Ballad of Tianmen

The weather in Pucheng is changeable, the autumn rain lasted for quite a while, and when the sky cleared completely, it was already October.

The sun shines through the window lattice and falls on the rattan chair.There are no flowering branches in the vase on the table. One of the two sides is a stalk of green bamboo with a few pieces of wolfberry, and the other is a few stalks of fine grass with two branches of thorns.At the entrance are two potted plants with spiraling branches.

Feng Jing took back the golden needle, and lifted up the thin quilt for Yin Wuwu, covering her legs again.

"Actually, your efforts are in vain." Yin Wuyi said very casually, her eyes fell on Feng Jing's face, she saw thin beads of sweat on her forehead, and the corners of her mouth curled up a little helplessly.I am very clear about my own situation, but it is only with a little hope, so I agree to seal the mirror and give acupuncture, hoping that one day I can stand up, just like I used to, standing in the red robe and silver armor. Feihuan's side.

"That's not necessarily the case." The brilliance in Feng Jing's eyes cannot be ignored. Yin Wuwu looked at her expression and felt a little dazed, but hoped that there was a reason for her self-confidence.

Because of the need for needles, Feng Jing seldom drank alcohol recently, minus the drunkenness on his face, his whole temperament was different from before.She always liked those loose robes, and her hair was simply tied up with bamboo hairpins.Taking a closer look at her face this time, it is different from the gracefulness of ordinary women, it looks a bit more handsome.It doesn't matter if you take a look at it, but if you take a few more glances, you will be attracted by her pure eyes.As for Canglan, Yin Wuwu hadn't seen much of that person, she was very beautiful, but her eyes were far from the calm and breezy look, she was similar to Chu Feihuan, she was full of calculations in her heart, more or less manifested in the face.

"You stay here often, don't you want to see Cang Lan? It seems that you haven't heard anything from you these days, so I can bring her a pastry." Yin Wuyi shook her head, dismissing the distracting thoughts in her mind, Looking at Feng Jing who was lazily sitting on the side, he asked.

"Speaking of this, I'm angry." Flipping through the scroll quickly, Feng Jing stood up and stuffed it back.Walking around the room with hands behind their backs, he finally calmed down, and complained, "Bring the pastry, she ate it with that annoying Gu Huaizhou, why should I take advantage of that kid, he has to make it himself .”

"Cang Lanming knows that I don't like Gu Huaizhou, and I'm so close to him. Cang Lan must like Gu Huaizhou." Speaking of this, Feng Jing's tone seemed dull, his eyes gradually turned red, and he said with a bit of jealousy "Earlier, this Gu Huaizhou became Minister of the Book, and Cang Lan often praised him for being young and promising. Now he is only 25 years old, and he is sitting on the position of General. The General is newly added, and his rank is like that of the three princes. Your Highness may have thought about it, but I still feel very unconvinced. The dead scholar can do nothing but talk on paper!"

"Then what is Gu Huaizhou's background?"

"People from Pucheng came from a poor background. After entering Xuancheng Academy, they attached themselves to that old man Feng Lin. All in all, he is my enemy!" Feng Jing snorted and said. "I don't know why Cang Lan has his eyes on him? I can also talk about it. Forget it, let's not mention this crap."

"Then Cang Lan's background?"

"I don't know about that. I only know that her parents were murdered by a traitor. His Highness saved her. She has been with His Highness all along. She never talked about it with me."

"Is that so-"

"Girl, are you here?" Yin Wuyi seemed to have something to say, but a knock on the door suddenly interrupted her.Turning her head to look at the half-closed door, seeing the green skirt, she replied softly, "Come in."

"Your Highness ordered the pastries to be delivered." The green-clothed girl came in without raising her head, she just placed a few plates of pastries on the table, then bowed her head and backed out.

Yin Wuxin picked up a piece of hibiscus cake, looked at it for a long time with lowered eyebrows, and then put it in his mouth.

Feng Jing grabbed the pastry unceremoniously and stuffed it into her mouth. The previous displeasure seemed to have been forgotten. While eating, she said vaguely, "Where did that little girl come from? She looks so strange."

"His Royal Highness brought it from the manor, it's called Ruxiang." Yin Wuyi shook his head.Let Chu Feihuan toss about.She has never been close to these people, and it's fine to talk less and settle down. "But she stays with His Highness most of the time."

"Could it be the new flowers picked by His Highness, afraid that she would be bullied in the mansion, so he brought her to the academy to take care of her?" Feng Jing speculated.Seeing that Yin Wuwu didn't respond, she asked curiously, "Speaking of which, aren't you angry? Your Highness has so many confidantes."

"Why should I be angry?" Yin Wuwu asked calmly.

"That's why you shouldn't ask me." Feng Jing said with a smile after swallowing the pastry in her mouth and hastily pouring another cup of tea.

----------

The clouds scattered and the sun was low.

On Yujie Avenue, a restaurant with red lanterns stands quietly there.

The servants downstairs welcome and see off the drinkers.

Xie Tianqing leaned on the railing of the restaurant, put his head up and took the last drop of wine in the jug, and finally put his hands on the railing, his whole body seemed to be on the verge of falling.

After all, this city of Pu is the capital of the king of Chu, and those gangsters also like to rush here, thinking about which official princes they want to be a guest.It's not uncommon for people to make trouble in the restaurant, but this time, there is also an inexplicable commotion underneath.I don't know which family's son and grandson offended the knight in the rivers and lakes, and the knight drew his sword and was about to cut off the head of the son in brocade clothes.

With a sound of "touch--", the wine jug that was being held upside down flew out, and by coincidence, it landed on the drunken brash man.

"That bastard dared to beat the old man, he's getting impatient, isn't he?" Throwing out the young master who was in his hand like throwing trash, wiping the blood on his forehead, the reckless man raised his head, his face stern shouted.

"Your grandfather and me." Xie Tianqing jumped down from upstairs, holding the sword and squinting at the big man.The murderous aura around him didn't restrain, but let out instead, the wind blew his hair, and a tattoo appeared on his messy face.That big man was also an ignorant guy, he wanted to fight Xie Tianqing, but he was kicked in the heart in the end, he struggled several times before getting up, and fled cursing.

"My lord!" The nobleman's rescuers also came at this time, a group of soldiers pushed away the surrounding onlookers, and carefully helped their master up from the ground.

"Useless waste!" Kicking the captain of the guard, the young master patted the dust on his robe, pushed away the people in front of him, and walked in front of Xie Tianqing, his eyes rolled around, pretending Cupping his hands, he said, "I'm Li Zongsi, thank you for this hero's rescue. Can you do me a favor and have a drink with me?" Brash man, however, now pretending to be respectful, the intention in his heart is to take this hero for his own use, and it will be safer to go in and out of these romantic venues in the future if someone protects them.

"It's disrespectful." Xie Tianqing laughed loudly, made a gesture of invitation, and followed Li Zongsi into the room.

A place of sensuality, a luxury for your son.In the private room of the restaurant, several beautiful women sat on the laps of those noble gentlemen, with wine in their embroidered shoes, and those people even laughed and drank it.

"Master Taiwei, you are here." One of the young men in red smiled, pointed at Xie Tianqing, and asked, "Where did you find this prisoner? Your taste is getting more and more special!"

"What nonsense!" Li Zongsi said after glaring at his friends, "This is a hero!"

"Hahaha, hero, hero! Are you going to throw the pot?"

Throwing pots and cuju, cockfighting and horse fighting, games for frivolous teenagers.After hearing those nonsense, Xie Tianqing's expression remained unchanged, and he glanced around.I saw six copper pots in the middle of the field, filled with red beans.A woman delivered six arrows to Xie Tianqing's hands.

With a disdainful smile on his face, Xie Tianqing turned around, but with his back to those copper pots, six arrows went out at the same time. "Peng—peng—peng—" six sounds in succession, after the arrow fell into the copper pot, the copper pot was blown apart by the force, and the red beans rolled all over the ground, which stunned those frivolous youngsters.

"Come, come, heroes, please take your seat!"

"I don't know what to call a hero?"

"..."

Wine and meat friends are talking about the friendship that is drunk on the wine table.Xie Tianqing seemed to be used to the behavior of those children from the noble family, and hearing their domineering things, on the contrary, he was amused for a few times.After drinking for three rounds, Li Zongsi patted him on the shoulder and said: "The academy doesn't accept even a strong man like you! You can come to my Taiwei's mansion in the future, and I recommend you to be a general!"
