Sir, don't shoot! [Quick Transmigration]

Zhou Lancang returned home and unfolded the golden paper only when no one was around.

There were only a few simple words on it. He frowned and read it several times, but he still couldn't figure out what Li Yuanyin's intention was.

Is this rejecting him in disguise?If so, why not explain it to him face to face?

Besides, if he was really turning a corner and refusing, Li Yuanyin could send someone to deliver the letter without so much trouble.

When the date on that piece of paper was getting closer, Zhou Lancang still couldn't figure out what Li Yuanyin meant.

Despite his doubts, he followed the instructions written on the paper.

On the [-]th of the twentieth month, by the Jingnan Canal.

During the Qingming Festival, people in the capital, rich or poor, prepared fruit baskets for sacrifices during the day, and took their children to sweep new graves.

After visiting the grave, I stopped by to play in the suburbs. For a while, there were many tourists and there was an endless stream of squares and cities.The peddlers along the way include wine sellers, cakes for food, and toys for field games.

There is an endless stream of sedan chairs decorated with willows and flowers from Beijing to the suburbs.Many ladies from wealthy families usually do not leave the front door, and they take advantage of the festival to go outing in the wild to get some fresh air this day.From daytime to dusk, until night fell before I was willing to go back.

The son and brother have another place to go.Hundreds of restaurants and prostitutes in the capital hung colorful flags in front of the gates, and the bustards stood at the gates to attract customers, and soft voices could be heard from the carved windows on the balconies from time to time.

As the night darkened, the lanterns hanging on the eaves of the restaurant were lit up one by one, and the number of tourists increased instead of decreasing.

On the banks of the canal in the south of the city, there is another beautiful scene.

Dozens of exquisitely built painting boats along the coast can faintly hear the sound of silk, bamboo and string songs.The lights and candles are shining, reflecting on the sparkling river, shining with the waves, like a dream.

Zhou Lancang walked along the canal alone.

There are crowds of pedestrians on the street, and occasionally there are pairs of young men and women passing by, looking at the boats in the river and the vendors hawking along the street.

Zhou Lancang walked among the crowd, but his face did not show the cheerfulness of a festival. On the contrary, he looked as if he was going out on errands. Without squinting, he went straight to the most beautiful boat on the river.

There are two pavilions on the front and rear of the boat, each with a height of three floors, stacked in layers, and there are flying bridges in the middle to connect with each other.

In the center of the main pavilion, there is a plaque with the words "Tianshuifang" written on it, and the ink is free and easy.

Zhou Lancang walked onto the boat along the plank road on the shore, and was immediately greeted by waiters.

Tianshuifang is one of the most famous places for fireworks in the capital, opposite to Huixian Tower in the city.

Zhou Lancang seldom set foot in this kind of place on weekdays, he was not familiar with the way, and the waiters also saw him ashamed.However, although the crown hat and accessories on his body are not extravagant, they are all made of high-quality materials.The waiter came to greet him every day, with sharp eyes, he knew that his background was not ordinary, so even though he looked young, he still greeted him politely on the boat.

The eaves of the pavilions on the ship are scattered and shaded, the bead curtains and emerald curtains are layered and connected, and the red candle wind lanterns hang on the corners of the eaves and sway with the wind, which is graceful and charming.

As soon as Zhou Lancang stepped into the pavilion, several women in gorgeous clothes gathered up immediately.

The leader is a mature woman, with pink face and vermilion lips, phoenix hairpin and cloud temples, and her gestures are undiminished.Presumably she is the bustard of Tianshuifang.

"What a handsome young master." She blessed Zhou Lancang, smiled coquettishly, and said in a gentle voice, "I have seen the official, dare to ask the official's surname? This time, which beautiful woman do you want to find to accompany you?" ?”

Zhou Lancang grew up and had never seen such a battle before. He returned the gift in a hurry, and answered bravely, "I'm looking for Miss Liu Yuqin and Liu."

Liu Yuqin is the top brand of Tianshuifang. She is extremely beautiful and famous in the capital, and her piano skills are even more outstanding.There are countless dignitaries who nominate her to accompany her every day.

The madam thought she was used to seeing such famous visitors, her smile did not change, and she responded fluently.

"Miss Liu has been invited by officials a long time ago, and she still can't get away now. If the official doesn't mind, I will point out a few ladies for you. They are all rare beauties, and each has a little artist or two. , Calligraphy, painting, piano and chess are up to you to choose, what do you think?"

Zhou Lancang shook his head.No matter whether it is a beautiful country or a vulgar fan, he would never have caught his eyes. If Li Yuanyin's letter hadn't specified that he should come to Tianshuifang to look for Liu Yuqin on the night of Qingming, I'm afraid he would never step into this place in his life. Class place.

"I just want to find Miss Liu, and I don't need anything else. If she's not free right now, I'll wait here until she's able to see guests." When he said this, he didn't seem like an ordinary fireworks customer stalking Virtue, but sincerity.In the eyes of the madam, it was a bit silly, but she also had a good impression of him.

"Since the official insists on this, the servants are not too reluctant." Qing Que smiled slightly, turned around and said, "Send the official to your seat, the food and drinks are well served."

After hearing what she said, the girls responded with sweet voices, and led Zhou Lancang to a private seat by the window.

Delicious food and wine were quickly laid out on the table, but Zhou Lancang was in no mood to eat and drink, at most he reluctantly moved his chopsticks a few times under the urging of several women.

He was already shallow, and after several glasses of wine, he became a little dizzy, and the thoughts in his chest surged up uncontrollably.

He thought of the few barbed thorns piercing into the horse's hoof, and the neighing of the horse before it died.Even though he was sent to the palace in his early ten years, he had never experienced the turmoil and treachery of the Great Inner Court as deeply as he is now.

If an outsider thinks this way, what does Li Yuanyin, who has been in the center of the storm since birth, feel in his heart?

What is the real intention of Li Yuanyin passing the book to him?

With the smell of alcohol, Zhou Lancang's cheeks became hot, and he fell down on the table in a daze.

During the period, the woman who accompanied him talked to him and held his hand as a sign of affection, but he ignored it and even pushed her away.

The women in the entertainment hall were all extremely understanding, seeing that he didn't want to be disturbed, they went to ask the madam for instructions, and quietly retreated.

After an unknown amount of time, someone came to nudge him on the shoulder.

He smelled a scent of powder in his nose, so he didn't even lift his head, and said in a muffled voice: "I've said it several times, I don't need a girl to accompany me, I just want to see Your Majesty."

The visitor laughed lightly, and the laughter was as clear as a silver bell.

"Earlier, the official was nagging about seeing Miss Liu. It's only been a while, but he's talking about someone else."

Zhou Lancang heard the other party say Liu Yuqin, so he tried his best to get up with his forehead.

"Miss Liu can see me?" He was still drunk, and still sleepy, and his speech was a little slurred, which made the girl in front of him cover her mouth and laugh.

"Isn't it? Mama sent me to take the young master to see Miss Liu, will the young master follow me or not?"

"Of course I'm going." Zhou Lancang lost most of his sleepiness when he heard that.

He was half-drunk at the moment, and he didn't remember anything except the note that Li Yuanyin gave him was engraved in his mind, and he only wanted to see Liu Yuqin.

As for why you want to meet, it's not that important. In short, Li Yuanyin told him so, and he just did it.

"Then, my lord, please come with me."

The girl who was sent to lead the way for him said no more, turned around and led him through the main corridor, and walked towards the auxiliary pavilion at the stern.

Both sides of the main corridor are stained windows pasted with gauze paper. From each elegant room, there may be the sound of Qingyue singing, or the sound of drinking and punching.The lamps and candles are flickering, and the shadows are scattered, and the ambiguous lamp shadows flicker between the veils.

From time to time, beauties with bright make-up and beautiful clothes stepped out of the private room, and then turned to another compartment.On the corridor, Yingying, Yanyan and Yanyan circled back and forth, which was dizzying.

However, Zhou Lancang didn't bother to look at the other women from the beginning to the end. His brows were slightly frowned, his thin lips were tightly pursed, and the hands in his sleeves subconsciously stroked the golden note that Li Yuanyin gave him.

The girl who led the way came to the end of the corridor, turned around and went up a very narrow staircase. At the end of the staircase was a singing platform, on which a woman was playing the flute, and the other two were singing in harmony.Several drinkers jostled and jostled, and bumped into Zhou Lancang head-on.

He dodged it sideways, and then turned his head, only to see the guide stepping on the stairs behind the singing platform.

At the end of the stairs is a fence, standing on the fence, you can have a panoramic view of the riverside scenery.

Zhou Lancang was staring at the swaying river in a trance when he heard a call behind him.

"My lord, please come here." The girl who led the way stood in front of a sliding door, bowed and said, "The innermost wing room is the one, and the slave's family will send it here, so I don't need to accompany you."

When Zhou Lancang stepped into the door, he was greeted by layers of bead curtains and emerald curtains, covering the front of the entrance.

He lifted the curtain and entered, passing through the narrow and dark entrance, there was a faint fragrance floating in his nose.

The wing room is located at the top of the Tianshui boat, as if it is independent of all the hustle and bustle, and even the noise of the drinkers is completely inaudible.

From the private seat to the wing room, the circuitous route almost made him dizzy.Even if he had no interest in female sex, he couldn't help but wonder at this moment, what kind of celestial figure Liu Yuqin is, it must take so much trouble just to meet her once.

Walking through the long and narrow hallway, the spacious wing room is suddenly open to the eyes.

There is a guqin in the center of the room, but no one can be found anywhere.

Zhou Lancang looked around curiously.

On the other side of the wing room, there are several large windows facing each other. When he opened one of them, he saw the deep river water tumbling under it. From a distance, there was a line of colorful lights on the other side of the river, reflecting the lights of thousands of families in the distance. .

Further away, you can vaguely see the silhouette of the majestic Miyagi.

It was late at night, and Li Yuanyin didn't know if he had rested.

When he was still the crown prince, the two of them used to take advantage of the festive season to hang out together outside the palace, to see the green willows and weeping poplars in the suburbs of the city, and to buy some novelties in the street market.Now that Li Yuanyin is the emperor, he can no longer enter and leave the palace at will. It is not easy to see the previous side, and it is even more difficult to be able to speak in private.

Everyone said that Liu Yuqin was rare to see in his life, and if he could catch a glimpse, he would have no regrets in his life.

Zhou Lancang was in the wing room at this time, but he left Tianshuifang and Liu Yuqin far behind him, and his thoughts had already drifted to the deep palace forbidden courtyard in the distance.

He was drunk and stared out the window in a daze, not paying attention to the almost inaudible footsteps behind him.

The visitor walked lightly and deliberately concealed his arrival, obviously he was a martial artist.He came a few steps behind Zhou Lancang, and the latter suddenly realized that something was wrong.

The hand on the long knife at his waist moved one step ahead of his thoughts, Zhou Lancang turned around suddenly, half of the long knife had already come out of his body, but he stopped his movements when he focused his eyes on the person coming.

The person who came held his hand holding the knife and laughed softly.

"It's all my fault for making Aiqing wait here for a long time, but even so, there's no need to draw the sword, right?"

Zhou Lancang slowly put the knife back into its sheath, raised his palm and rubbed his face, and after confirming that what he saw in front of him was not a hallucination, he bent his knees and was about to kneel down.

Seeing that he was about to kneel, the other party raised his hand to stop him.Unexpectedly, he was drunk and blew the cold wind for a long time, his feet were sloppy, not only confiscated his momentum, but also slammed into someone's arms.

"Your Majesty..." he said in a nasty voice, his ears turned red all of a sudden, "Forgive me for losing my composure."

"Did they let you drink?" There was another burst of deep laughter. "The alcohol capacity is still so bad."

The person who hugged Zhou Lancang and shook his head helplessly was not Li Yuanyin.

The author has something to say: catch up with the list, try to update QAQ at night
