Coming out of the Shen residence, the servant had already led Ma Hou at the door, and upon seeing Xie Ling, he asked, "My lord, are you going back to the household department?"

Xie Ling was still thinking about what he wanted to buy for Shen's house, so he turned on his horse with a "huh" casually, but the servant reminded him: "My lord, have you forgotten? Today is the son of Wei Guogong who invited you to the southern suburbs In Shi's day, the Shizi's family came to remind me several times earlier, do you think it's still going?"

Xie Ling was startled, and then remembered this.

Some time ago, Wei Guogong's son got a batch of high-quality Taihu stones from nowhere. Their shapes are uncanny. Smart and elegant.Those who can see it are all amazed.

The son of Wei Guogong has a rough and bold personality, and he doesn't like these elegant things very much.Unexpectedly, he married a concubine a few years ago, a talented woman from a well-known family in the capital. Since childhood, she loved reciting the wind and admiring the moon, playing with stones and serving flowers.In order to please his wife, the prince of the Duke of Wei would go up to the poor and go down to the underworld, giving him whatever he wanted, exotic flowers and plants, rare birds and beasts, and antiques. Even the moon that couldn't be picked had to find a way to cast a shadow.

Hearing that his wife likes to view strange stones, the son specially transported these strange stones from the west of Sunan to Beijing, specially arranged a stone forest in the southern suburbs, and chose today to invite famous talents from the capital to watch the stone inscriptions stone.

Xie Ling didn't intend to join in the fun at first, but then he thought that the stone forest in the southern suburbs was the only way for him to pass through when he was about to return to Beijing.It would be great if he could see his handwriting and poems written on the stone wall when he was riding his horse.

Thinking of this moment, the corner of Xie Jin's mouth couldn't help curling into a shallow smile.After making up his mind, he turned his horse's head and headed towards the southern suburbs.

Wei Guogong's son has a wide network and great influence. As soon as Xie Ling left the south gate, he saw that the wide official road was crowded with vehicles and servants. It seemed that all the people sitting inside were young masters and young ladies from aristocratic families who were going to watch the stone. .Xie Ling urged the horse to go, passed the curtain of chariots and the scent of horse bells, and saw the stone forest from a distance.

The son found this place very well.Since the publication of Xie Qin's "Looking for Plums in Nanshan" many years ago, the southern suburbs have become a holy place for literati to go outing.Today's stone forest is located under the Nanshan forest, and you can see the green mountains and forests, the strange stones and ancient trees are intertwined, and the artificial and natural fusion are perfectly integrated.

Dismounting from the horse in front of the door, people from the Shizi's residence have long since come to greet him.Xie Ling walked all the way in with the boy who led the way, raised his eyes and looked closely, and was really shocked.

The ancients once said, "Cuiwei is scattered and scattered, and there is a pile of green jade. The fairy palms on the peaks come out, and the gate of the sword opens" (Bai Juyi, "Fenghe Si'an and the Taihu stone sent by Li Suzhou are unique in their strange shape").It can be seen that the strange stones are magnificent, and walking among them is like being in a place outside the world, like entering a fairyland, which is even more amazing than the most fantastic dream.

In the depths of the stone forest, there is a rockery, which looks like Chang'e flying into the sky, graceful and slender; a small platform is lifted on the mountain, which looks like Chang'e reaching out to touch the bright moon.A pavilion with four corners was set up on the small platform, and the snow-colored gauze curtains around the pavilion danced gently in the wind. From a distance, it really looked like a fairyland in the Moon Palace.

Such a magnificent scene, even Xie Jin couldn't help laughing: "It's really a good place."

"My lord, this place is called 'Bi Hai Qing Tian', it is the highest point of the entire stone forest, and it is also a place to watch the scenery." The servant of the Shi Zi's family smiled and said, "The Shi Zi has been waiting for you for a long time, please."

Climbing up the steps and coming to Taichung, I saw a few people sitting in the four-cornered pavilion.The son of Wei Guogong lives on the left side, drinking and laughing with several princes of the rich family; on the right side stands a screen, and the women must be sitting inside.

"Thank you, brother!" Upon seeing Xie Ling, Duke Wei immediately clapped his hands and laughed loudly, got up and greeted him, "Long time no see, it's rare that you can spare some time!"

The son of the prince and his group got the shade from their family, and they only knew how to have fun, play with hawks and fight dogs all day long.Xie Ling used to get together with them, but since Shen Yi left the capital, he seldom came out, it seems that he hadn't seen Shizi and the others for a long time.

Other people present also got up to greet him one after another, one of them smiled and said: "Thank you for coming, what is there to compare with today? It must be the leader."

The prince of Wei Guogong pulled Xie Ling over, pointed to a stack of papers on the desk and said with a smile: "Today, all the talented people who come here are educated. I asked my servants to prepare paper and pens in various places in the stone forest, so that everyone can write poems at will. All the poems will be presented to us for our review, and after a few days if they are well written, I will call the stonemason to rub the poems on the stone surface.”

Xie Ling raised his eyes, and he saw figures running back and forth all over the stone forest, and there were young servants rushing around with pens, ink, paper and inkstones in their hands, and dozens of poems were constantly handed over to the "blue sea and blue sky".

At this time, I heard a faint female voice sighing quietly, and came from behind the screen on the right: "It's a pity that the poems handed over are either swear words or swear words. If you can get it, Shi Less than one."

Wei Guogong's son hurriedly said: "Madam, don't worry, isn't Master Xie here? You know his talent and learning, and he will definitely get a good sentence today."

Unexpectedly, Xie Ling waved his hand and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is too famous. There are so many talented people present today, so he dare not show his shame rashly."

Wei Guogong's son was stunned for a moment, and was about to persuade him again, but suddenly he heard the concubine over there sighed and said in a low voice: "The 'Tinglan Langyu' of the past, now that Langyu has passed away, and Tinglan has returned to the mountain, it is really a pity .”

The atmosphere in the Sijiao Pavilion suddenly froze, and everyone became a little embarrassed, and all looked at Xie Ling with stealthy eyes.The son of Wei Guogong was also a little embarrassed, he approached Xie Ling quietly, and said in a low voice: "my wife is not malicious, brother Xie, don't mind... She likes to read Mr. Maybe it’s out of emotion.”

Xie Jin looked calm, smiled and waved his hands, then turned around, bowed slightly to the figure of the woman behind the curtain and saluted, "It's my luck to be appreciated by Madam."

Seeing that he didn't care about it, Duke Wei hurriedly let him sit at the table, and led him to read the collected poems together.Xie Ling flipped through it, and it was true that good and bad were mixed.There are many famous people here today, and most of these poems are written by tourists who are not well-known.

He originally thought of writing a poem, and then asked someone to rub it on the stone wall, so that when Shen Yu returned to Beijing, he could see his trace immediately.But at this moment, when he saw the crowded and noisy battle, he felt that Shen Bian might not be willing to join in the excitement when he returned to Beijing, and his interest in writing poetry suddenly faded.

Xie Ling flipped through the paper in a disinterested manner, while the servant brought up a stack of newly written poems and essays.The prince of Wei Guogong took it and distributed it to everyone. Everyone commented and commented:

"'The lake at the foot of Dongting Mountain is full of blue waves, and among the waves are eternal and secluded stones. The iron chain Qianxun got it, and who can recognize the strange shapes'... How about these few sentences?"

"It's a little plain, is there anything else to say?"

"How about this song!...'What is the meaning of borrowing a piece of stone from you, and put it in the court to comfort you and live alone. Every time you drink in Yushan, you will be as happy as you are drunk with Shangshu'."

"This song is wonderful! It's very good to borrow stones to sue friends."

When everyone was discussing in full swing, they suddenly heard a soft "Huh" from the imperial concubine behind the screen.

"My lords, please listen to the song I'm Here.

'Being a stunner in this world is like being a man of talent.Cross the river with a reed, and enter Luo Wuding.

Although the source is unintentional, there is also a matchmaker for the ups and downs.Pull it out from the bottom of the water house, and put it in the Xiangting Kuma.

Recite poems symmetrically, it is appropriate to hold a wine glass.Finally use it with the gold, don't learn from the jade mountain.

Shu Fu's heart is partial, and Yuan Gong's eyes are repeated.There is no such thing as a total sigh, and we come to Taihu Lake in vain. '"

Everyone in the four-cornered pavilion listened, and their eyes gradually lit up.Someone murmured the phrase "Use it with gold, don't learn from Yushan", shaking his head, he was very intoxicated.But no one noticed, Xie Qin who was sitting on the side suddenly sat up straight, his eyes slowly widened.

"Good poetry..." "Exquisite and capable, without any affixes." "The artistic conception is transcendent, and the bearing is extraordinary."

"And..." The imperial concubine behind the screen unfolded the scroll, and said carefully, "This person's pen and ink are also extraordinary, and his strokes are so handsome."

...face and body.

Xie Ling felt his head buzzing, got up abruptly, and rushed behind the screen with big strides.Amid the astonishment of the crowd and the coquettish cries of the female relatives, he rushed in and snatched the piece of paper from Shi Zifei's hand.

The light and fluffy paper seemed to be extremely heavy in his hands.Xie Jin's hands trembled, his five fingers clenched the corners uncontrollably, his heart was like a boulder rolling down a cliff, rushing forward.

In the end, it turned out to be a beautiful and elegant face, with rich rhymes in the characters, beautiful but not charming, and strong bones.The text of the poem is already very good, and this writing adds a lot of color.It is no exaggeration to say that there are no more than ten people in this dynasty who can have such calligraphy skills.

They all speak their words like their own.Looking at this handwriting at this time, it is not difficult to imagine how outstanding the person who wrote it is.

As if falling from a cliff to a soft cloud, Xie Qin loosened his body, blurred his eyes, staggered and almost knocked down the screen beside him.He only felt that his throat was blocked, and the extreme emotions rushed wildly in his body, and he was about to lose control in the next moment.

"Thank you for making it!" At this time, the prince of Wei Guogong also rushed over in a rage, and grabbed him, "Why are you crazy?!"

Xie Qin slowly turned his head and stared at him: "...the person who wrote the poem."

"I asked you why you're crazy!" Seeing that Xie Qin was rude to his wife, the prince of Wei Guogong couldn't care less about politeness, and said angrily, "Could it be that you are in a daze? You—"

However, he suddenly stopped talking.Because he saw Xie Jin's eyes—the eyes were trembling, the whites of the eyes were red, and crazy emotions flashed quickly, almost like a wild beast in panic.

Wei Guogong's son was stunned, and shrank for a while: "You..."

Xie Ling threw him away, turned around and asked the boy who had just handed the poem: "Who is the person who wrote the poem? Where is he!"

The young man was so frightened that he fell to his knees with a "plop", and said in a trembling voice, "It's a young man in Tsing Yi. He is, he is in the west, in that direction..."

Xie Ling ignored the different expressions and winks of the people around him, flew off the stage and rushed out.

... Liangqing.

Liang Qing, is that you?

It must be you, I know your handwriting, and that is also a poem that you can write.You're back, you're finally back.I'm going to find you, hurry up, I'll see you soon!

One of his hearts almost lost its rhythm, his eyes were darkened, his whole body trembled, and his chest was so tight that he couldn't breathe.He didn't know how to relieve it, so he could only run forward desperately.It's like a traveler who has trekked thousands of miles in the desert and is extremely dry. Only by finding the sweet spring can he relieve the pain.

After two years, you are finally back... Do you know that I am here, right next to you?

Like a crazy beast, he rushed all the way to the direction the boy pointed.When I saw people on the road, I asked, "Did you see a young man in Tsing Yi?" "Have you seen a handsome young man who is good at writing poems?"

But the people who come to Stone Forest here are more wearing Tsing Yi, and we all meet each other by chance, who can know who writes poetry well?In addition, when everyone saw his hasty and crazy behavior, they were all terrified, and they all shook their heads and said they didn't see him.

Xie Ling asked dozens of people repeatedly, and ran all the way to the entrance of the stone forest, but still got nothing.When he raised his eyes, he could see bustling crowds and unfamiliar faces, and he could not see the person he was thinking about.

Despair after ecstasy is like a wave of extinction.He closed his eyes uncontrollably, supported the jagged stone wall with one hand, took a deep breath trembling, and felt that the breath entering his chest was like a knife scraping flesh and blood, causing him to bend down in pain.

Liangqing... are you really here?

I miss you like crazy, I...I miss you so much.

----

At the same time, under a hidden stone rock on the west side of the stone forest entrance.

There were bursts of exclamations and noises from behind, causing several young masters traveling with their companions to turn their heads and look back.But the path in this stone forest is winding and secluded, even if it is only a few steps away, they can only hear the sound and don't know what happened on the other side.

One of the youths in blue clothes said dissatisfiedly: "This is the place of elegance. I don't know who is making loud noises. It's really out of style."

Several other people couldn't help agreeing.

"Gentlemen, why don't we go deeper." The blue-clothed youth suggested, "There are so many people here, it's too noisy."

Several other people nodded in agreement, but only a young man in Tsing Yi was a few steps behind and looked up at the sky.

Among these few people, he was the only one wearing a curtain hat, with a long flowing white gauze hanging on his chest, making it impossible to see his appearance clearly.However, although his face is not visible, it can be seen that his figure is tall and straight, his back is like a distant mountain, his waist is like floating clouds, his legs are as straight as bamboo, and he is wearing an ordinary green clothes, but he is really outstanding.

At this time, I only heard him speak, and said in a clear and soft voice: "Everyone, go. It's getting late today, and I'm afraid my family will be worried, so I have to go first."

Everyone was taken aback for a moment, all showing reluctance.They didn't know this young man in Tsing Yi, but they fell in love with him at the first sight, and they felt that although this man didn't look like a man, but his gestures and actions revealed a sense of elegance, he must be an extraordinary person, and he would like to make friends with him.

"Young master is going now?" The young man in blue took the lead in saluting and said with a smile, "But you still don't know your name? Where can you get a job?"

Behind the curtain, the man in Tsing Yi seemed to lower his head and smiled.

"My lord, you are being polite... I am an unknown person, and I am just a returning guest who has been away from home for a long time."
