Three days later, Zheng Xie and Shi Qingxuan came to Dongping County.
Dongping County was still the power of the Sui Army at this time. Although anyone with a discerning eye could see that the Sui Dynasty was not far from collapse, if Yang Guang was still in power for one day, the old Sui Army troops would not easily turn back.
During the feudal period, the ancients were still very conservative and had a natural sense of alienation towards "rebels".
So after Yang Guang's death, the rebel armies in various places proclaimed themselves kings and emperors one after another.
Although the news that Wang Tong's birthday banquet will invite Shi Qingxuan and others to perform has not spread widely, everyone who should know knows it, but everyone has something to do and may not be able to come to support it. For example, some leaders of the rebel army will never
He would go into danger alone and lose his life just to listen to a performance.
Despite this, Wang Tong's banquet was still crowded with guests.
Wang Tong is a contemporary great Confucian. He is unparalleled in the world in terms of his academic training. In terms of martial arts, he can also be ranked among the top few of the first-class masters. He has a peculiar nature. After becoming famous at the age of thirty, he never
He fought with others. He abandoned martial arts and followed literature. He did not teach martial arts to others, but only gathered his disciples to give lectures. He also wrote a lot of books.
In history, the most famous one is Wang Tong's grandson Wang Bo. He, Yang Jiong, Lu Zhaolin, and Luo Bin are collectively known as the Four Heroes of the Early Tang Dynasty. He is a man of outstanding poetic talent. He is famous for his famous saying: "Knowing a friend in the sea is as close as the end of the world."
Through the ages, the representative work is "Preface to Prince Teng's Pavilion".
Several important guests also came to the banquet, such as Wang Shichong, the minister of the dynasty, and Ouyang Xiyi, the "Huangshan Yimin". These two were no worse than Wang Tong in terms of identity or status. In addition, many people also gathered
An outstanding master who is famous in the world.
The birthday banquet had already started in the evening, there was an endless stream of guests, and the courtyard was full of people.
On the roof of Wangtong's mansion, a young man and woman suddenly appeared. There were many famous masters among the guests in the mansion, especially Wang Tong, Ouyang Xiyi and Wang Shichong who were sitting at the top. They were all top masters in the world.
.But no one could spot the two people lurking on the roof.
Zheng Xie watched on the roof for a while, then turned to send a message to Shi Qingxuan beside him. His lips were parted, but no sound came out: "Don't you people who are interested in art like to put on airs and don't show up easily?
He appears to be enigmatic. He arouses the curiosity of others and makes people more sought after. Even if he has to go out to meet guests, he will show his face briefly and then leave in a hurry, lest he gets infected by spending too much time with ordinary people like us who don’t understand art.
Tacky.”
Shi Qingxuan was completely out of breath. She almost pulled out the jade Xiao and fought with him for dozens of rounds. She said angrily: "Is this the kind of person Qingxuan is in your eyes? I just don't like to socialize with others and I'm too lazy to say some duplicitous words."
Zheng She said: "You just look down on us and think that you are different and superior to others. There are so many people waiting for you below. You still put on airs and refuse to show up. You are just playing tricks. What are your intentions?"
Shi Qingxuan bit her silver teeth lightly and said bitterly: "If you deliberately say these irritating words again, Qingxuan will return to Youlin Xiaozhu, and I will never hear that song of yours again."
Zheng Xie hurriedly begged for mercy and said: "Qingxuan, you are a large number of people, please don't be as knowledgeable as me. But today's song is not counted. We have agreed that you will play for me alone."
Shi Qingxuan snorted and said, "Qingxuan is very angry now. Let's talk about it after I calm down."
Zheng Xie knew that it was not appropriate to continue arguing with her at this time, so he changed the subject and said, "Has Qingxuan seen those two boys?"
Shi Qingxuan glanced down and said, "What is so special about these two boys that deserves special mention from Brother Zheng?"
Zheng Xie said: "The Taoist treasure of longevity is in these two people. Judging from their spiritual vigor, they may have already practiced the martial arts in the longevity formula."
"There really are such geniuses in the world." Shi Qingxuan looked deeply at the two of them.
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were walking among the guests when they suddenly felt like they were being spied on and looked up towards the roof.
Shi Qingxuan sensed it first, and stepped back before them, saying: "The Secret of Immortality is indeed extraordinary. Their martial arts are only between first and second rate, but their spiritual awareness is superhuman."
Zheng Xie nodded and said with a smile: "It's a good show."
Gao Zhong and Xu Ziling had been discovered by Shan Wanjing, the little princess of the Dongming faction, and they were chased fiercely. The two fled in a panic, making a lot of noise, but they bumped into Shen Naitang and Shen Wushuang. In the end, they
However, Wang Tong, who was the head of the family, discovered him and summoned him.
At this time, there was a loud noise outside the palace gate, and several palace guards were thrown into the courtyard.
The guests dispersed in a hurry.
A young man and woman walked in with their heads held high.
Zheng Xie whispered: "This person is Ba Fenghan, an outstanding master of the younger generation of Turks. His martial arts has reached a first-class level and is still growing rapidly. Even if he is still not as good as Li Mi, Du Fuwei and the like, but with
It won't take long for him to surpass them. Next to him is Fu Junyu, the master of Yijian Master Fu Cailin. He has practiced the Nine Mysteries to the seventh level and his swordsmanship is extraordinary."
While he was talking, Ba Fenghan had already come and started to incite hatred, which led to Ouyang Xiyi's death and started a life-and-death fight.
Ouyang Xiyi saw Ba Fenghan's ruthless character, tenacity, and outstanding talent. He was afraid that one day he would grow into a great master like Bi Xuan, and wanted to kill this young seedling before he could rise.
However, Ba Fenghan wanted to fight to support fighting, challenge the world's masters, and seek a breakthrough between life and death.
The two of them showed their ability to press the bottom of the box as soon as they made a move. Their moves were fatal, and life or death was a matter of a moment.
"Today is Mr. Wang's birthday party, why bother beating you to death?"
Shi Qingxuan sighed softly, took out the jade flute, put it under her red lips and played it gently.
The flute sounded.
In an instant, everything fell silent. The two men who were fighting for life and death also stopped their hands at the same time. All the noise in the courtyard was silenced by the sound of the flute.
Zheng She also closed his eyes and listened quietly. The sound of the flute was sometimes high and generous, sometimes resentful and low, reaching infinite high and low. He was fascinated by it for a moment.
Countless people seemed to be possessed, standing quietly in the courtyard, their moods fluctuating with the sound of the flute, as if they had entered another mysterious and lonely world, and everyone's hidden pain, joy, and unbearable sadness were all swept away.
Hooked up.
The flute played again, and a kind of extremely restrained enthusiasm bloomed through the bright and well-proportioned notes, as if gently telling everyone's inner story.
I don't know when Shi Qingxuan had taken off the jade flute, but the lingering sound still lingered in everyone's hearts.
No one in the hall could speak.
Zheng Xie opened his eyes and whispered: "I am looking forward more and more to the song that Qingxuan wants me to be the soloist for."
Shi Qingxuan's mood was also in a mysterious state, and she said softly: "Brother Zheng, let's go."
There was an explosion in the hall immediately, and the crowd was in a frenzy of appeals to persuade him to stay.
Ba Fenghan also said: "If I can see Miss's beauty, I, Ba Fenghan, will die without regrets."
Shi Qingxuan said: "It's as if we haven't seen each other since we met. Qingxuan came to play a song for the two of us on the order of my mother. Now that this matter is over, Qingxuan will go."
Zheng Xie felt very proud and said with a smile: "Seeing them, I realized how lucky I was to be able to swim the Yangtze River with Qingxuan."
