Chapter 399: Wind Flower and Blood Night

Xiao Zhang's explanation is very detailed, involving all aspects, even those that Master Jin avoids, and the places that are not mentioned, Xiao Zhang also has many additions.

Since then, it has been a day of escape, so he has been treated with such hospitality, Shen Wuyan can't help but have a little more affection for this Xiao Zhang, plus the other party's words are gentle, quite polite, and even very respectful to those guards, so it makes people feel very close.

Listening to Xiao Zhang's accent is much different from Master Jin, after inquiring, I know that it is a Han or a person, so that good feeling is getting stronger and stronger.

The inn had already prepared wine and food, and Xiao Zhang Ben still had other things to do, but he couldn't stand the forced stay of Li Rusong and a few others, so he also stayed and drank a few glasses before leaving.

Probably because of a tense nerve, Shen Wuyan had no appetite, but simply boosted the morale of the soldiers, and explained some rules, such as not getting drunk, not disturbing the people, and going back to the room to rest as soon as he did something.

The room is said to be an ordinary guest room, in fact, it is already very luxurious, the incense in the room is burned, exuding a faint fragrance, among which the yellow rosewood bed cabinet is complete, just like a rich family's bedroom.

Because he was worried about the chaos again, Shen Wuyan couldn't rest well for a few nights, and now sitting on the soft bed, he suddenly became sleepy, and he lay down and fell asleep for a long time.

This sleep was dark, but the quality was not bad, and he slept until late Li Rusong came to call the door, and he hurriedly got up.

There was a banquet for Master Jin tonight, Shen Wuyan was happy and quiet by nature, and he didn't want to participate in this kind of banquet, but at that time, Master Jin was kindly invited, but he couldn't refuse, so he had to agree.

At this time, he also felt that there was nothing in his stomach, so he should go to have a meal, and it was a big deal to talk less.

Only Shen Wuyan and Li Rusong set off from the inn, because Li Ruxuan's legs and feet were inconvenient, and the soldiers had to be restrained here, so they stayed in the inn.

When the two arrived at the Jin family's house, Xiao Zhang had already been waiting in front of the door for a while, and when he saw the two coming, he hurriedly stepped forward with a smile and hugged his fists: "What do you think of the environment of the inn...... If you don't feel well, you can find the master to make two rooms for the two of you in the house......"

Shen Wuyan waved his hand again and again, and said, "It's okay...... It's already good, and I sleep soundly, so I don't need to bother...... But look at this hour, everyone should be here, aren't we two late? ”

Xiao Zhang suddenly hesitated, it seemed that Shen Wuyan's words made him feel a little strange, but he quickly returned to normal, and said with a smile: "Because it is a family banquet, there are many people...... So when everyone arrives, it can't be said to be later...... The two of them still went in quickly. ”

Shen Wuyan secretly thought in his heart that there were many people at the family banquet, how many people could there be, could it be that he would have to wait from the afternoon until tomorrow morning to arrive?

However, this kind of thought was only expressed in his heart, his face was still peaceful, and he glanced at Li Rusong, obviously he also thought the same way, groaned slightly, and hurriedly followed Xiao Zhang into the house.

As soon as he entered the mansion, Shen Wuyan even had a feeling that he had entered the palace. There are many palaces in the house, and it is impossible to estimate how many small gardens there are here, and how many rooms there are in them.

Listening to Master Jin's previous words, the rooms in this mansion seem to be full, and there are very few rooms that can be vacated. If that were the case, it would be estimated that there were several thousand people in the house.

Thinking like this, Xiao Zhang, who walked in front of him, said softly: "Today's family banquet is a small family banquet, only the old generation comes over...... That is, a few masters, young masters...... And the little masters...... So in the side hall...... The adults were also in a hurry, and it was a small gathering before the Mid-Autumn Festival...... But if it's the winter solstice, then it's really the entire Jin family...... It will be placed in the main hall ......."

Listening to Xiao Zhang's words, the two were also very curious about this house, and they couldn't help but look around. There are all kinds of rare flowers and trees planted here, and it is obvious that there are special people to take care of them.

It's just that this huge garden seems a little silent, and there is no trace of life in many small gardens, only a chill in people, as if they are about to approach a 10,000-year-old iceberg.

However, the early autumn of the Li Dynasty is really much cooler than that of Shuntianfu, especially after the sun sets, it is even cooler, coupled with the chill of this house, and then there is an autumn breeze blowing on the face, it is bleak again.

This feeling didn't last long, and Shen Wuyan heard bursts of laughter and laughter not far away, probably the side hall in Xiao Zhang's mouth.

"Just ahead......" Xiao Zhang pointed to a brightly lit hall not far away, and smiled: "It's not enough to come to the hall, so ...... Or put the feast in the courtyard......"

Saying this, Shen Wuyan also saw the courtyard in Xiao Zhang's mouth, and suddenly felt a burst of surprise in his heart.

This so-called courtyard was far from the courtyard that Shen Wuyan imagined, but a flat ground comparable to the square in front of the main hall, and it was full of banquets. At a glance, there must have been a near-seat.

Based on the calculation of six people sitting in each seat, there are five or six people. and not counting the things that are missing, and the things that are in the great hall. Suddenly, Shen Wuyan understood Xiao Zhang's previous words and why there were no guest rooms in this huge mansion.

Probably Xiao Zhang also noticed the shocked faces of the two behind him, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help showing a hint of pride, but this look flashed, and he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Two adults, please go down to the hall with you......"

Shen Wuyan came back to his senses at this time, and hurriedly patted Li Rusong, who was still in a daze, and said softly: "Every day in the palace, I haven't seen this posture?" ”

Li Rusong came back to his senses at this time, hurriedly caught up with Shen Wuyan, who was walking in front, and muttered softly: "Naturally, there are more magnificent ones in the palace, and there can be nearly 10,000 officials in the capital when Your Majesty is entertained...... It's just these people here...... But the surname is Jin...... That's amazing. ”

Hearing Li Rusong say this, Shen Wuyan looked at it, and immediately found that the people sitting at this banquet were all men, and even the youngest, about seventeen or eighteen years old, were all men, and there was not even a single woman.

Shen Wuyan was stunned, and hurriedly said, "How do you know that your surname is Jin...... I can't say that there is still a surname Wang...... What about the surname Li......"

Li Rusong thought about it like this, and felt that this was the case. But he listened to Xiao Zhang, who was walking in front, and turned around and said, "The family banquet can only be attended by the Jin family...... The branches are not in Huofengzhuang now, and they only came once a year ago, but they are rare. ”

Listening to Xiao Zhang's explanation, Shen Wuyan couldn't help but think in his heart: "This Jin family is like a tribal society, Master Jin is the patriarch, and the Jin family is a family member, running this huge family together. ”
