Chapter 19: Chance Encounters
From time to time, some people or poetry are flourishing, a lewd poem, or a drunken work, leading to singing, making wolves bark in all directions, and the surrounding boats turn around when they hear the sound.
Young people are like this, the scenery is good or not, the key is the atmosphere. They are also from wealthy families, have strict family education, and have been disciplined and oppressed at home for a long time, so of course they have to vent when they go out. In addition to the two boatmen on the painting boat, there are no singers and dancers, but they are unrestrained and drink happily.
I have long been integrated into it, and in 999, the ginseng brothers hooked up shoulder to shoulder, enthusiastically discussing the privacy of the scandals of various celebrities in Chang'an. As for the man-made scenic spot of Qujiang, it is nothing more than pavilions, flowers and green spaces, but there is no intention to appreciate it, everyone is devoted to drinking and venting, gossiping and lustful, ghosts crying wolves, the scene is violent and chaotic, and the two dukes are terrified.
Not far away, a richly and elegantly decorated painting boat slowly moved forward in the autumn breeze, and a young woman in plain and elegant clothes and a graceful and noble temperament lay sideways on the rattan bed in the boat, watching this group of bored people with great interest.
"Who is the man who just sang?" The young woman asked.
"Princess Hui, that person just now is the grandson of General Cui of Tongguo, Cui Zhangcui." The maid beside him bowed and replied.
"It's also graceful to see from afar, but this singing voice....this singing voice is not very good to evaluate," the woman smiled wryly and shook her head, "Who is this one who is writing poetry on the bow of the ship now?" ”
"Princess Hui, this is the eldest grandson of the old general Lu Gongcheng, Cheng Chu Cheng Dezhao." The maid bowed.
"Sure enough, there is Cheng's door! Even this tone of voice is quite golden, like a battle between soldiers and soldiers, and the blades collide and rub, which makes the palace tremble. "Speaking of a smile, like the autumn breeze cool, it is refreshing.
"Brother Zihao, today you and my brothers are gathering, chanting or singing, only Brother Zihao is here silent. I have heard for a long time that Brother Zihao's poetry and painting are unique, so it is better to compose a poem according to the scenery to add interest, so that I can see and understand you. Cui Chang saw that I only cared about drinking and talking, so he stepped forward to liven up the atmosphere.
"Ah~ Poetry and painting, don't dare to be, don't dare to be! My little brother was seriously ill the day before yesterday, and my poetry and painting skills have long been forgotten. It's hard to resist the warmth of the world's brothers, if you dance the knife to help the fun, what do you think? "I have memorized a lot of Tang poems and Song lyrics, and it is not difficult to take a few according to the scene, but I don't really want to make a noise, so I am ready to perform a set of demon subduing knife techniques that I am good at.
"Good!" "Okay!" The crowd roared
"In that case, the little brother is ugly!" I stood at the bow of the boat, bowed my hand to everyone, lifted the front hem of the robe, lowered it to the waist, drew a knife in a "wind and fire" style, raised my head and said: "My set of demon subduing knife method is realized after amnesia, a total of eight hundred and forty-six styles, and the knife is in the person, ****!" Everyone dodged away! ”
I shouted, the knife unfolded, the wind blew, and the sand and rocks flew away. I smothered stick, disappeared, backstabbed, boned, chopped, kidney hit, disappeared, backstabbed, chopped, limeed, backstabbed...........
Everyone was fascinated and their eyes were dull, and Cheng Chuxin said: It seems that this person's sword skills have been passed on by my grandfather, and he has the potential to surpass!
"Who is this man? What's he doing? The woman in the painting boat not far away asked.
"Back to the princess, this person is Wang Xiu Wang Zihao, who was passed on to Chang'an because of amnesia. He seems to be performing knife skills now, but his tricks are extremely profound, and the little maid does not dare to speak falsely. The maid bowed and replied.
"Oh, come to think of it, he's Wang Xiu. The Nine Flowers Jade Dew was prepared by him, and I heard that he also had a talented lady,........"
"Yes, that's it." The maid said.
"Interesting, pass on my words, and invite all the heroes over there to come to my boat."
"Yes!"
Just as he was about to deliver a fatal blow to his imaginary opponent, the two boats were already walking side by side.
"Princess Lanling invites everyone to come and swim together in my boat," a burly guard clenched his fists and said loudly.
"Yay!" Everyone was elated, and hurriedly ordered the prince to stop, impatient.
Cheng Chu risked death to interrupt my nirvana: "Don't have a convulsion!" Come with me to the princess. ”
It's okay to insult me, but it's definitely not okay to insult my knife skills! I was angry, "Is the princess very hanging?" ”
Cheng Chu didn't look at my stinky face, grabbed me, and forced me over. This kid is so strong, I think I might not be able to beat him if I am empty-handed.
"I've seen the princess," everyone said, and I was among them.
"Visiting the lake today, I met all my Tang talents, and I took the liberty to invite you, and I hope you will enjoy the light." Princess Lanling was still lying on the vine, looking tired and her voice pleasant.
"Don't dare, don't dare, I'm honored to be invited by the princess." Cui Meinan stepped forward and flattered: "Under Cui Zhang, I thank the princess for her appreciation" bowed down with a demeanor.
"I saw the princess at the beginning of the next journey, the princess is graceful and elegant, the country is .............. fragrant, and I can travel with the princess today ............. ........... very lucky!" Cheng Chu didn't care about everyone's contempt and disdain, and his face was fascinated.
Mean boy! I scolded Cheng Chu in my heart, and I also stepped forward to express and introduce myself.
Princess Lanling is the twentieth daughter of Li Shimin, who married into the Dou family at the age of fourteen. 5 years later, her husband Dou XX died of illness, and now he has been widowed for 8 years, at the age of 39.
The Tang Dynasty was prolific and unruly princesses, and many avant-garde and open, bohemian and uninhibited generations, and the ministers of the court and the central government were afraid to avoid the royal marriage. Although Princess Lanling has no notoriety, she has been widowed for many years, and she can't help but have some ambiguous rumors. He is gentle and knowledgeable, which is very different from other princesses.
Everyone avoids snakes and scorpions for the yellow flower princess, but for the charming, gentle and occasional widow mature princess with scandals, they are flocking to it, which is like spring.
Princess Lanling is not a beauty, and like Ying and the second daughter, she can only be regarded as a middle-class posture, just in terms of appearance, it is far from those modern cosmetics spokespersons. But the only royal temperament on her body, the dignified and amorous look, the plump but not bloated posture made my eyes linger and difficult to restrain me.
The male creature is very strange, and the atmosphere of joy and harmony just now is gone. In the communication with the princess, she flaunted herself openly or implicitly, and belittled others, and everyone was like a stallion, a pig, and a donkey in heat................. and I was among them. I just drank quite a bit, so there's no shame in this behavior, and I make excuses for myself.
Princess Zihao stopped the conversation with a and turned her eyes to me, she was older than me, older than me, and it was normal for her to call me a cousin. "Just now you didn't have a good time dancing the knife, but you were disturbed by this palace, can you continue now?"
"Princess, although Brother Zihao's knife skills are exquisite, but the sword has no eyes, the space of this painting boat is narrow, if it hurts His Royal Highness, my brother is not easy to explain, if we drink and guess, the loser or compose a poem, or stroke the piano and sing, what does the princess think?" When Cui Chang saw that the princess was paying attention to me, he immediately jumped out to sabotage me.
Dressed beasts! My teeth itched with hatred, and Princess Lanling also asked me with her eyes if I would agree. I could see the satisfaction and relief in her eyes, and this was the kind of atmosphere she wanted, and the feeling of a few little boys fighting for her made her feel comfortable and satisfied.
The charm of a mature woman is unstoppable, although everyone knows it, but they are also willing to kill each other, which may be the extreme of the fearless spirit that Buddhism says.
In fact, I don't think it's a shame for a man to be like this, if I have a cold face and make it clear: I have seen your ghostly eyes, and you don't want me to be jealous of you, I will not satisfy you, a perverted widow who is immoral and shameless, and I will be scolded by my brothers who come with me, and I will make the princess sad, and I will feel that I have grown a tail and brownish-yellow body hair, and I don't need to get dressed and jump on the tree to pick fruit to eat.
So I nodded: "The world's brother is reasonable, but the younger brother has amnesia after illness, and he doesn't know anything about poetry and songs. ”
"No! Absolutely not! Everyone had a shameless face.
"Hehe, since everyone disagrees with Zihao's tricks, let's do what the world says. Zihao, you have to be embarrassed, this palace will ask for you for a while, how about it? "The princess's charming smile was encouraging me viciously, and it seemed that she wanted to see me ugly.
"The princess is kind, Zihao has received it, and I hope that the princess's subordinates will be merciful for a while, and Zihao will thank you first."
"Hehe... Oh, everyone is not allowed to bully Zihao for a while, and now there are not many honest people like Zihao. The Princess's words immediately enveloped me in a vicious gaze, accompanied by the sound of finger snapping and teeth grinding.
Looking at this group of scum who just called themselves brothers, but now they have hideous faces, I feel a sense of powerlessness. I want to go home.
