[Hua Yang] Water and Moon

The lights were dyed orange, and the blush on Qin Yuezhi's ears didn't look too embarrassed.

Hua Wujian talked to the girl in a low voice, seeming to be concentrating on it, but the entangled fingers hidden behind the case by the cushion were relentless, clasping him, making him unable to break free. At the end of the conversation, he nodded and sent her away, then turned around and pretended Seeing Wu, he simply brought his hands to his knees, and closed his hands up and down as if hugging him, causing Qin Yuezhi to sigh helplessly.

"Yuezhi, how do you like the dance on the stage?" Hua Wujian asked, looking at the petaled skirt, instead of teasing him when he heard people throwing money on the stage.

"Beautiful and fascinating." Qin Yuezhi answered with lowered eyebrows.

"You know beauty without looking at it, but do you know that all kinds of splendor are not as good as Qing?" Hua Wujian finally looked at him, and his eyes gleamed into his twinkling eyes. , and it’s more than a hair’s breadth away.”

Hearing the second half of his sentence suddenly raised his voice, Qin Yuezhi was tightened by his closed hands, Hua Wujian shook his head to signal to him, he knew it in his heart and waited silently.

"So what if Chang'an's Pear Garden is so good? Now that the capital of Xijing has been washed several times, it's meaningless to talk about how many flowers there have been in the past." The man in brocade robe sitting next to him was slightly drunk, and immediately yelled away after hearing Hua Wujian's belittling.

Then someone chimed in: "Haha, well said, there are two roads in the south of the Yangtze River, and that's where we live and work."

"You lie, wait for the barbarian to come over again, and see if you still drink?"

"Let the barbarians come, even if you cross the river, you won't be able to cross the river. When the real horseshoe arrives, I will take the beauty to find safety."

"Hahaha, well said, today's wine, today's drunk."

The dancers on the stage kept dancing, chatting and laughing constantly during the dinner, every word you said to me seemed like the melody of the last days, Hua Wujian couldn't help but sneer.

Qin Yuezhi looked at his expression with a little worry, glanced at the cup that he brought to his lips again, and persuaded: "Don't drink it."

Hua Wujian put down the cup according to his words, and said to him in a very soft voice: "I just try to see who is in this banquet, now it seems that it is just that Tang Dynasty is at the end of his life, and he sings and dances to enjoy himself while enjoying himself Even in the prosperous age, the scumbags will be weakened by this kind of words and deeds."

"Taxation has been tight in successive years of fighting in the Jianghuai River. The government and wealthy businessmen have followed the example of the capital. There are too many actors supported by the Imperial Palace. It's okay to be older and not good enough. Naturally, they are reluctant to let go of young girls and they are unable to pay for them. The people at the banquet today are all They are going to spend money and silver to pick people away."

Qin Yuezhi's whole body was shaken, Hua Wujian's voice was obviously only heard by him, but it was deafening.

"The people who come here are not high in official titles but they are powerful. They are deceptive but they have enough people. Anyone who dares to sit on this seat must be prepared to bid. If you spend enough gold and silver, you can redeem people safely. It's a pity that according to what the woman said just now, the asking price is not low." The more Hua Wujian spoke, the more contemptuous she became, and after a moment of silence, she said, "Yuezhi, do you have enough silver taels?"

Qin Yuezhi was stunned by his question, and then smiled wryly: "I'm not good at accounting, what do I do with money?"

"Redeem a beauty and go back to be your wife." Hua Wujian couldn't help but leaned closer to him to tease, and then lowered his face again, "It's no different than Xijing who was born in the Holy See. Most of the actors and musicians here are lonely, so naturally they refuse to take them back to be wives and concubines." , what happens to her depends on what happens to the person who took her away. It was just a try..."

"Wujian, what do you want to do?" Qin Yuezhi opened his mouth and gestured towards him.

"It's not what I want to do, it's someone who wants to do something. Since you and I took this seat to rest and have a drink and a meal, you might as well help him." Hua Wujian blinked at him, and it was only here that he was smothered. Released the hot hand, put it back on his lap, then patted the back of his hand and said, "I won't open my mouth, you don't move."

People around were already staring sideways because of their intimate whispers, and some even stared at the Taoist priest dressed in white and salivated, making people feel as if they were sitting on pins and needles.

Qin Yuezhi nodded, watched him leave the table, and saw him passing behind the dignitaries who had no time to pay attention to him while tossing glasses and clinking glasses, followed Zou Shajin Fan and Gao Lingguan one after another, and was even more confused now.

I don't know how long it took, the singing and dancing on the stage were in full swing, and the audience was half drunk, the actors retreated temporarily as if they were about to start bidding, but unexpectedly, the musicians who had stopped for a moment started playing silk and bamboo to welcome the next wave of singing and dancing on stage.

Qin Yuezhi was still sitting steadily. He had no interest in singing and dancing at first, and only looked sideways at Huawujian. Unexpectedly, when his gaze swept across the stage, he instinctively felt that there was a familiar figure.On the stage, an official student wore a golden cloak on his shoulders, feathers in his hair, cupped his hands to his chin, raised his sleeves to cover his brows, and stepped on rigorous gait, his posture was full of brilliance, elegant and moving.

Qin Yuezhi froze.When he was a guest in Wanhua Valley earlier, Hua Wujian's uncle, who liked to collect strange things, sorted out old things and threw an unwanted sheet music to Hua Wujian. There were many talented people in Qingyan in the elegant place, and they loved this dance music. Several masters, brothers and sisters gathered together and immediately performed half of the Liyuan play.At that time, he was sitting on the side, Hua Wujian only took a few steps, flicked his sleeves, looking forward to the brilliance, the glow was reflected in his heart, it was hard to forget.

Although Qin Yuezhi was uncertain, he remained as quiet as ever, without even moving a finger, but his eyes peeped through the golden mask that covered half of his face, the facial features that had been traced thousands of times.

According to what Hua Wujian said at the beginning, the [-]-step Kemu and Luo Hanke who stole their teachers are far from enough compared to the dance music and singing in Chang'an Liyuan Jiaofang, but it is more than enough to go out and fool around.Sure enough, he gracefully stepped on his steps, spread his fan up and down and chanted, and the townspeople who felt fresh after watching Hu Xuanwu all praised him.

When he spreads his golden fan, it seems that the bustling Xijing, which is full of lights and lights all night long, is in front of him. The ten-mile-long street, the flags and flags of the restaurants, the buildings hundreds of feet high, the voices of people, and the drizzle are full of flowers and laughter; Diaolan Yudong is brightly lit, dancing, singing and singing are intoxicating.

The applause came one after another from the distinguished guests, gold, silver and jade beads were sprinkled together with the hairpins, and the bounties at the feet of the stage were more than double that of the popular Tuozhi Wu at that time.

Qin Yuezhi vaguely heard the intention in his euphemistic words, sat lonely on the corner seat, looked past the backup dancer who locked the middle man firmly, and saw that he raised his hand to take off the mask, and put rouge on the corner of his eyes. Buyi handed him a loving look from a long distance away, and couldn't help but feel his heart tighten.

The audience was packed, and with a smile on his face, Hua Wujian tossed the gauze he was wearing and rolled up the gold, silver and jewels on the ground in his hands, glanced at the guests present who were getting carried away, and asked slowly: "How much gold and silver did you get today?" But can you redeem the girls behind me?"

"Hahaha, only eight or nine dancers, of course!" Someone replied in a rough voice with Nephrite jade in his arms, "I just don't know, how much do you want?"

The guests all echoed and laughed, Qin Yuezhi felt a chill in his heart, and then he untied the sword and held it in his hand, but got another look from Wanhua.

Hua Wujian unhurriedly recruited the singing and dancing instructor, passed it to Zou Sha, and told him to count the finances slowly and carefully, then took out some powder from his sleeve and put it on the folding fan. Under the surprise eyes of everyone, Bai's arc of light suddenly said coldly: "Whoever can hear the second half of the song must be my fellow traveler."

What he said was ambiguous, causing people to nod left and right, and someone in the crowd quietly retreated as if they had been ordered.

His clear voice came back again, but this time it was deep and sad.After the orchid dance, the silk and bamboo rest, the night is late and the soldiers are approaching the capital, thousands of miles of rivers and mountains are shattered into dreams; iron cavalry, years of catastrophe, blood-stained bones of soldiers are buried, heroic souls are exchanged for timely rain; Prosperity, warming wine, a sacrifice to the bone, Yinggeyanyan dances and declines; Eyes no sorrow, carpe diem in time, steal a table for a day, no country, why come home and return.

After he sang quietly, the music faded away, the lights were still on, and the surroundings were completely silent, not only the guests were silent, but also the townspeople who watched the excitement under the stage lowered their heads, but some people felt the same way and started nodding and whispering softly.

The people seated on both sides lowered their heads or looked sideways, and some jumped up and scolded: "Which workshop are these officials and students? Are they here to smash the field!"

"Well, you're right." Hua Wujian closed her fan and smiled, "The war has not stopped, and taxes in the Jianghuai River are also tight, but some people have no law and betray the sages, and they are here to have fun and openly buy and sell officials. Ling, even in Chang'an in the heyday of Tang Dynasty, high-ranking officials and noble relatives often avoid people's eyes and ears, and they have never been so arrogant."

"You... who sent you here?" The other party was angry and annoyed, his face turned pale, "What evidence do you have?!" As he said, Wu Wei pushed aside the crowd and wanted to come up.

"So many people heard the gold and silver you gave and what you said just now, didn't they?" Hua Wujian's smile turned cold, he glanced around a few times, and sighed, "I won't waste time with you, I can do it myself."

Hua Wujian sprinkled a handful of powder, slammed a fan, and immediately raised a dazzling white fire dragon. The fireworks prepared behind the stage exploded, and the roar shook the whole stage.Then a few beggar-looking people jumped up from the surroundings, and knocked down the Wu Wei and servants who rushed up with their fists.

"Yuezhi, let's go." Hua Wujian dodged to the corner, taking advantage of the chaos to pull up the Taoist priest who had been nervous to death.

"Wujian, I... this..." Qin Yuezhi was a little relieved when he was caught by him, and was a little at a loss when he saw the out-of-control scene of the flames rising into the sky and the fireworks flying wildly.

Hua Wujian listened to the sound, raised his hand and flew out a few hidden needles, took Qin Yuezhi and walked around the stage together, whispering to him: "The disciples of the Beggar Clan have already prepared to attack. I know how many people I see. But They have a lot of guards, and the people behind the stage are all girls' families, so it would be bad if there were casualties.
