Zixu Changqing

Chapter 27

After they invaded Yingdu, Helu lived in the palace of the king of Chu, and the generals lived in the homes of the princes. Wu Zixu and Sun Changqing chose a neighbor, next to each other's residence.

Having said so much, Wu Zixu couldn't hold him back. He had no intention of eating, but finally got up to take a bath and changed into new clothes. When he walked to the hall, he saw Sun Changqing kneeling there, She waited for him quietly, without a hint of impatience on her face.

At this moment, the faint smell of food was mixed in the air, Wu Zixu looked at Sun Changqing, his heart moved slightly, and suddenly he felt a sore nose, very wronged.

Seeing that there was something wrong with him, Sun Changqing hurriedly stood up and asked, "Zixu, what's the matter?"

Wu Zixu forced a smile: "It's nothing, I'm just hungry."

He sat at the table, Sun Changqing smiled, came over to act as a waiter and lifted the lids in front of him, only to see that all the things in front of him were his favorite food.

In the afternoon, the qin master Boya played the piano at the banquet. The sound of the piano was melodious and melodious.

Wu Zixu praised: "Mr.'s piano sound has reached the perfection."

Boya leaned forward and said, "Your Excellency, it is absurd."

Wu Zixu asked again: "What is the name of this song?"

Boya replied, "High mountains and flowing water."

Wu Zixu nodded and smiled, "I don't know if you can play another song on the theme of me and General Sun?"

Boya looked at the two of them, pondered for a while, and then plucked the strings.

Squeeze, twist, wipe, pick, crisp and beautiful piano sounds flow out from under your fingers.At the beginning, it was slow but sonorous and powerful, as if a gold and iron horse were fighting on the battlefield, which made people feel heroic and majestic.Another melodious qin sound came out, like the breeze accompanied by the bright moon, and the falling flowers reflected by the flowing water. It seemed that the two were reconciling each other. The tones were different and the rhythm was the same.

The tune is soothing and soft, ending softly to a stop.

Sun Changqing was reminded of many memories by him for a while, and he still didn't know that the music was over. After a while, Sun Changqing came back to his senses, got up and saluted him: "Thank you, sir."

Boya also smiled back.

Wu Zixu sighed: "Although the piano skill is rare, there are always a few people in the world who can practice it, but the friendship that Mr. has in the piano is hard to find in the world. I wonder what is the reason for this song?"

"Respond to your lord's words." Boya's etiquette was not messed up at all, "I met a friend last year who is very good at listening to the piano. He can hear everything I play, no matter what the meaning is. We get along very well. , when I saw my lord and General Sun, I thought of my friend."

Wu Zixu was very interested, so he went to ask again, and Boya told a story about him and Zhong Ziqi, and said that they had a three-year agreement when they parted, and they would be reunited next year.Wu Zixu wished him a lot of money and sent Boya away with a lot of money.

After Boya left, Wu Zixu chatted with Sun Changqing: "Do you think I and you can compare with Yu Boya and Zhong Ziqi?" Sun Changqing said with a smile: "We are better than them. They can only play and listen to each other. Both of us can play and listen.”

Wu Zixu was in high spirits: "Bo Ya has an extraordinary bearing, so I don't know what kind of person Zhong Ziqi is? Why don't we invite Zhong Ziqi over and ask the two of them to meet in advance."

Sun Changqing sneered, just thinking he was joking: "Are you in a hurry?"

Wu Zixu brushed the dust off his shoulders, and Shi Shiran stood up: "You ordinary man can't understand, a gentleman has the beauty of an adult, this time I will be a gentleman, and this beautiful thing will come true!"

Immediately, Wu Zixu summoned someone to invite Zhong Ziqi according to the location that Boya had said, saying that he would treat him politely.

Seeing his high spirits, Sun Changqing suddenly felt that Wu Zixu was really different from before.

This kind of Wu Zixu reminded him of the phoenix on the totem of the state of Chu. He had seen it many times. The king of birds held his head high and spread his wings in the flames. He was proud, powerful and reckless. He was a real god.

Such a Wu Zixu, really nice!

Sun Changqing stared blankly, and when he recovered, he naturally felt a little worried.Wouldn't it be unsafe to be reckless?

But he reminded Wu Zixu not to do this, he looked up at Wu Zixu's rare relaxed expression, but he was unwilling to say anything.

I'll be on guard for him.

With Wu Zixu's ability to plan and make such great achievements, although he also knew that his worries were unreasonable, he still thought about them one by one, looking for possible hidden dangers for Wu Zixu.

After Wu Zixu finished giving orders, Sun Changqing also thought of someone, and said, "Bo Pi's pursuit of Xiong Zhen was fruitless, should he come back?"

Wu Zixu looked at Sun Changqing and suddenly felt something was wrong: "He plans to go to Suiguo to continue chasing him. Changqing, do you still want to investigate his recklessness on the battlefield?"

Sun Changqing calmly said: "Didn't you try to stop him at that time, and let him pay off? He also has merit in breaking Yingdu, even if his merit and demerit are equal."

Wu Zixu felt relieved. At that time, Bo Pi asked Ying to capture King Zhao, firstly because it was a big deal, and secondly because he wanted to avoid Sun Changqing's settling after the fall, so he smiled and agreed: "That's right! Then why do you ask him? "

"Is this an old hen guarding the chicks?" Sun Changqing gave Wu Zixu a blank look, and said nothing.Wu Zixu gave him a slightly guilty smile.

Sun Changqing's tone was cautious: "Old Wu, I know you two are close, but I always feel that it's Dou Mien and Sheng Mien. You have helped him a lot, but is he grateful to you or blaming you? You also know that Bo Chu He is not particularly big-hearted, and he doesn't know when someone might offend him. Besides, before him, for the sake of credit, he could even forget about military orders. You must be on guard against such a person. Even if you think it is unnecessary, you Promise me, you have to be on guard."

Sun Changqing's words were heartfelt and rarely serious, Wu Zixu smiled helplessly: "Yes, I promise you, I will guard against him, you old man can rest assured."

Although he agreed, Sun Changqing didn't know how much he had listened to, and he was still worried, but he couldn't persuade him for a while, so he could only talk about it later.

After saying this, the two went to take care of other political affairs. Wu Zixu sent off the envoys from other countries one by one, and was busy for many days.

Shen Baoxu

On April [-], at one o'clock, it was dark.

Sun Changqing walked around the area of ​​Yanzhi Pavilion a few times, seeing no one on the road, he finally left his horse in front of other shops and went to pat the gate by himself.

"Bang bang bang—" the person inside said through the door: "Guest officer! Our shop is not doing business now!"

Sun Changqing said: "I'll count to three, if you don't open the door, I'll tear down your shop!"

"one."

"two."

As soon as he counted to two, the door creaked open, a round-faced woman looked at him a few times, saw the Wu dress, she didn't dare to offend him, and hurriedly invited him in.

After entering the room, the woman apologized and said with a smile: "My lord, all blessings, you always come to our shop because—"

Sun Changqing: "I'll buy a box of rouge."

The woman smiled and said: "Then you have come to the right place. The rouge in Yingdu's shop is quite good. Which one do you want?"

This is a good question, and Sun Changqing didn't know which one he wanted: "What kind of rouge do you have? Show me all of them."

The woman smiled and said: "Master, we have more than 80 kinds of rouge, don't you want to be picky when you look at them one by one? Why don't you tell me what kind of girl you want to send, and I will give you a staff officer, I will do it for you." I have been in this business for 20 years, so I guarantee that you will give me what you want.”

This is exactly what Sun Changqing wanted, and Sun Changqing said: "I will send my wife off."

The woman praised: "Your Excellency is very considerate, how old is your wife, and what do you usually like?"

Sun Changqing's expression was slightly gentle: "She is 26 years old, she usually likes to wield knives and guns, and she doesn't wear this rouge very much, but I don't know what to give as a gift."

After saying this, he missed her a little bit.

The woman said with a smile: "I understand. You give this, your wife will definitely like it. Please sit down for a while, and I will bring you some rouge."

Then he turned the curtain and asked her daughter-in-law to get some boxes of rouge, then turned around and continued chatting with Sun Changqing.

They were all irrelevant parents' gossip, and Sun Changqing was in a good mood, so he said a few words to her.Her daughter-in-law came over with the rouge and put it on the table. The woman asked again: "My lord, I heard that there is a general named Sun in your country of Wu. What is his name, Sun Changqing? He is very powerful. He uses soldiers like a god. He is the reincarnation of the god of soldiers." ,is this real?"

"It's not that mysterious."

Sun Changqing thought of playing tricks: "I am Sun Changqing."

The woman suddenly became dumb.

Sun Changqing?

Sun Changqing!

The reincarnation of the God of War is a good way of saying it. Some people say that he is a born devil who eats human flesh, drinks human blood, sleeps on human skin, is cruel and ruthless, and kills without blinking an eye.

Is it Sun Changqing who came to buy rouge for his mother-in-law?She was actually asking about the family's parents just now!

The woman said in a hoarse voice: "General Sun, wait a moment, I'll bring you the top products in the house."

After finishing speaking, she left in a panic. Sun Changqing sat quietly. After a while, the woman left and returned, and said tremblingly: "General, take a look at these two boxes, one box of Taozhiyaoyao, one box of Yan Rushunhua, this It is the treasure of our town store."

That peach is bright red with pink in it, and Yan Rushun's flower is purple in red.Although Sun Changqing didn't understand it, he felt that the color was gorgeous, it looked clean and good-looking, and the fragrance was pleasant and not pungent.

Sun Changqing took out the silver and said before leaving: "Business still needs to be done, your shop will open tomorrow."

The woman hurriedly said, "No!"
