Chapter 220: Portrait
Seeing that the other party is not a good talker, Bai Yuniang, as a woman, has no way to talk cheekily.
So after asking a few innocuous questions, he left happily.
At this moment, the man who had been so much that she was going to sigh at himself finally took the initiative to speak:
"Oh yes, I've always forgotten to introduce myself, under the surname Lu, Lu Xiaoxian."
The woman turned around when she heard this, stunned for a moment, she didn't expect the man in front of her to even have such a beautiful name.
Facing the other party's slightly questioning eyes, Bai Yuniang realized that she had unconsciously stared at the man surnamed Lu for a while, so she quickly glanced at her eyes and said softly:
"My surname is Bai, Bai Yuniang."
"Fortunately."
Lu Xiaoxian was still smiling.
The woman, who was so dominant in the cottage that she could almost walk sideways, was like a lamb, and did not dare to look at the man again, so she hurriedly turned her head and left.
……
In the capital city, in the imperial study, the emperor sat behind the dragon case with a frown, and there was a letter on the desk.
There was a man in black kneeling in front of the desk, bowing his head and saying nothing, as if waiting for an order.
After a long time, the emperor finally spoke:
"You just said that you met the royal authority in Zhenjian Mansion?"
"Back to Your Majesty, it is true." The man in black replied in a deep voice.
"What is he doing there, does he know Chu Lixia's true identity?"
"Back to Your Majesty, according to Zi Mouse, the princess of Beitu suffers from a stubborn disease, and the eighth prince is entrusted to help find a doctor because he has some friendship with Pu Wen, the king of the Southern Court of Beitu.
On the way, I happened to meet Princess Donghan and her party, although the two had contact, they didn't seem to know each other's details. ”
Hearing this, the emperor nodded, "In that case, then don't let this princess enter the palace and send her elsewhere." ”
"Dare to ask Your Majesty, where do you want to arrange her?"
The emperor thought for a moment and said, "Ankang Palace." ”
The dark guard, who had been hanging his head and obeying orders, had a very strange face when he heard this, but he still replied: "Yes." ”
The emperor rarely showed a smile, as if talking to himself:
"This trouble was caused by that kid, I'd like to see what he does."
The dark guard still lowered his head, but the corners of his mouth were hooked up with a smile.
"Okay, the capital won't need you for a while, you go and help your master, he is in Girl's Mountain, after this incident, you will no longer be a secret guard."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
The Dark Guard raised his head, thanked the emperor sincerely, and then bowed to the end.
If Wang Quanquan was present, he would definitely be able to recognize this secret guard with the pseudonym "Mao Rabbit" as Lu Xiaoxian's apprentice Xishun.
It's just that now his face is less childish and a little more solemn.
After Xishun stepped back, the emperor picked up the letter on the table again.
The letter was written by a powerful minister in the Eastern Han Dynasty to a person who also had the same hands and eyes to the sky.
Although the handwriting in the letter is slightly different from the one on Princess Donghan's body, through Lu Xiaoxian's imitation, it also takes into account the similarity of eight or nine points and five or six points.
Looking at the above, the emperor fell into deep thought.
……
There is a boulder on the north side of Wangshi Village, and there is a one-person high wooden frame erected next to it, and two swings are tied to the wooden frame.
At this moment, Bai Yuniang was sitting on one of the swings, her eyes were in a daze, and she had words in her mouth:
"A pair of affectionate smiling eyes, a male and female face that is indistinguishable, read thousands of romantic articles, and leave a thousand dignified postures."
Before the age of twenty, she didn't believe in love at first sight, but after the age of twenty, she believed that this year, Bai Yuniang is twenty years old.
Lu Xiaoxian satisfied all the fantasies about men in her heart, and her gestures were indescribably elegant, but the elegance revealed the unique heroism of men.
This proportion is just the right amount of elegance, so that the girl who has just arrived in the mood for love falls defenselessly.
All of this is thanks to Lu Xiaoxian's life.
He is a declining royal family, with a sense of luxury that ordinary people can't learn, he is an excellent actor, elegance has long been integrated into his smile, this elegance is enough to overshadow most women.
At the same time, he has good skills, which makes him a little less charming and fat, and a little more heroic.
With the blessing of these advantages, don't say that a little girl who doesn't know the world, that is, those who grow up in the flowers, how many can not be excited?
Do you think that the people who go to Guanghanlou all day long to watch plays and listen to music are all big men? In fact, many of them are rich ladies and daughters of deep boudoirs.
It's a shame that Bai Yuniang didn't see the scene of Lu Xiaoxian dancing with long sleeves on the stage and sword dancing offstage, otherwise there might be a wonderful sentence of "You can sing a thousand tenders on the stage, and you can hold a three-foot sword off the stage".
When Bai Yuniang was in this "girl's spring", a middle-aged man came to the side and sat on another swing.
"Yu Niang, what are you talking about?"
One sentence brought Bai Yuniang back to reality, she glanced at the middle-aged man beside her, and said suspiciously:
"Dad, why don't you walk silently?"
The middle-aged man, who was 108,000 miles apart in height and weighed nearly 200 pounds, looked at his belly, and suddenly became more puzzled than the daughter next to him, he walked silently?
The middle-aged man was obviously used to being rough, so he didn't think about what was going on, and then said with a smile on his face:
"Yu Niang, there is something that my father has never told you, and now I want to discuss it with you."
"What's the matter?"
"Uh...... It's about your lifelong event, I have an old friend, when you were young, we agreed that if he had a son in the future, he would let you get married. ”
When Bai Yuniang heard this, her expression was stunned for a moment, and then she seemed to suddenly understand something, her face turned crimson, and she lowered her head.
The mountain king of the girl's mountain did not notice the change in his daughter's expression in the slightest, and continued to speak to himself:
At that time, my father also saw that the guy couldn't find his daughter-in-law, so he casually agreed, but the old boy was very thief, and when he saw that he couldn't find his daughter-in-law, he accepted a righteous son, and he wanted to take advantage of this anyway.
You also know that your father is the most reputable, and your father also knows that this matter is not for you, so you go to see that person, if you are satisfied, your father will naturally be happy, if you are not satisfied, that kid is a righteous son after all, and your father will not embarrass you. ”
Bai Zijing knows his daughter's temper best, if this matter is not handled well, he will have a reputation of not being trustworthy, and his baby daughter will no longer care about her own affairs in a fit of anger.
So he spoke cautiously at the moment, for fear that one would accidentally anger this aunt.
Unexpectedly, this daughter who pulled his beard without saying a word didn't know what happened today, and she lowered her head the whole time, and she couldn't see that her face was cloudy.
Finally, he said in an almost inaudible voice:
"Don't look any further, everything is up to Daddy."
After speaking, he lowered his head and ran away, leaving Bai Zijing with a confused face.
Bai Zijing touched his beard, strange in his heart, thought for a while, and couldn't think of anything strange in his brain, so he got up and left here and walked towards the east side of the cottage.
When he came to a room, he knocked on the door, and the people in the room were obviously prepared and immediately opened the door.
The one who opened the door was a fourteen or fifteen-year-old young man, with a bright red scimitar with a scabbard hanging from his waist, which was the one Wang Quanquan and the others met along the way.
"Uncle Bai, how is it? White girl, did she promise to see me? ”
The boy asked impatiently.
Bai Zijing still looked puzzled, and subconsciously replied: "I didn't agree." ”
The young man immediately became depressed when he heard this, but the other party's next sentence immediately lifted his spirits again.
"She said don't look at it, let me call the shots."
The young man immediately blushed excitedly, knelt down with a "plop", bowed his head and bowed, "Father-in-law is on top, and he is bowed by his son-in-law." ”
……
Wang Quanquan and others left Beijing after August 15, and it took four or five days to stop and stop all the way, although there were still a few days before the autumn equinox, but most of the fruits that were all over the mountains and fields were ripe.
Under the torture of the autumn tiger, several people walked hungry and thirsty on the official road, and there happened to be a persimmon tree full of orange and yellow fruits not far ahead, and there were so many fruits that the branches were bent.
Park Wen, who was in charge of driving the car, was the first to find out, urged the horsewhip, and quickly approached the persimmon tree.
Wang Quanquan pulled his straw hat and said lightly:
"You don't have to worry, this thing can't be eaten right now."
"This fruit is so attractive in color, why can't you eat it?"
Park asked, but the movements of his hands did not stop.
The North Turk is full of grasslands as far as the eye can see, there are few trees, even if there are, they are low shrubs, and there are very few fruit trees like the Central Plains, not to mention those towering giant trees that are more than ten zhang at every turn.
Wang Quanquan knew that the other party had not seen anything in the world, and explained:
"Persimmon at this time, although it looks attractive on the outside, is actually very astringent on the inside, and it needs to be frosted before it becomes sweet.
But if you really want to eat it, you can also put wine on the outside, seal it in a jar, and let it sit for a few days before eating. ”
"I see."
While the two were talking, the carriage had already reached the bottom of the tree, and Park Wen climbed directly up the branches, and soon reached the top of the tree, and after a while, he picked a large handful of golden persimmons.
Wang Quanquan took out the leftover half jar of wine from the carriage, smeared the persimmons one by one with wine, and put them in the jar for preservation.
"How does it taste?" Wang Quanquan asked with a smile.
"Brother Si, you are doing well, and you are very astringent."
Park Wen seems to have turned into a big tongue, and he can't say anything.
Just now he really couldn't resist the temptation, so he secretly hid one, and took a bite while the king was not paying attention, and he didn't notice anything wrong at first, and then the more he chewed, the more astringent it became, and finally his whole mouth was numb, which would have made him want to scrape off his tongue coating uncomfortably.
"Young man, listen to persuasion."
"That's it."
……
A few days later, on the girl's mountain, in the Wangshi Village, a young man with a knife at his waist was following behind a woman in her early twenties, her face full of flattery.
"Daughter-in-law, what do you want to eat, I'll go down the mountain and buy it for you."
The woman's face was full of indifference, and she didn't bother with the other party, walking briskly, trying to get rid of the other party.
This strange scene did not attract the attention of the people around them, because in their opinion, it was already strange.
At first, the woman would say threatening words such as "Don't scream, or I'll kill you", but after finding that it didn't work for this skinless guy at all, the woman gave up.
This woman named Yu Niang only hated that she didn't ask clearly, so she agreed in a daze, and now the other party is stuck to her body like a dog skin plaster, and she can't shake it off.
It all started a few days ago.
At that time, when Bai Zijing talked to her about this, she took it for granted that the object of marriage was the elegant man with a face that brought disaster to the country and the people, so she agreed without thinking about it.
Unexpectedly, when she was taken to see the main lord with a shy face, she was stunned on the spot.
There was no man in her mind, but a guy who was still a child no matter how she looked at it.
"Lady, my name is Chen Daxia, you can call me Daxia directly."
The child's mouth was a sentence that made Bai Yuniang almost collapse.
She looked at her father in disbelief and asked:
"Dad, the person you are talking about is this three-inch nail?"
Bai Zijing's expression was embarrassed, he always felt that his daughter would be wrong, for the sake of safety, he still let them meet, and now it seems that this is indeed the case.
"Yu Niang, Chen Shishi is the righteous son of my father's old friend Chen Chong, he looks a little younger, but his heart and eyes are not bad, and now is the time to grow his body, and he will naturally grow taller in a few years."
The young man, whose original name was Chen Shishi, who changed his name to Chen Daxia, nodded hurriedly and said:
"My father said, half the size, eat the poor, I am now a long time, make sure that it is the same every day."
"So you came to us to eat and drink?" Bai Yuniang glanced at him.
Originally, a sarcastic remark sounded different to Chen Shishi, and he said with a little shyness:
"Although the eldest husband should be ambitious in all directions, but since you say so, Yu Niang, then it is okay for me to be a son-in-law who is upside down."
Bai Yuniang is familiar with so many courtesies, righteousness and shame, but now she can't see the slightest in the other party, she is too lazy to talk nonsense, and coldly drops a sentence of "dreaming" and turns around and leaves.
The two "sons-in-law" who were left behind glanced at each other.
"Look, Stone, ......"
Bai Zijing was just about to speak, Chen Shishi immediately smiled, and said with confidence:
"Father-in-law, I understand that it's normal for Yu Niang to not accept it for a while, you give me some time."
Bai Zijing was still afraid that his daughter would hit this young man, but now it seems that he is thinking too much.
He originally planned to send off the guest politely, and after thinking about it for a while, he changed his mind, and now this child is quite a bit like when he was young.
Bai Zijing also relied on this indomitable cheekiness to marry Bai Yuniang's mother-in-law.
After having a plan in his heart, Bai Zijing spoke:
"Although I have an appointment with your father in advance, you are only his righteous son after all, so let's do it, I allow you to live in the cottage for a while, and it depends on you whether you succeed or not."
The young man who thought he would be invited down the mountain immediately looked happy, nodded and said:
"Thank you, father-in-law, I will definitely succeed."
Since then, Bai Yuniang has had an extra follower behind her, calling "daughter-in-law" again and again, which makes her annoyed.
……
"Mr. Lu, I'm sorry."
Bai Yuniang closed the door and locked Chen Shi behind her outside the house, the latter did not feel the slightest displeasure, standing at the door with a knife and a faint smile on his face, like a guard.
Lu Xiaoxian in the house was looking down and drawing a picture, when he heard the voice, he raised his head and smiled at the woman.
After the contact in the past few days, the two are also familiar with each other, and Bai Yuniang is a little less shy when she faces the gentle and elegant Lu Xiaoxian at this time.
She gently placed the food box on the table and asked softly:
"What is Lu Gongzi painting?"
Lu Xiaoxian put down the rabbit brush in his hand, gently blew off the undried ink, and showed it in front of Bai Yuniang.
After seeing the contents of the rice paper, Bai Yuniang, who had not blushed for a long time, showed her cheeks and blushed again.
"Childe drew me?"
The man nodded and handed over the rice paper with the woman's portrait on it.
"There is Miss Lao to take care of these days, Lu is going to leave tomorrow, there is nothing to give to the girl before parting, so I drew a portrait and gave it to the girl, and I expressed my gratitude."
In the painting, there is a smile in the woman's eyes, and outside the painting, the woman's eyes are full of autumn water.
