Chapter 24 Extra Story General Xie and the Willow Head Card

Zuiyue Tower is extremely lively today.

Liu Yuan was sitting in the gauze tent in the small attic, waving a satin fan, pushing aside the delicate pearl curtain, and saw Mama Hua coming up with her big butt twisting.

Liu Yuan greeted the maid beside her: "Xiaohuan, open the door for mom."

"Yes."

As soon as Mama Hua came up, her eyes were wide open, and the powder in the corners of her eyes was caught by the crow's feet. "Oh, Yuan'er, you are really blessed. Mr. Luo came again today. As soon as he saw me, he asked for your contract of sale and wanted to redeem you."

Hearing this, Liu Yuan shook his fan and laughed mockingly, "Mom, don't be joking. In the past few years, there have been 99 or [-] people who wanted to redeem me, but I'm not still in this Zuiyue building. It's a sacrifice."

Mother Hua: "Oh~ Yuaner, my mother also wants you to go, but your identity is different from others after all. After all, your father...you are the daughter of a criminal minister. This court handed you over to me. Naturally, this Zuiyue Tower will not let you out easily."

Liu Yuan stood up, with a graceful posture, and walked to Mama Hua, "Since that's the case, is Mama telling jokes like Mr. Luo redeeming me?"

Mother Hua looked around to make sure there were no outsiders, and then whispered to Liu Yuan: "Why don't you say that your life is good! You don't know who this Mr. Luo is, his father is under one man and above ten thousand Right Prime Minister, redeeming you is as easy as pie."

Liu Yuan walked to the window and saw the usually bright moon, but today she was covered with a smoky white veil, reflecting the sparkling waters of the Drunken Moon Lake.

Said softly: "I'm afraid it's a disaster, not a blessing."

Mother Hua didn't hear it and asked, "What?"

Liu Yuan smiled: "It's nothing, I'm afraid I'll be happy too early, and then I'll have nothing to do with the bamboo basket."

Seeing her charming smile, Mother Hua caressed her face: "It's right, good boy, mother has no other skills in her life, she is very accurate, Mr. Luo will come to pick up the deed of sale tomorrow at the latest, you go with him After that, forget about the sad things in the first half of your life."

Liu Yuan: "Mama, don't worry. Then, you'll have to ask Mr. Luo for more money."

Mother Hua smiled happily, "You still love Mom the most, and I really hate you to leave!" Looking downstairs, "Yo, Mr. Shan is also coming up. I'll go down first to say hello, he probably wants something from you, and you are ready to prepare it too. "

"it is good."

Mr. Shan really ordered Liu Yuan's sign, Liu Yuan tidied up and walked to Siqin Hall.

Unexpectedly, besides Mr. Shan, there was another person in the hall, who looked like a jade-faced scholar with a very clear figure.

Mr. Shan was still cheerful and active, and inserted the newly picked jasmine in his hand on Liu Yuan's head, "It's beautiful, as expected of a talented fairy, with jade bones and ice muscles."

Liu Yuan smiled, "It's also strange today, and it's the first time I've seen Mr. Shan bring someone over. I don't know this Mr., what's his name?"

The scholar bowed and said, "My surname is Xie."

Shan Gongzi: "My brother Xie is not ordinary! He is well-versed in the world, knowledgeable about the past and the present, and has a wealth of knowledge. He is usually very cold and has never been close to women, so I brought him here to see and see."

Liu Yuan looked at him out of the corner of his eyes, "Oh, Mr. Xie is really a person with deep affection. I don't know that General Xie Jingxi, who won the battle in the Northwest and returned to Beijing, and you..."

Mr. Xie: "The heroes of that class are absolutely unattainable."

"Young Master Xie, don't underestimate yourself. The person who can make Young Master Shan tell the world is probably not an ordinary person."

Mr. Shan looked arrogant: "That's right! Young master, I don't usually praise people." Then he said to Liu Yuan: "Miss Liu, quickly play your best song "Jackdaw Playing in the Water", let us thank you Brother tasting and tasting."

Liu Yuan Shiran sat in front of the zither, "Okay, let Mr. Xie laugh."

After the song was played, Mr. Xie applauded, "It is said in the market that the willow head card of Zuiyue Tower is unparalleled in the world. I didn't expect it to be a rare treasure with both talent and beauty."

Liu Yuan smiled politely: "Thank you, Young Master, for the award." He went up to pour wine for him.

During the time when Young Master Xie went to the toilet, Liu Yuan picked up the jug, slowly poured a glass for Young Master Shan, and poured another glass for himself, "Thank you for taking care of you these years, I respect you for this glass." Then he raised his head and drank it down .

Young Master Shan was startled, and grabbed her wrist, "Why did you say that all of a sudden?"

Liu Yuan lowered his head: "Mother Hua told me today that Mr. Luo wants to redeem me."

Shan Gongzi: "To redeem you, you want the emperor's charter, does he have the ability?"

Liu Yuan smiled: "His father is the right minister in the court, so he probably used some tricks."

Mr. Shan was silent, just drinking one glass after another, "It's just because I'm incompetent. I can't avenge Uncle Liu's revenge, and I can't even protect you well."

There were tears in Liu Yuan's eyes, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Without you, I'm afraid I would be decapitated by now. Cheng Zhi, this is a good thing, don't blame yourself."

Shan Chengzhi's staring eyes turned red: "Even I know that Luo Xin is not a good person! Uncle's death back then..." Xie Jingxi walked in and saw Luo Xin, a tough man He even shed tears and wanted to laugh.

Xie Jingxi: "What's the matter? Master Luo has always been fearless, why did he drop the golden bean?"

Liu Yuan smiled apologetically, "Speaking of some sad things, Mr. Xie should not be offended."

Xie Jingxi smiled softly, "How could that be?"

Not long after, Shan Chengzhi drank himself down.

Xie Jingxi walked to the window, "The location of Zuiyue Tower is really well chosen by you, and the east boat and the west boat are silent."

Liu Yuan continued, "I only see Jiang Xinqiuyuebai."

Xie Jingxi looked back at her, "Miss Liu, this is not my ambition."

Liu Yuan smiled, "I'm a little geisha, how can I know where I want to go."

Xie Jingxi put his finger between Liu Yuan's lips, "Don't say that." Then he said, "Give me your hand, girl, I have a little knowledge of divination, today I am destined, I will show you for free."

Liu Yuan blinked, "Mr. Shan said just now that Mr. Xie is not a womanizer, why did he become a disciple in a blink of an eye?" Then he handed him his hand.

The corner of Xie Jingxi's mouth was smiling, and he was obsessed with the catkin of the willow head brand, and looked carefully.

The more he looked, the bigger the curve of the corner of his mouth became, causing Liu Yuan to ask him: "What are you laughing at, Young Master? What kind of doorway can you see?"

Xie Jingxi patted her palm twice, let go, with an unpredictable expression, "Miss Liu, luck and misfortune."

The two stayed in Zuiyue Tower for two hours, and it was already pitch black when they left.

When he was about to leave, Shan Cheng was unable to walk steadily, Xie Jingxi held him up and down, and Liu Yuan supported him: "Then please trouble Mr. Xie."

"No trouble, Ms. Liu can go to bed." He helped Shan Chengzhi onto the sedan chair.

After the two of them walked away, a guest next to him said, "Isn't that General Xie? Didn't it mean that General Xie doesn't like women, why did he come to Zuiyue Tower?"

Guest B: "Could it be that your eyes are dazzled and you misread?"

"Well, it's also possible."

********************

On the second day, Luo Xin was indeed invited to redeem Liu Yuan. Mother Hua first smiled, but when she was sending Liu Yuan out, she suddenly burst into tears, and there were white lines on her crying face.He secretly took out a pendant as green as emerald green from his sleeve, stuffed it into Liu Yuan's hand, and said in a low voice, "You wore it when you came here, and I kept it for you in case you were confiscated. You take it today."

Liu Yuan wiped away tears for Mother Hua, "Don't cry."

Mother Hua nodded, "Yes, you can't cry, you are following Mr. Luo to enjoy the blessings, and it's a good thing."

Liu Yuan straightened Mama Hua's clothes, "When I'm not around, you have to take good care of yourself."

"You too, the Prime Minister's Mansion is not an easy place to live, so be careful yourself."

In fact, Liu Yuan never took a step into the prime minister's residence.

Luo Xin settled her in a private house with a nice view, but not close to the capital.

Liu Yuanming didn't speak secretly, "I know Mr. Luo has great ambitions, and you must have spent a lot of trouble to get me. I'm afraid it's not just for the sake of the golden house, right?"

Luo Xin: "As expected of a descendant of the Liu family, Miss Liu is really smart."

When Liu Yuan heard him mention Liu's house, he gritted his teeth: "Now that things have come to an end, don't you say such polite words?"

Luo Xin: "Okay, then I won't go around in circles with you. Do you know General Xie, who has been famous in the capital recently?"

"know."

"This man is a talented person. He pacified the Northwest at a young age. He was named a general by the Holy One. He is in control of the military. It is a pity that he lacks political acumen. Now the court is unstable. The faction headed by the Seventh Prince is trying to shake the Crown Prince's position in the Eastern Palace. It's really ulterior motives. And this General Xie doesn't occupy any side in today's politically clear court. You have to know that under such a political situation, a neutral faction like General Xie will definitely die a miserable death."

Liu Yuan looked surprised: "Oh? Really? It seems that Mr. Luo wants to save General Xie from the fire and water?"

Luo Xin: "Exactly. It's just that General Xie is so stubborn that he invited Miss Liu to give me a helping hand."

Liu Yuan smiled charmingly: "Beauty trick?"

Luo Xin smiled: "Miss Liu, this task is not easy to do, General Xie, but if oil and salt are not allowed in, not only is it not good for women, but it is also not good for men. I am afraid that you will grow an elm head. Look at Miss Liu's charm."

Liu Yuan: "It's done, what's the benefit to me?"

Luo Xin: "It's definitely what Miss Liu wants most. Freedom. How about it?"

Liu Yuan: "But it's disrespectful."

The banquet was scheduled to be held in the prime minister's mansion. Liu Yuan wore a dress of emerald smoke and silk, tied up her hair, and danced a song "The Immortal Guides the Way".

After Liu Yuan danced, her breath was still a little unsteady, and she looked at General Xie on the seat with a familiar look.

Luo Xin embraced her and walked towards General Xie, and said to General Xie: "This is Miss Liu Yuanliu of Zuiyuelou, who is so beautiful in the world, her appearance, dancing posture, and piano skills are unmatched by anyone in Beijing today, and her talent is also first-class. One, I guess we can hit it off with Brother Xie."

Xie Jingxi stood up and bowed to Liu Yuan, "I have admired Miss Liu's name for a long time."

Liu Yuan leaned over, "General Xie for the award, it should be because my family has admired the general's name for a long time."

After exchanging polite greetings, Liu Yuan sat beside Xie Jingxi, pouring wine and serving dishes, and whispered to him, "Young Master Xie, ah no, General Xie, you really are hiding something."

Xie Jingxi smiled slightly, "My name is Xie Jingxi."

Liu Yuan raised his eyes to look at him, "The slave family is polite."

After the dinner party, Luo Xin naturally pushed Liu Yuan to Xie Jingxi, Xie Jingxi wrapped his right hand around Liu Yuan's slender waist, and firmly caught it.

Xie Jingxi called the sedan chair, and said to Liu Yuan, "The journey is a bit long, you can go back in the sedan chair, and I will walk back."

Liu Yuan: "I'm with you, and I will live up to such a night scene."

Xie Jingxi looked at the darkness and smiled, "Okay."

General Xie has tall legs and long legs, one step can keep up with Liu Tau Pai two steps, Liu Yuan really can't keep up, panting and grabbing Xie Jingxi's cuff, "Slow down, I can't catch up."

Xie Jingxi turned her head and slowed down her pace as expected, grabbed her hand, "Sorry, I'm used to being in the army."

Liu Yuan smiled, "What's it like in the army?"

Xie Jingxi: "It seems that Miss Liu doesn't know everything."

Liu Yuan: "..."

Xie Jingxi: "They're all rough guys, nothing interesting."

"Then how come General Xie doesn't look rough at all."

"Maybe it's because I'm lazy and stay in the military tent all the time, so I can't get out of the sun."

Finally arrived at Xie's Mansion, the gatekeeper seemed to be very old, walked into Xie's Mansion, only one lamp was lit in the hall, it looked very dilapidated, very different from the brightly lit Zuiyue Building.

Unbelievable, this turned out to be the mansion of General Xie, who holds a lot of power.

Xie Jingxi: "There are only Uncle Sun and Aunt Sun in the mansion, and there is no one to serve them. I guess you will have to suffer a little bit in the future."

Probably saw the question in her eyes, Xie Jingxi was very understanding, "General Xie, it's just me, isn't it a bit disappointed?"

Liu Yuan: "Rather than being disappointed, it's more difficult to guess what kind of person you are."

Xie Jingxi squeezed her hand, "There's no need to speculate." He arranged her in the side hall and rested himself.

Liu Yuan looked at the dimly lit room, thinking that he, a famous artist of his generation, had fallen to this point.He even laughed out loud.

During the few days in the Xie Mansion, it seemed that he had returned to the days when he was the eldest lady in the Liu family before his father died. No, this is not accurate.

Although at Liu's house he had to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting every day, he didn't have to eat and change clothes by himself.Even in the Zuiyue Building, I never have to do some rough work by myself.

But in the Xie Mansion, I really couldn't bear to ask Aunt Sun to help with the laundry.

But life is carefree, picking flowers today and harvesting dew tomorrow, there is also a different kind of elegance.

One day, Liu Yuan learned how to make sugar-steamed custard with Aunt Sun. Xie Jingxi came back from court, and Liu Yuan ran to the door to pick him up and help him change into court clothes.

Xie Jingxi watched her fiddle with buttons, "What are you going to do today?"

Liu Yuan smiled: "Learn how to make sugar-steamed shortbread with Aunt Sun, and after eating it on Qixi Festival, I'll be haunted by it."

Xie Jingxi: "Okay, I will take you to ride a horse in two days."

Liu Yuan jumped up regardless of his image, "Okay, okay," stretching out his little finger, "It's a deal."

Xie Jingxi smiled and hooked her fingers, "You have changed recently."

Liu Yuan touched his face, thinking that he hadn't washed his face seriously recently, "Have you become ugly?"

Xie Jingxi pinched her face, "It's beautiful."

At night, Xie Jingxi was taking a bath in the room, and Aunt Sun asked her to help bring General Xie's dirty clothes.Seeing that Xie Jingxi didn't take the obscene clothes that Xie Jingxi usually wears after bathing, Liu Yuan thought of sending them to him.

General Xie didn't close the door when he was taking a bath. Liu Yuan walked behind the screen and saw Xie Jingxi...in the body of a daughter?

Standing at the door in amazement, I didn't even know how to move.

The sacred pillar of protecting the country that frightened the enemy on the battlefield turned out to be a daughter.

Xie Jingxi sensed that there was someone at the door, and turned to see the stupid Liu Yuan.

"Yuaner? What's wrong with you?"

Yanagihara: "Uh...um...you, are you?"

I thought Xie Jingxi would be at a loss, but she stood in the bucket and laughed, showing her white teeth, "I thought you already knew, it seems Miss Liu is not so smart."

Liu Yuan: "?"

Xie Jingxi: "Come here and help me rub my back."

Wow, how can you be so natural? !

After that night, Liu Yuan has been in a rather awkward mood, but because General Xie is very magnanimous and doesn't care about gender exposure at all, it makes Liu Yuan feel 'what's so awkward'.

Life is still going on day by day, General Xie has a lot of salary, it seems that the family doesn't spend much, but fortunately Liu Yuan is here, and usually takes Aunt Sun to go shopping here and there, and go home to do some shopping every day.

Xie Jingxi was training in the martial arts field, and when he got home, he saw Liu Yuan arranging a pile of old books and old chessboards, which filled the whole room.

Xie Jingxi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "What did you buy again? It's a pity that you haven't sold out the store yet."

Liu Yuan tugged at her, "I found a white jade chessboard today, change your clothes quickly, let's kill two chessboards."

Xie Jingxi: "Then help me change it."

Liu Yuan wrinkled his nose, "No, change it yourself!"

Ugh.

It's a pity that the good times don't last long, the days are gradually getting colder, and Xie Jingxi also comes back every day later, and one day he didn't even come back until the third watch.

As soon as I got home, I saw Liu Yuan dozing off with his head propped up by the coal lamp. Xie Jingxi hugged her in a hug. Liu Yuan woke up, rubbed his eyes, and wrapped his arms around her neck, "Why did you come back? Did you go out to drink flower wine?" gone?"

Xie Jingxi kissed her forehead, her lips were cool, "You are at home, where can I drink flower wine?"

Liu Yuan was in a daze, and didn't quite understand her words.He was carried back to the bed in a daze.

The next day Liu Yuan went shopping on his belly, and received a secret letter from Luo Xin.

Letter: All defeated, task changed, kill.

Liu Yuan burned the note, her fingers trembling.

Xie Jingxi didn't come back until three o'clock in the evening, and Liu Yuan brought her the ginseng tea that Aunt Sun had heated up in the pot. Xie Jingxi was reading the book of war, and took it directly and drank it down.

Liu Yuan looked at her with deep eyes, and asked, "Aren't you afraid that I'll poison you?"

Xie Jingxi smiled, pulled her over, hugged her and sat on his lap, "You brought her here, how can I not drink?"

Then he buried his head tiredly in the socket of her shoulder.

Liu Yuan hugged her, "You seem to be very busy recently."

Xie Jingxi: "I'm almost done. It's getting cold in central Beijing recently, why don't I send you and Aunt Sun Bosun to Jiangnan for a few days?"

Liu Yuan pulled her away, "What about you?"

Xie Jingxi looked relaxed, "You guys go first, I'll take care of the matter at hand, ask the Holy Father for leave, and then go find you."

Xie Jingxi moved as he said, packed his luggage on the second day, and the three of them set off on the third day.Because of the haste to go, no one told.

After rushing for 7 days, we finally arrived in Yangzhou.Before he came and packed his things, he sent a letter to Xie Jingxi to report that he was safe.

The place where I live is far away from the market, and I have to drive a horse-drawn carriage every time I buy something, but luckily I bring enough money.

One day, Uncle Sun went out to do some shopping, and Liu Yuan followed him. Sitting in the gazebo drinking a big bowl of tea, he heard two young men chatting at the next table.

Little Brother A: "Have you heard? Something big has happened in the capital recently!"

Brother B: "I heard that the crown prince of the East Palace rebelled and forced the palace, and there is also the right minister to help. You said that the right minister is in a peaceful and prosperous world, but why do you have to persuade the prince to rebel? Wait a few years and you will have everything. .”

Little Brother A: "That's right! This kind of rebellious officials and thieves, everyone has to punish them! Fortunately, General Xie stabilized the situation, not only saved the Holy One, but also vindicated Master Liu, who died in vain. But it's a pity Thank you, General! A good generation of virtuous ministers, that's all..."

Liu Yuan's hand holding the cup shook, and the teacup fell off.

She was wearing a veil, her voice trembling: "Please ask the next two, General Xie... General Xie, is he dead?"

Brother B: "Yes, the obituary issued by the court today. A dozen or so people in the house were all killed by Prime Minister Luo's people, and the famous prostitute Liu Yuan was burned to death alive. Tsk, what a pity."

Liu Yuan staggered and stood up, but luckily Uncle Sun arrived in time and called her, "Miss Liu! Miss!"

Liu Yuan was so angry that he fell into a coma at home for three days, and only opened his eyes at dusk, feeling that his eyes were blurred and he couldn't see clearly.

Facing a white figure, he said dumbly, "Aunt Sun, pour me some water."

The white figure came over and helped her sit up, with a clear voice, "Are you awake? You can really sleep."

Liu Yuan rubbed his eyes, "Xie...Jingxi? Are you not? Are you not?"

Xie Jingxi blinked: "Dead?" He laughed.

"But, but I heard that they said you... died."

Xie Jingxi bowed his head, kissed her forehead, and blew into her ear, "I didn't say it, don't believe it."

As soon as Aunt Sun entered the door, she saw Liu Yuan woke up, and threw the basin in her hand on the ground excitedly, "Old man! Old man! Miss Liu is awake, quickly serve a bowl of noodles. Miss Liu likes to eat bean sprouts, put more!"

Xie Jingxi embraced Liu Yuan, "It's really great."

Liu Yuan asked, "Why would His Majesty let you go?"

Xie Jingxi gathered the quilt and wrapped her up tightly, "The meritorious service is so powerful, the Holy One wishes I could 'retire from old age and return to my hometown' as soon as possible."

Liu Yuan regained his strength, stretched out his arms to hug her, "What's going on?"

"This is probably another long story. Let me tell you a bedtime story every day."

Liu Yuan nestled back into her arms comfortably, "Okay."

Xie Jingxi: "Then, let's start over."

"it is good."
