Country and Beauty

Xie Fei turned to Liu Kun and laughed: "Come, let's go drink, we won't stop until we're drunk today!" Xie Fei was in high spirits, it was no wonder he was so happy. How could he not be wild with joy to be able to take two famous generals at once? Liu Kun was obviously very happy, it turned out that Zu Ti was now the Master Li (the ancient official in charge of the official records), and was the same as the secretary of the government in the capital city! Zu Ti was from a Wealthy northern family, his family had adopted more than five hundred Wealthy Stage people, they had often robbed people from rich to help the poor, and even if someone were to report him, Zu Ti would not hesitate to save him, thus offending many people. As a result, Zu Ti was not happy, after Liu Kun asked him about his situation, he recommended him to Xie Fei.

Xie Fei did not treat Zu Ti badly. After calming the Youzhou down, he appointed him to be the Youzhou and bestowed him the title of General of Northern Tribes! They had also completed Zu Ti's historical mission, however, it was not to the north of the Yangtze River, but the north of the Youzhou. Currently, the Jin Dynasty's territory was relatively small, only leaving behind three countries.

Zhou Jie, Zu Ti, Pei Xian, Xun Chuo, Xie Fei and Liu Kun left the General's Estate and headed towards the biggest restaurant in the city, the Drunken Immortal Tavern.

At the same time, from the opposite direction of Xie Fei, a handsome young noble and a delicate and pretty maid walked over. The young master wore a white brocade robe, his skin was as white as snow, his eyebrows were slender like a painting, his eyes were twinkling like the stars, his cheeks were flushed, and his entire body emitted a youthful and lively aura. However, there was a faint trace of worry between his brows.

Suddenly, the servant by his side saw Xie Fei and the others approaching, and anxiously shouted: "Young Master. Young Noble, the first man dressed in black robes in front of us to the left is the Marquis Jing Bian, Great General Biao Riding Xie Fei! "

"Oh!" The handsome young master was stunned for a moment, then he looked towards the source of the voice and saw that the young man was about 30 years old, tall, narrow and long, with a single phoenix eye. His eyes gleamed, and what surprised the handsome young master the most was the scar that ran from the corner of his eye down to his chin, which gave him a creepy feeling. The handsome young master was none other than the disguised Princess An Ran of Da Jin.

This morning, the palace maid, Cui Yu, told Sima Shu that the emperor had ordered for her to be married to Xie Fei. Sima Shu thought that although Xie Fei was a peerless warrior, although he was good at martialing, had contributed countless military merits for the country, and could even receive heavy rewards from the Emperor, he was unable to do anything as a husband. Sima Shu thought that in the future, he would have to live together with someone who would kill him with his hands stained with blood.

But the following words from Jadeite Jade made Sima Shu feel like smoke was coming out of her seven orifices. She only heard Cui Yu continue to speak: "But Great General Biao Riding does not seem to be happy with this marriage, they actually dared to talk back to the Emperor, and oppose the marriage!"

"What?! He actually dared to refuse the marriage?!" Sima Shu shouted in shock, looking like a female tiger showing off her might. If Xie Fei could see Sima Shu's expression that could devour a person, he would have definitely blurted out, "You unruly princess!"

Women are like this. They can reject things they don't like and people they don't love, but they definitely won't allow men to reject them. Although at times, rejection would be as they wished, they could not accept such an outcome. Although Sima Shu was not willing to be tied down by such a political marriage, she could not go to Sima Chi to reject it. Sima Shu was a sensible woman, and naturally understood that Sima Chi did this because she had no other choice. Xie Fei's achievements were brilliant, and he also had a large army in his hands. If Sima Chi wanted to protect the mountains and rivers, the only way was to rope Xie Fei in through marriage. In the royal family, she was the Eldest Princess, she wouldn't sacrifice anyone. Sima Shu secretly regretted that he was not a man himself, otherwise he would have been able to share some of royal father's worries.

Sima Shu was not in a good mood, but more importantly, it was her deep hatred, and hatred, for Xie Fei. Sima Shu was a rather ambitious person, to think that her, a dignified princess of Peace, would actually reject the marriage of a small Marquis. Thinking up to this point, Sima Shu couldn't help but be infuriated. Sima Shu wanted to take a walk outside the palace! Jadeite Jade was only a small palace maid, so she naturally could not control her master's will. After all, Sima Shu was the emperor's most beloved princess, and even if it was a dispute between him and an ordinary crown prince, Sima Chi would still side with her. How incredible it was in that era of patriarchs and daughters. Cui Yu had always been a good girl. She had told Sima Shu to change into men's attire and wear her clothes as she left the palace.

Like this, Sima Shu wandered around the Luoyang City for most of the day. Who would have thought that the world would be so small?

Xie Fei had just entered the Luoyang. In order to understand the hearts of the people of the Luoyang well, in order to control the Luoyang more firmly in the future, he had set up the Seven Slaughter Army with especially strict military discipline. Black Shirt Army had been in the city for a few days, and the people of Luoyang had committed no offense. Not only that, Xie Fei had also distributed his small amount of military rations to the citizens of Luoyang, striking them with his iron hand. He had attacked all the tyrants and thugs in the Luoyang City, so he was extremely moved by Xie Fei and the commoners. The ancient army and bandits were not much stronger. They bullied men and women, and committed all sorts of crimes. The citizens were already resentful towards the soldiers of the Jin Jun Jun, who were previously garrisoned in the Luoyang City. Xie Fei's army, on the other hand, had left a good impression on the citizens' hearts because of their strict military discipline and harsh punishment.

The people are easy to satisfy, and they will be willing to help you as long as you meet their basic requirements. As a result, when Xie Fei walked onto the main street, the two sides of the street immediately welcomed him with greetings!

Seeing this, Sima Shu's mind raced. She could not help but think of her own father. Sima Chi was the current Son of Heaven, but the commoners had never treated him like this before. Seeing the many commoners sincerely prostrating to Xie Fei, and seeing the tall figure in the middle of tens of thousands of people, Sima Shu was so excited that she could not control herself. This is my future man! Sima Shu kept saying this in her mind. Unknowingly, Sima Shu's attitude towards Xie Fei had turned a little fuzzy. Was this still the Demon King whose hands were stained with blood, who could kill people easily? Why did the people not fear him at all?

Right and wrong, it was a vague boundary. Sima Shu did not understand why Xie Fei was so loved and respected by the people, if that was the case, then this person's heart should not be bad. Sima Shu had the urge to go up and question Xie Fei, asking him why he rejected the marriage. But reason restrained her impulse. Angry emotions surged in his heart. Sima Shu bit her lips lightly, her eyes filled with depression.

Immediately after, Sima Shu resented Xie Fei, she did not understand why she had ignored her and passed down the order to her emperor to bestow the marriage, so far, Xie Fei had not come to pay his respects. Sima Shu's beautiful eyes slightly twitched, and immediately said to Cui Yu indignantly: "Is it because Xie Fei looks down on us!"

Cui Yu was startled, she never thought that Sima Shu would have such thoughts, then laughed: "Why does Your Highness have such thoughts?"

Sima Shu was confused, but revealed a doubtful expression: "Isn't that so?"

"Of course not!" Cui Yu said angrily: "Thinking about the fact that the Biao-rider general official was just a child of the Humble Class, if not for the favor of the Son of Heaven, how could he be lucky enough to be part of the court? It must be because he is too despicable to face His Highness, so he avoided us! Moreover, Her Highness is a beauty that can rule the world. As long as it's a man, how can he not be moved! "

Sima Shu was startled, then nodded her head: "I hope he has that kind of thought, if not I will make him pay!"

Hearing that, Cui Yu could not help but get goosebumps, just a moment ago she looked like she was going to eat someone, but now she looked like a grieving wife, Cui Yu wanted to laugh, but she was afraid of Sima Shu's identity and could only endure it, her appearance was extremely funny.

Sima Shu was silent, her mood suddenly became very bad. She had originally planned to properly humiliate Xie Fei if she saw him, but the hatred in her heart couldn't grow any fiercer when she saw Xie Fei.

Cu Yu came to Sima Shu's side and comforted him softly: "Your Highness, don't be disappointed. Since the Biao-rider general came, he might not be able to recognize Your Highness's charm until now.

Sima Shu nodded, her tightly knitted eyebrows relaxing slightly. However, seeing Xie Fei walk past her as if he didn't see her, Sima Shu immediately felt extremely empty in her heart.

The Drunken Immortal Inn was located in the center of the Luoyang City and faced with Li Yamen, not only was it elegant and decorated extravagantly, the wine and dishes were the best in the entire Luoyang. It was also the actual government guest house in the Luoyang City at that time, because Drunken Immortal Inn not only had all the dishes, color, fragrance, and taste, but it also served well, so of course its price was not cheap. Ordinary people would not be able to afford such a meal here. Even the wealthiest families would not resort to such extravagant means to come here to eat. One had to know that a normal meal here cost hundreds, if not thousands of taels of silver.

Sima Shu had originally wanted to return to the palace, but seeing that Xie Fei and the rest had entered the Drunken Immortal Tavern, she said to Cui Yu, "We should go eat too!"

After leaving Xie Fei and his group for a dozen or so minutes, he leisurely walked into the Drunken Immortal Tavern!

Xie Fei took the lead and walked in first, only to see that the Drunken Immortal Inn had an extremely large area, its business was extremely good, with over 10 square tables in the hall without an empty seat, and on both sides of the hall were simple rooms, each with a curtain separating them. Although he could not see the person next door, but if he spoke, he could still hear everything clearly. Next to the hotel counter was a winding staircase. Beside the staircase was a small sign: "Escort upstairs!" It was actually just a luxurious private room.

Seeing that Xie Fei and the others were dressed elegantly, with an extraordinary bearing, the waiter quickly came over and greeted: "Masters, the dishes in this restaurant are famous in the Luoyang area, please come in, please come in!" After which, he bowed and gestured.

Pei Xian took a step forward and said: "Prepare a private room for us!"

The waiter promised and just as he was about to leave, Xie Fei said: "Find us a quiet room, you will get your share of silver!"

Seeing that the waiter had taken the lead and spoken, he immediately led everyone to a small room on the second floor that was close to a window. This small room was decorated simply, and it did not lose its grandeur and grandeur, Xie Fei nodded in satisfaction as he and Xie Fei exchanged greetings, and since Liu Kun was not good enough for Xie Fei, he sat in the master's seat. The waiter then handed over the menu, "What would the guests like to eat?"

Xie Fei looked at the menu, the name written on the menu was exactly the same as the names written on the menu in the hotel now. Xie Fei looked for a long time, but still could not think of a reason, and said to the waiter: "Just serve some of your famous dishes, about ten of them, and two jars of good wine!"

Xie Fei took out a small piece of silver and handed it over to the waiter: "This is for you, remember that our dishes are faster!"

Since the Drunken Immortal Tavern was the number one restaurant in Luoyang, the waiters there were naturally quick-witted people. The waiter understood, thanked him, and left happily.

After a short while, the waiter delivered the dishes Xie Fei wanted. Xie Fei didn't care too much about the food he ate, unlike Liu Kun who had an elegant and refined appearance, he ate elegantly and elegantly!

After interacting with him for half a day, Zhou Jie, Zu Ti, the two of them had their own opinions of Xie Fei, Xie Fei was not bad, and did not have any airs of arrogance, and could be considered as a good superior who was considerate of his subordinates, adding that Xie Fei was sincere to the two of them, the two of them were moved! After three rounds of drinking, the restrictions were greatly reduced. Seeing that there were no more dishes on the plate, the waiter brought out two more hot dishes at the right time.

Zu Ti laughed straightforwardly: "I've heard of your two best poems, how about each of you compose a poem for me, and keep it as a good poem!"

When Pei Xian and Xun Chuo heard this, they were angered in their hearts, Liu Kun was fine, his literary talent was good, but there were many rumors saying that Xie Fei possessed both martial arts and literature, but they had never heard that he was an expert in the art of literature, if he could do it, wouldn't it cause the current Biao-rider general, the Marquis, to lose a lot of face, thinking: "This Zu Ti, he is truly looking for trouble!"

After Liu Kun heard this, he began to think about what kind of poem he should compose. Liu Kun pondered for a while and said, "Today is the Moon Goddess' Day, how about we use the moon as the topic for each of our poems!"

After listening to Liu Kun's words, Xie Fei clapped his hands and laughed, "That's a good idea!" If he wanted to completely subdue stubborn people like Zu Ti and Liu Kun, he would have to show his true strength and make them submit. Otherwise, it would be difficult to control him in the future. When it came to composing poems, Xie Fei naturally did not, but as a man with a history of five thousand years of China, if he wanted to use a poem to show off, it was still as easy as flipping his hand. After pondering for a while, Xie Fei decided to choose the poem he was the most familiar with, from the Song Ci. I wonder what year it will be. I want to ride the wind and go home, but I am afraid of the beauty of the palace and the cold of the high places. Dancing to clarify the shadow, how did it seem to be in the human world. Zhu Ge Pavilion, Ling Qi, sleepless. What should I hate? It was difficult to complete the story of the people who had their sorrows together and the moon that was full and round. "Let us hope that we will live on for a long time, with a distance of a thousand miles between us."

This poem was not sung by Xie Fei, but rather sung using a popular song. Xie Fei's unique gentle voice, together with the poem's conception, not only gave off a majestic atmosphere, it also gave off the feeling that the poet was depressed and did not wish for anything else. Everyone's expressions changed, but right now, Zu Ti's eyes were moist, filled with emotion. As a result of political frustration, the ideal can not be realized, can not be put to use, so there is a strong dissatisfaction with the reality, nourishing the negative thoughts and feelings of avoiding the world. But throughout, it is the kind of love of life and positive optimism that is expressed in the words.

Zu Ti drained the cup in one gulp, and then filled it up by himself, sighing. "I, Zu Ti, have lived for over forty years, but I admire only three people. Now, with you, General Xie, your literary and martial arts skills have transcended the mortal world. I, Tian, sincerely admire you! "

appeared to be much calmer than before. Even so, he was still frightened by Xie Fei. Liu Kun said: "In the past, I have always looked down upon everything, my eyes overlook everything, although I do not dare call myself an expert in martial arts, but I think that there are very few arrogant people in this world who can, but every single one of my words are earth-shattering and extraordinary! "If you were to compose a poem in front of Master Hou again, you would definitely have the suspicion that you are just playing with a hatchet!"

Xie Fei's expression changed, could it be that the reason Liu Kun left those three poems was because of him?

Pei Xian said: "A general has great talent, he is a god himself!"

If one wore thousands of clothes, the only thing one would wear would be flattery. Hearing Pei Xian's flattery, Xie Fei shouted excitedly: "Don't worry about it after getting drunk today, cheers!"

His drinking made the sky go dark, the earth go dark, and the sun and moon go out.

When Sima Shu heard that < When will the Bright Moon be able to >, his heart was filled with emotion. He returned to the palace like a zombie.

At this moment, Sima Shu was alone in her palace (I really don't know if a princess' room is her room or not). She was leaning against the window sill, her hands resting on her chin. Her beautiful eyes were staring out of the window in a daze.

In Sima Shu's mind, the arrogant and heroic image of Xie Fei could not be ignored, the words kept echoing in his ears. Sima Shu felt that compared to this poem, all of the poems she had written before lost their luster.

Sima Shu was secretly wounded, and shouted like a ghost: "Jadeite Jade, bring me my guzheng!"

Not long after, Jadeite brought out a plain looking zither made from fine materials.

Sitting in front of the zither, Sima Shu started to play the < When will there be a bright moon? >.

The melody was thick with gloom, with a kind of obsessive sadness.

Just as Sima Shu was feeling emotional and thinking, she suddenly heard someone speaking from outside the palace gate. Sima Shu looked over to the source of the sound and saw a tall and skinny figure with swaying pearl curtains. The person was dressed in a golden embroidered robe, and under the light of the candle flame, it was shining brightly. In the palace, only the emperor dared to wear such clothing. Sima Shu was shocked. He then turned around and kneeled on the ground, "This son greets royal father!"
