After the night banquet in the Duhu Mansion was dispersed, Judge Fan sent Zhou Xuan's family back to the house, Lin Hanyun wanted to follow out, but was stopped by Lin Dai, Lin Hanyun said aggrievedly: "Thinking about going home outside, it's so boring to go home, my sister went to Baiyunguan again, and Brother Zhou Xuan didn't come to drink tea and tell stories at night, and he suffocated!" ”

In the past six months, Lin Hanyun has followed Zhou Xuan to juju, aerobics, cockfighting, gambling on Go, traveling everywhere, already playing wild, where can I hold my heart, now I only feel that the capital is like a cage, but my father strictly ordered her not to run out of the house, at least after Lin Duo's wedding, she will be allowed to go out of the house alone, Lin Dai means that the prince will come when Lin Duo gets married, and then see who Lin Hanyun is the famous flower? Lin Dai really didn't expect that he, a little girl like a wild boy, would attract the favor of both the Marquis of Xinzhou and the crown prince, making Fangzhen Dahao Lin Duhu both troubled and happy.

Zhou Xuan saw that Lin Hanyun's little mouth was pouting, and he couldn't help but think of the scene of secretly kissing her in the carriage, and his heart fluttered, and said: "Sister Hanyun Shao'an, don't be impatient, I will accompany you to Baiyun tomorrow to watch Sister Wangdaoyun, so I want to invite her back to the Duhu Mansion, how about it?" ”

"Yes, yes." Lin Hanyun was happy: "Only Brother Zhou Xuan has a way to invite my sister back." ”

Since Zhou Xuan opened his mouth, Lin Dai didn't agree, nodded and said: "It's okay for Nephew Xuan to visit Daoyun, I don't know if she is tired from the journey when she comes back this time, and she is a little indifferent and unhappy." ”

Judge Fan sent Zhou Xuan back to Zhou's mansion on foot, and the bright moon rose and slowly took in the coolness.

Judge Fan is now very familiar with Zhou Xuan, and knows that this Marquis of Zhou, who is in the ascendant, is not arrogant or impatient, and is a very good person to get along with, so he immediately avoided Dr. Qin's family. said: "Master Hou." Xia Guan has a sentence to say. ”

Zhou Xuan faintly guessed what Judge Fan was going to say, so he asked Qin Que and Su Needle to go back to the house first, he had something to talk to Master Fan, and after Dr. Qin walked away, Fang said: "Lord Fan has something to say." ”

The magistrate said bluntly: "When will the Hou Ye propose to Lord Du Hu and make a marriage with the second lady?" ”

Zhou Xuan's old face turned red, knowing that the ambiguity with Lin Hanyun along the way was looked at by this Master Fan, he hesitated for a moment, and said, "I do have this intention, but I am afraid that Uncle Lin will not allow it." After all, I already have two wives. ”

Judge Fan smiled: "This Hou Ye doesn't have to worry, three wives and four concubines are commonplace, and the two ladies in the house are also extremely virtuous, and the Lord Du Hu will not allow it, but-"

Speaking of this, Judge Fan paused, changed his tone and said solemnly: "The lower official respects the Hou Ye. There is one thing that has to be reminded of Hou Ye, when the East Palace was a draft envoy in Jiangzhou, he had proposed to Lord Du Hu, and the second miss of the new year entered Beijing to let the emperor and the queen see, but the queen mother has not said that maybe the queen thinks that the second lady's temperament is not suitable for the crown princess, but the east palace itself did not say it clearly, if the east palace insists on marrying the second lady, I am afraid that the queen will also agree, so the queen must take this into account. ”

Zhou Xuanxin said: "It's really annoying, if Hanyun hadn't met me so bold." Then no one really dares to marry, maybe she will end up in a situation where she doesn't marry in the East Palace and no one else marries, and she has to enter the Baiyun Temple, pitiful, Brother Zhou Xuan must help her in this matter. He said: "Thank you Lord Fan for reminding me, I will take care of this matter, and the East Palace will come to Jiangzhou in a few days, and I will have a good talk with him." ”

Judge Fan arched his hand and said: "Master Hou is wise, he will definitely handle it properly, and then the lower official will ask for a cup of happy wine to drink." ”

Zhou Xuan laughed: "How can you miss Master Fan." ”

On the morning of May 19. Zhou Xuan took the three idiots and Lin Ning to the Duhu Mansion to pick up Lin Hanyun, Lin Dai ordered Lao Dong to follow the second lady, and the five of them rode out of the west gate of Jiangzhou to Baiyun Temple, Lin Hanyun was like a bird out of the cage, chattering non-stop along the way. Very happy.

The summer solstice has passed. The scorching sun scorched the earth, and the air smelled of steaming. Except for Lao Dong, the other four people all wore hats to shade the sun, and the wind swept when the horses were running, which was quite cool.

Zhou Xuan said loudly: "This is the fast wind!" ”

Four or five miles away in a blink of an eye, a shallow stream gurgling obstructs the road, a simple wooden bridge on the stream, on the opposite bank is a thousand magnolias, and the Baiyun Temple is hidden in the flowers and trees.

Everyone urged the horse to cross the bridge, from the magnolia down, the magnolia is the flowering period between March and April, at this time the flowers fall all over the ground, scattered into mud to make soil, the horse's hooves step over, there is still a lingering fragrance.

The door of the Taoist temple was closed, and after knocking on the door for a long time, a Taoist boy came to answer the door, recognized Zhou Xuan and Lin Hanyun, and opened the door to invite them in.

The three idiots, Lin Ning and Lao Dong were waiting in the Shanmen Palace, Zhou Xuan and Lin Hanyun followed the female Taoist boy through the Lingguan Hall and the Sanqing Palace, and came to the small courtyard of Jingyi Fairy Qingxiu, the courtyard door was closed, Lin Hanyun knocked on the door and said: "Sister, it's me, Hanyun, Brother Zhou Xuan is also here." ”

The door opened quickly, it was Mingfeng, and soon, Jianyue also ran out in broken steps, Jingyi Fairy went to Baiyun Temple to cultivate, and these two personal maids naturally had to come to serve, but they were all young girls, and they still felt very depressed about the lonely life of the Taoist Temple, so they were all happy to see the second lady and Zhou Houye coming.

Lin Hanyun asked, "What about my sister?" ”

Mingfeng said: "Sit quietly in the backyard gazebo." ”

Lin Hanyun took Zhou Xuan's hand and walked to the backyard, while saying, "Brother Zhou Xuan, it's up to you this time, your three-inch incorruptible tongue should be powerful." ”

Zhou Xuan heard Lin Hanyun talk about his tongue, so he stared at her small mouth and smiled meaningfully.

Lin Hanyun also knew that she was blushing, she wrinkled her nose at Zhou Xuan, suddenly stood on tiptoe, put her small mouth to Zhou Xuan's ear, and said in a low voice: "Brother Zhou Xuan, you can persuade my sister to go back to the house, and I will let you kiss her." ”

Wow, why is this so familiar, which song is sung?

Zhou Xuanmu didn't squint and said, "Is there any mistake, I let you kiss enough." ”

Lin Hanyun hung Zhou Xuan's arm, and the whole person hung on Zhou Xuan, and said: "Hmph, Brother Zhou Xuan is really bad, I know that you took advantage of me, and it's a big advantage, you really think I'm stupid, I don't even know this, I'm just, I just think it's fun." ”

Zhou Xuan looked back. The two maids of Mingfeng and Jianyue deliberately fell behind several feet away. Then he said: "It turns out that you deliberately pretended to be stupid to seduce me, you are simply a little goblin." ”

"Leprechaun?" Lin Hanyun grinned and said, "Yes, yes, I like this nickname, you call me that when the two of us are there." ”

Zhou Xuan felt that his face was tough, but he didn't expect Lin Hanyun to be inferior to her, and he really couldn't do anything about her, so he stretched out his hand and slapped her little round buttocks, and said, "I'm going to beat the little goblin with a golden hoop stick." Three times in his heart, he said, "I am pure."

Lin Hanyun heard the new word "golden hoop stick", knew that Zhou Xuan had a story again, and forgot to be beaten. Hurriedly asked: "Golden hoop stick, what is the allusion?" ”

Zhou Xuan said: "It's a long story, I'll tell you when I have time, Hanhan, let me ask you, do you want to marry me?" You took advantage of me, and it seems unreasonable not to marry me. ”

Lin Hanyun said: "I've thought about it. Still can't get married. ”

Zhou Xuan was speechless, it was too much of a failure, how could he get the crown prince Li Jian, even Lin Hanyun didn't agree to marry!

Lin Hanyun said: "Brother Zhou Xuan, it's not that I don't like you, there is a reason why I don't marry you, after my second brother gets married, you will go back to Jinling, right, I will follow you——"

Zhou Xuan snorted: "Don't think about it!" ”

Lin Hanyun said: "Brother Zhou Xuan, don't worry, if I promise to marry you, then I will get engaged or something." Then I can't see each other again until I really get married, just like my second brother and Danyuan's sister-in-law, I can't see each other for more than a year, Brother Zhou Xuan, if I can't see you for more than a year, won't I suffocate to death? So it's better to be a brother and sister. ”

Zhou Xuan was angry and funny, and he was even more moved, it turned out that Miss Lin Er still had this thought, she was so innocent and cute, she was really a very pure and tempting goblin!

Zhou Xuan was about to show his three-inch incorruptible tongue, when Lin Hanyun suddenly "shhh Pointing to the small garden in front, Zhou Xuan saw that the magnolia planted in the small garden was still magnolia, not as tall as in front of the view, and there was a delicate octagonal pavilion in the middle of the flowers and trees. There are long windows on eight sides. The breeze is coming, and the shadows of the trees are swaying. It's a great place to cool off in the summer.

In the octagonal pavilion, there is an ebony case, three dragon beard grass futons, a teapot on the case, three teacups, Jingyi Fairy Dao bun is high, the bamboo hairpin is obliquely inserted, and the spotless moon-white robe is softly ironed on her slender *, this beautiful crown is supported by one hand at this time, elbows support the low case, is closing her eyes and sleeping, and a roll of pale yellow paper "Nanhua Zhenjing" in her hand, the pages of the book are turned with the wind -

"Sister Daoyun is asleep, let's not disturb and sit quietly in front of her."

Zhou Xuan signaled Mingfeng and Jianyue to be silent, he pulled Lin Hanyun and tiptoed into the octagonal pavilion, sitting on the two dragon beard grass futons in front of the ebony case, as if he was meditating and meditating.

In the Taoist temple, the fairy Jingyi no longer wears a veil, the cheeks that are not powdered are white and red, the bridge of the nose is straight like a jade carving, the eyebrows are neat and delicate, the lip line is distinct, the lip color is bright red, the eyes are closed and the eyelashes are fine, and it is a beautiful summer sleep picture.

Zhou Xuan had a strong creative impulse, he wanted to paint such a picture for Jingyi Fairy, so he immediately got up quietly and told Mingfeng to get paper, pen and paint in a hurry.

The paper and ink pigments were quickly obtained, Lin Hanyun rushed to grind the ink, and woke up the Jingyi Fairy, seeing that it was Zhou Xuan and Lin Hanyun, he quickly sat up straight, blushed with a pretty face, and said abruptly: "Brother Xuan and Hanyun, the female Taoist loves the coolness here, reciting the "Nanhua Sutra", and fell asleep unconsciously." ”

Lin Hanyun said: "Sister, Brother Zhou Xuan wants to paint for you, you hold your cheeks like that, close your eyes and let Brother Zhou Xuan paint." ”

Fairy Jingyi shook her head shyly: "Don't paint, what are you doing here?" ”

Zhou Xuandao: "I came to visit Sister Daoyun, I can't listen to my sister's tea ceremony and the sound of the flute, and I am melancholy every night." ”

Fairy Jingyi's heart ached, and she almost burst into tears.

"I must draw Sister Daoyun!"

Zhou Xuan is now in the chest of the painting is surging, just a piece of Chengxintang paper spread on the ground, swaying painting, he to Gu Hong middle school painting for several months, has gradually gotten rid of the shackles of sketching, the use of the brush is very skilled, and his knowledge is broader than Gu Hong, he knows the freehand, small freehand, splashed ink landscape, has seen Mi Fu, Xu Wei, Bada Shanren and Zhang Daqian's amazing and brilliant paintings, a tube of Changfeng sheep in hand, swaying a little dyeing, smearing and sketching, from time to time to look up at Jingyi Fairy, and bow his head to paint.

Brother Xuan was so attentive that Fairy Jingyi had no choice but to sit still.

Lin Hanyun, Mingfeng and Jianyue, the two maids, stood behind Zhou Xuan and stretched out their heads to look, they had all seen Zhou Xuan painting before, but it was very different from today. It used to be meticulous and meticulous. Now it's like graffiti, smearing a stroke in the east and a stroke in the west, I don't know what I'm painting?

Zhou Xuan changed a pen, dipped it in red color, painted red lips in a cloud of ink, and slightly dyed his cheeks, and then changed a small tube of sheep's hair, with a few strokes, swept out a pair of closed eyes, and the eyelashes seemed to be brushed casually. The shape is not similar but the god is similar, and then he sketches a slender white hand, and forcefully scratches the black bun on the head, and a thin bamboo hairpin comes out, and there is a large mass of ink and white space below the neck-

This one was completed in one go and took only two quarters of an hour.

Zhou Xuan put down his pen and stood up. After watching it for a while, he praised himself: "This is the best painting I have drawn so far, three words, there is **!" ”

Lin Hanyun and the three of them looked at each other, but they didn't dare to say anything bad, and they couldn't see what was good, so they looked at each other.

Fairy Jingyi straightened out her robe, got up and looked, the penmanship was simple and unrestrained, and delicate. The slender fingers are like white orchids, the ink color is white and a little red lips, the elegance is delicate, the pen and ink are vivid, and the demeanor is like.

Lin Hanyun asked: "Sister, is Brother Zhou Xuan's painting good?" ”

Fairy Jingyi said: "Brother Xuan will become the great painter of the Tang Kingdom." Zhou Xuan sat on the futon again and said, "Uncle Lin asked me to invite Sister Daoyun back to live in the mansion, the wedding of the Lin Duo brothers is approaching, and there are still many things in the house that Sister Daoyun needs to do." ”

Fairy Jingyi shook her head and said, "There are many things in the house, and there is a stepmother in charge. Why do you need Nudao to intervene, Brother Xuan only needs to help Nudao take care of Hanyun. ”

Lin Hanyun complained: "If my sister is not in the house, Brother Zhou Xuan will not come to the Nine Difficulties Mountain House, I am so lonely, and my father will not let me go out of the house." ”

Fairy Jingyi lowered her head. The long neck is like a swan. With a light sigh, she said, "The female Dao will only go back on the day of Brother Duo's wedding-" After a pause, she raised her eyes to look at Zhou Xuan. Asked: "Brother Xuan hasn't proposed to Hanyun yet?" ”

Zhou Xuan was embarrassed and looked at Lin Hanyun.

Lin Hanyun smiled and said, "Brother Zhou Xuan begged, but I didn't agree." ”

"Ahh Fairy Jingyi's eyes widened: "Why is this?" You, don't you like to be with Zhou Xuan? ”

Lin Hanyun said: "If you like it, you don't necessarily have to marry him, and my sister doesn't like it too-uh, I won't say it." ”

Fairy Jingyi's face was already flushed, and she said, "Okay, you guys go back, and on the 28th, the female Dao will return to the Duhu Mansion." ”

Zhou Xuan said: "Okay, I come to Guanli every night to ask Sister Daoyun for tea ceremony, and my sister hasn't taught me the method of condensing tea into trees and mountains last time." ”

Fairy Jingyi bit her lip: "Brother Xuan, don't come, the view won't open the door at night." ”

Zhou Xuan said: "I have a way to get in. ”

Lin Hanyun said: "Brother Zhou Xuan can climb the wall. ”

Fairy Jingyi couldn't cry or laugh, and said angrily: "You must have taken me to Qingxiu and forced me to go back?" ”

Zhou Xuan smiled silently, and Lin Hanyun was very simple: "Yes!" ”

Fairy Jingyi glanced at Lin Hanyun, and the white style made Zhou Xuan's eyes dazzled.

Fairy Jingyi thought about it, Zhou Xuan is in Jiangzhou, she really can't clean up the land, Brother Xuan has always been bold and daring, there is nothing he doesn't dare to do, it's better to move back first, anyway, Brother Xuan will go to Jinling in a few days, I'm afraid that there will be no day to see each other in the future, and said lightly: "That's good, the female Dao will go back and live for a few days first." ”

Lin Hanyun was overjoyed, and secretly gave Zhou Xuan a thumbs up, Zhou Xuan tapped his lips with his fingers, and Lin Hanyun's face was slightly red.

There is not much to pack, there is a carriage in the view, Jingyi Fairy and two maids got into the carriage, followed Zhou Xuan and the five people back to the city, when they crossed the wooden bridge on the stream, they saw that there were three people on the other side of the river who were also going to cross the bridge by horse, and saw that the carriage had driven on the wooden bridge, so they retreated back and stood at the head of the bridge by the stream.

One of the three rode a snow-white horse, with a straight waist, two eyebrows like two delicate little swords, a nose like a hanging gall, and lips like grease.

The three idiots said in a low voice: "Master, Gongzi Lian Chang is here." ”

Lian Chang Gongzi received a secret letter from Xiahou Tassel on the tenth day of the first month of May, and was anxious to discuss with Gan Simou, Gan Simou was suspicious, it is difficult to say whether this matter is true or false, Li Yu is also very likely to do this, and Chen Kai, the squire of the military department, and his nephew Chen Ji are indeed training in the Jianzhou area, how can Lian Chang Gongzi not be in a hurry, on the one hand, let Gan Simou go back to Jinling first, inquire about the exact news of this matter, and ask King Jing to find a way to save Li Yucheng's life, and on the other hand, he sent someone to report to his brother-in-law Qingyuan Jiedu to make Chen Si'an, and he himself rode lightly Jian never to chase Zhou Xuan, and so on to chase to Xinzhou, Zhou Xuan had already gone to Hongzhou, chased to Hongzhou, and Zhou Xuan returned to Jiangzhou.

On the day after Zhou Xuan returned to Jiangzhou, even Chang Gongzi also arrived, wanting to see Xiahou Tassel first, but as soon as he entered the Hou Gate, he was as deep as the sea, and waited for a day to see the little maid Yu'er appear, and immediately contacted Xiahou Tassel and learned the details, Lian Chang Gongzi ordered Xiahou Tassel to continue to stay by Zhou Xuan's side, and he wanted to talk to Zhou Xuan in person, so he chased to Baiyun Temple.
