"Brother Fang." Suddenly, someone called Fang Xiao's name. The sound was as if it were nothing, as ethereal as a thin wisp of smoke. It's Tang Yuncao, she will always be so elegant and cowardly, gentle and lovely.

Fang Xiao's complexion reflected the cold moonlight, becoming more and more cold and indifferent, as cold as a cold pool. He leaned over and let out a soft "um". Jian Huaizhen's piano sound had stopped abruptly, and with a "bang", the strings were broken.

"Fang Shaoxia, Miss Tang, I haven't seen you for a long time, are you still used to living in the mansion?" Jian Huaizhen stood up, the white trimmed Ruyi cloud pattern water sleeves were splashed with full moonlight, and when he walked gently, the moonlight trembled slightly, like a curtain of dreams that had not been shattered for thousands of years.

Fang Xiao was a little stunned for a while, and said coldly for a long time: "Thank you for your concern." ”

Jian Huaizhen chuckled lightly, there was a little sadness and loneliness in her smile, she lowered her eyelids, her eyelashes were like long crow wings, and she said quietly: "The night is deep and heavy, let's rest early." With that, he took his leave.

She hugged Yaoqin and only walked a few steps, but heard Fang Xiao say behind her, "I'm sorry for what happened that day." ”

Her body froze slightly, and then she smiled slightly: "What day did Fang Shaoxia say?" But the little girl didn't remember. With that, the robe floated away. Only the west wind behind him was heavy, and Qiu Ju moved lightly, under the shroud of the octagonal glazed lantern, casting miscellaneous shadows and buildings, messy and endless.

Fang Xiao's eyebrows were as sharp as a knife, and the frost was heavy, and he looked more and more arrogant. His eyes were cold, and he looked at Jian Huaizhen's figure that disappeared into the falling flowers of the trees for a long time, and suddenly let out a small and long sigh. The sigh is very thin, but it is enough to turn into a needle that stings the soft heart of a caring person. Fang Yu never noticed that there were layers of tears on the delicate and beautiful face of the timid Bai Yun Tang Yuncao beside him.

Everyone, there is a period of sadness.

******

In the Shangshu Mansion, gloomy clouds shrouded. In the harem, the clouds are also treacherous and unpredictable. After Jian Huaizhen said goodbye to Wang Guifei and returned home, a major event also happened in the harem, that is, the disappearance of the cruel and ruthless little princess Luoxue.

Although Princess Luoxue is mean and unreasonable, she acts recklessly, but she is deeply favored by Zhu Di. She suddenly disappeared from the Forbidden City, no one alive, no body dead. This incident not only alarmed the harem, but also caused Zhu Di to be angry and regretful. After personally interrogating the palace maids and eunuchs who served Luoxue to no avail, he immediately sent Ji Gang to lead three thousand brocade guards to search the entire city of Shuntian Mansion.

The snow falling is also a great blow to Concubine Ru, who has been canonized as Concubine De. She tried her best to calculate that her daughter suddenly disappeared, as if she had evaporated from the world. She was furious and immediately sent Jiang Shaoheng and Ji Qihan out to find someone.

At this time, it happened that Jian Wenying was outstanding in martial arts, so he sought the position of general Wude in the court, and was the first military attache of the fifth grade, and there was a group of soldiers under him, so Jiang Shaoheng asked him to help pay attention to the whereabouts of Princess Luoxue.

this day. Jian Wenying finished training on the school field and was about to return home, but was intercepted by several thousand commanders and captains. It turned out that they specially set up a banquet to entertain him in Jinding Building on Funei Street for He Jianwenying's new official appointment. Their intentions were earnest, and their enthusiasm was difficult, so Jian Wenying had to go with them.

After they were full of wine and food, several Qian generals and captains were a little drunk, so they asked Jian Wenying to accompany them to the Golden Hook Gambling House next to Jinding Building to gamble.

Jian Wenying has adhered to the family motto since she was a child, and she has never entered a gambling house, so she has to resign. But he was laughed at by President Qian and the lieutenants for being pedantic and not heroic enough. Jian Wenying was so agitated that she couldn't care about anything else, so she followed them in.

The Golden Hook Gambling House is the best gambling house in Shuntian Mansion, and the people who come to gamble are either rich or expensive.

In the gambling house, one color uses the Huanghuali Waist Overlord Square Table as the gambling table, and the Huanghuali High Armrest Nanguan Hat Chair is the seat, but it is still difficult to hide the black smoke miasma. The gambling game is mainly based on horse hanging, and is supplemented by six games, canopy, plug opera, playing chess, Go, betting, flower meeting, word treasure and so on. Shuttling through the streets, I often see charming gambling prostitutes wearing red silk skirts, green satin, pinching vests, or big red feather satin gowns.

Jian Wenying frowned, but she was a little helpless, so she had to sit down with the captains to find a gambling table and watch them get drunk and gamble.

After a few rounds, the thousands of captains won and lost. Jian Wenying felt bored and was about to say goodbye, but vaguely heard a sharp voice shouting: "Don't touch me!" Be careful that I let my father raid your home! I'm the Snow Princess. If you offend me, you will offend the emperor, and you will commit the crime of deceiving the king, and you will destroy the nine clans! ”

The woman's words caused the gamblers around her to laugh loudly. Someone smiled and said, "You are the princess, I am the emperor, why don't you come to see me?" ”

Some people even sighed: "This little girl looks good, but unfortunately she is a fool." ”

Jian Wenying was heartfelt when she heard this, and walked forward to find that several gamblers were surrounding a girl with messy hair and teasing. The girl was born with red lips and white teeth, beautiful eyebrows, and anger flowing between her eyebrows, it was the Snow Princess who had been missing in the palace for a few days.

At this time, Luoxue's hair was pulled into two loose buns, dressed in a dark gray kudzu cloth cardigan, blue and black linen silk trousers, a white left hand holding a rag, and a wooden bucket of water in the right hand, dressed like an ordinary sprinkler in the gambling house.

The people who come to the Golden Hook Casino to gamble are either rich or expensive, but only Jian Wenying has seen the princess, because they don't believe Luoxue's words, they just think she is talking nonsense.

Arguing with her are two people dressed as rich men. One of the tall and thin ones shook off the sleeves of his gold-silk rain-trimmed garment, with a little anger on his face, and said coldly: "Why bother so much with a female madman." Directly call the shopkeeper and beat the maid to death. ”

"Wouldn't it be cheaper to kill her? Uncle Ben's bullfighting pattern sprinkled thread embroidered Tibetan gown was bought for three hundred taels of silver, and it was defiled by the dirty water of this dead girl, so it is better to sell her to a brothel. "A slightly shorter and chubby man, with a fat head and big ears but high cheekbones, his eyebrows are like a golden hook hanging from the moon, and his eyes reveal a cold heart.

"You dare!" Luoxue grabbed the nine-section whip he was accustomed to carrying, but he grabbed a void. Her willow eyebrows were upside down, her face was so angry that she didn't think about it, she raised the barrel in her hand and splashed it on the short and fat man's head.

The short and fat man was coldly drenched in soup, and he was angry for a while, his fingers trembled and pointed at the falling snow, and it took a while to squeeze out a sentence: "Beat to death with a stick!" ”

"Cousin!" The tall and thin man took a few steps forward, grabbed the short and fat man, and stretched out his hand to slap the falling snow. How was Luoxue willing to suffer, he caught the tall and thin man's hand, twisted it back, and pushed it on the short and fat man, and the two fell to the ground together.

The shopkeeper walked out at some point, stood aside and trembled, and shouted, "Someone! Drag this dead girl out and beat her to death. Dare to offend the son and cousin of Shuntian Mansion Yin, it is clear that he is suspicious! ”

At that moment, a few thugs in black satin robes stepped forward and twisted the falling snow and wanted to take it away. How was Luoxue willing to comply, and took advantage of the situation to grab a few blood marks on the face of one of them, but the other party was helpless and was still tied up.

Jian Wenying knew that Princess Luoxue was rude and willful, almost violent and perverse, so she deliberately did not make a move, wanting her to learn some lessons. Now that he saw that the shopkeeper was really going to beat her to death, he knew that he couldn't help but take action.

"Wait!" Jian Wenying strode forward and said unhurriedly: "This girl is my maid, I went back to my hometown to visit my sister-in-law a few days ago, and disappeared for no reason, but I don't want to be abducted by your Golden Hook Gambling House." Let's go and see the officials. "After that, the one who pulled the shopkeeper was going out.

"You...... Jian Wenying, you damn it, who is your maidservant? Don't come and save me! The falling snow slammed Jian Wenying's way and shouted loudly. Jian Wenying shook her head at her, winked, and motioned for her to keep quiet.

Humpty Dumpty had already gotten up from the ground, his hair was wet and rubbing on his fat face, as if he was bowing, and he said angrily: "If you see an official, you will see an official!" Shuncheon Fu Yin is my father! After speaking, he crossed his hands on his waist and glared at Jian Wenying, looking like a demonstration.

Seeing this, several Qian generals and lieutenants gathered around, leaned behind Jian Wenying, and asked, "General Wude, what's wrong?" ”

Without waiting for Jian Wenying to answer, Humpty Dumpty already said contemptuously: "It turns out that he is just a five-rank martial arts general!" ”

There was a Qian general sneer: "Isn't it? Who in the capital does not know that Jian Wenying, the son of Master Jian of the Ministry of Rites, does not rely on his father's shadow, and starts from General Wupin. How can it be compared to the stupid and dull son of Lord Yin of Shuntian Mansion, relying on his father to be Yin of Sipin Mansion, he was abducted and deceived everywhere, and he was cleverly robbed, which is really a pig battle. ”

When Humpty Dumpty heard this, he trembled with anger and couldn't speak. The shopkeeper knew in his heart that the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites was the official title of the second grade, and the Yin of Shuntian Mansion was only the fourth grade. immediately knelt and bowed to Jian Wenying, and said: "General Wude is not strange! If the little ones knew that this girl was from Shangshu Mansion, how dare the little ones not greet them well? Ask the general to atone for his sins! ”

Jian Wenying didn't want to cause trouble, and said briskly: "Forget about today's matter, I won't worry about you." It's just the maid Xue'er in my house, I'm going to take it back to the house. ”

"That's, that's." The shopkeeper was busy responding, and ordered someone to untie Princess Luoxue and return her to Jian Wenying.
