But the bright moon shines on the ditch

Chapter 25

This is a four-horse Tianzi pot. The colors of the horses are divided into two types: two green, one red and one yellow. The coloring is clear and bright.The four horses gallop between the floating clouds in the sea, and the splash of water makes the hair of the four horses look silky and lifelike.

The cover of the jar is made of tumbling waves and red-colored Pegasus horses, which are equally exquisite.

Fighting color pieces were also rare treasures in the dynasty, most of them were supplied to the imperial court, and few defective ones were circulated among the people.This one from Anqing kiln is said to have been made by famous masters, and there are only three pieces in existence today.

Its value is evident.

Liang Peiqiu's gaze was firmly locked on the Tianzi jar with a hole removed, a treasure handed down from generation to generation, which became so absurdly defective.

Her mood was unspeakable, and her heart ached like twists and turns. After a while, her eyes turned to Wang Yunxian in disbelief.

She and Wang Yunxian had had a conflict recently, the young man under him didn't know, and really thought he was looking for her, but she knew there was something wrong as soon as she heard it.

Walking around in the direction of Xiaoqingyuan, it is not difficult to find the private warehouse.

After all, Wang Yunxian must have an ulterior motive in lying.But even though she expected that Wang Yunxian sneaked into the private treasury for other purposes, she really didn't expect that he would dare to take such a first-class treasure as the Tianzi Jar without authorization.

He still has the key to the private vault?
In just over a month, what happened? Why did he want to steal things from the private treasury?
A lot of confusion popped up in Liang Peiqiu's mind, and his eyes were full of puzzlement and disappointment, so Wang Yunxian didn't dare to look at her, and just buried his head in his chest.

After an unknown amount of time, she took a deep breath and said calmly, "Tell me, what are you and Zhang Wensi doing going in and out of the Crane Pavilion?"

According to the rules of the court, ordinary people are not allowed to wear boots.

This is especially true for the people of Jingdezhen. Most of them make a living out of porcelain and run a variety of businesses. It is really inconvenient to wear soap boots. Therefore, those who can wear soap boots here can enter and exit the Crane Pavilion without getting out of the sedan chair.

As soon as she cheated, she was cheated out.

Wang Yunxian's face suddenly turned pale: "You, you saw it?"

"Who is that woman?"

Seeing that Wang Yunxian drooped his shoulders and said nothing, Liang Peiqiu glanced outside the door.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, it was almost time for dinner in the evening.If he didn't see them for a long time, Wang Yu might send someone to Xiaoqingyuan to invite them, and it would be difficult to explain when he found that they were not there.

She pondered for a long time, finally turned her heart away, and asked through gritted teeth: "Are you recruiting prostitutes in the Crane Pavilion?"

Wang Yunxian immediately raised his head: "No! I didn't!"

Seeing the unbelief written in her eyes, he was really anxious, jumped up, and threw himself in front of her, "Pei Qiu, listen to me, it's not what you think, Wanniang, Wanniang..."

Seeing this situation, Wang Yunxian no longer concealed it, and revealed everything that happened in the past month.

More than a month ago, when he went to the theater to listen to an opera, he happened to meet Wanniang who sold flowers to bury his father.Someone saw that Wanniang was born beautiful and lovely, and became lustful. Wang Yunxian rescued her, not only gave Wanniang the coffin money for her father's burial, but also helped her punish the bad guys.

This move happened to be seen by Zhang Wensi. Zhang Wensi had met Wang Yunxian because of Wang Yu's inauguration gift. Zhang Wensi was really surprised. He didn't expect that the young man who grew up in the rich nest would be so affectionate and righteous.

They chatted very congenially, and they became acquainted after coming and going. Once Zhang Wensi invited him to listen to music in the Crane Pavilion.

There are a group of women raised in the Crane House, all of whom are skilled in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and all of them are outstanding in appearance. It is a place where dignitaries and dignitaries gather in private.

Wang Yunxian has been there once or twice, and he is familiar with the doorway inside, so he dare not go again.

There is no other reason, but because Wang Yu is taboo about "sexing prostitutes", he dare not cross the threshold at all.

However, in order to thank him for his kindness, Wanniang couldn't wait for him in the theater, so she threw herself into the Crane Pavilion for some reason.

He wanted to help Wanniang again, but Wanniang said that he was willing to be a cow and a horse for him, and let him be her first benefactor.

Of course he didn't want to, but he and Liang Peiqiu had a quarrel, and his heart was always unhappy. In addition, during this period of time, she often left early and returned late. The city was full of stories about her and Xu Zhiliu.

Even if he covered his ears and pretended to be deaf and dumb, there were always voices coming in, telling their stories of one kind or another.

He is not in the story.

There is no trace of him.

It was in such bewildered sadness that once he got drunk with Wanniang's company, he was completely confused, and for some reason, when he woke up, Wanniang was beside him.

Seeing that he woke up, Wanniang shyly rolled up the thin quilt.Although it was only for a moment, he saw the body under the thin quilt, exquisite and graceful, not wearing a single thread.

He immediately realized what was happening and ran away.

Afterwards, Zhang Wensi found him and mentioned Wanniang, hesitant to say anything, Wang Yunxian became more and more sure of what he did to Wanniang that day, felt very guilty, and wanted to save her from the fire.

However, if you want to redeem Wanniang, you need a lot of money.

Even though Wang Yunxian had some family background, he couldn't stand him going out every day, eating, drinking, and having fun. Every time he had a money bag on his body, he went out full and came back empty. For this, Wang Yu scolded him a lot.

This is on the one hand, on the other hand, since Wanniang entered the crane house, she is a "prostitute" in name, if Wang Yu finds out, not only the money, but also his skin will have to be peeled off.

That's why he didn't dare to tell anyone about it. He kept it a secret by himself and endured it. He was woken up several times in nightmares and couldn't remember what happened that night. How did it happen?
why is he drunkWhy would Wanniang...

"Master Zhang saw that I was having trouble sleeping and eating, so he helped me find a way. He said that some friends like porcelain very much and wanted to buy some pieces that are not available in the market at a high price, so I, I..."

"So you stole the Tianzi pot and planned to sell it to redeem Wanniang?"

Liang Peiqiu interrupted him, "Have you ever thought about what Master will think if this matter is revealed?"

"No!" Wang Yunxian said firmly, "Master Zhang's friends are all foreigners. He promised to help me arrange it and transport it away quietly without being discovered."

"Then do you know what Master Zhang's real purpose is?"

Wang Yunxian was taken aback, and took a step back unconsciously.

Liang Peiqiu took a step closer.

"Do you know that he once wanted to buy Junyaohong at a high price, but was politely declined by the master? Do you know that he once let out the rumor that whoever can get Junyaohong will promise ten thousand gold?"

"impossible!"

Wang Yunxian stopped abruptly, and met Liang Peiqiu's gaze, "Master Zhang has never mentioned Junyaohong to me."

Liang Peiqiu smiled helplessly, the master is old and hot, how could he have such a naive son?
"Haven't you understood yet? Zhang Wensi and Wanniang designed the Immortal Dance for you, tricked you, and used you for Junyaohong!"

Liang Peiqiu pressed her every step, "If you dare to steal the Tianzi pot today, don't you dare to steal Junyaohong tomorrow?"

"No, that's not the case, Mr. Zhang is not the kind of person you said!"

"Then who is he!"

She stopped him loudly.

Wang Yunxian looked at her in shock, as if he couldn't believe that the person in front of him was his good friend who had been with him for several years.She had never spoken to him so loudly, nor had she looked at him with such complicated eyes.

She has always endured silence, curled up in a stove, when did she become so aggressive?And so bright?

Wang Yunxian's heart was in a ball for an instant, and he couldn't speak a word.

But I heard Liang Peiqiu say word by word: "This person put on a big show when he first arrived in Jingdezhen. He used the pretext of promotion and celebration to ask for benefits from various kilns. When he was working in the state government, he was displeased by Shangfeng and was impeached many times because he was too happy to do his job properly. This time Ming was transferred at the same level. In fact, he was relegated. He was supposed to be sent to a bitter cold place, but after some mediation by him, he was temporarily transferred to Fuliang County magistrate instead of Lord Xia Ying. Is it too late to take up the post? Do you know the reason for the Nanman incident? Do you know why he is looking for Junyaohong?"

As she got closer and closer, Wang Yunxian had no way to retreat, her heart almost reached her throat, and she forgot to breathe.

"You don't know anything, yet you think he is a good person and really wants to help you? If you weren't the young owner of Anqing Kiln, who would take you seriously?!"

This is really serious.

Wang Yunxian immediately turned his head away, trembling all over, as if some emotion was rising, but he was forcibly suppressed.

Liang Peiqiu also turned his gaze.

When I mentioned it to Xu Zhiliu earlier, she saw that he seemed disliked by the new county magistrate, so she observed carefully. In addition, after dealing with kiln affairs such as Sanyao Jiuhui a few times, she found that this man was greedy and lustful, and he did not hide it.

Then, Xu Zhiliu's so-called "difficult to get along with" probably means—not a good person.

Master Xia Ying had just been conscripted to fight the Southern Barbarians, and he took the place of Master Xia on the back foot. Xu Zhiliu thought about it, but still had doubts, so he entrusted someone to inquire.

Sure enough, after a search, it was discovered that the Nanman incident happened suddenly, and Zhang Wensi's personal attendant had appeared in the Southland, and had been involved in the stronghold many times.

According to the news from Master Xia Ying, the Nanman Rebellion started with a priceless treasure.

Looking at Zhang Wensi's actions, it is not difficult to guess that Junyaohong is his bounty for the Nanman Rebellion.

What a way to encircle Wei and save Zhao!
His Shangfeng once said that although Zhang Wensi and Huimin were greedy and greedy, he was really talented.Wang Yunxian is a fluffy boy, and he is targeted by an old fox who has practiced for thousands of years. It can be said that he can't escape.

Liang Peiqiu was not angry that he was framed by others, and he was not angry that he donated righteousness to donate money. What was angry was that he knew what Anqing Kiln meant to Wang Yu, but he would rather steal than tell Wang Yu the truth.

Even if he was afraid of Wang Yu, couldn't she say it?

How did she hurt him, so that when he encountered difficulties, he would rather bear it alone than reconcile with her?
"One An Nineteen is not enough, Zhang Wensi will come again, who will be behind? What do you want to design Anqing Kiln? Yunxian, do you know what you are doing?"

Her words are pearls, and every sentence is heart-wrenching.In the past, the voice that sounded intimate and familiar was now like a knife. Every time she uttered a word, that knife would kill his heart once.

At first, he was still struggling to hold on, his eyes were wide open and he was not willing to be defeated, but after hearing these words, and seeing clearly the distress and soreness in her eyes, his heart suddenly trembled.

He suppressed the tears welling up in his eyes, his lips trembled slightly, and he uttered a few words: "Pei Qiu, yes, I'm sorry."

Liang Peiqiu shook her head, just sad that there was a seemingly insurmountable estrangement between them in such a short period of time.

She didn't know whose fault it was?Why come here?
She bent down to pick up the broken Tianzi jar, the opening was extremely thin and extremely sharp, and if she didn't notice it, her tiger's mouth was cut out bloody.

But as if she didn't care, she turned the Tianzi jar over and over again, thinking that there should be a chance to repair it.

Fortunately, it was discovered early that Wang Yunxian has not yet fallen into the mud.

This is also fortunate.

She tidied up the Tianzi jar, and she also tidied up her mood. She got up and prepared to take Wang Yunxian to find Wang Yu, but when she looked up, the warehouse was empty, and Wang Yunxian had long since disappeared.

She immediately ran to the door, the long solid wood bolt was hanging upside down on the door, the door was opened a crack, and there was a long copper key hanging on it, still shaking.

Knowing something was wrong, she pulled out the key and chased out the door.

　Xuande cricket jars are rare at auctions.
