Tang Xuan

In the middle of March, Emperor Ming finally returned to Chang'an City.Spring is already deep in the city, and the huge pagoda trees on both sides of Suzaku Street are already covered with new green flowers.

After the court meeting ended, Lang Huai turned around and walked towards the Imperial Forest Army's garrison.Before entering Zhaoxun Gate, Lang Huai had already heard Lu Laosan's loud voice.

"Third brother, it's not kind of you to bury my right collar like this." Lang Huai saw Tuoba Yiyang's unconvinced face, hurried over, grabbed a person with one hand, and introduced them to them.

"This is Tuoba Yiyang, the leader on the right. This is an old friend of mine when I conquered the west. The youngest and third brother Lu of Qianfengying, now I am the left leader of the Jinwu Guard of the Imperial Forest Army." Lang Huai did not let go, and continued: "Little brother Knowing that both of you are fierce generals in the world, and you both have bold temperaments, it is a trivial matter for us to gesticulate on the school field and compete in the tavern. But if the friendship is broken because of these, I will turn my face off."

The three looked at each other and smiled, they were all cool people, Tuoba let go of his hand first, shook his beard, and said: "Third brother is a guest from afar, I will be the host tonight, please don't refuse third brother!"

"Of course I don't refuse, Ah Huai, are you going too?" Lu Laosan snorted and turned to look at Lang Huai.

"Go!" Lang Huai naturally agreed, and suddenly remembered that when we parted today, Ming Da asked her to remember to go to Weiyang Residence, I'm afraid she would renege on her promise.

After the court, Lang Huai asked Tao Jun to deliver the news to Weiyang Residence. After thinking for a while, he went back to the corridor room, wrote a note, and said to Tao Jun: "Tell Mingda that I really can't refuse my old friend who hasn't seen him for many years. I will call tomorrow." to see her."

"Yes, sir. After handing over the note, I will go to Anxianglou to find you?" Tao Jun asked casually, and Lang Huai responded, and went out to ride horses to Pingkangfang with the two burly men.

Tuoba Yiyang chose Anxiang Building, which really surprised Lang Huai.Later, remembering that Tuoba was born in Turkic, he is the most hospitable, and he really cares about face, so he smiled and realized.

When he entered the door, Lang Huai was still thinking that he had fought against Mingda downstairs half a year ago.Now he actually taught her how to use a sword hand in hand, and the corners of his lips could not help but smile.When I came back to my senses, I saw that Lu Laosan was a little unnatural.

"Third brother, what's the matter with you?" Lang Huai leaned over and asked, Lu Lao San whispered, "Why is this still a brothel? It's a big deal for my daughter-in-law to know!"

It turned out that it was because of this, Lang Huai said with a smile: "It's okay, my younger brother will accompany you back after we leave, my sister-in-law won't say anything."

Only then did Lao San feel relieved, and followed him to the private room.Tuoba seems to come here often, he only ordered the good dishes that Anxianglou is really good at, and the spirits from Yizhou Prefecture, and he was satisfied: "Mom, we are all straightforward people, you can choose a few girls Come on, Jiao Didi will be spared!"

Lang Huai was so hungry that he waited for the single-cage golden soufflé, took two first, and started to eat.She also often went out to drink with her friends in the imperial forest army, but she never approached women, which is well known.

Unexpectedly, Lu Laosan resolutely postponed.A naive smile appeared on the rough face, and said: "On the day of marriage, I will honor her, and she will be the only one in this life. Brother Tuoba, I will punish myself with three cups, you can do whatever you want!"

After a while, the table was already full of delicacies, and Tuoba Yiyang didn't make things difficult for Lu Lao San, and said with a smile: "The third brother is an upright man, let's compare wine today, and the rest, what do you do with it! Captain, I just said I also invited the Qinshu girl to sing a song, but it was specially invited for you, we all know your character, but don't let the beauty down!"

Lang Huai was surprised, but his face remained calm, and he only responded vaguely.

When these two rough guys fight together for wine, they really can't tell the difference.When the wine was half drunk, they hooked their shoulders together and talked nonsense together.Tuoba even uttered the words of the barbarians. Fortunately, Lu Laosan had been on the Silk Road for a long time, so he was familiar with it and could understand Turkic language.

Lang Huai watched, finally completely relieved.If there is really a suspicion between her left and right arm, it is undoubtedly a dream to lead the Jinwu Guard well.After knocking on the door twice, Lang Huai turned around, and when he saw someone coming, he was really taken aback this time.

Mingda was dressed in fiery red, with a snow-white felt hat on his head, smartly dressed, coming in from the door.Exquisite moccasin boots, and the dagger hanging from her waist, if she hadn't had a Han face, I'm afraid she would have been taken as a barbarian child.

Lang Huai put down the chopsticks in his hand, stood up and walked over and said, "Why are you here? It's so late, are you freezing?"

Ming Da shook his head, Lang Huai looked behind her and saw Tao Jun make a helpless expression: "Master, the girl is coming, I can't stop her!"

"Forget it, go and order to add a plate of crystal dragon and phoenix cake and green onion and vinegar chicken, as well as Guomenxiang." Lang Huaijing ordered Mingda's favorite dishes, then turned around, a little hesitant.

She was dressed in men's clothes, and Lang Huai favored her so much, and Tuoba saw Mingda turn his face, how could he not recognize who she was? "Miss is here, sir, sit down." He didn't think much about why Mingda appeared here. In his opinion, it was nothing more than Mingda not letting go of Lang. He came to investigate the post, and he kindly explained for Lang Huai: "Today, the old friend of the captain came to Beijing. , we are here just to drink and listen to music, these ladies and gentlemen are all accompanying me, a vulgar man, but they have nothing to do with our Captain."

Lu Laosan also sensed something was wrong, looked coldly, and asked: "Ah Huai, who is this? Does Miss Shang know?" In Shule City, Lang Huai took good care of Shang Zixuan, so Lu Laosan thought that Lang Huai fell in love with Shang Zixuan.Furthermore, they misunderstood their love for a concubine, and now that such a beautiful woman appeared, he was upright by nature, so naturally he wanted to complain for Shang Zixuan.

Lang Huai still didn't understand, and said: "Miss Shang doesn't know Mingda, come on, I'll introduce you." She smiled and said: "This is Miss Li, with a small character Mingda, who grew up with me. This is Lu Third brother, I told you that his eyes are comparable to goshawks. This is Brother Tuoba, you should have seen it."

"Brother Tuoba, I've seen you before. I didn't expect to see you this time. You've gained a lot of weight." Mingda turned his eyes and looked at Lu Laosan: "Just now, what did the third brother say about Miss Shang? Who is it? Why doesn't Mingda know?" ?”

Tuoba wanted to give him some advice, but Mingda stared back at him. Now that he was half sober, he couldn't help but secretly exclaimed that it was terrible.Lu Laosan snorted twice, and said: "Miss Shang is the shopkeeper of Lang's firm in Shule City, in charge of the entire Silk Road Lang's firm, but now she has returned to Chang'an, and the entire Lang's firm is also under her management. She is very close to the prince of Duke Mu's mansion, and we in Shule City can see it."

"Ah Huai is not a person who loves the new and dislikes the old, I'm afraid some people just want to make a move." Lu Laosan's words finally annoyed Ming Da, but also made Lang Huai look at a loss.

"When did I like the new and dislike the old, third brother, what are you talking about? Miss Shang is my mother's niece, my cousin." Lang Huai shook his head, "Third brother, you may have misunderstood."

"He also said that he has sharp eyes, he is clearly a chatterbox!" Ming Da turned his face away as he spoke, unwilling to look at Lang Huai.

Lu Laosan was so angry with this little girl, and was about to retort, Tuoba hurriedly toasted with a wine glass: "Girl, I met His Royal Highness King Xiang in Huaqing Palace a few days ago, and I shamelessly begged for a word, Your Highness It was agreed at that time. I don't know if the girl is free, can I ask for Weichen? Weichen is such a Lufu, it is really not good to go to His Highness's house to bother."

Ming Da pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Brother Qi probably forgot, when I go to his place tomorrow, I will ask for it for you and let Brother Huai bring it to you, how about it?"

"Thank you so much!" Tuoba was overjoyed, and gave Lu Laosan winks again and again, and then Lu Laosan remembered that Emperor Ming had a beloved young girl but had no title.

"A Huai, what did you always say about Seventh Brother, did you mean King Xiang?" Lu Laosan asked in a low voice after swallowing a glass of strong wine.

Lang Huai nodded and said: "I used to be the seventh brother's attendant. I grew up with him since I was a child, and I have always been close to him."

Hey, this really offends people who are not easy to mess with.Lu Laosan squinted and saw Mingda eating chicken with green onion and vinegar with a half-smile, showing his pointed canine teeth, just like a yawning cat.Lu Laosan's back turned cold, but he refused to show weakness, and stared at him with his big round eyes. Mingda had already turned his face away, chatting and laughing with Tuoba.

Not long after, the door was knocked again, but it was Qin Shu who came holding Yaoqin.

Since that day, Lang Huai has never seen this beauty again.Looking up, I saw that she described a lot of emaciation, if her face was not powdered, she would probably be pale.Ming Da also showed a look of unbearable, and glanced at Lang Huai.Both of them couldn't help sighing for Li Yu, and only said a few polite words verbally.

Qin Shu was naturally surprised when he saw Ming Da Lang pregnant, but he covered it up very well.She sat by the piano table and said softly: "I wonder what kind of music the masters want to hear?"

"Young girl can play as you like, anything is fine." Mingda saw that she couldn't hide her sadness, so he couldn't help making a sound, and didn't want others to embarrass her.

Seeing that the piano book showed a little grateful expression, he wiped it lightly with his bare hands, but it was a new song that was composed only recently - "Min's Song".

During the Guangqi period of Emperor Xizong of the former dynasty, there were changes in the world.General Chen Xin goes out to suppress the rebellion, and bids farewell to his first wife, Chen Minshi.Unexpectedly, internal changes happened, someone betrayed and betrayed Chen Xin.Chen Xin defended against danger and persisted for six years for Emperor Xizong, and finally died in battle.When Chen Min got the news, he died in love.

This song is naturally about Chen Min's death for love.According to unofficial history, Chen and Min were childhood sweethearts, young couples, and they had only been married for three months before Chen Xin set out to fight.The husband and wife never saw each other again, but they were buried together after death.This story is a well-known script in Chang'an City, and it was composed into a new song some time ago.After Ming Huang heard it, he also sighed and wept.

Lang Huai didn't know the past, but felt that the sound of the piano was sad, and there was hope in the farewell, and he couldn't help feeling pain in his heart, as if something was about to be lost, and he didn't know why.

For a while, everything fell silent.

"Nu's song is too sad, it should not have disturbed the elegant mood of the masters." The piano sound stopped for a long time before Qin Shu came to his senses and was busy apologizing.

"Mingda is really lucky to hear the piano sound like a girl." No wonder Seventh Brother falls in love with her, Mingda finally understands that Qinshu is really for everyone, and Li Yuyin is a confidant, so how can he not fall in love with her?If it was before, Mingda probably wouldn't be able to guess the affection between the two of them through the sound of the piano.Why isn't he heartbroken towards her now?

After talking for a while, Lang Huai saw that the time was really late, so he said: "You two, you continue, it's too late, Mingda is weak, he has to go back to rest, and the younger brother has to see him off. Third brother, I will accompany you to the mansion in the future Please explain, don't worry."

"The captain is good to send the girl off, and I'll say hello to the third brother." Tuoba naturally sent him off respectfully, and Lu Laosan also said: "You go back, see you tomorrow on the school grounds."

"I still have some things I want to ask Miss Qinshu. I wonder if the girl can show her face and move?" Lang Huai saw Mingda put on his felt hat and tidy up, so he asked Qinshu who hadn't left yet to make an appointment.

"Please, young master." Qin Shu remained calm and pushed open the door.

When the four of them walked into the courtyard, Lang Huaicai said: "Seventh Brother is fine now, please rest assured, Miss." She is not unreasonable and knows that if it were not for the situation, the two of them would not have ended like this.

"Thank you for letting me know, my lord. Please bring a message to Your Highness." Qin Shu lowered his head, paused for a moment, and then said, "Your Highness, please take care of it, and don't worry about being a slave."

Lang Huai waited for some time, and seeing that she didn't say anything, he nodded with Ming Da and left together.

Tao Jun had already got out of the carriage, lit a charcoal fire, and the interior of the carriage was warm.After Mingda got into the car, his face turned red not long after.

"Brother Huai, what happened to that Miss Shang, why haven't I heard you mention it?" Ming Da asked her directly without beating around the bush.

Lang Huai was thinking about the matter of Qinshu, and casually said: "She is the head of the firm, and now she has returned to Chang'an. My mother arranged to live in the mansion, so that it is convenient for the director."

"According to what Lu Lao San said just now, you are very close?" Ming Da stared at Lang Huai without blinking his eyes.

"Haha, you think so too?" Lang Huai put aside his thoughts and said with a smile, "We only have sister and brother feelings, and the third brother has misunderstood."

"Ms. Shang was a homeless woman before, and she suffered a lot. My mother asked me to take care of her, so she came closer." Lang Huai explained with a smile: "I treat her as a sister, just like treating Seventh Brother as an elder brother. You are like a younger sister, no different."

After listening to the previous words, Ming Da was finally relieved, but Lang Huai's last words really touched the girl's scales.She saw the corners of her lips that were originally curved, and she only gave Lang Huai a supercilious look, and ignored her.

When Lang Huai returned home, he was still sighing secretly: What did Zen Sheng say to annoy this girl?
