Chapter 1, Childe Allures
In the forty-third year of Qingyang, between the changes of wind and clouds, the season seems to change directly from summer to winter. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Two days ago, it was still hot in a single dress, but now it is wrapped in three layers inside and three layers outside, and I feel a little cold.
Thanks to this capricious weather, Huijiken, which is located in the center of Kyoto, has a booming business when it arrives, and it can be said that it is full.
The woman sitting in front of the red wood carved screen covered her face with lilac tulle, revealing only a pair of watery eyes, her fingertips flexibly plucked on the pipa, and her eyelashes fluttered and her eyes fell on the three people in the private room.
The man on the left holds a glass of wine in his hand, lowers his eyes, and saves it, occasionally glancing at the two people sitting opposite. The corners of his lips were slightly hooked, and he seemed to be in a good mood.
The man on the right looked quite bored, sliding unconsciously with the silver chopsticks in his hand, and looked at the woman from time to time.
The three men in this private room are all extraordinary, and any one of them can be said to be the best candidate for a woman's wishful thinking. And what she couldn't ignore the most was the man sitting face to face with her.
His long black and shiny hair was half-draped and half-bunched, and the mink fur on the neckline of his body was soft, strong, and plush and rich, and the color was shiny, which was worth a lot at a glance, and the faint purple added a touch of nobility to his eyebrows.
Qu Wuhua really lived up to the title of the first beautiful man in the Qing Dynasty.
The private room was clearly very warm, and there was sweat on her body.
But the mink cloak on Qu Wuhua's body has no intention of fading. His face is like a crown and his eyes are shining, his temperament is as elegant as an orchid, and he is as handsome as the gods of the Nine Heavens, which makes people unable to give birth to contempt.
Wuhua's face was unusually ruddy, and her eyes fell on her body in a daze, so that she didn't dare to raise her head. So shy and timid, she accidentally dialed a few wrong notes.
"Ahem....." Fortunately, Wuhua's coughing sound sounded at the right time, saving her field and keeping her from losing face in front of these three men.
Unsatisfactory, the man on the right obviously heard it, his eyes swept over, looked her up and down, and clapped his hands. The voice was slightly raised, "Little San, look at it." ”
The door was pushed open the next moment, and a body leaned in from outside, smiling at the woman. "Please, girl."
The woman fingered, her voice slowly disappeared, and she was quite reluctant in her heart. Before leaving, he was quite worried about the body of the man opposite.
Qin Xiangsheng watched the woman turn around and leave reluctantly, and knocked the silver chopsticks in his hand.
"Wuhua, are you okay?" Gu Ziqing added a cup of tea to Qu Wuhua while gently smoothing him down.
Qu Wuhua coughed out of breath, his heroic eyebrows and eyes were crumbled together, and he only felt a burst of itching in his throat. With a wave of his hand, he took the tea that had been poured on the table and took a sip. That's when I felt so much better.
Qin Xiangsheng turned his head to look at him, and for a while he looked at Wuhua's ingenious and flawless side face, and only when Qu Wuhua turned his gaze over, did he react, and couldn't help but feel a little annoyed in his heart that he was distracted again.
"Wuhua, you're fine, right?"
Qu Wuhua's Adam's apple rolled up and down, and he took another sip of the teacup in his hand. "It doesn't matter."
There is a voice, although it is not all charming and enchanting, nor is it a thousand tenderness, but when you hear it, it is like a fine light rain quietly falling in the spring to moisten everything, which makes people so fascinated, for a while, Qin Xiangsheng was in a trance again.
has been with Wuhua for so long, he has never been accustomed to Wuhua's handsomeness without any aggression, such a face lives up to the title of the most beautiful man in the Qing Dynasty.
Thinking of this, Qin Xiangsheng couldn't help but sigh, he couldn't tell whether he was jealous or envious, God really favored him, not only gave him such a handsome and outstanding appearance, but also gave him such a beautiful voice.
There was silence in the private room for a while, and Wuhua raised his eyes to see Qin Xiangsheng's undisguised look of regret. He shook his head and smiled.
"I don't know Brother Qin, what are you sorry for?"
"Huh?" Qin Xiangsheng came to his senses and couldn't understand the meaning of Wuhua for a while.
Wuhua and Gu Ziqing glanced at each other, looked at each other and smiled. Wuhua was nothing, but Gu Ziqing suddenly burst out laughing, causing Qin Xiangsheng to be quite annoyed and glared at him fiercely. "What are you laughing at?"
Gu Ziqing chuckled, "If you regret something, I will laugh at it." ”
"How do you know what I'm thinking?" Qin Xiangsheng was surprised.
"Don't you have it written on your face?" Gu Ziqing shook his head, added another cup of tea for Wuhua, and then pointed at Qin Xiangsheng's face.
Qin Xiangsheng touched his face suspiciously, looked at Gu Ziqing carefully for a long time, and then realized that he was playing with himself, and couldn't help but be a little annoyed. "Brother Ziqing."
Gu Ziqing shrugged his shoulders, looked at Wuhua's appearance, and then looked at Qin Xiangsheng and teased.
"Do you dare to say, didn't you sigh at Wuhua's appearance before, such a face on a man's body is really a violent thing?"
Hearing Gu Ziqing say this, Qin Xiangsheng was suddenly shocked. "What are you talking about?" I can't help but wonder if I have the obvious performance that is?
Wuhua was amused by his words, his chest rose and fell, and he covered his mouth and coughed lightly.
Gu Ziqing's tears were about to flow out, and after laughing enough, he said again.
"Haven't you been muttering about the violent heavenly things, the violent heavenly things?"
Hearing this, Qin Xiangsheng couldn't help but be embarrassed, and looked at Wuhua for a long time, and his speech was a little stumbling. "I—I'm just sighing, and nothing else."
Wuhua shook his hand, obviously not taking this matter to heart.
After laughing for a while, the box suddenly fell silent again. Gu Ziqing and Qu Wuhua looked at each other for a moment, looking at Qin Xiangsheng's dejected appearance.
"I see, it's still early, and lunch has just ended, why don't you go out for a walk?"
"Yes, that's fine." Wuhua nodded, smirking self-deprecatingly.
"I've only been sick once, but it's like I haven't seen the sun outside in a long time."
"Haha, that's because my aunt cherishes you, for fear that you will blow the wind and get sick." Gu Ziqing turned his eyes to ask Qin Xiangsheng's opinion. "Xiangsheng, what do you think?"
Qin Xiangsheng couldn't lift his momentum at all. "Whatever."
Looking at Qin Xiangsheng's appearance, Gu Ziqing couldn't help but shake his head at Qu Wuhua. "Which direction do you want to go?"
Qu Wuhua couldn't help but sigh and replied unintentionally. "The New Year is approaching, if you say that in Kyoto, where is it lively..... why don't we go to Jingzhao Mansion to see the excitement?"
"Lively?" Hearing Qu Wuhua mention of Jingzhao Mansion, Gu Ziqing had some guesses in his heart.
When Qin Xiangsheng heard this, he raised his head suddenly, and just happened to crash into Wuhua's smiling eyes, Wuhua was already like the pride of the sky, looking at himself with such a smile, the pure black and deep pupils were like a deep pool whirlpool, which made people fascinated for a while and couldn't extricate themselves.
Qin Xiangsheng's body was stunned, and then he reacted, Gu Ziqing and Wuhua sang and harmonized, and the corners of his lips curved a bitter arc. "Brother Ziqing, Wuhua, don't tease me."
Knowing that Qin Xiangsheng already knew what he meant, Gu Zi cleared the door to the point.
"We didn't want to ask too much, but see for yourself how lost you look. Ever since the last time an old woman found you, you started to feel uneasy. What the hell is going on? ”
"Me." Hearing this, Qin Xiangsheng sighed and touched his face.
"Am I acting that obviously?"
"Don't interrupt." Gu Ziqing glared at him.
"According to the friendship of several of us, is it difficult for you to hide it from us? If you believe us, tell us. What is the use of a person who is stuffy in his heart? ”
The tea in Wuhua's hand was already half cold, and he lowered his head and put down the tea cup in his hand.
Listening to Qin Xiangsheng sigh a few times in a row, as if he didn't know where to start, Wuhua lightly poured out the tea and replaced it with a cup of hot tea to warm his hands. "Last time, the old woman of the Li family came to you, presumably because she wanted you to testify, right?"
As soon as these words came out, not only Qin Xiangsheng opened his mouth wide, but even Gu Ziqing moved his puzzled gaze to Wuhua.
Connecting what Wuhua said earlier, Gu Ziqing suddenly understood.
"Wuhua, how do you know?" While Qin Xiangsheng reacted, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"The case in which the old woman of the Li family sued Huang Bicao, the eldest son of the Huang family, for the life of Huang Bicao has been spreading recently."
Wuhua looked up with a little meaning. "How do you think I don't know?"
Qin Xiangsheng's words were stagnant, and he only listened to Gu Ziqing's incomprehensible inquiry. "Xiangsheng, how did you get involved in that case?"
Qin Xiangsheng sighed again, since the words have been explained, then he has nothing to scruple about. "Last time, Brother Ziqing and Wuhua also saw that old woman coming to look for me, but you left first, and you didn't know what she was looking for me."
At the mention of this, Qin Xiangsheng's face wrinkled together, just like a bun.
"That old woman is older than my grandmother, she begged me bitterly, and even knelt down for me, I looked quite sad, and I wanted to agree at that time."
"That means you didn't agree?" Gu Ziqing frowned, very surprised. "Why?"
"Huang Bi's kid is cynical and has a bad personality, he is a typical gentleman, he still has a bad reputation on weekdays, he was taught a lesson by Huang Shangshu last time, and he calmed down for a while, I thought he was concentrating on reforming, but this time he unscrupulously made such a thing at the feet of the Son of Heaven. If I saw it, I should naturally respond to the old woman, but here's the problem. ”
Qin Xiangsheng scratched his hair in distress. "I didn't see what happened, I still learned about it from someone else. If I had agreed to the old woman to testify in court, wouldn't it have become perjury? ”
Wuhua lowered his eyes to hide the emotions under his eyes. Qin Xiangsheng has a bold and direct personality, and attaches great importance to promises, I am afraid that it is because of this that someone will instigate him to let the old woman of the Li family come to find him.
