Chapter 7: Jealousy
Chapter 7: Jealousy
Fu Su hesitated for a moment and said, "Under Zhao Su, Zhao Guoren!" After the death of the country, he took refuge in Yan Kingdom! ”
Xiao Chunfeng smiled and said: "I just said that if there is art to dominate the crowd, Chunfeng is willing to toast three glasses." Mr. Zhao's song should be honored, and the spring breeze should be a toast for three cups. I wonder if Mr. can appreciate his face? ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone present suddenly changed color, and their eyes all showed a look of envy and madness. Fu Su complained bitterly in his heart, so he had to bite the bullet and said: "Since everyone has this good intention, then Zhao Su is disrespectful!" ”
Xiao Chunfeng looked happy, and the slender jade hand raised the wine lord and immediately toasted Fusu three cups, and the smiling demeanor made everyone can't help but be a little jealous.
But fortunately, everyone's attention quickly turned to the other person, because it was Gao Yuan's turn to leave.
Gao gradually departed from the fruit to live up to the reputation of the world's unparalleled construction art, and the world-shaking construction art showed its power at this time, and everyone listened to it as if they were fascinated and applauded. I even laughed and toasted three glasses of spring breeze, and I couldn't help but feel proud for a while!
The next Jing Ke seemed to just come to see the excitement, or didn't want to cause any trouble, just improvised a song, and the reaction was only average.
Although the following several important ministers of the Yan State sang or played, they did not cause a sensation, and they were obviously lacking in talent.
Soon arrived at Changping, the prince of Chu State, Changping stood up and said proudly: "I am good at martial arts in Xia Ping, although I am not good at poetry and Qin Xiao and other elegant things, but I have a lot of experience in the way of swords. If you laugh and everyone does not give up, Changping is willing to offer ugliness once! ”
Xiao Chunfeng said with a smile: "I have heard for a long time that Gongzi's swordsmanship is unparalleled, and his name is shocking to Chu State, if Chunfeng can see Gongzi's stunts, it will be enough to comfort his life!" ”
Changping was overjoyed when he heard this, nodded slightly, and drew his sword in his hand with a "cangchang" sound. Fusu opened his eyes and saw that the sword was about three feet and seven inches long, and the sword body made of meteorite iron was transparent and bright, and it looked dazzling and cold under the illumination of the light.
The Yue people are good at forging swords, and the Yue State has long been annexed by the Chu State, so the Chu State has many first-class swordsmiths, although it is slightly inferior to the Qin State in the bronze weapon casting and manufacturing skills, but it is enough to dominate the six countries in the Kwantung region in the manufacture of iron weapons.
When Fusu was thinking about it, Changping had already begun to dance the sword: the light suddenly flashed in mid-air, the wind and thunder were faint, and the dazzling long sword was like a fierce dragon flying and hovering in mid-air, and it fell from the sky like petals in the sky; The posture of Changping sword dance is also very beautiful, reflecting a perfect combination of strength and beauty. It can be seen that Changping's swordsmanship is indeed a lot of hard work, but it is a famous teacher!
After a while, Changping danced, put away his sword and stood, and his posture was very chic. Everyone was thunderous with joy for a while, and they applauded one after another!
In the early years of the Warring States Period, wars were frequent, and men were basically martial, so whether the swordsmanship was good or not often became an important means for men to show their ability and status. The aristocracy of various countries also basically learned swords, but there were many famous swordsmen. This Changpingjun is one of them!
Prince Dan asked for help from Chu, and when he saw this, he preemptively praised him: "The swordsmanship of the prince of Changping is really good, and he deserves the title of the famous sword of the Chu country!" Changping saw that everyone reacted lively, although he was proud in his heart, but he said with a humble look on his face: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has won the award!" ”
Su Gu also wanted to make friends with Changping, but was preempted by Prince Dan, although he was unhappy in his heart, he said with a look of admiration on his face: "I have heard for a long time that the prince is a master of your country's swordsmanship, the great general Xiang Yan, when I saw it today, it was really good, there is really a trend that the blue is better than the blue!" Such a wonderful swordsmanship, you deserve to laugh at everyone toasting three glasses! ”
As soon as Su Gu lifted the sedan chair like this, Changping suddenly showed joy on his face, and his good impression of Su Gu was greatly enhanced, but Prince Dan immediately showed a trace of unhappiness on his face.
Xiao Chunfeng said with a smile: "Changping Gongzi's swordsmanship is really exquisite, enough to deserve three cups of spring breeze toast!" Then he shall raise his glass and offer wine.
At this moment, one person was displeased and said: "Wait, although the swordsmanship of Changping Gongzi is wonderful, it is only good to see and not to use, how to laugh at everyone with three glasses of wine!" ”
Everyone was taken aback when they heard this, among the courtiers of all countries present, the Chu State represented by Changping was the strongest, and everyone did not want to please him. Now there are people who are sarcastic, are they not afraid of setting themselves on fire. Everyone took a closer look, but it was the envoy of Wei: Doctor Huang Wu.
Seeing Changping Jun's face cold, he said angrily: "Huang Wu, what do you mean by this?" Although Huang Wu is over thirty years old, he is very well maintained, and he is also a beautiful man, he just poured a glass of wine leisurely when he heard the words, and said with a smile: "People often say, 'Chu people are crowned by monkeys', and it is really true, this kind of swordsmanship dares to come out to offer ugliness, it is really ridiculous, ridiculous!" ”
The young and vigorous people in Changping were ridiculed in front of the admiring beauty, how could they hang on their faces, and they suddenly said angrily: "Huang Wu, what do you mean by being cold and sarcastic, you have the ability, let's compare!" Huang Wu stood up and said: "Compare and compare, I also have this intention!" ”
Seeing the strangeness, Fusu hurriedly asked Prince Dan: "His Royal Highness the Prince, why do these two seem to have a deep hatred?" Prince Dan smiled bitterly and said: "Zhao Qing is not clear, this Changping and Huang Wu are both admirers of laughing talents, and among all the people who pursue laughter, they are the strongest." Now that the rivals in love see each other, they are naturally very red-eyed. Moreover, this Huang Wu is a descendant of Xinling County of the former Wei State, and he has always been dissatisfied with the Chu State, so when he saw Changping mining, he was inevitably unconvinced. As the host, I have to pull the rack! ”
Hurriedly got up and said, "Prince Changping, Mr. Huang, you are all distinguished guests of my Yan Kingdom, give Dan a little thin noodles." If you have something to say slowly, why hurt your peace! ”
Changping saw that the crown prince Dan was fighting, and it was not good not to give the host face, so he had to endure his anger and said: "Since His Royal Highness the prince has spoken, I will not care about him in general!" ”
Huang Wu only snorted coldly and said, "If you are lucky, if you are in the Wei Kingdom, you will definitely want to taste the power of my swordsmanship!" Changping said angrily: "What's so great about your Wei Kingdom, do you have my big Chuqiang!" ”
Su Gu didn't want the two to make a big fuss, and seeing that the two of them had a tendency to be angry again, he hurriedly said: "Forget it, forget it." Changping Gongzi has excellent swordsmanship, and Mr. Huang is famous, and his swordsmanship is also excellent. It's better to let Mr. Huang also dance the sword, let me wait to open my eyes! ”
Xiao Chunfeng seemed to have a wry smile on her face, obviously she didn't expect that the two of them would be jealous to such a point, so she resolved: "Yes, although Chunfeng has admired Dr. Huang's swordsmanship for a long time, he has never been fortunate enough to see it, and I ask Mr. to give me advice!" ”
Huang Wu said proudly: "Since Meng Su Xiang and everyone laughs and sees love, then Huang Wu will be ugly!" ”
Saying that, he also came to the banquet, and "Cangchang" drew the long sword under his waist, his posture was vigorous and powerful, and it was very beautiful, just this point knew that Huang Wu's swordsmanship was by no means weak. And its long sword is cold and cold, and the sword body is like a pool of autumn water flowing up and down, which is obviously also a peerless good sword.
Immediately, I saw Huang Wu's long sword holding a sword flower in mid-air, and there was a sense of brilliance in the room for a while. Then, Huang Wu's long sword roared sharply, with a swishing sound, and the long sword was in rapid motion, often swishing in a row. Because the speed of the sword is very fast, it often gives people the illusion that four or five swords are emitted at the same time. And the sword style is continuous, like a stormy wave, wave after wave, which implies infinite killing opportunities.
Fu Su secretly praised in his heart: "Although Changping's swordsmanship is good-looking, its speed and ruthlessness are indeed inferior to Huang Wu!" After a few glances in his eyes, his mind suddenly moved: "This time, the Yan State wants to unite among the countries: Korea is dead, and the rest of the country is the weakest, so it can not be considered too much, while the Wei State has limited strength, but it does not have too much influence; Only the Chu State and the Qi State are strong enough to be the enemy of our Qin State. The State of Qi is easy to deal with, the King of Qi is timid, as long as he sends an envoy to expose the matter of the combination, and then threatens him with words, presumably the State of Qi will not dare to disobey; Only the state of Chu has made enemies with our Qin state because of the king of Chu Huai and other things, and if it sends troops to attack the hinterland of our Qin country when our main force is far away in the land of Yan Zhao, it can also be worried. Therefore, if the state of Chu can be immobilized, even if Wei and Han conspire this time, they will not be able to make any big waves at all. And isn't there a good opportunity to drive a wedge between Chu, Wei and other countries! Fusu couldn't help but secretly rejoice in his heart.
At this moment, Huang Wujian had finished dancing, and everyone applauded loudly and applauded. Huang Wu couldn't help but look pale, and glanced at Changping provocatively. Changping's face turned pale when he saw this, obviously knowing that his swordsmanship was slightly inferior, and his eyes couldn't help but flash a killing intent in his eyes!
Su Gu said with a smile: "The swordsmanship of Changping Gongzi and Mr. Huang Wu is really exquisite, which can be called a unique in the world, it is better to laugh at everyone and toast two people and three cups together!" ”
Xiao Chunfeng glanced at Yan Yan when he heard this, and got off the donkey down the slope and said: "What Su Xiang said is very true, the swordsmanship of the two gentlemen has opened the eyes of the spring breeze, and the spring breeze will toast the two of them with three cups!" ”
The beauties respect each other, but it is not good, although the two of them have infinite murder in their eyes, they also hold a cup and drink three cups in a row with a smile on the spring breeze.
Seeing this, Fusu secretly sneered in his heart, took a drink in his mouth, and continued to watch.
The rest of the people are usually angry, and even Yan Xiangsu did not win the favor of the beauty.
Everyone rejoiced until the evening, and each was drunk for seven or eight minutes, and then they dispersed and went home.
******
Inside, only Fusu and Qi Hong were seated.
"The prince of Changping of Chu State, now lives in the East Pavilion of Jicheng City, and there are about two hundred warriors accompanying him, of which there are about three or five good players, all of whom are swordsmen in front of the Chu State!"
"Huang Wu, the doctor of Wei, now lives in the west pavilion of Jicheng City, and there are about two hundred warriors accompanying him, and there are many good hands, there are seven or eight people, all of whom are famous swordsmen of Wei!"
Qi Hong said and asked Fusu: "Childe, according to what Gongzi saw last night: because of the vinegar sea, Changping and Huangwu are quite discordant, and the Yan people seem to know this, so they are placed separately. However, although I know that the two are not harmonious, how to use the room, can the son have a good plan? ”
Fusu frowned and said, "Although I know that the two are not in harmony, I don't have any friendship with the two, and I have no good plan for a while!" ”
Qi Hong saw that Fusu was distressed, and kindly enlightened: "Childe doesn't have to worry, fortunately, the countries are also new to Yan Kingdom, and it will take a while to conspire, so there is no hurry." Why don't you come with me to the courtyard to relax? ”
Fusu thought about it, it's okay, since there is no plan for a while, maybe there will be good inspiration for a break. and Qi Hong came to the courtyard.
It is the height of summer, the flowers in the courtyard are in full bloom, the green grass is verdant, and the evening breeze is blowing in the evening, the fragrance is rich, fresh and pleasant.
Fang didn't take a few steps, and came in a hurry unintentionally: "Childe, there is a maidservant girl at Miss Xiaochun who wants to see you?" "Oh!" Fusu was stunned and said, "Please!" ”
Suddenly, a beautiful and refined beauty came to her.
"Little maid Zhao'er, meet the son!"
"Excuse me, I don't know what you want to say?"
"Oh, that's right. My young lady heard a song from Mr. yesterday, and she wanted to invite Mr. to the banquet again, but I wonder if Mr. can appreciate his face? ”
"Oh, that's right. I wonder who else is invited to this banquet? ”
"There are three other people, it is Mr. Gao Yanli, Prince Changping, Mr. Huang Wu and His Royal Highness Prince Dan!"
Fusu's eyes flashed, and he immediately thought that this was a great opportunity to get to know Changping and Huang Wu, so he said: "Please reply to your young lady, Fusu will be here soon!" ”
"Then the slave and maid will take their leave!"
Zhao'er went, and Qi Hong couldn't help but say a little sourly: "There is a maid like this, you can imagine the beauty of its master." It seems that Childe is going to be favored by beauties again this time! ”
Fusu laughed and said, "Sister Hong will also be jealous!" Hehe, rest assured. This time in Yan Country, there are many crises, how can I have the mind to spend all my time drinking. However, this is a good opportunity to make friends with Changping and Huang Wu! ”
Qi Hong's face turned red and said: "It's not early, the son is going to the banquet, you have to prepare early!" Fusu was amused in his heart and couldn't help but nod.
******
As usual, Fusu only brought Wuxin and Wuxuan to the banquet, and went straight to Tingyuxuan.
The sun sets, the sunset is ten thousand roads, the breeze is gentle, refreshing and pleasant. When the three of Fusu were walking on the road, they suddenly heard the sound of carriages and horses behind them, and one of them shouted: "Is Zhao Su Gongzi in front?" ”
Fusu looked back and saw that it was Changping, the son of Chu State, and hurriedly stopped his horse and said, "It's down!" ”
Changping smiled and said: "Is Zhao Qing also going to laugh at everyone's mansion for a banquet!" Fusu nodded and said, "Exactly, looking at Gongzi's trip, he must be on the next road?" ”
Changping nodded and said: "Yesterday I listened to Zhao Qing's song, I was quite emotional, but I talked about it flawlessly, if Zhao Qing didn't give up, why don't you take a car with me and talk about it in detail?" ”
Fu Su was stunned for a moment, secretly happy in his heart, and hurriedly said: "I also have this intention in the next!" So he handed over the horse to the two of them, but got into the carriage and rode with Changping.
The carriage was richly decorated, with silk walls, carpets, and even a beautiful maid.
Changping said: "I heard that Gongzi was originally a Zhao person, and he only came to Yan Country after the country was broken?" Fusu nodded and said: "Exactly, I originally thought that Yan Guo was in the northern frontier and would be safer, who would have thought that the Qin soldiers would come one after another, and the troops in Zhongshan really made it quite difficult to sleep in the middle." I didn't expect that the world is so big, and there is no piece of quiet land to spend the rest of my life! ”
Changping laughed and said, "What Zhao Qing said is not good. Although the Qin State is strong, my Chu State is prosperous, and I am not afraid to let it go, how can it be compared to the small Yan State. If Zhao Qing doesn't give up, when Changping returns to Chu, he can return south with me. He also has a little status in the Chu State, which is enough to make Mr. prosperous for a lifetime, without worrying about food and clothing! ”
Fusu was taken aback when he heard this, and said with a smile: "How dare an ordinary person be so loved by Gongzi?" ”
Changping smiled: "Why should Zhao Qing be too modest. Although he is a Chu person, he is not a deaf and dumb person in Yan Kingdom, and he knows that he is an extraordinary person when he saw his son yesterday. After a little inquiry, I actually knew that Gongzi not only sang well, but also talked about a good piano with one hand, played well with one hand, and had excellent swordsmanship and extraordinary conversation, which is really a rare talent in the world! Even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Yan Kingdom was quite polite to Zhao Qing! ”
Fusu was taken aback a little, and said in his heart: "Presumably it was because I saw that the spring breeze seemed to favor me yesterday, so Changping immediately sent someone to touch my bottom line." This Changping also has such strength in Yan Kingdom, but it should not be underestimated! He smiled and said, "Childe is too praised!" However, Yan Kingdom is not a place to stay for a long time, so Zhao Sucai has always refused to join the command of Prince Dan. If the son does not give up, he is willing to serve the dogs and horses! ”
Changping was overjoyed when he saw this: "Zhao Qing saw love like this, it really made Changping overjoyed!" Fusu said: It not only means that he is willing to become a subordinate of Changping, but also takes the initiative to give up the gesture of competing with Changping.
Pingbai went to a possible rival in love, and received a capable subordinate, which made Changping dislike.
Changping hesitated slightly, and then took out a brocade box from the car behind him. When the box opened, it was a pair of crystal clear flawless jade walls. Changping said with a smile: "Zhao Qing is very loving, Changping is not polite, so I think a pair of playthings are a gift, I hope Zhao Qing must accept it!" ”
Fusu grew up in the royal family, and he has seen countless rare treasures, but it is the first time he has seen such a white and flawless, dazzling jade wall, and he can't help but be moved in his heart: "If you are thirsty for talent, you spend a lot of money, it seems that this Changping is not a person who has lived under the people for a long time!" ”
After thinking about it for a while, he pretended to be grateful and said: "Since the son sees love so much, then Zhao Su is disrespectful!" Changping laughed and said, "That's how it should be!" ”
Fusu then said with a look of gratitude and gratitude: "Yesterday, I saw that Gongzi and that Huang Wu were quite discordant at the banquet, but that Huang Wu seemed to be rude!" When Changping heard this, a cold light flashed in his eyes and said: "Well, laughing at everyone is such a beautiful person, I am determined to win." It's really annoying that this person has been wanting and fighting for a long time! ”
Fu Su said with a smile: "Please forgive Zhao Su for saying bluntly: although the son is talented and heroic, but Huang Wu is not afraid to let it go." The most annoying thing is that Huang Wu is also a Wei person, and he is quite 'close to the water and the building gets the moon first'. ”
Changping's eyes flashed when he heard this: "......What does Zhao Qing mean?" Fusu sneered and said: "As the saying goes, 'no poison is not a husband', Huang Wu does not die, how can the son have a chance of winning!" ”
Changping was taken aback, obviously not expecting Fusu to be so bold, and said with some hesitation: "But that Huang Wu is an important minister of Wei after all, if he is killed, I am afraid that it will cause a war between Chu and Wei!" ”
Fusu smiled: "Not necessarily! Even if Wei wants to retaliate, there must be evidence, right? As long as it is done cleanly and secretively, and Childe has evidence of an alibi, who will suspect Childe? ”
Changping said with joy on his face when he heard this: "According to what Zhao Qing said, can Zhao Qing help me?" Fu Su said with a smile: "There are quite a few good players under his command, and one of them is deeply familiar with the way of thorns. As long as the son spends a few days, under the pretext of going out to hunt, he will take all his troops out of Jicheng, and the rest will be the following! ”
Changping was overjoyed when he heard this: "Zhao Qing is really talented. If it can be done, Changping will be grateful! ”
Fu Su sneered in his heart: "You are too happy, I don't want Huang Wu's life, I want your life!" But he said: "Another day, when the prince hugs the beauty, the Wei people must be angry to death." Fertilizer water has flowed into the fields of outsiders! ”
"Hahaha......" The two couldn't help but laugh.
