In terms of the level of music, Adrina at the water's edge may not be as good as Alice, but the problem is that the level of the two players is very different, and the result is naturally crushing. Many of the guests were artistic, and when they heard Liman's piece, they knew that it was the repertoire of a great Prussian pianist a few years ago, and that he could only barely pass the performance.

When Zhao Guanhou played this tune, he asked in a low voice, asking if anyone knew the origin of this tune, but they all shook their heads and said they didn't know.

Could it be that this Jin Guoren still knows how to compose music, and created this song in order to celebrate Hannah's birthday? This kind of speculation would not have been believed. However, in the face of objective facts, more and more people support this viewpoint. After all, it would be strange for so many people to not know the origin of this song.

Mrs. Jenson walked over to the piano and smiled at Hannah, "I think you have found your knight, and I must admit that he is very good. ”

Zhao Guanhou had already played Adhelina by the water three times at this time, and when the song turned, another one popped up. Some of the guests had heard this song and whispered, "This is wishing everyone a good morning?" I've heard the Yankees play. Why did he play this tune? ”

Li Man's face had turned into ashes, and in the realm of martial arts, he didn't think he had the slightest chance of winning against a monster who killed more than twenty people with his hands. The only thing that can regain dignity is artistic accomplishment. But even I have to admit that in terms of the piano, I have lost completely. Regardless of whether the piece he played was timely or not, in terms of performance techniques, he was beyond his reach.

Yuan Weiting looked at Xu Juren, "Bu Wu, I think Guanhou's song seems to be good, you look at those foreigners, they all look attentive, but they look much more serious than when Li Man plays." This man's methods are really good, and he actually understands so many foreign things. Why didn't the elder send him to the general office of the national affairs yamen to run errands, if he went there to serve, I am afraid that one of them could top ten. ”

"I think it's because he's so good that he can't let him enter the affairs yamen. Otherwise, those officials would not be able to do it. Wood shows in the forest, the wind will destroy it......" Xu Juren said this, but he remembered himself, full of economic Lun and finally became a black Hanlin as black as coal, and he didn't even put the test bad, if it weren't for Yuan Weiting's sworn brotherhood, he didn't know how to pay off the debt, which was quite embarrassing.

Zhao Guanhou played the tune a few times, and suddenly sang "Happy birthday, happy birthday to you......" Although the song has existed for a long time, the birthday song has not yet appeared. He sang it several times in Prussian, and then in Albion.

Although the lyrics are simple, they are better than the actual occasion, and more importantly, he just showed the Adrina by the water, no one dares to doubt his level, if he says that his lyrics are simple, he can make another song casually, it will be boring.

When these few lines were finished, his tune changed again, and this time he played a concerto in A minor. When the song ended, Zhao Guanhou smiled and said, "Miss Hannah, I have a story to give to you, which is related to this song." The name of the story is called, a basket of fir fruits......"

By the time the story was finished, Hannah's eyes were confused, her expression was fascinated, and her cheeks flushed. Like a defeated rooster, Li Man came to the side dejectedly, but several of his companions came over and whispered something in his ear. His eyes, which were already dim, suddenly brightened again, and he whispered to a few people.

Hannah didn't pay attention to them, but generously pulled up Zhao Guanhou, "Oh my God, your performance is really outstanding, I really didn't expect that there would be such an excellent military attache as you in the Jin Kingdom." Well, you've done well enough today, and if you keep playing, I'm afraid Imperial University will ask you to be a professor of music. Give the piano to the band and let's dance. I think you're going to waltz and polka, right? ”

"I didn't jump well enough, I hope I don't lose face......"

On this occasion, a special band was naturally invited, and after the performance, the musicians of the band were under a lot of pressure, and they did not dare to slack off. All of them came up with mixed tricks, and the mood of the dance party was quickly pushed to the top. And Zhao Guanhou and Hannah, the dance partners, naturally became the core of the dance scene.

Zhao Guanhou said that he was not dancing well enough, which was naturally a humble statement, his dance level and physical flexibility were impeccable, and he had already undergone recovery training, and he had found the state of his previous life. Compared to him, Hannah's dancing skills are a little inferior, but under his deliberate leadership, it is not a big problem.

After the two danced three tunes in a row, Bassens took advantage of the pause to come up, "Zhao Guanhou, you performed very well, but now please allow the father to get his daughter back." Hannah can't just be your one-man dance partner. ”

"As you wish." With the handover of the beat, Zhao Guanhou gave Hannah to Bassen, and before he could go back to rest, Mrs. Jensen had already turned around

"I finally know why Shigege looks at you differently, among the Jin people I have met, your Zhang Zhongtang is the most visionary, Zhang Xiangshuai is the most courageous, and Sheng Daren is the most decisive, but in terms of talent, you are the best one. Now let me see how good your dance is. ”

Mrs. Jensen's dancing skills are really not comparable to Hannah, and Zhao Guanhou had no choice but to come up with his whole body solution, and the two can be regarded as opponents. These two chess opponents, jumping down one after another to the music, and there is no room for others to take over. Several people in the concession wanted to come over to change people, but they were all rejected by Mrs. Jensen coldly, and after dancing more than a dozen tunes, she put her hand on Zhao Guanhou's hand

"Please help me to get some rest and drink. I have to admit that it's been a long time since I've had this enjoyable jump. ”

The two of them each took a glass of beer and walked to the terrace on the second floor of the western-style building, where a few guests left with fun when they saw Jenson. Although Mrs. Jensen is not much older than Zhao Guanhou, she looks like she has experienced vicissitudes of life, and her beautiful eyes contain countless complex emotions. Raised the cup and lightly touched the cup with Zhao Guanhou

"The Prussian diet was so bad, you know, their king Frederick used to eat only potatoes every day, so they can't be expected to make anything delicious. If I have the chance, I will treat you to a capet, and that will count as food. Or eat Belgian waffles, chocolate, chips, or mashed potatoes. Believe me, our mashed potatoes and the potatoes here are not the same thing at all, they just happen to be made from the same ingredients......"

"I've always been fascinated by Belgian food, from the Liège muffins to the caramel biscuits." Zhao Guanhou smiled, "Thank you for the kindness of the countess, but I always feel that if I have dinner with you, there will be dozens of gentlemen throwing down their gloves at me, but I don't have so much time for dueling......"

"Actually, there are a lot of people who want to throw their gloves at you now." Mrs. Jenson smiled narrowly, and at this time behaved like the lightness and liveliness of a woman of her age.

"You know, since I became a widow, I have rarely danced so many dances in a row with a single man. So, you need to be prepared and allow plenty of time to pick up gloves. What's more, the person who wants to throw the gloves at you now may have come, you look over there. ”

Behind the terrace where the two of them were, several of Leeman's companions were pointing at them, not knowing what to say. Mrs. Jenson shook her head, "Childish little hairy head is destined to be a loser." ”

She suddenly stepped forward, hugged Zhao Guanhou gently, and whispered in his ear, "They were discussing just now, they want to pull you to play poker, and they want to win all your property at the poker table." I can give you a loan and use that money as capital to teach these lovely lads how to stay away from the tables. ”

In the ensuing banquet, Hannah was like a kraft candy, not leaving Zhao Guanhou's side, apparently she already knew about Madame Jenson's hugging Zhao Guanhou, so she used this way to express her dissatisfaction with this noble lady. In Mrs. Jenson's opinion, this childlike trick could only be exchanged for her laughing.

At the end of the ball, it was already about eleven o'clock in the night Western time, and the guests left one after another, and Yuan Weiting and other officials of the Jin State had already left. Hannah pulled Zhao Guanhou to the terrace, her eyes full of tenderness, "That story is beautiful...... Really, it's beautiful. Will you be like the man in the story and give me a precious gift next year? ”

"Of course, I promise to give you a gift that you will never forget on your birthday next year."

Hannah nodded, and suddenly blushed and asked, "Isn't the Countess beautiful?" ”

"Of course, we should be honest, she is indeed a rare beauty."

"I knew she was not only beautiful, but also rich. It is said that she has a large inheritance, and every man loves this kind of rich, beautiful, and cultured woman, doesn't he? ”

"It's natural, like everybody likes you, isn't it?" Zhao Guanhou smiled slightly, "I have a mutual friend with Mrs. Jenson, so I have something to talk about, but that's all." She had good intentions to inform me of a message and was willing to help me a little, knowing that some of your friends were not friendly to me. ”

Hannah's expression relaxed significantly, and her mood changed a lot, "It's that Leman again, he's really a troublemaker." But rest assured, although he is a nuisance, he is also a coward, and he will never dare to do anything to a hero who has dealt with twenty robbers alone. ”

She leaned forward and whispered, "I'll be back in two days." It is not possible to come to the Kingdom of Gold until the next holiday, and I know that you have a wife. But I still want to ask, ...... If you had the chance, would you come to Berlin to see me? ”

"If I had the chance to go to Berlin, I would definitely go to you. It's just that the official body is not autonomous, I'm afraid it's not so convenient. Besides, there are some things that can't be helped, since you know that I have a wife......"

"No...... That's not what I'm trying to say. Hannah rushed over, kissed Zhao Guanhou lightly on the face, and then retreated with lightning speed. Because of nervousness, her chest rose and fell violently, and she didn't even dare to look at Zhao Guanhou

"Your paintings, I will keep as my most precious treasure, and this necklace, I carry it with me as if you were always by my side. I know you have a wife, but I can wait...... I believe that the Lord Almighty will deliver miracles. I will continue to wait until the day when a miracle happens. ”

After saying this, she ran out like a thief, but the hem of the dress was too long, and she stepped on it at once, and her body lost her balance and fell forward. Before her body fell to the ground, Zhao Guanhou had already hugged her from behind and helped her up.

"Thank you...... May God bless you be there for me every time I am in danger. Hannah whispered, but when she saw someone coming this way, she didn't dare to say anything, and walked out with her skirt in her hand. Zhao Guanhou secretly assessed the feel of Fang Cai's hug, it seems that Yanmar is more material, but he doesn't know what the size of the countess is.

Although this Hannah is a foreign girl, after all, she is still young and a little timid, and it is difficult to really eat it. The countess, on the other hand, seemed to look much better.

He was thinking wildly in his heart, and Sai Jinhua walked from the room to the terrace, and handed him a piece of cake, "I'm not full, let's eat this." These Prussians just don't know how to cook, they eat like pig food, they can't cook without potatoes, I cook a few small dishes, and it makes Bassens dizzy, but today they don't let me be the chef, and the things they cook are unpalatable to death. ”

As she spoke, she leaned against the fence, straightened her chest, and glanced at Zhao Guanhou again, "If you don't want Bassens to give you a shot, it's best not to hit his daughter." If I really want to, I can do it for you. ”

Her northern dialect was already very good, but the southern tone was not very obvious, the sky was already dark, although there were electric lights on the concession side, but it was still dim and dark, and it was not clear to see her demeanor. Zhao Guanhou only smiled, "Don't be kidding, it's not a problem to eat her, it's a problem to be responsible for me after eating." Can't do it. ”

"It's good to know, if you want to find a woman, tell me, I'll help you find it. Besides, you can find me. Sai Jinhua smiled presumptuously, "Bassens and I are in name only, he can only watch, he can't move, and following him is no different from a vegetable household who is married to a eunuch." Sooner or later, I'm going to kick him and change to another man. You are my benefactor, without you, there would be no me, and if you want to find me, you will not take your money. ”

"Then I'm going to say thank you, but I don't want to duel with Bassens yet, so let's not talk about it yet. It's better for me to say goodbye first, lest he be jealous for a while and really try his best to find me. Generally, eunuchs are more jealous and don't want to provoke. ”

"He's playing a game outside." Sai Jinhua suddenly leaned over, threw herself into Zhao Guanhou's arms with a strong perfume smell, kissed him on the lips, and grabbed him on the abdomen.

"The more you hide, the more I want to, sooner or later, I want you to not be able to hide. Li Man's people are deliberately looking for trouble with you, and I heard that he has taken some way, and he borrowed 10,000 marks as capital to gamble with you. If you can't, how about I help you escape? With your skills, you won't have a problem jumping from here, just run. ”

"Run?" Zhao Guanhou sneered twice, and also touched Sai Jinhua's chest, "Did I commit it?" Isn't it a game of 10,000 marks? I accompany him. ”

By the time they reached the first floor, the lights were already on, and the room was very bright, and Leman and his two companions were fiddling with poker and bills on the table, while Bassens was interested in poker instead of his usual seriousness. Seeing Sai Jinhua accompany Zhao Guanhou downstairs, Li Man greeted him and opened his arms.

"Zhao Guanhou, my friend. It's a disappointment for you to leave at this time, and you can't go back to the barracks now, so why don't we have a good time and spend the night? ”

"Pastime?" Zhao Guanhou looked at the cards on the table with an ignorant expression, "I...... I'm not very good at this, I haven't seen ......."

"It's nothing, since you saved Hannah, you're our friend. We can teach you the rules, trust me, it's very simple. You'll soon be interested and hooked. ”

While speaking, Li Man had already pressed Zhao Guanhou on the chair, and then a companion began to deal cards, and Li Man began to explain the rules and gameplay of poker to Zhao Guanhou.
