When he didn't see Chen Yanyu, Xu Jiangnan felt that what he wanted to say to her was stacked layer by layer, and he was afraid that it would be higher than the Qinglian Peak that entered the clouds. When I saw it, I was clumsy. I don't know what to say, and I don't know where to start. Just leaned quietly on the peach tree outside the Shili Pavilion, and listened to the sound of Qingyue Guqin coming from the Shili Pavilion not far away.

Xu Jiangnan followed Mr. to tell stories in the north and south of the river for 9,000 miles, and heard a lot of interesting anecdotes, and also heard of the famous world commentary, the first volume commented on the ministers and generals, and the next volume commented on the chivalrous men and lakes. The tea customers of Western Xia are not particularly enthusiastic about the upper volume, some of them are proud, and some of them are because the one who commented on the world was Huang Menlang, who was said to have the talent of the four states in the Northern Qi Dynasty. I talk about the next volume, and I can say that the first half of the day is more than enough, it seems that it is because I am in the same rivers and lakes as the hero, which is a bit honorable.

It's just that Xu Jiangnan doesn't pay much attention to these, the world is too far away for him, almost an unreachable distance, not to mention the above Wenchen generals, Wen is a talent through the heavens and latitudes, and Wu is a great achievement on the battlefield. Looking down at himself, he looked pitiful and unsuccessful, and the only book he had read many times was the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" that had been stored for a long time before he got it. Needless to say, Wu is not to mention. Since that time when he was ridiculed by Xiao Yanyu, it seems that his time to practice martial arts can only be seen when Xiao Yanyu is unhappy. Don't talk about it, I want to play a flirtatious girl's sword flower, but the sword comes out, but the flower has no shadow.

In the past four years, he has also seen the life and death of countless families. I heard Mr. mention the tragic picture of the fall of Yanbei ten years ago, and the whole city was exhausted. After this comparison, it is not very important not to say what he can't remember, and whether he can be judged by the world is even more absurd dreams.

In troubled times, life is like a mustard, it's good to be alive!

Xu Jiangnan relaxed physically and mentally, and suddenly heard the sound of the piano breaking, and was a little worried that the strings were broken, for fear of hurting Yanyu's fingers, so he jumped down from the tree and walked quickly towards the Shili Pavilion not far away.

Approaching the pavilion, I found that there was a white-faced scholar with a crown of jade outside the pavilion. It turned out that there was a group of scholars and ladies who went out to enjoy the scenery in spring, which is not uncommon in today's Yanbei.

It is estimated that this group of scholars and young ladies were enjoying spring nearby, and heard the guqin music that was as smooth as heaven. Looking for the sound, I saw Chen Yanyu, who was masked with a silk scarf, alone in the Shili Pavilion. Chen Yanyu's original intention was to avoid causing trouble, but how do you know that too many people in the world like the mystery of half-covering their faces? This wealthy scholar who looks like a talented person wearing gold and jade is obviously also attracted and volunteered to talk to him.

The scholar is an obvious child of a family, the cyan square scarf is tied in the hair, tied up with a purple jade hairpin, and the breeze blows up the square scarf, which is a chic and romantic mess. He also knew the purpose of the elders in the clan who arranged for him to come to Yanbei. This is also a dark deal between the family and the royal family, choose some of the family's excellent descendants to be gilded on the border, such gilding, is not to learn from the battlefield man to pin his head to the waist of his trousers to desperately gain fame, but like a beautiful maid with red sleeves and fragrance like a distant view, and then stage a period of wind and snow with the woman of the Qinglou. After returning for a few and a half years, the elders of the family wrote a few gorgeous articles, and after Zhang Guan Li Dai, he was recommended as an official. This can be regarded as a kind of shortcut to the end of the south.

As for those Zhangtai beauties, the beauties of Qingyin Xiaozhu, they are husbands and godsons after that, or they are still alone, mixed in the fireworks field. God knows. Although the possibility of the former is very small, since there is a chance to be a good housewife, who would be willing to be a girl in the fence? Losing the bet is just a body that will be lost sooner or later.

This good-looking family is obviously very confident in himself, although his family is not one of those behemoths that has been inherited for hundreds of years, but he also has an ancestor who has been an official to the second grade. This instruction is the old ancestor's ear to mention the face, so that he can make a name for himself in Yanbei, and then the protΓ©gΓ© under the original name will match him, without asking for the gate valve to go to the next level, at least it is more than enough for the official to become his own family.

Shijiazi is not a master with an empty stomach, and he also has some dabbling in piano music, so he pinched the rhythm of the song, broke a spring flower and stepped forward to interrupt recklessly, and then politely apologized in a warm voice.

Xu Jiangnan really couldn't see the handsome scholar wearing a moon-white scholar robe but holding a wild flower, and he didn't care about wiping the peach petals that were stained on his ears at some point, so he walked up and jumped sideways against the railing. Pulling Chen Yanyu to push the handsome scholar to stagger, he said with a hippie smile that he was embarrassed and borrowed it. He dragged people out of the pavilion, and he didn't even bother to take the guqin he brought over.

Today's spring appreciation was originally organized by the family, the intention was to call a little bit of the same is the family to come over the gilded young master, in the call on a little can sing and dance proficient in the rhythm of the Qinglou women, all the way to enjoy the flowers to Liuyundu, after arriving at the ferry, there will be a flower boat to pick up, in the cold water to come up a night of drunken gold fans, the next day back to the city. Halfway through, I heard the mellow sound of the piano like spring rain, and I mistakenly thought it was everyone, and wanted to invite me to increase my prestige among everyone. Halfway to find that it is a slender beauty, although the face is covered by a light veil, looking at the fingers like onion roots, skin white as jade, the same as the slightest knowledge, this family has also done to call a dozen or so beauties, blindfolded a smell of beauty Yaxing, guess how the woman in the pavilion said is also a top grade, so it is a lot of sincerity.

The handsome scholar is very sure of his humility, and after being rejected by Qingyue's voice, he thought that what the beautiful woman said was just a polite remark, but he didn't expect that a young man dressed up in the market with peach blossoms in his ears would run away with people unreasonable.

The scholar who suffered such an unreasonable act was obviously very well cultivated, and he did not do anything ungraceful. On the contrary, when he saw the guqin that was left out in the pavilion, the corners of his mouth were hooked, and he still went out with that seemingly harmless smile, and walked among everyone and said regretfully: "It's a pity, the beauty has an appointment." ”

I don't know if it's a pity for him that Chen Yanyu, who is beautiful and fragrant, met the vulgar Xu Jiangnan, or if it's really a pity that the beauty has an appointment.

Before the words fell, among the people, a woman wearing a green smoke shirt and a colored belt around her waist tied her slender waist, and the woman with spring water pointed to the guqin in the scholar's hand, and said with a smile in a glamorous tone: "It's a pity that it's true, it's true that the beauty has an appointment, but the beauty just wants to make an appointment with our eldest son Lu." ”

When the scholar who was called Lu Gongzi by the Cuiyan woman heard this, he couldn't help but glance at the woman who paved the "steps", and said with a smile: "Where is it! It's been delayed here for so long, let's hurry up and go to Liuyundu, don't let down this great spring."

Although the person who stepped on the spring is not an old fox, but no one is a young man who has just entered the rivers and lakes and does not know how to understand the world, everyone saw the unreasonableness of Xu Jiangnan before, and now Lu Gongzi does not mention it, so he will get off the donkey, and no one will be stupid enough to dismantle the platform, while saying the polite words of pushing the boat down the river, while walking towards Liuyundu.

And Xu Jiangnan pulled Chen Yanyu and didn't run far, he turned a corner and stopped when he reached the edge of the cool water. He really wanted to say something to Chen Yanyu when he came out this time, but it was difficult to say it when the words came to his mouth, so he couldn't tell her, I had a dream yesterday, and I dreamed that you stabbed me in the chest with a knife expressionlessly.

She has been a smart character since she was a child, and she has followed Shen Shuo to observe words and emotions for so many years, and there are also people who are not deep, and she has long seen that Xu Jiangnan has something on her mind, but he doesn't speak, and she doesn't ask, it's as simple as that.

Suddenly, Chen Yanyu seemed to think of something again, turned around and took down the peach petals in Xu Jiangnan's ear, and said softly: "I forgot to take the piano when I fell in the pavilion." ”

Xu Jiangnan looked at Chen Yanyu's expression, and his irritable mood was suddenly swept away. I remember going to the Taoist temple to learn swordsmanship, and even the drunken old Taoist priest with a stinky nose woke up when he saw Chen Yanyu and was surprised that she was a life with peach blossoms, and the life of the mother in the world. Regardless of whether this proverb is true or not, after Yanyu heard it, he no longer touched half of the rouge gouache, and showed it with a scarf. This intention, even if it is stabbed, should be willing.

Xu Jiangnan, who had figured it out, said with a smile: "Don't panic, this guqin will be back in two days at the latest." ”

Chen Yanyu, who seemed to have thought of something, rose from behind his delicate jade-like ears, bit his shallow lips comparable to pink rouge, and stopped talking.

When did Xu Jiangnan see such a style as Xiao Yanyu, he was stunned for half a minute, and muttered: "If one day, I am really stabbed by you, I am willing." ”

β€”β€”β€”

Spring Tobacco Fang.

The glamorous woman who had taught Chen Yanyu for several years was sitting in the wing room at this time, holding a letter from Jinling, Kyoto, Western Xia, and her originally smiling face became colder and colder, and in the end, she sneered: "That group of Qingliu old men who stand and talk without backache really dare to be cheeky and take the credit of Haiyan Heqing on their bodies, and they are not afraid of flashing their old waists." ”

Putting down the letter, I just picked up the celadon teacup. The door was lightly slammed, and the voice of the subordinate asking was heard randomly, and it was clearly the old mother of Chunyanfang who relieved Xu Jiangnan this morning: "Madam, Mr. is here." I am waiting in the front hall. ”

Xu Jiangnan's past about Mr. Li is almost blank, just like when Mr. Li said that she would call Chen Yanyu in the future, Yanyu's earlier identity and name were all overturned. It has become a little smoke and rain that was born in Yanbei and grew up in Yanbei, and it is as if it had never happened to be bound and held hostage. Xu Jiangnan has been shouting Mr. Li for more than ten years, and it seems that he only does what Mr. Li should do, storytelling, practicing calligraphy, and hand talking, except for the short-lived killing.

But this woman surnamed Shen, who was called Mrs. by the old mother of Chunyanfang, knows Mr. Li very well. And herself, her real name Shen Shuo doesn't seem to be known by many people, but when it comes to Shen Lou'er, who is backward and fallen in the middle of the family road and takes the place of her original name, she is famous for a while.

In Jiangnan Province more than ten years ago, the beauties of various Qinglou pavilions tried their best to compete for the title of chief Oiran.

It wasn't until later that Shen Lou'er, who was only twenty-eight years old, became famous, and danced with the moonlight on the Guangling city wall that was still part of the Yue Kingdom at that time. That night, all the Jinghua tired customers, scholars and scholars, all of them were amazed, and for a time the limelight was widely spread in Jiangnan Province. Legend has it that in the end, even the palace was shocked, shocked by the heavens, and there were rumors that the last emperor of the Yue Kingdom was willing to sprinkle ten thousand taels of gold, just to see the true face of the fairy.

Not to mention the benefactors of the Qinglou, who are eager to flock to the Qinglou, after tea and dinner, they all think that they are fortunate to witness that night, and those who have heard but have never seen the white-clothed Qingxiang can't help but sigh, not seeing such a captivating posture is a big regret in life.

The battle over the Oiran has settled.

It's just that later, after the fall of the Yue Kingdom, the Oiran Shen Lou'er disappeared with the moment the city gate collapsed, and after disappearing, the first time the soldiers of the dead country were grief-stricken was not the Yang Dayue from this country not to the country, but to splash ink and write the famous sentence of "The flowers fall and the people die without knowing", which is also funny.

In fact, when Shen Shuo met Mr. Li, his family was well-off, and when he and his sisters were enjoying the scenery on the Beihuai River in Jinling, he rescued Mr. Li who was dying, and the clothes on his chest were red with blood.

Even the doctor who took the pulse of Mr. at that time was amazed, and even said that the blessing is great, and this knife is half a point down, even if the reincarnation of the Dajin Arhat Lu Dao is a dead end.

Mr. Li, who was in the front hall, waited for a long time, but didn't see Shen Shuo come out, nor did he see impatience, so he took a sip of tea. Standing up and looking around, there were a large number of priceless handwritings hanging around me. The old mother respectfully followed, paused, and asked in a low voice, "Sir, why don't I go and see Madame again?"

Hearing this, the gentleman smiled and waved his hand, "It's okay, it's okay, wait a minute." ”

I admired the calligraphy and paintings of these priceless predecessors, and I was really amazed by Shen Shuo's means of making money.

Shen Lou'er, who didn't know when he came in, shook his hand, and the knowledgeable old bustard quietly closed the door and retreated.

Shen Shuo looked at this man who had a mixed reputation in the world's evaluation, his eyes gradually softened, and he gloated: "Now the one in the palace probably heard the rumors." ”

Mr. Li replied lightly: "If you know, you will know, just with that Nizi's national appearance, it is also appropriate to hide the dragon robe in the capital." ”

Shen Shuo suddenly couldn't sit still, and said in a lost voice: "What about your layout over the years?"

Mr. Li used his fingers to feel the delicate feeling of the paper painting, and responded with a smile: "If you don't use it, you can't use it, if you have a child, you will naturally have a child to die. ”

Shen Shuo also heard the helplessness in Mr. Li's words, and the spring blossomed in an instant, squinting and smiling, and he was in a good mood. She rarely saw the depressed look of the man in front of her.

In addition to the first time I met like a water ghost with a cape floating on the water, there was also the White Crane Tower playing chess with Xu Xuan, who was known as the national player of Western Xia. Xu Guoshou, who was holding the white son first, unexpectedly threw the ball to close, and said something that made her feel unbelievable: "This chess is here, Mr. is humble, and he narrowly defeats the four eyes in the game, and I hope that Mr. Yinuo will let go of the 300,000 Li people in Jinling." "What a scoundrel.

She can see that it is possible to make a move, or after the next move, the only slight advantage left in front of Bai Zi no longer exists, and the general throwing is nothing more than admitting defeat, it is difficult to have such a scoundrel in the market, or from the mouth of the military advisor of the Western Xia Southern Expedition.

But it's true, it's true that there are four more eyes on the chessboard now, Xu Xuan can't play, the white son will always have more than four eyes, and Mr. Li, who holds the sunspot, did lose four eyes. When I heard such a crying and laughing words, I also laughed, even said it funny, and generously admitted defeat.

It's just that the ten peaks and twelve views of Qingcheng Mountain have become nine peaks and twelve views today, and one peak was split by Mr. Li for the Yue concubine Lianfeng who died in the country, and crossed the Beihuai River. I want to let 300,000 people who originally belonged to the Yue Kingdom be buried together. And it was such a sword that amazed the world, and was applauded by the Northern Qi scholars who watched the play, saying that this is a model of infatuated characters of our generation. In the southern country, Shizi Qingliu was still afraid to complain carefully at first, and when he saw that no one stopped him and no evil ghosts came to the door, he began to criticize and write in unison.

Afterwards, Mr. Li Yinuo, and then a sword, half of the peaks that traversed Beihuai turned into powder. On the other half of the mountain, Jin Ge carved a sentence like an iron horse, Xu Housheng, put the ending you owe here.

That year, there were many displaced people in Jinling, but the deceased emperor who was named King of Anyue was dead and did not see his body.

Shen Shuo looked at Mr. Li's silent expression and knew that he remembered the noble concubine who jumped down from the city wall, the miserable woman who said that she hated him for not coming earlier, and stabbed him in the chest with a dagger that was ready to commit suicide, and the beautiful woman in front of him who made the heartless act of intercepting the Huai and flooding Jinling in the north without caring about the consequences of the destruction of 300,000 lives, and was willing to suffer the verbal criticism of the people of the world.

She had the heart to change the topic, but she didn't know what to say for a while, she was like this when she first met twenty years ago, and when she first met him in her prime, just like the plot of the play, it was out of control. It's just that she is arrogant, and she doesn't want him to have another woman in his heart, so she wants to wait for him to put it down, who knows that she has waited for twenty years. She also wanted to fight, so she danced on the city wall of Guangling, just to let him see that no matter the style or talent, she was not inferior to the inner palace lady.

"Xianqiu, promise me that if this game of chess is withdrawn, you must give Yanyu and Jiangnan a way out. Shen Shuo looked at this man he had liked for twenty years, and couldn't help but rub his face with his white and jade onions-like fingers, and then said softly: "I don't want to watch them repeat the same mistakes. ”

Mr. Li, that is, Li Xianqiu in Shen Shuo's mouth, according to legend, Li Xianqiu, who has three thousand longitudes and latitudes in his eyes, responded softly: "I still owe Xu Xuan a jar of wine." There's no reason not to pay it back. ”

Shen Shuo frowned inadvertently when he heard this, but he was relieved, just like when the Yue Kingdom destroyed the country, and saw this white shirt in chaos.

However, Shen Shu fell in love with this little girl who did not fight or grab but had the attitude of captivating the country as soon as he saw Chen Yanyu, plus he may not have a son and a half daughter in this life, and he has taken care of Xiao Yanyu as his own daughter in recent years.

However, she knows a lot about the grievance story in the past, and she also knows that there is an inextricable knot between Xiao Yanyu and Xiao Jiangnan's identity.

I had to sigh secretly, hoping that the original step away would not be a prophecy because of my crow's mouth, and forget about the rivers and lakes.

β€”β€”β€”

At night, the painting boat on the upper floor of the cool water gradually increased, although the lights on both sides of the strait, the noise continued, but after all, there is still a distance from the painting boat, the boat is much cleaner, only the cups are staggered, mixed with the music played by the piano girl.

And in one of the painting boats, in the eyes of everyone who understood, Lu Gongzi, who came out to breathe under the pretext of chest tightness, stood at the bow of the boat, and remembered the scene of the previous Shili Pavilion, looking at the white posture of the beautiful woman. Lu Gongzi, who has been a white-clothed gentleman in Qinglou Zhangtai for several years, thinks that he is a high-grade beauty, a merry man, a merry son, who would think that he has a lot of debts? And that poor and vulgar boy seems to have been selectively forgotten.

Lu Gongzi waved his hand and beckoned the old slave to come over, and whispered to the old slave sideways: "Lao Liu, go back to the city tomorrow, inquire whose girl this qin is, send it back, and then send the string of sandalwood hand beads brought from Jinling over as my reparation." ”

Hearing this, the old slave's originally bowed body sank, and replied with a smile: "Don't worry, the old slave knows." ”

Lu Gongzi hummed and waved his hand, and the old slave consciously retreated.

It was at this moment that the voices of several sons in the painting boat came vaguely: "Lu, Lu Gongzi, you haven't vomited yet, are you done spitting? ”

Lu Gongzi felt a little spring breeze on his face, and his temples and green silk swayed with the wind, so he looked like an excellent appearance of the best son of the turbid world.

At this moment, the waves of the surrounding painting boats brought the ups and downs of the own painting boats. Lu Gongzi took the opportunity to staggered towards the boat, pretending to be half-awake and half-drunk, and responded with a big tongue: "Brother Liu, don't worry, today, today you will not be drunk and will not return, and you will not return if you are drunk." ”
