Chapter 51: The Jade-Faced Girl
In Luohe City, the three of them walked slowly.
The two horses beside him, in addition to the crossbowman's foolishness, there is also the one that Brother Xiao rode when he came out of the chivalrous inn.
At this moment, he is led by the flute.
In the city, in a pavilion, there are dozens of rouge women beside the short swordsman, who are constantly offering affection to him.
The short swordsman was sullen, not at all the way he usually looked like he would shine in his eyes when he saw a woman.
Remembering that he got on the little woman's thief ship last night, he thought that he would be a lonely and unbearable young woman from a good family, and the two of them might be able to do something, but they turned out to be a scheming femme fatale.
If you have to let yourself write a letter to report peace, just write it, just think of it as a little woman's thoughtfulness, out of kindness, I didn't think about it and listened to the sweet words and wrote a few lines randomly, and even the word couldn't write the due "temperament and style", at most the smiling face was still eye-catching.
It's not the beauty who urges me, but then I accidentally drank a glass of water and wine handed over, thinking that it was really going to take the moon before the moon, and after drinking, I didn't know what his mother was going to do.
Now that I woke up, I really told the little woman that she had already arrived at the place where she was looking for water in Luohe City.
But the more I think about it, the more aggrieved I feel, Lao Tzu is such a handsome and beautiful man, didn't you a little widow have no idea, and are willing to give me to a group of Qinglou women like this.
The mind of the short swordsman is still the same as always, which makes many people "bow to the wind".
He was surrounded by many women at the moment, but he was not excited at all, and the wine in his mouth felt lighter than clear water.
The door was suddenly opened, and it was the handsome little lady on the boat last night, who was now dressed in a plain white dress, with a slight red powder on her cheeks, which was particularly bright and moving.
When many women saw the little woman, they hurriedly retreated.
The Gladius was about to ask something.
Behind the little woman came a jade-faced little student.
The little woman bent slightly, stepped aside, and then went out of the room and closed the door.
The jade-faced Xiaosheng held a folding fan in his hand, smiled at the short swordsman, and arched his hand: "Xiao Daxia, Xiaosheng Liu Yucheng, the son-in-law of the Bai family in Zhen'an, I am here to apologize, I have no choice but to act before, and I hope Xiao Daxia will not take it to heart." ”
When Brother Xiao heard this, he was first shocked, Zhen'an Bai's family is his grandfather's family, this person claims to be the son-in-law of the Bai family, so which uncle should be his uncle's uncle, and hurriedly asked: "Who is your father-in-law?" Who is my aunt? Why did you take me captive? ”
The jade-faced Xiaosheng sat next to Brother Xiao and said with a smile: "Father-in-law Baihe, Mrs. Bai Yunxin, as for using this means to invite your cousin to come, it is because the people in the capital have a trust, and you want to make friends with a few people who will walk with you through your cousin's hand..."
Liu Yucheng said half of it.
Brother Xiao slammed the wine glass on the table and said angrily: "Nonsense! Don't you know that Xiao Mou has already been incompatible with that uncle Baihe, and Bai Yunxin has only met a few times, and you treat me Xiao Xiangfei as shit when I do this kind of dirty thing with my hands? ”
There was a trace of imperceptible coldness in the eyes of the jade-faced Xiaosheng, and he still smiled: "What is this talking about, cousin, my father-in-law is at odds with you, of course I know, but my lady has always regarded you as a hero in her heart, and she always followed you as a little tail when she was young. ”
When Brother Xiao heard that he had been exposed, half of his anger disappeared, indeed this Bai Yunxin regarded her as his own sister at the beginning, but now he hasn't seen her for more than ten years, and he is actually married to a wife.
Brother Xiao raised his wine glass and took a sip of wine, and a woman came in outside the door, it was Bai Yunxin in the mouth of the jade-faced Xiaosheng.
When the woman saw Brother Xiao, her eyes suddenly burst into tears, and her voice trembled, "Third cousin, it's really you." ”
After the woman finished speaking, she was already crying.
Brother Xiao's face was also a little sad, and he helped the woman sit down with the jade-faced Xiaosheng.
Then he smiled: "The little fart girl at the beginning, now she is slim, and she is married to a handsome young man, it doesn't matter if she cries in front of her husband, she cries in front of your third cousin, what kind of system does it become." ”
The woman stopped crying and smiled brightly.
Brother Xiao looked at the jade-faced Xiaosheng and said: "Boy, today I will look at the face of my heart, don't worry too much about you, and say what to do next..." ”
The jade-faced Xiaosheng saw that the short swordsman in front of him was also a bold person, although what he said was very cheesy, but it must be something he cared about very much, nodded and smiled: "What the third cousin said is very true, I didn't think about it before, and I hope the third cousin understands, after all, the people in the capital are prominent, and the younger brother is just forced, and he doesn't dare to offend those powerful people, so he made this decision just for his own life." ”
Brother Xiao listened and nodded, there were some things he didn't want to ask in detail, so he took this into account, although he was usually very aggressive, but when it came to some things, he still had to use his brain.
Bai Yunxin poured a glass of wine for the two.
The jade-faced Xiaosheng continued: "Actually, this matter is relatively simple, that is, let the third cousin meet a few people who are traveling with him to come over and talk, and just meet the last one, and then the younger brother will show the people above according to the words of the conversation." ”
Brother Xiao was suspicious, and put down the wine glass raised in the air again, "It's as simple as that, and even the person behind it doesn't show up?" ”
The jade-faced Xiaosheng raised his wine glass and smiled at Brother Xiao, the two of them drank this glass of wine, and this matter was done.
In the city, when the three crossbowmen were about to enter an inn, a little brother ran to the three of them out of breath.
After seeing the three of them, the little brother took a breath and said, "There is a hero named Xiao Xiangfei, please invite the three of you to the Yuhu Tower to drink and admire the moon." ”
The crossbowman smiled and thanked, "Trouble little brother wait a minute, we will put the horses and bags next to us in the inn, and we will go with you." ”
The little brother was busy with anxiety, "This little real person, Xiao Daxia has already arranged it for you, just go with me." ”
The crossbow man looked at the old man Murong and Xiao Di beside him, and when he saw the two nodding, the three of them led their horses and followed the little brother.
On the Yuhu Tower, the little brother led the horses for the three of them, and a woman twisted her thin waist and led the three of them in.
When she entered the room where Brother Xiao was, the woman saw the person at the table and hurriedly retreated.
And that Bai Yunxin had already talked to Brother Xiao about his hometown before and left.
When the crossbowman entered the door, he noticed the jade-faced boy at a glance, and the other party seemed to have noticed him as well.
The two looked at each other, and the jade-faced Xiaosheng smiled at him.
The crossbowman laughed back.
Brother Xiao asked the three of them to sit down, and said with a smile: "This is Liu Yucheng, the grandson-in-law of my grandfather's family, I met by chance at the ferry port of the three counties last night, and it happened that he was going to Luohe City at night, and I saw that I was not close to you, so I asked someone to send a letter and came to Luohe City with him." ”
After Brother Xiao's introduction, the jade-faced Xiaosheng got up and bowed to the three of them, "Xiaosheng Liu Yucheng has seen Mr. Murong, Brother Xiaodi, and the little real person with a crossbow. ”
The three of them got up and reported their own doors, as for which was true and which was false, they knew in their hearts.
A few people sat down, and Liu Yucheng asked people to serve a table of delicacies and wine.
Liu Yucheng raised his glass and said: "A few people have come here thousands of miles away, no matter the hardships, they are all rare and valuable. ”
Several people drank together, and then Liu Yucheng continued: "I heard the third cousin say that a few rare heroes in the rivers and lakes, I don't know if Xiaosheng can be lucky enough to be friends with the three." ”
Liu Yucheng then smiled, "Of course, the kind of heart-to-heart is the best." ”
Brother Xiao was on the side, and strangely didn't open his mouth to help speak.
The crossbowman was filled with doubts.
Old man Murong smiled and picked up the celadon wine jug on the table, took a sip, and said, "Even if you travel the rivers and lakes and make good friends, why not." ”
After speaking, the old man Murong glanced at Liu Yucheng, as if he had an inquiry, and seemed to have a meaning.
Xiao Di said on the side: "Liu Gongzi is the dragon and phoenix among people, I'm afraid he can't look down on me and other vulgar people in the rivers and lakes." ”
Liu Yucheng's face changed slightly, but he tried his best to pretend to smile, "Brother Xiao said that he laughed, Xiaosheng is just a little better than others, but he never looks down on anyone, just like Mr. Murong said, traveling in the rivers and lakes, it is better to have one more friend than one more enemy." ”
Xiao Di nodded.
The crossbowman looked at the strange atmosphere in the banquet and said with a smile: "Liu Gongzi treats each other so frankly, how can we not understand the sophistication of human feelings, come to Xiaodao to pay tribute to Liu Gongzi." ”
The crossbowman said as the glass was handed to the table.
When Liu Yucheng heard the Taoist say something to solve the situation, he smiled and clashed glasses with him to drink.
Seeing this, Brother Xiao couldn't help it, and said: "Look at you two old liars, a one-armed weirdo, you usually do a little bit of it, and now Lao Tzu personally saves the game and introduces my good son to know you, is it shameless." ”
When Brother Xiao said this, his voice was very loud, but it was not the kind of angry scolding, but it seemed that he deliberately said it to someone.
Old man Murong took a sip of wine from the wine jug and did not reply.
Xiao Di looked at Liu Yucheng who was smiling, picked up the wine glass on the table, drank it all, and said: "Old man, it seems that there are still a few games in the chess game that have not been decided, so it is better to find a secluded place and discuss the game again, you see how it goes." ”
When the old man Murong heard this, the wine jug in his hand stopped, "You kid insists on fighting with the old man and me, if you don't give up a few chess games, you can still shout now, or you will be convinced tonight." ”
After the two finished speaking, they went out of the room, and by the way, they also took the only two jugs of wine on the table.
The crossbowman and Liu Yucheng smiled awkwardly.
Brother Xiao's face was as black as carbon.
Liu Yucheng relieved the embarrassment, let people serve a few more pots of wine, and after thanking Brother Xiao and the crossbowman, he chatted with the crossbowman.
Liu Yucheng asked with a smile: "Xiao Zhenren, where are you going with my third cousin on this trip?" ”
The crossbowman poured a glass of wine for Brother Xiao, who was having an unhappy expression on his face, and replied: "Let's go, let's go to Nanyun Capital City first, and take a look at the style of Xindu City, also to go to an acquaintance's appointment."
Liu Yucheng got up and turned to the wine glass handed over by the crossbowman, "Then Xiao Zhenren didn't think about finding something to do in the capital, and now Yan Li is short of talents." ”
The crossbowman put the wine jug on the table, sat down, and said: "I didn't have such a plan, maybe it was because Taoism was deeply rooted, so I didn't have the interest that ordinary people should have in some things of power and wealth." ”
When Liu Yucheng heard the Taoist's answer, he had some bottom in his heart, and although his words were calm, he could see that he was speaking from his heart.
Liu Yucheng continued: "There is something that Xiao Sheng has never figured out, I don't know if Xiao Zhenren can solve my doubts. ”
The crossbow man replied: "I can't talk about solving doubts, but Liu Gongzi can say it and listen to it, if Xiaodao has any ideas, he will definitely know everything." ”
Liu Yucheng was overjoyed, "Why do you say that there are heroic spirits in this world who don't report it, it's just that the time has not yet come." ”
The crossbow man thought about it for a long time, and always felt that this question was a bit unexpected, but it was not good to ask too much, so he had to say: "According to the path, this question is actually no different from not knowing the answer for ordinary people, but for some people who have done such things, it should only be a mental effect. ”
Liu Yucheng nodded, and then toasted, "What Xiao Zhenren said, Xiao Sheng also thought so in his heart, but he was never that kind of person, so he never talked to anyone, and now it seems that you and I are heroes." ”
After speaking, Liu Yucheng did it first as a respect.
On the side, Brother Xiao couldn't sit still, so he casually found a reason to go out of the room, as for what to do, God knows, the earth knows, he knows it himself, and the crossbow man also knows.
Liu Yucheng began to talk to the crossbowman about some other things.
It has been replaced by some small things on the rivers and lakes, essays in the market...
But there was no such thing as questioning.
On the top of the Jade Lake next to the Jade Lake Tower, there is a viewing pavilion.
The old man and the one-armed knight are playing against each other on the chessboard.
Tonight, the old man holds the white son, and the one-armed knight holds the black son.
The old man seemed to have taken a wrong step, and shouted in his mouth: "Look, boy, there is a yellow flower girl on the lake. ”
When the one-armed knight heard this, he looked over, but found that there were no glowworms even at night, and when he turned his head again, he saw that the old man's hand had retracted.
The one-armed knight looked at the old man with a smile on his face, did not demolish him, and said, "How does the gentleman look at that jade-faced boy?" ”
The old man stared at the chessboard, "The smell of copper can be smelled from afar, I think I am smart, but in fact..."
The old man said that he was halfway down to the chessboard.
The one-armed knight asked again, "Then why don't you give the crossbow boy a reminder?" ”
The old man didn't answer, but asked, "What about you?" ”
The one-armed knight smiled, fell to the kill, and "conceded"
