Gu Zhongchen almost laughed out loud in anger, and couldn't help but snort: "If Your Excellency doesn't know the rhythm of music, you might as well say it clearly, why do you need to pretend here?" ”

Xu Zizhen sneered: "Hey! I want to play music and only give it to Miss Liuli to enjoy alone, why don't you pay to listen to the white opera? ”

Gu Zhongchen took a deep breath and forced a smile to himself: "As long as Your Excellency is willing, even if you give some money, what's the matter?" ”

This kid is really endless, Xu Zizhen really has the urge to hit people now, and sneered: "Okay, one hundred taels of silver, I'll give you an eye opener, how about it?" Gu Dacai! ”

The four words of Gu Dacai specially accentuated his tone, which made Gu Zhongchen feel a burst of heat on his face, as if he had been slapped invisibly, and suddenly an impulse in his heart shouted: "Okay, one hundred taels is one hundred taels!" ”

However, Zhang Ling and a few others next to him were quite unconvinced, and shouted: "Who do you think you are?" It costs a hundred taels to play a song? Why don't you grab it? ”

"Since this brother has made a bid, what is this yellow and white thing." Gu Zhongchen suddenly stretched out his hand to stop it, and at the same time took out a silver ticket with a face value of one hundred taels from his arms and slapped it on the table, "Brother Tai, please." ”

Xu Zizhen didn't expect that he was really willing to give this hundred taels of silver, obviously a little surprised, his face was cloudy, and there was a little embarrassment, Gu Zhongchen was happy in his eyes, I told you to pretend!

The-for-tat confrontation between the two suddenly ended with Xu Zizhen's silence, and the eyes of the entire hall were focused on Xu Zizhen, and almost everyone had one idea in their hearts, that is, this kid was just pretending, and he was afraid that he wouldn't know either.

"Alas......" Xu Zizhen suddenly sighed, and said with a lonely expression, "As the saying goes, if you don't die, you won't die, this is really true." ”

Everyone was stunned, and they didn't know whether he was talking about himself or Gu Zhongchen, only to see him look at Liuli and smile: "Liuli girl, borrow Ji Qin and use it." ”

Ji Qin is also known as Huqin, which was later changed to erhu, Xu Zizhen is indeed pretending, but he doesn't know how to play any instrument, at least he knows erhu, and he plays it very well.

Xu Zizhen's father used to be in the Beijing Peking Opera Troupe, and he played the erhu beautifully, known as the treasure of the town troupe, Xu Zizhen was also very skilled under his father's education since he was a child, and later won the first place in the Beijing Youth Folk Music Competition in middle school.

These people in the hall naturally don't know this, but in the Northern Song Dynasty, Ji Qin didn't have any famous repertoire, it can be said to be a very ordinary musical instrument, they were naturally curious, and at the same time faintly looked forward to how Xu Zizhen would make a fool of himself, after all, he had spoken proudly.

Liuli beckoned the musician to hand over a handful of Ji Qin, handed it to Xu Zizhen, and then quietly stepped aside.

Xu Zizhen took a deep breath, sat down, muttered for a moment, put the bow on the string, moved his wrist, and a classic song "Erquan Reflecting the Moon" slowly rose.

The sound of the song is low and deep, and a feeling of sadness and vicissitudes of life inexplicably swells up in everyone's hearts, Xu Zizhen's face is like sinking water, his eyes are slightly closed, his left hand strokes the string and his right hand pulls the bow, at this moment his appearance looks like a dying old man who has experienced the world, and he is commemorating some people and things with the sound of the piano.

Xu Zizhen is indeed not just playing, but from this song remembered his deceased parents, and now he has come to this dynasty many years apart, even if he wants to go to worship, it is no longer available, wisps of thoughts turned into notes under his hands, melodious sadness, flowing into everyone's ears.

At the end of the piece, the tone changes from rising to melody, ending with an incomplete termination of the light performance, full of endless melancholy and longing, and finally becoming more soothing and calm.

At the end of the song, everyone was already sluggish, the scene was silent, Xu Zizhen put down the erhu and sighed quietly.

This sigh is like a perfect rest, and it is like the most hammer that breaks down everyone's psychological defense, Liuli only felt a shock to her delicate body, and two crystal tears unconsciously slipped from the corners of her eyes.

There was a dead silence in the hall, and after a long time, I didn't know who started the road, and suddenly burst into a thunderous cheer, whether Xu Zizhen and Gu Zhongchen's fighting spirit was stealing the limelight or not, it had nothing to do with them, and what they really heard in their ears was Xu Zizhen's moving and tear-jerking song.

In the box on the second floor, Brother Qi was also extremely surprised, he originally thought that Xu Zizhen was playing tricks, but unexpectedly, Xu Zizhen really pulled such a good song, and even Rong Xi on the side was infected with sadness, and his smart eyes were covered with mist.

"This person really surprised me!" The seventh brother let out a sigh of relief, the song just now actually touched him a lot, but he was deep in his mind and not easy to show on his face.

Rong Xi wiped the corners of his eyes without a trace, and said with a smile: "This person opens his mouth and closes his mouth, anyone will think that he is just a gangster, but if anyone really thinks so, then he will really be deceived by him." ”

"Oh?" The seventh brother was very curious, and looked at her with a smile, "In this way, little sister, you have a unique eye." ”

Rong Xi smiled back and didn't say anything more, how could this guy not lie to himself? The peerless sentence at the temple fair, as well as the bottle of mascara, who would think that it came from the hands of this vulgar cloth cloth?

……

Xu Zizhen stretched out two fingers and picked up the silver ticket on the table and looked at it, and suddenly smiled at Liuli: "Liuli girl, can you enjoy a cup of tea?" ”

Liuli finally came back to her senses, took a deep breath to stabilize her mind, and smiled back, and waved her slender jade hand: "Childe, please!" ”

The final candidate for tea with Liuli today still fell on Xu Zizhen, which was not surprising to everyone present, but Gu Zhongchen, the number one talent in Jiangnan, did not look good, and lost a hundred taels of silver for no reason, or lost to Xu Zizhen, a rough man who was full of vernacular.

It's just, is he really a rough man?

The rules of the red sleeve move, who can get the favor of the glaze, who can enter the glazed boudoir to serve tea, although Qian Tongzhi and Duan Chen were left in the hall, they did not feel sorry, Xu Zizhen came with them, and the song tonight shocked everyone, which made the two of them grow a lot of faces.

The glazed room is on the third floor of the red sleeve move, here is the best room in the whole building, there is a curtain made of pearls of the same size hanging outside the door, you can feel a soft light coming to you before you get closer, the curtain is lifted into a spacious small hall, the furniture is made of finely carved red sandalwood, there are many famous calligraphy and paintings on the wall, there is a purple gold incense burner in the corner of the house, it is burning incense of unknown name, it smells very awake.

It doesn't matter what kind of tea to drink in such an environment, Xu Zizhen looked around, and suddenly had the illusion that he had entered the study of a certain great Confucian, and he couldn't connect with a place like Red Sleeves.

Liuli invited Xu Zizhen to sit down, pursed his lips and smiled: "Originally, according to the convention, Liuli was going to play a song to help Yaxing, but Gongzi just made Liuli lose confidence at all, and I hope Gongzi will forgive me." ”

Xu Zizhen doesn't have any intention to listen to music now, firstly, he has something on his mind, and secondly, he is really not interested in the tunes of this year, and when he heard Liuli say this, he hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Liuli girl, don't be polite, I didn't come here to find you for tea." ”

Liuli Qiao's face flushed, and she said in a low voice: "Childe, Liuli has always only been a ...... who only serves her art and does not sell herself" Her eyes were shy, extremely charming, but a hidden cold light flashed in her eyes the moment she lowered her head.

Xu Zizhen was stunned, and then Ha Lu Ha Da laughed and said, "Blame me for not making it clear...... Don't worry, Miss Liuli, although your appearance like a fairy makes my heart itch, but I don't mean that for the time being. ”

Liuli couldn't help but burst out laughing, is this interesting or uninteresting?

At this time, a maid brought tea with a tray, and Liuli took the opportunity to pick up the teacup and said with a smile: "The song played by Childe today has opened Liuli's eyes, I wonder if Childe can cut this song into love?" ”

The smile on Xu Zizhen's face suddenly slowly rose, and he slowly shook his head: "It's not that I don't want to, it's just that ...... This song contains my thoughts about my deceased father and mother, I'm afraid that your red sleeves are not suitable. ”

Looking at his eyes, Liuli was speechless all of a sudden, I don't know what to say, this man's eyes were deep and sad, which made her feel an inexplicable sourness in her heart.

Xu Zizhen suddenly smiled: "I'm sorry, I'm not happy for you, let's talk about something else, otherwise Lang will waste today's opportunity...... By the way, I haven't asked clearly, how much do we have to pay for a tea with Miss Liuli like me? ”

He touched the silver ticket of one hundred taels in his arms, and felt a little apprehensive, and he didn't know how much he had to use.

Liuli couldn't help but smile, stretching out two green jade fingers.

"Twenty taels? Call...... OK. Xu Zizhen must be in his heart, fortunately, the tea money is not too exaggerated.

Liuli smiled and shook her head: "It's two thousand taels." ”

"What? Two...... Two thousand taels? Xu Zizhen was taken aback, and suddenly felt a faint pain in the crotch balls, he was really special, he had to spend two thousand taels in order to advertise, and it seemed that he couldn't even touch the hand of this oiran chick, which was too much of a loss.

Seeing him like this, Liuli couldn't hold it anymore, eating and laughing and trembling, Xu Zizhen didn't have so much silver at all, and he knew that he was at a loss, but now that he has drunk tea, people have seen it, and even if he leaves now, he has to pay the two thousand taels of silver.

"Childe, don't worry too much, is this tea money...... But it can be offset by others. Ruri couldn't help but laugh and said.

Xu Zizhen was overjoyed: "Really? Then his face fell, "You don't plan to let me stay here as a turtle slave, do you?" I'm not a showman! ”

Liuli snorted and laughed again: "That's not necessary, a character like Gongzi can't help but lose his value here, if Gongzi is inconvenient today, you might as well promise Liuli a small condition, and today's tea will naturally be offset." ”

"Uh, you say first, what are the conditions?" Xu Zizhen was panicked, afraid of some strange conditions proposed by Liuli.

Liuli supported a pair of jade arms on the coffee table, looking at him with a smile on his cheeks, and his charming appearance made Xu Zizhen's heart tingle.

"I want to ask Childe to promise me, but if there is any more rare things, such as mascara, remember to give me one first, I wonder if Childe is willing to agree?"

"This natural ...... Yes?! Xu Zizhen came back to his senses violently, "You...... How do you know about the Dao? ”
