Chapter 24: A Long Night in the World (I)
From the Imperial Pavilion to the Xiuxian Temple, the two have not turned a corner, this street is the widest Tianmu Street in Luyang City, there are many merchants in front of the building connected by the eaves of the corridor, I don't know when the weather suddenly turned cloudy, and the sky finally fell rain at the beginning of the Shen period.
The child running on the street was picked up by a father to the side to hide from the rain, and squatted down to wipe his wet clothes, the child was shivering from the cold, and the lady not far away hurriedly closed the stall, while the people running on the street splashed a lot of rain.
There are a few Yueji plants planted outside the Imperial Zhenxuan, and the body swaying in the wind and rain is like the little two who are leaning against the door with a dejected face at the door of the Yunshu Inn.
He recognized Gu Yi who was holding an umbrella, and waved his hand at the opposite side, and the rag in his hand looked extremely funny.
"Master, shall we go in like this?"
Gu Yi didn't know why Ma Yuan didn't hold an umbrella, and he was a little distracted when he watched the rain drop on his head, which seemed to be quite interesting.
"Well, I'm idle all day, so it's good to find something to do. ”
The sound of rain covered the footsteps, and the little Yue'er girl who lowered her head to keep the account did not notice that a guest had arrived. She held her chin with one hand, and the whole person seemed to have no energy when lying on the table, and her fleshy little mouth looked a little cute.
But when she sets up a shelf in front of you, she will feel that this is a stable big girl.
Ma Yuan twisted and pinched like a big girl, and was kicked in by Gu Yi.
"Sister Xiao Yue'er, why doesn't it seem that the mood is right, how is Ye Xiaoniang's condition today?"
"Ah, it's Lord Ma. Xiao Yue'er hurriedly stood up straight, "Thank you Master Ma for your concern, the little lady has improved." It's just that yesterday I watched the adults leave with indignation, and I felt a lot of guilt in my heart. ”
But I don't know if she is really kind-hearted, or if she has learned skills from dealing with people for many years.
But Ma Ye was moved all of a sudden, and said again and again that he was fine, and it was difficult for the most cunning man to deceive him, but the best-looking woman must deceive him.
Xiao Yue'er looked at Gu Yi again, "My lord's master, I haven't asked for advice yet, I don't know what is going on today?"
"Under the surname Gu Mingyi, today I came to wait for the summons of Little Lady Ye. ”
Xiao Yue'er had a little more helplessness in her eyes, and when she glanced at a few tables of guests who heard this, she couldn't help but feel a headache, "My lord, Mr. Gu." Just as yesterday was Yue'er's fault, Yue'er didn't want to be wrong again today. ”
It seemed that Ma Yuan was a little easier to speak, so she bowed to him, "Please also ask the adults to forgive Yue'er's difficulties." ”
"A sprinkle of the world's long night. ”
Gu Yi suddenly spoke.
Xiao Yue'er didn't understand, "What did Mr. Gu say?"
So he said again, "The Tibetan scroll is opened, and the night is bright in the world." ”
When she read it together, she understood, and there was a slight hesitation in her eyes......
"Please wait, Yue'er will go and report. ”
Gu Yi and Ma Yuan stood at the door of the inner courtyard, and many diners in the restaurant looked at them with surprise, some watched the play while drinking wine, and some left the table to wait next to them to see the excitement.
"Do you have any acquaintances?" Gu Yi asked Ma Yuan.
"Yes. Ma Ye was still a little weak-hearted, "Several familiar faces are looking at me, Master, are you sure?"
Gu Yi shook his head, "Actually, I'm not sure." ”
Ma Yuan:???
The bald man's heart suddenly panicked, and he smiled at the surroundings, and a few fingers were red.
"Ma Yuan, your new master, is so young?"
"Brother Mingguang laughed, this is indeed my master. ”
Gu Yi looked back, it was a richly dressed son, but his face was not vicious, probably because he thought Ma Yuan was very funny, he waited for a while in this case, but the time passed slowly and there was no movement.
The son who called Mingguang lost his patience, "Forget it, let's go back and eat." Ma Yuan, do you want to come along? I can't get in anyway. ”
"No, thank you Brother Mingguang. ”
Ma Yuan approached Gu Yi and whispered, "This person's name is Chen Mingguang, and he is my junior. ”
"The juniors call you by name, it seems that you are indeed very disrespected. ”
The bald man learned to be like a bear, "It's just a name, and they won't beat me or scold me." ”
"What kind of! Gu Yi waited for about a quarter of an hour, and he lost his temper, stomped his feet and shouted: "There is no one else! No one comes out again, I will tear down this broken plaque and take it away!"
This call immediately caused dissatisfaction among many diners.
"Shaft, dare to be presumptuous?"
"Ma Yuan, are you bringing someone to stir up trouble today? You're a little bolder, this is Yu Zhenxuan!"
......
After a while, there was a burst of aroma, and Xiao Yue'er hurriedly arrived: "Sir, don't worry, the little lady is invited." ”
Ma Yuan was immediately ecstatic, "Master! Master!"
Gu Yi didn't have any expression, this guy didn't know anything about the way of the traverser, look at how the other guests reacted, at this time, don't you calm down and it doesn't smell?
Chen Mingguang was quite surprised, what was he reading just now?
The Tibetan scroll is opened, and the night is bright in the world.
So the next sentence is like this.
So he turned back and shouted at the back of the person who entered the inner courtyard, "Ma Yuan, what is your master's name?"
"He doesn't deserve to know. Say!"
Xiao Yue'er's eyes moved, "Mr. Gu, Gongzi Chen is the person who realizes the talisman in three steps in front of the main house on the seventeenth floor. ”
Ma Yuan: "Brother Mingguang, forgive me, we're not making trouble!"
Gu Yi was convinced, I asked you to say that you don't deserve to know, but you said that you weren't making trouble?!
"Master, we are in Luyang, it is good to keep a low profile. ”
"It's too late to be low-key. ”
The Imperial Pavilion is like an exploding pot, sprinkled with the world's long night, this extremely ordinary poem seems to have the speed of transmission of famous sentences through the ages, people are tasting it, but no matter how carefully they taste, they can't think of the special nature of this sentence.
When talking about Ma Yuan, those people around Chen Mingguang also jokingly said that this guy is afraid that he is not going to have good luck.
The people who came out of the Imperial Pavilion also scattered to various places.
Outside the Third Princess's Mansion, a scholar in Tsing Yi wearing cloth shoes waited for the invitation gesture of the butler of the Princess's Mansion, and led him through the garden rockery to a small pavilion on the surface of a lake.
"The third princess of Qiyu, a pair of masters and apprentices came to Yuzhenxuan today, and the poems of the Tibetan scroll Manting were continued. ”
The three princesses are dressed in men's strong clothes, their hair is tied together and inserted at will with a hosta, their faces are long and their lips are thin, and their single eyelids make her lose some beauty, but she is better than her temperament, her wrist is a golden hair pen hanging in the air, a jade belt is tied at her waist, and she is wearing a python robe.
Hearing what the scholar said, she raised a nice doubtful words, "Oh, that poem is next? Then the little lady should be very happy!"
"If you can find your relatives, it is naturally worth being happy, and there is already a quarrel in the Imperial Treasure Pavilion. ”
"Interesting, what's next?"
"No. The next sentence is: A sprinkle of the world's long night. ”
The third princess tasted it herself, "The Tibetan scroll is open, and the night is bright in the world." There's nothing special about it, but does anyone know the implications?"
No, my subordinates asked a few classmates and friends, but they didn't know what they meant. ”
"Paper comes. ”
The maidservant girl on the side immediately placed the rice paper on the desk, and the slender fingers of the third princess waved the pen. It is this poem that was written.
"I'm sorry for you, and I'll send this letter to my sixth sister. ”
"Don't dare, obey the order of the third princess. The subordinates retired. ”
"Wait a minute. The third princess stared and pondered, "Who is the person who picked up the poem?"
The man turned and bowed his head, "The identity is unknown." He only said that his name was Gu Yi. ”
'Gu Yi...... Gu Yi?'
