There is a flute-playing tower by the Yuhuo River, and the city is covered with crowds of people. There was no bright moon for several nights in Gusu, which took away half of Wu Palace's sorrow.
The small bridge with flowing water remains here. Occasionally, passers-by pick up their bags and continue on their way.
Chuiye and Yuan Daguang never went to talk to Su Yao. No one asked about their coming and going, as if they just met each other by chance.
A shop without wine has wine today, and the same will be true yesterday and tomorrow.
The black-sailed boat is rocking, Shantang Street, Hengtang Road, the way is clear.
After passing Gusu, we traveled by horse and carriage at high speed and arrived in Jinling in just a few days.
When Su Yao and others arrived outside Jinling City, they happened to meet Princess Xu Yanran of Xiangdong leaving Beijing, so they were stopped outside the city.
They were not allowed to enter the city until the
In the morning, the convoy of Princess Xiangdong's Prince was able to pass smoothly through the city gate when leaving Beijing. This was naturally all thanks to Huang Jiulang's arrangement.He was able to relax only after he and his subordinates received the convoy.Because the city gates no longer strictly checked people entering and leaving the city, Huang Jiulang and others were left with nothing to do after the convoy left.Huang Jiulang and his colleagues did a great job in completing their assignments, which was noticed by their superiors, so they were rewarded.As night fell, the atmosphere in the city gradually became lively. However, there were bound to be fewer guests in the city today, especially along the Qinhuai River .Most of the young men with status in their families will be able to follow their fathers into the palace tonight to attend His Majesty's banquet. As for those who did not go, they are naturally of lower status.
Guanfeng County, Miansicheng .Under the arrangements of Shen Kuang and Gong Ruhui , the Lin family had to join the Ruan family's caravan and left Miansi City safely just before nightfall .After sending the team out of the city until it disappeared from sight, Shen Kuang and Lin Wanzhao finally relaxed.Qin Han and other Ruan family ministers did not go with the team, but they would escort Ruan Shuiyan away tonight and take another way.with Ruan Shuiyan was considered accidental, but it was a great help to Shen Kuang , so Shen Kuang and Ruan Shuiyan said sincere thanks before leaving .Ruan Shuiyan , who was simple-minded, accepted it happily this time. In Ruan Shuiyan's words, it was a courtesy.Ruan Shuiyan, under the protection of Qin Han and others, first led Shen Kuang and Lin Wanzhao out of the city.Because going to Donghai City would require a long journey, and Lin Wanzhao was not suitable for riding a horse, Shen Kuang boug
When the carriage slowly drove into Donghai City, Shen Kuang's mood was so mixed that he didn't even know how to describe that feeling.It was both the first time for Shen Kuang and Lin Wanzhao to come here, but unlike Lin Wanzhao, Shen Kuang seemed to have infinite tolerance for this place in his heart. He did not find it strange, even though this place was equally strange to him.The carriage passed by slowly, and the scenes in the city were imprinted in their eyes.Donghai City has gathered countless Jianghu families and sects, large and small, and since the Jianghu disaster more than twenty years ago, Donghai City has actually slowly faded out of the sight of Jianghu people.If there is a big river and lake outside the city, then the city is made up of small rivers and lakes.What is different from other big cities is that after entering the city, what can be seen everywhere on both sides of the road are not shops selling a wide range of good
Since the two major families started fighting, Dugu Chong has strictly blocked the war in Guanfeng County and the areas to the east, preventing the war from spreading out at all.The housekeeper's war has not offended the common people for the time being. This is also a reflection of the villagers Shen Kuang and Lin Wanzhao met before.The Xianbei Murong tribe who wanted to go south from the northeast to join the two major families was also surrounded by troops sent by Dugu Chong outside Jibei Pass. Xianbei Murong simply wanted to take this opportunity to gain some benefits from the two major families. If the two major families If they win, the benefits will be greater, but if they lose, they won't lose much. They have no reason to refuse a hugely profitable deal.And even if they lost the bet, the Wei court would not waste manpower and money to attack a small tribe like theirs.So after encountering the imperial army outside Jibei Pass, the Murong tri
The moment he walked into the Shen family compound, Shen Kuang could already feel some dilapidation, and the scattered rubble everywhere he saw told the past of this place.It wasn't last night, it was a long time ago.Some parts of the old house have probably been covered with a thick layer of dust since no one has been there for a long time.Maybe he had seen too many scenes like this, so Shen Hua didn't feel any ups and downs. He told Shen Kuang that it was all because of his loss of popularity.The old man said that the house also has a spirit. Without its popularity, it will soon decline.As he talked, the old man unconsciously mentioned the past.The old man smiled and said that back then, the Shen family had an endless stream of guests coming to their door every day, not to mention its popularity.But the old man could not continue talking about this topic for too long, not because he could not but because he did not dare.
Shen Kuang and Su Yao finally spoke alone. Lin Wanzhao deliberately left space for the two of them. Lin Wanzhao knew that the two of them must have a lot to say when they met unexpectedly.Shen Kuang and Su Yao stood opposite each other, and neither spoke at first.The two had walked together on a long journey to escape, but in the end they ended up hastily.When meeting Shen Kuang again, Su Yao was obviously a little embarrassed, but Shen Kuang was much more indifferent.In fact, it may not be deliberately indifferent but to cover up the ups and downs in the heart."Long time no see." Su Yao said softly later.When she spoke, she and Shen Kuang still maintained their original distance, and no one came closer.When Shen Kuang heard this, he responded, "Long time no see."This kind of encounter was probably not what the two of them expected. One felt guilty, but the other didn't know how to face it.So they probably think t
Both Shen Kuang and Lin Wanzhao were a little surprised by the sudden appearance of Jiang Ning.After Jiang Ning saw Shen Kuang, all the words she wanted to say were suddenly suppressed.She was originally related to Su Yao, but after entering the city, she gradually felt that Shen Kuang could handle the matter by himself, so that she now didn't know what to say after seeing Shen Kuang .Jiang Ning followed Lin Wanzhao into the house, Shen Kuang looked at her with some surprise and said, "Ning'er, why are you here?"When Jiang Ning heard this, she naturally didn't say it was related to Su Yao. She explained softly, "I heard that you came to Donghai City, and I happened to be not far away, so I wanted to come and have a look."When Shen Kuang heard this, he didn't think much and asked, "Are you busy with the rebellion of Qizhou Gao family and Qinghe Cui family now?"Jiang Ning nodded and said, "The current situation is quite favorable to us.
On the first night he stayed in Donghai City, Shen Kuang slept alone.There were no twists and turns, just being kicked out.Sisters Lin Wanzhao and Jiang Ning were deeply in love so they planned to sleep together at night, but Shen Kuang had no choice but to go to Jiang Ning's room.After being kicked out of the room, Shen Kuang did not rush back to the room to rest, but went downstairs to sit for a while.At that time, many of the guests in the hall had left, so there was no noise for a while, and both the waiter and the old shopkeeper were free.The old shopkeeper Qian Jin didn't know why he liked Shen Kuang, a junior, so he saw Shen Kuang at a glance when he came down.The old shopkeeper stroked his beard and smiled, "Why did the young master come down alone?"The old shopkeeper was someone who had been here before, and he might have guessed some clues when he saw Shen Kuang coming downstairs, so he kept asking these questions.
