Chapter 312: I'm My Mother's Agent, Six Lang Worships "Shou"
Jingzong's mansion in Luoyang occupies a quarter of the entire workshop, which is considered a huge benefit for the old and important ministers, and even the land belt and the house servants are all packaged and gifted. This workshop is only separated by two streets from Luoyang Palace, not to mention the convenience of entering the palace, and the geographical conditions are also first-class superior. And for Li Xian, Xu Jingzong is next door to his house, which is definitely not a good thing.
That's right, Xiuwenfang and Xiuyefang are only separated by one street, coming out from the back door of King Pei, which is the gate of Xu's house, so Li Xian will receive Xu Jingzong's invitation post at the end of three days, from poetry meetings, flower appreciation, drinking, singing and dancing, and listening to operas...... There are so many excuses. In the end, Li Xian, who likes to visit the door the most on weekdays, almost walked around when he went out.
However, on this day he had to turn into the last street he wanted to pass. As soon as he stopped at the gate of the Xu Mansion, a sharp-eyed servant came up and greeted him with a smile: "Xiangye happened to celebrate Miss Sun's birthday today, and it was a coincidence that His Highness came down." ”
No way? Li Xian's face stiffened suddenly, and he even had the urge to turn the horse's head and gallop away for a while. To say that Xu Jingzong's old fox is not bad, but the problem is that he is too verbose, and what is even more annoying is that he recites his two granddaughters in front of him all day long, which is no different from Tang Seng chanting...... Amitabha, he didn't mean to frame Master Xuanzang, guilty of sin!
He dismounted and left the horses to be cared for by the servants, and he lazily entered the mansion of the Xu family. In the past, when Xiuwenfang Peiwangdi had not been repaired, he often came to this place, but now that he has become a neighbor, he is afraid of this place. If it weren't for something to discuss with Xu Jingzong today. He wouldn't have come to the door anyway.
But. What are you afraid of, why did it become someone's birthday today?
"Ha, Rokuro is really here!"
I saw Xu Jingzong greet him with a smile. Li Xian had no choice but to let others hold his sleeve and involuntarily walked forward. If it comes, it will be safe, anyway, he has seen this battle many times, and it is a big deal to turn a blind eye and turn a deaf ear.
Entering the hall through the hall and entering the hall, Xu Jingzong blasted away the stewards and servants who came up to ask for instructions, and then looked at Li Xian with a look like a fat sheep. In the end, Fang praised: "Li Sikong and Lao Yu are really well-trained disciples, and Liulang is now stopping here, and he is extraordinary!" Well, when the day of the crown is crowned, I don't know how many women will fall in love with it. ”
Although Li Xian had learned to selectively ignore some of Xu Jingzong's words, he couldn't help but roll his eyes at this moment. Since Xu Jingzong snatched the title of the head of King Pei's mansion, he has become more enthusiastic than before, and the two words of His Royal Highness, who was originally slightly alienated, immediately became Liulang. Before, he had only heard of Li Yifu, who had hidden the knife in the smile. He felt that Li Yifu was much easier to deal with than the old man Xu in front of him!
"Ha, by the way, I almost forgot about business." Xu Jingzong braked the car on his own. immediately glanced at Li Xian, "Today is Yan'er's birthday." It was just a family banquet, and I didn't plan to alarm outsiders, so they were all a few regular guests. I just had someone else I'd like to introduce you, and now it's just right. ”
In the face of this veritable slippery old fox, Li Xian had nothing to say, he couldn't find an excuse to leave with his sleeves away, so he could only stay helplessly. Taking advantage of the fact that everyone else was preparing, he casually mentioned yesterday's events, and as a result, Xu Jingzong frowned slightly, and a smile of indifference appeared on his face.
"The reason why people who love to play conspiracy like to use conspiracy is because the power is too small on the bright side, so they can't play the heavenly card, and they can only use the kind of indiscriminate ideas that can't be put on the table. Now that the queen is in power, choosing this time is indeed a bit of a vision, but in fact, there is no need to worry. I, Xu Jingzong, am retired, and I am not a living Bodhisattva! ”
Xu Jingzong's obvious betrayal did not bother Li Xian, and it was impossible to expect this old fox to be as straightforward as Yu Zhining. So, at the invitation of the servants, he came to the back garden side by side with Lao Xu. This kind of thing is very common for the Xu family to hold a banquet in the back garden, just Li Xian, who has drunk wine in this place a few times, and each time he drenched Xu Jingzong to a tincture of cheese.
said that it was a family banquet, but there were indeed very few people - except for Xu Yan, Xu Yao, Xu Yanbo, and a middle-aged man who looked like an official, there were no other outsiders. And seeing Xu Yanbo reminded Li Xian of his letter from the prince's brother - after a lot of nonsense, there was a meaning, that is, to ask about Li Zhi's condition, and by the way, he asked his father about his intention to let his mother govern.
"Ahem!"
A cough broke Li Xian's thoughts, and seeing Xu Jingzong standing in front of the middle-aged man who looked like an official with a smile, he realized that this was probably an introduction, and hurriedly stepped forward. If you look closely, you can see the man in the court, but the name is swirling in my mind, but I can't remember it for a while.
"This is Li Jingxuan, a bachelor of Hongwen Pavilion, Liulang, you often go to court now, you should have seen it. He is the most unsmiling, but his knowledge and rhetoric are top-notch, even His Majesty once praised him! ”
In this year, praise people will praise learning
He is the prime minister, and he is also a beautiful writer and proficient in learning. Xu Jingzong's praise was definitely untrue, he still looked at Li Jingxuan twice, and greeted him very politely.
Sure enough, although Li Jingxuan had a cold and serious face, at this time he showed a smile that did not match that expression, and he was very complimentary. The rest of Li Xian sounded okay, but it deliberately mentioned that Empress Wu was now in power, which gave him a hint of enlightenment in his heart.
It is said that it is Xu Yan's birthday, the dishes during the banquet are sumptuous and the wine is fragrant, and there are stunning Kabuki singing and dancing, coupled with wonderful sheng music, the scene is naturally extraordinary. However, Xu Yan, as today's birthday star, has not received much attention, except for Xu Yao and Xu Yanbo talking a few words from time to time around her, the three really important people are muttering and talking there, and they don't seem to be interested in singing, dancing, drinking and food.
"The dead old man is really talking nonsense, looking like he is here to celebrate your sister's birthday?" Xu Yao's heart was furious when he saw the mysterious three people over there, and he raised his head and poured a glass of wine and muttered beside Xu Yan, "Sister, do you want me to ask him, what gifts have been prepared for you?" ”
"Don't!" Xu Yan came back to her senses from self-pity in an instant, and hurriedly grabbed Xu Yao, who wanted to get up, and scolded in a stern tone that she had never had before, "Since it's grandpa's excuse, why do you bother to debunk it, really don't think it's a good thing at home?" ”
"Humph!" Xu Yao glared at Xu Jingzong and Li Xian over there viciously, and then lowered his head and drank the stuffy wine. Although Xu Yanbo on the side didn't have the heart to watch singing and dancing, and he didn't care about the taste of food and wine at all, he cast his eyes on Xu Jingzong, Li Xian, and Li Jingxuan from time to time, and finally the corners of his mouth showed a wry smile.
Except for what he really values, the old man never cares about any relatives and friends. Judging from today's situation, it is not groundless for outsiders to say that the old man loves King Pei very much.
Thinking of the rumors that were circulating, he suddenly approached Xu Yan and asked in a low voice, "Ah Yan, let me ask you, does grandpa really have that mind for His Royal Highness King Pei?" ”
Xu Yan didn't expect her brother to suddenly ask such a question, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, her face first flushed with a hint of redness, and then turned pale. Pinched her fingers vigorously, and she almost whispered in a mosquito-like voice: "Grandpa once mentioned it, but I don't think His Royal Highness King Pei has that mind at all." Everyone knows that Princess Pei has already been chosen. ”
Xu Yanbo thought about it and felt that it made sense, but looking at the old man's courteous posture, the suspicion in his heart became heavier and heavier. The old man does things most about the word profit, and he will definitely not decide only based on his likes and dislikes, so, is it ......
How did Xu Jingzong know what the three juniors were talking about, he had just partnered with Li Jingxuan, and he was stunned to pour more than a dozen glasses of wine for Li Xian. It was all a fine wine that he sent people to search for in many ways, and it was easy to find, and it was called the ten steps of drunkenness. Although Li Xian said that he didn't fall, looking at the red eyes, it was about the same. All that should have been said just now has been said, including the promotion of Li Jingxuan as a substitute, etc., and what should be done now is another important matter.
"Liulang, you've drunk a lot of this wine, I've heard that you're a great swordsman, why don't you dance now?"
Xu Jingzong said while shouting and ordering someone to take the sword, and immediately threw a look at Li Jingxuan. And the latter knew the elegance when he heard the string song, but he was not good at doing this kind of entertaining thing by nature, and he held back for a long time before he burst out with a sentence: "Humanity is the hero of His Royal Highness King Pei, but I have never seen His Royal Highness dance the sword, and it is a big regret in my life!" ”
"Dancing swords? Not a poem? Good! ”
For the errand that you don't need to use your brains as long as you do it, Li Xian naturally agreed happily. Of course, if Xu Jingzong hadn't been poured to death with that kind of super brew, he wouldn't have agreed so happily. Shaking his head and taking the sword, he shook it twice, and suddenly felt that the weight was not enough, so he immediately threw it aside. As a result, the accuracy of this throw was so poor that it almost hit the three brothers and sisters over there, but fortunately, Xu Yanbo caught it quickly, which saved a catastrophe.
However, no one paid attention to this episode, because Li Xian actually pulled out his own saber suddenly. It was the best thing Li Zhi had turned out of the royal arsenal, and the bright blade alone was not comparable to ordinary swords. As a result, all the servants who served the banquet avoided the sidelines. Seeing Xu Jingzong sitting there with the same expression, Li Jingxuan also stubbornly did not move.
And Xu Yan, Xu Yao, and Xu Yanbo, the three brothers and sisters, didn't move, because all three of them found that Li Xian was very drunk - for anyone who heard that Li Xian had a good amount of alcohol, this was a fresh experience. Many people have seen the scene of Li Xian's impromptu poems, but this drunken sword dance seems to be only the only time in Wangyunlou.
