Chapter 37

Tuoba Zhi dismounts and talks with the young man enthusiastically. Looking back, he points to the carriage that Murong Zhining is sitting in and takes the young man to the carriage.

Tuoba then pulled up the curtain of the carriage, helped Murong Zhining out, and said, "this is Miss Murong, the surname of Nanjin people. I have the honor to go back to Nanjin with Miss Murong. " The prince of royal guards made a series: "I have met Miss Murong in liankun." Murong Zhining replied: "I've heard from you for a long time. I'm going to pester you for two days Lian Kun replied boldly, "it's my pleasure to receive such a distinguished guest as Miss Murong. The shelter is right in front. Miss Murong, please. "

Tuoba LAN jumped out of the car and shouted, "even when my brother saw sister Murong, he ignored Lan'er?" Even Kun smiled, "Oh, my sister is coming. Please hurry up."

Lian Kun and Tuoba Zhi walk in front of each other. They talk as they walk. Tuoba LAN takes Murong Zhining's hand and looks around. A group of people soon arrived at the front of a large courtyard. There was a huge plaque on the door, which read "zicui garden". The courtyard is red brick and green tile, with the Zhumen of Douyan, in front of which stand two big stone lions with extraordinary momentum. Two rows of servants stood respectfully on both sides of the gate and welcomed them into the courtyard.

The yard is very spacious, with all kinds of strange flowers and plants. A neat row of bluestone paths leads to the hall in the yard. A charming and well-dressed woman came out, and Lian Kun put his arms around her and said, "this is my new five ladies." As a housemaid had already informed her, Mrs. five made a gesture of asking directly: "Mr. Tuoba, Miss Tuoba, Miss Murong, please come in." Tuoba laughed and joked: "I said that brother Lian didn't want to stay in the prosperous place of the capital. He used to be a treasure house in this quiet place." They look at each other and laugh.

In the hall, there are four eight immortal chairs on the left and right respectively. Beside each chair, there are tea tables with seasonal fruits and delicate snacks. Mrs. Wu is very sensible and sensible: "my husband and I will accompany the distinguished guests to have a rest first, and I will go down to supervise the cooking in the kitchen, so as not to neglect the guests." Tuoba to boxing: "thank you, sister-in-law, sister-in-law if you have something to do."

Tuoba talks with Lian Kun excitedly, but Lian Kun's soul is broken. His eyes occasionally glance at Murong Zhining.

Murong Zhining looks around at the calligraphy and painting on the wall in the hall, approaches a landscape painting and stops to watch it. Tuoba blue peeled an orange and sent it to Murong Zhining's hand: "what is elder sister looking at?" Murong Zhining stared at the painting on the wall: "this is Mr. Yan Liben's new snow map of the river and mountains. I didn't expect that liangongzi's house could collect such a good painting."

Lian Kun strolled to the painting, but a pair of eyes lingered on Murong Zhining's face: "Miss Murong is very knowledgeable, but this one is a fake. Someone owes me a lot of money and can't pay it back. I'm deceived to say it's Yan Liben's real work, but I don't have much vision. Alas! "

Murong Zhining put her face close to the painting, looked at the signing and the inscription carefully, and looked at the half column incense time: "congratulations to Lian Gongzi, this painting is indeed the real work of Yan Liben. Come and have a look."

Tuobazhi also came here with interest. Murong Zhining pointed to the inscription on the painting and said: "this is the authentic Yan style. Most of the inscription in Yan Liben's calligraphy and painting are in seal script. However, the regular script in this painting is influenced by his writing habits. It is very smooth when the pen is closed, which many imitators fail to notice. You see, I heard a master of painting appreciation said that Mr. Yan has a strange habit of using ink to press a finger mold on each painting. Of course, the hidden position of the finger pattern of each painting is different. "

Tuoba Zhi and Lian Kun are learning from Murong Zhining's appearance. They look closely at the picture. Sure enough, between the two pines, there is a ink pattern that is very similar to the pattern of fingers and gongs. Murong as like as two peas, he continued to point to a circular seal on the painting. "I have seen other genuine works of Mr. Yan, and I remember all the worn spots on the seal, exactly like this seal."

Even Kun's and Tuoba's eyes were shining at the same time. Both of them looked at Murong Zhining as if they were appreciating a treasure. Murong Zhining then shook her head: "unfortunately, you can see the postscript on these mediocre people. It's like a dog's tail and a sable's tail. It almost destroys this good painting. The value of this painting may be reduced by these inscriptions and postscripts, but it is still a good collection. "

Even kunchong Murong Zhining made a gift: "Miss Murong is very knowledgeable. I'm impressed. If Miss Murong didn't remind me, I would really be a fake." Murong Zhining still looked at the painting and said, "I'm flattered. I don't dare to be."

Lian Kun pulled Tuoba Zhi to one side: "where did brother Tuoba get such a beautiful little lady from, and she is still so knowledgeable? Why don't I have your luck? How about giving her to her brother? " Tuoba gave him a look: "what do you think others are? You want it? She's not a girl of the average family. Don't make a mistake. "

Lian Kun looks at Murong Zhining again: "as long as it's not your elder brother's woman, how can I not think about it? I'm also a young man with a jade tree in front of the wind. " Tuoba hit him on the chest: "don't make up your mind." Lian Kun sighed: "Alas! All the good things are picked up by you. "

Mrs. five twisted her waist and stepped into the hall: "my husband, I've got the dishes ready. Please go to the left room for dinner." Lian Kun politely led the three people to the left room behind the hall: "Xingzhou is a small place, incomparable with the capital city, and there is no specialty except orange. I'm just another hospital here. I don't have anything good to entertain you. Please forgive me, brother Tuoba and miss Murong. " Tuo Ba LAN gave him a curl of his mouth: "isn't Xingzhou still producing such a beauty as a little sister-in-law?" Lian Kun smiled awkwardly.Tuoba Zhi took a look at the dishes on the table and sighed: "brother Lian's table is comparable to the state banquet. It seems that I will stay here for a long time." A group of people were eating with a smile, and aunt Wu was too clever to find an excuse to leave. She knows the rules very well. She knows that the concubine can't go to the table with the guests.

During the dinner, Lian Kun had been courteously persuading the food and wine: "here, this is the local crab. This season is the most creamy and fat. Please, Murong girl." His eyes have been on Murong Zhining, reluctant to move.

Tuoba LAN takes food in his mouth and stares at Lian Kun: "how long have you been married to my sister-in-law?" Lian Kun smiled sheepishly: "she said she was a little sister-in-law, but she didn't go through the door. She's from a bad family. I can only raise her here first. "

Tuoba shouted, "Lan'er, do you have some rules?" Tuoba blue pouted: "I'll ask about it. What's the matter? There are so many little sisters in law at home. They still stare at their sisters. " Murong Zhining gently pulled her on the table: "the little sister-in-law is so beautiful that even the young master can't pass the beauty pass. I don't think there's anything wrong with it. Being in love is more important than anything. " Lian Kun smiled awkwardly and said, "Miss Murong is really understanding."

After dinner, Lian Kun came up with an idea: "brother Tuoba and miss Murong seldom come here. How about I take you to have some fun tonight?" Tuoba Zhi takes a look at Murong Zhining: "as long as Miss Murong is not in danger, she is willing to go, all right." Murong Zhining smiled: "how dare I sweep the happiness of the two childs?"

Tuoba blue pouted: "Alas! Do you two men think I don't exist? Don't even ask me? " Lian Kun smiles all over his face: "I love my sister Lan'er the most. Don't I just want to ask you?" Tuoba gave him a blue and white look: "then where do you want to take us to play?"

Lian Kun said with a bad smile: "of course, I'll take you to play what you haven't played before." He whispered to Tuoba. Tuoba's face was embarrassed. Lian Kun gave him a push: "let me tell Miss Murong. This Xingzhou has a good reputation of xiaoqinhuai, and there are many taverns and song houses. It's said that the most famous Qixiang hall has a group of Persian dancers and some girls who play the piano very well. I'd like to see them for a long time, but I'm not interested in anyone. Why don't you take advantage of the large number of people tonight, Miss Murong and her sister to disguise themselves and go to have a look at the bustle? "

Tuobalan is a lively master, clapping his hands immediately. Murong Zhining said: "since you are so happy, how can I sweep your happiness?" Tuoba told Lian Kun, "ask more servants to follow you to ensure the safety of Murong girl."

At the gate of Qixiang courtyard, there came four elegant young men in noble clothes. A well-dressed middle-aged woman, with a smile on her face, welcomed them into the courtyard and shouted, "girls, here comes the distinguished guest!"

The middle-aged woman looked straight at Lian Kun and smiled, "you have not come to our Qixiang building for a long time. Marry us Jiaolan, and you will be firmly controlled, right?" Lian Kun said with a smile: "mother Wu teases me again. Please arrange a good place for me. My guests want to watch the song and dance." Wu's mother asked people to lead them to a room with a terrace upstairs. There is a round structure bar under the terrace. On the terrace, you can have a panoramic view of the scenery downstairs.

Tuoba said in an open voice: "so my little sister-in-law went out here? No wonder Even my brother dare not go back to the capital. " Murong Zhining pinches Tuoba Blue's leg with her hand, and Tuoba blue cries out in pain. Lian Kun touched the back of his head and smiled: "no problem, let her talk. My sister is just a child. " Tuoba Zhi also glared at Tuoba blue.

There was a unique western music downstairs, and four people walked to the terrace and sat down. There is a round table in the middle of the terrace with melon seeds, cold fruits, tea, wine and snacks. In the round bar under the terrace, four wave dancers with curly black hair and big eyes with high nose are wearing transparent veils, brassieres covered with gold films, and their waists are wriggling.

The bells on the dancers' skirts "jingle" because of the shaking of their bodies, which made the whole room full of men exclaim. Tuoba blue shook his head and sighed: "how dare you say that these dancers are so bold and dare to wear so little to meet people? If I let my father see me, I'm sure I'll swear and be shameless. " Tuoba covered his mouth and smiled.

Murong Zhining tasted the tea and commented elegantly: "I've only heard of it, but I haven't seen it. Today, it's really an eye opener. It's said that in their country, it's nothing to wear like this. The customs are different in different places. I can accept it. It's very beautiful. " Tuoba Zhi takes a meaningful look at Murong Zhining. He really appreciates the open-minded character of Murong Zhining.
