Kite falling into red dust

In late spring, the warm sunlight sprinkles the water surface of the pond like a layer of gold dust.The breeze came, stirring the water in the pool and causing ripples.There are several tall and straight poplars and weeping willows by the pool, and the poplar catkins flutter in the wind like snow.There are a few birds parked on the tree, and the melodious birdsong echoes in the air.

However, in such good weather and beautiful scenery, some people are not in a very good mood.

In an elegant gazebo, two young men are sitting at a stone table playing chess.One of them, wearing a moon-white brocade gown, is more than eight feet tall, with two sword-shaped eyebrows flying slantingly into the temples on a jade-like face, and there is a faint sense of nobility between the eyebrows, and his long jet-black hair is tied into a The bun is tied with a hosta crown.He pushed the chessboard away irritably, and said, "I can't play anymore, I'll always lose to you!" Standing up, he brushed the catkins off his shoulders, opened the folding fan, and fanned it quickly.

The 20-year-old East Palace Prince Murong Mingyu of Dayan Kingdom would only show a childish side in front of his best friends.

Sitting opposite him was a young gentleman with a handsome appearance and a naughty smile, dressed in a sky blue brocade robe, who was the number one richest businessman in the capital, Xiao Langhao.

Xiao Langhao lightly shook the paper fan, said with a smile: "That's because your heart is restless." Putting the chess pieces back into the box, he said again: "I heard that it will be the king's 50th birthday in a little over a month. You are in charge of preparing the birthday banquet, are you upset about it?"

"Yes, according to the old system, the birthday banquet is almost ready, but the queen mother asked me to prepare a birthday gift, and I am having a headache because of this!"

"Then what's the trouble? Isn't it easy for His Majesty the crown prince to find a gift that suits your needs! It's really not possible, the antique calligraphy, paintings, pearls, jades and gemstones in my young master's mansion, which one do you like?" Xiao Langhao Said quite proudly.

"It's not that simple." Murong Mingyu sat down and took a sip of tea, "The queen mother made a request for me. As a prince, the birthday gift should not be inferior to other princes, and it must not be clichéd. It must be new and wonderful. Absolutely." He rubbed the center of his brows and said, "I don't have enough time to study and practice martial arts every day, so how can I find the extra time to find gifts?"

Xiao Langhao thought about it for a while, and said: "Actually, the queen's consideration is correct. To stabilize your position, culture and martial arts are of course important, but it is also essential to win the king's favor." He suddenly had a flash of inspiration, Standing up, "Don't worry, I'll take you to a place that can help you relax and maybe solve your problems along the way." "Where are you going?"

At night, the lights come on.A gorgeous carriage with purple brocade curtains and purple brocade curtains pulled by four maroon colts was rampaging recklessly on the flat and wide stone road in the capital, and pedestrians were afraid to avoid it.

Murong Mingyu sighed, shook the brocade fan, and said helplessly: "Master Xiao, can't we keep a low profile?"

Xiao Langhao leaned lazily in the spacious and comfortable seat, and said: "The one in my car is the prince, so what's the matter with being high-profile?"

"But your coachman's driving skills are too strong. Fortunately, this car is strong enough, otherwise it would have fallen apart." Murong Mingyu poked his head out of the car and took a look, "Isn't this the way to the Banxian Pavilion? I haven’t been there for a long time. It’s good to relax, but where can I find a birthday gift for my father?”

Xiao Langhao pretended to be mysterious with a smile: "Because you haven't been there for a long time, so I don't know. Half a year ago, a pair of sisters and brothers came to the Banished Fairy Pavilion. They are both excellent in sex and art. Now they have become the signs there. What a wonderful couple!" He smacked his lips as he spoke.

Murong Mingyu hit his head hard with a fan, "Hurry up and put away your wretched look! You still haven't answered my question."

He rubbed his head, opened the curtain and looked outside, "We're here, you'll know soon."

Under the plaque with the three gold characters of "The Pavilion of Immortals" written flying and dancing, stood two sturdy men in vigorous attire with knives at their waists.The carriage stopped, and the two big men recognized the carriage and the occupants, immediately saluted, and respectfully said: "Welcome His Highness the Crown Prince to the Banished Immortal Pavilion." The two got off the carriage, and immediately a young man in elegant attire greeted them, Lead the two in.

Just as they were about to enter the door, there was a sudden sound of horseshoes behind them.Looking back, a pitch-black steed galloped forward, and with a loud neighing, the horse raised its head high and stopped.A man in black jumped off the horse. He was tall and strong, with a dark complexion, and a handsome face with thick eyebrows and big eyes, which was tightly tensed, like a wood carving.

Xiao Langhao greeted him with a smile on his face and said: "Don't come here without any problems, Mo Yuan! Why don't you look very happy?" Mo Yuan ignored him at all, went straight to Murong Mingyu, knelt down on one knee and saluted, saying: "Mo Yuan Yuan kowtowed to His Highness!" Murong Mingyu hastily pulled him up, looked around, and said in a low voice: "How many times have I told you not to salute outside, do you want to lure out the whole street?"

Mo Yuan nodded, and said: "Mo Yuan knows his mistake, Mo Yuan has remembered it." With a sullen face, he looked at Murong Mingyue, and said again: "Why didn't His Highness tell the slaves when he left the mansion?" Murong Mingyue With a look of impatience on his face, "Does this palace still need your permission?" Mo Yuan said solemnly, "Mo Yuan is His Highness's personal bodyguard, and it is Mo Yuan's duty to protect His Highness at all times."

Murong Mingyu leaned into his ear, lowered his voice and said: "I just came out to play with friends, there will be no danger, you go back first!" But he insisted: "No matter where your highness is going, please let Mo Yuan follows." Murong Mingyu straightened up, glared at him angrily and said: "I order you, go back!" His expression did not change, he still said: "Please let Mo Yuan follow."

"You..." Murong Mingyu pointed at him, but couldn't speak. "Okay, okay," Xiao Langhao hurried to make a rescue, "Let's go in together, I haven't seen Mo Yuan for a long time, let's play together!" He put his arms around Murong Mingyu's shoulders and pushed him away Go in, followed by Mo Yuan.

Although the consumption here is high, not all wealthy local rich people can enter. In addition to wealth, you must also have Noble blood or certain rights and status are eligible to enter.The reason Xiao Langhao was able to come was that his family had supplied silk cloth to the royal family for four generations.
