Dreams in Paradise

The situation in the court was treacherous, and A Wu and Shan Lingyu had less and less time to take him out, so he secretly rode a horse to Chunfeng Shili to see the peach blossoms.

When the servant of the General's Mansion saw him, he seemed to see a life-saving Bodhisattva. He hurried forward and said respectfully: "Master Liushui, please go and see my little general. He is drunk again. Your lord general asked me to bring him back. When he saw the villain, he started to fight, and the villain really didn't know what to do."

Liu Shui got off the horse, went to the building where King Hong Luo had been booking, snatched the wine from his hand, and said expressionlessly, "Go, I'll take you back."

King Hong Luo was overjoyed when he saw him, and said: "You come to pick me up, and I'll go back."

Spring Breeze Ten Miles is in the bustling downtown of Shangjin City, and there are people on the street who are celebrating a wedding. A groom is dressed in a wedding dress, wearing a big red flower on his chest, sitting on a tall horse, his face is red, and he is beaming.

King Hong Luo crookedly rode his horse and stopped side by side with Liu Shui and waited for the wedding procession to pass by. He suddenly took Liu Shui's hand and said, "Li Moqi, I want to marry you in a wedding robe."

Everyone on the street looked sideways.

Liu Shui looked at the chariots and horses welcoming the bride, looked at the bridegroom who was walking away, and said in a daze: "If the flowers fall here, I will marry him too."

He took his hand out of King Hong Luo's hand, and said: "Now that he's gone, I won't get married either."

King Hong Luo got drunk and shouted on the street: "Li Moqi, I want to marry you!"

Liu Shui rode in front on horseback, and he chased after him shouting, and the whole spring breeze was heard all over the place.

The eye sockets are moist with running water.I can't come back, Li Moqi can't come back, Hualuo can't come back.In this life, neither he nor King Hong Luo could marry.

Whether it's the Xipao, the big red flowers, or the excitement of the big horses playing and dancing, they all belong to others, and he has nothing.

Perhaps if there is one place in this world that belongs to him, it is Xiaocang Mountain.

He wants to go back, to his Xiaocang Mountain.

He and Hualuo's red flowers are still there, and the peach tree that Hualuo gave him is still in Xiaocang Mountain.

He wants to go back and wait for the flowers to fall.

Spring is still the day when Master travels far away.

He hadn't seen his master for a long time.

Back at the house where He Hualuo lived, the two white horse Tianya lamps were still hanging, but the red flowers on the window sill were gone.

Could it be that he ran away with long legs again?

I am used to the waywardness of flowers in Xiaocang Mountain, but I never thought that the flowers planted in jade pots would also disappear.

He searched around, but the flowers just ran away, and the jade basin was gone.

He wanted to ask the two old servants, but he couldn't find anyone.

I almost forgot, the old servant of Xiaocangshan is also very capricious.Every year when the master goes far away, they also go to see their old friends.

Everyone has an old friend to see, so is Cheng Hua?The jade pot was reluctant to give up the red flowers and also followed them?

Liu Shui was shocked by Xiao Cangshan's expression again.

When did even a flowerpot look so proud?

He doesn't believe it.I searched Xiaocang Mountain all over, and found that the dead peach branches that were chasing flowers and putting them on the couch in the past are still there, it doesn't make sense that a flower pot can become a flower.

cant.

He immediately went down the mountain and asked King Hongluo, Awu and Shan Lingyu all over, but no one took the potted flower.

He rushed back to Xiaocang Mountain to find a pot of flowers.

No.

Xiaocangshan where outsiders can’t come to, a pot of flowers that are so thin and weak that they can’t be seen as flowers is gone, no one wants anything, and they don’t take so many silver notes under the pillow, so they only take the potted flowers.

Who else cares about such a pot of flowers?

Only flowers fall.

Only when the flowers fall is it rare to see a red flower with buds the size of rice grains.

It's time to come back.

He went down the mountain overnight to look for Hualuo in the former Taiwei Mansion.Weeds overgrown inside and outside Taiwei's mansion, cobwebs were like dust, and it was pitch black. Where did the figure come from?

He sat at the gate of Taiwei's mansion and didn't want to move anymore.

Where did the flowers go?Why didn't you come to him when you came back?Still haven't found him?

A Wu found him with a torch, brought the dazed man back to the palace, and placed him on the couch in his bedroom.

He said: "Hua Luo is not dead."

A Wuben was reading an article at his desk, when he suddenly heard someone talking beside him, he didn't respond for a moment, he just looked blankly at the person on the couch.

Liu Shui said: "He went back to Xiaocang Mountain to look for me, and took the pot of red flowers away. I'm going to find him."

Awu rubbed his eyebrows.The obsession with running water has become a habit, but after a long time, the situation in the court is fierce again, he has no intention to turn his heart to comfort this incomprehensible person, so he can only nod, lower his head and continue to read the article in his hand.

Then, as if thinking of something, he said, "No way!"

Liu Shui was startled by his sudden sound, froze, closed his eyes, and remained silent.

I don't know how long it has passed, A Wu has already fallen asleep, he is used to sleeping with the lamp on, and when it is dark, he is worried about the flowers falling, and he keeps his eyes open thinking about that person who doesn't know whether he is dead or alive.

The night was dark and windless, Liu Shui's ears moved, he pinched the peach-leaf knife in his fingertips, and walked behind the curtain on Awu's bedside.

The door of the dormitory was gently pushed open, and a man dressed as a servant came in, with a thick quilt in his hands, at first glance he thought he was coming in to add a quilt.However, there was no sound under his feet, and even the dozing watchman at the entrance was not disturbed. When he came in, the running water knew that this person had extraordinary skills.

The man slowly approached Ah Wu's bed, pulled out a hand, and let out a cold light.

The flying knife pierced the man's wrist first, and the man kicked out after that, forcing the man to retreat again and again.Liu Shui picked up the dagger that had fallen from the ground and threw it at him, flying knives along, the man knelt on his knees, trying to get up and escape through the window.

Several fights alarmed the guards, and the bedroom was surrounded by an iron bucket.

The chief guard suppressed the man and wanted to take him to the third prince for interrogation, but the man lowered his head and let no one push him.

Liu Shui said: "This person is dead."

When the chief guard saw that black blood flowed from his mouth and nose, he quickly knelt down and confessed.

A Wu said: "Check carefully to see if there are any omissions."

The chief guard looked at this person over and over again, but there was no recognizable trace.

A Wu waved his hand, only him and Liu Shui were left in the bedroom.

A Wu said: "Do you know why I envy you? I have been so frightened since I was a child, but I still can't guard against it. Now my father's illness is getting worse day by day, and some people can't sit still."

Liu Shui's heart was suddenly filled with guilt.

A Wu is in dire straits every day, but he still has to look around at night for him.He was afraid that he would commit suicide and people would stare at him from time to time, and that he would find ways to wander around with him when he was bored.Why did he ever think about A Wu whose life was always missed?

He lowered his eyes and said, "Let me protect you!"

He raised his head, looked into A Wu's eyes, and asked, "Do you need my protection?"

A Wu never thought that Liu Shui would say such words.Also tonight, Liu Shui said he was going to find Hualuo, but now he was willing to stay for him, and said he would protect him.

No one has ever said to protect him, he has always tried to protect himself.

His eyes were hot and humid, he hugged the running water, and said: "If it wasn't for you, my life would be over by now, you tell me if I need it or not."

Liu Shui said: "When your important matter is settled, I will go find Hualuo."

A Wu said: "I'll help you find it."

Flowing water hooked her lips, "Are you willing to believe me?"

A Wu said: "I will not stop you from doing anything."

Liu Shui has always been that idiot who values ​​love and righteousness. How could he try to change such a person and stop such a person?

Forget it, everything is up to him, anyway, he will survive now.

From then on, Liu Shui lived in A Wu's dormitory. He didn't want to show his true face to others, so A Wu ordered someone to specially make him an exquisite and flawless white jade mask.He didn't want to use his real name, so he took his master's surname, a single name with a Yi character, to remember and miss Hua Luo.

I don't know when, people in Awu Palace began to call him Mr. Gao.

Liu Shui never cared about these things, and let others call him if he wanted to.

The situation was treacherous, with sudden changes several times.Shan Lingyu supported the third prince on behalf of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Soon the old dynasty will go away, the third prince kills his elder brother and assumes the position, a new dynasty is established, scientific examinations are held, and talents are selected.

A Wu said: "When I was first established, everything was unstable, and no one in the court could use it."

Flowing water blinked.

A Wu said: "Liu Shui, I need you."

Liu Shui said: "I agreed that I would leave when your important matter is settled. Now that the important matter is settled, Ling Yu is also helping you. I am going to find Hualuo."

A Wudao: "The court is full of the prime minister's people, and many people who participated in the scientific examination have also become the prime minister's disciples. I don't have a single person in the court who can do my best."

Liu Shui said: "I have no one to recommend to you."

A Wu shook his head, "I am a leader with no merit, and it is difficult for ordinary people who recommend me to gain a foothold if they don't have half the effort."

Liu Shui didn't want to guess any more, and said, "How are you doing?"

Abu stared at him.

Liu Shui said: "You talk and I listen."

A Wu pointed at him and said, "You, go to the scientific examination."

Liu Shui was surprised, "Why?"

"In this way, your position as a high-ranking official will be able to stand in front of the people in the world, and no one will be able to gossip in the court."

The water is silent.

A Wudao: "I know you have no intention of being an official. I promise you that when the situation in the court and China is settled, I will let you go to the ends of the earth, and I don't need to fetter you with court affairs."

Liu Shui sighed and said, "What result do you want?"

A Wu's eyes sparkled, and he said, "You don't need to be too tall, just touch the flowers."

Liu Shui nodded, and the old god said: "Talk the flowers, it's a good fortune to go and find out where my flowers are."

After the palace test, the top three come out.The champion is Xie Shouyu, a young jade tree from the Xie family, the second place is Nie Yuan, the prime minister's protégé, and Tanhua is Gao Yi, who wears a white jade mask to cover half of his face.

It's a pity that Xiao Yushu of the Xie family just won the first prize, and before he had time to wear flowers and parade through the streets to see the beautiful scenery of Shangjin City, he went home to attend the funeral and observe his filial piety.

The flowing white jade mask covered half of his face, and he sat on the tall horse and said straightly: "What a pity! What a pity! It turns out that there will be ten miles of spring breeze in the street, and the girls have thrown so many flowers, and the little jade tree has missed it."

King Hong Luo followed him through the streets as if he had won the list. Hearing what he said, he said: "If you get a cheap one, you still behave well. If the little jade tree comes out, how can you still have half a day of scenery like you, just you who still hold the white jade and half cover your face?" , has long been thrown out of the sky."

He looked at the No. [-] in front of him, whispered to Liu Shui's ear, and said, "It's also because the No. [-] was born too hurtful. You got a big deal, Mr. Gao."

Liu Shui said in his heart, King Hong Luo has washed his mouth today, and he knows how to be good-mouthed, and he knows how to lower his voice to bury people.

Hong Luo Dynasty watched the spring breeze and the girl throwing flowers on both sides shouted: "Don't be partial! Nie Yuan! Nie Yuan!"

Liu Shui saw that the back and back of the No. [-] in front of him were stiff, and he gave King Hong Luo a sideways look. Sure enough, how could this person know how to restrain himself.

King Hong Luo was triumphant, and said louder, "Don't throw flowers around! It's evil fate! It's all evil fate!"

The girls are used to seeing him, and they are not afraid of him being angry with Hades on the big day, so they just smiled and said: "Little general, what a bad fate! We just threw a few more flowers to Yumian Tanhualang, there is nothing wishful thinking , where did the theory of evil fate come from?"

King Hong Luo said: "Well said, there is no such thing as Nie Yuanzhi! Come here! Give me all rewards!"

The girls laughed even more happily, "Little General, there is a good match!"

King Hong Luo took Liu Shui's hand and said: "See, this is a good match, Mr. Gao is!"

The girls in Spring Breeze Ten Miles had never seen anything before, and they all joked, "It's strange that the little general follows so closely! Could it be that he wants to follow Tanhualang in?"

King Hong Luo said casually: "Why not, I want to marry him!"

Incredible!Incredible!The newly admitted Yumian Tanhualang wants to marry the young general of the Hong family.

There was an uproar all over the street, regardless of whether it was true or false, and whether it was intentional or not, the words spread throughout the streets and alleys of Shangjin City, and the inner courtyard of the imperial palace.

The emperor was furious, and the memorials were scattered all over the room, "I finally begged Liu Shui to pass the exam, and I was tarnished by King Hongluo like this!"

An imperial decree went down to the General's Mansion, reprimanding the Hong family for being ineffective in raising their sons, King Hongluo lost his morals, dishonored Tanhua's reputation, dismissed him from the post of General, closed his doors to contemplate his mistakes, and was not allowed to leave the General's Mansion for three months.

A happy event where new imperial examiners paraded through the streets ended in a farce.

Liu Shui said: "He's just playing around, why bother to get angry with him."

The emperor said: "Even if I don't punish him today, the memorial will impeach the General's Mansion tomorrow. He gave Nie Yuan a bad look in front of the entire Xiajin City today, and the Prime Minister's Mansion will not turn a blind eye to him."

Liu Shui looked at him for a while, then smiled, and ignored the matter.

King Hong Luo was dealt with by General Hong using family law. After three months of contemplating behind closed doors, Liu Shui spent three months fighting with the Confucians in court.

Three months later, the situation in the court had stabilized, and Liu Shui said, "Take off that official hat for me, I'm going to wander the world."

The emperor said: "Master Gao, who is not afraid of the powerful and pleading for the people, took off his official hat in three months. You let the people of the world poke my spine. You can go if you want, a hat can still hinder you."

Liu Shui took off the mask and said: "Since that's the case, I'll take this mask away, maybe I can use it to scare those corrupt officials somewhere, and act like a tiger."

The emperor said: "I can't ask for it. Remember to come back to see me from time to time."

Liu Shui went behind the screen to take off his official uniform, and changed into Xiaocangshan's plain white clothes, "I went back to Xiaocangshan to see Master, and I will leave after I bid farewell to Master. If you have anything to do, send someone to me and leave a signal for me." Just know."

The emperor looked at his back and said, "Liu Shui, you are finally going to fight the sword."

Liu Shuitou waved his hand without looking back, "As I wish, what can I ask for in this life."
