Chapter 111: Talented and Beautiful
The next day, Liu Yong rode in front, and Zhen Mi took a small car in the back and came to Cao Cao's mansion. Seeing that it was Liu Yong, the captain of the www.biquge.info Prime Minister's Mansion stepped forward with a flattering face, and said while waiting for Liu Yong to dismount: "It turns out that General Liu is back." I haven't seen you for many days, but I want to die as a young general. ”
Liu Yong smiled slightly, took out a large piece of silver from his arms and stuffed it into his sleeve, and asked with a smile, "Is the third prince here?" ”
The lieutenant smiled and said, "Childe is studying in the garden." The last general will show the way to the general. ”
Liu Yong nodded, helped Zhen Mi get out of the car, and said with a smile: "This young lady is an old acquaintance of the third son, can it be convenient to go in?" ”
The lieutenant saw that Zhen Mi was wearing a wide-brimmed hat with a thin yarn hanging from the brim, although he couldn't see his face clearly, but he was slender and exquisite, and he had already decided in his heart that this was a beautiful woman that Liu Yong dedicated to Cao Zhi, so he flattered and said: "It is not only the old acquaintance of the third prince, but also the general, how can it be inconvenient." General please! ”
As he spoke, he led Liu Yong and Zhen Mi into the mansion. Zhen Mi saw that this mansion is extremely vast, the front is a magnificent mansion, and the back is a deep and beautiful garden, the mansion has a bright corridor and a ridge, solemn and solemn, and the pavilion is curved, rich and natural; The rockery bridge in the garden has thousands of views; Strange flowers and plants, competing for beauty. From time to time, there are maids and slaves passing through the room, and in some places there are soldiers guarding them, which shows the power and wealth of the master. However, in terms of land occupation and luxury, it is quite inferior to Yuan Shao's Mansion, so Zhen Mi is not surprised, but it is strange that Liu Yong brought himself here to see someone, but it must not be Cao Cao.
I don't know how far I went, Zhen Mi was thinking to herself, but she heard the captain stop in front of a moon gate, and whispered to Liu Yong: "The third prince is studying at the piano next to the water pavilion in the courtyard, and the general can see it when he enters the door, and the last general will retire because it is inconvenient." ”
"Thank you." Liu Yong thanked him and listened quietly, and heard a melodious and far-reaching sound of the piano. Liu Yong said with a smile: "Although the person inside is not very old, he is full of talent and learning, and he is rare in the world; On the appearance, the jade tree is in the wind, chic and elegant. There are few in the world, and the young lady knows it at first sight. Zhen Mi's face flushed slightly, and her curiosity was even greater.
As soon as I entered the door, it suddenly opened up. It turned out to be a large pond, and the edge of the pond was planted with willow trees, and the branches were slender and swaying, almost reaching the surface of the water. There are a lot of lotus flowers in the pond, but it is almost the middle of winter. Quite sluggish. Along the pond is a winding corridor, straight to the opposite side of the water pavilion, although all are red pillars and green tiles, but the shape is different, and the water feature sets off each other, blends into one, fresh and elegant, shows the master's ingenuity is unique.
At this time, the sound of the piano had stopped, and Liu Yong raised his eyes to see a low table in the water pavilion. There is a guqin on it, and there are pen, ink, paper, fruit plates, wine utensils, etc., and there is a copper kettle next to it, "toot" is steaming, a young man with a crown and a broad belt is leaning on the side, holding a book, and the sound of reading is loud and frustrating, endlessly, it is Cao Zhi Cao Zijian.
Liu Yong raised his hand and smiled: "Zijian Gongzi is so comfortable!" ”
Cao Zhi heard that it was Liu Yong's voice and raised his head. Surprised and delighted: "It turns out that Mr. is back, please come over." ”
Liu Yong led Zhen Mi through the water corridor, walked to Cao Zhi, and said with a smile: "Zijian is really happy. ”
Cao Zhi bowed his hand and said, "I see that the sky is just right today. So I took this opportunity to play the piano and read. He added: "Didn't Mr. follow his father to attack Jizhou, why did he come back?" ”
Liu Yong replied: "There is a detailed report, Liu Biao and Sun Quan took advantage of the prime minister's troops to send troops to Hebei, and they were ready to move. The prime minister was worried about the safety of Xu Du, so he ordered Liu Yong to lead the army to reinforce the army. ”
Cao Zhi let out a light "oh". Catching a glimpse of a beautiful figure beside Liu Yong, he couldn't help but be stunned and asked, "Sir, dare to ask who this young lady is?" ”
Liu Yong smiled and said to Zhen Mi: "Miss, please take off the headscarf." Zhen Mi did as she said, revealing a peerless appearance. Cao Zhi only felt a "buzzing" sound in his ears, and his chest was like a boulder hitting, and what caught his eye was a peerless beauty. Cao Zhi asked himself how many women he had seen, but no one could compare to the woman in front of him in terms of appearance, and he couldn't help but be dumbfounded and fascinated.
Zhen Mi was also peeking at Cao Zhi, only to see that this son was only seventeen or eight years old, with a long body, wide robe and big sleeves, a face like a crown of jade, eyes like a star, white teeth and red lips, a unique charm, and a beautiful appearance, and his heart moved.
Liu Yong peeked at each other's feelings for each other, and his heart was settled, and he said with a smile: "Liu Yong will introduce you first." This son is Cao Zhi, the third son of Prime Minister Cao Cheng, Cao Zijian, whose words are colorful and luxuriant, overflowing with ancient and modern, and outstanding; This young lady's name is Zhen Mi, who is wise and blue-hearted, plump and slender, and has a peerless appearance. ”
Liu Yong saw Cao Zhi looking at Zhen Mi intently, with a strong affection in his eyes, while Zhen Mi looked shy, happy in his heart, and said with a smile: "Zijian, will you let Miss stand all the time?" ”
Cao Zhi's face was red, and he said: "It's rude, Miss is not strange." Miss please, sir please. ”
The three of them sat down separately, and Liu Yong did not hide it, so he told the ins and outs of the matter one by one. At that time, people didn't care too much about chastity, and sure enough, Cao Zhi didn't care when he heard that Zhen Mi was Yuan Shao's daughter-in-law, and Zhen Mi herself didn't feel ashamed. Liu Yong smiled again: "Zijian is erudite and talented, Miss is beautiful and vulgar, the so-called 'talented son with beauty', so Liu Yong made his own proposal to bring Miss back to Xudu, I wish you two Qin Se and Ming, and forever tie the knot." Looking at the two of them again, I saw that Zhen Mi was embarrassed and affectionate; And as far as Cao Zhi's eyes could see, it was all on Zhen Mi, Liu Yong nodded secretly, it seems that he is the right person this month.
Liu Yong said to Zhen Mi: "Zijian is quick to think and exports, can Miss want to see it?" ”
Zhen Mi said in a low voice: "Zhen Mi listens to the general." The voice was like a delicate warbler's first chirp, delicate and charming, and Cao Zhi was even more stunned and demented when he heard it.
Liu Yong coughed lightly and said to Cao Zhi: "Can Zijian dare to answer?" ”
Cao Zhi was stunned for a moment and said, "What did Mr. ask Zijian to do?" Zhen Mi couldn't help but smile lightly when she saw that Cao Zhi was so fascinated by herself. Cao Zhidun saw a hundred flowers blooming, but also like a spring breeze, like falling clouds, his whole body was light and warm.
Liu Yong said it again, Cao Zhi knew that this was for me to show it in front of the beauty, so he was overjoyed and said loudly: "Please ask Mr. to make a question." ”
Liu Yong had already planned, pretending to think for a long time, Fang grinned and said, "How about the topic of the young lady's appearance?" ”
Zhen Mi let out a light "ah" and hurriedly lowered her head and said nothing. Cao Zhi didn't expect Liu Yong to come up with this question, but this is exactly what he wanted, and after a little contemplation, he picked up the pen, and the text was written without adding points.
"What is written? Zi Jiannian came to listen. ”
Cao Zhi cleared his throat and recited loudly: "The shape of the young lady is also like a frightening dragon, graceful like a dragon." Rong Yao autumn chrysanthemum, Huamao spring pine. The hair is like the moon covered by light clouds, and the fluttering is like the snow of the flowing wind. Looking at it from afar, it is as bright as the sun rising in the morning glow. Forced to observe. The scorching hibiscus is out of the waves. The fiber is heartfelt, and the fit is shortened. If the shoulders are cut, the waist is as plain. Stretch the neck of the show, the quality is dewed, and the fragrance is not added. Lead Huafu Yu. The clouds are elegant, the eyebrows are trimmed, the lips are long, and the teeth are fresh. Bright eyes are good, Jing assists in inheriting power, beautiful posture, and quiet and leisurely. The brilliance of the cloth, the brilliance of the Yaobi. Wear gold and emerald jewelry, decorated with pearls to show off the body......"
Zhen Mi was both happy and ashamed when she heard it, this son is not only noble and Tsinghua. And the literary style is so outstanding, he can write and write, but how can he be so beautiful. Liu Yong was also stunned, this is the sentence in "Luo Shen Fu", I have heard of the sentences "Soaring ......". He didn't understand these sentences very well, but under the spur of Cai Wenji, he also learned a lot of ancient Chinese, and now he can basically listen to a rough idea.
Liu Yong praised: "Wonderful. is worthy of Cao Zijian. He said to Zhen Mi again: "Is Miss still satisfied?" Zhen Mi's expression was even more twisted, her face was full of redness, and she bowed her head and replied: "How can the slave family be as beautiful as the son wrote, the son is too elevated." ”
"I don't think so." Liu Yong smiled. He said to Zhen Mi again: "I promised to find a family for Miss." What does Miss think of Zijian? ”
Zhen Mi became even more shy when she heard this, and she lowered her head and didn't dare to respond. Liu Yong laughed and said, "It seems that Miss agreed." He glanced at Cao Zhi and said with a smile: "Zijian doesn't need to say anything." Liu Yong picked up the teacup and said, "I can't drink your favorite wine." Today, Liu Yong replaced wine with tea, and toasted two people with a glass first. I wish you a loving husband and wife and grow old together. ”
Cao Zhi was shocked: "What do you mean by this, sir?" ”
Liu Yong sighed lightly and said: "'There is no feast in the world', son, Liu Yong is about to leave Xudu, I'm afraid he will never come back." ”
Cao Zhi hurriedly said, "Why did Mr. leave?" ”
"Zijian must know that I will have to leave sooner or later."
Cao Zhi was silent for a long time. Fang said in a low voice: "Although I heard my father say that Mr. is leaving, I didn't expect it to come so quickly. It's just that I don't know when I'll be able to meet my husband. ”
Liu Yong said with a smile: "There is a confidant in the sea, and the end of the world is like a neighbor." ”
Cao Zhi was surprised: "Sir's sentence is refined and heroic, and Zijian is difficult to follow." ”
"I didn't write it." Liu Yong laughed, for fear that Cao Zhi would continue to ask, so he continued: "Zijian, before leaving, Liu Yong has a word to give." Cao Zhi leaned over and bowed, "Please give me advice." ”
Liu Yong Zhengse said: "Zijian is alert and versatile, and he is sensitive. If you only talk about learning, if you admit that no one will dare to be the first in the next day. However, you are too casual, enthusiastic and not pretentious, willful and not considerate of worldly affairs, frank but not good at power, indulgent and unrestrained, and you are tender and kind-hearted, affectionate and righteous, so you are not your brother Cao Pi's opponent in governing the country or dealing with people. Seeing Cao Zhi's face swollen red, Liu Yong smiled and said: "But it is also for this reason that more people, including me, Liu Yong, prefer Zijian to Ziheng." That's why I'm going to bring Miss Zhen to you instead of leaving it to the eldest prince. Because only by following you will Miss Zhen be happy and have a safe life. ”
Zhen Mi was stunned, her heart was inexplicably grateful, and Ying Ying bowed down to thank her. Cao Zhi also bowed down and said, "Thank you Mr. for your teaching, the student has written it down." The student has a young lady, what is the use of that title. When Zhen Mi heard this, her heart was even more moved, and she and Cao Zhi looked at each other, full of tenderness and sweetness.
Liu Yong said again: "There is a recipe here, Zijian must put it away." When Cangshu Gongzi gets sick, he can use it. I didn't go to see him, because I was afraid that I would be reluctant to leave after I met. He stood up, saluted each of them, and said, "Zijian, Miss Zhen, I will entrust it to you." Liu Yong took his leave first. ”
"Good go, sir!" "The general's great kindness and virtue, Zhen Mi will never forget." The two bowed down and bowed again.
Liu Yong was brisk after handling this matter, and wanted to return to the mansion as soon as possible, but as soon as he left the courtyard, a person suddenly appeared next to him, grabbed his sleeve, and said: "Is Liu Gongzi leaving the prime minister?" (To be continued.) )
