Martial Arts: This world is different

Chapter 168 Sword Dance
Then someone brought a pipa, and one of the girls who accompanied the wine reached out to take it: "My pipa is not as good as Sister Yanyan's sword dance, and I have the right to help you guys!"

Just like that, the girl started to play for everyone. Lin Hu was a layman for pipa music, and he couldn't tell what the song was playing. He only felt that the rhythm was tense, and there was a faint chill, which made people feel as if they were in the middle of the scene. At the same time, Dong Yanyan began to wield her long sword. At first, her movements were very slow, and her posture was graceful and elegant, but as the music played, her rhythm became faster and faster. In the later stage, it was almost as fast as a martial arts practitioner. .

Lin Hu and the others are experts in this area. Seeing that Dong Yanyan's sword dance is not only beautiful, but also reveals a heroic force that is difficult for ordinary dancers to match. The expression on Dong Yanyan's face also changes with the sword dance, sometimes joyful, Sometimes sad, sometimes fierce, sometimes lonely.

At first everyone proposed to watch Dong Yanyan's sword dance just out of curiosity, but now they couldn't help but admire from the bottom of their hearts. After Dong Yanyan danced, there was a moment of silence in the room, and then Lin Hu and others cheered loudly.

At this time, the heroic and murderous aura on Dong Yanyan's body was swept away, and she regained her businesslike smile.

"It's such a small skill, it makes all the uncles laugh."

Xie Yuan said at the time: "Miss Yanyan is too modest. This dance theory will be held that day. How many times will we see it in the world? It should be rewarded generously. What do you think, Lao Lin?"

Lin Hu nodded quickly when he heard that: "That's natural, such a magical skill is really eye-opening."

After Lin Hu finished speaking, he took out two taels of silver from his pocket and put it on the table.

"One tael is a sword dance for Miss Yanyan, and the other two is a pipa song for that girl."

The second daughter immediately stood up and thanked Dong Yanyan when she heard this. At first, Lin Hu had some doubts about Dong Yanyan's origin, but at this time, the suspicion has disappeared. After all, the other party's sword dance is indeed a masterpiece. The pipas were all put away, and they continued to sit down to drink and chat with Lin Hu and the others. This time the atmosphere in the room was even more lively.

Dong Yanyan asked Lin Hu: "Haven't you asked this old man's name?"

"Let your surname be Lin."

"Shuangmulin?"

"good."

"So it's Uncle Lin, who knows where to get rich?"

"Business." Lin Hu didn't tell the truth. This was discussed before the four of them arrived. After all, Jin Yiwei's visit to the brothel is not a glorious thing after all, so they only said to the outside world that they were businessmen.

Dong Yanyan didn't seem suspicious at the time, and continued drinking and chatting with Lin Hu. Lin Hu found that Dong Yanyan was different from ordinary brothel girls. Speaking of Dong Yanyan's background, the latter's face couldn't help showing a little sadness.

"They are already degraded people, so it's okay not to talk about some things."

At this time, the girl who was with Li Qi heard it, and immediately replied: "Sister Yanyan's background is different from ours, she is a decent official queen."

Lin Hu and the others were taken aback when they heard this, and turned to look at Dong Yanyan, who smiled wryly.

"Actually speaking, it's a bit humiliating to the ancestors. My father once served as the head of the Ministry of War, but unfortunately he was later labeled as a member of Jianwen's party."

Dong Yanyan did not continue, but Lin Hu and others also understood what was going on. After Zhu Di came to power, in order to prove the legitimacy of his regime, he persecuted court officials loyal to Emperor Jianwen, and not only these officials themselves, but also Their family members were not spared either. Even if they survived by luck, they were either exiled into the army, or served as slaves and prostitutes in the court church. The end is quite miserable. Although political struggles are often cruel, Zhu Di’s move is still too cruel. Therefore, it also attracted great criticism from later generations.

Of course, it was still the Yongle Dynasty at this time, and Lin Hu and the others were officials, so it was inconvenient to say many things clearly, so they were vague at the time, and Dong Yanyan and the others did not become suspicious, after all, under the circumstances at that time, ordinary people did not dare to speak casually Talk about this kind of thing, but because of this, everyone has a little more sympathy for Dong Yanyan's life experience.

Just when everyone was blushing from drinking, they suddenly heard a commotion outside, as if someone was causing trouble. Everyone was curious and went to the door to pick up the curtain to watch, but it didn't matter. Li Qi was like a mouse seeing a cat. He was so frightened that he wanted to jump out of the window and leave, but Lin Hu and others hurriedly pulled him back.

"Old Li, you're damned, this is the second floor, how can you jump around?"

Li Qi couldn't help but said anxiously at this moment: "It's more troublesome than seeing a ghost, our family Murong is here!"

Lin Hu and the others were shocked when they heard that Li Qi was famous in Jinyiwei, and everyone knew that his daughter-in-law, Murong Qiong, was not easy-going. She was also a famous chivalrous woman before she got married. , She was in trouble for finding something. At that time, everyone discussed and decided to divide the army into two groups. Xie Yuan and Lin Hu went to hold Murong Qiong to buy time, while Ding Li tried to help Li Qi escape.

At that time, Xie Yuan and Lin Hu hurried out of the house and went downstairs. At this time, Murong Qiong and the people from Yanchun Building were almost about to attack. Seeing this, Lin Hu hurried forward and said, "Sister and sister, why are you here?"

When Murong Qiong saw that it was Lin Hu and Xie Yuan, he was even more angry at that time: "You guys are indeed here, where is our old Li?"

"He's not here."

"Nonsense, obviously someone saw you guys coming in, I'll find out after a search." Murong Qiong wanted to rush in when she heard that she was leading the servants and servants, Xie Yuan quickly reached out to stop them.

"Sister and sister, don't be foolish. This is where people do business. You are not officials, so how can you search casually? Besides, your old Li is indeed not here. Could it be that your people misread it?"

"Whether I'm here or not, I'll know when I search, and besides, what kind of business is this place? I feel dirty just here, Lao Lin, thank you both, get out of the way quickly, or don't blame me for not thinking of love!?"

Lin and Xie knew that Murong Qiong could do what he said, and they estimated that Li Qi should have slipped away by now, so they let Murong Qiong go upstairs to search, and at the same time greeted Yanchunlou, because similar Things like this usually happen, so Yanchun upstairs and downstairs are used to it, but they can't help muttering a few words.

It is said that Murong Qiong led the servants to search on the second floor for a while, and finally came to the room where Lin Hu and the others were. When he saw Ding Lizheng sitting in it, he pretended to be surprised when he saw Murong Qiong and others coming in.

"Brother and sister, why are you here?"

Murong Qiong ignored Ding Li, but glanced around the room for a while, but did not find Li Qi, nor saw any flaws, at this time Lin Hu and Xie Yuan also rushed over.

"Sister and brother, it's just the three of us. How can there be your old Li? He is famously afraid of you, so he dare not come here to play with his courage. Your people must have misread it."
