Chapter 162: Song and Dance
"Wind bun gold mud belt, dragon pattern jade palm comb. Go to the window to laugh and help, love the thrush depth of the person when not?
The pen is stupid for a long time, and the beginning of the painting is discussed. Wait for a smile to ask the madman, smile and ask if the joy is not diminished? ”
Xu Hao in front of the Qianqing Palace raised his hand to accept the guards' search, and when he heard the babbling Nanqu coming from inside, he knew that Zhu Yuanzhang was eating.
Just like many people in later generations liked to watch TV while eating, the emperors of all dynasties liked to sing and dance lightly when eating, and it is no wonder that some literati invented the idiom "beautiful and delicious".
It seems that everyone thinks that Xu Hao is the emperor's confidant, and the guards and eunuchs are extremely kind. Gonggong Li stepped forward with a smile on his face and whispered: "The saint is in a good mood tonight, and his spirit is a little excited, Lord Xu, please." ”
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one left and right, Xu Hao also said in a low voice: "Thanks to the blessing of the prince, my nephew has become a hereditary hundred." ”
Gonggong Li's surprise flashed, and he said heavily: "Thank you." ”
Xu Hao said casually: "Regardless of seniority and merit, it is appropriate to be promoted to 100 households, and the younger brother is not favoritism." ”
"That's it." Gonggong Li comprehended and preached loudly: "Enlighten the saint, Jinyi Wei calmed down and asked Lord Xu Hao to see. ”
"Let him in, just in time I want someone to accompany me."
At that moment, Xu Hao lowered his head and walked into the side hall, and saw Zhu Yuanzhang sitting on a chair on one side of the hall, with a boxy rosewood table in front of him, on which were placed four bowls of exquisite dishes and a large bowl of soup, a pot of wine and a gold-lacquered bronze wine cup.
Sitting diagonally opposite are three beautiful singers who play the pipa and zheng, and the aftermath is lingering, and the pear garden is indescribably beautiful. color and art; On one side, the four young dancing girls who are stacked with snow treasures and temples are stacked with clouds, with an ancient tune. Dance back to the bright moon and fall into the Qin Tower, and the song moves to cover the Chu Pavilion.
But I saw a few dancers with long sleeves fluttering. The footsteps are light, and the height is tight and slow; The dancing posture is graceful, and the light and serious diseases are in style. It can be said that the sound of the zither row goose pillar is slow, and the red teeth of the board are new.
Xu Hao didn't understand this, he thought it was very novel and beautiful, and besides, this was a real Han art, so he slapped his palm a few times.
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and asked, "Does it sound good?" ”
Xu Hao was used to telling the truth to Comrade Zhu, and said with a smile: "It's good-looking, but I don't understand it." Dance well, this is the real court music dance skills. Good! ”
Burst! Zhu Yuanzhang squirted out a mouthful of wine in an instant, and asked with a smile: "You have never heard of this since you were a child?" ”
"Nope!" Xu Hao shook his head, "Every time Bixia eats, the ministers guard the fields, and they don't dare to come over and eavesdrop once." ”
"Oh." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with a complicated expression, "Then I ask you, where do you usually spend your time on weekdays?" ”
Xu Hao thought about it for a while and said, "Either stay at home or study at the Mu family." Occasionally, I go to a few friends' houses for a drink and chat. ”
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled: "It's with Jinglong and their little characters, right?" They like to recruit famous prostitutes to accompany them, and you're very good at that, aren't you? ”
Cut! Who is Brother Na? Xu Hao immediately cleared up: "No, not once, every time I attend, I said it in advance." Not to be accompanied by a woman. ”
"Really?"
"Really, if you don't believe it, go ask Brother Jinglong."
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled approvingly: "You are a good boy, let's tell you the truth." They are all the top names in the church, and they are the best at them. It is the romantic stunt of killing people without seeing a knife on the Qinhuai River. Here, give him another song. ”
Xu Hao looked very surprised. The secret passage turned out to be Nanqu on the Qinhuai River, not in the palace, and he really didn't know anything about this kind of wind and snow, because he had never been to the painting boat Qinglou once.
Just listening to the original melodious and melodious tune, there is an indescribable poignant hook in the music, and I saw the dancing girl doing a pitiful look, but there was a hidden teasing in her eyes.
The singer sang sadly: "Trapped in a pit, like a cellar in the dark; Ecstasy Cave, like a prison; The mortuary is clearly arranged like a slaughterhouse; The whole blindly dead and warm survive and rob.
Signboard big-character bookmaker: buy pretty gold, brother Hugh; Wrapping the head brocade, the mother-in-law picks it up; Sell for money, my sister doesn't take credit.
The dance skirt and song board are new with each passing day, and the gold is scattered only this body; Message: Rich children rest and luxury, and thrift is like a good medicine to cure the poor. ”
Zhu Yuanzhang listened attentively, but Xu Hao was not moved at all, forget it in the previous life, there is no shortage of beauties around him in this life, so why bother to buy laughter again? I don't feel anything special.
Although everyone is drunk when wine is not drunk, and people are obsessed with themselves if they are not charming, Xu Hao asked himself, don't be greedy, greed is struck by lightning!
After a long time of singing, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed: "The endless gold and silver, and the fireworks village that is not satisfied, are the biggest sins in the world." Sometimes I really want to completely ban the gambling house Qinglou, but unfortunately for various reasons, I didn't make an order. ”
Xu Hao knew that he couldn't interject at this time, he was a spy, not a Wenchen, and he would cross the line by talking nonsense.
Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly smiled and said, "Do you like it?" If you like, I'll give you a few. In the future, they should be treated as good students, although they are guilty, they are still miserable people in the end. ”
Xu Hao didn't think about it and said, "I don't want that blessing, I don't want it." ”
Zhu Yuanzhang was not reluctant, waved his hand and said: "Stupid person who doesn't understand amorous feelings!" Since you don't take it, forget it. ”
The dancing girl and the singer knelt lightly on the ground and kowtowed three times, and the silent fish retreated. Gonggong Li stepped forward to take a look, and said softly: "Bixia hasn't finished eating yet, do you want to summon the palace lovers to come and sing and dance?" ”
"No need." Zhu Yuanzhang lowered his head and picked up the remaining half bowl of rice, and Gonggong Li knew that Bixia cherished food the most, so he hurriedly scooped a spoonful of soup into the bowl.
Xu Hao shook his head slightly, rice and soup are not good for appetite, not to mention that it is still cold. But I also know that even if I use it to heat, it should be cold on a cold day.
Zhu Yuanzhang ate slowly, Xu Hao kept the rule of eating without saying a word, and stood aside silently. gradually became a little impatient, thinking that as a junior, it would not be too much to be a courtier.
So Xu Hao slowly pulled away Jiashi, and played a set of Tai Chi in front of the emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up, and he ate the meal with relish.
After eating, Zhu Yuanzhang held a cup of tea and quietly watched Xu Hao's drills with one move and one style in his mind, and gradually became silent. waited until Xu Hao finished practicing before he spoke.
"Who did you learn this from? and the thirteen styles of Tai Chi of the old road of Sanfeng in Wudang Mountain. Looks like but not shapes. ”
Xu Hao was stunned for a moment and said, "When I was a child, I learned from an old man I didn't know. The minister is not clear. ”
Zhu Yuanzhang was suddenly puzzled and said: "Probably the disciple and grandson of Sanfeng Lao Dao, who has changed the thirteen styles of Tai Chi, and he can be regarded as a master." After the festival, you teach me, your set of boxing techniques is like flowing water, although it is beautiful but useless, abandoning the original way of overcoming rigidity with softness and continuous killing, it seems that it is purely for ornamental purposes. It's a good time for me to practice. ”
Xu Hao was stunned when he heard this, and said with admiration: "The Holy Lord is really a martial arts master, this is for exercising." ”
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said: "You haven't forgotten to flatter me at any time, let's say, what are you here for tonight?" ”
At that moment, Xu Hao said that Xu Han had abandoned the chaos and caused one corpse and two lives, and Zuihou said: "The minister hates this kind of person the most, even if the death is just a maid, but it is also a living life." Since he died because of him, he must be punished, otherwise what is the reason of heaven? ”
"Well said." Zhu Yuanzhang praised it and said quietly: "Although you came here to beg me for private matters. I am also very pleased, my life is at stake, and no one can take it lightly! It seems that you are planning to castrate the murderer and become a eunuch, right? Yes, such a punishment can make him miserable for the rest of his life. But you're not afraid of being accused by the elders of being too ruthless because of this. Regardless of family affection? ”
Xu Hao smiled faintly and said calmly: "Don't be afraid." If you love to say, you can say, and if you love to scold, you will scold. It's good that I have a clear conscience myself. ”
Comparing his heart to his heart, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed with satisfaction: "Well said." Isn't that the case in my life? But for the peace of the country and the people, I have a clear conscience, and the rights and wrongs of the future will be left to the iron pen history books of future generations to comment arbitrarily. ”
Xu Hao sensitively observed that the emperor's face was becoming more and more flushed at the moment, it was indeed too excited, and it seemed that someone was destined to die tomorrow.
In this way, the emperor thinks that his henchmen are in less trouble, and when he feels that he is foolproof, I am afraid that it will be the time to die, which is really a blessing and a curse.
After accompanying the emperor for a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang was in high spirits tonight, and talked endlessly about the past.
How many people in this world can hear a generation of Hongwu Emperor talk about the past and the mental journey at that time? A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Xu Hao's eyes suddenly brightened, and he listened attentively, for fear that missing a sentence would cause a lifetime of regret.
Bosom friends are hard to find, so Zhu Yuanzhang's interest in talking is even stronger, and he drank three cups of tea in a row with a dry mouth.
It wasn't until the first watch that Gonggong Li carefully reminded the emperor that it was time to rest, and Xu Hao got up and said goodbye with interest.
Zhu Yuanzhang, who rarely poured out the events of the year, felt comfortable, and still smiled unsatisfactorily: "I'll tell you when I'm free, and then let the emperors and grandchildren in the capital also come to listen, the province only knows how to enjoy wealth and nowhere is the difficulty of starting a business in the ancestors!" By the way, and your old man is invited to come, and everyone eats tea and tells stories together, which is very fast. ”
Xu Hao sighed in his heart, and said with high interest on his face: "I want it." Bixia rest early, and the minister will retire. ”
At the moment, the long-awaited palace and eunuch hurriedly stepped forward to wait for the emperor to sleep, and Gonggong Li sent Xu Hao out of the Qianqing Palace, and naturally gave a thumbs up.
"Since the death of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, it has been nearly two years, and it is the first time for our family to see the saint so comfortable, and it is also the first time to see someone in the Qianqing Palace with the saint for so long, you are really amazing. Our family dares to assert tonight, Xu Gongzi, your future is limitless, and don't forget the villain at that time. ”
Xu Hao smiled and said: "I borrowed your auspicious words, not only will I not forget my father-in-law, but the one in the north who is the most nostalgic, and I will definitely not forget my father-in-law." ”
“haha!” Gong Li smiled, stopped and bowed to Xu Hao's courtesy, and saw the young Xungui nod slightly, then raised his head and walked away unhurriedly.
Gonggong Li put away his smiling face and said meaningfully: "Looking at his henchmen, you can know the character of his master, King Yan is really not simple!" ”
An hour later, there were three crisp bangs and a loud "watch out for the candles".
In the pro-army Governor's Mansion on the side outside the Forbidden City, Xu Hao couldn't sleep, so he waited quietly for news with the red charcoal basin under his feet.
Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps, Xu Hao's left hand pressed on the handle of the embroidered spring knife wrapped with gold wire, and the next moment he heard a gentle knock on the door.
Xu Hao stuffed the knife under the pillow and said, "Come in." ”
The door was slowly opened, and Mu Hui strode in without squinting, kneeling on one knee: "Lord Qiyu, Xu Han unfortunately died violently." ”
Xu Hao frowned and asked, "How did you die?" ”
"Back to my lord, I bled to death when I was castrated." Mu Hui's face does not change color.
Xu Hao stared at Mu Hui for a long time, and said softly: "If you don't do it well, go down and cut off your fingers." ”
"Subordinates receive orders." Mu Hui's expression remained unchanged, she got up and slowly retreated to the door, turned around and strode away.
Xu Hao took a sip of tea, and after a while, he saw Shi Feng walk in and said, "My lord, Mu Hui has cut off his finger with his own hands and sent it for treatment." ”
"My brocade guards have always been punished, and they have been rewarded. From now on, Mu Hui is the general banner of the seven products, and I will show him the saint when I turn around. You will all have him at the head. If you are not convinced, you will also give me credit in the future. ”
"Yes!" (To be continued......)
