[Kaifeng House] Qiu Lan Huan Pei

Xin Lan knew that Song Qi was not only a good poet but also a good official, and a capable official who governed the country. He has made many achievements in other aspects, such as "Book of Tang" and "New Book of Tang" with Ouyang Xiu in Wen.

This is such a person, a good person has a fatal flaw, four walls of wine, sex and wealth, everyone hides inside.Song Qi is extravagant, fun-loving and extremely lustful, once he takes a fancy to a pretty girl from a good family, he will do everything possible to take her as his concubine.

It is obviously a scandal of moral corruption, but in that feudal era, it was regarded as a romantic and elegant scholar by those dignitaries, dignitaries, talents, and writers, because Song Qi did not rob women of the people by force, but formally took them home as concubines, and Song Qi also A passionate seed indeed.Once, when he was having a banquet on the Jinjiang River, he felt a little cold and asked his servant to go home to pick up some clothes. His wives and concubines each took one, but the servant actually brought more than a dozen.Song Qi looked at the pile of clothes, at a loss, always worried about favoring one over another, but ended up wearing nothing, endured the cold, and went home shivering.

But for the common people, Song Qi's favorite child who is willing is naturally happy, and the unwilling one can only be that the people don't fight with the officials and endure it.

In the era of power, the lives of the common people are worthless, but Song Qi didn't hurt people's lives, didn't break the law, but stepped on the edge of morality.Bao Zheng was upright, so he got in front of Shengshang right away.In the end, it could only be a helpless ending, after all, Song Qi did not violate the laws of the Song Dynasty.

Shen Lan had foreseen this result a long time ago, and Shen Lan knew that Bao Zheng not only failed to defeat Song Qi, but was considered envious of Bao Zheng and was too harsh for his personal reputation.

Xin Lan scoffed at this, it was because of the difference in class, in the eyes of these high officials Song Qi was talented and made contributions to the country, didn't he just marry a few more women, and didn't do anything against the law or discipline.In their eyes, ordinary people are nothing more than ant people and red people.Hmph, they don't think about what they eat and drink without these hardworking people every day.

Xin Lan couldn't help being angry, the more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and the more she thought about it, the more disgusting she became, suddenly she realized how angry she was?Fortunately, she adjusted her mentality in time. Xin Lan didn't want to cause trouble for herself or anyone else, so she wouldn't talk about these words or thoughts with others, not even Zhan Zhao, or even Pang Tong.

Just keep these words in your heart

On this day, when Bao Zheng entered the palace, Shen Lan heard that it seemed that he was discussing something. Even the king of Zhongzhou, who had not been in court for a long time, went. Of course, he heard this from Mr. Gongsun.It was another normal day, but today I didn't have an appointment with Pang Tong, and Shen Lan didn't bother to go out of the house by herself, so she took an embroidery frame to contact the female celebrity that Xiaoman taught her. Suddenly, Shen Lan's heart moved, as if something big was going to happen .What is it?Leng Leng suddenly remembered, flood.

In fact, there are floods every year, and there have been several major floods in history, but Shen Lan suddenly thought of Yu Chenglong, and remembered the well-known flood control method.

Xin Lan was thinking, blocking is worse than sparse, but it is one-sided to only sparse without gambling, so how about combining sparse and blocking!Thinking about it, Xin Lan started to write, combining her own ideas, strategies, and insights, and took it to Gongsun Ce's yard without stopping, asking Gongsun Ce to take a look.

Gongsun Ce did not expect that this seemingly ordinary girl would have such insights, and the insightful insights in that paper book even had Xin Lan's own insights.

"Xin Lan, how do you know this?" Gongsun Ce asked with doubts.

Of course, Shen Lan can’t say that it’s from reading novels and TV in later generations. “Shen Lan has also read a few subsets of wild history at home, especially the ones related to floods, so Shen Lan can understand it today, and Much of what is written here was taught by my father."

"Xin Lan is very knowledgeable" said with a refined smile "It's just that I haven't practiced my words well"

Xin Lan couldn't help but blush.

"Leave it to me first, and when your lord returns home, I'll give it to your lord for review." Gongsun Ce wanted to study it more carefully.

After Bao Zheng returned home, Gongsun Ce showed Bao Zheng Xin Lan's water control plan, and Bao Zheng was also surprised.

"Mr. Gongsun, what do you think of this?" Bao Zheng asked Gongsun Ce towards the paper in his hand.Although Bao Zheng can also see the weight of the paper, but Bao Zheng is not good at it.But Gongsun Ce knew a lot, and Bao Zheng spoke up following the good principle of asking if he didn't understand.

As a result, Shen Lan was invited to Bao Zheng's study. This was the first time she entered here since she lived in Kaifeng, and it was also the first time she put herself in the middle of something.

In the room, Bao Zheng, Gongsun, and Zhao Zhao group surrounded Shen Lan and listened to Xin Lan explaining the article on paper.

"Since both your lord and your husband think this method is good, Xin Lan dares to ask your lord to report this to the Holy One early, so that this method can be implemented as soon as possible."

"This..." Bao Zheng felt a bit embarrassed, "It's just that it's not yet the season for flood control. If this plan is reported at this time, it will probably go nowhere. And this plan is time-consuming and labor-intensive." , is a long-term solution, and if it is a common practice, even the basic protection works cannot be completed before the flood season.” Bao Zheng also said, “Miss Xinlan, don’t worry, even so, the government will try its best to persuade the emperor.”

"That's right, the butler is a wise gentleman, Miss Shen Lan's hard work will definitely not go to waste." Gongsun Ce also encouraged Shen Lan

Zhan Ye nodded at Xin Lan. In fact, they all knew that this water conservancy project was not Bao Zheng's job. Even if Bao Zheng beat him right, the Emperor nodded, but when it came time to implement it, the choice of candidates was a big problem. It is impossible for Bao Zheng to follow the flood control.

"Master Bao, borrow a pen and paper"

"Xin Lan is free," Bao Zheng nodded.

So Xin Lan copied another copy, and also copied the place where Gongsun Ce revised the remarks.

After finishing writing, he said to Zhan Zhao, "Master Zhan, can you do Xin Lan a favor?"

"Xin Lan, please tell me that Zhan will do his best."

"Master Zhan, please go to the Zhongzhou Palace and give this copy to the King of Zhongzhou," he said, handing the copied copy to Zhan Zhao.

Zhan Zhao looked at Xin Lan in surprise, "Are you sure the King of Zhongzhou will take care of this matter."

Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce looked at Xin Lan thoughtfully.

"Brother Zhan just feel free to go, with our friendship, he won't embarrass you in this matter." Xin Lan said

Instantly, the three of them understood how clever Xin Lan was.Zhan Zhao nodded, didn't say anything, and went to the Zhongzhou Palace with the plan Xin Lan gave him.

"Does Xin Lan know?" Bao Zheng asked

"Of course, the king of Zhongzhou loves the people like his own son, and dealing with natural disasters is the well-being of the people. He, the king of Zhongzhou, will not just sit idly by."

Only smart people know that some things don't need to be explained sometimes, and sometimes people don't need to be too smart.

As Shen Lan predicted, the king of Zhongzhou did not ignore it, but at the same time, he did not rush forward. For a while, many high-ranking and small officials could not understand, and even Bao Zheng, another participant in this matter, was uncharacteristically , without pressing harder and harder.How many people secretly sneered at this, saying that Bao Zheng was nothing more than that, he actually flattered the king of Zhongzhou, they all forgot that compared to their own fear of the prince, Bao Zheng's really was not flattering.

On this day, Shen Lan and Pang Tong met, and the two went out for a date and shopping. Shen Lan took Pang Tong to Zhao's old shop. Zhao's old shop was a gold shop. Girls love gold and silver jewelry. Naturally, she is not a person who is free from vulgarity. She and Pang Tong have often visited the gold and silver shops in Bianjing, and Pang Tong has often given her gifts. Only the items in this old shop of Zhao's are not only high-grade, but also have a unique style.

Shen Lan couldn't help admiring Pang Tong's care for girls. Sometimes Shen Lan thought about Pang Tong's natural gentleness, but he didn't know how many girls he learned about women.

"Miss Xin Lan, Mr. Pang, what do you two want to see today?"

"Bring me some chains and show me," Xin Lan said

Facing the gold chains on the plates in front of her, Xin Lan's mouth twitched, each satisfied

"Boss Zhao, do you have any chains for men?" Xin Lan asked

"Yes, yes, Miss Xin Lan, wait a moment." Boss Zhao asked the waiter to change the plate into a man's style.

Xin Lan looked at the chains on the plate, not very satisfied, no matter how she looked at them, she was not worthy of Pang Tong.

Say to Pang Tong, "Why is it so difficult for me to choose a gift for you?"

"Forget it, then don't buy it." Pang Tong looked at Xin Lan amusedly.This kind of situation happens from time to time. If Xin Lan doesn't like it, she would rather not give it away than buy it to Pang Tong.

"No, tomorrow is your birthday, how can I not give you a birthday present?"

"Do you still remember?" Pang Tong raised his eyebrows and asked amusedly, it would be a lie to say that he was not moved.

Shen Lan was looking down at the waiter's changed plates, and Shen Lan, who was discussing the style and workmanship with Boss Zhao, did not hear Pang Tong's question.

"I said Boss Zhao, how can your things be so thick and exaggerated, even if they are for men, they shouldn't all have the same style."

"Miss Xinlan, you don't know. The man who wears the chain is mostly a rich man, and he wants a rich man to show his holiness. Most of the literati love jade. You want a pure gold chain. Seriously." There are not too many tricks, just two or three sets. There is also the last set, you can take a look first."

The third dish came up, and there were mostly common styles, but one of them looked elegant and fresh, with a special personality.Xin Lan likes it very much.

"Pang Tong, look, do you like it?" Xin Lan asked Pang Tong while holding the chain.

Pang Tong smiled and nodded, Shen Lan didn't know, in the past only Pang Tong bought things for girls, and there was no girl who gave him things like Shen Lan who took her shopping with such fanfare. It felt very novel, but she didn't hate it either.He didn't know how normal it is for a boyfriend and girlfriend to go shopping together in modern times.

"Boss Zhao, this is the only one," Xin Lan said

The author has something to say:

☆、The final chapter loves you and doesn't want to leave you but you want to leave

"Oh, Miss Xinlan, this one is not available today, there is only one of this style, and this one has already been ordered, if you like it, just wait a few days and make a new one for the girl." Boss Zhao was embarrassed Said, I feel a little sorry for Xin Lan.

"Ah?" Xin Lan put down the chain in her hand in embarrassment, she definitely wouldn't want this one, and she wouldn't want other people's things no matter how good they were. "But tomorrow is his birthday, so what should we do?"

"Miss Xin Lan, why don't you come back tomorrow, I'll let them make it overnight today, and you can pick it up before noon tomorrow."

"This will trouble you." Xin Lan knew that if it wasn't for her friendship with Boss Zhao, she would never have done it in such a hurry, let alone not even asking for a deposit.

Xin Lan insisted on paying the money in advance, and even gave some more.

Satisfied, Xin Lan and Pang Tong walked out of Zhao's old shop, "Tomorrow is your birthday, and the family will have a good get-together, so let's not go out, and you can come and pick it up at noon later. In fact, this matter is also up to me, and I should have made preparations earlier. It’s just that I’m too lazy to procrastinate until today, always thinking that I can buy things just by going out.”

Pang Tong said helplessly, "Okay", suddenly wanting to spend her birthday alone with her, it must be very interesting, but he couldn't.Pang Tongtian is not afraid of anything, but he is a filial son. With Grand Master Pang staring at him, how can he escape.

The next day it became clear that Shen Lan, who got up early, was in a happy mood basking in the morning light and eating a steamed bun for breakfast. She stood in the yard and thought about it. After getting along for a while, I naturally stayed in Kaifeng as a rice worm. Unfortunately, this is not the life I want. Kaifeng Mansion is destined to not be able to keep Shen Lan's footsteps. My parents have given me enough money so that I can go out and travel for a while. Years, and now several months have passed, and I have spent a lot of money, so it is time for me to continue my journey.

So Shen Lan found Xiaoman, opened her private pants, and took out her remaining gold, but there were only two or three ingots of gold left, Xin Lan held the gold and looked at them worriedly.

Youyou asked Xiaoman, "How can I make money?"

"Do you really need money? Isn't there still so much money?" Xiao Man said with a smile

"It's too little, it's not enough at all." It's not enough for my own travel expenses, Xin Lan lay on the table thinking, pawing back and forth for the three ingots of gold on the table.

"Xin Lan, why did I never know that you are such a money fan?" Xiaoman said with a smile

Xin Lan rewrapped the gold, "Who would think that money is too much?" Handed the gold to Xiaoman, "Miss Xiaoman, thank you."

After Xin Lan handed the gold back to Xiaoman, she left without worrying at all.

"This girl." Xiaoman smiled and shook his head.

After a while, in the same room, on the same table, there were three gold ingots opened by Xin Lan. There were three people around the table, Xiaoman and Zhan Zhao who were sitting, and Gongsun Ce who was standing.

"I always feel that something is wrong. She has been here for so long and has never cared about the gold. Today she suddenly came to check and said she wanted to know how to make money. I was worried that something happened to her." Xiaoman narrated

"It's just a little strange, but maybe she just thinks that all the money is spent, should I ask Xin Lan?" Zhan Zhao said

"No, if she doesn't want to talk, you can't ask." Gongsun Ce said

"Then who should we ask? Shen Lan is familiar with us and Pang Tong in Kaifeng. Should we ask Pang Tong? I don't think Shen Lan will tell Pang Tong anything that Shen Lan doesn't tell us." Xiaoman said

"Then I have to ask Gongsun to learn more," Zhan Zhao said with a smirk.

"How did I forget, we have Gongsun who is knowledgeable?" Xiaoman also said with a smirk

"Okay, stop making trouble, let's go find Xin Lan's friend in Kaifeng," Gongsun Ce said

"Who else but us and Pang Tong?" Xiaoman asked curiously

"Follow me," Gongsun Ce said, and walked out of the room first, "During this time, Xin Lan has a very good relationship with Boss Zhao, the owner of Zhao's old shop. Xin Lan always researches some new styles of gold jewelry for Boss Zhao. Said it was well received”

"I've never heard of it from Xin Lan," Xiao Man said.

"Xin Lan and President Pang Tong went to Zhao's old shop. She likes to think of styles by herself. It just so happens that Boss Zhao is also a wonderful person. The two hit it off. Boss Zhao gave Shen Lan the opportunity to use her design to make gold ornaments. Shen Lan also I don’t charge Boss Zhao’s money and just do it as a hobby, so I made friends with Boss Zhao.”

"Worthy of Gongsun's erudition," Zhan Zhao said with a smile

"That's right." Xiaoman patted Zhan Zhao's shoulder and said with a smile

"I also happened to know that one of the gifts she gave you was designed by herself." Gongsun Ce completely ignored the teasing of the two.

In Zhao's old shop, three people, Xiaoman, Zhan Zhao, and Gongsun Ce...

"Boss Zhao, did Xin Lan tell you anything?" Gongsun Ce asked

Boss Zhao looked at the three of them in surprise. Just as he was about to speak, a person walked in from the door.

"Boss Zhao" was Pang Tong's voice full of restraint and arrogance.

"Mr. Pang, wait a moment, the little old man will come as soon as he goes." Boss Zhao saw Pang Tong leaving anxiously

Pang Tong turned his head to look at Gongsun Ce, Xiaoman, and Zhan Zhao, "It's really strange, your Kaifeng mansion is very busy today."

"Hey, Pang Tong, why are you here?" Xiao Man asked

"I'm here to get something," Pang Tong said.

So Boss Zhao came out with a big box in his arms. Pang Tong was also surprised. Xiao Man pointed to the box and asked Pang Tong in horror, "Get something?"

"What is this?" Pang Tong asked Boss Zhao

"This is what Miss Xinlan asked me to leave to you." Boss Zhao said to Pang Tong, "There is also this letter that Miss Shenlan asked me to hand over to you."

Pang Tong read the letter, so he opened the box, and his face turned black.

Xiao Man asked Pang Tong, "What's going on?"

Pang Tong didn't speak, he just looked black at the box.

Zhan Zhao asked Boss Zhao, "What's going on, Boss Zhao?"

"Miss Xin Lan gave me this box and this letter a few days ago. She said that one day people from Kaifeng Mansion will come to the store to ask me about her whereabouts, and she will ask me to give these things to Mr. Pang." Boss Zhao explain

"A few days ago?" Pang Tong's tone was very bad, his face couldn't be darker anymore, he was very angry, and Xin Lan made it clear that he wanted to leave without saying goodbye. "Take the things, let's go" Pang Tong said, and the three people in Kaifeng Mansion became followers.

A group of four came to Kaifeng Mansion, Xiaoman stopped the angry Pang Tong

"Shen Lan should be in Xiaomei now. You will scare him if you go in like this. Let me talk to her first." Xiaoman was actually very angry, including Zhan Zhaogong and Sun Ce, who felt that Shen Lan's actions were too much. It's so sad, let alone with her recognized lover Pang Tong, and Xiaoman who is closest to her.

"Xin Lan wake up" Xiaoman entered the room and gently pushed Shen Lan who was asleep

"Sister Xiaoman" Shen Lan rubbed her eyes, her mind was in a state of confusion and clarity

"Xin Lan, tell me honestly, do you want to leave here?" Xiaoman asked calmly

"You know?" Shen Lan smiled, "My father and mother asked me to walk around. They said that reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles, and I have been here in Kaifeng for a long time. Leave to continue my journey."

"Then why didn't you tell us?" Xiaoman asked

"I didn't say I'm leaving now." Xin Lan comforted Xiaoman with a smile, "Of course I'll tell you when I leave."

"What are you going to say? Leave the book and leave without saying goodbye?" Pang Tong walked in with Zhan Zhao Gongsun Ce, and Pang Tong pointed to the box that Zhan Zhao put down, "Then what do you mean?"

Xin Lan walked over and opened the lid of the box. This box was exactly the one she left with Boss Zhao and left for Pang Tong.

Xin Lan saw that Xiao Manhao and Pang Tong were angry, yes, she was going to leave without saying goodbye, if she had encountered such a thing before, she would be very angry, it shouldn't be like this between friends, let alone between lovers.

But are she and Pang Tong lovers? They are lovers, just like everyone thinks, she, Xin Lan, likes Pang Tong, and he, Pang Tong, also likes Xin Lan, but what does that mean? She just wants to get together and get separated. .because

"We are different people" Xin Lan said to Pang Tong "We are people from different worlds"

Pang Tong looked at Shen Lan, and his anger seemed to disappear in an instant. He just looked at Shen Lan like that, and Xin Lan also looked at Pang Tong without sadness or joy. The two just looked at each other until Pang Tong turned and left. Not a word was said.

Xin Lan understands that Pang Tong likes herself, just as she expected, but there is no deeper love.To be loved by Pang Tong is the dream of many women, but for Xin Lan, what she wants is a couple for the rest of her life. If she doesn't get Pang Tong's only love, she would rather not have it.

Pang Tong went out, he knew that he couldn't say anything to Xin Lan, he knew that Shen Lan was a smart, kind, brave and persistent girl, he knew that he liked Shen Lan and even just found out that he liked her more than a little bit, but just like Xin Lan Lan said that they are not the same person, are they?

"What on earth are you thinking? I understand Pang Tong somewhat. He likes you. Do you know how hurtful you are?" , his identity?"

"It doesn't matter who he is, I know he likes me but he doesn't like me enough." Xin Lan looked in the direction where Pang Tong left.

"What's the difference? You also know that he had many women before, but now he likes you." Xiaoman said anxiously

"I don't care how many women he had before, I just care about my position in his heart. He doesn't understand, he still doesn't understand." Turning to look at Xiaoman, "Leave because I want to be retained"

"Why didn't you tell him"

"That will only be the tenderness I want to come. He doesn't love me enough, he knows, so he left."

"So you're leaving without saying goodbye?"

"Yes, I just want to leave him when I don't love him enough, then I am still myself, I am still the free and happy Xin Lan. I am afraid that I will be addicted to his tenderness, I am afraid that I will be reluctant to part with him, I'm afraid I won't want to leave."

"Why do you want to leave instead of being with him?"

"Pang Tong is a great hero, a person with sincere ideas. He can always keep himself awake, not the kind of man who can be shaken, not the kind of man who is centered on women, and love is not his necessity. But I I just love him like this, if I really have nothing else in my heart, I won’t fall in love with such a cowardly him, because that’s not him.”

"I really don't know what you are struggling with, but don't be too sad, he will come back to you when his anger subsides, he is a gentle man, isn't he." Xiaoman comforted Xin Lan.

"Well, Miss Xiaoman, don't worry, I'm fine." Although Xin Lan looked haggard, she still had a bright smile.

"Take a rest, I'm going out first." Xiaoman left thoughtfully, and he pulled Zhan Zhao and Gongsun Ce who were still standing in the yard and walked away together.

In the room, Shen Lan sat on the bed and sang softly, "He still doesn't understand, he still doesn't understand. When he leaves, he wants to be retained. If he speaks, it's just the tenderness I want to come. He still doesn't understand, and he will never understand. A hug Can replace all...”

Tears flowed down uncontrollably, Shen Lan didn't tell Xiaoman, and Pang Tong didn't know, what Shen Lan said was not the difference in their identities, but the difference in time and space, she, Xin Lan, was not from this world, she didn't Knowing whether she can stay here, or whether she will leave, she doesn't know where the future belongs to. Being able to fall in love with Pang Tong is her lifelong dream, but she dare not love too deeply, and Pang Tong Qiaqia is not like that. This kind of person who only loves and obeys, two people are doomed to have no future when they fall in love, besides, besides, has Pang Tong clearly mentioned their relationship!

Shen Lan knew that Pang Tong would not come to her again, they missed her, and Xin Lan was heartbroken beyond measure, but she did not regret it, she would not stop her footsteps, it was time for her to leave Kaifeng Mansion, Bianjing, and Pang Tong.

Goodbye my love, you are the beauty in Xin Lan's heart, Xin Lan is content.

Goodbye my friends, the beauty of your company with Xin Lan, Xin Lan is satisfied.
