"One is Langyuan Immortal, and the other is beautiful and flawless. If you say that there is no fate, you will meet him again in this life; If it is said that there is a strange fate, how can the mind end up empty? ”

On the high stage, with Chen Yuanyuan's mournful and low guqin accompaniment, Dong Xiaowan had tears in her eyes and sang affectionately.

After singing only one sentence, the guests immediately stopped their suspicion of Zhu Youzhen and the two famous prostitutes, and opened their mouths wide one by one, listening to this heavenly sound in amazement.

"One is in vain, and the other is worried. One is the moon in the water, and the other is the flower in the mirror. Think about how many tears can be in your eyes, how can you not help but flow from autumn to winter, and spring to summer! ”

Dong Xiaowan on the stage closed her eyes, letting tears flow wantonly on her face, as if she had merged with this song. And Chen Yuanyuan, who accompanied the accompaniment, tears also seemed to be broken threads, dripping on the strings from time to time, making a crisp sound.

More than 1,000 listeners in the audience were deeply moved by this melancholy and infinitely emotional tune. And those with shallow eye sockets, from this song think of the time when they were young and frivolous, they also spent time with the girl next door, and made a private agreement for life; How can the fate of parents be disobeyed, and it is difficult for lovers to become dependents, so they can only regret it for life. These feelings are usually only deeply hidden, but today, inadvertently, they were inadvertently aroused by this short cross tune from my heart in an instant, and it is impossible to suppress it, and I can't help but burst into tears.

Especially the four sisters Bao Yulian and Mei Lan Zhuju, they and Dong Xiaowan and Chen Yuanyuan on the stage were also fallen people at the end of the world, and they can empathize with the infatuation in the song performed by the two. Although they were in the audience, they felt that this song was composed for themselves, and the song was from the bottom of their hearts!

"Ah~~~~~~~~~~~~~" Dong Xiaowan sighed three times, sang the song "Vain Eyebrows", and then could no longer hold herself, cried bitterly on the spot, ignored the guests, turned around and ran backstage.

At this time, the sound of crying in the audience also rang out, and some people beat their chests and cried. Only Mao Xiang's face was like ashes, standing on the spot, nervously muttering: "The moon in the water, the flower in the mirror, the moon in the water, the flower in the mirror..."

Suddenly, the applause rang out, but it never stopped.

Chen Yuanyuan on the stage was attentive and was looking for Zhu Youzhen, who taught him this song, but he couldn't find him anyway, and even his entourage seemed to disappear into the air. She looked at the seat where Zhu Youzhen was sitting just now, and couldn't help but say to herself: "Who is he and where does he come from?" How could he write such a song? ”

At this time, Zhu Youzhen didn't want to play any mystery, but after a day and night, the poison on his body attacked again, and he had to hurry back to the inn to let Bao Yulian pass the golden needle again.

When he woke up the next day, Zhu Youzhen stretched his long waist, recalled what happened last night, and couldn't help but laugh dumbly. He was forced to be cornered, and even used the theme song in the 87th version of the TV series "Dream of Red Mansions" to make up the numbers. Although the song shocked the audience, it always felt not very glorious.

But he also found that since last night, the eyes of Bao Yulian and the four sisters have completely changed when they look at them, neither the fear and humility of the slave and maid to their masters, nor the rebellion and indifference they once had, but full of worship and love, as if they had become their dream lovers.

Zhu Youzhen was embarrassed in his heart, and at the same time thought sadly, if it weren't for this "Vain Eyebrows", he would be just a high-ranking prince in their minds; If they are not even princes, then what about their hearts? It's not good, it's not even like!

While pondering and eating breakfast indiscriminately, Lin Youkun suddenly came in to report: "Son-in-law, the girl surnamed Chen came to see you last night. But she said that it was inconvenient to show up at the inn, and she wanted to invite her son to her car. ”

What is Chen Yuanyuan looking for me? Could it be that she was so moved by this song that she wanted to make a promise? Isn't history about to stage a great reversal? Zhu Youzhen thought so in his heart, and said busily: "Come right away, come right away!" ”

Seeing that this product had returned to normal, Bao Yulian and the four sisters had a black line, and finally had to painfully understand that with his realm, not a single word or note of that piece could be written by him.

At this time, the sky was just beginning to lighten, and there were not many pedestrians coming and going on the street. Zhu Youzhen got into the carriage parked outside the inn, and sure enough, he saw Chen Yuanyuan sitting in the car. At this time, she was not as heavy as she was on stage last night, but only a little powder, but more pure and feminine.

Chen Yuanyuan saw Zhu You getting into the car, and said with a smile: "You Gongzi is early." ”

"Ahh Early, early, Miss Chen! Zhu Youzhen greedily admired Chen Yuanyuan like dementia, and it took a while to come back to his senses and replied embarrassedly.

When Chen Yuanyuan saw it, he smiled again before saying: "The slave family took the liberty to come, and I hope that the son will not be surprised." ”

"No strange, no strange, hey, hey, hey, hey!" Zhu Youzhen smiled innocently.

"The slave family came to Tongzhou for the first time and wanted to have a visit. I heard that there is a lantern Buddha relics pagoda on the bank of the canal, which is a scenic spot in Tongzhou, I wonder if the son can have time to accompany the slave family to take a walk? Chen Yuanyuan asked a little shyly.

"Okay, I'll ask the housekeeper to prepare the car immediately..."Zhu Youzhen just said, but Chen Yuanyuan said slyly: "Son, don't take anyone else, just take the slave's car." ”

"This..."Zhu Youzhen was speechless for a while. Of course, he is willing to ride in the same car with Chen Yuanyuan, but I am afraid that Lin Youkun will never agree.

"Okay, the slave family is joking with the child. If the slave family's guess is correct, the four twin girls who were at the same table with Gongzi yesterday should be your maids; And the other young lady has a noble temperament and is very nervous about your every move, but is the concubine of the son? Gongzi must have a deep affection for them, and even when he goes to a place like Qinglou, he still takes them with him. How dare the slave family be alone with the son and make your beautiful relatives angry? ”

Zhu Youzhen listened to Chen Yuanyuan's slightly joking speculation, so he had to smirk, and secretly screamed ashamed in his heart. In fact, he wants to see one and love the other, and push down all the beauties in the world. It's a pity that the body is highly poisonous, and the heart is more than enough but not enough.

While talking, the four sisters rushed out of the inn with Bao Yulian in their arms, and said with a smile: "Miss Chen, the four of us are all You Gongzi's maidservants. If you want to invite our son on a trip, let us also touch the light of our son and take us with you! We have heard your name for a long time, and we only hate not to have a chance to meet you! ”

Zhu Youzhen smiled bitterly, daring to love these people are also fans of Chen Yuanyuan.

Chen Yuanyuan smiled and said: "Several sisters have this Yaxing, and the slave family dares to disobey their orders?" This young lady..."

Without waiting for her to ask, Bao Yulian hurriedly explained shyly: "I am just You Gongzi's doctor, not his family. ”

Chen Yuanyuan hurriedly asked with concern, "Oh? It turned out that You Gongzi had a disease, but he didn't know what kind of disease it was? Is there a big deal? ”

Zhu Youzhen's old face turned red suddenly, and Bao Yulian hurriedly covered it up for him: "It's just an old disease with some phlegm and asthma, so it's okay." ”

In the end, Zhu Youzhen, Bao Yulian, and the four sisters all squeezed into the carriage that Chen Yuanyuan was riding, and Lin Youkun rode alone to accompany him.

As the saying goes, three women in one play. On this way, the warblers in the carriage whispered, and several women chatted very happily at first sight, but they put Zhu Youzhen aside, which made him very embarrassed, as if he was eavesdropping on the sleeping meeting in the girls' dormitory.

At this time, the sun gradually climbed higher and higher, and Tongzhou City finally woke up from the bitter cold of the night. On both sides of the canal that runs through the city are two wide streets, and on the other side of the street, there are various shops, large and small. At this time, these shops have opened, and the streets are gradually filled with more cars and pedestrians, and a new busy day has begun.

The carriage and horses traveled along the canal all the way north, stopping at a high tower in a short time. Everyone got out of the car one after another, and the passers-by who passed by here saw a group of beautiful women like fairies, supporting Zhu Youzhen to get out of the car like stars holding the moon, and they were all envious.

Zhu Youzhen got out of the car and looked up and saw a majestic pagoda standing in front of him. The body of the tower is octagonal, a total of thirteen layers, there are exquisite relief Buddha statues on the masonry of each layer, all carved vividly. There are thousands of hanging iron bells in the whole tower, and when the cold wind blows, the bells sound crisply and endlessly. And the most peculiar thing is that on the top of the high tower, there is also an elm tree.

Chen Yuanyuan smiled and said: "You Gongzi, this is the Burning Buddha Relic Pagoda at the head of the Eight Views of Tongzhou." According to legend, this tower was built in the Northern Zhou Dynasty and has been around for thousands of years. After an earthquake in the Jiajing period, the base of the tower tilted, and when it was rebuilt, it was found that a Buddha tooth and hundreds of relics were buried in the underground palace. The slave family has long admired its name and has always wanted to come to worship the Buddha, and today it finally got what he wanted. ”

Only then did Zhu Youzhen know that Chen Yuanyuan was a devout Buddhist believer. He couldn't help but remember that in history, Chen Yuanyuan followed Wu Sangui from north to south and all the way to Kunming, Yunnan since Wu Sangui led the Qing army into the customs. When Wu Sangui became the king of Pingxi, Chen Yuanyuan felt guilty and brought him home. A generation of famous prostitutes, but their fate is like falling flowers, which is really a sigh. I wonder if she will repeat the same mistakes with her own crossing?

Chen Yuanyuan didn't know what Zhu Youzhen was thinking, seeing that he had a solemn face, and said that he also believed in Buddhism, he hurriedly cleaned his hands, put his palms together reverently, and bowed under the Taki lotus platform.

Bao Yulian and the four sisters did not believe in Buddhism. When they saw the beautiful scenery here and the first glow after the snow, their childlike hearts rose for a while, and they even screamed and started a snowball fight, and gradually ran away.

Zhu Youzhen naturally didn't believe in Buddhism, but seeing that Chen Yuanyuan was so pious, it was not easy to make a mistake, so he had to wait patiently and quietly.

After a long time, Chen Yuanyuan slowly got up, and a thin layer of tears was already covered in his beautiful eyes, and he said softly: "Childe, you know, Sister Xiaowan left overnight last night and returned to Suzhou." ”
