Chapter 8 Yalu Xiaoxu The first appearance of the scorching flower

When Mu Yixue returned to the capital, she lived in the Yalu courtyard, which was specially prepared by Sima Jingwen for Yi Xue, although it was only a courtyard with two entrances and two exits and six houses, it was also fresh and elegant, and relatively safe and secluded.

At night, the second watch drum sounded, there was already a curfew on the street, Zhou Rong stood in the courtyard as if waiting for someone, at this time a black shadow flew into the courtyard of Yalu, Zhou Rong saw someone, and introduced it into the study.

"Yang Zheng Meets the Girl"

"Uncle Zheng, hurry up, you've worked hard in the past five years."

Yi Xue's eyes couldn't help but be red as she spoke, she was sad when she saw the excitement of the old man for the first time, but she didn't shed tears, she hadn't cried for a long time!

"Yang Zheng is not hard." After five years of shadow life, he has fewer words.

"I heard that Li Zhao went to the sea to catch official documents, and it is not easy for you to hide in Tibet in the past few years."

"Fortunately, he is proud of the spring breeze now, and I'm afraid he won't be able to remember me!

At this time, Zhou Rong brought fruit tea and cakes: "Uncle Zheng, eat something." ”

Yang Zheng picked up the teacup and drank it all: "Miss Xie Zhou." ”

"Uncle Zheng, what have you tracked down in the past few years?" Yi Xue asked.

"Back girl, Yang Zheng has been tracking down the events of the year for the past five years, and found that Li Zhao's true identity is a grass coward named Gao Ba."

"Goba?" Yi Xue sounded a little familiar.

"He's a bandit in the Jiangzuo area."

"I vaguely heard my father and mother mention it, as if he went to Jiangnan to arrest a Jiangyang thief." Yi Xue thought about it.

"That's right, more than ten years ago, Gao Ba was a famous robber in Jingzhou, killing people and goods, robbing merchants, and even official ships, military assets, treasury and silver. So Emperor Xianwu sent my lord to arrest him, and he was sentenced to beheading, but before the execution, he was suddenly poisoned in the prison by revenge. ”

"Then how did Gao Ba become Li Zhao?"

"It's Shi Chong. Shi Chong bought Tongtingwei's mansion, smuggled him out with other death row prisoners, and hid in the army. Yang Zheng said.

"I see." Mu Yixue's eyes became dark.

"I think that back then, two middle- and lower-ranking officers actually framed the first-class lord of the dynasty, which is unreasonable in itself, but now it seems that they were instructed by Shi Chongjia Mi to find a trap. From this point of view, Shi Chong is also my Yang family's enemy. Mu Yixue said this, and there was murderous intent in her eyes.

"Girl, what should we do next?"

"We have to find an opportunity to get rid of these people who aided and abused people step by step, and you continue to pay attention to the movements of Li Zhao and others, and come to Yalu as soon as there is a situation."

Hearing that Li Zhao turned out to be his father's old enemy, Yi Xue already had a plan in her heart.

In the study room of the Zhuohua Courtyard of the Langya Palace, on the bookcase of the big red sandalwood carving, there is an incense burner and the four treasures of the study.

In front of the case, Sima Jingwen frowned slightly and wiped the Changyang Sword.

And Murong Jia was lying on the couch with the big red sandalwood carving in the study, with his feet crossed, one arm supporting his head, and the other hand fiddling with his pigtails boringly, looking lazy and scoundrel.

"Alas, I said Jingwen, have you been to my junior sister these days?"

Hearing Murong Jia mention Yang Yun, Sima Jingwen's hand wiping the sword couldn't help but stop.

Yes, since he came back from Hanguguan, he has never been to Yalu, and when he thought of Yun'er's cold and unfamiliar eyes, Sima Jingwen's heart tightened.

"I'm too busy to get out."

"Ouch, you idle prince, not in the fiefdom or in the land of the Overseers, what do you can't get out of? Are you afraid to see my junior sister, do you want me to help? ”

Murong Jia had a wicked smile on his face, and there was a temptation in his joke.

"Go back to your prince's mansion!"

Sima Jingwen picked up the bamboo slip on the case and threw it to Murong Jia.

Murong Jia got up to dodge, Sima Jingwen picked up another bamboo slip, Murong Jia ran out of the door and said as he ran, "Still coming?" ”

Bumped into Xiu Wuji head-on, Xiu Wuji couldn't care about Murong Jia, stepped forward and said, "Lord Wang, Jia Mi, Duke of Lu Guo, is here." ”

"yes, got it." Sima Jingwen responded expressionlessly.

While speaking, Jia Mi had already come to the door on his own, Jia Mi was in a particularly good mood, and laughed when he saw the scene of Sima Jingwen and Murong Jia.

Before Sima Jingwen could speak, he said to himself: "Benhou just came back from the prince, and I heard that Gu Rong sent twenty jars of aged flower carvings, and I remembered that I hadn't seen King Langya for a while, so I came to ask for a cup of flower carving wine. ”

Murong Jia saw Jia Mi like this, and asked playfully: "Jia Mi, look at your appearance, you have begged for a bargain from the prince again."

Jia Mi laughed and said, "I'm getting married." ”

"Oh? Lu Guogong must marry a peerless beauty, I don't know which girl? Murong Jia asked with interest.

And Sima Jingwen frowned, and continued to wipe his Changyang Sword, as if he didn't care, but also seemed to be expected.

"The best candidate for my Duchess Lu Guo, of course, should be the daughter of Wang Yan of Shangshuling, who is smart and graceful, and has an excellent appearance." Jia Mi looked smug and shook his head and said.

"Wait, this Wang Jingfeng is not your grandmother Mrs. Guangcheng as a matchmaker, and she has been given the crown prince Sima Shu as the crown princess, and it is too often already auspicious." Murong Jia's face was surprised.

"That's right, so what, a prince who is in danger. I begged the queen to be a matchmaker and promised Wang Jingfeng to me. ”

Jia Mi had an expression that didn't take the prince in his eyes at all.

"What about the crown princess?"

"As for the crown princess, the queen is in charge, and she becomes Wang Huifeng, the youngest daughter of Wang Yan's family."

"Does that work?"

"Anyway, for Wang Yan, it's the same for any daughter to become the crown princess." Jia Mi laughed out loud when he said this.

"No wonder you're in such a good mood, isn't this prince angry with you?"

Jia Mi didn't answer, but laughed even more.

Murong Jia's brows moved slightly, and when he saw Jia Mi's smug appearance, he smiled: Isn't this a good time to arrange for junior sister to appear?

Thinking of this, he said to Sima Jingwen: "Jingwen, since Jia Mi is begging for wine, why don't you be the east, aren't you picking up a beautiful woman?" ”

Sima Jingwen immediately understood: "Lu Guogong, last time you were in Jingu Beiyuan Yaji, this king was escorting military rations, and it was a pity that you could not participate." Since the good things of Lu Guogong are approaching, it is better to choose a day than to touch the day, and I will invite everyone to come over to taste wine and reward it tonight. ”

"So very good, so very good". Hearing that King Langya was going to have a treat, Jia Mi was even more happy.

It's night, Langya Palace, Zhuohua Courtyard.

Jia Mi, Shi Chong, Gu Rong, Wang Dao, Lu Ji, Lu Yun, Pan Yue and other about a dozen people gathered.

Sima Jingwen specially sent someone to Zhaofengtai and invited Miss Fengling to come to help the fun.

While talking and laughing, the maid of Langya Wangfu attracted a woman.

I saw that the woman had a light cyan small sleeve short undergarment, a cyan pomegranate skirt hanging to the ground, tied with a ribbon around the waist, and the black hair was simply tied with a silver hairpin, and a cyan ribbon gently held the hanging hair, like a magnolia flower that opened quietly in the spring.

Everyone looked at the woman in front of them, such an elegant jade person, this is also rare to see in Beijing, there seems to be a heroic spirit between the eyebrows, this unique temperament of the light wind and the moon, people can't help but be a little amazed.

Sima Jingwen introduced: "This Yi Xue girl plays the piano well, and now I invite you to enjoy and taste it." ”

I saw Yi Xue come to the guqin, her chin signaled, after a moment of silence, a pair of jade hands stroked the qin, the sound of the piano is loose and distant, and the overtones are very rich, sometimes making people nostalgic, sometimes cold and immortal, sometimes ethereal and changeable.

After playing the song, everyone was silent, intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves, Yi Xue got up and saluted: "Little girl Mu Yixue, I am ugly for all adults."

At this moment, everyone came to their senses, and they all called it good.

"The music is quiet, the aftertaste is subtle, the fingers are high under the fingers, the full of Zhao Qiankun, and the allegorical body of the Tao is really wonderful, so wonderful......" Lu Ji's eyes were full of brilliance, and he kept praising the wonderful.

Lu Yun also nodded and praised: "What my brother said is very true, Miss Yi Xue's "Cai's Five Alleys" is the breath of a ghost, the sum of spring, the arms of a ghost, and the clarity of water. Miss Yi Xue is so skilled, I'm afraid it is difficult for this Beijing master to have a second person, who is the teacher? ”

"When the family teacher is traveling, I specially ask the little girl not to mention the name of the family teacher to anyone, and please forgive me."

"Since that's the case, don't embarrass the girl, the girl shouldn't be my Luoyang clan, right?" Director Wang asked.

"Yi Xue is a native of Yushan near Chang'an, because of the rebellion of the Liukou, the family was exiled, and was rescued by the king of Langya outside the Hangu Pass, the king of Langya was merciful, and he thought that I was helpless, so he took the little girl to the capital and resettled."

Jia Mi laughed and said: "This is the beauty that Prince Murong said, it is really rare, in the future, when our friends in Jingu gather, we can invite Miss Yi Xue to come to help the fun." ”

Shi Chongwen smiled and said, "Such a beautiful woman, why don't you come to my Golden Valley Garden?" ”

Sima Jingwen was a little displeased, glanced at Shi Chong, and said coldly: "Miss Yi Xue is also from a Qingliu family, and her family has suffered an accident, although she was saved by me, she is not a slave, even if she listens to the piano, you can't force it!" ”

Gu Rong said: "Miss Yi Xue is extraordinary, she should be treated with respect, and we also admire Miss Yi Xue's talent. ”

After speaking, he glanced at Shi Chong, and everyone said, it was nature.

At this time, Lu Ji stood up, "Miss Fengling's dancing skills are very good, and Di Xiao is also first-class, you might as well ask Miss Fengling and Miss Yi Xue to play a song "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix", okay?" ”

Everyone said that it was very good, so the song "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix" made everyone very interested.

I saw Lu Ji carrying the pot half anhydride, drunk and chanting:

There is a beautiful woman who will never forget it.

I don't see it for a day, and I think like crazy.

The phoenix soars, seeking the phoenix from all over the world.

Helpless beauty, not on the east wall.

The piano will be used as a substitute for the language, and the conversation will be heartfelt.

When I see Xu Xi one day, I am hesitant.

I am willing to match virtue and join hands.

I shall not fly away, and I shall be destroyed.

Lu Yun then chanted:

The phoenix returns to his hometown and travels all over the world to seek his phoenix.

When I haven't met anything, I don't know what to do!

There are beautiful ladies in the boudoir, and the room is poisonous to my intestines.

What is the fate of the neck for the mandarin ducks, and the beards and cheeks soar together!

.......

Yi Xue Qingli is elegant, her temperament is not bad, and Feng Ling is gorgeous and charming, delicate and colorful, accompanied by such a beautiful woman, everyone is in high spirits, sometimes chanting poems, sometimes talking about metaphysics, sometimes singing and dancing. Yi Xue smiled at the corner of her mouth, her eyes inadvertently glanced at Jia Mi and Shi Chong, and her eyes were full of incomprehensible depth..........
