Sure enough, the next day, Duyun received an invitation from Wang Mang.

There was a faint smile on his lips, like mockery and anger. Du Yun took the invitation and looked at it again and again, and finally put it in his arms cautiously and carefully.

After stepping down, he sent the little servant back to Dong's Mansion, and Duyun went to Da Sima Mansion alone.

The Grand Sima Mansion is located in Beique Street, only 100 meters away from the Imperial Palace, if you talk about luxury, the Grand Sima Mansion is better than the Imperial Palace.

The bronze horse and golden saddle at the door, the courtyard is staggered, and the Chinese house is heavy and open. It is worthy of the royal family of three great horses and seventeen marquises.

Du Yun came early, and the invitation had just been handed over to the doorman, and Wang Mang had already greeted him in person. It lives up to his reputation as a corporal of courtesy and hospitality.

"Dong Shilang, Brother Dong Xian, please come in, please come in quickly, come here today, my Wang family is really brilliant." Wang Mang pulled Du Yun into the mansion, like a brother who hadn't seen him for many years.

"Kyoto is full of Dong Xiandi's demeanor, I saw it yesterday, and sure enough, Zhong Lingyu is really beautiful, and his bearing is extraordinary." Wang Mang is more sincere than others when he says praise.

Du Yun said lightly: "Pass the prize." ”

"Tea." After taking Duyun to sit down in the side hall, Wang Mang called a woman to perform the tea ceremony.

"Lord Wang is so elegant." Du Yun said, there was neither praise nor depreciation, but he just felt so, so he said it.

"I can't talk about elegance, it's just a preference, don't laugh at the virtuous brother." Laughing as he spoke, his eyes swept over the woman performing the tea ceremony.

The woman's appearance is extremely beautiful, but unfortunately with Duyun on the side, she can only be regarded as delicate.

Bringing a cup of freshly cooked tea soup, he came abruptly: "Please taste it." ”

The woman's hand serving the tea shook slightly, it shouldn't be, she is a person who is used to doing this. Through the mist of the tea soup, Du Yun clearly read a trace of unbearability in the woman's eyes.

Du Yun smiled, like a rainy day, suddenly cleared. The woman was confused, and her eyes were even more cramped when she looked at Du Yun, which meant that she was uneasy.

Anyway!

Duyun took a cup of small deep sniffing and tasted it, praised the good tea, and then drank it all.

Putting down the teacup, Du Yun saw that Wang Mang's shoulders were slightly loosened, and his smile was more frank.

After drinking a cup of tea, the accompanying guests also arrived, in addition to the deputy general Zuo Ming, the three squad leaders, and Liang Qi, who had not been seen for many days, Chen Gongzi and Qu Gongzi, who had been beaten by Du Yun because of their dirty words.

Wang Mang is very good at choosing guests, and they are all acquaintances, so he will not worry about the guests being uncomfortable. After a while, the table was full of delicacies.

Liang Qi finally saw the person who was thinking about it day and night, his face was full of light, and he raised his glass and said: "Today is Dong Langhe, Liang drinks three cups by himself." ”

Gongzi Qu snorted coldly and asked, "What does Gongzi Dong have to do with you as an official, why do you drink three cups by yourself." ”

Liang Qi is also a well-known gentleman in the capital, he can pretend to be a grandson in front of Duyun, but he will not admit defeat in front of Qu Xiang: "My Liang family and the Dong family have been friends for many years, and everyone knows that Dong Langhe still wants you to take care of it?" ”

Chen Gongzi rushed before Qu Xiang and said: "I'm ashamed, don't make any excuses." Look at what you shouted one by one, and then look at your room full of portraits, as if no one knows your dirty thoughts. ”

Qu Xiang said: "What is this, I heard that there are many new little men in Liang Gongzi's mansion, and their eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to Dong Gongzi, and several big men are mixed together day and night...... Oh, by the way, I heard that when the ears were molded and the temples were on, Liang Gongzi shouted the word 'Dong Lang'. ”

Liang Qi was told these private things in front of Du Yun, his face turned red, and he pointed angrily: "Nonsense, you two bastards slander!" ”

Qu Xiang and Chen Cheng looked at each other and laughed, ignored Liang Qi, toasted each other, and drank.

Zuo Ming and the three squad leaders were silent the whole time, bowing their heads and eating vegetables. Oops, the atmosphere of this banquet is not right, talk less and eat more, and work hard.

"No matter how bastard we are, we can't compare to you Liang Gongzi." said that Qu Xiang approached Chen Cheng exaggeratedly and whispered, but his voice was not small: "I don't know where he got Dong Xian's clothes and pants, and he was wrapped in the quilt all day long, making a room full of filthy ......"

"Ping Pong" Liang Qi smashed the cups and saucers on the table in annoyance, and was furious: "Qu Xiang, Chen Cheng, I didn't play with you." ”

This is the royal family of the Great Sima Mansion, Liang Qi didn't dare to offend, stomped his feet and turned away, and glanced at Du Yun with a weak heart and shame before leaving.

The man, as usual, was light and breezy, drinking and drinking, elegant and elegant.

After Liang Qi left, Wang Mang was a peacemaker with a haha: "Oh, the two of you are not good at hearsay, this matter has to be mentioned again, drinking, drinking." After saying that, he raised his glass and invited everyone to drink together.

Du Yun raised the wine glass, held it in his hand, but didn't drink it.

Wang Mang asked, "Why doesn't Brother Dong Xian drink it?" ”

"Do not drink with a woman with a clumsy tongue."

Who is the clumsy tongue woman, it is self-evident.

"You ......"

At this time, someone from the palace came to report: "Third young master, the county lord is here." ”

Wang Mang didn't expect Chaoyang to come to join in the fun, so he was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Please." ”

The county lord of Chaoyang was crowded in, and the room full of people got up to greet her, but there was only one person in her eyes, and she was dressed in a brocade robe and stood tall.

"Dong Lang ......," the county lord of Chaoyang blurted out.

The title of "poof" made Ma Cheng think of Liang Qi who left, and accidentally laughed, and was glared at fiercely by Zuo Ming next to him.

The county lord of Chaoyang looked at Du Yun shyly, and said to Wang Mang: "The county lord heard that Captain Wang held a banquet today to congratulate Gongzi Dong on his new Huangmen squire, so he came uninvited, and I hope that Captain Wang is not strange." ”

The lord of Chaoyang has a noble status and is quite favored by the emperor, and Wang Mang once asked to marry. Although the county lord of Chaoyang did not agree, he did not say anything to refuse.

But since Dong Xian appeared, the county lord of Chaoyang has changed, and he is as cold to Wang Mang as a stranger. This added a bit of hatred to Wang Mang, who was already taboo about Duyun.

After a salute, Wang Mang served another round of wine and food for the county lord of Chaoyang.

"The county lord tastes it, this is the cattle and sheep that are paid tribute from outside the Saiwai, and the meat soup made by the chef of the Huijulou in the house is very delicious and refreshing."

Wang Mang was still diligent, but the county lord of Chaoyang just nodded as if he was coping.

Although Wang Mang is accustomed to forbearance and is good at disguise, he is still a young man with strong blood, and he will be impetuous when he sees that the eyes of the woman he likes are always sticking to other men.

"Listening to Chen Gongzi and Qu Gongzi, Brother Dong Xian's kung fu is good."

"It's not that good, it's enough to just beat them." Du Yun doesn't like to exaggerate, and he doesn't understand humility, he just tells the truth.

Wang Mang knew that Du Yun Xijing didn't like to move, and deliberately said: "Brother Dong Xian is polite, it must be good to be able to enter the forbidden army's martial arts." I don't know what weapon the virtuous brother is usually best at. ”

Du Yun raised his head and looked at Wang Mang levelly, his eyes were tepid, and he didn't answer and asked: "I heard that Captain Wang is good at shooting, so he was named Captain Shooting." ”

The county lord of Chaoyang replied: "Yes, Captain Wang is very good at archery, and he can be blindfolded and listen to the wind to distinguish his position." ”

Zuo Ming and the three squad leaders echoed in unison: "Yes, yes, you can shoot without losing your eyes blindfolded." ”

Du Yun's eyebrows raised slightly, and said, "I think my accurate head is also very good, and I also want to try the bow and arrow." ”

Before Wang Mang could speak, the county lord of Chaoyang had already opened his eyes in amazement, and hurriedly agreed: "Okay, then try it, let Captain Wang also go down to practice, and compare with each other." ”

Turning around, Chaoyang said to Wang Mang: "Does Captain Wang think it's okay?" ”

Wang Mang complained: Here, you are the biggest, you have said that you want to compare, and you asked me what to do.

Da Sima was in charge of the world's soldiers and horses, and naturally set up a shooting range in the house, and the group left the banquet and went straight here.
