- Chapter 108 Beppu
When Xiao Yuesheng appeared with Xie Xiaolan in his arms on the West Lake Su Di in the breezy and cold West Lake, no one knew that the two of them were thousands of miles away in the Tianshan Mountains where the cold wind was howling.
Xie Xiaolan was dressed in snow-white, fur robes and mink hat, but she was not out of place on the embankment filled with tourists. The two of them stood hand in hand under a willow tree for a moment, and then they saw three ladies walking by with their retinues. Wearing a fur robe and a mink hat.
The bright earrings in their ears flickered and dazzled under the lanterns hanging on the trees beside the embankment.
When Xiao Yuesheng smelled the fragrance, he knew that their fur robes must have been scented with roses. The faint fragrance was intoxicating, and the unique soft words of southern women were like a spring breeze blowing by.
Now is the first year of Jingding. In the blink of an eye, the Southern Song Dynasty has been peaceful for a hundred years. The desire to restore the country has long since dissipated, from the emperor to the common people.
The Mongolian cavalry was getting more and more powerful, and all the northern lands were under its control. However, this invincible cavalry, which was galloping across the land of Europe, was blocked at the foot of Xiangyang City and could not move forward. However, at this time, the Southern Song Dynasty was like a flower that was about to wither, extremely gorgeous. .
Xiangyang has become the only gateway to half of the world. Under the fierce Mongolian attack, it has not been successful for a long time. At this time, the name of the hero Guo Jing is spread all over the world, and it is unparalleled for a while. Meeting Guo Daxia is enough to show off your pride to your relatives and friends.
Xiao Yuesheng and Xiao Yuesheng stood hand in hand in the shadow under the willow tree, quietly watching the night view of the West Lake.
The lake is covered with large and small flowers, and the lanterns on the boat are reflected on the lake, making shadows. Looking from a distance, the waves and lamps reflect each other. The quiet lake is decorated with lanterns all over, which can compete with the stars in the sky.
On the Su Causeway where the lanterns are like stars, tourists are flocking in twos and threes, in groups, some are dressed in fur clothes, some are wearing blue shirts, and even worse, holding paper fans in their hands, doing a romantic and unrestrained manner. It's a lively gathering of friends, chatting and laughing, or spring breeze and rain.
Like the two of them, there are many others standing in the shadow under the tree. Most of them are young men and women having a private tryst. They pledge each other before the flowers and under the moon. No matter the dynasties change, the vicissitudes of the world, the men and women who eat and drink, they will last forever.
Xiao Yuesheng looked at Xie Xiaolan beside him. The sparse shadows of the willow branches fell on her delicate face. In this place with noisy lights and under the willow tree, it seemed like she was isolated from the rest of the world and felt quiet and lonely. With her by his side, He suddenly felt unusually happy.
"Madam, that young man must have never seen my Lord Taishan!" Xiao Yuesheng suddenly pointed at a group of young heroes passing by. They were carrying swords and knives. They were full of energy, talking and laughing loudly, as if no one else was around. One of them was handsome. , the man with thin lips was in high spirits, talking about how great Guo Daxia was, and his admiration was beyond words.
"Oh, why?" Xie Xiaolan asked perfunctorily. She had never met Guo Jing. She had admired this hero Guo for a long time. She just stood in the shadows and looked at the dimly lit place, but her mood suddenly fell.
Xiao Yuesheng was extremely sensitive and suddenly noticed her change. He held her little hand holding the willow trunk and chuckled: "My father-in-law doesn't know how to say those clever words. It's more like what my mother-in-law said! Let's find one too." Why don¡¯t you go and have some fun on the lake?"
"Well, it's up to you." Xie Xiaolan felt the warmth and safety coming from her hands, and her heart seemed to be injected into the silk hot spring, making her feel lazy and comfortable.
The breeze blew by on the embankment, and the lanterns hanging on hundreds of trees swayed gently in the wind, which was extremely spectacular. The two strands of black hair exposed under her mink hat also fluttered in the wind, "I still remember the last time I was here with my eldest brother. An unexpected situation!"
"Haha, it's only been a few days since the last time!" Xiao Yuesheng touched his nose with his other hand, with a hint of ridicule.
Xie Xiaolan's jade face turned slightly sideways and she glanced at Xiao Yuesheng with a seductive charm. She was both happy and angry, and her every frown and smile was charming. "My eldest brother looked so proud of himself at that time, it was so annoying! I just want to forget it, but It can¡¯t be done!¡±
Xiao Yuesheng chuckled, and kept silent knowingly. Regardless of the rules of the law, he took her hand and walked to a boat under the embankment.
The names of husband and wife in Guanlan Villa are also quite strange. They are not called husbands or officials. The four daughters of Xiaoyu are still called sons, but Wanyanping and Guo Fu are called eldest brothers. Although all wives are equal, no matter how big or small, Wan Yanping and Guo Fu are called eldest brothers. However, no one doubted Yan Ping's position. As a latecomer, Xie Xiaolan wanted to follow Yan Ping and call Xiao Yuesheng her eldest brother.
As usual, they are all thanks to everyone. The name of Xiaozhuang is the name of Xiaozhuang.
This painting is parked quietly under the embankment. It is quite a difficult section to walk. It is rugged and full of rocks. It seems that it does not want people to get close. If it were anyone else, it would indeed be blocked. However, Xiao Yuesheng's feet followed the road, and he stepped on the chaos. The stone is no different from walking on flat ground.
The two floors of the boat are painted with vermilion paint, and lanterns are hung side by side on the side of the boat. The pavilion and eaves on the second floor are also decorated with lanterns.?Looks brightly lit.
There were only a dozen or so carved wooden pillars on the first floor, which looked like a verandah. There was no one around at this time. Only dozens of curtains and gauze were blowing in the breeze. The six connected pavilions on the second floor were brightly lit, and Xiao Yuesheng could hear. There were waves of feminine laughter coming from there.
"Brother, I'm afraid this one won't work!" Xie Xiaolan looked at the painting, which was a bit more elegant than Guanlan Villa, and shook her head.
"Oh, why?" Xiao Yuesheng moved his eyes away from the spring-filled painting, turned sideways and asked, then chuckled: "Could it be that this boat is a private boat?"
Xie Xiaolan shook her mink hat lightly and shook her head slightly: "But it's not true. Looking at the style of this boat, I am afraid it is used by the courtesan on the West Lake. This kind of woman is not seen by ordinary people. She is not a high-ranking official or a famous person. I think Don¡¯t even think about it!¡±
Xiao Yuesheng smiled warmly, but was a little bored: "Then we, the powerless people, are going to retreat in spite of the difficulties?"
Xie Xiaolan¡¯s starry eyes were sparkling and bright under the light reflected by the lake. She looked at her husband beside her. Although she hesitated slightly, she still nodded.
Xiao Yuesheng glared at her angrily, as if complaining that her words could not be described as gentle.
???
Xiao Yuesheng shook his head and smiled bitterly, looking at the rows of rows and rows on the lake, with melodious music and music, and the people inside the rowing boats, having fun, and bursts of laughter carried by the wind. His life of drunkenness and dreams was completely different from his own leisurely and leisurely life. It was completely different. What a way to live!
"Hey, go back! There is a house not far from here, and there is also one in Guanxiang in the city. Where do you want to stay tonight?" Xiao Yuesheng was a little uninterested, waved his hand, and headed back home.
Looking at his appearance, Xie Xiaolan's originally depressed mood dissipated. Who made him look so irritating when he took Guo Fu with him that day! She has the joy of a little woman.
"Then let's go to the city. The little girl can't bear these flashy scenes!" Xie Xiaolan laughed, and followed him to turn around and walk back. This sentence made Xiao Yuesheng happy.
"Hey, wait!" Xiao Yuesheng suddenly raised his hand and stopped.
??
"Haha, these two guys are here!" Xiao Yuesheng's indifferent attitude was immediately wiped away, and he laughed loudly. People walking on the embankment heard this long laugh, but they seemed not to have heard it. Not even a glance.
Taixue Guozi supervises martial arts, and these three schools are not far away. They have seen many wild scholars singing, laughing, and roaring proudly.
Xiao Yuesheng hugged Xie Xiaolan's waist, ignoring the soft and slender feeling on his hands, and took a few steps to reach the embankment. Xie Xiaolan was still confused. He walked a few more steps. The crowd on the embankment was like pebbles in the water. Two swimming fish passed through nimbly, and in a blink of an eye, they had reached the south end of the embankment.
At the southern end of Sudi, under the willow trees on the embankment, a pair of people stood quietly, but the shadows under the trees could not hide the fluttering white clothes.
"Second brother, younger brother and sister!" Before anyone arrived, the voice came first. As soon as the words were finished, Xiao Yuesheng hugged Xie Xiaolan and appeared in front of the pair of figures like a smoke, laughing.
¡°Brother¡ª¡ª!?¡± In a clear voice, a handsome adult man walked out from the shadow under the willow tree. He had slender eyebrows and bright eyes, a nose like a gallbladder, and a long sword hanging on his waist. It was Yang Guo, the Condor Hero.
"Haha, second brother, why are you here? Oh, where is your Brother Diao?" Xiao Yuesheng patted Yang Guo on the shoulder and asked with a smile.
"I've seen you, brother!" Xiao Longnu was dressed in white, still beautiful and refined, without a trace of earthly fireworks, and she bowed lightly with her crotch folded.
"It's time to get over it!" Xiao Yuesheng waved his hand and, without teasing her as usual, pulled Xie Xiaolan beside him and smiled at the two of them: "Well, this is your sister-in-law, let's meet her!"
"Sister-in-law?I've met my sister-in-law!" Yang Guo's expression changed, showing a bit of surprise, and then he put it away, but the sister-in-law's voice sounded hesitant.
Xiao Yuesheng glared at him. This brother's temperament has never changed. You don't need to use mind-observation skills to know what he is thinking. The little female dragon is still indifferent. She seems to be expecting the sudden appearance of a sister-in-law. Or seem indifferent.
Xie Xiaolan, on the other hand, was generous and generous. She called herself brother-in-law or sister-in-law, with an elegant expression and no hint of displeasure. She was no stranger to Mrs. Yang Guo. As Yang Ruonan's first teacher in piano skills, she naturally gained the respect of both of them.
"Second brother, didn't you say you were going to the north?" Xiao Yuesheng naturally didn't say much. He pushed aside a few willow branches hanging in front of his eyes, walked towards the embankment, and looked at the West Lake reflected in the lake's light, thus changing the subject.
"Well, I'm going to Beijing?, before going, I went to Lin'an to visit some friends. Yang Guo followed him, looking at the scene of the West Lake filled with lanterns and flowers, his eyes sparkling under the light of the lake.
"Oh¡ª¡ª?" Xiao Yuesheng turned his head and looked at him, half-smiling but not smiling. Under the dim light, it made people feel unfathomable.
"Really!" Yang Guo quickly emphasized his tone.
"There is no three hundred taels of silver here! Where is your Brother Diao? Why is he not around? Haha, you are still talking to the elder brother!" Xiao Yuesheng curled his lips with a hint of disdain.
Yang Guo couldn't help but reveal a wry smile, "Brother Diao stayed at the Villa. He followed our couple around all these years. It was too hard on him, so I asked him to stay in the woods of the Villa to rest for a while."
"Well, that's right" Xiao Yuesheng smiled noncommittally, stopped talking, and just looked at the lake quietly.
As the night wind blew, the sound of strings of silk and bamboo, and the slow chanting of soft songs came from high and low, lingering in their ears. The soft singing, even listening here, was heart-pounding. The heart beats and the blood pulses.
The two women behind them were whispering.
Yang Guo didn't take seriously his eldest brother's romantic nature, but he had nothing to do. He no longer had the courage to teach others how to behave. He was just doing it for a few sisters-in-law, but he didn't know that they were so stubborn and content with their eldest brother's unkind acts. Accommodation is really frustrating.
As soon as Guo Fu entered the house, she married another one. Alas, I wonder if Uncle Guo and Aunt Guo will be angry if they find out!
Although Xiao Longnu has a cold temperament and does not take the initiative to be enthusiastic towards others, this is still the case after so many years. But when Xie Xiaolan talks about Yang Ruonan, Xiao Longnu naturally talks more. As a parent, what she likes to talk about most is herself. children.
"Second brother, how about we go play in the lake together?" Xiao Yuesheng turned his head and asked loudly with a hint of teasing, and the other two women couldn't hear him even if they didn't want to.
"Forget it, brother, those singing girls and dancers are already in such miserable condition, why should we bother to have fun with them again?" Yang Guo could see through his brother's intention to laugh at him at a glance. He is also a smart and witty person, so he will not sit back and wait for death. .
"Haha, if everyone thinks like the second brother, then won't they starve to death?" Xiao Yuesheng chuckled without any shame, "Is it possible that I am afraid that my younger brother and sister will not like it?" As he said this, he turned and glanced at Xiaolong behind him. female.
"You can go if you want, don't worry about me." Xiao Longnu said calmly.
Yang Guo sighed, Long Er said this, and he fulfilled his elder brother's wish, allowing him to laugh at him without fear of being henpecked.
??
"Alas, the country is so beautiful! The country is so beautiful!" Xiao Yuesheng abnormally did not continue to tease, frowning at the prosperous and dream-like scenery of the West Lake, shaking his head and sighing.
"Second brother, in two days Ruonan and Xiaoyu will arrive at La'an. You can take her for a walk. Ruonan is old too. It's time to go out and see the world." Staring at the lake, Xiao Yuesheng felt a little emotional. said.
Yang Guo laughed, his long hair gently blowing in the night wind blowing from the lake, and his handsome face had a sense of sprightliness, "It's time for you, brother, we can't control this little girl!"
"Haha" Xiao Yuesheng mentioned Yang Ruonan, and his somewhat heavy heart suddenly lightened up, "Your sister-in-law always blames me for not being able to teach my daughter well, and I taught Ruonan bad things."
Yang Guo smiled: "Fortunately, my sister-in-law is here!"
Xiao Yuesheng also burst out laughing, his laughter was clear and clear, spreading along the lake, and the waves of soft and charming sounds were immediately suppressed by it.
When the laughter stopped, he waved his hand, "Let's go back, we won't have fun at all with a henpecked guy like you here!"
With that said, he turned around, brushed the willow, and walked back.
"What a brilliant internal skill!" A shout sounded like the cry of a crane, and a figure flew out from the boat in the lake, walked on the waves, and reached the embankment in the blink of an eye.
This middle-aged man has a slender figure, three strands of clear beard under his chin, a face like a crown of jade, and eyes like bright stars. He has a long sword leaning on his back, and the apricot-green sword tassel flutters gently. He has a strange appearance and an elegant temperament. Really no worse than Yang Guo.
But when he looked around, the person he was looking for was nowhere to be found.
He quickly jumped up and flew up to the willow tree with the lantern hanging on it. As the willow branches and the lantern swayed lightly, he looked far into the distance. But above the Su Causeway and under the lamps, there were many pedestrians, and he didn't see the people he wanted to find. With his appearance, searching for a needle in the sea will yield no results.
Under the astonished gazes of the surrounding tourists, the branch swayed, and this person was already swooping down from the tree to the lake like a roc, with his long gown fluttering, stepping over the side of a beautiful ship, and like a skillful swallow, he was swooping into a magnificent ship. In the majestic boat, he came and went like the wind, extremely swift, and those who saw him beside him,I just feel dazzled.
A faint voice floated out from Hua Fei: "Prime Minister, he has left."
"Thank you sir, forget it, haha, come on, give me a toast to sir!"
Although this sound is quite powerful, the energy in it is much weaker, and the people on the embankment cannot understand it.
The four people's light skills were so wonderful that the weaving pedestrians did not hinder their path. They were like swimming fish, moving freely and flexibly among them. In the blink of an eye, they had reached the north of the embankment.
Xiao Yuesheng had a slight smile on his face, thoughtfully, that person just now was also an incredible master in the martial arts world.
Xiao Yuesheng's house in the city is located in Taipingfang in the south of Hefang Street. It is a place where the emperor's relatives and dignitaries are chasing after each other. The mansion where he lived in the past has been changed to Longxiang Palace. It is in the middle of this square, and Xiao Yuesheng's The house is very close to Longxiang Palace, only two mansions away.
Although the other three people had little to do with the officialdom, when they saw the magnificent mansions they passed by, and the servants in front of the mansion, most of them had their eyes raised and arrogant, they knew that this place was not accessible to ordinary people. Come.
Seeing Yang Guo¡¯s confused look, Xiao Yuesheng chuckled and said, ¡°Eldest brother just saved a noble man by chance, second brother, there is no need to stare so wide!¡±
They walked along the neat streets. Under the illumination of countless lamps on both sides, it was as bright as day. The lotus pattern on the blue bricks under their feet was clearly visible.
When passing by a mansion, I thought this one was the most majestic, with golden eaves and majestic momentum. Several nun sedans were parked in front of the mansion, and more than twenty sedan bearers in brown clothes covered their hands, stamping their feet and chatting. Xiao Yuesheng and his four others, who were chatting and laughing loudly, immediately stopped talking and lowered their heads with a very respectful look.
Xiao Yuesheng and Xie Xiaolan were both dressed in fur robes. Even if ordinary people wanted to touch them, they would hardly get the chance. Moreover, the four of them were very popular. Although these bearers were lowly servants, they were not unscrupulous men. , all have some discernment, and one look at the four of them shows that they are not ordinary people.
"The wine and meat in the Zhumen stinks, and there are people freezing to death on the road!" Yang Guo passed by the mansion gate and turned a blind eye to the four soldiers standing in front of the mansion with polished armor and swords on their waists. He looked through the open main door at the brightly lit outer courtyard. , sighing loudly.
"That's Prince Rong's Mansion, the biological father of the current prince." Xiao Yuesheng didn't even look at it, he just smiled lightly.
Yang Guo was startled for a moment. Although he didn't know anything about Prince Rong, he was frightened by the prince's biological father. He didn't say anything more and followed his elder brother forward. The two women behind him didn't look there either. Brilliance.
Xie Xiaolan was born in a famous family, and later studied piano with Guo Chuwang. She has seen a lot of these splendors and wealth, and she also knows the hard work behind the glitz.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: Passed by two rather simple houses, everyone stopped in front of the mansion with a plaque inscribed by the royal family.
"Second brother, this is my house." Xiao Yuesheng said as he stepped forward and knocked on the door.
Yang Guo looked at the mansion in front of him with a bit of surprise in his eyes. As far as he knew, his eldest brother had always been luxurious and had the style of Kolaigong of this dynasty. In front of him, the red paint was broken and the two lanterns were desolate. The mansion actually belongs to the eldest brother?
With the sound of the copper ring clanging, an eye appeared in a small hole next to the door. Xiao Yuesheng laughed and cursed: "Old boy, come out and open the door!"
"Ah, it's the young master who's back!" An old voice full of surprise came from behind the door, and then the painted red door was opened with a creak, revealing a fat old man with a round face and nose, and a smooth, chubby chin. His face is full of honesty, which is reassuring at first glance. Judging from his appearance, he is only middle-aged, far less old than his voice.
"Master, you are finally back!!" The old boy's round face bloomed like a pomegranate, and he suddenly burst out of the door. He rushed towards him and fell to his knees. His agility and agility made even young people sigh in admiration. like.
"Okay, let's talk after we go in!" Xiao Yuesheng also had a smile on his face. He flicked his sleeves to stop him from kneeling, and walked towards the house without holding back his hands and giving way to Yang Guo.
Yang Guo felt something in his heart. When the old boy's body froze and he straightened up again, he could already feel the depth of this old boy's martial arts.
He took a serious look at the old boy, and then walked inside, wanting to open his eyes wide and see if the inside of the house was as dilapidated as the outside.
He would not care about Lao Tong's martial arts skills. The people under his eldest brother were all highly skilled in martial arts. If they were not proficient in martial arts, it would be strange to him. However, Lao Tong's skills were too terrifying. He Just a little surprised.
At this time, the old boy was following Xiao Yuesheng. Yang Guo looked at him and thought it was strange. His steps were very different from those of ordinary people. His strides were extremely small, but his speed was fast. His fat body seemed to be carrying someone when he walked. With lightness.
After entering the door, Yang Guo realized how big this mansion was, but it was only full of plants.The front yard is lined with pine trees, pine trees, and green bamboos, and is as wide as four gates. Covered by plum blossoms and green bamboos on both sides, there are pebble paths leading to the courtyards on both sides, and the courtyard is quiet.
"Old boy, there's no need to disturb the servants. You can go to sleep too!" Xiao Yuesheng stood in front of the hall, turned around and ordered to the old boy who was following him closely.
At this time, they had walked through the front yard, which was nearly fifty feet away, and came to the front hall of the double-eaves building. Yang Guo looked at the four dragon-carved pillars rising into the sky in front of the hall, and could only sigh at the luxury. - Didn't finish reading?
