Chapter 19: Old Things
The story takes place in Jinling a hundred years ago.
A hundred years ago, on the ninth day of the second lunar month, the Jinling Poetry Society.
Once a year, the Jinling Poetry Club has many young men or young ladies in the boudoir who are looking for someone who is in love, so they talked in pairs before the poetry meeting began.
There are two exceptions to this – one is a young man in black, who neither writes poetry nor talks to others.
He rested one hand on the table, his chin propped up, and looked lazily at the others.
The other was the woman in red sitting beside him.
The woman in red glanced at him and continued to write herself. The young man in black noticed the inquiring eyes of the woman in red, and turned to stare at the woman in red.
The woman in red sat up straight, her eyes not squinting, and she didn't seem to pay attention to this very impolite look.
But the young man in black noticed that her hand holding the pen was trembling slightly.
The rules of the Jinling Poetry Club, a stick of incense time to write poems, to prevent cheating, after writing, according to the order of catching the lot, read the poems you wrote, the one with more votes wins.
The first few songs are decent, and there is nothing to comment on.
When he arrived at the young man in black, the young man changed his hand to support his chin to support the ground, opened the folding fan with his other hand, shook it for a while, and said proudly: "I'm too lazy to write." ”
The crowd was speechless, and they didn't bother to talk to him.
After all, it's not without a family that looks for posts every year to have fun here.
Next is the woman in red.
The woman in red got up slowly, and when she got up, three silver needles had already come out of her hand, and they all ran towards the door of the black-clothed young man.
Then the red sleeves were raised, and countless silver needles leaked out with a "whoosh".
The crowd didn't react to what was happening.
The young man raised his eyebrows, "snapped" put away the folding fan to block the first three silver needles, and then raised his foot to hook the table to the front of him, "Dangdang" The silver needles were all pierced on the table, and he himself was unscathed.
But the guests present were not so lucky, some reacted quickly and hid under the table, and some were pierced into hedgehogs without reacting.
The woman in red raised her hand again, and "swished" countless silver needles rushed towards the young man.
The boy drew his sword at his waist and blocked it back with a "clang". The woman in red drew the soft sword at her waist with an expressionless face and tangled with the young man.
During the entanglement, while the woman was unprepared, the young man reached out sideways and pinched the woman's waist, the woman's face turned red, her apricot eyes glared, and shouted: "Dengzi!" ”
The young man smiled and sighed a few times: "Madam, you have gained weight recently." ”
"You!" As soon as she heard the word "madam", the woman was even more annoyed, and the sword style became more and more fierce.
But the boy could see that although the sword style was fierce, it was becoming more and more chaotic.
The woman stabbed at the young man, and the young man turned to the side, turned behind the woman at some point, and pinched the woman's chest with ease.
The woman was annoyed and angry, and the sword in her hand fell unsteadily.
The young man kicked the woman down with a lift of his legs, and cut his hands behind his back.
Seeing that the woman was about to grit her teeth, the young man quickly raised his hand to remove the woman's chin.
The woman knelt on the ground and glared at the boy angrily.
The young man scooped up the woman: "Madam, what are you doing with such a big gift~ I said that I don't need to be so polite to my husband." ”
The woman was dumbfounded.
The guests who had just been hiding had not yet recovered from the shock of the incident just now.
The young man hugged the woman and said casually: "My wife has frightened you, and I will accompany you for my wife." There is no poison on the needle, just pull it out, and say goodbye. ”
As he spoke, he picked up the woman and walked out.
When the woman heard the word "husband", her eyes were eager to cut the young man with a thousand knives, and her mouth screamed "woo-woo".
The young man lowered his head, looked tender like water, and said softly: "If you call again, you will attract the second person, and when you see you and me like this, they will think that you and I have an adulterous relationship." Guess what the second child thinks. ”
The woman fell silent, her face turned even redder, and she still stared at the boy intently.
The young man grinned: "If you think I'm good-looking, you can watch it more, I don't mind my husband." ”
"Hmm! ()" The woman blushed and looked away from him, how did she feel as if she knew him before?
In the inn.
The woman in red knelt on the ground, her mouth was stuffed with a cloth, and she couldn't speak, so she could only use her eyes to Ling Chi over and over again.
The young man walked to the table and sat down, and poured himself a cup of herbal tea: "Don't struggle, the poison in your teeth has been washed away by Jing Hong." You said you were doing something bad to assassinate me.
"It's okay now, you can't survive or die, it's so pitiful." While sighing, he shook his head again and again with a pretended regret.
Then he said, "The second brother sent you?" ”
The woman simply stopped glaring at him, turned her head to the side, and sulked at herself.
The young man raised his hand and pulled the cloth out of the woman's mouth and asked, "What's your name?" ”
The woman ignored him.
The young man didn't care, and tilted his head: "Mo Xiaoqi, right?" I've seen you at the dick, do you like the dick? ”
Mo Xiaoqi suddenly turned his head and said coldly: "If you want to kill, you have to kill quickly, and don't slander my innocence." ”
The young man ignored it and said, "But the second child doesn't like you...... Otherwise, how could you be sent to death?
"He can let that someone else come, you know, it's not me talking about you, just find someone who has better martial arts and brains than you. But he let you come anyway.
What does this mean? People don't like you at all, they just let you come to explore the truth and the truth, he is here to send you to death. Whether you live or die, no one cares. ”
Mo Xiaoqi's eyes dimmed: "My life was given by His Second Highness, and if I die for His Second Highness, I can be regarded as a well-deserved death." ”
"But I care."
Hearing the steady breathing sound around him, Yan Chenyi closed his mouth, looked at the little man who was already asleep next to him, hooked the corners of his lips, and sighed in his heart.
Where is there no moon at night, where is there no bamboo and cypress? But there are few idlers like the ears of the two of us.
The tide is wide on both sides, and the moon is now dusty. The breeze is coming, and the water is not rippling.
"I'm sorry, Arnold, I didn't tell you the truth. You're not wrong, it's me, it's the way of the world, it's those who think they're high.
"But don't worry, I'll confess to you. I just don't know...... At that point, would you still be willing to be friends with a filthy man like me? What is the light of the moon...... It's just an illusion. ”
Yan Chenyi said softly, Ran Nuo hugged himself, his head rested on his knees, and the whole person shrank into a ball, he had already dreamed of Zhou Gong, and he didn't hear what Yan Chenyi said.
Ran Nuo didn't know that this originally inconsequential story had become a portrayal of her life.
In the cabin on the other side, He Qianyun had just finished vomiting, drank the medicine, and his body was slightly better, and he was just about to get up and was held down by Feng Suixin: "Where are you going?" ”
He Qianyun clutched his chest and said, enduring his nausea: "Go find my junior sister." ”
"She's with Chenyi."
"It's because I'm with him that I'm looking for it."
Feng casually stared into his eyes, and said helplessly: "You stop the meeting first, you yourself are half dead, and you still have to take care of others." Honestly, do you have an opinion about him? ”
"He" refers to Yan Chenyi.
He Qianyun replied frankly: "Yes." ”
Feng Suixin sighed: "You are all his subordinates, how can you still ......?"
He Qianyun glared at him, and Feng swallowed back the words casually: "I said that I am not his subordinate, I only do things for him." We just take what we need. ”
Feng waved his hand casually: "Okay, okay, you can do whatever you say, what you say is right." But...... Why do you think so much about him? ”
He Qianyun replied to the question: "Before leaving, the master said, 'Yan Chenyi is not only the medicine to save glutinous rice, but also the knife to kill her', I can't let her be half in danger." ”
The wind fell silent.
He Qianyun continued: "The word love, only if you don't understand it, it won't hurt. Glutinous rice has already been injured once, and I don't want her to be injured a second time. ”
What's more, Xiaonuo also said...... However, He Qianyun didn't say this, although he spit out the truth after drinking, it is not good for the truth to become true.
"I understand your feelings. It's just that...... Calm down. He is different from Feng Lingbai. "The wind is heart-wrenching.
He Qianyun snorted coldly, pursed his lips, and was a little disdainful: "What's the difference?" is the most ruthless emperor's family, and the people of the emperor's family are even more untrustworthy!
"The people of the emperor's family, the closer they get, the more ruthless they are injured. You say, how much truth can he have, and how much falsehood? ”
The wind drooped his eyes, the candlelight reflected on his face, and his eyelashes cast a shadow.
Yes, he is the most ruthless emperor, he knows better than anyone else, and he understands it better than anyone else.
Just when He Qianyun was about to struggle to get up again, Feng Suixin held him down again: "Ruizhi, if you believe me for the time being, he is really different from others."
"I grew up with Zehuai, he is a person who values love and righteousness, and will never do anything to hurt Xiaonuo.
"Besides, aren't they just friends? Where do you think you're going?
"You see that they talk so speculatively, just like you and me, it is rare to have a few confidants in life, Xiaonuo must be very happy.
"I assure you, Zehuai will never hurt Xiaonuo, and he will never think anything wrong.
"Besides, if they are really affectionate, according to Xiaonuo's stubborn temper, it is useless for you to stop them. Don't you Taoists pay attention to any fate?
"You, you, you don't even understand yourself, and you still worry about others. Rest for now, and we'll go ashore tomorrow. ”
He Qianyun looked at him coldly, but finally didn't struggle to get up anymore: "Who allowed you to call my words?" Who is your confidant? ”
Feng Suixin naturally reached out and patted his face: "Rui Zhi Rui Rui Zhi Rui ~ I just called what~."
"You and I are so familiar, look at you, you have a straight face all day long and are more serious than Chen Yi. If you are not convinced, you can call it back~ Come, call me Shengqiao Song~"
He Qianyun held his breath and glared at him for a while, his face couldn't be darker anymore, and finally he simply turned around and went to sleep, ignoring him.
Feng casually chuckled, turned around and extinguished the candle, and muttered in a low voice in the quilt: "Hey, senior brother and sister have a stubborn temper." ”
