Chapter 196: The "Hongmen Banquet" in the Secluded Garden

At half past one o'clock in the afternoon, Qian Kunsheng arrived at the gate of the dí garden half an hour earlier than the agreed time.

It is said that an ancestor of the Huang family, because of his great achievements in countering the rebellion and winning the flood in person, he was awarded the title of Taishi by the emperor at that time, and after his dedication, he pointed to this place to build a garden, so that the old minister who had contributed a lot to the country and the society for the rest of his life.

Nowadays, it is a place to greet friends and gather together, but it is not open to the public.

If you don't have a special VIP card, or if you have Huang Lao's post, even if the most valuable person comes, you will be politely rejected by the manager and guys of the garden.

On the contrary, if you have a VIP card issued by Huang Chengliang, or take his post to the garden to enjoy the scenery, family and friends gathering, etc., no matter what you eat and drink in it, it is all free.

Over time, being able to enter the Secluded Garden has become a symbol of some kind of status.

Although Qian Kunsheng is an upstart in the Yuan capital and ranks among the ranks of third-rate families, he is still on tiptoe, and it is difficult to reach the Huang family, a family that has been inherited for hundreds of years.

Therefore, today, for the first time, he was able to enter this secluded garden.

stepped forward and knocked on the door, and handed the post sent by Huang Lao last night to the guy in front of him who looked very energetic.

After the guy stood outside the door and took the post to confirm that it was correct, he smiled and arched his hand to Qian Kunsheng, "It turned out to be the head of the Qian family, disrespectful and disrespectful!"

Those who can work in this garden are naturally carefully selected, and their attitudes are not flattering or flattering, but they are absolutely impossible to find fault in conversation.

Qian Kunsheng bowed slightly, and said lightly: "I'm tired." ”

"Ouch, you're polite," the guy greeted with an unchanged smile as if he hadn't seen Qian Kunsheng's indifference, "The old master's post reads 'Yunshu Courtyard Tianxiang Pavilion', please follow me." ”

......

Looking at the white walls and black tiles outside the door is inconspicuous, but when you enter the garden, it is suddenly open and unique.

Under the leadership of the garden guys, Qian Kunsheng walked along the bluestone path laid among the evergreen bushes, walked through the bamboo forest, crossed the covered bridge, and walked for more than 20 minutes before coming to a moon gate.

Qian Kunsheng stopped behind the guy, only to see a plaque engraved with the words "sit and watch Yunshu" hanging above the door of the cave.

He immediately remembered what was written on the post, and secretly guessed: "Presumably this is the Yunshu Courtyard written on the post, but where is the Tianxiang Pavilion?"

"This is Yunshu Courtyard, please come in, someone inside will take you to Tianxiang Pavilion. The guy who led the way bowed slightly to Qian Kunsheng, and then said no more.

Although Qian Kunsheng didn't understand why he wanted to change people to lead the way, he didn't want to show his cowardice because of his identity, so he didn't ask, nodded in response, and walked into the door.

Entering the moon gate, the road under the feet becomes a wide avenue paved with white cobbles, on the left side is a lotus pond water pavilion, the lotus leaf field above the water surface, the lotus leaf field, the lotus leaf is slightly blooming, there are all kinds of carp playing and shuttling under it, the breeze is blowing, people can't help but feel refreshed.

On the right side of the road, there is a rockery, on which the green grass is full of flowers, the flowing water is murmuring, from time to time there are birds or stop, or fly, singing, asking for their friends, and there is a lively fun.

It's just that Qian Kunsheng has nothing to do in his heart and has no time to appreciate it, and he is destined to live up to such a beautiful scenery.

He glanced left and right, decided that this was the only road leading straight ahead, and strode forward.

Bypassing the rockery, a fragrant fragrance comes to the nose, a large osmanthus forest appears in front of Qian Kunsheng's eyes, the green leaves are shining, the golden cinnamon is dotted, although the fragrance of the flowers is strong but not pungent, and there is no dazzling purple and red, the end is "why should it be light blue and light red, since it is the first class in the flower." ”。

After walking a short distance, I saw another fellow waiting at a fork in the road not far ahead.

"Your side, please. ”

The man smiled and raised his hand, and led the way into one of the forks in the road covered by the cinnamon branches.

After walking for another five or six minutes, the two finally stood in front of a pavilion.

Qian Kunsheng looked at it, and saw couplets with gold characters on a black background hanging on the pillars on both sides - "Guizi falls in the middle of the month, and the sky is fragrant and the clouds float outside." ”

When he saw the osmanthus forest before, he didn't think about it carefully, but now when he saw this couplet, he suddenly said secretly: 'It turns out that Tianxiang Pavilion means this......

Estimating that the appointed time was approaching, Qian Kunsheng was not in the mood to take a closer look at the environment, so after taking a general look, he walked two steps quickly, and followed his man into Tianxiang Pavilion.

Walking into the door that the guy pushed open, Qian Kunsheng saw that there were already seven or eight middle-aged men and women inside, sitting around the tea table nervously.

"The head of the Qian family (Qian Dong)...... You're coming. ”

"Great, you're here, and we've got the backbone. ”

"Master Qian, do you know what Old Man Huang suddenly summoned us here for?"

"Money ......"

"That's it!"

Qian Kunsheng had not been able to sleep well all night, but now his head hurt from the noise of this group of people, and he stopped their noise in a deep voice.

"If you come, you will be safe, and we will listen to what Old Man Huang has to say later. ”

Seeing Qian Kunsheng's attitude, he obviously understood the situation, but he was impatient to explain to them, and everyone was a little unhappy.

But you look at me, I look at you, no one dares to open their mouths to solicit suspicion, so they can only secretly slander themselves, but they still have a smiling face on their faces, and ask Qian Kunsheng to sit down.

It had only been two minutes since the group sat down when the door opened again.

"I'm sorry, Huang has something to do temporarily, and he came late, so I made you wait for a long time. ”

Huang Chengliang heard his voice before he saw him, and when his loud voice sounded, the person sitting immediately stood up again and greeted him.

"Sit down, don't be inhibited. Although Huang Chengliang's words were polite, his expression was very serious.

As a person who has been in a high position for a long time, even if Huang Chengliang is smiling, these people don't dare to make a mistake, not to mention the appearance now, even if his aura is not fully opened, it is enough to make people who are still being hidden by their own children from last night's incident feel uneasy.

Among these people, that is, Qian Kunsheng can still maintain his composure.

"I won't say anything about the pleasantries, but I invite you to come here today to ask for an account of what happened before last night's game. ”

Huang Chengliang sat down with a golden knife, took the tea bowl handed over by the man, and put forward today's purpose straight to the point.

As soon as these words came out, among the seven or eight men and women, except for a couple who bowed their heads with shame on their faces, the rest of them all looked at each other, dazed for some reason.

Qian Kunsheng gasped, and thought suspiciously: "Then what kind of sacredness is Yin Qingyue, not only can Huang Lao take the trouble to set up this tea bureau in Tianxiang Pavilion, shock and beat us people, and personally come to solve this matter with us?"

Huang Chengliang observed everyone's expressions and nodded clearly: "It seems that I still have to start from the beginning." ”
