"Look! That man is so beautiful!"
There was a commotion in the crowd in front, Ye Po and Ye Fei pressed their hands on the hilt of the sword unconsciously, He Li pulled Ling Qingyu and hugged him tightly, Shi Fang also tightly held Alan's hand , the rest of the guards became even more nervous.
The crowd was separated, and from the brightly lit place, a group of people hurried over. The first person had long hair tied behind his head with a red ribbon, and the dark red skirt set off the gorgeous face. When the ice-like phoenix eyes saw the woman holding a colorful glazed lantern in front of her, they immediately lit up like fireworks in the sky.
Taking a few steps forward in a hurry, Ye Shixi said: "The time is almost up, Mr. Zhu and the others are waiting."
Ling Qingyu groaned, looked at the sky, and said: "Then let's hurry up, today is my treat, it's rude to go late."
Seeing the group of people walking away in a hurry, the stall owner held two hundred taels of silver bills in his hand, his heartbroken face slowly changed, and he asked a guard on duty next to him, "Brother, who is that person?"
"General Ye!" The guard replied casually, and then realized who he was asking, and couldn't help laughing: "Are you asking who bought your lamp? That's General He."
General He! That person can fool everyone in the world, if he fools me with one more light, I'm not at a loss, right
Luoyang Zuifanghua was facing the Luohe River. At this time, the four-storey building was overcrowded, and there were several floors of red-armored soldiers surrounding it.
Looking at the ladies leaning out from the window of the box, Ying Shisan unconsciously frowned, and asked in a low voice, "Who leaked the news?"
"Master has invited some female family members, so it may not be revealed." Ying Qi smiled, threw a peanut in his mouth, and said: "All the dignified and respectable people in Luoyang City have brought out their girls." Sighing, Ying Qi Qi Qi said with a smile in his voice: "Who said that there are too many good men in our Ling family army."
The most popular one is Ye Shiyi who is loved by men and women, then He Li who is nearly 30 years old and still unmarried, and then those unmarried senior generals.
"Send more people, there are too many people." After Ying Shisan finished speaking, he walked up to the fourth floor.
Ying Qi responded, and his figure disappeared into the shadows.
On the fourth floor of Zuifanghua, there are two large boxes that are connected together, separated into two by movable screens, and two tables of female relatives are sitting in the box on the left.
Seeing those girls who were all very grandly and beautifully dressed, looking through the gap in the screen to see the men standing in the middle box, Jiang Suhua smiled and poured a cup of tea for Su Wanyun.
Su Wanyun took the tea bowl with a smile, feeling somewhat displeased. Ling Qingyu's treat today was originally to entertain those close subordinates who came back for the holiday, but at Han Bian's suggestion, he decided to also invite those civil servants who joined the Ling family's camp , and those female officials who came forward to shoulder the burden like Su Wanyun. Because of the rare opportunity, Su Wanyun also gave Jiang Suhua a post. When she first arrived in Bianjing, it was Jiang Suhua who helped her. Her husband's family Although Luoyang Jiang's family has not been cleaned, it has not entered the Ling family's camp. If there is a chance, she hopes that she can have a good way out.
But unexpectedly, she brought several family members with her.
Luoyang Fang Family, Luoyang Zhou Family, Luoyang Qin Family...
Seeing those female officials sitting at another table by themselves, Su Wanyun could only smile wryly. These people were probably beating up on the idea of those high-ranking officials of the Ling family, and her good intentions were actually taken advantage of by others...
It's just that the men of the Ling family, Su Wanyun sneered at the corner of her mouth, she turned her head and looked through the gap in the screen, and when she met Han Bian's eyes through the gap, her smile was natural warm up.
Han Bian smiled and looked away, Wan Yun was really kind and innocent.
"Brother Han, Mr. Zhu!" A new official walked in from the door, bowed to Han Bian and Zhu Weili as soon as he entered the door, and then looked at the other people with a smile.
"This is Gao Zhan, this is General Gu, General Guan, General Xia, General Wei, this one is of the same clan as you, General Gao Liugao, General Qi, General Lin," Han Bian took Gao Zhan to introduce those people one by one. The generals in plain clothes returned to the desk of the civil servants, and smiled at Su Hexiang: "This is Gao Zhan, Gao Zhan, Su Hexiang, who is in charge of business in Luoyang."
Gao Zhan hurriedly saluted. Su Hexiang was the business manager of the Ling family. He was really the richest person in the Ling family. It was just that he was running around all the time. He had heard his name for a long time but hadn't seen him in person. When he saw him now, he couldn't help crying Saying hello, I thought Han Bian was already a first-class romantic figure, but now I see Su Hexiang, with his restrained grace in his gestures and his handsome face with a warm spring breeze smile, he is really a person like the wind and the moon , making people fall in love at first sight.
Speaking of which, the Ling family really produced a large number of talents, not to mention those generals over there who are majestic even in casual clothes, but these literati, Zhu Weili, Han Jian, Su Ce, and Zheng Zheng, including this Su Hexiang, who A person who is not top notch.
What's more, there are still those few people there.
"Here we come!" A girl who had been leaning against the window and looking out called out in a low voice, her face turned red immediately.
The rest of the girls looked away from the screen, and they all flocked to the window, and saw a person (only one of them was seen in the group) walking towards the bright lights, with such a peerless elegance, more than the lights than the stars. They were all dazzling, as if he was the only one in the whole world, and all the rays of light became his foil-like man.
There were bursts of exclamations, and then, I didn't know that there was a scream from the window, and then the handkerchief, fruit and nuts were all thrown down.
"If I can be with General Ye, I will be a concubine, and I am willing." A girl murmured like a low sigh, and immediately received all kinds of contemptuous looks.
"You have a good idea, I'm afraid you are not qualified to serve tea and water." Fang Ziyan snorted coldly.
The girl blushed immediately, and retreated to her mother. Her mother patted her lightly, and looked at those ladies from the family with disdain. She had been doing things with Ling Qingyu for a few months, so she knew more or less The inside story, these ladies from aristocratic families think they are so noble, and they dream of climbing up to those important generals of the Ling family, they really want to eat swan meat!
Seeing Ye Shiyi's welcoming appearance, he hugged Xiao Zheng who was a little frightened, Ling Qingyu waved his hand to let Ye Shixi go in, and resolutely drew a clear line with him.
"Okay, I'm really not afraid, I'm not afraid." Coaxing Xiao Zheng in a low voice, Ling Qingyu entered through the side door protected by He Li.
Xiao Zheng's hands hugged Ling Qingyu's neck tightly, and his small body trembled slightly. It was the fear hidden deep in his heart. He was almost killed by his own mother who loudly insulted and whipped him, and was rejected by his own father. The child's memory will not be preserved until he grows up, but at this time, he still remembers it very clearly. If Ling Qingyu hadn't asked him to bring him back for adoption, he might have died in his father's disgust long ago.
"Come on, godfather, the stairs are too high for godmother to hold." He Li pulled Xiao Zheng out of Ling Qingyu's arms, hugged him with one hand, and led Ling Qingyu with the other, and went up to the fourth floor from the stairs behind.
Fang Ziyan watched the man swiftly past the discarded objects and entered the gate below, she felt a shy expression on her face, the family hoped to establish a relationship with the Ling family, the idea was marriage, and her father was the most optimistic The one is Gao Liu, who holds a hundred thousand soldiers, and has never married a wife in his thirties. If she married herself, such a beautiful little girl would definitely be loved by all kinds of people. But since meeting Ye Shishi, Fang Ziyan But I can't tolerate other people anymore in my heart, young and handsome, the imposing manner of not getting angry and self-imposing is as beautiful as a god, and he holds the most fierce Raksha army in the world in his hands, how can he not be tempted by such a character.
Zhou Qianrong sighed softly, the girl was thinking, naturally she loves such a young and handsome son, but the family's plan is He Li, even if she is a concubine, she also wants to send her to He's house, her mother made it very clear, He Li Li is the one who will be the emperor in the future. Although he is playing under the banner of the Ling family now, Ling Qingyu is just a cover and a puppet. Even if he is a concubine, he will not be able to escape a concubine in the future. He is so handsome, with the domineering air of planning everything under control, according to what his father and elder brother said, that is the air of a king.
"In the past, there was a fan in the Ling family, and he was also an incredibly beautiful person." Jiang Ziqing's whisper made several girls turn their heads to look at her, Jiang Ziqing raised his chin proudly, and said: "I saw it once when I was in Bianjing. The hair was golden in color, and the eyes were blue, like sapphires."
Qin Xianglin covered the corner of her mouth lightly, and said with a smile: "I've also heard that it's a guard who follows Ling Qingyu, very beautiful."
"Hmph," Fang Ziyan snorted coldly, "I'm afraid it's just that woman's plaything."
"That's right, when General He takes Bianjing, I'm afraid that person will be useless?" Jiang Ziqing glanced at Zhou Qianrong. She had overheard the conversation between his sister-in-law and mother, and knew that the Zhou family was sending their daughter to He. Li had the idea of being a concubine, and her father and elder brother also had this idea. If this was the case, she and Zhou Qianrong would be considered sisters in the palace from now on.
Qin Xianglin chuckled, and said, "That's not necessarily the case, maybe it's General Ye, don't forget, there's Xiao Se." There was a pleasant smile on her face, but a sneer in her heart, the eyes of these girls and the men behind them I only saw these people in Luoyang City now, that bleak character is not inferior to Ye Shiyi. Xiao Se, who has occupied Jinghu Road by himself, is the real beloved.
There was a noise from the middle box, and the girls quickly sat back in their seats, then turned to look over there.
Both civil servants and generals got up and stood in two rows in the room. After Ye Shishi came in, he got up and saluted, "I have seen the master."
A tall and handsome man walked in with a child in his hands and half covered the woman behind him. A man in black clothes next to him untied the cloak for her and put it in his hands and stepped back a few steps. The woman walked inside Walking away, he smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I missed the time watching the fun."
The men got up and smiled and hugged her and approached the main table. Ye Shiyi bent down and brushed the chair, and then placed a cushion. Su Hexiang handed over the freshly brewed hot tea. The woman took the hot tea and turned her head. He smiled at Zhu Weili and said, "The street is very lively, Mr. Zhu, you have done a good job." After seeing some other civil servants, he pointed to one of them and said, "Zhong Ziqi!"
The man laughed and said, "Master, do you still remember?"
"Naturally, you can't forget your name even if you want to, right? By the way, where is your Boya?" the woman laughed.
"Master still remembers this. When it comes to piano skills, no one in the world can do it well." After Zhong Ziqi finished speaking, he was annoyed, and hurriedly said: "Bo Ya is now in Chang'an, so I will go to Bianjing next year to give it to me." Happy New Year."
The woman smiled lightly and said: "That's naturally good. Speaking of which, you guys haven't been together for many years, right? Come on, don't stand there, sit down, I've contributed all thirteen today, How about you try today's dishes."
The woman took the main seat, the tall man handed over the child to someone else and sat on her right, Zhu Weili sat on the left, and the rest sat down with smiles, but Ye Shiyi and the man in black stood standing. behind the woman.
Bring tea and water.
The woman is not young anymore, she looks about twenty-seven or eighty-eight, her hair is only in a bunch at the back of her head, and she wears ordinary dark blue clothes, but her eyebrows and eyes are elegant.
"It's just a female household!" Fang Ziyan resented in a low voice.
"That's right, it's like pretending to be great, but it's just a puppet." Jiang Ziqing spat in a low voice.
"How long will you wait if you don't put on airs now?" Qin Xianglin covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled lowly, and said in a low voice: "You guys have to be tolerant."
"Yeah, we can't be as knowledgeable as those people, so we have to be more magnanimous." Zhou Qianrong nodded unconsciously. I have never seen He Li before, but when I saw him just now, my heart skipped a beat. If Ye Shiyi is a beautiful and sharp peerless weapon, then He Li is fine wine that has been accumulated for many years. Those who love their wives will naturally put themselves in that position in their hearts, and when they think that that woman is what He Li wants to use now, they will naturally want to be more magnanimous, so they blurt out the words.
The few people's voices were not loud, and the superior and sarcastic smiles on their faces all passed by, but Su Wanyun's face turned pale immediately, then she turned her head and looked over to the screen. Seeing Ying Shisan's cold eyes sweeping over, she felt After a sinking, he sighed slightly.
"What nonsense are you talking about, eat vegetables!" Jiang Suhua persuaded with a smile, picking up chopsticks.
Turning his head to see Ye Shiyi's expression was wrong, Ling Qingyu smiled unconsciously and said, "You said it was a surprise, what is it?"
Before she finished speaking, she saw huge fireworks being set off from the other side of the Luo River, and the fireworks shot into the night sky one after another, blooming in the night sky with dazzling splendor.
Looking at the colorful night sky, the suffocating beauty made Ling Qingyu unable to turn his eyes away for a moment.
That's why she didn't see Ye Shiyi who was looking at her with a heartfelt smile, his eyes were brighter than the night sky.
"Mother, these fireworks are so beautiful." The girls at the table next to the female officer exclaimed, and another female officer smiled and said, "General Ye brought these back after a three-day journey, and they wanted to show them to the master today. "
The girl's mother smiled slightly and said, "Isn't it thanks to the master that Luoyang can be so prosperous now? You try this, if it weren't for the blessing of the master, we could have the craftsmanship of the thirteenth master."
"By the way, I heard that a batch of silk brocades came from Guangnan this time. I don't know who they distributed to?"
"That, don't think about it, Mr. Su has already been sent to the master."
Hearing Yan Yan talking and laughing over there, the face of the lady at the table here is a bit unhappy, Jiang Suhua said with a smile to Su Wanyun: "Why, do they still listen to that woman?"
Before Su Wanyun could speak, Mrs. Fang had already chuckled and said: "How could it be, my master said that Mr. Zhu made the decision."
"That's right, women, of course it's the right way to be a husband and a child. Going out to show your face is the kind of thing that people who have no education and no one to support them do." Mrs. Zhou gently wiped the corner of her mouth with the handkerchief in her hand, and said with a sneer: "If you put a feather in, you'll be a phoenix."
Jiang Suhua's face changed slightly, before she could speak, Mrs. Qin said softly, "Stop talking."
Jiang Ziqing chuckled, and said, "Auntie is really good, but a pheasant can never become a phoenix."
"Ziqing!" Jiang Suhua yelled in a low voice, then looked awkwardly at Su Wanyun whose face was already pale, and said in a low voice, "Wanyun, don't mind."
Only then did they realize that Su Wanyun is the person in charge of the Ling Family Women's Federation, didn't she come out to show her face
"Here, Mrs. Han, don't worry too much, we really don't mean that." Mrs. Qin said carefully.
Mrs. Zhou snorted softly. This Su Wanyun was kicked out by the Mei family and married Han Bian right away. It's just that today's post can only be obtained by her after all. Although the Zhou family is a big family in Luoyang, the Ling family cannot stand firm in Luoyang without the help of the Zhou family. Li, as long as your daughter is married to He Li, are you still afraid of these people? Thinking this way in my heart, I unconsciously brought it out on the face, and said: "But Mrs. Han, I am not talking about you, you are also from a family, the Su family has a century-old family, it is not good to be so defiled."
Hearing what Mrs. Zhou said, Mrs. Fang also smiled and said, "Don't mind this, Mrs. Han. We don't mean anything malicious, but that woman is already immoral, and her reputation will be affected no matter how much she is with her."
"Immorality?" Su Wanyun sneered unknowingly, and said, "What do you think Mrs. Fang said?" If you want to die, then just die to the end, and I will help you.
Mrs. Fang smiled but did not speak. Jiang Ziqing put down his chopsticks and smiled, "I heard from Sister Wen's family that that fan is the face of that woman."
"Ziqing, is this something a girl can say?" Jiang Suhua shouted unconsciously.
Mrs. Zhou chuckled and said: "Don't blame the child, I've heard of this too, if it's done right, where would there be such rumors?"
Zhou Qianrong pulled down her mother's sleeves, then glanced timidly at the screen, everyone at the table realized that the entire fourth floor was dead silent, only the sound of fireworks exploding in the sky outside, and the noisy voices outside the window .
The bright fireworks gradually dissipated, and Fang Hua... After all, she was the only one who could get the posts of the day. I am afraid that I will have to rely on the strength of the Zhou family in the future. As long as my daughter is married to He Li, are you still afraid of these people? Thinking this way in my heart, I unconsciously brought it out on the face, and said: "But Mrs. Han, I am not talking about you, you are also from a family, the Su family has a century-old family, it is not good to be so defiled."
Hearing what Mrs. Zhou said, Mrs. Fang also smiled and said, "Don't mind this, Mrs. Han. We don't mean anything malicious, but that woman is already immoral, and her reputation will be affected no matter how much she is with her."
"Immorality?" Su Wanyun sneered unknowingly, and said, "What do you think Mrs. Fang said?" If you want to die, then just die to the end, and I will help you.
Mrs. Fang smiled but did not speak. Jiang Ziqing put down his chopsticks and smiled, "I heard from Sister Wen's family that that fan is the face of that woman."
"Ziqing, is this something a girl can say?" Jiang Suhua shouted unconsciously.
Mrs. Zhou chuckled and said: "Don't blame the child, I've heard of this too, if it's done right, where would there be such rumors?"
Zhou Qianrong pulled down her mother's sleeves, then glanced timidly at the screen, everyone at the table realized that the entire fourth floor was dead silent, only the sound of fireworks exploding in the sky outside, and the noisy voices outside the window .
The bright fireworks gradually dissipated, and the moment of youth...
