Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

Chapter 386: Hard to come and easy to go

No matter how good the scenery of Chengdu Mansion is, Guo Shao still misses the people in Tokyo. He is anxious to ask his class to return to the court. Departed in mid-May and stayed in Shu for only half a month. He didn't bother much about the military and administration of the Kingdom of Shu. Most of the soldiers who accompanied the army were martial arts, so they couldn't take care of them; only the garrison was left, everything could be assigned to the court.

Only the men and horses from the front of the palace left early, the left side of the Tiger and Benjun Army, the Controlling Crane Bow and Arrow and Ma Junzhi.

The large army cavalry marched with full load to Suizhou, that is, the ship of the Shangshui Division, which went down the current. It is difficult to come, easy to go... The waterways are all downstream, first from the Fujiang River to the big river, and then down the river. It was a bit difficult to walk through the Three Gorges because there were many dangerous beaches and reefs, and several boats were crashed. But once we crossed the Three Gorges, "the sound of the apes on both sides of the strait could not be kept, and the boat has passed the ten thousand mountains."

After passing the Three Gorges, the lighter voyage made almost everyone happy. Guo Shao sent a small boat to the warship behind to invite the masters of the Shu Kingdom and his wife to attend a dinner on the ship. He hasn't seen Jingniang for a while, and Jingniang has been with Mrs. Huarui all day long...Of course Meng Chang is also on the boat, but Guo Shao doesn't think he can treat Jingniang.

... Until the evening, Jingniang was still on Madam Huarui's boat.

Jingniang was staring at herself in the bronze mirror in the cabin. She had a round and white face, long eyebrows, black eyes and eyelashes slightly upwards, her lips were smooth and light red, and she was shiny with pearl powder. The color of the skirt with collar and silk on the body is layered, and the pattern is gorgeous but not public.

"This is new clothes. I estimated my sister's figure when I was still in the palace. She was specially tailored to make it. I didn't measure it, but it really fits." Mrs. Hua Rui said with a smile beside her.

Jingniang's cheeks reddened slightly: "It's too tight, I'm..." She looked down at her figure. The material in summer was originally thin, but now the tighter clothes are fully supported on her body, as if it is too windy| Show off a bit.

Mrs. Huarui shook her head and said, "No, my sister has to believe me, so I can wear it in this way. My sister is tall and full, but her waist and legs are not fat at all. It is perfect to be tight; otherwise, clothes that are too wide will It makes you look too strong. What are you afraid of? Your body is tight and solid, without revealing anything. The style of this dress is also the most common dress, and there is no way to fall into the mouth of others."

Jingniang frowned and said, "But it looks too much."

Mrs. Huarui softly enlightened: "Which woman wants to look ugly? Since I want to look good, isn't it just for people to see, and why did she deliberately cover her figure?"

She looked closely at Jingniang's face very carefully: "You run too much outside, and the thin powder can't cover these small flaws. You must pay attention to the skin."

Jingniang's expression was still very embarrassing, and she whispered: "I only show it to Alang, and I don't need to cover it in my private room. I don't want to show it to others outside."

The relationship between the two is very close, and Mrs. Huarui also whispered: "It’s impossible for my sister to think this way. According to my observations, the man’s heart is very simple and straightforward. Something arouses his interest, so he can’t wait for it right away. Sister think about it. If at home, there are hundreds of women together, but they are all dressed in clothes... We have to pay attention to the pre-event, not the process and the after-event."

"There are hundreds or thousands, just a few can be seen, the other maids..." Jingniang said, "You have seen the dark and strong woman next to me, probably just like that. There are also two young women. , One sleeps all day long."

Mrs. Huarui could not believe it.

Mrs. Huarui got up from the stool, circled Jingniang, opened her jewelry box, picked out a huge dark jade jade ring from it, grabbed Jingniang’s right hand, and put it on her. Middle finger up. Then he picked up a gold pierced and carved bracelet and put it on her left hand.

"I don't even know myself..." Jingniang looked at her hand, "Why don't you wear a pair of bracelets?"

Mrs. Huarui smiled and said: "These jewelry are not to show off, nor are they necessary. We are here to set ourselves off... You see, this dark green ring is worn on the finger, does it make the hand look whiter?"

At this moment, the fleet stopped on the shore and was said to have arrived in Guizhou. The light outside has become dim and hazy, and the sun has set in the mountains to the west.

An **** walked to the door and said, "Madam, General Guo has arrived at the shore and invited the king and his wife."

Mrs. Hua Rui hurriedly persuaded: "Sister Jingniang, that's it, let's go out."

Meng Chang also put on his brocade robe and came out of the cabin, and a group of people walked onto the deck. I saw that Guo Shao was already standing outside, exchanging greetings for a while. Mrs. Huarui saw that Guo Shao was not the same as other generals. He had never humiliated Meng Chang. Sometimes he looked like a civil official, but his temperament was not the same.

Sure enough, Guo Shao couldn't move his eyes off Jingniang.

"The cook has already prepared dinner, please, Lord Shu and his wife." Guo Shao said. He approached Jingniang and said something in a low voice. Jingniang's face turned red and she gave him an angry look.

After the courtesy here, Guo Shao ignored Meng Chang and took Jingniang off the ship. On a wooden bridge, he said with great concern: "Slow down." Then he stretched out his hand to support Jingniang. Jingniang looked a little hesitant, and put the jade ring on Guo Shao's palm. .

The kind of soldiers on and off the ship are also looking sideways. It's not that everyone has never seen a beautiful woman, but they are surprised at Jingniang today.

Mrs. Huarui had no one to help. The only attendants around him helped Meng Chang back and forth. His body was puffy and it was more difficult to get off the dangling wooden planks. Mrs. Huarui had to silently follow behind to disembark.

……A group of four people seemed to have been friends with each other and took a seat in a cabin, and Mrs. Hua Rui was immediately attracted by the atmosphere here. The cabin is not big, but it has a very elegant and luxurious feeling. Mrs. Huarui looked closely and found that the curtains were all made of bamboo strips. There was nothing very valuable here, but... it turned out to be lights.

The people who set up the lights must be very knowledgeable. The light on all sides of the cabin is very soft and dim. On this table alone, there is an orange lantern hanging on the wall of the ship, with warm orange lights, and there are people sitting next to the table alone. This small area is elegant and soft. In this way, the rough cabin furnishings next to it can't be seen clearly. As long as you put a good-quality purple Ayara on this table, the feeling will rise suddenly, but you don't need too much luxury.

Coupled with Mrs. Huarui's knowledge of Guo Shao's status, a feeling of nobleness came into being. She understood for a moment that luxury is just a mood, not how much money is spent.

"The ice cubes offered by the Guizhou state official, and white fungus." Guo Shao said, "This is a good thing in the hot summer. Speaking of which, I have only eaten white fungus for the first time in a few years."

Mrs. Huarui said, "This thing is originally a tribute, more expensive than gold."

"Oh?" Guo Shao's face suddenly showed a surprised expression.

Mrs. Huarui touched Meng Chang lightly and said, "The Great General of Zhou treated us with courtesy. We should be grateful to Marshal Guo for his generous and kind heart."

Meng Chang said, "Isn't it just a tonic? I often eat it in the palace."

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent immediately. Mrs. Huarui became nervous after hearing this, and was busy observing Guo Shao's expression. Guo Shao laughed and said: "Supplements are not considered good things, they may be scarce."

Mrs. Huarui was relieved. I saw Guo Shao wearing a single head, a thin purple round-neck gown, and a good-quality tufted lingluo material; the old one can be kept neat and tidy and dressed very decently...just like a wealthy, thrifty and humble The aristocrats in China use good things but love them very much. Compared with that arrogant|excessive and extravagant dude, it is much pleasing to the eye.

This feeling made Mrs. Huarui feel very comfortable. She thinks Guo Shao is very special, probably because of his poor background, but his position and ministers? After all, there are very few people who can climb from the bottom to such a high position at a young age, so she feels special.

Mrs. Huarui remembered what she had imagined before, that Army Master Zhou would be an ugly and rude man like a savage. Now recalling it, it was really a prejudice.

"Come and have a taste, to relieve the heat and appetite before meals." Guo Shao greeted calmly.

Jingniang didn't eat it. Guo Shao turned her head and asked gently. Jingniang whispered: "I don't feel well in my stomach and can't eat cold. This kind of thing that is more expensive than gold is really bad; sweet things, I love to eat them. The fruit picked from the tree... come and eat in two days." She looked at the newly picked loquat in the basket on the table~www.readwn.com~Guo Shao calmly took a lute in his hand. Not long after the waiter came with the dishes and wine, Guo Shao took advantage of the time they were busy placing them, tearing apart the skin of the loquat, and said to Jingniang: "It's warm. My palms have always been hot, especially in this season. Hey."

Mrs. Huarui took a spoon and drank the sweet white fungus soup, but she collected all the words from the other side, and she felt soft for a while.

Guo Shao held another piece of fruit hot, tore the skin and handed it over. Jingniang's jade hand wearing a jade jade ring gently touched on, and in Mrs. Huarui's heart, a woman like Jingniang was also quite noble at this time... Before, she was going to build a Taoist person who pretends to be magical, and she is the best of the three. How can a generation have any status.

There is no luxurious palace, no hustle and bustle of silk and bamboo orchestras, the sound of the river "crashing" on the side of the boat outside, and the warm light, the atmosphere is very quiet and peaceful. It's as if a few friends are sitting here reminiscing about the past. Jingniang didn't know what Guo Shao was saying in her ear, her face turned red and smiled, and she became a bit more charming for a while.

When the wine and dishes were ready, Guo Shao held up the glass and said to Meng Chang: "You and I can drink a cup to make friendship. I hope that we will be ministers of the Great Zhou in the future, and there will be no more disputes and mutual enemies." r1058()
