Jiangnan is good, but it is a little desolate in winter.
Small bridges and flowing water, soft songs and soft words, the two walked hand in hand on the bluestone path, wandering aimlessly.
I have lived in Pingjiang for two days, and I have seen several special sights. Several gardens are beautiful, but they are all private gardens and are not often open.
"If you have nowhere to play, you can go to Qingzhu Xiaozhu in the east of the city to listen to the music," said the boss who sold drawing paper umbrellas.
"Is there anything special?" Jing Shao picked out an umbrella painted with Qingfeng and showed it to the people around him.
Mu Hanzhang nodded and paid the shopkeeper.
"This green bamboo building sounds elegant, but it's not a tea house." The boss took the money and explained with a smile that usually the place where music is sung must be a tea house, but this green bamboo building is different. It is really elegant, but it doesn't sell tea. , but it sells snacks. The snacks there are very expensive, and they are also very delicate. The young man in Pingjiang City who is playful and does not like to pretend to drink tea likes that place the most.
When Jing Shao heard this, he immediately became interested. Her own princess liked elegant things, but she liked all kinds of snacks. Since then, she has killed two birds with one stone! So he pulled up the people around him and headed east of the city.
The Green Bamboo Building is indeed an elegant place. It is wrapped in layers of evergreen bamboo, and only a cobblestone-paved path leads to it. In the center of the bamboo forest is a small pavilion made entirely of bamboo, surrounded by gurgling water, and a singer sits on it holding a pipa, softly singing Jiangnan ditty. There are 16 bamboo pavilions in all directions of Xiaoxie, each pavilion is equipped with tables, chairs, heaters, and each pavilion can only seat one table of guests. In order to maintain an elegant state, although this place sells snacks, there is no noisy little Er who comes to order food. The guests must go behind the bamboo forest and tell the shopkeeper directly.
Perhaps because of the cold weather, when Jing Shao and the others came, there were only five or six pavilions occupied.
Freshly baked plum cake, accompanied by a bowl of hot wontons, is really delicious. Mu Hanzhang picked up a piece of plum blossom cake. These things are delicious, but they are too expensive. A plate of dim sum and two bowls of wontons cost a tael of silver! No wonder business is so bad.
Jing Shao took a sip of the soup. The fragrant and hot soup was quite refreshing on this cold winter day. When he looked up and saw his princess staring at the plum cake in a daze, he took his spoon and scooped a wonton to him. Lips: "Try it now, it won't taste good after a while."
Mu Hanzhang was stunned for a while, and subconsciously opened his mouth and put the wonton in his mouth. The fresh and fragrant taste immediately filled his lips and teeth.
Seeing that his princess finally stopped worrying about money and started eating seriously, Jing Shao ate all his bowls of wontons with confidence, and then got up to buy another bowl. In order to have fun, the two of them didn't bring any entourage, and they were reluctant to use Jing Shao, their own princess, so they had to go by themselves.
Mu Hanzhang was eating wontons elegantly and earnestly, when suddenly a person walked over from the pavilion next to him, his voice was clear and pleasant: "This son, I'm sorry to disturb you."
Mu Hanzhang turned his head to look, and couldn't help being stunned.
The person in front of him was dressed in snow white. Although it was winter, the robe was still covered with a layer of veil. Looking up along the slender figure, the facial features were delicate, the end of the eyes were lightly raised, and the face was a beautiful face, but the lips seemed to be beautiful. The arc of a smile that is not a smile makes him look dangerous.
"What is your son doing?" Mu Hanzhang stood up, subconsciously grasped the handle of the knife at his waist, and pressed his thumb on the button of the machine.
The man saw Mu Hanzhang's face clearly, and the curvature of his lips could not help but expand a bit: "I dare to ask the sword of the son, but the ancient famous Hanzhang sword?" He said the sword, but his eyes did not stay on On the knife, he stared at Mu Hanzhang Junmei's face.
Mu Hanzhang frowned slightly: "This knife is a gift from a friend, and I don't know its name." The scabbard of Hanzhang's treasured knife is old and dull. Even if it was washed by a silversmith later, it is still ordinary. Recognized, must be a well-informed person.
"Can you lend me a look?" The man took a step forward and almost came close to Mu Hanzhang's ear, and the next moment he was dragged back by his collar.
Jing Shao was holding a bowl of wontons, and as soon as he walked out of the bamboo forest, he saw a Dengzi approaching his own princess, with a hand reaching his waist, and immediately exploded with anger, and immediately threw the wontons, three or two steps. He rushed over, grabbed the man's collar, and punched him in the eye socket.
The man didn't respond slowly, he raised his hand almost subconsciously and blocked Jing Shao's fist. Jing Shao was about to hit his chin with a backhand. When he saw his face clearly, he couldn't help but be stunned. He has seen this face for so many years, and he will never admit his mistake. This person is the most important purpose of his trip to Jiangnan - Gu Huaiqing, the king of Huainan!
The momentary stun was enough for Gu Huaiqing to get out of his control. He turned his head and slammed into Jing Shao's facade. Jing Shao immediately raised his hand to block, but the fist did not fall, but quickly closed the fist. Also jumped away.
Gu Huaiqing straightened her clothes gracefully, and looked at Jing Shao coldly: "It's not a gentleman to beat people indiscriminately." The two guards in the pavilion next to him heard the words and ran out quickly to protect him.
Jing Shao ignored him, hugged his princess and looked at him: "Jun Qing, are you alright?"
Mu Hanzhang shook his head: "I'm fine." Seeing Gu Huaiqing's arrogant expression, he gently leaned into Jing Shao's arms and stroked his back, which was tensed with anger.
But in Jing Shao's opinion, this comfort is very wrong. Jun Qing rarely takes the initiative to snuggle into his arms. In this way, he must be wronged! The anger that had just subsided burned up again, no matter what King Huainan or King Huaibei he was, beat him first!
A moment of confusion flashed across Gu Huaiqing's face. Just now, he only paid attention to the treasured saber, but didn't pay attention to these two people. In broad daylight, they were so intimate and ambiguous, it was estimated that they were the husbands who were married! Before he could apologize, Jing Shao rushed over again.
Signaling the two guards not to interfere, Gu Huaiqing stepped forward to answer.
Jing Shao punched the front door, and when the opponent raised his hand, he suddenly lowered his body and swept his leg. Gu Huaiqing immediately jumped high, raised his leg and kicked at Jing Shao, Jing Shao turned around and kicked his leg away, and then flew up.
The two men's kung fu were evenly matched, and the fight was indistinguishable.
Mu Hanzhang was stunned as they watched the competition between the two from the eight scenes, which developed into eye-jamming, shady tricks, and finally turned into rolling on the ground and fighting each other without skill.
The people around listening to the music came to watch the excitement, and the two guards swiped and drew their knives, frightening those idle young masters, and they ran away. When the boss heard the movement, he hurriedly came up to dissuade him. With this commotion, the business was gone in an instant. Mu Hanzhang stepped forward and gave him a Nanhai Pearl as compensation, and the boss's wrinkled face immediately smiled happily: "Several students slowly discuss, I'll make you a pot of tea!"
The two people on the ground didn't care whether it was shameful to fight like this, until they both had bruised noses and bruised faces and were panting. Only then did they reluctantly separate and lie on their backs on the ground full of fallen leaves, panting.
I thought it was going to be a truce, but after three breaths, the two looked at each other and burst into flames at the same time. Gu Huaiqing looked at Jing Shao, who had bluish lips and nosebleeds, with a vicious look on his face, and finally couldn't help laughing, and fell to the ground with his head raised: "Hahaha, I didn't know you two were husband and wife, how offended you were. , brother, just hit me again if you're angry!"
Jing Shao ignored him, got up from the ground, and kicked him.
Gu Huaiqing: "..." When people hear this kind of words, don't they all turn their battles into jade and silk? This guy is really… so funny!
Mu Hanzhang hurriedly stepped forward, and the boss asked for a cloth towel to wipe Jing Shao's face: "It's okay, why did you fight again?"
"Humph!" Jing Shao snorted, but it was a little difficult to end the current situation.
I was thinking of going to the south of the Yangtze River to meet the King of Huainan and discuss the future with him, but I didn't expect to meet him here. In the last life, even though the two of them fought for so long, Jing Shao never regarded this person as an enemy, but as a once-in-a-lifetime opponent, or even a confidant whom he had known for a long time! Therefore, this time, regarding the Huainan fief, he had another plan of his own, but unexpectedly it developed into such a situation as soon as they met.
Gu Huaiqing got up from the ground, rubbed her sore shoulders, and grabbed Jing Shao's arm: "I don't know each other, I've never met someone like me, I want to swoop in with you today. Brother!" Thinking about what Jing Shao did when he was just fighting, he had never seen anyone with extraordinary backgrounds and strong martial arts who was as shameless as himself! Truly a once-in-a-lifetime confidant!
"Ah?" Jing Shao was stunned for a while, this King of Huainan really didn't play cards according to common sense, how did this fight become a sworn brother
A prince, a vassal king, sworn as brothers, what does this mean? Jing Shao frowned and looked at him: "Young Master's status is definitely extraordinary, I'm afraid it's inappropriate to swoop with people casually?"
Who knew that Gu Huaiqing ordered the guards to prepare candles and yellow paper without hesitation, and pulled him to stand up: "No matter who I am or who you are, confidants are hard to come by, I've decided on this today!"
Mu Hanzhang looked at the two people with bruised noses and swollen faces, and couldn't help but pursed his lips and laughed softly.
Burning yellow paper and killing chicken blood, Gu Huaiqing said that wind is rain, so he prepared everything in a moment, and pulled Jing Shao to come to worship.
"Huang Tian is above, I'm Gu Huaiqing, I'm here today, with..." Gu Huaiqing held the incense in his hand and said halfway through, suddenly paused and turned his head with a chuckle, "Brother, I haven't asked your name yet."
"..." Jing Shao sighed helplessly. King Huainan, who was a few years younger than his previous life, was still so unpredictable, "Jing Shao."
The smile on Gu Huaiqing's lips froze immediately. "Jing" was the emperor's surname, and there were not many people with the surname Jing in this world. The only person named Jing Shao who appeared in Jiangnan at this time was King Cheng.
Jing Shao imitated Gu Huaiqing's half-smile: "How, do you still worship?"
"Bye! Why don't you bow!" Gu Huaiqing came back to his senses and stuffed the incense into Jing Shao's hands, "Huang Tian is above, I, Gu Huaiqing, are here today and become brothers with Jing Shao. Difficult to match!"
