Sixty: Hot and warm
Qinghuan upstairs, the door of the elegant room on the second floor was opened, and a man in his thirties walked downstairs with a folding fan, Wang Xuzhang. In all fairness, in fact, his appearance can be regarded as nothing, but his vain complexion, deep-set eyes, and extremely arrogant expression make people feel extremely uncomfortable at a glance.
"Miss Mei," Wang Xuzhang smiled and put away the folding fan, "You don't want to toast, don't eat and drink, do you know who this son is?" "Second Prince Wang." Shopkeeper Xie greeted him with a smile and motioned to his subordinates to stop his entourage as if he didn't have anything and said, "Young Master Wang, the rules of Qinghuan Building, singing and dancing girls will not accompany guests, please forgive me." ”
"Rules," Wang Xuzhang sneered and said wantonly, "What are the rules?" ”
Mei Jijiang walked off the stage leisurely, handed out the pipa in his hand, turned around, smiled, and said with a fearless look: "Jijiang doesn't drink much, so he has to live up to the good intentions of Wang Gongzi." ”
"You," Wang Xuzhang's face flashed pale, and finally turned into a violent color, and said coldly, "Pull her over for me." ”
Chen Shang frowned, that is, when Gillian was at the peak of the Chen family, there was no child of the Chen family who was so arrogant outside, this Wang Xuzhang is really a thing that does not know how to grow. Originally, with the sensitive situation of the Chen family, he didn't want to cause trouble, but looking at his niece's meaning, he was bent on defending this woman named Mei Jijiang to the end. After a little hesitation, he was about to speak, and suddenly heard a cold voice from the huge hall: "But barely a cousin is so wild in this Chang'an City, is there really no royal law?" Two teenagers came down from the upper floor. Brother," the girl's face lit up, and she called out.
A hint of warmth flashed in Huo Quzhi's cold eyes. If he hadn't heard this girl's voice in the private room upstairs just now, he might not have been willing to meddle with this matter with his temper.
He walked up to the girl. "How did you get here?" ”
"Fourth Miss." Zhao Poyu also smiled and said, "Why do you only remember to tell him, don't you remember me?" ”
"Who are you?" Wang Xuzhang's face was gloomy, he was not stupid in the end, and when he got home, he naturally saw that there were several people in Chen Shang's party before. and the black-clothed young man who just went downstairs are not ordinary people, but he is not afraid to rely on his sister, and said coldly: "I advise you to be nosy." ”
"Young Master Huo." Shopkeeper Xie smiled and saluted.
"Young Master" Wang Xuzhang said behind him, "What about Huo Quai, who seems to be from the Wei family?" ”
In the Weiyang Palace, King Wei competed for favor, and Wang Xuzhang naturally did not wait to see Huo Quai. Even though Huo Qubing had just won the title of Marquis for his military exploits a few years ago, he was still a relative like him in his opinion. It's just more favored.
Yang wiped a cold sweat proudly, and things seemed to be getting more complicated. I had to go to the front. "Young Master, Miss. Let's go back first. Madame should be in a hurry. ”
The boy secretly instructed the guards to protect his sister and shook his head. "Now that you're here, let's take a look." Chao Huo went to the sick chin and said, "Huo Hou Ye is good." Huo Quzhi secretly looked at him, looked at his bearing, and sighed secretly.
The girl turned around and said with a smile: "Brother Zhao is okay." ”
Zhao Poyu shuddered and said, "Excuse me." It's not like I'm sick and can't stand your shouting. ”
"What is the identity of these siblings?" Someone in Qinghuan Building asked in a whisper.
"I don't know......," the person on the other side shook his head, "but you can see that the carriage outside seems to be from the Tangyi Marquis's Mansion." The man in the silk robe was Chen Shang, the third young master of the Tangyi Marquis Mansion. ”
Xue Zhi was shocked, and glanced over, and sure enough, the carriage outside the door was Xuanang, and there was a line of flying fish on the side wall.
"But I haven't heard that there is a pair of brothers and sisters of this age in the Tangyi Marquis Mansion. And isn't Tangyi Houfu and the Wei family mortal enemies, why does this girl seem to have a good relationship with Huo Quai? ”
Xue Zhi finally remembered where the familiarity given to him by the face of the talented girl came from. Is that between the eyebrows vaguely the shadow of Chen Niangniang? Jing turned out to be the champion Hou Ye. Wang Xuzhang also felt bad, but how could he bear to leave this Zi Xiaoqiang sneered: "Why is Huo Shao also interested in this singer?" ”
A trace of anger flashed in Mei Jijiang's eyes, and disappeared silently. Turning around, he walked over to the girl, took her hand, and called, "Fourth Miss, let's go inside." ”
"Hmm." The girl answered.
"Want to go?" Wang Xuzhang waved his hand and said, "My son hasn't agreed yet." ”
"Be forgiving and forgiving." Xue Zhi stood up and hugged his entourage and said with a smile.
"Who are you?" Wang Xuzhang squinted at humanity, "Come and intervene." Don't worry about it. ”
"Why bother with him." Next to him, Zhao Poyu said impatiently, stepped forward, grabbed a Wang family attendant, and fell to the ground. He had long seen that the Wang family was not going well, but he was embarrassed because of his identity. Now that the situation in Qinghuanlou is estimated, not only Chen Shang and Huo Quai, but also Wang Xuzhang are relatives, and most of them are much more important than this surnamed Wang in the emperor's heart. Just because Princess Yuening and the eldest son of the emperor are involved here, even if there are ten Wang beauties, they can't afford it, so they accept their scruples
"What are you afraid of, you all give it to me, how many of them are there?" Wang Xuzhang sneered.
The entourage of the Wang family embraced it, and there were still people coming to Mei Jijiang, and Xue Zhi had no choice but to stop them.
Huo Quzhi also had the intention of teaching people a lesson, and looked at it coldly. These retinues of the Wang family are just ordinary people, how can they withstand Xue Zhi and Zhao Poyu, who fought on the battlefield, were beaten to the ground in an instant, scattered, and scattered. Even Wang Xuzhang was punched a few times by Zhao Poyu, and his face was black. hissed and said: "Huo Quai, you wait for me, I need my sister-in-law to join you in front of the emperor, arson with people, and beat up relatives." ”
Huo Quzhi raised his eyebrows and sneered: "I didn't do anything at all, why did the second prince only target me?" ”
"You ......," Wang Xuzhang sneered and glanced at the people present. Said viciously: "There is a kind of let's walk and see." ”
"Happy." Zhao Poyu relied on Huo Quai's side to ignore this threat. With a smile, he turned his eyes to Xue Zhi and asked, "This brother is so good, I don't know what he is?" ”
"In Xiaqiuze, the cavalry cavalry is riding the pavilion captain Xue Zhi," Xue Zhi said with a smile. Although the clothes were full of wind and dust, after all, they couldn't cover the aura between the eyebrows, and they looked around with a wrinkled frown, "It's just that it's broken ...... here."
"If the ground is damaged here, I'll leave it to the boy." The boy cut off and said, "I've heard Lord Xue's name." If you wish, you may wish to sit down and talk. ”
"Oh," Xue Zhi glanced at the boy amusedly, and naturally saw Chen Shang's appreciative look at the boy. Pretending to be old at a young age. Is it a blessing or a misfortune? He has a good impression of the brother and sister, and he does not shirk it. "It's so natural."
Zhao Poyu was also a little surprised, and turned sideways to look at Huo Quai. saw Huo Quai's illness and said with a smile. "Since Young Master Mo has this intention, he will naturally follow his fate."
Shopkeeper Xie naturally couldn't really ask Liu Mo to compensate for the losses in the building. And. Nowadays, although the financial resources of Qinghuan Building are all famous products, they are not unaffordable.
On the second floor, the most elegant Pujia Pavilion was reopened, and a steady stream of fine wine and food came up. Liu Mo turned his head and said with a smile and politeness: "Mr. Yang, you can also sit." ”
"Thank you, young master." Yang bowed proudly and said, "But the status of the slave is low, so forget it." ”
"Mr. Yang doesn't have to be too modest," Chen Shang said with a smile, "Now there is no need to be too restrained outside, not to mention that in Chang'an's Chen family, who doesn't know Mr. Yang." If Mr. Yang gives me and my nephew a face, let's sit down. ”
Speaking of which, Yang was helpless to look at Huo Quai, and saw that he was drinking with cold noodles and had no objection. He sat down under Chen Shang.
Although he was the most simply dressed here, Xue Zhi didn't have the slightest embarrassment, and looked at it with a smile, but he felt that everyone was good, and the brother and sister were even more magnanimous.
After three rounds of drinking, he asked with a smile: "Xue asked himself, is his identity worth mentioning in this imperial capital, I don't know where this little boy heard the name of Xue?" ”
"This ......," Liu Mo hesitated for a moment and said, "Naturally, I heard about it at Changxinhou." ”
"Oh," Xue Zhiqi said, "It turns out that the little boy still knows Changxinhou?" ”
"yes."
"Alright." Chen Shang pressed the wine cup in front of Liu Chu and said, "After drinking enough, you should go home." ”
"Uncle," Liu Chu said unhappily, "This wine is not as light as Bi Chun, and you can't get drunk." ”
"That's not going to work either. You're a male ...... How can Miss Gonghou be so unruly. ”
Liu Chu pursed his lips and turned to Mei Jijiang and asked, "Aunt Mei, can't you come to see us and my mother?" ”
"That's what I have in mind," Mei Jijiang smiled, "and how can I be helped?" ”
"Alright." Chen Shang smiled and put down the wine in his hand and said, "Qinghuanlou has also been here, Miss Mei, you have also seen it, you should go back with peace of mind." ”
Coming out of Qinghuan Building, Huo Quzhi suddenly said: "I just remembered that there are some things that I haven't explained to my uncle, go to Changping Houfu first, and go back by yourself." "Since I'm alone, I'm the first to go.
Liu Chu wrinkled his nose and said, "Let's go too." He helped Yang proudly get into the car of the Tangyi Marquis Mansion. Turning around, he smiled brightly and said, "Brother Zhao, Brother Xue has taken his leave." ”
The carriage slowly walked towards Weiyang Palace. "Brother Xue has just arrived in the imperial capital?"
Seeing the carriage slowly gallop away, Zhao Poyu asked with a smile.
"yes." Xue Zhidao: "Zhiben is working in Youbeiping, and a few days ago, he received an order and rushed back to Chang'an. ”
"Speaking of which," Zhao Poyu muttered, "Brother Xue belongs to the Qiu Ze Cavalry Army, and he belongs to the Changxinhou faction." ”
"How?" Xue Zhi was stunned: "Is there still a faction in the Han army?" ”
Zhao Poyu lowered his head and said in a muffled voice: "Although it is not obvious, because Chen Wei is separated in the harem, General Wei and Marquis Liu have an inseparable connection with these two parties. Therefore, the hearts of all the people in the army also have a mustard. ”
"So," Xue Zhi's heart sank, and he smiled reluctantly, "Which side does Brother Zhao belong to?" ”
"I ......," Zhao Poyu hesitated slightly, "I am a soldier, and I only choose the side that is most beneficial to the Han." ”
Xue Zhi was a little surprised, "I thought," he said as he considered his words, "If you are good friends with Huo Houye, you will definitely stand in the Wei family." ”
"Go sick." Zhao Poyu read the name and smiled warmly: "The reason why I can be good friends with him is only because he and I hold the same beliefs. He is someone I am willing to follow. ”
"But now it seems that this Mo prince is not a simple person!"
"Prince Mo?" Xue Zhi was stunned.
"Can't you see?" Zhao Poyu said with a smile: "Except for Empress Chen's sons and daughters, who else will call the third master of the Hou Mansion of Tangyi to be an uncle?" ”
"I thought," Xue Zhi muttered, "I thought it ...... They are the children of a certain lady in the Tangyi Mansion. ”
"Ha," Zhao Poyu sneered lightly, "How can Miss Shu have such a bearing?" Xue Zhiyu hurriedly went to see the trail of the carriage, but he had already gone far away, and even the startled dust had fallen.
After all, how could he have thought that the princes and princesses of the land who should have been locked in the Nine Deep Palace would appear in Qinghuan Tower unguarded on such a day.
