Chapter 1: Redemption
February of the sixth year of the Taiyuan Dynasty.
During the Wei and Jin dynasties, the people were open, and both the rich and noble families and the literati loved to collect the Maiko and even took pride in it. In the last years of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, in the imperial capital of Jiankang, especially the women in the mansion of Sima Daozi, the king of Langya, and the king of Zhongshuling, were the most famous.
A green canopy-roofed carriage slowly drove through the wide streets, through the endless flow of people, until a well-established female car came to a halt.
Jumping lightly from the carriage was a young man dressed in a blue gown and a long crown in his hair, this young man looked about eighteen, his length was exactly seven feet, his posture was upright, this wide robe and big sleeves, and he was lined with long legs and thin waist, and then looked at the appearance of red lips and white teeth, straight nose and thin lips, not so much a teenager, but a girl.
It's just that this young man's eyebrows are full of heroism, not as feminine as a woman.
The young man just got out of the carriage, and the little man behind him hurriedly stepped forward, showed a flattering smile with him, bowed slightly and said: "Lord Wang, the little slave has inquired, in the entire Jiankang City, the official slave of this Yuanchun Pavilion is the most pleasing to people."
The voice fell, only to hear Sima Daozi smile faintly, and then he started into this female house.
How far away I heard the sound of the piano, the sound of the pipa and the flute, the singing, the music is crisp, the singing voice is tactful, just like the jade pendant chimes, I heard Sima Daozi fluttering like sitting on the clouds, how could he just enter the door, the pipa sound stopped abruptly, playing the pipa that girl sang "Yue Ren Song" solo, I don't know why, the singing also stopped immediately.
At first, only the sound of the pipa and the song were broken, and now the sound of the piano and the flute are also gone, and the men and women in Lu all looked up at the attic, Sima Daozi also looked at it, and then found a place to sit down, and the beautiful officials and slaves swarmed up.
Although it was a little noisy at that time, I could hear Xu Fu reprimanding the girl holding the pipa, and only said, "What's the matter with you!" It's okay to break the string, if you startle the guests, you can have good fruit to eat! ”
The girl was also hard-hearted, and now she was reprimanded and retorted: "How did I do it on purpose! You blame me like this, but you can make me wronged. ”
Xu Fu was even more angry when he heard this, and reprimanded: "You still talk back!" If I don't mess with you today, you won't have a long memory! ”
At this point, Xu Fu raised his hand to teach the girl a lesson, and suddenly a handsome man in a green robe downstairs said, "Xu Yuan, isn't this girl new?" You tell her to turn around and show me to see. ”
After this person said that, Xu Fu hurriedly smiled and said, "Wang Daguan, this girl is young and ignorant, don't blame her."
Wang Xianzhi picked up the wine cup, chuckled, drank it all, and didn't say anything, Xu Fu saw the situation, and hurriedly sent the girl into the house, and then gave the two girls who played the piano and flute a look, and motioned for them to continue.
The girl remembered Wang Xianzhi's kindness in relieving the siege, and did not forget to turn around and salute him before entering the house, and said with a smile: "Thank you Wang Daguan for helping me break the siege."
Wang Xianzhi saw that this little girl was born with a hibiscus appearance, apricot face and peach cheeks, and eyebrows, just like a fairy descending from earth, he was naturally not very happy in his heart, and he wanted to call her to stay, but he knew that a "Xu Yuan" made him stunned. Wang Xianzhi was slightly familiar with this voice when he heard this, and then followed the prestige past, if it was really Sima Daozi, he didn't despise it in his heart.
The girl smiled back, she had already made Wang Xian's heart move, and Sima Daozi was naturally the same.
She was exactly the same as Rong De, and her smile was very much like Rong De......
At that time, Sima Daozi had already stood up, Xu Fu listened to this call, she couldn't help but be surprised, she looked at Sima Daozi, hurriedly greeted her, and said with a smile: "Why is the prince coming, and he doesn't inform the old body in advance, and the old body can pick a few clever girls to serve you."
Sima Daozi was worried about Fang Cai's girl, so he naturally had no time to pay attention to the others, and he had always been indifferent, so he only asked, "What is that girl Fang Cai calling?"
Xu Fu glanced back at the closed door, and then said with a smile: "That girl's name is Tao Ge, she is twelve years old, but she is not very well-behaved, and the prince likes her?"
This Xu Fu was slightly disdainful in his words, Sima Daozi glanced at her, and said lightly: "This king is tired of being docile, and now he wants a not very well-behaved one."
Xu Fu laughed when he heard this, and said, "Since the prince likes it, then take it, and the old body will call her."
That little girl was originally Wang Xianzhi's favor, I heard Xu Fu say this, where is Wang Xianzhi willing, and he Langya Wang and Sima Daozi have always been at odds, he must take the opportunity to compare with him this time.
Wang Xianzhi called "Xu Yuan", and then walked towards her, Xu Fu was stunned, he said: "You make a price, Taoge girl, I am going to set it today!"
Xu Fu listened to this, although a little apprehensive, but more happy, this Tao Ge's temperament has never been pleasing to people, but I never thought that today I could call the king of Langya and Zhongshu Ling to fight, she will sell her at a good price this time.
Sima Daozi knew that Wang Xianzhi was here, and when he heard him say this, he still said lightly: "One thousand taels."
Xu Fu naturally wanted to compare the price, so he looked at Wang Xianzhi, so it was difficult, Wang Xianzhi really said: "The peach girl is only worth a thousand taels?" Xu Yuan, I'll give two thousand! ”
Sima Daozi said again: "Five thousand!"
Not to be outdone, Wang Xianzhi followed closely and said: "Six thousand!"
Sima Daozi suddenly raised the price and said, "Ten thousand."
Seeing that Wang Xianzhi was stunned, Sima Daoziyun said lightly: "Ten thousand taels, gold."
When the words fell, everyone was in an uproar, and 10,000 taels of silver was already shocking, let alone gold!
Where did Wang Xianzhi win Sima Daozi, but he was still unwilling, and was about to raise the price, the Wang family's family came in a panic and called "Seventh Master", Wang Xianzhi was impatient, and said slightly angrily: "What's the matter!"
The family attached himself to his side and whispered, "The old man is seriously ill."
After Jia Ding said that, Wang Xianzhi immediately stood up and exclaimed, "What?" Then he went out of the Yuanchun Pavilion with his family.
Seeing this, the little guy behind Sima Daozi was gloating, and whispered to Sima Daozi: "Lord Wang, I guess it's Wang Xizhi's general."
In such a situation, Sima Daozi knew that he needed to be reminded by this little guy, but he smiled and didn't say anything.
Xu Fu saw that Wang Xianzhi was gone, so he also accepted it when he saw it, and Ying Ying smiled: "Lord Wang, what ...... Taoge's ransom money......"
Sima Daozi raised his eyes and glanced at her, and said, "I will send it back to the house."
"Huh," Xu Fu replied again and again, and then went to call Tao Ge.
The strings were broken for no reason, Tao Ge was holding the pipa and pondering the reason, she was such a grudgeful person, when she saw Xu Fu coming in, she treated her coldly, and put down the guqin heavily to show her displeasure.
Xu Fu was also polite, looked at her and said, "Taoge, look at what you want to take away, someone has come to redeem you."
Tao Ge was surprised: "But that Wang Daguan?"
Xu Fu said disdainfully: "Look at your little bit of interest, what is Wang Xianzhi, it is King Langya who redeems you."
Tao Ge immediately stood up and said unhappily: "Why is he!"
"What's wrong with King Langya! If people take a fancy to you, that's your blessing! ”
Tao Ge said: "King Langya is ruthless and kills people like hemp, Xu Yuan will not be ignorant."
She hadn't lived long enough, but she didn't want to die early.
Hearing this, Xu Fu was speechless for a while, thinking that it was indeed such a truth, he swept his eyes around, and then walked to Tao Ge, I don't know what he whispered to her, and saw Tao Ge's face turn from surprise to joy.
Sima Daozi had been waiting outside the carriage for a long time, and when he saw Tao Ge come out, Tao Ge had changed into a tea white light collar wide-sleeved skirt, with a high comb bun, a little powder, a Yingluo around his neck, a cinnabar mole in the center of his eyebrows was better than a flower, and there was a slight smile between his eyebrows, as if Rong De was walking towards him.
Tao Ge walked to Sima Daozi and saw the carriage waiting beside him, so he said, "I have just eaten enough, and the carriage is bumpy, I'm afraid I can't sit down."
The road to the palace is smooth, how can there be bumps!
Sima Daozi's face was unwavering, he just looked at the coachman and waved his hand to signal him to go home first.
Tao Ge saw that the carriage was gone, so he turned around and walked eastward, Sima Daozi followed her, to the crowded place, Tao Ge suddenly stopped, turned around and said to Sima Daozi: "I'm tired of walking, my feet hurt tightly, why don't we rest and go again?"
Sima Daozi glanced at her and said lightly: "Then I will carry you."
Tao Ge was quite stunned, Xu Yuan asked her to take advantage of the chaos of people here, so that she could escape, but now it seems that she is afraid that it will not work. She jumped lightly on Sima Daozi's back, and said intentionally: "Xu Yuan said, you spend a hundred taels to redeem me, and I will be your person from now on, she wants me to serve you in the future, but I can't serve people, and my sisters have never taught me."
When she said this, she wanted Sima Daozi to think that she didn't understand anything, but it was really useless for him, who would have thought that she would be a little arrogant in her words.
Sima Daozi frowned slightly after hearing this, but did not speak, Tao Ge was afraid that he would not believe it, and said: "I heard that there are groups of concubines in your house, all of them are beautiful and unparalleled, but they are proficient in the art of the room, so they please you?" If you want me to serve you, let them teach me, or you can teach me. ”
Hearing this, Sima Daozi couldn't help frowning, but he still didn't answer, but the little guy blushed, so he reprimanded Tao Ge and said, "You little girl, where did you get so much nonsense!"
"Chiaki!" Sima Daozi finally spoke up, and when he called out, the little guy stopped.
Tao Ge deliberately teased and sneered: "Qianqiu? Your name is Chiaki? Coincidentally, I have a younger brother named Qianqiu. ”
Ru Qianqiu glanced at her, and Tao Ge deliberately said: "Brother Qianqiu, my sister is hungry and wants to eat Liu Ji's dim sum."
Hearing that Tao Ge was calling like this, Ru Qianqiu was naturally dissatisfied, so he looked at Sima Daozi and called, "Lord Wang."
Sima Daozi didn't say anything, just gave him a look, and signaled him to respond to Taoge's request.
Ru Qianqiu was reluctant in her heart, but she had no choice but to turn back.
Tao Ge looked back and saw Ru Qianqiu walking away, so he hugged Sima Daozi tightly, leaned on his ear, seemed to be joking, and said directly: "Why don't you let me go, Xu Yuan often says that I am lazy to eat, you take me in, and I will definitely suffer a big loss in the future."
Sima Daozi was stunned when he heard this, and only after a long time did he say lightly: "You want to leave me so much?"
Tao Ge didn't understand it, but he also said: "I'm good for you, I don't know anything, can I still eat white rice in your house?"
Sima Daozi smiled bitterly, put her down, and said indifferently: "Then you go, there are no idlers in the house."
Tao Ge was not in a hurry to leave, but walked to Sima Daozi, took off the Pixiu hanging from his waist, and then grabbed his hand, put the Pixiu in the palm of his hand, looked up at him, and said with a smile: "You spend a hundred taels to help me redeem myself, this Pixiu should only be regarded as repaying your kindness."
As soon as the words fell, Tao Ge ran away, as if he was afraid that Sima Daozi would arrest her back.
Sima Daozi looked at Tao Ge's figure and drowned in the crowd, and only after a long time did he retract his gaze, and looked down at the piece of Pixiu, but he was close to his eyebrows.
This Pixiu, it seems that the Xiao family also has a piece!
