Chapter 1: Returning
The white-robed young man said goodbye to his teacher, looked back at Qingyu Mountain, where he had lived for five years, thought for a moment, and then patted his horse and left.
After a bumpy journey, I finally returned to my homeland.
The scenery of Yaoyu is the same, but a few years ago, the glorious Luo family, I don't know how many people still remember.
Luo Lingyu's heart was filled with bitterness, and her expression was still as indifferent as ever.
The disaster five years ago was like a pool of icy water, drowning the once delicate and willful Luo Lingyu, and the master gave her a new name: Gu Feiqing.
This return is to wash away the shame of the family and prove that the Luo family did not collude with the enemy country to frame the general of the DPRK and China.
As long as he becomes an important minister of the imperial court, the great task of recovering the Luo family is just around the corner, but before that, Luo Lingyu has to show himself as a man.
Luo Lingyu glanced at the letter sent by the palace and went straight to the Peach Blossom Beauty Pavilion.
When he arrived at the door, Luo Lingyu hesitated to restrain the horse, "This is ......"
"Childe, please inside~" The woman in front of the pavilion with heavy makeup beckoned to her with a smile.
Luo Lingyu frowned and pondered, could it be that the once famous wine shop is now also in the business of selling meat?
Entering the restaurant, Yogi Yuna, who was in charge of hospitality, came.
"This son is so handsome, I don't know what the son needs?"
Luo Lingyu was a little dizzy from the fat powder, and said with a frown: "I'm here to see Miss Qinghong." ”
Yu Ji smiled slightly, "Childe is really good at laughing." How could Miss Qinghong be something you can see when you say you can see it? There are so many beautiful girls in our building that there are ......"
Luo Lingyu straightened her robe with some impatience, took out a jade pendant carved with butterflies from her chest, and reiterated: "I want to see Miss Qinghong." ”
Seeing the token, Yu Ji's face changed, and then she smiled and said, "Forgive Yu Ji for being ignorant, I didn't know that the girl and the other person were you, and you came with me." ”
Entering the cabinet, Gu Feiqing looked at the elegant decoration style in the cabinet, which was very different from the owner's former style.
Yun Heli, who was sitting on the soft couch, was bored eating grapes, and when he saw Luo Lingyu, he didn't greet him, but smiled: "You really dare to come back." ”
Luo Lingyu smiled politely, "The family is ashamed, and I must come back." ”
Yun and Li laughed, with a hint of mockery: "By you? I advise you not to fight the idea of the palace. Your little mess, don't point and pull us on our backs. ”
Luo Lingyu smiled, and didn't want to play this trick with her, so she deliberately opened the topic: "After all these years, has he been good to you?"
"He" refers to King Yan, Chu Qingyan, and Yun and Li are Princess Yan, who is also in charge of the Peach Blossom Pavilion, and her stage name is Qinghong Girl.
Yun Youli's face was a little unnatural, he coughed twice, pouted and said, "Of course." With that, he took a sip of tea.
Luo Lingyu's eyes inadvertently crossed a trace of loss, yes, how could it be bad.
Chu Qingyan is now the world-renowned king of words, only fourteen years old can conquer all directions, won countless feats, and was praised by the first emperor.
At that time, almost all the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty believed that the throne was Chu Qingyan, but they didn't want the always unknown crown prince Chu Anping to be the object of the first emperor's succession.
Recalling Chu Qingyan, Luo Lingyu was a little sad from the bottom of her heart.
When she was young, she also fantasized about being Chu Qingyan's princess, so her father also went to ask for marriage, and the first emperor agreed to this marriage contract, who knew that in just a year, the Luo family was wiped out, and a few months later, Chu Qingyan married the daughter of Yun Shangshu, that is, Yun and Li.
It's a little sad to think about, but it's also a little ridiculous.
That's it, who didn't love a few scumbags when they were young?
After greeting Yun and Li for a while, Luo Lingyu temporarily stayed in the Peach Blossom Beauty Pavilion.
Over the years, the Xiongnu have invaded many times, and the war in Fengyun is very tight, if my father and brothers are still there...... Luo Lingyu took a breath, no, now I can only rely on myself.
Clearing the grievances of the Luo family and reviving Fengyun Country is the wish of her father and brothers, and it is also her wish.
The champion elected in this year's Wuke Palace Examination is likely to be directly included in the list of joining the army, which is a timely opportunity for her.
After living in the Peach Blossom Beauty Pavilion for a few days, there are still three days left to take the martial arts hall exam.
Luo Lingyu was dressed in blue and went to the first gambling house in Yaoyudu, Yinglaixuan. The so-called drunkard does not mean to drink, and Luo Lingyu's purpose in going to the gambling house is naturally not to gamble.
Yinglaixuan is worthy of being the first gambling house in Beijing, and the carvings and wooden furniture in the building are exquisite and elegant.
Luo Lingyu picked a place by the window, ordered some side dishes, and ate alone. Xiaoxuan's window happened to be able to see the early lotus of June outside.
The shouts and voices of gamblers around are the chatters of some chivalrous people, and the content is almost inseparable from the martial arts election three days later.
In Yaoyudu, if you want to hear some news, Yinglaixuan is the perfect location.
"Have you heard? There are only four people who are qualified to participate in the martial arts hall examination this year, Huo Liye, the second son of the Huo family, Xu Meichuan, the eldest son of the Xu family, and Xu Ruocheng, the second son of the Xu family, this is not a small ......."
"Hey, don't sell it, what's the matter?"
"What's the hurry? He's ...... He is the person who is being promoted by the king today, and it is said that he did not even participate in the hospital examination and the township examination......"
"And this kind of thing?!"
"Isn't that it! It is said that this man is tall and big, his eyes are like brass bells, his mouth is so big that he can stuff a scoop, he trembles when he steps on the ground, and he can lift a cow with one hand! ……”
"Poof!" Luo Lingyu squirted a sip of wine into the bowl, "Ahem, cough..."
Looking at the crowd who were talking, they were all dumbfounded and amazed.
Luo Lingyu rubbed her temples, do I look so pompous......
After hearing the news, Luo Lingyu was about to settle the bill and leave, thinking about whether to go to the Huo and Xu families to explore the reality of the two rivals, but was blocked by a tall body.
"This little brother is so good-looking, why don't you have two drinks with me?"
Luo Lingyu wrinkled her brows and raised her eyes to see that she was a handsome and delicate young man in purple. Luo Lingyu raised her eyebrows, touched her cheeks again, and said in her heart, Is this face so successful?
Luo Lingyu once learned from her sister Luo Zhiran the simple method of making a human skin mask, and her craftsmanship was so-so, Xu Meichuan praised her for really not being able to afford it.
"I'm sorry, I have other things to do today, I'm afraid it's not convenient."
Luo Lingyu casually excused herself, wanting to bypass it, but she heard the young man say: "In Xia Xu Meichuan, I will settle the bill for the tea." ”
Xu Meichuan? Isn't it the eldest son of the Xu family who is going to compete with her for the title of martial champion three days later?
Since it is difficult for people to be gracious and take the initiative to do the east, Luo Lingyu is not easy to refuse, she is not interested in the expensive tea money.
"I've reported myself, I don't know what to call my brother?" Xu Meichuan looked at Luo Lingyu, shaking the bamboo fan in his hand to half-cover his delicate face.
Luo Lingyu thought for a while, and said, "Brother Xu called me Zhao Kangcheng." ”
If he knew that she was Gu Feiqing, the one who would win the championship with him in three days, it was estimated that this tea would inevitably be ordered......
After eating and drinking for nothing, Xu Meichuan proposed to gamble on two more, Luo Lingyu really couldn't refuse, so he gambled two, although he had never been to the gambling house before, but his ears were still sensitive, and he could guess the points in the cup by hearing, and finally made a profit of one hundred taels of silver.
