The maid standing beside Ye Cheng obediently opened the seal on the wine jar, and suddenly a strong aroma of wine filled the air. Ye Cheng closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and suddenly said: "Green Ant New Fermented Wine"
, a small red clay stove, it’s snowing in the evening, I can drink a glass of nothing; good wine, good wine!”
Xue Lian, who was about to reach out to play the piano, couldn't help but pause slightly. She couldn't help but glance sideways at Ye Cheng. She obviously didn't expect him to show off his literary talents, which was a bit unexpected.
Ye Cheng took the wine jar from the maid's hand with one hand, raised his head and drank it. The entrance was cool and elegant, and the mouth was even more fragrant. He praised: "Sure enough, the snowflake saliva is as crystal clear as snowflakes. Just smelling its taste can make you feel drunk."
It makes people salivate, it lives up to its name, it’s such a good wine!”
It took a long time for Feng Chen Wushuang to think about it. She didn't follow Ye Cheng's example. She just drank the fine wine in the cup and couldn't help but laugh: "It's been three months since I last drank this snowflake saliva, but I've been craving for it for a long time.
Well, I must have a good drink today!"
Ye Cheng glanced at the snow lotus from the corner of his eyes and asked aloud: "Girl, what do you want? If not, you can sing. As for what you want to sing, you can do whatever you want, even your best one!"
Xuelian was stunned for a while, thinking to herself whether this person was here to have fun or just drink. Why was she, the signature of Liuxiang Pavilion, so dismissive? She was secretly annoyed, but she didn't dare to do anything.
When he had a seizure, his face changed slightly, and he bent down to stroke the strings.
Suddenly, clouds and snow flew inside the lantern boat, and soft chirping sounds could be heard everywhere, like clear spring water, slowly flowing through everyone's hearts, making Ye Cheng feel refreshed. After the unhappiness of traveling for days, he felt much more comfortable. I don't know if it was the wine.
The reason is still related to the sound of the piano, maybe it is related to the mood.
After a long time, Xue Lian pressed the strings lightly and sighed slightly.
Ye Cheng drank heavily from the snowflake saliva. The music of the piano had stopped, but he was still intoxicated. However, the music brought back some of his memories. Pictures kept flashing in his mind, either happy, sad or sad.
Love, or hate.
"Papa pa pa"
A burst of crisp applause woke up Ye Cheng and Feng Chen Wushuang. They couldn't help but feel a little bored. They frowned slightly and asked in a deep voice: "Didn't I already charter this flower boat? How come someone can come up and ruin it for me?"
Xingzhi, is this the kind of business your Liuxiang Pavilion does?"
"Brother, please don't be angry. I'm here because of my reputation. How can I imagine that this Snow Lotus girl was caught first by my brother? I can only wait under the boat. When I heard the sound of the piano, I sighed with emotion and ruined my brother's elegance. It's a sin!"
Ye Cheng half-squinted his eyes and didn't answer. He just stared at Xuelian on the piano table. After all, they were the real masters here. Even if they wanted to vent their unhappiness, it was not appropriate for them to speak. Besides, since this could
With such a level of prosperity, Liuxiang Pavilion must have a strong backer.
Xue Lian was unhappy with his cold eyes. After all, she was open for business here and the guests were gossiping. This was not what they wanted to see. She said softly: "I don't know which guest, please go to another flower boat."
When traveling, we are all celebrities and elegant people, so of course we must act in a gentlemanly manner."
"Haha - it seems that I'm tired of annoying Miss Xuelian. Well, I'll leave now. Please forgive me, Brother Shouwang!"
Ye Cheng's eyes twitched, and he immediately understood that he had come prepared. He entered the town at night, and there was someone who knew his identity immediately. It seemed that he came with bad intentions, so he said softly: "Why don't you come up, since you like it?"
Let’s enjoy Miss Mu Xuelian’s piano skills together. I wonder if my friend is interested in it?”
"In that case, I would like to thank Brother Shouwang for your kindness. Miss Xuelian, let me do your special piece "Light Snow Falling into the Water", which will also make me enjoy it!"
While the man was speaking, he had already stepped to the gauze curtain outside the cabin. The whole process was light and silent. Even Ye Cheng didn't hear a trace of movement. However, with his amazing perception, he still vaguely grasped the man's body.
The trajectory of the action was that he changed his position three times in the air. If someone took the opportunity to make a sneak attack, it would definitely be a trick.
Ye Cheng looked at the man who rolled up the curtain and couldn't help but was stunned. He was such a handsome man. He wore a brown scholar's costume outside a white inner shirt, but his lapels were bound with gold and silver threads, and his hair was tied up in a hat.
Golden crown, eyes as bright as stars, red lips and white teeth, a vague smile on her face, if not for the Adam's apple on her neck, even he would have doubted whether this person was disguised as a man, with an ivory bone fan in her hand
, lightly beat and shake twice slowly, it will show the atmosphere of a romantic scribe.
"Brother, please take a seat, and let's enjoy Miss Xuelian's piano skills together!" Ye Cheng said slowly, while motioning to the maid beside him to get a soft couch and place it opposite him.
This handsome man walked over with light steps and a kind face, sat down casually, looked at Feng Chen Wushuang carefully for a while, and said with a slight smile: "Girl, why are you looking at me like this? I'm just listening to the music, and I'm not here to rob the house."
Yes, there’s no need to be so cold-hearted!”
Feng Chen Wushuang teased Jian Hui with her right hand. Although she and Ye Cheng came here to have fun and drink, she knew what her duty was. She couldn't let any cat or dog come to disturb Ye Cheng. Although he didn't need to protect his safety herself.
, but you should try your best to deal with annoying things yourself. This is the task Jiuqu Tianxing gave her.
Even a fool would know that the handsome man in front of her was prepared. As a horse thief, vigilance is the instinct of survival. Feng Chen Wushuang sat upright. If the other party made any rash move, she would be the first to do so.
Attack and give your opponent a thunderous blow.
Seeing that Feng Chen Wushuang ignored him, the man gave up. After pouring himself a drink, he smiled mysteriously and turned to the maid beside him and said: "Get over the screen and move away! Miss Xuelian can play now!"
Ye Cheng couldn't see through the person in front of him. After entering the realm of emptiness, he had already sensed the vague aura of his opponent. It was obvious that he had a superior mental technique, which made him feel that it was difficult to control him.
But the only thing that is certain is that this person has no murderous intentions towards him, and even has some good intentions, so he smiled and said: "Wushuang, I am also here to listen to the music, so there is no need to be so cold to him, but I haven't been able to ask my brother for advice yet.
Your surname!"
"My surname is Li and my name is Mu Zhuo. I am interrupting you today because I just want to make friends with Brother Shouwang!" The young handsome man picked up the wine glass and looked at Ye Cheng quietly.
Ye Cheng boldly grabbed the wine jar and touched Li Muzhuo gently, drank a large gulp of wine, and said with a smile: "Brother Li, I don't know where you come from, but looking at your outfit, you are also from China!"
Li Muzhuo nodded slightly and replied softly: "They are indeed from China. They heard that the desert has beautiful scenery, so they came to see it. What a pity -"
"Oh?" Ye Cheng smiled in his heart and started to get down to business. He laughed loudly and said: "The desert has infinite scenery. It's so fun to ride horses. I wonder what Brother Li is regretting? Is it because he doesn't have beautiful women and fine wines to accompany him?"
Li Muzhuo sighed softly: "Walking in the desert for more than twenty days, I encountered seven gangs of horse thieves. Countless businessmen were massacred, including no less than a hundred of my fellow citizens of the Tang Dynasty. All men, women, and children were killed. How pitiful God is!"
Ye Cheng glanced at Feng Chen Wushuang beside him and said calmly: "This kind of matter should be handled by the government. You can go to the Anxi Protectorate to have a look. Maybe they can send troops to help these businessmen!"
"Hmph -" Feng Chen Wushuang snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "The horse thieves killed a lot of people, but the gangs in Middle-earth also had no shortage of common people. I have been to Middle-earth before, and those people didn't do much to them.
Common people and businessmen are human beings!”
"What the girl said is absolutely true!" Li Muzhuo did not refute, drank a glass of wine and said: "But these Turks are killing all our people in the Tang Dynasty. Every year they come to the border and loot the towns. Massacres have happened before.
One is oppression by the same race, and the other is plunder by foreign races, which one do you think you will hate more?"
"Drinking——" Ye Cheng frowned and was not interested in the killings. He said in a deep voice: "This is Shule Kingdom. Talking about state affairs is the matter of the adults in the court. We are just Jianghu.
Rough people who are just trying to make a living, don’t understand state affairs!”
Li Muzhuo put down the wine glass in his hand and said softly: "When Brother Shouwang was in China, he often took on government tasks. It seems that the Iron Palm Gang also suffered losses because of you. In the battle of Tianmen, the Iron Palm Gang suffered heavy losses!"
"Bang--"
Ye Cheng put down the wine jar in his hand. At this moment, the sound of the piano was still there, the wind and snow were drifting outside the boat, and the heat from the heater inside the boat was scattered. It was warm just now, but suddenly the cold air blew, and even Feng Chen Wushuang couldn't help but shiver.
She was startled, and she was secretly shocked that the watchman had been seriously injured. Could it be that he had recovered from his injuries and could actually release such a murderous aura? It was really a Wuxu warrior with such a great reputation. This was the first time he was so close to him. Of course Fengchen Wushuang could.
Feeling Ye Cheng's terror, he didn't even dare to move his body, for fear that his actions would trigger Ye Cheng's terrifying murderous intent.
So was Li Muzhuo, who was sitting opposite Ye Cheng. The news he received was that Ye Cheng was seriously injured and could not take action in the near future. He did not expect to recover so quickly. Although he prided himself on his superb strength, he did not dare to act rashly at the moment, causing
Unnecessary trouble.
"Tell me your origins and your purpose?" Ye Cheng stared at Li Muzhuo and said coldly: "Give me a reason not to kill you. I hate it when others know everything about me and wantonly threaten me!
"
"Cough——" Li Muzhuo coughed lightly and glanced at Feng Chen Wushuang, as if it was inconvenient to speak.
"Don't worry, my people won't talk too much!" Ye Cheng certainly understood what he meant, but he said it very naturally.
Li Muzhuo nodded and said in a low voice: "I am Zuo Xiaowei under General Yuchi's tent. I came to see you today. I have received a letter from the general himself. Please read it!"
Ye Cheng's body trembled. Yu Chigong's eyes were indeed so wide. He had just arrived in Shule Town, and his buttocks were not even hot when someone came to him. It seemed that he "cares" about him very much, and he enjoyed all the treatment.
He was so tall and took the letter from Li Muzhuo without changing his expression.
"Player Watcher, do you accept Yu Chigong's commission: to steal secret messages from Qiuci and Shule?"
After Ye Cheng finished reading Yuchi Gong's letter, he immediately received the system prompt. He also roughly understood what Yuchi Gong meant. As long as he accepted this mission, he would join the imperial camp and immediately serve as a guard on the left and right, belonging to the Seventh Clan.
The official rank of a high-ranking official is not a small one. Compared with some players who can only start from soldiers, it is a step to the sky.
The snowflakes outside the boat have fallen to the lake, and the sweet music of the piano is still lingering in my ears. The temperature in the cabin has finally turned back, but Ye Cheng is still sitting quietly, holding the letter in his hand.
