When he returned to the mansion, he only saw Butler Zhang making festive arrangements everywhere, and a dozen servants were busy putting up lanterns and colorful decorations. It was very lively, but Ye Sanlang hadn't recovered from Li Linfu's words. He also carried the hundred guan that Li Linfu had given him a moment ago. Although it didn't look like much, it was an amount that ordinary people couldn't save for many years.
"Young Master Jiushi, as long as the Jiangnan matter is handled properly this time, I will let you choose." Li Linfu's words still echoed in his ears.
That is the young minister of Jiu Temple. He is of the fifth rank. He is not yet twenty years old. Is he about to join the ranks of high officials in the court? The unhappiness in his heart a moment ago has now disappeared. Just now, Li Linfu felt that something was wrong, so he asked his servants to serve another table of food and wine, and had a few drinks with him. When he heard that all the high officials in the court had arrived, he asked He took his leave. And he wisely bypassed the lobby and did not bump into those high-ranking officials.
Power, how much he longed for power at that moment. If he had the power, how could he suffer such humiliation?
While he was thinking, a white figure not far away caught his eye.
The figure in white clothes was squatting by the small pool at the moment, holding a few butterflies in his hands, smiling brightly, and the smile spread like a fairy who could not eat the fireworks of the world. He was actually crazy.
Before going out today, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he told his family about his engagement to Li Sihan, but he hid her identity. This undoubtedly dropped a bombshell in Ye Mansion. Young Master Ye, who had always been serious about his words, actually brought back a charming wife. This surprised the whole family, especially when they heard that Li Sihan had been in Ye Mansion for a long time. After staying in the room next to Sanlang, Ye Tianzheng suddenly showed a smile on his face, which made Li Sihan feel shy.
However, just like this, Li Sihan was able to move around freely in Ye Mansion, especially after hearing that this marriage was authorized by the emperor, and everyone in the mansion was very respectful to the future wife.
At this moment, Li Sihan turned around and noticed Ye Sanlang who was looking at her crazily, and said with a smile: "Are the clothes Shi Niang just put on me beautiful?"
"Beautiful, just like...just like a fairy in the sky." After a pause, he added: "Miss Li, I am blessed to be able to marry you."
Li Sihan glared at him and said angrily: "I haven't agreed yet. Let's wait until this trip to Jiangnan is over. Ah, and also, since we are nominally engaged now, then you still call me Li Isn’t the girl not very decent?”
"Then... Sihan?"
"Um."
Suddenly, there was a crackling sound of firecrackers from the other side of the door, which reminded him of something.
"Sihan, today happens to be the Lantern Festival. Do you want to go out for a walk with me tonight?"
"Huh? I haven't noticed yet. It turns out that today is the Lantern Festival. No wonder it's so lively." She lowered her head and said slowly: "When I was in Laoshan, I never celebrated any festivals. … During the Lantern Festival last year, I was still wandering in the mountains and rivers. I saw that every house was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and I didn’t know what was going on?” After saying that, she smiled again.
But Ye Sanlang knew that her smile was full of bitterness, and he suddenly swore in his heart that he would definitely let her have an unforgettable Lantern Festival in her life.
However, before that, there is still something to be done.
"Xiao Liu!" he shouted.
Not long after, I saw a thin figure running over.
"Third Young Master, ah, and Madam, what can I do?"
He took out some of the rates Li Linfu had given him a moment ago from his sleeve and handed them to Xiao Liu.
"Master, what is this?"
"This is the Forty-one Guan. You can go to Cui Er and Uncle Jiu's house for me. I will give ten Guan to each of them. You can keep the rest for yourself."
"Third Young Master?! This, this is forty strings! You just gave it away so casually?"
"I always feel uneasy if I don't compensate their family. They have passed away long ago, but I am standing here enjoying the blessings. I, I feel uneasy!"
"I understand, Third Young Master, I'll go, just wait for my news." After saying that, he turned and left.
Seeing Ye Sanlang's painful expression, Li Sihan took a few steps forward and held his hand: "They have passed away long ago. No matter how much you think about them, they will never come back. Why not forget all this?" , or face it bravely. In the future, the people you care about will always pass away. Do you have to be devastated by every one of them? The death of your friends has something to do with me. If you can make It makes you feel better...why don't you hit me."
Ye Sanlang glanced at her a few times, as if he didn't recognize her. The rumored Tianyin Fairy Li Sihan was famous for her coldness. When would she show such a side to others?
"Sihan, I appreciate your kindness. I will forget about it gradually, so you don't have to worry." He looked at the sky, which had begun to darken. "Let's go eat first and then go to the street."
At night, the whole city of Chang'an seemed to be alive. Zhuque Street was packed with people, lanterns and stalls everywhere. On this Lantern Festival night in the twenty-eighth year of Kaiyuan, no matter whether it was the prince or the prince, Generals, ministers, and commoners all forgot their identities and joined in the joy of the festival.
The main road leading from Zhuque Street to the East Market is also crowded with people. From time to time, there are a few rich young men or relatives of the emperor flashing among the crowd, and there are even rich women who are fashionably dressed and reveal a trace of pink breasts, attracting many people. eyeball.
"Hey, hey, hey, where are you looking? Where are you looking?" A well-dressed ordinary woman complained to the man beside her. She was Li Sihan in disguise. With her appearance, something could easily happen. Unpleasant things, when she walked around the world before, she never showed her true face easily. Seeing Ye Sanlang's eyes darting around now, I felt a little jealous. A moment ago, I watched the lanterns with him and the excitement of guessing lantern riddles was almost half gone.
"What? Are you jealous? A gentleman is a man, let's see what happens next?"
"You!" Li Sihan was furious, jumped up and grabbed his ears fiercely.
"Ouch... it hurts... be gentle, I just won't look around!" Ye Sanlang was in pain and had to compromise.
"really?"
"Seriously, if there is even half a lie, there will be thunder and lightning." After saying that, he subconsciously looked at the sky. Fortunately, there was no rain tonight and the weather was acceptable.
Hearing this, Li Sihan just released her grip on his ears.
At this time, her eyes were suddenly attracted by a roadside stall. She took a few steps forward and stared closely at a silver hairpin, her eyes shining. She stretched out her hand to pick up the hairpin and looked for it. Sure enough, she saw a few words smaller than ants in one place: Made by Jiang Yiyan. Jiang Yiyan was a famous craftsman from the previous dynasty. He created many works in his life. He was also a disciple of Wanjinmen, a small sect of Zhengdao. It is said that the hairpins he made were very good for Taoists to absorb the vitality of the five elements. Auxiliary effects.
Ye Sanlang also walked up and saw her inserting the hairpin into his head and asked, "Does it look good?"
"It looks good. It really suits you." He turned around and asked the vendor, "How much does this hairpin cost?"
When the hawker saw someone coming to the door, he was naturally very enthusiastic: "Your Majesty, this girl has good eyesight. This hairpin is the most expensive treasure in the shop. Today is the Lantern Festival. I won't charge you too much, just ten." It’s done.”
"Shi Guan?!" Li Sihan was furious. "Even the hairpins from Yang Ji's jewelry store in Dongshi cannot be sold at such an expensive price. You, a stall owner on the street, dare to ask for exorbitant prices?"
"Girl, you can eat as much as you want, but don't talk nonsense. This hairpin is worth this price. When you sold it to me, the elder brother sold it to me for eight strings. I only charge you two strings more. Don't buy it. Pull down.”
"No, old version, just ten strings." Ye Sanlang nodded and took out the money.
"Sanlang, what are you..."
Ye Sanlang looked at her and smiled: "This is the hairpin you like. It's worth it no matter how much it costs. Besides, I like you very much."
Seeing that the money had been handed over to the vendor, Li Sihan could only give up, but something seemed to be slowly melting in her heart.
Not far away is the famous Chunxiang Tower in Chang'an. At this moment, the three floors inside and outside the building are crowded with people, many of whom are scholars who look elegant.
"What's that for?" Li Sihan asked curiously.
"I almost forgot that this happened!" Ye Sanlang patted his head.
"The famous Miss Fu from Chang'an will sing her most famous "Allure" for free tonight! Look at those scholars, most of them have been waiting here for a long time."
"Hmph, a bunch of gangsters showed up like this just to listen to a prostitute singing."
"No, you are wrong. This Miss Fu has always been an artist rather than a prostitute, and she never opens her mouth easily. This opportunity is really rare. Why don't we just listen to her for a while, and it's not too late to move on."
She was a little curious at first. As a woman, Li Sihan certainly wanted to know who was more beautiful between the famous Chang'an girl Fu and herself. Her voice was not that important. Therefore, she and Ye Sanlang also joined the team in front of Chunxiang Tower, waiting for something.
Not long after, several maids walked out of the small building upstairs, some holding guqins or pipas in their hands. The crowd of onlookers began to get excited because the real owner also walked out.
Although the woman's appearance was outstanding, she could not be called the beauty of the country. Although she was dressed gorgeously, she did not put any makeup on her face. This made Li Sihan very strange. There were many such women on the street, so why were everyone going crazy for her? ?
Miss Fu walked to the stage, nodded to the scholars downstairs, and said: "The time of the one-year appointment has arrived. Hongxue welcomes everyone to come here again. Next, please Let’s enjoy this song “Allure”.”
After saying that, the maid behind her began to play, and the crowd of onlookers was quiet and silent at the moment.
"There is a beautiful woman in the north, peerless and independent. She looks at the Qingren city and then the Qingren country. She would rather not know the Qingcheng and the Qingguo. It is hard to find a beautiful woman again..." A world-famous song slowly sang from her mouth , the voice is like the sound of nature, the state makes people crazy, it is hard to imagine that there can be such singing in the world.
Li Sihan was also obsessed with listening to it. She didn't expect that this song would make people intoxicated. Although her piano skills were at a certain level, in terms of piano skills, she was not even a piano master. One point. In all my life, I have never heard such a touching song.
"I would rather not know a beautiful city or a beautiful country, a beautiful woman is hard to come by..." Ye Sanlang was also fascinated by the words, and repeated the lyrics unconsciously.
Suddenly, his eyes quickly looked at a man watching, showing a shocked look.
I saw that the man was just like him, repeating the lyrics in his mouth, with a satisfied smile on his face, then turned around and left here.
He had read in the Secret Code of Seeking Dragons that the auras of people above the Immortal Realm were different from those of ordinary people. If he used the secret method of seeking Qi through his mind, he could quickly identify them. The auras of ordinary people and cultivators are colorless. Only those who are in the realm of immortals and above have their auras pushed upward by light gold.
And the man's aura just now turned out to be a dazzling golden color!
