Chapter 3 And for a glass of drunkenness

The next morning, before the dawn, Ruoyan woke up, and Lian'er was outside the house and heard Ruoyan get up and hurriedly entered the house to wait.

Ruoyan put on clothes and changed into beaded shoes, and her curly figure with clean and delicate makeup was thrilling.

Lian'er handed over the bronze mirror in a panic.

Ruoyan looked at the frightened Lian'er and smiled lightly and picked up Lian'er's chin: "Why are you still so afraid of me."

"The slave knows what is wrong."

Ruoyan withdrew his hand and smiled: "What's wrong with you, just take me to see Luo Hansheng, I have something to look for him."

"Yes." Lian'er picked up Ruoyan and walked along the path towards Luo Hansheng's bedroom.

Luo Hansheng also got up very early, and he was changing his clothes when Ruoyan entered the house.

"Why do you wake up so early?" Luo Hansheng looked at Ruoyan who walked in and asked.

Ruoyan smiled, "This is the Shangsi Festival, I want to go out for a walk."

Luo Hansheng pondered for a moment and finally responded: "Then I'll let Xiao Wu go with you."

"Then Xiangye agreed?"

Luo Hansheng bowed his head, rubbed the top of Ruoyan's hair, and smiled dotingly: "Have fun."

Ruoyan got Luo Hansheng's promise and was about to go out with Lian'er, but Luo Hansheng stopped her and smiled helplessly: "I'll go after breakfast here."

Ruoyan retracted his steps to go out, a little reluctant. But I still stayed for breakfast.

After the two finished breakfast, Luo Hansheng went to the court. Ruoyan took Xiao Wu and Lian'er to Qujiang for a trip.

There are many people in the suburbs, Ruoyan is dressed in white clothes, elegant and clean, and her soft figure reveals an extraordinary temperament, which is particularly outstanding among many girls.

During the Shangsi Festival, there are always literati and ink writers feasting and drinking on the edge of the Qujiang River, and if Yan looks interesting, he will go up to watch. Xiao Wu couldn't stop it, just as the wine plate stopped in front of a purple-shirted boy.

The purple-shirted boy smiled lightly and said: "Since Qu Shui is intentional, then Xiao will be ugly." As he spoke, he chanted, "The silk grass knots and the lanterns bloom in spring, and the flowing fire flies and the moon is like smoke." By asking where the aroma of wine comes from, the peach blossoms are deep in taste. ”

"The word Mianmian is not used well, it would be more beautiful if it was replaced with lingering artistic conception." Ruoyan said.

The purple-shirted boy was slightly stunned, got up and saluted Ruoyan and asked, "The girl also has a study of poetry?"

Ruoyan said humbly: "I know a little bit about it."

The purple-shirted boy pursed his lips and took the liberty of asking, "In Xia Xiaoyi, dare to ask the girl's name?"

"The little woman is beautiful."

Xiao Yi saw Xiao Wu behind Ruoyan, and was a little surprised: "The girl is from the Prime Minister's Mansion?" Although I often go to Hansheng, I have never seen a girl. ”

Xiao Wu saluted Xiao Yi and replied: "Miss is the younger sister that Xiangye just found, she just passed the house the day before yesterday, and Xiao Gongzi has never seen it."

Xiao Yi suddenly realized, smiled heartily and bowed to Ruoyan: "It turned out to be Han Sheng's sister, under Xiao Yi, polite."

Xiao Wu introduced to Ruoyan: "This is the eldest son of the Ministry of Rites, and he is a confidant with Xiangye."

Ruoyan blessed her body and saluted Xiao Yi: "Ruoyan has seen Xiao Gongzi."

Xiao Yi looked at the beautiful woman in front of him and invited: "Today's Qushui Liuzhen is a rare good interest, if the girl has a little study of poetry, why don't you drink with us?"

Several sons of the family present also got up and invited: "What Brother Xiao said is, I wonder if the girl can appreciate her face?"

Ruoyan couldn't shirk it, so she had to respond: "Since you are warmly invited, Ruoyan is disrespectful."

As soon as Ruoyan sat down, the wine plate stopped in front of her. She had no choice but to pick up the wine glass and smiled helplessly: "If Yan is a class leader this time, please don't dislike it." After a glass of wine, she got up and chanted: "The long wind breaks through the sky and thousands of sails, and the wind and snow are desolate. The red clothes sang Wu Nong's language, and Zihao wrote a thousand hearts. only sighs that the gray hair does not grow old, and the fetus dies before the heart dies. Tears fell a few times, and the sea vows were frivolous. ”

Everyone in the audience sang well. A son of a family got up and saluted Ruoyan and asked, "The girl is really good at writing, I don't know who the teacher is?"

Ruoyan only accepted the teaching when the Yun family was still in her childhood, and she had only read some books and jokes in the past ten years, and she was slightly embarrassed when she heard this question, and only said: "Ruoyan has no teacher, so she relies on her own study."

"Let's not mention this for the time being, if Miss Yan's poem seems to be the love of male and female childhood sweethearts, but it contains resentment, I don't know if what Xiao said is right?" Xiao Yi asked.

Ruoyan smiled reluctantly, but he didn't expect the resentment in his poem to be seen by Xiao Yi, and covered it up: "There is no resentment, but it's just a casual play according to the excerpts."

"The girl is better than me in poetry for fun. If you take it seriously, I am afraid that the only one who can beat the girl is today's Xiangye. Wang Han, the son of the soldier of the military department, arched his hand.

"I can hear people talking about me." Suddenly, a warm male voice sounded.

Everyone looked at the voice, it was Luo Hansheng, the minister of state who had just mentioned.

Luo Hansheng stood under the tree by the Qujiang River in a black robe, looking at Ruoyan with a smile. Everyone hurriedly got up and saluted: "I've seen Xiangye."

Xiao Yi also stood up and greeted, "Brother Luo."

Luo Hansheng said hello, he walked straight to Ruoyan, and rubbed her hair with a smile: "I just went down to the court, and the next person said that you came to Qujiang, so I will come and take a look."

"Brother Luo doesn't know, Ruoyan is my one-word master." Xiao Yi said with a smile.

Luo Hansheng looked at Xiao Yi: "How do you say this?"

Without waiting for Xiao Yi to speak, Ruoyan said with a smile: "It's just that I changed one word in the poem written by Xiao Gongzi."

"Miss Ruoyan's word can be changed wonderfully." Xiao Yi said with a smile.

"Really?" Luo Hansheng said with a smile, "It turns out that Yan'er is still a talented woman, but I don't know." ”

"There are many things that Xiangye doesn't know." Ruoyan smiled lightly.

"Today coincides with Shangsi, can Brother Luo go to the Biyun Building in Beijing to have a few drinks?" Xiao Yi raised an eyebrow.

Luo Hansheng smiled: "But it's disrespectful."

Xiao Yi smiled heartily: "Then if you don't get drunk with Brother Luo today, you won't return!" Why don't you go together? ”

Ruoyan nodded slightly.

Biyunlou is a famous wine shop in Beijing, its rules are also strange, only sell 50 jars of wine every day, only receive nobles, and ordinary people can not enter even if they have money.

Ruoyan was led by Luo Hansheng and went straight to the private room on the second floor. Xiao Yi shouted to the shopkeeper while going upstairs: "Today, Xiangye has a treat, Xiao Er, bring all the good wine."

Luo Hansheng looked at Xiao Yi and shook his head, and said helplessly: "You! When did I say I was going to have a treat? ”

Xiao Yi said with a smile: "This is your highest official position, who will invite you if you don't invite you?"

Ruoyan covered his mouth and smiled: "Xiao Gongzi's words are exact, then today's Xiangye will treat you."

Luo Hansheng saw that Ruoyan also said so, so he had to accept it, and ordered a table of good dishes to the store.

After Xiao Er went down, Xiao Yi asked Luo Hansheng: "Recently, there has been a flood in Hebei, Brother Luo is not worried, how is the situation?"

Luo Hansheng shook his head: "Most of the refugees fled to other places, even if they opened canals to divert water, there were not enough manpower, and now it is very tricky."

Ruoyan frowned slightly when she saw the two of them talking about business, and concentrated on drinking the tea in the cup.

Luo Hansheng took a sip of tea and continued: "It is difficult for the government to say how much has been embezzled under the relief food of the refugees, and if it is not dealt with in time, I am afraid that the refugees will become a mob."

Ruoyan lowered her head, no wonder Luo Hansheng looked sad at dinner yesterday, the government was annoyed that she still choked him like that, and she felt a little guilty in her heart, but when she remembered that Luo Hansheng was her enemy, that guilt disappeared again.

Xiao Yi picked up the teacup and chuckled: "In such a desperate situation, Brother Luo can still sit here with me and Ruoyan to drink tea and drink leisurely?"

"It's rare to have a good spring, if you don't enjoy it in time, won't you live up to it? The affairs of the government can be put aside a little in this spring. Luo Hansheng said with a smile.

"Guest, the wine is coming!" The shopkeeper came in and put down two jars of good wine and flattered Luo Hansheng and Xiao Yi: "Xiangye is slow to use, Xiao Gongzi is slow to use."

Ruoyan saw that the shopkeeper remembered that when he was a child, he often came to Biyunlou with his father to eat a squirrel fish, and the shopkeeper at that time was also so flattering to his father.

She put down the teacup and asked Luo Hansheng, "Can you order food?"

Luo Hansheng looked at her dotingly and said with a smile: "I know that you love to eat this squirrel fish, it's better early."

Ruoyan bowed his head and continued to drink tea with his head down.

Xiao Yi looked between the two and said with a smile: "Han Sheng, you haven't introduced Miss Ruoyan to me yet."

Luo Hansheng patted the mud seal of the wine jar and paused, then smiled and said: "Yan'er is my distant sister, and now she has only found her, you don't want to beat her idea."

Is it just my sister? Ruoyan just drank tea and didn't say anything.

Luo Hansheng poured a full glass of wine and handed it to Xiao Yi: "Come, drink!"

Xiao Yi took the wine glass and chuckled, "Brother Luo, is this using wine to gag my mouth?"

Luo Hansheng smiled helplessly: "Who can stop your mouth?"

Xiao Yi laughed: "Brother Luo still knows my temperament!"

Xiao Er brought up the squirrel fish, Ruoyan moved his chopsticks and tasted it and hooked the corners of his lips: "I don't know if it's stained with Xiangye's light, the chef makes the dishes particularly delicious."

"Xiangye is here, can those cooks not care?" Xiao Yi picked up his wine glass and smiled.

After the wine and dinner were over, Xiao Yi said goodbye to Luo Hansheng and Ruoyan and went home.

Biyun Tower is not far from the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Ruoyan followed Luo Hansheng and slowly paced back.

Xiao Wu was waiting for the two of them at the gate of the mansion, and Ruoyan went back to Huayan Courtyard without saying a word after entering the door.

Luo Hansheng looked at her back and sighed helplessly.

"Xiangye, if Miss Ruoyan is afraid that she is still annoyed by what you did back then, but after a long time, she will definitely be deeply moved by Xiangye's affection. Xiangye doesn't need to be sad. Xiao Wu stepped forward to persuade.

"You don't know Yan'er's temper. I still remember that when a cousin who was next to her in the Yun family visited with her parents, he accidentally trampled on a rabbit she raised. So that cousin was so neat by her that he never even entered the door of the Yun family again. ”

"Xiangye may be different?"

Luo Hansheng smiled bitterly: "What difference can I make?" If it weren't for the convenience of seeking revenge against me, she wouldn't even be able to stay here. ”

Xiao Wu knew that he was speechless and shut up.

Luo Hansheng sighed and said, "That's it, I have to go to the court tomorrow, let's rest early." ”
