Chapter 168: Fixed Angle

The bronze mirror reflects a gorgeous face.

Li Jilan wiped a little lipstick, thought about it but wiped it off, changed her plain makeup, straightened her face, and made herself look more serious.

She has to arrange a group of servants to rehearse today, and she has to be able to control the scene.

"Ji Lanzi, are you okay?" Li Tengkong asked outside the door, irritable because he had waited too long, and he couldn't do the Dao Naturally.

"Here we are." Li Jilan opened the door, naturally took Li Tengkong's hand, and rushed out together.

Walking out of the backyard, she remembered that she was a female crown and couldn't walk like this.

"Ah, I forgot to take it."

"It's too late, let's go."

Today is going to Xue Bai's new house, and this matter is inexplicably a little exciting.

How does that feel? It's like going to the depths of a famous mountain to visit the abode of the gods...... Youxian Cave?

Li Jilan hurriedly shook her head and scattered this gratuitous association.

Xue Bai's new mansion is in the west of Xuanyangfang, only one street away from the Lady of Qiuguo's Mansion, and the area is a quarter of the Lady's Mansion of Qiuguo, which is really luxurious and vast.

"Recently, I've been helping to keep an eye on the restoration, so let's show you around.

Du Wulang led the Xue family through the gates of the courtyard, pointing as he went.

"This house is much bigger than Du's house, and it's better to have some names for the yard....... huh?"

After a long time, when he turned around, he found that there was only one Xue Sanniang left behind him.

She has been well nourished in recent years, and she has gradually grown into a slim girl, and Du Wulang is a little embarrassed every time he looks at her.

"What about Xue Bai?"

"The sixth brother has already turned to the big courtyard over there to watch the singing."

"Then he won't tell me." Du Wulang turned his head rather unnaturally.

"Sixth brother can't bear to interrupt Gorou."

Along the way, everyone saw everything fresh, and no one listened to Du Wulang, and they fell behind. Xue Sanniang felt embarrassed for him, but she didn't want to lose his face, so she had to follow silently.

Du Wulang didn't feel ashamed, and said a little surprised: "There seems to be a mandarin duck on the pool over there, do you want to go and see it?" ”

"Isn't Gorou going to see a rap? There are so many beautiful women. ”

"Ah, I, I'm tired of seeing beauties, so I like to look at flowers, birds, fish and insects."

"If there are mandarin ducks in winter." Xue Sanniang lowered her head and whispered, "Then, it's okay to take a look." ”

"Ah, yes, yes."

Du Wulang took advantage of Xue Sanniang's inattention, patted his head hard, and secretly scolded himself in his heart for saying useless stupid words like "tired of seeing beauties".

"In the past, Mr. came to Yuzhenguan as a guest, but today it is rare to come to Mr.'s house, and Mr. Lao greeted him."

Li Jilan arrived at Xue's house, lifted the car curtain, and saw Xue Bai coming to greet her, her heart was so happy, and she smiled when she arrived.

Li Tengkong is not as unproductive as her, holding a master's frame and making fun of him, and said: "Come to rehearse for him, he will be so attentive." ”

"Vacant understands me." Xue Bai answered casually and said, "I've just arrived, and I haven't fully visited here yet." ”

He led them inside.

Li Tengkong is actually very tasteful, looked around, and praised: "Your house is really well-laid out and elegantly furnished." ”

Xue Bai said: "It was arranged by the right minister, and he bothered to do it." ”

Li Tengkong didn't know how to answer this, and muttered in a low voice: "Then you have a good relationship recently." ”

The three of them got lost, walked straight to the small pond in the back garden, bumped into Du Wulang and Xue Sanniang who were watching the snow scene, asked for directions, and then went around to the courtyard where the audition was played.

I heard the music from afar, smelled the fragrant wind, and when I passed through a courtyard gate, I saw a beautiful woman like a cloud, someone was clearing her throat, and someone was twisting her waist, which made people dazzled.

There are also many beautiful people in Yuzhenguan, but most of them are dressed plainly, and they are far from the gorgeous feeling here.

Li Jilan couldn't help but whisper: "The beauty of the courtyard, this is what the man wants, right?" ”

If Xue Bai didn't want to keep these beauties for himself, but just talked about art, then this place was indeed far inferior to Liyuan.

Xue Bai waved his hand and said indifferently: "It's far less than the pear orchard." ”

This sentence seems to be a bit rebellious, but it also depends on how to understand it.

Li Tengkong knew his temperament and couldn't help but nod approvingly.

She has a Taoist heart, and she does not have a heart of comparison because of these beauties, but pays attention to a few musicians who are practicing and playing.

"The skills are so good." She sighed with emotion: "In such a comparison, we dare to point out to them with such ability? ”

Xue Bai said: "It's okay, three stinkers, Zhuge Liang." ”

His words were quite fresh, which made the second daughter feel both funny and a little disgusted, this natural girlish attitude, but it was more moving than the beauty next to her deliberately flirting with her amorousness.

The three of them walked into the hall and finally talked about the drama.

"Mrs. Cui's candidate, I decided on Pang Sanniang."

Xue Bai said: "She is the same age and appearance, and she has a pursuit of performance, she can play both a niece and an aunt, you will know when you see it later; As for the candidates for Cui Yingying and the matchmaker...... There is a singer named Nian Nu who should be the most outstanding, I think it's good, but denying her is up to you to see, after all, I can't hear the difference in singing skills; The other is Zhang Sheng's candidate, I will go to the teaching workshop tomorrow to choose. ”

From this, it can be seen that although Nian Nu's appearance and singing skills are good, he is not as motivated as Pang Sanniang to impress Xue Bai more, and then he directly determines it.

Li Tengkong said: "Zhang Sheng's candidate, we have an idea to tell you.... And the county lord, what do you think? ”

"She?" When Xue Bai heard this, he subconsciously wanted to refuse, and said, "How can she pretend to be Zhang Sheng as a woman?"

"She is good at dressing as a man, she is both heroic and soft, which is in line with our impression of Zhang Sheng's appearance, Mr. will know it at first sight." Li Jilan said.

"Can you sing? This play is not easy to sing. ”

"Is there a saint's granddaughter who can't sing?"

Xue Bai was still a little reluctant, thinking that if Li Yuesu refused to behave well, it would be very troublesome to marry herself if she deliberately lost.

Li Tengkong knew what he was thinking, and said: "She said that she must try her best to help Xue Lang win the gamble, and her character should be credible." ”

"Let's wait until we select a group of people, and then let's compare."

"Okay."

Xue Bai didn't agree immediately, but he already thought in his heart that if he really let Li Yuesu sing, he would make Li Longji lose decently.

"Then I'm sorry for you." Xue Bai said: "I'll go to greet the two brothers of the Yan family." ”

"Can you bring Yan San's little lady over?"

"No, I'm afraid that it will be too noisy here and make her anxious, so I'll take her over to play when it's straightened out in the future."

"It's okay, it's hard for you to think about it."

Thesis speech, Li Jilan is better than Li Tengkong; But in terms of rhythm, Li Tengkong is slightly better.

Therefore, this time's casting, rehearsal, exploration of singing, etc., are all mainly based on Li Tengkong, supplemented by Li Jilan.

She listened to all the servants sing it once, and without hesitation, she directly decided that Nian Nu would sing Cui Yingying. As for the matchmaker, she was a little hesitant.

"How is Fan Nu?

"It's a little too flattering."

Li Jilan nodded, feeling a little wary of Fan Nu, she just saw that when Xue Bai went out, Fan Nu leaned in and put it on his arm, intentionally or unintentionally.

At this time, she deliberately asked, and seeing that Li Tengkong had no intention of using Fan Nu, she was relieved, and she didn't say much.

"Are the two real people here? I boiled some ginger soup to ward off the cold. ”

Li Tengkong turned his head and looked at it for a moment before he recognized that it was Fan Nu who came, but she had washed off all her makeup and changed into a double-ring bun. This is not waiting for the results to come out, knowing that there is no hope of pretending to be Cui Yingying, and instead wants to pretend to be a matchmaker....... so motivated.

After serving the ginger soup and inviting Er Li to drink, Fan Nu asked, "Dare to ask the two real people what they think of the slave family's singing skills?" ”

"Good, excellent, and in good shape." Li Tengkong quickly glanced at her figure, but he was not very envious.

Fan Nu's eyes lit up and asked, "I wonder if the slave family can pretend to be a matchmaker?" ”

Li Tengkong said: "I will announce the result in public." In addition, I will also select two more groups of people to rehearse a total of three teams, one main and two deputies, in case of emergency, you don't have to rush. ”

Fan Nu put away the bowl and asked carelessly: "Please also ask the real person to advise, what are the shortcomings of the slave family?" ”

"You are both talented and beautiful, but your temperament is not like a matchmaker."

"Yes." Fan Nu lowered her head in response, and was about to turn around but said with a lot of mouth: "The slave family saw that the vacant son and Xue Lang were a good match, so they took the liberty to ask, I don't know..."

"You don't talk nonsense." Li Tengkong hurriedly interrupted, but he was not very angry in his heart.

However, when she looked at it again, she suddenly felt that Fan Nu's temperament was really like the matchmaker in her heart.

"The season is merry and Jiahua, the future is bright, and the twilight of happiness and kindness is full, and there is a singing voice in the Xue house in Xuanyangfang, with some drama, melodious and tactful, quite innovative.

From then on, it sang every day, like a small pear orchard.

Those who were staring at Xue Bai couldn't help but comment in their hearts when they saw the servants going in and out of the Xue Mansion.

"Sure enough, he is a servant favored by the saint, exactly the same as the saint."

Xue Bai still lives in the Xue Mansion of Changshoufang, and more often he is practicing martial arts, and learning the six arts of a gentleman with the Yan brothers.

He felt that Yan Quanming seemed to be a little lustful, and Yan Quanming always asked him why he didn't go to Xuanyangfang to see the beauty.

"There is always no shortage of beauties in the future, but the two brothers are about to return to Hebei.

"yes."

Yan Quanming said, "This trip back to Beijing has been long enough to report on work......."

In this peaceful atmosphere, Xue Bai was actually quietly paying attention to the situation in the imperial court. He didn't go to Wang Zhongsi to play again, but went to the Yuan Mansion after Yuan Zai moved to a new house.

Yuan Zai was very enthusiastic, pulled Xue Bai to sit down in the back hall, and was full of praise.

"Xue Lang is very gracious, the situation of the father-in-law seems to be much worse."

"Brother Yuan is scolding me?"

"I can't wait to kowtow to Xue Lang three times."

Near Zhu Zhechi, Yuan Zai now has a little more Yang Zhao's slippery, but fortunately, his poor experience in his early years made him quite deep and covered this slipperyness.

"It is impossible to rectify the workshop without a price, and now the people in the court and the central government are surging, and the impeachment of the Zhangren is like snow, including the people who were originally friendly with him and close to the East Palace, they have expressed their dissatisfaction, and the sage obviously intends to let the Zhangren bear the consequences."

Yuan Zai said, his face was full of smiles, not only happy for Wang Zhongsi, but also happy for Yang Dang to win over Wang Zhongsi.

He got up, poured a cup of fruit juice for Xue Bai with his own hands, and said, "As Xue Lang wishes, the father-in-law has already shown signs of becoming a lonely minister... In addition, I heard that Ge Shuhan, An Sishun and others are going back to the court. ”

Xue Bai came over to listen to him say these news, and said, "What is the relationship between General Wang and these generals?" ”

"They may not have a good relationship in private, but they all admire their father-in-law." Yuan Zai said: "Even if it's Gao Xianzhi and Feng Changqing in Anxi, who doesn't worship the military exploits of their father-in-law?" ”

"Don't wait for them to come back, the night is long and dreamy." Xue Bai said: "Add fuel to the fire."

"Don't worry, you know."

While the two were talking, Wang Yunxiu arranged for more than ten maids to come in with dishes...... This pomp shows that Yuan Zai is now rich.

"Come, try your sister-in-law's craftsmanship, this is your favorite braised mutton." Yuan Zai became more and more attentive, and really deliberately inquired about Xue Bai's taste, "There is also this soup, which has been simmered for two hours." ”

"It's hard work, sister-in-law."

"After all, it's Xue Lang who came." Wang Yunxiu's smile was not as bold as usual, and it was a little unnatural.

But Xue Bai knew at a glance that she didn't have such cooking skills, and she must have bought the dishes from the restaurant, and Yuan Zai didn't have to pretend to be close like this.

Of course, now that his official position is low, if he slowly learns from Yang Zhao, he will surely no longer let people see flaws in the matter of Fengying in the future.

A few vegetarian dishes were placed on the table, and the maid stepped forward to taste them first, and Li Linfu held the chopstick.

At this moment, Cangbi hurriedly came and said: "Ah Lang, Yu Shitai sent a message, Wang Zhonghei not only did not ask for guilt, but also made an excerpt....but pointed out that others were guilty. ”

"It's adding fuel to the fire." Li Linfu thought for a while and said to himself: "In the past, he was stinky and hard against the saint, and refused to attack Stone Fort City, but now he has no deal with the hundred officials. ”

He put down his chopsticks and ordered, "The old man will enter the palace again." ”

"Ah Lang, you haven't eaten yet, how can you eat less and do more every day.....

"It's too late, let's get ready for the quiet street."

"Whoa."

When he encountered such a diligent master of state affairs, Cangbi was helpless and busy preparing.

When Li Linfu returned, the first thing he did was to recruit An Lushan.

"It's settled."

An Lushan heard these two words, and his small eyes seemed to be lit up, so he was not excited.

Li Linfu said: "The sage has decided to dismiss Wang Zhonghe's heir from his post in Hexi and Longxi, and there will be a holy decree in Zhongshu Province tomorrow." ”

"Right phase, and then what?"

"You go back to Fanyang first." Li Linfu said.

"What?" An Lushan was surprised, "What about the two towns of Shuofang and Hedong?" ”

"Yes...... Wang Zhonghei wants to rebel! In the third year of Tianbao, when he was attacking the Turks, he secretly contacted the three tribes of Ba Ximi, Qarlu, and Hui to plan to help the prince raise troops. An Lushan screamed, "That's why he bites Hu'er with different intentions......."

"The saints know all these things, so what's the use of talking about them all the time?" Li Linfu was even more busy, and said impatiently: "He also accuses you, can the saint deal with you?" ”

"Hu'er is loyal, he is evil."

An Lushan's face was full of grievances, his small eyes rolled around, and he said: "Ge Shuhan, An Sishun and others all respect Wang Zhonghei, as long as he still has one town in hand, it is equivalent to commanding four towns, how can the right minister master the river and Long?" ”

"The old man has his own measure." Li Linfu doesn't need to be reminded, "After all, he is the son of a saint, and he has a nurturing friendship, take your time, if you want to hurry, you can't reach it." ”

An Lushan had no choice but to prop up a chair and get up to say goodbye.

He didn't expect that the result this time was that Wang Zhongji had the possibility of keeping the two towns, and he had to hold on for so long.

This time I went to Chang'an, and the harvest was much less than expected, and in retrospect, every time I was frustrated, there was the shadow of that person.

"Uncle doesn't count."

Back in the mansion, from the beginning of entering the gate, An Lushan's face changed little by little, from the beginning of harmless, silly and ridiculous, gradually turned into ferocious and vicious, and when he walked into the lobby, his whole face was hideous.

Li Zhu'er hurried to catch up, wanting to push up An Lushan's belly as usual, so that the maids could untie their belts.

Before An Lushan came back, he was teased by them and praised him for getting more and more handsome. Although it was subdued at this time, there was still a residual smile in the corner of their eyes.

And the lights in the hall are very bright, and everything can be seen clearly.

Li Zhu'er squatted down and pressed his head against An Lushan's stomach. Suddenly, he was pushed behind him and fell forward.

"The villain knows .......... wrong"

Li Zhu'er hurriedly admitted his mistake and wanted to kneel, but An Lushan had already stepped on his face, and the pain was severe.

"Don't move!"

An Lushan scolded a few words in Sogdian, very rude, slowly squatted down, grabbed Li Zhu'er's belt, and tore it open.

Li Zhu'er was frightened, he really didn't dare to move anymore, and trembling Ren An Lushan's fat hand pinched his lower body........

Then, with a "bang", An Lushan pulled out the dagger on his waist and cut it with a knife, still cursing fiercely in his mouth. ”

"Don't!

In the scream, Li Zhu'er was in shock, and because she couldn't bear such pain, she fainted.

An Lushan vented his anger at this time, looked up, took out the incense ashes in the incense burner, and sprinkled them on Li Zhu'er's wound to stop the bleeding.

"It's okay, bear with me."

An Lushan whispered, the cruelty on his face dissipated, and muttered to himself: "Bear with it, the gentleman will take revenge, it will not be too ......late for ten years."

The next day, before the news of Wang Zhonghe's dismissal from the post of the two towns spread, An Lushan had already left with a tribute to Li Longji.

After leaving the palace, the first thing he did was to say goodbye to the Yang family brothers and sisters and Xue Bai, and he was reluctant.

"Oh? Hu'er is going back to Fanyang? ”

"If it weren't for those Xi people and Turkic people who always came to attack, Hu Er really wanted to stay in Chang'an for a long time. I really can't bear my little uncle, if only I could be with my little uncle every day. ”

Xue Bai said: "It's okay, as long as you take good care of your body, you can always see each other again." ’

"Great, little uncle has to wait for Hu'er."

An Lushan clapped his hands and laughed, and he was cute.

He was not in a hurry, because no matter how many small tricks Xue Bai used to change the holy will, he couldn't stop the saint from getting older and older, and the saint's suspicion of Wang Zhongsi would only get heavier and heavier, and it would be impossible for Wang Zhongsi to keep in the way of Hedong.

Then, sooner or later, one day, it will be as easy for him to pinch Xue Bai as it is to pinch Li Zhu'er.

Xue Bai seemed to be amused by An Lushan, and his demeanor became more and more calm.

He could hear that An Lushan's words contained a deep hatred.

But he is not in a hurry, the change of the world has always started little by little, what he needs most is patience, and he is still very young, this is the biggest capital....
