Tang Xuan

Shule City was restored, and Lang Shixin adopted a policy of stability and restrained military discipline.Not long after, the hustle and bustle of Shule City gradually recovered.

Lang Shixin didn't hide Lang Huai's identity anymore, so most people in Zhengxi Army already knew that Mu Guogong's eldest son was in Qianfeng Battalion, made great achievements in battle, and became the youngest flying cavalry captain in Datang.

There is also envy, friendship, and disdain.Lang Huai was a little annoyed at first, but after a long time, he was able to handle it with ease.Now he really doesn't have much energy to care about these things. Lang Shixin wants him to take care of Shule's business affairs, but he can't make the prosperous business affairs go down.

He understood that this was his father's exercise.But he is a soldier after all, and he still doesn't quite understand what he does.Fortunately, there is Lu Laosan, the Silk Road Connector, who helps a lot.After more than a year, there are row upon row of wine shops and shops on the South Street of Shule, which has the posture of the West City of Chang'an City.

Coming down from the battlefield, Lang Huai changed into his usual Hu clothes, took Mr. Tao Junzhu, and Mr. Lu to the streets of Shule City together.

Since Lu Laosan knew Lang Huai's identity, he was a little scared at first.After all, I was not very polite to Lang Huai back then.Unexpectedly, Lang Huai not only didn't hold any grudges at all, but also directly promoted himself as a lieutenant general, which moved Lu Laosan so much that he couldn't be more moved.

"Ah Huai, third brother, I have heard that this building is good. You are fifteen now, don't tell third brother that you have never approached a woman!" Lu Laosan couldn't help but dragged Lang Huai into the house. A band opened by people.Although it is called Lefang, it can be seen at a glance what business it is actually doing.

Lang Huai couldn't refuse and was forced to go in.Mr. Zhu cursed angrily, and pulled Tao Jun to follow quickly.

It seems that Lu Laosan is a frequent visitor here during this period of time.A long time ago, the old bustard greeted her, pinched her body and smiled: "Third Master, are you here? Yo, where did such a handsome little brother come from? Is it your son?"

Lu Laosan was taken aback, "What nonsense, this is the third master, my little brother!" No matter how brave he was, he couldn't recognize that sentence, otherwise if it spread, where would he put Lang Shixin?

The old bustard watched all directions with his eyes and listened to all directions, and he already saw that Lang Huai's status was not low, not to mention that Tao and Zhu who followed them were obviously Lang Huai's followers. "How many of you, sit upstairs in the private room! Do you want the girls to choose?"

There is an orchid in the hall, dancing to the bright tune.The hot dress and the honey-colored waist are really like the rising sun.

Although Lang Huai knew that he should not stay in such a place, he still smiled and said, "I wonder if I can invite this girl?"

The old bustard was taken aback for a moment, and immediately smiled and said: "It makes me!"

The private room is decorated like a herdsman's tent, except that the equipment is exquisite and the shape is more unique.Lang Huai actually saw a set of tea sets imitated from Yaozhou kiln. You should know that this kind of thing is considered a good item in Chang'an City.What's more, this set of tea-cooking equipment can obviously be regarded as a masterpiece in folk kilns.

Lang Huai sat on the ground, and gave Tao and Zhu a wink, signaling them to relax and keep their sense of proportion.

Soon, the bustard came in with a few people.It must have been done by Lu Laosan just now, and the women who came in were all about fifteen years old, and among them was orchid who had just danced.

"This is Carliss, this is Ru Yan, our best tea maker, this is Seys, this is Shangguan Xuan who just played the flute, but she is not a girl from our hotel, but a hired musician .” After the old bustard made the recommendation, he smiled and closed the door.

"Are you the best at making tea?" Lang Huai hadn't drank tea for many years since leaving Chang'an.Back then when Wei Qian was studying at Yi Chu, Li Yu told him a lot about his experience in making tea, and especially admired Master Yu, saying that he was particular about frying tea, and really restored the original fragrance of tea.But that way of drinking tea is only considered elegant among the officials and gentry, and has never been introduced to the common people.So Lang has this question.

Ru Yan was stunned for a moment, then pursed her lips and said, "Young master is joking, but I only know a little bit about it."

Lu Laosan had already taken out a small silver knife, cut off the roasted leg of lamb, and ordered the other three women to play and dance.Lang Huai thought of Chang'an for a moment, and said to Ru Yan, "Let me cook for you. I haven't been back to Chang'an for many years, and I almost forgot the taste of tea."

"Sit down, there is no need to be polite." Lang Huai smiled at Ru Yan, showing his white teeth, he was really a handsome young man.

Zhu Jun wanted to help, but was stopped by Lang Huai. "Brother Seven also taught me back then, I wonder how much I remember now?" Lang Huai sighed while washing the pot and tea bucket with boiling hot water.

"Why do you still have a seventh brother? I remember that you are not the eldest son?" Lu Laosan asked casually, and Lang Huai smiled and said, "That is my friend in Chang'an City, just like the third brother. Like you, you are brothers."

"That's a good relationship. When I go to Chang'an in the future, Ah Huai, remember to recommend it to me!" Lu Laosan wiped his oily hands, grabbed a piece of naan, and ate happily.

"It's just you? Don't be ridiculous." Of course Mr. Zhu knew that Seventh Brother was referring to King Xiang Li Yu, so how could Lu Laosan, a commoner, just think about it casually.Lu Laosan had already seen that Mr. Zhu was a woman, but he only said that Lang Shixin was worried about his son's arrangement, so he always ignored it.

"Azhu, don't talk nonsense." Lang Huai remembered that when he was parting, the young man was about to cry with a bitter face, and he was really sadder than himself, so he couldn't help saying: "Seventh brother has always been open-minded, how can anyone else be more open-minded than me?" ? If he can recognize a hero like the third brother, he will naturally respect the wine of the third brother."

As soon as the flute sounded, he jumped forward passionately.The bodies of Carlisse and Seis also spun along with the change of the music.While admiring Hu Xuanwu from a different place, Lang Huai poured tea and sencha.

Yu Fuzi pays attention to the natural decoction of tea and does not add dairy products.Lang Huai's technique is not very skilled, but he is generally correct.Not long after, clear tea was poured into the celadon bucket, exuding a faint aroma.

"My lord, I don't understand why you cook it like this?" Ru Yan asked curiously.

Lang Huai picked up the tea bucket, handed it to her, and said with a smile, "Just try it."

Ru Yan took it, frowned, and took a sip.She has been learning how to make tea with her master since she was five or six years old, and she is confident that she is the best tea maker in Shule City.But this time, in front of this young man who didn't know his background, he somewhat lost his confidence.

"How?" Lang Huai drank a cup himself, feeling homesick, and his tone became gloomy.

Tasting again and again, Ru Yan raised her head and bowed solemnly until she drank all the remaining tea in the tea bucket. She said, "Young master is so skillful in cooking tea that ordinary people dare not imagine. Ru Yan is willing to worship you as a teacher and learn this cooking method." .”

Lang Huai shook his head, feeling a little sad, and said: "I didn't create this first. Master Yu has passed away long ago, but the books he wrote have been handed down. I only found out about it when I was in Chang'an City in the past and got friends to share it."

At this time, the sound of the flute was getting low, and the two orchids also stopped and saluted.Lu Laosan didn't care about this, took a few sips from the tea bucket, but didn't like it: "Ah Huai, it's hard, what is it? I don't like it, I'm drinking." He hugged Caris and smiled. Hehe said: "Beauty, you just turned around, third brother, my eyes are dizzy!"

Lang Huai said to Shangguan who was still sitting on the pier: "Girl, come and have a sip of tea to moisten your throat."

Shangguan Xuan walked over in silence, sat on the ground, took the tea bucket, a little absent-minded.She had heard what Cai Lang Huai said just now, he was from Chang'an, and being able to drink tea prepared in this way showed that he had an unusual status.

"The girl's surname is Shangguan. I don't know if it has something to do with the Shangguan family in the west of Chang'an City?" Lang Huai observed the changes in Shangguan Xuan's expression, and deliberately tested her.

"No..." Shangguan was taken aback, and hastily denied: "I'm a mere commoner in my family, how can I get high? It's just a coincidence."

Lang Huai didn't point out that she was lying, and said with a light smile, "I don't know if the tea I'm cooking suits the girl's wishes?"

Shangguan Xuan nodded subconsciously, and said: "The taste is slightly bitter, but the aftertaste is sweet. The young master is skilled in cooking, so my family will naturally like it."

Lang Huai stopped talking to her, just smiled at her, and turned around to chat with Lu Laosan. It was nothing more than saying that the Silk Road is becoming more and more prosperous now, and there are beautiful scenery along the way.

Mr. Tao Junzhu felt relieved when he saw that Lang Huai hadn't drunk at all.The two of them were also hungry, so they didn't pay attention to it just now. Now, smelling the exotic delicacies at the table, and Lu Lao San's example in front of them, they just ate to their heart's content and didn't care about anything else.

Lu Laosan drank too much, and even took Seis into his arms, hugging left and right, so happy.

Lang Huai didn't bother him, he talked to Ru Yan about cooking tea in a low voice, and explained in detail what Ru Yan didn't understand.

During the whole banquet, Shangguan Xuan was the only one who was distracted.Fang Cai Lang Huai looked at her with a look that he knew everything about.

How can you meet Chang'an Xungui when you only travel far beyond the Great Wall?So she didn't change her surname, but she met Lang Huai unexpectedly.This person is not only the son of Chang'an Xungui, but also knows the Shangguan family in the west of the city.How can this prevent Shangguan Xuan from burning his heart?

As night fell, Lu Laosan was destined to stay overnight.Lang Huai patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Third brother, thank you for your hospitality today. But I promised my father that I will go back today. You sit here for a while, and I will leave first."

Lu Laosan was fascinated by the two orchids, so he hummed twice to understand.Lang Huai didn't know Lu Lao San's character, so he stood up and said, "Tao Jun, A Zhu, let's go."

After all, he said to Ru Yan: "It was very pleasant talking with the girl today, and I will come to visit again when I have time."

After coming out of the music workshop, Lang Huai went to the corner, and then told Tao Jun in a low voice: "Be careful, go follow that Shangguan Xuan. See where she is staying and who is in the family? How long have you been here. Anyway, tell me Find out all about her."

"Master, why is this? It's just a musician." Mr. Zhu was a little puzzled, and he didn't understand why Lang Huai was so motivating the teachers and mobilizing the crowd.

"Hmph, people from Shangguan's family in Chang'an went to Shule to be musicians? You must know that the brothels in wine shops are the most well-informed." Lang Huai explained briefly, and said: "The expedition to the west must be done with all efforts, I will not allow anyone to spoil it."

Tao Jun responded, took off his outer robe and handed it to Mr. Zhu, only wearing shorts, and disappeared into the crowd in a flash.

"Master, will the Shangguan family cooperate with the enemy?" Jun Zhu couldn't help asking as he followed Lang Huai to the direction of the city lord's mansion.

"It's hard to say, just in case." Lang Huai shook his head, but felt that the woman who could play the flute so clearly was not the kind of picky person.
