Chapter 148: Liu Rushi, the head of "Qin Huai Bayan" (2)
But Liu Ru chose a completely different path from her husband. When the country was ruined, Liu Ru was faced with a dilemma, and she chose to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty. Although she came from a humble background, she was just a woman in a green building, but in terms of her integrity, she was far above those Nanming officials who groveled and greeted the Qing army outside the city gate.
Such a strange woman also made Lin Pingzhi a little curious... Because judging from his current understanding of the world, most of Liu Ru's character will not change, but the timeline is different.
He also developed a friendship with such a strange woman.
Soon Wei Xiaobao and his party came to the riverside, and there were already many guests on the flower boats, chatting lively.
Lin Pingzhi and Duolong were also surrounded by guards and came to the riverside welcome.
It was a middle-aged man who greeted the guests, and when he saw Lin Pingzhi and their carriage from a distance, he saw them coming, and hurriedly said with a smile on his face: "Master Wei, welcome, welcome." ”
At this time, Suo Etu, who was on the flower boat, saw Lin Pingzhi and the others early, and immediately walked over from the bridge quickly, and said enthusiastically: "Brother Wei, why didn't you come over earlier." ”
"Lord Suo."
The butlers and guards who greeted the guests next to them all bowed their heads respectfully.
Suo Etu is not wearing an official uniform but a brocade robe, and he is holding a folding fan in his hand, which looks like that, but his figure is a little fat.
He walked over quickly, came to Lin Pingzhi's side, stretched out his hand and grabbed him, and smiled kindly: "Let's go, Brother Wei, brother, I'll take you to go shopping... I'll tell you.... ”
Lin Pingzhi was also a little surprised, he didn't expect that this Suo Etu martial arts was not weak, although he was not a hidden master, but he could also be regarded as a good hand.
Lin Pingzhi didn't refuse, he was pulled by Suo Etu and walked on the flower boat together.
As soon as he got on the boat, he was greeted by several people he didn't know, smiling all over his face.
When these people saw Wei Xiaobao coming, they all immediately surrounded them, one by one, all with flattery and flattery on their faces.
"Master Wei, it's been a long time."
"Master Wei, I heard that you were injured some time ago, and you have been busy with government affairs and did not go to see you, don't blame you."
"I just came to my house with a few wild ginsengs of good vintage, and I will let someone send them to your house later."
Listening to the compliments of these people, Lin Pingzhi really didn't know how to answer, so he could only smile and salute one by one.
Suo Etu on the side also saw Lin Pingzhi's uneasiness and felt a little strange in his heart, but he didn't care, but hurriedly pulled Lin Pingzhi to the side, and said, "Brother Wei.. I'll take you to a good place, Mingzhu They are all waiting upstairs, just now I was talking about how can this kind of occasion be missing Brother Wei. ”
With that, he walked upstairs.
When I got to the second floor, I walked to the corner by the window.
"Brother Wei, you are finally here, I will say how can there be less Brother Wei on this occasion."
"Come on, come on, it's a good location here."
"Hahahaha......"
"A group of big men are talking nonsense, it seems that they have a good relationship with Wei Xiaobao."
Lin Pingzhi also pretended to be Wei Xiaobao and answered one by one, but he was also a little vigilant in his heart, he was afraid of showing his feet.
Doron on the side walked over and sat in the crowd.
On the side, Suo Etu saw that he was not in the right state today, so he came to Lin Pingzhi's side, and said strangely: "Brother Wei, what's wrong with you?" ”
Seeing Suo Etu asking himself, Lin Pingzhi hurriedly recited nonsense. "Since the last injury, I haven't recovered well, and I still feel a little weak."
Hearing this, Suo Etu hurriedly said: "It's very important to take care of your body, and we all count on Brother Wei to bring us rich...... But there is one thing, Brother Wei doesn't have to take it to heart, there are still a few famous doctors in the world who can cure your hidden disease. That Xue Muhua Xue Divine Doctor is one of them, now he lives in the capital, and when Brother Wei arrives, I will personally introduce you to you, and I will cure your illness. ”
Haha, that's good, then it's troublesome brother. “
That's right, let's relax tonight, let's relax and enjoy this beautiful night, he said as he pointed to a group of people next to him: "I'm going to play two, Brother Wei, do you want to come together?" ”
"Brother, go play, I want to walk around and take a look at it casually." Lin Pingzhi shook his head and said, with a helpless smile on his face.
Seeing that he was not interested, Suo Etu didn't say anything, but joined the group and played with dice. He paid attention to the movements around him while playing, and at the same time paid attention to Lin Pingzhi's every move. He looked a little absent-minded, as if he was waiting for something.
Lin Pingzhi slowly walked to a place next to him, leaned against the wall, and closed his eyes.
He wasn't really sleeping, but was thinking about some clues these days.
Before you know it, the crowd on the boat is surging, and the poetry meeting on the ship is about to kick off.
He got up and left his seat and walked to a room. From the very beginning, he had his disguised clothes ready, which he changed into as soon as he entered the room.
When he walked out of the room, his appearance had completely changed, no longer the previous Wei Xiaobao, but transformed into a handsome and suave appearance.
Follow the crowd to the hall of the flower boat, the field is already very lively, and you can see the literati and the children of dignitaries everywhere.
They were all listening to the music of the kite on the stage.
Those people looked at Lin Ping strangely, but they didn't care, they turned their heads and continued to revel in the music.
When the woman on the stage saw Lin Pingzhi coming in, she couldn't help but smile and bowed her head slightly.
Lin Pingzhi was also a little surprised, but he nodded politely, and then found a place to sit down.
Seeing that everyone looked fascinated by listening to the music, no one spoke, and couldn't help but be very bored.
Lin Pingzhi yawned slightly, and then took care of himself.
A scholar not far from him frowned and looked at him with a slight disgust.
When the song ended, the woman on the stage looked at Lin Pingdao:
"This son, how is the little woman playing?"
Hearing this, Lin Pingzhi also clapped his hands and opened his mouth and said: "Good, good, it seems like a dream, it is both true and false, the sound of the piano is like a long stream of water, and the waves crash on the shore." ”
The woman on the stage rolled her eyes when she heard this, and said with a smile: "The son will make fun of the little girl......"
Lin Pingzhi said that he was also very helpless, and then said: "How can it be, if the girl doesn't like to listen to the compliments.... It's okay for me to say something bad against my will..."
Everyone present immediately laughed when they heard this, and the scene was extremely harmonious for a while.
However, many people saw that he was close to the woman on stage, and they couldn't help but be vigilant.
One of them got up and asked, "I wonder who this brother is..?" Why haven't you seen it before? ”
"Oh, I haven't been here for long."
