Brother Rong of Red Mansion

Chapter 37 Ci Pai Combination Order

Not long after Jia Rong took his seat, the dancers in plain gauze walked in barefoot again and started dancing.

It is still "Marriage Between Two Lives", entering the second chapter "Leaving Soul".

Han Yuxiao became ill with longing for her and died soon after. Eighteen years later, Wei Gao has become a general guarding the border, but he still misses the late Han Yuxiao. When he was passing through Jingzhou on his way back to the imperial court, he met his adopted daughter Zhang Yuxiao at the family banquet of his old friend Zhang Yanshang. Because she had a similar face and the same name as Han Yuxiao, he wanted to marry her.

  Jia Rong, smelling of alcohol, held Gu Pan'er in her arms, teasing her softly while drinking and enjoying the dance music.

"But the maiko dance is not good?"

Gu Paner asked.

Although Jia Rong admired the dance at this moment, there was a distant look in her eyes. There was also a hint of compassion, which made Gu Pan'er feel suspicious.

"No."

Jia Rong shook his head and playfully pecked Gu Pan'er on the cheek.

"I just thought that Han Yuxiao was dead. It was Shengheweng who used his soul to reincarnate to bring a happy ending to this love. After all, it was just the imagination of the literati.

"Zhang Yuxiao, whom the emperor granted a marriage to and married to Wei Gao, was after all a noble girl rewarded by Zhang Yan, the military governor of Jingxiang, and not the Han Yuxiao who died waiting for her tears to run out.

"How can two completely different people have the same feelings? It's all a lie."

Gu Paner was stunned.

It was a perspective she had never heard before. Whether it is her or others, when watching this play, they will secretly envy "lovers finally get married".

But now, Jia Rong exposed this lie.

Wei Gao won the first prize and held a high official position. Finally, Emperor Zhongzong of the Tang Dynasty decreed a "happy marriage".

Actually, one man, two women?

After all, Han Yuxiao, the leader of the upper chamber, is dead. After Wei Gao became the champion, she and Wei Gao became people in two different worlds. Wei Gao's last choice was to marry Zhang Yuxiao, his childhood classmate and the current "adopted daughter" of Zhang Yanshang, the governor of Jingxiang. Maybe, it's just a political deal. How can there be so many loving children and short-tempered heroes?

Behind the beautiful love story, there is a cold and cruel reality.

This is also because Jia Rong, a modern person, is accustomed to criticize from the perspective of future generations. He really had no choice but to take on such a "beautiful" love story.

"Brother is really a spoiler."

However, Gu Pan'er was not moved. Instead, she felt sorry for herself and said, "How difficult is it for a daughter's family like ours to find a husband? Shengheweng used the pretext of leaving his soul to resurrect his life and wrote a happy ending for us. We felt like it in our hearts With hope, there is a breath of life in the mortal body.

"If everyone thinks like me, girls will stop living. It's useless to pray to God or Buddha anyway."

When Jia Rong saw her feeling sad, all the joy in her face disappeared. She hugged her soft and delicate body and coaxed her in a flattering tone: "Good sister, it's all my fault for making you sad. I'm usually a normal person. You are thinking nonsense, sister, don’t take it to heart, it makes me feel bad.”

Gu Pan'er shook her head, raised her delicate face, and her big eyes blinked slightly, revealing a hint of tenderness and admiration.

"When I saw my brother today for the first time, I knew that he was different from others. I never thought that he had the heart of a Bodhisattva. It would be fine if he was a hereditary playboy who fights eagles and lackeys. Brother Pian is a man with a lot of heart. It's possible. When you enter officialdom in the future, with this big heart and courage, you will definitely be able to make great achievements.

"Pan'er is so lucky! I actually ordered a flower card from my brother. It's really a blessing that has been cultivated in several lifetimes."

Gu Pan'er said seriously, suddenly raised her face and pecked Jia Rong's lips gently, and then fell softly into Jia Rong's arms.

Close to Jia Rong's strong chest, listen to his strong heartbeat and body temperature.

It seems that he is attracted by Jia Rong's charm, sincerely worshiping him and wanting to serve him well.

******
  How much of it is sincere?
  Jia Rong can't guarantee it.

Article 7 of the "Prostitution Sutra": "If you want to be serious, you must be fake." There is a note: "Prostitutes use sex to treat people and deceive people with love. This is how they operate. There are some idiots who don't understand it. I mean that he has feelings for me and is reluctant to let go of me. Only when I run out of money will I realize that he is a human being."

Jia Rong came to Taiping Tower just to be stubborn and did not want to get to know any "confidante".

So when he saw Gu Pan'er "falling in love", Jia Rong's eyes were clear, and the corners of his lips curled up in a smile, showing that he was "touched".

"I hope sister understands me and I will have no regrets in this life."

Jia Rong sighed.

When I started, I was a lot less forceful and a lot more respectful. He was groping and caressing Gu Pan'er's cheek more, expressing his "love".

Gu Pan'er, who was lying in Jia Rong's arms, was as docile as a cat and allowed Jia Rong to caress her. There was satisfaction in her eyes and a smile on her lips.

******
  The banquet in the brothel is just like the play "The Marriage of Two Lives", divided into four parts.

It has "start, inherit, turn, and combine".

So after the second song "Leaving the Soul", the maiko left the stage, and the banquet entered the next topic - the drinking order!

Is it appropriate to come to a brothel to drink and visit prostitutes without drinking?

Soon, Jia Zhen, as the host, stood up and volunteered to be a "drinking officer". He also started by saying "Cipai Hezi Ling" as a starting point.

This order means that the names of three word brands, if the first characters of the three word cards are the same, can be combined into a new word.

For example: "Magnolia", "Bu Suanzi" and "Zao Mei Fang", the three first characters "木", "Bu" and "Zao" can be combined into the word "Mourning".

Soon, Jia Zhen walked to the center of the hall, waving a Xiang Fei bamboo mud and gold fan, pointing at the nobles one by one, as if selecting troops and ordering generals, urging people to execute orders.

Some people were quick to think of a drinking order before the five drum beats ended, and successfully passed the level.

Some people scratched their heads, shook their heads in the end, smiled bitterly, picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

Three young brothers, Jia Lian, Jia Rong, and Jia Qiang, are also on the list of orders.

"Brother Lian, it's your turn."

After a while, Jia Zhen walked up to Jia Lian, stroking her beard and looking at him with a smile.

"Brother Zhen, all the gentlemen have given you all the necessary orders. Where can I find anything else? Let's look at Brother Rong."

Jia Lian pursed his lips and smiled, briefly defending himself. He took the initiative to punish Jia Rong with a glass of wine, "driving the trouble eastward" and pointed the finger at Jia Rong.

At noon today, Jia Rong was on the second floor of Biyunxuan, having a verbal battle with the scholars, winning consecutive battles. That all-powerful scene still makes Jia Lian envious. Therefore, Jia Lian is very much looking forward to Jia Rong's "blockbuster" again.

In fact, many people have this idea and want to take a look at Jia Rong's performance.

Not surprisingly, Jia Rong "cheated" again. Cipai combination order? What's wrong!
  Facing the expectant eyes of Jia Zhen and everyone, Jia Rong hugged Gu Pan'er, straightened her back, and suddenly smiled brightly, with a look of confidence in her eyes.

"The flute under the moon, the Western Brocade, the female crown. No more, no less, it happens to be the word 'waist'."

Jia Rong spoke frivolously, looked around at everyone with a half-smile, and spoke out a drinking order in a nonchalant manner. But when everyone heard it, they all burst into laughter and applauded.

"wonderful!"

"It's absolutely wonderful!"

"Haha, they all say that Jia Lianhua has extraordinary literary talent and is knowledgeable and knowledgeable. He once fought with the scholars in Biyunxuan, and stepped on Niufu brother to the point where he couldn't lift his head! I saw it today, and he is indeed quite capable. He is a man of literary and military skills. of."
