The architectural styles of the Zhang family are varied, ranging from very old stone carvings to very modern Chinese styles, which shows that the family is growing, so the architectural style has been from ancient times to the present. Pen, fun, and pavilion www.biquge.info but in general, it is divided into an inner courtyard and an outer courtyard.

Zhang Xudong and they live in the inner courtyard, not far from here is a place called Wutian Palace, the architectural style here belongs to the Tang Dynasty, and there are many such buildings in the Wa Kingdom, they are imitating the Tang Dynasty. And this Wutian Palace was built during the real Tang Dynasty and has been rebuilt countless times, but it also maintains its original appearance.

It's just that Wutian Palace was not called this name before, but because after a person lived here, this was changed to Wutian Palace. This is none other than the one who is a very outstanding one among the second-generation members of the existing Zhang family, that is, Zhang Wu, the second master of the Zhang family.

I don't know if it's fate together, or Zhang Cong's negligence, he actually arranged Zhang Xudong and them near Wutian Palace, maybe it was only arranged in the dark.

Zhang Xudong deftly jumped over the not high courtyard wall, and the two guards of the Zhang family disciples didn't notice it at all. When he saw Wutian Palace, Zhang Xudong had a very strange feeling.

In the walk in it, it is attracted by the environment inside, all kinds of flowers and plants can be seen everywhere, there is an arched white marble bridge on a man-made river, the river water is crystal clear, the gurgling water flows through, the pebbles are paved with various colors below, and you can clearly see all kinds of koi swimming freely in the water below.

After walking across the stone bridge, there is an octagonal pavilion, in which there is a guqin, but no one is seen playing and singing, as if waiting for a real master to come, playing and singing the eternal song, breaking the soul.

Zhang Xudong was about to enter the pavilion, but suddenly the voice of a young girl came, Zhang Xudong couldn't help but stop in a daze, and then hid in the flowers and plants. The young girl's voice said, "Madam, I heard that a young man who claimed to be the son of the third master came to the clan, as if he had come to celebrate the old lady's birthday. ”

Stunned for a moment, Zhang Xudong had some doubts in his heart, and secretly thought: "Could it be that this person is Zhang Kui's wife?" ”

When Zhang Xudong had just hidden, he saw a woman who was a half-old coming over, followed by a girl with a bun in the sky, who should be about seventeen or eighteen years old. Although this woman is in her early forties, she has a graceful demeanor and elegant manners, and is quite a model of everyone's beauty. At first glance, it is a lady who has received antique and antique. What Zhang Xudong saw during the day was the back of this woman, but he could be sure that he had not seen this woman, but why did he feel familiar, but he couldn't think of where he had seen it, this woman gave him a very intimate feeling.

Zhang Xudong himself doesn't know what the reason is, if it is his own feeling in addition to the problem, then the charm of this woman is really too great, and it will actually make him feel like he wants to stand by her side and listen to her.

"Is it true? Where is he now? Hearing the girl's words, the woman was obviously quite excited, and grabbed the handkerchief in her hand and asked.

"I heard that they were arranged not far from us, and they were sent to monitor them twenty-four hours a day." The girl sighed and said, "I think Zhang Cong's housekeeper is afraid that they are here to make trouble, so they are not allowed to move, after all, the old lady's birthday cannot be mistaken, which will affect the reputation of the Zhang family." ”

"I've been moving to this Wutian Palace for more than twenty years, and I didn't have you at that time!" The woman seemed to be a little melancholy, suddenly realized something, and asked, "Xiaobi, what did you say about them?" Isn't it just himself? ”

"I heard that there was also a woman and a girl, who said that she was his mother and sister." The girl said: "This is when I went to help during the day, and I heard someone talking about it, as if that woman used to be from our Zhang family. Called, what is it called Luo Xiu! ”

The woman was stunned for a moment, her willow eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she said, "It's actually her?" Then the woman's mood became very low, as if in an instant she had fallen from a mountain to a deep valley.

After a long time, the woman spoke again: "After so many years, he must have left this world!" Even if I don't want to believe it, the facts are the facts. Luo Xiu is also a poor daughter, no matter what, she and Brother Feng have had a relationship. If the young Rehe girl is Brother Feng's child, it can be regarded as her successor, at least it is the blood of the Zhang family! ”

Zhang Xudong was even more confused, how could he hear that this woman was not Zhang Kui's wife in his imagination, but like the woman Zhang Feng in Luo Xiu's mouth, as if she moved to this Wutian Palace twenty years ago, this is really a bit chaotic.

"Third Madam, you are really a bodhisattva. However, I heard that if it weren't for that Luo Xiu back then, the third master wouldn't have ......," the girl said with some resentment.

"Don't mention it again!" The woman interrupted the girl and said, "I told you that I don't want to repeat it." You are still young, and when you take a fancy to the young descendants of the Zhang family, you will understand the feelings of our generation. ”

What's going on in it? It is difficult for Zhang Xudong to guess, maybe it is because of some forces and interests in the family! Zhang Xudong secretly thought to himself, if this is really the case, then maybe Luo Xiu's hatred is not too much.

Although the woman was a little angry, it was so piercing, and her whole person gave people a sense of kindness. The woman patted the girl lightly on the back, and then walked towards the pavilion, asking as she went, "Xiaobi, are you ready for the birthday gift I asked you to prepare?" Tomorrow is the old man's birthday, and our surname Zhang can't lose his manners. ”

The girl known as Xiaobi said, "Please rest assured, Third Madame, I was ready three days ago. ”

"Then I'm relieved!" The woman nodded slightly, and then sat in front of the guqin, like a spring and white snow's fingers lightly on the strings, suddenly a pleasant and moving sound sounded, a song "Mountains and Flowing Water" popped out a very simple style, making people seem to have walked into a love and hatred she weaved, loved and hated, and finally only one person, one piano and one lonely.

Zhang Xudong was already fascinated by listening, even if he didn't know any rhythm, he could also feel the emotions conveyed by the sound of the piano, as if even his whole heart was vibrating, with the change of timbre, sometimes sad and happy, sometimes happy and long. He was already in it, and he couldn't let go of it for a long time.

"Third lady, your piano skills are becoming more and more proficient, and those guqin masters in the outside world can't compare with you at all." Xiaobi clapped her hands lightly and praised.

And the woman was not happy, but sad, as if she were not playing the harp, but remembering. After a while, the woman lightly opened her lips and said: "If the qin art is the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it is a hundred schools of thought, and everyone's expression is different. But a good luthier plays the piano not with his hands but with his feelings, so that he can play the piano eloquently. ”

When Xiaobi and Zhang Xudong were thinking about this sentence. The woman said, "Xiaobi, help me prepare a meeting gift for Luo Xiu." Anyway, she is a poor woman, and we can't look at her coldly, after all, she left some blood to Brother Feng, and she is also a member of our Zhang family. ”

"Madam, you are just too kind, don't I want to say it. If you do this with good intentions, people may think that you are malicious, and then blame us. Xiaobi said with some reluctance.

The woman smiled and said, "This is the etiquette of our Zhang family, and we must not lose the etiquette." Okay, you just do what I say! After a pause, the woman said, "It's winter now, I don't have two fox furs, and I can't wear them if you send those black ones to Beijing City." ”

"Ma'am, I see." Xiaobi nodded slightly.

"I ...... grass," Zhang Xudong suddenly felt something bite on the back of his hand holding grass. When I looked down, I saw a finger-long centipede on the back of my hand, and the wound quickly became red and swollen, and even the blood that flowed out was black.

"Who is it?" Zhang Xudong's scolding immediately attracted the woman's attention, and she asked.

It looks like they can't hide anymore, and maybe there will be more of them. Zhang Xudong stood up, smiled at the woman and said, "Madame is polite, I came here just now when I heard the sound of the piano, and I was afraid of disturbing Madame's Yaxing, so I squatted here to listen." If there is a faux pas, please don't take care of it. ”

At the moment when Zhang Xudong appeared, the woman's expression froze, and the whole person stood in place staring at Zhang Xudong. And Xiaobi on the side was also stunned for a moment, her face was stunned, and she immediately turned her head to look at the woman, and said softly: "Third lady, this young man seems to be ...... with the third master."

She did not speak, but the woman raised her hand and did not let her say any more. Then he smiled at Zhang Xudong and said, "You should be the son of Zhang Feng that others talk about, right?" ”

Zhang Xudong is also confused now, and he can't be sure whether he is Zhang Feng's son at all. Therefore, after being stunned for a moment, he smiled slightly and said, "In Xia Zhang Xudong, the third lady is polite." ”

When the woman heard this, she was stunned again and asked, "You, you said your name is Zhang Xudong?" When Zhang Xudong's expression was also a little confused, the woman felt that she was a little too reckless. He nodded slightly and said, "The sun is rising, a good name." Now that you're here, let's have a few drinks! ”

Zhang Xudong smiled heartily and said: "I'm still wondering, the Zhang family is also an ancient martial arts family, why only give food and ignore the wine, I have long wanted to taste the Zhang family's wine." That is not the case in the next attack. With that, he walked over.
