Plum Blossoms

The gate of Baihualou will never be closed, it will always be open.Wang Zhaojun asked Huamanlou, and he said he was waiting for people in need to come in.

Huamanlou's friend Lu Xiaofeng has never been seen.She has been staying in Baihualou these days and has never gone out.Sometimes she helps Huamanlou take care of his flowers, and sometimes she helps Aunt Li carry buckets of water.Recently, she is responsible for killing the chickens, ducks, fish and shrimps in the kitchen, because they can be upgraded to earn gold coins.The book on Huamanlou's desk is a storybook, which probably tells a romantic story about a scholar rushing for an exam and a fox demon who repays his favor. She has already finished reading it.Huamanlou said that this should be Lu Xiaofeng who came to Baihualou last time, and after hearing her narrate the outline of the story, he just laughed: "The authors of these stories are always whimsical, even the fox demon fell in love with people. It can be fabricated, how can there be a fox demon in this world?"

Wang Zhaojun retorted: "Yes, there are fox demons in the world."

Hua Manlou thought she was stubborn because she was impressed by the touching story, so she didn't dispute with her.

But Wang Zhaojun was thinking of Daji, that exquisite and well-behaved fox girl, even the title is "Charming Fox" at a glance.She doesn't know the identities and backgrounds of the other heroes, but she vaguely remembers someone saying that Daji is a fox demon.

It seems that some hero said it, and it seems that the summoners mentioned it.

If you let go of the eagerness to return to the Continent of Kings for now, life in Baihualou is actually extremely comfortable and ordinary.She doesn't need to protect the defense tower, she doesn't need to be alert to the assassins attacking herself, and she doesn't need to run in the Canyon of Kings to support her.Get up early to grow flowers and read books, and occasionally Huamanlou can play the piano, and she can even follow him to the next song with the flute.When the song was over, both of them had smiles on their faces.

During this period, she tried to kill a few sparrows that were jumping on the branches in front of her window, and got a few dozen gold coins here and there.

On this day, Huamanlou was invited by the squires in the city, saying that they had something to discuss, and only Mrs. Li and Wang Zhaojun were left at home.Wang Zhaojun sat alone at the table, carefully cultivating soil for a pot of flowers.

Suddenly, there was a very short exclamation from someone outside, and a person wearing indigo clothes and a red cloak "flyed" up.

He stopped on the balcony of Baihua Building, and before he could stand still, he felt a gust of cold air hit him.He hurriedly dodged with lightness kung fu, and saw an unbelievable scene in front of him - where he was standing before, an ice surface appeared out of thin air, and it was covered with explosion marks.

On the other side, Wang Zhaojun hurriedly backed away, feeling terrified in his heart.

Another person with displacement skills.

And, he can fly.

Hua Manlou had never used lightness kung fu in front of her, so she didn't know that "flying" was not a difficult task for these knights in the rivers and lakes, unlike their Wang Dalu, which is a special skill possessed by very few talents.

Because he didn't know, Wang Zhaojun was now fully alert.

The visitor clicked his tongue and shouted carelessly: "What kind of martial art is this? It's so powerful."

No matter how powerful it is, it is useless if it does not hurt anyone.

Wang Zhaojun was still far away from him, watching coldly.She holds the staff, ready to strike the enemy at any moment.It's just that once she started to attack, Baihualou must not be intact, so she didn't use skills to attack immediately.

The other party walked around the ice mark twice before raising his head, and was stunned for a moment.He has a good appearance, with a trace of unrestrained charm between his eyebrows, and two beards on his mouth, which are as neat and beautiful as his eyebrows.

He looked at Wang Zhaojun, and murmured: "It's terrible, Huamanlou actually hid a beautiful girl at home."

Hearing Hua Manlou's name, and seeing that the other party hadn't made a move, Wang Zhaojun was suddenly blessed, and suddenly realized: "You are... Lu Xiaofeng?"

Lu Xiaofeng nodded blankly: "Yes, I am Lu Xiaofeng."

The Lu Xiaofeng that Wang Zhaojun imagined was quite different from the young man she saw with her own eyes.

At this time, Mrs. Li usually goes out to buy vegetables, so she is definitely not at home.Wang Zhaojun made a cup of tea, then pushed the cup to Lu Xiaofeng who was looking at her curiously.

She opened her mouth, but didn't know where to start.

Lu Xiaofeng spoke first: "Isn't Huamanlou here?"

With the topic started, Wang Zhaojun was finally not so restrained, and replied: "He was invited by Boss Qian from South Street in the morning, and he should be back soon."

Lu Xiaofeng took a sip of tea, twirled his fingers around the rim of the cup, and asked again: "May I ask, what is the girl's name? Why is she here at Huamanlou?"

He asked frankly, and Wang Zhaojun answered naturally: "My name is Wang Zhaojun, and I live in Baihualou with the help of Huamanlou."

"Oh..." Lu Xiaofeng sighed meaningfully, raised his eyebrows and said, "Is it the word Zhaojun for Concubine Ming? Good name."

The host was not at home, and the two guests sat together, feeling a bit awkward, unable to even speak a few words.Wang Zhaojun had doubts in his heart, and sat quietly with a pensive face on his face, his demeanor was exceptionally cold, giving people the feeling of being extremely lonely and indifferent.

Lu Xiaofeng couldn't get out of his witty words.

He had no choice but to drink tea in silence.

Fortunately, at this time, Huamanlou came back.When Lu Xiaofeng heard him go upstairs, he rushed to meet him: "Hua Man Lou, you are back, I have been waiting for you for a long time."

He's just talking nonsense.From the time he flew to the balcony to now, he took only two sips of his cup of tea in just a few words.

Wang Zhaojun glanced at him and thought to himself: You are a liar.

Hua Manlou smiled warmly and said, "Brother Lu has waited so long, Hua Manlou feels very guilty."

Lu Xiaofeng waved his hands and said generously: "It's nothing, but if you are willing to dig out your peach blossom wine for me to taste, that would be great."

Hua Manlou was surprised: "You are in Datong Mansion, haven't you had enough?"

Lu Xiaofeng squinted at him: "I don't know who sent the message to let me come here, so I had no choice but to rush here without stopping."

While they were talking, Wang Zhaojun stood behind, listening silently.The two teased each other and got very close.Wang Zhaojun thought, although he is a good liar, he does have a good relationship with Huamanlou.

Huamanlou quickly thought of Wang Zhaojun, the two came over, and he introduced to Lu Xiaofeng, "Lu Xiaofeng, this is Miss Wang Zhaojun."

Lu Xiaofeng pinched his beard and said, "I already know him."

Hua Manlou continued: "This time I invite you to come here, it is Miss Wang who is asking for something. Lu Xiaofeng, have you ever heard of a place called Canyon of Kings?"

The person he questioned was naturally at a loss.

Hua Manlou knew it would not be so smooth, and had no regrets, and said again: "The Canyon of Kings is Miss Wang's hometown. She got lost for a while, and now she can't return. Now that I have encountered it, I want to help."

Lu Xiaofeng said that he had never heard of it, and it was even more confusing to hear Hua Manlou not knowing the state capital where the Canyon of Kings was located.He spread his hands, expressing that he was powerless: "I really don't know."

"I think so." Hua Manlou said calmly, "So when I came here, I didn't expect to hear any news from you, but I just wanted to find Dazhi Datong, and it would be smoother with your help. "

Lu Xiaofeng was surprised: "You even know this?"

Hua Manlou smiled gently and kindly: "As Brother Lu said, I am a well-informed person. Although I am blind, I am not deaf at all."

Lu Xiaofeng smiled wryly: "Sometimes I really wish you were a little deaf."

In Wang Zhaojun's opinion, Lu Xiaofeng is actually an interesting person.From the beginning to the end, he didn't comment on her unusual appearance, and his words were funny.He has a romantic and unrestrained temperament, but he is often silenced by Hua Manlou's words.

Hua Manlou was always very happy, and even drank wine during the meal.

The peach blossom wine that Lu Xiaofeng had coveted for a long time was poured into the wine glass, the light pink color was very pretty.This wine tastes mellow, not strong, and has a faint peach blossom aroma.

Lu Xiaofeng drank a lot, almost half of the jar went into his stomach. After eating, he said that he wanted to take a rest to let go of his alcohol, and ran away somewhere.Mrs. Li cleaned up the leftovers and brought fresh tea. Hua Manlou is now leaning on the couch in the hall, slowly sipping a cup of tea.

Probably because of drinking, his face was a little pink.

Wang Zhaojun sat not far from him.

Hua Manlou noticed it, raised her head and said to her, "Miss Wang, don't worry, after we have made up our minds, we will set off to find Mr. Dazhi Datong."

Wang Zhaojun wanted to say that he was not in a hurry, but that he had some questions and wanted to ask Huamanlou.

She asked, "Hua Man Lou, who is Concubine Ming?"

Hua Manlou was stunned.Wang Zhaojun didn't wait for him to speak, and said: "I have heard this name three times. The first time was you who said, 'Mingfei Zhaojun is a good name'; the second time was said by Da Furen, I remember She said, 'The Concubine Ming has the most graceful appearance'. If it happened once or twice, I would just take it as a coincidence, but today your friend Lu Xiaofeng also asked me after hearing my name, is it the second Zhaojun from Concubine Ming? Character."

After she finished speaking, she paused and asked, "Who is Concubine Ming?"

Huamanlou couldn't see it, but from her tone, one could imagine how confused and confused she must be.

However, he felt that he was even more puzzled than her at this moment.

Hua Manlou asked: "Miss Wang, don't you know who Concubine Ming is?"

Wang Zhaojun hummed.

Hua Manlou thought, even if the Canyon of Kings is a place that does not contend with the world, it is too closed.After all, in his opinion, everyone knows the story of Zhaojun's journey to the fortress. Countless literati and poets in the past dynasties have written poems and lyrics for her, and there are countless dramas and romances.Hua Manlou originally thought that Wang Zhaojun's parents chose this name on purpose, but now it seems that it just happened to be the same name?

However, he still explained: "The Ming concubine's surname is Wang, her name is Qiang, and her style name is Zhaojun. In the Western Han Dynasty, in order to maintain the relationship between the Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu, she went to the land of the Xiongnu and went out to make a marriage. "

Wang Zhaojun lost his mind when he heard the word "marriage".

"Because Miss Wang and Concubine Ming have the same name, that's why everyone mentions it." Hua Manlou said with a smile, "Since Miss Wang has never known about Concubine Ming's deeds, it may be a coincidence that she wants to have the same name."

He couldn't see the disturbed look on the other side.

"Going out to make a marriage..." she murmured and repeated, "What are the Huns?"

Huamanlou has already determined that the Canyon of Kings is like a peach blossom garden, which is isolated from the world. I don’t know when this place is. She is not surprised by her question: "When it comes to our dynasty, there are no such things as the Huns. If you ask where the Huns are, , probably above the border of our dynasty, the land of the extreme north."

The author has something to say: 1. The background setting of Glory of Kings is based on our mythology and history, but it is different from mythology history. Therefore, it is privately assumed that Wang Zhaojun does not know the real history, but she is also sent to and dear.

2. The legend of Lu Xiaofeng should be regarded as a superficial dynasty, which is roughly equivalent to the Ming Dynasty. This is not the point and don't care.
