The most unlucky crossing in history

Zhong Qiyun's action was subconscious, but today he and Xie Wenyuan seemed to be getting closer, he forgot some sense of propriety for a while, at first he didn't feel anything wrong, when the people who were sitting nearby were all looking this way intentionally or unintentionally, Zhong Qiyun The hand holding Xie Wenyuan was released like an electric shock, and the chest that was slightly pressed against Xie Wenyuan's back also retreated.

The cool touch of the fingertips still lingered, Zhong Qiyun blinked, and his hand quietly dropped to his side, not daring to move, and he smiled slowly when he was young: "I'm thinking about it, let's get out of the fire After a while, the body is still not healed, but we can't make the disease worse because of drinking too much for a while, let's not drink alcohol these days."

Xie Wenyuan gave Zhong Qiyun a funny look, and replied: "Thank you, Brother Zhong, for your concern, but what I have in this cup is tea, not wine."

Seeing Zhong Qiyun's face froze, Xie Wenyuan's smile deepened a bit.

Zhong Qiyun coughed lightly in embarrassment, touched the tip of his nose, and said, "All right."

Xie Wenyuan looked at Zhong Qiyun, thought for a while and asked, "The injury on your back..."

Zhong Qiyun understood Xie Wenyuan's meaning, "It's not bad, I can persevere."

Xie Wenyuan nodded after hearing this, and wanted to say something more, but there were too many people talking here, so he stopped talking, and turned around to chat with Que Jiangcai and others.

Qu Xiao, who was at the same table with Zhong Qiyun, paid attention to the interaction between the two, and didn't ask much.

When I was young, after Hu Ningyun's welcome speech was over, the hall and cousins ​​of the Hu family over there gave the birthday gift that had been prepared a long time ago.

The first one was Hu Ningyun's cousin Hu Ninggen. He was more than ten years older than Hu Ningyun. His two sons were twins. Now they can run and dance. Today, he led the two sons to the On the stage, Hu Ningyun was presented with a gold and jade peacock lamp. The lamp was decorated with gorgeous carvings, and the peacock's tail was so lifelike that it was so beautiful that anyone who saw it would know that it was worth a lot.

"Cousin, this is really precious..." As he said, Hu Ningyun was about to decline.

Seeing this, Hu Ning even avoided it, and said with a smile: "Hey, Yun'er's 16th birthday is a big day today. Originally, as a brother, I also wanted my family not to see these vain gifts, and I also knew that my sister didn't want these things, but, Hu Ning shook his head even more while talking, and said helplessly: "This gift is sent by your sister-in-law from all sides. She can say that if I can't send it out today, I will not be allowed to enter the house. My sister will take pity on this one." Brother."

Hu Ning is even more "fearful of internal affairs" but he is well-known in the city of Hangzhou. Hu Ningyun always jokes about himself when he sees his cousins.

Shi couldn't help but chuckled, "Is sister-in-law okay? The house is too busy these days, and Yun'er didn't go to see it."

"Recently, she has gotten a little heavier, so it's inconvenient to come to see you. You know her temperament, and she cares about your husband-in-law..."

As he spoke, he looked up to where Xie Wenyuan was in the audience, and seeing Hu Ningyun's face flushed slightly, he smiled again: "If it wasn't for the inconvenience, she would have to come today, so I won't be allowed to come Compensation is not it?"

When Hu Ning said this, Hu Ningyun felt even more guilty: "Where is it, Yun'er shouldn't be, my sister-in-law is heavy, I should go to see her often, and I should be with her. When things are over today, I'll go take a look."

There are still many young talents waiting to give gifts to please the beauties, Hu Ning didn't waste any more time, let the twins say auspicious words to the sister-in-law, and then left the stage.

Zhong Qiyun was close to the stage, so he could more or less hear the conversation between those two.Seeing that this man's conversation is refined and elegant, unlike a merchant, but Hu Ningyun called him "cousin"...

Zhong Qiyun thought for a while and couldn't help asking Qu Xiao who was beside him: "Brother Qu, is this Hu Ningeng, the eldest son of Master Hu's family?"

"Yes, this is Shi Hu Ninggen, the governor of Taizhou." Speaking of this, Qu Xiao said with a smile: "This Hu Ningeng married General Fang's daughter, Fang Ruqin, you know that Fang Ruqin has a bold personality. , hot-tempered, it is said that Mr. Chang Shi is very fearful of internal affairs, so far there is only such a wife, and even a concubine dare not accept it."

Zhong Qiyun also laughed when he heard the words, seeing the appearance of Hu Ning mentioning his wife just now, although he seemed helpless, he could see the pampering in it.But he is not interested in knowing other people's private affairs, but Hu Ning is more...

Hu Ninggeng, the son of Hu Yandu, Hu Yanzhang's eldest brother, is only in his twenties, and he is already the second in command of Taizhou Prefecture, and the only official in the entire Hu family. He is young and promising.

Zhong Qiyun nodded. If he wanted to communicate with the Hu family, he had done his homework long ago. Of course, he also knew that Hu Yanzhang had three brothers. He was originally the second child of the Hu family, so he shouldn't be in charge of everyone... ...

In fact, there are quite a lot of rumors in the secret workshop, and the various versions are all twists and turns, which are amazing, but no matter which one, in the final analysis, it is nothing more than family struggle, fish dies and nets are broken, the winner is king, and the situation is irreconcilable.

Zhong Qiyun actually believed it to some extent, but he never thought that Hu Ning seemed to have a rather close relationship with Hu Yanzhang's family, and he didn't have any contact with Hu Yanzhang's family as in the rumors.

In fact, it is true if you think about it carefully, although Hu Yanzhang may have used some means to get the big one.

There have been breaks between brothers in some industries, but the bones and tendons were broken after all. Such a family cannot be torn apart even by the change of dynasties, and it has been passed down to this day. It is impossible for such a thing to break.

Their family members understand better than anyone that the prosperity of the family is much more important than the hero of one person.

Taizhou... Zhong Qiyun picked up the tea on the table and took a sip, slowly smiling.

"Taizhou is a good place..." Isn't Yuhuan County there?

Thinking that Zhong Qiyun had heard about the city expansion of Taizhou, Qu Xiao nodded with squinted eyes and said, "Indeed, once the city expands, it will take a few years before the imperial court will designate it as Shangzhou."

Zhong Qiyun's thoughts moved when he heard the sound, and he asked again: "Brother Qu, I want to inquire about something with you."

"how?"

"Is your Zhou family planning to invest in some industries in Taizhou?" Zhong Qiyun remembered that this Qu Xiao was a distant relative of the Zhou family. Although he was a relative, he posted the word 'far'.

Qu Xiao frowned slightly.

Seeing this, Zhong Qiyun secretly hid the smile in his eyes, and said 'suddenly': "Oh, I'm taking the liberty of asking this, it must be because Brother Qu is inconvenient to tell others."

Hearing the sound, Qu Xiao sighed incredulously, "It's not that I didn't say it, but I really didn't know that my uncle handed over the Hangzhou industry to me, and I naturally don't care about the production in other places."

"..." Zhong Qiyun pretended to sigh and stopped talking.

Afterwards, the two chatted for a while, and after a while, Qu Xiao suddenly asked again: "Brother Zhong is planning to go to Taizhou?" Qu Xiao looked carefully at Zhong Qiyun, wondering what he thought of.

"I have this plan." Of course he is going to Taizhou, but it is not Taizhou City but Yuhuan under its jurisdiction. Zhong Qiyun said again: "It would be a pity if we don't take the opportunity to vote first..."

After saying this, he looked at Qu Xiao who was deep in thought, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, no matter whether Qu Xiao could see that he did it deliberately, at least Zhong Qiyun knew that Qu Xiao was really moved, it was just because of the Zhou family's love. That's all.

It was inconvenient to continue talking in public at this level, and the two of them changed the subject and chatted again.When Xie Wenyuan took the birthday gift and sent it up, the two of them stopped.

Xie Wenyuan was originally the top person in the imperial court, and also the person who was rumored to be in love with Hu Ningyun, and the central figure in the rumors. His appearance naturally attracted everyone's attention in an instant.

Qu Xiao turned sideways to look up the stage, and saw Hu Ningyun's face was like a peach blossom, he saluted Xie Wenyuan gently, and called "cousin" in a low voice with the shyness of his daughter, Impressive temperament

.

"Hey, now I regret how I had such a bed warmer early on... who is so heart-warming and dare not blaspheme. No longer indifferent.”

Zhong Qiyun naturally knew that this Qu Xiao was "well-informed" just like He Minqing, so he laughed and asked, "Brother Qu has a high opinion of Miss Hu, but I heard that the girl from Hangzhou City is a good girl." It’s also very beautiful.”

"It's different, it's different," Qu Xiao smiled and shook his fan, "It means that the girl's beauty lies in her appearance, but Miss Hu cares about her beauty. She has a brilliant temperament and talent, so she is naturally beautiful."

Zhong Qiyun smiled, didn't ask any more questions, just looked up the stage, and it happened that Xie Wenyuan ordered Zhang Hong to take out the birthday gift from Zhang Hong, a picture of calligraphy and an incense burner.

Zhong Qiyun didn't know how to write, but seeing the people around him exclaiming when they saw that word, he knew that the calligraphy and painting must be extraordinary.

"Book Saint Mobao!" Someone on the side screamed.

"Authentic, this is authentic!" Another person said anxiously.

The sage of calligraphy, Wang Xizhi, Zhong Qiyun still has this bit of common sense.

Although Zhong Qiyun didn't know how to read, what does the word 'Wang Xizhi' represent?

How much Wang Xizhi's calligraphy is loved by people, I don't know literati, even officials, generals, ministers and emperors love it. It is said that after Wu Zetian died, he brought Wang Xizhi's Lanting Collection Preface into the tomb, so he still knows.He remembered that in the past few years, it was reported in the news that a painting of Wang Xi's calligraphy was sold for a sky-high price of [-] million yuan, and the calligraphy was sold, and the calligraphy was not authentic.

Xie Wenyuan is really willing.

Zhong Qiyun looked at the two people on the stage with a complicated expression, only to see Hu Ningyun was so excited that he couldn't speak while holding the scroll, and stared straight at Xie Wenyuan with a pair of almond eyes.

"Cousin... this, this is really too precious..."

Xie Wenyuan smiled slightly, and said: "Yun'er understands and cherishes calligraphy from urinating. I got this calligraphy by chance. It has been left in my house all year round to collect dust. It is just right to give it to you. Don't refuse."

Xie Wenyuan's words are really humble, who doesn't know that Xie Shangshu is also a masterpiece?But when he said this, it would be bad if he refused again.

Thinking of this, Hu Ningyun no longer refused, hugged the calligraphy and painting tightly in his arms, bowed to Xie Wenyuan again with a smile on his face and said: "Yun'er thanked my cousin."

Seeing this, Zhong Qiyun sighed again.

Qu Xiao also sighed at the side: "Master Shangshu is really willing to smile for Bomei."

Zhong Qiyun nodded with a complicated expression.

When Xie Wenyuan returned to his seat, Zhong Qiyun couldn't help but turned sideways and asked: "Master Xie went out with this hand?"

, doesn't this make Ms. Hu even more worried about you, the rest of our gift is nothing compared to it. "

Xie Wenyuan looked at Zhong Qiyun amusedly, "Didn't you say that you have no intention of asking for marriage? Isn't this just right?"

"I'm afraid you won't be able to get away then."

Xie Wenyuan glanced at Zhong Qiyun: "How do you know I want to get away?"

"???" What? ? ?
