Lu You clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Well said, well said. Ladies and gentlemen, when you stepped into the Pillow Cloud Tower just now, did you see the dance that is rarely seen in your life?"
Xin Qiji said: "Yes, I saw it. This dance is really only in heaven. How many times can you see it in the world?"
"Where is that beauty?" Lu You smiled slyly.
The four people pointed at Yunniang and said in unison: "Far away in the horizon, close at hand."
Although Yunniang had guessed that they were going to talk about her, her cheeks flushed and she waved her hands and said: "Gentlemen, you are too kind."
Jiang Kui's face was stern: "Yunniang, we can't bear to be hypocritical. I know the Pillow Cloud Tower inside and out. If it weren't for your peerless dancing, how could I be willing to give you "Rainbow Skirt Feathered Coat". Zhong Ziqi died, Yu Boya was sad and smashed his zither. The broken jade zither was cold, who would play it for when Ziqi was gone! Friends are all full of spring breeze, and it is difficult to find a soulmate. If we didn't regard you as a soulmate, we wouldn't invite secular women."
Yunniang smiled and said: "After what Mr. Jing said, if I refuse again, it would be hypocritical."
Jiang Kui said: "That's right, come, come, come..."
Yunniang went to the kitchen to take out a pair of bowls and chopsticks and sat down.
Xin Qiji said to Yunniang with some regret: "Yunniang, we are discussing state affairs at today's banquet. Although it is forbidden and useless to discuss, we still have to discuss it. There will be more troublesome things, and there may be fewer leisurely and elegant things such as romance. Please forgive me for neglecting you."
Yunniang said: "Sir, you underestimated me. We in Zhenyun Tower are not the superficial people who 'take Hangzhou for Bianzhou'. If we were born a few decades earlier, we sisters would hope to be like Liang Hongyu and be good soldiers for our army. They beat drums to cheer and snipe Wanyan Zongbi on the Yangtze River.
Xin Qiji said: "The feelings of women are admirable, Yunniang, I toast you a cup."
Yunniang said: "Mr. Xin, since you are my confidant, my lifelong confidant, how can one cup be enough, at least three cups."
Xin Qiji suddenly felt heroic: "Okay, a thousand cups of wine are not enough when you meet a confidant, I will sacrifice my life to accompany you today."
Yunniang and Xin Qiji changed to a large cup and drank a cup in one breath without eating a bite of food in between. In a blink of an eye, they really drank three cups in a row.
The wine that has been stored for twenty years has lost its spicy taste, but the strength of the mellow wine is not small. In just a moment, Yunniang's face flushed, and a touch of rouge appeared on her face like white jade. At first glance, it makes people intoxicated.
Xin Qiji looked at the bright moon in the sky and sighed, "If only the flying general of Longcheng was here, the Hu horses would not be allowed to cross the Yinshan Mountains. These three bowls of wine have disturbed my sorrow."
Lu You said, "Brother Xin, are you thinking about the soldiers at the border again?"
"Yes, thinking about them living and dying in the border areas, facing the cruel, warlike and greedy Jin people every day, although there are delicacies and fine wines in front of them, they taste like chewing wax."
Jiang Kui said, "Yes, it's almost time for another battle. When it came time to pay 250,000 taels of silver and 250,000 rolls of silk to the Kingdom of Jin, the common people were having a hard time.
Liu Yixian said: "It's a pity that these corrupt officials dared to take advantage of this opportunity to plunder the common people. How can the common people live like this?"
"The civil officials don't love money, and the military generals don't hesitate to die. Only then can the world be peaceful. Looking at the officialdom today, how many people can do this?"
San Shao Long Yi: The work has been too tight these two days. There are so many things to do. I only posted one paragraph in the past week. Please see what I have done.
