MTL - Wings of Hung Chien-Chapter 81 81
After listening to the guzheng played by Yun Ruo, Bai Yi nodded slightly. It means that he has passed the exam today.
It’s only been over a month now. I didn’t expect that Yun Ruo’s sense of sound was so excellent. Although the **** was not very fluent, he grasped every sound extremely accurately. Now all he has left is diligence and proficiency.
Books and chess are not at all to worry about. I learned these two things from Ah Cang at an early age, especially playing chess. Ah Cang's chess skills are really not very good, at most they can only be at the top. But Yun Ruo has become a master.
His martial arts have also laid a good foundation, and it can be seen that he has practiced with Ah Cang a lot.
"Today's Mid-Autumn Festival night, there is a lantern festival in the North Outer City, let's go for a walk." Bai Yi said to him slyly.
"...She will go too?" Yun Ruozhen knew the elegant meaning by listening to the sound of the strings.
Bai Yi nodded at him gently, and couldn't help but praise him: Yun Ruo is really a man with a clear mind.
"Remember, don't recognize her."
"Yeah." He replied in his mouth, but he felt a pain in his heart...
"Red plum and white chrysanthemum will lead the way for you."
"Um."
…….
At this time, a familiar figure caught Si Hongcang's eyes. And that figure was rushing straight towards her? !
Could it be ------------
no….
How could Ruo Ruo appear here?
And the boy who was running straight towards them rushed in the direction of Si Hongcang with his head sullen. Are the four sun, moon, and stars guarding Si Hongcang a vegetarian? He hurriedly reached out to stop and grab the boy's shoulders, preventing him from rushing forward.
Just kidding, now some people just raise some boys to be assassins in the crowd? They've heard a lot of things like this!
The boy was pinched and screamed, but he still screamed at Si Hongcang.
"Miss, I'm the fifth son of Rongguo! I got separated from my family, and I was targeted by the gangsters again. Please save me!"
In fact, he dared to lean on Si Hongcang's side so boldly, because he mistakenly mistook Si Hongcang as a certain son of a family who disguised himself as a woman.
When he shouted like this, Si Hongcang had just talked to Riyue Xingchen about "abduction". At this time, Meng Ran saw a real person. Is the kidnapped or the official son? !
Si Hongcang immediately let Bai Chen go in the direction Zhang Li said, looking for someone suspicious, and asked Bai Xing to let the young man come over.
But she was cautious after all, not letting Zhang Li get close to her, but four or five steps away from him.
"You said you were the Fifth Young Master Zhang of the Rongguo Mansion, but what evidence is there?" Bai Xing asked this question when he saw that this son's clothes were not luxurious, he just looked like a son of an ordinary family.
Zhang Li looked behind him in shock, only to see that Si Hongcang's guard was really chasing the long-faced woman who had been following him, patted his chest, and said crisply, "I have no evidence, my family raised my father to fear that I would stare at the kidnappers. I didn't even let me get dressed, so I was still being watched. Please send someone to take me back to Zhang Mansion in Fengyi, Dongcheng, and I will know the truth as soon as I go. My mother and father must be very grateful."
He didn't dare to bother others to deliver it in person, but it was always possible to send someone to take him back.
As soon as Si Hongcang heard this, he knew that 80% of it was true.
Si Hongcang wanted to **** him back, but he was robbed by Bai Ri when he opened his mouth.
"Young Master Zhang, I'm really sorry, our young lady only took the four of us with us. Why don't I go to your house to report a letter, you can go with our young lady first, and I will let your family pick you up at the Hujiang River Embankment. how are you?"
Si Hongcang also nodded to Zhang Li with a smile on his face, indicating that she meant the same.
Zhang Li was so frightened that he wanted to go home quickly. But he also knew that what the day said was true. After he looked at Si Hongcang's outstanding temperament and her dress, he looked at the four sun, moon, and stars who were guarding her. And Si Hongcang, who can carry such a family guard, is afraid that his identity should be very precious.
Besides, if she lacked a lot of protective staff in order to send him home, and something really happened, it would be his fault.
So he simply nodded.
"I've listened to the lady, Zhang Li thanked him first." Zhang Lifu bowed down, and his etiquette was very good. At first glance, he knew that he was not a son of a small family.
At this point, the four guards of the sun, moon and stars have already believed in nine points.
Several people walked side by side to the West City, and the crowds were surging along the way. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are shoulder to shoulder. As soon as Si Hongcang saw the number of pedestrians that had multiplied several times since he arrived at the West Market, he couldn't help but stunned,
"Isn't it that there is no official lampstand set up this year? Why are there so many people?"
"Even if there is no official lantern festival, tonight is the night of adoration, and unmarried young men and women will still use this day to go out for a night tour." Although Bai Xing was also startled by the number of people, he still took the words of the young master.
Only then did Si Hongcang realize that this was a collective blind date in disguise? !
"I just broke up with my family not far in front of this place. I came out with my sister and my foster father, and brought seven or eight generals, but just now, dozens of people came from out of nowhere to squeeze us together. I My sister and I were pushed away in one fell swoop...
I was going to go back to find my family, but I found a woman with a long face was always looking at me, so I casually followed behind an uncle, asked him the way, and followed him for a while. Later, when I found out that the woman had been following me, I knew that the woman had bad intentions and only dared to go to those shops along the road. Later, when I saw you on the opposite side, I hurried over to ask for help. "Zhang Li recalled what happened just now, and he was still afraid.
He was thinking of a guard who could follow such shrewd and capable guards. Even if it wasn't a granddaughter of a prince, he was afraid that he would belong to an official family. When the time comes, it would be better for him to report his name and ask for help, than to kidnap him.
"The guards around you seem to be more reliable than ordinary people, and they are more conspicuous than others." Zhang Li lowered his head shyly.
"Zhang Wuzi is afraid that he has encountered special people who have kidnapped boys for a long time. These people don't dare to start with children from rich and noble families. They specifically look for some middle-aged boys who have never suffered hardships and are not too young. After a few years of training, you can make a shot. These people swarmed up and scattered people, found the target and ran away, often even if they saw it, they couldn’t catch up.” Friendly attitude, but also a few words.
"Young Master Zhang is so alert, it's a great blessing." Si Hongcang said to him gently.
"Shoot? Where did you train to shoot?" Zhang Li asked dumbly.
"Go to the kiln...cough. Anyway, shoot in a bad place." Bai Xing rubbed his nose uncomfortably. "In short, it's really good for Mr. Zhang to meet our young lady."
Of course, Si Hongcang knew what Bai Xing meant. It is to sell people to places like brothel kilns.
Si Hongcang didn't feel that he had helped Zhang Li at all, but Bai Xing and the others had been protecting themselves.
"The fifth son of Zhang is really smart and knows how to save himself."
"Miss is exaggerating."
Zhang Li was thirteen years old this year, at a shy age. Although he was frightened, he still smiled.
Si Hongcang now only has Yun Ruo in his heart. He thinks that there is no man in the world who is more beautiful than Yun Ruo, but it is very attractive to her. At this moment, he also thinks that Li Yi has two dimples when he smiles, which is really cute.
"Miss, let's go buy a river lantern!" Bai Xing pointed to the stall along the river with great interest. In addition to the people who put out the lights, the rest are mostly lamp sellers.
The four bright guards around Si Hongcang, Yue, Xing, and Chen, guarded the master and squeezed out a path to the front of a stall selling lamps. Si Hongcang and the guards picked it out for a while, and each took a boat lantern.
"Chenghui, it's a total of two taels of silver." The owner of the stall laughed from ear to ear. These nobles chose high-quality river lanterns, and the price was not cheap. Just five lanterns sold for a lot of money.
Moreover, this kind of river lantern also has a gimmick, which has always been the most popular among sons and scholars. It's just that she didn't expect that this young lady who looked like she came from a high school would also like it. Unexpectedly, she was even more delighted.
Bai Xing paid the money, and the boss brought out five thick, impermeable flower notes. The notes were not small, and when folded in half, they were about the size of the bottom of the boat light. She smiled and handed them over to Si Hong. Cang and White Wolf and White Star laughed and said,
"Miss, the housekeeper, this is the wishing card for this ship's lantern. After folding it in two, you can put it in the niche of the ship's lantern. As the ship's lantern floats down the water, it floats far away. You can write your own wishes, and also You can write some words of blessing and put them in this boat lamp, which is also a kind of empathy."
"The shop owner really knows how to do business." Si Hongcang praised the shop owner, "Just by adding an extra wishing card, the shop owner's lantern will immediately stop being tacky."
"Miss praised it. This is not an idea. Speaking of this boat lantern, there is still a good story. Last year, on the Spring Festival, a scholar who was preparing for the spring festival set up a lantern by the river. Maybe he wrote a poem out of a joke. , the poem says that if she inscribes her name on the Ruojin Bang, and the person who finds the river lantern goes to her with the river lantern, she will surely satisfy that person's wish."
The boss saw that there were young ladies with a few entourages around the stall at some point in time, thinking that they might like to hear stories, so he vividly told a beautiful talk about a talented woman and a beautiful woman that was widely rumored last year.
"Later, this scholar was really named on the Golden List, and after high school Tanhuaniang and the Golden Palace passed her name, she was assigned the position of renunciation and ascended to the sky in one step..."
Bai Xing whispered and bit his ears with Si Hongcang, "The store owner is talking about Lu Jiaqin from the same village as you. The only one in Feng Country who was directly appointed as a benefactor by the sage on an exception basis."
The stall owner didn't know the identities of the lamp buyers in front of him, and he continued to tell the story of the flower girl with all his might.
"Since ancient times, when putting on river lanterns, there is a custom of putting one and returning one. When you put one lamp down, you have to pick up one in exchange. So, the river lantern of Tanhuanian was taken by a young lady. The son picked up, and even kept the signature on the wishing card in his heart. After the Tan Hua Niang was inscribed on the golden list, the family of the son looked for him with a river lantern. That lady Tanhua really married this son, and it was a wonderful story."
"I know her! She was Tanhua Niang last year, and now she is brother Gao's wife." Zhang Li smiled excitedly.
"You also know the Lu family... Tanhuaniang?"
"I met Brother Gao several times at the flower lottery fair. At that time, they were still unmarried."
"Miss, that boss is lying. Gao's family is Jeju Gaomen, Gao Gongzi's mother is the wine sacrificer who is in charge of the Imperial College, and Lu Tanhua was a high-spirited wine sacrificer back then. How could it be because of a river lantern? It's a pro. This boss is not sincere, he wants to sell lamps like crazy!" Bai Xing shook his head and spit in Si Hongcang's ear.
Sure enough, behind the story is three percent true and seven percent false!
If there is no such thing as the river lantern, I am afraid that the boss will not be so sworn, and dare to take the marriage of the second sister of the Lu family as an anecdote. But this marriage can be done, I am afraid I also told Bai Xing that the second sister of the Lu family is the student who sacrificed wine. It is normal for the master to betroth his son to his proud disciple, and this coincidence is included in it. Heaven is done.
Si Hongcang poked Bai Xing's forehead with a smile, signaling her not to talk too much, thanking the boss for his story first, then asking the boss for a pen and paper, and writing it on the wishing card.
What she wanted most was to be with Yun Ruo, but this was blocked by her cheap mother of the same age. It is not easy to realize your own desires at this moment.
Because there were so many people, Si Hongcang gently protected Zhang Li by his side.
At this time, Yun Ruo, who was not far away, happened to listen to Hongmei's advice and happened to look at Si Hongcang.
When he first saw the person coming, he didn't quite recognize that she was the wife. However, looking at such a familiar body and her distinctive temperament, he recognized it immediately, it was his wife and master Si Hongcang.
When she was full of excitement and excitement, she saw a splendid shadow beside her...
Although Bai Yi had already made it clear to him, there were many beauties around his wife. But what I heard was always different from what I saw with my own eyes. I didn't expect it to be so heartbreaking...
Two lines of teardrops slid down...
Yun Ruo was worried, she couldn't bear to look any longer, she turned around and left.
After Hongmei and Bai Ju met, they both shook their heads and sighed at what happened to Yun Ruo, but they could only feel helpless for him.
At this time, several people have already started to write.
Bai Xing looked at Si Hongcang curiously. asked, "Miss, what are you going to write?"
Si Hongcang covered the flower paper he had written and glared at Bai Xing.
"If you wish to be seen by others, it won't work!"
"What, this is all a trick to deceive children, why is the young lady just like a child..." Bai Xing looked at Si Hongcang, who was like an urchin, with a funny look. He also took a pen and wrote it on the flower note.
Zhang Liyi couldn't help laughing as he watched Si Hongcang and Yue Xingchen laugh regardless of their superiority or inferiority. I thought to myself, the master and servant get along very well.
Si Hongcang looked at the shadow of the moon on the left side of Huajian.
Somehow I remembered the words "Shui Tiao Song Head", isn't this the portrayal of me at this time?
Su Shi: The head of the water tune.
When is the moon? Ask the sky for wine.
I don't know what year is the palace in the sky?
I want to ride the wind back home, but I am afraid that the high place will be too cold.
Dancing clear shadow, like in the world?
Turn Zhuge, low Qi household, according to no sleep.
There should be no hatred, what is the long way to go?
People have joys and sorrows, and the moon is cloudy and sunny,
This matter is ancient. Nung, moon and new moon.
Si Hongcang originally intended to write against Yun Ruo, and on the flower note, he mentioned "water tune song head". Deliberately signed "Yannan, Cang".
During the joy, Bai Xing picked up the pen and wrote "the sun rises, the better is the best", the meaning of the words is nothing more than that if she is promoted to the captain of the guard next to the young lady in the coming year, then the person who picks up the ship's lamp can come. Find her and she treats him/her to a meal.
She didn't dare to write a promise to others casually, what if the person who picked up the river lantern was a big bug?
Bai Yue and Bai Chen grabbed the pen and thought about it. They wrote the words "Guotai Min'an" and "World Peace" on the flower paper, and then signed "Yue" and "Chen", folded them in half and put them in the boat lights. on the deck.
Looking at it this way, among the group of people, the two of them wrote the fastest.
Si Hongcang and Zhang Li, accompanied by Yue Xingchen and three others, put the boat lamp into the river. Seeing that they drifted farther and farther, they could no longer see them. They asked Bai Xing to borrow a long bamboo pole and let them go from afar. I took five lamps and came up.
Bai Xing first handed a boat light that he had fished up to Si Hongcang.
Si Hongcang's was a lotus-colored boat lantern, and when he picked up the flower sign, his whole body froze!
The flower sign is also written on the "water tune song head"
Looking at the beautiful and very familiar font on the flower sign...
This…….
Who else would it be if it wasn't written by Yun Ruo? ! I actually wrote the same song as myself, I really have a heart-to-heart!
Now, she's going crazy!
It turned out that Yun Ruo was also here tonight. Too bad I didn't see him...
It was no accident that Bai Xing would give her this boat light!
She nodded to Bai Xing with joy on her face, expressing her gratitude. After that, he carefully guarded the boat light in his arms, and no one was allowed to touch it.
Seeing Si Hongcang's actions, Zhang Li thought to herself, shouldn't it be the boat light that her sweetheart put on? !
Zhang Li was also very happy for Si Hongcang in his heart, and secretly wished her: May she and her lover be married in the end.
That…..
What about yourself?
