The wind

Chapter 24

Xiao Zhouheng heard the reason from Huangfu Chu: Huangfu Chu was going to teach the piano that day, and was stopped by an old man shortly after leaving the house. Huangfu Chu thought it was a beggar, but when he saw it clearly, he found that the person was Li Fu. Old Luan outside.The man could not speak clearly, but kept chanting Xiao Zhouheng's name, and pointed out a way for Huangfu Chu.

Huangfu Chu was puzzled, he didn't have time to think about how the old man Luan lost his mind, so he walked along the road, and after a while, he saw Xiao Zhouheng with a hurried expression. Heng's unknown person.

This is what happened in that day.

Huangfu Chu said: "But I really don't know why Mr. Qu is there. I wanted to explain the matter of old man Luan to you later, but I didn't expect the arrester Yu and Jiaoxi Han to come again. I felt untrustworthy for the two of them, so I didn't." carry."

Xiao Zhouheng was surprised: "How can the two of them be untrustworthy?"

"Although Han Jiaoxi is employed by the Li family like you, he is someone close to General Li." Yin Jiuchu, who had been listening to the side, interjected, "No matter what old man Luan is, let's talk about Jidou first. Tie Father Han Dong chided. Shu Ting, he is only in his thirties, why is he willing to give up the battlefield and live in the Li Mansion?"

Yin Jiuchu paused: "Furthermore, why did Catcher Yu dispel the rumors about you and the Sixteenth Miss of the Li Mansion in the city?"

"I don't believe that he just flaunts his quick tongue. The two of them are not things in the pool. You have to be careful." Huangfu Chu said, "What's more, the two of them happened to be one step late on the day of the assassination? If I don't believe that old man Luan What you said, or without Mr. Qu, wouldn't they just be able to collect your body for you?"

"That's right, Shu Ting, don't trust others too much." Yin Jiuchu got up and put away the book, "Yu Xing and I naturally have to be wary."

Although the two people's words are cruel and direct, they are not unreasonable. In addition, Yin Jiuchu's last sentence eased the atmosphere somewhat. Xiao Zhouheng couldn't help but smile: "We have known each other for several years, if you plan Me, I am willing too."

If it weren't for the support of these two people back then, I might have died on the pile of corpses after my parents died and my family business was taken away by others.

Huangfu Chu raised his hand, and swallowed the last bite of fruit: "I almost forgot, we got together before we left, we had a hookah, today we invited a few small singers in the hall, it was very lively."

Yin Jiuchu said: "What song is it singing? I don't want to listen to old songs."

"Of course it's a new song. If it's bad, how can it be the host?"

"Kongjie has booked the venue?" Xiao Zhouheng also became interested, "Could it be that today's Xiaochang was the one he fell in love with before?"

"How do I know, empty knots are always unpredictable, who knows if this time is the same as last time."

While talking and laughing, the three of them left the painting and calligraphy shop, and took a sedan chair to Shiyanmei.

The Hookah Mae, built by the water, can be regarded as the most favorite hall for literati and refined scholars in the Jiaofangsi area. Not to mention all the incomparably beautiful girls, just because of the built-in theater, there are new songs every few days. ; Coupled with the gimmick that what is popular in the capital, what is popular in the local area is enough to make people stop and forget to return.

This time, several people entered through the gate, and just after entering the gate, the sound of silk and bamboo on the stage started, and several actors were already warming up the venue.

From afar, he saw Ding Zhongchou sitting in an elegant seat on the high platform on the second floor, chatting and laughing with several other people who looked like rich men.When Ding Zhongchou saw a few people, he immediately greeted them to go upstairs, and then introduced the three masters of Jinling to the young masters beside him, taking advantage of the opportunity, he led them to sit again.

Everyone met, talked and laughed for a while, and after drinking some wine, Xiao Zhouheng looked around and suddenly asked: "Jianjue won't come today, but you're back to Songjiang?"

Jiang Ruli and Ding Zhongchou have always been like twins, they are inseparable all day long, but today they only see Ding Zhongchou, this is the first time Xiao Zhouheng has seen them since he met them. "How would I know." Ding Zhongchou flicked his sleeves, and the jade pendant on his waist bumped against each other, "It is estimated that he was captured by his father, it happened before, it's nothing strange."

"He doesn't stay home all day, of course Mr. Jiang is angry." Huangfu Chu said with a smile, "Young master of a family can't just idle around all day like me, a rascal like me."

Everyone laughed, and soon their attention was attracted by the little singer who appeared on the stage—a man posing as a woman, dressed in a gold silk and red costume, and with a smile on his face, he could see the Luoyang girl in his sleeves. The flowers are light and colorful, but after taking a few steps, the flowers on the clothes seem to be coming towards you.Although there was makeup on her face, she could still see her complexion and natural features.

Xiao Zhouheng thought to himself, although this Ding Zhongchou is worthy of being a seasoned lingering veteran with good taste, even though that child is an outcast, he still has a delicate bone.

Together with the first tune, Yin Jiuchu happened to pick up a peanut, listened carefully, and sighed: "It's really a new song! Did Yu Xing hear it before?"

"Never." Huangfu Chu said, "A tune that is neither south nor north, doesn't seem like a Central Plains song."

Ding Zhongchou moved the corner of his mouth: "Yin Huaman is not from the Central Plains, so naturally he doesn't sing Central Plains songs."

Xiao Zhouheng said: "Yin Huaman? The name is unique, but he is from the Western Regions..."

Without waiting for Xiao Zhouheng to finish speaking, Yin Huaman opened her lips and sang: "Jiumo visitors raise dark dust."One day, the lights are foggy and the clouds are locked.The snow on Yaotai reflects endless jade, and the flowers in Langyuan never fall in spring...

Xiao Zhouheng was taken aback for a moment, that was not his own words.Everyone also listened and praised Xiao Zhouheng again. After a few rounds of drinking, Xiao Zhouheng only felt that the little singer beside him who was playing the piano was very familiar, and he always felt that he had seen it somewhere before. However, the good wine quickly dispelled this thought.

... Collect treasure rides, cluster carved wheels.The Five Marquis Gate of the Han Palace.The Jingyang clock is moving before returning, and there are still traces of looking at the moon on the west window... *

After singing a song, Ding Zhongchou laughed and clapped his hands, "Reward, reward!" After saying that, he pulled the attendant aside and asked, "How much money did you bring today?"

It was only then that several people realized that Ding Zhongchou's attendants were actually carrying small baskets, and the baskets were full of loose silver.

At this time, an unknown young master leaned over, folded a fan in his hand and tapped Xiao Zhouheng's chin, covering his voice, "Mr. Jue Yan is curious why he brought so much money out."

The young master seemed to be on good terms with Ding Zhongchou, but Xiao Zhouheng didn't quite recognize him, Xiao Zhouheng was very displeased with his abruptness, moved away from the man slightly, and reluctantly said: "I'm really curious."

The man squeezed over again, and the handle of the folding fan in his hand seemed to rub against Xiao Zhouheng's hand: "Naturally, I have face, I learned it from the capital, and all the young masters over there do this."

Xiao Zhouheng remained calm, with a smile on his face, but he held the fan with his backhand, his slender fingers climbed up the back of the man's hand, and pinched the man's right hand as if in retaliation.

The man seemed to have received some letter, he only thought that Xiao Zhouheng was flirting with him, so he winked at him, licked his lips again, and turned his head to talk to others.Xiao Zhouheng felt nauseated for a while, and sneered inwardly.

No one around him noticed this episode, not because there was little movement, but because everyone else's attention was on Ding Zhongchou, who was walking down the stairs while picking up money.

Fluttering like flowers flying in the sky, Ding Zhongchou took out the silver coins in the box one by one and scattered them down. He laughed maniacally, but showed compassion everywhere, like a Bodhi coming to the world, wanting to save all those who indulge in pleasure.

The individual guests downstairs, the servants in the hall, and the shepherds in the chamber saw someone throwing money, and they didn't care about the pain of throwing it. They all came out of their own rooms and gathered downstairs, shouting and raising their heads to receive the money. .Seeing this, the tortoise slaves in the hall also screamed with each other holding their throats.All of a sudden, the room was buzzing with excitement.

Yin Huaman also covered her mouth and snickered, and saluted Ding Zhongchou from afar.

Seeing the beauty's open face, Ding Zhongchou's heart was full of colorful flowers, and he couldn't help but say that he wanted to throw again, only to hear the young man next to him yell, and something fell, and then he realized that the person's right hand was swollen It was so tall, and it was still slightly purple. With the pain and wailing, its face was very ferocious.Everyone didn't know why, and they asked in a hurry. They were obviously fine, but why did their hands swell up.Xiao Zhouheng felt the man's venomous gaze, but ignored it, and concentrated on picking up the dried fruit on the plate to eat.

Ding Zhongchou still missed Yin Huaman on the stage, and didn't want to disturb the fun, so he hurriedly ordered the turtle slaves in the hall to send the man to the medical center, turned around and played a few more songs, Yin Huaman continued to wave on the stage sleeves.

……

Compared with the lively Jiaofang Division, the Li Mansion is even more lonely and boundless.

The thirteenth young master Li Yunguang first bet on chuiwan all day today, and after closing the garden, he touched the cards for a while in the tiles on the South Street. After drinking for a long time, when the boy Hong Tanmei reminded him, he had already entered Even.Reluctantly, he left the restaurant and returned to Li's residence with his own cricket cage.

Anyway, Li Yunguang took several days off at Wuling, and the few days he returned to Li's mansion passed in such a loose manner.

The eyes are full of Baoding Yaoqin, embroidered doors and carvings, Liuying flower array, and Chang'e in the moon. There is really no place as good as Jinling, Li Yunguang thought so.

After returning to the mansion, he was walking staggeringly with Hong Tanmei's support, when he saw a black shadow drifting in front of his eyes, Li Yunguang scratched randomly in the air, and shouted: "Who is that?"

The black shadow was startled, as if he didn't think anyone would be there at this moment, he ran up in an instant, Li Yunguang wanted to chase after him, but because he was taller than Hong Tanmei himself, and the person who had eaten the wine was stressed, Hong Tanmei was taken by this fight. He even fell down, but Li Yunguang muttered something unclear: "What are you panicking, why are you running! Stop for me!"

Hong Tanmei was dizzy, and the cricket also took the opportunity to escape from the cage, finally helped Li Yunguang up, squinted his eyes for a while, but asked in doubt: "Master, why did that man come out of Miss Sixteen's residence?"

Li Yunguang rolled his eyelids, grunted, tilted his head, leaned against Hong Tanmei, and fell asleep just like that.

After the hustle and bustle has passed, the dawn light shines in from the window, as if the east is white.

Ding Zhongchou had long bowed to Yin Huaman's tender heart, and the other strangers also got up to say goodbye.Yin Jiuchu, who was overwhelmed by alcohol, also fell asleep for a long time, Xiao Zhouheng gave some money to the hall and asked them to send Yin Jiuchu back to the painting shop first.

Xiao Zhouheng and Huangfu Chu came out of the hookah, and now it was time to say goodbye—in the rustling autumn sound, Xiao Zhouheng glimpsed the flash of weariness in Huangfu Chu's eyes.

Although he lived in the world with a good reputation, he was exposed to the wind and rain all day long, and his habitat was very poor. Thinking about his recent situation, Xiao Zhouheng only felt that everything in the world was not going his way.She had never asked Huangfu Chu what was in her mind, but now she hoped to have a drink with him after he returned this time.Thinking of this, Xiao Zhouheng was relieved a lot, and then said with a smile: "The few of us are waiting for you to come back, the fire is full of red wine, is the sincerity enough?"

Huangfu Chu also laughed: "That's enough."
