Li Heng was ecstatic in his heart, but he knew that he couldn't show it publicly.

He took a step back, nodded to Zhang Xuan, and then took Zhang Liangdi and the others back to the East Palace.

It's just that when I came, I was in a sad mood, and when I left, I was full of ambition.

Zhang Xuan's ability is obvious to all, and he is currently trusted and reused by the emperor. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Zhang Xuan is an important force that the old emperor has focused on cultivating and supporting to assist the new monarch, and his future is inevitable. As long as Zhang Xuanken is on the side of the East Palace, the possibility of Li Heng's ascension to the throne has greatly increased.

On the way, Zhang Liangdi said softly, "Zhang Xuan is now on the rise, arrogant and arrogant, and he no longer takes His Royal Highness in his eyes." ”

Yu Chaoen, the chief eunuch of the East Palace who followed Zhang Liangdi's car, also echoed softly, "Your Highness, now General Zhang is powerful and has the potential to suppress Yang Guozhong...... It is inevitable that young people will have ambitions and higher morale. ”

Li Heng's brows suddenly tightened, and he scolded in a low voice, "Shut up!" Zizhan is the same as ever to this palace, if you wait for more nonsense, this palace will not be spared! ”

Zhang Liang pouted, but he didn't dare to say anything more.

"Yu Chaoen, you are a slave of the inner prison, and you dare to criticize being an important minister of the court...... How can this be reasonable, come here, drag this dog thief down to the palace, and punish him with a rod for thirty! ”

Yu Chaoen was shocked, fell to his knees with a pop, and cried, "Your Highness spares your life, the little one has always been loyal to His Highness...... Your Highness spares your life! ”

"Liangdi saves the slave ......"

It's just telling the truth, Zhang Liangdi didn't know why Li Heng was so angry, frowned and pleaded lightly for Yu Chaoen, "Your Highness, Yu Chaoen has always been loyal and cautious, and occasionally gaffes—please forgive him for the sake of his concubine." ”

Li Heng snorted coldly, brushed his sleeves away, and left a cruel sentence before leaving, "In the future, anyone who dares to speak falsely or disrespect the general will be killed!" ”

Yu Chaoen collapsed to the ground, breaking out in a cold sweat.

The group of people in the East Palace left without mentioning it, and said that Zhang Xuan left the palace and returned home.

When I got back to the house, it was already evening. Zhang Xuan changed into a green shirt and a plain robe under the waiter of smoke and jade, and prepared to go out of the house to visit the night scene of Chang'an, which can be regarded as a distraction.

Out of **, seeing Zhou Xuchu standing there respectfully, he couldn't help but smile slightly, "Zhou Changshi, but are you waiting for this official?" ”

"General, the lower officials have something to do with the general." Zhou Xuchu told Yang Guozhong, Sheng Wang Li Qi, Princess Xianyi, and Mrs. Qiu Guo about the congratulatory gifts and servants and maids sent by each of them in the afternoon, and when he heard Zhou Xuchu's placement, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but nod secretly.

He really didn't mistake this Zhou Xuchu, calm and sophisticated, and he was indeed a reusable auxiliary official. Next, what he needs to investigate again is Zhou Xuchu's loyalty.

"Good." Zhang Xuan smiled and nodded, "I'm tired of the history of the week." The defense of Gyeonggi is in the process of being handed over, and the official also has to take care of the Yamen of Gyeongzhao Mansion, and the affairs of the General's Mansion are complicated, and Zhou Changshi has to worry a lot. If you are sure that you are not sure, you can report to me. ”

Seeing Zhang Xuan go out, Zhang Li, who had been transferred from Zhang Huan's mansion to the general's mansion, hurriedly followed with a few domestic servants. But before Zhang Xuan went out, he heard a report from the porter, saying that several officials from the yamen of Jingzhao Mansion were respectfully asking to see him outside the door.

At this moment, Zhang Xuan is also the Yin of Jingzhao Mansion, and many affairs of Jingzhao Mansion fall on his shoulders.

Zhang Xuan smiled bitterly, turned his head and turned to the back door with tension.

With the bustling flow of businessmen, Zhang Xuan walked towards the West Market, and saw the guests of Juxiang Pavilion, one of the top restaurants in Chang'an City, coming and going, and a strong aroma of wine came in, which aroused Zhang Xuan's appetite.

Speaking of this era for so long, I really haven't calmed down to taste the unique delicacies of Datang. Although he participated in a lot of upper-class drinking banquets, the focus on that occasion was not on food, and he couldn't eat much at all.

"Zhang Li, how about we go in and order some wine and food?" Zhang Xuan looked back at Zhang Zhang and smiled.

"Okay, Son." Zhang Li is still used to calling Zhang Xuan his son.

Zhang Xuan smiled, and walked into the Juxiang Pavilion with Zhang Li.

The first floor was overcrowded, so I had no choice but to go up to the second floor. But the same is true in the lobby on the second floor, with only a desk in a secluded corner.

"Tang Xuan, are there any private rooms? My father-in-law wants to use some wine and food. Zhang Li stopped a sweaty guy who was busy serving food, and the guy touched a handful of sweat and shook his head and said, "Guest officer, the private rooms are full." Guests want to eat and drink, and only there is a seat. ”

Zhang Zhang frowned, "Xindao, with the current status of the prince, how can he stay in the hall and dine with an ordinary drinker?" This chaotic coax, I'm afraid I'm going to disturb the son's Yaxing!

Zhang Zhang was about to say something, but Zhang Xuan smiled indifferently and walked straight to the idle case.

Zhang Li's servants were helpless and had to keep up.

I sat down and ordered a few dishes, and I updated the fastest pot of wine, but it was not delivered. Zhang Zhang was worried that Zhang Xuan would be impatient, so he called the guy to reprimand him. Zhang Xuan gave him a look and signaled him not to be in a hurry and wait slowly.

There was a lot of commotion around, the sound of guessing fists, shouting, the sound of cups clashing, presumptuous or rough laughter, mixed together, and because of the large number of people in the hall, the air was turbid, and there was a certain peculiar smell. Even Zhang Zhang felt a little aggrieved, but when he looked down, he saw that his master was calm and smiling silently, with his eyes slightly closed, as if he was recuperating.

Bang!

There was a loud bang, and all the drinkers turned their heads in surprise.

On the corridor opposite the lobby, the door of a private room was kicked open, and a young man dressed in a gorgeous head with a red flower stood there frowning and shouted, "What are you yelling about? Hurry up and get out of the way, don't disturb the adults' Yaxing! ”

The people who use wine and food in the hall are ordinary drinkers, that is, ordinary people and businessmen in Chang'an City, the Huanghuang Imperial Capital at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and the people living in this city have a little eyesight, seeing that this young man in gorgeous clothes is extraordinary, he guessed that it was the son of the powerful in Chang'an, so they all lowered their heads, did not dare to fight, and ate and drank with their heads bored, but they accelerated their speed.

From the corner at that end, two brocade-clothed house slaves hurriedly came, standing in the hall and waving their hands to drive everyone away, "Hurry up and settle the bill and get out, my son-in-law is entertaining distinguished guests, don't wait to retreat quickly!" ”

A group of drinkers dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, and when they looked at each other, some people began to get up and leave unwillingly.

Zhang Xuan frowned slightly, and said indifferently, "Zhang Li, what kind of person is this, so domineering?" ”

Zhang Li bowed down and lowered his voice and said, "Son, the person just now seems to be Han Yan, the grandson of the former prince and young master Han Xiu and the son of Han Shilang of the Ministry of Industry. ”

Zhang Xuan sighed, but glanced at the two house slaves.

The two house slaves looked over at a glance and saw Zhang Xuan sitting there without moving, and reprimanded loudly, "That person, hurry up, hurry up!" Why don't you leave after eating, why do you stay here and make a noise? 、。

Zhang Li raised his head angrily and sneered, "My son-in-law's wine and food haven't been served yet, what are you going to do?" ”

These two house slaves are actually not the slaves of the Han Long family, but the people of Yang Qian's mansion, the commander of the horses. Today, Yang Jian and Princess Taihua's sons Yang Yu and Han Yu are doing the east together, and Yang Lian, who has just been promoted to the commander of the Jinwu Guards and Horses and General Longwu, is naturally accompanied by his family.

Don't look at Yang Jian personally does not have much power, but after all, he is a concubine of the dynasty, the so-called prime minister's family is comparable to a seven-grade official, and it is normal for the family members of the concubine family to be high-spirited.

Seeing that the family of the scribe in front of him dared to "talk back", the slaves of the Horse Mansion, who had always been domineering, couldn't bear it anymore, and came forward with a scolding and scolding.

It is said that these wealthy domestic slaves are very knowledgeable and good at observing words and feelings. But the Tang Dynasty was also the era of clothing, and they mostly looked at people from their clothes, and when they saw Zhang Xuan dressed ordinary, the two slaves didn't pay much attention to it. Otherwise, it is to give them a leopard guts, and they will not dare to come over and provoke.

Zhang Li's heart is also high now, because his master is now powerful. Seeing these two brocade-clothed house slaves rushing up, Zhang Zhang was not to be outdone and "greeted" them.

Zhang Xuan frowned, patted the table lightly, and said indifferently, "Zhang Li, come back!" ”

When Zhang Li heard this, he didn't dare to say anything, so he had to go around again hatefully.

"This Juxiang Pavilion is open to welcome guests, and it is not your private property. We are here to use wine and food, it is only right, you are so aggressive, are you not too deceitful? As soon as Zhang Xuan's words came out, he immediately aroused the echo of some good deeds.

"That's, that's it, why are you driving us away?"

"It just doesn't make sense! It's too much to deceive people......"

The two house slaves were annoyed and angry, and they were about to have a seizure, but when they saw the door of the private room being pushed open, the young man in Chinese clothes and another tall and beautiful young man in Chinese clothes came out side by side, glanced over here, and said in a deep voice, "What's the matter?" ”

When the two brocade-clothed slaves saw their master come out, their hearts were strong, so they ran over and pointed at Zhang Xuan and muttered a few words.

Han Yu and Yang Zuo are considered "classmates", the two studied under the Confucian Meng Xuezhang in Shuzhong, and studied in Chengdu for several years. Because he returned to Beijing not long ago, he was not familiar with Zhang Xuan.

Yang is the son of the princess, and he is noble, so there is no need to say that he is arrogant. He walked over slowly, looked at Zhang Xuan coldly, and said in a deep voice, "We have chartered this hall, if you want to use wine and food, you can go downstairs." Today, we are here to entertain distinguished guests, so please wait and avoid it. ”

In Yang Zuo's opinion, he was so patient to "talk well" to Zhang Xuan, which could be regarded as giving the other party a big face.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Xuan didn't bird him at all. He sat there quietly with an indifferent expression, waiting for the guy to serve the food. In fact, the guy had already been hiding with a plate of dishes, where did he dare to come and serve him food?

Han Cheng was a little angry, pointed at Zhang Xuan and reprimanded, "Young Master Yang is talking to you...... Are you deaf? ”

Zhang Xuan originally just wanted to have a lively meal to spice up his mood, but he unexpectedly encountered this kind of thing again, and his interest was greatly reduced.
