Chapter 246: Holding a grudge
Just as Sha Liyang was bowing his head and thinking, Wang Quanquan on the side said curiously:
"Brother Yang, how did you offend your little prince?"
Hearing this, Sha Liyang raised his head and said with a wry smile:
"Because of a woman."
Hearing this, Wang Quanquan immediately came to his senses and continued to ask:
"What kind of woman can make a prince compete with you?"
A rare hint of shyness appeared on Sha Liyang's swarthy face, and he said softly:
"That woman's name is Lianxin, and she is the top card of Baoyue Building."
"Oh......"
As a frequent visitor to the Qinglou, Wang Quanquan understood it as soon as he heard the name.
……
Baoyue Tower, located in the capital city of North Turkistan, is one of the most prestigious green buildings.
Wadan is like the capital of the dynasty, with dignitaries and dignitaries gathered, and there is no shortage of places for wind and moon.
The people of Northern Turkistan are fierce, even if they are the girls of Qinglou, they are not as good at poetry and singing as the women of the Central Plains, and they are also good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but if there is a delicate body and soft voice among them, in the eyes of the guests, it can be regarded as a unique flavor.
Baoyuelou can be on the list, it all depends on the top girl called "Lotus Heart".
Although this Lianxin girl is from Donghan, she is a gentle person who is extremely rare in both Donghan and Northern Turkistan.
His voice is soft, and his mouth always gives people a very comfortable feeling, not at all like other girls, who step on the stool and show their thick arms without saying a word, and shout to wrestle with the guests.
In addition to her softer voice than other women, this woman whose appearance can only be described as "captivating the country and the city" is even more rare.
Although the Northern Turkistan established the country by force, there are still many scholars, and the lack of talent of women is virtue, which is not only prevalent in the Central Plains, but also in the Northern Turkistan.
In Northern Turkistan, which is already heavy on military force and suppression of literature, it is very rare for an enlightened family to find a teacher for their daughters, and it is still the case for dignitaries and dignitaries, let alone ordinary people.
This also leads to the fact that whenever a female literati emerges from Northern Turkistan, she is a shocking figure, who will not only be talked about by the literary world, but also sought after by the literati.
For example, there is a female chess player, who is full of strategy and does not lose to Yao Qingyi, who is a court strategist, and her chess strength is even more unique in the north, and even a certain big player who has been in the gods for ten years only defeated this woman by a slight advantage of half a son.
You must know that this great player is over 50 years old and has been immersed in chess for more than 40 years, while the female chess player is only in her early thirties and still has a lot of years to study.
But even so, this female chess master, who is not inferior to any man, is still unable to get an official position in the court, even if she is a strategist with no official or character, and was only invited by the royal family to be a teacher for the little princess, and gave her the nickname "Mr. Yishi".
The lotus heart girl in Baoyue Tower, although her talent is far inferior to this "Mr. Yishi", is a river lotus that can be seen from a distance and cannot be blasphemed.
Most of the men who came to Baoyue Tower were also aiming to be able to enjoy the scenery and poetry with this lotus heart girl.
……
Lianxin, formerly known as Xiahou Lianxin, Xiahou is a rare compound surname in Donghan, Xu is this dusty woman is afraid of humiliation, since the day she entered Baoyue Tower, she took her surname.
Xiahou's family has also been in Donghan, but it is a pity that it is only a hundred years, and now it is a matter of things.
The generation of the Xiahou family is not as good as the generation, and in the generation of Xiahou Lianxin, she is the only woman left.
When she first came to Beitu, this beautiful woman had less than ten taels of silver on her, and she was accompanied only by a blind pianist.
In just three years, the lotus heart girl who has become a popular Oiran from an unknown place has been sought after by many Wadan readers, and there are many high-ranking nobles.
The most famous of them is probably the little prince who is now in power, Dayan Batel.
The little prince is in love with the lotus heart girl in Baoyue Tower, this is a well-known fact in the Wadan literary world, if it weren't for the opposition of the Great Khan Agudamu, I am afraid he would have married this dusty woman to become a princess.
Ordinary scholars didn't dare to compete with him because of Battle's obscenity, and they also stayed away from the lotus-hearted girl, for fear of getting into trouble.
But there will still be a few infatuated people who are not afraid of the status of princes, most of them are tribal leaders who hold great power, and they can be regarded as the uncles and uncles of the future Great Khan in terms of seniority.
If the only exception is probably the military garrison, it is said that this Sha surnamed garrison has been fighting with the prince openly and secretly for many years, and he was also suppressed in the army and could not be promoted, and finally was caught by the other party and forced to defect to Northern Turkistan.
……
Baoyue Building has a total of four floors, because there is no number of bad luck in Northern Turkistan, so four-story buildings can be seen everywhere in Wadan, and the four floors of Baoyue Building belong to the lotus heart Oiran alone.
In a quiet room on the fourth floor, smoke fills the air.
This smoke comes from the finest thousand-year-old water agarwood, which is a tribute that belongs to Ouchi alone, and the sound of the piano, which can be called the three days around the beam, is from the hand of a man.
The man has no surname, perhaps because he is a violinist, so he took "Sitong", which is homophonic with "Silk Tong", as his name.
Piano master Sitong's face is white, he looks like he is only in his early thirties, although he is not handsome, but his eyebrows and eyes are also upright, and he is definitely not hooked with "ugly", but it is a pity that his eyes are pale and he is blind.
The blind violinist opened a pair of hollow eyes, and ten green jade fingers, which were more delicate than a woman, gently plucked the strings, and an old willow wood that had been weathered made a natural sound that did not match the appearance.
……
As soon as the blind pianist finished playing, a man in his early twenties walked in outside the door and said heartily:
"The ancients often said that the aftermath lingered for three days, Xiao Wang didn't believe it at first, but since listening to Mr. Sitong's piano sound, he knew that he was narrow-minded."
"I've seen the prince."
Sitong smiled and nodded in the direction of the voice, but did not get up.
The man he called the prince didn't care, and walked in directly.
"Lianxin, she's not here, the prince may need to wait a while."
The blind luthier whispered.
"Haha, don't get in the way, Xiao Wang didn't come to see her this time."
The man in the luxurious robe with a white sable on his head did not care about etiquette at all, and sat directly cross-legged opposite the blind pianist, and then spoke:
"Mr. Sitong's piano skills are unparalleled in the country, Xiao Wang has been to so many Qinglou Ling Pavilions, and I have never heard a piano sound that can make people so fascinated by Mr. Sitong."
The blind luthier seemed to be very familiar with the prince in front of him, and joked with a smile:
"The prince will say this in front of me, don't let that girl from Lianxin listen to it, you know her character."
"Haha, of course."
As he spoke, Battle gestured to his men, who quickly leaned over and handed over the wooden box in his hand.
"Mr. Sitong's piano sound needless to say, but the body of the piano is really worn, can not play all the skills of Mr., Xiao Wang specially visited a number of piano shops in the capital, and finally found a Guqin that can be considered to be in the ear, come today, want Mr. to play a song."
The blind pianist smiled at the corner of his mouth when he heard this, the little prince in front of him was scheming and worthy of his terrifying identity.
"Since the prince himself spoke, how can Sitong disobey."
As he spoke, the blind violinist took the guqin in the case, and when his fingers touched the left side of the piano body, his face couldn't help but froze, but then it returned to normal, and then gently placed the guqin in front of him.
The smile on the face of the man who put his hands on the piano disappeared, closed his eyes that had no effect, and slowly plucked his hands, the sound of the piano was melodious, like flowing water hitting the empty valley, sometimes towering like Mount Tai, sometimes like a river.
At the end of the song, the man opposite was dazed, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
"Wonderful, the first time I heard this sound, Wangshan is a mountain and Wangshui is water, I heard the middle part, it has become a mountain is not a mountain, Wangshui is not water, until the end of a song, after a long aftertaste, I suddenly realized that the mountain is still the mountain, and the water is still the water.
What a song of mountains and flowing water, Mr. Sitong, except for you, no one in the world can play such a charm! ”
The blind violinist smiled wryly when he heard this, and said:
"The prince insisted on giving it, and Sitong accepted it."
"Haha, it should be so, listening to your song is not in vain, so Xiao Wang will leave."
"The prince walks slowly."
The blind luthier smiled and nodded.
Battle got up and laughed and walked away.
It wasn't until the other party walked away that the blind violinist lowered his head again, quietly stroked the seal character in the lower left corner of the piano body, and then whimpered out of the song.
……
Qu Xianwei in the west, inaccessible, the terrain here is empty, so it is set up as a school field, usually used to train soldiers.
At this moment, Wang Quanquan was riding a horse, holding a strong bow, and constantly firing arrows at a "moving target" in the distance.
The target of this activity is none other than Shari Yang, who has just been recruited.
"Yes, run hard, the more you run, the more excited I get."
As he spoke, Wang Quanquan shot an arrow from his hand, impartially, just past the head of Sha Liyang, who was galloping in front of him.
The latter intuitively felt a gust of wind blowing on his scalp, and he couldn't help but shrink his neck in fright.
"This bastard, actually playing for real."
Sha Liyang glanced back at Wang Quanquan with a hideous smile on his face, and couldn't help but curse.
This matter has to start from the morning, Sha Liyang, who had a drunken night with the Wang Quanquan brothers, thought that everyone would not know each other, but now that they have drunk together, they can be regarded as laughing and hating, but they don't think that the other party is actually a grudge.
As soon as it was dawn in the morning, Wang Quanquan came to Shaliyang's room, threw a leather armor at the other party, and said:
"Don't say that the master doesn't take care of you, yesterday you let your subordinates shoot me dozens of arrows, although everyone is their own now, but one yard is one yard, and you will have to take dozens of arrows from me in a while."
"Huh?"
Sha Liyang, who had just woken up, was still a little confused, and followed the other party to the school field in a daze, and then there was the current scene.
Wang Quanquan did not directly send ten thousand arrows at once, but played each other with one arrow at a time, just like what happened to him yesterday, he felt that this was merciful enough, but Shariyang did not think so.
Although he knew that the other party would not really shoot him, the horse stumbled, and every time an arrow flew past his ears, it would make him feel like he had walked through the Huangquan Road.
And this torture is only half of the way.
"Xiaoquan, there won't be any problems, right?"
Even the decisive Wang Zhiru couldn't help but worry, last night a few people drank and chatted, so that Wang Zhiru had a certain understanding of Sha Liyang's ability, according to what he saw, as long as the other party was given a certain amount of time, a few more times of real sword and real gun training, he would definitely become a general who was not weaker than himself.
If Sha Liyang dies in battle, Wang Zhiru will not feel how sorry it is, after all, the sword has no eyes, but if he is accidentally killed by his own brother, it will really lose a capable general for no reason.
"Don't worry, fifth brother, I have a lot of money on hand, as long as he doesn't move, I can't hurt him."
Motionless is the king's eight!
Besides, Wang Ba still knows how to shrink his head and dodge the knife.
It's good that Wang Quanquan doesn't speak, but he is even more hearted when he opens his mouth.
You must know that at the beginning, Sha Liyang still had a soft armor helmet on his head, and then he was shot down by an arrow in the process of escaping, but at that time, the situation was exactly as Wang Quanquan said, if he hadn't tilted his head to try to dodge the arrow, he really wouldn't have been shot off the helmet.
Seeing that the game was almost over, Wang Quanquan put away his bow and arrows, and whistled into the distance, Sha Liyang turned his head when he heard the sound, and found that the other party no longer had the intention of Zhang Gong to take the arrow, so he reined in the war horse under him, turned the horse's head and ran towards this side, at this moment, he was more tired than the galloping horse under him.
Looking at the resentful Sha clairvoyant, Wang Quanquan shrugged and said:
"Let's clear up, if we are developed in the future, don't forget the grace of my acquaintance."
Hearing this, Sha Liyang tugged at the corners of his mouth and showed an ugly smile.
……
After doing everything, Wang Quanquan turned to look to the east again, and muttered:
"It's been long enough, it's time to go back."
"Now that you have lost all your skills, do you want me to send a team of people to escort you back to Beijing?" Wang Zhiru asked.
Wang Quanquan nodded and said bluntly:
"Just give me a hundred people, I was scared all the way, before I came, I was thinking about how to ask you for thousands of people, so I was majestic, and when I arrived, I found that I had borrowed 10,000 out, if I want so much, you are afraid that you will become a light general."
"Are you sure a hundred people are enough?"
Wang Quanquan nodded, "That's enough, just send me to Zhongzhou, and stop by to meet an old friend, maybe stay there for a few days." ”
"Good!"
Wang Zhiru didn't force it, after all, he was a Wuying general with a total of less than 20,000 horses, and now he was divided by Apu with 10,000, and the rest of the people were already stretched.
There was no pre-departure wine, and there was no ten-mile send-off, Wang Zhiru stood outside the barracks and waved goodbye to his brother, and when the figures of Wang Zhangquan and others completely disappeared on the horizon, Wang Zhiru turned his head to look at the west.
……
In the prison of the Criminal Department, Wang Zhide, who is dressed in luxurious clothes, still maintains an elegant image, even if he is suspected of rebellion, before the matter is clarified, he is still the prince who is above 10,000 people under one person.
After being imprisoned in the prison of the Criminal Department for three days, this prince should still eat, sleep, and even manage the jailer to play chess pieces on the chessboard and play a game alone.
"The Divine Decree to ......"
Just as Wang Zhide lowered his head and frowned at the chess, a sharp voice broke the silence in the prison.
"The king's authority takes the order."
A little eunuch came to the door of the cell with the holy decree in his hand, and the jailer hurriedly opened the door when he saw this, but the man in the cell was still not in a hurry, and only then did he get up to pay homage after putting down the last chess piece.
"After investigation by the Criminal Department, the evidence of Wang Shande's rebellion is true, and the title of prince will be removed from the current revolution, and after all his henchmen are arrested and brought to justice, they will be beheaded together. Chin this! ”
"Thank you, Lord Longne!"
The man who was no longer the identity of the prince was prostrate on the ground, just like he was in the imperial study, but in him, there was no fear of death, but in the dark that outsiders could not see, the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile.
