Acacia, don't be negative

Chapter 588 Emergencies
The people outside saw that there was no sound, so they booed again: "My lord is not affectionate enough, let's do another song!"

Another group of rough men scratched their heads and said, "What does this poem mean? It makes people confused. Can you make a simple and easy-to-understand poem?"

Su Jing thought for a while, and then said: "White horses go around the green mountains, and black boats go from the south of the Yangtze River. When the swallows return to their nests, the love returns to the two."

Ye Qing and Miss Ying started to cover their mouths and snicker, and exchanged glances: It's really flirtatious.

Ye Song said in a low voice: "It's almost enough, don't make too much trouble."

Miss Ying opened her eyes wide and said, "Ah, Sister Ye, you actually helped him. It's not yet worship, and you can't turn your elbows out."

Someone continued to shout outside: "The more you listen, the more confused you become. I said, can't you be more simple, my lord? We can't understand it, and the second lady can't understand it even more!"

Liu Jie's voice came again clearly, with a very disdainful tone: "If you don't understand, it doesn't mean that the second lady can't understand either. The meaning of the prince is very clear. If the second lady is a horse, he is a mountain." The second lady is a boat and he is a river, the second lady is a swallow and he is a resting place..."

"Liu Jie, do you want to fight? Who asked you to explain it!"

"You say you don't understand, then I'll explain it to you, so as not to make a joke. If you are ugly, you should read more."

"You! Stand up and single out!"

"Miss Er is very happy today. If you hit someone, it will spoil the scenery, and it is unlucky for Miss Er."

"..." It was Ji Lin who spoke, and he was also the one who was deflated.He and Liu Jie are enemies at ordinary times, he knows Liu Jie well, but Liu Jie must have been forced to drag him to Hualou two days before revenge.

Su Jing waited for a while, but seeing that the door was still silent, she couldn't help but read a few more words: "The sun is waiting for the river and the moon, and the stars are like last year. The red candles are high, and the jade is glowing."

Ji Lin and the others still had a dazed look on their faces, Liu Jie continued to explain: "This is the scene of wedding candles in the bridal chamber depicted by the prince."

Ji Lin: "If you tell me, I can understand you!"

Liu Jie smiled subtly: "Hehe."

Ye Qing and Miss Ying laughed so hard that their stomachs ached, they bent over and covered their waists with an exaggerated look of convulsions and pain.Ye Song raised his foot to open the door, but was stopped by two young women.

Su Jing outside said: "My good sister, if you want to punish me, don't do it now. It's not too late to fix it in the bridal chamber at night. The auspicious time is coming soon, so let me go in first, okay?"

Ying girl said righteously: "Brother Su, what do you mean? How can we be punishing you? If you want to blame, you can only blame your poor poetry. If you can't impress Sister Ye, what does it matter to us? Otherwise, you can sing another Jiangnan ditty."

Su Jing had no way to refuse, who blocked him from going in, so she cleared her throat, and sang a hometown tune that people here often sang.The words in the minor key are very beautiful, and the tune is also very tactful. Su Jing's voice is like the long river water, sometimes gently blown by the breeze, sometimes gently rowed by the oars, it is actually very beautiful.His voice was leisurely and comfortable, and the expression between his brows and eyes was very peaceful. At the end of the tune, there was a kind of unconcealable joy and joy, which made people fascinated. The courtyard became quiet, and no one spoke. .His slender, white fingers were slightly bent, and he knocked on the door with his knuckles, once and for all, in harmony with the rhythm, which was extremely harmonious.

After a tune is sung, the lingering sound lingers.He smiled and said, "Can I go in now? If I'm not allowed to go in again, I'll climb the window and steal my bride." His voice is warm and magnetic, as if it has endless attraction.

With a soft smile on the corner of Ye Song Xipa's mouth, he said to Ye Qing and Miss Ying, "Let him in."

Seeing that the trouble was enough, Ye Qing and Miss Ying opened the door with a smile on their lips.Su Jing was standing at the door, looking handsome, but Ye Song couldn't see it, she could only see Su Jing's feet outside the door, and the red corners of her clothes fluttering slightly against the morning breeze.

He stretched out his hands to Ye Song, those hands were calloused from martial arts, but the finger bones were clearly slender, very beautiful.Everyone was witnessing the moment when Ye Song put his hand on Su Jing's.

It seemed that both she and Su Jing had been waiting for a long time, and finally this day came.Ye Song stretched out his hand slowly, and finally put his hand in Su Jing's.

As soon as Su Jing touched her, she immediately tightened her five fingers and held her, as if she was afraid that she would escape.The heat from the palm spread into Ye Song's heart, her heart began to beat irregularly, and then Su Jing led her out of the room, but when she stepped out, Ye Song accidentally tripped over the corner of her skirt , Leaning straight towards Su Jing, Su Jing helped her stabilize in time.

The people watching the excitement around followed suit and cheered together.

The matchmaker came in and urged her four times, saying that the auspicious time was coming soon.When Ye Song walked out of the gate with Su Jing, another string of firecrackers began to be set off beside him.Red scum flew everywhere along with white smoke.A bridal sedan chair was docked there, and the bearer raised the curtain when he saw someone coming.

It turns out that getting married is such a thrilling and expectant feeling.When Ye Song got into the bridal sedan chair, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and found that his palms were covered with sweat.

The sound of suona swaggered across the city, and the guard of honor set off and slowly circled around Suzhou City.Today, the alleys are empty for thousands of people, and the common people come to the streets to watch the excitement, and both sides of the streets are full of onlookers.There were also a few maids in the guard of honor who were in charge of spreading wedding candy to the crowd on both sides of the street, and the common people jumped up to grab it, creating a lively scene.

But there are also some women who force their faces to smile. The prince is not one of the most perfect men in their minds. It would be such a happy thing to be able to marry him.Now that the prince is married, but the bride is not them, of course there will be loss in my heart, which is understandable.They vowed: "Princess, you must treat our prince well and love him well, otherwise you will let him go and let us come!"

Ye Song really wanted to pull back the curtain of the wedding sedan chair, and said to them: "You have all given up your hearts in this life!"

But Xi Po refused to let her move the curtain, it was unlucky.Xi Po sighed and said with a smile: "Wang Concubine, there are not a few people in Gusu City who admire the prince. They will cry to death when they go back today. No matter how hard they try, they can't attract the prince's attention. Now, it has long been placed on the princess. The princess is really blessed to be able to marry someone as affectionate as the prince."

Presumably what Su Jing said when she begged Ye Song in the paddy field that day had already been circulated privately in the city.

Occasionally, through the gaps in the curtains, Ye Song could see layers of people standing outside watching the excitement.Later, when we got to the bridge, there were quite a few onlookers standing on both sides of the bridge, and some of them even climbed up to the bridge railing and waved their hands in order to grab more wedding candies.

This bridge is the only remaining and oldest bridge in Gusu. Almost all of the bridge body presents a blue-gray color, full of quaint atmosphere.

Today, there is no old man under the bridge, and no black-covered boats moored.Small quiet whirlpools appear from time to time on the water under the bridge, but no one notices them. Even if they do, no experienced people can see anything unusual. They just think that the river wind blows the water surface around , and some good-looking.

Since there are too many people on the bridge today, the small eddies on the water surface become more frequent.Quiet and imperceptible.Not only that, there were shocking cracks on the submerged stone piers on both sides of the bridge head, and a series of blisters bubbled up nearby, with muddy sand.

There is no gap on both sides of the stone bridge, and there is only a narrow passage in the middle. Su Jing can still pass by on a horse, but the wedding sedan chair cannot be carried.The people in the city also came forward to make a fuss, blocked Su Jing's way one after another, and asked him to carry the bride in the wedding sedan chair to cross the bridge. This is the custom here. Whenever there is a bridge, the groom's official The bride must be carried across the river.

Seeing that they didn't give in at all, Su Jing was not annoyed, she just smiled a few times, then got off the horse gracefully and walked towards the wedding sedan chair.Xi Po next to her was pinching her handkerchief and laughing like a nymphomaniac, she said to herself, "I'm willing to marry such a fairy-like person even if I lose ten years of my life!"

He stood in front of the wedding sedan chair, raised his foot and lightly kicked the sedan door, and then lifted the curtain to carry Ye Song out.

However, at this moment, the stone pier under the stone bridge was finally overwhelmed. It may also be soaked in the flooded river water during the half a year of Gusu's desertion, and the soil below became softer, causing the stone pier to suddenly sink into the water. .

Cracks also appeared on the arched bridge body, and the entire bridge deck lost its balance in an instant.

Before Su Jing could touch Ye Song's hand, there were voices behind her.This is different from the shouts of joy and excitement, but the voices of fear and fear.Su Jing withdrew and went back. Looking back, her complexion suddenly changed. She saw that the entire bridge body had already tilted. The person standing on the stone railing will naturally bear the brunt.

Su Jing immediately said in surprise: "Don't panic, everyone retreated in an orderly manner!" Then she asked the guard of honor to maintain order.

Even so, after the bridge leaned extremely, it still caused people to panic, and people kept falling into the water. Finally, just halfway down the bridge, the bluestone bridge could no longer bear it, and the ground slammed It broke and collapsed.The river was startled several feet high and rushed straight to the bank.

The common people retreated in panic, and the wedding sedan chair seemed particularly obstructive there.After being bumped and shaken a few times, Ye Song also got out of the sedan chair, regardless of whether it was auspicious or not.

At this time, there was a mess outside.Many people who are familiar with water jumped into the river to save people.Su Jing flew up in the chaos, and rescued the people who had not had time to run down the stone bridge and were hanging on the edge of the stone bridge. Those who accompanied them around the city, as long as they had the ability, jumped into the water one after another.
