The chickens and dogs danced for a long time, and it was not until noon that Su Qinglang's ears were finally cleared.

Sitting alone in the gazebo, facing the delicacies prepared by the Liang family, he thought in his heart how to explain to Erniang when he went back later.

There was a faint movement under the pavilion, he stood up, looked up, and after a while, he saw a figure emerge from the peach blossom bush.

The man was dressed in an ink-colored robe embroidered with a pattern of golden flowers, a sachet of jade fell from his waist, a purple gold crown inlaid with pearls and jade, and two black broken hair pressed against his sideburns.

Sword eyebrows and starry eyes, long body, heroic temperament, like a dragon, but unfortunately there is a long sword in his hand, and the sword is still stained with blood, and he doesn't look like a good person.

Su Qinglang trembled, thinking about how bad his reputation was, and how many heroes wanted to take his dog's life for Tianxingdao, only blaming himself for being too careless and forgetting to bring a guard when he went out.

For a while, his face was pale, his legs were weak, and he didn't know whether it was better to burrow under the stone table or lie on the ground and pretend to be dead.

Although he was nervous, as a member of the imperial court, he still had to make a righteous and fearless appearance on his face.

So, Su Da was angry and Shen Dantian, pointed at the man and shouted: "Well, who are you, in broad daylight, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, you actually committed murder here?" ”

The man looked at him and was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting anyone to be here.

Realizing his recklessness, he hurriedly put the sword back into the sheath and arched his hand to him: "When I went out to play, I accidentally met a yellow-haired beast, and on the way to pursue, I accidentally broke into this place and disturbed Brother Tai's Yaxing, and I ask Brother Tai to forgive me." ”

Su Qinglang looked at the sword on his waist, then looked at the man's sincere appearance, and smiled: "Even if it is to chase the beast, it is also here to play, I am worried that there is no one to accompany me, there are still two pots of thin wine here, if Brother Tai does not dislike it, why don't you come up and drink a few glasses?" ”

The man hesitated for a moment, then smiled brightly and beckoned to him, "In this case, then thank you brother Tai for your hospitality." ”

Walking up to the pavilion, he saw the scars on Su Qinglang's face, and said in surprise: "Brother Tai, your face is ......."

Su Qinglang was looking at the person who came, his steps were steady, his sleeves were windy, although he didn't know him, he was a good appearance of elegance and dust.

Hearing this, he touched his face, and where he touched it, there was a hot pain.

I was depressed, oh, and said: "Romantic debts, peach blossom robbery, the front door is lost, and the backyard is on fire, which makes my brother Taijian smile." ”

The man pursed his lips and smiled, complimentingly: "Brother Tai is dignified and has an extraordinary temperament, and it is understandable to invite the girl's family to like it." ”

Huang Li smeared honey on his mouth, and he would pick something good, Su Qinglang sneered secretly, thinking about the pair of divine palms on his face, and his heart couldn't help but feel empty.

Sideways invited that person to sit down, and said: "It's just that I haven't married for a long time, and my marriage is just worried about my family, how can I compare to my brother's demeanor?" ”

He sat down, looked at the leftovers on the table, and sighed again: "It's a pity, these dishes have been left for too long, they must have been cold, otherwise I can ask my brother to try my Erniang's craftsmanship." However, there are warm wine utensils on this table, and now the weather is still cold, if Brother Tai is afraid of cold, we will warm the wine and drink it again. ”

The man smiled but did not speak, which was regarded as acquiescence, Su Qinglang raised his hand, warmed the wine on the stove, and asked, "Brother Tai looks like a foreigner." ”

The other party nodded and replied: "Brother Tai has good eyesight, and he is a person from Huaiyang who came to Chang'an to rush to the scientific examination." ”

Su Qinglang sighed, and couldn't help thinking, it's not that his eyesight is good, but that in this Chang'an City, there are 800 famous eunuchs, like his age, which family's sons and grandsons he has never seen, this person is dressed in a very expensive dress, obviously a person with status, so counted, naturally a foreigner.

He also said: "It turned out to be a person who rushed to the scientific examination, and when he saw that Brother Tai was heroic, he thought that Brother Tai was a martial artist who was recruited!" ”

The man shook his head and denied it, and at the same time paused, as if he thought of something interesting: "I can't complain that my brother and Taiwan misunderstood, I took the exam a few days ago, and when I entered the examination room, the adults who were guarding the door to check saw it, and I didn't dare to put it in, I only said that there was still half a year for the martial arts to take the exam, and this time it was a literary exam, so let me come back in a few months." ”

Su Qinglang laughed when he heard this, and almost fell off the stool.

Every scientific examination is a good opportunity for the Ministry of Rites to fill his own pockets, so these days, he has been busy extorting and asking for bribes, but he has never heard of such interesting things.

Then, I heard the man arch his hand and say: "In Xia Mei Liusheng, I haven't asked my brother Tai Daming yet." ”

When he first heard Mei Liusheng's name, Su Qinglang only felt a little familiar, but after thinking about it, he couldn't tell where he had heard it.

simply didn't care, and said with a smile: "Don't have your surname Su, just call Brother Su in the next voice." ”

This Mei Liusheng looks heroic and extraordinary, and he is a full martial artist, but in terms of style, he is not an embroidered pillow.

Quoting scriptures and classics, the export is a chapter, only to say that Su Qinglang's eyes are shining, and he almost holds the other party's hand and calls him a confidant.

The two raised their glasses and chatted very happily, and before they knew it, the sun had set in the western mountains, and there was still half a glass of residual wine on the table.

Mei Liu straightened the hem of her clothes and said: "I haven't been so happy for a long time, Brother Su is humble and has thousands of poems and books, and I admire and admire it." ”

Su Qinglang waved his hand and said: "But it's just idle to read two sour words, the class has an axe, and Brother Mei smiled." ”

The two complimented each other, looked at each other, and felt that the other party, no matter their appearance or words, was right in their hearts, so they raised their glasses again.

It's a pity that Su Qinglang raised his head, but he drank empty, and said in surprise: "Ah, there is no wine......

looked at Mei Liusheng with a regretful expression: "I knew that I could meet Brother Mei, I should have prepared more wine, but in this way, it was rude for me." ”

Mei Liusheng said with a smile: "The wine is not all fun, leave a thought today, and I will invite you another day." ”

"Good!" Su Qinglang put the wine glass on the table, then looked outside and said: "It's not early, it's time to leave next, he will meet in the future, you and I will drink a few more glasses." ”

At this moment, in the path of the peach forest, a young man slowly walked out, fifteen or sixteen years old, also dressed in ink, holding a long sword in his hand, and two broken hairs falling from his forehead.

He glanced at Su Qinglang, came to the pavilion, and saluted Mei Liusheng: "Son, we should go." ”

Mei Liusheng also looked at Su Qinglang, his expression was slightly reluctant, and there was a smile in his eyes: "Then we will make an appointment next time?" ”

Su Qinglang nodded, and the two walked down the pavilion together, bypassing the path of the peach forest, and saw a carriage waiting in a blink of an eye.

Mei Liusheng asked, "Where is Brother Su going?" ”

Su Qinglang pointed to the side and replied, "I'm going back to the city in a hurry and going north." ”

Mei Liusheng looked at the road to the north, retracted his gaze, and said with some regret: "Unfortunately, I still have something to go to the south, so I can't go with Brother Su." ”

The two said goodbye, Mei Liusheng turned to leave, Su Qinglang stood in place, looked at his back, was silent for a moment, suddenly thought of something, and subconsciously stopped it.

Seeing Mei Liusheng stop and look back at himself, he smiled knowing that he was out of shape, and deliberately mentioned: "I have lived in the city for many years, and I have accumulated a lot of contacts in the officialdom. ”

This has been said clearly enough, Mei Liusheng was also stunned for a moment, thinking for a moment, but shook his head and smiled: "Thank you Brother Su for your kindness, but I don't have such a plan yet, let's try it on my own for the time being." ”

When Su Qinglang heard this, his eyes lit up slightly, he couldn't help but look at him a few more times, nodded, and said apologetically: "Brother Mei has a noble character and self-love, so he is presumptuous." ”

Mei Liusheng lowered his head and replied, "Brother Su is for my good, and I understand everything." ”

Then he smiled again: "With Brother Su's good intentions, the next time we meet, I should also ask Brother Su to drink." ”

Su Qinglang nodded, and arched his hand again: "It must be ......."

The two parted, Su Qinglang turned around and got into the carriage, and on the way back, he lifted the curtain, only to see that the slanting sun in the sky had already spread over half of the sky, falling on the peach blossoms, scorching.

In the direction where Mei Liusheng left, he turned his head and glanced at it, and couldn't help but slightly hook the corners of his lips, looking thoughtful.

Fingers tapped on the window panel, dragging the tone and said slowly: "Jiang Mei has passed the willow and is wet, the rain is wet at dusk, good name, good artistic conception." ”
