The Three Kingdoms Voyage

Chapter 85
It was getting late at night, and the lights in Xiangyang City became less and less, and the bustling Xiangyang City gradually quieted down.On the small building in the backyard of the prefect's mansion, there are lights like beans.Guan Feng was dressed in a Luo shirt and a brocade robe, sitting under the lamp, chanting softly.It's just that she seemed a little restless, although her eyes were still on the letter, she didn't know where her mind was.

Although my father said that this matter is just a perfunctory, even if we want to get married, we have to wait until a few years later, and no one knows what the situation will be like in a few years, but Guan Feng is still a little uneasy. A few years, wouldn't it be that you have to be in your 17s to get married?What if General Zuo agreed to this marriage for his great cause?Although his father loves him, he is loyal to General Zuo. If General Zuo agrees, no matter how unwilling he is, he will not be able to refuse.

Married to an eight-year-old?Guan Feng felt both ridiculous and sad.She thought of the Jiangdong woman who was somewhat similar to her. At that time, she thought it was a sad thing for the young Sun Shangxiang to marry General Zuo. Who would have thought that her own marriage was more sad than Sun Shangxiang? It's kind of ridiculous.

Guan Feng sadly put down the letter in his hand, and wrapped his brocade robe tightly around his body, but he still felt the chill invade his body.

"Miss." Guan Xiaoqing, the personal maid, saw that Guan Feng's face was not looking good, and asked with concern, "What's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing." Guan Fengqiang said with a smile, "Go and close the windows, I'm a little cold."

Guan Xiaoqing took a look at Guan Feng, not doubting him, so she walked to the window, reached out to get the bamboo pole supporting the window edge, her eyes glanced, as if she saw a figure, she let out a "huh" and stretched out her hand curiously. Going out to see what happened, Guan Feng sneered, stood up, and pulled out the long knife beside him. The knife shone like lightning, and stabbed straight from Guan Xiaoqing's cheek.

With a sound of "crack", the long knife was blocked by someone.

"Where is the thief who dares to break into the prefect's mansion." Guan Feng held the pale-faced Guan Xiaoqing behind him with one hand, and pointed at the dangling window with a knife in the other.

The window was pulled open, holding the bamboo pole that fell out of Guan Xiaoqing's hand in one hand, propping up the window, and then retracted.A faint voice came from outside the window: "Sun Shao took the liberty to visit and frightened Miss Guan, please forgive me."

"It's you?" Guan Feng slowly lowered the knife in his hand, and suddenly his face flushed. He hurried back to his seat, put on his brocade robe, and after a long pause, he said, "It's late at night, and Sun Jun is here." , how inconvenient it is, please come back."

Sun Shao outside the window sighed softly, his voice was like the wind blowing in the distance, with inexplicable sorrow.Guan Feng's heart seemed to be gently plucked by a hand. She pondered for a moment, and glanced at Guan Xiaoqing. Guan Xiaoqing was stunned for a moment, shaking her head in disapproval. , and took the door behind him.

Guan Feng wrapped her brocade robe tightly, and walked lightly to the window. It was only a few steps, but it seemed like she had walked for thousands of years. She leaned against the wall, opened her mouth and took a breath, letting the thumping My heart slowly calmed down, and then I said in a weak and inaudible voice: "Your come here late at night, forgive me for not being able to invite you into the room."

Sun Shao outside the wall smiled, although Guan Feng couldn't see him, he still bowed: "Sun Shao is reckless, disturbing the girl's rest, it's not right, but how to fight with the girl, the feeling is really unforgettable, so I dare to go forward Come, I have a few words to tell the girl."

Guan Feng was silent for a moment, and his tone became a little stiff: "Guan Feng is all ears."

Sun Shao's voice was calm and calm: "The girl is the daughter of General Guan, so she must have predicted her marriage. Even if I, Jiangdong, don't come to propose marriage, the general can't do it on her own. Either someone from another country, or a nobleman from my own country, not from the left. The son of the general, that is, the son of General Zhang, or other noble relatives, just like my aunt, cannot be independent."

Guan Feng remained silent. Of course she knew what Sun Shao said, but there was no solution.No matter how arrogant father is, can he still ignore the overall situation?If General Zuo wanted to use her marriage to make a political deal, there was nothing her father could do.With his father's status, even if he didn't marry Sun Deng, he would probably marry General Zuo's snotty son Liu Chan.

"Sun Shao heard his aunt talk about the girl before, but he didn't take it seriously at the time. He thought that the aunt's words were exaggerated. When he came to Jingzhou, he was really upset with your father's words. Today, after fighting with the girl, he knew that what my aunt said was true, and what your father said also had a source. "Sun Shao tactfully praised Guan Feng, and then sighed: "Sun Shao is not talented, and he couldn't bear to see his father licking the calf with affection, and missed the important affairs of the country, so he came here boldly, taking the opportunity of talking, and hearing about the girl again Lunyin, how dare you have the heart to enter the room, and act abruptly and beautifully?"

Guan Feng was dejected for a while, lowered his head, and said softly: "Thank you Sun Jun for your kindness, I can't repay you, the night is cold and windy, please go back and rest, Sun Jun."

There was no sound outside, Guan Feng turned his head to the side, wanting to reach out to see if Sun Shao was still there, but he was too embarrassed, so he could only ask in a low voice: "Sun Jun?"

"I'm listening." Sun Shao smiled softly, and then said: "The girl hasn't rested yet, is she just studying?"

Guan Feng rolled his eyes, and smiled softly: "Exactly. Sun Jun said that he wants to compare literature and martial arts. This martial arts has already been discussed, and tomorrow will naturally be compared with literature. If you don't make some preparations in advance, how can you be Sun Jun's opponent?" ?”

Sun Shao sighed: "Zuo Zhuan Chunqiu is just a rotten court dress, so it's fine for those sour Confucian scholars to talk about it, but the girl is so clever that she also talks about this kind of article."

Guan Feng saw that what he said was interesting, so he couldn't help laughing, but didn't refute, and said softly: "Then according to Sun Jun's opinion, so what?"

"If it's a literary competition with a girl, Sun Shao would rather talk about poetry." Sun Shao smiled faintly: "For example, 'beat the drums and use the soldiers enthusiastically', how wonderful it is, it fits the girl's attitude of Yunwen Yunwu."

Guan Feng's face was a little red, but fortunately they were separated by a wall, so Sun Shao couldn't see her.She raised her hand and stroked her hot cheek, but she didn't speak for a long time.The two lines Sun Shao said are "Beifeng Drumming" in the Book of Songs, and his intention is obviously not only these two lines, but the other two lines in this poem: "Hold the hand of the son, grow old with the son ", the purpose of his coming late at night is self-evident.It's just that such a bold and straightforward expression made her unable to accept it for a while, and she didn't know how to answer it.

"Girl, Sun Shao is going now, see you later." Sun Shao tapped on the wall twice with his hands as farewell.Guan Feng heard a soft sound on the tiles outside, and couldn't help but flashed out from the wall. She wanted to take a look at Sun Shao's back, but she didn't expect that there was a smiling face in front of her. Punch out.

Sun Shao had been prepared for a long time, and he shot like lightning. He grabbed Guan Feng's wrist and pulled it lightly. Guan Feng was involuntarily pulled to the window by him. There was only a wall between the two, and their faces were almost touching.Guan Feng was so ashamed that she no longer had the heroic posture she had during the day, and quickly lowered her head, not daring to meet Sun Shao's fiery eyes.

Sun Shao sighed in Guan Feng's ear, then let go of Guan Feng's slippery wrist, turned his head, reached out and pulled up Guan Feng's brocade robe that had slid to his chest, and gently wrapped it around her shoulders , Then took a step back, bowed, bowed, and leapt forward, flew a few steps along the ridge of the roof, then swept down the wall like a big bird, and disappeared into the long alleyway.

Guan Feng looked at Sun Shao's figure in fluttering clothes in the night wind, and gently held his wrist.A gust of night wind blew, she couldn't help shivering, and involuntarily tightened her brocade robe.

"Miss, why are you still standing here? You will catch cold." At some point, Guan Xiaoqing opened the door and came in. Seeing that Guan Feng was still standing in front of the window, she hurried forward to close the window, pulled her onto the bed and sat down. Feng's body was cold, but he just held on to his wrist, and couldn't help but blame: "Miss, look at you, your clothes are all messed up, did that apprentice bully you?"

Guan Feng was startled, and only then did he realize that the front of his shirt under the brocade robe was open, revealing a white chest, and his face flushed immediately.She remembered the way Sun Shao turned his head when he was pulling the brocade robe for her, and smiled shyly again: "He is not a disciple."

"Running up to Miss's room in the middle of the night, isn't he a disciple?" Guan Xiaoqing muttered, "I think he comes and goes without a trace, maybe he is a habitual offender."

Guan Feng was about to speak, but heard a faint sound of music. She listened to it for a while, then got out of bed quickly, walked to the window again, opened the window a crack, and the melodious sound of the flute rushed in immediately.The sound of the flute was melodious and clear, and it sounded very clear in the silent night, but it didn't feel harsh at all. The weeping tone mixed in the night wind, as if it was expressing some wish.

"Is it him?" Guan Xiaoqing asked beside Guan Feng, pointing to a figure on the roof of the posthouse.But she didn't hear Guan Feng's answer for a long time. When she looked up, she saw Guan Feng's eyes were fixed on the figure, and the two dimples on his cheeks were full of shyness and longing.
