Tang Xuan

The city lord's mansion in Shule City is now the mansion of General Zhengxi.Lang Huai has his own courtyard in the east courtyard, and he lives here except for his busy military affairs on weekdays.Originally, Lang Shixin wanted to send him some maids, but Lang Huai refused.

Xu Shi drank good tea, Lang Huai couldn't sleep today.He simply carried the short sword and practiced in the yard.

Farewell to Chang'an, it has been three years now.As time passed, it seemed that the longing became more restrained.Sometimes, Lang Huai had the illusion that wandering the streets of Chang'an and boating with Li Yu on the Qujiang River had already happened in his previous life.

The dagger danced slowly, Lang Huai seemed to be thinking of something else.His footwork was not as neat as usual.

At the beginning, he insisted on coming here to fight for some military merits, so that he could go a little easier on the road to succeeding Duke Mu, so that his mother could continue to be his wife in a dignified manner.

But fighting on the battlefield, this original intention has long since changed.Today's Lang Huai wants to be a competent soldier like his predecessors.

But what counts as competent?Lang Huai didn't know what the answer was.Father?It doesn't seem to count.The generals of the founding era of the Tang Dynasty have long since fallen and disappeared in time.Lang Huai felt that they might not all be right.

For the past six months, Lang Huai has been in Shule City almost all of his time, sorting out business, and the battlefield seems to be far away.This made him even more confused.

Mr. Zhu came back with the decocted medicine in his hands, just in time to see Lang Huai raising his sword to the moon, breathing heavily, and sweating heavily. "Master! What's the matter?" She took two steps at a time, ran to Lang Huai, put down the medicine bowl, and supported Lang Huai.

Lang Huai woke up suddenly and felt very weak for a while.But he still didn't want to throw away the dagger, and was supported by Mr. Zhu into the house, where he sat on the soft couch.

"I know you are diligent, but you can't be so disregarding your body. Tao Jun said that the medicine you are taking now is extremely harmful to your health. If you don't cherish it yourself, I will simply beat you unconscious and take you back to Chang'an! Mr. Zhu took back the medicine bowl, blew on it, and said, "Drink it."

Lang Huai has always had no temper for his maidservant.He quickly drank the medicine, gasped for breath, and said, "Can't we make pills? It would be too troublesome."

"Well, you have to ask him." Mr. Zhu looked outside and scolded, "Tao Jun hasn't come back at this hour, really."

Lang Huai waved his hand and explained for Tao Jun: "He has to watch Shangguan Xuan for the past few days, I'm afraid he won't be free. I'm fine, I'm absorbed in thinking about things for a while, it doesn't matter."

Mr. Zhu handed him warm water, and when he finished drinking, he sighed and said, "Master, you don't want to talk about anything now. However, I still hope that you will be more cheerful and don't be too bored."

Lang Huai didn't know how to answer for a while, and at the end, he laughed at himself: "When you get here, be careful everywhere and pay attention to everything. Sometimes I have no choice but to make you two suffer too much."

"However, this battle will be over in two or three years." Lang Huai smiled and comforted his nominal maidservant and actual sister, "When you return to Chang'an in the future, you will also be old enough to leave the court. But Do you have a sweetheart?"

"Master!" Zhu Jun blushed and spat, "Master, are you stupid? In the eyes of outsiders, Lan Jun, Mei Jun and I are all yours."

"It doesn't matter to outsiders, it's not that you don't know who I am." Lang Huai didn't care about this, and said: "If anyone of you has someone you like, just tell me, and I will take care of it!"

Mr. Zhu smiled, "Master, in fact, following you, we all feel very good. At least, we can be free."

"You won't hold us back, it's really better than being married." Zhu Jun was busy embroidering a purse for Lang Huai, and she looked a little weird in men's clothes, only to hear her whisper: "It's a girl, like that Identity, to say something outrageous, is not also trapped in Weiyang residence. Who will marry in the future, and be favored again, can she let her?"

"Mingda..." The appearance of that little girl appeared in Lang Huai's mind, with a delicate body, but an unbelievably arrogant person. "You are all the ones who have been punished by her, do you still expect her to be happy in the future?"

"Isn't it? Although the girl is arrogant, she jokes a lot." Mr. Zhu curled his lips and said, "But she will never use her status to deliberately punish us. Unlike other nobles in Chang'an City, she can kill people when she speaks. "

After a few days, Lang Huai finished handling the military affairs, bid farewell to Lu Laosan who was pulling him to go to Lefang again, and returned to the small courtyard.Tao Jun came up from the inside and said, "Master, I found out."

Lang Huai nodded, and said: "Eat first, we'll talk after we're done. Don't worry until now."

After entering the house, Mr. Zhu came back with a food box after a while.Lang Huai took the host seat, and the three of them had dinner together without formality.

Fan Bi, Tao Jun was about to say, but Lang Huai stopped him, and said with a smile, "Wait for Mr. Zhu to come back."

Tao Jun was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "My lord is right, otherwise I would have to explain."

After a while, Mr. Zhu came back and yelled when he entered the door: "Didn't you say that?"

Tao Jun said: "No, my master said, I'll wait for you when you come back."

Lang Huai had already changed into a long gown by himself, stepped on his head-turned shoes, his hair was loose, and a thick braid was tied behind his head. "Everyone is here, let's talk."

"Yes." Tao Jun drank his saliva and said, "As I expected, he is indeed a descendant of the Shangguan family in the west of Chang'an City."

"The younger one followed for a few days, and found out the details of this Shangguan Xuan. Shangguan Xuan is now 20 years old and has never been married. There are not many people in their family. Apart from their mother, they only have a younger brother who is six or seven years old. Le, but it was within the past six months. But Shangguan Xuan speaks Tubo fluently, so I checked again as a kid, and they came all the way from Qiuci to here."

"But don't worry, for the past few days, Shangguan Xuan has only gone to the music workshop on time, and then went to the pharmacy to get medicine. Her mother is seriously ill. According to the neighbors, she has been unable to get out of bed for two months and will continue to be taken care of."

"As for the music workshop, there are some people who want to pay for this nobleman who is a performer but not a person. It's just that Shangguan Xuan would rather die than follow, and the old lady knows her flute playing level. She is the best in Shule City. Okay, so I still protect her, nothing major happened."

After waiting for a long time, Tao Jun didn't say anything, Zhu Jun opened his eyes wide, "It's over?"

Tao Jun nodded and replied, "It's over."

Lang Huai said with a smile: "Since that's the case, you two will accompany me tomorrow, and then go to the music workshop."

"Master, what is this?" Mr. Zhu asked after guessing something.

"Although Tao Jun didn't find anything, just in case, I have to see this girl again." Lang Huaicong no longer doubted in his heart. , Naturally, we must fulfill our promise to our mother.

As dusk approached, Lang Huai changed his clothes and returned to the previous attire. He brought pottery and bamboo and came to Lefang again.

The old bustard still recognized him, came up to him with a smile, and said, "Your master is here? Didn't you see the third master today? Or is it the same as last time?"

Lang Huai pretended to be shy, and said in a low voice: "To tell you the truth, I just miss the sound of Miss Shangguan's flute and want to invite her to play a piece, but I don't know if I can do it?" Jun exposed a piece of silver, deliberately showing it to the bustard.

"If you can do it, why can't you do it?" The old bustard smiled, and deliberately said: "It's just that our Shangguan girl is just a musician, so please..."

"I understand the rules, don't worry." Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Lang Huai didn't bother to say anything, and went into a room under the guidance of the old bustard, which seemed more simple than last time.

"Aunt Yun, I'm the only one, I'm afraid it's not right?" Shangguan Xuan heard that it was the young master from that time, he couldn't help being a little scared, and wanted to refuse.

"It's okay, Aunt Yun, what kind of eyesight do I have? That son is really not a lewd person. Besides, he is generous and handsome." Aunt Yun said in a low voice: "Aunt Yun knows that you are short of silver. This kind of business is comparable to others. It’s easy to do. You go in and follow what he says, I’ll send someone to wait outside, if something happens, just shout!”

As soon as Shangguan Xuan thought of his mother and younger brother, his reward here would not last long.I had no choice but to grit my teeth and agree, betting that the young master really just likes the sound of her flute!

When he reached the door, Shangguan Xuan knocked on the door.The person inside said indifferently: "The door is not locked, please come in." It is frank and open, and only regards this place as its own home.

After entering, I saw the young man in a plain robe, pouring himself a wine jug.His two servants were also sitting at the bottom, eating, looking bored.

"Girl, I missed your flute for a long time last time, please don't dislike the interruption this time." Lang Huai smiled, although it was a polite word, it was also from the bottom of his heart.

Shangguan Xuan sat on the pier in the hall and asked, "I don't know what song you want to hear, my lord?"

Lang Huai held on to the wine glass, thought for a while and said: "I have been away from home for a long time, and I am very homesick. The girl can figure it out."

The sound of the flute gradually rose, but it was not as clear and passionate as it was a few days ago.The wanderer left home and said goodbye to his parents. The journey was hard and unexpected.Shangguan Xuan's originally hanging heart gradually melted into the music.

Musicians can't extricate themselves, let alone bosom friends and listeners?

Lang Huai narrowed his eyes, captured Shangguan Xuan's state of mind in this song, and sighed secretly that she is really a tough woman, but he had to test her.

In what year will we return to our hometown?Where is Gaotang Mingjing?Neighborhood is not old-fashioned.

Lang Huai clapped his hands and praised: "Young lady is such a good song, she is really comparable to Chang'an musicians. I wonder if young lady knows "Folding Willow Song"?"

The willows are broken on the Baqiao, and we are reluctant to say goodbye.This piece is known in every music workshop in Chang'an City. Seeing her nodding, Lang Huai pursed his lips and said with a smile: "What I'm talking about is the piece composed by the late Prime Minister Shangguan Yibo."

Shangguan Xuan was startled suddenly, the flute fell from her hand, she hurriedly bent down to pick it up, calmed her breath, and concealed: "I don't know what you are talking about, "The Song of Folding Willows" is a famous song in Chang'an, I will know it."

"When I traveled away from my hometown in the past, my mother once said that this song by Prime Minister Shangguan was only circulated in a few houses with whom I had good acquaintances. I saw that the girl's surname was changed to Shangguan, and her accent was similar to mine, so I thought that the girl might know this song. "

Shangguan Xuan was silent for a while, then shook his head and said: "My lord, I have misunderstood, I have never been to Chang'an City in my life, and I have never heard of Shangguan Yibo."

"Really?" Lang Huai refilled his glass again, and said, "Ten years ago, Prime Minister Shangguan died of illness, but the patriarch was inherited by the second son. Since then, the eldest son, Shangguan Hong, has disappeared in Chang'an City."

Seeing Shangguan Xuan's increasingly terrified expression, Lang Huai couldn't bear it, but he still said: "After the investigation by the governor of Chang'an, he posted an official list, saying that Shangguan Hong was ambitious and poisoned his father. He escaped in fear of crime."

"Nonsense!" Shangguan Xuan cursed subconsciously, but Lang Huai ignored him and said, "I didn't know how old I was ten years ago, but I was also curious. He is the eldest son, why is he so stupid?"

"Seeing his daughter today is an eye-opener for me." Lang Huai walked into Shangguanxuan at some point, stared into her eyes, and said coldly: "What is your purpose in Shule City now? You and Are there any collusion among the Tibetans? It’s not true!”

The author has something to say: Mr. Codeword explains it here.

Originally, the opening chapter of "Tang Huang" was not like this, and Mr. Codeword has written about 10 words.

But the more I wrote, the more I felt that if Lang Huai appeared like that, the character of the character would be difficult to stand up to scrutiny.

Besides, her age from 12 to 17 is really too important.Therefore, Mr. Codeword considered again and again, or quit the lazy cancer, re-arranged, and wrote about Zhengxi.

As you can see, not all plots revolve around wars.Mr. Codeword still knows how many catties and taels he has, and he is not good at this kind of description.

What Mr. Codeword pays attention to is how a mature child has been polished, knows how to behave in the world, and at the same time has a heart of innocence.Only in this way, what Lang Huai did in Chang'an City in the future will not appear a little pale.

So, student Li Mingda, let's play with Seventh Brother in Chang'an City first!Some friends think that the opening chapter is too long, so they let it go and come back after a while.This point will not be explained further.Codeword Jun's pit product, I feel pretty good about myself, please rest assured.

This chapter describes Mingda's temperament~

Also, Shangguan Xuan is just soy sauce, the two of them have no relationship line, no!

In the end, I complained that the title of the chapter exhausted all the brains of Mr. Codeword, so annoying.
