Chapter 60: From now on, Xiao Lang is a passerby

Ye Guan himself was driven by Zhu Qinglin like this, and he also showed a gentle smile that he had not noticed.

This woman is mad like a devil, and when she is quiet, she is like a child without a home. Strong on the outside, but you can't stop the fragility on the inside.

"Ye Guan, look, there's a hare just running past by the river!"

After a moment of silence, Du Yan suddenly pointed to a farmland by the river, as if an animal had just run over.

"Ye Guan, look, the fish in the water have floated up!"

The weather is very warm these days, so it is rare to see rabbits in the wheat field, and there is no ice on the river, so you can also see fish floating on the water.

"Ye Guan, let's go catch that rabbit! No, let's catch the fish from the river first! Zhu Qinglin looked at Ye Guan with an expectant look in his eyes......

Ye Guan shrugged: "Where can a two-legged person outrun a four-legged rabbit, people can't go against nature." ”

"I don't believe it, I'm going to catch it!"

Zhu Qinglin pursed his mouth after hearing this, and chased the rabbit along the edge of the field by himself, with a smile and a look of ambition on his face.

After running for a while, although Zhu Qinglin's martial arts were strong, he couldn't compare to the rabbit in the three holes of the cunning rabbit, and he returned in vain.

Ye Guan didn't have as good kung fu as Zhu Qinglin, so he could only stand aside and watch. Seeing Zhu Qinglin coming back empty-handed, he said with a smile: "Yes, people can't outrun rabbits, but if you are a rabbit, you must be the fastest in the rabbit world." ”

"Let's go catch fish." Zhu Qinglin didn't know who was competing, although she didn't catch a rabbit, she was going to try to catch a fish.

"Then I'll borrow a fishing net." Ye Guan saw that Zhu Qinglin refused to give up, so he found a fishing boat by the river, spent a few copper coins, and brought a fishing net.

"Catch a fish." Seeing that Ye Guan brought the fishing net, Zhu Qinglin's interest rose again, and he jumped all the way to the river, and threw the fishing net in his hand out.

Qin Kan had no choice but to smile helplessly and follow.

I didn't catch any fish in the first few handfuls, but after trying a few times, Zhu Qinglin's skills became higher and higher. Finally, I finally caught a fish, which was not big, but it was alive.

"Ye Guan, look! , I got it! A fish! A live fish! Zhu Qinglin cheered happily.

"Hehe, I have fish soup to drink today. This is caught by Miss Zhu herself, fish, fish, you are really blessed! Ye Guan said with a smile.

"Let it go." Originally, Zhu Qinglin was very interested, but when she looked at the lively fish and the wide river, she suddenly lost interest.

"Got it? Why? ”

"Because its home is in the river, in the river of freedom. It's like the rabbit that runs fast, its home is in the fields, in the boundless land. No one cares about them, they are comfortable. I don't want them to be like me......" Speaking of this, Zhu Qinglin squatted down and gently put the live fish in the water.

When the fish saw the water, they couldn't swim out of sight, but Zhu Qinglin was still squatting by the river, looking fixedly at the place where the fish went into the water

Ye Guan frowned slightly, Zhu Qinglin today is not normal, what happened to her?

"Ye Guan, you're right, manpower is sometimes exhausted, sometimes people really can't fight with the sky, sometimes they can't fight with others, especially when that person is still their own relatives. It's nice to be free, but after that, it doesn't belong to me anymore...... Some people will put the fish back into the water, but no one will ......" Speaking of this, a line of clear tears poured down from Zhu Qinglin's eyes, dripping on the ground in big drops, and he couldn't stop it.

Ye Guan's heart was tense somehow, because of her sorrow, because of her tears, his heart was inexplicably a little painful.

"Qinglin, what's wrong with you? What happened? ”

Du Yan didn't answer, still staring at the water surface with a little ripples, and said to herself: "As soon as you enter the Houmen, it is as deep as the sea, and Xiao Lang is a passerby from now on." ”

"Ye Guan, will you walk back with me? I don't want to ride a horse, then I'll be back in the capital too soon. Zhu Qinglin stood up and looked at Ye Guan with a light smile.

Ye Guan nodded and didn't speak, just walked slowly with her, and the two walked side by side with a tacit understanding, but no one spoke. walked like this for more than half an hour, until it was almost dark, Zhu Qinglin reluctantly rode on the horse and returned to the capital.

When they came to the gate of the city, they were about to separate. Zhu Qinglin pulled the reins of the horse, turned the horse's head and stood side by side with Ye Guan, took out a small handkerchief from his purse and handed it to Ye Guan.

"What is this? Two cows playing in the water? Ye Guan took the handkerchief and found that there were two buffaloes painted on it, so he tilted his head curiously and asked Zhu Qinglin.

Zhu Qinglin smiled and said: "This is the knitting I learned at home in the past few days, this is my first work, since you named it "Two Cows Playing in the Water", then I will give it to you." ”

After that, without waiting for Ye Guan to answer, he flicked his whip and rode away.

At the moment of turning his head, Ye Guan, who was sitting on the horse, clearly saw that two crystal tears fell to the ground, accompanied by the sound of the horse's hooves, and gradually disappeared on the bluestone slab.

……………………

"I've been walking around this market for the past few days, and it's boring. Ye Guan, is there anything fun? On Xihuamen Street, a well-dressed young man with a young butler, followed by eight people who looked like family members were walking on the street boredly.

In the past few days, the New Year has come to an end, and several masters who taught Zhu Houzhao to study have rested. Emperor Hongzhi is also busy with the New Year's festival, so Zhu Houzhao is like a wild bird that has left the cage and a dragon that has entered the water, running out of the Forbidden City almost every day, and coming to Ye Guan to play.

"It's too early, if it's late, we'll have a lot of fun." Ye watched the boring Zhu Houzhao, and he didn't know where the fun was.

It has been almost half a year since he came to the Ming Dynasty, and Ye Guan sometimes feels that the life of the ancients is indeed quite boring.

Every day is sunrise and sunset, there is no nightlife, the sun goes down and you can only sleep on the kang. Either sleeping on your own kang or sleeping on someone else's kang, or a brothel kang, it's all kang anyway. No wonder the ancients had many children, there was no nightlife, what could they do if they didn't lie at home and have children.

"Eh, what's going on there? Ye Guan, Liu Jin, do you know? Zhu Houzhao saw that a roadside alley was very prosperous, there was a restaurant at the corner of the street, the flags were displayed, it was very lively, although it was noon, there were still many people in and out, so he was interested.

Qiu Ju fixed his eyes and took a look, but found that this alley was the widow of the king and widow Xiejie that they could not enter except for the eunuchs they could enter, and it was the famous Eight Hutongs in Beijing (ps: The rise of the Eight Hutongs was still in the last years of the Qing Dynasty, when the brothel was lifted, and the Danjiao actors who stayed there lost the way to sell themselves, which gradually led to the Eight Hutongs from the rabbit master's field to the well-known brothel. Emperor Hongzhi is the only son, and he is extremely fond of Zhu Houzhao, and the emperor himself has also been out of the palace, so even if he knows that the prince is out of the palace without permission, at most he will beat them a few boards, so this group of eunuchs dares to let the prince out of the palace, but if it is known that they took the prince to visit the kiln, at least it will be a mess and beat to death.

"Lord Ye." Ma Yongcheng also hurriedly signaled Ye Guan with his eyes and asked him to come forward to fool Zhu Houzhao over. They are all grasshoppers on a rope now, and no one can escape.

"Yo, isn't this Lord Ye? It's been a long time since I've been here. Coming to play today? Please come in, please come in. As soon as Ye Guan wanted to speak, a tall and thin man came out from the side, Ye Guan took a closer look, but it was the big teapot that went back to the ** building.

This big teapot is one of the two big teapots I met when I got Ye Guan Weifu last time and came to the ** building to see what Oiran combed together. Ye Guan also rewarded him with a tael of silver, but he didn't expect the eyes of this big teapot to be good, and he saw himself outside the mouth of the alley.

This big teapot also regretted it, the last time I saw Ye Guan, he was just the son of a rich businessman, and the merchant had no status, so he didn't pay attention to the one or two silvers. When I went back, I used it on the body of a secret prostitute in Nancheng. But later I learned that this young man who looked young that night was the official of Jinyiwei, although he didn't know how big an official it was, but he heard that the filial piety silver of the ** building in the future would be changed to Jinyiwei, and his own bustard also personally gave Li'er, who was also an official prostitute, to Ye Guan. Immediately knew that this young man's official was definitely not small. At that moment, he regretted that he didn't compliment Ye Guan more that day. Young people love to listen to flattery, if they do a good job, maybe this master can change himself from a lowly status to a slave. Although it is still lower than ordinary people, it is better to work for a few years after Ye Guan was injured and marry a maid in a house or the daughter of a farmer's family than to find an old and decrepit prostitute in this brothel for a lifetime, or die alone, right? I paid attention to Ye Guan at the moment, thinking that when I saw this master again, I would definitely pat myself on the back.

"Ye Guan, you come here for a long time? Why is he so familiar with you? Zhu Houzhao saw that the man was quite enthusiastic about Ye Guan, so he asked curiously.

"Hehe, Childe, you listen to his nonsense, I've only been here once, or to handle the case." Ye Guan originally saw that Zhu Houzhao was interested in the Bada Hutong, and he was immediately depressed in his heart.

It was okay when I didn't see Zhu Houzhao, why did he appear in the history books since he met Zhu Houzhao? Eagles and dogs, micro-clothes out of the palace, and shops in the palace, now it has become a brothel. It is also recorded in the history books that Zhu Houzhao likes male style, will it also show it in himself in the future?
