Changle Floating Life

The Four Seas Casino in Rouge Hutong in the capital city is booming, and they don't open until the afternoon to greet customers.This morning, it was raining non-stop. A few servants of the gambling house were sweeping and tidying the pavement at the door. Only one of them said: "There is so much rain this spring, I'm afraid there will be less harvest in autumn." One person sighed and said: "This prosperous age is coming to an end. Last year it was drought, but this year it is flooding. It's really Wang Xiaoer's Chinese New Year. Every year is not as good as it is."

The third person said: "Your Majesty has issued an edict of guilt, isn't it sunny on the 25th?"

As soon as he started talking, the expressions of the other two people changed.One person looked around and saw that the neighbors were busy with their own business, and the gambler hadn't come to the door, so he brushed over and whispered: "Don't you know, that was the day that a strange thing happened in the capital." "What strange thing?" The three stood together and whispered. "The yamen pardoned a group of prisoners and they went to Youzhou. After leaving the city, they were in Beigang. Suddenly, a tiger jumped out of the mountain and took a prisoner in its mouth." Fall into the jaws of a tiger!"

"Hey, what do you know! That's a god showing up to rescue a good man. I heard that the man came down from the stars in the sky, and the blood of the late emperor flowed among the people. He grew up in peace, but somehow he was involved in the princess mansion's rebellion. Last year and this spring, the weather was very different, and everyone said that today's virtues are bad, the case of the princess mansion is not clear, and there are grievances rampant in the world, which is why the heavens have brought disasters."

The three of them were talking happily, when suddenly there was a sharp cough on their heads, and the three of them looked up, and at some time, the shopkeeper of the Four Seas Gambling Shop had already walked beside them.The three of them quickly stood up with their hands down.Li Sihai glanced at them, and said: "Don't talk about government affairs indiscriminately. The world is governed by the Tao, and ghosts are not gods."

All three answered yes, and Li Sihai stepped into the shop.Seeing him leaving, the three of them murmured behind their backs: "I'm so sour, what do you mean?"

"It means that if the world is governed by the righteous way, the ghosts and ghosts will not be able to cause trouble. That is to say, you will not be afraid of the shadow if you are upright." A little maid jumped out from behind the door panel and said to them, pouting and grimacing.After the little maid finished speaking, she followed Li Sihai into the gambling house.

Li Sihai yawned all the way, walked through the patio, and was about to lift his feet up the stairs, when suddenly his heart shuddered for no reason, and goose bumps covered his body.He looked up from the patio, and there seemed to be something white and fluffy lying beside the railing on the third floor, with a big tail hanging down and wagging from time to time.

The little girl, Lan Shan, came over and said strangely: "Shopkeeper, why don't you go upstairs? Did you feel weak when you walked around the shop yesterday? Wait for me to carry you on your back?" When he was stable, he turned around and said helplessly: "Go and make tea, we have some distinguished guests who want to serve good tea." After saying this, he walked up the stairs with a slow pace, just like usual.

Xiao Lanshan wondered who would have the leisure to visit the gambling house this early in the morning, but he still jumped to the kitchen stove to light a fire and boil water.Then he dug out the highest-grade hospitality tea set from Four Seas Gambling House, soaked in the sparrow tongue that was newly purchased this spring, and walked to the account room on the third floor with it.As soon as she went up to the third floor, she heard a burst of strange snoring sounds, and a stench of wild animals wafted from her nostrils.So she opened her eyes and looked, which scared the crap out of her.

Not far from the railing, there lay a lazy white-fronted tiger with hanging eyes. The tiger's body was wet from the rain, its tail was flicking around on the floor, and its head rested on its paws, squinting and dozing.

She was holding the tea tray, and her legs became sore and limp in an instant, unable to take a step.At this time, Li Sihai shouted in the account room: "Is it Lanshan? Come in, it's okay." Xiao Lanshan reluctantly responded, his voice had changed.The big worm raised its head at this time, and looked at her with green eyes like copper bells. After a while, it slowly tilted its head to an angle, opened its bloody mouth, and stuck out a long tongue, wheezing like a big worm. Like a dog.

Is this a show of affection?She was afraid and wanted to laugh, so she walked over with vigor, and the tiger's head turned with her footsteps.After finally walking to the door of the accounting room, the door had already opened without wind.There were two people sitting in the room, one was shopkeeper Li Sihai, and the other was wearing a black cloth robe with a silver mask on his face, only two eyes were exposed.At first glance, it doesn't look like a good person.

Seeing that Lan Shan was timid and afraid to enter for a moment, the man took off the mask, smiled gently at her and said, "You have grown up so much! Do you remember me?" "Master Gu!" The little maid exclaimed, obviously knowing her This person.The man smiled at her, then turned his body back to Li Sihai.

Lan Shan quickly arranged the tea and water, and then retreated.She walked past the tiger, and suddenly the animal sneezed, spraying her with saliva and rain.She looked at the tiger, and the tiger tilted its head again, staring at her with wide-open eyes, its ears twitched, and its tail swept back and forth on her legs.

"Do you want me to play with you?" Tiger tilted his head as if he understood what people said.Curious, Lan Shan slowly rubbed over, first reaching out to touch the tiger's body, if it hadn't been drenched in the rain, it should feel better.She became bold enough to shave the tiger's beard, but the beast didn't even bother her.

In the wing room, after Gu Su took off his mask, he didn't put it on again.Li Sihai stared at his face as before, and couldn't help sighing: "Amei, you haven't changed at all. I'm much older." Gu Su raised his eyebrows, and there was an inexplicable desolation and loneliness in his voice: " Everything in the world can be known, do you think there is anyone in this world who is not old or dead? I only know the state of mind of the patriarch back then."

Li Sihai sighed with a smile, and said: "I heard that you had a big somersault in Cangshan Mountain. There are not many people who can deceive your old man. Whoever has such great skills, I will burn a stick of incense for him. " Gu Su squinted his eyes, and his tone turned cold: "This person deceived Master Xie and angered Master to death. I don't care about it." Li Sihai said quickly: "You came to me, is it because you are short of money?" Gu Su Only then did he smile again: "Last year I was poor, but this year I don't even have a cone. I'm looking forward to your relief."

Li Sihai got up and went under the next cabinet, took out a small green cloth bundle, saw Gu Su reach out to pick it up, but took it back.Gu Su raised his eyebrows and looked at him puzzled, Li Sihai said slyly: "You can't give it to me for nothing, last time you wrote me a plaque, what do you want to exchange this time?" Gu Su waited quietly for him to speak, Li Sihai thought and thought , smiled slightly: "Forget it, I didn't think of it for a while, I owe it first."

The two opened the door together and came out. Gu Su saw the tiger outside the door and the little maid having a good time, both amused and angry, so he gave a light snort.The big worm stood upright with its ears upright, arched its body, pawed the ground with its claws, and showed great power. It changed its stupid and cute cat-like appearance just now, and showed the demeanor of the king of beasts.Li Sihai frowned and said: "This place is no better than Beijiang, don't you think it's eye-catching?" Gu Su looked at him apologetically, "I'll put it back in the mountains after I've settled in Beijing. It's true that there is no car Horse money is the only way to work on your feet."

Li Sihai looked at the sky with both eyes, and was speechless for a while.

Gu Su threw the burden to the tiger, and the beast bit it and held it in its mouth.Gu Su pointed to the downstairs, the tiger stood up slowly, his eyes were like will-o'-the-wisps, he jumped and jumped, and actually jumped directly from the third floor to the second floor and then into the courtyard.Gu Su beckoned to Li Sihai, and walked down the stairs gracefully.

Li Sihai leaned against the railing, looked at the back and remained silent.Lan Shan asked softly from the side: "Shopkeeper, why does Master Gu look the same as ten years ago, as if he is still younger?" Li Sihai leaned against the wooden handrail and just said "huh".

In Prince Duan's mansion, Pei Zhaoye came back from court and was changing clothes in the study when he suddenly heard someone report outside the door: "My lord, Mr. Ye Shu is begging to see you." Enter.

When Ye Jianqing came in, he was wearing a green shirt with a collar and a leather belt around his waist, and his complexion was not bad.He was about to kowtow when he entered the door, and Pei Zhaoye hurriedly stepped forward to help him up: "Why do you need to do such a great gift?" Ye Jianqing stood up slowly, looked at him and said, "Thank you, my lord. I'm the queen of the guilty minister. Your Majesty Meng The emperor's kindness is great, His Highness did not avoid suspicion, and rescued each other out of the ordinary, Ye Jianqing will tie a straw ring in the next life to repay the great kindness."

Pei Zhaoye's expression turned cold, and he said: "Are you telling the truth? I treat you like a confidant, not a sense of kindness."

Ye Jianqing's face gradually paled, she bit her lip and said nothing.Pei Zhaoye was a little bit remorseful, and felt hesitant to vomit, so he pulled him and said, "Jianqing, when you were in Jinling last year, you took me out to play. At that time, you said that when the fake is true, the real is also fake, and there is a place for doing nothing." Not yet. I want to ask, how sincere are you in treating me?" Ye Jianqing's eye sockets were black and blue, and the fine eyelashes trembled, and suddenly tears flashed: "Your Highness, what happened when I was young, I don't remember very clearly. If there is something that offends His Highness, please forgive him."

Pei Zhaoye had nothing to do with him, the tender tofu fell into the ashes, and he couldn't pat or blow it up.It took him a long time before he let out a long sigh, and said: "In the autumn of the third year of Taiping, Your Majesty celebrated the fiftieth birthday of the imperial aunt. You came to Ganjing with your grandma and lived in the old apartment in the palace. I only knew about the biological mother at that time." , crying secretly in the garden alone. You dropped a ball and it rolled to my feet, remember?"

The little Marquis of Anning had her double chin tied up, her forehead and eyebrows leveled, if she hadn't been wearing boy's clothes, Pei Zhaoye would have thought he was the son of some noble relative in the inner court.Seeing that his face was full of tears, Xiao Jianqing asked him curiously, "Are you embarrassed to still be crying at such an age?" Pei Zhaoye hurriedly wiped away his tears because of being seen by a stranger, and said stubbornly, "I didn't cry. It was blown by the wind." Xiao Jianqing rolled his eyes, and asked again: "The whole palace is decorated with lanterns and festoons, full of joy, why are you sad?"

Pei Zhaoye was poked at the center of the matter, tears were streaming down, he couldn't help it, choked up and said: "I just found out today that my mother died a long time ago. I have never burned paper money for her, I don't know if she will live well after death. "Small Jianqing said: "Don't cry, it should be fine." Pei Zhaoye was startled: "How do you know?" That’s why you know it’s good.”

This was clearly a sophistry, but Pei Zhaoye suddenly relaxed and burst out laughing.

Ye Jianqing racked his brains, thinking of these things in a daze. "It's embarrassing for His Highness, I still remember a little bit of jokes. If I can feel relieved with His Highness, Jianqing's life will not be in vain."

Pei Zhaoye pulled him to sit down at the desk, stood behind him, and stroked the broken hair around his ears.These two figures are extremely charming at a glance.But in fact, Pei Zhaoye looked through the window and was scanning the movement in the courtyard: "I know that the regret in your heart is that you can't enter the ancestral temple because of the grievances of the emperor's aunt, and you can't hold a sacrifice to enjoy it openly. But the father is also angry. People related to this matter will not forgive lightly, so I have been afraid to say it out loud, for fear that it will be difficult to speak again if I am rejected. I will keep this matter in mind. Now let me ask you, do you have any plans?"

He expressed Ye Jianqing's heart in one word, Ye Jianqing's shoulders trembled unconsciously, and he lowered his eyebrows and said: "This case is an imperial decision, and Jianqing dare not complain in his heart, nor do he have such extravagant hopes. There are still a few acres of sacrifice land in the Ling family, after I go back, I will plant beans at the foot of the South Mountain, and this will be the rest of my life."

Pei Zhaoye looked at the wind and rain outside the window, and said lightly: "If you think so, why did you come back to Beijing? Where were you and who were you with in the past six months? I really don't know anything? In the name of insult, it's a joke. Alright, the picture is big."

The cold rain came into the house along with the wind, and the room was full of damp and cold air, mixed with a killing intent that seemed to be absent.When it comes to this point, it is too late to see, and it has to be a showdown.After Ye Jianqing considered for a moment, he said: "Your Highness saved me, I dare not forget it for a day. Your Highness is open and honest with me, and Jian Qing dare not hide his heart. To be honest, I haven't dreamed of Jiangnan for a long time. Don't you hate that you have hidden your bow early, but you finally know that it is difficult to borrow a sword, and it is like pulling out a mountain. If Your Highness can look down on Graduation, I am willing to drive under my command."

Pei Zhaoye stretched his eyebrows, clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "Okay, okay!"

Ye Jianqing breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and looked back at him and said, "Your Highness..." Pei Zhaoye made a stop motion, and said softly, "It's just the two of us. I like to hear you call me cousin."

Ye Jianqing gritted his teeth and said: "Cousin, the abolition of the establishment is related to the overall situation, and we need to make plans early. I heard that the empress is seriously ill, I'm afraid if something happens..."

Hearing that he was open and honest, Pei Zhaoye no longer pretended to be hypocritical, and was very happy in his heart, but said: "I will talk about it later. I will find you a job in the palace, how about it? You can live here."

Ye Jianqing thought for a while, and said, "I'd better go out. Don't make things difficult for my cousin. Gan Jing is so big, it's not hard to find a place to stay. There are thousands of households with a body of a ruler. What's more, my cousin needs someone to run outside." By saying this, he entrusted his wealth and life in Pei Zhaoye's hands!

You don't need a heavy hammer to beat the drum, so you can see him right!Pei Zhaoye was moved and joyful again, his heart blossomed with joy.Can't help holding his hand, said: "Jianqing, I don't have many people who can really do things in my hands. There is no one who punishes Qiangu without using others. Even if you pay attention everywhere, you will inevitably be deceived by others. Come and help me, I am very happy. If there is a day when something big happens, needless to say, you will have a place by my side."

It sounded like the promise was based on fame and wealth, but Ye Jianqing withdrew his hand in shock, knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Highness is righteous, and Jianqing swears allegiance to the death."

In the 16th year of Taiping, near the Dragon Boat Festival, a distinguished guest came to Songfeng Pavilion in Liuli Alley.This man was about seventeen or eighteen years old, dressed as a nobleman, waving a jade bone fan, followed by a long suit, carrying a golden birdcage.Seeing his noble face and elegant demeanor, the shopkeeper at the front desk rushed up to say hello: "My lord, just take a look, the calligraphy and painting cultural relics here are absolutely genuine."

The son-in-law was humming, as expected, he was swaying here and there, looking around casually.The shopkeeper followed behind him, and saw him stop in front of a pair of "Treading Snow and Selling Wine".There are only a few plum blossoms in the painting, and two rows of footprints under the plum tree. There is neither snow nor wine, but it is infinitely imaginative.

Seeing his expression of admiration, the shopkeeper took the opportunity to say: "Master, you really have good eyesight. This painting is an authentic work of Yuan Huizhi. It is not easy to find in the market, but it is the treasure of our town hall."

The young prince looked at it, and walked to the side next to a painting of "Naughty Boys Playing" by Wang Ran, a great master of the former dynasty.There were several children in the painting who were throwing dice, the young man laughed when he saw it, and pointed at the painting, "Shopkeeper, your painting is fake."

The shopkeeper's face froze, and he said solemnly: "My lord, the shop does not sell fakes."

The young master pointed to the painting and said: "Wang Ran's painting is the most important detail, and the dew on the dragonfly does not fall. You can see that the three dice are clearly six, and the dealer should also say six. Six is ​​to shut up to make a sound." However, the banker opened his mouth, which is clearly unreasonable, and it is undoubtedly a fake."

The shopkeeper took a closer look at the child in the middle, and he really looked like he was singing and crying. He couldn't laugh or cry and said, "My lord, how can you be so serious?" The young man raised his eyebrows and said, "If you can't tell, it's a fake." The long follower behind him also came up to help.

The most important reputation in the calligraphy, painting and antique industry, the shopkeeper was disturbed by him for a while, so he could only bow and say: "My lord, wait a moment, I will find someone who can explain clearly." After he finished speaking, he walked into the next compartment In the cubicle, there is a young guy who is bending over the table to frame old paintings, his hands are covered with paste.The shopkeeper lowered his voice and said, "Little Yezi, come out and have a look. There is a shit-stirring person in the shop. Think about how to get rid of him."

That little guy was Ye Jianqing, he had heard the conversation outside in the cubicle, and he was frowning at this moment, wiped his hands on the rag on the table, and walked out with the shopkeeper.

The young master outside heard the footsteps and turned around. When he saw the person behind the shopkeeper, his eyes narrowed and he showed a malicious smile.Ye Jianqing wore a cloth gown with a webbing belt, the clothes were very poor, and the cuffs were washed white, revealing the warp and weft threads of the cloth.He looked at the other party's noble spirit, and he was vigilant in his heart because he was not kind.

The author has something to say: The young master was sold for money again~~~

The last stalk seems to be in the officialdom, I can't remember clearly~~~

I didn't think about the title of the next chapter, and it happens that there will be no list next week, so I slowly think about it~~~~~
