Chapter 39: The Top of the Beauty List (Part II)

The one with the sword felt ashamed and rebuked angrily: "What are you laughing at? ”

The young man of Chu State suddenly grabbed the folding fan brother with lightning speed, pushed him to the edge of the old city tower, and held his head down, so that he could see how far the three-story old city tower was from the ground below. The young man of Chu State sighed while holding down the struggling and scolding fan brother: "The one who holds the sword, I have already asked you to put down the sword, do you have to throw down your brother who can't draw?" So he pushed the fan outward.

The old man stopped: "Young man! I can't do it, I can't do it! This bamboo forest three young people are the three young masters of the Qin family, the richest man in the Chen country. ”

The young man of Chu State laughed: "I only heard that King Chen's surname is Li, not Qin." The richest man in Chen Guo? Maybe in a few days, he won't be surnamed Qin. ”

The man with the sword saw that the young man of the Chu State was not afraid when he heard the name of the three young men of their bamboo forest, but laughed out loud, and he didn't know what his origin was, so he had to put down the sword first.

The young man of Chu still didn't let go of the folding fan brother who was clasped on the wall of the city tower with his backhand, and asked disdainfully: "Folding fan Qin, what kind of business does your Qin family have?" ”

Seeing the traffic under the castle tower, Brother Fan felt that he would fall badly, and replied tremblingly: "I ...... Our Qin family does all kinds of business! My dad ...... Dad is Chen Wangqin's 'Great Chen Salt Grain Blade Water and Land Trade Governor'! You...... If you still don't let go of me, be careful that my father writes to His Royal Highness King Chen...... Under...... The next goal is to the Kyushu countries, you arrogant boy wanted! ”

The young man of Chu State let out an "oh", and suddenly let go of Brother Fan's arms, and Brother Fan suddenly planted his head forward and ate a mouthful of soil.

The people present laughed, which made the bamboo forest three young people lose face. The one holding the sword pointed at the young man of Chu State with his sword, and said with a hard mouth: "Stinky boy, you can't get along with our brother today, sooner or later you will be unlucky!" ”

The young man of Chu State covered his face with his sleeves, pretended to be afraid, and whispered in a shriek: "Oops! My father is Chen Wangqin's 'Dachen Salt Grain Soldier Blade, Water and Land Commerce, and Governor of All Business'! Boy, you can't get along with me today, and sooner or later you'll be unlucky! ”

The crowd laughed again. The man with the sword was red-faced and asked, "Stinky boy, what is your name?" ”

The young man of Chu State shook his sleeves and threw the bamboo leaf-shaped jade pendant in his hand under the old city tower. Lin Ying was stunned to look at such a chic scene in front of her, and felt that the fiery sunset behind this young man of Chu was not as bright as his ink and gray clothes.

The young man of Chu State ignored the three young men of the bamboo forest, walked straight to Lin Ying, and said: "This 'Xiling Ink and Bamboo Picture' has a lofty artistic conception, I am willing to buy it for five taels of silver, are you willing?" ”

Lin Ying held the painting in a daze and said, "I'll give it to you." ”

The young man of Chu smiled warmly and said to Lin Ying: "You have such painting skills at a young age, and in Kyushu, after King Qi Xiao, there is finally another person with outstanding painting skills." Today, your paintings sell for three or five taels of silver, and maybe ten or twenty years from now, this will be a priceless treasure that money can't buy. If you use money to measure your paintings, it is unconventional, why don't I treat you to a meal, and we will be friends from now on. ”

Lin Ying nodded, took the calligraphy and painting stall, and walked away with the young man of the Chu Kingdom and his red-haired fox, leaving the bamboo forest and the three young men gritting their teeth in place.

Suddenly one of the people in the crowd said to the three young men of the bamboo forest: "Three young masters, that person just now, I'm afraid he can't be provoked." ”

Brother Fan hatefully asked, "Who is he?" ”

The man replied, "According to my guess, the Chu people's costume and a red fox may be what our Jianghu people call 'jade-faced foxes'...... Learn all the martial arts classics of the Kyushu countries...... At the age of ten, he swept away the ...... of the Xiling bandits and road rage in the Xiling of Shu King Zhao's top list of Kyushu beauties ......"

Brother Fan grabbed the collar of the talkative man and asked loudly, "Don't talk nonsense, what's his name?" ”

"Zhuge calmly."

Zhuge calmly picked up the red-haired little fox, stroked its fur, and asked Lin Ying: "We first came to Fanjing, and I don't know where the restaurant is delicious." Little brother, what do you want to eat? ”

Lin Ying's brother in front of him looked very dazzling, and he couldn't help but say a little shyly: "Since my brother has just come to Fanjing, why don't you go to the restaurant opened by my family, and I'll have a treat." ”

Zhuge smiled calmly: "Okay, but I must pay for the wine and food." ”

Lin Ying didn't want to talk about who pays, so she asked, "What does that brother's little fox like to eat?" ”

Zhuge said calmly: "It eats everything." I love to eat, and it especially loves to eat. ”

Lin Ying smiled and asked, "What's my brother's name?" ”

Zhuge calmly said: "My surname is Zhuge again, and my name is Congrong." ”

Lin Ying stopped suddenly, her eyes widened, and said, "Are you ...... You are...... Brother Rong? ”

Zhuge calmly stopped, and looked at the young man Chen Guo who suddenly called him like this in puzzlement.

Lin Ying was so happy that she didn't even realize that the calligraphy and painting she was holding in her arms fell to the ground, but just looked at him with surprise and excitement in her eyes.

Zhuge calmly asked, "Are you ......?" The little fox also blinked at Lin Ying.

Lin Ying said: "I am ......" but suddenly thought: "The Zhuge family is the biggest businessman in the Chu State, and now the Chu State is falling apart, and the Seven Kings are competing for hegemony, I don't know which king the Zhuge family supports?" If he knew my identity, and their Zhuge family didn't support my father as king, would he do anything to me? But he is Brother Rong that I have always admired since I was a child! I can't even recognize him! Lin Ying was very entangled, and said, "I am...... I am also from Chu. I've heard your name since I was a kid...... During the war in Chu, my family and I fled to Chen for refuge......"

Zhuge calmly watched Lin Ying suddenly squeak and whine, knowing that he might have something unspeakable, and he didn't force it, put down the little fox, and said, "Where is your restaurant?" Lead the way! ”

Lin Ying thought of her mother's surname Su, so she said, "My name is Xiao Su." ”

The two came to the restaurant, found a place to sit down, and the little fox jumped on Zhuge Congrong's lap and fell asleep. The restaurant is doing good business today, and Su Qin and Yan Xiao are busy. Lin Ying asked Su Qin: "Mother, where is Sister Shu'er?" Let her come and see the little fox, she will definitely like it. ”

Su Qin said: "Your sister went to the black market to pour spices, and I don't know when I will come back." Su Qin glanced at the red-haired fox who was sleeping soundly, and exclaimed: "This fox is really eccentric, and he is not afraid of people!" Then he hurriedly said to the beautiful young man dressed in Chu State costume: "Auntie will go and get you some food first!" So he turned and walked away.

Zhuge calmly stroked the fox fur, dragged his cheeks and said helplessly: "Xiao Su, why do you all like to see this bad fox first instead of me, the big living person who topped the list of beauties in Kyushu?" ”

Lin Ying smiled apologetically: "Probably this fox is a little rarer." ”

Zhuge calmly hid his face and sighed: "Probably the old man of Zhao Wang, who wrote various lists in Kyushu, actually fell in love with me, the fox, so he inexplicably wrote me, a man, into the 'beauty list'." ”
