Red plums reflect youth

Chapter 75

The nearest village to Kuanshan is Ruantang Village. In the village, there are several acres of square houses, several thatched huts, traffic on the rice paddies, and chickens and dogs.Village life is leisurely and simple.

A group of people went door to door to inquire about Qiao Sheng or the bandits, no matter whether they were shaggy-haired or white-haired and yellow-haired, they shook their heads and didn't know.After a few days, no results.

There is an ancient pine tree at the head of the village, with its strong and lingering branches, isolated in the setting sun, desolate and lonely.

The tired flying birds rest on the branches, stroke their feathers and bury their heads.

Liu Qiaoyang put his hand in his mouth and hissed lightly.The bird moved its head and flew towards Liu Qiaoyang.Liu Qiaoyang took off the note on the bird, and said to Ziqing:

"The young man in white went to Pingyang, but as soon as he arrived in Pingyang, the shadow guards lost him."

As he spoke, he stroked his chin with his fingers, and chuckled lightly: "I didn't follow until Pingyang... Before that, I must have leaked my whereabouts on purpose."

Ziqing heard this and said, "Since we have no clue here, why not go back to Pingyang and meet that young man in white, we should be able to get clues."

Liu Qiaoyang nodded in agreement, and then bid farewell to Xu Changming, who insisted on his own opinion, with Ziqing, and rushed to the capital overnight.

It's just... Liu Qiaoyang was puzzled, if he wanted to help, why didn't he point it out in person that night?

When the two returned to Pingyang, before entering the city gate, they heard passers-by talking about a strange event that caused a stir in the whole city.

"Have you heard that? Miss Yu from Qingcheng Pavilion actually danced yesterday!"

"That's not right! I heard it was at the eldest prince's birthday banquet!"

"The eldest prince really has face. Once the emperor wanted to see it but was rejected!"

"It's not that the eldest prince's face is big, I heard that he met a bosom friend!"

……

Both Liu Qiaoyang and Ziqing frowned, not knowing why.

It's so strange, since the two of them can remember, Miss Yu has never danced.There are only rumors in the market that the last "Phoenix Flying Nine Heavens" danced by Miss Yu made the whole city empty.Now, how can you dance anymore?

The two walked towards the city, and what they saw and heard along the way was all about Miss Yu dancing again.Unknowingly, I walked to the stone bridge in front of Furong Street.

Seeing a few passers-by talking about Miss Yu, they accidentally knocked a little girl wearing a jade hairpin to the ground.

Ziqing hurried forward to help her up: "You didn't fall, did you?"

The little girl stood up, patted the dust on the colorful embroidered lily skirt, opened her big watery eyes, and said crisply to Ziqing, "Thank you brother, I'm fine."

Ziqing looked at her, then suddenly smiled and said, "Your name is Wan'er, I've met you before. What are you doing on Furong Street alone? Where's your father?"

Wan'er opened her eyes even wider: "You are a fairy brother, you know my name!" Then she replied innocently: "Daddy took Wan'er out shopping, but when I was shopping here, I met a little girl Uncle Beard, Daddy said he has something to talk to Uncle Mustache, so let me go back first." Then, he patted his little head, "Ahhh" and said, "I have to leave quickly, in case Daddy finds me on the street Talking to strangers will punish Wan'er again."

Ziqing touched her little head, and said softly, "Well, go home quickly, don't worry your father."

Wan'er nodded and ran towards home. After running two steps, she suddenly turned her head and smiled innocently at Ziqing: "But brother, you are not a stranger, you are Wan'er's beautiful fairy brother! Hee hee !” Then he ran away bouncing.

Qiao Yang couldn't help but be embarrassed: "Brother Immortal~ Do you know this little girl?"

"Well, I met once on Lingfeng Mountain Road, and I heard her father call her Wan'er." Ziqing looked at the back of the little girl leaving, and said quietly: "At that time, I only thought she was like Qiao Sheng. Lively and cute, it's only when I fall in love..."

Qiao Yang felt sore when he heard the words, and said to Ziqing, "We will definitely get Qiao Sheng back! I'll go to the Nanxiang Hall to look for Red Wolf. He has the best news, and he will definitely know the origin and history of the young man in white." Whereabouts. Go back to Qingcheng Pavilion first, and ask Miss Yu what's going on there."

Ziqing glanced at the Nanxiang Pavilion deep in Furong Street, and nodded.

Qiao Yang turned around and walked towards the Nanxiang Hall. Just as he took a step, he suddenly hesitated, then turned around and took Ziqing's hand:

"How about I take you to see and see?"

Ziqing shook off Qiao Yang's hand, and said with a red face all over her face, "Who would want to go to that kind of place!"

Qiao Yang narrowed his eyes and smiled slightly, and lightly poked Ziqing's forehead with his finger: "Then don't be jealous! I'm going to the Nanxiang Pavilion this time just for business."

Ziqing glared at Qiao Yang with a blushing face, "Who is jealous!"

"Really?"

"I'm too lazy to talk to you, I'm going back to Qingcheng Pavilion."

……

When Ziqing returned to Qingcheng Pavilion, he found that there were several times more guests in the pavilion than usual, and Yu Xuefei couldn't see anyone behind closed doors, so she had to find Cui Ling to ask for clarification.

Cui Ling said crisply: "Yesterday, I accompanied the girl to the First Prince's banquet. Halfway through drinking, the First Prince suddenly asked the girl to dance, but the girl refused as usual. I don't know if the First Prince was drunk or something." , Tighten it tightly, and refuse to let go."

"You don't know how dangerous it was at that time. The eldest prince asked the guards to come in and arrest the girl. He said that if she didn't jump, she would be dragged down and killed. The girl would rather die than follow. I was so anxious that I burst into tears. Some dignitaries stood up to persuade them, but it was useless. Just when the girl was about to be dragged out of the palace, suddenly a young man surnamed Shen sat on the piano platform and played the piano. The girl was stunned for a moment when she heard the sound of the piano. , actually danced."

"When I was with the girl, the girl had vowed not to dance anymore. It was the first time I saw it last night. It was really beautiful. I really don't know anyone in the world who can dance better than the girl. But since the girl came back I just kept staring at the painting in the room, and then even I was not allowed to go in to serve."

painting?Is it the landscape painting that she stared at when she met Yu for the first time?Ziqing thought for a while, then asked carefully, "Do you know who Mr. Shen is? What's his name? Also, what does he look like?"

Cui Ling replied: "It was far away at that time, and there was a gauze curtain on the piano platform, so I couldn't see his face clearly. I just heard him say this sentence from behind the gauze curtain: "I'm sinking Luoshu, I don't know Can the sound of the piano be worthy of the girl's dance? ""

"After dancing to a song, the girl just said indifferently: "Bo Ya Juexian is hurting his son, how can we meet you again tonight. "He took me back to the cabinet with me."
