The sun is already high in the sky, and the ancient city looks tall and majestic under the golden sunlight. The three-character ancient plaque "Pingyang City" hangs on the city tower, and there is an endless stream of pedestrians and traders coming in and out under the city gate, all kinds of people are busy with life. , a group of defenders were checking pedestrians' packages in front of the city gate for any prohibited items.
"parking!"
The armored soldiers guarding both sides of the city gate yelled at a carriage.
The driver was a middle-aged man with a short beard. When he was stopped by the drink, he was not afraid but impatient and said: "How brave! Do you know who is sitting in the car? How dare you stop my young master from driving?" !”
Seeing how arrogant the coachman was, the general guarding the gate couldn't help but become nervous. He changed his expression, bowed his hands, and asked with a smile: "Then I don't know which young master he is? Please give me your instructions!"
The coachman glanced coldly at the general, and just as he was about to open his mouth to show off his power, he saw a hand with a jade ring stretched out from the carriage to lift the curtain. A handsome man leaned out half of his body and said lightly: "Fu Uncle, don’t make any noise.”
The coachman chuckled and said, "Yes! Yes! Young Master is right."
The general on the side saw the young master's expression change instantly and said with an apologetic smile: "It turns out to be the Second Young Master Chen! I'm being rude to you, I hope you will show your respect."
The young man chuckled lightly and said, "It turns out that I went out for a low-key outing in the city without taking a special carriage or horse at home, which made Li Baihu laugh."
The general known as Li Baihu said hurriedly: "The lower official made a mistake and disturbed the young master's purity."
After that, he turned around, stretched out his hand and scolded the soldiers blocking the way, "Why don't you give way to Mr. Chen quickly?"
The soldiers hurriedly opened a road and blocked the people at the city gate on both sides, specially clearing a smooth path for this ordinary-looking carriage.
The people were all dissatisfied, but no one dared to speak out because there was a marquis named Chen in Pingyang City.
In the crowd, two monks, an old one and a young one, watched this scene silently. The old monk shook his head and sighed. The young monk didn't know why and asked: "Master, why are you sighing?"
The old monk whispered: "This Mr. Chen has a pale face, but his Yintang looks dark. I think he is in trouble for his beauty."
The carriage drove slowly and slowly out of the city, and the order at the city gate gradually returned to normal.
Li Baihu cursed at the two soldiers who were blocking the carriage: "What are you doing with your eyes? How dare the second son of Lord Chen's family stop him?"
The two soldiers who were scolded couldn't help but complained: "Sir, this carriage is just like an ordinary people's carriage. It has no sign of the Marquis' Mansion and no guards. It's really hard for us to tell the difference."
Li Baihu also knew this, so it was no wonder that he and the two of them were not to blame. He just snorted coldly and said, "Next time, keep your eyes open and don't disturb the elegant taste of the noble man again."
The two claimed so.
The confidant next to Li Baihu whispered: "Sir, will it be dangerous for the second son of the Marquis' family to go out of the city alone? I heard that there is not peace outside the city recently. How about we send someone to follow to protect the Marquis? My young master, maybe..."
"Dangerous?" Li Baihu sneered, "This second young master of the Hou Mansion, although he looks weak and overindulgent, is at least as strong as a second-rate master in martial arts. If there are thieves, they are the ones who are in danger. .”
…
In the carriage, Mr. Chen smiled and said to a woman in the carriage: "Cousin, I'm telling you a joke."
"It's okay." The woman said a little shyly: "It's just that we went out of the city privately to enjoy the maple forest. It was already noon, and we were afraid that it would be too late when we came back."
I saw this woman wearing a long hairpin, a long red shirt, a pair of willow-leaf eyebrows, a pair of phoenix-tailed eyes, coupled with a green and beautiful appearance, her words and deeds all have the unique charm of a girl.
Mr. Chen's eyes darkened and he said with a smile, "Don't worry, cousin. With my cousin here, I can protect you even if you come back late."
This woman's surname was Sun, and she was a distant relative three generations removed from the Hou family. She came to the Hou family more than half a month ago and was fascinated by her gentle, funny and handsome cousin.
The girl's cheeks were slightly red, and the look she was a little shy but showing her heartfelt affection for the man in front of her fell into Bai Jun's eyes, which only made him think that they were a couple of bitches who didn't know etiquette.
Bai Jun could only watch. He was neither a human nor a ghost at this moment. He was just a ruby bead, embedded in the ruby pendant around Mr. Chen's waist.
Bai Jun was a little autistic. Ever since he regained consciousness, he understood that he was barely resurrected from the dead.
His real name was Shangguan Ling, and he died in the year 2020 of the Earth's AD calendar at the age of twenty. I still remember that I died in a car accident. There is only one sister in the family, named Shangguan Yun. I have learned that my mother died young as early as I can remember. My father also died suddenly of illness two years ago. His father's name was Shangguan Lingyun.
After waking up, the word "Bai Jun" came into his mind, and he named it after his consciousness was a little scattered.
After several months of observation, Bai Jun discovered that he had been reborn in ancient times, but on a ruby bead. No matter how unwilling he was, confused or frightened, he could only accept it with peace of mind, because he only had consciousness left.
Bai Jun's consciousness has been attached to this red jade bead for several months, and he has also seen the "true face" of this so-called Mr. Chen!
On the surface, he is gentle and elegant, but secretly, he goes to the Red Mansion and Chu Pavilion every night, drinking wine and beautiful women, listening to music, and enjoying the smell of meat every night. Just by looking at his face, an expert in love could tell at a glance that this person was someone of the same kind.
Now, I have seduced the heart of my distant cousin. Maybe I am tired of tasting cooked meat, and it is good to eat fresh meat occasionally.
Bai Yan gathered his consciousness and didn't want to see these human desires anymore.
Since his rebirth, he has thought about being able to escape from this red jade bead, which was no bigger than a peanut, and even dreamed of becoming a monster.
However, countless thoughts are just thoughts. He is just a consciousness, a spectator, and has no ability to change.
Bai Jun felt that he had persisted for several months and his mental state was still normal. It was a miracle that he didn't go crazy.
He was thinking about his past life memories and how his sister faced his death, when a few hours later he suddenly felt something change in the outside world.
Bai Yan dispersed his consciousness and saw the scene beside him.
His ruby bead and pendant were thrown to the ground, and even Mr. Chen's clothes were scattered on the ground.
Bai Jun looked helplessly into the distance, only to see a tangled mess illuminated by the moonlight.
Bai Jun noticed that Mr. Chen's behavior was getting more and more abnormal. Under the clear sky and bright moonlight, the evening wind blew the maple trees, making the maple leaves even more red like blood.
Mr. Chen's coachman, Uncle Fu, parked the carriage in a hidden place not far from the maple forest. He sat in front of the carriage and looked at the fleshy color in the distance with a confused look on his face, resisting the middle-aged man's impulse.
PS: I believe everyone has learned or heard the poem "The so-called beauty is on the other side of the water". It comes from "Jian Jia" in the "Book of Songs", and there is a sentence in this poem, "Travel back and follow it, just like "Zhi" in the water. "Zhi", zhi, the third sound.
This is a new book, so please forgive me for any shortcomings. After all, this is my first time writing an original novel, which is a great challenge. Thank you for your support!
I also hope that adults who like this book can collect it!
By the way, I would like to humbly ask for votes!
