Jianghu are all masters

205.

Seeing them accept the invitation, Wen Suyuan seemed relieved, and a line of words appeared on his head.

"After returning home, you can give him a good try."

But after he finished speaking, he turned to look at Qi Chaoyun, smiled with them, and asked, "Ah Yun, if you are free, why don't you come along with me."

Zhang Xiaoyuan frowned, feeling a little strange.

If Qi Chaoyun and the others also follow, how will the elder brother recognize Wen Suyuan?

Qi Chaoyun would not refuse the elder's invitation, he immediately agreed to Wen Suyuan, and of course he didn't think too much about it, they drove here by themselves, so they returned to the capital in their own carriage, Wen Suyuan made an appointment with them today After drinking and chatting happily in the evening, they decided to go to Wen Suyuan's house together again in the evening.

Zhang Xiaoyuan and the others also got into his carriage. He was very worried and a little bit at a loss. He told his uncle and senior brother everything he had just seen above Wen Suyuan's head, and wanted to hear a few words. In human opinion, She Shuyi just frowned, he was too ignorant of the facts in the palace, even if he now knew that the person spreading rumors in the palace and wanting to take Zhao Chengyang off the throne was an eunuch, he didn't know who it would be.

Zhang Xiaoyuan felt that he might know a little more than his uncle.

Holding the curtain of the car, he said to the two of them: "I heard that Mr. Shu said that the most powerful eunuch around the emperor now seems to be surnamed Tang—"

Lu Zhaoming said: "Tang Henghuai."

Zhang Xiaoyuan paused, then looked at Lu Zhaoming in surprise.

Lu Zhaoming just said lightly: "He is the palm print eunuch."

Then he turned his gaze to the side of the road, as if the words just now were spoken by someone else, he didn't want to explain, and he didn't want to say too much.

Zhang Xiaoyuan couldn't help thinking of what the senior brother said that day when he went to watch fireflies outside the city with his senior brother.

He said that he could remember many things from his childhood very clearly, perhaps including this Tang Henghuai.

She Shuyi frowned slightly. He could see that Lu Zhaoming was in a bad mood, so he said in a low voice: "After I go back, I'll ask my elder brother. Since he often has contacts with the palace, he should know who this Eunuch Tang is."

Lu Zhaoming was sitting outside the carriage and driving. Zhang Xiaoyuan hesitated for a moment, then simply got out of the carriage and sat beside him. He didn't know what to say for a while, but just propped his chin and looked towards the side of the road like Lu Zhaoming.

She Shuyi smiled softly behind her, put down the curtain of the car, and said to the two of them in the car: "I'm sleepy! I'll sleep for a while, and call me when I get to the general's mansion."

The scenery of the capital in July is indeed very different from the Jiangnan water town that Zhang Xiaoyuan is used to.

The four seasons are distinct in the north, the leaves of the old trees beside the road are slightly withered and yellow, and they fall on the official road, and the carriage makes a rustling sound as it rolls over. Zhang Xiaoyuan secretly turned his head to look at Lu Zhaoming. In the storytelling stories he had heard since he was a child, those heroes who wielded swords in rivers and lakes.

He lowered his gaze, Lu Zhaoming used to straighten his waist very straight, but on the inner side of the girdle, there seemed to be a faint trace of sewing, which looked like the handwriting of the second senior brother, Zhang Xiaoyuan couldn't help frowning slightly, and then Moving his gaze down, he saw that the pair of shoes that the senior brother was wearing were really the same pair of shoes that had a torn toe and had been mended. The mended area was a little rough, and it seemed that... in a few days, the shoes would break again.

Zhang Xiaoyuan couldn't help muttering in a low voice, "No way."

Lu Zhaoming heard him speak, looked at him sideways, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan frowned.

Wen Suyuan set the banquet for tonight, that is to say, tonight, the elder brother will reveal that he is the only surviving son of Ling Shuangjian and Li Hanchuan, and he has to recognize this identity. This is a big deal, and tonight is also a big deal when.

At a time like this, how could Elder Brother be wearing patched clothes and a pair of shoes that are about to be worn out?

No, absolutely not.

It's noon now, Wen Suyuan set the dinner tonight, Zhang Xiaoyuan felt that he might still have time to make up for it.

Seeing the gate of the capital from afar, he had already made up his mind, the elder brother gave him such a good gift, he might as well seize this opportunity to return a small gift to the elder brother.

……

Zhang Xiaoyuan made up his mind, turned around and opened the car curtain a bit, seeing that She Shuyi inside really didn't stop, saw him poking his head in, and even winked at him, as if he didn't understand what he wanted to do.

Zhang Xiaoyuan climbed into the carriage, leaned into his ear, and whispered a few words to him.

She Shuyi was startled for a moment, then couldn't help laughing, and said, "You guys go, I will go to the Wenfu first, and I told you to come back later."

Zhang Xiaoyuan was very happy: "Thank you uncle!"

Lu Zhaoming looked at the two of them in confusion, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan asked again: "Will Master Master know how to drive?"

She Shuyi replied: "Just go to the gate of the city, you don't have to take care of me."

Lu Zhaoming obviously still didn't understand.

Zhang Xiaoyuan had already retreated back, sat beside him, and said to him seriously: "Brother, come with me to a place later."

Lu Zhaoming was puzzled: "What are you going to do?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan just said to him: "You will find out when you come with me."

He stopped the carriage at the gate of the city, and She Shuyi took the whip from Lu Zhaoming's hand. Seeing that Lu Zhaoming was still in a daze, he just smiled at him and said, "Xiao Yuan is a good boy, what did he tell you to do? Just follow along."

Lu Zhaoming always agreed to the words of Wang Henian and She Shuyi habitually. Even though he didn't understand anything now, he still nodded and said, "Yes, uncle..."

He got out of the carriage in a daze, Zhang Xiaoyuan was afraid that time was too tight and they would not be able to make it to the Wen Mansion's dinner at night, so he was still a little anxious, almost grabbed Lu Zhaoming's hand, and ran into the city without saying a word.

The streets in the capital are so crowded, there are traders and people wandering in the streets in their free time everywhere, they shuttle among the crowd, Lu Zhaoming followed his footsteps and asked at a loss: "Xiao Yuan, what are you going to do?" What?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan was slightly out of breath, but seemed to be indescribably excited, turned his head and said to Lu Zhaoming, "I'll take you there—"

He almost bumped into the aunt who was walking towards him, so scared that Lu Zhaoming grabbed him and almost pulled him into his arms. Zhang Xiaoyuan felt his face turn red inexplicably. He used to be eloquent, but for some reason now he was a little speechless That's right, the aunt just smiled at them kindly and asked Zhang Xiaoyuan to pay more attention when walking.

Lu Zhaoming asked him, "What exactly are you going to do?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan didn't dare to run any longer, he walked down the street holding Lu Zhaoming's hand, and whispered to Lu Zhaoming, "I want to buy you some clothes."

Lu Zhaoming didn't come back to his senses for a moment, he was stunned for a moment, and then repeated: "Buy me clothes?"

He obviously didn't understand what Zhang Xiaoyuan meant.

Zhang Xiaoyuan has brought him into the inner city, outside a tailor shop, he has a lot of money with him today, it should be enough to buy decent clothes for senior brother.

If he remembers correctly, when he was young, when his father told him the story of Ling Shuangjian and Li Hanchuan, he always said that Li Hanchuan was a bit strange. He seemed to think that heroes should wear white clothes. The white clothes are put in the carry-on bag, and he always shows off the hero in white clothes on weekdays. He is really handsome, but the clothes will get dirty in a few days, which is really troublesome.

But Zhang Xiaoyuan felt that heroes should wear white clothes.

He brought Lu Zhaoming to this store for the same purpose.

The white clothes can't be worn often, it's too troublesome, but it's not a problem to wear it once in a while, especially on this day that is so important to the elder brother, so don't be sloppy.

The styles of white clothes in the world are similar, the only difference is the person wearing them. Lu Zhaoming also wore white clothes in the past, but most of his clothes were not made of good materials. It really looks like the white-clothed knight mentioned by the storyteller, and it seems to be indescribably good-looking.

Zhang Xiaoyuan was very satisfied.

He took a few steps back and looked at Lu Zhaoming carefully. He was dressed in white and tall, with straight eyebrows. He wore the famous cold iron sword on his waist. There was a brand-new jade pendant on the sword, and he also had a new pair of shoes. It seems that there is still something lacking.

Zhang Xiaoyuan frowned slightly, and set his eyes on Lu Zhaoming's waist.

He got it.

He took off the jade pendant around his waist, and made Lu Zhaoming raise his hand a little, and he tied the jade pendant around Lu Zhaoming's waist, took two steps back, looked up and down, and felt that the white-clothed hero in front of him was simply perfect.

Lu Zhaoming frowned, he knew that the clothes must be expensive, and most of Zhang Xiaoyuan's accessories were extremely expensive, he didn't know how much this jade pendant cost, he felt that he couldn't accept such a heavy gift, and felt a little bit in his heart. There was resistance and wanted to take off the jade pendant.

As soon as Zhang Xiaoyuan saw his actions, he knew what he was thinking, so he could only stop Lu Zhaoming's actions in a hurry, and lie to him casually: "Brother! This jade pendant is not expensive."

Lu Zhaoming frowned: "Not expensive?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan automatically halved the price of the jade pendant in his mind, and said, "Only 30 taels!"

Lu Zhaoming: "..."

Lu Zhaoming continued to untie the jade pendant.

"Eldest senior brother! Just treat it... just treat it as I lent it to you!" Zhang Xiaoyuan was a little anxious, "After tonight, you will return the jade pendant to me."

Lu Zhaoming: "..."

Zhang Xiaoyuan couldn't help but secretly scolded senior brother for being an idiot in his heart, but he still persuaded him kindly, saying: "Today is so important, senior brother, you should at least dress nicely."

Lu Zhaoming: "..."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "I have a lot of jade pendants, it's not a big deal to lend you this one for now."

Lu Zhaoming still hesitated: "..."

Zhang Xiaoyuan said again: "Brother, I just like to see you dressed like this——"

Lu Zhaoming reluctantly nodded.

Zhang Xiaoyuan breathed a sigh of relief, and turned around to call the shop assistant to pay the bill.

The clothes in the capital are indeed slightly more expensive than his home, but fortunately he has so much money in his pocket now, and he doesn't feel bad for a mere piece of clothing.

But when he turned his head, he saw Lu Zhaoming hesitated, took out something from his arms, looked at it for a while, then looked up at Zhang Xiaoyuan, and called out: "Xiao Yuan."

Zhang Xiaoyuan blinked: "Brother, what's wrong?"

Lu Zhaoming put the thing in his hand and handed it to him, Zhang Xiaoyuan subconsciously took it, looked down, it seemed to be a piece of ancient jade with some defects.

"When I was young, my mother told me." Lu Zhaoming frowned, "If someone gives me the jade pendant in the future, I will give it back to him."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

Zhang Xiaoyuan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt...

No, big brother!This is not right!
