Xinshun 1730

Chapter 125 Red Armed Arms
Ten days passed in a blink of an eye. In June, the lotus flowers were singing and the cicadas were dry, and there was less wind and sand from the west. It was a good day to go out and play.

There is still more than a month before the Shangshe Autumn Examination. The Dashun Army conquered the capital on July 23 of the lunar calendar. It was the team of the Boyer Army Wude Palace reorganized by Li Guo who took the lead in going to the city. on this day.

Early in the morning, Liu Yu took a few servants and a hot air balloon for fun to the vicinity of Tsinghua Garden in the northwest of the city.

This is the garden built by Li Wei, Wuqing Hou, a foreign relative of the former dynasty. It is not the Tsinghua Garden of the later generations, but a little west of the Peking University of the later generations.

Liu Yu and Tian Ping made an appointment to meet here, there are other courtyards of Duke Qi's mansion nearby, and there are many other courtyards nearby, it is indeed a good place to enjoy the scenery.It's a pity that there are no high places to climb nearby, Wang'er Mountain and Xiangshan Mountain are a bit far away, and the nearby gardens cannot be seen.

Tsinghua Garden, known as the first garden in the former dynasty, is now deserted.

During the reign of Chongzhen, in order to ask Xungui for money, Huai Zong took Li Guorui, Marquis of Wuqing, under the knife.As a result, Li Guorui gave up his life and did not give up his money. After he died of illness, Xungui's relatives spread rumors everywhere that Chongzhen's actions must be harmful to his descendants, and his son really died within a few days.

This Tsinghua Garden is also affected by strange power and chaos. After the new dynasty, no one cares about it.

The capital is short of water, and Liu Yu's ancestors had contact with the rest of Daxi, and they were absolutely correct in standing in line when Li Guo and Li Laiheng came to the throne. This was able to grant the old house of Xu Yunzhen's family in the previous dynasty, and a huge garden in the capital.

The rest of the ministers did not have such a good place as Jishuitan. After winning the world, they all learned to "arty and elegant landscape", occupying a circle around the Kunming Lake in later generations and the Wengshan Pond at this time.

Except for the unlucky Tsinghua Garden, no one cares about it, only saying that it can be suppressed by leaving it to the Tian family, and the other places are now the other courtyards of the royal relatives or nobles, and the lotus pond is full of blood and sweat.

Liu Yu came early, so he walked around Peking University and Tsinghua University a few times, thinking that he had to make an appointment to go in and go around, but now I am running around on a horse and no one cares.

After a few rounds of hard running, I finally got over the addiction, and saw two carriages approaching from a distance.

Tian Ping would never ride a horse unless there were very special circumstances, and it was normal to come by car, but it was a bit strange that there was a car behind him.

He galloped to the side of Tian Ping and looked back at the carriage behind him, only to see that the curtain on the small window of the carriage was lifted from the inside by a hand. Although he couldn't see clearly because of the light, he could vaguely see a pair of eyes staring at him.

In the carriage, Tian Zhenyi lightly opened the curtain, looked at Liu Yu's suspicious eyes, and casually touched each other, but she didn't look away.

It can be vaguely seen that they still look like they played together when they were children, but they are much taller than before.

Riding on a majestic white horse, he was wearing a light blue fine silk shirt, a forehead was tied between his forehead, and his hair was only wrapped in a green scarf.It's not red lips and white teeth, on the contrary, his face is slightly dark because of last year's battle.With broad shoulders and a pair of black yucca-embellished boots on his feet, he gently pulled the rein in his hand, and quickly looked away.

Putting down the curtain, Tian Zhenyi thought to herself: "The third brother of the Liu family is darker than before. It's no wonder that it would be weird if it wasn't dark in the wind, snow and dust."

Liu Yu didn't see clearly who was inside, so he controlled the horse and walked around to Tian Ping, deliberately frightened Tian Ping with the horse's hoof, then jumped off, and patted the saddle casually.

"Brother Tian, ​​who is in the car behind here? Could it be a lady from some family, who is reluctant to spend a thousand taels of silver, so she used this to make the beauties laugh? She is really willing to spend money."

These words were not loud, but Tian Zhenyi still heard them in the car.With a spat, Xindao is also a teaser, what did he say.

Then I thought again, if someone really made such a strange thing just to make people laugh, then the woman who laughed will definitely remember it for a lifetime, and it will be worthy of a lifelong confidant.

Outside the car, Tian Ping saw that there were some servants following Liu Yu and a strong man who was going to inflate the bellows, so he whispered: "Don't talk nonsense, it's my sister. Didn't I tell you when I was drinking? You have to make a noise to see it. My father is also a spoiled girl, and before going to Rakshasa, he also said to follow her temperament."

Hearing that it was Tian Ping's younger sister, a vague figure could not help appearing in Liu Yu's mind. It had been more than ten years since she had been playing with each other, and she had rarely interacted with her in these years, so she had long forgotten what she looked like.

But he vaguely remembered the name, knowing that the girl's name was not easy for outsiders to hear, so he hurriedly apologized for what he said just now.

"I'm talking nonsense, I'm sorry."

The voice of the apology was loud, and Liu Yu was also very curious, thinking that Tian Ping, the younger sister, is interesting and courageous. It is a bit interesting for this girl to come out to see the hot air balloons in this era.

He hurriedly asked someone to inflate the hot air balloon, lit the fire, and coiled the rope around a big tree nearby.

Tian Ping asked the boy to take out some wine and cold meat from the car, and said: "This is none of your business, let's go to a distant place to drink."

Everyone was also used to winking, how could they not understand, after thanking each of them, they carried their wine and meat to the distance.

After everyone had left, a girl got out of the carriage behind, and she wasn't that weak and weak, so she didn't need a servant to help her out of the carriage.

After getting out of the car, Liu Yu was stunned.

At the age of seventeen or eighteen, if you talk about the appearance of his face, Liu Yu grows up in the palace, so he is really qualified to pretend to be "blind in face, not aware of beauty and ugliness".

After all, it was born by Qi Guogong's concubine, and Qi Guogong is an old critic. In order to take concubines and prevent Catholicism from invading the backyard, Catholicism actually stood up early when they attacked. They were also hungry in Mongolia, but the ones who really married into the family are naturally not bad. Where can the daughter born be so bad?

It's just that this attire really surprised Liu Yu.

The swan-like neck is adorned with an obvious baroque style lav collar, which is commonly known as the head on a plate.It's just been improved, not so exaggerated, with white lace lace wrapped around the neck, and only a bow tied under the chin.

On his head was a splendid sun-hat, and a white velvet scarf hung a little, with a large ornamental feather stuck in it.

The upper body is a Western-style military uniform robe, with a decorative blue ribbon hanging from the shoulders to the waist, and a gorgeous short sword is attached to the waist, but it is obviously for decoration rather than for war.

The lower body is pants, not skirts.

After being slightly surprised, Liu Yu also understood.

Now that I am going to fly to the sky to play, if I wear a skirt, even though I know that the hanging basket can block my view, I will always feel embarrassed, so I deliberately wear such a set of clothes passed down by Western missionaries.

Even if no one is watching, it is really not easy to wear a skirt when flying to a high place.

Liu Yu also saw this kind of clothes a lot, and his mother also had a "cosplay" oil painting, wearing a Milanese plate armor, and the collar on the neck was more exaggerated than the one in front of her, an oil painting painted by a Western painter in the court.

The best oil painter in Chaozhong is a Milanese man named Lang Shining in Chinese.It's just that this Western painting was looked down upon by literati, who only said that "Westerners are good at Pythagoras, so their paintings are close to yin and yang, and they are not bad. But there is no brushwork, and even though they are craftsmen, they are not included in paintings."

According to Liu Yu's understanding, the general meaning of this sentence is: Are photos art?Painting oil paintings in the direction of photos with light and shadow can only be regarded as a craftsman, but without brushwork and artistic atmosphere.

On the contrary, it is the honorable families like Liu Yu, because the Dashun royal family deliberately instigated a gap between them and the civil servants, the level of art appreciation can only be regarded as arty, far from that high, and these oil paintings that can draw the distance between yin and yang are still okay. accepted.

His family also has several sets of Western military uniforms. His mother has a plate armor bust, and his sister also has several sets of whalebone skirts with a diameter of three to four meters in the early Rococo style.

Sometimes when the sisters gather in the backyard to drink wine, they will also taste foreign wine. They wear Western women's clothes, which means "you must drink wine with a moonlight cup".

This outfit did not surprise him, but it was a bit of courage to dare to wear this outfit from the cosplay in the backyard to the outside.

Thinking about it again, it seemed more reasonable for Tian Ping to let those people leave, as outsiders might chew their tongues.

After getting out of the car, Liu Yu was older. Tian Zhenyi walked up to Liu Yu gracefully, clasped his fists with both hands, placed them in the middle of his chest and abdomen, with his right hand on top and left hand on the bottom, his legs slightly bent, his head slightly lowered, and said a standard Han Chinese Wanfuli.

Liu Yu also hastily returned the salute, the two were of the same generation, their heads should be as high as their buttocks.Xunzi said, balance means worship.Note that the head and waist are as balanced as the balance.

"It's really troublesome for the third brother."

"Oh... no trouble, no trouble. Since this thing is made, it is meant to be used by people. If it is put in the warehouse, it will be the same as nothing. It is said that the wish of flying to the sky, I hope that everyone will look forward to this thing in the future Those who try it can be regarded as attracting people to learn. Learning is boring, and few are eager to learn. For example, when feeding medicine, you always have to mix some honey."

He didn't say anything false, he said whatever he thought.When I made this thing in the first place, I had this purpose. The knowledge is really boring, and the way can be fascinating.

A very sincere sentence, but it made Tian Zhenyi think a lot in her heart, what the third brother Xindao said was really reasonable, but it seemed that there was something in the words.Feeding medicine, feeding medicine, could it be possible that the third brother also felt that the world was sick?
Seeing that Liu Yu didn't frown in surprise at her weird attire, she was quite comforted in her heart, only saying that the him he imagined in her usual guesses was really right, as expected, he would not be surprised by such things people.

Like a bird in a cage, it always fantasizes about the outside world and imposes too much beauty. It seems that there is only warm sun, spring breeze and blue sky, but no cold, ice, wind, snow and thousands of miles of frost.

On weekdays, I heard Tian Ping tell many stories about Liu Yu, but today I deliberately wore such a suit, but I wanted to try him out.Now it is exactly as she thought, and she feels satisfied in her heart.

After seeing Li, Tian Zhenyi giggled and said: "If others see my outfit, they will probably say that it hurts the customs. Usually I heard the second brother say that the third brother is different, but seeing me today, it is indeed so."

As soon as the words fell, Liu Yu almost didn't even turn his head, and said, "Huaxia's sons and daughters are so ambitious, they don't like red clothes, but they like armed forces."

"Sister Zhenyi's dress is so handsome and heroic. Since I'm here to play with this flying thing today, this outfit is just right. It's like writing calligraphy and painting. Different characters have different pens. If you are writing in small regular script, you don't use Lang Beihao, on the contrary. It’s a ruler-long bucket brush, so that’s not right.”
