Volume 1: Frost Dance and Dust Chapter 24 Invitation to Meet
After a few days of calm days, and then slowly it was not calm, and Xiao Er went upstairs to report that there were visitors who visited more and more diligently. The person who came was either the son of a wealthy merchant or the son of a certain dignitary, and the purpose of the visit developed from the beginning of the chess game to the later coexistence of chess and painting. Wu Qingshuang politely turned people away on the grounds that she didn't know, went out to play, and took a nap.
It is not difficult for Wu Qingshuang to guess this, there is no impermeable wall in the world, and it must be that Wei Shao has revealed clues. Recalling that the last game of the day seemed to be enough to be a talking point for a long time, one pass ten to hundred, while she was hanging out a few more times, it was not difficult to inquire about her residence.
Wu Qingshuang expected that the young man surnamed Wei was still talented in chess, and then he admired the wonderful chess tricksters, as long as there was a book to record his chess scores, he would buy it to study. Since that day, after discussing the experience of chess with Qing Gongzi, who is also an admirer of wonderful chess tricksters, many people have come to the door to inquire about the situation and prepare to win chess and become famous. As for the girls, needless to say, they talk to handsome guys.
Qing Gongzi is a pseudonym that Wu Qingshuang casually said, and it is natural that several of his friends are indispensable to find out the news, including Cao Qijiang and the three of them who were present that day.
The timing of the trio's visit was a coincidence. Recently, Mr. Wei just found a good painting, and handed it over to his subordinates to frame it after returning home. Unexpectedly, the scroll rolled up after being framed looked exactly the same as the one that Wei Shao took back, so the subordinates "accidentally" sent it to the wrong room.
Cao Qi and Jiang's three families were also good friends with the Wei family, and the three young masters naturally followed their father to the door to taste the paintings. Master Wei confidently sent someone to take the picture scroll and show it in front of people.
Open it and take a look, amaze the audience, it is really a superb!
A pass of praise such as bright and full color, smooth strokes, and delicate brushstrokes, Master Wei was full of joy when he heard it. Shaoyan, Master Wei felt that the more he listened to the words of praise, the more mysterious he became, but he was a little suspicious that the painting he bought was really that good? Squinting at a glimpse of his son's uncomfortable face, surprised and embarrassed, the suspicion in Master Wei's heart deepened a little.
Master Wei hurriedly walked around to the front of the painting to take a look, and couldn't help but be dumbfounded. He had been selling Guanzi in advance to have a surprise, and now he was pleasantly surprised! The painting skill of this painting is absolutely above his paintings, the content of the painting is not the flower and bird pavilion, but the portrait of his son, the eyebrows and eyes are expressive, and the dust is like an immortal, and it is even more beautiful than himself!
In order to keep his promise, Young Master Wei explained that he had found a painter to paint for him, and then asked someone to quickly put away the painting. Seeing that he behaves strangely, how can there be a reason why he dare not show off if he has a good painting, there must be an article! Everyone, including Master Wei, stopped the painting and refused to accept it, just for one question: When did Lingdu come to a person with such superb painting skills?
Young Master Wei had a brain teaser and claimed that someone who was very eager for the painting student had painted it for him, and even the seal was engraved exactly the same. This reason sounded reasonable, and he reluctantly let him go.
Although the cowhide is blown like this, and being able to imitate it so similarly must be a talent, and it is not too much to make friends. Looking back at the people who have been in contact with Young Master Wei recently, except for the handsome boy who suddenly appeared that day with great chess skills, I really can't think of a second person who can make this painting, because it happened too coincidentally.
It is not impossible to associate painting with playing chess, Qing Gongzi can be an admirer of a clever chess player, but why can't he be an admirer of Xiao Huasheng? As a result, the literati and writers who wanted to challenge Wu Qingshuang went forward one after another.
Wu Qingshuang was so disturbed that she couldn't do anything, and if she didn't want to go out, she had to hang out and hang out, just to avoid the limelight.
I know that just out of the inn less than three streets will block the way. It was a woman who stood in the way, and she still remembered that it was the Miss Jiang family who played against her that day.
Miss Jiang didn't like to go around the corner, and said bluntly: "Young Master Qing is so coincidental, can you walk around with the little girl at will and see the style of Lingdu." β
Wu Qingshuang said: "It's really a coincidence, when I first arrived, Miss didn't dislike it, so I talked about the famous scenery in the city." "I want to say in my heart: You are so big, you are obviously here to wait for the rabbit. It's not easy to get stuck in this and want to slip away, and if you refuse one, another one will definitely pop up, and there are a lot of eyes staring at it!
The place where Miss Jiang took her became cleaner and cleaner the more she walked, and when she realized that something was wrong, Wu Qingshuang immediately pretended to be incomprehensible and went around the stalls and shops, deliberately going to a crowded place.
No matter where she goes, Wu Qingshuang always smiles and treats her politely, which is nothing more than a basic respect for others. What's even more rare is that Wu Qingshuang shows the demeanor that a man should have to the extreme, not only does the ladies give priority, but all the expenses are all-inclusive, envying a lot of girls who are hidden in the dark, and I wish that the heroine who was taken care of as a princess at this moment is herself.
After visiting for more than an hour, Wu Qingshuang chose a teahouse with a good faΓ§ade to sit in, and Miss Jiang deliberately chose a more remote seat on the second floor. After shopping all the way and chatting all the way, how could Wu Qingshuang not be able to guess Miss Jiang's thoughts?
Wu Qingshuang said straight to the point: "Miss Jiang, if you want to make friends with Zaixia, there is naturally no problem, if the girl has other ideas, I still persuade the girl to give up!" I'm used to wandering outside, and this time I'm just stopping by the tomb, and I won't stay long. β
Miss Jiang's good smile from beginning to end suddenly froze, and these words undoubtedly poured cold water not only on her, but also on other girls who paid attention. They are still counting on finding a good husband for themselves! With his handsome appearance, talent, and generosity, the most important thing is to treat women with respect and consideracy, and a good man of standards!
Miss Jiang said stiffly: "Won't the prince not come back after leaving Lingdu?" β
Wu Qingshuang said: "Maybe." Miss Jiang was born in an official family and has a noble status, but she is only a businessman, and the elders in the family will definitely not agree. "No matter how big the business is, after all, it is a grass people, and there are a few people in the big official positions who are willing to let their daughters be wronged, which she knows very well.
Miss Jiang naturally knew about it, but she still didn't give up and said, "Childe refuses to be like this, but he already has a favorite woman?" The ears pricked up for an answer.
Wu Qingshuang said: "Not for the time being." β
The ears were slightly stunned, what do you mean?
Wu Qingshuang continued: "There have been a few relationships in Xia, one is really interesting to those women, and the other is to cultivate sentiment for art, otherwise how to enrich feelings and make the paintings full and moving? The duration of the relationship is usually as short as seven days and as long as three months. "She's seen a lot of scumbags, and she plays a decent role.
"You ......" Seeing that she confessed honestly and did not seem to be lying, Miss Jiang blushed with anger on the spot, inhaled heavily in her chest, and left her alone angrily leaving the teahouse, and the good feeling she had when she wandered all the way collapsed in an instant.
Looking down from the window, seeing Miss Jiang stepping out of the teahouse and walking away, Wu Qingshuang showed a triumphant smile: Great! What I want is the effect of not being entangled by women. There's no way to hurt the girls' hearts, it's for their good.
Everyone is gone, when will you not slip away at this time?
Out of the teahouse, Wu Qingshuang specially chose a more remote road to Wei Huazhen's mansion. The woman who came up to entangle her ran away for the time being, and the remaining challengers were still eyeing themselves, and the vicinity of the inn must be stared at tightly, and if you don't want to get into the tiger's mouth, don't go back in a short time.
Fortunately, the clues revealed by the young master of the Wei family are only about her, and they have nothing to do with Wei Huazhen, and the area around the mansion is much cleaner.
Mingzhen Garden, the annex that the monarch of Anling gave to his beloved son Wei Huazhen two years ago, because there is no title such as prince, the mansion has to be used as a courtyard. Wei Huazhen ran away all the year round and rarely stayed in the imperial city to live. Therefore, there are no families in the annex. When Wei Huazhen was not there, the garden was directly handed over to the emperor's jurisdiction, and people were regularly sent to take care of it; When he returned, a random group of people waited for him.
The door was not locked, and there was no figure for a long time, and maybe something ran away, so Wu Qingshuang simply went in to find someone by herself.
"Brother, you're not here! Is there any living in the house? Wu Qingshuang shouted and walked around the house.
Hearing the shout, Wei Huazhen put down the teacup and answered the door: "Here, don't scare away!" Suddenly, the slender figure turned over from outside and jumped into the living room.
When I looked closely, I couldn't help but be slightly stunned when I saw that the person who came was actually dressed as a woman, but I quickly figured it out again. Thinking back to the waves of wind outside in the past two days, I should have changed my outfit back in order to avoid the limelight.
"I would have let you wear this outfit and live in directly, but you refused, insisting that you were afraid of becoming the target of a group of women, and the current situation is not the same." Wei Huazhen said leisurely.
Wu Qingshuang rolled her eyes: "At least now most of the eyes outside are focused on the inn, and the courtyard is relatively safe." As he spoke, he poured a glass of water, picked a seat and sat down, crossed his legs, and looked lazy.
Seeing that the teacup was against Wu Qingshuang's lips, Wei Huazhen hurriedly shouted, "Wait, don't drink it." β
After a pause, Wu Qingshuang widened her eyes and said meaningfully: "What, you put other condiments in the tea?" "There are many kinds of condiments, it can be a seasoning or a poison of some kind.
"Of course not." Wei Huazhen rolled his eyes back.
Wu Qingshuang pouted and drank a glass. As soon as the water was in his stomach, a pungent spicy sensation choked his throat with a sharp cough. "Ahem...... What kind of wine, ahem...... It's spicy to me! Ahem......"
Wei Huazhen casually took a cup of undrunk tea and poured water into her mouth while patting Wuqingshuang on the shoulder. "Whoever told you to drink indiscriminately, suffer hardship!"
Wu Qingshuang eased up a little, glanced at a certain righteous brother, and was too lazy to say a word.
The intimate behavior of the two fell into the eyes of the third person. He stayed in this hall all the time, never leaving half a step, but what he didn't expect was that the two of them would forget him for a while, as transparent.
Master Qi couldn't help but clear his throat and reminded loudly: "Where did the wild girl dare to be so rude, do you know where this place is?" β
"I know, this is the mansion of the Sixth Highness of Anling Kingdom, Mingzhen Garden." Wu Qingshuang said impatiently, her eyes looked around, but she didn't give Master Qi a look.
