Princess Nankang Sima Xingnan is the daughter of Emperor Sima Shao of the Jin Ming Dynasty, and Sima Yu, the king of Huiji, is the sister of a compatriot, so Huan Ji and Sima Daofu, the lord of Xin'an County, are married, it is no secret that the husband and wife are not harmonious, Princess Nankang has persuaded several times, but the two seem to have a grudge in their previous life, no matter what Princess Nankang says, the two of them can't listen to it, no matter how you look at it, they feel that the other party is not pleasing to the eye, and they are relatively speechless-

Huan Ji mainly felt that the lord of Xin'an had contemptuously said that he was a soldier, which was really insulting, and Sima Daofu dared to argue with her on the wedding night, so that he did not have sex with her, and he was ashamed to tell his mother that if he had relied on Huanji's temperament, he would have divorced this unvirtuous woman a long time ago-

Sima Daofu, the lord of Xin'an, Huan Ji is not in his eyes, the flesh mole on the left eyebrow of Huan Ji makes the lord of Xin'an feel disgusting, and he doesn't want to look at it at all, when the love first opened a few years ago, the lord of Xin'an heard that Wang Xi's youngest son Wang Xianzhi was both talented and beautiful, and the crown of the romance was for a while, and he secretly admired it in his heart, but unfortunately she had been engaged to Huan Ji there, and she hadn't seen Huan Ji there, I didn't know that Huan Ji was so disgusting, she hadn't seen Wang Xianzhi, just famous, but she saw Chen Caozhi, That day, I saw Chen Caozhi walking towards the slanting sun in the Yayan teahouse, Sima Daofu, the lord of Xin'an County, was simply stunned, it turned out that there is really such a beautiful man in the world, no wonder there will be thousands of empty alleys to see Wei Jue, if you can marry such a husband, wouldn't it be pleasing to the eye and happy for a lifetime! Then Sima Daofu saw Huan Ji, the contrast was too great, Sima Daofu was so angry, shouting not to marry, it was his father and mother who persuaded him, Sima Daofu also knew that it was not okay not to marry, so he had to marry, but he didn't want to see Chen Caozhi on the chrysanthemum platform in Xinting, but she had no chance to see the fairy-like beautiful man, life was really boring, and he said the earth-shattering words under the agitation of the mood - "You wait, I will marry you!" ”

If Huan Ji woman is replaced by another woman, then Princess Nankang can take out the majesty of the royal family and aunt, forcibly order her daughter-in-law to wait for her husband, copy Cai Zhongyun's "Women's Training" a hundred times a day, and then intimidate it with seven hearts, but Sima Daofu is both her daughter-in-law and her niece, of course she can't let her son Huan Ji take Sima Daofu, the aunt scolding her niece and the aunt scolding her daughter-in-law are completely different, Sima Daofu is not afraid at all, and she is coquettish and foolish to Princess Nankang, and Princess Nankang can't think about it, So this time, she came to reunite with her husband Junhuan Wen, so she brought Sima Daofu with her, and prepared to enter the capital to see her younger brother Sima Yu in a few days, so that Sima Yu and Concubine Xu could discipline and enlighten Daofu, so that the husband and wife could be reconciled-

Princess Nankang's seat is the largest and best ship of the Jingzhou Navy, with four layers up and down, three masts and five sails, which can carry more than 300 people, and three other ships escort all the way from Jingzhou.

At dusk, the sun will set, the sunset is like fire, reflecting the surging river water like the red silk Zhu Mian, the lord of Xin'an with a high uphead and wide sleeves is holding her aunt Princess Nankang to stand on the starboard side, looking at the rocky riverbank, the lord of Xin'an is full of joy, close to Jiankang, close to Jiankang, she doesn't want to stay in Jingzhou, she plucked Princess Nankang to live in her aunt for a long time after that, so that it is convenient for her to return to Jiankang, she said: "Aunt should put that Li Jingshu in Jingzhou, and aunt lives in aunt." ”

Nearly fifty years old, Princess Nankang's mane has been white, the bridge of the nose is high, the eye sockets are slightly sunken, and the young and beautiful Xin'an County Lord stands together like a mother and daughter, Princess Nankang listened to her niece Daofu said lightly, and said in her heart: "More than ten years ago, I have fallen out of favor, and it is rare to see Huan Fuzi for a whole month. 'Although it is a wide language, but who knows the sad place! said: "You don't have to worry about my aunt's affairs, I have a group of children, you, Daofu, when will you give birth to my grandchildren?" ”

Sima Daofu said "uh", and quickly changed the topic and said, "Auntie, look, there are so many people on the shore who picked us up." ”

Huan Bao came to the deck in the service of two servants, Huan Bao is fourteen years old this year, he is as short as eleven or two years old, and he is the most stupid in nature, he does not argue with the wheat, but his language is simple, Huan Wen and Princess Nankang pity his ignorance, and love him very much.

Although Huan is short, he is white and fat, and he looks very cute at first glance, but his eyes are persistent and dull, and he came over and asked, "Mother, have you arrived at Daddy's military mansion?" ”

Princess Nankang turned around, lovingly straightened the placket of her stupid son's clothes, and replied: "It's here, Bao'er, this place is called Guxiao, remember." ”

Huan Bao said with his mouth closed: "It's really weird, I was in Jingzhou two days ago, and today I will be my father's aunt, I really don't understand." ”

There are too many things that this stupid son can't understand, and he can't explain them to him, Princess Nankang said: "Wait until you see your father, you have to bow calmly, you know?" ”

Under the slanting light of the setting sun, the big ship slowly docked, Sima Daofu, the lord of Xin'an County, among the crowd who came to greet him, saw Chen Caozhi wearing a lacquered gauze crown and a white ramie summer shirt, floating out of the dust, dazzling, Sima Daofu suddenly couldn't take his eyes off, there were more than 100 people on the shore, Sima Daofu only had one person in his eyes, seeing Chen Caozhi getting closer and closer to her, his heart was so happy that he almost jumped out of his chest-

Sima Daofu knew about Chen Caozhi's entry into Xifu, and this time he naturally wanted to see Chen Caozhi, but he didn't expect Chen Caozhi to come to Jiangkou to greet him, and immediately had such an infatuation: "Chen Caozhi is here for me, he is to welcome me-"

The woman who fell into love is so delusional and unreasonable.

Chen Caozhi also saw Sima Daofu, the lord of Xin'an in a luxurious dress, and remembered the words of the lord of Xin'an in the mid-mountain pavilion of Chrysanthemum Terrace that day, and couldn't help but want to laugh, Wang Xianzhi was also on the pavilion that day, and heard what Sima Daofu said.

Princess Nankang is different from ordinary female dependents, she is the eldest princess of the royal family, Chen Caozhi naturally has to meet at the moment, and when Huan Xi introduced her to her mother, she said lightly: "The military government is a bureaucrat, Qian Tang Chen Caozhi." ”

Huan Shiqian added: "Chen Peng is talented and highly valued by his uncle. ”

Princess Nankang looked at Chen Caozhi with a smile and said: "Jiang Zuo Weiju, the name of Jingxiang, is really good, no wonder thousands of people want to see, the old woman entered Jiankang this time, and she also went to Waguan Temple to see the Buddha murals painted by Chen Peng and Gu Kaizhi, Jingxiang Shishu, every day there are people who go all the way to Waguan Temple to worship the Buddha, in order to see the murals of the Daxiong Treasure Hall of Waguan Temple. ”

Young girls and ladies are happy to see handsome men, and the same is true for older women, less admiration, more appreciation, more pure, Princess Nankang is a temperamental person, bluntly praised Chen Caozhi, Huan Xi listened to it on the side and was secretly annoyed, Xie Xuan once reminded Chen Caozhi that Huan Xi, the son of Huan Gong, Huan Xi Huan Bodao is narrow-minded, and he can't see others giving him handsomeness and talent, but he is humble on the surface, but in fact, he is jealous and jealous, and now, for some reason, Huan Xi's surface humility is gone, and his indifference to Chen Caozhi is obvious.

It's strange, the clumsy Huan Bao saw Li Jingshu but looked very happy, Li Jingshu took Huan Qi's hand to meet Princess Nankang, very affectionate and harmonious, Li Jingshu destroyed the country at the age of thirteen, and was taken as a concubine by Huan Wen at the age of fourteen, and gradually changed from a princess who was raised in the deep palace and didn't know the world, to a beautiful woman with a perverse temperament, fickle but good at observing faces, and scheming, she noticed Huan Xi's indifference to Chen Caozhi, and at the same time there was another amazing discovery: the county lord of Xin'an paid attention to Chen Caozhi from time to time, It seems to be obsessed in his eyes——

For a handsome and clean man like Chen Caozhi, anyone will take a few more looks, which is not unusual, but the sensitive Li Jingshu saw the strange expression of Sima Daofu, the county lord of Xin'an, and when he got on the horse, the county lord of Xin'an was still patrolling left and right, looking for Chen Caozhi's figure, Li Jingshu immediately thought: "Could it be that this Xin'an county lord has any personal relationship with Chen Caozhi?" Well, Chen Caozhi seems to be a gentleman, but even if there is no personal relationship between the two, at least this Sima Daofu is affectionate, I have heard that Sima Daofu and Huan Ji are not on good terms, or this is the reason. ”

Thinking like this, Li Jingshu was a little jealous and a little happy, and said in her heart: "I want to catch Chen Caozhi's handle, isn't this Xin'an County Lord the best bait, even if Chen Caozhi is clean and self-conscious, I will make him unreasonable, and he will be used by me in the end." ”

Chen Caozhi rode a horse and fell behind the convoy to avoid meeting with the county lord of Xin'an, the county lord of Xin'an is well-known in Jiankang, Chen Caozhi doesn't want to get into inexplicable trouble, Sima Daofu is no better than Li Jingshu, Li Jingshu is a concubine, has no status, Sima Daofu is the daughter of King Huiji, the daughter-in-law of Huan Wen, this scandal is not to be disturbed, and if it is not done, it will kill him.

In the afternoon of the next day, Chen Caozhi entered the general's mansion to teach Li Jingshu the recorder, first went to meet Huan Wen, after a while, Li Jingshu came to the front hall, Huan Yuan and Huan Wei brothers also followed, Huan Wei is Huan Wen's youngest son, two years older than Huan Yuan, slightly taller than the fourth brother Huan Yuan.

That Huan Bao obeyed his mother's precepts, every time he saw his father Huan Wen had to bow down, in fact, Princess Nankang just told him to make a big bow when he first saw him yesterday, Huan Bao firmly remembered, met on the road, kneeling in the mud he also kowtowed, although Huan Wen felt helpless, but he still loved this stupid son, Huan Wen was ambitious, but there were a lot of things to worry about, he had five sons, the stupid son did not need to say, the other four did not see the outstanding intelligence, it was difficult to follow the father's business, the Eastern Jin Dynasty, both heavy door, but also heavy character, of course, this character refers to the character in the door, When Yu Bing and the Langyi brothers were in power, when Langyi was dying, he thought that Yu Zhan was not worthy of the important position of Jingzhou Thorn History, and Ma Huan Wen took over the Jingzhou Thorn History, and Long Kanghuan replaced the position of Yingchuan Yu in Jingxiang-

Time has passed, and now it is Huan Wen's turn to consider what happened after his death, the prince Huan Xi is now engaged in Jingzhou Zhizhong and Yue Cavalry Captain, Liupin, because of his talent and reputation, Huan Wen can not be suddenly promoted, for fear of being criticized by public opinion, so Huan's current high position in addition to Huan Wen are Huan Wen's three younger brothers, Huan Huo, Huan Mi and Huan Chong, these three people are promoted in Huan Wen Dynasty Shu and two Northern Expeditions, Huan Huo Zhen Jingxiang, Huan Chong Zhenjiangzhou, and the three products in the leader Huan Mi mastered the palace guards, Huan Wen really wants to complete the great cause of replacing the Jin family as the emperor in his lifetime, and then choose a loyal and reliable virtuous minister to assist his son, but this kind of major event is not urgent, the power of the family is still strong, and the Huan family really controls only Jingxiang and Jiangzhou, Huan Wen must launch the third Northern Expedition, in order to establish a higher prestige, so last night Huan Wen also summoned the eldest son Huan Xi to talk secretly, and ordered Huan Xi and Chen Cao to be friends, Huan Wen intends to let Xi Chao and Chen Caozhi as the two major assistants of the future son Huan Xi, Huan Wen can be described as far-sighted and painstaking, but Huan Xi only claims to be true on the surface, but in his heart he doesn't think so-

In the side hall, a furnace of agarwood and blue smoke curls, and the brocade curtain covers it, and several cases are like.

Li Jingshu knelt upright on the seat, Huan Yuan and Huan Wei brothers sat next to Li Jingshu on the left and right, the two brothers were closer to Li Jingshu than Princess Nankang, with Li Jingshu's scheming, it was not easy to please others, let alone two boys.

Li Jingshu sat there with her upper body leaning forward slightly, looking humble, she combed a pretty fallen horse bun, a golden step shook and trembled, her eyebrows were like green feathers, her eyelashes were like crow's wings, her long flute was on her red lips, the purple flute tube reflected her white fingers, the slender jade fingers were stretched and pressed, and the elf was dancing in response to the season, Li Jingshu's consistent plain long skirt, wrapped in a slender body, lined with dark brocade curtains, was like a very beautiful picture of a lady, it should be from Tang Yin and Qiu Ying's pen-

Chen Caozhi knows that this Li Jingshu is angry, but Li Jingshu is indeed very beautiful, and those who don't know the beauty of Zidu have no eyes, Wei and Jin Dynasty individual life awakening, good at finding beauty in suffering, Li Jingshu is a stunning beauty in front of him, it is impossible to say that it is impossible to ignore it, Chen Caozhi did not deliberately avoid his gaze, calmly looked at Li Jingshu, looked at her lip shape and fingers to press the rhythm, listened to Li Jingshu intermittently blew a song "Changqing", pointed out some of her blowing methods and paid attention to the changes in lip shape, Li Jingshu tried to blow a few bass notes according to what Chen Caozhi said, but she was still hoarse and couldn't make a sound-

Li Jingshu requested: "I have never heard Master Chen play this "Changqing Song", I implore Master Chen to play a song for me to figure out and learn, okay?" ”

Chen Caozhi is a very serious person, since he promised to teach Li Jingshu the recorder, he will not be perfunctory when he teaches, and Li Jingshu begged so earnestly, refused to see hypocrisy, and responded: "Well, then please wait a moment, I will order someone to go back and get Ke Tingdi." ”

But I heard Li Jingshu say: "Master Chen, isn't it only your unique Keting flute that can play such high and low notes?" As he spoke, he took a silk handkerchief and carefully wiped the blowing holes of the purple bamboo flute in his hand, stared at Chen Caozhi with a pair of beautiful eyes, and then held the three-foot-three-inch long purple bamboo flute with both hands, lowering his head and lowering his eyebrows, meaning to ask Chen Caozhi to use this pipe flute to blow "Changqing Song".

Li Jingshu said it was not unreasonable, Chen Caozhi hesitated, nodded and said: "Then I'll give it a try, Xiangyang Cao Poyu is a famous flute maker, and the recorder he made should not be inferior to Ke Tingdi." ”

Li Jingshu raised her eyebrows, smiled, and looked very fast, stood up with her skirt in one hand and the purple bamboo flute in the other, walked lightly in front of Chen Caozhi, and respectfully presented the purple bamboo flute with both hands.

In the early autumn afternoon, the sun shone in obliquely through the gate, Li Jingshu saw her shadow pressing on Chen Caozhi's body, and Chen Caozhi saw Li Jingshu's thin Shu long skirt reflecting the sunlight and thus revealing the outline of her legs, plump and round, faintly hazy-

Chen Caozhi looked down at the long flute in his hand and said, "Please sit down." ”

Li Jingshu sat back on the seat, watching Chen Caozhi bring the purple bamboo flute to his lips, and couldn't help but feel "pounding" in his heart, it was rare to feel shy, and he heard a low sound of the flute coming out-

Chen Caozhi tried the flute sound and said: "The timbre is excellent, not inferior to Ke Tingdi, Ke Tingdi is only because it is left by Cai Zhonglang, and his reputation is great." After that, I played the "Changqing Song" again, the high note is clear, the low tone is like a turn, the song is wonderful, and it is breathtaking.

Li Jingshu said quietly: "I'm really ashamed, I went to the recorder together, but Master Chen played it so beautifully." ”

Huan Yuan grinned: "yes, I really can't figure it out, I almost fell asleep." ”

His brother Huan Wei corrected: "It's not that I want to sleep, but I can listen attentively." ”

Is it stubborn? Chen Caozhi smiled slightly, got up and said, "Then I will leave." With a flick, he turned and left.

Li Jingshu's graceful voice said in a low voice: "Thank you Master Chen for your advice." ”

When Chen Caozhi went out of the hall, he saw Huan Xi standing under the corridor of the hall, and he seemed to have been standing for a long time.

Chen Caozhi returned to the apartment at the foot of Phoenix Mountain, and Chan greeted him and asked, "Lang Jun, will you get up and go back to Jiankang tomorrow?" "Chan is going to go with her this time, so she is very lively and caring.

Chen Caozhi said: "I have to wait a few more days." ”

Chan asked again: "Lang Jun, shall we go back to Qian Tang during the Chinese New Year?" ”

Chen Caozhi said: "I really want to go back, but it depends on whether the Tu Duan Verification can end before the end of the year Sister Chan thinks about Chen Jiawu, even if I can't go back, Sister Chan can go back, Laizhen and Laide are all going back, and Liu Shangwei, he wants to go back to Qian Tang to pick up his family, and then you and Shangwei will go back together." ”

Chan shook her head and said, "We're all going back, who will serve Lang Jun!" If Lang Jun can't return to Qian Tang, then I will stay. ”

Chen Caozhi said with a smile: "It's still early for the New Year, let's talk about it then, I am really not used to living without Sister Chan." ”

Hearing this, Chan was so happy that she quickly turned around, pursed her lips, and smiled out of her heart.

……

On July 29, Sima Yu, the king of Huiji, sent someone to hand over the documents, officially appointing Chen Caozhi as the left supervisor of the Tuduan Division, Xie Xuan is the right supervisor, and the chief of the Wubing Shangshu Lu Shi Territorial Division, since the Han Dynasty, the right and the left, that is to say, although Chen Caozhi and Xie Xuan are both deputy positions of the Tuduan Division, but Xie Xuan is above Chen Caozhi, originally Chen Caozhi was a subordinate of the Tuduan Division, and Jia Bizhi, Xie Daoyun, and Liu Shangzhi were colleagues, and Lu Shi made a fuss, but he was promoted, you can imagine how angry Lu Shi was, but the Tuduan is a big matter, and Lu Shi does not want to give up presiding over the Tuduan Division, Sima Yu, the king of Huiji, was kind enough to soothe him, and Lu Shi had to endure it.

Huan Wen summoned Chen Caozhi, showed the documents to Dong Caozhi, and said: "Chen Peng will leave for the capital tomorrow, and Princess Nankang will also enter Taicheng to meet Xinjun, and Chen Peng will accompany him." ”

On the first morning of the first month of August, Chen Caozhi took Chan, Lai Zhen, Huang Tong, and two Chen's private soldiers to leave the Phoenix Mountain residence. ”

Laide said sullenly: "Langjun, Laide doesn't want to take Qingzhi here." ”

Chen Cao was stunned and asked, "Why?" ”

Laide said: "Lang Jun, Laide only wants to stay in Chenjiawu and cultivate the land with his father and brother, so that Laide will live very quickly." ”

Chen Caozhi was gloomy for a long time, and couldn't help but think of what Qin Xiang Li Si said to his son before he was executed - "I want to lead the yellow dog out of Cai Dongmen with Ruofu to chase the cunning rabbit, how can I get it?" He thought again: "Wei Rui's uncle Lu Ji also said, 'Huating crane, how can you hear it again?' 'I follow Huan Wen today, the future is unpredictable, don't end up in tragedy, then the Jiuyao Mountain cicada can't be heard again, isn't it sad! ”

Chen Caozhi said to Laide: "Okay, I promise you, when I return to Guyu after the end of the land, I will ask the engineer Cao to relieve you of your service, and you can go back to Chenjiawu." ”

Laide smiled honestly, and suddenly asked: "Lang Jun won't blame Laide for not knowing how to lift, right?" ”

Chen Caozhi smiled: "How come! It is true that being with your relatives is the fastest life in the world, and I will fulfill you when you come to Germany. ”

Ran Sheng led ten sergeants to arrive, and Chen Caoyi went to the General's Mansion to meet with Princess Nankang's convoy, only then did he learn that Princess Nankang was going to enter Beijing by water, in this case, Chen Caozhi's desire to date Lu Weirui in Xinting was frustrated, only to Jiankang and then find another way to meet, the eighth day of August is Lu Weirui's birthday, no matter what, I have to see her, since the last time we met, it has been 40 days apart, lovesickness is quite bitter-

It was Huan Xi who accompanied Princess Nankang into Beijing, and the lord of Xin'an also returned to Beijing to visit his father and mother, Chen Caozhi did not expect that Li Jingshu would also go to Jiankang, saying that it was an anniversary sacrifice for his brother Guiyi Marquis Li Shi.

When he got on the boat at the mouth of the river, Huan Xi arranged for Chen Caozhi and Ran Sheng to take the escort boat behind, Chen Caozhi was in the middle of it, he didn't want to be in the same boat with Li Jingshu and the county lord of Xin'an.

The county lord of Xin'an thought that he could see Chen Caozhi on the boat, but he didn't expect Chen Caozhi to be on the big ship, he couldn't help but be disappointed, sullen, and returned to the cabin to gossip with his aunt Princess Nankang, Li Jingshu also sat aside, the county lord of Xin'an was naturally jealous of her beautiful Li Jingshu, and didn't want to pay attention to Li Jingshu, but when she heard Li Jingshu talk about learning the recorder from Chen Caozhi, she felt even more uncomfortable.

Li Jingshu talked about Chen Caozhi and Lu Weirui again, saying that Chen Caozhi did not marry the Lu family's daughter, and how the Lu family's daughter did not marry Chen Caozhi, and then looked at the face of the Xin'an county lord, it was really even more ugly.

Princess Nankang listened with great interest, and said: "Chen Caozhi is really a rare beautiful man, and he is aging outstandingly, Huan Fuzi is high-spirited, and he rarely pushes it, but he praises Chen Caozhi and thinks that Chen Caozhi's intelligence is not under Xi Guest-It's a pity that my daughter is still young, and she is only ten years old this year, otherwise I will marry his daughter to him, find an opportunity to ask him, if he is willing to wait, five years later, let him be my son-in-law, well, let Xi Guest ask him when he arrives in Beijing——"

The face of the lord of Xin'an County turned white.
