Text Chapter 7 The Golden Boy and the Jade Girl

Li Xiaoqi was eating and drinking slowly, when suddenly a cannon rang out outside, shaking the floor and trembling, Li Xiaoqi hurriedly put down the chopsticks in his hand, took the handkerchief handed by the chief next to him, wiped his hands, and hurriedly ran to the window.

Far away, the Golden Water Gate slowly pushed open, and the military attachΓ©s of the Forbidden Army on horseback were all young and handsome, all of them were in the same red brocade clothes, with straight backs and high-spirited expressions, and they were walking and dancing with horses, and a pair of pairs came out of the Golden Water Gate, and hundreds of pairs came out, Mr. Lin looked at it silently, and sighed softly: "It's too much, this is the etiquette of the crown prince and concubine." ”

Li Xiaoqi looked carefully, really didn't see where it was, followed by the brocade guards, is a pair of guards wearing small golden flower robes, hairpins, holding cyan canopies, followed by the guards, is a lifting of the dowry of the eaves of the fine paintings, each eaves by four wearing purple shirts, wearing curly feet and hats of the heavenly military attachΓ©s, the eaves according to the rules of the inner room bedding, the four treasures of the study, antique ornaments, court clothes crown belt, coral pearls and jade, all kinds of β€’β€’β€’β€’β€’β€’, in the sunset, bright trance eyes.

Li Xiaoyi's eyes widened, full of saliva looking at the dowry eaves that flowed like I don't know how many lifts, and what came out behind the dowry eaves were hundreds of palace concubines with beaded hair, wearing exactly the same red Luo pin gold robe and cloak of the same color.

After the palace concubine, it was Su Zicheng, the groom who was wearing a rich silk robe with a red background and sitting on a horse, and the crowd burst into cheers and cheers.

The groom was smiling, riding on the horse uprightly, out of the Jinshui Gate, on the Jinshui Bridge, down the Jinshui Bridge, and approached the Yicheng Tower, Li Xiaoqi looked at the groom sitting on the horse in amazement, isn't this the young man who bought her two plates of Ejiao jujube with two taels of silver, and made her dream several times!

Li Xiaoqi blinked his eyes twice, and looked at the young man riding on the horse with a smile on his face in a little daze, and he had inexplicable mixed feelings in his heart, it turned out that this was the prince and princess who was right at home! Such a young man who is as gentle as jade is someone else's groom! The dazzling prosperity of the street and the jade boy on the horse are extremely dazzling, indicating her sourness and humility.

"I actually used Fengyu! It's too much! Mr. Lin said with some indignation, Zhijing shook the pu fan, was silent for a moment, turned his head to look at Mr. Lin and persuaded: "No matter how prosperous it is, it is just a passing cloud, and you are in love again." ”

"Hmm." Mr. Lin turned around and asked for a cup of tea, drinking it slowly, while continuing to watch the excitement, Li Xiaoqi came to his senses, and laughed a little, where did he β€’β€’β€’β€’β€’β€’ want to go! Such a noble son, separated from her by the Milky Way, will never be able to become her. Li Xiaoqi subconsciously shook his head, crossed Su Zicheng, and looked at the phoenix behind him, this phoenix was the size of a small house, six guards wearing red brocade clothes on the left and right were carrying, and the red sapphire embedded in the middle of the flowers reflected the bright light in the afterglow of the sunset.

Li Xiaoqi couldn't see the princess Funing in Fengyu clearly, only saw a trance of light flashing in Fengyu, Princess Funing is the eldest daughter of Wu Guifei, Wu Guifei is known for her beauty, no matter how bad this Funing princess is, it is not far behind, naturally she is also a beauty, alas, this is the proud daughter of the sky, this is the right person, a talented woman.

After Fengyu, there were countless palace attendants holding all kinds of furnishings, Mr. Lin and Zhijing turned back to the table and sat down, the servant re-brewed tea, Li Xiaoqi looked at it for a while, and then turned back to sit down and drink tea, Zhijing looked at Li Xiaoyi, who poked his head and looked for it in the heart of the table full of food and snacks, and asked with a smile: "It's the first time I've seen such a luxury and liveliness, right?" ”

"Hmm!" Li Xiaoqi picked out the roasted clams on a plate, and promised with a smile: "It's really beautiful!" Those are all the dowries of Princess Funing? ”

"Well, except for that Fengyu."

"Even those people?"

"Hmm." Li Xiaoqi opened his eyes wide, exclaimed exaggeratedly twice, buried his head in eating roasted clams, Mr. Lin stared at Li Xiaoqi who was eating sweetly for a while, turned his head to look at Zhijing and sighed: "The people of this city only know to see this bustling and lively, but they don't know the danger hidden in this bustle!" ”

"Can you see the danger in the prosperity that Mr. said?" Zhijing didn't answer Mr. Lin's words, but looked at Li Xiaoyi, and asked with a smile, Li Xiaoqi stopped his chopsticks, looked at Zhijing, and then turned his head to look at Mr. Lin, carefully turned around a few times, and replied cautiously: "Didn't Mr. just say that the two brothers in Beiping are ambitious, and the danger that Mr. is worried about must be that Beiping is going to swallow Wu." ”

"Well, that's right, aren't you worried?" Zhijing leaned forward and asked with interest in his eyes, Li Xiaoqi shook his head,

"What's there to worry about, but change an emperor, I don't know the emperor now, and I still don't know another emperor, anyway, I don't know him, whoever he is the emperor will be, besides," Li Xiaoqi cautiously glanced at Mr. Lin, whose brows were tightly twisted, and then said: "Now that Wu and Beiping are in-laws, they are in-laws, so they should naturally fight others together, what is there to worry about." ”

Zhijing leaned back, laughed, laughed so much that the flesh on her chest trembled, and pointed at Mr. Lin with a pu fan: "Did you hear that?" I told you, people in the market, who cares who is the emperor? The people of Li are just asking for a stable life! If you want to drive some too, come with me to southern Sichuan. ”

Mr. Lin had a gloomy face and didn't speak for a long time, Li Xiaoqi looked at the two of them back and forth carefully, thought about it, put down the chopsticks and stood up, and said goodbye with a smile: "Thank you two gentlemen, I won't bother Mr. anymore." ”

"Well, be careful on the road." Mr. Lin didn't speak with a cold face, Zhijing smiled and explained to Li Xiaoyi, Li Xiaoqi agreed crisply, exited the private room, jumped down the stairs, and along the street, he went to Changsheng Grain Store to find the eldest brother and Erhuai first, this scene was lively, and it was so blocked that I could see it, forget it, I still want to make myself happy and happy, put on the lights tonight, just pull the eldest brother, Erhuai and Shui Sheng to have a good time all night, first go to Sun Ji fried crab noodles to eat a bowl of noodles, and then go to watch the lights for a good night! When I thought of Sun Ji's fried crab noodles, Li Xiaoqi was in a good mood, and his saliva was about to flow out, the live crabs were fried and cooked, and the noodles were full of gluten, and the eyebrows were fresh!

Li Xiaoqi pestered his eldest brother Li Zongliang, to eat Sun Ji fried crab noodles, and then went to see the lights after eating noodles, Li Zongliang calculated the account, although he was very reluctant to eat two hundred big money for four people in one meal, but he couldn't bear to let Li Xiaoqi be disappointed and sad, this 'no' word can't be said! had to agree painfully, and the three of them took Wei Shuisheng, ate noodles together, and looked for a lively place to watch the lights.

When the Lantern Festival was put on this year, a few people had just arrived in Taiping Mansion for a few days, there was no food and clothing, Li Xiaoqi's legs didn't know if they could be good, and no one had the heart to look at any lights.

In the distance of the music shed is constantly playing festive tunes, around the music shed hanging all kinds of opera characters walking lanterns, the left and right sides of the music shed with a long pole several feet high to carry a string of flowers into the shape of a variety of flowers, take a good omen of flowers blooming wealth.

After playing for most of the day, Li Xiaoqi had already thrown away the depression and unhappiness of watching the excitement in the morning, and excitedly pulled Li Zongliang to squeeze into the lantern group to see the stories depicted on the lanterns, Li Xiaoqi has an unusual enthusiasm for the market opera, in addition to following Wei Shuisheng to read books in the Zhu family bookstore, these market operas are the best way for her to understand this world, and the explicit and unspoken rules of this world.

Li Xiaoqi looked at the characters on the lamp, and asked Li Zongliang and Wei Shuisheng one by one, who is this, what kind of story is there, which dynasty is the person, is there really one, or is it a legend, Li Zongliang and Wei Shuisheng often open their mouths, Li Erhuai couldn't answer a sentence in ten sentences, and muttered in a low voice behind him: "Just look at the lamp and ask what those useless people are doing?" This little guy inquired so clearly, he wants to take the top prize? You can't pass the test either! ”

Li Xiaoqi turned around and stepped on Li Erhuai's feet fiercely, Li Erhuai didn't frown, and continued to mutter: "I don't have any strength at all, and it doesn't hurt to step on it, I just brushed these shoes yesterday, and I just wore them today, and I made you step on them dirty again." ”

Li Xiaoqi glanced at him, turned around, held Li Zongliang with one hand, and Wei Shuisheng with the other, and continued to stroll forward.

The four of them turned a corner, and were about to turn to the left, when a sturdy middle-aged man about thirty years old stretched out his hand to stop the four of them, with a smile on his face, and said in a low voice: "A few little brothers, please stay, my master is inside, please a few little brothers go elsewhere first, and then come to this place in a while, okay?" ”

Li Zongliang and Wei Shuisheng glanced at each other, pushed Li Erhuai, took half a step back, responded with a smile, turned around and turned to the right, Li Xiaoqi listened to the middle-aged man's very clear northern accent, his heart moved slightly, and he walked ten steps, Li Xiaoqi suddenly paused, she really wanted to take another look at that handsome guy, it would be good to feast her eyes, Li Xiaoqi thought, stretched out his hand and pulled Li Zongliang, held his feet, leaned into his ear, and whispered: "Maybe it's Princess Funing and the groom in the north!" ”

"How can it be such a coincidence?"

"Let's go slowly, take a look, maybe it is, the groom in the north, I met once, last time he went to Changfeng Building for dinner, and bought my Ejiao dates, two plates of dates, and gave me two taels of silver! Let's see, I want to see what the princess looks like! ”

Li Zongliang paused helplessly, the four of them went around in a circle, and then turned to the place where they were stopped, just walked a few steps, and saw a man and a woman coming side by side not far away, Li Xiaoqi hurriedly pulled Li Zongliang, signaling that he was these two people, and the four of them quietly retreated to the side, letting go of a man and a woman and the guards around them.

Su Licheng was dressed in a moon-white silk robe, tied with a mutton fat jade belt, with his hands behind his back, with a gentle smile on his face, he looked sideways at Princess Funing beside him, and listened attentively to what she said, Princess Funing looked sixteen or seventeen years old, her body was petite and soft, her waist was extremely thin, and her pale yellow skirt was embroidered with folded peonies.
