Chapter 104: 戈戈
Chapter 104
The incense burner dropped a mottled dark color on the carpet, and a layer of strange colors suddenly appeared on the bright woven carpet, which was particularly dazzling against the sound of rain outside the window.
Lu Zhen looked at the young man in front of him, his heart gradually sinking.
Why is Pei Yunying in Yuxian Tower?
Today is Qi Yutai’s birthday, so I invite all my friends. His friends are of high status, and according to their qualifications, most of them should live on this floor.
But Pei Yunying is here, could it be that he and Qi Yutai...
The young man's eyes passed over the fallen incense burner on the ground. After a long time, he looked up at her again.
Lu Zhen clenched his palms slightly.
She has seen how suspicious this person is. How can she explain the current situation? Moreover, if he has a secret conspiracy with the Qi family, revenge will be even more difficult.
“Why did you come up?” he asked.
Lu Zhuo was startled.
Pei Yunying casually put the silver knife on the table, sat down in front of the desk, and called to her: "Close the door."
Lu Zhen suddenly realized that Pei Yunying didn't recognize her!
Also, Yin Zheng's dressing skills are extraordinary. When she passed by the bronze mirror downstairs today, she glanced inside. It was painted with rouge and gouache like a monster, and her face was even covered with beaded gauze. Pei Yunying should have recognized her as the dancer in Yuxian Tower. Perhaps he had originally asked someone to go upstairs and she mistakenly confirmed her identity.
“What are you doing standing still?” he asked again.
Lu Zhen lowered his head, walked to the door and closed it.
Hesitating will only arouse suspicion, so you can only make a move first.
The door was closed, and the sound of rain outside the window became quieter. The peony on the small table was decorated with golden beads and the lamp was eye-catching. Pei Yunying sat down in front of the table, surrounded by a dazzling array of pearls and greenery. The indifference in his eyes showed a rare reality.
Seeing Lu Yan's eyes, the indifference quickly faded away and became bright again. Pei Yunying raised the corners of her lips and asked casually: "Can't you speak Mandarin?"
Lu Zhuo nodded.
The new group of dancers in Yuxian Tower are from foreign tribes. Some can speak Shengjing dialect and some can't. Those who can speak Shengjing dialect are always more popular here, while those who cannot speak Mandarin are left out. But for the romantic drunkards in the building, it was just a temporary novelty.
The reason why Lu Zhen dressed up as a dancer was because there was a veil to cover her face and make it easier for her to act. I didn't expect to meet an acquaintance here, but because of this, I, who couldn't speak or show my face, could continue to "act" in front of Pei Yunying without any harm.
He looked at Lu Xiaoxiao again, and ordered a few glasses on the table: "Aren't you going to pour some wine?"
Lu Zong paused and had no choice but to walk over.
She stopped next to Pei Yunying, tried her best to look docile and lovely, and picked up the wine bottle to pour wine for him.
The clear wine fell into the sapphire cup, and the tinkling sound was melodious. When Lu Zhu bent down, the mist-like cloth brushed over the young man's face. His eyebrows moved slightly, and he avoided it slightly, as if he was deliberately widening the distance between him and her.
After pouring the wine, Lu Zhuo stood up straight and stayed at Pei Yunying's side obediently. Maybe it was because of the veil, or maybe it was because the sweet aroma in the room was too overwhelming, and the smell of alcohol was very weak, and she almost didn't smell the alcohol.
Pei Yunying picked up the cup, lowered his head and took a sip, then looked at the xylophone in front of the table.
Lu Zong followed his gaze and his heart sank.
Sure enough, the next moment, I heard this man’s smiling voice: “Can you play the piano?”
Lu Huan: “…”
The family in Changwu County originally only had an old piano, which was bought for Lu Rou to practice. She couldn't stand the hardship of practicing the piano. She was born like a glutinous rice dumpling when she was young. She never liked piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. When she first bought it, her father hoped that she could practice the piano. In order to avoid practicing, Lu Chen deliberately played the piano in a mess. Sure enough, within a few days, all the neighbors on the street came to persuade the mother to forget it, why let the little girl suffer this - no one could sleep well at night.
Let’s leave it at that.
Now that Pei Yunying asked her if she knew how to play the piano, Lu Zhu suddenly felt a little regretful. If he had known this, he shouldn't have been lazy back then. It would have been better to grit his teeth and learn the piano than what he was doing now.
After a moment of silence, Lu Zhuo shook his head slightly.
He smiled, as if he was troubled, and thought for a moment before speaking.
"I heard that Cuicui, the new dancer from Yuxian Tower, has a skirt like a flying swallow and sleeves like snow. One dance can be worth a hundred pearls. I have never seen it before." He supported his head with his hands and looked at her meaningless smile, " Then you have a dance.”
Lu Huan: “…”
Having just escaped the harm of playing the piano, this man proposed to dance. If she could dance, her hands and feet wouldn't be so clumsy when she was a child. Speaking of which, maybe Lu Qian can dance better than her. Regarding dancing, Lu Yan's memory still remains of following Lu Rou before she was five years old. The soft hair blows, making the dance more charming.
More than ten years have passed, and it seems that her dancing has not improved at all. It's okay not to jump, but I'm afraid someone will find out immediately if I jump.
Pei Yunying was waiting for her in a leisurely manner.
Lu Zhen suddenly felt that maybe the person in front of her was not compatible with her and was born to defeat her.
But facing Pei Yunying's interested gaze, she couldn't say no at all.
A dancer may not be able to play the piano, but she cannot be unable to dance. The flaws are too obvious, not to mention that Pei Yunying is a smart person.
Lu Chen had no choice but to take a few steps forward and slowly move into the woven gold coral blanket in the room. For a moment, she wanted to break the jar. Not to mention what she would do to Qi Yutai in the future, she might as well do it now. Let's poison the scourge in front of us with the poisonous powder first.
Just when she raised her arms stiffly, another voice came from behind: "Forget it." Pei Yunying said: "The ashes of the incense burner are scattered on the floor, making it difficult to dance. Come and rub my shoulders."
Lu Zhen breathed a sigh of relief and gritted his teeth secretly.
This man did this several times. He was clearly teasing her on purpose, or was this just the fun of these rich and powerful princes? She heard Yin Zheng say that things that can be done must be done by others, and things that can be obtained must be separated by a layer of veil. Men and women in deep love like to do this most, and it is euphemistically called "fun".
Lu Zhen doesn’t understand emotions, nor does he understand the joy of men and women. If the situation wasn’t wrong, he would almost kill Pei Yunying.
But people had to lower their heads under the eaves. Lu Zhu walked behind Pei Yunying, took a deep breath, and put his hands on his shoulders.
Pei Yunying's back was turned to her, and his expression could not be seen, but his posture was extremely relaxed.
Same, it was someone else who was tormenting him, so of course he relaxed.
Lu Zhen suppressed the urge to kill this person with a knife and gently kneaded and pressed him.
At the hospital, patients with sore shoulders and legs have come to see them, and Lu Huo has also massaged them. The strength of her massage is neither light nor heavy, and most of the time it is satisfactory. At this moment, there is a strong wind and heavy rain outside the window, but it is as warm as spring in the Nuan Pavilion. Downstairs, there are beauties with silver candles, drinking every night, and the faint singing of actors can be heard, which makes it feel a bit beautiful.
Lu Zong lowered his eyes half-way.
Pei Yunying has broad shoulders and a narrow waist. She looks very beautiful in official uniform. He looks very contradictory. The official uniform of the front office has a tough cut, but the collar and wristbands are embroidered with gorgeous embroidery, just like what he looks like to others.
Looking friendly and approachable, it is actually like the cold jade snow, hiding a coldness.
There is no shadow of Qi Yutai in this room, Qi Yutai is not here, and if she wants to find Qi Yutai, she must first get away from Pei Yunying. The medicine she carried was either life-threatening or not suitable for use on him. He was drunk but not drunk... He had to think of other ways.
Or knock him out directly? There was only one incense burner in the room, and it was scattered on the ground. Her needle would work, but it would require blood. Moreover, there may be Pei Yunying's guards nearby. If something happens, it will be difficult to escape.
She came to see Qi Yutai today and did not want to cause any trouble.
I was thinking in my heart when I suddenly heard a voice in my ear: "Why are you so absent-minded?"
Before she had time to react, the next moment, Lu Yan's hand was held by someone. The world was spinning. She felt her body being pulled forward, and she suddenly threw herself in front of Pei Yunying.
The four eyes face each other.
The silver candle on the table swayed twice, and the shadow on the wall also swayed twice. The figure gradually condensed on the wall, like a dim old dream.
Lu Zhen's heart moved slightly.
Ever since he knew that she was going to sneak into Yuxian Tower, Yin Zheng always talked to her about these things in the romantic field. There are scholars and oirans, princes and courtiers, scholar-officials and harem girls, it’s all a mess, it’s nothing more than love affairs between men and women.
The pulling, chasing, and teasing between men and women end up rolling together on the couch. She always felt that it was not very real when she heard it, but now that Pei Yunying was close to him, Lu Zhuo suddenly felt it was real.
She looked at the person in front of her.
Pei Yunying was beautiful, with handsome features and handsome eyes. He looked handsome and noble at first glance, but because the pear dimples at the corners of his lips had a hint of youthfulness, he looked less reserved than those wealthy young men, and instead looked a little more... Very refreshing.
But no matter how refreshing he is, in Qiluocong, he is just an ordinary man.
I will also visit the flower house, look for girls, and touch the dancers.
Lu Zhen didn’t know what he wanted to do. After all, once a person really wants to be nasty, he can do anything.
Pei Yunying stared at her and suddenly smiled.
He said: "The girl Hongman in Yuxian Tower is more beautiful than Wu Ji, but in my opinion, among the thousands of flowers and willows, she is not as beautiful as Yi."
He held Lu Zhuo's arm with one hand and pulled her closer to him, her shadow reflected in his bright eyes: "We have known each other for a long time, it is too late to meet each other, why not let me see your face -"
After saying this, he raised his hand to pull Lu Zong's veil.
Lu Zhen was startled and stepped back suddenly. Although he seemed to be strong, he actually didn't use any force. Lu Zhuo immediately broke away from his hand and took a few steps back. His hairpins and silver jewelry jingled at the movement.
The tassels of the pearl veil gently brushed his hand, like a blue dancing shadow, flowing away from his fingertips.
Lu Zhen came back to his senses, understood something in an instant, and suddenly looked at the people in the room.
The rain was pouring outside the window and the wind was blowing loudly.
The lingering fragrance of the lamp in the house warms people, and the red fire shines on people.
The young man is sitting on a chair, with silver clouds forming on his black clothes. His smile is slightly warm under the light, as if he can't help laughing.
“Xiangxiang’s singing voice is clear and beautiful, and the green dance has long rhythm. A smile is rewarded with a thousand pieces of gold.”
He looked at Lu Huan and raised his eyebrows slightly.
“戈戈, what can you do?”
曈戈, who is useless at both singing and dancing: I will kill a child with one knife【Kill you.jpg】
