Started with a green hat for Verlaine

in the real world.

Time will neither speed up nor slow down, it never waits for dull people.

Oscar Wilde returned to the apartment and sent flowers as usual to add vitality to the lifeless room, but this time he found that Ma Shengqiu was also staring at the flames in the fireplace in a daze.

In this weather, the temperature emitted by the fireplace will make people sweat.

His first reaction was to walk over and "swish" to open the curtains and open the windows to reduce the suffocation in the room, and to have a full view of the evening scenery outside.George Bernard Shaw occasionally haunts the bustling pedestrian street, performing whistles for free. When a teenager sees an apartment with an open window, he smiles knowingly and blows a classic opera whistle to entertain the drinking Irish.

"Oscar..."

Under normal circumstances, Oscar Wilde seldom listened to his name being called by the other party.

Orientals always have a special reservedness.

"If there is a couple... destined to be separated..." Ma Shengqiu also stared at the flames, as if looking at the burning love, "Should outsiders support or oppose?"

Oscar Wilde Seeking Truth: "Love is the private matter of the person involved."

Ma Shengqiu also said: "If they are together, will they hurt innocent women and children?"

Oscar Wilde keenly recognized the truth: one partner had a family.

His heart paled with horror.

Qiu fell in love with a man with a family? !

No!No!Oscar Wilde observed Aso Qiuya, and did not see the bud of love, "Although I don't know the customs in other countries, in our Europe, a respectable nobleman who does not find a lover after marriage is considered a A disgraceful thing."

Oscar Wilde disregarded himself perfectly and slandered the European aristocrats.

After all, he has no title of nobility.

Ma Shengqiu also looked stagnant, and turned his head to take a deep look at Wilde. The human rights and marriage equality advocated by the West are like jokes among the aristocratic class in the [-]th century. Even the queen is not necessarily able to have a harmonious marriage.

So far, Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom is the only queen to have a happy marriage.

Well... the man died ten years ago.

"If they are together...they will experience social criticism, marriage breakdown, loss of face, lack of money, age difference, personality conflict..."

Ma Shengqiu also talked about many conflicts among couples one after another, as if they would say goodbye to each other in less than three days together, which is intolerable, and was repeatedly whipped by major news and public opinion.

Oscar Wilde laughed, and he was so stubborn the first time he saw Ma Shengqiu.

It hardly seemed like an enlightened Oriental.

He said.

"Are those two happy when they are together?"

When Arthur Rimbaud and Paul Verlaine were together, Paul Verlaine didn't want to go home, he didn't want to see his wife and children, he felt the most relaxed and happy life with Arthur Rimbaud, their feelings were genuine Start with talent and be loyal to talent.

This unlucky love has been filmed into stage plays and movies, and it is widely known in homosexual love.

There was a ripple of sadness in Aso Qiuya's eyes.

Ma Shengqiu didn't answer any more.

He stretched out his hand to cover his throat, and the scar that severed his neck reminded him all the time——

[Don't forget that you are a third party. 】

It is often said that people love each other until they fall in love with each other. Ma Shengqiu also experienced emotional pain and found it difficult to fall in love with others. If Arthur Rimbaud's letter hadn't stimulated him, he couldn't believe that he would have a strong opposition. The thought of Arthur Rimbaud meeting Paul Verlaine made him extremely uncomfortable, as if a nail had been knocked into his heart, every inch was deep and painful.

He said to himself: 【That is Lan Tang's parallel space-time counterpart! 】

Another voice from the bottom of his heart retorted: [Can you tell whose peer Qing Lantang is? 】

Aso Qiu also liked Arthur Rimbaud's talent at first, and his uninhibited character like the wind. He hated conservative, weak, and indecisive Paul Verlaine!This love and dislike didn't fundamentally change until the moment of Ma Shengqiuya's death. He insisted that he loved Lan Tang, but he didn't want to think about Lan Tang's true identity.

Aso Qiuya's throat was dry, and he took several deep breaths to suppress his fluttering heartbeat.

Wilde is right, he has no right to interfere with other people's love.

In this world, Rimbaud and Verlaine are together, it is a predestined love, he has finally escaped from the shackles of feelings, how can he be involved again.

"Haha..." Ma Shengqiu laughed hoarsely, "I respect their choice."

Even though, there seemed to be something cracking.

……

In Paris, among the families of wealthy merchants.

Ever since Paul Verlaine received the letter from Charvelle, his excitement was uncontrollable.

"That's a genius!"

"At 22, by God, there will be an extra fine poet in Paris!"

"Honey, I invited him to our house as a guest. He should be on the train coming. I will pick him up tomorrow. Remember to tell Mrs. Motel that guests are coming at home. Let the kitchen cook a pot of hot Onion soup!"

Mathilte is wearing a long lace dress with half-exposed breasts, which makes many women jealous. After giving birth, her figure is still in shape, just like a lady who never goes out.Since she was pregnant, Mathilte has raised her baby at home with peace of mind. After George was born, she took care of her son at home and lived with her parents. Her father recently went out of town.

Seeing that her husband was in a good mood, Matilda was puzzled for a while, and agreed softly: "No problem, the family will prepare food and drinks for guests."

What Paul Verlaine needed was not plain agreement, but empathetic understanding.

He emphasized: "Matilda, that is a poet that even I admire!"

Matilda was confused: "Is this Mr. Rimbaud famous? Why have I never heard of his name in Paris?"

Paul Verlaine was discouraged and pressed his aching forehead, "I told you, he is from the provinces, not from Paris. You can't use fame to measure a person's talent."

Matilda disagreed.

If this Monsieur Rimbaud had the reputation of Victor Hugo, she immediately entertained him.

A poor country poet.

"Paul, I don't understand the literary world." Matilda straightened her husband's clothes, trying to be a good and educated wife, "It's no use telling me these things, I will tell my mother and servants, and prepare a sumptuous dinner tomorrow. It won't make you lose face."

Only then did Paul Verlaine have a smile on his face.

Marrying Matilda was the most correct decision in his life. His wife was born rich and beautiful, and she didn't flirt with each other, which gave him a good environment to write with peace of mind.

In Paris, many men envied him for marrying a gentle and sensible woman.

Even... There is often a lack of topics between him and her.

On April [-]th, it rained lightly in Paris, and the mud on the ground became heavier. Arthur Rimbaud ran off the train alone without a salute, walked out along the crowd, and rushed to the train station with a fellow on the way. When the gentlemen pass by, they deliberately make faces to scare each other.

The other party's appearance is not ordinary stupid.

[I didn't recognize me. 】

Arthur Rimbaud laughed loudly, shook off the dazed Verlaine, and stepped into Paris again.

The flames of war have been extinguished.

People's hearts still retain the heat of last year.

Arthur Rimbaud did not immediately go to Verlaine's house, he went to the Champs-Elysees Notre-Dame Avenue, where Victor Hugo's apartment was located.

As soon as he entered the door, the maid hired by Hugo's family called "Mr. Rimbaud" affectionately, and then brought him a towel for wiping his hair and asked him if he had ironed his wet coat. Arthur Rimbaud quickly refused and went to Meet Mr. Hugo.

Victor Hugo is sorting letters, scissors, seals and other items are placed on the table, regardless of his leisurely appearance, he was elected as a representative of the National Assembly last year and returned to the French political circle.

Arthur Rimbaud's patience was short: "Mr. Hugo, good day, did he reply?"

When Victor Hugo saw this little friend of Charleville, he said with a smile, "He's back."

Arthur Rimbaud was pleasantly surprised that the letter he sent before he ran away from home was useful!

Victor Hugo said: "However, he does not plan to come to France for the time being, and apologized to me in the letter, but he did not mention you." His words made Arthur Rimbaud very angry, and Victor Hugo Guo changed the subject, "Did you come to Paris to develop in the literary world?"

Arthur Rimbaud said: "I have this idea, but I want to rely on my own efforts."

The implication: he didn't want to use Victor Hugo's connections.

Victor Hugo twitched his brows. Children are naive and straightforward, and they won't understand the benefits of adults' hard work in paving the way unless they hit their heads and break their blood.

Although he appreciated the spirituality of Rimbaud's poetry, Victor Hugo respected his opinion.

"Do you have a place to stay?"

"Yes, I will be a guest at a friend's house, and he will arrange a place for me."

"Who is that—?"

"Poet of Paris, Paul Verlaine."

Arthur Ramblad said the name of the other party aloud, and added: "I met him at the Paris Commune, but he didn't meet me. Both Francois and I think he is a good person."

Victor Hugo nodded, and the poets who participated in the Paris Commune greatly increased their favor.

"If you have trouble, you can find me. When I am away, tell the servant, the servant will receive you, and you will not lose your resting place in Paris."

"Um...thank you..."

Arthur Rimbaud was very awkward. He had just refused Hugo's offer, and now he was being taken care of again.

Victor Hugo clapped his shoulder: "Don't be shy when you come to Paris, be bold!"

Arthur Rimbaud blushed: "Yes!"

This sentence established his arrogance of arrogance in Paris.

Want to be famous.

Talent and personality are a must in Paris!

Victor Hugo asked intentionally or unintentionally: "Rimbaud, have you ever met an Oriental?"

Knowing that Mr. Hugo was obsessed with oriental culture, Arthur Rimbaud shook his head.

After the blond boy left, Victor Hugo wrote to his pen pal: [Dear Mr. Wang Qiu, I was very surprised when I found out that you are from the East. In the letter, I exchanged the creation skills of ink painting, oh, don’t worry about that kid, he came to Paris and just met me, I believe he can make a difference in Paris. 】

Because Arthur Rimbaud didn't mention secrecy, Victor Hugo told Ma Shengqiu backhandedly.

It is not a good thing for children to run away from home.

Victor Hugo was very curious, what is the relationship between the two?

【Ran Bo said he didn't know any Orientals. How did you know about this child?Is it convenient to talk to me?I think it contains an interesting story...]

This letter gave Ma Shengqiu a reassurance.

With Mr. Hugo, Arthur Rimbaud would not be unaccompanied and living on the streets when he came to Paris.

Under the butterfly effect, Ma Shengqiu also had a better idea: "Perhaps, Rimbaud won't know Verlaine again after being taught by Mr. Hugo? The three-dimensional Mr. Hugo is a standard straight man."

Murphy's Law: If there is a chance that things will go wrong, no matter how small the chances are, it will happen.

Rimbaud happily went to Verlaine's house where Aso could not see him.

Tianlei set fire to the ground, and there was only one meeting.

Countdown to Matilda's disaster.
