Trees near and far hang a variety of flowers, like a piece of jade umbrella, wait until the ice wheel rises Guihua full, the place where the street is crowded, set up a lamp stand of a thousand postures, the silver candle planet is brilliant, shining like a self-day, it is really a delicate instrument, there are no wonders, these three nights are the carnival of the Tang Dynasty, thousands of households never sleep, regardless of men and women, young and old, nobles and commoners, all go to the street to visit the light market.

Since ancient times, the Yuan lamp has been prosperous, so later generations have a saying:

The east wind blooms thousands of trees at night, and blows down, and the stars are like rain.

The BMW carved car is full of incense, the sound of Feng Xiao moves, the pot light turns, and the fish and dragon dance all night

The moth snow willow is golden, and the smile is full of dark fragrance.

The crowd looked for him thousands of times, and suddenly looked back,

There were few pedestrians along the road in Cui's Qinrenfang, Li Qing rode all the way, and finally got rid of the people who were following him, and the front was close to Suzaku Street, and the pedestrians on the road were gradually blocked, so Li Qing had to hold on to the reins and let the horse go slowly.

"What are you anxious about, do you want to get rid of me?" Cui Liuliu panted and caught up.

"Miss Cui. I was just a guest at the palace of Si Ning yesterday, and it is really rude to go again today, so it is better for me to accompany Miss another day. Although Li Qing happened to get her help to get rid of the stalker, it was also absurd to really accompany her to Li Lin's mansion to appreciate beauty.

Cui Liuliu is here for him, where is she willing to let him go, she sneered and said: "You don't want to prevaricate me, I didn't say that I wanted to go to the Si Ning Palace." Hum! If you don't accompany me tonight, I will tell my mother that you coaxed me out, and you want to take the opportunity to be light of me. ”

Li Qing naturally didn't take the threat of a yellow-haired girl to heart, and he didn't bother to bother with her, he didn't need to go to the Si Ning Palace, and thought that he would have nothing to do tonight anyway. He smiled and said, "If Miss is interested, why don't we go to the lamp market." ”

Cui Liuliu thought that Li Qing was afraid of her, and she was really proud, she tried this trick repeatedly, so she thought that Li Qing, like other men, was really afraid that her mother would sue in front of the emperor, so she was willing to accompany her to play after weighing the pros and cons.

The more she thought about it, the more proud she became, urged the horse forward, and looked back and smiled, "You are not allowed to make excuses." Follow me. ”

Suzaku Street is so crowded that it is no longer possible to ride horses. Li Qing led two horses and looked around behind her, admiring the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. At this time, the tide of lights is in full swing, the street is full of men and women playing with lights, flowers are red and willow green, ordinary people and ladies, bustling, street vendors, and noisy.

In front of a small stall, a variety of headgear are hung with various headgears. Wrap it with silk threads of various colors, or set a few low-quality pearls. Attracted a large group of little ladies to look at the selection, Cui Liuliu is tall and strong, pushed away a few little ladies and squeezed in, not long after picking a large handful of headdresses, standing in front of the bronze mirror one by one to try the tape, are not satisfied, at a glance but see a little lady in the hand of the crested white hosta is quite distinctive, stretched out his hand and snatched it, put it on his head left and right to look at the mirror, others saw her dressed luxuriously, and did not dare to provoke her, they dropped their headdresses to go elsewhere.

"Hey! What do you think I'm going to wear this tiara? After shouting for a long time, she didn't see Li Qingying her, but when she squinted, she saw that he was looking at the back of a person in a daze, and she couldn't help but be very angry: "Hey! Didn't you hear me? ”

Li Qing really didn't hear her words, he found that a person was extremely familiar, and he saw that he was inquiring about the road with two entourages.

When the man turned his face, Li Qing suddenly shouted, "Mr. Jade Pot! Wang Xiancheng! Is that you? He recognized this person as Wang Changling, the county magistrate of Yibin County, Li Qing did not admit that he was wrong, this person was Wang Changling, he had just arrived in the capital, and was asking for directions on Suzaku Street, when he suddenly heard someone call him, this jade pot Mr. is Li Qingdi's patent, he immediately reacted, and when he turned around, he saw Li Qing beckoning to him ten steps away, and he met his old acquaintance in a foreign country, this indescribable joy filled the chests of the two, and the two laughed and hugged each other.

"Gong, and me!"

An attendant next to him had a white face and a long beard, but it was not Gao Zhandao.

"My lord, and me!" The other person has two big ears, it is the county official Zhang Yiming.

Li Qingxin was overjoyed, he put his arms around the shoulders of the two of them one by one, and said repeatedly: "You guys are here too, great!" That's great! ”

"Let's go! Let's find a place to talk. Head, he saw Cui Liuliu blocking the way, and his eyes glared at him fiercely, "Where are you going!" ”

"Miss Cui, I met a few old friends, why don't I send you back first, and I will definitely accompany you out shopping another day."

Cui Liuliu was in high spirits, where would she let him go, she crossed her hands on her waist and said with a cold face: "No!" I don't care what kind of friends you have, since you promised to go shopping with me, you have to talk and count. ”

If the ignorance of Yang Huahua is Li Qing's fear of history, if it is said that his indifference to the cold county lord is his man's self-esteem, then he really hates a woman at the moment, a rude and extremely selfish little woman, he held back his anger and persuaded again: "Miss Cui, please don't mess around, I'll send you home, I have something important here." ”

Cui Liuliu's face twisted, and his two eyes rolled to the sky, unmoved.

Li Qing snorted lightly, shrugged his shoulders, and casually threw the reins to her and said lightly: "I'm sorry!" Miss Cui, this is your horse, I will give it back to you. ”

He pulled the three of them and didn't look back: "Let's go!" ”

Before Li Qing could take ten steps, he heard Cui Liuliu shouting, "Li Qing, if you dare to go, I must let the emperor cut off your head!" provoked passers-by to look at her, but a few scholars who entered Beijing to take the exam rolled their eyes, as if they heard some business opportunities, and they didn't leave.

Li Qing's face was indifferent, as if he hadn't heard anything, so he just led the three of them to continue walking, but Wang Changling grabbed him, "Yangming, is she a princess?" ”

Li Qing sighed, "She is not a princess, her mother is the lord of the Tang Dynasty, and her father is Dali Siqing." ”

Gao Zhandao was startled, "Gong, how could you provoke such a barbaric noblewoman?" ”

"When do I want to provoke her?" Li Qing said hatefully: "If it weren't for Li Linfu's people following me, how could I be with her." He was about to be followed at the entrance of the alley, and Cui Liuliu was just in time to say it briefly.

Wang Changling smiled, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Forget it, brother!" Don't worry about it like Xiaoniang, and if it weren't for her, how would we meet, it can be seen that everything is arranged by God. ”

Li Qing shook his head helplessly, angry to angry, he really couldn't leave this little lady alone, in case something happened, he couldn't afford to say anything, and he wouldn't be able to explain to the curtain in the future, so he turned around and beckoned, "Let's find a place to rest, you should also be tired, come together."

Cui Liuliu bent down and shouted loudly: "What are you to me, will I leave if you tell me to go?" Tell you, I'm not going to leave today! She turned, strode over to a hibiscus lamp, her eyes fixed on the pole, and she didn't move.

"If you don't feel embarrassed, if you're not afraid, then stand! I'm leaving. After speaking, Li Qing pulled the three of them and continued to walk forward.

"Male, that's not good!" Gao Zhandao was a little worried, he glanced back at Cui Liuliu, and saw that more and more people were watching her, as if she was a beauty lamp.

Li Qing smiled, "It's okay, I naturally know it." ”

Cui Liuliu waited for a long time, but did not see Li Qing come up to beg her, when she turned around, she saw that he was really going farther and farther, and did not take himself to heart at all, this situation was the first time she encountered it, and saw everyone around the ear, pointing and pointing, and a few scholars laughed weirdly, she was flustered and scared, ran forward a few steps to catch up, but her face couldn't hang up, her teeth bit her lips tightly, and she pointed at the onlookers and shouted: "What do you see, do you know who I am?" ”

Unexpectedly, after she finished speaking, everyone burst into laughter, and a few splashed skins and **: "Of course I know, you are my mother!" "Thing, when did Cui Liuliu encounter this kind of thing, she panicked and led the horse to leave, but the horse was tied to a tree by someone, and it was tied in a dead knot, and she couldn't take it away at all, so she had to leave the horse and run. collided head-on with a person, and when he looked up, it was not Li Qing.

Li Qing smiled and said, "Let's go!" I invite you to drink. ”

She glared at him angrily, "I'm not afraid that you will take care of me. But the two legs involuntarily followed him forward.

Zhang Yiming came over and led the horse, and secretly looked at her as he walked, after all, he grew up in a small county, and he had never seen a noble girl with royal blood, Cui Liuliu found that he was peeking at him. He pursed his mouth, rolled his eyes, and walked a few steps behind Li Qing, ignoring Wang Changling and Gao Zhandao.

Several people found a small wine shop to sit down, but Cui Liuliu refused to sit with them and found a seat by himself. Li Qing ordered a pot of wine and a few side dishes for her, and asked her to pour herself a drink, but she and Wang Changling shared their farewells.

"Yang Ming, you just said that you were being followed by Li Linfu's people, what's going on?" As soon as he sat down, Wang Changling asked impatiently.

Li Qing smiled, "You can't think of it!" I am now the chief of the guard of the East Palace, a genuine Zhaowu captain, and I was just promoted this afternoon. ”

"What!" All three of them shouted in unison, looking at each other. Just entered Beijing a few days ago, and in a blink of an eye, he became the chief of the East Palace guard. If you don't talk about this kind of thing, no one will believe it when they hear it.

"It's a long story!" Li Qing lowered his voice. Describe what happened to him after entering Beijing, after all, there are some things that can't be said, especially when it comes to Yang Yuhuan, and the life experience of Lian'er.

The three of them let out a long sigh after hearing this, and they couldn't imagine that so many things had happened in just a few days.

Li Qing poured a glass of wine for each of the three of them, changed the topic, and asked with a smile: "Tell me about you, why did you come to the capital." ”

Several people glanced at each other. Wang Changling sighed and said, "We all abandoned our officials and left. ”

"What's going on?" Li Qing was taken aback, "Could it be related to the new county magistrate?" ”

Wang Changling nodded. "Exactly!" He raised his glass, drank the glass of wine, and said with some sadness: "Not only me, but the people of Yibin County miss Master Li very much!" ”

"What the hell is going on in Yibin County, tell me quickly!" Cup, eagerness flows on the surface of the eye.

"Male, let's talk about it! Lord Wang is in distress. ”

Gao Zhandao took over the topic, sorted out his thoughts and said: "The day after the new county order came, he asked everyone to pick up the wind for him, and this wind should be, but the dog official stuffed a note for each person, and asked each person to pay two to five yuan to congratulate the ceremony, and everyone naturally didn't do it, but his reception banquet was deserted, only two or three people went, and the dog official lost face, so he thought that Wang Xiancheng was doing ghosts, and after a few days, he collected some of Wang Xiancheng's usual remarks, and ran to the county to sue Wang for discussing the government in vain. I heard that Lord Assassin Shi is also preparing to report this matter to the imperial court. ”

At this time, Wang Changling sighed, and said abruptly: "I am used to living a comfortable day with Yangming, and I can no longer stand this kind of shit, I wrote a letter of resignation in a fit of anger and slapped my ass and left, but now I regret it a little, as soon as I leave, the new county order can do whatever he wants, and only the people of Yibin County will suffer." ”

He took out a thick book from his bag, "This is the book written by the people last year when Yang Ming was dismissed as acting county magistrate, and now it has increased from 30,000 to 80,000, and the people want you to go back!" ”

Li Qing was silent, raised his neck and drank a glass of wine, but he felt that the wine was extremely bitter, his eye sockets were a little sour, he took the book of ten thousand people, and carefully put it into his bag.

"I wonder what Mr. plans to do in the future?"

Wang Changling shook his head and said with a wry smile: "What else can I plan, come to the capital to find a few old friends, drink and write poems together, or travel all over the world." ”

"What about you?" Li Qing asked Gao Zhandao and Zhang Yiming again.

Gao Zhandao played with the wine glass in his hand and smiled faintly, "I remember that someone made a bet with me on the boat to Yibin County, if he was transferred to the capital within two years, I would be his bodyguard for another ten years, but it only took one year for him to enter Beijing. ”

"You guy!" Forgot. ”

"And me!" Zhang Yiming raised his hand and said: "I discussed with the skeletons, if the adults can still support us, I will go back and call them all, if the adults can't support us, then I have to commit to being a thief, be the deputy leader of the skeleton gang, and do dark things with them." ”

Speaking of secret things, Li Qingxin had a thought, people who have been successful since ancient times, who don't do shady things behind them, if they fight with others in the bright light, I'm afraid they don't even know how to die, it's rare that these people have been with them for a long time, and it's a pity not to use them well. ”

Thinking of this, Li Qing said to Zhang Yiming: "You rest for a few days, and then go back to Yibin County to call all the brothers for me, and come to Beijing to do things for me, and I will naturally support them." "Daxi, I answered the voice, I didn't want to drink anymore, I just wanted to go back to Yibin now.

At this time, there was a shouting voice from the door, "Brother Tiger Gun, you said that the red envelope promised us will not be lost." ”

"Yes! I'm also worried about this, and when we're done drinking, we'll go to him, and if he won't give it, we'll rob him of the jewels, but if you say it first, don't say it's my idea. ”
