Chapter 12: The Guest of Entry
The night was silent, and the dim candle flame flickered charmingly, like a letter stretched and contracted by a fire refiner. Since the banquet in the "Junyue Building", Xiao Han has been recuperating in the house for several days, not because of the poisoned wine, but because of the changes, and only ordered the three young men and Yuyu to pay attention to the movements in Jiangzhou.
"Alright, go and rest!" After listening to the three teenagers' "no movement in Jiangzhou", Xiao Han waved his hand and motioned for them to go back.
"Yes." The door creaked open and closed, and Xiao Han was the only one left in the room.
The slender and white fingers rhythmically knocked the table "dongdong", Xiao Han's cold eyes shone with an unknown light, Yu Wu This person is really elusive, this person is really a smiling tiger, she can't even detect his slightest plan, if Yu Wu does nothing, she will definitely not believe it.
Dealing with Yu Wu was really hard, and Xiao Han's brows were locked into knots for once. Yu Wu is very similar to her in a certain way, and the most difficult thing for a person to deal with is himself. Retracting his fingers and gently pressing the center of his eyebrows, Xiao Han's eyes drooped, and he accidentally swept the bronze mirror. It's just a casual glance, but he found that there seemed to be a faint shadow reflected on the blurred bronze mirror, Xiao Han's eyes tightened, and he picked up the brush on the table and flew towards the person with full internal force, the speed was faster than the rapids. In just a moment, a muffled snort came out, Xiao Han has always been sensitive and suspicious, so he flew to the courtyard at the fastest speed, only to see a black shadow jumping away on the roof, Xu was hit by Xiao Han's secret weapon, and the person's speed was obviously a little sluggish.
"You're so guarded!" Xiao Han threw a word to the three young men and Yu Yu who came to hear the sound, and the words disappeared.
The man in black was hit by her, and it was naturally easy to catch him with Xiao Han's skills, but Xiao Han wanted to know the person behind the scenes, so he just followed the man in black closely.
Unconsciously followed the man in black to the shore of Poyang Lake, and in a blink of an eye, the man in black disappeared, but Xiao Han was not in a hurry and even looked leisurely, she might have guessed the person behind the scenes.
Spring is in full bloom, and on the night of the flower moon, rows of painting boats are moored on the lakeside. The sky was already dark, and the cold and white moon hung obliquely in the sky, and the thin clear light was like a layer of plain veil, enveloping the entire Poyang Lake, adding a bit of ethereal charm to the already rippling lake. At the beginning of the lanterns, the lights on the painting boat are like day, and the sound of the gorgeous and extravagant painting boat is like a wisp of green smoke drifting around, and the sound of the wind is also mixed with the men's high-minded talk and some dusty women's coquettishness. The Jin people are the most hedonistic, but wherever there is a wind and a moon, there are beautiful women who will drink and have fun, and so on are also common.
The night breeze blew slightly, blowing Xiao Han's half-pulled green silk elegantly, adding a bit of elegance to the cold face with great charm. Unfolded the folding fan pinned to his waist with a "snap", Xiao Han held the snow-white folding fan against his chest, and walked towards one of the painting boats.
The Jin people are elegant, and the folding fan is also a very common accessory among men, even in winter all year round, it is not strange to see a man shaking a folding fan in his hand.
Stepping on the painting boat, Xiao Han closed the folding fan with a flick of his wrist, knocked the side of the boat with the head of the fan, his lips moved slightly, and the cold and ethereal voice was like ripples on the water that rippled far away: "The east wind is blowing, can you borrow a cup?" ”
Such a very ethereal voice suddenly sounded in the painting boat, and everyone turned around, only to see a young man about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a white shirt fluttering and green silk half-holding a plain fan, his face was like a cloud fairy, his form was like a lotus in the water, and his breath was like the moon in the night sky.
Whether it is a man or a woman, his heart is stagnant when he looks back, and a young man with such a transcendent breath and a peerless face can be called the best in the world, I am afraid that Pan An and Wei Jie's old ones are just like this! Because of this, the noisy surroundings suddenly became extremely quiet, as if the original obscene sounds would disturb this immortal.
"Who is this Lang?" A young man with such grace should be from a noble background, but there has never been such a man in your family!
"I'm afraid it's Jiankang nobles, only Jiankang men in the world have this elegance!"
"Xiaolang, please drink." While everyone was talking, a scholar with a beautiful face and a gentleman with a wine utensil had gone forward.
"Thank you!" With both hands arched into fists, Xiao Han took the wine glass again and drank the wine in the cup. The mouth is full of the unique spicy of wine, Xiao Han is a genius of heaven, she has a very high understanding of the things of the world, but she is really powerless when it comes to drinking, even so, she still has a faint look on her face, which is enough to see that she is very good at controlling herself.
"Xiaolang is peerless, dare to ask who is the son?" The closer he got to this young man, the more he felt that this young man was very cold and indifferent.
Xiao Han didn't answer, but walked towards a dusty woman. Everyone looked at the beautiful young man walking towards this side, and they all got out of the way, as if this young man should be worthy of their treatment.
The woman in the dust has read countless people, but she has never seen such a dream, like a fairy, like a fairy and an idiot, this Lang's complexion is displayed, and no woman in the world dares to say that the country and the city are peerless. Even if she was as bold as a woman in the dust, seeing the young man getting closer and closer, she couldn't help but flush and her heart beat faster, as if she was an untrained girl.
This dusty woman is called the Moon Hime, and the Moon Hime's complexion is also superior. Therefore, when everyone saw the young man walking towards Tsukihime, they thought that this Lang had taken a fancy to Tsukihime.
However, to everyone's surprise, the young man didn't even look at Tsukihime, and took the lyre beside Tsukihime directly. The young man's fingers were long, white and smooth, and I saw him gently plucking the strings, and a quiet sound filled the night sky under the moon, like flowing water, clean and pure; It seems that the sound of the valley is bursting, deep and quiet; It's like the rustle of the evening breeze, natural and casual.
In the dark night, in the clear moon, the graceful sound of the piano floated around the painting boat like green smoke, and everyone's eyes seemed to be empty, only to know that the fairy sound floated into their minds to form a picture scroll with a deep artistic conception.
When the heaviest tone that permeated the air cleared, the crowd pulled their minds back from the meditation. When I looked closely, I saw that in the night sky with the white light of the moon, the young man was standing on the bow of the boat holding the lyre, the white clothes were better than the snow, the clothes were fluttering, and the white mist was steaming on the lake, so there was no doubt that he was an immortal.
The young man's cold and ethereal voice floated out: "The spring moon is bright, Xiao Han thanks the wine of the gentlemen with a song!" ”
"Xiao Lang is a member of the Xiao clan in Lanling?" At that time, people with extraordinary elegance were all from famous families, such as Xiao Han, who had a good complexion and temperament, and people would naturally think of her as a member of the Xiao family in Lanling, of course, she was indeed in terms of blood.
"Don't dare to climb high, Xiao Han is just a cloth ear!" Xiao Han will never admit that she is the bloodline of the Lanling Xiao family, she is not a person in any gate, she is just Xiao Han.
"Could it be that Xiaolang is the Xiao Jun who destroyed the mountain bandits?"
Xiao Han didn't answer, but listened to those scholars who affirmed themselves.
"I never thought that people who practice martial arts like Xiao Jun are also personable and elegant!" Xiao Han's original extermination of the mountain bandits only boosted his reputation, but it was always the image of the martial arts scholars, and the literati looked down on him at all, and later the banquet of the "Junyue Building" scholars gradually changed their views on this Xiao Lang, but after tonight's song, I am afraid that no one dares to say that Xiao Han is just a martial artist.
"Where is Xiao Lang?" A man dressed in black pushed through the crowd and asked, "My son-in-law is invited." ”
Although the world was not pre-Qin, the word Gongzi still had an extremely noble color, and ordinary men could not use this title, so it can be known that this person was a noble son.
"I am Xiao Han", putting down the lyre, Xiao Han unfolded the folding fan and said, "I have never known your son." "The meaning is clear, I won't go unless he comes to me himself.
"You don't know how to lift up," shouted the man in black, "and it's your honor to invite you!" ”
"Xiao Han is a white dress, I can't afford this honor", the cold eyes exuded arrogance, and the cold tone was not without mockery, "If you want to meet, why don't you come!" ”
"You!" The man in black frowned, a little impatient.
What else to say, the voice of the man in black was actually interrupted by a golden and jade voice: "In just a few days, I won't move Xiao Lang?" ”
When I heard the sound and looked, I saw that the person who came was also plain brocade and white, with a complexion like jade, and his demeanor was all elegant. There seems to be a gorgeous and warm flower blooming on the warm smile of the person who came, as elegant as a red plum in a snow bath, this person is undoubtedly Yu Yi.
"Yu Lang." Everyone was a little excited, Yingchuan Yu was all over the world, and now they can see this person is a great luck in this life. Sure enough, this Yu Wu is as graceful as the rumors, like a god.
"It's Yu Lang who invited!" If you taste it carefully, you will know that there is still a layer of irony in Xiao Han's words.
"But if you invite Xiao Lang to have a few drinks, will Xiao Lang want to excuse yourself like this?" Yu Yi's gentle smile seemed to have not changed for ten thousand years, and even such reproachful words were softened by that warm smile, no wonder those girls were so fond of Yu Wu.
"Since Yu Lang invited him, Xiao Han dares to have a reason not to go." Xiao Han was also light-hearted, but everyone was confused by the ordinary and subtle words and ordinary and subtle expressions of the two.
"So please!"
The two young men in white walked side by side, their demeanor was calm and elegant, and they had a unique style. Everyone sighed from the bottom of their hearts, the most elegant man in the world is none other than these two, but these two people walk side by side, how can this situation and this scene be under the beauty of the landscape!
Yu Wu's painting boat is gorgeous and elegant, just like others with a gentle and elegant charm. The dark cabins are illuminated by bright and transparent lights, as if they were daytime.
On the couch table, there are delicacies with good color and fragrance poured clear elixir and jade liquid, and Yu Yi has already prepared Xiao Han's couch, so Xiao Han also sat down.
As soon as Xiao Han sat down, there was a plump girl with milky white buttocks and round buttocks, leaning on Xiao Han as if she were boneless, and held the wine glass to Xiao Han's mouth to feed her wine.
The girl is a typical Jiangnan woman, and Wu Nong, who has a glutinous mouthful, whispered softly: "Xiao Lang, the concubine has admired Xiao Lang for a long time!" ”
This scene is very fragrant, but any man's heart will melt when he sees such a woman, not to mention that this woman's white head is still resting on Xiao Han's shoulder blades. However, Xiao Han is a woman, and Xiao Han is a woman comparable to cold ice.
Even Yu Yu had never made such an outrageous move towards Xiao Han, Xiao Han's eyes narrowed, his whole body exuded a terrifying coldness, and shouted: "Get out!" ”
The girl was taken aback, and the little hand that was constantly rubbing on Xiao Han's body also slackened, looking at Xiao Han who was angry, the girl's big watery eyes were misty, so pitiful. At this time, let alone a man, even a woman should soften her heart when she sees such a cute appearance, but Xiao Han's temperament is thin and cold, and the cold aura on his body has increased instead of decreasing.
The girl squirmed her red Danzhu cherry lips and said aggrievedly: "Xiao Lang, the concubine really loves Lang Jun!" The girl's appearance was like a ripe peach, and her expression was about to seep out of the water.
Rumo's pupils seemed to be made of ice, and the luster emanating from the pupils was also like a sharp sword, Xiao Han lifted the girl's little hand and threw it down, and the cold voice shouted again: "Get out!" ”
"Xiao Lang", was drunk by Xiao Han violently, and the girl's tears hanging in her eye sockets rolled down, making her little face even more pitiful. The girl was unwilling, wrapped Xiao Han's waist around her, and called softly while choking, "Xiao Han's complexion is excellent, the concubine is happy with Xiao Lang, and the concubine has nothing else to ask for but Xiao Lang to pity the concubine!" ”
"The concubine does not ask for Lang Jun's pillow person, but asks for a Cheng Lang Jun's grace!" This is what men in the world dream of, and they can have a night of fish and water without any price.
Without mercy, he pulled the girl attached to him away, Xiao Han put a fan against the girl's pink neck, and said coldly: "If you entangle again, don't blame me for being ruthless!" ”
Although it was just a fan, the pain in the neck was intense, thinking that this young man was a ruthless man who exterminated the mountain bandits overnight, the girl's face suddenly turned pale, and she believed that he could do it.
"Xiao Lang why is this", Yu Yifang kept smiling and watching, and only then did he persuade, "There is such a beautiful woman who should be happy, why is it such an abrupt beauty?" ”
Turning his eyes like ice, looking at Yu Wu who was hugging a beautiful girl, Xiao Han couldn't help but feel pantothenic acid in his stomach, and a feeling of retching arose from the bottom of his heart. Raising her eyes and looking at the man who smiled like a warm and beautiful jade, Xiao Han suddenly seemed to be back before the age of six, when she was like a beggar looking at the man who was reading to her mother and hugging other women, although she was still cold and ruthless at that time, but the disgusted retching in her heart could not be ignored! She herself didn't know why she reacted so violently to such a situation.
Holding back the disgusted retching, Xiao Han's words seemed to be squeezed out of the tip of his tongue, stiff and dry.
She said: "Did Yu Lang invite me to come and share the joy of fish and water with these dusty women? If this is the case, Xiao Han will not be accompanied! With a flick of his sleeves, Xiao Han tried his best to use his internal force to suppress the disgust in his heart, and he had the intention of turning away.
"Wait", Yu Wu's golden and jade voice stopped Xiao Han's footsteps. Yu Wu pushed away the women beside him, walked slowly towards Xiao Han, and said, "Since these women can't get into Xiao Lang's eyes, I'll let them out!" ”
"Bai Zhi, take them down." Yu Wu instructed the man in black who had just invited Xiao Han in.
"Yes, Childe."
After those dusty women were reluctantly invited out, Xiao Han turned around, dusted off the smell of rouge on his body, and coldly entered the couch.
Xiao Han preemptively said: "Why did Gongzi Yu bring me here?" Xiao Han's cold tone was very tough, as if there was a sense of reproach, and he was not polite at all.
The man in black who was hit by her was Yu Yi's subordinate Bai Zhi, eavesdropping was not Yu Yi's original intention, he really wanted to lure Xiao Han over, no wonder he asked the injured Bai Zhi to invite Xiao Han openly.
"Xiao Lang is kind-hearted, the beauty is sitting in her arms and not messing up, she is really not an ordinary teenager!" Yu Wu joked with a smile and bypassed the topic. Yu Yi's words seemed to have a sense of praise, but when you dig deeper, you will find that there is suspicion hidden in his tone.
Xiao Han obviously also discovered this, and the coldness in his tone also dropped a lot, and he said lightly: "People in the wind and dust, I am evil!" ”
"Really?" Yu Wu poured a glass of wine, obviously he was surprised and puzzled by Xiao Han's reaction, and at this time, hearing Xiao Han's explanation, he revealed disbelief.
"Why don't you get straight to the point? deliberately let people bring me here, shouldn't it be as simple as greeting Xiao Han? She didn't believe that Yu Wu brought her here just to drink, she deliberately called Yu Wu as Yu Gongzi, Yu Wu is a very dangerous person, and sometimes it is better to be alienated from him......
"Oh, you're so sure?" Yu Yi is still enjoying the wine in the cup, if others must be impatient, but Xiao Han is calm.
"Am I sure that Yu Gongzi knows himself", Xiao Han simply learned from him to go around the bend, "Since Yu Gongzi likes to go around the bend, I will accompany him!" ”
"Hahaha". Even with this kind of dissolute laughter, Yu Wu looks as radiant and warm as a jade mountain, like a turbid son.
After laughing, he suddenly stopped the smile that he usually wore on his face, and his whole person became evil, as if this was his true color.
"Xiao Han, you only have one choice!" The voice of gold and jade actually had an evil feeling.
"Oh, but I smell it!" Xiao Han looked at her unhurriedly, she really didn't expect it wrong, Yu Shiwulang was indeed inconsistent.
Squinting his eyes slightly, Yu Yi's obsidian eyes were as sharp as an eagle, and the jade-like face under the shadow of his eyelashes also became deeper, and he said, "You are not from the Xiao clan of Lanling." ”
"Yes."
"Except for your ability, you don't have any family background in Jiangzhou."
"Yes."
"You are vainly trying to get a piece of the Jiangzhou forces", Yu Wu's body suddenly leaned forward, those eagle eyes seemed to see through Xiao Han, he suddenly raised his voice, and said in a dignified voice, "You only answer yes or no." ”
Looking at Yu Yi, whose temperament had changed abruptly, Xiao Han was stunned for a moment before he said slowly: "Yes." ”
Retracting the sharpness in his tone, Yu Wu said again: "You are trying to compete with the big family. ”
Xiao Han didn't answer him, but said sarcastically: "So what, even if you say it all!" Yushi Goro, what do you want? ”
"Xiao Han, believe it or not, I only need a little instruction, you won't be able to gain a foothold in Jiangzhou, and you will even die in Jiangzhou!" Yu Wu was extremely evil, and his tone seemed to say that Xiao Han was like an ant, and he could pinch her to death with his fingers.
What Yu Yi said is also true, in this era, the family is the most important, and Xiao Han, who has no family protection, can only be handled by others even if he is capable.
"As you said, why didn't you dispose of me?" Xiao Han was asking rhetorically, she was sure that Yu Wu had already developed a strong interest in her, and he wouldn't move her yet.
Standing up suddenly, Yu Wu was domineering, and he walked towards Xiao Han. Walking to Xiao Han's couch, he propped his arms on the couch, leaned forward, and settled at a position where the two faces were only a few millimeters apart. His deep features had become so wicked that he looked intimidating. The warm breath sprayed on Xiao Han's face, and Yu Yi snorted: "Don't think that if I turn a blind eye to your previous actions, I won't move you!" ”
"Why do you think the Jiangzhou Hao clan hasn't made any moves in the past few days?"
"Don't think that if you drink poisonous wine for me, I will show mercy", Yu Yi was warning, "Make a fuss about the details, Xiao Han, you probably don't know what kind of character my Yu Yi is, you are very bold!" ”
Raising her eyes, Xiao Han's heart suddenly shook, sure enough, it was Yu Yi who suppressed a qiē for her, it turned out that the qiē she did couldn't withstand the slight operation of Yu Shigolang, it turned out that this qiē was all under Yu Yi's control.
Calming down, Xiao Han understood that now he is weak, no matter how he takes advantage of the situation, it is very easy to be manipulated, and the only way to get rid of this situation is to make himself strong.
"Yu Gongzi brought me here, I'm afraid it's not as simple as warning me, why don't you just say it." Xiao Han is trying to negotiate with Yu Wu, as long as Yu Wu does not move at present, she can do anything.
"Xiao Han, I want you to be my staff!" Immediately following Xiao Han's words, Yu Wudao, listening to his tone, Xiao Han seemed to have no choice.
"You!" Xiao Han was a little angry, "Yu Wu, how can I, Xiao Han, be your family dog!" ”
"Hmph", Yu Yi sneered, "You think you still have a choice, either die or be my staff!" ”
"Don't deceive people too much", Xiao Han sneered, "Yu Wu, if Xiao Han is forced to be in a hurry, Xiao Han is not sure what he can do!" ”
"Xiao Han", Yu Yi suppressed his voice, his long eyelashes seemed to be sweeping to the skin of Xiao Han's face, he was like a ghost, and said, "Don't forget that my Yu Yi can't tolerate anyone who poses any threat to the Yu family!" ”
He turned around and finally changed the distance between the two, straightened out his wrinkled clothes, regained his previous warmth, and said, "Although I don't know what your purpose is, you should know that only one sentence can make you lose everything!" ”
Raising his eyes, the crystal light shot straight at Yu Yi, Xiao Han said sincerely: "Yu Wulang, I said that you and I have the same end in the matter of Jiangzhou, and I promised to protect you by one person, do you think I will harm you?" ”
Yu Wu smiled shallowly, it seems that this Xiao Han really doesn't know who he is, and he actually practices the trick of the master of Taoyuan wholeheartedly.
However, when it comes to the Yu family, even if he is a senior brother, he will not show mercy, he said: "You really won't disobey me about Jiangzhou, but you know how to prevent it?" ”
Yu Yi is indeed not wrong, Xiao Han will not pose a threat to him now, but it may not be necessary later.
"I don't care what you do, but you have to be in my control!" Yu Yi's implication is that Xiao Han is not easy to control, and he must ensure that she can't hurt Yu.
Hearing him say this, Xiao Han closed his eyes, his mind turned quickly, and he was weighing whether he should choose to throw himself at Yu Yi.
If she hadn't been for him, she believed that Yu Wu would do what he said, and her plan would be disrupted; If you are his staff, you will be restrained by him in everything! The lesser of the two is the right to do so, and now he can only serve as his staff.
Wu Di opened his eyes, Xiao Han got up and approached him and asked, "If I am your staff, what do I need?" ”
Smiling, Yu Wu said: "Jiangzhou has many forces, if I disrupt Jiangzhou, I must have someone to help me deal with Jiangzhou's affairs." I know that you have great talents, so what you are doing is to help me bring the Jiangzhou forces into the scope of the Yu clan! ”
"That's all?"
"I said I was going to control you!" Of course, Yu Wu has more than that.
With a sneer, Xiao Han said: "So I am your staff." ”
"But", Xiao Han's tone suddenly took a turn, "It's only a year, and I will take care of Jiangzhou affairs for you within a year!" ”
"Yu Wu, you should know that Xiao Han is not the kind of person who is willing to be trapped in you, this is Xiao Han's biggest limit, if you force each other tightly, I don't mind if the fish dies and the net is broken!"
"Good!" Yu Wu easily agreed, which surprised Xiao Han.
Looking at Xiao Han with a look of surprise in his eyes, Yu Yi suddenly burst into a smile, and suddenly seemed to be pouring down a thousand pieces of brilliance: "I can control you in one year!" ”
He said his, but Xiao Han was thinking that this year was not a bad thing, at least she could grow her power within a year.
"I still have one condition", Xiao Han said again, "I want the shipping privilege of the Yangtze River in Jiangzhou!" ”
Yu Wu didn't think about it, but happily agreed: "Okay! ”
Facing Xiao Han, who was full of suspicion, Yu Wuguaner changed his mind with a smile and said, "Why don't you ask me how I will deal with the affairs of Jiangzhou?" ”
Xiao Han followed him and asked, "What will you do?" ”
Yu Wu chuckled lightly and said, "As you said, there must be something wrong with the frightened bow bird!" Speaking of which, Xiao Han has completely understood, Yu Wu is going to do it, no, maybe he has already done it, it seems that she still underestimated him!
"Come, Xiao Han, you and I will get drunk tonight!" Yu Wu also ordered his subordinates to bring a lot of wine.
Xiao Han wanted to refuse, but Yu Wu's expression knew that she couldn't refuse, so she came over and persuaded her to drink it until the wine jar on the ground was displayed, and Yu Wu didn't give up.
Xiao Han had never drunk so much alcohol, and she was already drunk and unconscious. Seeing this scene, Yu Wu smiled nonchalantly and ordered someone to send Xiao Han back, he already knew that Xiao Han had such a weakness, so he did it deliberately tonight!
"Childe, why do you want to leave such a big hidden danger around?" Sending Xiao Han away, Bai Zhi asked puzzled.
"Bai Zhi," Yu Wu was not half drunk, "My master once said that people like me are the most boring, but there are only two boring people like me in this world, except for me, the other one is Xiao Qi!" As he spoke, his eyes were a little hollow, and he was a little lonely.
"Do you know what it means to be sympathetic? She is very similar to me, and it is one of the great things in life to deal with her! ”
That ice-cube-like guy funny? Bai Zhi was really speechless, what kind of vision did his son-in-law have.
