Chapter 113: For Whom Wind Dew Stands Midnight
A person who can sell a jar of wine for four dollars in the business war, let himself touch his nose, and let the flower building return with feathers is convincing enough, not to mention that even the official family and the queen of the country have been invited.
Even if the invitation is a piece of straw paper, it is enough to shock everyone, and it is worth a thousand yuan.
As soon as Liu's mother got the news from Martin, she anxiously went to the painting boat to look for Xu Yanhua, waiting left and right, the maid next to Xu Yanhua came over to ask what was the matter, and Liu's mother gave a letter to explain a few words and left.
The maid waited until Xu Yanhua finished rehearsing a dance before handing over the letter and said: "Lady, it's also interesting for you to look at this Jiangqing Pavilion, and at the fifteenth hour of the lunar month, she will appear in a new drama, and invite the princes and ministers' wives, even the official family and the queen of the country to go, this is planning to come to the Huajian Building, to the lady." ”
Xu Yanhua pondered for a moment and said, "This is really interesting, but what are you afraid of?" Wouldn't it be better for them to leave the Qinhuai River. Xiaomeng, you go and tell Mother Liu, let her ask who this so-called new pear orchard has invited, as long as the people we want to invite don't take the bait, we don't have to worry too much about such trivial matters. Does she think Jiang Qingguan can play any tricks by changing his career to do opera? In the end, she smashed her own foot, didn't it save her troubles. ”
"Yes, the lady said very much, how many men in Jiangning City want to worship under your pomegranate skirt, and they are afraid that they will not succeed."
Zhen Feng was deeply involved in the rehearsal, and after waiting for most of the day, he found that there was no big action in Huajian Building. Is she very confident in Xu Yanhua's charm, or does Mother Liu have a ghost in her heart? Originally, I wanted to put the contradiction in front and extinguish the fire from the flower building in advance, but I ended up punching the cotton.
In the middle of the night, there was still rehearsals in the house. Zhen Feng stepped on the cold moonlight and breathed a few breaths of cold air in the corridor on the second floor.
The Wei Ruan can be removed, but it is still one last trembling to pull it out. It's just that he is really not sure if the landing can completely clear the suspicion. In this Jiangning City, there is not only Wei Ruan, but also the Little Elder, Fan Ruoshui, and the elusive army, at least three different forces, and maybe there are more that he doesn't know.
He walked to the edge of the courtyard wall to see the city at night, but found a carriage that could be described as "luxurious" parked in the corner, and a young man wrapped in a thick fur coat stood beside the carriage, quietly listening to the sound of the flute and chirping from the house.
So quiet, so exquisite, as if a fine brushstroke: the bereaved and independent beautiful son, and a beautiful woman in the courtyard, love across the wall.
It didn't look like it was sent by Huajian Lou, Zhen Feng couldn't help but feel teasing, and said loudly: "It seems that this star is not last night, for whom is the wind showing up for midnight." ”
The boy was slightly startled and looked up at the place where the voice came from. It's a pity that the light is too weak, and Zhen Feng can't see the other party's face clearly.
When the son saw it, he boarded the carriage to leave, Zhen Feng smiled and said: "Childe is slow, why do you have to leave after listening to the lyrics and songs of the qin flute?" ”
The carriage stopped on the spot, and after being silent for a while, a sentence came from the carriage: "This Lang Jun has something to say, why don't you come and talk about it." ”
This voice is very good, as if it is a teenager who has not changed his voice, clear as water. Zhen Feng didn't expect this person to overhear it, so he said: "In this case, the officials will wait a while, and go down for a while." ”
Zhen Feng walked to the side of the carriage, and a sentence came from the car: "I don't know the official in my life, so I don't invite the official to get on the car." I think that the poem just now is very poignant, but I have never heard it, so I take the liberty to ask the instructor, can you share the whole poem with you? ”
"It's said that the friendship is shallow and deep, at least there is a shallow friendship, but it's a pity that even the son has never seen it, does the son think that such a person is in the car and a person is talking about poetry outside the car?"
"It's all Pingshui meeting, why should the so-called encounter have been acquainted, and what is the difference between inside and outside the car."
"I'm just curious, what kind of son will be attracted by the music in this courtyard, if it's a bosom friend, I want to ask someone to come into the courtyard for some guidance."
Zhen Feng said, and sat next to the driver who was driving the car without hesitation, and said, "Let's go, since it's better not to see the son, then talk while walking, just send me home." ”
At this time, the coachman's eyes suddenly widened angrily, as if he was about to drive Zhen Feng away at any time. A sentence came from the car: "That's it, let's go." It's not too early, so it's okay to give it a ride. ”
On the way, the boy in the car asked, "When the official came out of the courtyard, I don't know why there was constant music in the courtyard?" ”
"It's called 'New Pear Garden', and there's going to be the first show in the middle of the month, and they're rehearsing at the moment."
"I don't know if the official is a musician or a servant?"
"I'm nothing, just a soy sauce maker."
The official laughed. I don't know what repertoire is being rehearsed in the courtyard, and I'm very curious. ”
"I don't know about this, why don't I take you in and have a look?"
The two tested each other, but did not reveal dry goods to each other. At this time, the carriage came to a secluded and open place, the coachman obviously raised his vigilance, and Zhen Feng was still laughing, but a group of people suddenly appeared on both sides of the road, about a dozen or so, and each knife was unsheathed.
The coachman suddenly pulled out the knife hidden under the car like a stimulated leopard, and Zhen Feng realized that the coachman was really not a good stubble. At present, people are robbing money, and how can they encounter such an unlucky thing when they take a ride.
"Son, sit down, sprinkle the family to take care of these men, and come."
The coachman jumped out of the carriage with his knife in his hand, and rushed forward, but the men did not hesitate to come forward, but fought and retreated, and turned into a nearby alley.
Zhen Feng hurriedly acted as a temporary coachman and drove forward, and suddenly he found that he was also surrounded, and there was more than the group of people in front of the carriage. The carriage came to a hard stop.
A person in front of the carriage shouted with a lewd smile: "Hahaha, if you know each other, go with Lao Tzu obediently, so that Lao Tzu can use weapons." ”
"Turn the tiger away from the mountain, your coachman has been tricked. Hurry, come out! Zhen Feng had already pulled up the curtain, grabbed the boy's hand and dragged it out: "There's still time in the back, hurry up!" If you don't leave, it's too late! ”
Zhen Feng didn't have time to look at the son's appearance, and he didn't pay attention to the boy's struggle, so he jumped out of the carriage and ran back. However, there were more than a dozen people surrounding the carriage, and gradually formed a circle, leaving little space for them.
"Run, hurry!"
The boy ran a little slowly, and he also put on a hat, Zhen Feng couldn't help but pull him with more strength. There were some houses not far from the road, and Zhen Feng took the boy and ran inside, at least to avoid the surrounding horses.
The black light blinded, and the two stumbled. The man who was chasing him was not far behind.
Zhen Feng's heart was about to jump out, and he didn't know what the consequences would be if he was caught. As he ran, he used his other hand to remove the small cloth bag from his waist. He suddenly let go of the boy's arm, just as the boy was stunned for a moment, thinking that the other party was going to get rid of him and run away, but Zhen Feng suddenly turned around and shot at the chasing person with a small crossbow arrow in his hand.
Zhen Feng doesn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, he can't see the figure clearly, so he shoots casually, anyway, this is a repeater, and the road is narrow. Sure enough, three short arrows were fired, and three wails sounded, and the chasing people stopped and began to be vigilant and protective.
Zhen Feng took the opportunity to pull up the stunned son again, and turned into an alley in front of him in a flash.
