Chapter 137 Taste and Sound

He looked up at the curtain in front of the side hall every time he drank, but he never saw the squeaky skirt again.

For a moment, Guo Shao was inexplicably a little lost.

At this moment, the servant changed into a glass pot and then a crystal glass cup. When Guo Shao looked at it, he saw that the glass container was translucent, not as transparent as the glass container, but more delicate and delicate; it contained purple liquid.

"Made from Qingzhou grapes." Fu Yanqing smiled.

King Wei's hair was gray and his face was covered with age spots. However, his face was very upright and his conversation and laughing were quite elegant. It was really not comparable to ordinary people who could still have such elegant and interesting atmosphere at this age.

Guo Shao praised: "Grape wine, you can get a luminous cup."

Fu Yanqing immediately continued, "I want to drink the pipa and urge me immediately..." Guo Shao cooperated and said, "Don't laugh if you lie drunk on the battlefield."

Fu Yanqing smiled, and suddenly showed a little vicissitudes on her face. Her expression became very complicated for a moment. Finally, she sighed: "How many people have returned from fighting in ancient times!"

The two looked at each other and laughed. Guo Shao thought to himself: I thought that a person like Fu Yanqing would not have any sequelae of war, but at this time he felt that the old man might have some unknown sighs in his heart.

But to a certain extent, although this poem from ancient times seems chic, it is actually sad. Guo Shao prefers the determination of "The yellow sand is wearing golden armor after a hundred battles, and will never return until it is broken," which will make it more passionate.

"Doduo..." The maid's simple hands gently filled the two glass cups. Guo Shao gently brushed the sleeves of the robe with his right hand, raised the glass cups with both hands and said, "I respect King Wei."

"Okay, okay." Fu Yanqing raised his glass.

Guo Shao was about to do it first, but suddenly heard Fu Yanqing say, "I am not afraid of the guests being angry. I usually don't treat this wine to the guests. Because it's too little, it's brewed by the second daughter's mother..."

The glass cup in Guo Shao's hand paused on his lips and smelled a refreshing fragrance of fruit wine. Only then did he look carefully and saw that the wine sauce was crystal clear in the cup, pure in the color, and very wonderful.

He took a sip and the cool and smooth wine slid along the tip of his tongue, along the tongue coating, and into his throat until his heart.

This wine is not a taste. It has three flavors of sweet, astringent and sour intertwined, and they are integrated into a strange taste... It is obviously completely different taste, but naturally mixed together makes people feel that they should be a taste. Guo Shao saw a graceful and beautiful woman in a trance, with her jade white hands gently stirring in the grape juice... Spring is in full bloom, and the world is full of flowers.

The wine of a beautiful dream can make people full of all kinds of reverie.

According to previous experiences, some wines cost tens of thousands per bottle. But if someone takes a bottle of expensive wine and wants to exchange it with the glass of wine in Guo Shao's hand, he will definitely refuse.

At this moment, Guo Shao suddenly found Fu Yanqing looking at his face with a smile, and suddenly realized that he had just become intoxicated in front of his master as if no one was around. He was not careful and his face turned slightly red, and he felt very embarrassed.

Guo Shao drank it all and pretended to be nothing, and asked, "Is this wine really good to brew, so what's the recipe?"

Fu Yanqing smiled and said, "It is to choose the fruit and squeeze the juice out, filter it, then put it in the jar and buried it under the flower tree. You can drink it in a few years. You can make it every year, so you will naturally have to drink it every year. I don't know much about how it is made."

Guo Shao asked: "Can it turn into a fine wine? Haven't any ingredients been added?"

"What should I add to the wine?" Fu Yanqing asked him instead.

Guo Shao couldn't answer, so he had to praise him again. But although the guests who were sitting there were also good wine, they did not have the grape wine brewed by Fu Erniang himself.

At this time, Fu Yanqing gently slapped his palms, and as soon as the sound fell, the sound of silk and bamboo suddenly sounded. Guo Shao suddenly thought that Fu Yanqing had installed high-tech similar to voice-controlled lights in the house.

In the music, a group of women wearing bright clothes entered the hall. The lotus steps swayed in the middle of the ring, and their long sleeves covered their faces. They stood in two rows facing the seat, as if they were floating. Then the women shook their long sleeves and showed their faces, smiling and dancing their graceful figures in the melody of the silk and bamboo orchestra.

It was snowy outside, but the women in the hall were thin, but fortunately there was charcoal fire.

Guo Shao pretended to be interested and accompanied Fu Yanqing to watch, and from time to time he persuaded him to have a glass of wine. He was actually a person who liked beauties very much, but for some reason, he always felt that these young women seemed to be short of something.

Fu Yanqing watched for a while, then left her seat and wanted to go in for a while. The maid came forward to help him, but Guo Shao hurriedly helped Fu Yanqing up himself as if he was attentive, and then took the opportunity to follow him to the side hall.

The woman who was wearing a long skirt inside just now must be gone. However, Guo Shao followed up to ask Fu Yanqing for something. He weighed it and saw that Fu Yanqing still valued him very much, so he should consider something he wanted to ask him for something.

The maid helped Fu Yanqing sit down on a chair, and Fu Yanqing also called out: "Sit, General Guo, please sit down."

Guo Shao was more direct and said directly: "We shouldn't have troubled King Wei, but there is something that really requires asking King Wei to take action before we can count on it."

"Oh? General Guo, but it's okay." Fu Yanqing said.

Guo Shao told the truth. He would not say anything that he would not ask for help, but he seldom took the initiative to ask for help. He would only speak unless he thought it was necessary and that matter was important and could not do it himself. He would never want to rely on others for everything.

He said, "I have a friend named Dong Zunxun. His mother's surname is Gao. Unfortunately, she was trapped in Youzhou during the war. Now Youzhou is a Khitan, and it will be very difficult to find it back... Mrs. Gao knew where she lived before, but she didn't know where she is now. King Wei made a lot of friends in Hebei. I wonder if anyone knows who are more familiar with Youzhou and have a way?"

Guo Shao thought this matter was difficult to deal with. After all, Gao Huaide and Dong Zunxun were both senior generals and they still had a lot of people in their hands. They had no choice, so this matter must not be that simple.

Unexpectedly, Fu Yanqing stroked his palm and said, "It's easy to know where to live in the past. Last year, a Khitan general from Youzhou came to join me and had some Han soldiers under him. This man had been in Youzhou since Shi Jingtang led the Khitan south, and asked him to find people, and most of them would be able to see them."

Guo Shao was immediately happy and stood up and said, "King Wei has helped a lot."

"Don't thank you first, the matter has not been completed yet." Fu Yanqing smiled, "By the way, what is the name of the Khitan general? The surname is Xiao. I forgot what he is called last year."

Guo Shao hurriedly said, "When King Wei sent the command of General Xiao, I will send two people to go with him."

Fu Yanqing agreed, "That's good. General Guo stayed in Daming City for a few more days and waited for the news. You live in the royal palace. The ceremony hall outside the palace is for guests, but not for friends."

Guo Shao thanked him. Sure enough, King Wei did not mention the marriage at all, although he was already affectionately called a friend. Guo Shao also remembered Zuo You's reminder and did not mention it at all.

It was another dinner in the evening, and the wine and meat were very rich. Even the generals and staff who came with Guo Shao were invited. There were many guests accompanying him and praised Guo Shao many times. But Fu Yanqing also just appeared and left the seat soon. The old man seemed not very fond of greasy food and did not like to make noise.

Guo Shao was drunk and was helped to a room in the royal palace to rest without telling anything. The women wanted to serve him and take a bath. He felt that it was a bit unruly and unruly at the home where he might become his father-in-law, which dispersed the women.

After taking a shower and changing his clothes, he vaguely heard a sound of a pipa from the north, so he put on a fur cloak and walked to the door to listen. There was a slave in the mansion next to him. He thought he had drunk too much and had hallucinations, so he asked, "Did you hear the sound of playing the pipa?"

A little girl replied, "I heard that it was the second lady who was shooting."

After hearing this, he stopped and listened for a long time. It seemed a little far away and the voice was very soft.

Guo Shao knew nothing about classical music and didn't know what song he could play. If he was very skilled in pulling the bow strings, the strings of the instrument would be confused. But he still listened carefully. When he calmed down, he felt that there was an indescribable elegance in the pearl-like sound, as if there was a beautiful woman in a light dress, holding the pipa in her arms, expressing her gentle affection. It was clear, gentle, and long...

"It sounds so nice." Guo Shao sighed.

This evening, the outer hall was so noisy and joyful, and the entire Daming City was also several rich and prosperous places in Hebei. But in such a city, in such a rich family, there was a quiet woman hidden... contented with loneliness, quietness and loneliness, hidden in the boudoir for twenty-three years and never showed her to others.

In this wonderful sound of the pipa, Guo Shao had high expectations for Mr. Fu. Queen Fu was a fairy-like woman with temperament, knowledge and appearance that were hard to see in the mortal world. Her sister, a sister of similar age, must be nowhere short of apart.

"Hehe..." The maid's laughter woke Guo Shao up and pulled him back from his loss of consciousness.

Guo Shao looked at the girl who looked at him and smiled, and suddenly felt that she was a vulgar fan, without any interest... Although she was interested, she didn't dare to do anything randomly. He turned around and went into the house and asked again: "There is also a lantern festival in Daming City this year?"

The girl replied clearly: "Yes, it's available every year. Unless the Khitans fight to the city... But I heard that the Khitans also have to celebrate the Lantern Festival, so they won't fight on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month."

Guo Shao endured it for a while, and finally asked: "I'm in Daming Inn. I heard that my second wife also went to see the lantern festival last year?"

"No." The maid said affirmatively, "How could the second lady go to the street?"

Guo Shao smiled and said, "Sure enough, people in the world never make drafts for bragging."

He pulled his cloak and felt that his body was hot after drinking, but the wind would get colder. He said, "I'm going to sleep, you guys go to rest too, don't worry about me."
