Stack incense and agarwood are from the same tree, with its texture with or without black veins to distinguish, stack incense can be regarded as agarwood, its taste is similar to agarwood, but with wood, into the water does not sink, the quality is far inferior to agarwood, is the inferior product of agarwood; Yellow ripe incense also belongs to the category of stack incense, the quality is lighter, and the smell is blurred......

In the incense tasting room of Kou Meilin, because all the merchants and incense envoys who came today, the incense master on the incense seat routinely let the guests come taste it for a while, and then left after a few casual words.

An Lan packed up her pen and ink, and Lu Yunxian wanted to inquire about Jing Yan's whereabouts, so she asked her to stay here and wait for her, and then got up and went out.

As soon as Lu Yunxian left, Ma Guixian, who had been sitting opposite her and had been paying attention to her, immediately got up, walked over with a flattering smile, and bowed to An Lan: "I didn't expect to see Miss An Lan here today, I don't know if Miss An Lan still remembers." ”

An Lan didn't get up, she still knelt in front of the incense case, raised her face slightly, and glanced at him: "Boss Ma." ”

Ma Guixian immediately smiled into a flower: "It's rare that Miss An Lan still remembers that she is here, and she is honored to be here, and she is honored!" ”

An Lan's expression was indifferent: "I was almost punished by the criminal court yesterday, how can I forget." ”

Ma Gui was busy and deeply moved, and then took the initiative to kneel next to An Lan, with a face full of apologies: "I came here to explain this matter to Miss An Lan, and said that yesterday's incident was forced by Chen Lu to do this." Zai Xia is just a small businessman, with no power and no power, and he has an old mother to support at home, so he has to listen to her, which is really not what he wants. After going back yesterday, I was really remorseful in my heart, regretting that I shouldn't have let Miss An Lan suffer so many grievances in vain, and hated Chen Lu's woman for being vicious, obviously it was her own fault, but she wanted to blame others, fortunately, Yang Dian's eyes were as fair and strict as a torch, and she didn't let Miss An Lan be wronged, which was really fortunate! ”

An Lan waited until he finished speaking, then raised her eyes and looked behind him.

Just now, Ma Guixian sat down, and Chen Lu came in from outside, stood behind him, and listened to his words word for word. An Lan saw Chen Lu, but did not remind Ma Guixian, and only after Ma Guixian finished speaking, she stood up and bowed to Chen Lu: "Chen Xiang." ”

Ma Guixian was startled, hurriedly turned his head, and saw Chen Lutie standing behind him with a blue face, he was stunned, and he was stupid there for a while.

Chen Lu took a step forward and lowered his eyes to look at Ma Guixian, his eyes showing a fierce light.

An Lan quietly took two steps back, leaving the place to them. Ma Guixian came back to his senses after being startled, and was deeply afraid that Chen Lu would have a seizure here, so he quickly stood up, glanced at both sides, and then lowered his voice and said to Chen Lu: "Chen Xiang, now that our well water does not interfere with river water, you know your current situation best, don't make everyone's faces look good." ”

After Yang Dian's attendant escorted Chen Lu to the criminal court yesterday, Ma Guixian knew that it would be difficult for Chen Lu to do anything in the future. Therefore, after coming out of Yuanxiangyuan, he immediately came to Koumeilin, spent a sum of money ruthlessly, gave another steward a generous gift, and invited a familiar colleague to pull the line, so that he had a relationship with that steward. The status of the steward in Kou Meilin is the same as Chen Lu's uncle, so Ma Guixian can be regarded as raising his eyebrows in front of Chen Lu now.

Chen Lu looked at him for a while, and it wasn't until Ma Guixian's eyes began to dodge left and right that she said: "The surname is Ma, feng shui takes turns, thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, you remember, there is a day when you have to turn back and beg me." ”

At this time, there were still more than a dozen people sitting scattered in the Pinxiang room, and some people were already looking over here, because An Lan retreated early, so they only looked at Chen Lu and Ma Guixian with doubts, and Ma Guixian became more and more uncomfortable. After Chen Lu said this, he glanced at An Lan again, his eyes were not good, but he didn't say anything, and turned around and went out.

Ma Guixian breathed a sigh of relief, and then turned his face to An Lan and smiled. An Lan just looked at it coldly, just when Lu Yunxian came back, Ma Guixian didn't dare to provoke Lu Yunxian, turned around and quietly returned to his seat, said hello to a few peers, and went out of the incense room.

"Let's go." After Lu Yunxian came in, she didn't explain much, and only asked An Lan to go out with her.

The whole Koumei Forest is a microcosm of the wealth and elegance of Chang'an City, and the literati have a sentence of "the moonlight lights are full of the imperial capital, and the incense car treasure is passed through the pass", which describes the life of the noble people of Tianhuang and the rich families of Houmen.

Chang'an night, drunk.

Sleepy forest, raw.

Pin Jinding, dream.

Don't think of returning, die.

A dream in the world, life and death, are all staged in this forest in turn.

Unconsciously, I walked to the side of Yixin Garden, and everywhere I passed, there were like brocade flowers. Lu Yunxian quickened his pace, and his figure disappeared into the flowers, and disappeared in an instant. An Lan followed the path and looked forward, and after a while, she really saw a corner of the rain pavilion, there was an incense case in the pavilion, and there was a son sitting behind the incense case, and there were three things on the incense case.

It seems that because of the clothing preferences of the great incense master, the incense master in the sleeping forest also wears many plain clothes, such as the person in her memory, cold and elegant, every action contains a luxurious charm, like the incense in the furnace that is easy to intoxicate and elusive.

But the people in the pavilion are dressed in red, with long hair like ink, lined with strong flowers behind them, and they are so unscrupulous that people lose their minds for a moment.

Jing Yan picked up the silver leaf with a silver leaf clip, gently placed it on the fire window in the incense ash, and then pressed the silver leaf slightly to fix it, and then raised his eyes to look at An Lan, his lips went up, and then a smile waved at the corner of his eyebrows: "It's you again, I remember, you owe me a favor yesterday." ”

An Lan bowed outside the pavilion: "I've seen Jing Gongzi." ”

Jing Yan bowed: "Come up." ”

An Lan lowered her head into the rain pavilion, Jing Yan took a incense spoon and took a piece of incense about the size of half a peanut kernel and placed it on the silver leaf, and then glanced at her again, with a bit of banter in her eyes: "You came to repay my favor on purpose?" ”

An Lan was a little stunned, and after a while, she lowered her face and said with a slight embarrassment: "The son is a gentleman, and the gentleman is himself, respecting others without having to see respect, and loving people without having to see love." ”

Jing Yan's eyes were slightly different, and then he smiled: "You will bring me a high hat, and you still read such a sentence, have you read a book?" ”

An Lan's face was hot: "I just recognized some words with my mother-in-law who had studied in the courtyard." ”

"It's also rare." Jing Yan smiled, then picked up the incense burner in his hand and motioned for her to come over, "You come and smell it." ”

An Lan stepped forward cautiously, knelt in front of her, raised her arms, took the incense burner handed over, held it in front of her nose, blocked it with her right hand, exhaled softly, inhaled slowly, and the faint cold incense broke in from her nose, and her mind was in a trance for a moment.

An Lan was shocked, and the hand holding the incense burner almost shook, this, this incense!

"How?" Jing Yan was still smiling, but it was impossible to tell what he meant at this time.

An Lan slowly put down the incense burner in her hand, not daring to smell it again, she knew what kind of effect this incense would play if she smelled too much, because it was this incense that she gave Ma Gui a spare order that day. The first time she saw this incense was when she was ten years old, when Granny Ann took the wrong incense due to a cold and dizziness, so she smelled it. She still remembers that the person was awake at that time, but it was like falling into a dream, and he was completely unaware of what was happening around him, and his thoughts were extremely confused afterwards.

Of course, the incense that Jing Yan gave her at this time tasted more refined than the incense she gave Ma Gui leisurely. It's just that this place is ventilated on all sides, and it is not a place to taste incense, and the amount he has just taken is very small, so the effect is very small. And she, in addition to having an almost instinctive sensitivity to these fragrant tastes, also has a feeling that even she can't explain.

It seems that in that fragrant, remote, and incomprehensible vast world, you can vaguely touch its rules.

"Very good......" Jing Yan was still waiting for her answer, An Lan was so shocked in her heart that she couldn't think of how to evaluate this incense for a while, so she was stunned for a long time, and actually said these two words dryly. As soon as the words came out, she saw the banter in Jing Yan's eyes, and she wanted to bite off her tongue.

However, compared to these embarrassments and embarrassments, she wanted to know what Jing Yan meant by smelling this incense for her, and where did he get this incense?

Jing Yan didn't break her, and then asked, "Do you know how this incense is combined?" ”

An Lan was startled again, and the calm look on her face finally faded.

He, that day, really knew what she was doing?
