[Datang Shuanglong] Aspiration

Manqingyuan is the most famous and elegant place in Luoyang City. Not only are the courtiers and dancers in the courtyard beautiful, but even the maidservants who serve tea and water are elegant and moving.

On this day, Wang Shichong of Luoyang widely distributed invitations, inviting heroes from all walks of life who came to Luoyang to reunite with the jade to gather in Manqingyuan.Of course, it is impossible to bluntly mention He's Bi in the invitation. The reason given is that Shang Xiufang, a well-known talented woman in the world, will perform a dance at the Manqingyuan. Wang Shichong sincerely invites everyone to appreciate the wonderful performance.

Although in the matter of competing for the world, all forces can be regarded as mutual enemies, but in fact, under the rapidly changing situation, there is no such simple distinction between friends and foes: the long-distance and short-term attacks, marriage alliances and alliances between the various forces are very important. Ordinarily, it is not uncommon to see behaviors that are warm on the surface and stumbling behind the back.

At this time, Luoyang was the focus of the whole world's attention. All forces were attracted by Cihang Jingzhai, and they sent envoys to Luoyang City to wait for the opportunity. As the host, Wang Shichong always had to express something. Firstly, it is not good for him to directly offend Cihang Jingzhai, who is the leader of the White Way; secondly, he should issue a warning by the way: After all, Luoyang City is still his Wang Shichong's territory, no matter how arrogant people come here, they should restrain themselves; Representatives of forces with hatred and grievances, please wait until you leave Luoyang to settle the matter in private.

Many things between the various forces were originally tacit, for example, this time, even Li Mi's second son Li Tianfan came to Luoyang City openly under the protection of the master's attendant, Wang Shichong who was confronting Li Mi on the battlefield Don't they want to arrest Li Tianfan?Of course he even wants to dream, but he also can't act rashly, because there is Cihang Jingzhai on the outside, and the Dugu Man on the inside is restraining him. Wang Shichong didn't know how much he hated Luoyang for "replacing the gods" in his heart, but he had to barely maintain his superficial demeanor.

Li Shimin is naturally the representative of the Li Clan, and the general who guards him is Li Jing and his wife Hong Funu, who once had a relationship with Ssangyong. What's more meaningful is that the female companion accompanying Li Shimin is Dongming princess Shan Wan. Jing, in this way, even if there are many people who want to touch Li Shimin, they should carefully weigh the consequences.

Not only the heroes from the north gathered together, but the Song Clan in Lingnan also attached great importance to Heshibi. Even Song Que's only son, Song Shidao, came to Luoyang in person, which shows the attitude of the Song Clan.Compared with the younger generation of the three clans in the north, Song Shidao is very low-key. He rarely puts on ostentation, and is always gentle and polite to others. In addition, the Song clan in the far south of the Lingnan has always stayed out of the fight for hegemony, and he has not shown it yet. With too much ambition, the major forces in the north are of course unwilling to easily offend the Song Clan, not to mention that most of them still have business contacts with the Song Clan, so how can they cut off their own money.

"Nephew Song Xian came from afar, but I am really happy to teach Shishu—" Song Shidao and his party entered the Man Qingyuan, and were led to the door of the banquet hall by the maidservants, where they were greeted by Wang Shichong in person. With a hearty smile, he said, "My nephew is really charming. I think I went to Lingnan to pay a visit to the Song clan leader in person, and I am still impressed by your father's demeanor!" Wang Shichong was followed by his two sons, Wang Xuanying and Wang Xuanshu. They are Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling and Dong Shuni. Ssangyong's current status is Wang Shichong's confidant and staff, so they can accompany Wang Shichong to receive guests from all parties.

Song Shidao specially dressed up for this grand event. He was dressed in white and jade ornaments, and his hair was tied with a gold belt.Kou Zhong stared at him for a long while without blinking, and then reluctantly moved his eyes away, and saw Song Lu smiling kindly, nodding his head slightly as a greeting; Song Yuzhi blinked, He cast a meaningful look at Kou Zhong.

"Wang Shishu is too polite," Song Shidao said with a gentle smile, "My father once told my nephew that Wang Shishu is a hero in the world, and I want my nephew to ask you, Shishu, for advice."

Wang Shi was full of surprise and said: "The lord really said that? Haha, to be praised by the lord is simply more satisfying than drinking fine nectar and jade dew. I am really overjoyed!" After half a step, he stretched out his hand and said, "Nephew, please come with me, we must have a good chat tonight."

Song Shidao nodded with a smile, and walked in with Wang Shichong, taking a half step behind to show respect. Dong Shuni did not avoid suspicion, and approached Song Shidao directly, and said with a coquettish smile, "Brother Song, you are so handsome. As for you, Shuni has heard your name for a long time, and I have longed for you day and night, but now I finally see you." While talking, she gave a big look, so bold and unrestrained, even Song Lu felt a little embarrassed. can not watch anymore.

Kou Zhong's face turned black immediately, Xu Ziling tugged his sleeve calmly as a reminder, Kou Zhong barely suppressed his jealousy, unexpectedly Wang Shichong immediately said fondly: "Shuni has always been innocent, and my nephew is about the same age as her, so I can get close to her." Kou Zhong's eyes suddenly showed a chill, which made Song Yuzhi, who was watching the play, hold back his laughter until his stomach ached. .

In fact, it can't be blamed on Dong Shuni's ignorance of self-love. In fact, Wang Shichong has always cultivated his beautiful niece as a social butterfly, which made Dong Shuni become like this.Song Shidao smiled softly: "Miss Shuni is really cute, and my nephew can't help but want to love her as a little sister." He turned to look at Song Yuzhi and said, "Yuzhi and Shuni might as well get together Let's talk about the whispers of our daughter's family together?"

Song Yuzhi knew that her brother was using her as a shield, and hurriedly squeezed between Song Shidao and Dong Shuni wisely, and said with a sassy smile: "The customs and styles of Luoyang and Lingnan are indeed very different, so I have many questions to ask Shuni Sister, ask me, Sister Suni won't find me troublesome, will she?"

Wang Shichong immediately understood that Song Shidao had rejected his "pimping", so naturally he stopped forcing it, and after taking the topic away lightly, he started talking nonsense with Song Shidao and others.

Seeing Song Shidao, Song Lu, and Wang Shichong's father and son back and forth playing verbal Tai Chi, Song Yuzhi and Dong Shuni fell behind a few steps knowingly, and simply chatted with Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling.

"Kou Shaoxia turned the Jiangyin area upside down, and he came to Luoyang to be free and easy. He really is free and easy," Song Yuzhi complained half-truthfully, then looked at Xu Ziling, and smiled: "Xu Shaoxia looks better than your good brother." Much more honest."

"Ha, he just looks honest, but he's actually full of bad things, unlike me," Kou Zhong winked, and continued: "I'm just joking, my nature is absolutely upright." Xu Ziling responded If he didn't comment at all, he wouldn't be interested in participating in the banter between his aunts and sisters-in-law.

On the contrary, Dong Shuni looked left and right, and suddenly realized: "So you have known each other for a long time," she said, she suddenly took Kou Zhong's arm, and said coquettishly: "Brother Kou, do you like Suni more, or do you like me?" Yuzhi has more girls?"

Facing Song Yuzhi's glare with strong condemnation, Kou Zhong immediately pulled his hand out, walked away from Dong Shuni several steps away, and said with a sneer: "Miss Dong, don't make such a joke, you and I are innocent, we He and Ms. Song are a lesson to the heavens, and it will trouble me a lot if you ask such a question."

Dong Shuni giggled, looked at Kou Zhong and Song Yuzhi ambiguously and said, "I understand, you two... Ha, don't worry, I was just joking, but I actually like Yuzhi's brother more."

"Hey?!" Song Yuzhi was startled, and finally had a very intuitive understanding of Dong Shuni's passion: Is this trying to catch her brother and sister-in-law all in one go?This is too much... Song Yuzhi wiped his sweat secretly, pretending to be regretful and said: "But my brother already has a sweetheart, and I really can't live up to Sister Shuni's heart." With these words alone, Kou Zhong is grateful to the kind and considerate girl from the bottom of her heart.

"That's such a pity," Dong Shuni said, but her tone was very casual, obviously not taking it to heart.She immediately changed her target, cast a wink at Xu Ziling, and said, "But Brother Kou's good brothers really have their own merits. Last time, the one surnamed Yue and Brother Xu made it difficult for Suni to choose."

"..." Song Yuzhi was completely speechless to Dong Shuni, Kou Zhong quickly said: "Then Ziling, you can accompany Miss Dong, I will take Miss Song for a walk around." He winked at Song Yuzhi , the two quickly walked away in an extremely tacit understanding.

"..." Xu Ziling lay on the gun extremely desolately: Good brothers are really unreliable, especially good brothers who are married!

Wang Shichong led Song Shidao and the others to the banquet hall. The design here is unique. It is formed by four three-story stacked buildings in the southeast, northwest, and surrounds a fifty-foot-square venue in the middle.

There are more than ten wing rooms on each floor on the four sides. The side facing the venue is a balcony, so that people in the wing rooms can have a clear view of the performances in the field, and they can also have a glimpse of the scenes in other wing rooms. You can also hear the voice clearly, it really is a good place to watch performances and exchange conversations, but also because of this, everyone is talking to each other at the moment, and no one will choose to discuss any huge secrets in this kind of place .

When Wang Shichong led Song Shidao into the banquet hall and walked towards the wing room, everyone who arrived earlier, including Li Shimin, greeted them very politely. Naturally, Song Shidao would not be rude, smiled warmly and naturally, and nodded his head as a signal.

Wang Shichong directly took Song Shidao to his private room, which was naturally the most luxurious main room, to show the extreme importance he attached to the Song Clan - he did this, of course, to win over the Song Clan.Seeing this situation, Li Mi's son Li Tianfan immediately walked to the balcony, leaning on the railing, and said casually, "Brother Song, where is Miss Yuzhi now?"

Li Tianfan's words were actually reminding the Song Clan to keep an appropriate distance from Wang Shichong, because the Song Clan had previously agreed with Li Mi that after Li Mi's Wagang Army captured Luoyang, they would marry Song Yuzhi to Li Tianfan as his wife.This was a unanimous decision made by the top management of the Song clan earlier, and Song Shidao at the time had no objection, but the young clan leader was sure that it was impossible for Li Mi to capture Luoyang, so he always used the excuse that secret cooperation is better than open communication, Prevent the two parties from publicizing this agreement to protect Song Yuzhi's reputation—in short, Song Shidao would never marry his baby sister. If Song Yuhua hadn't been young and had no right to speak when Song Yuhua got engaged, Song Shidao would not have been willing to watch him. My sister became a political bargaining chip.

Coincidentally, as soon as Li Tianfan finished speaking, Kou Zhong and Song Yuzhi walked into the banquet hall. Li Tianfan fixed his eyes, pointed at Kou Zhong and shouted: "Where did you come from, stay away from my unmarried wife!" !" As soon as these words came out, all the rooms fell silent, waiting to see the opening show.

There was murderous intent hidden in Song Yuzhi's eyes, and his pretty face was flushed with anger. Although Kou Zhong didn't know the cause and effect, he understood when he saw the expressions of Song Shidao's brothers and sisters. Let’s talk about me? All the sisters and sisters here are the wives of my wife, Kou Zhongwei, who is this brother who is not clear-headed talking about?”

The crowd was in an uproar for a moment, and a beautiful girl with a cold jade face came out of one of the wing rooms, wearing a black warrior uniform and a red silk smock, and said coldly: "Nonsense words, do you owe a lesson to you prodigal son?! "

Kou Zhong didn't know who this woman was, so he didn't know how to respond for a moment, Song Shidao immediately made a rescue and said: "Miss Dugufeng still understands the truth, if, as Brother Li said, anyone who hasn't passed the family can be regarded as a wife, wouldn't that be the case in the world?" Is there a big mess?" He dismissed Kou Zhong's joke, then looked at Song Yuzhi again, and said with a smile, "Did Yuzhi just now, brother Kou under Uncle Yang Wang Shishu, introduce you to Manqingyuan? Go upstairs quickly. Come to thank Uncle Wang Shi for his meticulous hospitality."

Before Song Yuzhi could answer, Xu Ziling and Dong Shuni also stepped into the banquet hall. Xu Ziling, who was clear-eyed and clear-eyed, immediately smiled and said, "It was the three of us who accompanied Ms. Song just now, so I can't let my brother take the credit alone." Kou Zhongchao Xu Ziling With a wink of "You're really good", they guarded Song Yuzhi from left to right, and Dong Shuni who didn't understand the cause and effect, and the four walked to the main room together.

Li Tianfan originally intended to establish the relationship between the Wagang Army and the Song Clan in front of all forces, but unexpectedly he was rounded up by the other party when he impliedly provoked him, which made him a nail that was neither soft nor hard. Fan was upset, and just about to say more, Wang Shichong's majestic voice sounded slowly: "The two little brothers Kou and Xu are now the guests of my Zheng Guogong's mansion. No matter what kind of festival Pu Shangong had with them, since they are in my Luoyang city, Mr. Li, it is better not to be presumptuous."

Having said so much, Li Tianfan could only snort coldly, flicked his sleeves and went back to the wing.Song Shidao and Wang Shichong sat down as the guests of honor. The young master naturally wanted to express his gratitude to the few people who helped Song Yuzhi out of the siege, but Wang Shichong was not easy to be fooled. , a wine bag and rice bag like Li Tianfan must not be worthy of it?"

Song Shidao avoided answering, and asked instead: "Who does Uncle Shi think Cihang Jingzhai will give He's Bi to?"

Wang Shichong's complexion changed immediately, and after a while, he forced a smile and said, "Anyway, your uncle and I have no chance, but my nephew can give it a try." In fact, in his heart, he thought Li Mi was the most likely, and Li Tianfan just said The provocation and Song Shidao's Gu Youyou at this time made Wang Shichong more convinced of this guess.

Because of this, Wang Shichong hated Cihang Jingzhai even more - if Li Mi was really allowed to get the Heshibi, the Wagang Army would definitely be the first to use Luoyang for surgery. Is he, Wang Shichong, going to sit and wait for death?

Song Shidao was happy to let Wang Shichong have this misunderstanding. After all, Luoyang was still under Wang Shichong's control, and Cihang Jingzhai had offended the host.

At this moment, an unfathomable voice suddenly came into the main room: "I am in Qinchuan, I would like to ask Young Master Song a few questions, please answer them truthfully."

Hearing this sound, Wang Shichong's face suddenly changed. Song Shidao understood at a glance: Qin Chuan must have approached Wang Shichong before, and Wang Shichong must have been refuted by the other party's "high theory". Opportunity" has to be given to He's Bi.

What's more interesting is that when Qin Chuan came to ask Song Shidao a question, he chose the moment when Wang Shichong was sitting next to him. Does he really dare to take over He's Bi?In front of Wang Shichong, the lord of Luoyang, if Song Shidao got the Heshibi, he would not even think about getting out of Luoyang City alive.

As soon as he appeared on the stage, he was preemptive and almost broke the groundwork Song Shidao had done before. He really deserved to be Cihang Jingzhai who "does nothing to achieve his goal".

Facing Wang Shichong's gaze with deep meaning, Song Shidao immediately poured out his inner strength, and said with a cheerful smile: "I am also a dignified young master of the Song Clan, if I have to answer anyone's questions truthfully, my father will kill me for being shameless." Son? If Your Excellency Qin Chuan is Cihang Jingzhai's concubine Fairy Xuan, please show up in a dignified manner. Today, when heroes from all walks of life are gathered, the fairy asks questions, and the teacher's answer dare not be untrue. If your Excellency has nothing to do with Cihang Jingzhai, then don't pretend to be a ghost here, how can heroes from all walks of life be so easily played and applauded by an unknown person?!"
