"Gao Zhongde, hurry up." A joking shout sounded, and it was Zhang Zhuchen knocking on the door with a sword.

“…… Well, got it. Gao Si, who was woken up, woke up, got up, dressed, and then went out with a sword, and heard that it was indeed a red-haired girl in green clothes.

Gao Si was stunned for a moment and asked, "Red Whisk, what's going on early in the morning?" ”

"Hmph, I can still sleep, there are many show girls who entered Luoyang by car this morning, so you don't have to worry that Xu Xiaohui is also among them!" Zhang Chuchen sneered.

Although Gao Si is now a thousand cows, it is always a hidden danger to kill the foreign marquis.

He is currently living in the Mansion of the Duke of Chu - Yang Su has not returned and has not yet been changed to the Yue Palace, and everyone is a little worried about Yu Wenhua, who is in charge of the draft, and bringing people to the door, so when he heard the news of the draft, he was ready to find out.

"Come with me." Gao Si was indifferent.

Summoned Shi Danai and Gao Kaidao, put on the waist card of the Duke of Chu, the red whisk woman dressed up as a man, and the chief manager Li Baiyao as a guide to lead the way, and the party went out of the gate of the Guogong Mansion. Then along the track to Suzaku Street, you will see the direction of Changxia Gate, crowded with carriages entering the city, and they are carrying a group of fourteen or fifteen-year-old girls.

"The daughter of the Shen family in Jiangnan, it is said that the fragrance will not disperse for three days after birth, she can sing and dance, be good at doing things, and she will be able to fly after entering the palace."

"Jingzhao Wei, the descendant of the late Taiwei Wei Kuan, I heard that she is also a beauty......"

"Langya Wang, a noble daughter of Shandong, a family of poetry and books, I didn't expect to enter the palace to serve the king this time, it's not easy!"

，，，，，，，。

After that, there were three or five young girls sharing a carriage with ordinary family women.

Li Baiyao is worthy of the name of erudition, and he can identify the origin of every girl who enters the palace.

The Son of Heaven has no selfish affairs.

Thirty years of the emperor's prosperity is like cooking oil on fire, and now that the new emperor is on the throne, there are undercurrents surging from time to time, and some families who want to take advantage of the situation have taken the opportunity of the draft to select the most beautiful women to be sent to the palace, hoping to get a piece of the pie in the future changes. Really carefully investigated, many families and families have begun to bet openly or secretly!

Gao Si couldn't see Xu Xiaohui's figure, and he was both happy and disappointed in his heart.

"Brother of Virtue!" Li Baiyao suddenly called him.

"Brother Li!" Gao Si is very polite, although Li Baiyao is a housekeeper, he is outstanding in talent and integrity, so he can't be polite.

"Brother Xian, I saw you in a trance just now, I guess I was worried about the revenge of the Yuwen family because of the matter of the foreign marquis, come with me to ......, and the foolish brother will definitely be able to help you introduce two close friends."

"It's okay, it's time to bother my brother. My family affairs have been settled, if someone does not open their eyes to find trouble, a certain sword is not a disadvantage! Gao Si thought for a while, and then said: "It's all up to my brother's arrangement, where are we going?" ”

"Nanshi, of course." Li Baiyao smiled and said, "Brother will take you to see and see." Then he summoned a carriage and rushed to the south of the city.

In this era, large cities had special markets for merchants from all walks of life to trade, and they were often prosperous areas in the city, with places to eat, drink and play, making it a good place to meet friends.

The wheels of the carriage rolled along the streets, becoming more and more bustling.

Gao Kaidao and Shi Danai followed on both sides of the carriage, dazzled, Gao Kaidao said unusually: "I'm going to have a good drink later, old Shi, dare to compare the highs and lows." ”

"I'm afraid you won't succeed, we are inseparable in martial arts, and I haven't lost when it comes to drinking." Shi Danai smiled.

Gao Si and Li Baiyao were chattering, and the red-haired girl closed her eyes and recuperated.

At this time, the eighth street of Nanshi, there are many restaurants and noble houses here, Wu girls in the south of the Yangtze River, and orchids in the Western Regions are everything, which makes the young talents linger the most. A tall and elegant pavilion, the courtyard is splendid, looking at the road, the wooden attic conceals the sound of silk and bamboo singing and dancing.

Sima Yuanqing and Yuwen Chengji, as well as a few children of the official eunuchs, only arrived at the door, and they heard two parrots in the court shouting: "Gongzi is here, Gongzi is here......"

The line laughed when they heard it, and Yuwen Chengji said: "This little thing is still a little fun." ”

Sima Yuanqing smiled and said, "So that my brother can hug left and right!" ”

At the right time, the bamboo curtain in front of the building rolled, three Tsing Yi little warblers and warblers Yanyan greeted out, the girl at the head of the long bright eyes and bright teeth, petite and cute, only thirteen or fourteen years old, like a pear blossom blooming in many places, saw the person hurriedly saluted and said: "I heard that a few sons came to visit, Meiqing everyone specially ordered the little maid magpie welcome, please come in!" ”

It was led into by these three little girls, there was a hole in the courtyard, only to see the rockery sparse bushes, strange flowers and plants, even if it was a person who had been here many times, they couldn't help but have a heart of curiosity.

The ground is paved with jade, but the fine dust is not, and the figure can be seen almost when you go up the stone steps. The magpie girl led a few people to the small building, and the constant laughter on the way was quite elegant.

Yuwen Chengji glanced at this girl and said, "Just looking at this girl, you can know the demeanor of Meiqing." ”

"That's nature. Hey, there are four talented women in Wenxiang Garden, either dancing or singing, or piano and poetry, all of which have been famous for a long time. Only this Meiqing family came to participate in the cultural meeting three months ago. Brother Yuwen, have you heard that Meiqing dances, and Luoyang is half empty. An official eunuch said.

Yuwen Chengji was really attracted, raised his hand and touched his chin and said, "Then you have to enjoy it today." ”

By the time they arrived, there were already a number of talented people in the hall.

Before Mei Qing appeared, there was a burst of pipa sound, this pipa sound was like a stream flowing gracefully, without too much rendering, but the notes swelled in the calm, and the sound suddenly changed from the Jiangnan wind to the iron cavalry rushing formation, pulling people's heartstrings, and the song was the most intense and slashed, and it stopped abruptly, as if it had never appeared.

Everyone in the hall was intoxicated and silent for a long time.

"Sure enough, it's a good pipa, and it's worth it. Yuwen Sungji clapped his hands and broke the atmosphere.

The light gauze curtain suddenly lifted from the inside, and another aura appeared, and sixteen girls began to dance, the light yarn moved, the eyes waved, and the spring color was beautiful. In the dancing, the ivory Buddha crown flies into the sky, the Yingluo is like a tide,,, and the contradiction between enchanting and holiness is natural.

The group in the hall forgot to even applaud.

Sima Yuanqing and the others came to the lobby and sat down, and there were maids serving tea, watching the dance and listening to the singing, the beauties were meandering, but Yuwen Gongzi was in a trance at the moment.

Yuwen Chengji is twenty years old and is the youngest son of Yu Wenhua, but he was born in the family.

Eating, drinking, and playing since childhood, but talented and intelligent. Grandfather Yuwen said, he praised "through power and strategy, vigilant and action, is a great talent." This is the only place where I inherit my family's business. ”

The Yuwen family relied on serving to make a fortune today, and he was usually stubborn and harmless to the overall situation.

But today he put away his arrogance, and it is rare to be cautious and polite, because just yesterday a great event happened.

Yuwen Chengji's elder brother Yuwen Chengdu is a general of Tianbao, and he was newly awarded the generalissimo of the former army of counterinsurgency, commanding an army of 100,000 people.

Yesterday, in the evening, he was free to accompany the clan daughter Yuan Ying'e to the White Horse Temple to offer incense.

Yuan Ying'e's grandmother is Yang Lihua, who was originally the eldest daughter of Emperor Yang Kai, the empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty Tianyuan, and the Northern Zhou Dynasty was taken by the Yang family.

Yuan Ying'e has the royal blood of the two dynasties, is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and is good at martial arts and long swords, which is very rare. Yesterday, I went to the White Horse Temple to burn incense to pray for the blessings of the dead, which was originally just a normal thing.

Unexpectedly, when the incense was served, a big monk came to him, and he followed closely after only one glance at Yuan Ying'e. Yuwen Chengji thought that he had met the flower monk, and he was furious and was about to summon the guard, but the monk said the words of the amazing scholar: "The poor monk has cultivated the eye of heaven since he was a child, and he dare not say that he understands the future, but he still has five or six points." Looking at people and seeing the future, but never seeing a very photogenic person, the Buddha blessed, today let the old man see the extremely noble person. ”

Yuwen Chengji's heart moved, and after sending Yuan Ying'e away, he sent someone to secretly entertain the monk. When he arrived at the secret room, the monk didn't wait for him to ask, and said: "If you look at the appearance of the prince, it is just the appearance of the prince of the hundred days, but if you look at this woman, she has the character of a mother. And having a child has the destiny of the Son of Heaven, which can help her husband have great luck. If you have to marry her, your son will be able to call her king and emperor in the future. ”

Yuwen Chengji listened with enthusiasm, but he was very scared, and was thinking about killing his mouth, but the monk got up and said goodbye: "Amitabha, I don't go to hell, who will go to hell." In order to seek peace in the world, the poor monk leaked the heavenly opportunity in vain, and folded his life for 20 years, and he should die tonight. The tired son returned my relics to the White Horse Temple under the stele forest tower. ”

Sure enough, the old monk passed away that night, leaving a moment of relics.

On the second day, Yuwen Chengji returned the monk's relics alone.

Later, when he went to the street, he was almost in a dream, and he met Sima Yuanqing's usual fox friends and dog friends, and was pulled here to participate in the cultural meeting together, and he can't come back to his senses until now.

The order of the crown prince, calling the king and the emperor, this sentence that he had never thought of, suddenly awakened the sleeping ambition in his body and made his heart roll. "Brother Chengji, what do you want?" At this moment, Sima Yuanqing patted him on the shoulder to make him sober up.

"Hey, it's okay, just thinking of this Meiqing everyone, with such a demeanor, no one will take the lead, right?" Yuwen Chengji smiled and returned to his appearance as a gentleman.

"It's a trivial matter, if you can become famous, your brother just has to be happy." Sima Yuanqing said with a smile and said: "I Guanyu Wen Brother Yintang's red light condensation, and it will definitely develop in the future, don't forget the little brother, hahaha!" ”

Yuwen Chengji subconsciously asked in surprise: "You can also look at the face?" ”

"That's nature. Although my Sima family is in decline. But there are still some secret legends, just too profound. Look, Mei Qing, everyone is here. "Sima Yuanqing is actually a nonsense, although he is also surnamed Sima, but he has nothing to do with the Sima family, and physiognomy has not yet been introduced. It's just that he is a sleek person and has to flatter the other party.

Mei Qing everyone came in white clothes like snow, and the two maids gently supported the corners of their skirts in the back, this woman was cold and glamorous, her eyes were affectionate, dignified and charming, and she was most fascinated by the young man.

Seeing her coming, Sima Yuanqing's eyes were staring at each other, and Yuwen Chengji also cheered up and talked to her, but in his heart, he was thinking more about Yuan Ying'e.

Yuan Ying'e's identity is sensitive, otherwise she would not be sixteen years old and still unmarried, and the Yuwen family is also considered a noble, if it is proposed at this time, I am afraid that it will affect the trust of the Son of Heaven in Yuwen.

Mei Qing and everyone saw that the other party's mind was not in her, and they were suspicious, and their eyes stared at Yuwen Chengji twice, but there were many guests, but they didn't stay too long, and they smiled at the moment, and they were about to go to another seat.

"Hey, Brother Yuwen, why are you a vegetarian today? Isn't it going to work? Sima Yuanqing and other officials and eunuchs coaxed.

Yuwen Chengji couldn't stand this agitation, Huo Di picked up the cup, hugged the beauty, laughed and said: "Everyone slow down, drink a cup of beauty incense with me." ”

After that, he handed the wine to the lips of the beauty, and the domineering could not be refused.

The sons present couldn't help but applaud happily, and after a while, one of them even coaxed and said: "I heard that Brother Yuwen has experienced a lot of romantic battles, and there are many patterns. ”

"It's a pity I don't have a chance." Another person said: "I don't know how everyone tastes like Meiqing?" ”

The crowd couldn't help but laugh.
