Seventh Pagoda

In the third year of Heqing, half of the pearl and jade business in the world was handled by the Linglong Pavilion of the Ruan family.

The Ruan family gave the name "Linglong" to whoever was identified as the heir to the family business. It was a name, more like a title, representing the identity of the Ruan family.

This generation of Ruan family has three sons.

The eldest son, Ruan Shanyao, was forced by his father to take the imperial examination, and came back with a top score easily, but he didn't know which thread in his mind was wrong, and ran to the backcountry in Babao County As the magistrate of the county, even ten cows could not be pulled back.

The little son Ruan Tuanjin, the devil king who is indiscriminate and troublesome, is afraid that the world will not be chaotic. If he doesn't poke something in a day and cause trouble, he will feel uncomfortable all over his body.

During the time of the first emperor, four princes with different surnames were enshrined, Prince An Zhong Shiji, Prince Ding Feng Xishan, Prince Ping Xiao Sa, and Prince Lin Yuanxiu.

Although the four princes handed over their military power early in order to support the new emperor, and their attitudes are more lazy than the other, none of them are easy to get along with.

Seeing that his son can't control himself, and he is not allowed to learn a lesson and have a long memory, he really doesn't know how high the sky is and how thick the ground is!

Having made up his mind to ignore him and let him fend for himself, the father had no choice but to put his mind on the second son, named him "Linglong" and taught him carefully.

Two of the three sons refused to obey, and only the last baby pimple was left. His father loved him so much in his heart and eyes, and he was afraid that the whole Linglong Pavilion would not hurt him enough, so he found a peerless master to be close to him. Body guard, this guard's name is Feng Xing.

On the day when Feng Xing first arrived at Linglong Pavilion, Ruan Linglong was only eleven or twelve years old, with pink make-up and jade carvings, small stature, fair skin, sweet smile, two small dimples on her cheeks, pricked into her mouth. Feng Xing called him "Brother Xing" in his arms.

Feng Xingda has been practicing martial arts since he was born. He has outstanding martial arts skills and extraordinary bearing. He is exactly the type of person Ruan Linglong admires, or in other words, he is the kind of person Ruan Linglong wants to be in his dreams. He is powerful, heroic, and imposing.

Feng Xing was fascinated by him, there was a small, soft lump in his arms, even if he exerted even the slightest bit of strength, he was afraid of breaking him, he didn't brush or hug him for a while, he just held him in his arms inside.

Ruan Linglong grinned, and climbed up the pole, hugged Feng Xing's neck tightly, rode on Feng Xing's shoulders, and overlooked the high scenery.

This climbing became addictive, anyway, he didn't want to walk on the ground anymore, he just leaned on Feng Xing's body and refused to get off, slept in Feng Xing's arms, walked on Feng Xing's shoulders.

With such a piece of dog skin plaster, Feng Xing didn't feel annoyed, for such a clever little doll, to be honest, no one could be cruel enough to annoy him.

Feng Xing is used to carelessness, but he treats this little boy with all his heart, he is like a little sugar man, holding it in his hand for fear of falling, holding it in his mouth for fear of melting, fearing that he will hurt even the slightest bit.

At the age of 15, Ruan Linglong looks more and more beautiful, the corners of her eyes and brows are full of flair, every time she raises her eyes and frowns, it makes people startled for no reason, but her temper has deteriorated greatly, and the older she gets, the worse her temper becomes .

When he was young, he was coaxed by his father to stay in Linglong Pavilion. Now that he has grown up, when he thinks that his elder brother and third younger brother are free and easy outside, but he wants to live in Linglong Pavilion guarding a pile of gems, Ruan Linglong is called a Aggrieved!

He was born with rosy lips and a powdery face, and he even took such a feminine name, and even bore his own surname. Ruan Linglong, Ruan Linglong, has no masculinity at all!

What's even more hateful is that there is Feng Xing who always treats himself like a girl doll and agrees... The more I think about it, the more irritable I become, and the more I get angrier, the more I want to torment Feng Xing. I have long refused to call Feng Xing "Brother Xing" , always calling him "Feng Xing" in a vicious voice, like calling a cat or a dog.

Ruan Linglong tossed Feng Xing back and forth, but he didn't take it to heart. Ruan Linglong had nowhere to vent her anger, thinking about it, she was no better than her elder brother when it came to reading and practicing martial arts, and she was no better than her third brother when it came to making troubles. What can he do to show himself? What about manliness?

In the end, the way he came up with was to walk the birds, listen to the music and visit the kilns...

Lan Zhishao lost her parents and suffered from hunger, so she was taken in by her master Xia Changsong in Lihuatang.

At that time, apprenticeship and apprenticeship were all signed death contracts, and they were called masters and apprentices to the outside world, but in fact they were more like masters and servants. It was common for masters to punish apprentices without reason. .

Xia Changsong is very kind-hearted, not only has he never regarded Lan Rong as a servant, but he even sings, plays, fights, and has his own stunts. He can't keep the slightest bit of selfishness.

It is also thanks to Lan Zhi's good roots, soft waist and limbs, stunning appearance, quick learning and enlightenment.

At the age of 12, Xia Changsong gave him the name "Lan Yachu" and officially appeared on the stage. He sang "Si Fan" and stood on the stage alone. Heads rang across half the sky.

At that time, Ruan Linglong, in order to show her masculinity, imitated those elders, and spent every day in Lihuatang. It happened that on this day, she was seduced by Lan Wei's singing, so she came to praise him when she was free. field.

It was extremely easy for Ruan Linglong to praise whomever she wanted. Gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin were thrown out like flowing water, and it could take three years.

In the beginning, Feng Xing let him make trouble, it was just listening to the music, the young master loved it, so he just listened to it by himself.

Gradually, the young master was verbal every day, but he couldn't forget for a moment, "Lan Yachu" on the left and "Lihuatang" on the right, Feng Xing felt a little uncomfortable.

Ruan Linglong didn't understand why he was uncomfortable, but seeing that Feng Xing was uncomfortable, Ruan Linglong felt more comfortable, and ran to Lihuatang more and more diligently.

Once Feng Xing was so angry that he lifted his foot and kicked over a counter, and the glazed agate smashed to the ground. The movement was a bit loud, which alarmed the waiter, and he ran to invite him while yelling "It's terrific, terrific!" owner.

His father had heard for a long time that Ruan Linglong had reached the age of knowing Fengyue, what kind of dignity would it be to hang around in Lihuatang all day long? Ruan Linglong was not allowed to go out.

Feng Xing felt relieved, and let Ruan Linglong make noises in different ways every day, and he was not allowed to take a step out of the house anyway.

Three months later, Ruan Linglong finally got rid of the confinement, and went to Lihuatang again, but the building was empty and desolate.

Ruan Linglong made many inquiries and found out that Xia Changsong fell from the stage a month ago and broke his waist, and also because of his advanced age, he couldn't hold on.

Xia Changsong's bones were not yet cold, but Lan Rong's senior brother stole Lan Rong's deed of sale and sold Lan Rong into Lan Yi Pavilion. Now Lihua Hall has been sold, and his senior brother has also packed up and disappeared.

Ruan Linglong hurried to Lanyi Pavilion, determined to redeem him and bring him back to Linglong Pavilion. His father was so angry that he vomited blood and threatened to sever the relationship between father and son.

In the end, Feng Xing intervened and she stayed in Lanyi Pavilion. If Ruan Linglong was worried, she just came to Lanyi Pavilion every day to look after her.

His father had no choice but to set up a pleading with him, he could keep it or watch it, and Linglong Pavilion's business must not be delayed at all.

Ruan Linglong snorted coldly in agreement.

Ruan Linglong came to Lanyi Pavilion when she was free. Previously in Lihua Hall, because of her appearance on stage, she couldn't recognize Lan Rong's true face. Now that she is in Lanyi Pavilion, Lan Rong still wears a mask on her face. After being with him for two years, Lan Rong refused to show his face for Ruan Linglong to take a look at.

With Ruan Linglong taking care of her, Lan Rong didn't suffer any disadvantages, but she didn't live with Ruan Linglong's life. Lan Rong still had to learn the songs and dances that Lanyi Pavilion should teach.

Relying on the good foundation of Lihuatang, Lan Rong is a master of both singing and dancing, and has won the title of "Mr. Jin Lan". The whole Lanyi Pavilion knows that Lan Rong is the person that the Ruan family master likes, and no one will come to provoke him. Until Yu Zhenxi came out halfway.

That day, Lan Zhi sang "Cui Luo Han".

It is said that there was a fairy grass growing in the valley, which was free and easy. A scholar strayed into the valley and lost his way. The sun was high at noon, and the scholar almost died of thirst at the bottom of the valley.

The fairy grass appeared in a human form and fed him Qinglu, but was about to leave when the scholar grabbed his sleeves and asked how to repay the grace of life. Wandering at the mouth of the valley every day.

The celestial grass inevitably moved Fanxin, and once again assumed a human form, pointing to the grass to explain the cause, the scholar carefully pulled the celestial grass by its roots and transplanted it into a pot.

At first, I took good care of it every day, and the fairy grass lived happily. As time went by, without the nourishment of the spiritual energy of the valley, and refused to absorb the vitality of the scholar to maintain it, the fairy grass could no longer conjure up a human form.

In the vast world, the world of mortals is rolling, and people's hearts are the most impermanent. Scholars gradually forget the fairy grass. On the last day, the fairy grass cut off its roots, and a wisp of soul floated to the valley, where it disappeared in ashes.

"Most good things are not firm, and colorful clouds are easy to disperse and glass is brittle. Love is deeply rooted, and light throws people away..."

After singing the last line, Lan Wai closes the fan, sends his right hand forward, draws half a circle inward, keeps up with his left hand, presses down his fingers, flowing clouds and flowing water, with a graceful posture. It is a movement that Lihuatang has been proficient in the past, but it is not intentional at this moment.

Afterwards, Yu Zhenxi often lamented that he had never seen someone who could hold a fan so beautifully in his life.

Yu Zhenxi strode into Lan Yi Pavilion, sat down carelessly, and stared at Lan Rong carelessly, how stupid and stupid he looked.Ruan Linglong was very upset, the teacup knocked on the table with a crisp sound.

The head mother of Lanyi Pavilion is called Xianlu, she saw something wrong early in the morning, she smiled like a flower, twisted her waist, and came over: "Hey, today's tea is not good, I made Mr. Ruan angry , the slave’s crime.”

Then he yelled at the people around him: "Idiot, what are you doing in a daze, hurry up and get a new tea, I want the jade inlaid with gold that I only got this month." He then greeted Yu Zhenxi: "My lord, you have a very good face! , but are there any beauties that catch your eye?"

Yu Zhenxi still stared at Lan Zhi, seeing Lan Zhi went up the stairs, the corners of his clothes could no longer be seen, finally turned his head, and said to Xianlu: "If there is, what should I do?"

Seeing this scene, Xianlu had nine points in her heart, and smiled happily at Yu Zhenxi.

"This is easy, easy to handle. Although our Lanyi Pavilion is a small place, we also have our own rules. Mr. Jinlan is the signboard of our Lanyi Pavilion. On weekdays, Jinbai talks with each other, and Jinqianliang sings with each other." Qu, I don't know what master's plan is?"

Ruan Linglong laughed: "From now on, Mr. Lan Yachu has made a decision. You send people to Linglong Pavilion to collect things every day. I will tell you any day when I lose interest."

Xian Lu was happy to raise Lan Rong's worth, fearing that no one would come to snatch it, she laughed so hard that she couldn't close her mouth and agreed.

Yu Zhenxi turned around and called Meng Shuxing, before Meng Shuxing could speak, he blocked his words: "General, all the payments from the south should be put into the treasury."

Yu Zhenxi spoke again: "Then—"

Meng Shuxing hurriedly said: "My family doesn't have one either, one day! 100 taels! Gold!"

Yu Zhenxi did not give up: "Then—"

Meng Shuxing supported his forehead: "General, that is the Ruan family, a small Linglong Pavilion, which handles [-]% of the jewelry business..."

Yu Zhenxi finally kept silent, fighting for financial resources with the Ruan family was not a good idea.So, after nightfall, Yu Zhenxi sneaked into Lan Rong's room...

After bathing and changing, Lan Rong took off her mask, her hair was draped over her shoulders, and her robe was loose.

The wind blows in, the candlelight flickers, Lan Wei gets up and closes the window, turns around and walks to the table, leans over to put out the candle and goes to bed, when she hears "Sure enough", Lan Wei turns her head and sees Yu Zhenxi sitting in front of the table looking at herself, There is a smile on his face.

Lan Rong remained calm and undisturbed: "So what?"

Yu Zhenxi said with a smile: "I saw you close your fan during the day, you are very beautiful, and seeing you now, it is even more beautiful."

Lan Rong couldn't help laughing: "See you, I see you, son, come back."

Yu Zhenxi seemed to have heard something funny: "Young master? No one has ever called me that before...you call me that, it sounds good."

Lan Rong didn't bother with him: "Come back, I'm going to sleep."

Yu Zhenxi salivated: "Since that's the case, how about sleeping?"

Lan Rong frowned, and Yu Zhenxi felt his heart wrinkle when he frowned: "Okay, okay, don't sleep, don't sleep, have a drink with me, run hard, ask for a drink You shouldn't compare yourself to me."

There was a smile on Lan Rong's face: "Okay."

He quickly poured wine for Yu Zhenxi, resting his arms on the table, tilting his head, resting his chin and watching Yu Zhenxi drink.

Yu Zhenxi stared blankly at Lan Rong for a while, then fixedly looked at the wine glass, looked up at Lan Rong with a smile: "Since you poured the wine for me, even the poisoned wine can be drunk happily."

Raising his glass and drinking it down, Lan Rong laughed heartily and counted until Yu Zhenxi fell down.

But Yu Zhenxi looked at Lan Rong's triumphant little face, and suddenly raised his hand to pull Lan Zhi to his eyes, pinched Lan Zhi's jaw, kissed Lan Zhi's lips, and poured the wine over.

Yu Zhenxi kissed domineeringly, Lan Rong couldn't resist, and choked all the wine down his throat.

Yu Zhenxi let go of Lan Zhi, and seeing Lan Zhi's face blushing from coughing, he licked his lips: "It really is good wine."

Lan Zhi was so angry that he pulled out the long sword under the table, saw Yu Zhenxi and stabbed, Yu Zhenxi seemed to have expected this, and blocked it leisurely.

Lan Rong became more and more angry, and finally lost to the drug, and was held in Yu Zhenxi's arms. Before Lan Rong passed out completely, he heard Yu Zhenxi stroking his hair and saying: "Sure enough..."

Sure enough what?

I didn't have time to think about it, the sharp pain came from all the limbs, it was not the dense soreness of ants gnawing, nor the dull pain of the boulder smashing, but the pain of tearing the soul from the body alive, the medicine of Nanchuangcao effect occurred.

Lan Rong curled up on the couch, writhing in pain like a shrimp in a frying pan, with no place to stay, a vast expanse of pain and pain.

He remembered when his master took him to practice kung fu when he was a child, half of his body almost collapsed, the pain made his muscles and bones seem to be broken, and it was not as good as it is now. , what are you singing?

Lan Rong debated again and again, "...time passes by and makes people grow old, and they let down the youthful and beautiful young man... how can he achieve a good marriage, and die in front of the palace of the king of hell..."

what is this……

"How can a good marriage be achieved... He will die in front of the palace of the king of hell..."

Come to think of it, it was "Thinking of the Fantastic", which was the "Thinking of the Fantastic" that Lan Rong had studied with Xia Changsong for seven years.

After the master passed away, Lan Rong never sang "Si Fan" again, who is singing now...

Lan Rong's eyes opened again and again, as if caught in a nightmare, he couldn't open them a bit, his whole body was in pain and pain, but his spiritual consciousness remained clear all the time, and following the singing of someone who didn't know, he tied it like a thin spider's silk. Then, thinly floating in the vague mid-air.
