Shi Hongzhao said: "Madam, I think we will go back to the village to clean up, and immediately leave for Taiyuan to reunite with the adults." ”

Li Sanniang said: "However, my land has not been watered yet, and I am afraid that I will be blamed by my brother when I go back!" ”

Gao Tianlei, one of the four guards, was an anxious man, and roared: "Madam, what are you afraid of, now that Lord Liu is a Taishi, you are the Taishi's wife, what are you afraid of him?" ”

Liu Chengyou also said: "Mother, go, I see who dares to do anything to you?" ”

Everyone packed up the buckets and so on, and let Li Sanniang lead the way in front. Sanniang couldn't resist everyone, so she had to rely on it, and led everyone to Mingli Village.

When she came to Li's house, Sanniang's sister-in-law saw Sanniang coming back with a group of men, and scolded: "Sanniang, you broom star, what time is it now?" You're back, you're going to be lazy, aren't you? A widow still comes back with so many men, are you ashamed? As he spoke, he picked up a broom and called Sanniang.

Shi Hongzhao stepped forward to block the broom and shouted: "Presumptuous! The envoy of Hedong Jiedu and Mrs. Taishi are here, and they are unreasonable! With that, he pushed Sanniang's sister-in-law to the ground.

Sanniang hurriedly stepped forward to help her sister-in-law up and said sorry repeatedly.

When Gao Tianlei saw his wife's appearance, he knew that he must have suffered a lot from his brother and sister-in-law, so he stepped forward and pulled out his knife and threatened: "If anyone dares to embarrass Mrs. again, hum!" Don't blame my knife for not recognizing people! ”

At this time, Li Sanniang's eldest brother Li Da heard the movement outside the house, went out to see, and saw that these people were gorgeously dressed, all of them looked like officials, and heard what Shi Hongzhao said, especially when he saw Sanniang holding a young man with white skin and tender meat, the young man was indeed a little similar to Liu Zhiyuan back then, and he already understood a little in his heart, and hurriedly stepped forward to beckon everyone to come into the house and sit.

Sanniang's sister-in-law also knew each other, and hurriedly apologized: "Aren't I joking with Sanniang?" Isn't it, sister-in-law? ”

Li Sanniang was kind-hearted and didn't want to embarrass her sister-in-law, so she said, "Yes, yes, just kidding!" ”

Sanniang's sister-in-law poured tea and water while inquiring about Liu Zhiyuan's situation sentence by sentence. When she learned that Liu Zhiyuan was now the biggest official in Shanxi, she was even more embarrassed by Li Sanniang.

Sanniang's younger brother Li Ye heard that Sanniang's son was coming, and he also ran to see it excitedly. When he knew that Liu Zhiyuan had become a big official, his heart blossomed with joy. He pondered: "Fortunately, I am good to my sister on weekdays, and now that my brother-in-law has become a big official and is seeking a position for himself, it is naturally not a problem, if he can be a county master or something, then he will be angry!" The more he thought about it, the more he felt good in his heart.

The news spread ten, ten, hundreds, and soon spread throughout the village. Men, women and children from the village came to congratulate Sanniang. Li Ye is also very "generous" to reward his parents and fellow villagers one by one, as if he is Sanniang's mother's family, and it seems that he is already the county master.

Originally, Sanniang was ready to leave for Taiyuan the next day, but the eldest brother and sister-in-law repeatedly kept it, although the eldest brother has always been bad to himself, but after all, he is his own brother, and Sanniang agreed to stay for another day.

Li Ye took Liu Chengyou to the mountains to catch sparrows and hunt hares, but he was in love with Liu Chengyou, and his uncle and nephew had a lot of fun.

Li Ye and Liu Chengyou rushed back to the village with a few wild meats, and on the way, Li Ye took the opportunity to say: "Chengyou, tomorrow you tell your mother, let your uncle go to Taiyuan with you!" ”

Liu Chengyou agreed.

The next day, Li Sanniang said goodbye to her brother and sister-in-law, and Shi Hongzhao and others prepared to get up. Liu Chengyou said: "Mother, let my uncle go to Taiyuan with us." ”

Li Sanniang felt that this was not in accordance with the rules and did not agree. But Liu Chengyou played a trick and fought for a long time. Sanniang was helpless and looked at Shi Hongzhao with an inquiring gaze.

Shi Hongzhao said: "Madam, this is your family matter, you can decide for yourself!" ”

Liu Chengyou fought the side again, after all, Sanniang hadn't seen Chengyou for more than ten years, so her heart softened and agreed to let Li Ye go to Taiyuan together.

On the way to Taiyuan, Yu Qing took Zhao Kuangyan's portrait and inquired about Zhao Kuangyan's whereabouts all the way, and when he came to Jinyang, he heard from a member of the Salt Gang that they saw a courtesan who looked exactly like the person in the portrait in Yichun Courtyard in Jiangling, known as Zhao Feiyan, I don't know if it was the person Yu Qing was looking for.

When Yu Qing heard this, her heart was surging, thinking that she must be Zhao Kuangyan, and she couldn't wait to fly to Jiangling immediately. Jinyang is not far from Taiyuan, and this is already Liu Zhiyuan's absolute sphere of influence, so nothing will go wrong in the future. So he said goodbye to Shi Hongzhao, Li Sanniang and others, and went to Jiangling alone.

Chapter Twenty-Five: Encountering Old Acquaintances Again

Yu Qing came to Gangneung. The land of Jingchu is wonderful, the climate is pleasant, but the products are very barren. Although, Gangneung is located on the north-south transportation artery, and the envoys and merchants from the south to the north gather here, and there are many large and small shops, and there is a prosperous scene everywhere.

Like many metropolises, Gangneung's fireworks land is also famous, the most famous of which is Yichun Temple, people on the road know that although this is a prostitute, but the major shareholder behind it is Gangneung Taishou Gaoxian, with such a strong backstage, is it reasonable to say that the business is not booming?

And the most famous of this Yichun Courtyard is the thousand-faced demon Zhao Feiyan. Why is it called the Enchantress in front? Legend has it that her true face is rare to see, and there are few people who have seen her, although many people boast that they have seen her true face, but some of these people say that she is like Xi Shi, some say that she is like Diao Chan, some say that she is like Zhaojun, and some say that she is like Yang Guifei of Emperor Tang Ming, cough! It's really varied, and because of this, it seems even more mysterious to say that she is her. Zhao Feiyan is her self-proclaimed, and legend has it that her singing and dancing are a must, the dancing posture is like a frightening and light as Feiyan, so the title of Zhao Feiyan is not false.

Yu Qing came to Jiangling Mansion and went straight to Yichun Courtyard. I saw that this Yichun Courtyard was full of traffic, and it was not hot.

Yu Qing walked straight to the Yichun Courtyard, and saw that it was full of friends, the lights were bright, and the girls were graceful and graceful, twisting their plump buttocks to greet the guests.

When the old bustard saw Yu Qing coming in, he stepped forward step by step and said, "Yo! Childe, please inside! Our girl here is the best in Gangneung, Gongzi Dao Ya sitting, Mom, I'll call the girl for you. ”

Yu Qingyi waved his hand and said, "Listen, I don't want any girls, just Zhao Feiyan." ”

The old bustard said, "Yo, son, you really have a good eye. However, you will have to queue up for this, and I dare not guarantee that it will not be your turn, and even if it is your turn, I am afraid that you will not be able to see her. Why don't you call another girl to accompany you for two glasses of flower wine? ”

"Why is that?" Yu Qing asked puzzled.

"Ah, look, these are all in line to see Miss Feiyan."

Yu Qing took a look, and sure enough, there were dozens of people queuing. If so, when will this be scheduled? He took out a small ingot of gold and said, "I'm still bothering my mother to be more thoughtful!" ”

The old bustard said with a smile: "Childe is generous, okay, I'll arrange it for you, you have a cup of tea first, but I don't dare to guarantee that you can't see me." ”

"Why is that?" Yu Qing asked.

The old bustard leaned into his ear and said, "This Feiyan girl is the cash cow of our Yichun Courtyard, if she doesn't want to see someone, we can't do anything, I don't dare to offend her." If she walks away and the boss blames her, I can't afford it. ”

Yu Qing said while drinking tea: "Please also ask my mother for some advice." ”

For the sake of money, the old bustard said the truth as it was. It turned out that this Feiyan girl had made a rule that anyone who wanted to see her had to answer her three questions, and if the answers were right, she would meet her.

Under the arrangement of the old bustard, Yu Qing really came to his turn soon. He came to the Ning Xiang Pavilion where Zhao Feiyan was, at this time he entered the attic of two rooms, the house was elegantly furnished, antique, a few orchids and a peach blossom contrasted with each other, there was a four-open screen in the room, the screen was half bright and half dark, and a graceful figure was faintly visible.

Yu Qing held his breath, his heartbeat accelerated, is this his sister Kuang Yan? The twilight of the past, bits and pieces of twilight, bits and pieces appear in front of me, the mood at this time, Yu Qing himself can't describe, is it expectation? Is it apprehensive? Is it excitement or guilt?

Finally, a person came out from behind the screen, Yu Qing's heart was about to rise to his throat, and indeed a beauty with extraordinary bearing came out, but Yu Qing was disappointed, this was not Zhao Kuangyan at all. But out of politeness, he waited for the girl to finish.

When this girl saw Yu Qing's disappointed expression, she was first shocked, many people had their eyes falling out when they saw her here, but she didn't expect this son to have such an expression, she was inevitably a little annoyed, and she was about to speak. Suddenly heard Yu Qing say: "The girl is Zhao Feiyan?" ”

The girl snorted and said, "I'm Xin'er, and Zhao Feiyan is my young lady!" You're so unreasonable, aren't I beautiful? Don't even look at me! Hmph, pretend to be a decent gentleman, since you can't look at it, you don't have to answer the three questions, please go back! ”

At this time, there was a soft coughing sound from behind the screen, and Xin'er said, "Yes, Miss!" That's what I asked. ”

Yu Qing knew that this was not Zhao Feiyan, but just her maid, and the flame of hope that had been extinguished in her heart was ignited again.

Xin'er said, "Childe, please take a seat." ”

Yu Qingdao: "Sister Xin'er, please!" ”

"First question: Why is Childe here?"

Yu Qing said: "Come and find an old man." ”

"Would you like to ask Childe to recite one of the most memorable verses?" Xin'er then asked a second question.

Yu Qing sighed and said, "Those who abandon me will not stay yesterday; Those who disturb my heart will have many troubles today. ”

Xin'er listened to his poem and said: "The long wind sends autumn geese thousands of miles away, and you can be a tall building for this." Penglai's article is built on the bones, and Xiao Xie is clear in the middle. All of them want to fly with great joy and want to go to the blue sky and blue moon. Draw the knife and cut off the water, the water is more flowing, and the glass is more sorrowful. Life is not satisfactory in the world, and the Ming Dynasty distributed light boats. This is the famous article of Li Taibai, the sword immortal of Shu Dao. I also like his poems very much, but it's a pity that I was born at the wrong time, if I can see the style of the sword fairy with my own eyes, I will have no regrets in this life. ”

Yes, two more coughs were heard from behind the screen. Xin'er hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, I'm far away." ”

Yu Qing said: "It's okay, Miss Xin'er, please continue to the third question." ”

Xin'er asked again, "You haven't seen this old man of yours for many years?" ”

"Half a year."

Xin'er said with great disappointment: "After asking the three questions, please go back, my young lady will not see you." ”

At this time, a voice came from behind the screen: "Wait! The hazy figure slowly stood up and walked slowly outside.

Yu Qing couldn't wait to ask, "Kuang Yan, is it you?" ”

I saw that the woman who came out from behind the screen had a light gait, like a fairy flying out of the sky, and saw her eyes like water, ice muscles like snow, eyebrows slightly frowned, and a sad face, such a stunning beauty, Yu Qing was simply shocked. Although the beauty is current, Yu Qing was disappointed again, because although she is indeed somewhat similar to Zhao Kuangyan, she is not Zhao Kuangyan at all.

Zhao Feiyan turned sideways and asked: "Presumably, Gongzi is also an amorous person, but he has a deep affection for this old man of yours, and he is by no means a general person who asks flowers and willows, the little woman is presumptuous, can you invite Gongzi to have a drink?" ”

Yu Qing said: "These three questions of the girl seem simple, but I am afraid that there is a big article? The girl's face was sad, and she didn't know what was on her mind, and if she could trust it, she might as well come and hear it, and maybe I could help. ”

Zhao Feiyan got up and slowly came to the window, opened the window, a cool breeze blew in, her hair and clothes fluttered in the wind, the lights of Jiangling Mansion outside the window were brilliant, and the traffic was busy, but all this seemed to have nothing to do with her, her eyes were beautiful, but her eyes were dull, she looked out of the window blankly......
