Chapter 090 – Sitting Soft-shelled Turtle Watching Sword (Up)

Xu Fengyen’s large sword box in his hand is made of thousand years of chicken blood rosewood, a wood even work, the sword box itself is already worth a lot of money. Rosewood has always come from the sea, giant eunuch Han Diaoji several times to the sea, to a large extent, are going to load superior sandalwood for the royal family, even so, the big internal manufacturing office still do not hesitate to buy sandalwood with the south of the country’s private merchants, when the western Chu procurement of rosewood is the most crazy, claiming that no official does not bring sandalwood, like Xu Fengyi in front of the eyes of this in the past years the princess of taiping’s royal uncle, is the best, the literary elegance is unparalleled, to create a known to all the world’s sandalwood building, but unfortunately, in the end! Almost the entire rosewood building was moved to Tai’an City.

Xu Fengnian took a piece of silk and wiped the sword box, it is said that raising jade is like raising a person, then the precious rosewood is a small family jade, it needs to be brushed from time to time, do not make dust. This piece of chicken blood sandalwood after wiping, glossy round, vaguely have silk purple gas lingering.

Xu Fengyen is listening to the “Dunhuang Flying Sword”, coldly heard ginger mud a hiccup, the little mud man paused for a moment, seems to be some blush, Xu Fengyen flirted: “Deduction of ten dollars.”

Jiang mud angry, was about to speak, an embroidered bamboo ball thrown high, the green bird swept to the wall to catch, not let the bamboo ball fell into the courtyard, Xu Fengyian earlier heard laughter in the distance, it must be the Wang family in the play Cuju, away from the Yang Dynasty is now flourishing, naturally have a sea of broadminded, Cuju is the game of the North Mang side, not prohibited after the introduction into Liyang, and soon be the women’s preference, the women’s constraints of the dynasty is not much, but also the women’s favorite, and the women’s favorite. Trekking, banquet set society, horseback riding and archery, swinging and playing polo wearing North Mang clothing, all feasible, which has Wang Chudong today bold makeup of the environment, if twenty years ago, it is simply unimaginable, the trend, the old board Confucian can not be helped, not to mention that the great literary scholar have their own families, simply turn a blind eye to the world to say that it is not difficult to speak to the reasoning of the world, it is difficult to speak with the families of the wives and daughters of the little! The reasoning.

Xu Fengyen received the bamboo ball handed over by the green bird, let her first put the sword box back to the house, as expected, soon someone knocked on the door, Xu Fengyen saw the expected young girl, handing back the bamboo ball, asked with a smile, “Just now who kicked that kick, so much force.”

Wang Chudong stretched out her green jade finger and nodded her nose, smug.

She is lively, not good at women’s red qin and painting, swing cuju polo is very good at, but at the banquet Wang Linquan seems to be quite proud of his youngest daughter’s poetry, Xu Fengyen really can’t see that this self-cooked little girl can have what a big ink, and there is a second sister, Xu Weixiong, as well as the female scholar Yan Dongwu in the foreground, and even the little mudman has written a magnificent “big gengjiao swear to kill stickers”, Xu Fengyen even more don’t think that there is a woman in the poetry and painting can enter the eye. In terms of calligraphy and painting, Xu Fengyen did not think there was any woman in poetry or painting who would be able to enter his eyes.

At this time Wang Chudong changed clothes, narrow-sleeved robes, black boots and breeches, waist belt, Xu Fengyen looked much more comfortable, young girls learn from women half exposed breasts, this is the cart before the horse, where to come from the flavor of the charm, that 襦襦skirt replaced by Shu Shy to wear is more or less the same.

Wang Chudong tentatively asked: “Cuju together?”

Xu Fengnian shook his head and said, “No, I have to go to the market.”

Wang Chudong jumped up when he heard this, and swore, “Let’s go together, I’ll cut the price!”

Xu Fenian laughed it off, letting the green bird go and call out to Yu Youwei and the others, then threw Jiang Nai a look, the latter hesitated for a while, but still intended to follow, not familiar with the place, mainly because she had no concept of silver money, she really didn’t know what one tael of silver could do. A group of people, in addition to Xu Fengyen and the green bird that acted as his shadow, there was also Jiang Nai and Li Chun Gang, an old man and a young man, Lu Yangshu three escorts, as well as Ning Emei who had taken off his heavy armor and put on civilian clothes, the iron halberd of the word “Bu” was also placed on the boat. Wang Chudong all the way to kick the bamboo ball, movement skillful and dexterous, body shape like a swallow, very beautiful. To the slightly cold market, Xu Fengyen did not expect this basil island have Qingfu silk shop, just to fish young Wei purchase a few clothes, there are some dispensable rouge powder, Xu Fengyen generous, did not give Wang Chudong the opportunity to kill the price of the little girl sulked, the market has a building near the lake teahouse, the view is excellent, Chunshen lake water rises, the mist is long, this is the production of good tea in the best place, but until recent years Chun Shen tea became tribute, Xu Fengyen and Wang Chudong climbed to the top floor, Jiang Nai and old man Li is still in the marketplace, fish Youwei and Shu Shy companion purchase items, the result is seated only he and the Wang family gold, Ning Emei and Lv Qiantang Yang Qingfeng in the horns of the situation, upstairs and no tea customers, exceptionally clean, the owner of the teahouse obviously recognized Wang Chudong, directly out of the best quality of the Chun Shen tea, Wang Chudong hair to recommend, for Xu Fengyen brewing tea, the technique is subtle, lifting the hand and lifting the hand, the tea is very good, and the tea is good. The technique is subtle, lifting his hands and feet is a great style, so Xu Fengyen was impressed.

Picked before the Qingming tea leaves curled like a green snail, such as the bird’s tongue, the edge of a uniform layer of fine white fluff, green tea gently into the water, spring dyeing the bottom of the lake in general.

Xu Fengyen waited patiently, the little girl’s boiled tea can be described as pleasing to the eye. Wang Chudong hands served a cup of tea, said in a serious manner: “General tea first sip second sip third sip, the aroma gradually faded, spring god tea but to gradually into the good, and our basilica’s spring god tea is better than the surrounding to be better, the tea plantation is only allowed to plant bamboo, plum, orchid, osmanthus, catharanthus pine, it is not appropriate to mix with an evil wood, so basilica’s spring god tea is a long and clear aroma, but there is no fertile soil gas and green leaf gas. ”

Xu Fengyen took a sip, drink not a reason, he has been interested in drinking tea is not high, just to the spring god lake but do not drink the spring god tea really can not be said, think of a poem, it is this poem hard to keep in the bosom of the people do not know the spring god tea into a tribute, this is very much like when the second sister of the “younger brother to enjoy the snow” inadvertently baked only in the north of the famous green ants wine, subconsciously read it out:” This tea has been known since ancient times, the spirit of the spirit of my own. When I picked it on the 15th day of the moth’s eyebrow, a touch of snowy chest steamed green jade.”

Wang Chudong blinked and asked with an expectant face, “Is this poem good?”

Xu Fengyen casually said, “It’s quite good, I’ve always admired good men who can write poems and fugues, but it would be even better if I could see a young girl picking tea with my own eyes. Snow chest steaming green jade, listen to it, how poetic.”

Wang Chudong’s pretty face slightly red.

Xu Fengnian was confused and asked, “What?”

Wang Chudong’s ears reddened, did not say a word, just focusing on drinking tea with her head down.

On the top floor of the restaurant came a few pairs of young men and women, all of them are brocade fancy dress, one more than the other arrogant attitude, the first of them is not very old but full of official air of the official son saw Wang Chudong, eyes changed, walked straight to, just want to accost, was Lv Qiantang block, Wang Chudong frowned and whispered: “This person is the son of the Zhao Toutiao, idle, no ink, can be domineering, annoying tight. Nasty as hell.”

Xu Fengnian did not suppress his voice, squinted and smiled, “Commander? How big an official, third grade or not?”

Wang Chudong couldn’t help but smile, her eyes were so bright that her frustration and irritation was swept away, and she said, “Not much, only from the fourth rank.”

But after all, she is a rich family grew up in the official world, not ignorant of the world, quietly reminded: “This guy’s sister married the state pastor as a concubine, his side of the several are the big families of Qingzhou, we do not pay attention to them is.”

That from the fourth grade general’s son of the Wang family daughter has been adored, her father Wang Linquan is the richest man in Qingzhou, known as the gold and jade, half of the basilica is almost all the Wang family’s private property, but also intervene in the most is a source of wealth of the salt and iron business, the ability to rely on the mountain is hard and hot, Wang Linquan on the daughter is especially favored, and can not wait to take off the moon for it, that year, and people show off their wealth to compete with the king, the king will be in the basilica mansion on the pool of water filled with a piece of glass realm worth ten gold, the king is the most important thing in the world. The value of ten gold glazed realm, invited Qingzhou officials and dignitaries to enjoy the moon together, he and his father were present at the time, dumbfounded. In addition, Wang Chudong this little girl is not simple, when he was young, there are several monks in a row for its fortune-telling, said that this woman’s honor is unspeakable, that the popular “Spring God Tea” came from her mouth, it is said that even the palace of the Queen are full of praise, personally said with His Majesty the Emperor, Spring God Tea, which has become a tribute.

Basing on his sister’s access to the Dragon Gate to be able to walk horizontally in Qingzhou, Zhao dude saw Lu Qiantang evil dog blocking the way, the fresh clothes and horses used to the son of the sword, although the waist, but one of the sword is just to do the decoration, the second is to be able to tea with Wang Chudong guy, most of the world is not bad, he is not stupid enough to a word of disagreement to pull out a sword, if the dude are so indiscriminately killed, the world is not chaotic can not be more chaotic. So he squeezed out a smile, ready to explore the bottom first, pretending to be familiar with the warmth of the smile: “Chudong, this friend is?”

But Wang Chudong said nonchalantly, “Chudong is also what you shouted? I’m not familiar with you.”

Xu Fengnian, who was only concerned about the chaos in the world, nodded his head and said, “Yes, Chudong is only familiar with me.”

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, this kind of spiritual and tacit understanding was too much of a slap in the face.

The gang of dukes and daughters were furious for a while, the one surnamed Zhao said grimly, “Wang Chudong, don’t think I can’t move your father.”

Wang Chudong gritted his teeth and was about to stab this fox-fake asshole, when Xu Fengnian, who had frowned, had already spoken, “Are you the son of King Jing’an Zhao Heng?”

The whole audience was dumbfounded.

What the hell is this, what’s the point of bringing up King Jing’an? The gang of Qingzhou’s powerful and noble sons couldn’t help but look at each other in disbelief.

The dude surnamed Zhao who shared the same surname as the six feudal kings but was not half related to them laughed in a deep voice, “How dare you call King Jing’an by his name?!”

Xu Fengyen was not interested in drinking tea, he just wanted to sit here and watch the scenery, but he ended up bumping into these scenery-breaking idiots, and flatly glanced at Lv Qiantang, who without saying a word kicked the dude surnamed Zhao to the wall.

Chickens flew and dogs jumped, those who only bullied other people have never been bullied guys rushed to help the cohort to evacuate the teahouse, what else can be done, either call the servants to beat up the group, and then beat up, can only be moved out of their respective parents’ families, was scolded as the first evil of the Northern Liang, Xu Fengyen will still be unfamiliar with this?

Wang Chudong slightly opened his mouth, vaguely visible in the mouth of the bird’s tongue is more than the cup of the bird’s tongue dainty.

Xu Fenian laughed, “Drink tea.”

Wang Chudong in turn comforted Xu Fenian, raising a bright and carefree smile, softly saying, “It’s alright, my father will take care of it when the sky collapses.”

The little girl seemed to have forgotten that her old man had once knelt down in front of the male son in front of her.

Xu Fengyen took a sip of tea, Wang Chudong came over her little head and said mysteriously, “I’ll take you to the lake, but you’re not allowed to go back and tell my father!”

Xu Fengyen said a good, was pulled by Wang Chudong ran downstairs, to a secluded place by the lake, the little girl stood to the stone, whistled a series of whistles.

As a result, Xu Fengyen waited and waited, waited for half a cup of tea and did not see any movement.

Wang Chudong was a bit embarrassed, blushed and said, “Maybe it’s still napping, it’s like me, the most sleepy.”
