Chapter Twenty-Four: Appreciating the Wind and the Moon and Appreciating the Beauty (I)
Appreciate the wind, the moon, and the beauty (I)
The meal was eaten from noon to evening, during which Chunwang also asked the girl in the building to take Xiaoyuan out to change a few sets of clothes, and also bought a lot of rouge gouache.
When the clothes were in Hai'an City, they were replaced once, but they were just rouge gouache and other things, Xu Changan didn't understand, and Aunt Long had a grudge against Xu Changan before, although she bought some, but because Xiaoyuan was poisoned, those things were no longer used.
The girls in the building are all full of charm, spitting Finland, their arms are like jade lotus, and their skin is like congealed fat. They may not have any greater ability, and it is almost difficult to support themselves by their own hands when they get out of this building, unless they have good luck and are taken by a rich man. But as long as they are in this kind of building, they can save enough money for a lifetime in their youth.
They can't teach Xiaoyuan other skills, but Chunwang took a group of girls to look at Xiaoyuan, of course they will teach them a little bit of what they are good at. This one asks the little marquis about his habits and tells him how to do what he likes with men, and the one who observes Xu Chang'an's clothes determines what the little marquis likes. Talking and gossiping, they helped Xiaoyuan dress up, and when several men were drunk, more than a dozen girls helped Xiaoyuan dress up.
When Xiao Yuan entered the house beautifully, he only saw a few men who were drunk and asleep on the table, and a few men who were prominent in Chang'an City were lying on the table like drunk mud at this time.
It has come all the way from the rainy season, and now it is autumn.
Autumn is high and crisp, the sky is dotted with stars, the bright moon hangs in the sky like a mirror, the streets are bustling, there are many shouts, drunkenness, and even the long-standing scholars are full of poems and poems spit out of their mouths. There are also a lot of scribes on the streets, they are sent by the major bookstores, specially wandering in Pingkangfang, if someone is drunk, the poetry is prosperous, they will immediately copy it, this is part of the content of their bookstore.
If you encounter a good poem, everyone applauds, the copyist is happy, and even several copyists from different bureaus will tear each other apart. The whole city was in an uproar, some were ecstatic and some were crazy.
"How lively this city is!"
There are many coincidences in the world, but it is rare for two people to say the same sentence at the same time in the same city, and almost have the same mood.
Xu Changan wandered the rivers and lakes, several masters were old drunkards, and the amount of alcohol was larger than that of Chai Xintong and others, and after letting go of a few friends, he walked out alone.
Away from the crowds, look at the noisy market from afar.
"But I don't like the excitement of not having you!"
Xu Changan turned his head, took a deep look at this ordinary alley again, and finally walked in.
The alley has long been asleep, and the moon is also shining on the bluestone pavement very well, bright, the creeper on the wall covers the entire wall, and there seems to be a rocking chair next to the door that looks old, and a girl in white is lying in the moonlight under the moonlight, and the moonlight just hits the face.
Xu Changan's slightly red face showed a smile, the evening breeze blew, and the strength of the wine just now came up in an instant, slightly drunk.
Taking a step forward, it seemed that the footsteps had alarmed the moonlight, the rocking chair was gone, and the girl in white that I had seen in a trance just now was also gone.
Everything was like a broken dream, blown away by the wind under the moonlight.
In its place, there are cold rooms, sleeping, warm-hearted neighbors in the room that cannot be seen.
A man appeared in front of him, dressed in golden armor and holding a long sword.
Xu Changan squinted at him, and the little wine he had left was mostly sober.
Sword Qi!
There is also a sword intent!
Although he was only holding a long sword that was unsheathed, his whole person was like a sharp sword that was unsheathed.
Xu Changan's eyes narrowed, and his hand reached behind his back.
The man in the golden armor did not draw his sword, but thrust the long sword and the scabbard into my stone pavement, and the bluestone pavement was like a dirt road after the rain, and it was easily inserted into it.
He has always been a man of few words, Xu Changan
Also, the other party showed this kind of attitude, and Xu Changan would not be stupid enough to ask.
However, seeing the other party behaving like this, Xu Changan forcibly pulled back the long sword stretched out behind his back.
Red lotuses appeared under his feet, and red lotuses also appeared in his eyes.
A sword aura appeared, like a wisp of wind blowing across the street, there was no grand occasion of bluestone slabs rolling, and not even a slightly louder sound came out.
But Xu Changan didn't dare to underestimate this sword aura.
With both hands pinching a sword technique, the red sword qi collided with the sword qi of the golden-armored man, and the two actually canceled each other out, and finally dissipated.
Xu Changan took half a step back, and the man in the golden armor did not move.
Xu Changan was about to make another move, but the man in the golden armor immediately clenched his fists and said: "Little Marquis, wait a minute, the eldest prince knows that the little Marquis will come here, and his subordinates will wait here." ”
Xu Changan looked at the guard in golden armor in front of him, lowered his hand, stared at him and said, "How would he know about this place?"
The guard was silent for a moment, thought for a moment, and took out a mutilated picture from his bosom.
The drawings were crumpled very crumpled, but Xu Changan was still attracted by the drawing.
The protagonist on the picture only shows two backs, one is straight in a green shirt, and on the side of the green shirt, there is a white skirt, and the white skirt also carries a gray piano bag on the back, and a bamboo stick is exposed at the feet.
The two of them walked through Chang'an after the rain, the streets were still a little damp, and the roadside noodle stalls were steaming.
Xu Changan looked at this picture and smiled.
"His Royal Highness the Great Prince said, please enter the palace for a while. ”
As he spoke, he rolled up the picture and handed it to Xu Changan with both hands.
Xu Changan was silent, nodded, and took the picture. Although it was only a picture, Xu Changan saw a lot of things.
He knew that she belonged to him at the beginning, he also knew how determined she was when she handed over the Nine Dragon Talisman to him, and he also knew that her heartache in Jingmen Prefecture was no less than half a point less than that of herself.
"Good. ”
......
The man in golden armor didn't wait for Xu Chang'an, and after getting Xu Chang'an's reply, he went straight back to the East Palace.
Today's Xuanyuan Chi disbanded the original Fengqi Pavilion, burned the original attic, and since then has concentrated on being a teacher in the East Palace and teaching his younger brother.
"Coming back?"
Although his spear is not very stable, his cultivation is still there, and he has been practicing more and more these days, and he has the same demeanor as he did when he used the spear. "Hmm. The golden-armored guard nodded.
"Is the picture for him?" Before he could answer, the eldest prince continued, "When I first burned the Qi Feng Pavilion, I fortunately caught a glimpse of this picture in the garbage heap. Otherwise, it would be difficult to invite this little marquis now!"
"No one expected that at the beginning, I thought that the biggest opponent of the Xuanyuan family was his Xu family, but I didn't expect that in the end, it was the Confucius Temple that I hadn't paid much attention to. ”
The guards didn't say a word, and the court said a lot about these things, and it was wrong to say more, not to say that at least it wouldn't be too ugly.
The eldest prince didn't care at all, and then said: "You said how wonderful this world is, this Xu Changan is like a destined nemesis." The background is not worse than me, from the level of rivers and lakes, better than me, since I was a child, I have not learned as much as me, but I have lost to him several times. ”
"I need the essence blood of the divine beast, and he needs it too; I fell in love with a girl, and he fell in love with him; I lost my kindness and morality in the palace, but he showed benevolence and righteousness outside Chang'an City; I led the wolf into the house, but the opponent who finally had the heart of the tiger and wolf left because of him. ”
The guards didn't dare to say more, and buried their heads low. Suddenly, there was a muffled snort coming out of his mouth.
The eldest prince turned his head sharply and looked at the guard who was guarding him.
"Did you him?"
The guards did not return.
"You're still hurt?"
The guard in golden armor wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and bowed to the eldest prince.
"Your Highness, I just wanted to try his combat power, and now he is at the peak of the Huixi Realm. I fought with him with a sword, but I didn't expect ......"
The eldest prince looked at the sword in his hand and said lightly: "You have never made a sword." ”
But the subordinates were defeated. ”
"Left?"
The guard didn't answer, and the eldest prince sighed and said, "I know your thoughts, it's nothing more than to try him, if you use your sword, how can you be free from blood?"
"The subordinates were incompetent, he just took half a step back. ”
"That's it, go to the Internal Affairs Office to find some pills and heal his wounds well, how is he standing now?" said the eldest prince, taking out a token from his waist and throwing it over.
"I can fight with the subordinates of the junior middle realm junior master!"
Hearing this, the eldest prince fell silent.
He knew the strength of the person in front of him, the cultivation of the peak little grandmaster, and with that famous sword, even Shui Yusheng or Ning Zhiyuan were not necessarily his opponents. Besides, this was before the old madman under that temple did not teach him, and now he is estimated to be able to push all opponents sideways among the juniors.
"You say, what would happen if he was taught a lesson or two by an old madman who was suppressed by the temple?"
The guard glanced at the eldest prince in surprise, a little incredulous, but in the end he gave an honest answer.
"Better than me. ”
"Alright, you go down and tell the people below not to stop him!"
With that, the guard bowed and disappeared from the roof.
The eldest prince sat on the roof of the East Palace, and he happened to be able to see the bustle of Pingkangfang.
"How lively this city is!" he murmured, and was suddenly stunned, for he had said it half an hour earlier.
......
Xu Changan also came to the roof, carrying a long sword on his back, and no one stopped him.
Today's eldest prince has lost his original sharpness, with long hair and a shawl, wearing a white robe, the white robe is also loose, with dark green, white, and black mixed long hair, a bit like the prodigal literati of the previous dynasty.
"She, how's it going?"
The eldest prince didn't turn his head and asked softly.
Xu Changan suddenly felt that this person was also very lonely, very similar to himself who walked into the alley alone just now.
His heart softened, and he sat down beside the eldest prince.
"I don't know. ”
"Come on. The eldest prince smiled faintly and didn't talk about anything else, as if he was encouraging an old friend for many years, encouraging Xu Chang'an.
"I'm used to living a dull life, and I just want to enjoy the wind and the moon every day. ”
Xu Changan found that the eldest prince had changed and became very thorough, and his heart moved, and he picked up the second half of the sentence.
"Beauty. ”
