Zhong Hao and his sister-in-law Fu Ruolan agreed on the date and some details of the marriage in the rich mansion, and talked with his brother-in-law Feng Jing about wine, pointed out the country, talked about the past and the present, and then said goodbye and left. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Declined Feng Jing's intention to arrange carriages and horses, it was not too far from the rich mansion in Yongfeng Fang to the Yang Mansion on Tianbo Street, and Zhong Hao planned to wander back to Tianbo Street by himself.

After walking a short distance out of Fufu, I arrived at the Bianhe River.

When the spring flowers are blooming, the scenery on the Bianhe River is also beautiful.

The turquoise river, the verdant weeping willows, the simple and elegant stone bridges, and the cruise ships passing through make this mother river of Bianjing even more fascinating.

If you want to go to Tianbo Street in the north from Yongfengfang, you naturally have to cross the stone bridge over the Bianhe River to reach the opposite side of the Bianhe River.

Zhong Hao walked a little east along the Bianhe River, looking for a stone bridge while enjoying the scenery of the Bianhe River.

The trees along the Bianhe River are verdant, and the sharp kingfisher occasionally dots the water, leaving a halo in circles; From time to time, flocks of white geese floated by, cutting through the reflection of the trees on the water; The breeze caresses and the sparkling waves shine brightly in the sun. From time to time, there are gorgeous pleasure boats rowing on the river, and the sound of silk and bamboo comes out from the boat from time to time, obviously there are literati and scholars who are cruising the river with beauty.

This is a good time to visit the Bianhe River, although the Bianhe River, which is the Eight Views of Bianliang, can only be experienced in autumn. But the Bianhe River in autumn is just a big swell, only the sound of the waves can be appreciated, and the delicacy at that time is far less beautiful than in spring.

Zhong Hao walked east along the Bianhe River for about a mile before he found an elegant stone arch bridge. The Bianhe River is an important waterway in Tokyo, and the bridges over the Bianhe River are built in the shape of arched bridges so as not to obstruct the passage of ships on the Bianhe River.

It is said that these stone arch rainbow bridges in Bianjing were learned from the "Wannian Bridge" in Qingzhou, which was built under the auspices of Xia Zhu. In the past, although the Great Song Dynasty could also build stone arch bridges, it was not possible to build such a rainbow-shaped long-span stone arch bridge that allowed ships to pass.

The arch bridge on the five rivers of Bianjing used to be wooden arches, since Xia Zhu presided over the construction of Qingzhou's "Wannian Bridge" stone arch rainbow bridge success, its experience passed over, the arch bridge on the five rivers in Bianjing City was mostly replaced with this shape like a flying rainbow, both atmospheric and heavy, and beautiful and practical stone arch rainbow bridge.

Zhong Hao saw that there was a stone bridge here, so he planned to cross the bridge.

When I walked to the side of the bridge, I saw that there were two scholars wearing Confucian shirts and scarves on the edge of the Bianhe River, and they were standing under a weeping willow to enjoy the scenery of the Bianhe River.

When Zhong Hao walked past them, he suddenly smelled a high-quality aroma.

Zhong Hao, who wanted to go to the bridge, smelled this aroma and couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and couldn't help but look at the two scholars.

The two scholars were extremely slender and slender, and the very luxurious Confucian shirts worn on their bodies could not hide their slender figures. Zhong Hao couldn't help but move in his heart, and when he looked carefully from behind, the two scholars had small holes with earrings on their earlobes, and he couldn't help but be stunned at the moment.

It turned out to be two females dressed as men.

Of course, Zhong Hao is not surprised by this matter.

Although the atmosphere in this era is much more open than that of the Ming and Qing dynasties in the later generations, it is not a big deal for women to go on the street, but for women from large families, it is sometimes a little inconvenient to travel and play, after all, large families should pay more attention to the door style and image. Therefore, many of the ladies and ladies of the Great Song Dynasty family traveled in men's clothing, so as not to be unnecessarily.

However, the general male dress as a woman is obviously not as unrecognizable as the one in the film and television drama, in fact, most women dressed as men can be recognized at a glance. Most men dress up as women just for the convenience of travel, and it is obviously difficult to completely hide from the world, and it is generally not necessary. As for those that are more difficult to recognize, they generally look ...... Especially like a man's.

Zhong Hao stood beside the two scholars dressed as men for a moment, and heard a voice groaning crisply: "The faint flying bridge is separated by smoke, and the fishing boat is asked on the west side of Shiji." The peach blossoms flow with the water all day long, and the hole is on the side of the clear stream. ”

As soon as the scholar dressed as a man with a crisp voice finished chanting, another one next to him teased: "This April of Bianhe is quite in line with the artistic conception of 'peach blossoms flowing all day long' in Xiaohe's song "Peach Blossom Creek", but the other artistic conceptions are afraid that they have nothing to do with it!" ”

The scholar who was dressed as a man just now said coquettishly: "Gong...... Son, people just groan so casually, is there any need to criticize others like this?! Besides, there is one sentence that already fits. Look at how many colorful peach blossoms fall in the Bianhe River, don't they all flow away with the flowing water of the Bianhe River? ”

"Okay, good, Xiaohe, you chant well, chant wonderfully, chant this poem very much in line with the artistic conception in front of you!"

Although these two women dressed as men dressed as male scholars, their voices and demeanors were indeed still women's, and they obviously did not deliberately pretend to be men. When Zhong Hao saw them behind them, he was naturally more sure that they were all women.

Of course, on this beautiful day of spring in Tokyo, there are people who come out to play in disguise as women and men, Zhong Hao will naturally not be surprised, and he will not have anything to do with him.

However, Zhong Hao, who originally wanted to walk towards the stone bridge, seemed to be familiar with the voice of the woman named Xiaohe who was another woman, and seemed to have heard it there. And the name Xiaohe also seems to be very familiar, I seem to have heard it, but I can't remember it for a while.

The woman from a big family that Zhong Hao met when he came to Tokyo was probably Shen Kuo's daughter-in-law Pan Qianqian, but she returned to her hometown with Shen Kuo today, so it was obviously impossible to be the woman in front of her. And apart from Pan Qianqian, Zhong Hao really doesn't know any girls from big families.

Of course, he knew a few girls in the Fengyue Realm, such as Liu Xueqing, Lin Yuchen and Hua Xiaodie, but obviously the one named Xiaohe in front of him was not on the same page as them.

Zhong Hao thought about it for a while, he really couldn't remember hearing this voice there, he had just come to Tokyo, he shouldn't have been a familiar girl, but why did he hear this voice so familiar?

If it were a weekday, probably Zhong Hao wouldn't delve into this kind of thing, so what if he was familiar? I am all about to get married, but I can't provoke bees and butterflies, for some women, I naturally have to be able to hide, and I will probably leave by this time.

But Zhong Hao drank some wine with his brother-in-law today, and his mind couldn't help but be a little confused. Of course, it's not that I want to get into trouble, but I'm more interested in things that I might not be interested in on weekdays.

However, although Zhong Hao drank a little wine, his mind was still sober, so naturally he would not come forward to talk to this girl for no reason, in case he just listened to him, and it was someone he didn't know, it would be embarrassing!

Zhong Hao thought about it and thought it was better to go, maybe he was in a trance, where did he know any girl in Tokyo? Besides, even if you know, what can you do?

Just when Zhong Hao was about to take a step, the two scholars dressed as men suddenly turned their heads, both with angry expressions on their faces, and looked at Zhong Hao with apricot eyes. Zhong Hao has been standing behind others for a while, and people must have felt it, and now I am afraid that he will be recognized as a disciple!

However, when these two scholars dressed as men turned around, Zhong Hao was sure that they were indeed these two women. And Zhong Hao did feel that the girl on the left who was chanting poetry at the beginning and was called Xiaohe by another scholar dressed as a man had a very familiar feeling, but he couldn't remember seeing her there for a while.

The woman who was called Xiaohe originally looked at Zhong Hao with an angry face and round apricot eyes, and she was about to have a seizure, but when she saw Zhong Hao's face clearly, her round apricot eyes couldn't help but squint quickly, and her face showed an expression of surprise and joy, an expression of disbelief.

"Owner of the village, is it really you?"

The title of the owner of the village, since he left Jingqiang Village, no one has called Zhong Hao so for a long time. When Zhong Hao heard this girl call herself the owner of the village, he naturally thought that this girl used to be a person from Jingqiang Village, but he couldn't remember who she was for a while! But she looked familiar, maybe she couldn't tell who it was when she was wearing men's clothes, and Zhong Hao stared at her carefully! Zhong Hao was embarrassed to look at it just now, for fear that he would not know him again and cause some embarrassment.

The girl saw that Zhong Hao hadn't come out yet, so she couldn't help but remind: "Village master, I'm Xiaohe, do you still know me?" My father is Zheng Duyu! ”

"Oh, it's Xiaohe. Oops, I haven't seen you become so beautiful in more than a year, and you're wearing men's clothes, and I didn't even recognize you! ”

After the girl said that his father was Zheng Duyu, Zhong Hao remembered! This girl's name is Zheng Xiaohe, and she is Zheng Huaitao's daughter. Last summer, when his Taishan father-in-law Fu Bi offered potatoes and sweet potatoes for himself, the imperial court sent Qin sent a forester Wailang to Jingqiang Village to inspect to see if the sweet potatoes and potatoes were really as productive as his Taishan father-in-law Fu Bi said.

When the forester Wailang was leaving, he asked Jingqiang Zhai to send someone who could make potatoes and sweet potatoes to eat with him back to Beijing, so that when the official family liked to eat these potatoes and sweet potatoes, it would be convenient for him to make them. Of course, there is only one man in the official harem, either a eunuch or a woman, so the forester Wailang asked Zhong Hao to choose a girl to go back with him as much as possible, so that if the official family is interested in eating potatoes and sweet potatoes, he can enter the palace to cook for him. This Zheng Xiaohe came to Tokyo with the forester Wailang at that time.

This Zheng Xiaohe is probably not willing to marry a soldier in the bitter cold land of Hexi for a lifetime, and he can't be safe and stable, and he still has to worry about the capture army of the Xixia people coming to plunder at any time. At that time, Zhong Haozheng had no suitable candidate, and it was Zheng Xiaohe who recommended himself.

Zheng Xiaohe has a good relationship with Ke Yao on weekdays, and she has also learned to cook various dishes and meals of potatoes and sweet potatoes with Ke Yao, and she has some eyesight, which will not be bad, so Zhong Hao is still very approving of her going to Tokyo. Zhong Hao asked Zheng Xiaohe if she was indeed going to Tokyo voluntarily with the forester wailang, and asked Zheng Huaitao again, and he also agreed that his daughter would go to Tokyo with the forester wailang, so he agreed to Zheng Xiaohe to come to Tokyo.

In fact, for Zheng Xiaohe, she felt that it was an opportunity to change her fate, so she tried her best to fight for it. Not only her, but a girl in Jingqiang Village took the initiative to sleep for the forester Wailang that day. When the forester wailang left, he wanted to take them away, and they couldn't help but be happy. Many people living in border places like Hexi are actually eager to change their lives.

After Zheng Xiaohe entered Beijing, it is said that he was indeed recruited into the palace by the official family to make this all-potato banquet, and was later left in the palace. It can be said that Zhong Hao relied on potatoes and sweet potatoes to get a reward, complete the goal of the scarlet robe, and make his name in the emperor's heart, and there is also a part of Zheng Xiaohe's credit for doing a good job in the whole potato banquet!

Zhong Hao actually met Zheng Xiaohe in Jingqiang Village, but he was not familiar, but he only occasionally saw her with Ke Yao, so he had some impression of her, but it was not very deep. Yes, just now I heard her name and voice very familiar, but I can't remember her.

However, no matter what, Zhong Hao was still very happy to meet an acquaintance in Jingqiang Village in Tokyo.

Zheng Xiaohe couldn't help blushing a little when he heard Zhong Hao praise himself for being beautiful, and laughed crisply: "Village master, you are more and more good at praising people!" ”

"Hehe, Xiaohe, this is not Hexi. Don't call me the owner of the village, let people hear that don't be misunderstood as the strong beam of which cottage I am! "In this prosperous Tokyo~stream, the title of the owner of this village is indeed a bit out of place.

"Hee-hee, then let's call Childe!"

"Well, that's a lot more pleasing to the ear!"

The girl next to Zheng Xiaohe, when she turned around at the beginning, was just as angry as Zheng Xiaohe! However, as Zheng Xiaohe recognized Zhong Hao, her face softened a lot. After all, the scholar in front of him doesn't look like a disciple.

Because Zhong Hao came to his father-in-law's house for the first time, he specially made a fuss. He was wearing a royal blue satin shirt, a jade belt rewarded by the official family at the time of Xiao Chuanyu's waist, a Nafu jade pendant pinned to it, and a free scarf tied on his head, so he still looked quite personable today.

When the girl heard that Zheng Xiaohe was calling Zhong Hao the owner of the village, her eyes couldn't help but light up. Then I heard Zhong Hao say not to let Zheng Xiaohe call him the owner of the village, for fear of being misunderstood as a copycat strong beam, and couldn't help but smile.

Zheng Xiaohe remembered his companion at this time, and couldn't help but hurriedly introduce Zhong Hao: "Son, this is my father-in-law...... Child! ”

As soon as Zheng Xiaohe finished introducing it, he couldn't help but laugh, which one is which son?

When Zhong Hao and the girl heard Zheng Xiaohe's words, they couldn't help but laugh.

Zheng Xiaohe pouted at the moment and said, "Okay, son, I'll introduce you truthfully, this is my eldest lady!" ”

Immediately, Zheng Xiaohe introduced the girl again: "Miss, this is Zhong Gongzi, the owner of our former Jingqiang Village!" ”

Zhong Hao hurriedly saluted and said: "Xiaosheng has seen ......" It seems that Zheng Xiaohe didn't introduce this girl's surname, what?! Zhong Hao didn't know how to say hello for a while.

Seeing this, Zheng Xiaohe hurriedly added: "My young lady's surname is Zhao!" ”

Zhong Hao hurriedly continued: "I've seen Miss Zhao, Xiaosheng is so polite!" ”

The girl was also busy and returned the courtesy very elegantly: "The slave family has seen Zhong Gongzi, this is polite!" ”
