Chapter 100: The Moon is Like a Cage

Yuan Tan and Xie Yi did not participate in Xingya, and the two of them watched Chu Disaster painting, and were sent away by Xie Yi. When Liu Nong accompanied Chu Pi to paint on the mountain, Xiao Ran, Huan Wen and others came to find him, chatted for a while, and then went home.

In the meantime, Zhou Yi finally realized where Liu Nong was, and cast peeping eyes from time to time. Liu Nong sat in the middle of the seat, turning a blind eye to it, without it, why bother with a dying person.

The painting dyed by Chu Li is a panorama, and the day will not be completed, so he missed this evaluation. However, the painting is indeed excellent, and it is extremely magnificent, divided into three scenes, including most of the mirror lake, the entire Wang manor, and the pedestrians on and off the mountain. Defend its definite appearance, the style of painting is quite ancient, the ingenuity is unique, the landscape is the method of layering and dyeing, and the characters are depicting the gods. The two are integrated into one, and it is difficult to distinguish each other, which is exactly what the sentence should be: if people paint landscapes, they know that landscapes are like paintings, and people are also paintings.

Liu Nong sighed secretly while watching: With this shaping technique alone, you can already get a glimpse of its skills, and I am afraid that it is on par with Shu Jiao. However, if you really want to finish this painting, you won't have ten days and a half to think about it!

When he finished taking shape and looked at the sky, he coughed softly.

"Lao Zhanzhen has been waiting for a long time, thank you for your shame!"

Chu Li put the pen aside, stared for a while, and then looked around, and saw that only himself and Liu Nong were left in the huge mountain, his expression was slightly astringent, but there was a smile hidden in his eyes, obviously very satisfied with the painting.

Liu Nong said with a smile: "Ji Ye's painting is extremely great, when the painting is completed, can you borrow Liu Nong's view?" ”

Chu Li said with a smile: "Why do you need to borrow it, it is to give it to Zhan Zhen." Chu Disaster originally wanted to make a half-scene picture to make up for the season, but he didn't want to touch the scene for a while, so he simply acted in vain. ”

"Just do it!"

Liu Nong praised from the bottom of his heart.

At that moment, the two of them went down the mountain along the intestinal path.

Xie Pei is still immersed in the painting, his expression is leisurely, and the corners of his mouth are smiling; Liu Nong waved his wide sleeves. The clogs are brisk; A breeze hit, lifting the corners of the robes of the two people, both of whom were young people.

When they arrived at the corner of Guhuai, Yuan Tan and Xie Yi came from below, and when they learned that Chu Li had missed the opportunity, they were relieved. Chu Li's face looked as usual. did not have the slightest annoyance, but said with a smile: What regrets? If you get a good work because of this, it is enough to comfort memories.

The sun sets in the west, and the night moon will rise. Halfway up the mountain, the maids and maids stand on both sides of the clear stream with bowls of snow lanterns, reflecting the four fields in a jade field. Along the side of the stream, all the reed mats are spread, the low table is staggered, and all kinds of melons and fruits are placed on it.

Lang Jun was in groups of threes and twos, chatting, groaning, or drinking. The demeanor is full of joy. Under the osmanthus tree, the little girls flashed their bright eyes, surrounded by clusters of small wooden basins and small wine glasses, looking up at the moon from time to time, and their faces were looking forward to it.

Yuan Nu was wearing a peach placket skirt, combing a fallen horse bun, swaying with a young phoenix, and holding her hands on her waist. Kneeling in the moon white reed mat. It seems dignified and demure, gentle and elegant, but it is not. If you look closely, she is sitting impatiently, half of her body is leaning obliquely against the osmanthus tree behind her, and her eyes like lacquered stars are flashing left and right, as if she is looking for something.

Suddenly, the light in his eyes suddenly opened. Then he quietly closed his eyes, slowly turned sideways to face Empress Yuan, and said softly: "Sister, I saw Brother." ”

"Oh, and then......" Empress Yuan was looking down and silently counting the small wine glasses on the low table. There are fifteen of them, enough to hold fifteen little moons, and she happens to be fifteen.

"Sister!!" Yuan Nuzheng raised her thin eyebrows slightly, and her voice was slightly heavier.

Empress Yuan raised her head, slowly sat up straight, folded her right hand on her left hand, quietly exerted force on her waist, stretched her slightly sore shoulders, and then smiled softly: "And then, little sister." ”

"And then ......"

Yuan Nuzheng blinked her eyes, picked up one of the small wine glasses on her case, looked at it, her expression seemed to be quite reluctant, and after a little hesitation, she finally gently put it on Sister A's case, and whispered: "Sister, then, you should ask Brother to come and sit." ”

"Why don't you ......?"

Empress Yuan smiled lightly, followed the little sister's gaze, her expression was still stunned, and her words stopped abruptly, only to see that on the side of the small bridge opposite them, several young men were looking around, one of them was the elder brother, and there was also a beautiful crane.

Slightly.

Empress Yuan frowned slightly, stretched out three fingers, pinched the small wine glass at the corner, gently put it back on the little sister's case, and said in a low voice: "Nuzheng, don't mess around!" If you let Brother know, how do you teach Liu Langjun how to deal with himself? She has already persuaded her little sister that there is a world of difference between the Yuan family of Chen Jun and the Liu family of Huating, and the hope is extremely slim, and Liu Langjun may not be willing. But according to the little sister's temperament, I'm afraid it's very difficult......

"Humph!"

Yuan Nuzheng's mouth pursed, and she was suddenly sullen, thinking: "If I call, that beautiful crane will probably not come." But if he doesn't call, he won't come! Mo Ruo, try? As soon as he raised his eyebrows, he wanted to get up and greet his brother.

Xie Zhenshi on the other side had already gotten up and called out to Xie Yi and the others, "Brother! ”

Hearing the call, Xie Yi and the others looked back together.

Xie Yi, who was looking for them everywhere, looked overjoyed and said with a smile: "Very good, Zhan Zhen, Ji Ye, come with me!" With that, he stepped across the bridge and left.

Liu Nong walked to the side of the osmanthus tree, and with the help of the floating white light, Yuan Nuzheng under the tree was clear, his eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and he looked left and right, and saw that there was still an empty case at the edge, so he wanted to sit down.

Yuan Nuzheng quietly glanced at Liu Nong, Ran Ran sat up straight, played with the bronze wine glass in her hand, and said in a rambling voice: "Liu Langjun, that is Brother Shang's position." ”

Well!

Hearing this, Liu Nong's figure suddenly froze, and his sword eyebrows were immediately raised, and his expression was slightly unnatural.

"Indeed, it is mine." Xie Shang shook his wide sleeves, slowly walked through the source of the stream, smiled at Liu Nong, and sat behind the desk.

"I'm sorry!"

Liu Nong's face was astringent, he waved his hands slightly, and his eyes swept around the wilderness to find a vacant seat, but they came late, where was there any room for it, unless he let Laifu set up a case again, but it was too late at this time.

"Zhan Zhen!"

Yuan Tan waved his hand at Liu Nong, then pointed to the vacant seat beside him, and said with a smile: "Why do you want to go somewhere else and come here to sit." ”

At present, everyone is sitting, but Liu Nong is independent.

Liu Nong thought about it for a while, if he was more stubborn, wouldn't it be too traceable? immediately wiped away the worries in his heart, smiled, and stepped behind the case a few times. Flick the hem of the robe slightly, sit down slowly, and do not squint.

The fragrance on her side is secretly soaked, and the corners of Yuan Nu's mouth are slightly upturned and slightly upturned.

At this time, the moon rises.

The full moon flows quietly, and the sky is reflected in the sky. At first sight, this month is faintly hazy. If someone accidentally threw the jade into the ink; Gradually, it is bright and bright, and there are speckled shadows, which make the beautiful moon elegant and light. I don't know when, like a water bloom quietly soaking down, as if wrapped in smoke, and silently unified this land, all in vain. The snow lanterns in the hands of the handmaidens were hidden by the moonlight, and they were only like insects. Dots.

Waiting for the moon to be in the middle, in the sky and on the ground, only this jade moon, only its own, and nothing else.

At the source of water, several people in brocade robes and gorgeous clothes sat behind the case, Xie Bao, Wang Kan, and Ji Zhan were all here, and there was still a brocade robe and jade crown. He is about 20 years old, and his eyebrows are as long as willow sweeps. The eyes are bright and inlayed; The oblique nose is the peak, the light lips are slightly weaker, and the shallow sip makes the knife thin. Due to the darkness of the night, the man sat silently in a low bed behind the three of them, and there was a boulder on his side. Teach people to faintly ignore its traces.

At this time, Xie Di twisted his body slightly, and laughed softly: "It's too ......"

"Mr. Youru!"

Lang Jun in the brocade robe leaned against the carved railing on the side of the bed, with a smile on the corner of his mouth and a comfortable expression. casually raised the white deer in his hand lightly, restrained Xie Bao's words, and then smiled indifferently: "It's okay to call me Daoji!" ”

Dogi ......

Xie Pei's thick eyebrows were dark, but he said with a smile: "Dao, Daoji, on the night of mid-autumn, the moon is already empty, why not open the axis by Daoji?" ”

The brocade robe Langjun raised the white deer in his hand slightly, and then slowly pulled it down, counting it as waving his hand, and said with a smile: "Mr. Youru, Mr. Yan Yuan and Ji Jun are all famous people in the world, and they are all famous people in the world. He blinked. (Ji Zhan, Jiang Zuo Wujun!) )

"Yes!"

Ji Zhan held his long beard and said with a smile: "Young Confucianism opens the shaft, and the old decay will also be treated!" ”

Xie Pei quietly glanced at Lang Jun and Ji Zhan in the brocade robe, secretly made a little preparation, saw that the moon had ended, everyone was visiting here, and it was inconvenient to stay for a long time, so he grabbed the wine cup on the case, got up slowly, stepped out of the low case, greeted the water, and held the wine cup ring as an invitation.

Wait for the four to be quiet, and say loudly: "Today, in the middle of the night, the moon sits in the sky, the cool breeze is gentle, and we gather in the stream; The jade on the top of the head is just like the eyes of Xizi, which is not covered; The gentlemen on his side look like the talents of young uncles, and they do not hide it; Looking at this month, I have very little, looking at the kings, I am very happy; May this wine be used to sacrifice the moon to Langlang! I wish to use this wine to appeal to the firmament! I am willing to use this wine to be with you! (Sue Screen, Curtain Huai, Yongzhi)

"Smooth with you!"

Everyone here stood up and joined in, even the little girls were no exception.

Xie Pei held the wine cup, looked up to the sky, invited the moon in one fell swoop, and then slowly sprinkled the wine into the stream, and everyone followed. At this time, the moonlight projected in, and the crown belt and light yarn were gathered into the nine turns, just because of the moon.

After the ceremony, Xie Li took another one, put it on the lantern magnolia, and the orchid went with the water, waved his hand deeply, and transferred it to the back of the case.

Twisting the water, begin.

At this time, there is a female flute, the flute sound is quiet, bright and like the moon, wearing a crown robe, in love with the moon veil, a few Nana around the scene like a flocculent. The timbre is pure and slow, so that the people who hear it will have a leisurely heart, and their faces will not be sad, nor will they fall into it.

Just like this scene, gentleness is not clever.

In all directions, the chips were staggered, and the laughter was endless.

Empress Yuan stretched out a finger and followed the scale to the small wine glass in front of her, the corners of her mouth were curved, and her eyebrows were also curved.

"Poof!"

Yuan Nu was looking at Sister A and smiled, and said coquettishly: "If Sister wants this annoying water to end earlier, why not go to the person who plays the flute and make him not stop singing, so that the three rounds of wine should be extremely fast!" ”

"Nuzheng, Hugh is talking nonsense!"

Empress Yuan was coquettish, her pink face was quietly red, and their moon-chasing drama had to be played after the flow of the water. Thinking about it, I'm afraid that all the girls of the family are looking forward to ending it sooner.

The orchid lantern, floating in the water, flows with the trend, comes to a small whirlpool, and swings three times.

The sound of the flute, quietly.

Someone caught the lamp and got up, Lang Lang smiled, and the silkworm eyebrows flew up, it was Wang Xizhi.

Wang Xizhi held the wine cup, groaned slightly, and chanted loudly: "The orchid pavilion flowers are disorderly, and there will be no separation from now on; Void and quiet, wind and moon are like the sky and ......"

After a poem, everyone praised.

Ji Zhan stroked his long beard and smiled: "Wonderful! Touching the class, although Yi Shao is not good at poetry, but the temperament is noble and clean, and the posture of the wind instrument is like a bamboo, which is comparable to the moon. If this poem is about the idea, it should be a product, if it is about the words, it is also a work of the middle! ”

Xie Pei smiled: "Yes! ”

"That's great!"

Wang Kan invited him to drink with his wine glass, although his mouth was humble, his face was full of smiles.

Orchid Pavilion Flower Discord......

When Wang Xizhi got up, Liu Nong pinched the wine glass and paused slightly, and then listened to him sing this poem, and suddenly wondered in his heart: How did he actually chant the meaning of "Lanting Collection Preface"? Tonight is obviously mid-autumn, not the third day of March, and the number of people here is nearly 100, and it is not in agreement with the 42 friends of Lanting. Could it be that the history is wrong?

Then I thought about it again: Well, I'm afraid that the preface to the book he will write in the future is an occasional thought today......

While I was thinking, the sound of the flute stopped.

Xie Shang lazily leaned over and twisted the wine cup in his hand, glanced at an osmanthus tree in the distance, and saw that someone under the tree was catching the flute and throwing it back, the corners of his mouth cracked secretly, and he sang slowly: "The cinnamon incense burns Chang'e Palace, and today it is the same as the ancients; The Nine Heavens Goddess should repent of yesterday and stole the medicine into ......her dream. ”

After singing, he did not wait for praise, put the wine to his lips, sucked it gently, and drank it all.

Wang Kan said with a smile: "The posture of the ancestor is beautiful; Its nature is invisible, and it seems to be clear! Well, this poem should be in the middle of the day. ”

"Thank you!"

Xie Bao thanked him and said nothing. According to the example of the evaluation, the children of the superior gate valve are also the third grade, although Xie Shang's poem is not the best work, but it is also unique and deserves to be in the middle.

At this time, Ji Zhan smiled and said: "No, if you talk about beautiful posture, since Uncle Bao's collection, who else can reach Huating Meihe!" ”

As soon as the words landed, the two people on their sides paused slightly, Xie Qi smiled without saying a word, and Wang Kan was slightly embarrassed.

"Yes!"

The eyes of Lang Jun in the brocade robe behind him suddenly brightened, and then slowly put the wine glass away, leaned forward slightly, stroked the tail and said with a smile: "Dao Ji has seen the two sides of the beautiful crane, and it is indeed an ice carving jade brick, which is embarrassing!" Then talk about its poems and its piano, all of which are not vulgar, if you talk about it in detail, it should be rare in Daoji's life! Well, it's hard to put it into words......"

After a pause, he tapped the handle on the dwarf case, and then said: "Tonight, you should hear its poetry!" ”

He actually met Liu Nong, and he spoke so highly of it......

Wang, Xie, and Ji, the three of them were all stunned, and their faces were different.

The orchid continues to flow, and it will stop at Yuan and Xiao, and everyone knows it. This is not strange, the person who plays the flute has a heart! Wang Xie Yuan Xiao is a high-class wealthy family, with countless elite disciples, taking advantage of this festival to show one or two, and also add elegance to the improvisation.

Yuan Nuzheng turned her head slightly, staring at Liu Nong's side face, the more she looked, the more happy she became, the ten fingers lying on her waist were intertwined, and the roots were tender and white; Curled the corners of his mouth, he asked with a smile: "Liu Langjun, do you guess that magnolia will stop in front of Junzhi?" ”

Hearing this, Empress Yuan's body leaned slightly, and she looked at Mei Langjun across Lady Yuan; Xie Zhenshi was originally teasing the moon in the cup with one finger, but when he heard this, he paused slightly, tilted his head and looked at each other.

Liu Nong's eyebrows were flying, and he closed his lips and didn't guess.

With a straight face, Jing Xiu was behind the case, and saw that the magnolia was about to pass in front of him and float towards Xiao Ran. smiled slightly, but didn't care, and was about to grab a drink.

The flute stopped abruptly.

Yuan Nuzheng shouted: "Liu Langjun, stop ......" (to be continued.) )
