In March, the wind is warm and the sun is beautiful, and it’s a good season to go out and play.
Along the way, men and women were full of spring breeze. Some sat together to recite poems and play lyrics; some walked side by side, admiring the flowers and spring scenery; some were more bold and unrestrained, not paying attention to the eyes of others, playing and chasing... In short, the whole The countryside is full of vitality, which makes people feel very comfortable. Even if they are a little unhappy in their hearts, seeing the cheerful figures beating along the way and feeling the energetic atmosphere of youth will sweep away these glooms.
But although the spring time was good, Yingping's mood was just the opposite - looking at these boys and girls, his mind became even heavier. Seeing some Chun Xin who couldn't even hold back their budding emotions, holding hands and heading into the woods for a hug, Ying Ping even sneered -
"Bah - I... the world is really going downhill! The world is going downhill!"
Yiyi and Ye Changshan followed behind. Originally, the three of them walked in front and two behind, which was quite harmonious. Looking at the boys and girls making love to each other, Ye Changshan felt itchy in his heart. I don't know whether it was intentional or not, but Yiyi came close to him several times, and the girl's hot little hand gently brushed the edge of his palm, which made Ye Changshan's heart beat faster, and even made him feel the urge to hold the girl's hand next to him. Impulsive, but as Yingping's angry complaints came from ahead, the turmoil in Ye Changshan's heart suddenly disappeared.
The folk customs of the Tang Dynasty were actually very open, so scenes like this were no longer surprising, but now Yingping's sense of involvement was so strong that he couldn't help but feel a little angry when he saw this.
Isn't this just for relaxation? Why is your mentality getting worse as it becomes more scattered? Seeing Yingping scolding him as he walked, Ye Changshan stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder.
"What's wrong?"
Yingping didn't pay attention to Ye Changshan, still looking at the people passing by and cursing, as if his vegetables were spoiled.
Ye Changshan looked back at Yiyi, who spread her hands and was helpless. Ye Changshan did not ask for trouble, and was ready to let Yingping go ahead alone and continue cursing.
Suddenly, Yingping turned to Ye Changshan and said abruptly: "Is there any way to escape from the marriage?"
"What? Escape from marriage?" Ye Changshan didn't believe his ears.
"Yes, just like Young Master Jiang did before." Yingping said matter-of-factly.
"The emperor is running away from marriage? Where are you planning to escape to?"
"This... what you said makes sense..." Yingping thought for a moment and realized that he really had no place to escape now. Before Ye Changshan could finish the conversation, Yingping asked again: "Then is there any way to change someone?"
"..."
"It doesn't seem possible..."
Seeing that this road was blocked, Yingping changed his perspective and rethought the issue. In just a short moment, Yingping seemed to have found an idea and asked, "How about we find a way to bring down the Cui family?"
"..."
Ye Changshan was speechless.
Seeing Ye Changshan's eyes as if looking at a fool, Yingping also knew that this was not reliable. Even when Emperor Tang was in power, it would have taken a lot of effort to get the next big official in the dynasty, not to mention that Cui Ren was Wang Yanqing's right-hand man, not to mention that he didn't have any power in his hands now.
Yingping was deeply unwilling to give in, but he had no choice at this time. He gritted his teeth and said: "Is it true that I... was just... arranged like this? No! You can't let that old witch succeed so easily! If this is the case, If you let her have her way, life will be really hard for her from now on!"
Yingping suddenly made up his mind. Although he hadn't thought of how to deal with it yet, he couldn't sit back and wait.
Just as Yingping was thinking about bad ideas, there was a burst of activity in front of him, and several young and beautiful girls walked past laughing and playing, attracting the attention of many young men.
These girls walked into the jewelry shop with a smile. The shop was not big and even a little shabby. What was sold inside was also some pendant gadgets. Boys and girls always like to buy some small jewelry to give to their sweethearts, which can be regarded as a sign of love and a gift. agreement. Therefore, although this shop is not as luxurious as the jewelry stores in the city, there is still an endless stream of customers.
Compared with those expensive accessories, the products here are naturally inferior, but fortunately there are many samples here, so you can stop and choose.
"Where do these girls... come from? Why haven't I seen them before?"
Looking at the fat and thin beautiful woman, the people next to her could not help but feel excited.
"I heard that a group of dancing girls came from the state of Wu on the flower boat by the Wei River. Their figures are all enchanting and gentle as water. They don't look like women from the Tang Dynasty. I guess they are them." A person with a head next to him said The man with the crown said.
The person who asked the question before looked at the group of women from a distance, feeling even more itchy in his heart, and said, "Whose flower boat is it? How about tonight..."
Seeing the lustful look on his companion's face, the man with the crown shook his head and said, "You think I don't want to? But I'm a poor man who sells his art but not his body. Even if you go there, you'll just watch from the audience." Share!"
As soon as he heard the three words "Qing Guo Ren", the man immediately changed his look of great regret.
Yingping also noticed this group of girls on the side, dancers from Wu Guolai? The soil and water support the people, and he has long heard that the women in the Jiangnan water town are really gentle, soft, beautiful and lovely. After all, Yingping is a young man with full functions. He is also curious when facing such a group of girls.
So, Yingping turned to Ye Changshan and Yiyi and said, "Let's go! Take a look."
…
Although the trinkets in the shop are not expensive, they look quite exquisite, especially the ones with strange styles that are rare. No wonder these girls carefully select them. They can’t put it down. Those are from Jiangnan. The same is true for the women. They compared and asked each other, hoping to choose the jewelry that suits them.
Zhidang was no exception. She selected carefully, hanging these accessories in her hair or on her wrist from time to time, and then called her companions for reference.
This girl named Zhitang was a native of Wu. She grew up by the Qinhuai River. At a young age, she was sold by her family to a brothel by the Qinhuai River to be trained as a dancer. Although she grew up in this land of fireworks, she has always been unwilling to sink into this world of wealth and indulgence. The madam in the building tried to persuade her and used some methods, but she struggled to resist. This time she left her hometown in Jiangnan because she offended a local gentleman. She kept doing it and she had already offended them all anyway. It was better to escape further, so she escaped from the building overnight and hid on a boat to prepare. Ships traveling north to make a living.
The ship was only that big, and Zhi Tang was not a killer or spy who was good at hiding. Within three days, she was discovered by the people on the ship. After being discovered, Zhi Tang was not timid. When she found out that there was a group of dancing girls on the boat who were going to the Tang Dynasty, she volunteered to join the team. Zhi Tang has a graceful and graceful figure and a soft and charming appearance. In addition, she has been trained as a dancer since she was a child, so she is somewhat famous on the banks of the Qinhuai River. Originally, these girls on the boat had not been successful in the fiercely competitive Qinhuai River and wanted to go north to Xintang to make a living. However, Zhidang's arrival greatly improved the level of viewing of their dance performances. It did not take long for Zhidang to become a faintly The oiran on this ship.
Zhi Tang is a few years older than these girls and is the pillar of the ship. These little sisters also regard her as a big sister. The past few days have been quite hard, but today she took these sisters out to play and relax.
In the shop, a younger girl happily ran up to Zhitang with a head full of pendants. She shook her cute head and looked extremely proud. Zhidang smiled and nodded. Seeing her sister's approval, the little girl jumped up and continued to choose.
At this moment, a hairpin suddenly caught Zhitang's attention. The hairpin was lying quietly under other accessories, and was not discovered by others because it was suppressed.
Zhitang reached out and took away the items above, and an exquisite hairpin appeared in front of her eyes. This hairpin is somewhat unique, and looks a bit out of place compared to the other accessories next to it, especially the two small flowers hanging at the end. Although I don’t know what material it is made of, the workmanship is extremely fine. It doesn’t seem to be from the Central Plains, but rather like something from the Central Plains. Commodities from the Western Regions. This hairpin would probably fetch a good price even if I took it to a jeweler, but somehow it ended up here.
Just when Zhi Tang was about to insert the hairpin into her bun, suddenly a black shadow waved in front of her eyes, and then she felt a slip in her palm. When she reacted, she found that the hairpin in her hand was gone. Zhitang looked up and saw a little girl who looked young and dressed as a maid snatched the hairpin from her hand and said arrogantly: "My lady likes this hairpin, you can choose another one. "
This little girl is young but has a bad temper, and her attitude is extremely arrogant. She seems to be a maid from a wealthy family. Otherwise, how could she be so unreasonable?
Zhitang frowned, and then looked behind the maid. At this time, she was surprised to find a beautiful woman standing there. It seemed that she was the 'Miss' in the maid's mouth.
Is there such a beautiful woman in the world?
Looking at this woman's face, Zhi Tang was a little surprised. She had always been confident about her appearance. She had seen many beautiful women in the land of fireworks, but this was the first time she had seen such a beautiful woman. So much so that when facing this man, he actually felt vaguely ashamed of himself. This woman's posture was very arrogant, as if if it weren't for this hairpin, she would never commit herself to such a mixed place.
After a brief period of confusion, Zhitang quickly regained consciousness. She controlled her emotions and said, "This girl is so unreasonable. I obviously got this hairpin first, why was it snatched away by you for no reason?"
Zhi Tang's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, but it was extremely pleasant. She knew that she had no support after leaving her hometown, and she seemed to be facing a wealthy local family, so naturally she did not dare to speak too harshly.
"My young lady will definitely get whatever she likes - get out of the way!"
