Minister

101【Seven years of Jiankang】

Wuliuyi forgot to speak for a while, just stared blankly at the person in front of him.Wei Chi made a gesture, Wuliu came back to his senses, and quickly pointed to the north: "My lord, go this way." As he spoke, he attracted the way.

Wei Chi took two steps, turned his head secretly, but saw the eunuch followed inexplicably, he felt a little strange, thinking that the inner court of the palace had never heard of a father-in-law serving with an adult.Thinking about it, I felt a little blushing, but I couldn't say anything, so I had to go in and come out quickly.

Walking out the door, Wei Chi was heaving a sigh of relief, when suddenly a man raised his hand to take the handkerchief.Wei Chi was taken aback for a moment, only to realize that the little eunuch was still waiting.Wei Chi was quite embarrassed, and handed him the handkerchief: "What's the matter with this father-in-law?"

He hesitated five or six times, and finally said bravely: "Returning to my lord, today all the nobles are flying kites, and one of them, hehe, fell into a tree. I asked my servants to pick it up, but unfortunately I couldn't reach it...My lord can... ?”

Wei Chi looked the little eunuch up and down, and felt that a person with such a face did not look like the lowest eunuch.And which eunuch would dare to order an official to pick a kite?In line with the strangeness just now, I was already suspicious, but I became more curious when I didn't know it. I just thought it was some noble son's ghost idea, but I don't know who is the person who can order the eunuch?

Five or six people saw that the flower-like person had no objection, and was secretly delighted, so he hurriedly said, "It's in the pavilion garden on the west side."

Wei Chi sneered in his heart, what kind of tricks are these north, south, west, east...?

While Wuliu led Wei Chi away, he secretly kept an eye out for anyone else.It was the banquet at this moment, the guests were still in the hall, and there were not even half a person in the courtyard, the two of them went straight to the west courtyard without saying a word.As he walked further and further into the inner palace, Wei Chi finally began to feel a little apprehensive—these noble children don't know the heights of the sky and the earth, if they really want to make themselves bump into the female guests, it's really inevitable.

Wei Chi was about to retreat, but Wuliu yanked Wei Chi's hand, opened a side courtyard door with the other hand, and pushed back.Wei Chi had been prepared for a long time, and suddenly broke free from the little eunuch's hand: "What?"

Wuliu didn't expect that this flower-like person, who was still gentle and elegant just now, suddenly changed his face, and flinched for a moment in fright.

"how?"

Wei Chi was about to retreat when he heard a female voice behind him. If it was a real man, he would have been scared out of his wits at this moment.It's a pity that Wei Chi is not, she heard the voice behind her unhurriedly, so it can be seen that this is the 'culprit', looking back unhurriedly.I saw a beautiful palace maid standing between the grass and trees, wearing fine red tulle clothes, looking at me with a smile.Wei Chi noticed that the little eunuch next to him was about to slip away, so he quickly grabbed him: "Where's the kite you mentioned?"

Where is there any kite?Wuliu couldn't break free, with a sad face.

Wei Chi grabbed the little eunuch's hand, raised his clothes and stepped over the threshold: "This is it?"

Wei Chi pointed to a tree and asked, Wuliu looked at the bare branches and shook his head.Wei Chi pulled him to another place: "Is it here?"

After walking several times in a row, Wuliu had no choice but to shake his head and say no. He was anxious and couldn't get away from running.Tangtang originally thought that he was just a man in this world, how could he not be soft-hearted when he saw a beauty?This is fine, obviously he got angry, not only ignored himself, but also deliberately let out his anger to put on airs.

"you!"

Wei Chi heard that the beauty behind him was angry, so he smiled and let Wuliu go.Wuliu quickly retracted his hands, thinking that this person looks soft and beautiful like a woman, but his hands are so strong!

Wuliu ran away, Tangtang yelled angrily: "What are you running?! Leave the door behind!"

Wu Liuyi shrank his neck, staggered, quickly pushed the door open again, and ran out of the yard for a few steps, worried that something would happen if the lord was not up to the mark.Wouldn't it be his own fault then?After being afraid for a while, I decided to hide behind the door and squat down.

"Am I going to eat you?" Tangtang asked angrily.

Wei Chi suddenly became playful, and took a few steps forward: "Girl, aren't you afraid that I'll eat you?"

Tangtang hurriedly took a few steps back, she didn't expect this person to say such words with a straight face, she couldn't help chopping her feet fiercely a few times.

Wei Chi is well aware of the benefits of going to the end: "It's a courtesy to a man and a woman if they don't know each other. Forgive me for leaving."

"Hello!" Tangtang was angry and anxious.

Wei Chi had no choice but to stop: "..."

"Far is not near but it is far; near but near is actually near; toward toward toward toward toward toward but toward toward toward; toward toward toward toward toward evening is not necessarily impossible!"

Tangtang saw that this person finally turned around.

"what?"

"Wei can't do it! Don't leave!" Tangtang plucked up the courage to stuff the Sipa she had prepared long ago into her arms, and whispered: "...you wait!"

Wei Chi was blocked by this, so he went in without knowing it, and was about to ask, but the palace maid had already run out of the garden.Wei Chi held the silk handkerchief in his hand, and finally understood—where is the Hongmen Banquet?This is The Story of the West Chamber.

Although Wei Chi had a thick skin, he was only limited to quarreling and making troubles. After realizing this, he blushed immediately.Sipa really weighs a thousand catties in my hand, and I mustered up the courage to open it up to read, only to see a poem on the handkerchief:

"Gongshangjiao can be followed by laws and regulations, and spring and summer can be replaced by the four seasons. Isn't it changing in the dark?You can't meet the water and fold the bridge. '

Wei Chi read it again and thought it wasn't a love poem. After reading it again, he felt it was still not a love poem. After a while, he became confused again.

"That idiot," Chen Yan couldn't help laughing and said, "Is that Yuxiang's maid?"

Xu Wei closed the curtain raised by Chen Yan: "Master, Long Live, be careful, this corner hall is short, if it is really seen, it will be boring."

Chen Yan said, "It's said that the women's college can't keep it, but it's a pity that Wei Chi is an idiot. How can he understand these romances?"

Xu Wei smiled and said: "Master Wei is not young, how could he not understand?"

Chen Yan shook his head: "He really doesn't understand, that palace maid is also stunning, you can see that he seems to ignore it, could it be that this kid has escaped into Buddhism since he was a child, and has learned the concept of bones?"

Xu Wei couldn't help laughing: "My master, Long Live, is the worst. He doesn't tell jokes about secretly watching my sister, and even makes sarcastic remarks about my brother-in-law."

Chen Xing also laughed and said, "You glib servant girl! It's a pity for that charming 'little matchmaker', isn't it a pity to meet such Zhang Sheng?"

Chen Xing thought for a while, beckoned Xu Wei to come over, and gave some instructions.Xu Wei thought for a moment: "It's not considered impolite, but it's the master, Long Live Lord... really bad!"

Chen Xing kicked him: "Go! Don't you, slave, also laugh nastyly?"

How did Wei Chi know that the oriole was behind?It's not easy to leave or stay at the moment, thinking that I'm younger than before, and I commit some taboos between men and women, but everyone doesn't care.For example, Geng Yunmei joked with herself, and everyone thought it was because the child was ignorant.Now that I'm eighteen, it's not good to have these pretentious things. Although I have no ghosts in my heart, don't let others take advantage of it.Read that poem again—Crossing bridges when encountering water?Yu Yu?Chen Yuxiang?

Wei Chi was taken aback by his own thoughts. Could it be that Chen Jingtai's flying vinegar from years ago was not groundless?But if you look closely at the poem, it doesn't have the meaning of Fengyue, so it's a bit unclear.

Wuliu sneaked into the corner of the door and looked around, and saw the adult holding a silk handkerchief and frowning, feeling a little uneasy in his heart—it was not like this in the play, how could a young boy in his youth encounter such a happy event Are you not happy?

Wuliu was afraid, when he suddenly saw a person coming outside the door—isn't it Xu Wei, the eunuch of Bingbi?

Wuliu was so frightened that he almost screamed, and saw that the big eunuch walked into the side garden unhurriedly, and went straight to the lord.Wuliu thought that Tangtang must have asked the princess to go at this moment, if he bumped into her like this, would it be okay?As soon as Xu Wei entered the courtyard, Wuliu quickly shrank and ran out.

"Master Wei!" Xu Wei saluted.

Wei Chi stood with his back to the door, startled by the sudden voice, quickly put on his handkerchief and turned around: "Xu... Eunuch Xu?"

Xu Wei smiled and said, "It was our family who brought Master Wei back three years ago. I didn't expect that Master Wei would get lost again three years later."

Wei Chi heaved a sigh of relief: "I thought it was some young master's trick, hehe..."

Xu Wei knew that Wei Chi was telling the truth, and thought that Yingying, the matchmaker, was really pitiful for provoking such an idiot.

"Master Wei, to be honest, this courtyard is very remote, but... just a few steps away is the pavilion of the female relatives. Since Mr. Wei is here, why don't you go to the pavilion and play a piano?"

Wei Chi was taken aback: "No way!"

"Yes, yes!" Xu Wei blocked Wei Chi's retreat: "Which one was singing at the banquet, and who was playing it was not a man? There was already a curtain behind it."

"Impossible..." Wei Chi thought that the eunuch must have drunk too much today, and such a bad idea can be imagined.

"Hey!" Xu Weiyi pulled Wei Chi back: "Master Wei, please look!"

Wei Chi looked along his fingers - the garden is very small, one wall is the turret next door, the turret has only two floors, all windows are closed, except for one... the emperor leaned on the flower window, and waved his hands with a smile.

Pain too!

Wei Chi lamented, what kind of young master needs to shout out the eunuchs to make trouble?Just now, I should have thought that it was the emperor who did it!

Wuliu ran so distraught that he bumped into a maidservant.The maid in the palace held the dew in her hand, and splashed it out.The palace servant said angrily: "Bold boy! This is the fragrance of Ruan Shuren, who has just entered the palace!"

Wuliu didn't care whether she was talking about Mrs. Ruan or Mrs. Hard, and walked away with her hands.The palace maid was very angry, and she started to chase after her, but someone beside her had already stopped her: "Why are you chattering when you just entered the palace? That's the fifth father-in-law of Hede Palace!"

The servant girl was startled, and quickly stepped aside.

The maid in brocade clothes was waiting at the side door to serve as a servant, when he suddenly saw Wu Liuyi running over in a mess, he asked with a smile: "My fifth father-in-law, did you go to Yaochi today? How do you smell good?"

Wuliu glanced at him angrily: "I don't have time to talk nonsense with you, where is Sister Tangtang?"

Seeing that his expression changed drastically, the servant didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, so he quickly picked up the curtain to go in, and Tangtang came out when he was young.

Wuliu hurried up and told what happened afterwards.Tangtang was also taken aback, and immediately asked, "What happened next? Did Eunuch Xu say anything?"

Wuliu stomped her feet: "My good sister, did the slaves dare to stay for a while at that time? Hurry up and run back without touching the ground!"

Tangtang walked back and forth twice, but couldn't make up his mind for the time being, so he could only say: "It's useless to talk about it now, you go down and change your clothes and wait for the servant!"

Qingyuan and Yuxin Garden are only separated by a wall, Qingyuan is the outer courtyard, and Yuxin Garden is the inner palace.Every spring, Qingyuan entertains male guests, and Yuxin Garden serves female guests. The two gardens are far apart, and it may take a quarter of an hour, but the main hall is arranged in an interesting way. can see.It can be heard, but it is harmless, and the rules of the previous dynasty will remain.

In order to win the hearts of beauties, the men of Qingyuan naturally wanted to sing and chant poems.Women who are waiting to be married in Yuxin Garden can also set up a topic and send poems and paintings to the kite. Whichever man comes up with a good solution, he can get the kite and fly it.At that time, someone will sort out the manuscript, and it will be clear at a glance who is a talented woman and who is a wit.

Chen Yuxiang is a princess, so the topic he put on was naturally morality and etiquette, and all his thoughts were on the handkerchief.He didn't want to listen to how the men outside the courtyard would deal with him, and secretly waited patiently for Tangtang to come back.In the afternoon, this person ran back in a panic, Yuxiang was both happy and scared at the same time, Tangtang smiled and said: "I was really scared to death just now!"

Yuxiang shook her hand: "I'm going to be scared to death right now!"

Tangtang was helping Yuxiang change her clothes, but she heard the servant reply at the door, saying that she came back on May or Six.Having said that, both of them were taken aback.

"What's the matter?" Tangtang also lost her mind.

Yuxiang thought for a while: "What can I do? Go back and sit down first, lest others get suspicious."

The two had no choice but to change back into their banquet clothes and return to the main hall.

There were a lot of people in the main hall, the young daughters, the new ladies, and the young concubines all wanted to participate. There were many seats crowded in the inner and outer circles, and the maids and maidservants shuttled among them. It was so lively that even the chief No one knows if the person left the position.Yuxiang sat down, pretending to pick up an apricot and gnawing on it, but his heart was beating non-stop.

While dancing vigorously, suddenly the group of male officials playing music stopped, and the eunuch Xu Wei pulled the young man onto the stage.The music officials stepped in without knowing it, and gave way one after another. Eunuch Xu rushed to the audience and waved.Eunuch Xu smiled and pointed at the person in his hand: "This is the Guozijian Jijiu, Mr. Wei... next door."

The girls in the audience coaxed into laughter.

"Master Wei can play the qin very well, so he was caught by our family, all nobles, thank our family!"

The curtain on the stage is a thing to cover the entrance, a thin layer of gauze can't cover anything.Although the girls in the audience were girls who had lived in the boudoir for a long time, but without their parents around, and relying on the large number of people on their own side, they started booing one after another.

Wei Chi blushed so much now, he and Xu Wei gave in and refused to come forward, but although Wei Chi was eloquent, he couldn't bear it, this father-in-law Xu was the one who could tell witty words, and a few jokes made him even more annoying. The whole hall smiled.

Tangtang and Yuxiang looked at each other.

Naturally, Wei Chi is not afraid of women, and even at this moment, he has forgotten about the defense of men and women, tricks and the like, but it is a bit unbearable to be left on the stage like this, and he feels a little flustered for the first time.

Chen Xing hid on the second floor, watching the show cheerfully, when suddenly, an elegant female voice sounded: "My little girl has heard of Master Wei's name for a long time, and she has also learned musical instruments for several years before she was born. How about playing music to cheer you up?"

The little girls in the audience were also relying on how brave they were, but unexpectedly someone dared to be the first bird, the hall suddenly became deserted, and everyone even forgot Mrs. Wei, and turned to look at the speaker.

This woman's clothing is not very gorgeous, but it has a sense of elegance. She is wearing a plain silk jacket, with small bright moon rings on her earlobes, and a chic orchid bun.There is such a beautiful woman in this hall?Everyone can't help but dumbfounded.

Wei Chi took a peek - isn't this Lin Yuzan?

Lin Yuzan walked through the banquet generously and freely, and gave Xu Wei a little blessing.

Xu Weiwei was stunned, and immediately asked, "What kind of musical instrument is the girl good at?"

"Qin," Lin Yuzan raised her head and said, "Young girl is not talented, so please ask Mr. Wei for advice."

Wei Chi was in a daze when he saw Lin Yuzhan smiling at him slightly, with the intention of rescuing the scene, and gradually understood in his heart that if something went wrong with someone today, he couldn't leave the scene, no matter what!Wei Chi pinched Eunuch Xu secretly, and said secretly, "I'll settle the score with you later!"

Xu Wei laughed and pushed Wei Chi to the front of the piano.

The palace maid also lifted a qin again, and pressed the seat outside the curtain.Lin Yuzan sat down gracefully: "The autumn river is moored at night, how is it?"

Wei Chi also smiled at her: "Okay."

People are suffering, and the suffering lies in a comparison. If people are not compared to others, which of the girls in this house is not a beauty?It's a pity that as soon as Lin Yuzan entered the arena, the three thousand pinks and blacks were colorless.People are happy, but they are happy in a word of contention. If the two pianos do not compete, how can they play such a test of people?

The music gradually started, but no one played it in harmony, only the sound of the two zithers was heard.

At the beginning, Wei Chixi had a slight advantage over himself, but later, he became entangled with each other.Wei Chi couldn't help being happy that this Lin Yuzan had a real hill in his chest, and gradually concealed the artistic conception of contention, and moved slowly, singing in harmony with it.During the fierce fighting between Qing and He, the two pianos harmonize into one, and it is difficult to distinguish each other.

At the end of the song, everyone was unsatisfied. Wei Chi stood up and bowed slightly. Only then did everyone realize that they clapped their hands and applauded.

"Okay!" Suddenly a voice came from the second floor.

emperor?Wei Chi looked up, and both of them were behind the veil, but Wei Chi knew that this person was looking at himself as well as Lin Yuzan.

Everyone was about to stand up and salute, but they didn't know that the shadow of the emperor just flashed and then disappeared.

Xu Wei entrusted a incense box and came down from upstairs: "The daughter of the Lin family accepts the reward!"

Lin Yuzan knelt down and took the incense box.

Xu Wei said slowly: "The emperor ordered that the daughter of the Lin family has both ability and political integrity. Just now, a piece of music is full of ingenuity and artistic conception. I specially wrote the ancient poem Fengqiao Night Mooring to respond to elegance and tranquility."

The four suddenly sighed.

Xu Wei turned back and said to Wei Chi: "The emperor still has an order: Lord Wei, I won't reward good things, let's reward a plate of fruit! Come out and receive the reward!"

After all, the palace maids rolled up the tulle, and what seemed like nothing was actually useful. Chen Yan's ruthless move immediately made the female guests present rush to pick up handkerchiefs to cover their faces.Wei Chi took the pastry from Xu Wei's hand, smiled and shook his head.

Lin Yuzan was not shy, and smiled at Wei Chi calmly: "My lord's piano skills are indeed well-deserved."

Wei Chi whispered: "Accept!"

Wei Chi felt a little grateful when he thought of her taking the initiative to stand up and rescue him, but it is not suitable to stay here for a long time, Wei Chi saluted Xu Wei again, and quickly retreated.

"Princess! Princess!" Tangtang pushed Yuxiang, "He's gone."

Yuxiang let out a cry, and only then did he come to his senses, and just now he felt that his face was flushed, and he quickly covered it up with his hands, only to feel that there was a pair of unbiased eyes looking at him.Yuxiang looked up suspiciously, but saw that Lin Yuzan smiled at him contemptuously, and walked down lightly, but there was no one on the stage.

The author has something to say: the number one beauty is indeed the number one beauty, as soon as she appears on the stage, she will immediately overwhelm the crowd.

Lin Meimei and Princess Chen are on the shoulders... Sister Yuxiang is wronged...
