The seventeenth day of the month is a rest day for chess battles, and it will be like this in the future, don't talk about Gu Liuquan if you have a two-day rest, even Zhou Xuan felt that the game of chess last night was quite tiring.

After winning Shi Jiezhi, who ranked tenth among the eighteen major chess players, Zhou Xuan can be said to be famous in a fight, and the other nine chess players in the capital have begun to study Zhou Xuan's chess, even Huang Xingjian, who ranked fourth, Wu Weinan, who ranked seventh, Chen Xingyuan, who ranked eighth, and Lai Xiushan, who ranked ninth, these big chess players began to pay attention to this Zhou Xuan of the Fenghua Army.

This morning, Zhou Xuanhe and the three idiots and the four idiots played chess for a while, and suddenly remembered that Lin Hanyun hadn't shown up for the past two days, and felt strange, could it be that he was sick? I went to the "Yangchun Baixue Hall" where the Lin sisters lived.

In the small courtyard, I saw Mingfeng and Jianyue collecting snow on plum blossoms, which must have been used to make tea, and asked Lin Hanyun, these two maids were hesitant and said, "Zhou Gongzi, my fairy is inside, you go and ask the fairy." ”

Zhou Xuan felt strange, walked to the wing where Fairy Jingyi lived, opened the bead curtain and went in, he didn't need to report anything now, sister and brother, you can do it casually.

Fairy Jingyi is practicing calligraphy on the case in front of the window, this is everyone's daily class, she, a female Taoist priest, now recites less Taoist scriptures, and does not meditate, and has resumed the habit of girlhood.

What Zhou Xuan saw was a pretty face like a bright spring flower, and his flushed cheeks were extremely delicate.

Fairy Jingyi didn't wear a veil!

Zhou Xuan was stunned, he had seen the true face of Fairy Jingyi under the lamp that day, but the light was dim after all, and he could see it in detail under the warm sunlight like now. I feel that Sister Daoyun's authentic name is wrong, she should not be called Jingyi Fairy, but should be called Peach Blossom Fairy, this kind of white and red face is really moving.

When Fairy Jingyi saw Zhou Xuan break up, she hurriedly put down her pen, put on her hat, and put down her veil, and then she shouted: "Brother Xuan—"

Zhou Xuan smiled and asked, "Is my sister going out?" Let the younger brother accompany the sister, right? ”

Fairy Jingyi was stunned: "Why did the female Dao say that she wanted to go out?" ”

Zhou Xuan said: "I don't go out. Why does my sister wear a hat and cover indoors? ”

Fairy Jingyi didn't answer. Asked: "Is there anything wrong with Brother Xuan?" How good are these two days of chess battles? ”

Zhou Xuan knew that he still couldn't convince Fairy Jingyi not to wear a veil for a while, so he had to find another way in the future, saying: "Two battles and two wins, truce today, come to play with Sister Hanyun, what about Sister Hanyun?" ”

Fairy Jingyi said: "Hanyun is a little unwell, sleeping in bed." ”

Zhou Xuan was shocked: "They are all sleeping in bed." Wouldn't that be a serious illness! With Hanyun's sister's out-of-the-beaten-hearted nature, if she is not very uncomfortable, how can she lie down, take me to see her. ”

I heard Lin Hanyun's voice from inside: "Brother Zhou Xuan, I'm here." The voice was very weak, and I couldn't believe it was Lin Hanyun's voice.

Zhou Xuan was about to go in, and suddenly realized that it was a bedroom, although she was very close to her sister. But it still doesn't seem appropriate to enter the bedroom without permission. Stopped and looked at Fairy Jingyi.

Fairy Jingyi said secretly: "Although Brother Xuan is informal, he still knows etiquette. He got up and walked to the inner room and said to Zhou Xuan, "Brother Xuan." Come on in. ”

Zhou Xuan entered the inner room, only to see Lin Hanyun hugging the brocade quilt with a white face, leaning crookedly on the embroidered couch, the house was burning with warm incense, and the brazier was burning vigorously.

When Lin Hanyun saw Zhou Xuan, he said with tears in his eyes: "Brother Zhou Xuan, I am sick, very sick, probably going to die." ”

Fairy Jingyi said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, didn't my sister tell you, you are not sick, that's-" glanced at Zhou Xuan and stopped talking.

Who is Zhou Xuan, looking at the two sisters talking ambiguously, and suddenly understood, isn't the sheep a little stomachache!

Zhou Xuan smiled bitterly, it turned out that Miss Lin Er, who was already sixteen years old this year, is only now coming to menarche, and the medical book says that the woman's fourteen kidney qi is flourishing, and the geranium is even, this Miss Lin Er is too late to give birth!

Fairy Jingyi looked at Zhou Xuan's smiling appearance, just now she was worried that Hanyun's sister was seriously ill, but now she has no voice, and she is not in a hurry to find a doctor, Fairy Jingyi understands that Zhou Xuan guessed what happened, and can't help but be ashamed, even if it is a father and brother, this matter cannot be said, but let Zhou Xuan know, this is too embarrassing!

Lin Hanyun saw that Zhou Xuan didn't speak, so she thought that she was really sick and couldn't be saved, and what her sister said yesterday was to coax her and comfort her, and she couldn't help crying.

Fairy Jingyi hurriedly sat on the edge of the bed and half-hugged her to comfort her, but Lin Hanyun didn't listen and cried: "Brother Zhou Xuan, I don't want to die, you quickly write a letter to ask Qin Que's sister-in-law to save me, her medical skills are good, and she is a female doctor." ”

Zhou Xuan finally couldn't help it, laughed, waved at Lin Hanyun on the bed, and said, "Foolish brother, congratulations to Sister Hanyun for growing up." ”

Lin Hanyun opened a pair of big teary eyes and asked, "Brother Zhou Xuan, what are you talking about?" ”

Zhou Xuan can no more

It's too ambiguous, so I turned around and walked out of the inner room, and said outside: "Sister Daoyun, everything that should be said should be said to Sister Hanyun, she is now an adult." ”

The Jingyi Fairy in the inner room only felt that her cheeks were like fire, and she was so hot that she was about to burn her veil, this Xuan brother was too outspoken!

Zhou Xuan came out of the "Yangchun Baixue Hall", secretly having fun all the way, and thought that Lin Hanyun's mother died when she was five years old, in fact, it was quite pitiful, originally it was best for a mother to explain these things to her daughter, Jingyi Fairy, the eldest sister, is a yellow flower girl, some words can't be spoken, pitiful, really pitiful, do you want me, Brother Zhou Xuan, to give her a physiological hygiene lesson?

As soon as Zhou Xuan arrived downstairs at his residence, Laifu came in a hurry and shouted, "Uncle, uncle, who do you see coming?" ”

Zhou Xuan turned his head to look, only to see three young men with brocade hats and mink fur striding over, and he was immediately overjoyed and shouted: "Chen Ji, Sun Zhan, Sun Sheng, three good brothers, you are finally here!" "Ran over and hugged them one by one.

The four of them came to the downstairs living room to sit down, asked about the itinerary, Chen Ji and the Sun brothers set off from Hongzhou on the eighth day of the first month, and they also took a boat, ten days on the road, and arrived this morning, first to meet their uncle Chen in Qingxifang, Chen praised Chen Ji in person for making a friend, Chen Ji was overjoyed, and he couldn't wait for lunch and rushed to Mochou Lake.

Zhou Xuan immediately ordered the kitchen to put on a banquet, invited Judge Fan and Lin Heishan to accompany him, and the three idiots and four idiot brothers sat down together.

During the banquet, when talking about the conflict with King Jing, seeing Emperor Li, and defeating Shi Jieshan in the Lantern Festival chess battle, Chen Ji and the Sun brothers listened to it with flying eyebrows and toasted again and again.

The more people drank, the more energetic they became, Chen Ji said: "Brother Zhou, there are thousands of lights on the Qinhuai River, the water and the moon are glazed, the painting boat is like a shuttle, and the courtesans are like clouds, why don't we go and rent a boat on the river and watch *** while drinking, wouldn't it be happy!" ”

Zhou Xuan remembered that the crown prince Li Jian said that he would invite him to visit Qinhuai tonight, but Chen Ji and the prince were not familiar with each other, and they would definitely be restrained and could not enjoy themselves, so he immediately said to Judge Fan: "Lord Fan, if His Royal Highness the Prince comes to me, please tell him on my behalf, and I will go to Qinhuai with my friend from Hongzhou, and I will report to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince tomorrow." ”

Judge Fan was naturally Weiwei, and said in his heart: "Only you, Gongzi Zhou, dared to say such a thing, and let the prince wait, and you went with your friends by yourself." ”

Zhou Xuan, Lin Heishan, Three Idiots, Four Idiots, Gu Changshi, Chen Ji, Sun Zhan, Sun Sheng, as well as Laifu and two other government officials, a total of eleven people, took a car to the bank of the Qinhuai River.

Gu Changshi has been stationed in Jinling for a long time, and he is very familiar with everything, and after a while, he found a four-zhang painting boat with twelve boatmen.

Everyone got on the boat, and the prepared banquet was handed to the painting workshop, and the Sun brothers suddenly shouted: "How can such a beautiful scenery be without the singing voice and musical instruments of the little girl?" Hurry up and send someone to pick her up. ”

Zhou Xuan said: "This and this, Xiaofeng is a little unwell. ”

Chen Ji said with a smile: "Cousin Zhan, cousin Sheng, you two are too uninteresting, Miss Xiaofeng is now Brother Zhou's forbidden prostitution, how can you persuade alcohol and serve guests like ordinary prostitutes." ”

Twelve boatmen rowed the oars, the painting boat slowly sailed in the upper reaches of the Qinhuai River, at this time it was already the end of the Shen Dynasty, the weather in early spring, the twilight also fell quickly, only to see the green mist on the river, the gold powder buildings on both sides, the rows of rows, the painting boat Lingbo, the sound of oars and the shadow of the lights, the fat powder river of the ancient capital of the six dynasties is as beautiful as a dream.

Everyone drank wine for a while, saw that the twilight was thicker and heavier, the flowing water was as heavy as ink, the night was dark and bright, and all kinds of different shapes, seven colors of dazzling lanterns were like beads like a string of beads all over the ten miles of Qinhuai, at this time, if you look at it from the sky, it is a flowing river of lanterns, where is the Milky Way so bright!

The boat that Zhou Xuan and they took was also full of colorful lanterns, lit up at night, like a fairy treasure boat, but unfortunately there was no female music to play, which was not lively enough.

Gu Changshi said: "Okay, there are a lot of prostitutes on the river, and when you meet a few of them, you can come up and drink with them." ”

As he was talking, a painting boat song blew towards him, and a female singer sang ethereally:

"On New Year's Eve last year, the flower market was lit up like daylight. The moon arrives at the head of the willow tops, and people are about after dusk. On New Year's Eve this year, the moon and lights are still the same. I didn't see last year's people, and I was full of tears. ”

Zhou Xuan was taken aback, this word was copied to Rui Chu by him last year, and the sound of this singing is also a bit like Rui Chu, could it be that Rui Chu also arrived in Jinling? I was about to call the painting boat closer, but I heard someone on the other boat cheering: "Good singing, come quickly, my son has chartered your boat tonight." ”

Zhou Xuan only felt that this man's voice was a little familiar, but Chen Ji's face changed, and he said, "Isn't this Wei Jue's voice!" ”
