Chapter 34 Chunhui Pavilion
After a while, he came to the gate of Zengjiazhuang. Seeing this, the gatekeeper Su Hun and Feng Haotian immediately sent a guard to send a message to Zeng Hong. Just when everyone was guessing what attitude Zeng Hong would appear, Zeng Qiao and Yun Zhengting came. Everyone cheered and congratulated Yun Zhengting. Yun Zhengting thanked one by one, and said, "It's great that everyone can take the initiative to come to Zengjiazhuang. I'm worried about how to persuade you to come here." But when Zeng Qiao looked rosy and her face was full of spring breeze, she looked even more enlightened.
Chu was moved. Zeng Qiao walked up to the chair being held, looked at Xie Ruying, and smiled and said, "I see that Sister Ying is unparalleled in beauty, and is the most beautiful among the sisters in Zengjiazhuang." Xie Ruying said lightly, "What do you have to do with Zengjiazhuang? Miss Zeng Er is better not to talk nonsense." Zeng Qiao was stunned, and Yun Zhengting hurriedly said, "Don't stand here to talk first, I'll take you to your place to live." So Yun Zhengting invited everyone to the village, and went all the way to "Chunhui Pavilion".
Yun Zhengting led everyone into Chunhui Pavilion, and saw that it was completely refreshed, the pavilions and towers were exquisite and elegant, with more than ten rooms in the wing room, and the doors were brand new, and it seemed that no one had lived in before, or had just been renovated. Yun Zhengting said, "Miss Ying, Chunhui Pavilion is your boudoir courtyard. All your friends can live here, and if it is inconvenient, you can also go to Liushui Pavilion." Xie Ruying looked at everyone and said, "Thank you, Brother Yun. I think my friends should all like to live here with me." Everyone laughed and nodded. Yun Zhengting said, "That's great." Zhuo Chengfei said, "Brother Yun, you should not be able to arrange all of this, right?" Yun Zhengting smiled and said, "No matter who it is."
The arrangements are the same. Just stay here with peace of mind, and let the other things beside you for the time being." Guo Rong said, "Brother Yun, have you moved into Zengjiazhuang too?" Yun Zhengting said, "Not yet. After the wedding, you will move in. Will you wait for Yun to move in? If you have time, come to drink with everyone every day. Hahaha!" Zhuo Chengfei said, "That's a matter of determination!" Zeng Qiao smiled faintly and said to Yun Zhengting, "Brother Yun, let's go and do our own business." Then, he said, "Everyone clean up first, and when you have time, I will visit you again." After Yun Zhengting said goodbye to everyone, he and Zeng Qiao left Chunhui Pavilion.
The two servants who carried Xie Ruying back to Zengjiazhuang followed the Chunhui Pavilion to serve everyone, and there were two maids. Chunhui Pavilion, like other pavilions, had everything. There were ten rooms in the wing rooms, each with a room. Fish pond and pavilion. After everything was arranged, Guo Rong, Yan Fang and Wei brothers gathered in the pavilion in the back garden to discuss matters.
Wei Xiaopeng said, "Now that it's close, it depends on how we make a big fuss in Zengjiazhuang." Guo Rong said, "I don't think it's that easy. Before, my senior sister and I went to Zengjiazhuang, Wen Siyang has been on guard. Although we moved in and out of Miss Xie this time, we must be able to move in because of the face of Miss Xie, we will definitely not be less prepared." Wei Xiaopeng said, "I think Brother Guo and I have the best light skills here, but it's not as good as... Haha..." He and Guo Rong looked at each other, and they laughed proudly.
Suddenly, Yan Fang said, "Haven Zhuo, have you and Sister Xie arranged it well?" Everyone heard Zhuo Chengfei approaching, so they stopped talking. Zhuo Chengfei said, "There is nothing to arrange, just lean on the bed to rest. The junior sister asked me to come down to thank you." Yan Fang said, "Why do you have to thank you? We are like a family now, why should we see you?" The other three people said this. Zhuo Chengfei said, "The thing to thank you is still behind. I think you all know that the junior sister will definitely take revenge, and there will definitely be some trouble for everyone in the future. The junior sister also said, before she recovers, it is best for everyone to enjoy here and not to alert the snake." Yan Fang said, "That's right, we understand." After Zhuo Chengfei said, he left alone.
Wei Xiaopeng said: "It seems we must act carefully." Everyone nodded, no longer spoke, but just thought about it in their minds.
After drinking tea and snacks for a while, I felt bored. Wei Xiaopeng said, "Come on, otherwise it would be boring for the four of us to sit. Why not come and practice martial arts?" Guo Rong said, "It's so good." So Guo Rong and Wei Xiaopeng first discussed.
Yan Fang and Wei Xiaojuan looked at them both light and elegant, and thought that although the scene was good, it was not intense. Yan Fang said, "Stop, let's hear the opinions of our two audiences." The two stopped immediately, Yan Fang said, "Miss Wei, tell me." Wei Xiaojuan said, "Like a sparrow, chirping, it looks lively, but it is just a few rice pecking." When Yan Fang heard this, she burst out all the tea in her mouth with a "puff" sound, which made everyone laugh. Guo Rong said, "Miss Wei said it very well. It's better to rest, and you come and have a discussion with me." Wei Xiaojuan said, "A good girl won't fight with a man." After hearing this, everyone laughed louder.
"What are you laughing?" Suddenly, a voice woke up the four of them. When he turned around, it turned out that Zeng Jia was standing by the pavilion and was looking at Yan Fang. When did he arrive, no one noticed it. Yan Fang said, "Third Master, why are you here?" Zeng Jia said, "Miss Yan, you didn't come to me when you arrive in the mansion? Fortunately, you ran into the second sister. She told me that she knew it, so she rushed to see you in a hurry." Yan Fang said, "We have just settled down, but I didn't expect you to come. Is there anything to ask me?" Zeng Jia said, "There is nothing special, I just want to see you." Everyone asked him to sit in the pavilion and introduced the Wei brothers and sisters.
Guo Rong asked, "San Young Master, how are the third lady now?" Zeng Jia said, "I don't have time to care about the third sister, I'm annoyed enough." Guo Rong was very disappointed after hearing this, and Yan Fang said, "Junior brother, if you want to visit the third lady, go to Xique Pavilion. Now that we live here, we can naturally walk around." Guo Rong was overjoyed and looked at everyone embarrassedly, saying, "Anyway, it's boring, I'll walk around. Let's talk slowly here.
.” After saying that, he quickly went to the gate of Chunhui Pavilion. He happened to see Zhao Qingshan and Zhao Qingsong brothers guarding the door of Chunhui Pavilion. When he saw Guo Rong hurriedly greeted him with a smile. Guo Rong asked, "Why are you here?" Zhao Qingshan said, "The Third Young Master asked us to follow him to do business." Guo Rong understood and immediately said to Zeng Jia: "Three Young Master, can you borrow Zhao Qingsong to lead the way?" Zeng Jia naturally agreed readily. Guo Rong asked Zhao Qingsong to lead the way to Xique Pavilion.
After leaving Chunhui Pavilion, he walked west through the corridor. Suddenly, a person in front of him blocked the way and looked closely. It turned out to be Wen Siyang. Wen Siyang looked at Guo Rong and asked, "Mr. Guo, where are you in such a hurry?" Guo Rong said, "Young Family Village is under your jurisdiction, but you can't take care of other places." Wen Siyang smiled and said, "My wife Wen just wanted to tell you that the third lady is not in Xique Pavilion. I went to the Second Concubine Temple in Junshan this morning to worship the gods, but I haven't returned yet. If you want to meet the Third Concubine Temple, you can go to the Second Concubine Temple. The Third Concubine Temple had been going to the Second Concubine Temple for a few days before." Guo Rong said, "Er
Where is the Concubine Temple?" Wen Siyang said: "The old lady likes quietness, so the master built a Second Concubine Temple in Junshan. In the past, when the old lady was in good health, she often took her own sister, the third lady's biological mother, the fourth wife, to the Second Concubine Temple to worship the gods, and lived for a few days and a half months. Later, the fourth wife died of illness, and the third lady liked to go there to worship the gods. The young lady's house was a rough man like Wen, who couldn't understand." After saying that, he left. Guo Rong stood there, thought for a while, and asked Zhao Qingsong to lead the way to the gate of Zengjiazhuang.
On the way, Guo Rong asked about Zeng Ling, but Zhao Qingsong didn't know anything. Guo Rong could only sigh.
After leaving the gate, he came to the dock. Two ships happened to be docked on the dock. Zhao Qingsong immediately found one of the smaller ships and said, "Young Master Guo, the boat trots fast." Guo Rong immediately jumped up. After Zhao Qingsong got on the boat, he immediately rode the boat to Junshan.
Guo Rong was thinking in his heart on the boat: What would it be like to see Zeng Ling? Hearing himself calling her name, how would it be so beautiful when he looked back and smiled at that moment! Or, she was playing the guzheng, and she could hear quiet music in a distant place, and even her intoxicating voice, singing Zeng Qiao's new work. The beauty of the jade finger gently stroked the strings, and the expression of lowering her head and frowning were enough to stop time. Guo Rong was both excited and happy, and had never felt this way.
When the boat reached Junshan Wharf, Guo Rong immediately jumped off the boat and said, "Qingsong, you can wait for me at the wharf or on the boat." Zhao Qingsong naturally stayed on the boat. Guo Rong used his light skills and climbed up the steps, and the scenery on the roadside had become blank. He climbed over a valley and looked up. A corner of the roof was exposed on the top of the mountain in front. Guo Rong was overjoyed and guessed that it should be the Second Concubine Temple. He continued running all the way, and in the blink of an eye he saw the temple with carved beams and painted buildings, with three golden words "Er Concubine Temple" written on the lintel.
Guo Rong calmed down at this time, held his breath, and stepped into the temple gently. He happened to meet a nun cleaning the temple's belongings. But he saw the incense in the temple, and the statue of the second concubine stood above the temple and stared at the front. Guo Rong asked, "Master, can the third lady in the temple?" The nun clasped and said, "Donor, the third lady is in the backyard." After Guo Rong asked clearly, he walked directly through the temple, passed the garden, and came to a row of wing rooms. Seeing that the doors of each wing were closed, he walked around the wing room and saw a pavilion behind the wing room, standing on the edge of the cliff. There was a woman in white in the pavilion. The corners of the clothes fluttered in the breeze, which further highlighted her slim figure. It was Zeng Ling, who leaned against the pillars of the pavilion, seemed to be pondering.
Guo Rong slowly approached, Zeng Ling had not noticed it. Guo Rong had already walked into the pavilion and saw her frowning, as if she was still crying. Looking along with her eyes, she saw lush bamboos under the pavilion, and spitting out new buds. Guo Rong squatted down and said softly, "Miss Three." Zeng Ling woke up suddenly, looked at Guo Rong beside him, surprised and happy, and said, "Mr. Guo Rong, why is it you?" Guo Rong said, "How could it be me? What are you thinking? Why are you sad as you think?" Zeng Ling smiled with tears and said, "How could I be sad? I am just thinking about something." Guo Rong asked, "What do I think of the third lady in Zengjiazhuang be so specialized
My heart was filled with tears?" Zeng Ling wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "I don't want to do now. What are you doing?" Guo Rong said, "I heard that there is a Second Concubine Temple on Junshan, so I come to worship him." Zeng Ling smiled and said, "Then have you worshipped?" Guo Rong said, "I sensed that there is a fairy behind the temple, so I come to worship the fairy first." Zeng Ling laughed happily by him and said, "Why don't you go to worship the second concubine after seeing the fairy?" Guo Rong said, "If there are fairies to visit with you, it will be more effective." Zeng Ling stood up and said, "Let's go." Guo Rong followed Zeng Ling and watched her walk with her Yingying, and was really happy. The two walked towards the temple.
Visiting and burning incense, Guo Rong felt indescribable and joyful when he saw Zeng Ling standing beside him. After that, Zeng Ling wanted to take Guo Rong around and take a look. So, the two left the Second Concubine Temple and walked along the mountain road to the bamboo forest below the pavilion. Looking at the spotted bamboo, Zeng Ling asked, "Young Master Guo, do you know the story of 'The Second Concubine, Banzhu'?" Guo Rong shook his head and said, "Why tell me." Zeng Ling said, "Come, I'll take you to see." As he said, he led the way to a tombstone next to the bamboo forest. But he saw a couplet on the tombstone: "The two souls of the king and concubine are fragrant forever, and the mangosteen tears are all alone."
Guo Rong asked about the reason, but Zeng Ling slowly said: "It is said that Yu Shun went on a southern tour but failed to collapse in Cangwu. His two beloved concubines, Ehuang and Niaoying, did not know that their husbands were dead. Seeing that they had not returned for a long time, they went all the way to find their husbands here. Suddenly, they heard the bad news that Yu Shun had died, and they were extremely sad, so they climbed the bamboos and cried bitterly. Because tears and blood were dripping on these bamboos, they turned into spotted bamboos. The two concubines were buried here because of their grief. Later generations erected this monument to miss the love of the two concubines."
After hearing this, Guo Rong said, "So that's it. I didn't go to the Second Concubine Temple and Banzhu, there was such a moving story." Zeng Ling continued, "It seems to be a moving story to others, but when I am in it, I feel miserable. I miss my mother and my mother marry into Zengjiazhuang with my sister and later become the fourth wife. Everyone envies me. However, when I was born, I felt the cold, so I have been weak and sick. My mother and aunt are both people who value love and righteousness, and are also grateful for the moving story of the Second Concubine, so I asked my father to build this Second Concubine Temple on Junshan and next to the tomb of the Second Concubine. One is to show the feelings of our ancestors, and the other is to give herself a place to support me." Zeng Ling looked back at the Second Concubine Temple and said, "It's a pity that my mother has already traveled to immortals, leaving me alone here alone. Now... now..." Zeng Ling burst into tears, her voice choked, and she couldn't continue to say it.
Guo Rong hurriedly held her arms, felt her trembling body slightly, and felt sad in his heart. Guo Rong said, "Miss Three, it's meaningless to be too sad. If you know in the spring of the hall, I will definitely hope you can be happy." Zeng Ling said, "If my mother is still there, I will never let my father make a decision." Guo Rong asked in surprise: "What kind of advice?" Zeng Ling was already crying after hearing this. Guo Rong gently wiped the corners of her eyes and tears on her face with her sleeves, and said, "Tell me, what kind of advice Mr. Zeng makes a decision? I will definitely help you.
"Zeng Ling said: "In that daily performance of Desi strings, there was a man who was escorting an escort, who was the escort at the Northern Feilong Escort Agency. It would be fine if he watched the performance, but he actually went back to say to their young master. The young master was ungrateful and asked his father to come to propose marriage. The person who proposed marriage arrived at Zengjiazhuang early this morning. His father warmly treated him and agreed to the marriage. He agreed without asking me the intention. If my mother was still there, she would never let her father do whatever she wanted and point to the couple. "
After hearing this, Guo Rong had already understood what was going on. He was like a blow, but he was calm on the surface and said lightly: "Miss Three, although I don't know what kind of escort agency is, I can directly agree to Zengjiazhuang. Master Zeng is definitely not an ordinary escort agency." Zeng Ling said: "I don't know anything about the world. I heard from my elder brother-in-law that there are two major escort agencies today, and people in the Jianghu are called "North and South Escort Agency". The Beiwei Escort Agency is called Feilong Escort Agency.
The one who is dear is the young leader of the Feilong Escort Agency." Guo Rong said: "No wonder. Mr. Zeng would definitely not marry his daughter to the young master of the unknown escort agency. He could marry the young leader of one of the two major escort agencies in the world. Then Zengjiazhuang will have greater power in the future. Since it is such a good marriage, why do you cry instead?" Zeng Ling looked at Guo Rong, wanting to speak but stopping. Guo Rong saw everything, and she also said something, but she didn't know how to speak.
Zeng Ling sighed and continued to walk forward. Guo Rong grabbed her delicate hand from behind. Zeng Ling turned around and looked at Guo Rong with tears in her eyes. When the love was deep, Guo Rong's eyes were full of warmth and said, "Miss, why not play a song at this time?" Zeng Ling smiled with tears, just like pear blossoms with rain, and said, "The Guzheng is in the wing room of the Second Concubine Temple, then let's go back." Let Guo Rong hold hands, and the two walked back to the Second Concubine Temple. Along the way, both of them were silent. But from the grip
In the hands, they could feel the other person's body temperature, and they seemed to be able to read what they wanted to say. Both of them hoped to keep going like this, walking on the endless road, and they kept walking hand in hand, life was enough. But they soon passed through the Second Concubine Temple and came to the wing room behind the temple. They took out the guzheng from the third wing room and came to the pavilion together. Guo Rong took out the worry-free flute he carried with him and said, "How about listening to me first?" Zeng Ling smiled and nodded, as if she agreed.
Guo Rong played alone, and the music was slowly and smooth, like the spring breeze coming, swaying her clothes. Like the autumn moon shining, urging people's hearts. Suddenly, Zeng Ling seemed to understand his tune, and she couldn't help but play it with the rhythm. The sound of the piano and the flute were harmonious, just like brushing the cool face, making people forget the troubles of time. Guo Rong put down the worry-free flute and sang: "I will never miss you in my life, but I will miss you. The body is like floating clouds, the heart is like flying catkins, and the air is like wandering silk, and a wisp of fragrance in the air is here, and I hope that a wandering child will be wandering? When is the sign of the symptom? When is the light half dim and the moon is half bright."
After chanting, the two of them looked at each other, with infinite tenderness. Thousands of words in their hearts have been expressed one by one.
After a long time, Zeng Ling said, "Mr. Guo, listen to my song." Zeng Ling pondered for a moment, pursed her lips and plucked the strings of the piano, her frown was about to spread, and the endless spring light was endless. After a while, Guo Rong had already understood the profound meaning and played the worry-free flute and tune with the sound of the piano. This time the piano sound was like a bird singing and the wind playing music. The flute sound was like a river and a stream flowing slowly, and the falling flowers flowed eastward with the flowing water.
When the love reaches deeper, Zeng Ling sang: "Water slapped the shallow shore, clouds and dramatic towers, fragrant bamboos are in secluded. The fragrant tomb is still there, where is the agreement, and lovesickness is hard to stop. If you want to express your love, the water is wide and the mountains are long, and you will be separated by three autumns. You should stay with you, drink rain and eat dew, and forget your family's sorrow."
After Zeng Ling finished chanting, Guo Rong also stopped. Zeng Ling said, "This song was written by my second sister when she was with me in the Second Concubine Temple. I used to be sad, but now I can finally fully understand the meaning. I want my second sister and Brother Yun to know each other, but because of the family background, I cannot live together. Now lovers are finally married, how beautiful." Guo Rong said, "Three Miss, I am not like Brother Yun, who puts the people of Dongting Lake first. In my heart, you will be the only one from now on. As long as I can be with you, even at the ends of the earth, the sea of fire and swords, I will have no regrets." The two looked at each other again, and their true feelings were revealed, staring at each other, and everything was indifferent.
