Duan Zhishaohua

The shattered light turned into gold, sprinkled on the car curtain without greed.

Xin Ruoyuan picked up the curtain with his fan and talked non-stop along the way.

Contrary to him, Pei Jing sat upright, speechless all the way.

"My lord, why does he look sullen?" Xin Ruoyuan blinked and asked knowingly.

Pei Jing looked at him with disgust, thinking that this person had captured Qing Chen's heart, his eyes began to flicker again.

Seeing his eyes, Xin Ruoyuan also closed his mouth knowingly, and turned his head to continue to look at his scenery.

……

At this time, it was mid-morning, the street was buzzing with people, it should be the busiest time of the day for restaurants and restaurants.

Duan Shaohua held the lyre wrapped tightly in the thick black cloth, and solemnly walked towards Xueyu Building step by step.

In the eyes of outsiders, Duan Shaohua is just a frail scholar who can't lift his hands, shoulders, and kill a chicken. No matter where he goes to find a job, he is always the first to be scolded.I'm afraid that this weak scholar who hasn't earned enough money will have to hurt himself first, and instead want him to lose money as the boss.

But thinking about it, Duan Shaohua smiled and tightened his grip on the piano in his hand.If he didn't even have this skill, he might really become a piece of soft meat supported by others, with no skin or face.

Occasionally, thinking about it, it is really thanks to the careful training of his parents when his family was still in its prime, he had to choose piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. He chose piano only for business, never thought that one day it would become the whole of making a living.

Now, besides playing the piano, he doesn't know what else to do.

Fortunately, his piano skills are good, and he has gained a good reputation in the arty No. [-] Xueyu Building. He plays a few "Fantasy Songs" every day, and naturally there will be a lot of money.

If he and Bao Yatou's family lived well off with the silver they earned before, but because of the stubborn illness, he and the elders saved very little silver. A few days ago, for the Changbai Mountain ginseng that was enough to last their lives He even gave everything he had, and even sold the tile-roofed house that covered his head with his feet.In a few days, the owner will come to take over the house. Before that, he can only save enough silver to keep him renting a house for a living.

It's just that Bao girl, although life and death are destined, how can she give up.

There was another surge of sadness, Duan Shaohua simply shook his head.Sadness always wears down the will, and now he alone must not fall.

Gathering up his strength, he saw Xueyulou was approaching.

As soon as he entered the door, the shopkeeper greeted him as soon as he saw him, with a rare solemnity on his face.

Duan Shaohua was suspicious and hurriedly asked what was the matter.

The shopkeeper can't reveal too much, but only said that two important guests came to listen to the piano today, and they specified that they wanted the most outstanding luthier here. Naturally, Duan Shaohua was required to pick him up for this fat job.

Since he is a fat job, it is inevitable that he should give more rewards. Duan Shaohua was overjoyed, and before he could open his mouth, the shopkeeper took the words.

"As long as you make those two gentlemen happy, you will naturally have money. It's just." He suddenly became serious, "These two guests are not just ordinary dignitaries and riches. You must not make any mistakes, otherwise it's not just you. I, I'm afraid even my Xueyu Building will not be able to gain a foothold in the capital from now on."

It's so serious, Duan Shaohua became wary, maybe it's not just as simple as being rich, it's probably just a matter of official words.

But if you have money, you are the uncle.

Duan Shaohua nodded, held the qin, and led the road boy upstairs.

In the private room on the second floor, those two extraordinary figures are there.

The boy knocked on the door, and then pushed open the door and entered after getting a word.But Duan Shaohua kept his head down, following the rules, he walked behind the screen where the piano player should sit.

The beauty is still holding the pipa, and the half-covered ivory screen with lacquer painting cuts off the sight of the two.

Duan Shaohua took a deep breath, put his hands on the strings, and thought about the song.

It's rare to have a flattering mind, think about it, borrow things to express your feelings, a song of plum blossoms and three tricks are most suitable.

The three tricks are three variations, Duan Shaohua dare not relax for a moment.From the first falling note, it is as clear as a spring.

The finger rises like a green onion, the hands sing like a phoenix, and the sound of the zither comes out.

At the beginning, it was like a gurgling spring flowing, clearing people's hearts.

Listening to the sound of big and small pearls falling on the jade plate, Xin Ruoyuan raised his eyebrows, twisted the lid of the tea and smiled, "How do you feel?"

Pei Jing has been silent since he entered the door, and this time he just said coldly: "Showing off."

Xin Ruoyuan closed the folding fan with a "wow", followed by two "tsk tsk".

Pei Jing's rustling sound was low and deep, and his voice was low and concentrated, which actually overwhelmed the sound of the piano, Duan Shaohua could hear it clearly.

My mind was in a trance for a moment, and I almost made a wrong sound when I pointed.

Immediately rang the alarm bell loudly, annoyed that he almost lost his sense of proportion.

The sound of the piano is still going on, gradually getting louder and louder, and the rushing water rushes across the Hengjiang River, rushing out of the nest.Lingyun Yuxiao, plum blossoms in the wind, and qin sounds are dazzling, making people want to be drunk.

Xin Ruoyuan outside the screen closed his eyes, raised his head, detached from the sound of the piano, and began to imagine the person playing the piano in his mind.

It should be gentle and elegant, like sitting in the spring breeze, or romantic and unrestrained, able to express affection with eyebrows.

He was thinking about music, but he heard a sneer next to him, Xin Ruoyuan opened his eyes, it turned out that he had spoken the words unconsciously.

Pei Jing had a mocking smile on his face.

Xin Ruoyuan shook his head, still smiling, "What I'm saying is the truth, if you listen to the sound and guess people, it should be said that the prince doesn't understand charm."

"It's poor and romantic after all." Pei Jing was still very disdainful.

Xin Ruoyuan sighed, "No matter what you say, he is an excellent luthier. In the eyes of your Prince Jing, it is a waste. Just like the thousand-year-old mountain ginseng, it is a treasure that ordinary people can't even ask for in their lifetime. You Just throw it into the dog's mouth like this." Speaking of this, he felt a pity again, and shook his head again and again, only to feel that the fan sent out only sour wind.

Unexpectedly, as soon as this remark came out, the sound of the piano stopped abruptly, but the ending sound trembled, showing the surprise of the player.

After a brief silence, Xin Ruoyuan laughed out loud, and joked: "It can be seen that Prince Jing is so famous, which scares the best luthier."

There was ridicule in the words, and after that there was silence like stagnant water, and Duan Shaohua behind the screen was trembling all over.

The words between the two completely disturbed the mind, and the tense strings ran across the fingertips, scratching the skin.

Duan Shaohua couldn't sit still anymore, stood up and walked out of the screen.

As far as the eye can see are two guests in brocade clothes, the one who looks more majestic should be Prince Jing?

Pei Jing and the two watched him walk out, perhaps the room was full of sunlight, and seeing him was even more gorgeous.

In the golden light of thousands of rays, one can only see that this person is tall and thin, dressed in light green clothes, and has a calm demeanor.An indigo headband tumbled down her black hair over her shawl.

In Qingjun, Youdao has a face as white as powder, and lips as bright as vermilion.

Duan Shaohua also knew that he was abrupt and not in line with the rules, but this step has already been taken, and it is a crime to turn back.

Xin Ruoyuan shook his fan at the right time, and said loudly: "You call yourself a prince, why don't you kneel?"

This sentence brought Duan Shaohua back to reality in time, he was taken aback for a moment, looked at that majestic, and tried again, "Dare to ask, is this really Prince Jing?"

Pei Jing raised his eyebrows, and said calmly: "Do you think someone dares to impersonate me?"

Duan Shaohua felt his heart tighten, thinking of those words, he didn't know whether it was fear or hatred.

But according to the rules, I still knelt down and said, "See you, my lord."

Pei Jing didn't look at him, but asked instead: "You walked out of the screen before the song was over, because you heard the words Prince Jing and you couldn't wait to get the reward."

Duan Shaohua's heart sank slightly because of the real irony in the words, and he remained silent.

Unexpectedly, his silence caused Prince Jing to pick a thorn, "The so-called number one luthier is nothing more than that, don't play when it should be played, don't talk when it should be said, just throw it away."

In the words, they wanted to cut off his retreat.

Adding a hint of sullenness, Duan Shaohua stood up suddenly, and looked at the predecessor with his eyes stained with fire.

Pei Jing originally thought he would beg for mercy, but now he was a little surprised, few people would dare to look at him like that.Except for the Lord of the West Inner Court.

Duan Shaohua looked at him without blinking, Bao girl's illness, the old man's savings, the precious things lost, and his harsh words, all played back in his mind.

Pei Jing was going to see how much integrity this luthier had, whether he was going to make sour accusations from a literati or a righteous speech, but he didn't want to say anything, just staring at himself.

Could it be that, Pei Jing raised the corner of his mouth, "What are you doing watching me all this time?"

Duan Shaohua kept his gaze fixed, with a bit of sarcasm, "The grassroots just want to see what the dignitaries who care about human lives look like."

Pei Jing's face darkened, did he come to seek revenge?

Xin Ruoyuan, who has been staying out of the matter, looked at all this playfully, and added, "When did the prince forge the enmity, and he met like this."

Pei Jing had already explained the future at this time, and smiled lowly, "I'm afraid it's false to think of revenge, but it's true to want to attract my king's attention."

After speaking, he looked at Duan Shaohua from top to bottom, and he seemed to let go of his body, "If you can sell everything, I can buy you for one night."

Full of ridicule, Duan Shaohua's chest twitched violently, even though he is a down-and-out young master, he has never been insulted like this.

Restraining his anger, Duan Shaohua tried his best to calm down and said: "Your Highness is a royal heavenly man, how dare grassroots climb up high. Besides, the south wind and his like, I'm afraid it will ruin your reputation."

After retorting every sentence, Pei Jing slightly focused, as if surprised.

Duan Shaohua looked away, gritted his teeth a bit and said: "The grass people were rude just now, they are pity for the life-saving things that were taken away by the prince. They are precious, and I don't want to be ruined like this."

Wei Wei was taken aback for a moment before realizing that he was talking about the ginseng plant.

Being reminded again and again, it is difficult for Pei Jing to forget the pain of being rejected by Qing Chen.

"Since it is a property of Prince Jing's residence, it is up to me how to deal with it."

"My lord knows that this will kill a person." Duan Shaohua was anxious, and his tone was also sharp.

Listening to his talk about human life, it also involves medicinal materials.Pei Jing figured it out after a few moments of thought.

It seems that someone in his family was suffering from a serious illness, and was waiting for this ginseng to go back to continue his life, but he was one step ahead of him, and it was in the hands of Prince Jing's residence.

Pei Jing snorted coldly, with a cold light in his eyes, "If you only tie the life of a dying person to a single ginseng, then all the doctors in the world won't have to use their brains to do things. .”

Before Duan Shaohua could argue, Pei Jing added fuel to the fire, "It's the destiny, if you have the power, then today's treasure will be in your hands."

If you don't take a closer look at him, you can already imagine his expressionless expression of grief and indignation.
