Chapter 181: The Girl in Green
The green light is soaring into the sky, very weird, everyone knows about the streets and alleys of Chang'an, although it is a flash of inspiration, but it also makes everyone talk about it.
There are clouds in ancient books: heaven and earth are changing, and the world is normal.
Wind, rain, thunder and lightning are common, and natural visions often occur, so there is a saying that auspiciousness falls from the sky.
auspicious, auspicious omen.
But green auspiciousness has never been heard of since ancient times. Is it a good thing or a bad thing?
In the palace, Li Shimin was still playing in the imperial garden, and when he suddenly saw a flash of green light, he immediately went to the Taiji Hall and passed on the eldest grandson Wuji to meet him.
Half an hour later, the eldest grandson Wuji arrived, and Li Shimin asked directly: "You are also aware of the vision, right?" ”
The eldest grandson Wuji bowed and saluted: "Back to Your Majesty, I saw it." ”
"Not only have you seen it, but the people of Chang'an have also seen it. Are you good at this, and tell me whether this phenomenon is auspicious or evil? ”
The eldest grandson Wuji was silent for a moment and said, "The green one is full of vitality. Today, there is a flash of green light, which indicates that spring is coming, and it is not bad or auspicious. ”
"That's right, so let's pass it on."
"Yes."
After a brief exchange, the eldest grandson Wuji left.
Soon, the rumors about the green light spread in the streets and alleys of Chang'an City.
"Your Majesty has been instructed by a superior to know that today's green light is a good omen!"
The streets and alleys are full of pedestrians calling like this, and people infect each other, gradually diluting the suspicion between people.
Xia Shang didn't pay attention to the previous vision, he just regarded it as a natural phenomenon that he couldn't understand, and he wouldn't believe in the bad luck. The two women beside him were still puzzled, Li Luo held Xia Shang's arm and shook it: "Xianggong, is it really a good omen?" Why does the concubine feel that the green light is weird? ”
Xu Yuan has been following behind the two of them, feeling that it is a little dazzling to follow the little couple alone, and it seems lonely to follow alone, perhaps because of the emotion, the green light before made Xu Yuan feel cold, and it always gave people a bad feeling. Hearing Li Luo ask, she also pricked up her ears behind her, and also wanted to hear what Xia Shang was like.
Xia Shang didn't want to answer superstitious questions, and strode forward, his eyes unwavering on the search for places to play around Yong'an Canal.
Along the way, except for the weeping willows and the clear water, there are few things that interest Xia Shang. After all, they are not the ancients, there is no Yaxing who danced and wrote ink by the ancients, although there are many beauties, there are few girls with aura like Li Luo, and what can stop Xia Shang is only strange and lively.
For example, in front of a flower building, I saw a fat and strong woman who found his husband out of the building, but instead of repairing him, he was beaten by his thin husband on the street and his head was bleeding. The people around him didn't notice the slightest problem, but watched the situation go on with a smile and a smile. Xia Shang is also a spectator, all the angry but not stupid enough to confront the thoughts of the whole society.
Later, I saw two wild dogs snatching bones, and watched them for a while.
Having made the two women suspicious of Xia Shang's tastes, who would have thought that a big man would be interested in these things?
didn't take two steps, there were a bunch of people in front of him, and Xia Shang's interest came again.
"Hurry up, let's see what's going on."
Squeezing into the crowd, a girl in green loomed. The flow of people is too dense, you can only see a little green, the emerald green is like a newly smoked branch on a willow branch, green and tender, looking at the clothes seems to be able to think of what the girl in the clothes looks like, it must be a pure and lovely little girl who has not taken off her childishness.
After watching it for so long, there was finally a woman who interested Xia Shang, and when she wanted to squeeze it further, there was a girl's crying inside.
When I paid a little attention, I heard that the little girl in the book was going to sell herself to bury her father.
As soon as he heard this, Xia Shang was instantly scorched, but he didn't expect that he could encounter this kind of plot that was rotten by the TV series.
Xia Shang was still complaining in his heart, but when Xia Shang saw the pure and lovely little face of the girl in green who was already weak and pitiful, any thoughts of complaining were gone, and all that was left was sympathy and pity, with the same expression as the people around him.
The girl in green kept her head down, and no one could see her face when she cried, but the silhouette made the surrounding spectators swoon, and they didn't care about the dead body wrapped in white cloth behind her.
As soon as Xia Shang arrived at the front of the crowd, he heard someone ask, "Girl, how much?" You make a price, sir, I promise to let your father be buried in a beautiful way, and there will be endless glory and wealth in the future! ”
It was a middle-aged man who spoke, well-dressed, but a glance at the mustache was disgusting. As soon as the man's voice fell, another young man stepped forward, glanced at the man with disdain, and turned to the girl in green and said, "Girl, don't be deceived by his rhetoric. This guy is obviously greedy for the girl's beauty, and he has no intention of burying your father. It's better for the girl to follow and ...... to you."
Before he finished speaking, the previous person pulled the young man to his heels, and he couldn't wait to make up for it.
"What nonsense is the little white face talking about? How have I ever coveted a girl's beauty? I can even see the girl's face! Girl, don't be afraid, sir, I love women the most. ”
There were more than one or two ones, and once it started, the scene immediately became chaotic.
Several people who felt that they had a good family background quarreled for the girl in green, and they were afraid of bumping into Li Luo next to him, Xia Shang was busy taking care of Li Luo for a while, and he didn't have time to see the girl in green clearly for a while, and suddenly felt that the girl in green peeked at him.
When Xia Shang looked back, the girl in green was still with her head down, and she didn't seem to move.
Xia Shang didn't care, thinking that he was feeling wrong.
At this time, the quarrelsome people suddenly discussed the result, and asked the girl to choose by herself, and the girl could follow whoever she wanted, which was the fairest.
This idea was quickly accepted by everyone, and someone asked the girl in green who she would like to follow.
The girl in green finally raised her head, and only glanced at everyone, as if she was frightened by the quarrel of the few people just now, and the girl in green shook her head again and again, whispering that she was afraid.
Timidly moved her seat, and unconsciously arrived at Xia Shang's feet, as if unintentionally, the girl in green grabbed Xia Shang's trouser leg and looked up, her eyes were really opposite to Xia Shang. The weak eyes seemed to be able to speak, and the watery seemed to be about to cry, and the hearts of the people were soft.
"This son, are you willing to take in the little girl? It's only ten taels, as long as it's enough for me to bury my father. ”
The eyes of the few people who argued before were green, who wants to kill Chen Biting Jin halfway? I can't wait to rush up and snatch the girl in green. There are too many onlookers to be presumptuous.
Let's talk about it first, and the girl can follow whoever she wants. Everyone looked at Xia Shang with envy, and everyone understood that such a delicate girl couldn't find a more suitable job except for the warm quilt when she bought it, tsk, imagination is a blessing!
However, Xia Shang was still hesitating, and he always felt weird.
Xia Shang hadn't decided yet, but Li Luo next to him first took out a piece of silver: "Xianggong, the concubine has one less maid." ”
