"Clang, clank, clang-" Suddenly there was the sound of cracking stones, and the oiran party was about to begin.
The many flower boats cruising in the Changle Pond all turned off their headlights, leaving only a few candles, wandering around the big boats in circles.
Looking from a distance, it looks like the stage is falling into the stars.
A dozen beautiful women of the right age, each holding a string of silk and bamboo instruments, took their seats on the stage in the center of the boat.
The clouds are decorated with flowers, the feathers are fluttering, and the sound of music is ringing, like an audio-visual feast.
The originally noisy Changle Pond suddenly became quiet. Not only the restaurants, but also the people watching the fun and selling snacks by the lake also fell silent. Only the sound of music echoed in the night wind.
It wasn't until the song ended that warm cheers erupted from everywhere.
Those flower boats lit up their headlights again and sailed towards the shore.
As the flower boat approached, everyone threw gold, silver, purses, melons, fruits and other items onto the boat. Some people threw incorrectly, and those who were fishing for money jumped into the water.
After two sips of wine, Mingwei felt a little stuffy. She stood by the window to enjoy the breeze. She didn't want to hear someone talking next door: "Young Master Yang didn't seem to reward you just now? This is strange. Who in the whole capital doesn't know you?"
You are the vanguard in the Fengliu Formation, how come you changed your gender after following Jiang Wenfeng for a trip?"
Then came Yang Shu's voice, half-truthfully, half-falsely, he replied: "I was taught a lesson by the Holy One before, saying that I made a lot of trouble, and if I continue like this, I won't be able to get a wife. In order not to be a bachelor, I have to restrain myself."
?”
Hearing what he said, everyone laughed out loud, but then the prince said: "That's right. It's okay to go out to relax occasionally, but don't be addicted."
Yang Shu replied with a smile: "That's what His Highness said."
Mingwei didn't expect such a coincidence that he was also next door. Thinking that he hadn't seen him for a long time, he told Wei Xiaoan and left the box.
She stopped a food delivery boy and handed over the whistle: "Please give this to a young man named Yang, and tell him that someone is waiting for him outside."
The waiter glanced at her face, envious, and said, "Miss, wait a minute."
Not long after, roars of laughter rang out in the box, and Yang Shu came out.
Seeing Mingwei, he walked sideways upstairs: "Follow me."
Mingwei followed him up to the second floor, only to find that no guests were welcome here, and there were even people guarding the place.
"Is this the property of the Imperial City Division?" She thought of the restaurant in Dongning.
"Yeah." Yang Shu led her into a room with the same layout as the box below, but without the fancy decorations.
He opened the window and the night wind brought in the moisture from the lake.
"Why are you here?" He handed the whistle back.
Mingwei put away his whistle and said, "I happened to be hanging out with some classmates, right next door to you."
"..." Yang Shu said, "I thought you were in a hurry."
"If there is an emergency, it will be the secret guard who comes to see you, not myself." How did she know his whereabouts?
"If nothing happens, even if we encounter you, you won't call me out specifically. You should still have something to say, right?"
Mingwei looked at him.
"What?" Yang Shu was confused.
"I should ask you this. You haven't come to see me once since I entered school."
Yang Shu felt even more uncomfortable and pretended to be nonchalant: "Why should I go to find you? Who are you to me?"
Mingwei originally just asked casually, but she didn't expect his reaction to be so big. She frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly smiled: "Don't you think..."
Yang Shu quickly cut off her words: "If you have something to say, say it quickly. I have to go back. If we are seen together, you will lose your reputation."
This is a guilty conscience!
Mingwei felt a little strange, and looked at him until his face turned red, and then said: "I received the things you asked for. The effect is good. My skills have improved greatly these days. Even if I am attacked,
It’s not like I have no power to fight back.”
Yang Shu nodded with a straight face: "Finished? Then I'll go back."
"Why!"
As soon as he tugged on his sleeve, he was quickly thrown away.
Mingwei became more and more sure that something was really wrong with him.
Isn't it really what she guessed?
"Why are you in such a hurry? I still want to ask you something."
"What's up?"
Mingwei originally had many things to ask.
First, when she came to the capital, she naturally wanted to ask about Xuandu Temple. According to the original historical trend, Xuandu Temple played a very important role in it. According to her original plan, she should start with Xuandu Temple.
of.
Secondly, it is naturally the prince's business. In her time, many historical materials were lost. She needs to start to understand what this prince is like from the people around her.
I was thinking about where to start when I suddenly heard a scream, followed by a "plop" sound of falling into the water.
The two people turned around and saw that on the boat in the middle of the lake, the singers and dancers were running around in a panic, and some people were shouting: "Water monster, there is a water monster!"
As soon as they finished speaking, they saw with their own eyes a shadow rising from the water, quickly grabbing a female performer who had no time to run, and jumped back into the water.
Mingwei's expression changed: "Evil thing!"
She quickly pulled out a handkerchief and covered her head and face, but someone was already flying out of the window downstairs.
Her big sleeves are fluttering, and her body is like flowing clouds.
Mingwei recognized his identity without looking at his face.
Ning Xiu!
"Is that an evil thing?" Yang Shu asked her.
Mingwei nodded: "There's still time to save people."
After saying this, she held on to the window and jumped, using her strength to rush towards the central boat.
Yang Shu naturally followed closely behind.
In the private room downstairs, Ji Xiaowu was startled when he heard the water monster shouting. He leaned to the window to take a look. Seeing the shadow flying in the water with his own eyes, he hurriedly shouted: "How blessed! How blessed!"
He didn't need to shout, Duofu had already come over. Her expression suddenly changed: "Yaoxie!"
"Is it really an evil spirit? What should we do? We can't just ignore it, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, an exclamation sounded in his ears.
They looked over and saw several people jumping out from the restaurant and the shore, using Qinggong to rush towards the boat.
With sharp eyes, Ji Xiaowu noticed a very familiar figure. Just as he was about to open his mouth, Duofu had already pulled him and whispered: "That's Miss, don't shout!"
Ji Xiaowu was stupid.
Duofu thought he couldn't figure out the situation, so he said, "Let's go borrow a boat so we can pick up the lady."
Ji Xiaowu followed her out of the restaurant and hurried to the boat rental office to talk to the boat owner.
It wasn't until he got on the boat that he remembered what to say: "Duofu, why don't you fly over?"
Duofu replied while rocking the oar: "I just started learning, but I'm not good at martial arts."
Ji Xiaowu looked at the boat and asked with difficulty: "You can't fly, so how can your cousin fly?"
Duofu looked at him strangely: "Of course Miss can do it!" After thinking about it, she took out something and gave it to him, "This dagger was enchanted by Miss. If you really encounter a water monster, remember to use it for self-defense."
Ji Xiaowu was a little confused. Duofu can't fly, but his cousin can fly. This seems to be different from what he imagined!
