The day of fortune-telling for the dragon

Chapter 54 Charm - Redemption

Xuan Long didn't finish his sentence, but both of them knew that they meant to wait until tonight.

Mr. Hua Xiao didn't have Xuanlong's calm endurance, after Xuanlong left, he had to drink a few large cups of cold tea before he calmed down.He sat on the edge of the bed, biting the cherries in his mouth as if he couldn't bite them. After swallowing, the sweetness came to his heart, a little greasy, a little numb, all kinds of flavors.

Grandma, your grandson can't stand it anymore.

As soon as Hua Jue calmed down, Xuanlong's face appeared in her mind.Hua Jue suspected that she was too involved in the drama, and she had the force majeure of breaking her sleeves, so she couldn't hold back when facing Xuanlong's face.

Hua Jue had a pile of gold ornaments on her head, and she wanted to climb to the bed and roll around wantonly, but she couldn't do it, so she threw herself on her stomach, hugging a soft pillow in her arms.Under the soft pillow, he found a few picture books, which were the Longyang Erotic Palace in Feng Huang's room.

Hua Jue casually flipped through a few pages, blushed more and more as she looked at them, and threw them aside tremblingly.He tried to get Xuanlong out of his mind, but he couldn't succeed, so he just memorized the Heart Sutra.Reciting scriptures in her mouth, the effect improved a lot, and a bald-headed Xuanlong began to appear in Hua Jue's mind, sitting on the floor washing dishes... knocking on wooden fish.

He sighed.

The ancients said that color imparts soul and harmony, which is roughly like this.Mr. Hua Xiao only loves beauty, he is crazy about everyone, and never accepts money from good-looking people. It must be retribution.I thought that the most retribution was poverty, but I didn't expect it to be a dragon.

Hua Jue was bored for a long time, and it was rare for her to get into a corner without finding a solution for herself, so she remained in a daze until night, when the first string of firecrackers exploded outside the building, crackling and crackling several tens of feet long, which startled him.

The firecrackers started from the bottom and burned upwards slowly. The sparks burst open the tightly packed red paper. Whenever the firecrackers reached a floor, people walked to the window and pushed the window to look out.This is called showing one's head in public, each holding an autumn fan, just showing a figure, and lined up by the window talking and laughing, has already made the hearts of the downstairs fluttering, and they can't help but step into the door, intending to have a detailed look.Basically all the Duanxiu in Jiangling came, not Duanxiu, but people who could eat both men and women also came, and the music hall was completely surrounded.

The fire-jumping dragon flew straight into the sky, and when it reached the top floor on Huajue's side, it startled him and ran away following the crackling sound.Hua Jue jumped out of the bed and saw a white smoke outside the window. When she poked her head out, it was already burnt out, so she could barely look up and saw a string of firecracker butts.

Someone shouted from below: "Brother! Be careful not to lose your eyes!"

The smoke and sand fell rustlingly, Hua Jue avoided it in time and shrank back.It's just that the short moment of his appearance made the people watching downstairs fall silent for a moment.

In fact, the floor is high, and the people below may not be able to see his face clearly, but everyone knows that the top card is on the top floor. People who have never seen it before look at it out of curiosity, and naturally beautify what they see. This is one of them. .Second, there are also people who claim that they have sharp eyesight. They spread it wildly and praised it to the fullest. They caught this talk and praised it so loudly that everyone unconsciously took the glimpse of it just now to their hearts, as if they saw an exiled immortal.

Among them, there are many miscellaneous fish in Huanguan in order to attract customers. What they have to do is to brag, especially with Hua Jue as the top card.Fortunately, the people in Jiangling are simple, and they like this very much...not the common people, but those who work in Jiangling also like this.

Xuan Long sat in the carriage parked by the roadside, lifted the curtain slightly and looked out.The word "Feng Huang" was constantly being preached around, which made him frown slightly. When he found the window, the person by the window had already left.

The Huan Hall will have to wait for another incense stick before letting people in. Logically, he, the prince, has the privilege to be seated first, but Xuan Long found out that there is a custom of adorning lanterns in the Huan Hall, so he stayed first.

This custom is that whoever spends the most money on the prostitute, in the end, the name of the benefactor will be signed under the name of the prostitute, and it will be made public on the first day of the Double Ninth Festival. small gift.For example, handmade snacks, handkerchiefs and the like.Although the gift is small, many people fought for it.

"Hua Jue...I mean Feng Huang, how many lanterns are there under his name?"

Xuanlong grabbed a subordinate to ask, and the subordinate replied after getting the answer: "The one ranked first is a sea merchant named Yang, whose name is 930 Erduo."

The subordinate said anxiously: "My lord, what do you want?"

Xuanlong was a little impatient: "How many people are under his name?"

The subordinate was stunned: "This...a total of 430 four lanterns, one five taels of silver, about 4 taels."

Xuanlong said: "Then I will pay 4 taels to buy all the lanterns under his name, and I want them to destroy all his names, leaving only my name."

4 taels is not a small number. This amount of money can buy about the size of a city in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.The eyes of the subordinates were as big as copper bells, and some couldn't believe what they heard: their princes have always regarded money as dung, and it is true that they don't use it much on weekdays.It's not that he can't afford to spend this money - everyone knows that King Ziyang never cares about sex, and spends tens of thousands of taels for a young man... It's really not like it!

The subordinates were finally sure that their prince was really tempted this time.After seeing this point clearly, he didn't dare to be negligent at all, and went to work without hesitation, but was dragged back by Xuanlong halfway.Xuanlong's eyes were cold: "Besides, tell other people that I have already made Feng Huang this person, and no one should think of him."

The subordinate looked in awe at his own prince who suddenly showed a childish stingy side, wiped off his sweat and said yes, and went to order in a hurry.After a while, Xuanlong in the sedan chair was satisfied to hear the passers-by's topic change from "that Mr. Fenghuang is really beautiful" to "such a beautiful woman has a famous flower" and "he seems to be the king of Ziyang". Satisfied smile.

Inside the building, everything was in order, and the door slowly opened.The Broken Sleeves entered one after another, one or two were as excited as Chinese New Year, and the venue was extremely lively for a while.Those who couldn't sit down moved their horses and sat on the threshold, while others simply stood, their eyes wandering around, as if they were in ecstasy.

Xuanlong naturally sat down at the table.Hua Jue was facing him, sitting by the screen on the other side, her face was also tightly covered.

"What, 4 taels?" Hua Jue just heard a few words from a servant boy, and turned pale with shock: "Isn't he already planning to redeem me? Why do you need to spend so much money?"

The little boy pursed his lips and smiled, unaware that the person in front of him was an incomprehensible stupefied wooden man, unable to figure out the twists and turns in the process, only regarded him as blaming, served him tea, and left.Hua Jue sincerely felt that Xuanlong was a prodigal, he thought for a long time, if Xuanlong wanted to give money, he should wait for a while before he went to the palace.The money to buy the lanterns couldn't reach him, so Jiangling Music Square was cheap for nothing.

The more he thought about it, the more his heart ached, and he couldn't help lifting a bit of the veil, secretly looking at Xuanlong, and glared at him angrily.Xuan Long has been looking at him, seeing him looking over at this moment, he couldn't help but smile knowingly, and Yaoyao toasted him with a glass of light wine.The two were too far apart, and couldn't see each other's expressions clearly. Xuanlong naturally didn't know that Hua Jue was seriously despising him, and felt very good about himself.

However, Hua Jue was reminded by this blurred glance. When he saw Xuanlong, the confused feeling in the morning resurfaced again, which disturbed his mind.

Afterwards, the flying flower banquet, the wine competition and the poetry competition, and the newcomers' first performance at the museum failed to attract his attention. It was not until Hua Jue heard Fenghuang's name when bidding for the buyer that he came back to his senses.

Although he has been pre-appointed by King Ziyang, he still has to go through the cutscene to show how popular this young man is through the bidding auction.Hua Dabao stood by Hua Jue's side like a bodyguard. The cat was completely out of the situation, and even lowered his head to discuss with Hua Jue: "I think the prince will buy you, for sure."

Hua Jue smiled.

Xiao Fenghuang secretly drank a lot of wine, but was already drunk.Hua Jue held the little phoenix in her hands and touched it lightly, a bit unable to tell whether the little fat bird was happy or sad.After getting along for so many days, Hua Jue actually felt it. This little fat bird is very emotional and hypocritical. The illusion of 20 years ago can't make it recall the past scenery, it can only make it feel more like a world away.

The one you love is gone, what can you do?Even if you don't know if your lover is the one who killed you.

Hua Jue made a nest for Little Phoenix with a handkerchief, put it in, and told Hua Dabao not to disturb its sleep.At this moment, the sound of gongs and drums sounded, and the bidding reached the most intense stage. The real Xuanlong did not show his face, and it all depended on his subordinates to shout the price at the top of their lungs.

Hua Jue also noticed that Mr. Sang and the city lord also came over. The two of them did not go to the table, but sat side by side on the ponytail under the hall, and bid several times in a decent manner, pretending to compete with Xuanlong some.The two enthusiastically piled up the numbers higher and higher, making it clear that they wanted to take the opportunity to mess things up.

After that, everything went smoothly, money and goods settled.Xuanlong left quietly after the crowd receded, while Hua Jue had her makeup reapplied and sent to a sedan chair parked after he arrived.

Only Feng Ge came to see him off in the hall.Hua Jue was a little surprised, and accepted the gift from Feng Ge.

Feng Ge said: "Brother, you have developed, you will never be able to play cards with me again in the future, you have to be good."

Hua Jue said: "You also take care."

Feng Ge was sincerely happy for him, and couldn't help admiring the grandeur of the palace and Hua Jue's good life. Suddenly, he asked with some doubts: "Feng Huang, why didn't you see such a big happy event when you redeemed yourself to enter the mansion this time?" Your father and mother?"

Hua Jue was taken aback.

He had forgotten that Fenghuang still had family members. Before that, he himself had not found a home, and he had been depressed several times. Only now did he realize that Fenghuang's parents were still there, and there was a younger brother who was two or three years old at home.As we all know, Feng Huang has a bad relationship with his family, and the monthly money is sent by the servant boy. Although the relationship is not good, it doesn't mean that such a big event doesn't come?The hall should have been notified.

Hua Jue didn't care, but Feng Ge was afraid that he would be sad when he thought of his family, so he quickly stuffed him with a string of beads: "This is for you, here you are, I have never met my mother, I heard that she left it for me Things that have been opened can keep you safe for the rest of your life. I only have you as a friend in the restaurant, so you can take it, there are a lot of jewelry around me."

Hua Jue looked at the string of beads that Feng Ge handed over: very common agate stones, after 20 years the commercial roads will open up, and there are small stalls selling this thing everywhere at the gate of Jiangling City, and they can be bought for a few pennies.Although ordinary, this string of things has been preserved very well, clean and moist, obviously cherished by people.

Hua Jue took it and smiled at Feng Ge when she saw Feng Ge again: "I'm leaving."

He leaned out and grabbed him: "Wait a minute, you gave me your mother's safety string, and I have something to give you." He searched around quickly, but at last he couldn't find the paper, so he Tear off a corner of the fine gauze on the short hood, and carefully write four words with a judge's pen: "I Chang'an."

Hua Jue warned: "Be sure to put it away, don't break it. This..." He thought for a while, and added: "It's very useful."

Feng Ge took it, looked at it with some doubts, then folded it and put it in the sleeve pocket.His eyes are also very serious: "I will."

The sedan chair moved slowly, and the curtain of the sedan chair was drawn down.Leaning on the soft cushion behind her, Hua Jue felt a little emotional, if Xiao Fenghuang knew that he had this trip, so he would take his friends to heart, would life be more open?

He sent Fengge I Chang'an's verdict and thanked Xiao Fenghuang.

In the night, the lights go away.With his back facing the hustle and bustle of the dark alley, Wumei stood quietly, watching the bright red sedan chair full of festivities go away.

"I still haven't been able to see the man's face clearly today." He took out a pen and paper and wrote slowly, "King Ziyang has redeemed him. Although he is a man, he is very important. The rest is unknown."

He whistled and stuffed the note into the bamboo tube on the bird's paw.This is a carrier pigeon that goes back and forth between Pingshan and Jiangling towns, Wumei specially bought it, just to send a message to Sanqing at any time.

"I don't know for the time being..." He sighed leisurely, and suddenly bowed his hands in the direction where the sedan chair disappeared, "Although I don't know why that guy is so afraid of you, but you sold me Phoenix Tears, I think you should be a good one." People. May you find a good man."
