Yurun Bingyan of the Red Chamber

Chapter 124

A few hours later, somewhere in the capital, a certain prince who had already changed into a coarse cloth and dressed himself up as an unremarkable pale boy swaggered out of the city gate under the watchful eyes of the city guards.After carefully noticing that there was indeed no follower behind him, he happily walked to a secret place he had prepared long ago, and quickly changed his clothes and came out.Holding the heavy protection in his hand, he sighed: "I don't know if Mo Yu has been caught. Is the prince a bit unkind, but Uncle Yan dare not do anything to him when he covers his father." He was consoling himself in the same language, but a voice suddenly sounded from above his head, which startled him a lot, "So you betrayed me with peace of mind?"

"Ah?!" Shui Mohan raised his head and saw Mo Yu sitting on the branch above his head with a serious face, "Mo... Mo Mo, why... are you here?" Mo Yu snorted coldly , fell down the tree lightly, patted the leaves on his body and said, "Have you forgotten who I am?" He is the current head of the Lin family, and there are countless bright and dark properties of the Lin family in the capital.It would be enough for the guards to find him for a long time if he just transferred to a family. It was impossible to trap him in the capital.In fact, Moyu left the city earlier than Shui Mohan.But this does not mean that Shui Mohan's use of him can be regarded as never happening.Shui Mohan obviously understands this to the end, and followed Mo Yu very dog-leggedly: "Mo Mo, where do you want to go? Let me go with you, okay?" Then even if he hides in the deep mountains and old forests, it will not help.

As Mo Yu walked forward, he said: "How dare I let His Royal Highness follow me? Maybe one day you will use it as a shield again." Shui Mohan smiled flatteringly, "Mo Mo, I was wrong Is it not enough? I won’t dare again in the future. I’ll stand on your shoulders for you, I’ll never hesitate to do anything.” Mo Yu was unmoved, and continued to walk around him, and Shui Mohan continued his efforts, “Mo Mo, let’s go to Jiangnan .There are so many beauties in Jiangnan, I promise not to steal from you."

"Then... let's go north, let's go to the mountains, and I'll catch tigers for you to play with." Keep working hard.

in the palace

"emperor."

Shui Cangming and Concubine Liu Gui sat in the gazebo and looked at the guards who came in a hurry, "The prince has left the capital?"

"This subordinate is incompetent. His Royal Highness and Prince Anqin have already left the city." Shui Cangming waved his hands and said, "Forget it, you go down." The guards led the order to go down, and Shui Cangming turned to look at Concubine Liu Gui, "Ai Concubine I am really a good father, right?" Concubine Liu Gui held back a smile and said, "Yes, the emperor is a loving and good father." Shui Cangming sighed, "So my concubine will stay with me for a while, and wait for Mo Come back with the letter. I guarantee that within five years, he will be willing to ascend the throne." Humph!If it wasn't for Aifei not wanting that brat to suffer, how could he run away so easily!Shui Cangming gritted his teeth in his heart for the five years he had lost for nothing.And Huangfu is leaving too... Ancestor, the emperor is really not worthy of being an emperor!I want to abdicate!
Although Shui Cangming yelled fiercely, he refused to let Huangfu Bingyan go.But in fact, Shangshui Cangming is not as good as Huangfu Bingyan in terms of persistence in many things.Otherwise, it wouldn't be the situation where he's doing his best to watch others carefree.Fortunately, after all, little Junhao was just born, so it's not suitable to travel far, and they won't be able to leave for a while.It's just that Yan Wang gradually seldom went to the court, and seldom asked about the big and small matters in the court.The military power in his hands was gradually transferred to Qiu Hentian, Wei Ruolan and Feng Ziying's subordinates.People who are smarter have a vague understanding that Yan Wang is probably going to retire.Some regretted that Yan Wang was in his prime, and it would be a pity to retire at this time when he was so powerful.Others lamented that King Yan deserved to be King Yan, and chose to withdraw from the imperial court at this time to avoid the king's suspicion and fear.

Naturally, Huangfu Bingyan and Daiyu would not care.Every day I only read books and play chess in the mansion, leisurely.And take care of the little Huangfu Junhao.In a blink of an eye, little Junhao was already over one year old, and Huangfu Bingyan also formally mentioned the matter of resigning to Shui Cangming. People, I have already scolded Huangfu Bingyan to death in my heart.Although he agreed to Huangfu Bingyan's resignation, he still retained everyone's titles, including Prince Yan's title, Daiyu's original title of princess and Xiao Junhao's title of prince.And it is decreed that the position of prince can be hereditary.Once again, he envied the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.After packing everything up, Daiyu and the two quietly left the capital without notifying anyone.

Two years later

The spring in the south of the Yangtze River is bright and beautiful in March, and the blue waves on the West Lake are slightly rippling.A delicate and elegant painting boat floats on the lake.The clear and melodious melody in the painting boat leaked out quietly, attracting the attention of many cruise ships.The layout in the cabin is also extraordinarily simple and elegant, but discerning people can see that everything inside is high-quality goods.This is the most beautiful woman in Hangzhou, and also the painting boat of Yuelan, the No.1 prostitute in the south of the Yangtze River.At this time, the number one beauty in Hangzhou, who was invisible to so many people, was sitting behind the piano case, plucking the strings gracefully, and a little cherry lip spit out a clear and moving tune.But the person sitting opposite her didn't look at her obsessively like ordinary people, which made Hua Yuelan a little surprised, but also a little bit displeased.

In the cabin by the window sat two teenagers.He looked about eighteen or nineteen years old, handsome and extravagant.Although the face is full of flattering smiles, it still makes people feel vaguely unattainable.The other boy was only sixteen or seventeen years old. He was dressed in dark brocade and had a jade-like face.There was a faint smile on his face, but those eyes were calm and deep, making people doubt his age, "Mo'er, shall we go out to sea and play?" Shui Mohan leaned in the chair unsettled , looking flatteringly at Mo Yu who was sitting on the side drinking tea.Some time ago, I heard that there is an island in the east, and there are many interesting things on the island, Shui Mohan was very excited, and pestered Moyu to go to sea.Mo Yu glanced at him lightly and said: "You have to go by yourself." Shui Mohan was very frustrated: "Why can't you go, Mo'er, you are afraid of water, right?" Moved, "You should have heard that it takes at least a month of sailing to reach the so-called island after boarding the ship. Do you think you and I should go?" Well, who is responsible for this?

"No, Mo'er, why are you so timid. I'm going...I'm going..." Shui Mohan lay down at the table and began to murmur.Hua Yuelan, who was playing the piano, looked a little ugly.At the age of 14, she became an oiran by accepting customers. She has always been a showman without selling herself. No matter how many high-ranking officials and nobles are holding gold, silver and rare treasures, it is difficult for her to see them.Although these two sons paid a lot of money to invite her out to swim in the lake, they never opened their eyes to look at her since they got on the boat.One was busy trying to please and persuade the other, and the other was drinking tea and listening to music leisurely, as if he, the number one beauty in Hangzhou, was just an insignificant background.How can Hua Yuelan, who has been held up all the time, bear it?Biting her lip, Hua Yuelan stopped playing the piano and was about to say something, Mo Yu frowned in displeasure, "What do these people want?"

It turned out that several cruise ships were gradually approaching their painting boat, and the noise on board was noisy, disturbing the tranquility of the painting boat just now.Shui Mohan was trying to persuade Mo Yu to go out to sea with him, but he was extremely displeased to be disturbed by these people, and said in unison: "I'll go and see." Mo Yu glanced at the oiran who was sitting on the side, with a somewhat unsightly face , also got up and said: "Forget it, let's go and have a look together." Both of them left, Hua Yuelan had to grit her teeth and followed.

Sure enough, the painting boat was surrounded by people, and there were already many rich men standing on the bow of the boat, "What are you guys doing?" Mo Yu frowned and looked at the people on the opposite boat.

A young man on the opposite boat said: "The one who played the piano and sang just now is Miss Yuelan?" Mo Yu said, "What if it is? What if it is not?" The man laughed and said, "We have long admired Miss Yuelan's name. I don't know if we can come out. See you?" The people on several other ships also echoed.Hua Yuelan had been aggrieved on the boat all morning, when she heard everyone's admiration, she stepped forward with a smile on her face and said, "The little girl is Yuelan, please be polite." People all over the world praised Hua Yuelan's beauty and singing.One of the wealthy sons said with a bit of a sour taste: "It is not easy for us to see Miss Yuelan, but I didn't expect these two sons to be favored by Miss Yuelan, and they actually accompany them on a lake tour. What a blessing."

"That's exactly what you said, why don't you come over and have a drink together? Let's pay a visit to Miss Yuelan." Hua Yuelan naturally understood the attraction of her appearance and talent in the eyes of these rich kids, and was about to agree with a smile, but Hearing Shui Mohan beside him say lazily: "I want to see Miss Yuelan, turn around and go to Qunfang Pavilion, I don't like to be disturbed by others." Mo Yu also frowned and said: "Miss Yuelan, we invite you to come today The one who plays the piano." After speaking, he glanced at Who Mohan in displeasure.Shui Mohan lay on the side of the boat, shrank his neck and said nothing.In fact, they are not really interested in the number one beauty in Hangzhou, after all, there is no place in the world where there are more beauties than in the palace.Even though there are very few people in the harem of Emperor Shui Cangming of this generation, all of them are first-class beauties.Shui Mohan has never seen such a beauty since she was a child.It's just that when I first arrived in Hangzhou yesterday, I heard about the reputation of Hangzhou's number one beauty, and it is said that she is also very skilled at playing the piano.Shui Mohan just thought that it would be a good thing to have someone who can play the piano and sing when swimming in the lake.Only then did he forcefully drag Mo Yu to the Qunfang Pavilion, and the old bustard who spent a lot of money on her eyes lit up with gold, and quickly sent out the number one oiran who claimed to never go out to accompany guests.
