大明曆‧天啟六年五月十五日‧順天府澄清坊‧午時31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0jKK9H1FH
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvOI2FZch3
別院的中央處是塘水池，池中佈滿了蓮花，五月時節雖未到花期，卻有不少菡萏※1業已亭亭玉立，清風徐來搖曳生姿，水面倒影漣漪盪漾…31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv36g5IcixY
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VZpGKznLf
院中的小閣倚水池而立，沿著池畔再起這座涼亭，在這初夏時分，竟感覺不到半絲燠熱之氣，足見庭院主人的巧妙心思；在這寧靜幽雅的庭院裡品茗清談，正好洗淨一身俗世氣息，超脫紅塵、返璞歸真、魂遊天外、跨鶴仙鄉…31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52LTKNzKZR
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvUVM0DYib
無奈這世外桃園的謐靜，卻被那咶噪嘈雜的聲音劃破。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXp6XPNHpbs
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgvqagdJ1d
「所以就別再子曰子曰的說三道四了，孔老夫子見識淺薄，我們又不好跟他老人家在天之靈計較…」吳省身語不驚人死不休的說著，臉上還一副寬宏大量的樣子。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPJvKvvotO
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzrdGo3u5sF
有見過膽子大的，沒見過膽子這麼大的！這年頭敢這麼詆譭聖人的，吳省身算是頭一個，這話要是傳了出去，只怕吳省身馬上就會叫那口沫星子給淹没。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7W4x6kLQl
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrbIXVeskI
席間眾人也被他驚世駭俗的話所震撼到，一時都是面面相覷、目瞪口呆…只有羅莉不為所動，端著茶杯輕啜著，面前那盤白老鼠模樣的糕點竟已被掃盪一空，連底下襯著的荷葉都沒留下，不過那小小的胸脯卻是微微的鼓了起來，見吳省身看自己，慌亂的低下頭，俏臉微微泛紅。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhU9vBxy5D0
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKc7GgFNBqE
話說席間眾人一陣驚愕過去，回過神來，一時群情洶湧、個個躍躍欲試，吳省身見狀連忙伸手，止住眾人發話：「在下知道諸君為孔老夫子不忿，既然這樣，要不？」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWq68833nwo
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NieiUMQZq
「請諸位替那孔老夫子，回答在下幾個簡單的問題如何？」吳省身故作輕鬆的說：「不會是什麼大問題，無非是問些事物之名罷了！」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKCYqTEeu5
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrvYzE1D1y
「若各位答得上來，在下便任憑各位處置…如何？」一臉賊兮兮笑容。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26lklEf8ue
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylYbkp5YDA
眾人不知他的意圖，沒人敢接腔答話，席間雰圍一時沈寂了下來，吳省身也不在意，自顧自的說了下去…31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4w1zuBdwef
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4glqBH4QPz
「要是有一個人，頂著大光頭，頭上還燙著戒疤，身穿袈裟口唸阿隬陀佛…」吳省身笑著對羅莉問：「小莉妳說…那是個什麼人？」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oV4AgtFe7
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjDhS8S6E7
小丫頭毫不遲疑，爽快的答道：31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJoH90oeQe

「賊秃囉！」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9xfqpojw3

31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJ4tZvTnOp
席上眾人亦是忍俊不住，吃吃竊笑起來，席間本來略為凝重的氣氛，終於又稍微活絡了起來，吳省身見狀，也就裝腔作勢的，朝那錢受之拱手一揖，畢恭畢敬的問：31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfhd4P9TMk
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYjbN1OPJW
「那敢問夫子，此為何人？」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFGP9Fk238
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsunJIrzSlm
錢受之臉上的笑容一僵，好半晌才回過神來，無奈的搖搖頭，苦笑著說：31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUkw57yUXi

「妖孽！妖孽…」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CKomtQVlb
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiy5C5bKE5H
此話一出，眾人哄笑。蓋因孔子所處春秋時代，佛教尚未傳入中土，若是讓那孔子乍見此跣足削髮之徒，只怕便是如此回答了…31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWpUsW2FOc
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPPGdc938v
嘿嘿嘿…擊墜數再加一！31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfq3l39wNNC
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJyUE1RHGF
吳省身微微一笑，略一思索，又拉了張椅子出來，故作不知的問羅莉：31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCuJiIWsM4
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1u1myaTlX
「小莉啊…那這又是什麼呢？」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQH4Lm5C3L
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXnNHGvD8h
羅莉嗔怪的看了吳省身一眼道：「不就是張椅子嗎？」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5jd7FLhy7
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4XW8Jjdmm
吳省身又是拱手一揖，這次對著的是周玉繩：31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEknr24XFc

「那敢問夫子，此為何物？」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWQsSYcccy
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyccTzEVEBB
這椅子乃是唐朝後期由西域傳入之物，在那之前，人們在室內都是膝行跪坐，春秋時代的孔子自然是沒見過這種東西。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRZ9pBzCZg
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpucfW5e9hr
周玉繩一怔，苦思片刻後，靈機一動的答道：31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQDTJdyERa
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgI1fRqRr3Q
「吾有知乎哉？無知也。有鄙夫問於我，空空如也；我叩其兩端而竭焉。」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHslUIiZXrh
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8822RgAw8
這段話的意思是，孔子也不是無所不知的。當有人向他請教時，他只是針對問題，從正反兩方來反問對方，讓對方自行思索，並進一步誘導對方去找出問題的癥結點。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMQM2IcU9g
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQJ6KroKpP
誒誒誒～好歹你也說中文啊！31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OXaRZ27Az
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkl67oOjiX
吳省身可聽不懂這之乎也者的，頭上捏了一把冷汗，正不知如何應對之時，一旁的錢受之倒是替他解了危…31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4OjazLyka
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomZmxQlzYW
「嘖！狡滑…這可作不得數！」錢受之笑嘻嘻的扯後腿。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dhvkoT8Hc
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hgUBrtm0N
有趣的是，同陣營的顧怪竟然倒戈，還一本正經的說：「知之為知之…」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwo9vKHm6hk
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qyjVSIP0q
一旁的歸奇馬上接口：「不知為不知…」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16Hi0jJuFJ
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhb8rHT83Zp
倆人最後還異口同聲的說：「是知也！」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2QWmLP4AQ
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCWcUXvEra
啊啊啊～最後竟然是在敵軍的火力支援下，擊墜數再加一！31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoImwa4pi8p
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwsztPkiTV
吳省身見好就收，歛了狂態，故作高明的說：「那孔老夫子是個數千年前的人，受限於一時一地，其所知自是亟其有限…」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oy5Bs377v
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiveE1oIrHR
接著便滔滔不絕的說了下去：「在那個時代，人皆以為，天圓地方，日月星辰環宿其中，我天朝上國便為那天地中央，除此之外便為四荒；更認為那天狗吞日，白虹貫日是謂異象…」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqnjZQ8k92
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfirOo2hrao
「當時民風淳樸、雞犬相聞，席地而坐、結蘆而居，不知聲色犬馬、未聞酒色財氣，只有諸子百家、尚無佛道二教，諸般差異，與當今之世，不可不謂相去甚遠…」吳省身最後悠悠的說：31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsTa7VzQng
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeG4xFVGZ4
「世道都變了…還拿千年前的話，來管千年後的事！這哪行的通？」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfna3Ldkcn
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9QCkXyTNV
「那碩彥宿儒儘會信口開河、紙上空談，還自知徒託空言，於是便搬個死人來教訓活人，這又是哪門子的道理？」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9u9QzHvuov
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7LWhOIv9U
黃太沖仍堅持的說：「不對！不對…這世上總有些道理總不變的，好比說那忠君之道…」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSS4IvoG3ht
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrY8hxQN2e
啊啊～不好意思，這個正好是第一個倒台的啊…31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCl4zDTh83
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1VgKqEquW
吳省生也不想直接反駁，又見一旁羅莉眼光閃亮，滿臉躍躍欲試的模様…吳省身略帶懷疑，試著問了句：「小莉啊！這忠君的君字，妳可知道指的是什麼人？」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtnSBFqrtt
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGM61RFFKXN
話一出口，吳省身才突然想到…31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9PJqz940E
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1U7pNI4eay
糕糟！大事不妙！別說出來，千萬別說出來啊～～～31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQkOSbtxWr
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJAas0KC5K
「這個我也知道！」羅莉歡欣鼓舞的正要回答，卻見吳省身拚命的朝他搖頭。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7Fnws6BGh
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9o7tc0FGxB
「咯咯咯…皇帝唄！」小丫頭慧黠的笑道。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TlI3OJOqP
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHWd5sGb4m
羅莉每咯出一個字，吳省身的心跳就漏了一拍，生怕她一時興起、脫口而出，把「狗」皇帝這三個字給說了出來。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdLAHXAnD8
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYL2kt58cUz
一定是故意的！這個邪惡的小丫頭一定是故意的！！！31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1shXGmqnyu
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0HvBpscM6
驚魂方定的吳省身遷怒，拱手又是一揖，矛頭直指黃太沖：31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKRn5ktdxn
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyQ4wxrWUZ
「那敢問夫子，君為何物？」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEZ89BxCOk
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ95BwaW0ot
黃太沖也是硬梆梆的說：「君為天子！」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnb2dgyLHvF
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVkG4uiC66
哼！就怕你不這麼說！31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQf1sMcoMA
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9MUn3s8KY
吳省身畢恭畢敬的接著問：「夫子既知周天子，為何又要遊列國？」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrU88YCqBJ
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwyAMz2yMqk
一時之間，席間一片沈寂，四下悄然無聲，靜得連一根針落在地上都聽得見…31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiu9dScG1X
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPoyXwxAX8
語畢，吳省身也不管眾人的反應，得意的一振衣袖，端起茶杯輕啜，一副高人作派，暗中又朝王檢挑了挑眉…31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtGTfgWO2m
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pFDySvKyw
嘿嘿嘿…擊墜數再加一！這下應該鎮住場面了吧？31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdl6LjDiUB
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrd477ko38q
不料那顧怪竟一本正經的起身道：「先生言論精妙、發人省思…這麼說來，先生是贊同駱大人據實以報的囉！」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhP5UnYq8x
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQKiXwCBPw

31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcm22sXqqny
胡攪蠻纏、亂搞一通，得來這樣的結果，也不是吳省身想要的，暗自翻著肚子裡稀薄的墨水，吳省身試著從裡面找個方案來解套…31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjpJCmfeY5
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLalvrJn3vj
吳省身略一思索，心中有了定計，只是不曉得行不行的通，略微不安的朝顧怪問道：31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIGQK8Naya
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxu8g6vwlt
「史記…讀過嗎？」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6DXC5H08c
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXV0OF8BPH
不等顧怪回答，王檢插話說道：「待會兒再說吧，中午了…」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyfhHvoc2K
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFERjCtojux
眾人聽著有趣，一時倒也忘了時間，王檢見時近晌午，於是吩咐曹總管，帶人將茶席撤了下去，換上一桌精緻的酒菜，一時之間人來人往，衣鬢綽約，珮環啷噹。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOvrPj6XUW
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHvUZdqnps
吳省身與羅莉初次見識這等排場，分外覺得有意思，正目不暇給地四下張望，其中一個侍女見他這副模樣，還忍不住掩嘴一笑，賞了他一記媚眼。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ757YpJsN2W
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzLQ0A97y4
閣樓裡突然傳出錚錚幾聲琴響，悠揚的聲音在幽靜的別院裡迴盪，聞者心中皆是一片靈寂空明，猶如醍醐灌頂，從頭到腳被洗滌了一番，整個人都變得超凡脫俗了起來，而吳省身更是別有感觸。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dMA8LNy9c
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gi8fHSHvU
喲！過年了！燒香拜拜囉………31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERtqIu1SBz
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFNJfVv3tE
很久很久以後，古箏、琵琶的聲音，通常只會在特定的時候或特殊的地點響起…身在古意盎然的庭園裡，耳中又傳來熟悉的聲音，吳省身有一種時空交錯的迷失感。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvVyDagvSM
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxDUXloYd0
倒是錢受之眉開眼笑，手上摺扇啪一聲的打開，風流倜儻地輕搖，搖頭晃腦的吟道：「轉軸撥弦三兩聲，未成曲調先有情…」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyaGlUVhpZK
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ffZNTa4p3
繼而閉上眼睛沉浸在餘韻裡，回味無窮的說：「王…公子好雅興，這琴音…真當繞樑三日，令人日思夜寐，食不知味啊～」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPAuJyP8x3
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85eOr9KIzJ
王檢聽了不無得意的說：「這是江蘇四秀當中的紅線瑤琴徐拂徐大家，目前碰巧在我府上做客，曹總管…」王檢喚來曹總管低聲吩咐一番，春風滿面的抬起頭來道：「諸位今日有耳福了！」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDZJDMCOR1
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHRsbB11Jy
此話一出，錢受之自是眉飛色舞，歸奇顧怪的眼睛更是馬上盯著閣樓門口不放，始終鬱鬱寡歡的黃太沖終於動容，就連一向雲淡風輕的周玉繩都面露喜色。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5SEkH5tsN2
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhGa0jXD8P
這裡大概只有駱養性這個大老粗和自己一樣不解風情了，吳省身感慨的回頭瞅了駱養性一眼，這才發現…31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0xwsI7uKR

誒誒誒～你的口水滴下來了！！！31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5SlgSFevN
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3aNAGgjOL3
「紅拂姊的琴藝天下無雙，很多人求之不得的呢！」羅莉好心的提醒吳省身，不過卻是有些坐立不安的模樣，吳省身瞧著她微鼓的胸脯，微微一笑朝王檢道：「王公子，能不能跟你要些池子裡的荷葉？」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOTqv3RiHL
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmQLI6Eok9
王檢不明所以的說：「好啊！」吳省身聽了也不待王檢吩咐下人，逕自踱到池畔，撈了幾片特大的折了回來。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcok0Y1hhP2
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwQfWmjOF0
眾人久候的徐拂一襲黑衣，柳腰纖細堪盈一握，頭戴黑紗幃帽，在侍女的陪同下進到涼亭，她在這小閣裡住了幾日，見到吳省身這一番折騰，將原本疏落有致的蓮池弄得雜沓凌亂，眉頭不由得輕蹙了起了。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzznpk6wYuR
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8HfsHdtYvj
一旁的錢受之見了，也是笑嘻嘻的打趣吳省身道：「吳公子如此不解風情、辣手摧花，莫非那千年之後，世人已不知這憐香惜玉的道理？」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RQS6MeqBT
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqatOANU6Mo
奚落我好在女人面前擺顯？真有你的…31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXV5coNqSMV
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNN1FTOUkp
吳省身也不打緊，笑著應對：「個人問題…個人問題！小弟素有採花聖手的別名…幹這辣手摧花的事也不是一次兩次了…」眾人一聽，俱是莞薾一笑。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKAhza5thS
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfNYscLT4y
邊上的駱養性一聽，更是加油添醋、語帶曖昧的說：「對呀！對呀！就連錦衣衛內也盛傳，吳兄弟身懷四十八手絕藝，中招者將遍嚐那銷魂蝕骨、欲罷不能的滋味…」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPglCh1w6VQ
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJB61ah6Dz
糗了！這事怎麼傳出去了………31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwOMuhYga2
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZi9CAb8H6
看著擠眉弄眼的駱養性，想到他那個兩次前來偷窺的妹子…吳省身就不由得生出一種遇人不淑的感概，渾然沒有注意到那徐拂黑紗下的眼神帶著絲絲寒意…31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdQAjRKBYo
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWUZJogHEr
想到自己的名聲就此敗壞，吳省身懶懶的將手上的荷葉遞給羅莉，眼睛恨恨的盯著這個始作俑者，羅莉這才不好意思的，扭扭捏捏地自懷裡，掏出一隻隻雪白小老鼠模樣的可愛糕點，糕點明顯受到壓擠，微微有些變形，羅莉一面小心翼翼的呵護，一隻隻數著，然後整整齊齊的排放在荷葉上，一面吞吞吐吐，小聲的說：「給城隍廟的小孩，和姊姊的…」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtr2C3DNck
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUayLKSDvtB
周玉繩注意到徐拂的面色不霽，手撫長鬚微笑的對羅莉打趣道：「小娃娃這正是慷他人之慨呢…」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDxODhcUYR
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJkNMXRpL3
戴墨鏡的人不會知道，自己溫柔的眼神看起來很冰冷；留長鬍子的人不會曉得，自己滿臉的笑意看起來很嚴肅。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGeirYb4uE

所以當羅莉抬起頭來，看到是眼前有一個嚴肅的大鬍子正在教訓自己…31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbcBZYzQol
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT917rt6DyA
一邊的錢受之也是笑嘻嘻的說：「吳公子的別號是採花聖手，身邊小娃娃的別號，莫非是那空空妙手？」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheYAsawXzm
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQyDsxC2n0
羅莉一聽，心裡一慌，失手將一枚糕點落在地上，羅莉心疼的連忙蹲下要撿，可惜小白鼠叫一摔，不僅變了形，上頭也沾滿了泥沙，羅莉私藏時，這數量是算過的，這下少了一隻，心頭一陣委屈，蹲在地上，眼淚就吧嗒吧嗒的落了下來…31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnh9poBTver

31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzJVY8xREM
吳省身心中老大不樂意，連忙將羅莉扶了起來，抱在懷裡忙不迭的勸慰：「不哭…不哭…」只聽羅莉抽抽咽咽的說：「少…少了一隻…還…還累…夫君…清…清譽受損…」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKjYPq653a
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2GBAPKEAV
「清譽什麼的才不打緊吶…」吳省身抱著小丫頭，無視他人眼光輕笑著說：「剛才那些點心，其實我也很想打包的喲…這一點，妳比我勇敢…」吳省身揉揉羅莉的頭道：「作得很好喔…那些孩子們知道，一定會很高興的！」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7muQitZQkD
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDnWCdnIiq
說完惡狠狠的瞪了徐拂一眼，吳省身清楚的得，兩個老不修幾番調侃，不過是為這女人出頭，追根究柢…還不就是因為他弄亂了蓮池的景緻。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdtzO3oyIZ
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQlZGEsGuN
徐拂讓吳省身這一瞪，嚇得退了半步，黑紗下的玉顏隱隱露出怯意，一旁的錢受之見狀連忙進身擋住，訕訕的說：「吳公子這般唐突佳人，卻是大大不妥…」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7qH43UrLc
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREqleepDN8
「這位阿姨是佳人，我家小莉就不是佳人了嗎？」吳省身暗笑，冷冷的用嘴巴遞出一刀。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChYYhFCJl6
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFeXmi1hJM
徐拂一聽，幃帽輕顫、黑紗亂抖，蹬蹬蹬連退數步，虛弱而優雅的跌坐在椅子上；纖手捧心、氣喘吁吁、花枝亂顫，身後侍女見狀，連忙上前，手忙腳亂的輕拍其後背，一旁的錢受之亦是心疼的遞上茶水…31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBrUWG8mjW
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWetUv8wfu
另一位護花使者周玉繩連忙跳出來說道：「吳公子先是做那辣手摧花之舉，座下童子更是那…不告而取，連番作為，俱是那…有辱斯文之事，擾人雅興，俗不可耐！」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDM9RKw9LNS

自古以來，文人雅士互刮巴掌，彼此都怕弄髒手，總得拿本書或文章墊著，這裡想來也不例外；想到這裡，吳省身心底不禁啞然失笑…31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0VUzNHEOg
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIoJ7v8WhR
在很久很久的以後，吳省身讀書的歲月裡，學過那麼幾篇古文；但在這過程中，吳省身發現，那選擇文章教材的人之間，只怕是有居心叵測，心懷莫大惡意的人參與其間。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4SuMqakZL
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQMaKlXs0M
因為在他學過的古文裡面，半數都是很有問題，而且正好拿來扇讀書人嘴巴的，比方說…31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyv7iCCqyU
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8YaCKBN5A
「蓮，出淤泥而不染，濯清漣而不妖…」吳省身手負身後，下頜微揚，孤高自傲的唸著。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkrlvbGtDG
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmfLuxn6XW
