Chapter 55 The Bamboo Picker
The man was about twenty years old, and his figure was more burly than King Yong. He was dressed in brocade clothes and his face was not angry. He stepped on a guard to carry the carriage. King Yong brought Ye Ningyu to the man. As the host, King Yong was naturally well-behaved. He bowed to the man and smiled, "Third Prince."
The third prince of Liang nodded slightly. When his eyes fell on Ye Ningyu, his eyebrows moved, as if there was a certain luster in his eyes. "This is..." Ye Ningyu also nodded slightly, and looked at this person inadvertently, which basically overlapped with the memories of the previous life. King Yong walked forward and blocked the third prince of Liang's gaze, "She is the eldest daughter of the Duke of Guarding the Kingdom, and also the unmarried princess of this king."
The third prince of Liang's gaze dimmed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his tone was obviously disappointed. "Oh... it turned out to be the future Princess Yong."
Then, he looked around and his eyes fell on Qing Lian behind Ye Ningyu. Qing Lian lowered his head, but the third prince still saw her thin face and felt bored. King Yong pointed to a pleasure boat parked by the lake, "Please, the third prince."
The third prince of Liang State said nothing more, turned to the pleasure boat, and King Yong and Ye Ningyu followed him. The maids also held the things in their hands and got on the pleasure boat. The boat was two floors, full of mahogany, with wall railings around the first floor, and the main and guest seats and items were all prepared, which could accommodate about a hundred people. The second floor was an open unobstructed space, with a light yellow roof on the top and a single eaves of four corners. The three of them sat in the pleasure boat, and saw the third prince's followers began to play with the things they brought, including tea sets, tables, chairs, and various snacks used by the third prince of Liang State, and even brought in an incense burner. The king of Yong was not the first day to receive the third prince, and he was used to his behavior.
Then they let them do it. The third prince of Liang State sat in front of the host and guest, and their maids and entourages had already boarded the boat. Ten trained boatmen were driving the boat, and a huge boat slowly sailed off the shore. While tasting wine and smelling fragrance, a musician sat in the middle of the seat. He plucked the strings of the piano lightly, and the sound of the guqin was intertwined with the faint sound of flowing water. Everyone felt a sense of coolness and calmness. But the third prince of Liang State did not fluctuate too much, as if everything in front of him was not very attractive to him. After the song, he leaned lazily on the cushion he carried with him, squinted at King Yong. "Is this the unforgettable journey that His Highness Yong said?"
At this time, the boat had reached the middle of the water. King Yong smiled faintly and looked at the distance. Suddenly, a faint singing voice came. The sound gradually became clear from far to near. "If someone is in the mountain, she is surrounded by a lying lying and smiling. I admire me and be kind and graceful..." He heard that the voice was a woman, and the singing and the sound of water were harmonious, and the river flowed in a swaying manner, pleasing to the eyes. The third prince narrowed his eyebrows even more, and he subconsciously leaned forward.
, want to follow the sound and look for something. Ye Ningyu glanced at the third prince's expression quietly, and then looked at not far away. On the surface of the lake, among the faint smoke, the first thing that caught his eye was a green bamboo about three meters long and thick with his arms. The green bamboo floated on the water and slowly penetrated the smoke. Then, everyone saw the woman on the green bamboo. She was wearing green clothes, graceful body, with a veil on her face, and black silk quilts quilted in the wind
Blowing up, her feet steadily stepped on the green bamboo. The woman held a slightly thin bamboo horizontally in her hand, forming the word "Ten" with the bamboo under her feet. The singing voice was getting closer and closer, so that the gentle sighs in the song could be heard clearly. She was singing and dancing on Duzhu. With her feet snatched, the bamboo under her feet slowly turned with her rotating body, and the calm water surface suddenly appeared round ripples. The third prince nodded again. He opened his eyes and looked at the beauty singing on the bamboo. Suddenly, he felt that every hair on his body stood up, and the Ren and Du meridians were unblocked. "This...this...this..." The third prince was a little incoherent. Ye Ningyu nodded slightly to him, "This is the bamboo picking girl from Yu Country, which can be seen often in the Bixin Lake area. Today is also considered destined. If the third prince does not dislike her, we will ask her to get on the boat and talk."
The third prince didn't dislike him. He looked at him so quickly that he didn't care about speaking at this moment, so he waved his hand, which meant to invite people up quickly! Ye Ningyu ordered to the person on the bow of the boat, "Please get on the boat."
The bamboo picker inserted the bamboo pole lying horizontally into the water, and the green bamboo under her feet stopped in front of the pleasure boat. She did not get on the boat immediately, and spoke happily, "Do you dare to ask where the guests came from?"
Ye Ningyu smiled at the corner of his lips, and she looked at the third prince. The third prince seemed to feel Ye Ningyu's intention, stood up and walked towards the bow of the ship. "I..." Before the word Wang was finished, he changed his topic. "Since Liang State came, I heard that Yu State has beautiful mountains and rivers, I will come to appreciate it."
The woman seemed very satisfied with this answer. She threw away the bamboo pole in her hand and gently tapped her toes again. The green bamboo under her feet instantly stood up from the water. Just now, the green bamboo floated on the water surface, and everyone did not see clearly. It was not until then that she saw that there were several bamboo tubes hanging on the green bamboo. The woman flew up and took down a bamboo tube in the air. Then she jumped lightly and came towards the pleasure boat. In the blink of an eye, she landed steadily in front of the third prince. She took off her veil, revealing her beautiful facial features, and smiled at the corner of her mouth. "The enemy has a long sword when she comes, and the guests have a good wine when they come. The little woman Ruoyue is the treasured guests who come from afar with the bamboo wine they brewed by her family!"
The woman's voice was clear but not pretentious. Her every move was a bit of a heroic spirit of a gangster. The third prince could not take his eyes off her. He couldn't believe that there was such a wonderful person in Yu State! She was different from the squeamish rich girl in the boudoir courtyard, nor was she awesome in the red building. She was like a green bamboo with white flowers, transcendent and straight into the sky, making men all over the world look up. The third prince had a thought without thinking, and he had to get this woman! The third prince sat down, Ruoyue poured a glass of wine for him first, and then poured a glass for King Yong and Ye Ningyu each. There was no favoritism in etiquette, and Ruoyue drank it all over the bamboo tube. Ye Ningyu did not drink it, and King Yong silently took her cup. "If you are hurt, I'll drink it for you."
The third prince was very excited. He looked at Ruoyue's every move and liked him more and more. He knew that this girl was not met today, otherwise King Yong would not have been busy with the lake. Whether he made an intention to make arrangements or he really had a fate with this girl, he accepted this girl with a smile! "I think the girl should not be called Ruoyue, she should be called 'Shengyue'."
Ye Ningyu and King Yong looked at each other, and they were silent. After thirty or three hundred, Ruoyue's several bamboo wines were gone. The third prince was a little dazed and lay on the soft couch and fell asleep gradually. I don't know how long it took, but when he woke up, the sky was a little dark, and there were no figures of King Yong and Ye Ningyu in the pleasure boat.
