Chapter 139: Members
The next day, Cui Lu and Jing Ci were eating breakfast, when the same dignified man walked into the mansion, walked straight to them, and bowed respectfully. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"I've seen Cui Lang, under Xia Nai Saburo's subordinates, I specially came to welcome Cui Lang into the house." The man was about thirty years old, burly, with neat movements, and looked like a martial arts practitioner.
Cui Lu nodded, smiled without saying a word, and continued to eat. Jing Ci next to her glanced at the man, and didn't say anything, eating leisurely, she didn't like to be interrupted halfway through eating.
Seeing this, the man took a few steps back and waited quietly.
About half an hour later.
"Okay?" Cui Lu looked at Jing Ci, who was finally satisfied with putting down his chopsticks.
"Hmm."
The two men then got up, and the man led the way. As soon as they went out, there were two people waiting outside under the horses.
It turned out that there was more than one person.
"I've seen Cui Lang." The two of them said in unison, looked up at Jing Ci again, and continued to say in unison, "I've seen Lang Jun." ”
"Just call me Wang Shilang." Jing Ci tilted his head slightly.
Cui Lu smiled helplessly unconsciously, "Let's go." ”
A group of five people, riding horses in front and back slowly walked on the street, causing passers-by to turn back, there was such a battle in this place in Luzhou, I don't know which official or rich child traveled.
Moment.
They went to a house in the north of the city and went around to the side gate. This house is quite grandiose and atmospheric, obviously different from the surrounding houses, the pattern is excellent, but there is a bit of Chang'an flavor.
The porter was already waiting at the door, opening the door open for the arrival of the guests.
Before he stepped into the door of the house, a figure strode towards him, "Cui Lang, you are out of welcome." The person who came was full of energy, with a smile on his face, so handsome and handsome, "This is ......"
"Don't come unharmed, Li Sanlang." Jing made a gesture and smiled meaningfully.
He stared at her for a moment.
"Hahaha, I'm almost unrecognizable, Yang Siniang's dress is simply ......" Li Longji laughed.
She corrected him, "Don't, I'm Wang Shilang in Luzhou." ”
"Hahaha, good! Please—"
Inside, through a wall, you can see the high eaves inside, and the details of the roof beams are finely carved and majestic.
"I have already prepared a reception banquet for the two Langjun, and Defeng Pavilion in the back, please-"
"How ...... such politeness do"
"I just called a few friends casually, and prepared a few glasses of thin wine, which is not a tribute." Li Longji's face was full of humility.
"I knew that you couldn't be idle in Luzhou."
"Those who know me are Mo Ruo Cui Lang! Invited some like-minded people to the banquet, does Wang Shilang mind? Li Longji looked at Jing Ci.
"It's great that I'm also married to a gentleman." Jing Zi laughed. There is no chance on weekdays, but now women dress up as men and are not recognized, and they have fun with all men on an equal footing, without being treated differently, the opportunity is rare, and it couldn't be better.
The layout of the Li Mansion is the front house and the back garden.
The back garden is on higher ground, especially in the second half, which is located on a small hill and is surrounded by vegetation and has a very good view. There is a pavilion on the high ground, the timber is quite new, and it has just been completed, and it is beautifully built.
Because it is autumn, the grass and trees are withering, and you can see five or six men in the pavilion through the dry grass branches at a glance, sitting cross-legged, with cups and plates on the table, drinking and laughing, so happy.
"Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce to you, this is Chang'an Cui Lang, and this is Chang'an Wang Shilang." Li Longji took him into the pavilion and said to the men who were talking and laughing at the table.
Cui Lu and Jing Ci worked together.
"Hello two Lang Jun—"
"It's just in time, this time it's a whole table."
"Please take a seat—"
The gentlemen on the seats were quite enthusiastic.
The two of them smiled and sat down.
"I'll introduce myself first, my surname is Hu, the second oldest in the family, a local in Luzhou, and Xu San...... on my left."
…………
The gentlemen on the seat are quite interesting, everyone is drinking together, drinking and chanting poetry, all of them are slightly literary people, and they are also quite heroic and very happy.
"Now that the Turks are attacking again, knowing that my Tang Dynasty is strong, and still dare to make trouble again and again, it's just fatal."
After three rounds of drinking, the gentlemen put down their wine glasses and dice, and began to talk about state affairs.
"The Turks are barbaric and difficult, and for hundreds of years, they just can't settle down."
"Hey-I don't think so, after the Turks destroyed the country, the Tang Dynasty sent Turkic soldiers to fight in the south and the north, and it was clear that they had overused it, and it was no wonder that the Turks dared to make trouble by hitting stones with eggs." Someone disagrees.
"The Turkic rebellion comes largely from the dissatisfaction of the Turkic people, as the saying goes, water can carry a boat and also capsize a boat, so as long as the Turkic people are appeased, they can be calm."
"The problem is that now there is a post-Turkic khanate, and in my opinion, it is enough to send troops directly to level it."
"What does Cui Lang think?" Someone looked at Cui Luo.
"At this point, I personally admire Confucianism and value harmony. When the world is stable, the society can be stable. Besides, everyone knows what the situation of our court is today, and it is not suitable to fight with others, and it is chaotic and easy to change both inside and outside. I think it's better to be appeased. ”
Jing Ci answered, "The idea is good, but unfortunately it doesn't work, can't you marry a princess and kiss again?" The Turkic life is fierce and difficult, and the ambition is very great, and after more than 20 years of exile, they can still gather 700 people to restore the country, which is not something that can be appeased by relatives. ”
"It is true that the Turks have grown year after year, and their appetite is not small, and it is not so easy to appease. The Turks were very troubled by the threat of dynasties and dynasties, and this thorn had to be removed. Li Longji's eyes were blazing.
"It's good to be able to pull it out, but how easy is it? It's definitely not a good time. ”
"At the end of the day, you have to solve your internal worries first."
…………
Everyone at the table expressed their opinions, and the discussion was in full swing.
After a few times, Jing Ci couldn't help but be surprised that there were so many people with insight in this kind of small town of Luzhou, which was far away, and they were all people without official and half-time positions, and it was not only their luck but also Li Longji's luck to be able to enter the Li family's mansion.
The discussion came to an end for the time being, and Jing Ci quietly left the table, planning to walk around to wake up and breathe fresh air, and find a place to relieve himself by the way. The gaze of the person next to her couldn't help but follow her, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, until the person in the other seat called him several times before he came back to his senses.
Jing Ci looked at it while strolling, this mansion is well planned, and the area of the house and the garden occupies half of the area, which shows that the owner likes the garden very much, and his daily activities are in the garden. Gradually, there was a faint voice ahead...... After Jing Ci walked a few steps, he saw a few women in skirts not far away.
"What does it mean to wave your hand? Didn't you tell the prince that I was unwell? Even though it was a reprimand, the woman's voice was very beautiful.
The slave said, but ...... The prince is having a banquet with friends in Defeng Pavilion......"
"The prince is always like this! Once you arrive at Defeng Pavilion, no one can call back! The woman's tone was annoyed.
"The lady doesn't have to worry, the slave maid just noticed that there are all Langjun in the Defeng Pavilion, and there are no geisha."
The woman's beautiful face showed a little arrogance, "I have entered the mansion, who in Luzhou can enter the eyes of the prince?" And whose voice can enter the ears of the prince? ”
"The prince now favors Zhao Niang, not to mention the geisha, that is, the princess and Liu Niang have to stand aside."
"What's the use of that! I'm still not as good as those Tian Shehan! Hmph, the prince treats them as Buddhas, don't say that the princess and the eldest son, even me, are not important to him at all......"
…………
The original person in Li Longji's back house, Jing Ci was not interested in this, so he turned around and took a detour.
