Chapter 148: Going to the Tan Family

On the twentieth day of the twelfth lunar month, it began to snow early in the morning, and there was no wind, and the snow was fine and dense, falling on the ground in a thick layer.

At noon, the snow stopped, the sun came out, go out to see, the sky and the earth are white, the trees are full of crystal flowers, it is a good time for three or five friends to get together to drink and chant poems, and enjoy the snow on the piano.

After noon, Wen Sheng packed up and took the car with Yunlu to the National Teacher's Mansion for a banquet.

The National Teacher's Mansion is not far from Xuanyin Pavilion Street, only one street away.

The Tan family has a large family, plus relatives, friends, apprentices, and guards must have a place to live, and the entire National Teacher's Mansion has been expanded several times in the past twenty or thirty years, occupying most of the street.

The courtyard inside the high wall is deep, nine curves are continuous, to say a big disrespectful word, it is only a small place than the imperial city, and the layout can not exceed the rules, and it is not bad to talk about the magnificence, quiet and mysterious.

Wen Sheng arrived a little earlier than the time on the post, and there were already a lot of carriages parked outside the gate.

She took out the post, found the door, and led the two to Tan Jinhua's residence.

Tan Jinhua has been married, the status of the grandson of the long house is extraordinary, living in a large courtyard on the east side of the National Teacher's Mansion, which is conspicuous and spacious.

Wen Sheng was led into the flower hall, only to find that the top ten were almost all there, only she and Zhong Tianzheng were missing.

Xiang Jiarong saw her come in and stood up to greet her.

It can be seen that Tan Jinhua often treats guests, the master has a casual attitude, and the servants are well-trained, and he is also accustomed to it.

The brothers of the Tan family were surrounded by the musicians who arrived early in Xuanyin Pavilion, talking and laughing, and the apprentices who were invited this time were all coming for the first time. Seeing that everything is new in the National Teacher's Mansion, this is the home of Tan Lao Guoshi, just thinking about it makes me awe-struck, and then I see that several musicians on the seat are very familiar with each other, including the fifth son, who are the main examiners of this selection, and they don't even dare to speak loudly.

Tan Yaohua saw Wen Sheng come in. I came over to say hello.

Wen Sheng didn't see Zhong Tianzheng. A little strange, Tan Yaohua saw her looking left and right, and explained her confusion: "Brother Zhong came early in the morning. I was found by my father just now, and I guess it will take a while to come back. ”

It is not a bad thing to be summoned by Tan Yaohua's father, Mr. Tan Ruide.

Sure enough, Tan Yaohua smiled again: "When my father came back from the Silk Tong Palace, he was full of praise for Brother Zhong's talent and understanding. I think he was moved and wanted to take on an apprentice seriously. ”

"Ahh Wen Sheng was a little surprised when he heard this.

Tan Yaohua knows Zhong Tianzheng's details. How could he not only not stop this, but also be happy to see it happen?

It's just that friends have made friends, Zhong Tianzheng and Mr. Tan Er have become masters and apprentices, and his relationship with the Tan family is too close. According to what he did, if something happened in the future, it would affect Tan Yaohua's father and son.

Tan Yaohua saw that Wen Sheng wanted to speak and stopped. Knowing what she was worried about, she said, "Brother Zhong is open-minded. If an elder can always explain and guide him, it will be of great benefit to him to untie the knot, don't worry, if this matter is done, I will stay in Beijing for a while longer. ”

Wen Sheng secretly thought: I'm afraid that you may not be able to see him. But when it comes to this, she can't show what Zhong Tianzheng has done, and then she reminds her, so she looks like a villain, so she has to give up.

She wanted to "be frank and honest to friends", the nine-character comment was not close to Zhong Tianzheng at all, and it was very suitable for Tan Yaohua to use it on himself.

She put this matter down, asked Tan Yaohua to introduce her, and went to the front to express her gratitude to his brothers for their help two days ago, in front of outsiders, Wen Sheng did not point out the cause and effect, but only thanked him vaguely, and his attitude was very sincere.

Those few didn't say anything special, only Tan Jinhua smiled and said: "Oh, don't be polite, aren't we all aiming at Xiao Wu." Don't be restrained when you come today, I'm very casual here, and I can toss as much as I want. ”

He said that this was true, except for the first apprentices, the others were in groups of three or five, talking and laughing, and some even talked about finding a corner and calling the attendants to bring musical instruments to demonstrate.

Zhong Tianzheng thought differently, today's banquet seems to be only related to sound, and it has nothing to do with sex, dogs, and horses.

Wen Sheng was about to retreat after saying thank you, but Tan Yaohua suddenly asked: "Miss Gu, I was in a hurry yesterday, I didn't have time to ask, your hand ......?"

Wen Sheng felt that there was such a big movement in the Tiger Roaring Tower, it was impossible for the Tan family not to hear about it, not to mention that the person who led her to the eldest prince's house that day was Tan Yaohua's attendant, and it was in his name.

I haven't seen any sign of the man today.

Colluding with outsiders behind the back of the master's family is a taboo everywhere.

Wen Sheng briefly told him how he was injured, Tan Yaohua was not doing well, and when he attracted the attention of Tan Jinhua on the side, his expression slowly became strict, and he was about to speak, when a group of guests came in from outside the flower hall, and interrupted him.

This time, it was the musicians of Xuanyin Pavilion who came, and there were several acquaintances of Wen Sheng.

The leader is the "Valley Cold Spring" Fei Wenyou.

I haven't seen her for a long time, Fei Wenyou's attitude is very different from before, he humbly greeted several sons of the Tan family, and when he saw Wen Sheng beside him, he nodded at her and smiled.

Wen Sheng thought that Fei Wenyou and Fei Wenyou could not be called a holiday, at most they disagreed on the concept of views, so that they did not like each other, since Fei Wenyou expressed goodwill at this time, she also stepped forward to salute and said: "Mr. Fei, we meet again." ”

A trace of discomfort flashed on Fei Wenyou's face, and he replied, "Miss Gu, don't come unharmed." ”

He paused for a moment, and then said, "Miss Gu, I heard that Qi Qin is with you now, when it is convenient, can you introduce a few of my senior brothers to meet him." ”

Only then did Wen Sheng realize that Fei Wenyou and the others had changed their arrogance to themselves today, not only because she won the champion in this selection, but also because she would be a member of the Xuanyin Pavilion in the future, but also because Qi Qin and Yun Lu killed the mad dog Shang Qi and avenged the murder of several of them.

This time, the Tan family brothers went out to get the consent of Tan Lao Guoshi, and presumably the cause and effect of Shouyang also accounted for a large factor.

It's just that a few of them want to see Qi Qin, but Qi Qin may not be willing to see them.

Wen Sheng replied solemnly: "Old Qi has been seriously injured and is currently trying to find a way to heal it, if you want to see it, I'm afraid it's not very convenient, Yun Luyun Daxia, who fought hard and stabbed Shang Qi that day, is in the Warm Pavilion at the moment, Mr. Fei wants to see it?" ”

Fei Wenyou hesitated.

Tan Yaohua said: "Let's go, let's go and thank you together." ”

Just looking at the reactions of Fei Wenyou and the others, Wen Sheng guessed their thoughts.

In the consciousness of these people, the people in the rivers and lakes who defected to the musician were just attendants and subordinates, so they completely credited Qi Qin with the credit for killing Shang Qi, and asked them to go and thank Yunlu, which was really a bit condescending.

It is easy to change a person's attitude, but it is difficult to change his mind.

That's it, anyway, Wen Sheng didn't plan to have a deep friendship with them, and no matter whether Qi Qin or Yun Lu killed Shang Qi at the beginning, they didn't have the intention of avenging Shouyang, let alone expecting to repay.

When the group came out of the warm pavilion, it was inevitable that they would talk about "Xi Shengpu" because of the Shouyang incident.

I don't know what era the "Xi Sound Spectrum" in this world has been handed down, but before Tan Lao Guoshi and his Miaoyin Eight Methods stood alone in the world, no one noticed that there was still a "Xi Sound Spectrum".

I don't know where the rumors came from, in the past few decades, there have been occasional "Xi Shengpu" out, most of which are fragments, because no one has ever understood the secrets, so that those who get it cannot determine its authenticity.

Not to mention other places, the National Teacher's Mansion has treasured a few articles, but the National Teacher feels that this thing is like a flower in the moon and water in the mirror, if he does not have enough concentration, rashly studying, it is easy to go astray, so except for himself, no one else can take it lightly.

Until this time, Shouyang got "Xi Shengpu".

I don't know if this "Xisheng Spectrum" is complete, but it is rare to make a volume, Shouyang once mentioned it to his eldest disciple Fei Wenyou, and there are a total of nine music scores in it.

Although he didn't show the score to his disciples, he had repeatedly played the music in the days before he was killed, and Fei Wenyou and several other disciples wrote down the melody intentionally or unintentionally.

After Fei Wenyou and others returned to Beijing, they reported to the National Teacher, and Tan Lao Guoshi corroborated it with the collection of the National Teacher's Mansion, and immediately found out two music scores.

These two songs, one is "Sailing" that Wen Sheng saw later at Gao Qi's house, and the other is about all of them except Wen Sheng.

In their opinion, this is an unknown puzzle like a mirror, and the ready-made eight methods of Miaoyin are enough for them to devote their lives to study, so they don't look very seriously, but Wen Sheng is different, as soon as she heard that the Tan family also has a ready-made "Xisheng Spectrum", it is like a hundred claws scratching her heart.

Everyone returned to the flower hall, Zhong Tianzheng had already returned, and was sitting and talking with Xiang Jiarong and others.

He has a good demeanor, and is polite in conversation, and it is easy to make people feel good, although during this time the apprentices could not find him at every party, but when they sat down and said a few words, they felt that the sense of strangeness was completely gone, and they hated to see each other late, and the conversation was very speculative.

When Zhong Tianzheng saw Tan Yaohua and Wen Sheng coming in, he got up with a smile and came over to say hello.

Tan Yaohua asked quietly, "How?" ”

Zhong Tianzheng knew what he was asking, and said with a smile: "The elder is generous and amiable, but I don't know if he is satisfied with Zheng." ”

Tan Yaohua and Wen Sheng both felt that looking at Zhong Tianzheng's expression, it was estimated that the matter was almost done.

Wen Sheng couldn't hold it back, took a look, and asked Tan Yaohua: "Brother Tan, I heard that there is also a song "Xi Shengpu" in the house, I don't know if I can borrow it?" (To be continued) R655
