Shuoyun Feidu

Now that the new year is approaching, the Unsheltered Fort is also filled with a festive atmosphere. The servants in the fort come and go to clean the house, prepare new year's goods and other things, inside and outside, they are all busy.

That day, Beitang Rongdu was sitting by the window wearing a cotton-padded jacket, looking through the accounts. Just as Shen Hanyan was wearing a thick satin gown, he came over with Beitang Jiaqi in his arms. Seeing this, Beitang Rongdu put down the account books. , smiled and said: "Hey, our Luer is here... Good girl, let's see what Daddy gave you to play with." As he spoke, he picked up a few old-age gold coins from a green lacquer plate next to him, and To pass to Beitang Jiaqi to play with, the golden scorpions are only the size of pigeon eggs, and most of them are printed in the style of flowers, birds, fish and insects. They are all very exquisite. Ice the child." Beitang Rongdu sneered, put back a few golden pegs, and said with a smile: "I forgot this one."

While patting the baby girl in his arms, Shen Hanyan sized up Beitang Rongdu, and said, "It's already the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, and we still need to check the account." Taking a sip from the teacup, he said: "Han Yan, our income this year is really not small, not to mention anything else, only the Huaishufang has earned me a lot of money." Shen Hanyan smiled and said: "You look like this, you are really a money addict." Beitang Rongdu kissed him vigorously on the face, and laughed shyly: "I'm not a bachelor now. I want to support my wife and children. If I don't earn What about the money? After our daughter leaves the court, we have to prepare a dowry for her."

The two hugged their daughter, talking and laughing, and then on New Year's Day, Beitang Rongdu got up early in the morning before dawn, dressed and washed, put on layers of clothes, covered with golden silk Heavily embroidered Jin Yunji clothes, Shen Hanyan next to him was also dressed in a Chinese robe with a high crown, a jade belt and a light fur, and he was completely dressed up. After washing up, he ate something to pad his stomach. At dawn, the two of them went out together hand in hand , got on the warm sedan chair, and walked towards Fusu Hall.

As the sun rose and the sun was warm, Beitang Rongdu lifted the curtain to look at the scenery outside, and said to Shen Hanyan next to him: "By this time next year, Jiaqi will be able to come out with the two of us." Shen Hanyan Straighten out the long hanging jade beads silk ribbon on the crown for him, and said with a smile: "When the banquet starts, I will naturally take her out, but fortunately she is not troublesome." Pulling a huge waxy and fluttering emerald jade card hanging on his chest, he said: "I have worn five layers of dresses today, and now I feel a little hot... that's not counting, just the clothes on my body and head. These things may add up to twenty catties." Shen Hanyan said with a smile: "After the ceremony, after the ceremony, just go to the back and change clothes." Beitang Rongdu nodded, and said: " Fortunately, today, it didn’t snow.”

The warm sedan walked all the way to the square in front of the Fusu Hall, and saw that there were guards of honor, deacons, musical instruments and other things on both sides. The surroundings were already full of people at this time. From a distance, it was almost dark and overwhelming. Beitang Rong After getting off the sedan chair, Shen Hanyan and Shen Hanyan walked toward the front seat, and when the rest of the people saw him coming, they all bowed to get out of the way.

The people stood outside for an unknown how long before they suddenly heard a heavy bell ringing, the sound was heard far away, and the square fell silent for a moment, as many people did not hear anything, only heard the kneeling boots With the sound of rustling shoes, everyone bowed down together, and said in a long voice: "...Welcome to the Lord of the Fort!" The bell rang again, and it rang seven times in a row. Far and near, slowly walking towards this side.

Beitang Zunyue was wearing a purple-gold suanni gown with large sleeves. The drooping lines of the robe were as smooth as running water, without even a trace of extra folds. As he walked gracefully, the wide sleeves fluttered with the breeze. The ground moves lightly, the waist is straight, there is a lingering look of deep arrogance and disdain between the eyebrows, thin lips, all the excellences in the long blood of the Beitang family have been obtained in this man. Full inheritance.

The red brocade and golden carpet is long, spreading all the way from the square, like a golden dragon, to the front of the high hall. Beitang Zun stepped on the soft thick carpet and walked slowly in it. The crowd bowed their heads to show awe, and Beitang Rongdu also knelt upright under the high steps with respectful expressions.

However, when Beitang Zun Yue came to the front of the steps, he stopped, and then walked to the left, standing in front of Beitang Rongdu who was kneeling to meet him. The young man was dressed in a formal dress, with his wide sleeves stretched flat on the ground. Like a huge butterfly, because Beitang Zunyue lowered his head, he could only see the other party's long distant mountain eyebrows and dense eyelashes like butterfly wings, which were gorgeous and soul-stirring.Beitang Zunyue's heart turned a thousand times, stretched out his hand, and said with a low laugh: "...get up, and go up with me."——

Regardless of power or wealth in this world, I am willing to share with you...

Beitang Rongdu raised his head when he heard the words, and saw Beitang Zunyue standing in front of him. The lower end of his robe was embroidered with the pattern of clouds and thousands of miles. The crystal luster, the golden light of the bright yellow sun behind him, blurred the outline of the man, almost as if he was a god, Beitang Rongdu looked at it intently, and saw Beitang Zunyue's eyes were kind, his heart suddenly warmed, only slightly After hesitating for a while, after a pause, he reached out his hand without hesitation, and held Beitang Zun Yue's warm hand. However, as soon as the five fingers were retracted, they grabbed the young man's right hand and pulled him up. The two of them half-raised their hems, walked steadily up the high long steps step by step, stood at the top, stood side by side, and accepted the congratulations of everyone.

Kneeling down below, like a thick black cloud, everyone kowtowed and said loudly: "...Fortress Lord Xianfu!" The voice of the crowd was like thunder, rolling across the sky in a rumbling line, piercing the tranquility of winter , Beitang Rongdu stared at the crowd below, his heart was suddenly filled with a subtle feeling unique to being above all living beings, his right hand gently licked the hem of the clothes on his side, thoughtfully, only hearing Beitang Tang Zun Yue said: "Get up."——

Power, so moving...

After the ceremony, Beitang Rongdu went to change his clothes and changed the heavy dress. Someone came to invite him for a while, saying that the Tianrong Room had already set up a play, so Beitang Rongdu took a sedan chair and hurriedly went to the Tianrong Room , When you enter the room, you will see a room full of Chinese robes and warm shoes, crowded with people, and the beitang zunyue sits in the middle of it, and Shen Hanyan sits at the lower right hand side, surrounded by brocade curtains and colorful screens. Stacked, all the people with a certain status in the unsheltered castle are lined up in order from the bottom according to their status, straight to the corridor of the main hall, and a full table is set up. Beitang Rongdu went to his own on the left. Sitting in the seat, he lifted his clothes and sat down, and then smiled at Beitang Zun: "I don't know what kind of play is being rehearsed today?" Beitang Zun raised his eyebrows slightly, and said: "Just watch." Then lightly clapped his palms, and in the hall, the sound of pipa whispering suddenly sounded.

At the moment, a group of actors, male or female, will perform enthusiastically, but it is not an opera. Beitang Rongdu only watched it for a moment, then clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Isn't this the "Legend of the Condor Heroes" I talked about before? It is said that there will be a shadow puppet show in the future, but I didn't expect to make this!" Bei Tangzun saw that he was very happy, his brows and eyes were as vivid as spring water, he couldn't help but a little bit of color appeared in his eyes, he just felt a smile for Bomei A little thought, but it was nothing, Beitang Rongdu didn't know what he was thinking at the moment, he just picked up a plate of nuts and ate slowly, while watching the performance with a smile.

When the performance was exciting, everyone was fascinated by watching it. Beitang Rongdu kowtowed melon seeds and said to Shen Hanyan: "Jiaqi is not here. Although she can't understand these things, I'm afraid she likes watching the excitement. " Shen Hanyan looked at the stage, and said in his mouth: "The child is still young, the gongs and drums are noisy here, and there are many people, I'm afraid it will startle her." Beitang Rongdu nodded: "Yes." Said Then, I added more wine for Beitang Zun.

When Sishi was about to pass, he took a short break from the play and waited for the banquet. Beitang Rongdu looked at Kong'er and went to wash his face in the small side mansion behind. , and saw Shen Hanyan walking in, Beitang Rongdu stretched out his arms to ask someone to take off his outer jacket, turned his head and said to Shen Hanyan: "There are too many people, and I haven't had a few glasses of wine yet." Well, it's so hot that I'm almost sweating." Shen Hanyan also came over to wash his face, took the towel handed over by the maid, wiped his hands and face, and then said with a smile: "The scene just now, It's very good." Beitang Rongdu changed into a thinner lotus-colored round-neck straight-fit dragon and silver silk robe, and said with a smile: "That's not easy, since you like to watch it, you can ask people to watch it with us at any time. Just act in the court."

Shen Hanyan smiled, and went to help Beitang Rongdu to support the purple gold crown on his head, straightened the tassels hanging down on both sides, and said: "Today, you have to socialize all day, I think you will be impatient "Beitang Rongdu said lightly: "Forget it, it's only once a year or so. Chinese New Year is always more lively. Let's just eat, drink and have fun. It's just that there are too many people, and it seems somewhat boring." Well, I suddenly thought of my daughter who was still in the Bihai Pavilion, so I patted my forehead and said: "By the way, I forgot to tell you not to set off firecrackers in the pavilion. Now the wedding season is still young, and it's not even full moon. If you set off a firecracker It's good to scare her." As he said that, he was about to order someone to send a message back to Bihai Pavilion.

Shen Hanyan stopped him, and said with a smile: "Come on, come on, if you remember everything, I'm afraid even the food will be cold, I have already ordered it to go down, this year's New Year, no firecrackers are allowed near the pavilion Tell everyone to go to a place farther away." Beitang Rongdu was relieved, and said with a smile: "You should be more careful." He also said: "When the small banquet is held in the evening, then ask people to take the children to the table. At that time Most of them are female relatives, it doesn't matter, save that there are all of us men here, who drink and order, and the whole room is full of alcohol, so it can't spoil her." Shen Hanyan untied the hanging beads around his neck , nodded and said: "This is natural."

After that, there was a banquet, a large banquet was set up in the Unsheltered Fort, and there were countless delicious wines and delicacies on the table. There was still a musician who plucked the strings and plucked the strings, and the silk and bamboo were leisurely. The maid took a golden bottle full of wine, walked up to Beitang Zunyue, knelt down, served the wine, and said with a smile: "Since it is the Spring Festival, my son wishes my father good health, I have no shelter For thousands of years." Beitang Zunyue took the golden bottle from him, drank the fine wine inside, then stretched out his hand to help Beitang Rongdu get up, and said with a low smile, "My son, get up."

Afterwards, Shen Hanyan also offered wine, and then a group of high-ranking and powerful people in Unsheltered Fort also stepped forward to toast one by one. , That's all, after that, the banquet officially started, everyone sat at the table, chatted happily, toasted and exchanged cups, exchanged cups, and was very interested, and there was an endless scene of prosperity and prosperity.

Beitang Rongdu is the young master of Unsheltered Fortress, so everyone can't help toasting to him, plus he has recently added a daughter, so congratulations are naturally indispensable. He didn't refuse, so even though he was a good drinker, he couldn't stand the crowd after all. After most of the banquet was over, his face was still a little hot, and the corners of his eyes were stained with drunkenness. With wine on his face, he had a graceful appearance, his cheeks were dyed like peach blossoms, showing his beauty, he couldn't help admiring it, but he didn't want others to see Beitang Rongdu's description, so he said: " Since you feel a little drunk, go and lie down in the room." As he spoke, he ordered a few people to take him in.

The corners of Beitang Rongdu's eyes were full of sweetness, and he was indeed drunk, so after listening to Beitang Zunyue's words, he smiled and said in a low voice: "Since Dad said so, I'll go and lie down inside for a while. There will be a banquet tonight..."

All of a sudden, Beitang Rongdu got up and left the table, and entered a small room inside, which was exquisitely arranged, with a few bottles of seasonal flowers and one or two small bonsai dotted there. After burning the incense, the room was warm and fragrant. Several maids quickly spread a wolf fur mattress on a long couch for people to rest on, and brought a big red incense soft pillow and a thick blanket. He took off his coat and boots for Beitang Rong Dukuan, and put a large copper foot stove on the foot of the couch.Beitang Rongdu was leaning on the couch, and ordered someone to come in to play the qin. After a while, a beautiful woman came holding the qin, saluted, and then sat down in front of a qin table beside him. Beitang Rongdu half-closed his eyes , drunkenly, said: "...no matter what the tune is, just pick the one you are good at playing." After hearing this, the woman flicked her plain hand, and began to play babble.

The melody was melodious, Beitang Rongdu lay crooked on the couch, and gradually fell asleep without knowing it, the woman didn't stop, she just continued to play the strings, and changed the melody to a softer "Like a Dream Order". After a while, someone came into the room without a sound. The woman accidentally raised her head and saw the man. She hurriedly stopped the piano, and Yingying knelt down. The man waved his hand casually, beckoning her to go out. Seeing the woman, she quietly retreated. go down.

Beitang Venerable walked closer to the long couch, a slight tenderness appeared in the corners of his eyes, and he saw Beitang Rongdu sleeping soundly, with black hair and beautiful light, and a face that was originally as white as transparent. Right now, it is as if rouge is applied, the red is very cute, the eyelashes are thick and long, like two small fans, the soft and thin lips like petals are slightly parted, revealing the snow-white teeth like broken jade , as he exhaled lightly from his lips, a scent of wine lingered faintly... The more Beitang Zun watched intently from the side, he felt more and more in love with him, couldn't hold back for a while, and leaned over his lips He kissed lightly, but Beitang Rongdu just didn't realize it, and fell into a deep sleep.

Under Beitang Zunyue's kiss, Shangzi was still reminiscing about the softness of the young man's lips, but he saw that Beitang Rongdu was sleeping crookedly, and the blanket on his body was also in a mess, so he gently hugged Beitang Rongdu tightly. Straighten it up, put it flat so that he can lie down comfortably, and cover him with a blanket. Just at this time, Shen Hanyan walked in. When he saw this scene, he couldn't help but suddenly touched his heart. He was a little taken aback.

Beitang Zunyue didn't raise his head, just stood up, and said: "...Du'er drank a lot, you take care of him." Shen Hanyan lowered his hand and said: "Castle Master, don't worry, Han Yan will save it." Tang Zun Yue didn't say much, and went out alone.

When Beitang Rongdu woke up, he saw Shen Hanyan sitting next to him, quietly reading a book. Seeing that he was awake, he asked, "...Do you want tea?" Putting it aside, he got up and poured the tea, and handed it to Beitang Rongdu. Beitang Rongdu took a sip from his hand, and then saw that Shen Hanyan's complexion was pale and his brows were uncomfortable, and he seemed a little gloomy, as if As if something was on his mind, he asked: "What's the matter Han Yan, I see that you are in a bad mood..." Shen Hanyan remained silent, and then saw that Beitang Rongdu asked more urgently, so he reluctantly asked Smiling, he said: "Just now when I came in, I saw the Castle Lord covering you with a blanket...The Castle Lord treats you really well."

Hearing what he said, Beitang Rongdu didn't understand what he meant for a moment, so he said casually: "Is that my father? Naturally treat me well." Shen Hanyan said softly: "Beitang, don't be in the midst of blessings and don't know Fu... If my father is like this, I..." Beitang Rongdu immediately understood when he heard this, knowing that the young man was feeling sad about his life experience, and he was unhappy, so he softened his tone and said: "Fool, think about this What to do." Shen Hanyan's complexion was livid, and he sighed slightly: "If I have my father who loves me so much... I will do whatever I want." Beitang Rongdu knew his loneliness, and felt sorry for him for a moment, and took the young man into his arms. into his arms, and comforted him: "You man, what do you still want to do? Could it be that I am not your relative? Although you have lost your parents, you still have me. Besides, we even have a daughter now. You are lost. You have lost your parents, but you still have me to love you and love you, right?"

Hearing his gentle tone and caring words, Shen Hanyan felt touched for a moment and burst into tears unknowingly, saying: "...Beitang, if I can be like you for the rest of my life, I would rather live a short life for three years." Ten years is good." Beitang Rongdu looked moved, stroked the young man's hair on the sideburns and said: "Bah, bah, you are not allowed to talk like this! People who celebrate the New Year don't know taboos, what about life and death, we naturally It's been together for a long time." Shen Hanyan had tenderness in his eyes, and tenderness in his tone, he hugged Beitang Rongdu's shoulders, and said softly: "...um."
