Huafa Luoyang

Zhuang Jiuyao laughed even more.

Xun Luo gradually frowned, then let go: "You're making fun of me again?"

"Hey." Zhuang Jiuyao smiled, still grabbed his wrist, jumped down from the railing, and wrapped his arms around his waist, "Because I've always liked you all my life!"

Seeing that Xun Luo still didn't speak, he leaned closer to his ear: "You look really scary just now."

"Scary?" Xun Luo raised his eyebrows, "What did I look like just now?"

Without even thinking about it, Zhuang Jiuyao blurted out: "It looks scary."

Xun Luo smiled, stood quietly for a while, then wrapped his arms around his shoulders, and whispered helplessly: "You are such a big man, why do you look like a child?"

"Excuse me, my lord, you are two years older than me." Zhuang Jiuyao smiled, resting his chin on his shoulder, "One day's growth is also growth. I'm only a child, what will you do with me?"

Xun Luo raised the corner of his mouth.

Three days later, the weather was fine.

Zhuang Jiuyao and Xun Luo were playing chess in the courtyard, when Zhuang Ning'er came over, "Master, I heard something interesting, do you want to hear it?"

"Say." Zhuang Jiuyao was playing with a sunspot, frowning and watching the chessboard tightly.

Zhuang Ning'er glanced at Xun Luo, and said with a smile: "People in Beijing who like court secrets have spread that the sun rises in the west, and His Royal Highness Shu Wang has changed his temper now, and dismissed the male favorites in the mansion cleanly. Said that you are going to correct your evil and return to the right."

Zhuang Jiuyao sneered: "And then?"

"I heard that some people don't believe it, and they want to start a game." Zhuang Ning'er smiled, "Let's see if you have any new tricks to play."

"Tsk." Zhuang Jiuyao glanced at Xun Luo, dissatisfied, "I am so innocent, how can I have any tricks?"

Zhuang Ning'er shrugged noncommittally, sat next to the two of them, looked at the chessboard with her chin in her hand, and thought for a while: "Someone should be in a hurry."

Zhuang Jiuyao raised his head and smiled: "Hurry up." He glanced at Xun Luo as he spoke, and asked again: "Is it because the king already has his own heart because you didn't tell others?"

Xun Luo raised his eyebrows and lost his temper.

Zhuang Ning'er covered her mouth and smiled: "Who knows? I'm not going to gossip with those people."

Just as he was talking, the butler outside suddenly entered the yard.

Zhuang Ning'er went up to meet him, the two talked for a while, and after a while Zhuang Ning'er came back with a post in his hand: "My lord, look, you just came while you were talking."

"What?" Zhuang Jiuyao pointed at the bone of his brow with his finger, without looking up.

But Xun Luo saw the cloud patterns on the post, and thought it was probably a greeting post from someone of high status, so he laughed and said: "You princes and sons, are you all so idle?"

"Huh?" Zhuang Jiuyao raised his head, took the things in Zhuang Ning'er's hands, opened them, looked at them twice, and threw them aside with a "tsk".

"Who?" Xun Luo asked.

Zhuang Ning'er smiled, and replied, "Jiang Houye."

Jiang Tong, the son of the late founding hero Yingwuhou of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Zhuang Jiuyao, the prince of Shu, has always had little contact with the outside world, Jiang Tong is an exception.He took the title of the old Marquis, and lived a life without any burdens, no shortage of money, no shortage of people, just sitting on that title, with a bunch of idle children, just loving to be hated.

However, Xiao Yuan was also happy to get used to him, maybe he was thinking of the old Hou Ye's contribution to founding the country, anyway, he has no real power and ambition, and naturally he doesn't ask him to make any achievements for the country.

This Jiang Tong especially likes to hang out with Zhuang Jiuyao, and whenever he has the opportunity, he will submit a message to the Shu Palace.

Although Shu Palace does not allow people to enter, there are always a lot of posts, most of Zhuang Jiuyao ignores it, and only occasionally moves once or twice when he is in a good mood, only Jiang Tong came to invite him, he must go, it is simply greedy The image of the happy, moody and critical prince is vividly displayed.

But now whether to go or not, Zhuang Ning'er is not quite sure.

Xun Luo heard the word "Jiang Houye", looked at Zhuang Jiuyao: "Do you want to go out?"

Zhuang Jiuyao curled his lips: "Others can push, but this Jiang Tong is not easy to push."

"Oh." Xun Luo responded.

"The matter in the harem involved the country, and was later stabbed to the former court. My mother has no mother's family to rely on, and she is only an old friend with the old master." Zhuang Jiuyao pointed to the side of the chessboard, as if thinking deeply, "It's all Lai It was only through the mediation of the old Hou Ye that the truth could finally be found out, and now it is not easy to please him. Besides, I have been grounded all year round. Except for His Royal Highness and King Qi, he is the only one who cares about me. "

Xun Luo nodded clearly, and asked again: "Where did he ask you to go?"

Zhuang Jiuyao looked at him, squinted his eyes suddenly, and smiled meaningfully: "Actor's Hall."

Xun Luo also looked at him, and slowly repeated: "Actor's House?"

Zhuang Jiuyao nodded: "I'll take you to have a look, do you want to go?"

When the two of them left Shu Palace in the evening and walked towards the east of the city, Xun Luo couldn't help asking: "If I don't come with you, why don't you let Ning'er come with you?"

"I'll come by myself." Zhuang Jiuyao smiled, "Qingcheng will usually follow secretly, no, many people will follow secretly."

Xun Luo was speechless for a while, walking half a step behind him, looking at the bustling capital of Great Zhou.

Speaking of this capital city, it is the place where he grew up, but he has never walked on the streets so generously, although it is not a lively time, but this feeling is really the first time.

There is still some time before the curfew at the second watch, but most of the shops have closed, and the street has become more spacious with fewer people.

After passing the official road, Zhuang Jiuyao turned around and entered a narrow street.

As soon as I went to Xunluo, I felt a little uncomfortable. This is clearly Tiaohua Street, and the level of excitement is not comparable to that of other streets.

Lanterns of various colors are shining brightly, not to mention pavilions, terraces and pavilions. Looking past, there is a painting boat that catches the eye, which is extremely eye-catching among the gorgeous houses.After a closer look, I can see that it turned out to be a building that looks like a painting boat.

The light inside made Xun Luo frowned.

Zhuang Jiuyao paused, but Xun Luo always followed behind him, not coming forward.

He bent his eyes: "Right now you are not my protector, but Mr. Pian Pianjia who is traveling with me, don't be so restrained. Come here, get closer to me, in case you are hit by a hydrangea again like last time What can I say if I hit it?"

Xun Luo was taken aback for a moment, remembering that the last time he followed him into the Flower Street, he was thrown a handful of peonies by the short-lived oiran.At that time, I didn't know that he was just looking for a place to hide from the attack, and I seemed to have hinted that he was not temperate.

When I think about it, it really feels like a world away, and suddenly I want to laugh.

Just as he was about to speak, a woman with heavy make-up next to him reached out and tried to pull him. Zhuang Jiuyao suddenly grabbed his sleeve, pulled him, and just avoided it.

Zhuang Jiuyao turned around and smiled at the woman, and held his hand when she turned her head.

Xun Luo turned his head to look at him, and he stared straight ahead: "There are too many flowers and they are too bright, so they must be held together, or they will be lost soon."

He was wearing a toga today, and the cuffs were open, just covering the two hands holding together.

Xun Luo looked down, raised his foot and stepped closer, shoulder to shoulder with him, passing by this flower street.

The bustle of Flower Street gradually came to an end, and the side of the street turned around again, revealing a small alley.

There are many courtyard doors in the alley, and there are lanterns hanging beside each door. People stand under the lanterns, but they don't come to welcome customers like in Huajie, they just stand or lean quietly.

People kept passing by.

Xun Luo took a closer look, those lanterns were actually full of charm, the two lanterns of the nearest house had peach blossoms in full bloom on them, the style was very splendid, but compared with the nearby Flower Street, it was much more elegant.

Standing in front of the alley, Zhuang Jiuyao suddenly turned around and kissed Xun Luo.Xun Luo looked around and saw that no one was paying attention here, so Fang asked, "What are you doing?"

"Don't be angry later." Zhuang Jiuyao smiled slyly, "It's just a joke, I will try not to let others take advantage of it."

As he said that, he was about to walk in, but Xun Luo reached out to wrap his arms around his waist: "It's you, don't take advantage of others."

Xun Luo let go, Zhuang Jiuyao smiled: "If it's your choice, would you take it casually?"

Before he could answer, a person passed by, Zhuang Jiuyao smiled, led the way, and approached the third courtyard gate.

As soon as he passed by, a handsome young man came over: "Master Jin?"

Zhuang Jiuyao nodded, and the young man smiled: "My master has been waiting for you inside for a long time."

"Lead the way." Zhuang Jiuyao smiled.

The yard had been cleaned up by Jiang Tong long ago, and it was very quiet inside, no other guests were seen, only the faint sound of silk and bamboo coming from the side of the lobby, the closer they got, the louder the sound became.

It's clear and tight.

As soon as he arrived at the door, a joyful voice came from inside: "The third master is late, and he will be punished!"

Zhuang Jiuyao stepped into the threshold and said with a smile, "What is the punishment? Master Hou has the final say!"

Xun Luo followed behind and entered, and found that the inside was quite spacious.

Right opposite the door is a huge landscape painting, leaving an open space in front of the painting, a beautiful woman is doing a beautiful dance, and a few girls are sitting on the left side playing music, but a man in white is in the middle.

The man was playing the piano, he looked very calm and relaxed, his appearance was extremely good, it was unforgettable, and he was so beautiful that he was somewhat indistinguishable from male and female.

The speaker is on the right, and it must be that Jiang Tong.

Jiang Tong looked like a man of noble character, very upright, if it wasn't for the fact that he was holding a young man in his arms on one side and a young girl on the other.

This atmosphere in Beijing is really...unspeakable.Xun Luo lowered his eyes.

As soon as Zhuang Jiuyao's voice sounded, the beauty in the middle stopped dancing and bowed gracefully, and the music player next to her also stopped, only the man in white was still playing the piano calmly.

Following Zhuang Jiuyao's gaze, Xun Luo looked at the man carefully for a moment.

Finally, Zhuang Jiuyao smiled: "Continue."

Music and dance started again.

Seeing Xun Luo, Jiang Tong had been looking at him meaningfully for a long time, and now he smiled at Zhuang Jiuyao: "I mean, I heard that the third master dismissed the sons of the family recently, so there is a new favorite?"

Zhuang Jiuyao smiled noncommittally, and sat on the table above Jiang Tong, Xun Luo followed behind him.He looked at the piano player on the opposite side, then looked back at Xun Luo, and smiled at Jiang Tong: "This is my personal bodyguard, Xun Luo."

"I've met Lord Hou." Xun Luo saluted.

"Oh." Jiang Tong nodded without interest when he heard the answer, "I said, you always like bookish people, why did you suddenly find someone who is so unapproachable. Apart from being good-looking, you can't get along with a stone Like, neither talking nor laughing."

Xun Luo raised his eyebrows, recalled some old things, but saw Zhuang Jiuyao's finger stretched behind his back, the index finger and middle finger tied in a knot, and nodded towards him, so he smiled.

Jiang Tong raised his hand, and after a while, someone brought Zhang's case up, and someone brought drinks and food, and put the seat at the bottom, and let Xun Luo sit.

Seeing that Zhuang Jiuyao picked up the wine glass indifferently, he thought for a while and turned to look at Xun Luo, and smiled: "I'm sorry, it's not that you are not good, but from the looks of it, it doesn't look like you can be with the third master. "

"Hou Ye is serious." Xun Luo replied in a calm voice, neither humble nor overbearing.

The three of them stopped talking to him, and just looked at the field with their own thoughts.

After a while, the song ended, the dancing girls and the musicians all retreated, and the man in white who was playing the piano slowly put down his hands, and for the first time faced Zhuang Jiuyao directly: "I have seen the third master."

Zhuang Jiuyao nodded, Jiang Tong glanced at him: "How?"

"What's the matter?" Zhuang Jiuyao pretended not to understand, and took a sip from his wine glass.

Jiang Tong raised his eyebrows and smiled: "I've never touched this before. I let you come here as soon as I saw it. It's the kind you like."

These words are very explicit, it is the usual tone among the children who are having fun, as if they are talking about some unconscious objects.

Xun Luo watched coldly, but did not see the man in white showing the slightest displeasure.

Zhuang Jiuyao thought for a while, raised the cup to his lips, and said after a long time: "If I say that I have repented, would you believe me?"

The young man who was accompanying him got up to pour the wine, Jiang Tong took advantage of the situation and grabbed his waist, the young man grinned, and he said with a smile: "I don't believe it."

"Tsk." Zhuang Jiuyao smiled and shook his head, "I've really changed my ways."

Jiang Tong was stunned, and looked at him with some confusion, and found that he didn't seem to be joking, he was taken aback for a while, then shrugged and smiled: "Okay, you can change it, I'm left alone in this evil place." The road is getting farther and farther."

Zhuang Jiuyao chuckled and said nothing, but Xun Luo felt that Jiang Tong's words had some deep meaning.

Jiang Tong let go of the girl next to him, raised his glass, and muttered, "It's really boring."

"Yeah," Zhuang Jiuyao leaned against the table, propped his chin with his hand, looked back at Xun Luo unabashedly, turned to Jiang Tong and drank the wine in his hand, "no fun."

Hearing this, the man in white got up suddenly, stepped forward and knelt in front of Jiang Tong: "Master Hou, the villain has something to say."
