Yang Peng played for a while, and then began to sing: "The trouble caused by the moon is all your fault, falling in love with me easily, making me unconsciously satisfied with the vanity of being loved." It's all your fault, and your favor is a temptation. It's all your fault, and in your eyes, there is always a haze of love and pity that makes people love and pity. It's all your fault, your infatuated dream, like a spell, who else can you be stupid for if you love it? I admit that it is all the moon that is to blame, and that night is too beautiful and gentle, so I want to go to the white head with you in an instant. I admit that it's all the fault of the oath, but it is like sugar and honey that is the most moving, and no matter how much the heart is like steel, it will become soft and soft. ……”

When Yang Peng first began to sing, many talented people still showed no more contempt than this, but gradually, everyone couldn't help but be immersed in it, and some people couldn't help but move along with the melody. Later, everyone was immersed in an affectionate and tender atmosphere, and their hearts couldn't help but rise with infinite love and pity for their sweetheart, and the kind of heart that wanted to see Yang Peng out of trouble was gone.

Yang Peng finished singing and continued to hum, his eyes always looked at Chai Yonghui, love lingered, Chai Yonghui was afraid that she was the most excited and happiest woman at the moment, her beautiful eyes looked at Yang Peng, with affection and tenderness, a pair of slender hands couldn't help but put on Yang Peng's thighs. Zhao Xiangxiang looked at Yang Peng stupidly, Luo Yanran also looked at Yang Peng, but due to the curtain, she couldn't see her expression, as for all the talents, most of them were infected by this song, and many of them couldn't help but hum along with Yang Peng, only a few of them stared at Yang Peng with a gloomy face and jealousy.

Yang Peng smiled at Chai Yonghui, Chai Yonghui's heart couldn't help but ripple, and he just wanted to throw himself into the arms of his eldest brother. Yang Peng picked up the jade flute and played a few verses, and then continued to sing, the lyrics were the same as the above, but the combination was slightly different, so he sang it twice repeatedly, and finally ended in a flute music. Almost everyone felt unsatisfied, looking at Yang Peng's eyes couldn't help but reveal the taste of worship, Zhuang Shaocheng, Shang Shiheng and a few others stared at Yang Peng with gloomy expressions, the previous contempt was naturally gone, and all that was left was jealousy, and that jealousy was like an uncontrollable flame, burning their chests. wants to suppress Yang Peng, but the previous poems have exhausted their inspiration and talent, and they are not as touching as the other party's song, how can they make poems beyond this song! As soon as I thought about it, I was even more jealous.

Yang Peng didn't care about other people's eyes, and said to Chai Yonghui with a smile: "This is given to you by the eldest brother, do you like it?" ”

Chai Yonghui's eyes were full of brilliance, Fang's heart was full of tender love, desperate to throw herself into Yang Peng's arms, just wanting to be a coquettish little woman in his arms. Everyone finally came back to their senses from the tender atmosphere woven by the song, and saw the two men openly and passionately hugging each other, and their faces changed drastically, and they all looked at each other, and each of them showed a very shocked look. However, Zhuang Shaocheng and Shang Shiheng were happy in their hearts, and they both felt that although the performance of these two people was unexpected, they had each other's dragon yang habits, and it was impossible for Miss Yanran to like this kind of person. ……

The banquet was dispersed, Yang Peng and Chai Yonghui left the Zhao Mansion, Zhao Ming and his wife nodded and sent the two out of the gate with a smile on their faces, and Wang Kai and other guards who had already come to wait outside the Zhao Mansion immediately came forward and saluted: "Master, Niangniang!" Those talented men saw from afar that Sergeant Yanyun came to greet Yang Peng and Chai Yonghui, and they affirmed the identities of Yang Peng and Chai Yonghui. Most of the talents, except for those who know Chai Yonghui, so far they don't know Yang Peng's identity.

Yang Peng and Chai Yonghui rode on the horses that Wang Kai brought them, and then said goodbye to Zhao Ming and his wife, and went back to the house under the escort of the guards.

Zhao Ming and his wife couldn't help but tremble with excitement when they saw Yang Peng greet them when he left. Seeing Yang Peng and them go away, they didn't reluctantly return home until they couldn't see them.

Yang Peng and Chai Yonghui were walking on the street, and it had just entered midnight at this time, and many places in the distance were still brightly lit, and the noise came from afar. Today's Tianjing New City can be described as a city that never sleeps in the Central Plains, although it is prosperous and lively during the day, but it is another beautiful and noisy scene at night, and the scene seems to have surpassed the scene before the invasion of the Khitans.

Belch......! At the entrance of the alley in the distance, two drunks were bending over and vomiting on their shoulders, although Yang Peng and his party were far away from the two drunkards, they still smelled the strong smell of alcohol.

Chai Yonghui showed a look of disgust, turned his head, and looked at Yang Peng with infatuated eyes. Yang Peng saw it, smiled slightly, reached over with his left hand, and held her slender hand. Chai Yonghui suddenly moved and said, "This song only belongs to me!" The tone revealed the brutal taste of the eldest lady. Yang Peng smiled, glanced at Chai Yonghui, and said with a smile: "It was originally given to you, so naturally it belongs to you alone!" Chai Yonghui's delicate face was flushed, and her beautiful eyes revealed the affection of the veins. ……

In the backyard of Zhao's mansion, under the bright moonlight, I saw a fairy-like white shadow walking into the water pavilion and coming behind Zhao Xiangxiang. At this time, Zhao Xiangxiang was wearing a water-green long skirt, standing near the water, although it was not as good as Luo Yanran's peerless immortality, but it was also very graceful and moving.

"Sister!" Luo Yanran stood behind Zhao Xiangxiang and called, although she couldn't see her expression due to the veil covering, but there seemed to be a hint of a smile in her tone. Zhao Xiangxiang, who was thinking about her thoughts, was shocked, quickly turned around, saw Luo Yanran, happily held Luo Yanran's hands, and asked, "Sister, haven't you rested yet?" ”

Luo Yanran sat on the couch next to the water pavilion and said very angrily: "I was beaten by that Yan Wang's subordinates today, and I was angry, where can I sleep!" ”

Zhao Xiangxiang sat down beside Luo Yanran and said with a smile: "Big brother is not malicious, that's just his opinion." Luo Yanran looked at Zhao Xiangxiang and teased: "Sister is really very different from this general!" When Zhao Xiangxiang heard this, she couldn't help blushing, turned her face, and said in a voice like a gnat: "I really don't know what my sister is talking about, what is the difference between me and others?" ”

Luo Yanran smiled and deliberately raised her voice: "Really? So why was there only a jar of spirits just for him? The sister knew that the little sister liked osmanthus wine, but she didn't pay attention to it at all, but she remembered to prepare a jar of spirits for him! In my sister's heart, isn't it clear which is more important? ”

Zhao Xiangxiang said with a flushed face: "It's my sister's carelessness, sister, don't be surprised!" ”

Luo Yanran smiled and said: "It's not that my sister is careless, it's really that my sister's mind is all on that general, so that other things can't be put into my heart!" Zhao Xiangxiang hung her head, blushing and delicate, did not speak, and then sighed faintly, her eyes revealing a sad and resentful color.

Luo Yanran held Zhao Xiangxiang's slender hand and said, "Sister, there are so many good men in the world, don't put your mind on him." Zhao Xiangxiang sighed, looked at the water surface with the moonlight, and said faintly: "My sister is a married woman, where is she worthy of him, my sister doesn't want to be able to stay with him for a long time, as long as I can see him all the time, I will be satisfied!" Retracted his gaze, glanced at Luo Yanran, and said with a smile: "There are many good men in the world, but only the eldest brother has saved me from danger more than once!" In fact, even if my eldest brother is willing to marry me, I will never marry him! ……”

Luo Yanran asked puzzledly, "Why is this?" Zhao Xiangxiang sighed leisurely, "My eldest brother has saved me in danger several times, I am sincerely grateful to him, treat him as an elder brother, and I do like him a little in my heart, but I have endless love and bitter lovesickness for Liu Qi, so it is impossible for me to marry anyone again!" Luo Yanran sighed and said with great admiration: "Sister, you are amazing!" Zhao Xiangxiang smiled bitterly and shook her head.

Luo Yanran said: "Let's not talk about this!" Then he asked Zhao Xiangxiang and said, "Sister, I don't think it's easy for your eldest brother!" Zhao Xiangxiang smiled slightly and said; That's nature. His heart moved, and he smiled: "Sister, it's better to guess the identity of my brother." ”

Luo Yanran frowned and said, "I've been guessing his identity since just now. Glancing at Zhao Xiangxiang, he said: "This person has an awe-inspiring majesty, and I have seen a lot of various characters in my little sister, including ministers and generals. However, I have never seen a figure with such majesty as him, as if the mountains are standing up, and people can't help but have the urge to worship! "And this man's speech is very extraordinary!" Raising his head, he said in an uncertain and shocked tone: "He, he can't be the King of Yan, right?" ”

Zhao Xiangxiang smiled and exclaimed: "My sister is really extremely smart, I actually guessed his identity just by seeing him!" Luo Yanran heard Zhao Xiangxiang say this, and she couldn't believe it, "He, he is really the Yan King who is the mighty world?" Zhao Xiangxiang smiled and nodded.

Luo Yanran said angrily: "Sister, you are actually the sworn sister of King Yan, and you don't even say such a big thing to my sister!" Zhao Xiangxiang hurriedly explained: "Sister, don't be angry, my sister didn't mean to hide it from my sister, I just think there is nothing to say about this kind of thing!" Luo Yanran said with a smile; My sister is worried that my little sister will misunderstand you and become inflammatory! Zhao Xiangxiang nodded, "That's it." Luo Yanran said sincerely: "Sister, my little sister knows that you are definitely not that kind of person!" Zhao Xiangxiang smiled with relief.

Luo Yanran suddenly said angrily: "I have long heard that King Yan looks down on scholars, and I didn't believe it at first, but today I finally saw it!" Hmph, in his eyes, I'm afraid that the reader is not as good as a farmer! ”

Zhao Xiangxiang said: "Actually, the eldest brother doesn't look down on readers, but he just feels that the status of traditional readers has been too high for a long time. Luo Yanran said angrily: "This is not looking down on readers? ”

Zhao Xiangxiang stroked the hair on her sideburns and said: "Big brother thinks that poetry, calligraphy, painting, and poetry are indeed very beautiful, can make people feel comfortable, and can make people happy and forget their worries,......" Speaking of this, he suddenly stopped, his delicate face flushed, and he looked infinitely shy. Luo Yanran asked puzzledly, "Sister, why don't you continue?" Zhao Xiangxiang shook her head and said, "The words in the back are really, really hard to say, and not good to hear." ”

Luo Yanran wanted to listen to Yang Peng's remarks now, so she was willing to stop and said: "It doesn't matter if it sounds good or not, as long as what he says makes sense." Sister, what did King Yan say? ”

Zhao Xiangxiang blushed and said: "He, he said, he said, qin, chess, calligraphy and painting can make people feel comfortable, in fact, the famous prostitutes in the Red Pavilion of the Qinglou can make people happy and forget their worries!" ......" stopped at this point, looking shy and embarrassed. Luo Yanran didn't speak, but because of the veil on her face, she couldn't see the look on her face clearly. The two women sat in the water pavilion and did not speak, and the atmosphere seemed a little awkward.

After a while, Luo Yanran snorted and said angrily: "Sure enough, I look down on the readers, and I actually compare the scholars with the fan-headed prostitutes in the Qinglou Red Pavilion!" After a pause, he sighed and said faintly: "Although I don't want to admit it, but, what he said, it seems, there seems to be some truth!" Think about it carefully, what is the use of qin, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and songs? Like, it really seems to be the same as a fan and a famous prostitute, but it can make people happy! At this point, I couldn't help but feel excited, and I only felt that the name of my talented woman was nothing great. Immediately, I couldn't help but feel unconvinced, and said: "Qin, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and songs are useless, so the Confucian principles will not be useless in governing the country, right?" ”

Zhao Xiangxiang nodded, "Sister Yonghui told me about related things, and according to her, the eldest brother thinks that Confucianism is also useful. For example, the ideas of loyalty, filial piety, and righteousness, but the eldest brother's interpretation of these ideas is completely different from the Confucian tradition! Luo Yanran showed curiosity.

Zhao Xiangxiang paused and continued: "For example, this loyalty, the eldest brother thinks that loyalty should not be loyal to any family or surname, it should be loyal to the Huaxia clan and our bloodline. This is the greatest morality, everything should be in the service of this, because of this, if the emperor is not enough to protect the Chinese people so that the Chinese people can live and work in peace and contentment, and cannot effectively develop all aspects of society, then he will lose his qualification to be the emperor, and anyone can overthrow him! ......" Luo Yanran showed a look of shock, such a thought, she couldn't think of it before, the first feeling was that King Yan's idea was really amazing, wasn't he afraid of others rebelling against him? However, after thinking about it carefully, I felt that such a thought seemed to be correct and in line with the laws of heaven. Thinking like this, I couldn't help but have more doubts in my heart.

At this time, I only listened to Zhao Xiangxiang continue: "This 'filial piety', the eldest brother doesn't think that unconditional filial piety should not be unconditionally filial to parents, for example, if parents are very cruel to their children, then should their children still be filial to them?" The eldest brother believes that any feelings or morality are mutual, not unilateral giving, the so-called father's filial piety, only the 'kindness' of parents, and the 'filial piety' of children, but the eldest brother also believes that some basic responsibilities still need to be borne, such as parents have to bear the responsibility of raising their children, and children should also bear the responsibility of raising elderly parents. By the way, the eldest brother also emphasized responsibility, responsibility is based on morality, everyone grows up in this world, has their own responsibilities, a person does not need to be earth-shattering, just need to do their own responsibilities, it is a respectable person. ”

Luo Yanran listened and thought at the same time, but her heart was like turning over the river and the sea, the words she heard today can be said to be something she had never heard or thought about, and the impact on her was very huge.

raised his head to look at Zhao Xiangxiang and asked, "Sister Yonghui that my sister said is Princess Chai, right?" Zhao Xiangxiang nodded and said with a smile: "It's the handsome boy who came with the eldest brother." Luo Yanran nodded and said, "I've already guessed it." This Princess Chai is also a rare talented woman! Dingzhou Chai Miss Chai Yonghui, I've heard of this name before! ”……

Shang Shiheng returned home, recalled the scene at today's banquet, and frowned slightly. He originally wanted to take this opportunity to win Luo Yanran's heart, but he didn't expect to meet Zhuang Shaocheng first, and then be robbed of the limelight by those two unknown people, as a result, Luo Yanran's attention was greatly distracted, and he didn't show much attention to him Shang Shiheng. Shang Shiheng couldn't help but be indignant, and muttered, "Bastard, those who oppose me will not end well!" ”

There was a sound of footsteps at the door, Shang Shiheng turned to look at the door, and saw a middle-aged man in luxurious clothes, blank eyes, and a bloated body walking in. Shang Shiheng hurriedly stepped forward to visit: "Father! It turned out that the middle-aged man who came in was none other than Shang Shiheng's father, the contemporary head of the Shang family, Shang Conglong. Shang Conglong Qiren, when he was young, he was also famous on the gold list, and he was a high-level waiter in the Ministry of Rites. This merchant is considered the most traditional family.

Shang Conglong walked to a coffee table and sat down, glanced at Shang Shiheng, and asked, "Didn't you get Miss Yanran's favor?" Shang Shiheng said with a look of annoyance; It was originally a matter of nine out of ten, but it was disrupted by Zhuang Shaocheng's bastard! ”

Shang Conglong frowned, "Zhuang Shaocheng? The young master of the dealer? Shang Shiheng nodded. Shang Conglong snorted coldly, "A broken scholar clan actually dares to go against our merchants, he is really impatient!" Shang Shiheng said: "This kid is indeed impatient!" By the way, there were two people at the banquet, one surnamed Yang and the other surnamed Chai," Speaking of this, I couldn't help but think of the stunning and enchanting man, and my heart couldn't help but flutter, I came back to my senses, and continued: "These two people seem to be very close friends of Miss Zhao Xiangxiang, and they are also a little talented, and they also have their share in the troubles at the banquet tonight." ”

Shang Conglong said indifferently: "Zhao Xiangxiang's friend must not be a great person, but there is no need to take it to heart." If they continue to ignore the height of the sky, the toad wants to eat swan meat, and coercion and temptation drive them away! ”

Shang Shiheng said with a smile: "That's not necessary, although these two people made trouble tonight, but they are both guys who are still addicted to Longyang, Miss Yanran will never take a fancy to them, we don't have to be distracted by them." Shang Conglong's eyes were originally blank, but when he heard Shang Shiheng say that those two guys were good at Longyang's fetish, his eyes actually lit up, revealing an evil smile, he smiled, and said, "I see, that's trouble-free." Then he frowned, "Then that Zhuang Shaocheng is a trouble after all!" ……”

Shang Shiheng's eyes flashed with fierceness, and he said, "Father, let's not do it again!" ”

Shang Conglong thought for a while, glanced at Shang Shiheng, and asked, "Then you continue to chase Miss Luojia slowly?" It won't be until the year or month that this will come to fruition! And no one can guarantee that there will be no other complications in the middle, if Miss Luo has a crush on other men, wouldn't we be a bamboo basket for nothing? When Shang Shiheng heard his father's words, he also felt that it was very possible, frowned, and said in embarrassment: "This, I'm afraid this is difficult to control!" ”

Shang Conglong said: "There is another problem, after all, Miss Luo's family is in Yangzhou, and she refuses to stay in Bianliang for a long time, so you don't have time to take your time!" The Luo family not only has a prominent family background, but also has countless properties, whether you can win Miss Luo family is very important to our big things! Miss Luojia finally came to Bianliang, we have to seize this opportunity, and there must be no mistakes! ”

Shang Shiheng frowned and nodded, looked at his father, and asked, "Father, then what should we do?" ”

Shang Conglong smiled coldly, glanced at Shang Shiheng, and said, "I have long expected that you would not be able to win Luo Yanran's heart in one fell swoop, how can this kind of woman be so easy to get started." So another plan has already been planned. As he spoke, he stood up, put his right hand into the sleeve of his left hand, took out a small white porcelain bottle, displayed it in front of Shang Shiheng, and said: "This is an elixir that my father got from a mage, regardless of whether it is a man or a woman, as long as he takes a little bit, even if he is a chaste martyr, he will become another person in an instant!" Shang Shiheng's eyes lit up, revealing excitement.

Shang Conglong continued: "Tomorrow, let's invite Luo Yanran to the house, hehe, add a little bit of this elixir to her drink, and the rest will be up to you!" Shang Shiheng said excitedly: "In this way, I am not afraid that if she does not marry me, the property of the Luo family will be ours!" The father and son looked at each other and laughed. ……

Early the next morning, Shang Shiheng couldn't wait to come to Zhao's mansion in person to invite him, but to his slight disappointment, Luo Yanran had just gone to the street with Zhao Xiangxiang. Shang Shiheng couldn't see Luo Yanran, so he had to hand over the invitation to the Zhao couple and then leave.

Zhao Xiangxiang led Luo Yanran to wander around the market, the two girls were very interested, they were very interested in seeing everything, they always had to watch and discuss it carefully, and the personal maids of the two followed behind the two, and they were also very elated. In modern society, as soon as a woman goes shopping, she does not know that she is tired and completely ignores time, and in ancient times, the situation was exactly the same thousands of years ago.

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
