Chapter 14 Whose Jasper Flute 3
After waiting for a while, Yingxian was ushered into the westernmost bedroom on the fourth floor of the Rose Fragrance Temple by a young girl. As soon as I opened the door, a strong and intoxicating aroma came to my nose. The eye is crimson: red floors, red coat boxes, and red desks, as if brushed with layers of rouge. A row of four beautiful glass screens is located in front of the screen, a large rosewood table and two blue-glazed brown porcelain stools. A pastel porcelain vase stood on the table, and seven or eight red and yellow roses were inserted in it. A three-color lotus candlestick, a red candle with the thickness of a baby's arm is burning vigorously. A set of quaint and delicate purple sand tea sets was placed on the mahogany table by the window, and a delicate and small incense burner was placed a little away. Bypassing the screen, you will see a spacious yellow pear shelf bed. Through the pink tent, it can be seen that a pair of cross-necked mandarin ducks are embroidered on the golden and red satin quilt on the bed, which adds to the charm of the imagination.
This room must be a premium private room. Yingxian thought as she walked back to the table from the bed, sat down and waited patiently, and after a while, she heard the voice of the bustard outside the door: "Come in, girls." The bead curtain sounded, and several women rushed in together, stunned.
The six beautiful women in front of him were sixteen or seventeen years old, and the oldest was only twenty-three or fourteen. Wearing a tulle skirt of different colors, she put on new makeup and was slim. This is like the first day of hibiscus, Shao Xiu Mingli; That is like a rainbow after the rain, and Yanye is confused. This is Feiyan Yiren, Shi Lu is shy, and that is Concubine Ming hugging the pa, if she hides her grievances. This one is like a famous flower drunk dew, and that one is like a clear moon and a forest - each has its own bright colors, each has its own wonderful state. After the fluttering gauze skirt, the fragrant skin and jade skin loomed, which was extremely sultry.
The old bustard smiled and said, "These six girls are all among the twelve hairpins in our Rose Fragrance Academy. It just so happened that I hadn't picked up any customers today, so Childe took a look at it and asked her to stay. β
Ying Xian's gaze lingered on the faces of the women for a while, and asked, "What kind of talent do you know?"
The old bustard said "ouch": "Look at what the son said, the twelve hairpins of our Rose Fragrance Courtyard are all talented women." Singing and dancing, playing the piano and chanting poetry, pen and ink, there is nothing that can't. β
Yingxian said, "Okay, okay. Beautiful, beautiful. Suddenly, he smiled, took out a silk bag from his bosom, handed it to the bustard, and asked, "Do you think this thing can let me see your Oiran?" β
The old bustard took the silk bag and opened it to see that it was a crystal clear jade bracelet. The old bustard looked at it in the candlelight, grinned in surprise, and turned back and said, "Yes, yes." I'll call Childe now. With a wave of his hand, the six women came out again, and one of them walked to the door and turned around. Yingxian smiled in return. The old bustard also followed three steps and walked out in two steps.
Yingxian looked at the east and west of the room alone, and there was no movement for a long time. When he was bored, he reached out and played with the flowers in the bottle. I don't want the rose to flutter and drop a few petals when I touch it. At this moment, the beaded curtain was lifted, and a graceful woman walked into the room.
Yingxian looked straight at her, and saw her: the clouds are the skirt, the bright moon is the curtain, the eyes are condensed in the autumn water, and the spring pears are blooming. The bun is loose and loose, and the lead is lightly made up. Luo sleeves are slightly flicked, moving the fragrance of ten miles of hibiscus, and the lotus step moves lightly, sounding the sound of gold and jade in all directions.
What a beauty! Yingxian cheered in his heart. Remembering his identity this time, he beckoned her to sit down. The beauty sat down close to Yingxian generously, and smiled: "Childe has been waiting for a long time." The voice was soft and curling, like a willow wind blowing in the forest in March spring.
Yingxian asked, "What do you call the girl?" β
"A cheap name is not enough. If Childe doesn't dislike it, let me dream away. β
"Dream Away...... Dream of ...... Sure enough, I can only see it in a dream. Good name. β
"Where's Childe?"
"Well, my surname is Shang."
Mengli said: "I heard my mother say that Shang Gongzi made a generous move, just to see me." I thought I had to be a little older, but I didn't expect it to be a young man...... is still such a good-looking son. Ying Ying's eyes swirled around Yingxian's face and said with a smile.
Ying Xian's heart twitched, and secretly thought: This dream is young, I'm afraid it's not as sharp as the old bustard, but don't let her recognize me as a woman and a man. Then he said in a thick voice: "I heard that Miss Mengli is the Oiran of Meixiang Temple, and I am fortunate to see it today, and it really deserves its reputation." β
Mengli smiled lightly: "What an Oiran is not an Oiran is, it's just an eye-catching gimmick." Give it to me today, and maybe someone else tomorrow. β
Yingxian saw that she was young and jade, and she couldn't help but sigh secretly, and asked, "Are you selling your art or not selling your body?" β
"If you go back to Gongzi, yes."
"That'...... What talents do you have? For example, what kind of musical instrument will you know? β
Mengli said: "Qin, flute and pipa, which one does Shang Gongzi like to listen to?" β
Ying Xian praised it, thought for a while, and said: "The guqin is suitable for playing by itself when meditating, and the pipa is inevitably too noisy." Or the flute is most suitable. β
Mengli seemed to have expected it, smiled and took out a jasper flute from his arms, glanced at Yingxian tacitly, and put the flute to his lips and blew it.
The high and low are combined, the length is successive, and the emptiness of the high sky and the dilution of the white water moss stone escape.
The sound of the flute is faint. It's like early spring. In front of you, a long causeway built around the lake and planted with willows appeared. Looking at the willows in the sunny light, the willow leaves are hanging low, green as jade, and the purple swallows are flying in the light sun, stirring a of spring; The wind comes to see the willows, the wicker is silky, and the flying place is like a young girl dancing and practicing, and it is fragrant when it is still; And looking at the willows in the rain, the willows are covered by the rain, and the flowers are gone, only the remaining halal. The lake is vast, the water is swallowed, and the clouds, water, and willows are blended together, and even the most brilliant painters are difficult to describe one or two.
The sound of the flute turned low. Yingxian then walked into a deep jungle. Overhead, the shade of the trees was cascading, and the moonlight poured over the skylight like water, sprinkling frost all over the ground. Wild bamboos are formed, and the secluded springs and cold worms are accompanied by the midnight wind to play a different kind of natural sound. And the delicate and round autumn moon in the night sky, compared with the misty fog on the mountain in the early morning, has more of an indefinite mystery, triggering the most secret microfiber in the soul......
When I meet you, Yang Liuqing is green, and when you don't say goodbye to me, the moon is bright. There is a song at the end of the world, and the wind and rain tell the love.
The sound of the flute stopped.
Ying Xian couldn't help but applaud while being intoxicated. Mengli said: "It's ugly." β
"The girl's flute skills are so exquisite, presumably the piano and pipa are also first-class. So what else would you do besides musical instruments? β
"I can just draw a few pictures and write a few poems."
Yingxian sighed: "Miss Mengli is really talented and beautiful. I just don't know...... I don't know how you got into this Rose Fragrance Temple? β
Mengli didn't hide it: "My parents died early, and I was sold here by my uncle at the age of thirteen. I've been living here for five years. β
"In the past five years, have you encountered anything...... What is in love with your guests and willing to ransom you? β
Mengli smiled faintly, but there was a hint of desolation in his voice: "How many men who come to this kind of place are reliable?" It's not that the one at home is disgusted with this or that, so he came to change it for freshness and find excitement. How can you be sincere? Why should I think like that? β
Yingxian said: "But girl, you are different." You're not just playing on the spot. β
Mengli suddenly giggledβand his scalp tingled with laughterβand asked, "Master Shang thinks I'm not acting on the spot?" β
Ying Xian was speechless for a while, and said: "I just heard a true feeling from your flute sound." β
Mengli was silent for a while, and said in a low voice: "Childe is really an elegant person. β
"So it seems...... Miss Mengli once met her bosom friend. It's just that for various reasons, you can't be together, so you have to look at each other across the river, right? Yingxian asked as she stared into Mengli's eyes.
Mengli muttered: "All kinds of reasons, all kinds of reasons. Hehe, what's the matter! β
Yingxian stretched out her fingers and casually fiddled with the roses: "Yes." There are naturally all kinds of dignitaries and nobles living in this capital, and they will come to this Rose Fragrance Courtyard to find happiness when they are idle today, and they will forget you when they are busy tomorrow, what can you do? β
Mengli said: "Childe is too worried. Dignitaries and nobles, I have always only coped with it, how can I pay sincerely. β
For some reason, a trace of disappointment swept through Yingxian's heart and said, "Oh, yes? I thought your bosom friend must be some kind of nobleman and celebrity. β
"In my eyes, there is no distinction between high and low. Again...... Those adults, how can they understand the suffering of our generation? β
Ying Xian let out a sigh. I thought: It seems...... I guessed wrong. Hehe, Shang Yingxian, Shang Yingxian, you are really suspicious. At the moment, I relaxed my heart and talked with Mengli like an old friend. In the candlelight, I saw Mengli frowning lightly, and his face seemed to be happy rather than happy, as if he was sad rather than sad, as if he had fallen into a memory.
I was shocked to find that it was dark outside the window. Yingxian got up and said, "It's late today, thank you girl for your face." I'll come back to see the girl another day. β
Mengli also stood up and bowed with Xiao Yingying: "Mengli thanks to Master Shang." β
Yingxian's eyes moved to the turquoise and crystal jade flute, and couldn't help but say, "What a beautiful jade flute." It's a rarity. β
Mengli lowered her eyelashes: "Actually, this jade flute is not my own." β
"Whose is that?"
"It was left by another girl in the Rose Fragrance Courtyard. To tell you the truth, the tune I played just now was also written by her. β
Yingxian was very surprised: "Which girl?" What is your name? β
"Her name is Feng Yi...... It's Yumeli's best friend in the Rose Fragrance Temple.γ β
"No wonder...... Since it's a girl's best friend, I think it's a beautiful woman like you. β
Mengli shook his head: "That's not right. β
"Isn't that right?"
"Whether it's her appearance or talent, I can't compare to her."
Yingxian said in surprise: "I thought that Miss Mengli was the Oiran in the Rose Fragrance Courtyard......"
"As I said, this Oiran is just a name. Some people are willing to take it, and some people are not willing to take it. That Sister Fengyi is really a peerless beauty hiding in the Rose Fragrance Courtyard. β
Ying Xian was surprised, but she couldn't help but yearn for it, and blurted out: "I must meet this Fengyi girl today." β
Mengli shook his head again: "You can't see her anymore." β
"Why?"
"A year ago, it was also the Dragon Boat Festival, and she ...... She ......"
"What's wrong with her?"
Mengli didn't speak. Moved to the window, pushed open the carved window, looked at the river gold flow downstairs, and the sorrow gradually pressed on the tip of his eyebrows. After a long time, she lightly opened her lips and said quietly: "She jumped into this Muyang River and went to be accompanied by the river god." β
