Princess and The General

Chapter 31: Visit Lin'an at night

Views:

After the Dragon Boat Festival, the Imperial Capital is much more lively than usual.

Especially at night.

Dongling Kingdom is rich in products and fertile land. The imperial capital Lin'an was built on the banks of the Yangtze River and is a fertile land.

At night, some people were going boating on the river, drinking a little wine while blowing the river breeze, and looking at the scenery on both sides of the strait, it was really pleasant.

"Yufu, how about it, do you want to go with us? My second brother has already ordered a boat to go boating on the river at night, not to mention how cool it is!"

Gu Xiang and Gu Yi tried their best to persuade Yufu to take her out for fun.

Yu Fu was also very excited, biting his lip and looking at Gu Xiang and Gu Yi.

"I haven't visited the imperial capital since I came here, so I want to see it too. But the general said, Guhou Mansion is very popular in the imperial capital, and my identity is not suitable for going out more."

"That was before!"

Gu Yi proudly said: "Big brother said, the Dragon Boat Festival banquet was to officially introduce you to everyone. Now everyone in the Imperial Capital knows that you are the lady of the Guhou Mansion, who else would dare to provoke you? Not to mention you. Follow us out, don't worry!"

"you?"

Yufu covered his mouth and snickered, "I'm not worried when I go out with you! The general always beats you with sticks, and if you follow you, I will only get into trouble, so I won't go!"

Gu Lian took a step away hurriedly, clearing up relations with Gu Yi.

"It's because he is often beaten by his father with a military baton. It has nothing to do with me, so I won't follow him in the culprit!"

Gu Yi glared at him, "Gu Xiang, you are too unreasonable! Father said before that the name of the two of us is good for brothers. If we are divided into one word, we are neat when we are together! Now if you have a bad reputation, you just want to think about it. Let me carry it alone? Don't think about it!"

He jumped up and hooked Gu Xiang's neck, and the two brothers scrambled together.

If you break my hand, I will twist your arm and let no one.

The two of them are twins, but if you look closely, you can still tell the difference.

Gu Yi looks naughty, but in fact, his body is weaker than Gu Xiangya, and he is not as tall as Gu Xiangya.

It is said that Madam Hou was exhausted after her husband came out of Gu Xiang. When Gu Yi was born, she almost didn't give birth. She held her in her hand and thought it was a stillbirth, but she was lucky to be saved.

"Okay, okay, five brothers and six brothers don't fight, I'll go with you. I just have to talk to the general, and he agreed to let us go again."

When the two heard these words, they threw away their hands tacitly, "Don't worry, there is a second brother, and my father will definitely agree to it!"

Gu Xiang and Gu Yi's experience is that if you want to go out to play, you have to get one of the older brothers, the best is the eldest brother Gu Shubai, and the second is the second brother Gu Jiuge.

In the past two years, the third brother Gu Hanmo and the fourth brother Gu Wenqing have also grown up, and Gu Huaijiang has nothing to worry about when they go out.

Only Gu Xiang and Gu Yi are left, making people feel uneasy.

Yufu thought about the night view of Lin'an, and looked forward to it in his heart.

Tonight, Gu Huaijiang and Gu Shubai went to the army. In the evening, Yufu and Gu Xiang went to the door to wait for Gu Jiujiu and sing, but they saw a gorgeous and unusual carriage parked outside the door, in the faint night. Bright and dazzling.

On the outer wall of the vermilion carriage, the top cover is inlaid with a circle of rubies, and the four corners of the carriage are hung with copper horses and tassels.

The carved doors and windows opened, revealing the rosy-colored carriage interior decoration, and the silk curtains fell down. It was obviously a carriage for women.

Gu Xiang and Gu Yi couldn't help being surprised.

"Is this the carriage in our house?"

The Guhou Mansion were all men who practiced martial arts. Everyone used to ride horses and seldom used horse-drawn carriages.

At first glance, this gorgeously decorated carriage was not from outsiders, but was specially prepared for Yufu.

The coachman who was waiting by the car was about to answer, and suddenly he saw a man riding a claret horse slowly coming up behind him, his spirits flying.

"I ordered someone to specially prepare it for Yufu, Yufu, do you still like it when you look at it?"

Yufu turned his head and took a look, Yaolan who was following her stared at the carriage, looking eager to try.

She answered honestly: "I like it, thank you brother."

It is said that Gu Jiuge will please women the most, but it is not a lie.

This carriage is extremely in line with women's aesthetics in terms of color and texture, carving or inlay, and people have to like it.

But Yufu felt that something was still missing.

what is it

She can't tell.

"As long as you like it, get in the car and we will start."

Yaolan helped Yu to get into the carriage, and Gu Yi actually followed behind to get in the carriage, and was torn off by Gu Xiang.

"Forgot that you let Yufu live with us last time, and father beat you ten army sticks?"

Gu Yi still couldn't remember whether men and women were giving or receiving a kiss.

"Isn't it okay to ride a carriage together? There are so many breaking rules!"

Gu Yi muttered, still afraid of being punished by Gu Huaijiang, and honestly followed Gu Xiang on the horse.

All the way from Guhou Mansion to the riverside, Yufu stared at the scenery outside the car, and was particularly interested in everything on the street market.

Gu Jiuge was riding a horse by the cart. When Yufu saw the person selling candied haws, his eyes glowed, so he stopped his horse and bought two bunches.

One string is naturally for Yufu, and the other string is for Yaolan.

He could see that Yufu treated Yaolan as close as sisters, and the two had grown up together since they were young, so they are extremely close.

Yaolan saw that she had a share, and happily took the candied haws, "Thank you, second son!"

After comparing the two strings in his hand, he handed the fuller string to Yufu.

Yufu took the candied haws with a smile, and opened his mouth to bite.

"Well, it's so sweet!"

The red syrup is wrapped in the sweet and sour hawthorn, which is crispy and soft when bitten.

The crunchy pieces of sugar were crushed, and the soft ones were hawthorns. The carriage was filled with crackling sounds, and the two of them ate very happily.

Gu Jiuge heard movement outside the carriage and couldn't help but cocked his mouth.

You can buy two bunches of candied haws to be happy, and Yufu is really too easy to satisfy.

She didn't seem to understand that she was now a lady of Guhou's mansion, she was so pampered, she could get everything she wanted.

What are two bunches of candied haws

I don’t know if she will be so happy when she realizes this...

"arrive!"

Not long afterwards, Gu Yi's cheers sounded from outside the carriage, and a gust of river breeze that followed brought the curtain of the car to Yufu's face.

So cool!

She got out of the car in a hurry, and she saw the vast river with waves.

Willow branches are whirling on both sides of the river, and behind the trees are people scattered high and low, and the lights are bright and prosperous.

Yufu couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"It is said in the book that Lin'an, the capital of Dongling Emperor, is a painted bridge of smoke and willows, with wind curtains and emerald screens, home to 100,000 people. When I see it now, it really deserves its reputation."

Gu Xiang glanced at her curiously, "Yufu, I didn't expect you to read a book at a young age?"

Thank you for your reward~

Although it was an overhead dynasty, Lin'an, the capital of the Dongling Emperor in the text, was the ancient name of Hangzhou.

I have been to Hangzhou when traveling, and I like this place very much. The poems Yufu read, I vaguely remember that it was written in Hangzhou, I’m not sure if I remembered it wrong~
