Chapter 27 Concerning the World

Most of the Xuanmen sects have branches, and often have their own territories and residences in many places. Naturally, this is even more true for those with a status like the Shangguan family, and the territory they occupy and the subordinates they stay behind are also incomparable to other sects. And Jiangyin, as a place where all sects and factions often gather, he will definitely have his own courtyard here.

Shangguan Yu took everyone to turn a few streets, and the sections of the road along the way were all smooth and wide streets, and the surrounding shops and shops were all high-end shops of great specifications, and the crowd was not as noisy as outside, and it was a lot cleaner, as if it was a "rich area".

After walking for half a cup of tea, they arrived in front of a small building with a beautiful courtyard. This small lintel is not very grandiose, but it is quiet and elegant, and it is completely another kind of poetic and watery smallness. After several people saw it, they couldn't help but wonder for a moment in their hearts, this place didn't look like a person with the image of Shangguan Yu lived, why was it more like a woman's style?

When Gu Qinghao saw this house, he was immediately stunned. This place is only half a tea distance away from the Gu family, but he, who is so close, has never found such a place under his nose. It is surrounded by all kinds of shops, food, clothing, housing and transportation, and the streets are neither noisy nor lonely, and it is possible to find such a convenient and elegant place in the middle of the city, how did he find it?

Shangguan Yu led a few people into the door, and only stopped when he walked to a colored stone path, turned around and glanced at everyone, and said, "I'll take Jin Yuan in to change clothes, so you can just go shopping first." ”

A few people answered, and he took the Jin Yuan Dynasty deeper away.

Maybe it's because Qin Chuyun is a woman, she is obviously more interested in this place than these men, her eyes are shining and she looks around, and finally she is attracted by the eaves of a bamboo garden next to her.

On that eaves hangs a dark green bamboo plaque with the words "Bright Moon Returns" written in small block letters.

Qin Chuyun said: "This place is called Mingyue Gui?"

Gu Qinghao also came over when he heard this, looked at it for a moment, nodded and said, "This name is appropriate." ”

The two of them were full of curiosity to visit here, but Xiao Hanfeng frowned lightly on the side, the more he looked at the scenery here, the more confused he became, his hand gently patted his forehead, and muttered: "Why do I feel like I've seen it somewhere?" He looked at this place very familiarly, and he was about to blurt it out, but he couldn't remember it at the last moment, it felt terrible!

He was still racking his brains to recall, but Qin Chuyun was happy to see it, and directly pulled the two of them to the other side of the bamboo garden.

"Let's go over there and take a look, it seems to be more beautiful there. ”

They walked along the corridor of the bamboo garden through the hanging branches of the flowers and trees, and crossed the threshold bounded by flowers and plants, opposite a mirror lake. At this time, it is the time when the lotus flower opens, and there is a dark green floating in the far away in the lake, and above the dark green are staggered and undulating red and white lotus petals, reflecting the sparkling water waves, and it is very beautiful to see on the shore.

There is a pavilion in the center of the lake on the top of the water wave, the pavilion is vermilion wall and green tile, the mantle is elegant, and the eaves angle is like flying. There is a tassel silver bell falling on each of the four corners of the cornice, swaying and swaying when the wind passes, and the clear sound spreads far away.

A few people stood on the shore, and even if they were very far away, they could still see the outline of the pavilion, which showed the grandeur of its construction.

Gu Qinghao couldn't help but sigh in admiration, his eyes showed sincere surprise and appreciation, and he said with admiration: "I didn't expect Shangguan Gongzi to be such an interesting person, I really sighed to myself." ”

Qin Chuyun also smiled and teased: "Yes, you like this kind of landscape the most on weekdays, and now you have finally met a realm that can talk to you, and you won't be lonely in the future." ”

Gu Qinghao smiled and didn't speak, although he didn't make a sound, the expression on his face was really very pleased, as if he really had a long-term relationship with him.

A few people were laughing, and they wanted to continue walking, but their feet had just stepped onto the stone bridge, when a sudden sound of a piano sounded on the lake.

When they heard this, they immediately stopped, and looked around curiously.

I only heard the sound of the piano ethereal and clean, soft and long. The softness of the string is like an unintentional plucking of the fingers, which makes people worry about whether it will die out in the next moment, but in people's worries, it has been blowing over the entire mirror lake endlessly, which seems to be thrilling but is actually safe.

There was obviously no wind around, but they faintly heard a soft echo, and the original sound of the piano overlapped with the echo, which suddenly added a bit of a thick and calm taste. The melody is not slow, not restless or heavy, and the proportion is just right.

Gu Qinghao is accompanied by poetry and music on weekdays, and he is naturally proficient in the way of the qin, and he can't help but be surprised when he hears it at this moment. He has always been humble, if there is any skill that can make him indispensable on weekdays, it is probably the piano art, but now even he thinks in his heart that he may not be able to catch up with half of this one. In such a hot weather, it must be a master of the piano, and I don't know what a master it is.

Just when a few people were indulging in the sound of the piano, they suddenly heard someone whispering poetry.

"White horses and silver spears run through the territory

Drunk to see the floating one

Under the sword, get tang

But the juvenile scenery

Why not be crazy

The scheming is as good as it gets

It's also like a plaything in the palm of a chess

Teasing the world

I was not melancholy

Preference for the absurd

It's hard to give up and hurt yourself

Bosom friends are the same as cool

Rong is also the same

It's business as usual

The remnants of the country embraced the country for a while

However, this wind and frost disease bone sores

Give me distractions

It's also unforgettable

Wasted time

Empty thoughts"

The person who recited the poem was a woman, her voice was clear, neither soft nor rigid, and she was calm and affectionate when she recited it, and her sentences were moving.

When the three of them heard the poem, they all fell silent.

In this poem, there is not only the chic of a wanton boy laughing at the ups and downs of the world, the pride of playing with people's hearts, but also the sadness and pity of the hero's end. The contrast between the two feelings before and after is stark, showing the loneliness and helplessness of the impermanence of the world, which makes people feel regretful.

After being silent for a long time, Qin Chuyun suddenly said: "Who is this girl? ”

Gu Qinghao was more curious than her, and at the moment she was also staring at the lake expectantly: "I don't know." This is the place of Shangguan Gongzi, it must be someone from the Shangguan family, right?"

As soon as Qin Chuyun heard that it was someone from the Shangguan family, he immediately turned to Xiao Hanfeng: "Young Master Xiao, you are familiar with Shangguan Gongzi, do you know who this is?"

Who knew that Xiao Hanfeng didn't wait for her to ask, he had already secretly thought about it, he seemed to have the answer in his heart, but he was not sure, so he had been entangled and difficult to break.

Qin Chuyun saw that he didn't reply to him for a long time, but he hid to the side and didn't know what he was thinking, so he was silent for a moment, and then said, "Why don't we go over and have a look?"

Gu Qinghao seemed to feel that something was wrong, and said vaguely: "This ...... After all, it's a place for people, and it would be a bit rude for us to walk around rashly. ”

Qin Chuyun didn't feel anything, and said, "Didn't Shangguan Gongzi already say just now, let's just take a stroll?" If there is anything inconvenient here, he will definitely not let us visit by ourselves." On the contrary, since he left without saying anything, it means that it doesn't matter. ”

Gu Qinghao had intended to visit this girl, but now that he listened to Qin Chuyun's explanation, he felt that it seemed to make sense, weighed it for a moment, and said, "Okay, then let's go and have a look." ”

The two hit it off, immediately untied a bamboo boat by the lake, and stepped on it one after another.

Who knew that the two had just landed, and suddenly a gust of wind rose, and the boat was immediately shaken left and right, almost capsizing!

Gu Qinghao's reaction was quite fast, and he immediately gathered strength under his feet, stepping down at the same time, one left and one right, and the boat barely stabilized and did not overturn.

As soon as the boat stabilized, the two of them looked up and saw that there were two sword-wielding maids standing on the water.

These two maids are all dressed in white, with good looks and cold temperaments, and their handsome faces are full of frost, looking at everyone with a proud look. At this moment, they are standing directly on the water, as steady as the ground, not to mention that no one of them present can do it, I am afraid that even their parents may not be able to do it, but these two people have this kind of cultivation at the age of teenagers, which is really shocking!

The two of them came silently, and they didn't even stir up the waves, and only the gust of wind was the only movement, and the gust of wind was probably deliberately released by them to warn them.

There are even secret guards guarding this place, so it seems that the people here must be extraordinary.

One of the maids glanced at a few people, and suddenly crossed the sword in front of her, and said with a cold eyebrow: "Huxin Pavilion Feier and other places that can be spied on, it is best to leave quickly." ”

Gu Qinghao gave a salute and said apologetically: "When we came here, we suddenly heard a leisurely sound of the piano, and we were convinced, so I wanted to visit, I don't want to offend you, please forgive me." ”

When the words fell, the two maids didn't reply a word, they still looked at them coldly, as if they didn't care about his explanation at all, they just wanted to stare at them and leave.

Gu Qinghao was also stunned when he saw that the other party was reacting like this. In the past, Gu Qingze treated him like that, and he could never hear it, but at this moment, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed and at a loss.

Qin Chuyun saw that Gu Qinghao was given a cold reception, and he was immediately unhappy, his little face darkened, and his tone was quite dissatisfied: "What's the big deal, we just appreciate her piano sound and want to visit and make friends, it's good for you to put on such a big battle, I think we are in the wrong place, but we can't climb high!"

The two maids on the water were originally just staring at them coldly, but after listening to Qin Chuyun's words at this moment, their faces changed suddenly.

The next moment, as if they had a heart, the two of them pulled out their long swords and stretched them forward at the same time, without saying a word, their knees bent slightly, and they were about to rush forward immediately.

If Qin Chuyun and Gu Qinghao were on the shore, they would naturally not be afraid of them, but they are now on the boat. The ship is not as stable as the ground, and the body will shake with a little exertion, and as soon as the body loses balance, no matter what moves are messed up. The two of them were tied, they couldn't attack, and they couldn't retreat, which was really troublesome.

But on the other hand, the two maids, the two of them stepped on the water as if they were walking on the ground, their movements were smooth, and their moves were even more fluid, which had no impact at all. They didn't seem to care at all about which young master and young lady were in front of them, what the consequences would be if they hurt them, and they only had the task of guarding Mirror Lake in their eyes.

The two maids were as fast as ghosts, and before Qin Gu and the others could react, they were already in front of them.

Qin Gu and the others were already struggling to parry, but when they saw their strange skills at this moment, they were even more stunned, and when they were surprised, the sword was already hanging above their heads!

Just as a pair of long swords were about to be cut off, a willow leaf dart slammed into it with a willow branch that had been shot off the way.

"Zheng~"

There was a loud bang, and the surroundings fell silent in an instant.

After a long silence, Qin Gu and the others came back to their senses, slowly looked back, and saw Shangguan Yu and Jin Yuan walking towards this side.

As soon as Shangguan Yu's figure appeared, before he could speak, the two maids immediately looked solemn, put their long swords into the sheath, and bowed their heads and said respectfully: "My subordinates have seen the young master." ”

At this moment, the two maids lost their previous coldness at all, and there was a bit of softness and vivid anger on their faces, which was normal.

Seeing this, the three of them all thought in their hearts: Presumably these two people will only be like this in front of Shangguan Yu, right?

Shangguan Yu glanced at the two of them, hummed softly, and said lightly: "These are my guests, so you don't have to stop them." As he spoke, he looked at the attic in the distance, and then said, "Fei Xu, tell the young lady that there is a guest coming, let her come out to get acquainted." ”

Fei Su raised his head when he heard this, and he smiled rarely, as if he had heard some long-awaited good news, and said excitedly: "Yes, my subordinates will go." ”

After saying that, the two flew back to the attic.

After the two left, Shangguan Yu turned around and explained to them: "Fei Xu and Ji Yu were picked out by me to protect the owner of this house, and they only have tasks in their eyes, and they never know the identity of the person who came. This is her private place again, and she never lets people set foot on weekdays, so that's why they stop you. Coupled with what you just said, they felt that you had offended the master here, so they would do something to you, and it was because I didn't explain it in advance, so I made a mistake and neglected you. ”

Gu Qinghao only understood the situation after listening, and said: "I see, we are also abrupt, we shouldn't trespass on other people's places without being clear." This matter is a misunderstanding, just make it clear. ”

Having said that, he still secretly thought in his heart: Fortunately, he came in time, otherwise if he saw blood, this would not be a simple misunderstanding, it was really dangerous!

Shangguan Yu also smiled slightly and nodded, which was regarded as agreement.

Qin Chuyun said again: "You said that they are protecting the owner of this house, so you are not the master here?"

Shangguan Yu chuckled lightly and said, "When did I say that I was the master here?"

Qin Chuyun was even more confused, and exclaimed, "Didn't you say "go to your place" before? Isn't this the place of Shangguan's house?"

So whose house did they go to?

Qin Chuyun immediately became vigilant, and secretly thought that he should not break into any places that should not be broken into, if he provoked any powerful people, he would be in trouble.

Shangguan Yu saw that she suddenly became nervous, and immediately explained: "Don't worry, this is Shangguan's place, it's just not under my control." ”

He is the young master of the Shangguan family, and if he is not under his control, who else can he manage?

Just when Qin Chuyun was about to ask again, Xiao Hanfeng finally remembered, let out a loud voice, and said, "I said why is this place so familiar! It turned out to be Jing Yao's residence in Yanlan! I didn't expect you to build another room here as it was!"

Shangguan Yu became more and more disgusted with his eyesight: "You only see it now?"

Xiao Hanfeng was unconvinced: "The last time I went to your house was five years ago, and I didn't expect you to really build another one as it was, so I'm not sure." I'm sure I've just heard from you. "Also, I haven't seen two maids for her when you picked them out, no wonder they don't know me, otherwise they wouldn't have stopped me." ”

Shangguan Yu said: "I picked it two years ago, and they won't stop you after today." ”

The two of them chatted lively, and Qin Gu and the two behind them were confused, who was Jing Yao?

At this moment, a clear female voice suddenly came from the water: "Are you back?"

When everyone heard the sound, they turned around and saw a girl in white coming slowly on the water in a leaf-shaped boat. This girl's white gauze is as clean and pure as a hibiscus out of the water, and the cuffs and waist are tied by wrist guards and jade belts respectively, which does not feel wide and lengthy at all, but looks heroic and neat. Looking at her appearance again, it is even more stunning and gentle, with a red sandalwood mouth, a high nose bridge, and a pair of thin eyebrows that seem to be bent but not curved. Her beauty is different from the beauty of ordinary people, but it is an extreme gentle beauty, which makes people feel that this woman is like water at a glance, and no matter how irritable the mood is, it can always be calmed down by her instantly, so that people are willing to enjoy the peace she brings, and this beauty almost has a magical power.

And the most beautiful thing is her eyes. Her eyes were clear and smart, her eyes were as bright as water waves, faintly rippling with seductive brilliance, as if she could speak, always smiling and kind, as if all the heavens and earth that came into her eyes could be purified.

They were amazed at her appearance when the ship had already landed.

Feng Jingyao jumped up in one step, regardless of whether there was anyone else around her, she threw herself into Shangguan Yu's arms, and said happily: "You are finally back!"
