Chapter 108: The Real Contest (Part II)

Huan took the letter and took it directly into his arms without looking at it, Pei Mingyuan was a little surprised to take a look? ”

"Pei Xiangguo's letter needs to be quietly savored, and now that I read it in the restaurant, isn't it disrespectful to Pei Xiang?"

Zhang Huan smiled and bowed to him, "It was Pei Gongzi who helped him that night, and Zhang Huan was grateful." ”

"When the road is uneven, just draw a knife to help!" Pei Mingyuan smiled slightly, he stared into Zhang Huan's eyes and said, "If my Pei family also encounters this situation, General Zhang will definitely not stand idly by, right?" ”

"Of course, if I encounter it, I will naturally draw a knife to help."

When Zhang Huan said this, he clenched his fists and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Pei Gongzi, I still have a friend waiting upstairs, I'm afraid I can't talk for a long time, I think Pei Gongzi must have other things to do when he invites me, please just say it." ”

Pei Mingyuan nodded, and said with a faint smile: "Actually, it's not a big deal, we found that the victory of Lanling Music Fang in this Sanjin Song Meeting is quite subtle, they spent at least 30,000 yuan, it is really puzzling, the general may wish to pay attention to it." ”

After saying that, he gave a salute and led the people away.

Zhang Huan sat down slowly, of course what Pei Mingyuan said would not be a trivial matter, from the fact that they could kill ten assassins, it could be inferred that they knew Cui Yuan's arrangements well, and now they told themselves that there was a problem with Lanling Music Fang, which meant that Cui Yuan's next move.

"Lanling Music Place?" Zhang Huan closed his eyes and pondered, after the last time that opponent made him suffer a loss, he was silent again. Of course, he will command Zhang Ruojin behind his back, but Zhang Huan has a hunch that this person will not disappear, he will inevitably take action, and from his Yellow River water ghost to the night attack of the villa, it can be seen that he is a big deal, and there are dozens or even hundreds of people at every turn, so Lanling Music Fang is very likely to be his next big deal.

But the dispute between the head of the Zhang family has been settled. There's no point in moving again, isn't his goal?

Zhang Huan suddenly understood Cui Yuan's true purpose of pointing at Hedong this time.

.

Lanling Orchestra is located in the east of the city, with nearly 200 pianists and dancers, and is one of the eight major orchestras in Hedong. At this time, the annual Sanjin Music Festival has come to an end, and Lanling Music Workshop has sprung up and taken away the crown of this year's music meeting, which surprised everyone.

At the moment, the music square is very lively. Everyone's face is full of excitement, and winning the crown means that they will have a prosperous business in the coming year, which means they will have more income.

In a small building in the Le Fang. Li Chuanyun stood in front of the window and stared silently into the distance, she had changed out of her Taoist robe and was wearing a bright and gorgeous skirt. He wore a high bun on his head. Heavy makeup on his face.

She is the eldest daughter of the former crown prince. She was named the princess of Changyue by the first emperor, and the first emperor died that day. A sudden storm hit the Tang court, and her father and all her relatives died overnight.

Today she has been waiting for sixteen years, sixteen years ago she still remembers clearly, when she was eight years old, that day countless soldiers rushed into the palace, killed her mother, killed all her brothers and sisters, the nurse held her and hid in a dry well to escape with her life, she stayed in the dry well for two days and two nights, and then met Cui Yuan, Cui Yuan hid her.

But the cold crescent moon on the dry well has been haunting her heart for many years.

As she grew up, when she was a monk at the age of sixteen, she finally knew that the murderer who killed them was today's Tang Dynasty Emperor Li Xian, and Zhang Liang, who was hiding in the deep palace, that is, the current Queen Mother.

Since then, hatred has sprouted in her heart, she is eager to avenge her parents every day, revenge has become the whole of her life, until more than 20 days ago, Xiangguo suddenly found her and told her that Li was going to Taiyuan, and her opportunity for revenge finally came.

The sky was gradually getting to dusk, Li Chuyundi's gaze slowly retracted, she walked to the couch, and took out a jasper flute from a bag, which was given to her by Cui Yuan when he left.

At this time, she inadvertently saw the mirror, and a beautiful lady appeared in the mirror, Li Chuanyun frowned slightly, she didn't like makeup, and she didn't like to wear such gorgeous clothes, which made her uncomfortable.

"Someone!"

A maid walked in outside the door, "Please give me orders." ”

"Go get me a basin of water."

"Yes." The maid saluted and turned to leave.

"Wait," Li Chuanyun sighed, "Forget it, don't fetch water." "If she can't even bear this little thing, what revenge can she have.

"Go and call the Golden and Silver Silk!" When I got to the window, the moon had come up, bent as a hook, like the ground I had seen in that dry well sixteen years ago.

"Li Department, I've been waiting for this day for a long time." Her voice was low, as if she had condensed thousands of years of anticipation.

.

In the past, it was already a busy traffic, and a number of officials got off the carriage and accepted the palace Today, the Tang Dynasty Emperor will invite Taiyuan officials above the sixth grade to show their reward for staying in the northern capital, Taiyuan Yin, Shaoyin, Record Shi Participate in the Military, Six Cao Participate in the Military and Taiyuan Prefecture County Order, in addition to these ministers, there are many retired ministers living in Taiyuan, as well as idle officials with knighthoods, in addition, the Li Department also specially invited ten old people over 90 years old.

In the Qilin Hall of Jinyang Palace, there is a long row of banquets on the left and right, the banquet is full of all kinds of exquisite dishes, there are only dozens of palace maids and eunuchs in Jinyang Palace, and they can't undertake such a large-scale feast, these wines and dishes are provided by the famous restaurants in Taiyuan, for this reason, they are specially closed for a day, and they have done their best.

Before the hour came, and the Son of Heaven had not yet appeared, the officials gathered in groups to whisper, and most of the topics discussed were the Sanjin Qu Gathering held in the past few days and the polo tournament that was about to start in Chang'an.

Because there are not many officials to come, Zhang Huan and Zhu Jun are fortunate to be seated, although the two are both four-grade generals, but Zhang Huan has a knighthood, and his status is much higher than Zhu Jun, at this moment he was pulled by a thin old man, this old man is the master of King Jin, named Qu Ziyou, he is an out-and-out polo gambling fan, every year in the polo tournament bet on thousands of times, but unfortunately never won, every year after the game he has to swear not to gamble, but on that day, all the oaths will be thrown out of the sky as usual, seeing that this year's polo tournament is coming, His gambling addiction returned, and he threw 3,000 yuan in one go on the Polo team of the Longyou Army, citing its top spot last year.

"General Zhang, I just got the news that this year's final top match will be held in the East Inner Garden, do you think the prince of the Long Right Army will not be suitable for hitting the ball with his left hand?"

Qu Ziyou's eyes were full of worry, he still remembered that the top match of the previous year was held in Dongneiyuan, and as a result, the Longyou Army lost to the Hebei Army, he studied it carefully afterwards, and finally came to the conclusion that because the game was held in the morning, the chief of the Longyou Army was shot directly by the sun because it was a left-handed shot, so the hit rate was not high and he lost.

"General Zhang, can you find a way to make the East Inner Garden unable to compete, or let the top match be rescheduled to the afternoon, the old man will be grateful."

Zhang Huan looked at him blankly, his face was so smiling that even his cheeks were a little sore, he wanted to leave, but his arm was tightly held by the other party, it doesn't matter if he can change the playing field now, what matters is who this person is?

"General Zhang!" Chen Xianfu, the head of the chamberlain, hurriedly ran over, he glanced at Qu Ziyou, and whispered to Zhang Huan: "Your Majesty let you pass." ”

Zhang Huan's spirits were greatly lifted, and he said apologetically to the old man in front of him who had too much expectations for him: "The king's order cannot be violated, we will talk about it another day!" ”

"Where does General Zhang live? I'll visit tomorrow! "Fen.

"This.

Zhang Huan dropped a word, and then slipped away with Chen Xianfu, and heard an unwilling voice from afar, "General Zhang, I came to you that night." ”

This sentence has attracted the attention of countless people.

Zhang Huan hurriedly came to the inner palace with Chen Xianfu, Chen Xianfu signaled Zhang Huan to stop, he himself went to report first, Zhang Huan looked at the crack in the door that was not closed, only to see Li was sitting on the couch to listen to the report of the head of Jinyang Palace, his voice was sharp, word for word to Zhang Huan's ears, "Your Majesty, there is no Kabuki in Jinyang Palace, the banquet is a little deserted, the old slave originally planned to invite the top three of the Sanjin Song Festival to perform for His Majesty, just used at the banquet, I don't know if Your Majesty is gracious?" ”

Li was obviously interested, and he smiled and said, "I heard about this when I entered the city, and it was so good, I was right." ”

The head of Jinyang Palace thanked him and hurried there, and heard Chen Xianfu report in a low voice in the room, "Zhang Huan has arrived." ”

"Order him to come in."

Chen Xianfu walked to the door and beckoned to Zhang Huan, "The emperor ordered you to meet you." ”

Zhang Huan tidied up his clothes and strode into the room.

"Minister Zhang Huan, see Your Majesty."

"Sit down!" Li Ji pointed to a soft embroidered cushion next to him and smiled, seeing that he was in a good mood.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhang Huan sat down, he groaned for a while and asked, "Did Your Majesty have a smooth journey?" ”

"It's okay, it's just running all the way, and I'm really tired." At this time, Li Jia's smile had gradually disappeared, and he looked at Zhang Huan with a slightly cold gaze and said, "Why is it that the heir to the head of the Zhang family is not you?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the ministers are concubines, and the clansmen are not allowed."

Li nodded, "I think it should be this reason." ”

He walked a few steps around the room with his hands behind his back, and he suddenly looked up and asked, "I heard a rumor that your mother was Chu Banglan back then, is this true?" ”
