After buying some things on the street, Lu Heng rode a horse, put the large and small parcels on the horse's back, and headed towards his new home in the green twilight.
The dusk was green, and lanterns were hung on both sides of the streets paved with bluestones. The streets of Luoyang were dimly lit.
The wind picked up, and the flag hanging outside the wine shop and teahouse swayed gently in the wind.
At this time, there were a lot fewer pedestrians on the street. Occasionally, there were urchins playing and playing in the street, but they were also pulled back home by their ears by the fugitives in coarse linen clothes.
On the horizon, the sun sets. There is only a faint red ray, embedded on the top of the Baiyun Mountain in the distance.
In the blue night sky, a few stars that had just risen were shining quietly.
In the dusk, the stone road leading to home, under the dim lights on both sides, is warm and peaceful.
After walking for a while, I turned around the street and walked into the alley where my home was.
At dusk, at the vermilion gate in front, an old lantern moved with the wind. The dim light flickered on and off, but never went out.
On the steps in front of the door, a big man stood there, walking back and forth with his hands behind his back. He stopped from time to time and looked here. When he saw no one, he shook his head and sighed, and continued to pace with his head lowered.
A faint sound of horse hooves sounded at the entrance of the alley.
Stepping on the bluestone, Dada is crisp and bright.
The big man at the door suddenly tensed up when he heard the sound. He turned his head and looked at the scholar who was walking slowly leading the horse under the dusk.
The big man's eyes were full of joy, he wiped his hands on his clothes excitedly, and ran over in big strides.
He took the horse rein from the scholar's hand smoothly, his eyes full of excitement. He looked at the scholar and said, "Master, you are back!"
Agui, who had not seen me for a long time, became much calmer.
Thinking of the calf-like Agui he met in Luzhou, and then looking at the swordsman who is now famous in Kyoto, Lu Heng couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it felt like he was in another world.
"Ha, I'm back!" Lu Heng nodded, patted Agui on the shoulder and said. He raised his head and looked at the powerful golden plaque on the door. In the dim light, the two words "LV Fu" were written.
Ye Ye shines brightly.
"Good words!" Lu Heng rubbed his chin and praised.
Beside him, Agui nodded in agreement. Then he whispered to Lu Heng: "I heard from Her Majesty the Princess that this was signed by Your Majesty himself!"
Lu Heng was not too surprised after hearing this.
After all, in the lower right corner of the plaque, the four small characters "Mr. 95" are very clear.
Mr. Jiuwu, the lord of Jiuwu. Who else but the emperor would dare to use the title of Jiuwu.
Pushing the door open, the two of them entered the mansion while talking. The mansion was very large and was built in a very stylish way. Unlike the regular gardens in the north, Lu Heng's mansion could feel a strong atmosphere as soon as he entered the door.
The atmosphere of Jiangnan water town.
After entering the gate, what came into view was a large raindrop stone. On the stone, there was a line of very sad poetry written on it.
The general meaning of the poem is that Mr. Jiuwu accidentally visited this place and saw the lush forests and bamboos here and the picturesque scenery. He sighed and wrote down his admiration for the garden and his fairy-like mood.
The whole poem uses the calligraphy of Chu Ci. There are so many things in it that make Lu Heng feel dizzy.
At the place where the signature was signed, it was still Mr. 95.
The book said: Mr. Jiuwu came here for a visit.
This was the second time within a minute that Lu Heng saw Mr. 95's withdrawal. Especially when he saw Mr. 95's inscription as a souvenir of his visit. Lu Heng couldn't help but feel dumbfounded for a moment.
It turns out that the original author of this sentence was actually the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty!
Is it possible that Your Majesty, this avid calligraphy enthusiast, wants to turn my entire home into a place for him to practice calligraphy?
After passing this large set of rainstones, what comes into view is a lush forest of lush bamboos. In the forest, cobblestone paths wind and twist, leading to a quiet place.
In the forest, there is a small pavilion, flowing water, and streams gurgling like a woman's whisper.
And on both sides of the forest path, dozens of meters away, were hanging lanterns with stars.
These countless lanterns stretch from behind the rainstone to the main room at the top of the path ahead.
At the end of the bamboo forest, two graceful women, one green and one red, were busy hanging lanterns on the bamboo.
The two women, laughing and laughing with unconcealed excitement and excitement, were hanging lanterns and talking at the same time.
"Father said that Lu Heng will be back tonight! But what time is it now, why can't he be seen yet!"
"My husband must have something to do, that's why I'm delayed!"
"Sister, you will protect him! How boring!"
Princess Ankang curled her lips and said sourly. She rolled her eyes, and there was a flash of cunning in her eyes. She snickered and said: "How about tonight, sister, close the door and don't let her enter the house.
, how about freezing him overnight?"
Liu Qingqing turned her head and looked at Princess Ankang, who had an enlightened look on her face. Under the dim light, the woman's beautiful cheeks looked like a fairy.
"Sister, what are you looking at!" Princess Ankang felt a little guilty, dodging her eyes and asked Liu Qingqing hesitantly.
Liu Qingqing looked at her with smiling eyes for a while, smiled slightly, turned away, and continued to hang the lantern.
"Last night, I heard you, sister, talking in your sleep!"
Liu Qingqing paused slightly in her movements, turned her head, and teased Princess Ankang with a mysterious smile on her lips.
"I, what did I say?"
Princess Ankang asked in a low voice with a voice as loud as a mosquito.
Liu Qingqing's pretty face had a hint of blush, she hesitated for a moment, suppressed a smile, looked at Princess Ankang who looked suspicious, and then deliberately said in the tone of Princess Ankang: "What are you looking at? It's not my fault that my chest is big.
If you look again, I’ll dig out your eyeballs!”
After finishing speaking, Liu Qingqing glanced at Princess Ankang, nodded and murmured in a low voice: "These words sound so familiar! It seems like I have heard it somewhere before!"
When Princess Ankang heard this, her pretty face instantly turned red as fire, she lowered her head and stammered: "No, no, no..."
Flustered, Princess Ankang began to look around.
Suddenly, in front of the forest, in the dim light, a figure stood there steadily, looking at this place.
The bamboo forest was swaying in the breeze. The lanterns hanging on the branches were also fluttering in the wind. The dim lights were swaying, like a sea of stars, undulating slightly in the night.
Under the light, the scholar's smile is still as warm as ever.
"He, he, he..." Princess Ankang was both surprised and panicked.
For a moment, I stuttered and couldn't say a whole sentence.
He reached out and grabbed Liu Qingqing's long skirt beside him, thinking it was a reminder. However, when he turned his head, he found that Liu Qingqing beside him had tears streaming down his face.
The woman's beautiful eyes were filled with tears, and there was a sweet smile on her lips. She looked at the scholar in front of him under the light and sniffed.
"My lord!"
The woman stood there fixedly, looking at the man with tearful eyes, pursed her lips, and smiled sweetly.
…
The room was brightly lit.
The table was already filled with delicacies, but the two women were still busy.
"Okay. Okay, that's enough, enough to eat!" As soon as Lu Heng entered the door, he was pinned down on the chair by two women, and they asked him fiercely not to move.
Now, I watched the two women walking in and out of the kitchen like butterflies in flowers.
Lu Heng was moved and said with a smile.
"Wait a minute, there will be another plate of braised fish!"
At the door, Liu Qingqing stuck out her palm-sized face and said with a smile.
After that, before Lu Heng could say anything, the woman disappeared.
Not long after, a fragrant smell of braised fish floated into the room. Just smelling this smell made Lu Heng's index fingers twitch and his mouth water.
The door opened with a creak, and two women walked in, carrying plates and laughing.
After taking a look, the plate in Princess Ankang's hand contained a braised fish with a full color and aroma.
Liu Qingqing, on the other hand, was holding a bowl of lotus seed porridge, looking at the rosy-cheeked Princess Ankang beside her with a smile on her face, and then turned around to look at Lu Heng, who was a little surprised.
"Does it smell good?"
Liu Qingqing put down the lotus seed porridge and asked with a smile.
"Well, well, your highness is very good at your craftsmanship!" Lu Heng nodded quickly and praised.
After saying "Your Highness," Princess Ankang's face darkened a lot. She lowered her head, put down the plate of braised fish, wiped her hands on her apron, chewed her lips, turned her head, and took a look at the sky outside.
"It's getting late, I should go back!"
Princess Ankang said in a faint tone, glanced at Liu Qingqing, took off her apron, and turned to leave.
Liu Qingqing couldn't help but chuckle in her heart when she saw Princess Ankang looking so charming.
He turned around and was holding his chopsticks, ready to eat the fish. He suddenly felt angry and insensitive.
Under the table, he stretched out his little foot and kicked him.
Only then did Lu Heng stop what he was doing, put down his chopsticks, raised his head, and looked at Ankang with a sad face. He smiled, stood up, and walked to Princess Ankang.
"You..., what are you doing?" Princess Ankang forced herself to calm down, raised her head, and looked at Lu Heng fiercely.
At this time, Princess Ankang could clearly feel the scholar's breathing. For a moment, the two of them were so close, and Princess Ankang felt both fear and uneasiness, but also deep expectation.
Her heart was extremely panicked, but her hands felt warm. She lowered her head and took a look, and Princess Ankang suddenly blushed.
Lu Heng took her hand and pulled her to the chair. Then, he personally moved the chair, pressed her shoulders with both hands, and pressed her down on the chair.
Not a word was said, just a faint smile.
The scene that lingered in her dream was now before her eyes. Princess Ankang was filled with joy and excitement. Unknowingly, she lowered her head and shed tears.
"Eat, eat!"
Princess Ankang lowered her head to wipe her tears. Beside her, Liu Qingqing's beautiful eyes looked at her with a smile.
Lu Heng coughed and pretended not to know anything. Then he stretched out his chopsticks, picked up the fish head, and said carelessly: "Eat, eat!"!
