Xian Sun of the Ning Mansion of the Red Chamber

Chapter 312

At the end of the grand ceremony, the streets on both sides of the street from Chengtianmen to Zhengyangmen to Yongdingmen were already full of people, some were watching the excitement, and some came to see him off. Juggling and all kinds of tricks come out.

I don't know which high-flyer company hired out large and small opera troupes in Beijing. Along the side of the street, a stage was set up at intervals, and the sound of drums and drums filled the streets of the capital.

"Look, there are still people setting up a stage."

Several carriages moved forward slowly among the crowd. Baoyu and Xue Pan rode on horseback with a group of servants guarding them. Inside the carriage, the girls had already been attracted by the bustling scene in front of them. Looking out from the curtain, Xiang Yun, who loves to be lively, has the sharpest eyes. He pointed to the stage in the distance and said to everyone.

Xiang Yun tilted his head and listened for a while, then turned around and said, "This script should be "Mu Guiying Breaks Hongzhou."

"Just the tip of your ears." Baochai said with a smile, flicking Xiupa past Xiangyun.

Not far away, I saw another high platform on the side of the street. On it, actors and actresses dressed up in Zhengjing's big painted faces and python costumes, swayed and swayed, and paused.

"Yun girl, what kind of discount do you think this is?"

Xiang Yun took a closer look, and said in his mouth, "I've never heard of it, but it's just that he must be a generation of loyal ministers and good generals just by looking at the clothes."

Only then did Tanchun answer, "This chapter is "The Flying General of Hanguan", which tells the story of Li Guang, the general of the Han Dynasty."

At this time, the voices of Baoyu and Xue Pan talking with people came from outside.

"Brother Ziying, brother Ruolan, here."

In the crowd, Feng Ziying and Wei Ruolan heard the sound and drove their horses up to them.

"Baoyu, Wenqi, Brother Wei and I were talking, it's boring to see you two in such a grand occasion, but by chance, you're here." Feng Ziying's face was full of glory, and she described today's grand occasion for the two of them.

The two of them came earlier, walked around the entire Central Axis Street, and all the girls in the carriage listened quietly.

"All along the street, there are all stage sets, and all the theaters are ordered to make fun of."

"Do you know who is so caring and would like to meet you?" Baoyu asked.

"There are more than one family. It is said that the stage was set up by the big businessmen in the capital, hoping for auspiciousness and celebration. Although we are ordinary people, we are also honored."

Speaking, Feng Ziying pointed to a table not far in front, and said: "The one in front is Yunji's table, and it ordered a discount of "Ding Beijiang". Further on, there are "Golden Beach" and "Li Ling Monument" and many more."

"By the way, I just saw that Brother Lian and Brother Rong went out of the city, and they said they wanted to build one, but it's a pity that there is no space in the city, so we can only find a place outside the city." Wei Ruolan Said.

Baoyu said, "Why didn't I hear him mention it? Since it's our own table, which discount has been fixed?"

"Second Brother Ying ordered the play himself, and he sang "Biography of Wu Mu" when he said yes."

After hearing this, Baoyu shook his head and said, "No, no, Yue Wu and Mu Zhong are loyal, but it's a bit tragic."

Xue Pan didn't like to read books. He only heard that Yue Fei's name of loyalty was sung in operas.

After hearing this, Baoyu just shook his head helplessly, and didn't get entangled in this matter any more.

Then he asked: "But what's a good place to go? It's lively here, but it's too noisy."

Feng Ziying said with a smile: "Today, there is no quiet place in this city."

"But there is a serious business, do you want to go?"

"Let's talk and listen."

I only heard Feng Ziying say: "The imperial court vowed to conquer the north, and the notices were posted all over the streets and alleys. Many of my young children are going north to join the army. I heard that even the children of the Royal Zong family are going to Shanxi to serve Suzhong. Your lord, we old friends, Han Qi, Chen Yejun, and Liu Xu, who was formerly serving in the imperial army, are going to the northern border. We have made an appointment outside the city to wait for the escorting army to go with us. Are you going or not?"

After Baoyu heard this, he became interested in his heart. He just thought that there were sisters in the mansion behind him, and he was not good at it.

"You two, wait for me for a moment."

Feng and Wei agreed, so Baoyu went to the carriage.

At this moment, everyone in the carriage was also listening to the conversation of several people outside the carriage. Through the gap in the curtain of the carriage, Daiyu saw the two people who were talking to Baoyu. It was the first time seeing him, and he turned around and smiled at Xiangyun and said, "Girl Yun, why don't you take a look at your future lover?"

Baochai didn't know the two of them, so she asked curiously, "Which one is it? Let me have a look too."

Daiyu pointed out, "That's the handsome boy."

On the contrary, Sanchun is no stranger to Feng and Wei's two sons, and had met several times when he was a child.

On the contrary, Xiangyun blushed and pulled Daiyu to fight in the car: "I'm no better than you. Every time I see you, it's brother Ying'ai, brother Ying'ai. It's a pity you want to see it now, people Not here either."

Among the sisters, everyone called Jia Ying "Second Brother Ying", but Daiyu always called "Second Brother Ying" every time they met. "Brother" will naturally be upgraded to "Brother Love" when she comes to her.

The sisters were used to fighting, but Daiyu was not annoyed, she just replied, "I obviously called my second elder brother, but I asked you to change the word."

"I can't say no to you." Whenever he and Daiyu quarreled and played, Xiangyun was always the first to lose, and this time was no exception.

After joking, Daiyu asked, "Have you ever met him? Have you spoken to him?"

Xiangyun said: "Of course I have seen it, the second sister and the third sister have also seen it."

"I mean after the two parties have settled down."

"I only met once and said a few words." Xiangyun replied.

Baochai also asked, "Do you like it?"

Yingchun also looked over.

Bao Dai greeted the children of the three of them who were expected to be married in the boudoir, and the topic they asked was of course more focused on this. Although the matter of Baochai had not been officially settled, it seemed that it was close to each other.

Only Yu Xichun was ignorant and Tanchun was curious.

Now Xiang Yunwen was distressed, tilted his head and thought for a long time before saying: "It's up to me if I like it or not, but I can feel that he is still good to me."

As soon as the three of them heard this, they knew that the girl had been moved, and they were afraid that it was more than that, so they asked again: "Have you exchanged the precious token?"

The so-called precious and private, but not so precious and private, the key is still the word "faith", in order to define the word "love".

Xiangyun hesitated to say anything, and after several times of entanglement by the crowd, he said: "I gave him my jade unicorn."

"What about him?"

"I sent a fan, a bracelet, and a few rare ancient books. I prefer that he give me more books."

"Okay, I said why I lost your jade unicorn. It turned out to be a gift, so why didn't you give it to me?"

Baoyu's voice came in, and then the curtain was lifted and Baoyu squeezed in.

Daiyu spat lightly: "What's the use of sending you off, someone will send you something else in the future, why did you come in?"

Baochai's cheeks were reddened and she lowered her head.

It's just that Baoyu heard this, but there was nothing wrong with it, and he said to himself: "I discussed with Feng Ziying, Wei Ruolan and the others to go outside the city, where Lian'er brother and Rong'er set up our own stage outside the city. , Second Brother Ying also ordered the show, so I have to go and watch it."

There was nothing wrong with everyone, and a group of people went out of the city.

On the other side, Jia Ying and Liu Yunlong drove horses side by side, planning to wait outside the city first. Jia Yu Village still had soldiers accompanying the army, and they had to pass through Zhengyangmen and Yongdingmen Streets according to the pre-arranged plan, and be sent off by the common people before they could formally wait. departure.

This delay probably required a lot of time, so he walked towards the city gate with Liu Yunlong first, while sending someone to inquire about the whereabouts of Yingchun and the others.

The people in central Beijing are completely crazy, the stage has been set up three miles away from Yongding Gate, at the foot of the city gate, a group of "Five Tombs" dandies gathered in twos and threes, surrounded by them in the center, are equally young It's just that these people are all dressed in military uniforms, and behind them are leading horses and BMWs, which are difficult even in the frontier army. The saddles are also extremely exaggerated with various accessories.

What's more exaggerated, some of them had tail wings plucked from unknown birds as feathers on their iron helmets. They were so coquettish that those who didn't know thought they were some generals.

Not far from the crowd, there is a stage set up in a hurry. Although it looks a little rushed, its style is not much worse than that in the city. For this reason, Lian Er spent a lot of money in it. This stage is still from the beginning. It's a good one to come over, but luckily the money doesn't belong to him, otherwise the second master Lian's financial difficulties would make him die of love.

He and Sister Feng separated, but he didn't give him any money.

Jia Rong was talking to Chen Yejun and Liu Xu's family friends who were close to each other.

At this time, a young man in a reddish-brown armor with a red cloak behind his shoulders led his horse and walked towards Lian Er in the crowd.

"Yo, Lian Er, you used to be the most picky when visiting flower houses, but now you are willing to spend money to build a stage."

Second Master Lian looked back and saw that the speaker was Yang Zhen who had just been to Jia's gate a few days ago.

"Why, you have given up on Huahua World to join the army because of Qiye, why don't you allow me to set up a stage?"

They are all dudes in the capital and have their own set of rules. Yang Zhen calls him Lian Er directly, so he doesn't have to stick to the etiquette of the aristocratic family.

"Lian Er, I warn you, don't call me Lai Qi." Yang Ting said viciously as if his tail had been stepped on.

"My name is Lai Qiye." Lian Er didn't care about the other party's warning.

Yang Zhen stared angrily for a while, rolled his eyes, and the anger on his face disappeared, and said, "Forget it, I won't bother with you. I'm leaving this trip, and I don't know when I'll be back."

"You ran out to join the army, does your father know?"

Yang Zhen is a member of the royal family, and his father is also the prince of the dynasty. Naturally, he can't leave Beijing if he wants to. Thinking about it with his toes, he knows that he ran out privately.

"When he finds out, I have already arrived at Yanmen Pass. He is a county king, and he dares to rob people from my third brother."

Lian Er couldn't help feeling amused when he heard this, and at the same time admired Yang You a little. All these dandies in Beijing were not convinced in front of him, and most of them were beaten so hard that they didn't dare to go out.

Especially those guys from the royal family, Yang You's words are probably more effective than their father's words.

Yang Ting looked at Jia Rong on the other side, then turned around and asked, "Why are you two alone?"

Lian Er frowned and said, "Could it be that you still want to see our second child?"

Yang Zhen curled his lips and said: "Don't scare me with him, he is the third brother's friend, I am convinced, since when did you start holding grudges like this, didn't you just accidentally offend your sister?" , I have apologized and apologized, how is she?"

Lian Er heard the words, his face was full of vigilance, and he was about to speak, but he heard Jia Rong shouting from a distance: "Second Uncle Bao, come here."

Lian Er looked up, but Baoyu and his party had arrived.

Yang Zhen on the side also looked back, but what he noticed was that the carriage behind Baoyu was obviously bringing the female relatives.

Baoyu and his party first talked with Chen Yejun and others, then came to Jia Lian's side and said, "Second brother Lian, if I hadn't heard Feng Ziying and others mention it, I didn't know that our family also set up a stage."

Jia Lian looked at Baoyu and asked, "Didn't you mean to take the second sister and them to your second brother Ying and say goodbye to brother Liu? Why did you take people out of the city?"

Baoyu couldn't say that he came here because he was playful, but said vaguely: "It's the same as waiting outside the city. It's cleaner. I've sent someone to inform them."

"Which team did you invite? I heard they said it was Wu Mu Chuan, which is too unlucky. How about changing to "Mulan Congjun"? Of course, the female general of the Yang family is the most suitable, but unfortunately I saw it on the way out of the city. It's already ordered."

After Jia Lian heard this, she shook her head helplessly, and said, "This excerpt was ordered by your second brother Ying, so there's no way you can change it at will."

Yang Zhen looked at Baoyu, then looked at Lian Er and asked, "Is this the one who holds the jade in your house?"

Yang Ting also found it novel. Others ordered dramas for auspicious occasions, but this one is full of women, so why not order Mulan to join the army?It's better to sing "The Palace of Eternal Life" in "Romance of the West Chamber".

Jia Lian introduced them to them immediately, and then said to Baoyu, "You can take your sisters to see a lively scene in the city. What's so good outside the city?"

Most of the people living outside the city gate are some people who have lost their land. The simple wooden sheds they built are naturally not as lively as the city. Usually, no woman from your family would set foot in such a place.

Baoyu didn't know how to answer, but he heard Yang Zhen who was on the side suddenly ask: "Is the three thousand pieces of gold from your mansion also in the car?"

Baoyu replied, "You mean the third sister, of course she is there."

"Second Uncle Lian and Second Uncle Ying are here." At this moment, Jia Rong ran over and said.

As soon as the words fell, Jia Ying and Liu Yunlong, who were still wearing visors, drove their horses to the front together. Jia Ying looked at the carriage and asked Baoyu, "Why are you outside the city?"

Baoyu's head was getting big at this time, Jia Lian had just asked, and another one came here. Of course, Jia Ying didn't say anything more. , is the matter settled?"

Jia Lian pointed to the theater stage on one side. At this time, a large number of people had gathered nearby, and the sound of babbling and babbling opera voices could already be heard on the stage.

"That's fine, I'll take Brother Liu to tell Second Sister first."

Liu Yunlong has been back to Beijing for two days, but he has not met Yingchun yet. After all, he is no better than Jia Ying. It is convenient to see him whenever he wants to stay in the mansion. Besides, Lin Ruhai is the uncle of the Jia family and has no children. On the wedding day, how could Jia Ying and Daiyu meet each other casually like this.

It's just that there are too many people here, so it's inconvenient. Now Jia Ying and the two guarded the carriage and traveled a longer distance until they stopped at a place where there were few people.

Among the crowd who were preparing to travel far away to join the army, someone looked at Jia Ying who was going away and said, "Look at that guy with the mask, he is even more in the limelight than us, not to mention, it really looks like that. "

After Yang listened, he laughed and scolded from afar: "Blind your dog eyes, that's Jia Ying, Bo Jingning of the current dynasty, who passed the imperial examination and was awarded a title in martial arts. You dare to speak out."

"Who dares to scold the old man. Oops, Seventh Brother, I'm blind."

Yang Zhen didn't pay much attention to it, but looked in the direction of Jia Ying's departure.

There is no one worthy of fame, he used to always think that Jia Ying is just a lucky one who has been favored by God, everyone is the younger generation, so how strong can he be.

It's just that when Jia Ying galloped forward, Yang Zhen felt an indescribable oppression from the crowd. Under the cold visor, it seemed that there was a beast that was about to devour people.

"This is the one who is really used to seeing battle formations." Suppressing the fluctuations in his mood, Yang Zhen thought to himself.

After apologizing to Jia Lian, he rode his horse and followed.

On the outskirts of the city, in a deserted place, Jia Ying leaned against the carriage and sat on the shaft, telling the general situation of today's grand ceremony with the people in the carriage, giving Liu Yunlong and Yingchun some time to be alone.The birth of emotions between people lies in communication and getting along with each other. It's just that in the era when the restraint of ethics and ethics has reached its peak, it is a bit difficult to do this.He can only use excuses to create one or two opportunities for the two of them, and to gain a better understanding of each other. If he finds that it is not suitable, it may be too late to regret it.

"Brother Ying, this is not a battlefield. What are you doing wearing a visor? It's scary." Xiang Yun looked at Jia Ying and said.

Daiyu Tanchun and the others also looked over, and they were also surprised that they were not going to fight, so why did they even wear visors.

"It's not only scary, but also awkward, like talking to an iron lump, and I won't pick it off." Daiyu also echoed.

The question is can this be picked?
What others think, Jia Ying may be able to laugh it off and don't care much, but they are the most familiar and close ones around them. If they are taken off, the fame of the whole life will be ruined. Be a brother in front of you.More importantly, if Daiyu asked, how should he answer.

At this moment, Jia Ying appeared calm on the outside, but panicked inside.

When he was in a dilemma, he heard the sound of horseshoes approaching. Jia Ying jumped out of the carriage and looked at the people passing by.

"What are you doing here?" Jia Ying silently closed the car curtain. Although she didn't like to see Yang Zhen, she had to say that his appearance at this time was a relief for herself.

Yang Zhen glanced at the carriage first, and then said the reason he had already thought up: "I intend to go to Shanxi and join my third brother's tent. I will gallop across the border with fierce horses, kill barbarians, beg for disobedience, and serve the court of our country." I know you are on good terms with the third brother, but if you have anything to say, I will take it with you."

Jia Ying chuckled lightly and said, "The battlefield is no joke, and Hu Lu is no match for those green-skinned scoundrels in Beijing. You have to think it over before making a decision. Don't serve your country and cause trouble for your third brother." .”

Yang Ting straightened his chest, and said loudly: "'Yu Wei is the descendant of the Han family in the world, there are no males!' This is what you said, and now I am a great leader, and it is a great honor for me to go north to join the army. As a descendant of the Yang family How can you be willing to be the queen of others, even inferior to those people in Guizhou, is that still a man?"

"Why don't you bring the Wu hook and charge Guanshan Fifty States?"

"If I die in battle, that's my fate too. It's better than a lifetime of ignorance. You and I are about the same age. If you can do it, my third brother can do it too. Why can't I? Don't underestimate people."

"Speak as you speak, what to do so loudly, and there is no one else here, I'm afraid I won't be able to hear you. I didn't underestimate you, I just gave you a kind reminder." Jia Ying said calmly, and at the same time his eyes were on He wandered between the carriage and Yang Ting for a while, guessing Yang Ting's intention in his heart.

"You don't need to bring the letter. I have my own means of communication with your third brother. Is there anything else? If it's okay, please."

Detective Yang looked anxious: "Don't."

"There is something else, there is something."

"Say something quickly, fart as soon as you have something to say." Jia Ying said impatiently.

Yang Zhen rubbed his hands, looked towards the carriageway: "Uh, I heard that the three thousand pieces of gold from your mansion are also in the carriage."

Tanchun heard the sound in the car and looked out through the gap in the window lattice.

"I came here specially to make amends."

Jia Ying asked: "Didn't you apologize last time? What happened to this?"

Yang Tan still had a smile on his face, like a spring breeze, but he scolded Jia Ying from beginning to end in his heart, was this guy specially sent by the heavens to make trouble for him? Don't you understand the truth?

"Uh, that's the case. Firstly, the last time I made an apology was more or less due to the order of the emperor, not necessarily out of my own conscience. After I went back and thought about it, I felt more and more that I was rude and offended the girl that day. It was really not a man's doing. The sense of shame is difficult to get rid of. Both, my father and brother have taught me that a man should be brave in his life, and he must dare to admit that he has done something wrong. It is a matter of a girl's reputation. It is rash to make amends, and it is reasonable to make amends. Then, when I came to the door that day, I never met the girl face to face, but I took the liberty to come here this time, I must ask the girl to accept a gift from me, otherwise I will feel at ease."

Jia Ying looked at Yang Zhen who was seriously admitting his mistake, and felt that this guy seemed to have other intentions.

I saw Yang Zhen took out a jade pendant from his bosom, and said: "This jade was given by the late emperor when I was born, and I have always worn it with me. Today, I will use it as a gift to make amends with the girl."

This time, Jia Ying did not speak, but quietly looked at the carriage.

Inside the car, Tanchun hadn't seen Jia Ying for a long time, and he knew that he had to make his own decision, so he said through the curtain, "The little prince is serious, it's the little girl who should apologize to the little prince, I was shocked that day. In a panic, I hurt the little prince's jade body, which is really offensive. Thanks to the little prince for being magnanimous, he didn't care about the little girl. Since you and I have cleared up the misunderstanding, there is no need to mention all the past. As for this jade pendant, the little girl is ashamed I can't accept it, and secondly, it was a gift from the late emperor, so don't be a fake person easily, please take it back, my little prince."

Hearing Tanchun's reply, Yang Zhen was overjoyed, but in the end he still couldn't see his face as he wished, and he couldn't help feeling a little regretful.

The last time he was stabbed by Tanchun and forced to make an apology by Yang Bi, Yang Zhen had a lot of resentment in his heart, but afterward he couldn't help recalling the scene of that day, and once again, the scene of the shocking glimpse appeared in Yang Zhen's mind. A beautiful scene, the more you think about it, the more you think about it, but you are more and more admirable for Tanchun's unruffled behavior and taking the opportunity to retaliate.

He was used to seeing the attitude of the youngest daughter, but the appearance of Tanchun gave him a different perspective. It turns out that there are such women in the world.

I don't know why, I always want to see the other party again because of the eccentricity in my heart, so this time I saw the opportunity, so I followed with a shy face.

As for what he said just now, it can't be said to be false, but he doesn't have any hatred in his heart, it's just that he thought of these words as an excuse when he was on the way here, otherwise he followed up rashly and wanted to see someone else's boudoir Girl, it is inevitable to be beaten up by Jia Ying again.

Although he resists beatings, he still needs face.

Seeing that what he wanted in his heart failed to come true, he looked at Jia Ying at the side. Although he was unwilling, Yang Zhen had no choice but to admit it and look for a better opportunity.

"Third Brother is familiar with Jia Ying, let's see if we can walk in his footsteps."

Here, Liu Yunlong and Yingchun also came back, Yingchun's eyes were slightly red, as if she had cried.

How many idiotic men complain about women, parting is the most melancholy.

After Yingchun got into the car, Jia Ying said to Liu Yunlong: "I'm afraid Yucun is going to leave Beijing, let's go too. I met him and worked together for a while. I should give him a gift. If it's too late, we won't be able to catch up."

　Going for the exam tomorrow, come back later for an update.
