Volume 4 Return Seven, it's okay
At dusk at the end of Shen, the slanting sun and willows, the float traveled to Yuehufang, as in previous years, a group of scholars and scholars stopped in the middle of the road, and said in unison: "Shikui is a great talent, I still have to ask for advice at the end of the school." β
The three large floats stopped, and the preaching gradually stopped, leaving only Feng Xiao and Yu Sheng to play in Wanwan.
A green-shirted gentleman in the lead arched his hand towards Zhou Xuan and the three of them: "I wonder who will be in the top three of this year's poetry meeting with Oiran*?" β
Zhou Xuanxin said: "Wow, get straight to the point, good question, look at Xiahou tassel." β
Hu Yang on the side shouted impatiently: "Naturally, I am Hu Yang Hu Gongzi." β
There was a scholar who hid behind others and said coldly: "You are the third in the poetry club, I'm afraid you won't be qualified, go home and hug the concubine." β
The crowd of onlookers laughed, it seems that Hu Yang's popularity among the scholars in Xuanzhou is not good.
Hu Yang was annoyed and angry, and shouted: "Shikui is a woman, needless to say, Xuanzhi is a despicable salt merchant this week, is it up to him to go to Mingyulou?" β
"Shut up!" Zhou Xuan shouted, full of anger: "What's wrong with the businessmen, they also eat with their own skills, small profits and quick turnover, children are not bullied, communicate with each other, and facilitate the people, which is a hundred times stronger than you, who rely on the power of your father, who is not diligent and does not distinguish between grains, is about talent, and the poets and inkmen here are better than you if you pick any one, which round will get you to be noisy here?" β
Xuanzhou is rich in products, there are famous rice paper, the rest of Jingde three hemp, papaya and pear, Zhuge pen, red line carpet, and a variety of famous tea, Xuanzhou is the second largest tea distribution center in the Tang Kingdom after Shezhou. Every year in March and April, it is the time when the tea merchants gather, and the people who follow the float parade are mostly merchants except the scholars.
Someone said loudly: "Jiangzhou Hushang Abu, donate 50,000 taels of military funds, and the emperor personally gives Zheng Qipin Chaosanlang." Businessmen can also be officials, why do you look down on businessmen! β
"Yes, yes, why look down on us merchants?"
As soon as he called for it, the momentum was violent, as if he was going to beat Hu Yang, Xiahou Tassel was a little panicked, Zhou Xuan was too good at inciting people. This was not what she expected.
Hu Yang looked left and right. The servants were not there, so they couldn't be tough, and said: "I am willing to fight with Zhou Xuanzhi again, so that I can hug the beauty back, it's always fair, right?" β
Zhou Xuan glanced at Xiahou Tassel and thought: "This beauty is so moving, she can sing and play Konghou, and it is said that she can also do martial arts." It's a pity to kill it, wait for me to use my three-inch incorruptible tongue to see if I can make her abandon the darkness and turn to the light? He immediately said sharply: "Hu Yang, it's easy for someone in my Zhou to win you in a poem." But Miss Xiahou is a living person, she has her own emotions, not a puppet at the mercy of others, if you want to hold the beauty, first ask Miss Xiahou if she agrees? β
Really. Xiahou Tassel's long eyelashes flashed. It seems to be touched.
Those businessmen had the heart to help Zhou Xuan, and said with a smile: "Zhou Gongzi really pities the jade." It's not the kind of person who destroys flowers roughly, I'm afraid that Miss Xiahou has already secretly agreed. β
The green-shirted scholar said: "That's it, the title of the poem is up to us, and the rank is commented on by the Xiahou girl, how about it?" β
Hu Yang said in his heart: "The tassel girl has long been devoted to me, and if she evaluates the poetry, then I will win." said, "Okay, let's get the question." β
The green-shirted scholar said: "There is no restriction on poetry, nor is there any restriction on rhyme, just fill in a word for Xiahou girl, do you think such a poem title is good?" β
"Good!" Thousands of onlookers in Yuehufang watched a deafening applause.
Zhou Xuan began to fork his hands, and a small order came to his mind, and asked Hu Yang: "Master Hu, I have already obtained a "Dian Jiang Lip", do you chant first or I chant first?" β
Hu Yang was looking at Xiahou tassels to find inspiration, but he didn't expect Zhou Xuan to have a word, so he couldn't help but panic and said, "You come first." β
Zhou Xuan raised his hands and pressed down, and the noisy voice of Yuehufang was pressed to the ground by him, and he said:
"Kick off the swing and get up and straighten your hands. Lunon flowers are thin, thin sweat and light clothes. Seeing the guests coming, the socks slipped and walked away. Leaning on the door, but sniffing the green plums. β
The slanting sun is shining, the smoke and willows are picturesque, and the people in Yuehufang are crowded, but they are silent, and after a while, they burst into cheers:
"Thin sweat and light clothes, wonderful!"
"But smell the green plums, it's even better!"
"Could it be that Gongzi Zhou and Miss Xiahou are old acquaintances? Otherwise, how can you depict the demeanor of Miss Xiahou's daughter's family as if she is at present? β
Xiahou tassel's eyelashes flashed non-stop, Xiahou tassel is not only good at the art of attack, but also a talented woman who can be good at poetry and words, and understand the rhythm of music.
The father of Xiahou tassel is the family general of Chen Si'an, the family general is actually a high-ranking domestic slave who is reused, last year Xiahou tassel followed his father's order to follow Lianchang Gongzi to Xuanzhou, as a courtesan of Mingyufang, is a chess piece in the hands of Lianchang Gongzi, in fact, the entire Mingyufang is Lianchang Gongzi's people, Lianchang Gongzi's subordinates are involved in all walks of life, throughout the main states and counties of the Tang Kingdom, and play the role of careful spying.
Xiahou Tassel has both the perseverance of martial arts and the sentimentality of a talented woman, the assassination of Zhou Xuan was an order, and she has no grudge against Zhou Xuan, so when this smiling prey appeared in front of her, swaying poetry and suave appearance, Xiahou Tassel felt a little questioned: "Is this person I want to kill?" Why should I kill him? β
Someone is asking: "Master Hu, have you ever chanted poetry?" Don't delay time, it's getting dark, *it's short, hahaha. β
Hu Yang's face was swollen and red, and the more anxious he was, the more he couldn't think of poetry and sentences.
Xiahou tassel Yingying got up, picked a frangipani flower, the petals were pink and the stamens were pink and white, and walked in front of Zhou Xuan, his eyelashes drooping. Stretched out his hand to put the frangipani hairpin on Zhou Xuan's sideburns.
Lin Ning on the side stared at Xiahou Tassel's every move, once there was an abnormality, the projectile in her hand could take Xiahou Tassel's life at any time.
Zhou Xuan faced it calmly with a smile, and said in a low voice: "Miss Mengxiahou's blue eyes-"
Before the words came out, they were drowned out by the sky-shaking cheers: "The Oiran hairpin is flowering!" Oiran hairpin flowers! β
The Oiran hairpin flower means that the Oiran chose the person who crossed * with her, and this person is Zhou Xuanzhi, a salt merchant in Jinling.
Hu Yang was stunned for a long time. He didn't expect Xiahou tassel to give Zhou Xuan hairpin flowers, he was angry, rushed over and pushed Zhou Xuan violently, Zhou Xuan flashed lightly, Hu Yang couldn't help it, and fell off the float together with a few flower pots, and when he got up, the float was already moving. Go to the Sanqufang Mingyu Tower.
Hu Yang was furious. wanted to catch up with the float and climb up, but someone behind him grabbed the belt of his robe, and Hu Yang shouted: "Don't pull me, I'm going to beat that salt merchant to death-" looked back: "Hey, it's you!" β
grabbed Hu Yangdi, the little maid in Tsing Yi from Xiahou's tassel land, motioned for Hu Yang to follow her, and took the lead through the crowd to the side of the street.
Hu Yang knew that there was something good, so he hurriedly followed. At this time, the crowd of onlookers had already followed the float to Sanqufang, and in a moment, Yuehufang was empty.
The little maid in Tsing Yi said: "Master Hu, the tassel girl asked me to tell my son." Please go to Sanqufang Lingshi Garden at the end of tonight to meet, the tassel girl is forced to be helpless, so she spent the hairpin on the salt merchant, after all, Hu Gongzi didn't even chant half a line of poetry, but the tassel girl really fell in love with Hu Gongzi you. Does Hu Gongzi understand the meaning of the tassel girl asking you to meet? β
Hu Yang said repeatedly: "Understood." Understood, at the end of the day. Lingshiyuan, I will definitely come. β
The little maid in Tsing Yi said: "Master Hu, don't let down the tassel girl's infatuation!" Then he turned and walked away, and soon he was gone.
Hu Yang stood there and smiled stupidly, and said in his heart: "My son naturally understands the beauty of the tassel girl, that is, to take the lead and pick the oiran first, so that the salt merchant can appreciate the remnants of the flowers and willows, haha, hurry!" Hurry! β
The personal servants of the Hu Mansion came over at this time and shouted: "Son, why is your mouth swollen, wow, it's all bleeding!" β
Hu Yang fell off the float just now, fell into a dog and ate, and his upper lip was swollen thick, but now he was fascinated, he didn't feel a pain in his mouth, and he couldn't help but tilt his pig's mouth, and said: "Go home, my son wants to take a bath in Lan Tang, tonight - hehe, this son has to take some secret medicine in the house to strengthen his momentumββ"
After Hu Yang and his gang left, the three idiots walked out of a restaurant on the street, the hotel guys pulled out the horse, the three idiots rode up to Sanqufang, and soon caught up with the float, leaned over from the horse, and lowered his voice to Zhou Xuan: "Master, don't mess with flowers and grass, there are still big things to do on this trip, go to Quanzhou to see Chen Duhu is the secret decree of His Majesty the Emperor, and it is better to keep Taoguang and obscure along the way." β
Others couldn't hear clearly, but Lin Ning and Xiahou Tassel heard it, Lin Ning pursed his lips slightly, and said in his heart: "The master and the third brother are playing this set again, this is the same as the last time, in order to deal with me, they deliberately fought with people downstairs in Meixiang, pretending to accidentally fall out of the Falcon Gate five-pointed star card, it is completely an old trick, the purpose is to make Xiahou Tassel have doubts, and he will not immediately do it to the master, but the master can really expect it so accurately?" Xiahou tassel must be Lian Chang's son's person? β
Coming down from Lingyang Mountain before, Zhou Xuan secretly discussed with the three idiots, so that the three idiots could find an opportunity to mention the Qingyuan Protectorate, Zhou Xuan expected that Xiahou Tassel and Lian Chang Gongzi were accomplices, Lian Chang Gongzi was Li Kun's friend, Li Kun in order to obtain the support of the Qingyuan Protectorate, he definitely promised that once he ascended the throne, let the Qingyuan Protectorate stand on his own as a country and other such benefits, then Lian Chang Gongzi naturally had to do his best to clear the obstacles for Li Kun.
And Zhou Xuan let the three idiots show their mouths slightly, implying that Zhou Xuan went to Quanzhou to see Chen Si'an on the secret order of Li Yu, the emperor of the Tang Kingdom, and the prince of Lian Chang naturally had to find a way to know what the secret intention was? Before I figured it out, I wouldn't be in a hurry to ask for Zhou Xuan's life.
Zhou Xuan always has a way to make himself appear very useful, and he can't be killed.
looked at Xiahou tassel coldly, and sure enough, his eyelashes flickered, and he was restless.
At this time, the float was already approaching Sanqufang, and Lin Ning said: "Gongzi Zhou, I'll go back to the inn first, Sanqufang is not my place." β
Zhou Xuan said: "Mrs. Ning, please." β
Lin Ning got off the float and got into the carriage of the Xinzhou Houfu that had been following behind, and Lin Hanyun also sat on the carriage and asked, "Third sister-in-law, does Brother Zhou Xuan really want to go to Mingyulou?" β
Lin Ning said: "Second Miss don't worry, the master will not be in danger." β
Lin Hanyun's eyes widened: "I didn't mean danger, I mean Brother Zhou Xuan really wants to sleep with that Oiran Xiahou tassel for one night?" β
Lin Ning couldn't help laughing, and said: "Then I don't know, Xiahou tassel is both good-looking, just gave the master hairpin flowers, it is very affectionate, and the master is not Yanagi Hui-"
"Do you want to kiss it?" Lin Hanyun is most concerned about this.
Miss Lin Er was so bold that even Lin Ning, who had come over, was embarrassed by her question, and said, "This and this, I should be able to kiss it." β
Lin Hanyun said angrily: "It's really not like words, it's so unlikely, I'm going to pull him off the float!" β
Lin Ning hurriedly stopped: "Second Miss, don't be reckless, you are just a sister, not the master's wife, how can you take care of him?" β
Lin Hanyun felt uncomfortable when she thought that Zhou Xuan was going to kiss Xiahou Tassel, but she rejected Zhou Xuan's marriage proposal in the carriage yesterday, and she really couldn't care if Zhou Xuan couldn't go to the Qinglou, so she was in a hurry and said, "I'm not easy to manage, but my sister can manage it?" β
"Why?"
"Because my sister is going to marry Zhou Xuan!"
Lin Ning only knew that Lin Hanyun liked to follow Zhou Xuan** all day long, marrying Zhou Xuan sooner or later, but she didn't expect Miss Lin to marry Zhou Xuan, she couldn't help but be a little worried when she was surprised, and thought: "The master is so romantic, the third brother is familiar with it, but don't be affected by the master, didn't the second miss say that the third brother is squinting at the beauty without looking at it?" Alas, close to Zhu Chi, close to ink black, this is too unsettling, I have to be on guard. β
Lin Hanyun said confidently: "So, I want to take care of him for my sister." β
Lin Ning said: "Second Miss, don't spoil the master's big deal, the master went to Mingyulou to find out who is behind the scenes to assassinate him, you look at it well, you will soon arrest that Xiahou tassel, rest assured, with the third brother following the master, the master will not be in danger." Xin said: "As long as the master does not sleep with Xiahou tassel, there will be no danger." β
