Thousands of Miles

Chapter 3 Love|Desire

"Ximeng?" Li Shishi was startled, tears flickering in his eyes reflecting the flickering candlelight, and said in a low voice, "This...is a sea of ​​suffering..."

"Sister?" Ximeng looked at her sister seriously with a pair of clear eyes, and asked, "Is sister suffering here? Let's leave here together?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Li Shishi wiped away the tears on her cheeks, and said with a smile, "Okay, you stay here for now, don't say anything when you hear anything, my sister will take care of it."

"Sister!" Ximeng pounced to the bed and grabbed Li Shishi's colorful silk skirt, "Sister, sister is not happy here, Ximeng will definitely help sister get out of here!"

Li Shishi turned her head and smiled lightly, nodded: "Okay, sister, wait for Ximeng to help her get out of here. My sister is waiting..."

Ximeng tightly grasped the hem of the silk skirt in his hand, and his heart was in a mess. For a while, his mind was full of the laughter of himself and his sister in the backyard of their home bathed in the sun, for a while, it was his sister’s tears reflected by the candlelight tonight, for a while, It's my dealings with my stepfather and mother for three years... I can't protect myself, so how can I protect my sister?Ximeng opened his hand unconsciously, bowed his head and was speechless.

"My sister has to go to make up. There will be a distinguished guest coming. You must not make a sound until my sister asks you, let alone come out to be seen." Li Shishi said, "Mama Li is watching closely tonight. There will be many people on the street tomorrow. Miscellaneous eyes, sister will find a way to send you out."

"Hmm..." I just said that I wanted to help my sister out, but it became my sister to help me out. Ximeng nodded, thinking that he must work hard after going out, and save his sister from the sea of ​​suffering as soon as possible.

Li Shishi put down the bed curtain, sat down in front of the dressing table, and asked Cui Er to wait on Bo Shi Fendai. She only tied up a simple Japanese bun, and inserted a pair of purple jade hairpins at random, half-exposing her fragrant shoulders. Leaning on the couch, waiting for the guests to arrive.

The beauty under the lamp has a face like peaches and plums, skin like creamy fat, eyebrows like distant mountains, breath like orchids, graceful and soft, looking forward and looking graceful.Born between fireworks and willow alleys, there are infinite wind and moon between his eyebrows and eyes; on top of palaces and temples, his bearing is enough to be the best.

If it is said that such a beautiful woman is unparalleled in the world, when one looks closely, her eyebrows and eyes are [-]% similar to Ximengsheng, but she has been a woman all her life and a man all her life.

Remembering her sister's instructions, Ximeng sat alone on the bed, not even daring to move slightly, but looked out of the bed through the light yellow bed curtain.

I saw a vague figure entering the room from the direction outside the door, and the figure of my sister rose from the couch, as if welcoming the visitor.

"Officer Zheng, please sit down." Li Shishi stood up to greet the guest, and poured a cup of tea for the guest who had just entered the door.

The guest was dressed in a white dress embroidered with silver, which was elegant yet luxurious. Nine coiled dragons were carved out of white jade inlaid on the jade belt around his waist.

Although he spends a lot of money like water, he is by no means just an ordinary wealthy businessman.Li Shishi and the people in the courtyard knew it in their hearts, but no one dared to guess randomly.

The guest nodded, sat down at the carved wooden table, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen Shishi for a long time, what kind of skills are you studying?"

"The officials made fun of it. Shishi is not a study." Li Shishi laughed, "Thanks to the officials' careful guidance of the piano art, Shishi was able to get a little bit of knowledge in the piano art. Although she has practiced for a few days recently, it is still difficult The hall is elegant, and I dare not show off in front of officials..."

"Hey, what are you talking about?" Zheng Guan said humanely, "Zhen... When Zheng saw Miss Shishi for the first time, she felt that she was very talented and extremely intelligent, and she also had a deep understanding of piano art, but she lacked someone to figure out the mystery. With a girl's aptitude, a little practice is sure to make a breakthrough in the piano art, why don't you show me a thing or two for Zheng?"

"Then, Shishi is making a fool of herself." After all, it is taboo for people in the world to push back and flick guests. Li Shishi evaded a few words, seeing that she still insisted, she had to get up to get the piano.

Li Shishi got up, and Fang wanted to go to the wall to take down the Yaoqin, but the official Zheng stood up suddenly and said: "Wait a minute, Shishi!"

"Huh?" Li Shishi looked at him suspiciously.

"Bring it in." Zheng Guanren straightened his expression and ordered outside the door.

Two servants carried an antique Yaoqin into the room, put it on the piano table, and walked out the door without even daring to lift their heads.

"A small gift is not a respect." Zheng Guanren opened the folding fan in his hand and shook it calmly, and said with a smile, "The name of this piano is Jiuxiao Huanpei. It was played by Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. It has been more than three hundred years old. Zheng is quite fond of the piano when he reads poems. I love it, and I specially ordered people to search for it."

"Jiuxiao Huanpei..." Li Shishi looked at the qin on the table in surprise, and said softly after a while: "How can such a precious thing..."

"The most precious thing in the world is true love." Zheng Guanren put away his folding fan, approached Shishi lightly, and whispered softly in her ear, "The true love between me and Shishi is priceless, don't doubt it. The rest is not enough It's expensive."

"Officials..." Li Shishi's ears turned red when she heard this, and she lowered her head shyly, "Shishi has always regarded officials as confidantes. Shishi was born in a brothel, how many people treat each other sincerely like officials, Shishi is very grateful..."

Zheng Guanren turned the body of the piano over, and engraved four big characters on the back of the piano: Jiuxiao Huanpei.Next to it is a small poem written by Su Zizhan, a great talent in the dynasty, in lower case: "The misty spring breeze is soft, and the ringing sound is ringing. The new Yan language is hanging down the curtain, and the old dragon singing in the sea."

Zheng Guanren shook the folding fan, and the unfolded folding fan seemed to isolate the two people who share the same mind from the outside world that has nothing to do with love and love. language'?"

Li Shishi smiled shyly and nodded: "Officials, please sit down and enjoy tea, the little girl is making a fool of herself."

"Okay!" Zheng Guanren closed the folding fan, sat on a chair beside him and listened carefully.

Li Shishi's vermilion lips opened slightly, and she sang to the sound of the piano: "Nongxu gazing at the eyes and covering his face lightly, sighing frequently at the moonless sleepless. Tenderness is like water, you don't know it, your heart is chaotic, cocooned, soft words and slang songs are not used to it. I hate the west wind forever." Sorrowful fan, brow locks are easy to relax and feelings are hard to break. There is no way to get rid of the sorrow, the green candle is dark, and I look at the window, and the flowers flew all over the courtyard last night."

While Zheng Guanren was listening, the folding fan was beating lightly in the palm of his hand, but his expression became more and more ugly.

After Li Shishi sang a song, Zheng Guanren frowning, stood up and asked: "Tonight is a beautiful day, why does Shishi make such sad words?"

"Official Zheng..." Fengyuechang sells laughter, how can it bring guests into sadness?Only then did Li Shishi realize that she had revealed her true feelings just now, and her worries were hard to get over, which actually made Zheng officials feel worried, so she quickly laughed, "Shi Shi just sang indiscriminately, and she actually annoyed the officials, she should be punished."

Li Shishi smiled and poured a glass of wine on the table, and drank it all in one gulp: "Shishi punished herself with three glasses of wine, and sang a new song for the officials."

Seeing Shishi's familiar way of receiving guests, Zheng Guanren felt a hint of heartache in his eyes, stepped forward and snatched the wine glass from her hand, and said seriously: "Shishi, Zheng is not a frivolous person. Since we have the same heart, we are attracted to each other. Boss, what can't you say? If you have any worries in your heart, you can tell me... Zheng, Zheng will try his best to find a way to help you."

"Officer, what are you talking about?" Li Shishi smiled, "It is a great honor to meet you Shishi, and it is a joy to know Shishi with you. How can there be any reason to be sad? This is an ordinary boudoir song. It's a bit sad, it's Shishi's sin to disturb the officials."

"Haha, that's how it is." Although Zheng Guanren didn't believe it, but seeing that she was concealing it on purpose, he nodded and said with a smile, "Poetry, poetry and singing are indeed a masterpiece. I was too worried about being able to be so emotional and touching."

"Officials, when this beautiful day is beautiful, Shishi respects the officials." Li Shishi poured a glass of wine on the table and handed it to Zheng Guanren.

"Okay." Zheng Guanren took the silver cup and drank it down, put the wine cup back on the table, only to see Li Shishi's cheeks were flushed, her eyes blurred, and hurriedly asked: "What's wrong with you, Shishi?"

"Guan Zheng, I..." After drinking a glass of wine just now, Li Shishi suddenly felt hot and unbearable. At first, she thought it was just too much alcohol and didn't care, but now this inexplicable feeling intensified, making her a little dazed, "Guan Zheng ,I want……"

"What do you want?" Zheng Guanren was slightly taken aback seeing Shishi's abnormal behavior, and suddenly felt something was wrong, "Shishi, could there be medicine in this wine?"

"Hmm..." Li Shishi's consciousness was half-drowsy, but she just nodded subconsciously, "It must be mom...um...it must be mom..."

Under the action of the medicine, Zheng Guanren got down| straightened up, suddenly felt like|burning|burning, couldn't help but put his arms around Li Shishi's soft body, and pushed her down on the couch: "Shishi..."

"Hmm..." Li Shishi put her arms around Zheng Guanren's neck, gently stroking the other's delicate skin with her soft fingertips, "Guanren...I want..."

"Yes." Zheng Guanren agreed, "呵啦——" tore off Shishi's soft clothes.

Sitting on the bed, Xi Meng was stunned. Regardless of her sister's previous instructions, she pulled open the window curtain, rushed forward and grabbed the skirt of Zheng Guanren, and pushed him away heavily.

Under the effect of the medicine, Zheng Guanren was already drowsy, but when Xi Meng pushed him suddenly, he staggered and fell to the ground, breaking out in a cold sweat, and could not help but wake up a bit.

Li Shishi lay on the couch tossing and turning, groaning softly in her throat, and tightly grasped Ximeng's hand: "Well... Ximeng...don't worry about me... ah..."

"Sister, what's the matter with you?" Ximeng has never seen her sister like this before, quickly pulled the brocade quilt to cover her naked upper body, went to the table and poured a glass of cold water for her, and handed it to her softly Said, "Sister, drink some water."

Li Shishi took the water glass and drank it down, and smashed it on the ground with a bang, still feeling thirsty, she pushed Ximeng away: "Don't come here, don't come here... ah..."

"elder sister!"

Zheng Guanren stared straight at Ximeng, and got up from the ground in a daze.Suddenly, his pupils shrank, as if he remembered something, he rushed forward and hugged Ximeng.

"Ah? What are you doing? Let me go!"

Ximeng struggled and stretched out his hand to push away the official Zheng, but Guanren Zheng picked up Ximeng like a demon, kicked open the door, and rushed out.

"Let go of me, let go..."

No matter how much Ximeng struggled and kicked in his arms, Zheng Guanren didn't respond, and in front of countless prostitutes, servants and princes and grandchildren, he swaggered out of the gate of the brothel with Ximeng in his arms.

"Uh..." Eunuch Zhang who was waiting at the door broke into a cold sweat, quickly took out 1000 taels of silver, turned around and laughed with Mama Li, "Our family officials love freedom like a gust of wind, here is 1000 taels of silver, mom You can use it."

"Hehehe, where is it." Li's mother took the money and put it in her arms, her lips from ear to ear, "Mr. Zheng has a good eye. We just bought that little girl today. She is very beautiful, and Never used it once."

"Hey, that's right." Eunuch Zhang and Mama Li smiled, and just wanted to say goodbye, when they heard "get up the sedan chair" outside the door, they didn't have time to say anything, and hurriedly chased them out.

Mother Li smiled and went to Li Shishi's room with the money in her pocket, only to see her tossing and turning on the couch in pain, still groaning.Obviously, he didn't get the favor of Zheng Daguan tonight, and the medicine's effect was completely unresolved.

"This Zheng official is really strange. He likes to come to see our family's Shishi so much that he hasn't touched her for two years. Today, my mother has done this for him, but she still left." Li's mother casually shook her handkerchief. , said with a smile, "Didn't Mr. Cai from Taishi Cai's family outside ask to see Shishi? Tonight is Shishi's first time, and he is really cheap."
