After this incident, the carriage of the Su family did not dare to delay any longer, and urged the carriage to move forward all the way, and Xia Liu on the road has been chattering about the customs of Hangzhou, Lan Rusu did not feel bored, and it was already night when he arrived in Hangzhou, and the tired expressions of everyone were relieved. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The prosperity of Hangzhou city is not inferior to the capital, although the sky is dark, but the streets and alleys are still brightly lit, flying eaves and pavilions, a good magnificent scene. Lanterns are hung in front of every house, different colors, many patterns, lights flickering on and off, looking at it from afar, it is like a light flying in the sky, the stars are dotted, it is very beautiful.

There are many pedestrians on the road, almost everyone has lanterns in their hands, especially those maids, who walk gracefully in the cool spring breeze, attracting countless sons and buddies to show wolf-like desire. As soon as a young lady passed by them, they immediately threw off the folding fan, did not squint, pretended to be upright and upright, chanted a few poems, and led the passing young ladies to smile shyly, and when the young ladies were far away, they immediately returned to their original animal nature.

Several wide carriages continued slowly towards the city, and the horses that pulled the carriages were constantly spitting hot air from their mouths, and the hooves and carriages were stained with a lot of dust, and at a glance it was clear that they had come from a long journey.

Lan Ruxu was leaning on the carriage yawning, and when he glanced up inadvertently, he saw this brilliant scene, and there was a dense crowd in front of him, he immediately opened his mouth wide, and his face was full of surprise on the spot. Damn, what are these people in Hangzhou doing here without sleeping in the middle of the night? Could it be a group blind date at night? It's a big one.

Lan Ruxu was stunned for a moment, suddenly sleepy, pointed to the front and said with a smile: "Brother Xia, no wonder everyone says that the scenery of your Jiangnan is like spring all year round, it turns out that you are the talented and beautiful people in Jiangnan who have collectively spring, and you can't sleep in the middle of the night." ”

Xia Liu was already bold by nature, every time he listened to him, he always listened to one sentence, laughed ten sentences, and also quite had an appetite for himself, so he smiled heartily: "Lan Gongzi, you are really an interesting person, you are not wrong to say so, this Jiangnan is rich in talented and beautiful women, and there are countless romantic affairs, regardless of whether they are talented or talented women, they all have gold-lettered signboards on their heads, and even every imperial examination, this Jiangnan Shizi is the majority." ”

"Golden signboard?" Lan Rusu frowned.

Xia Liu smiled disdainfully: "Lan Gongzi, you haven't been to Jiangnan, naturally you don't know the twists and turns here, these years, the word talent, but a golden bait, especially in this Jiangnan, as long as they play with the pen, sell the poetry couplet, and leave a little high-grade ink treasure, it is hard to find, some women, even courtship with couplets, is not a golden signboard?" ”

Damn, Lan Ruxu deeply despised the crowd in front of him in her heart. It turns out that this is the case, just open your mouth and do it, money, beauties are all here, and there are such good things, no wonder this group of birds and beasts is in addition to pickling girls, it is pickling girls, if you put it in modern times, you have to say that you have no passbook, no house, no car, and women don't look at you.

Hearing Xia Liu's words, Lan Ruxu smiled and said curiously: "Brother Xia, aren't you also from Jiangnan when you listen to the accent?" Why do you listen to the tone of your voice, as if you look down on them a little, but why? ”

Xia Liu nodded and said: "Don't hide it from the son, I am a northerner, I have been following Master Su for many years, and my accent has naturally changed, my old Xia is a rough person, it's not that I look down on these talents, it's just that these sour Confucians open their mouths to the world and close their mouths to the world, as if the world is all down by them, which makes people annoyed." ”

Xia Liu's words were said in an authentic northern accent, and he also had a taste of a Beijing accent. Lan Ruxu felt that what he said made some sense, the world was not only won by literati, and the governance of the country could not only rely on literati, but also on martial arts.

Lan Ruxi said with a smile: "What Brother Xia said is reasonable, this world is the world of the people of the world, and it is not just by playing with the pen and the stick can be beaten down, its Chinese governance and martial arts, the two are indispensable, if it is only by the literati to play the pen and the stick, then who will protect the country?" ”

Xia Liu laughed and said: "Lan Gongzi, your words really go to my heart, I really admire you more and more, I listened to your unique opinions when I was on the boat, and today your words are very different from these scholars, you speak boldly, and there is ink in your stomach, no wonder my family values you so much." ”

Lan Ruxu smiled, and said embarrassedly: "Brother Xia, what are you talking about, we are all northerners, then we are all fellow countrymen, fellow villagers see fellow countrymen, tears in their eyes, if Brother Xia doesn't dislike it, you will call me Brother Lan in the future, don't call me a son, don't call me a son, see more, don't you say?" ”

Xia Liu was moved for a while, holding the horsewhip in his hand and hugging his fist and said: "Lan Gong, Brother Lan, there is nothing to say, you are bold and talented, I can't hide it, my Lao Xia is a rough person, but a person from the capital, thanks to Brother Lan who does not give up, we will be our own family in the future, if you have something to do in Hangzhou in the future, just greet the elder brother, the elder brother will protect you thoroughly." ”

The people of the capital? How can it be so coincidental? Lan Ruxu was shocked in her heart, I was assassinated in the capital, and then I met your family, I haven't met you, so you have to take me down to Hangzhou, there won't be anything boring here, right? But a few words in exchange for a thug, Lao Tzu is not a loss, I just don't know if you are a thug or a killer.

Lan Ruxu thought about it for a while, and said casually: "Then I will thank Brother Xia for his kindness first, no wonder when I confronted the White Lotus Sect today, Brother Xia took the lead, it turned out that Brother Xia was from the capital, I think Brother Xia must be extraordinary in martial arts, at first glance, you have real kung fu, those little shrimps of the White Lotus Sect, Brother Xia must not be in his eyes, right?" Lan Ruxu was puzzled, and secretly looked at the big knife pinned to Xia Liu's waist.

"Brother Lan, you are wrong about this, the few who confronted us are indeed small shrimps, but those few who are sitting in the air are masters, it is estimated that they are hindered by being recognized by others, so they did not move, if they really fight, it is really hard to say who loses and who wins. You don't have to underestimate the White Lotus Sect, there is no shortage of masters under them, just take today, there are no less than ten masters like me, but Brother Lan, you are really good, in the face of the White Lotus Holy Maiden's hostage, you can still change your face and heart without beating, I admire it Lao Xia. After recognizing his relatives, Xia Liu also opened the conversation box and said in a frothing voice.

Master? You're not fooling me, are you? A small non-governmental organization dares to confront the imperial court, doesn't it want to live? Lan Ruxu glanced at Xia Liu, and saw that his eyes were calm, as if he was telling a lie, and suddenly a cold sweat came down again, ten masters like you? Lao Tzu won't unknowingly go away at the ghost gate again, right?

Damn, there are so many masters, you didn't say it earlier, I knew that Lao Tzu didn't dare to tease the White Lotus Holy Maiden if he said anything, it's over, this time the beam is finished, and when I see that the White Lotus Holy Maiden is not a good stubble, in case I give it to me in bed one night-

Thinking of this, the corners of Lan Rusu's mouth were bitter for a while, and he glanced at him again and said: "Brother Xia said that he laughed, I saw that Brother Xia, you are a miracle master, you naturally don't care about those people, Brother Xia, are you-" He didn't finish his words, just used his palm as a knife, gestured downward, and then stared at Xia Liu intently.

Xia Liu was stunned when he saw his movements, then looked around for a moment, and whispered: "Brother Lan, how do you know that my old Xia has killed someone?" ”

Lan Rusu smiled mysteriously and said, "Feeling." ”

"Feelings? Brother Blue, you are really a master, you can feel this? Xia Liu was curious and hurriedly asked.

Lan Ruxu smiled and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother Xia, you are holding a knife, and I am also holding a knife, but the knife I am holding is used to chop vegetables, but the knife you are holding is - I have less momentum than you, I don't know if you have noticed it, Brother Xia?" ”

Seeing Lan Ruxu say this, Xia Liu immediately admitted: "Lan Gongzi really has good eyesight, I can't hide it, I used to stay in the army in the past, and then I became Lord Su's personal guard." ”

Sure enough, he was a soldier, Lan Ruxu nodded secretly, but he was puzzled again. What's going on? Shouldn't all soldiers climb to the rank of general? How could he be sent to be a personal guard of the prefect? And now the old fox threw his personal guard at me again? What is he doing?

He glanced at the saber on Xia Liu's waist, rolled his eyes, and said with a sneer: "Brother Xia, since you have been a soldier, I think you have seen extraordinary, I don't know if you have ever seen a knife, the spine is straight, and the blade is slightly curved-" After he finished speaking, he stared straight at Xia Liu.

Xia Liu's eyes flashed, and he laughed: "Brother Lan is talking about embroidered spring knives, right?" It was the standard saber of the brocade guard, and it was not seen anywhere else. ”

Seeing the look in his eyes flashing, but he was not surprised, Lan Ruxu was shocked for a moment, nodded and said: "It turns out that it is the Jinyi guard next to the emperor who holds this knife, I said that why are those people so imposing, they are on par with Brother Xia's momentum." ”

Xia Liu smiled disdainfully: "Brother Lan, you don't know this, the name of Jinyiwei is really bluffing, but that is the old emperor's calendar, the previous Jinyiwei was a gust of wind around the emperor, blowing in the past that is not leaving an inch of grass, the current Jinyiwei is just a dog, catch whoever bites whom, just the current group of straw bales, my old Xia does not use a knife, I can dry a few empty-handed." ”

It's really worth it for this relative to recognize, this Xia Liu was in front of Lan Ruxu, and unconsciously explained everything clearly, so he almost took out his heart to Lan Ruxu, according to this, Lan Ruxu felt that the Su family had nothing to do with the Jinyi Wei who assassinated him, and he was no longer nervous at the moment.

But it seems that this Su Governor's Mansion is not simple, can find such an awesome personal guard, Lan Ruxu smiled, and said with a flash of inspiration in his mind: "It turns out that Brother Xia is so powerful, and the younger brother really admires it, but now that I think about it, it is I who climb Brother Xia." By the way, Brother Xia, you used to be an errand boy in Beijing, and you have taught a lot of Jinyi Wei, right? ”

"That's natural, the Jinyi guards I once taught in Beijing are not a hundred, but eighty, but I am forbidden in the capital-"

"Uh-huh—" A discordant voice came abruptly.

Day, when it comes to the critical moment, who the hell is going to make trouble? Lan Ruxu was unhappy in her heart, and when she turned her head, she saw Fang Ziyi staring at her with an unkind face.

The two of them chatted hotly, they didn't care when the carriage stopped, and when they saw Fang Ziyi standing in front of them, Lan Ruxu hurriedly smiled and said, "Yo, isn't this Miss Fang?" How can it be so coincidental? ”

Fang Ziyi showed a gentle look in an instant, stretched out his hand and stroked the silver spear on his waist, and sighed: "Yes, what a coincidence, I was just tired of sitting in the carriage, and I accidentally heard someone inquire about my Da Ming's information, and I wanted to come down to find someone to hone and hone my marksmanship." After Fang Ziyi finished speaking, she didn't care about Lan Rusu's expression, turned her eyes at him, took the silver gun off her waist and gestured twice in front of Lan Rusu.

Lan Ruxu felt a cold sweat swishing out of her body, it seems that she found out the news and was seen through by this chick, it's really unlucky, this woman is simply donkey ears, you wait, Lao Tzu will pull out the gun at you sooner or later.

Lan Ruxu quietly wiped the cold sweat on her forehead, inadvertently glimpsed a few Kong Ming lanterns rising in the sky in front of her, and hurriedly changed the topic and said, "Huh? Whose family died and lit the sky lantern? ”

Xia Liu glanced up and said strangely: "Brother Lan, that's obviously a lantern, how can it be a sky lantern?" ”

This Xia Liu is really a tendon, Fang Ziyi came over to interrupt my questioning, you haven't reacted until now, I'm talking. In the face of such an honest man, Lan Ruxu's old face turned red, and he instantly felt a little sorry for him.

Fang Ziyi also glanced up at the lanterns in the sky, and immediately bent down with a smile, and said with teary eyes: "Are you a fool?" Today is the Lantern Festival, and you actually say that it is, it is a sky lantern. ”

Damn, I said why don't people in Hangzhou sleep in the middle of the night, every household hangs lanterns, plays with lanterns, it turns out to be the Lantern Festival, it's over, my reputation is ruined, God, where is there a crack in the ground, let me drill it!

Lan Ruxu blushed her old face, looked at Fang Ziyi's tears of laughter in front of her, and suddenly said angrily: "Smile and smile, have you laughed enough?" I was held hostage today, and I forgot about it when I was nervous and scared, and I laughed - do you laugh again believe that I pulled out a gun at you? In order to comfort her ignorance, Lan Ruxu comforted herself with an excuse, and this excuse could only deceive herself.

Fang Ziyi laughed and thought for a while, then forced a smile and said, "I forgot where you came from, but I don't blame you, no-it's so funny, you let me laugh for a while." Fang Ziyi naturally didn't believe this excuse, but thinking that he came from the Western Regions, he might not know about the festivals of the Ming Dynasty, but he also made an excuse for him.

After Fang Ziyi finished speaking, her whole body still couldn't stop trembling slightly, and her pretty face was also red.

Xia Liu looked at this scene in a daze, and said stupidly: "Brother Lan, Miss Fang, what's wrong with you?" Is it sick. ”

Lan Ruxu glanced at Fang Ziyi with slanted eyes, pouted and said, "Brother Xia is right, this chick is indeed sick, and now she is going crazy." ”

Xia Liu was taken aback, and immediately said eagerly: "Huh? Sheep epilepsy? Brother Lan, let's hurry up and send Miss Fang to see the doctor." ”

Lan Ruxu felt that her brain was not good, so she turned her head mechanically and stared at Xia Liu. Well, you are really my eldest brother, you are really stupidly cute, stupid and connotative.

Lan Ruxu was sighing at Xia Liu's IQ, when she heard a crisp voice say, "Sister Ziyi, and, you scoundrel, we have arrived at the place." ”

He turned his head to look, and saw a beautiful woman standing not far behind Fang Ziyi, dressed in a pure white skirt, carrying a lantern in her hand, like a quiet orchid, slim and elegant, like a lotus fairy, a few traces of pink appeared on her pretty face, she was looking at herself a little shyly, blue as a startled, this quiet wonderful person was none other than the eldest lady of the Su family who changed out of her robe.
