a rare genius in the world, he learned literature at the age of three, practiced martial arts at the age of five, left home at the age of ten to visit the mountains and Bohai Sea alone, and went home at the age of fifteen to fight against the top masters of martial arts, without any defeat, and since then he has been ranked among the world's sons, ranking three of the four sons. ”
"You know him well. ”
Xiaoxue smiled, "It's hard for me to understand, I just don't want to." When I was in Dayin, the reputation of the fourth prince spread to everyone. ”
"The crown prince of Dayin is also the fourth son, and he is also the top of the list. Duan Qianyan half-squinted, carefully observing Xiaoxue's expression.
Xiao Xue stroked the hair in front of her forehead, and snorted disdainfully: "Jun Bai is also the fourth son? Calling him a genius is simply an insult to the word, isn't it just that he looks good, it is necessary to pass on his god." ”
"You seem to hate Junbai very much?"
"No, not a nuisance. It's the kind of disgusting thing to see rats and cockroaches, and he's disgusting. Xiong Aoxue scoffed. "I've met him twice before in Dayin, and the first time I saw him, I thought this man wasn't a good person, and the second time I saw him, I knew he was a sinister villain. ”
Duan Qianyan took a step back, looked her up and down, and asked with a curious smile, "You seem to have a lot of whispers about him?"
Her eyes rolled and she smiled at him fakely. "Of course, I've always been dissatisfied with stinky men like hypocrites. ”
"You think I'm also a hypocrite?" Duan Qianyan narrowed his narrow eyes dangerously. The tone is gloomy, but unexpectedly charming.
However, the shrewd Xiaoxue was no longer confused by his appearance, she shrunk her shoulders and didn't know where to look. She regretted that she had provoked him again. "I didn't say anything, you admit it. She took a few steps back. The person in front of her always made her inexplicably oppressive, and she was a little scared. She had seen Duan Qianyan's methods, and there were people who didn't know how to provoke him before, but they didn't end well, she didn't want to be one of the nameless corpses in the wilderness.
The more Duan Qianyan listened, the more displeased he became, his face was gloomy as frost, but he showed a shocking smile. "Come here. He reached out to her.
She kept back, her little face wrinkled and pitiful. "I didn't mean to, why are you so scary!" No matter how good he smiled, the evil aura in his body really scared her.
At this time, the fish white on the horizon became clear, and the ten thousand layers of clouds spread out in all directions one by one, and there were faint gold flashes and jumps on it. The sky was divided into two halves, one light and one dark, and the bright side kept swallowing up the starry sky from the east as if swallowing the whole darkness.
Duan Qianyan saw that Xiaoxue was about to cry, and his heart suddenly relaxed, and a trace of happiness lingered in his heart. He only frowned, threw the thing in the palm of his hand on top of her head, and then leaped upward, turned into light, and flew to the roof with a whoosh, and disappeared into the dawn of the morning sun under her stunned gaze.
After a long time, the quiet courtyard resounded with a roar. "Stinky man, you dare to throw garbage at me!"
It was so hateful that he actually sprinkled the finished melon seed shells on her head, which made her angry.
