A Tale of Two Phoenixes

Pei Shuzheng, who invited Chu Yu to come here, talked and laughed with several beautiful men. He saw Chu Yu uncontrollably, and the person who was talking to him pleaded guilty. Shi Shiran came over and laughed: "Brother Zichu is really trustworthy." His eyes moved to the other three people around Chu Yu, with a little questioning meaning: "Excuse me, who are-"

Chu Yu picked up his protracted tune and said, "These two are my family. This is Yu Ziyuan, and this is Yu Liusang. Zi Yuan has learned a lot from me. I think he is more suitable to participate in the poetry society. I brought them here. "On the lips, I changed the name of the two Yuanyuan Liusang lightly. After introducing them, Chu Yu pointed to Yue Jiefei:" This is my friend, the last name is Yue, the day before yesterday. " I heard that I was in an accident and sent me here. "

Ying Yue Jiefei also knew that he was awkward on one side, so he nodded slightly, pleaded guilty, and retreated to a humble corner, where he looked after Chu Yu's safety.

Subsequently, Pei Shu took Chu Yu to walk around the top of the mountain, introduced her to the beautiful men, and also introduced Chu Yu to them.

Every time Pei Shu introduced a person, Chu Yu smiled and nodded at the person with a smile. Her heart was calm and personable. No matter who she introduced, she seemed to be unmoved. a bit.

In fact, the reason why Chu Yu didn't respond was mainly because she didn't know the origin of these people just by listening to the names. Therefore, these names are just symbols in an abstract sense for her, and have no deeper meaning, but On the one side, Yuan Yuan listened, but his heart was surging.

There are about twenty or thirty people here. From the analysis of their surnames and their attitudes toward each other, and the information he has, they are probably the heirs of nearly half of the wealthy in the upper classes of the Southern Dynasty. In other words, if there is nothing in the future Too big a political change, these people will grow into a new generation of political centers.

Wu Yuan was rolling in her heart. Chu Yu didn't notice it. Her attention was being drawn to Pei Shu from time to time, but she was attracted by another thing: I do n’t know if it was an illusion. She always felt that Pei Shu was today. It looks a lot better than when I saw it three days ago. The skin is whiter and more delicate. It can almost be said that it is a step up.

Although secretly this may be an illusion, but Chu Yu ’s suspicion is getting deeper and deeper. If there was no cosmetic technique in ancient times, she would have doubted that he had bleached. Another thing is that Pei Shu's body has a faint aroma from time to time. Let Chu Yu wonder if he encountered the second Moxiang? But when she met Pei Shu the other day, he didn't have such a fragrance on him?

I noticed that Chu Yu's eyes were a little overly concerned. Pei Shu first glanced at it, and then came to realize, smiling: "Did Zi Chu see it, I rubbed it off today?"

"Wipe the powder?" Faced with people and languages ​​that could not be connected at all, Chu Yu wondered if she had hallucinations, and repeated it almost unconsciously.

她 In the values ​​of her outlook on life and worldview for more than 20 years before her death, it seems that the word rubbing powder was specially created for women. I still remember a cosmetic advertisement. A woman with white and smooth skin pointed at her face and said with a smile on the screen: "Guess, did I rub the powder today?" At that time, Chu Yu was watching a TV series. Every day, I have to endure this commercial inserted in a TV series, so I was very impressed. Today, Pei Shu's words re-hook her memories many years ago.

"Yeah." Pei Shu's expression was a little smug, and he pointed to his face and said, "I rubbed the peach pollen that I bought from Pulanfang specially. This kind of powder is very fine. It is not rubbed on my face. It ’s almost the same, and it ’s not easy to fall. Do n’t believe me? ”Today is a special day, of course, you must dress up seriously.

Wu Chuyu's mind was still in shock, but he didn't come back: How did Pei Shu originally look like a normal human being? Why is there such a depressing problem? The people next to him did not seem surprised to hear him say this, as if it was normal to do so.

Suddenly thinking of a possibility, Chu Yu looked around and then suddenly looked at Pei Shu: "Isn't all these people rubbing the powder?" Chu Yu couldn't help but think that she was now in the middle of a group of men who smeared powder. There was a chill in the whole body.

"It's not true." This sentence of Pei Shu made Chu Yu's heart loose and secretly said, but the next sentence depressed her again: "Half and half."

Seeing that Chu Yu showed a very ignorant and shocking look in terms of trends, Pei Shu kindly gave her special tuition to let Chu Yu know the current fashion. In this era, men's powdering and incense are all fashionable It's as ordinary as wearing clothes. Of course, there are people who are born with natural beauty and strong capital or like to be close to nature. Such people will not do this.

If you want to draft a slogan for the trend of powder rubbing, it must be: Whiter! Tenderer! Even more shiny!

Wu Chuyu secretly sighed with relief, she said that fortunately, it was somewhat normal, otherwise she really wanted to run away.

Pitiful.

Wu Chuyu looked at Pei Shu with pity: How can a handsome guy (reluctantly calculate) be aesthetically distorted to this point?

Pitiful.

Pei Shu looked at Chu Yu and thought so. He didn't even know how to wipe the powder. The child never knew how to be strictly controlled or even imprisoned at home.

Most of these people who participated in the poetry meeting seemed to be very talkative. A few of them came together to talk about the philosophy of life. The heavens and the earth were truthful and the atmosphere was very warm. Pei Shu took Chu Yu all the way and said all along. I apologized, "Please wait a moment, I'll fix my makeup." Said Shi Shiran took a powder box out of his sleeve, and took a small piece of soft velvet cloth and pounced on his face.

Chu Yu was a bitter cold again, but looking at Pei Shu's natural look, she was not good enough to persuade herself to treat him as a sister in the future, but this scene was a bit shocking to her after all He simply pretended to look around and turned his head, but glimpsed a young man in a blue shirt sitting in the pavilion.

When Chen Fang was far away, the young man and Chu Yu were separated by a few beautiful men who were chatting, leading Chu Yu to approach him and discover him.

On the table in front of the youth was a guqin. He put his hands in the wide sleeves and stared at the strings. His handsome face was tight, as if shrouded in a layer of cold frost, but the pair hung down. His eyes made him look melancholy again.

There seemed to be a layer of intentionally isolated air around him, as if outside events had nothing to do with him. He didn't want to listen to others, and didn't want anyone to come to him. Chu Yu was asking who Pei Shu, who had just finished his makeup, was who. It was found that there was some commotion in the surrounding people, and many people took a few steps in one direction.

What happened? With curiosity, Chu Yu looked over.
