As the saying goes, it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. I have been drinking a lot of good wine recently, and I am afraid that I will not be able to drink bad wine in the future.
He looked at the wine glass and said to himself: "I can't drink such good wine anymore. Tonight is the last bottle."
He is not a person who is greedy for pleasure. Being too obsessed with something will consume people's willpower. This is why his self-control is stronger than ordinary people.
Taking another sip, a thin layer of steam evaporates in the mouth, and the layered fragrance evaporates all at once.
It turns out that this is how you should taste good wine. I thought drinking was a wild thing, but how could I expect it to be so elegant?
His eyes suddenly half-closed, and his ears were as sensitive as ordinary people's. When he heard a visitor coming, the footsteps were very light, as light as fallen leaves floating on the snow.
His gait is straight and evenly paced. He is a person who walks so often that he is so used to it that it seems like he was born with it.
woman?
Or a man, in his impression Lu Wenlin was also so elegant.
Suddenly the footsteps stopped, just like the wind suddenly stopped and the falling leaves disappeared.
Why stop?
After about two or three breaths, the soft footsteps continued again. They just took a step, but stopped again.
In the short journey, he actually stopped a dozen times. Xie Fu couldn't help but become interested in the visitor and looked towards the door to greet the guests.
When he arrived, Xie Fu opened his eyes. Just a step away, the person who came suddenly stopped, this time for dozens of breaths.
Who is coming? Just when Xie Fu squinted his eyes slightly and was full of interest in the person coming, a flash of red Qiluo suddenly broke into his eyes, and Xie Fu couldn't help but let out a cry.
The person who came was tall and tall, wearing a red cloak, his black hair was tied up in a noble and cool style, his temples were flowing and elegant, his face was white and handsome, and he was as heroic and beautiful as when he first met him.
Wearing red cloud boots and wearing a cape, she looks as heroic as a female general.
It was Chen Qinglan who came, and Xie Fu couldn't help but smile slightly, remembering the first time he met Chen Douzhi.
That day at the gate of Qin Tower, he and Hu Diquan looked vulgar and were treated as bearers, while Chen Douzhi was surrounded by stars and attracted everyone's attention.
Xie Fu was a little distracted thinking about it, and Chen Qinglan also stood at the door silently, with her head slightly lowered.
It wasn't until a gentle "Mr. Xie" was heard that Fu Xie came back to his senses and stood up: "Chen Douzhi, why are you here?"
Xie Fu and her were old acquaintances. Although their relationship was not close, they still had a certain friendship. They also taught together at Taiping Primary School and competed in painting. The name Chen Duzhi was appropriate.
Chen Qinglan's face turned red, and she lowered her head. She didn't dare to look at Xie Fu with her clear eyes, and her eyes were filled with water, as if she was very shy.
This was completely different from the Chen Qinglan in his impression. Xie Fu asked curiously: "Chen Douzhi, what's wrong with you?"
Chen Qinglan bit her sandalwood lip gently with her teeth, and Xie Fu asked: "Chen Douzhi, please tell me if you have anything to say."
Chen Qinglan's lips moved. Xie Fu thought she was about to speak, but unexpectedly she bit her lips deeper and did not utter a single word.
Xie Fu smiled and said: "Chen Douzhi, although you and I are not close friends, we can be considered acquaintances. We had a painting competition in Taiping Primary School. Chen Douzhi was impressed by your charm and talent. Xie Fu was deeply impressed.
, I admire you deeply, so please tell me if you have anything to say.”
Listening to Xie Fu mentioning the past, Chen Qinglan's body trembled slightly, and her cloak trembled like a touch of red water.
Seeing her reaction like this, Fu Xie guessed that she must have something to hide and was unable to speak, so he stepped forward to greet the guests: "Chen Douzhi, please sit down in the room and talk."
When Chen Qinglan saw him moving suddenly, she panicked like a frightened rabbit and shouted: "Stop!"
Xie Fu stopped as soon as she drank. He has always been a gentle and considerate person, and asked softly: "Chen Douzhi, what happened?"
"I...I...I..."
Chen Qinglan was anxious and embarrassed, her eyes were red and wet, and she cried anxiously.
Xie Fu was shocked in his heart, something big must have happened, but his face was calm and calm: "Chen Douzhi, please speak slowly in the house." He quietly moved towards her with footsteps.
Chen Qinglan was very keen. As soon as Xie Fu took a step, he said in surprise: "I won't go in!"
Xie Fu stopped, kept a foot away from her, smiled and said, "That's fine, just talk like this."
Chen Qinglan trembled and called out: "Thank you, Mr. Sir."
"Please tell me." In order to appear closer, Xie Fu even omitted the words "Chen Douzhi". The relationship between the two was not considered close, and it was not easy for her to find him.
"I have a request."
"But it doesn't matter, I can do it with all my strength."
"I want...I want..."
Chen Qinglan paused and said, and her long, white hands, which were good at calligraphy and painting, slowly moved to the tie of the cloak under her neck: "I want you to be my master!"
The moment she said these words, she also untied the laces of the red cloak. Like a curtain, a sheet of white snow came into Xie Fu's eyes, but there was not a single strand of snow inside the cloak.
Fu Xie was dumbfounded in shock, but what lingered in his mind was her graceful and elegant appearance at the reception, her calmness and calmness, and her sharp words when faced with the guests' sarcastic remarks.
The person asked in confusion: "What are you doing!"
Chen Qinglan bit her lip and said, "I want you to be my master." After saying this, tears escaped from the corners of her eyes and slid down her red and angry cheeks.
Xie Fu came to his senses and said in a deep voice: "Pull up the cloak."
Chen Qinglan shook her head, her tearful eyes seemed filled with endless grievances. Xie Fu simply stepped forward to help her close the cloak and tie the laces.
I wanted to scold you for a few words. You are a famous person in Suzhou. You are sought after by countless talented people and celebrities. Why did you treat yourself like this? Seeing her aggrieved and weak, you couldn't bear it.
Without asking any more questions, he said calmly: "You can go back."
Chen Qinglan shook his head: "If you don't promise me, I won't go back."
How could Fu Xie agree to such a ridiculous thing? If it were his lover, it would be fine as a girlfriend, but he and Chen Qinglan had no relationship at all between men and women.
I guessed that it was Zhang Lingluo who was responsible. The two of you were just having fun, and the competition got to my head. Shen Rong said, "I'll go back with you."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Chen Qinglan made a sound like thunder from the sky, and knelt down: "Thank you, Master, please help me."
Xie Fu was in a dilemma. It was impossible to agree to her, and kneeling all the time was not an option: "You go into the house first and me together." After saying that, he turned around and entered the house.
Chen Qinglan said yes, got up and followed Xie Fu into the house, closed the door with a sound, and then stood timidly at the door. Seeing Xie Fu looking at her, she took the initiative to say: "Mr.
It’s very embarrassing to do something like this once.”
I don't know if it was Mr. Xie's calmness and politeness that made Chen Qinglan feel more comfortable, and she also secretly admired him in her heart. Mr. Xie was indeed an extraordinary man. If he were an ordinary man, he would have shown his despicable face.
Xie Fu said with a smile: "Chen Douzhi, the two of you are playing a bit...but, I can't play this kind of game."
Treating this as a game also greatly avoids the awkward atmosphere.
Chen Qinglan hummed: "I haven't tried many things. Mr. Xie, why don't you give it a try, maybe you will like it."
Xie Fu raised his hand and said, "Thank you very much. No matter what she tells you to do, you will stay with me for the time being. When the time is up, you can go back."
Chen Qinglan lowered his head and said nothing, and Xie Fu said calmly: "Of course, if you are bored, you can also sit down and drink a few glasses of wine. With your talent, Chen Douzhi, you are not afraid of running out of topics."
"I'm afraid not."
Mr. Xie's face darkened, and he looked like he would be fined if he didn't propose a toast.
Chen Qinglan explained weakly: "The master wrote a few words on my back. I can't see them myself. If I can't read them out when I get back, I have to..."
Xie Fu couldn't help but yell: "It's none of my business!"
Chen Qinglan suddenly pulled out the hairpin on her head and held it against her chest. Xie Fu slapped the table and stood up: "You threaten me!"
Chen Qinglan shook her head with a clear expression, pursed her lips and said nothing.
Xie Fu waved his hand helplessly: "Turn around and let me see what words are written." I have already read it, so I might as well take another look.
Chen Qinglan turned around, her red cloak slipped off, and white snow appeared on the ground like red water washing the stone. There were a few black characters on the snow ridges, and Xie Fuzhao read them out: "Master, please take care of your Shao Mu..."
Xie Fu stopped in a hurry, but Chen Qinglan asked: "Is there anything else?"
"dog……"
The room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, and even your breath stopped.
"Go back and tell her that Uncle Fu thanked her so much!" Xie Fu was very cold at the end.
Chen Qinglan put on her cloak again. At this moment, Xie Fu said, "Someone is coming."
Chen Qinglan screamed, she could let Xie Fu see it, but others couldn't.
Xie Fu added: "Sneaky and sneaky, maybe it's your master...playmate who came to find out the truth."
Chen Qinglan said nervously: "Then what should I do? If the master knows that I have not completed the task, he will abandon me."
As he spoke, he hurriedly walked towards Xie Fu. Xie Fu backed away: "Hey, hey, hey..."
Chen Qinglan looked determined at this time: "Play with me."
Xie Fu suddenly had a stern look on his face. He was at least a second-level master. Zhang Lingluo did not have this level of cultivation. "No, it's someone else!"
Chen Qinglan panicked and immediately gathered her slightly spread cloak tightly to make it airtight.
Xie Fu said calmly: "Here we come, you first find a place to hide."
Chen Qinglan was a little panicked and didn't know what to do. Xie Fu pointed toward the curtained dressing room: "There."
As soon as Chen Qinglan hid in, a shadow appeared under the light at the door. Her clothes were tight and there were no traces of ribbons. Her figure was tall and strong, similar to Hong Ye's, but more narrow and muscular than Hong Ye's exaggerated appearance.
Who was coming? Xie Fu couldn't think of a familiar person for a moment, until the man at the door said: "Hushu Baowei!"
Only after thanking Fu did he know who was coming: "Shaluo."
Hearing Xie Fu's voice, Shaluo opened the door and came in, then closed the door again.
Xie Fu asked: "Why are you so sneaky?"
"I came to see you secretly."
"What happened?"
"Something happened to the fifth princess."
Xie Fu was shocked and looked stern. Ever since he seized Yilan's divine veins, he had always regarded Yilan as his woman, even though he knew that their status had no final outcome.
He has long since realized that everything should not be perfect, but only love for each other.
Seeing that Xie Fu was calm and composed, Shaluo asked coldly: "Are you scared?"
If something happens to the queen, it is naturally a big deal. It is understandable for ordinary people to be afraid. Xie Fu said calmly: "How can you see that I am afraid?"
"Then why don't you speak?"
"I just couldn't react at the moment. Don't worry, Yilan's matter is my matter. If anything big happens, I will be able to handle it."
Xie Fu's words reassured Shaluo. In this Daguan Kingdom, they women had nothing to rely on. Now only Hushu Baowei can be trusted and relied on, but he said: "You may not be able to handle this matter."
Xie Fu smiled lightly: "I even dare to be a queen... Is there anything else I dare not do or bear?"
In the past, he was restrained by propriety, justice, shame, filial piety, loyalty, and trust. Now he feels that he is worthy of these eight characters, but he only seeks the next best thing, and is worthy of being worthy of friends and relatives in heaven and earth.
"Something happened to the queen, and you still laughed."
Xie Fu said calmly: "Sit down first."
Shaluo sat down and glared at him fiercely.
Xie Fu poured her a glass of wine: "What's the matter? Tell me."
Shaluo was not in the mood to drink and said directly: "The fifth princess has been imprisoned by the emperor."
Seeing that Shaluo didn't drink, Xie Fu took a sip and said, "Oh, what's the reason?"
"The fifth princess and the prince were caught and raped in bed by King Qi."
Xie Fu, who was very calm a moment ago, stood up suddenly when he heard these words, and the wine in the glass spilled on Shaluo's face: "Real or false!"
"Of course it's true, otherwise why would I come to you secretly?"
Xie Fu waved his hand and said: "It's impossible, Yi Lan is not this kind of person!"
Shaluo was confused: "What did you say?" Just after she finished speaking, she suddenly came to her senses and Shen Rong said angrily: "Of course the fifth princess is not this kind of person. If something happened to the two of them, it would have been your turn. How could it be your turn? We
A Beidi woman would rather die than humiliate her husband!"
Chen Qinglan, who was hiding in the dressing room, was secretly shocked when she heard this. Could Mr. Xie even be the queen? I originally thought that he was a cautious person who was cautious in his actions and words, but was afraid of getting into trouble. I didn't expect that his courage was as bold as the sky.
Xie Fu breathed a sigh of relief: "Then what you just said is true."
"What I mean is that it is true to say such a big thing. Many people among the civil and military ministers already know about it. Your Majesty has no way to protect the queen, so he has no choice but to imprison the queen."
From Shaluo's words, Xie Fu could already judge that it was impossible for Qin Chucheng to inherit the throne legitimately, unless he rebelled.
It is indeed a big event for the heir of a country to change hands.
Xie Fu said calmly: "So the prince and the fifth princess were framed?"
"I don't know if the prince was framed, but the fifth princess must have been framed."
"Zara, what you said seems a little confusing to me. Aren't we framed together?"
Shaluo snorted coldly: "I have long suspected that the prince has a secret desire for the fifth princess. As expected, he actually dares to have such ugly thoughts about his own mother. He is simply worse than a beast."
Xie Fu felt that Shaluo's words were a disguised insult to him. It was disrespectful for a minister to offend a king or a son to offend his mother, so he asked, "How do you say this?"
Shaluo said angrily: "If the prince didn't have any desire to covet his mother, how could he go to the dormitory where the fifth princess lives in the middle of the night?"
Xie Fu was shocked: "Then you let him in? Yilan let him in? And he was caught and raped in bed!"
