Volume 1 Lin'an Has a Dragon Sparrow Chapter 34 One Man and One Sword
Once when she was leaving the north, there was also a woman who cared about her and loved him, cried for her, and slowly fed herself to drink water when she had a fever and called herself baby, but all this changed after the fall of the north, the woman who used to love her and another man who would love her gave birth to a boy, and they lived in a village not far from Lin'an City.
She put on the best Chunqun, dressed in the fox fur given to her by Su Nianyu, and bought a lot of New Year's goods to go home to see, along the way she wondered if her father's life would be miserable, and whether she was bullied...... When she walked into the wooden door that was pasted on the blessing, she saw her father and mother who had not seen her for a long time in the corner of the rice wine pile, her face was festive, there was a little boy eating and laughing on the rice wine tank, the man picked up the boy and walked to the back room, "Drink sweet wine!" The rattle in the boy's hand shook and swayed, and she couldn't cry outside the door, so she put the New Year's goods at the door and escaped like a thief. After she walked aimlessly in Lin'an City, the sound of firecrackers came into her ears in an endless stream, she lay on the railing by the Lanqiao, tears could not be stopped, she felt that there was a big hole in her heart, tears were flowing from it, for a long time, a pair of warm hands on her shoulders, she turned around and quietly hugged the woman and cried.
Su Nianyu persuaded her to forget her parents, since they ruthlessly sold her to the Qinglou, naturally they didn't want to see her again, the so-called parents and children were just watching each other's backs drift away, from the moment they watched you walk into the Qinglou, the fate between you has come to an end, you don't have to worry about each other anymore, and then she kissed her lightly on the forehead, and the slightly cool kiss made her temporarily forget the pain and confusion, and once again have a woman who loves her.
"Really?" Chu Xianzhao clenched the scabbard of the Dragon Sparrow Sword, his eyes slowly drooped, and he felt his heart slowly cool.
Lu Yin looked at Chu Xianzhao's face from time to time, with a hint of curiosity, he was different from most of the guests she had seen, most of the men who came here were full of flesh, and their eyes were full of lust, but he would only chat with you quietly, even a little shy, warm as Zeyu, before she met him, she didn't even dare to imagine that someone's eyes were purple, like jewels, covered by long eyelashes.
"Little Yinzi, do you learn to rob my guests now?" Su Nianyu smiled slyly behind their backs, and hugged the two people sitting side by side, with a wet fragrance on her body, which frightened Lu Yin to stand up with a flushed face: "Sister Yu...... I...... No. ”
She gently grabbed Chu Xianzhao's earlobe and smiled: "Not bad, it's rare to see you chatting with guests, it seems that the charm of the third prince of Chu is not less than that of his brother." ”
"Can we talk?" Chu Xuanzhao didn't stop her small movements, and said softly.
"What do you want to talk to me about? I didn't even say a word to the warm building! I walked all the way to the palace and didn't see a single figure!" she let go of her hand and clasped her hands around her chest.
"Go to your room, we'll talk privately. Chu Xianzhao stood up and placed the Dragon Bird Sword on his waist.
Her eyes played: "Go to my room, aren't you afraid that I will eat you?"
Chu Xianzhao looked at her silently, as if he was talking about something insignificant, a trace of candle flame flickered under his eyes, and Su Nianyu also looked back at him quietly, and at the same time stood on tiptoe desperately, like a child.
Eventually, he sat in her room, watching her sweep her long smooth hair with a wooden comb, and she had a very special scent, with a northern fragrance, fragrant and bitter, like the smell of snow on a pine branch in winter.
"To be honest, I was very unhappy today. She put down the comb and pursed her lips slightly, Chu Xianzhao smiled slightly, this indifferent expression made her feel very uncomfortable, she looked at him with bared teeth, like an angry little girl.
Chu Xianzhao said politely: "I apologize for my failure in advance. ”
"Does it work to apologize? Do you know how tired I am from stepping on wooden boots to go to the palace every day to help you see a doctor? And who are the girls in your courtyard, who are not polite at all, and do not apologize when they bump someone, and have a black face as if I owe them money. She pretended to be fierce.
"I apologize to you for their rudeness. ”
"You think I want to help you see a doctor, if it weren't for the fact that I owe that guy so much favor, but I owe someone a favor and I must pay it back, it just so happens that you are also here, I will help you with it here, you still need to have two acupuncture sessions." She waved her hand in an old-fashioned manner and walked to Chu Xianzhao's side.
"No, I'm not here for acupuncture, I just want to talk to you, sincerely, have a good talk. He moved his chair back, not wanting her to touch him again.
Su Nianyu looked at him silently, the state of Chu Xuanzhao tonight made her a little unfamiliar, and it seemed that even her voice had changed, with a unique wavelength tone, as well as an indifference that rejected people thousands of miles away.
"Okay, if you want to talk to me, then we'll have a good talk. She pulled a stool and sat in front of Chu Xianzhao, her legs staggered, her peach-colored cloud robe covering her straight and slender legs, her bare feet swaying gently, looking at him with a provocative gaze.
There was a gentle knock outside the door, and Lu Yin's voice came from outside the door with a hint of hesitation: "Sister Yu, An Dingjun and his party are here, and they want to see you." ”
"Got it, tell them that Luhua is bathing, please stay for a while. She waved her hand a little impatiently.
Chu Xianzhao looked at her a little blankly, and she smiled slightly: "The rivers and lakes have the incisions of the rivers and lakes, and the Qinglou has the same incision of the Qinglou." ”
"Can we be honest about each other in the next conversation?"
"Absolutely. ”
"What have you been doing all nights these days?"
"Playing the piano and dancing with the guests to drink. ”
"Have you left the Warm Building?"
"Nonsense, why don't I help you heal in the afternoon?"
"I mean ...... at night"
"Nope. ”
"Do you know that Lord Zhang Guodu is dead?"
"I don't know. ”
"Would you be sad if your father was killed in a hut?"
“......”
Every time Chu Xianzhao asked a question, she gave an answer in the next second, and it seemed that she was honest enough.
"From now on you owe me two apologies. He wasn't going to ask any more.
"Really?" she said, her fingertips curling a strand of hair, her eyes drooping, her gaze wandering.
"Although I am not a yamen arrester, and I have not learned theories such as criminal investigation, but I understand human nature, I know you Su Nianyu, just as Su Nianyu understands Chu Xuanzhao, maybe I know my situation better than you. He rubbed his reddened face slightly, watching as the other party slowly stretched his fingertips out of his mouth, stained with silver threads.
"What's wrong with me?"
Chu Xianzhao stood up and walked to the window, looking at the brightly lit Baihe Street outside, the night of Lin'an City is always so beautiful and vibrant, the night market is not until the end of the third watch, only the fifth watch is reopened, the place to play is noisy, the lights are endless, the handover of the Qinglou tavern, until the four drums are quiet behind the back, and the five drums will move towards the horse, and there are those who buy the morning market, reopen the door, and the four o'clock are the same.
"You became an orphan when you left the north, although your parents were slaughtered by wolf soldiers, but you always hate the country of Yin, hate our inaction, even if you have been living in the land of Hualou Fengyue, but your heart is always closed, and the fire of revenge is burning in it. ”
"Fire of revenge? Do you still think you are a poet? She walked up to Chu Xianzhao gently, rested her chin on his shoulder, exhaled like an orchid, and pressed her plump and creamy face hard against him, her breath was blurry.
"All I care about is your answer. ”
"My answer?" she chuckled, her eyes narrowing in a straight line, "Do you know what I care about?" I don't care about anything, I'll tell you honestly, I hate you, I hate your father, I hate anyone in your Chu royal family, after the incident of leaving the north, he pretended to be grief-stricken, personally dressed in linen to mourn for the dead people in the north, and also told the people of the world, what a hypocritical kindness, this is the difference between the king and ordinary people, they hold all the power in their hands, and strive to pretend to be a virtuous and honest person in front of the people, and the officials pretend to agree with his approach, and privately love the power, Money-seeing, you know? Nearly half of the income of every brothel in the city goes into what you call taxes, and why does the hard-earned money they exchange their bodies for go into your pockets?"
He said meaningfully: "You don't understand, you can't just look at the surface when you look at people and things, my father did something wrong, but his heart has been tormented by this matter, as for the tax is to protect the people and maintain the order of the dynasty, the land of Fengyue was originally a land of golden water, and the more you earn, the more you pay, so it's flat." ”
"yes...... I don't understand, when you were reading and writing in the weeping eagle, I had learned how to walk from the north to Lin'an, and the best thing I ever ate was fried knowledge, and you have seen the corpses of your relatives hanging on the city wall one by one? Can you imagine an old servant abandoning his children to protect his master's daughter? You will not have a chance to see that you are high above the top and below the ten thousand, and these things happen in the trough beyond your eyes, and I ...... Just live in that trough!" Her eyes were hazy, and those unbearable memories of the past were spit out by her like venom, and her tone was surprisingly soft.
Chu Xianzhao wanted to say something, there was a commotion outside the door, Su Nianyu's heart jumped, and she just wanted to turn around and scold her, when the voice came from far and near.
"Mom, isn't this kind, isn't it? no matter how big the shelf is, you can't make the guests wait so long, besides, tonight I brought the little prince to witness Ayu's demeanor, aren't you afraid that he will be unhappy, and turn around and let Tang Wangye seal your Qinglou?"
"Alas, Lord Andingjun, you also know Ayu's temperament, you can bathe for half a day, so I'm going to urge you. The old bustard apologized.
"Is Ayu bathing? Hehe, I'll just go up to see her, don't bother my mother." The visitor rubbed his hands together and laughed evilly.
"Ahh......h
"Where did you come from, little girl, get out of here!"
The gatehouse was pushed open roughly, Su Nianyu paused, looked around at the group of people standing outside the door, the man in the black and white robe looked at everything inside in a daze, and there were several young and vigorous sons and brothers standing behind him, the old bustard grabbed the man's sleeve and looked embarrassed, and the little hidden man stood aggrievedly and rubbed his arms.
"Mom, is this the bath you said?" An Dingjun's gaze fell on the young man standing by the window, even if they made such a big noise, the other party still looked out the window, and never turned around.
The old bustard was shocked, and regretted that he had forgotten the stubble of the third prince of Chu, so he had to make amends: "My lord, forgive me for forgetting, Ayu has already made an appointment tonight, or I will find another girl to accompany you, and I will not charge the son a penny of silver tonight." ”
"Ayu, who is this?" An Dingjun's gaze fell on Chu Xuanzhao, and the clear white puff in his eyes was full of evil energy, couldn't say anything jealous or what?
"Lord Anding-kun, forgive me for not being able to receive you tonight. She took a deep breath and changed into a smiling mask.
"Ayu, it's not like I want to see you tonight, there's a guy downstairs who says he admires your piano skills and hopes to listen to a song, he's pestered me several times these days, I can't shirk it, but he also understands the rules, saying that you can bid whatever you want, even if it's 10,000 taels of gold." ”
After saying this, the old bustard's eyes were startled, but when he looked at the thin figure by the window, he looked at Su Nianyu in embarrassment.
"Is it ten thousand taels of gold?" she squinted at him, the other party's overly hot eyes made her subconsciously want to avoid it, and her gaze finally fell on Chu Xuanzhao, but he always had nothing to do with himself, and looked at everything outside the window in a daze.
"The son over there, can you come with ten thousand taels of gold?" he said in a provocative tone, this kid also doesn't know the rules, who in the city doesn't know what the relationship between him and Su Nianyu is, and he actually dares to meet her openly, and his own samurai also clenched his scabbard and looked at the young man's figure fiercely.
"Lord Anding-kun, you can't afford to mess with that. The bustard couldn't help but cry out.
"I can't afford to provoke anyone, I can't afford to provoke anyone here, do you know who the one downstairs is? The eldest son of Tang Wangye's family, the little prince of our Yinguo, he can only consider himself unlucky today, and even the woman that the little prince likes dares to make an appointment, here I have a thousand taels of silver tickets, count me as sticking it to you, take it and go to the Qinglou elsewhere to be happy, so that when you will be kicked out, you don't even have a ticket on your body. He happily took out a silver ticket from his arms and threw it out, a light piece of dark gold paper, which was also stamped with the seal of the Iron Eagle Chamber of Commerce, Su Nianyu is not a person who has never seen a lot of money, when he used to drink with guests, an old pervert took advantage of her not paying attention to stuff a hundred taels of silver ticket into her chest, so angry that she tore the ticket in front of him and threw it in his face, but such a huge amount of tickets were thrown out as waste paper by An Dingjun, which shows his rich financial resources.
He's a very possessive person, but it's a pity that he gave the wrong person.
"Do you want to know what I brought?" Chu Xianzhao finally turned around, his voice was as beautiful as a chant, there seemed to be another ego in it, the dragon sparrow sword came out of its sheath silently, and the dark golden light swept past Su Nianyu's eyes, the sword turned to his left hand, and wiped Su Nianyu's head full of green silk smoothly projected out, and fiercely pierced the silver ticket that fell in the air on the side of the wooden door, the long sword trembled lightly, and the buzzing sound was loud, like a phoenix groaning, like a dragon roaring!
The bottomless purple eyes were reflected in the eyes of everyone, and the voice was as cold as the bronze bell of the ancient temple:
"Only I am called instantly, one person and one sword!"
