The bad emperor of Tang Dynasty

The summer is getting stronger, the warm and cool wind is blowing, and the green willows on both sides of the river are curling up, creating a beautiful scenery.This scene is reflected in the pupils of the eyes, and joy is in the heart.

In his spare time, he took out a purple bamboo flute from his bosom, which Shengping's wife had given him, and played a flute song elegantly, which seemed melodious and melodious on the bank of the canal with rippling clear water and the clear blue sky.

Recently, in order to supervise the construction progress of the new canal, Guo Nuan ran between the government office in the city and the Weishui River outside the city every day. Under the scorching sun, he wore out four pairs of cloth shoes during the construction of the canal in one month.

Watching the thousands of laborers on the Caoyun River digging the river in full swing, building the granite dams, building canals to divert water and repairing the farmland irrigation system, accompanied by the sound of rumbling explosives, the construction of the project has entered the summer in an orderly manner.

On both sides of the river bank is a pile of high mountain bags of soil.Standing on a high place in the earth, Guo Nuan overlooked the grand canal tunnel excavation project below. For such a rapid progress, although the pressure on his heart was still heavy, he felt relieved. He conservatively estimated that the task could be completed in mid-winter.

Taking a break from his busy schedule, Guo Nuan relaxed his nerves that had been tense for two consecutive months, and walked alone to the Weishui River next to the Xinhe River. He was leisurely watching the summer riverside scenery.

Leaning against the long corridor carved with white marble railings for ten miles, standing in the wind, Guo Nuan overlooks the sparkling clear water of the river, small boats and light boats, painting boats and boats swaying past, the sky is high and the clouds are light and the wind is light. Doesn’t this natural beauty make Guo Nuan excited .

After climbing over the railing, Guo Nuan ran to the stone embankment by the river below, rolled up his trouser legs, sat on the stone steps, dipped his feet in the clear river water, and looked at the boats on the river in the distance. Nuan Xin happily played a cheerful flute.

"Sister, you sit on the bow of the boat.

Brother, you go ashore.

Love, love, love, swinging the rope

. . .

The love of the two of us. The love of the two of us.

Swing on the rope, oh, oh, oh, oh. ． ． "

While Guo Nuan was playing the flute, he saw a fishing boat fishing on the river. It looked like a young couple on the bow. A dark and strong farmer was throwing a fishing net at the stern, and a simple farmer was weaving a net beside the bow.For a while, I had the pleasure of singing, so I sang loudly a fisherman's song "The Love of the Tracker" in my previous life

The singing voice is both loud and melodious, full of celebratory meaning. Under Guo Nuan's hard singing, the fishing couple on the fishing boat on the distant river waved friendly again and again, and the peasant girl also sang an unknown fisherman's song It is very interesting to respond to each other with Guo Nuan.

After a fisherman's song was sung, the fishing boats also swam down the river, gradually disappearing from sight along with the singing on the boat.Guo Nuan sang loudly, and it was a pleasure to compete with the fishermen. Standing on her toes, she stared at the distant boats, with a look of endless joy on her face.

"Wow!" Just as Guo Nuan was standing on the steps, a small stone was thrown down from the verandah above, and the small stone splashed small waves of the river, soaking Guo Nuan's gown.

Just when he was about to raise his head to find the place where the stone was thrown, another small stone was thrown down in an elegant arc, and it landed precisely on the shallow water steps where Guo Nuan was standing, and immediately stirred up bigger waves, and Guo Nuan's trouser curtain immediately Wet a large piece.

"Heck, the idiot's singing is quite nice."

Guo Nuan raised her head and looked up at who was on the white jade railing above her head, but her gaze was in the direct direction of the noon sun, it was very dazzling, covered in white mist, and she could vaguely see a woman with a graceful figure leaning on the railing, facing him like a yellow warbler from above. After speaking, there was a string of silver bells laughing.

After a while, after getting used to the glare of the sun, Guo Nuan finally saw clearly who this mischievous troublemaker really was.

The woman at the railing is wearing a light yellow long dress, and the sleeves flutter under the wind blowing Buddha, like a fairy who has come out of the dust, with a pink face, jade cheeks and vermilion lips, shoulder-length shiny black hair like a waterfall, and willow-leaf eyebrows, Exquisite and flawless facial features are inlaid with a pair of watery black gemstone eyes. The whole person is slim and graceful, flashing a lively aura all the time. The age is estimated to be seventeen or eighteen, which is the beautiful time of a woman's youth.

"Haha, what a naughty little girl, don't tell me you have to use pebbles to say hello, can't you use another way?"

Standing below, Guo Nuan helplessly lifted the drenched skirt to the woman, then smiled heartily, and then shouted at the pretty little girl, Guo Nuan didn't seem to be angry.

"Hehe, just now, this girl has been listening to you singing. The fishing boat is gone. What are you still doing in a daze? If you don't throw a few pebbles, how can you come back to your senses, you idiot."

The woman seemed not to pursue her own mistakes, and then she replied with a sly look like a urchin, her beautiful eyes flashing.

Guo Nuan was a little speechless, it seemed that this little girl had some naughty habits.Just as Guo Nuan was thinking secretly, another voice came from above:

"Hey, what's the name of the fisherman's song you sang just now? It's really nice, I want to learn it, so teach me." The woman interrupted Guo Nuan's train of thought with a smile.

"My lord... Well, I was wrong, it is my son. I have been very busy recently and have no time to teach people to sing. Little girl, go home quickly, and stop wandering around like a wild cat."

"Stingy ghost! Why don't I spend money to ask you to go home with me and teach me, okay?"

The woman soon put on a displeased face, wrinkled her delicate little nose, then rolled her eyes, and put a cheapskate hat on Guo Nuan in a childlike tone.

Guo Nuan was a little dumb, and laughed in her heart, feeling that she was busy with business and had no time to teach others to sing, she was a little dissatisfied, she looked like a big lady, and casually called herself a cheapskate.

"I really don't have time. If the little girl wants to learn to sing, uh, why don't you go to the music workshop in Chang'an City to learn from the teacher. There are many famous musicians there. They can sing many famous songs. My brother sings very well." They can't compare to each other, it's so ugly."

Guo Nuan's self-deprecating skills are quite good, he doesn't mind talking about self-harm, his face doesn't blush and his heart doesn't beat, even he feels that his words have a sense of deceiving children, like some kind of rapacious animal— — Big bad wolf.

"Jiaofang? My father hired dozens of well-known musicians from the Central Plains every year to tutor me in music art, but I don't think they sing well at all. Yiyi, it's so ugly."

The woman tilted her head and blinked, thought for a while, and then said bluntly:

"Hi! Also, I'm not a little girl. I don't like this name very much. Besides, I'm not a young girl. I'm seventeen this year. You should politely call me Miss Cui."

"Uh..." Guo Nuan was a little speechless for a while, the young woman was more polite than herself, her expression of joy, anger, sorrow and joy was all displayed on her face, without any concealment.But he admired such a straightforward and generous girl.

"Whether you teach or not! I'm asking you something, why don't I ask my guard, Uncle Qian, to tie you home and see if you teach or not!" The woman became a little impatient, and then said angrily, delicately His face was bulging with anger.

"Oh, I'm so scared. The little girl can still scare people. No, you have to sneak away, or your Uncle Qian will be tied up at your house when Uncle Qian comes."

Guo Nuan then cooperatively put both fingers to his mouth, pretended to be scared, shook exaggeratedly a few times, turned around, crossed his hips, twisted his neck from side to side, and pouted his buttocks towards the top of the railing. The woman twisted a few times coquettishly, and sang loudly:

"Three laps to the left and three laps to the right, twist your neck and buttocks, let's do some exercise together..."

Seeing this scene, the woman's nose was almost crooked, and she shouted at Guo Nuan in embarrassment: "If you dare to escape, be careful that this girl is angry, but it's terrifying!"

"Hey, Fangzheng's little girl can't catch up with me, so I won't play with you, I'll run away." Most of Guo Nuan's clothes have been soaked by the waves, and the summer weather is hot, just in time to take a bath in the water, and go downstream Down the river back to the city.

Immediately, he also lightly jumped from the shallow water bank to the depths of the river, swam to the middle of the river like a fish, and then proudly waved to the woman on the railing above the distant embankment, ready to swim away.

"How dare you go—you idiot, if you go again, this girl will jump off, and I'll tell you in advance that I can't swim!"

The woman in the distance immediately became anxious, jumping and jumping in the corridor, shouting at Guo Nuan.

"Let's jump, let's jump! I won't save you." Guo Nuan happily swam in the water, getting farther and farther away. He laughed loudly. He didn't believe that if the woman couldn't swim, she would bravely jump down.

"Peng!" Under Guo Nuan's sluggish gaze, a beautiful figure in yellow clothes really jumped from the height of the embankment, and then the woman struggled desperately in the rushing river, almost her whole head was submerged in the river water, only two jade lotus roots stretched out. His arms were dangling on the surface of the water, and he was drinking a lot of water depending on the situation.

"Grandma, it really jumped..." Guo Nuan murmured to herself speechlessly, and then quickly regained consciousness, and hurriedly swam upstream with all her strength, preparing to rescue this strong girl who fell into the water. ． ．
