Chapter 158: Plum Blossom Flute

Yang Shucheng followed Wang Jigang to the front of the villa, only to see that the lights were bright in front of the villa, and sure enough, a group of bandits came.

Yang Shucheng ran closer, and the three thieves were fighting fiercely around a white-faced scholar.

Yang Shucheng looked at these four people and couldn't help but be shocked.

These three thieves are the "Taihang Three Heroes", they are Niu Shiming, Hu Liangjian, and Wang Bao.

Another white-faced scholar, holding a jade-colored flute in his hand, was fighting one to three, still calm.

The scholar is Handan's "Jade Flute Son" Xiong Songlin.

He also rescued Yang Shucheng, and also went to the Golden Persimmon Villa as a guest, and later killed Shi Renjun together in the Yunyin Ancient Temple in Hebei.

Yang Shucheng saw that both sides were friends, so he walked in and shouted:

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, everyone is brothers."

When the four of them looked at it, they all knew Yang Shucheng, and immediately stopped and greeted Yang Shucheng.

The owner of Wang Zhuang recognized Yang Shucheng, and saw that both sides were friends, and he didn't regard the "Taihang Three Heroes" as thieves, so he hurriedly invited them to the villa.

It turned out that the "Taihang Three Heroes" were in the deep mountains, and they gradually lacked food and wine, so they found out that Wangjia Villa had a lot of wine, so they led their brothers to attack Wangjiazhuang.

The servants who had the ability to follow Wang Ji just went out, and the "Taihang Sanxiong" led the crowd to surround Wangjiazhuang and was about to break in, but I didn't want to, Xiong Songlin just passed by here.

After asking the reason, the two sides fought, and the martial arts of the "Jade Flute Prince" were naturally very clever, and the "Taihang Three Heroes" had no choice but to fight around Xiong Songlin together.

It happened that Yang Shucheng came over, all of whom were his own brothers, so he was invited into the house by the owner of Wang Zhuang.

The Wang family is really a big family, and they immediately put down the wine and food to greet this group of people.

The subordinate brothers of the "Taihang Three Heroes" were arranged next door, and the silver candle in the main hall was hot, and the owner of Wang Zhuang kept raising his glass to accompany these high-rollers.

It turned out that Wang Jigang was kidnapped by Shi Renjun and sent a servant to rush back overnight to report the news, Wang Zhuang was about to send someone to save his son, and he didn't want to be entangled by the "Taihang Sanxiong", and he couldn't save his son in time.

When the family was reunited, the owner of the Wang Zhuang was the happiest, and kept persuading the guests to drink.

Drinking until late at night, "Taihang Sanxiong" led his subordinates to go back to the cottage, and the owner of Wang Zhuang was also generous, sending a cart of grain and two jars of wine, "Taihang Sanxiong" was happy.

"Taihang Sanxiong" said goodbye to Yang Shucheng and returned to the cottage overnight with wine and food.

Here, after drinking the wine, the owner of the Wang Zhuang arranged for the guests to sleep.

The next day, when the sun had risen, everyone got up and drank again, but this time the banquet was in the plum grove in the back garden.

In Meilin, there is a pavilion with a table of banquets, and Wang Jigang accompanies Xiong Songlin and Yang Shucheng to sit in the pavilion and drink.

A large hot pot with boiled mutton, the aroma wafts, and there are wild pheasants, wild muntjac and other mountain delicacies. There were four large braziers beside them, and the charcoal fire in them was burning vigorously, and although I drank in the open field, there was not a trace of wind, and I felt warm all over.

There were several domestic servants standing nearby.

The three of them drank until they were half-drunk.

Xiong Songlin said: "It's been cold for the past few days, and the plum blossoms are budding just won't open." ”

That Wang Jigang said: "If you want plum blossoms to bloom, what's so difficult?" I have a way. ”

"What's the solution?"

Can make plum blossoms open, this is a thousand difficult things, a few days ago the weather is warm, plum blossoms can open, these days the weather is cold, plum blossoms are not budding, can you make the weather warmer?

Wang Jigang said: "Of course I have a way. Come, go, and put a pot of charcoal under each plum tree. ”

"Yes." A few servants who were standing and waiting left in response.

Xiong Songlin couldn't help nodding, this is a good way.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the servants to bring several pots of charcoal fire, and put them under the plum tree, and the charcoal fire was burning vigorously, and the whole plum courtyard was steaming.

Wang Jigang said: "We drink wine and wait slowly for the plum blossoms to bloom." ”

The three of them were drinking.

Xiong Songlin said: "I'll play a song to urge the plum blossoms to open." ”

As he spoke, Xiong Songlin took out the jade flute, put it to his mouth and blew it.

Both of them stopped their glasses and listened to him play the flute, which was high-pitched and agitated, and it was the famous plum blossom song.

After a song, the three of them walked down the pavilion and walked to the plum forest, and their noses were already smelling a faint fragrance of plum blossoms.

The three of them walked along the incense, and sure enough, they saw a plum blossom half-blooming on a low branch.

The three of them stood under the plum blossom and watched it, it was ajar, as if it was a beautiful woman shy, fragrant and attractive.

The three of them were wandering under the flowers, at this time, the charcoal fire was vigorous, the heat was steaming, and at the time of a cup of tea, more than a dozen plum blossoms bloomed.

The aroma was ethereal, and the three of them returned to the plum pavilion to drink.

At this time, the corner door opened with a "squeak", and a girl walked in, which turned out to be Wang Hong.

Wang Hong walked to the pavilion and said hello, Wang Jigang asked, "Wang Hong, what are you doing here?" ”

Wang Hong said: "I heard that the plum blossoms here are blooming, and Miss asked me to pick a branch." ”

"Okay, you can pick a few nice ones."

Wang Hong picked a few plum blossoms and left.

The three of them played in the plum garden all day.

At night, Yang Shucheng slept in the guest room. In the middle of the night, he heard the sound of a hole flute outside, which couldn't help but remind him of Zhao Xiaolin from Golden Persimmon Villa.

Yang Shucheng was completely sleepy, immediately got dressed, and walked out of the room.

He followed the sound of the flute and came to the plum garden.

The door of the plum garden was not closed, Yang Shucheng walked in, the moonlight was hazy, and in the plum forest, there seemed to be a vague figure, could it be that Zhao Xiaolin came?

She has the ability to sneak into this plum garden.

Did she follow this plum fragrance?

Yang Shucheng hurriedly walked a few steps, and through the plum blossoms, he could see clearly, it turned out that it was not Zhao Xiaolin.

It was Wang Hongping and her maid Wang Hong.

Wang Hongping turned his head and also found Yang Shucheng, Yang Shucheng hurriedly walked a few steps and said:

"I've seen Miss."

Wang Hongping said: "It turns out that Yang Gongzi also came to enjoy plum blossoms? ”

Yang Shucheng said honestly: "I came to the plum garden when I heard the voice of the dong flute, it was really abrupt and disturbed the young lady." ”

"It's okay, I think this plum blossom is open during the day, lively and lively, at night, it is deserted, I think it is lonely, so I take Wang Hong to see the plum blossom."

Yang Shucheng said: "Miss's hole flute is really superb, adding a lot of color to the plum blossoms." ”

"Young Master Yang is polite, I'm really ugly. By the way, I haven't thanked Yang Gongzi for saving my brother. ”

Yang Shucheng said: "I just happened at the right time. “

At this time, the moonlight dissolves, the flower shadow is hazy, and the fragrance is ethereal.

The two came to the Mei Pavilion, sat down, and talked for a long time.

The next day up. Xiong Songlin, the "Jade Flute Prince", said goodbye, he heard that Li Zicheng was proclaimed emperor in Xi'an, and he would go to Xi'an to observe the situation.

Yang Shucheng also had to take the opportunity. Wang Jigang kept him for a few more days.

In the afternoon of this day, the family came to report that Tong Yuhui attacked Gongyi County, led troops back to the east, and robbed along the way in order to vent his anger.

He was coming along the foothills of Taihang Mountain towards Wangjiazhuang. Since he came with a team of two or three hundred people, Wang Jiazhuang expected that he would not be able to resist, and Wang Zhuang said:

"We avoided him and hid in the mountains."

It turned out that in the troubled times, thieves swarmed, and the owner of the Wang Zhuang had a foresight to build a villa in the deep mountains, and the grain and grass in the village had already been moved into the villa.

The owner of the Wang Zhuang gave an order, and the servants packed their bags, carried them into the carriage, and walked towards the mountain.

Yang Shucheng still has to go to see Zhao Xiaolin, so don't say goodbye. Wang Ji just made an appointment with him to say goodbye, and the people on both sides said goodbye.

After Yang Shucheng left, he did not go north, but walked into Wangjiazhuang and waited for Tong Yuhui's soldiers and horses to come, and he wanted to fight Tong Yuhui in order to avenge the killing of his father.
