Chapter Sixty-Eight: Reminiscing About the Old Years
68 Remembering the old days
Yuwen Xun rushed out of the Tianxiang Terrace, went straight to Hailu Garden, and as soon as he entered the door, he shouted: "Ying'er! Ying'er! What are you doing, come out quickly! β
Ying'er inside heard the voice of Shizi, and immediately greeted her, only to see Shizi running over full of alcohol, and when she saw Ying'er, she picked her up and kissed her fiercely. Ying'er hurriedly dodged shyly and said, "Shizi-so many people." β
Yuwen Xun didn't care about this, and laughed and hugged Ying'er inside and sat down. Ying'er asked in her arms, "What happy thing did the prince encounter today?" Still drunk. β
Yu Wenxun hugged Ying'er and said, "Do you know where I drank this wine today?" β
"Where? Where the prince thinks of drinking, it is not the same as picking up the holy car. β
"That's right, but today's wine is not ordinary, this wine was drunk from your senior sister Lu Weixi and Fairy Lu."
"It turns out that Shizi went to find her senior sister, is she okay?" Ying'er lowered her head and asked.
Yuwenxun saw that Ying'er looked down and seemed unhappy, so he coaxed: "Is the baby jealous?" Hey, rest assured! I just went to Tianxiangtai to drink a few bottles of wine and listen to the sound of your senior sister's piano. β
"Where does Ying'er dare to be jealous, the prince will have three palaces and six courtyards in the future, Ying'er is a dusty woman, and it is already a great blessing to follow the son, where do you dare to expect anything?"
"Don't worry, since you are my Yuwenxun woman, no one dares to say anything. Do you know that your senior sister has come to Chang'an? Yu Wenxun asked.
"Senior sister is famous in Chang'an this time, how could Ying'er not hear about it......"
"Then why don't you go and see her, she said she wanted to see you today."
"Shiziye, this is the difficulty of me and my senior sister, Ying'er has a good life and follows Shizi, but my senior sister is still in the fireworks, this Hailu Garden is a deep mansion. It is inconvenient for her to come, since Ying'er has broken off with the past, although she misses her former sisters, but after all, people are terrible, and she is afraid that she will ruin the reputation of the prince, so she ...... It's a rare sight. β
"Don't worry! This prince has promised Miss Lu today that she can come here at any time, and you can also go to Tianxiangtai to reunite at any time. Yu Wenxun said generously.
"Really?" Ying'er was very happy, but still said: "This is still not good." β
"If this son says it's okay, it's okay!"
"The prince shouldn't have taken a fancy to my senior sister, right? Hee-hee-" Ying'er Jiaojiao laughed.
Yu Wenxun pinched Ying'er's blown-up face, and joked with bad intentions: "It's okay, Ying'er is a matchmaker, this world has taken you both in, just so you can also reunite, hahaha......"
In the peach orchard, Qin Cheng and Zhu Xuanzhi's brothers were drinking tea.
"I heard that Lu Weixi, who has recently become famous, has released a word that he wants to invite people from Chang'an who understand music and rhythm to go to the exchange, and the first invitation is to invite Shiziyu Wenxun. Where does he know any rhythm, he knows a little more than your senior brother and me. Qin Cheng said with a teacup.
After hearing this, Zhu Xuanzhi smiled and said: "Senior brother, don't worry, next time if a master among the masters comes to Chang'an to ask for advice, you will definitely be indispensable." β
"That is, your senior brother and I don't dare to brag about anything else, but when it comes to martial arts competition, if I am missing, I won't agree." Qin Cheng said unyieldingly.
"There will be a lot of guests invited by Lu Weixi in the future, most of them are not very fluent, let's wait to see the show." Zhu Xuanzhi said mysteriously.
"Fun? Whose? Have something to do with us? Qin Cheng asked curiously.
"It has nothing to do with us." Zhu Xuanzhi didn't answer Qin Cheng directly, but asked, "Did Your Majesty talk to you about me?" β
"Oh, if you don't ask, I'll tell you, Your Majesty saw the land obtained by the Great Situ Liang and the inventory of the temple that day. The property and other things were given to Yuwen Hu's people again, and there were very few things in the hands of the people, and the mood seemed to be very heavy, so he found an opportunity to tell me when he was practicing martial arts. He said he didn't want to wait, and said that I would come to you secretly in the future. Qin Cheng said.
"Hmph, abolishing the Buddha is a long-term plan, Yuwen Hu just wants to take the opportunity to collect taxes and collect money, and when His Majesty takes power in person in the future, he will have another great plan to abolish the Buddha for the benefit of the people." Zhu Xuanzhi said coldly.
"I said that you are just working hard, why don't you just tell him that you are Zhao ......" Qin Cheng didn't finish his words, and was stopped by Zhu Xuanzhi with a stern gaze. Then he said: "Let you know, it's already a helpless move, I have already taken a lot of risk and made a lot of determination, if I let the people of Yuwen Hu know that I have dealings with Your Majesty, whether it is the identity of the orphan of the Zhao family or Mr. Denglong, it will bring death to Your Majesty, to Qingshi, and to all those who know my identity, which is the last thing I want to see." β
"Alright! It's all up to you, but I'm not afraid of anything involved. Qin Cheng said helplessly.
"Hey...... There are already too many people who have died, and those who can survive should be allowed to live well," Zhu Xuanzhi was silent for a long time before he said: "Senior brother, please go back and tell Your Majesty that I am going to do it recently." β
"Who?" Qin Cheng asked.
Zhu Xuanzhi looked into the distance and put down the teacup. And did not speak.
In the next few days, Lu Weixi, who was in Tianxiangtai, sent out several invitations one after another, inviting many people to go to the Youlan Pavilion in his new home. Because the imperial court has a system: officials are forbidden to go to Fireworks Willow Lane.
The movement of Tianxiangtai last time was too big, so Weixi had to change to a chic courtyard to live in. Following Shizi Yu Wenxun, the next ones are Gongzi Yu Wenshen, Dazong Bo Yuanxin, Yu Wenruo and Dugu Zhen, as well as Ximen Bai, the doctor in the Heavenly Palace.
Since he invited the prince Yuwenxun, then Yuwen must be invited late at night, otherwise it is clear that Yuwenshen is not taken into account, and Yuwenshen's treatment after going is naturally similar to that of his eldest brother, good tea, good wine, good songs, and then sent out as a gift. Dazong Bo Yuanxin prides himself on being an elegant person of poetry and wine, not only a frequent visitor to the streets of the fan market, but also often holds a feast at home, and raises a large number of singing and dancing girls for him to enjoy.
Since playing on the Tianxiang jade platform to see Lu Weixi's singing and dancing, other dance music is difficult to enter Yuan Xin's eyes, this time invited by Lu Weixi, he happily went to Youlanxi, not only listened to Weixi's music, but also communicated with Weixi for a long time, the two also talked very happily, Weixi also appreciated the piano skills of this great uncle, and finally, Yuan Xin was happy to come, and returned proudly.
As for Dugu Zhen and Yu Wenruo going to Youlanxue, that is to catch up.
"Miss Lu, since Jinling, the girl's song makes me haunt my dreams." Yu Wenruo said.
"Is it the song that haunts you, or is it the beauty that makes you forget?" Dugu Zhen will not let him go anywhere.
"You...... Miss Lu is so beautiful as a fairy, is there anything wrong with making people unforgettable? Yu Wenruo retorted.
When Weixi saw the two of them like this, he smiled and said: "When I was in Jinling, the two sons and Mr. Zhu were together, and they often quarreled and joked. β
When Yu Wenruo heard this, he pointed at Dugu Zhen and said: "He, I call me for any bad things, and I usually eat alone when there are good things." β
"Each otherβ" Dugu Zhen said angrily.
"How is Mr. Bamboo? Mr. Wen is not in good health, I wonder if he is better now? Weixi asked.
"Sir, everything is fine, now my family's Taoyuan lives, Miss Weixi can go and see it when she has time." Dugu Zhen said.
Weixi didn't answer, why didn't she want to go, but since Mr. Zhu entrusted him with big things, he did his best, and he also wanted to do a good job for him.
"Miss Weixi talked about confidants just now, Mr. Zhu used two pennies to mock the kings and grandsons of Jinling, if it wasn't for Miss Weixi to understand the meaning of Mr., how could there be such a good story, Miss Weixi and Mr. are confidants." Yu Wenruo talked about the past.
Yu Wenruo's words just touched Lu Weixi's heart. Presumably, I will never forget that thin and handsome figure for the rest of my life.
Among the domineering princes and nobles, in front of the rich businessmen and giants who spent a lot of money, a man who seemed to be weak but as stable as a mountain, with two pennies between his fingers, put them in a brocade plate full of gold, silver and jewelry, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "In the next two literary money, the girl's song "Bai Lu Weixi" ......" In the laughter, his face did not change, and he was unmoved by mockery and contempt.
Thank God for letting me meet him, letting me stop him that night, letting myself join forces with him, in the flashy Jinling City, in the drunken fireworks, join hands to humiliate those who think they are noble.
"What kind of prince will Xiangning?" Since he was a child, his family was poor, the world was chaotic, and he couldn't help himself, so he was bought and sold and left in the dust. But I have never felt that I am inferior to others, nor have I felt that others are nobler than myself. Although he was touted by thousands of people, he knew in his heart that in the hearts of thousands of people, he was a lowly kabuki after all, and he was a plaything in the eyes of those people after all. Only Mr. Bamboo, the leader of the Lantern Society, the ambitious prodigy, regarded himself as a true friend for the first time. If he hadn't trusted him with important things this time, how difficult would it be to meet each other......
Lu Weixi was silent for a long time before he said slowly: "The past years, Gongzi still remembers." Mr. is a genius, such as in the clouds, Weixi is just a piece of dust, where dare to be a confidant with Mr., just ordinary friends. β
"Did Miss Weixi and Mr. Zhu know each other for a long time?" Dugu Zhen couldn't help asking.
"When Mr. and the two traveled to Jinling, we were first acquaintances, and later Weixi also went to Yizhou a few times and visited Mr. a few times. I also met several times in Jingzhou. Weixi said lightly.
"Oh-so, it seems that the girl and the gentleman are still fateful." Yu Wenruo said with a smile.
"Fate? Fate...... I'm afraid it's the most difficult thing in the world. Weixi thought silently in his heart.
