Chapter Seventy-Four: Huan II
Thousands of miles in the sky, the wind and the sun are beautiful.
A green canopy top, and engraved with the emblem of the Huan clan of the county of the horse carriage stopped in front of the Hou Mansion of Yongxiu County, from the carriage walked down a wearing Confucian robes, wearing a cloak, the long jade Lang Jun, this Lang Jun about the age of the weak crown, born with red lips and white teeth, face like clotted fat, eyes like paint, at first glance and Huan Ling is a little similar, but more feminine than him.
This Lang Jun got out of the carriage, walked to the door of the Hou Mansion without hurrying, looked up at the plaque on the door, saw the five words "Yongxiu County Hou Mansion", the corners of his lips rose slightly, as if he was smiling, he shook his hand, opened the paper fan in his hand in a chic manner, and fanned the wind leisurely.
The porter greeted him and asked, "......Who is this Lang Jun?"
Lang Jun still tilted his head slightly, his posture was quite arrogant, he stared at the porter, and said, "You don't recognize me?" ”
The porter looked at the carriage behind him, and knew that he was from the Huan family, but he really didn't know which Buddha was in front of him.
Lang Jun closed the paper fan, pointed to the door with the paper fan, and said: "I am Huan Rang, and the one inside is my eldest brother." ”
"It turned out to be Erlangjun, the slave has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, please come in," the porter was busy taking Huan Rang in, at that time Huan Ling was also sitting in the guest hall with Xie Zheng drinking tea, the two were talking and laughing, the porter hurriedly walked over, and shouted with a smile: "County Marquis, you see who is coming." ”
Huan Rang hid behind the porter, after the porter said this, he then turned sideways to give way, Huan Ling sat in front of the coffee table, looked sideways at Huan Rang, and was surprised, "Zhong Xuan? ”
Saying that, Huan Ling immediately greeted him, and Huan Rang also called: "Big brother! The two brothers immediately hugged each other tightly, and their love was more than flesh and blood, and they reunited after a long absence.
At this time, Xie Zheng also stood up silently, and listened to Huan Ling call that person "Zhong Xuan", since he was "Zhong", he must be Huan Ling's second brother.
And Yuzhi also whispered in Xie Zheng's ear at this time: "This is the second brother of the county marquis, with a single name and a single name of the word 'let', and the table word 'Zhong Xuan', and he is the second son of the Hou Mansion." ”
"Hukou?" Xie Zheng was slightly surprised, glanced back at Yuzhi, and then looked at Huan Rang, and Yuzhi continued: "However, he was raised by his mother, so his relationship with the county marquis is also very good." ”
"I see."
The pair of brothers in front hugged for a long time before parting, Huan Ling really liked his younger brother, seeing him this time, the smile on his face couldn't be hidden, very excited, he held Huan Rang's upper arm with both hands, and asked: "Why did you come to Jiankang?" ”
"After a few months of separation, I was very worried, so I came to see the eldest brother," in comparison, Huan Rang's smile seemed much more flat.
Huan Ling turned sideways, made a way, pointed to the guest hall, and said: "Come and sit, I just made a pot of tea, and I wonder if you came from smelling the fragrance of tea." ”
"It's really true that the eldest brother is right," Huan Rang looked at the guest hall, just staring at Xie Zheng, he was stunned, and immediately asked Huan Ling: "Big brother, this is ......"
"This is my guest, the lady of the Xie family, temporarily staying in my house," Huan Ling introduced Xie Zheng to Huan Rang on the one hand, and pushed him into the guest hall on the other hand.
Xie Zheng nodded to Huan Rang, Huan Rang also nodded at Xie Zheng stupidly, and when the two brothers walked into the guest hall, Xie Zheng opened his mouth: "The county marquis and Huan Erlang brothers got together, and Deyin was inconvenient to bother here, so he retired first." ”
Huan Ling nodded, Xie Zheng immediately retreated with the jade branch, and when they walked away, the two sat down in front of the coffee table, Huan Ling poured tea for Huan Rang, Huan Rang was still looking at Xie Zheng's back from a distance, his hand touched his chin, as if looking at her, he whispered: "This Xie Niangzi really gave birth to a good look." ”
"She's my honored guest, don't think anything crooked," Huan Ling glanced at Huan Ling as he spoke, but he was full of pampering.
"Big brother really only thinks she's a guest?" Huan Rang held the teacup, raised his eyebrows at Huan Ling, and then smiled lightly, and said a little jokingly: "I don't believe it," he said, and drank all the tea in the teacup.
"You don't have a poor mouth," Huan Ling also picked up the teacup, but only took a sip, which was extremely elegant compared to Huan Rang.
Huan Ling then asked, "How is my mother?" ”
"Mother is in good health, everything is fine, but I am talking about when you can go back, eldest brother, all day long, looking forward to you going back to marry the Xue family's lady, and hurry up to spread the branches and leaves for the Huan family."
Huan Ling smiled faintly, shook his head and said, "I finally know why you came to Jiankang, it turns out that you were sent by your mother to be a matchmaker." ”
Zeng Qionglin stood behind Huan Ling, and laughed out loud, Huan Rang also laughed and said nothing, just acquiescing, "It's also your fault that you don't care about Tian Ding's matter at all, as long as you brought the Zhou family and the Yao family in the first place, your mother will not urge you to go back every once in a while." ”
"But seriously, the eldest brother is reluctant to go back to marry, but for the sake of that Deyin sister?" Huan Rang leaned softly on Huan Ling's body as if he had no bones, lowered his voice, and asked tentatively.
Huan Ling avoided answering, and only said: "What Sister Deyin, she is a year younger than you." ”
"Yes, yes, my eldest brother doesn't want me to call her sister, and he doesn't want me to call her sister, he just wants me to call her sister-in-law."
"You!" Huan Ling looked at Huan Rang, and suddenly laughed out loud, and Huan Rang also laughed.
At this moment, the porter hurriedly came again and said, "County marquis, someone has come to the palace." ”
"In the palace?" Huan Ling was confused, and when he was suspicious, he turned his head, and really saw a few people dressed as internal supervisors walking into the courtyard, the one who was in the lead, holding a whisk in his hand, Huan Ling recognized it, he was the big internal official Qu Ping who was following Xiao Daocheng.
Huan Ling got up to greet him and said with a smile: "I don't know if the nobles are coming, Ben Hou has missed the welcome, which is really rude." ”
Qu Ping was quite kind and said with a smile: "The Marquis of Yongxiu County is serious, and the slave maid is on the order of His Majesty to come and deliver a message to the Marquis of the county." ”
"Nobleman, please speak."
"Goguryeo longevity king Gao Lian, sent the king Sun Gao Luoyun, led the envoys to visit Daqi, has now stayed in Jiankang, His Majesty will set up a banquet in the palace tomorrow to entertain foreign guests, you are a first-class prince, and you happen to be in Jiankang, so, Your Majesty wants to invite you to enter the palace tomorrow for a banquet, this is an invitation," Qu Ping presented the invitation with both hands, Huan Ling bowed his head, and raised his hands above his head, as if receiving the holy decree, he respectfully took the invitation, Qu Ping continued: "At that time, please also ask the county marquis to be present." ”
Huan Ling carefully held the invitation, then raised his head and looked directly at Qu Ping, and said politely: "There are nobles in labor." ”
"The words have been brought, the slave and maid will not bother the county marquis, and leave."
After Qu Ping left, Huan Ling opened the invitation and looked at it, he stood in the courtyard, Huan Rang also strode over, stretched his neck to see the invitation, Huan Ling was also generous, and after his brother saw it, he closed the invitation and said: "I will send the invitation to the study, and then come." ”
After he finished speaking, he walked towards the study, Zeng Qionglin also followed him as he was, leaving Huan alone to stand alone in the courtyard, Huan Rang tilted his head slightly, looked at Huan Ling and walked away, suddenly sneered, and said to himself: "Yongxiu County Marquis?" Scold! ”
