Peach Blossom Village is as peaceful as ever, and the teenager's departure from the Taoyuan wooden table is much less fun. Under the summer sunset, the three girls sat quietly with big eyes and stared at each other, and the warm tea had already cooled. One less person seems to have lost a lot, the always lively little flower looked at Yulian, Xiuwen wandered out of the world, which teenager in his heart would not be disappointed when he saw him getting married, I don't think about it. Subconsciously glanced at Yulian, feeling a little sour in her heart.

Suddenly, he found the two of them staring at him and asked, "What's wrong with my face, is there something?" ”

Xiuwen immediately dodged, Xiaohua dragged her cheeks and said, "Sister Yulian, Brother Liu, has been living in your house, and must have told you a lot of stories about Taiping City, tell me a few." ”

looked at Xiaohua and said: "He has never told me a story, where do you know what Taiping City is like, it's okay to make up a story, Sister Wen, I'm far behind." ”

Touching the black hair thoughtfully, it will be his eighteenth birthday in a few days. The wedding date is approaching, and if any teenager does not show up, there is still some hope for the wedding in a few months. The parents at home never cared about their feelings, and never asked themselves if they were willing to marry a rough man. The other party's family is wealthy, and he has a good hand to fight with all his strength. In fact, it is a good family business, but the man is really not handsome in appearance, only a body of tendon meat.

Thinking of this, he suddenly asked: "I don't know if Liu Zhixing will come when he returns to the army and waits for the day I get married." ”

Listening to the words without intention, Yulian looked at Xiuwen. Xiaohua also looked at Sister Wen incredulously, never thinking about missing Brother Liu and Sister Wen. Xiuwen, who has always hated Liu Zhixing, said such things today, which seemed very strange.

Yulian looked at Xiuwen with a pair of bright eyes and asked, "Do you like Liu Zhixing?" ”

The fleshy face suddenly turned slightly red, and he retorted without thinking at all: "Nonsense, how can I like that bastard Liu Zhixing, it's Yulian's sister who misses Liu Gongzi." ”

Xiaohua, who mentioned curiosity, climbed on the table and stared at Xiuwen with half of her body, and suddenly smiled: "Sister Wen won't wait for Brother Liu to grab her kiss, it must be fun." ”

Although it was a joke, Yulian took it seriously, and I didn't know if I liked Liu Zhixing. It's just that when I heard Xiuwen's words, I felt a little bitter in my heart. If there is no marriage contract, whether he chooses the son of the Zhang family, or Liu Zhixing, who has only been with him for more than three months. Although Liu Zhixing claims to be a wealthy nobleman, Yulian doesn't want this. Zhang Bai is actually very good, but he feels that he is not worthy of the Zhang family on the rich side, not to mention that Zhang Bai is very knowledgeable, if it weren't for the fact that his mother and Mrs. Zhang's family had a good relationship in their early years and set this marriage contract, would Zhang Bai have taken a fancy to a peasant girl?

said: "Sister Wen Liu Zhixing him." ”

"I know he likes you, and you like him. It's just that you and Zhang Bai still have a marriage contract, ask yourself who you like. still likes Liu Zhixing, and Pianpian wants to marry Zhang Bai. ”

I never thought that Xiuwen would be angry, so he said directly: "I like Liu Zhixing, I know that I am worthy of him." With a few months to get married, don't you have the right to like someone else? I won't rob you of Yulian, but you should think about who you want to marry. Since ancient times, no woman has married two husbands, and only one of them can be chosen. ”

looked nervous and angry but couldn't find a reason to refute it his father said that if he liked liu zhixing, he would say it. But he still couldn't let go of Zhang Bai in his heart, and shouted: "Don't say it anymore, I will marry Zhang Bai, he is my fiancé." ”

Xiuwen looked at Yulian's appearance and hugged her boudoir close friend tightly from behind, in fact, she didn't know why she did this, and said, "Yulian I'm sorry, I'm excited." It's just that I'm unwilling, it's me who marries, and that's a lifetime thing. It's someone who has lived with me for the rest of my life, not someone who has lived with my parents for the rest of my life. I want to marry a man I like, not the one they picked. ”

Holding Yulian tightly, tears crossed her cheeks and landed on her clothes, and Yulian was angry and calm. I never knew which man Xiuwen never wanted to marry, and said, "Didn't you talk about it with Daddy He?" ”

"Do you think everyone thinks about their daughter like Uncle Ji? My mom and dad can't wait to marry me off right now. If it weren't for the rules of the village, they would all be mothers of children now. ”

Xiaohua didn't understand why Yulian He Xiuwen was crying, but she only knew that she was playing around and now she didn't know what to say. Yulian said: "I don't know if they can come on the day you get married, maybe there will be a way." ”

Xiuwen looked at Yulian and said, "You mean He Liu Zhixing, the son of the Zhang family, what's the use of them coming." ”

The girl looked into the distance and said, "I don't know what they're doing now." ”

Dressed in white and carrying a long sword on his back, he looked at the young man who was exhausted. Pulling the reins tightly, he asked, "Is Xiao Wu tired?" ”

The young man, whose back was already soaked, gasped and said, "The young master is not tired, and he can still hurry." ”

Zhang Bai turned off the horse and led the horse to the side of the road, and said: "Little five, everyone has a limit, if you can't say it, don't hold on." Come here, rest, rest and then hurry, I haven't played for more than half a month, and I don't feel a little disgusted. ”

Xiao Wu led the horse to tie it to the branch, took off the dry cake and handed it to the young master, Zhang Bai smiled slightly. Xiao Wu tore off a small piece and chewed it, and drank it in a big gulp. Looking at the gentle young master, he doesn't look like a scholar now, and he is still young, and his beard has not grown. The young master's beard is already very long, and his appearance is a little more similar to the old man.

"What are you looking at, is there something wrong with me?"

swallowed the dry cake in his mouth and said, "Young master, let's go to study, let's tidy it up first, your beard is so long." "Fingers make long and short shapes.

Zhang Bai gently stroked the long stiff beard on his chin, and now he realized that he actually had a beard. He smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, tomorrow we should approach Kunling Mountain." There should be an inn at the foot of the mountain, and tomorrow it will definitely be a handsome young man. ”

The scholar just nodded heavily, as if what the young master said was not wrong. As long as it is a young master, everything is right, and it has been like this since childhood, and it is even more so now. Zhang Bai asked a little dazedly: "Don't you think that young master, I am a little narcissistic?" Xiao Wu just smiled.

The young man in white put down the water bladder and touched his cheek and said secretly, "Am I really so handsome?" Even men like it when they see it. ”

Hearing the young master's words, he directly squirted out of his mouth, and he didn't know what happened to the young master. Since I met Liu Zhixing, I feel like a different person, not so old-fashioned, and I have more intimate words with myself. But the young master is still like that, and he will only say these words to himself.

Swallowing the dry cake, Zhang Bai turned over and said, "I must feel Kunling Mountain before dark." ”

Xiao Wu swallowed anxiously and asked, "Young Master, don't be in such a hurry." ”

Zhang Bai rode a horse and galloped: "I saw a lot of literati along the way, all of them went to Kunling Villa, and tomorrow should be Mr. Zhou's birthday." ”

In the early morning of the second day, before dawn, the huge mountain master at the foot of Kunling Mountain. Two young servants stood guard at the gate early, waiting for the guests who came. An old man in his sixties looked into the distance, and today every year is the most lively time in the whole Zhuangzi. The children of the main family scattered all over the country only go home today, and Zhou Wen has three disciples all over the world. It is also the patriarch of the three dynasties of the Great Liang, and His Majesty will respectfully call the old man when he sees the old man today.

At the age of seventy, he has already gray hair, and he is seventy years old. The second son of the third year was corrupted by a county, and he let the entire Liang know what was 100,000 snowflakes of silver in the Qing Governor's Mansion in three years. The whole family should have been implicated, but His Majesty only said: "If a person makes a mistake, he doesn't have to implicate his family." For a while, officialdom was calling His Majesty's life, and only the old man knew that His Majesty was not helpless.

The bureaucrats all over Daliang did not necessarily respect His Majesty, but Zhou Wen, who was located in Longtian County, west of Taiping City. Although he did not serve as an official in the court, he still had the position of a pillar of the country, and he once served as a scholar of the Ministry of Rites and a scholar of Wenge University. One person represents the lineage of Liang Wenzong, and even in private there is a tendency to become an ancestor and become holy. The Zhou family, one of the four wealthy nobles of the Great Liang, is one of them, and the eldest son Zhou Yingxiang is the official in charge of the world in the Ministry of Rites. The most proud disciple is the Great Liang Zaizhi Wang An, and many officials in the court have studied under the old man. The reputation of Wen Zhou Wulin has always been circulating in Daliang, and many literati have been criticizing how Lin Xie can be compared with Mr. Zhou Wen.

However, the old man didn't care about this matter at all, which made the entire Liang mention the old man and call him an old gentleman respectfully. The carriages and dignitaries are constantly coming and going, and the court may not be so lively.

The two teenagers approached the gate of Kunling Villa, and each carriage walked out of the figure, which was not a big man who covered the sky with one hand. Zhang Baihe had seen such a big scene, and he held the letter written by Liu Zhixing tightly. I didn't know that I could enter this gate with just a letter, and I was afraid that my position was too low, and I was embarrassed to approach this gate today. Especially the scholar Xiaowu was a little hesitant, and the Zhang family was also a big family in Qinghe. But it's a world of difference.

asked, "Young Master, can we go in?" ”

Zhang Bai gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go." ”

Approaching the gate and looking for a long time to enter, more than 30 servants immediately stopped and said, "Is there an invitation?"

The young man's courage was never lacking, and he said: "There is no invitation, there is a letter, and the old gentleman will let him in when he sees it." ”

"Oh, a letter. I don't know whose letter has such a great weight, whether it is the current Zaizhi or the Hanlin Scholar. ”

Zhang Bai shook his head and said, "It's a young man named Liu Zhixing." ”

I didn't look at it anymore, and the young man turned his head and walked towards a high-ranking official, and he never took out the letter. never thought it would be such a scene, Xiao Wu only sighed. But I didn't know that an old man who looked sloppy and dressed very plainly came over. After only a few steps, a young man who was no more than fifteen or sixteen years old walked up and shouted respectfully, "Two brothers, please stay." ”

Dressed in a light blue green shirt, his appearance looks a little immature. Xiao Wu was originally turned away and angry, and the young man couldn't help but say: "You came to see my young master's jokes, since you see it, let's leave." ”

The young man said very respectfully: "Don't misunderstand, it's my husband who heard that the two of you know Liu Zhixing and Liu Gongzi." ”

Zhang Bai was calm, Xiao Wu always felt that Liu Zhixing came to Taiping City. I never thought it was a child of a wealthy family, but now it seems that I know who I am. Zhang Bai stopped the scholar and said: "I have a relationship with Brother Liu, I don't know who the little brother and Brother Liu are." ”

looked very shy and said: "My Liu Gongzi is not very familiar, it is my husband." ”

The scruffy old man strode in, with fluffy black hair and a delicate beard. Looking at the two teenagers, Zhang Bai saw that the old man was only in his forties, and he looked almost over fifty years old. Respectfully arched his hand and said softly: "Xiaosheng Zhang Bai, I don't know if Mr. has anything to ask." ”

opened his mouth and said with a mouthful of yellow teeth: "I just heard that the little brother said that there was a letter from Liu Zhixing just now." ”

Zhang Bai took out a letter of no more than a few hundred words and handed it to the old man, looked at the words in his hand and said: "It is indeed the words of that kid, but there are so many words that there is no old man for me." It's really unkind, I haven't known how to write a letter to the old man for more than a year. ”

folded the letter and handed it to Zhang Bai and then said: "I don't dare to say that I want Zhou Wen's old thing to be accepted as a student, at least I can see it." Come with me. ”

The old man walked ahead, and Zhang Bai was dumbfounded. Dare to call Mr. Zhou Wenzhou an old thing, this person's identity is extraordinary. Thinking about it, Liu Zhixing has never deceived himself, but in fact, he didn't say many things, such as the old man in front of him. The young man shouted: "The two brothers are not leaving, there will be no seats for a while." ”

Zhang Bai immediately followed Qian and said, "I don't know who this gentleman is." ”

"Oh, you said my husband. He's a bachelor of the Hallym Academy, and you've heard of it. Mr. Zhou Wen likes my husband's article very much, that sentence: The thousand-year-old article reads the sage, and the hundred-year-old poem looks at the double clothes. ”

Some were shocked that Liu Zhixing's identity was really a military general, how could a big man like Shuangshang know a teenager. I saw the young man laughing and talking: "I'm afraid Brother Tai doesn't know yet, although Liu Zhixing is rumored to be the fourth son of Taiping." These four sons are not a good reputation, they are very good. Among the four sons, Liu Gongzi became famous at a young age, and once almost became a closed-door student of the old gentleman. It's just that I ran away after two years of study, especially my husband, who felt that it was a pity that he had to join the army when he should have closed his door to do his studies. ”

More and more curious about this young man, the Guozijian Bachelor also has at least four grades. Could it be that Liu Zhixing's family background is so big, and he asked solemnly: "Then Brother Liu." ”

The young man glanced at it and said, "You want to ask Liu Gongzi how he met my husband when he was less than twenty years old, many of Liu Gongzi's friends have questions." The squire of the Lu State Public Military Department can't control my husband's head, that's because my husband likes Liu Gongzi very much, especially when he drinks and is heroic. ”

It wasn't until he walked to the inner courtyard that Zhang Bai remembered that he had never asked the boy's name: "I don't know Brother Tai." ”

The young man smirked: "I have the same surname as my brother Tai, and I was changed by Mr. to a big name, Wenzheng." ”
