The next day, when Shi Tiancheng found out about this, he was very happy, and when he personally announced their marriage, all the heroes congratulated him.Fu Qingzhu and Shi Auntie led them to climb the Jiange Pavilion and visit Gui Tianlan's tomb. Han Jing and other people also shed tears in front of the tomb, causing Feng to repent of his past mistakes, wishing to spend his life to do away with his old friend's unfinished business. After sweeping the tomb, Fu Qingzhu Ling Weifeng led a group of heroes to join Li Laiheng's army.Shi Dacheng, his wife, his apprentice Yu Zhong, his daughter Zhu Jun, Zhang Qingyuan and others stayed in the valley to guard the hidden gold and wait for it to be transported.After Gui Zhongming and Mao Huanlian followed them out of Jiange, they parted ways and went to Jinghua.

At that time, Wu Sangui's army had left Yunnan from Hubei, and Guimao and his two had no choice but to pass through Gansu, transfer to Henan via Shaanxi, and then leave Hebei.Mao Huanlian was merged with Yichai, and he was called Gui Zhongming's brother. During the journey of tens of thousands of miles, Gui Zhongming regained his consciousness, and everything felt fresh, and he asked this and that stupidly from time to time, and Mao Huanlian patiently explained them one by one, just like his sister!A long journey, with a light smile and affectionate tenderness, passed one by one.Although Gui Zhongming doesn't understand the dangers of the world, but with Mao Huanlian, who is careful and cautious, there is no trouble at all.

The moon waxes and wanes, winter turns to spring, they walked for more than four months, and in the early spring of the second year, they entered Hebei.Mao Huanlian breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It will take about ten more days to reach the capital!" Gui Zhongming said, "I have always heard that there are many generous and tragic people in Yanzhao since ancient times. What kind of character have you been?" Mao Huanlian read a sentence: "Amitabha!" Putting her slender fingers on his cheek, she said, "My lord, why did we come here? You hope to meet some people from the rivers and lakes! I just hope to be quiet. It’s only a short distance to Beijing, so please don’t cause any trouble!” Gui Zhongming said, “Look, I’ll teach you a lesson just by saying something casually! I’m not a three-year-old kid. , what are you afraid of?" The two chatted and laughed, and embarked on the journey again.

That day they arrived at Julu, which is a big town. As soon as they entered the town, they saw six large mule carts walking on the street, filling the street. Those who followed the mule cart were strong and strong men.Mao Huanlian glanced at it, and said quietly to Gui Zhongming: "These people must have other backgrounds. Let's take a detour and don't mess with them." On Hengjie, I found one of the largest inns to stay. Unexpectedly, as soon as they rested, they heard the noise of people outside the inn, the jingling of the bells, and the six carts also came to stay in this inn. Gui Zhongming became curious and couldn't help but come out to look around. They pushed the big carts until they stopped in the yard. When the doors opened, six beautiful young girls walked out of each cart, a total of thirty-six of them. Gui Zhongming was dumbfounded.Mao Huanlian pinched him on the back and told him to go back to the room, and several big men looked at them.

Back in the room, Mao Huanlian also felt strange frequently. All of these thirty-six girls had unusual looks. Mao Huanlian grew up in Suzhou. Suzhou beauties have been famous since ancient times. She has never seen so many beauties! Gui Zhongming wondered: "Didn't it be snatched?" Mao Huanlian smiled and said: "Absolutely not, how could the snatched one pass through the downtown area swaggeringly!" Gui Zhongming said again: "Could it be the daughter of a rich family? Where will you be escorted?" Mao Huanlian shook her head again and said: "Although there are dozens of young girls living together in a big family, it is not unusual. But it is absolutely impossible for all of them to be so young Beautiful." Saying "Puchi" with a smile, he stretched out his index finger and scratched Gui Zhongming's face, saying: "No wonder you just saw your soul flying for nine days!" Gui Zhongming said: "Don't talk nonsense. They Thirty-six people combined are not as beautiful as you." Mao Huanlian said: "Oh, you actually know how to please people? Isn't it disgusting?"

The young couple chirped and guessed for a while, and Gui Zhongming said again: "Could it be that the emperor chose the beautiful girl?" Mao Huanlian smiled and said: "You really have never seen the world. If it is the emperor who chooses the beautiful girl, Chuanzhou When crossing the county, all the officials, big and small, would come to meet him, so why would they stay in this inn? You can’t even imagine the majesty of the emperor!" Gui Zhongming wondered: "Have you met the emperor before, and you speak so loudly? "Mao Huanlian's complexion darkened, and she said in a low voice: "I just saw it!" Seeing that she was talking and laughing, Gui Zhongming suddenly became depressed, and said in a panic: "What's wrong with you? Who cares about the emperor or not?" , let’s talk about ours." Mao Huanlian sighed and said: "Your life experience is already bleak enough, mine is even more bleak than yours. You have parents, good or bad, but my relatives only have Uncle Fu." Gui Zhongming hurriedly pointed to himself and said, "There's another me!" Mao Huanlian couldn't help laughing again because of him, pushed him and said, "Don't mess around, I said I met the emperor, then It's true, I'll tell you in detail in the future. Now, I want you to go to bed early, and when the rooster crows tomorrow morning, I want you to get up and go." Gui Zhongming said: "What are you doing?" Mao Huanlian said: "Let's Don’t be with these people. To be honest, I’m also worried about staying in this inn with them.” Gui Zhongming patted the Tengjiao Sword on his waist and said "What are you afraid of?" Mao Huanlian pushed him to the ground and said, "Hurry up and sleep, I won't argue with you anymore." She also went to bed with her clothes.The two traveled thousands of miles, and when they stayed in the hotel, Gui Zhongming slept on the ground, and Mao Huanlian had the big bed to himself.

Gui Zhongming was really obedient, and fell asleep obediently. There was nothing to do that night. The next morning, when the cock crowed, Mao Huanlian urged Gui Zhongming to get up, paid the rent, and continued on the journey. The two of them walked for thirty or twenty miles, and the sky was bright, and suddenly there was a pool of sparkling water in front of them. The ports and branches intersected, just beside the main road, and on the other side of the road was the dense forest of Gaogang.Gui Zhongming said: "The situation in this place is very good." Mao Huanlian said: "Ah, we have arrived at Su Village. This place is a famous and dangerous place on the border of the three provinces of Hebei, Shandong and Henan. I heard from Uncle Fu that there used to be a The powerful people are here, and they also do business on both land and water. The leaders are all Jiangbei thieves, but their behavior is not correct, they are greedy for money and lust, and the heroes of the green forest despise them. Later, they beat the officers and soldiers for a while. I can't stand and escape, I don't know if it is or not." Gui Zhongming said: "Even if there are robbers, they can't rob us!" While talking, suddenly the car behind him rattled, and Ma Xiaoxiao looked back. A group of people escorted by horses have already caught up.

Mao Huanlian's eyes were sharp, and he saw a dart flag hanging in front of the first cart, with the word "Wuwei" embroidered on it, fluttering in the wind.After the six carts passed by, a person in the back of the hall, about forty years old, was holding a big dry pipe, puffing out green smoke, squinting his eyes, and looked at Gui Mao and his wife, seemingly surprised, but he didn't stop. The horse galloped past. Mao Huanlian waited for the brigade to pass for a while, and said to Gui Zhongming with a smile: "You are clamoring all day long to meet people from the Jianghu, and this is a person. Wuwei Escort Bureau is the most famous one in Nanjing, and the head of the bodyguard is called Meng Wuwei. He is a little older than my Uncle Fu, and he is good at making acupuncture points with a unique weapon, the dry tobacco bag. When I was eleven or twelve years old, I met him with Uncle Fu when we went to Nanjing. It is said that his unique skills are only passed on to his son Meng Jian. It must be his son." Gui Zhongming said: "Why didn't you see the dart flag yesterday, and didn't you see this man carrying a dry pipe?" Mao Huanlian said: "They went to the city to rest last night, so there is no need to hang out the dart flag. You don't know, famous bodyguards have some strange rules, such as Meng Wuwei, he is always on the dangerous underworld, when he knows that there is a strong man waiting for him, he will smoke wildly and blow out strange smoke rings to show that it is him I am a dart guard myself, and I don’t usually smoke a lot. This man has completely followed his example. I only remembered his background when I saw his dry pipe, and I didn’t even notice who he was last night.”

Gui Zhongming snorted and said, "You're mistaken, what's so special about being able to punch acupuncture points? According to my opinion, the two skinny guys walking next to the cart have better kung fu than this guy." Mao Huan Lian stared at it carefully, but couldn't see anything unusual.Gui Zhongming said: "I'm a practitioner of the Great Eagle Claw Kungfu, and I know some ways. You see, those two people are so thin and small, and the horse they are sitting on is so tall. The horse seems to be overwhelmed. Just now they passed me by. , I heard the sound of the heavy horseshoes, and I knew that the two people's martial arts were quite advanced." Mao Huanlian wondered: "Why do you only say that they are quite good?"

Gui Zhongming said: "When you practice Eagle Claw Kungfu and Vajra Hand, which are both internal and external, you will be full of strength anytime, anywhere, standing or sitting. When you can't control yourself, external kung fu has already reached home. But internal The home kung fu has not yet reached home. If the internal kung fu has reached home, the strength can be released or received as you like, and you can't see it at all. These two people have good external skills, but their internal skills are not enough." Mao Huanlian said with a smile: "I can't even see his foreigner's kung fu, that's even worse." Gui Zhongming said seriously: "Otherwise, according to my opinion, your kung fu is similar to those two people, but higher than that of Meng Jian. You learn Your Wuji swordsmanship is a superior internal swordsmanship, how can you underestimate yourself?" Mao Huanlian raised her head and looked again, the cart had passed about half a mile away, and the man smoking the dry pipe kept looking back.Mao Huanlian laughed unconsciously and said, "This man suspects that we are robbers! I just don't know why this famous head of security in Nanjing gave bodyguards to thirty-six girls. It's so strange. Could it be that these girls are really what The daughter of a rich family, who was escorted? But it doesn't look like it!"

While speaking, the six carts in front suddenly stopped.In front of the place where the dust was rising, two horses galloped towards each other, passed the cart, and when they were approaching Guimao, they reined in their horses sharply, turned back, and galloped over again.Mao Huanlian pulled Gui Zhongming's sleeve and said, "That's the story!" Gui Zhongming kept walking and walked forward. All of a sudden, a few loud arrows were shot from a high hill beside the road, and the sound was very shrill. before the convoy. Meng Jian, the escort of Wuwei Escort Bureau, was originally escorting the rear of the team, but now he urged his horse forward, puffing out smoke rings, at first it was circular smoke rings one by one, and then the puffs of smoke were as straight as arrows, shooting into the front Among the smoke rings that were sprayed out, the smoke rings also gradually dispersed, spreading into smoke.This is the signal sent by the old escort Meng, the circle of smoke is a trap for friendship, and the straight line of smoke is a sign of force.It means: Good friends, give us Yuanyuan noodles (selling favors), otherwise if you use force, you will lose both sides, which will break the loyalty of the world. A middle-aged man slowly walked out from the opponent's formation, with fluttering robe sleeves, a handsome attitude, and good-looking features, he looked like a woman. He took out a folding fan from his sleeve, and fanned the smoke from Meng Jian into a thousand waves. Er Jing said in a dark voice: "Who am I to tell? It turns out that the head of the young escort of the Wuwei Escort Bureau personally escorted this dart." Meng Jian also said: "Who am I to tell? Since we are acquaintances, please forgive the lack of etiquette, please make up the greeting card in the future!" After speaking, he puffed out a few puffs of smoke rings, waiting for the other party to answer. While the two of them were talking, Mao Huanlian and Gui Zhongming stood far away on the side of the road.Mao Huanlian said: "Sure enough, those devils have returned to the old place." Gui Zhongming said: "Who is the man who is neither male nor female?" Mao Huanlian said: "I heard from Uncle Fu that this person is expected to be The head of the Three Demons, Hao Feifeng was a scum of the world more than ten years ago." Gui Zhongming wondered, "Why is he called a human monster?" Mao Huanlian said, "Because he was born with beautiful features, he often dressed up as a woman to confuse ladies and gentlemen. Some people also said that he is really a hermaphrodite, so they called him a shemale. But his martial arts are also really good. Several knights tried to get rid of him, but they all escaped from him. Later, it was probably because he was too old to pretend to be a woman. , This is the grass that turns into a bandit." Gui Zhongming asked curiously again: "What is a yin and yang person?" Mao Huanlian powder blushed, gave a citrus vigorously, and said: "Don't ask, just take a look, you see they are just I'm going to do it." Gui Zhongming gave her a tangerine unexpectedly, and yelled "Yo", fortunately, the two groups of people were very nervous, and no one paid attention to him. Hao Feifeng slowly raised the fan again, slapped it twice, and said with a low laugh: "What kind of airs are you trying to set up with us, Young Escort, to blow smoke rings? Let's get straight to the point. If you want us to help you save face, that's fine. But you also have to save face for us." Meng Jian took the dart, and when he saw that thirty-six beautiful girls were going to be escorted, he felt very strange in his heart, but relying on his father's prestige, he planted the dart flag and provoked the leader. From Suzhou to here, even though I ran into gangsters three or four times along the way, they only needed to blow out a few smoke rings to scare them away.Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped into Hebei, he ran into these three tough enemies.He was feeling uneasy, and when he heard Hao Feifeng's words, he seemed to have a discussion, so he hurriedly asked: "What orders does Village Master Hao have, I, Meng Jian, can do it, and I will do it." Hao Feifeng smiled wackily again, pointed his fan at the cart, and said, "We're not going to rob your darts, we just want some harmless things." Hearing that She Feifeng said that he would not rob his dart, Meng Jian was overjoyed. He didn't even hear the whole sentence, so he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, the village master, for borrowing the way." Hao Feifeng smiled coldly, and said, "The one in your car I don’t want any of the red goods (gold) and white goods (silver), but you have to keep these thirty-six girls, and you can’t lose one of them!” Meng Qiangqiang suppressed his anger, swiped his cigarette pouch, and asked in a high voice: “ Zhaizhu Hao, what kind of argument is this?" She Feifeng said sadly: "The bodyguards have always protected red and white goods, and those who have no guarantors, I don't want your goods, I only want your people, how can this be? Can it be regarded as robbing the bodyguard?" Meng Jian was so angry that his eyebrows stood on end, and he cursed: "No wonder people called you a scum of the rivers and lakes, a martial arts monster, aiming at the bodyguard flag of my Wuwei bodyguard bureau. If you want to be presumptuous, it will not work!" Hao Feifeng slapped the folding fan twice, and said with a big laugh, "Even if your father goes out, you have to leave it to me. Make your tricks (eyes) brighter. With my iron fan, I want you thirty-six girls It’s not too much.” Meng Jian glanced at the black fan and said with a “hum”: “It turns out that you are still from the Iron Fan Gang, that’s even better, I’ll just rely on this pipe, Doudou your iron fan." The Iron Fan Gang is a secret gang in the south of the Yangtze River. The head of the gang, Shang Yun, enjoys amazing martial arts, but his hands are extremely hot.Hao Feifeng was desperate, so he went to vote for him, but he didn't want to accept him, but for some reason, he was lured by Hao Feifeng, and finally made him a incense master in the gang.Hao Feifeng relied on the name of the Iron Fan Gang to return to the old place and establish a new family. Although Meng Jian was forty years old, he had always relied on his father's prestige. Since he was a bodyguard, he had never fought a real gun with hard hands.And his kung fu for punching acupuncture points with the iron rod is indeed a unique skill, so as time passes, he also thinks that he can rule the roost for a while. Seeing these three demons today, although he is not without scruples, once they are crowded Unable to get off the stage, he automatically activated his true energy, pointed at the cigarette stick, and was about to pounce on it. Hao Feifeng flicked lightly, but didn't accept the move, and said with a smile: "You want to fight me, but that's still close, the third brother will take him down." A thick and bold man came out from behind, with a single sword in his right hand, With the iron shield in his left hand, he stopped Meng Jian and shouted: "I'd like to see your Meng family's acupuncture skills!" This man is none other than the Three Demons Liu Daxiong. Meng Jian's heart was on fire, and he didn't say a word, he hit the iron cigarette pipe on his chest, Liu Daxiong held up his shield, and hit the shield with a bang, the unburned shredded tobacco flew straight out with sparks, Splash back.Liu Daxiong single-handedly attacked under the shield, cutting off Meng Jian's wrist.Meng Jian's martial arts are also not ordinary, he flicked his wrist, swung the iron smoke rod horizontally, swung the single knife away, shouted, slid sideways, and the smoke pot hit the "soul gate point" on Liu Daxiong's back .Liu Daxiong hit back with his backhand, the smoke pot hit the shield, following the twisting motion, he turned the saber light.Take the middle plate instead.Meng Jian jumped twice before avoiding this move. Gui Zhongming and Mao Huanlian were lying on the side of the road. Watching the two men fight, they saw Meng Jian fighting fiercely like an angry lion, beating and chopping with the iron cigarette bag, but he couldn't hit the enemy's acupoints. Liu Daxiong used the iron shield to cover the single sword , Offensive and defensive, played very fiercely. After fighting for a while, Meng Jian gradually fell into a disadvantage.In terms of kung fu skills, he and Liu Daxiong were on par.It's just that Liu Daxiong is a drama thief and has seen many battles. Compared with him, Meng Jian is much worse. At the end of the fight, Liu Daxiong made a false move with the shield in his left hand, threw himself down, circled around with a single sword, and slashed at him three times.Meng Jianhuo walked down the road, and the iron smoke pole "beat the golden bell", pointing at the "Tianshu point" on the enemy's back, Liu Daxiong roared, his body rose violently, and the iron shield "horizontally supported the golden beam", knocked hard, and the stone hand With a single knife, along the stem of the cigarette, slash upwards sharply. If Meng Jian doesn't let go, his fingers will be cut off. Gui Zhongming was lying on the side of the road, and when he saw Meng Jian was in danger, he secretly said to Mao Huanlian, "Let me help him." Before Mao Huanlian could stop him, Gui Zhongming made a sudden move. Fly away. This golden ring was hit at the right time, Liu Daxiong saw that he had succeeded, and suddenly heard a sound of rightness, the single sword was swung away by the golden ring.Putting the knife away, I saw that the blade was also damaged, and a small hole was missing.Meng Jian didn't know why, dragged the cigarette stick, and staggered a few steps. Gui Zhongming played the hidden weapon very well, and people on both sides were all paying attention to the fight between Meng Jian and Song Daxiong, but no one knew where the hidden weapon came from.Liu Daxiong raised his shield with his sword horizontally, and shouted loudly: "Whoever shamelessly attacked the uncle stood up, and we will have a decisive battle." Fortunately for Meng Jian, this golden ring protected the prestige of the Wuwei Escort, knowing that he was no match for him;Hao Feifeng puckered his lips and whistled, and saw a horse riding fast, and the rider jumped down, stopped Meng Jian, and said with a smile: "Boss Meng Shao, don't go!" This man is the Three Demons of Jiangbei The second Mosha Wuding in the middle is also the person who rode the horse and scouted the darts just now. Just when he was out of trouble, he encountered a strong enemy again; Meng Jian was in a panic when suddenly two horses rushed out of the convoy. Meng Jian saw that it was the two black and thin men. The two men dismounted and shouted: "Master Meng, please!" One of them grabbed the big gun in Sha Wuding's hand with his bare hands.The other person also greeted Liu Daxiong who was coming with his bare hands. Meng Jian was so surprised that he almost shouted. These two men were the ones who invited him to come as bodyguards. At that time, they claimed to be the housekeepers of a wealthy family. They were named Lu Ming and Lu Liang. For the sake of face, I came to beg the bodyguards of Wuwei Security Bureau.Meng Jian looked at them as skinny, and laughed to himself at that time, how could this rich man use "smoke essence" as a housekeeper, so he would never have expected them to have special skills. When the two of them made a move, they were caught by the Northern School's Eagle Claw Kungfu. After more than ten moves, Meng Jian was stunned.Sha Wuding's big grab is more than seven feet long, with a cluster of blood covering four sides, and it is the size of a cloak. It is picked up and swat, and the tiger is like a wind. In terms of skill, it is much stronger than Liu Daxiong, but Lu Ming only relies on a pair of fleshy palms. , is enough to resist the enemy.Sha Wuding rushed like a gun, but he couldn't hit him.Over there, Lu Liang was fighting Liu Daxiong alone, and he even bullied himself and went straight to grab Liu Daxiong's knives with the knives of a bare-handed man, but he gained the upper hand in a moment. Meng Jian gasped as he watched from the sidelines, and sighed in his heart: "Stop it, stop it! These two people have special skills, but I can't see it at all. They even exaggerate. If they are bodyguards, wouldn't it be a joke if they spread it out?" It's someone else's tooth. Even if I can keep this dart, I've lost my reputation!" Seeing the two fighting more and more fiercely, the eagle claws are good at catching hands, and their tricks are exquisite. I have never seen it before, and the more I look at it, the more strange I can't help but think. : "These two people are far superior to me, why are they asking me to be the bodyguard? If it is not intentional to tease, there must be something hidden inside." At this moment, the two couples are fighting each other, and their kung fu has also differentiated their strengths and weaknesses.Sha Wuding's moves were heavy and powerful, but he was able to resist Liu Daxiong's single sword in the sound of fierce battle, but Lu Liang swung it away, leaving only an iron shield, fighting and retreating. Hao Feifeng looks like a woman, but her kung fu is extremely neat. With a light motion, she stops in front of Lu Liang. With a finger of the iron fan, she points directly at the door of Lu Liang's face. Standing on the left side, she gently lifts it up. Lu Liang shakes her shoulders and hurriedly Going upside down, Hao Feifeng's move is called "reversing yin and yang", and it has the same effect as the grappling hand. If you give him a mossy arm, it will be sold to him. Hao Feifeng rescued Liu Daxiong, and screamed in a strange voice: "Second brother, please step back." Sha Wuding stabbed three times, forced Lu Ming to the side, withdrew the gun and retreated, panting, and stood beside Hao Feifeng . Lu Ming and Lu Liang stood side by side, Hao Feifeng spread out the iron fan, slapped two, and said with a strange laugh: "Brothers from the Lu family are really good at skills, I'm overconfident, I need you two to teach me together!" Shocked, I thought: This "shemale" is really "supernatural". My two brothers have long since quit the arena, but he can break through the history with one sip. Hao Feifeng pointed at the iron fan, and screamed again: "Are the two masters Lu not willing to teach you?" Lu Ming and Lu Liang were furious, split left and right, both rushed forward, and shouted: "Today I will definitely capture you, a monster! "Hao Feifeng grinned, slid like a fish, slipped out under the palms of the two, and said: "Do you have this ability?" With a backhand slap, he fought the two of them.Hao Fei's fan is also a school of acupressure masters, but it is much better than Meng Jian's acupressure, and his movement is extremely light, a fan points east and west, and a guide points north, all pointing at the two of them. The deadly acupoint, his left hand is not idle, he hits a fan with his right hand, followed by a palm with his left hand, using a sword move, this kind of strange move, this is the first time the Lu family brothers have come across it.Fortunately, their Eagle Claw Grabbing Hands are quite strong, and they cooperate with each other to increase their power, so Hao Feifeng didn't dare to get too close. The three of them fought like a revolving lantern and fought over a hundred moves, She Feifeng's strange moves emerged one after another, the Lu family brothers desperately supported them, but they defended more than attacked.Gui Zhongming looked at it for a long time, then shook his head and said, "These two guys are going to be bad. Eagle claw skills are good for offense and not good for defense. They are forced by the enemy to withdraw their hands to defend, and I'm afraid they will fall soon." defeat." Sure enough, after fighting for a while, the two brothers screamed resolutely and ran back.But Hao Feifeng's moves were faster than theirs, and his figure tripped them again.He shouted: "Second brother and third brother, you go grab the cart!" With a cry, Sha Wuding and Liu Daxiong led more than a hundred gangsters, and they rushed towards them like a strong wind.Hao Feifeng screamed: "As long as people, not goods, I will save old man Meng some face." Meng Jian was so angry that his face was brown, and he beat his iron pipe with all his might, and Sha Wuding picked his pipe out with a single shot during the scuffle. In the middle of the sky, the gangsters next to him threw a rope and tripped him. Liu Daxiong clasped his veins with both hands and tied him to a tree beside the road.The other strong men who escorted the car, although they also have martial arts, how could they prevent the gangsters from being so numerous, they were cornered in an instant, watching Sha Wuding and Liu Daxiong lead the gangsters, rushing towards the cart. Gui Zhongming and Mao Huanlian were lying on the side of the road, about ten feet away from the cart.Mao Huanlian had repeatedly prohibited Gui Zhongming from taking action, but when she saw the gangsters pulling away the cart Rongfeng, the girl inside screamed and screamed, and her eyebrows stood on end.Gui Zhongming said: "This group of thieves are bullying my mother, let's beat him!" Mao Huanlian jumped up and shouted: "Okay, you deal with those two leaders, and I will drive away the thieves." Gui Zhongming untied the Tengjiao sword, soaring into the air like a giant bird, after a few ups and downs, he landed in front of the convoy.More than a dozen gangsters waved their knives and guns and stepped forward to stop them. Gui Zhongming opened his eyes wide and shouted. Sweeping, a spear shot out from the oblique stab, Gui Zhongming turned around, and shouted again, there was only a "click" when the sword rose, and Sha Wuding's forty-two-jin spear was also broken He was so shocked that his mouth was bleeding, and he hurried for his life dragging half of the gun. When Gui Zhongming showed his might, Mao Huanlian had already arrived at the scene. Those gangsters were tearing up the velvet tents and smashing the car doors. rain.Those gangsters are also old in the rivers and lakes. When they are hit by a hidden weapon, they feel numb and itchy. Someone shouted: "This is poisonous sand!" You don’t even know how powerful the sand is!” The gangster yelled and fled in all directions.Mao Huanlian rolled her eyes, and saw that there were a few gangsters standing on the roof of the third car. They had snatched out a few girls and used them as cover.Mao Yuanlian was furious, put down the sand, pulled out her sword, and jumped up, the sword moved forward, swift like a civet cat, scolded twice, the two gangsters fell from the sword, Mao Huanlian kicked them from the ground Sweeping the roof of the car, he ran to the third gangster with a straight sword. The gangster pushed the girl who was holding him forward, Mao Huanlian's wrist swung, and the blade leaned to the left, and ran to the gap. The sword was extremely fast. , originally intended that this gangster would be easy to deal with, but unexpectedly he stabbed with the sword, only heard a "Dang", and when he touched it back, it turned out that it was stabbed on the shield above. The gangster was Liu Daxiong. He took the lead and snatched the cart in the middle, smashed the door, and saw six beautiful girls who were stupefied.He looked at it for a while, and took out the most beautiful girl among them, and Mao Huanlian had already snatched her up.He couldn't bear to let go, and even stubbornly resisted in the car. Mao Huanlian stabbed several swords, but Liu Daxiong deflected them cleverly.He took the girl as a hostage and covered it with an iron shield. Although Mao Huanlian's martial arts were better than him, he was afraid of throwing a mouse, but he couldn't help it in a hurry.Seeing that Mao Huanlian's sword was as tight as a sword, Liu Daxiong felt embarrassed to deal with it.Suddenly he grabbed the girl and grabbed the girl, taking advance as a retreat, drawing Mao Huanlian's sword away, laughing loudly, leaping back, and then turned over the cart, the laughter continued, and suddenly there was a burst of pain in the back of his heart In severe pain, he couldn't help letting go of his hands, and he fell down like a kite with a broken string. It turned out that Gui Zhongming was chasing Sha Wuding. In his busy schedule, he glanced back and saw Mao Huanlian fighting with others on the cart, so he sent out a Jin Huan hit Liu Daxiong's acupoint on the back of his heart. Mao Huanlian was about to turn red with anger, and she waited for the sword to jump off the cart. The girl just fell, so she put the sword back into the sheath, took it with her hand, gently patted the girl, and said, "Sister is frightened!" The girl was shocked for a while, and found herself in the man's arms, she hurriedly pushed her hands away, but the place her hands touched was a soft mass. Maohuan lotus raised sand to resist the enemy, drew his sword to save people, and in his nervousness, he forgot that he was a "man". He was touched by the girl, and he woke up abruptly. He whispered: "Sister, don't say anything, I am a woman just like you." The girl thanked her in her lap and said: "Thank you, sister, for saving my life." Mao Huanlian blushed and said, "Don't call me sister, I will accept your favor." "Thank you, sir!" Mao Huanlian smiled and said, "What's your name? How did you come here? Are these girls your sisters?" The girl's eyes turned red, and she replied, "My name is Ziju, and I'm from Suzhou City. Song girls, I bought them for someone. I didn’t know these girls before, so I heard that they bought them too.” Mao Huanlian was waiting to ask, but suddenly saw the chaos below, and the gangsters were running around, Gui Zhongming asked she called out. Over there, after Gui Zhongming sent out the golden ring and defeated Liu Daxiong, he chased forward again. The gangsters were afraid of the sword and avoided them one after another. Hao Feifeng let go of the Lu brothers and rushed over, but he couldn't suppress it. Hao Feifeng didn't see the enemy, but when he saw the sword light suddenly, he was shocked, he felt the cold air, and the cold light hit his face.Relying on his lightness and agility, he evaded three sword strikes in a row, knowing that he was no match, when the fourth sword strike came, he jumped back hastily, the iron fan instigated his hand, and swept towards the edge of the sword. Gui Zhongming was getting ready to kill, when he suddenly heard the tip of the sword buzzing, sparks flying randomly, more than a dozen short arrows flew towards him, he raised his feet to a height of three feet on the ground, and the sword struck in mid-air An arc swept away those short arrows before they fell lightly to the ground.After being blocked in this way, Hao Feifeng had already reached the river bank, and with a splash, he escaped by the water.It turned out that this hand was Hao Feifeng's life-saving technique, the iron fan had hidden mechanisms, after it was severed by the sword, more than a dozen iron fan bones turned into sharp arrows and fired at the enemy.In the past, he was chased and killed by chivalry a few times, and it was because of this unique skill that he was able to escape from death.Fortunately, Gui Zhongming's martial arts is superb, otherwise he really couldn't avoid this sudden hidden weapon. Sha Wuding was the first to escape, but he was not as fast as Hao Feifeng. As soon as he ran to the river, Gui Zhongming raised a golden ring in his hand and cracked the back of his head, killing him instantly. Don't chase, first come back and look for Maohuanlian. Hearing the call, Mao Huanlian jumped out of the cart, slashed Meng Jian's rope, and Meng Jian blushed. Smoking dry cigarettes to cover up embarrassment. The Lu family brothers inspected the surroundings, only two large cars had their doors smashed and the velvet curtains torn, and nothing else was damaged.Hastily cupped their hands to thank Gui Mao and the two, and asked for his name, they were extremely astonished, especially for Gui Zhongming's martial arts, they were all overwhelmed with admiration.It seems that Gui Zhongming is only in his twenties, but his sword skills and hidden weapons are exquisite, which is simply unheard of and unseen. Before Gui Mao and the two could answer, Meng Jian suddenly said coldly behind his back: "You two uncles, we have withdrawn from this escort. It is already a smooth journey to Beijing, and I don't need my escort, and I don't need my escort either. "Lu Ming grabbed him and said hastily: "Boss Meng, what do you mean? We were able to get here safely from Suzhou thanks to the reputation of your escort agency. It’s also a common thing for military strategists. Cough, could it be that you blame us brothers, and we will make amends for you.” After saying that, the two brothers bowed to each other.Meng Jian was very embarrassed, but he couldn't lose his temper anymore. Gui Zhongming also stepped forward to persuade him. Meng Jian sighed and said, "The two masters Lu are really good at martial arts, and these two high-ranking officials are even better at martial arts. The Wuwei Security Bureau has to protect its reputation." , it all depends on you, when I get back, I will tell my father to suspend the Escort Bureau. Then I will reward you all.” What he said was the truth. He saw that everyone’s martial arts were getting better and better, and he couldn’t help but feel disheartened. Eat this river and lake meal. Liang Lu smiled slightly, and revealed the matter, Gui Mao and the two casually made up a pseudonym, exchanged a few words of greeting, and then took their leave.The Lu family brothers held on, urging them to go to Beijing together, Gui Zhongming glanced at Mao Huanlian, and Mao Huanlian suddenly said with emotion: "Since the two of you are so enthusiastic, let's talk about it. "Liang Lu was overjoyed, and immediately gave up his two horses, repaired the cart, and invited Gui Mao and his wife to go on the road together. Along the way, Liang Lu used words to ask Gui Mao and his wife. Mao Huanlian was very clever and answered vaguely.She asked Liang Lu with words, and Liang Lu also answered vaguely. When the question was tight, she just replied: "When we arrive in the capital, my two brothers should invite you to my master's house to make amends and thank you." Shallow talk is deep", but it is a big taboo in the world, so I will not pursue it any further.As for Meng Jian, he was silent all the way, tired of interest, although he was full of doubts, he refused to speak. After walking for more than ten days, when he arrived in Beijing, Gui Zhongming saw that the city wall was high and steep, the west mountain was majestic, and the camps and palaces were connected with clouds.He has been in the mountains for a long time, and he has seen such a scene several times.Just when my heart is comfortable and my eyes are dazzled.Suddenly Meng Jian asked coldly: "Uncle Lu, the bodyguards have been escorted to the capital, where can I hand them over?" Lu Ming raised his whip and smiled, and said, "Nalan Prime Minister's Mansion!" Meng Jian was taken aback, and asked back, "Nalan Prime Minister's Mansion?" Lu Ming smiled slightly and said, "It's Nalan Prime Minister's Mansion." Meng Jian said with serious eyes, "Then the two are the teachers of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Lu Ming and Lu Liang said at the same time: "Don't dare!" Meng Jian was angry in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it out of his mouth.How experienced Lu Ming is, he has already seen it, and hurriedly said: "It's not that my brothers are playing tricks on my brother on purpose. This is the idea of ​​our master Xiangfu, and we just follow orders." Mao Huanlian asked: "Then this The thirty-six girls were also bought by the Xiangye?" Lu Mingdao: "Exactly, the master of the Xiangfu asked us to come forward and begged the head of the boy bodyguard in Nanjing to transfer to the expensive bodyguard bureau for protection, because he was afraid that there would be trouble on the way, so we borrowed Your bodyguard flag suppresses some dubious little robbers." Meng Jian snorted and thought: "So you just see us as the paper Jiang Taigong, which is useless and can only be used to scare little ghosts. But when you encounter a tough situation, you two brothers have to go out, so you follow the car calmly. It's a pity that when you encounter a tough situation, even the two of you can't resist." He turned the horse's head , arched his hands and said: "According to the rules, we should go to the bodyguard's house to confess, but the gate of the prime minister's house is high, and our generation of principals dare not go in. The two teachers have a good word for us, you can escort the bodyguard back by yourself, I Meng Jian appreciates it." After finishing speaking, he bowed deeply to Gui Mao and his wife to express his gratitude.Don't listen to dissuasion, pull the horse and leave.In his heart, he was very dissatisfied with Er Lu and Tong Biaotou, but he was deeply grateful to Gui Mao. Gui Zhongming saw him walking in anger, and thought: "This man is also a man of blood." He pulled Mao Huanlian and was about to leave, but Lu Ming stepped forward to stop him: "This time there are two more brothers."出手,小弟交浅言深,如两位兄台未有落足之处,就请到相府里去谋个差事如何?”桂仲明怫然不悦,几乎就要发作,不料冒烷蓬却是喜形于色,连声笑道:“多谢两位教师爷关照,我们也不客套推辞了,若然得在相府安身,那可是求之不得!”桂仲明猛然会意,立刻装出笑容,连声道谢。 大车在京城街道上长驰而过,向着相府前行。路上冒浣莲再问相府买这三十六个少女干嘛?陆家兄弟这时已把两人当做自己人,不再隐瞒,告诉他们道:“这三十六个少女都是相爷暗中请人在苏杭两地搜买的,有些是出名歌女,但大多数是贫寒人家的标致女儿。也难为买的人选得个个都是这样如花似玉。至于为什么买的,那我们可不知道了。” 列位看官,你道是为什么买的,说起来却有一段故事。原来纳兰容若虽然是当时第一才子,尤以向名冠于全国,他的父亲纳兰明珠,却是个不通文墨,庸俗不堪的人。他仗着是宗室内亲,又善奉承,从部曹微职一直升到当朝的大学士(宰相)。他见顺治和康熙两个皇帝都很注重文学,便暗地里招纳了许多文人供养在家,做了许多文章,冒充是自己做的,献进宫去,博取皇帝欢心。纳兰容若自幼在许多人才熏陶之下,加以天资聪敏,因此年纪轻轻,便成一代才子。康熙皇帝和他年龄相差不远,见他如此才学,宠爱异常。因此有人说,明珠之能做到大学士,得他儿子之力不少,可算是官场一件异事。 有一天纳兰明珠陪着康熙在西书房闲话,说起在庄子南华经里的一段故事,记不清楚,叫内监取书来查,那内监错拿了老子的道德经,康熙跺着脚骂道:“蠢虫!”又叹口了气对明珠道:“这班蠢物真是讨厌,从来说的'红袖添香夜读书'多么有趣。朕富有四海,就是缺乏那么几个冰雪聪明的女孩替朕添香夜读。想那南唐李后主,虽是亡国之君,却有大小周后,娴熟同章,精通音律,风流韵事,万古流传,朕反而比不上他呢!”明珠听了,因事涉内廷,不敢作声,但心中却有了一个打算。 明珠回府之后,想起苏杭州,山川秀美,灵气所钟,素多美女,立刻打发家人到苏杭一带挑选那些体态苗条,面貌清秀的标致女孩儿,准备收在府中,请文人学士教会诗书,琴师舞娘训练歌舞。训练成功之后,再偷偷献给皇上。但明珠为了沽名钓誉,不敢公然以相府之名,请地方官派兵护送。因此,才由相府的师爷定下计策,叫陆明、陆亮两个武土出面,转请武威镖局,护送来京。 陆明陆亮将三十六名少女,送到相府之后,明珠自然十分高兴。但因他一心盘算怎样训练的事情,对陆明陆亮保荐桂冒二人,却不耐细听下去,随便把手一挥,说道:“既然你有两个朋友要进来,就安插他们在园子里看园吧。”这个差使,等于仆役,两陆对桂冒说及,都觉不好意思,却不料二人一口就答应了。 桂冒二人进了相府之后,一心想见纳兰容若,探听张华昭的消息,不料一连两三个月,都没见着。看守花园,又不能随便出去,闷得桂仲明什么似的。冒浣莲虽然不时安慰他,但想起吴三桂举事之后,外头大局不知如何,亦是不禁心焦。 春来春去,转瞬到了榴花照眼的五月,一日清晨时分,桂仲明被遣去监督修理园子的工人,冒浣莲一人独自在花径徘徊。不知不觉,通过假山石洞,来到了园子深幽之处,只见林木葱郁,奇花烂漫,一带清流,从花木深处泻于石隙之下,两边飞楼插空,雕栏绣槛,皆隐于山坳树梢之间,景色美丽极了,也幽雅极了。冒浣莲心道:“天上神仙府,人间宰相家。这话说得果是不错!”正呆想间,忽听得有音乐之声远远飘来。她不觉循着乐声寻去,绕过几处假山,只见面前豁然开朗,一面水平如镜的荷塘横在面前,池搪上千百朵红莲,都已开放。四面红莲围绕中,池中心又有几十朵特别盛开的白莲,宛如素衣仙女,立在水中央,池塘周围有白石为栏,池上有小桥九曲,蜿蜒如带,池中的一个小亭上面,有几个舞娘翩翩起舞,亭中有一个少年公子,独自弹琴。那几个舞娘,就随着琴声,且歌且舞。 冒浣莲妙解音律,远听琴声,只觉一片凄苦情调,不禁呆了心想:纳兰容若富贵荣华已到了顶点,年纪轻轻,才名绝代人更是古今罕见,他还有什么不满足的,她不觉步上小桥,向池塘中央的亭子走去。走到一半,亭上歌声嘎然而止。只听得纳兰容若说道:“这一首不宜合唱,只宜清歌,紫菊你给我按谱唱吧。”说罢,又弹起琴来,根本没注意到有人走下小桥。 冒浣莲听得“紫菊”二字,觉得这名字好熟,正思索间,琴声已起,其声凄苦,比前更甚,宛如三峡猿啼,鲛人夜泣。一个少女,面向纳兰,背向浣莲,按谱清歌。歌道:
歌声方停,一声裂帛,琴弦已断了几根。纳兰容若推琴而起,叹了一口气。冒浣莲听得如醉如痴,心想:“怪不得我一进园子里来,就听人说,纳兰公子是个痴情种子,他夫人已死了一年,他还是这样哀痛。这首悼亡词真是千古至性至情的文字!”她咀嚼“梦好难留,诗残莫续”几句,想道:“难道年少夫妻,恩深义重,真是易招天妒吗?”想到这里,不禁心里笑道:“怎的这样容易伤感,我和仲明就是一对天生爱侣。”她想着想着,自觉比纳兰容若“幸福”多了。 这时那歌女回转头来,见冒浣莲站在亭前,忽然“咦”的一声,低低叫了出来。冒浣莲一看,认得她就是当日自己在大车上救出的少女,怪不得名字这样熟。冒浣莲急忙向她打个眼色,跨进享来。 纳兰容若听得紫菊低叫,抬起头来,只见一个俊俏少年,卫士装束,不觉也有点惊诧,问道:“你是谁?你喜欢听琴?”冒浣莲道:“我是看园的。公子,你这首'沁园春'做得好极了,只是太凄苦了些。”纳兰容若奇道:“你懂得词?”冒浣莲微微一笑,道:“稍微懂得一点。”纳兰容若请她坐下,问道:“你觉得这词很好,我却觉得有几个字音好像过于高亢,不切音律。”冒浣莲道:“公子雅人,料不会拘泥于此,古代之词,先行音乐,而后按声填词,尤以周美城、姜白石两大词家更为讲究?但其弊病却在削足适履,缺乏性灵,所以苏(东坡)辛(弃疾)出,随意挥洒,告成词章,倚声一道,大增光彩。但有时却又伤于过粗。公子之词,上追南唐后主,具真性情,读之如名花美锦,郁然而新。又如碧海澄波,明星皎洁。何必拘泥于一字一音?”纳兰容若听得睁圆了眼! 冒浣莲对词学竟的见解和纳兰容若完全一样,令纳兰容若惊奇的是:以冒浣莲这样一个“看园人”的身份,居然讲得出这番话来。他不禁喜孜孜地拉起冒浣莲的手,说道:“你比那些腐儒强得多了!怎的却委屈在这里看园?”冒浣莲面上发热,紫菊在旁边“嗤”的一声笑了出来,冒浣莲不自觉地把手一摔,纳兰容若只觉一股大力推来,蹬!pedal!pedal!连退了三步,连忙扶着栏杆,定了定神,笑道:“原来你还有这样俊的功夫!”他还以为冒浣莲怀才不遇,所以故意炫露,文的武的都显出一手。 冒浣莲一摔之后,猛的醒起,自己已扮成男子,却不自觉的露出女儿本相,岂不可笑?纳兰容若又道:“我有一位书僮,也像你一样,既解词章,亦通武艺。你有没有功夫?我倒想叫你和他见一见面。”冒浣莲大喜,连忙答应。纳兰容若洒脱异常,携着她的手,步下小桥。他是把冒浣莲当朋友看待,以相国公子和“看园人”携手同行,在当时可是个震世骇俗之事。 冒浣莲见他纯出自然,就让他牵着自己的手,走出享子。 两人走出亭子,转过山坡,穿花拂柳,盘旋曲折,忽见迎面突出插天的大玲珑山石,上面异草纷垂,把旁边房屋悉皆遮住。那些异草有牵藤的,有引蔓的,或垂山岭,或穿石脚,甚至垂檐挂柱,索砌盘阶,或如翠带飘摇;或如金绳幡屈,幽香阵阵,扑入鼻观,比刚才的荷塘胜地,更显得清雅绝俗,冒浣莲道:“这样的地方,也只有像公子这样的人才配住。”纳兰容若骤遇解人,愁怀顿解,兴致勃勃地替她解释:那牵藤附葛的叫“藤萝薛荔”,那异香扑鼻的是“杜若衡芜”,那淡红带软的叫“紫会青芷”这些异草之名,都是冒浣莲在“离骚”“文选”里读过的,却一样也没见过,这时听纳兰容若一一解释,增了不少知识。 两人一路清谈,不知不觉穿过藤蔓覆绕的游廊,步入一座精雅的清厦。这间大厦连着签棚,四面回廊,绿窗油壁,群墙下面是白石台阶,凿成朵朵莲花模样,屋子里是大理石砌成纹理,门栏窗户,也都细雕成时新花样,不落富丽俗套。四面香风,穿窗入户。纳兰容若说道:“在这望煮茗操琴,焚香对奕,当是人生一乐。”说罢拍了几下手掌,唤出几个书傻,说道:“上去请昭郎来。”不一会上面下来一个英俊少年,冒浣莲一眼瞧去,正是当日在五台山相遇的张华昭,只是他比前略为清瘦,从抑郁的目光中看出,似另有心事。张华昭见着冒浣莲也是一呆,心想:这人面貌好似在哪里见过,却一时想不起她是谁来。 三人在庭院中茶靡架下,围着一张大理石偻花桌子,盘膝而坐,旁边水声混淆,出于石洞,上则藤萝倒垂,下则落花浮荡,院子外有一丛修竹,高越短墙。蝉声摇曳其间,宛如音乐,浣莲道:“真好景致。”纳兰容若见桌上有棋枰一局,未敛残棋,忽然起了棋兴,对冒浣莲道:“你们两人下一局如何?我做裁判。”张华昭道:“公子既有棋兴,何不和这位兄台对下,让我开开眼界。”纳兰容若笑道:“局外观棋,更饶佳趣。”说着已把棋子摆了起来。张华昭瞧了冒浣莲几眼,越看越觉面熟,心念一动,拈着棋子说道:“好,待我输了,公子再给我报仇。”他第一步就行了个当头炮。 纳兰容若在旁一面看一面笑,张华昭一开局便着着进攻,进中兵起连环甲再出双横车,七只棋子向对方中路猛袭。冒浣莲沉着应战,用屏风马双直车坚守阵地,着法阴柔之极,行至中变,已带攻带守,反夺了先手。纳兰容若笑道:“昭郎,你这是吴三桂的战法!”张华昭愕然问道:“怎么?”容若道:“吴三桂这次举事,声势汹涌,王辅臣在西北起兵,尚耿两藩在南方遥为呼应,吴三桂亲自率领大兵,攻出湖北,想沿江而下,攻占全国心脏。攻势是猛烈极了,但依我看来,非败不可!”张华昭道:“那你是说,我这局棋也和他一样,输定了?”纳兰容若笑道:“那还需说?”说不多久,冒浣莲大军过河,张华昭子力分散,果然已呈败相。纳兰容若正色说道:“按说我们满洲人,入关占你们的地方,我也很不赞同。只是吴三桂要胡复明,那却是不配!”冒浣莲冷冷说道:“这不像是皇室内亲说的话。”纳兰容若蹙眉说道:“看你超迈俗流,怎的也存种族之见?满汉两族,流出的血可都是红的,他们原应该是兄弟。满洲贵族,自有罪孽,可是不见得在贵族中就没有清醒的人!”冒浣莲暗暗叹道:“他的父亲是那样污浊可鄙,他却是如此清雅超拔,看来'有其父必有其子'这句话,真是荒谬的了。”纳兰容若又道:“其实,朝廷怕的不是吴三桂,而是蔽在深山中的李来亨,他兵力虽小,威胁却大。这次朝廷派兵去打吴三桂,分了一路兵扑李来亨,在三峡险要之地,给李来亨伏兵出击,全军覆没。”冒浣莲大喜说道:“他们打胜了!”一不小心,给张华昭吃了一只马,纳兰容若惊异地望她,冒浣莲自觉露迹,急忙低下头来用心下棋,结果因子力少了一马,给张华昭以下风抢成和局。 纳兰容若微笑道:“你的棋下得很好,现在轮到我来领教了。”正摆棋子,忽然丫鬟传报,夫人有请,而且定要昭郎同去。容若问了冒浣莲的姓名(假名),拱拱手道:“我明日再派人找你。”张华昭跟着出去,冒浣莲走在后面。忽然张华昭回手一扬,冒浣莲接急忙伸手接着,手指一捏,是一个小小的纸团。 冒浣莲把纸打开,只觉一阵幽香扑鼻,上面写着“今夜请到天凤楼”几个小字,色泽淡红,纸上还有一两片揉碎了的花瓣。不觉心中自笑:“张华昭和纳兰公开同在一起,居然学得如此风雅,以指甲作笔,以花汁作墨,和我暗通消息了。”她一面笑,一面佩服张华昭心思灵敏。对奕之时,时有落花飘下,当时见他用花瓣玩耍,毫不在意,却料不到他已看出自己是同道中人,用此来书写文字,出手之快,令人吃惊,不但瞒过了纳兰公子,连自己也不知道他是什么时候写的。 冒浣莲目送纳兰容若和张华昭二人,在家丁和丫鬟簇拥之中,从侧门走回大院。她也缓缓而行,从原路走回,去找桂仲明。只觉路上碰见的人,似乎都在用惊异的目光注视自己。 绕过假山,穿过花径,走了一会,见桂仲明和园中的花王迎面走来,冒浣莲叫他一声,桂仲明却把头别过一边,不理不睬。花王毫不知趣,在旁边唠唠叨叨地说道:“你这个同伴要发迹了,我们的公子呀,什么大官来拜访他,他都懒得去见,偏偏对你的同伴要好得紧,拉他的手在园子里走了好大一段路。老哥我看你也要跟着得意了,有什么好处,可别忘了老朋友啊!”桂仲明“哼”了一声,肩头一耸,花王正搭手上来,忽然,“哎哟”一声,跌倒地上。桂仲明转身便跑,冒浣莲飞步急赶,尖声呼唤。 桂仲明叹了一口气,回头说道:“你还追我作什么?”冒浣莲又气又恼又好笑,拉着他的手道:“你这人呀,就像你的父亲,你忘记我是男子打扮了吗?他要拉我的手,难道我也要像你摔花王一样,把他摔个半死?”桂仲明听她说到“就像你的父亲”这句话时,如中巨棒,想起自己父亲因误会而迫死养父、拆散家庭的事,立时愤火全消,但仍绷着脸道:“我就是不高兴你和这种少爷亲热!”冒浣莲盈盈一笑,低声说道:“你说他是哪一种少爷?他这种少爷可与别的少爷不同。”说罢把纳兰容若的行径胸襟,细细对桂仲明剖解。桂仲明听得连连点头,不再言语。 冒浣莲待桂仲明完全平静后,问道:“你是特地来找我的吗?”桂仲明道:“陆明陆亮今日从相府那边过来,我正在监工,他拉着我对我说,昨晚他们轮值,忽然发现武林高手从相府一座楼顶一掠而过,只看那身轻功,就比他们高明得不却多少倍,他们不敢追赶,想请我们助他一臂之力,这几晚给他们巡视门户。你不在身边,我拿不定主意。你说我们犯不犯得着真的给他们做看门。”冒浣莲想了想,说道:“答应他们吧。我们虽不是替相府看门,也要会会这位武林高手。” 说话之间,那个花王已从地上爬起,走了过来。冒浣莲道个歉迎上去问道:“天凤楼是不是在西院。” 花王点头道:“正是在西院,那是纳兰公子的书房。”他睁大眼睛,瞧了瞧冒浣莲,忽然拱手说道:“是不是公子叫你到天凤楼当差?那可是最好的差事!”冒浣莲笑而不答,谢过花王拉着桂仲明各自回房休息,准备养好精神,夜探天凤楼,访寻张华昭。 两人睡了个午觉,再出来时,只见园中香烟缭绕,花影缤纷,所有不是应节开花的树,虽无花叶,也用各色绸缕纸绢及通草为花,粘于枝上,真是个花团锦簇、富丽异常。冒浣莲拉着一个小厮问道:“怎的今天园子里布置得这样华美?”那小厮伸伸舌头说道:“中午时分,三公主驾到,你都不如道吗?你出园看看,那銮舆车仗,排得多长?三公主和我们的相国夫人,交情最好,以前每个月都要来一两次,一住就是几天。这次不知怎的,隔了好几个月才来。”冒浣莲听后,想起早上纳兰公子被夫人匆匆召去之事,大约是和三公主之来有关了。 到了晚上,园子里的景色更美,小河两岸的石栏,挂满许多水晶玻璃的各色风灯,点得如银花雪浪;绿树枝头,又遍缀水晶葡萄,作为装饰,上下争辉,水天焕彩,把园子装点得似玻璃世界,珠宝乾坤。桂冒二人,却是无心鉴赏,听得打过三更,各处沉寂之后,两人换过一身黑色的夜行衣,展开绝顶轻功,迳自扑奔西院,找了许久,才在离雕栏玉砌的重重院落之间,看到古槐树荫下,红楼掩映,上面彩纱宫灯,缀成“大风樱”三字。冒浣莲大喜,对桂仲明说道:“你在外面巡逻,我进去探张公子。” 冒浣莲飘身而上,在每一层楼翘出来的檐角,都停了一下,张望进去,却是奇怪,楼房都是空无一人,直上到顶楼,方始听见女子说话的声音,声调十分幽怨。 冒浣莲贴耳在纱窗上,只听得那女子说道:“人们都羡慕荣华,帝王之家是荣华极致。我却只知道:深宫如鬼域,度日似长年。我还算较好的了,容若自小和我玩得来,后来又和你认识,你们像一股清风,给我揭开深宫的帘幕,看到一点点外在的阳光。我的姐妹,她们更惨。名为公主,如受制于保姆,莫说父王不易见,就是嫁出之后,一生见不着附马,也属寻常。张公子,你就一点也不可怜我吗?”冒浣莲听得大惊,悄悄用指在纱窗上挖了一个小洞,张眼一看,只见壁面坐着一位旗装少女,美艳绝俗,气度高华。对面站着的英俊少年,正是日间所见的张华昭。心想:莫非此女就是什么公主?怎的她会和张华昭这样厮熟,深更时分,在高楼之上谈心?正疑惑间,张华昭低低叹了口气,说道:“我有什么办法?”停了一下,忽然背着公主把手一扬,一个小纸团,恰恰穿过纱窗上的小孔飞出。冒浣莲接过,打开一看,只见上面写道:“过一会再来!”正当此际,忽听得外面一声清啸。exactly: How about knowing the future?Please listen to the breakdown next time.
