Wen Xiaoming, who lived in Lu's Restaurant, sat in front of the window in every possible way, looking at the few crowds on the road. There was half a jar of wine on the table and a plate of side dishes brewed, which was very boring, and I felt that Taiping City was very different from what I remembered. The Taiping City in my memory is full of flowers, but now it is deserted and I don't like it. The boy who likes to be lively feels that Taiping City really can't stay anymore, and it was quite interesting to have a Ren Yan behind him earlier.

Looking at the window, I suddenly kept shaking my head, and I don't know how that silly girl appeared in my mind. Being dressed up by my sister is not as cute as before, and there are really few women in the world who look rude. At least it's much better than the so-called fairies on the rivers and lakes, at least it's not so contrived. That is, if you don't give up on yourself, everything else is good, especially if you are very rich. Although I have chased a long way, whenever the shriveled purse makes people sad, there will always be an inadvertent pouch that becomes bulging.

After thinking for a long time, he quickly shook his head and said, "I'm fucking crazy, what do you want to do with a stinky girl, where is more important than drinking." ”

The old shopkeeper, who didn't need to entertain guests, heard the young man's voice from a distance, and a smile appeared on his face, how could he not see that the young man still took the good-looking girl to heart. It's just that he doesn't know it, and he remembers that when he passed by the door, he heard a stinky girl in the young man's dream, and the smile on his face couldn't be stopped.

I thought to myself: "The young man is really in the midst of blessings and does not know the blessings, that is like the old man me." ”

took a bowl and sat next to Wen Xiaoming, and sat down with a grinning old face. said: "The little young master and the old man begged for a glass of wine." Although he said that he had poured the wine into the bowl, he naturally didn't think that the young man disagreed, and he didn't count his age as a man. There are a lot of things that two men can talk about together, especially in the best location of the restaurant.

Leaning lazily against the wall, Wen Xiaoming said: "Shopkeeper, you said that the emperor's power is great, and a good city is not just a dead woman?" Do you need to mobilize the people? There is no place for the master to have fun. ”

In the past few days, I have really gotten used to Wen Xiaoming's unscrupulous words, otherwise if such a big rebellion is not sentenced, he will have to sit in prison for the rest of his life, and he will not have to come out. Before the wine reached his mouth, he immediately put it down and hurriedly said: "My little master can't talk nonsense, don't say it anymore, it's scared to death of the old man." That is, he can call himself by Wen Xiaoming's side.

I still underestimate in my heart that this young man never speaks beyond his brain, and he will say whatever comes to mind. Wen Xiaoming yawned out the window and said, "Don't say it, don't say it." Didn't you just say something, as for being so scared? People are going to die, and death is the same as being cold. ”

I really feel that the shopkeeper is very boring, and there is no Yang Chen, who has mediocre kung fu. Although people are not very good, but when they talk to their appetite, drink some wine and talk from heaven to earth, is that what is called chatting? You said that you are old, and there is no young man who can speak, and you have lived for decades in vain.

He said to the old shopkeeper: "You said that you used to sit here and often see the girls passing by, but I have been sitting for two days, and I can't see any of them." Are you lying to me, the master's sword is waiting to be unsheathed? It is easy to rust if it is not out of the sheath. It was really Wen Xiaoming, who was sitting opposite, and it would have been another person to change to another person. Otherwise, the shopkeeper will have to talk about experience, but it's a pity that it's a real sword.

The scoundrel took the wine jar and touched the old shopkeeper's small wine bowl and said, "Why hasn't my sister come today?" ”

"Today, Concubine Xin went to the funeral, and most of the people went to see her off, that is, the old man was too lazy to go. Ju said that Concubine Xin Niangniang was the first concubine to be buried with the queen's etiquette since the founding of the Great Liang Dynasty, and the mausoleum was not far from the Huangling. It is said that His Majesty wants to let Concubine Xin Niangniang be by his side for thousands of years, speaking of which, the most envied by women in the world is none other than Concubine Xin, what more can you ask for this husband. ”

Wen Xiaoming said it seriously, but he looked at the old shopkeeper in surprise and said: "I can't imagine that such sour words are what you always say, is it that you will marry the emperor as a woman in your next life." "A funny look on his face.

The old shopkeeper said very embarrassedly: "What nonsense do you say at a young age, look for a fight." Wen Xiaoming smiled. The old shopkeeper likes to chat with teenagers very much, and always feels dozens of years younger. There are no young rigidity, nor the arrogance of rich sons, but they are still easy to talk to.

Wen Xiaoming took the wine jar and glanced out the window, and there was a very old grandmother on the street, who was wearing a light yellow group with many golden hairpins on her head. The two walked side by side on the road, adding a lot of color to the plain street. The young man stared at the girl with straight eyes, and the old shopkeeper followed the young man's gaze, smiled faintly and took a sip of wine, feeling very delicious. The best wine in the world is not a delicious dish, but a beautiful girl in front of you, and bitter wine is better than sweet rain.

The two looked at each other and then went to see which girl was far away, but fortunately, the distance was a little far. The old shopkeeper said: "There is no dish in the world that is more delicious than beauty, and bad wine is better than Ganlin wine." ”

Looking at the old shopkeeper's ill-intentioned smile, Wen Xiaoming raised the wine jar in surprise and said, "What you always say is reasonable, the kid is sorry for not respecting you." The old shopkeeper didn't find out that Wen Xiaoming was not a master but a boy.

said to Wen Xiaomingtian's lips: "It's all experience, it's all experience." ”

The two clinked glasses, the elder brother and the younger brother called each other, how can there be age between men. After greeting each other, they found out which girl was actually missing, Wen Xiaoming sat on the window and watched again and again, but still didn't find it. As he was looking, he suddenly heard a shout from below: "Wen Xiaoming." Wen Xiaoming was so frightened that he almost sat on the ground, it turned out that the good-looking girl was actually Ren Yan.

The old lady downstairs said, "Miss, let's go, Wen Shaoxia is still the same as before." ”

Ren Yan looked at Wen Xiaoming and shrunk her head, and said sourly: "Mama, I came to say goodbye to him, and the marriage contract was originally a joke from my father." I figured it out, and after saying goodbye to him, I followed Mama home. ”

Upstairs, Wen Xiaoming wanted to escape, but he had already stood up and wanted to go through the window. was pulled by the old shopkeeper, and Yulian explained that if Miss Ren came, she must not let Wen Xiaoming run away. So far from seeing that the girl in yellow was Miss Ren, he said something like that.

Wen Xiaoming couldn't push the old shopkeeper alive, and the old shopkeeper didn't know that the young man's martial arts couldn't stop him. As long as people want to leave, no one can stop them, and no one can stop them if they want to leave.

Ren Yan walked into the room and looked at Wen Xiaoming's funny appearance and didn't speak for a long time, but Wen Xiaoming smiled stupidly at the girl. I'm really not used to the fact that there are no colorful girls behind me, and I don't know what to say at this time.

Walking in red clothes and standing on the street with a white cloth, Yulian looked at the long motorcade. Hongyi said: "Sister, you said that if you can marry such a husband, you should be the envy of many women in the world." ”

Yulian squeezed into the crowd and could see countless people who came to see them off, most of them were women. A magnificent guard of honour departed from the palace and circled the city. Originally, there was no etiquette, and His Majesty the Emperor deliberately added them on the way of the honor guard. The young emperor once said to the equally young Concubine Xin, I will definitely take you to see every scenery in Taiping City. I always keep it in my heart, but unfortunately it is always an empty word. The biggest regret is the sea, but it is a pity that I can never see the vast sea.

Gently tapped the head of the red coat and said, "Don't mess around." His eyes were still staring at the long guard of honor, and his eyes were full of envy.

At the front were the children of the royal family, and many of the children of the royal family could not see any expressions. And then there was the Lin clan in Shuzhong, and after the death of Concubine Xin, Lin Xie filled in Lin Xin's name into the family tree. As the head of the Lin family, a woman who had been away from the head of the family for decades re-entered the family tree.

The burly man who accompanied Lin Xie felt guilty in his heart, and his face was expressionless and accompanied by his brother. Lin Xie said: "Your Majesty is indeed against the way of being a king. ”

The burly man said softly: "What, this is what Your Majesty owes to the little sister." It was supposed to be the queen's honor, but now it's just a ceremonial burial. "His expression was calm with a hint of anger. Once Lin Xie took the Lin family in Shuzhong to ascend the throne, which was different from Liu Ce. Why don't you have the heart to let Concubine Xin wear the phoenix crown, and the king of Qi is the crown prince of the dynasty. Lin Xie has no complaints about the queen over the years, but it does not mean that the Lin family in Shuzhong has no complaints about the emperor.

The two stayed together for a long time without speaking, and the burly man said, "Hasn't King Qi come back yet?" ”

Lin Xie shook his head and said, "There is already a big chaos in the north, and Liu Ce has already led the troops over." I'm afraid things are not so simple, and King Qi will return to Beijing soon. is not for the mother concubine to hang filial piety, but to do things unfavorably, if it is not for the death of Concubine Xin, I am afraid that the Manchu Dynasty civil and military is not easy to speak. From the actions of the two Shangshu, it can be seen that His Royal Highness King Qi has done many things that even I don't know. Even if he is not grounded when he returns to Beijing this time, I am afraid that he will never have the opportunity to participate in the government again, and five years will be in vain. ”

The burly man was not talking, knowing that now was not the time to say this. I could only wait for the King of Qi to come back and make plans, but I didn't expect that a heavy snowfall would not only interrupt the emperor's southern expedition, but also cut off the road to the ascent of the King of Qi. The man looked at the coffin and regretted not seeing his little sister. The man is Lin Zhong's father, Lin Kui, the second master of Shuzhong, and he is also a state assassin.

In the palace, the gray-haired emperor sat in the Qinglin Palace, with a xylophone opposite him, his eyes glazed and wooden. It's as if there's a familiar person sitting in front of you, but that person will never sit in front of you. Who else played the xylophone in front of me, and the tunes in my memory echoed one after another in my ears.

Gently stroking the xylophone, he said, "I still have a lot of things to do, why do you want to leave me early." I said I'd take you further south of Daliang, where there is a vast expanse of the sea. Only the sea is worthy to listen to the music you play, and the sound of the piano must be heard all over the sky. ”

The quiet Qinglin Hall gradually dimmed, and Gonggong Wei, who was guarding outside the hall, said, "Your Majesty is getting dark. ”

The emperor's body looked older and older, and one thing after another pressed on his heart. His Majesty the Emperor is only a few months old, and he seems to be much older. After a heavy snowfall, there were many fewer words in the court, and only a few people were still talking about the Nanjing Arsenal. The emperor, who is not as good as his body day by day, rarely talks about Southern Chu, and now he cares most about the north.

got up and walked out of the hall door and placed a few begonia flowers outside the door, which was the favorite thing in front of Concubine Xin, and did not follow the burial. Everything in the Qinglin Hall is still the same, but many people have changed and some are gone. Gonggong Wei stood beside the emperor and pointed to the begonia and said, "Your Majesty's flowers are blooming, and they look very beautiful." ”

The emperor smiled rarely, reaching out to caress the fragile flowers. The gorgeous flowers were as if the beloved woman had been so delicate from beginning to end, and she straightened up and looked back at the xylophone placed in the center of the hall, and there was no sound of the piano.
