Chapter 40: Various dignitaries

By the way, Yan Zhen talked more and more energetically in class. After drinking three large bowls of strong liquor, he sat cross-legged on a table in the center with a red face, lazily leaning on his subordinate's shoulders, holding a wine bottle in one hand, and holding a bottle in the other hand.

Pointing to the west, he said: "Look in that direction. There is a conjoined peak close to the Chu Kingdom. There is a mountain gap between the two peaks. The mountain gap is ten feet wide. It was the place where I fought with Yuan Yan for seven days and seven nights.

At that time, Your Majesty gave me the Qingming Sword and Xuan Armor, do you know what the benefits of these two treasures are?"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone began to speculate, but they could never guess the result.

Su Yan put away the folding fan, supported his chin with one hand, and tapped his forehead with the fan in the other hand, "I heard that the Qingming Sword was the weapon used by His Majesty in the battle against Ruoshui forty years ago, and it ranks first in the list of weapons!"

When everyone heard the sound, they turned around and were stunned when they saw it was Su Yan. They also saw Xi Lou and Zuo Qing on her left and right, and there was a sudden silence in the crowd.

Yan Zhen picked up his belt and stood up: "Sister Su is really visionary. This sword really has this origin."

Su Yan added: "There is also this mysterious armor, which was used by the late emperor to protect his life. It is said that there is no other weapon that can harm him except the Qingming Sword. The general can get these two pieces. It seems that he is deeply favored by his majesty. Looking at the whole

Rong Guo, no one can compare with you."

Yan Zhen ran his fingers leisurely along his hair, his face showing with pride.

"However, Yuan Yan is the top general of Linguo. He has weird tactics and is very difficult to deal with. Your Majesty is giving you these two treasures at this time, perhaps because he is afraid that his opponent will be too powerful."

"Fart!" Yan Zhen sat down cross-legged, took a sip of wine, and said to her: "Back then, I led an army of 150,000 people to fight with the enemy for seven days and seven nights. It was the cold winter, and the soldiers were only wearing thin clothes.

Wearing clothes was already difficult, and we were hit by wind and snow, and food and fodder were scarce. If things continued like this, the morale of the army would be unstable. Therefore, it was not advisable to delay, and we had to make a quick decision! I came up with a plan, and asked the army to withdraw the flags and throw them away.

Supplies, we retreated to the three-mile mountain pass overnight and set up an ambush on the way here. Humph! Yuan Yan really couldn’t wait to pursue me. Falling into my trap is indeed karma! Although Yuan Yan is powerful, it’s a pity that he is stubborn. I’ll use some of it.

He loses because of his brain, do you think His Majesty will be worried that I can't beat him?"

This was the first time Su Yan heard him say these words, and she felt very distressed. If she had still stayed in the palace, she would never have agreed to him going to the military camp, let alone going to the front line to fight.

Fortunately, he is back.

Su Yan held back his tears and grinned at him: "You are so brave and mighty. Aren't you afraid of death? Why else would you be doing some idle official work in the academy?"

Everyone shouted, "God, you dare to say these lofty words in front of the general, you are really risking your life." Then Yan Zhen just giggled and threw the wine bottle in his hand: "I'm old, it's time to take care of myself!

"

I saw several people at that seat raise their eyes in unison, showing a mixture of surprise and embarrassment.

In just half a stick of incense, this mammoth lecture finally ended with the diners’ noise and Imam taking a nap, and everyone reluctantly dispersed.

Yan Zhen packed up the gifts on the table and caught up with Su Yan and his group who were about to leave. He threw them to Amin and said, "You can keep them for your master, either to replenish your health or to reward the servants."

When Ah Yu saw Yan Zhen's beauty, she was stunned for a moment. When Jin Guan saw this, he immediately pulled her aside and smiled at Yan Zhen.

Su Yan didn't take it seriously. He didn't even look at these things and went outside Duanyunxuan: "I gave you a gift because your book is so good. Look at those teahouse storytellers, how have they ever received such heavy gifts?"

?If you don’t cherish them, forget them, and you’ll give them away to others. Do you want to make the majority of storytellers angry to death?”

Yan Zhen followed him and said with a playful smile: "There is something in what you said! Who said I was telling lies? What I said is absolutely true. I think you didn't even know where you were when I was the general in charge of the troops.

!”

Su Yan cupped his hands and said: "General, I don't know you yet? Although you are invincible, how can you be so exaggerated? What about seven days and seven nights, do you think the demon-killing war is performed in the book? Be good, listen to my sister,

If you want to promote yourself in the future, you should make it more realistic. If you are exposed, it won't be too embarrassing, right? But sister, I am too lazy to listen to your old rotten things. Also, if you have nothing to do, go ahead

Play somewhere else, I have other things to do, so don’t follow me all the time, okay?”

"Then why did you come to see me? You didn't just want to see my beauty!"

Su Yan rolled his eyes to the sky, thinking that if it wasn't for the brocade husband, how would he have the free time to join in the fun? If he had this free time, he might as well go to the streets to visit brothels, go to gambling houses to squander money, or at the worst, just stay in the yard and plant flowers and weed.

. As the saying goes, every year comes and goes, once you waste time on things you don’t like very much, you will not be able to do it again tomorrow. This day is wasted! This is really unfair to your own youth.

Yan Zhen looked at her angrily, but didn't dare to talk back. He accidentally discovered that Xi Lou had been following on the other side, and happened to be walking side by side with Su Yan. Seeing his happy face, the anger in his heart suddenly surged. He penetrated him.

He stopped between them with a foot, looked at him sideways, and snorted from his nose: "Some people have too much free time these days, so they shouldn't pester Sister Su."

Xilou hurriedly looked to the west and said as if no one was watching: "Well, the sun is going down soon, and I suddenly remembered that I still haven't confiscated my clothes." Just as he was about to leave quickly, Yan Zhen stretched himself out and punched Xilou.

On his arm, he pretended to be surprised, but couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Xilou touched his aching arm and suppressed the fire.

Yansheng followed behind and smiled secretly when he saw this scene.

Su Yan was very angry about this. Just when he was about to reprimand Yan Zhen, he caught sight of Jin Guan and Ah Yu from the corner of his eye and gave up the plan. He sighed and had no choice but to close it.

Just when everyone knew that silence is golden, some people didn't understand the trick. Jinguo noticed that everyone was silent and finally had the opportunity to talk to Yanzhen. He almost shouted, "Who is the general referring to? Who is this?"

Who are you pestering?"

Ah Yu's eyes widened and he was trembling with fear.

Su Yan coughed twice and signaled her to shut up. Knowing that he had exposed his words, Jin Guan hurriedly moved a few steps behind Yan Zhen and asked in a low voice, "I have always been curious about Mr. Su, the boss and the boss.

What is going on in this time? I just observed it for a while, and I understand some things and some things I don’t understand. It’s still not clear at all. It seems that the general knows something, so I would like to ask the general to clarify his doubts.”

As Yan Zhen walked, he said to her, "How do I know! I'm not a commander, so they have nothing to do with me?" He stopped suddenly and turned back to look at her meaningfully, "I found that you and I have the same chemistry, huh?"

…Heroes think alike.”

Su Yan forcibly suppressed the rage in his heart and gave them a semi-warning: "Can you not be so blatant when whispering? If you really want to dig up some secrets, you can ask me. Don't you think my life in this academy is better than his?"

Chief, what can he know? It's just hearsay and adding fuel to the fire." When he said this, Xilou's face suddenly twitched.

Yanzhen hesitated, "Everything I said is true. If you don't believe me, ask him if he abandoned his childhood sweetheart in front of him and poached others in the back!"

Jin Guan also echoed: "What kind of person is General Yan? He tells the truth, how can he tell lies!"

"Digging...poaching?" Amin stammered and interjected.

Su Yan was at a loss when he saw this scene, "How can you be so ignorant! Xilou and I are inseparable, just like me and the boss, just like you and Changsun Yue! Where did you find poaching? Yes

Isn’t it that Mr. I’ve made your skin itchy when I didn’t punish you recently?!”

Jin Guan repeatedly begged for mercy, rubbed oil on the soles of his feet, and disappeared in an instant. The remaining people realized that something was wrong and ran away quickly.

Su Yan waited until they all left before carefully asking Xilou: "They are young and ignorant, don't take it to heart."

Xilou Yun raised the corner of his mouth lightly, "The trees want to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop. Just don't misunderstand me."

Misunderstanding? Su Yan felt strange that Xilou would not treat him...

She hurriedly patted her face, pretended not to understand, and smiled naively at him. Xilou helplessly looked at her confused face and shook his head.

Su Yan sent Jinguan back to Yewuyuan, and then walked back to Lanshanyuan under the setting sun. Along the way, Imam was talking about what happened in Duanyunxuan, and he was all talking about Yan Zhen, looking like a nymphomaniac.

Su Yan shook his head and sighed, "I've seen people change their faces quickly, but I've never seen them change their faces so quickly. Sure enough, a woman's heart is like a hair on the bottom of the sea, and Amin's heart is like a hair on the bottom of the sea. You can't guess or find it. It's really amazing!"

Amo grinned stupidly.

As soon as I stepped onto the zigzag water bridge, I saw from a distance a pavilion in a blue skirt standing in a water pavilion that turned right in the distance.

Su Yan's heart sank and he asked Ah Yu: "You have been in the academy for so many years, have you ever heard about what happened to Fo Zhen before?"

After Ah Yu looked at the water pavilion, even his voice was a little depressed, "Sir, maybe you don't know that ten years ago, the palace was still a prosperous and happy family. At that time, Ah Yu was only three or four years old, although he didn't remember the past.

, but I heard from my mother-in-law that the prince loved the eldest and second young ladies very much, and was very strict with the general. Then something happened, the eldest young lady ran away from home, and the second young lady also moved to the academy. From then on, the two darlings in his eyes were separated.

She has never been back to the palace, and even the general rarely sets foot in the house after joining the army. I heard from the seniors in the academy that although the second lady’s personality was reserved before, she was not as cold and unhuman as she is now. Mostly because of that.

She is a full-blooded sister. From then on, no one mentioned that eldest lady in front of her, not even General Yan." He sighed and continued, "Nine years have passed, and Mr. Ge still hasn't let go.

The general seems to be nonchalant, but in the dead of night, who knows if he can let go. Mr. Su, you have never seen it. There are only the prince and his two ladies in the palace now. In such a big palace, there is no heir. "

Su Yan asked, "Where is Ge Yiyan?"

"Master Ge is in charge of the palace guards. He spends more than half of the year in the palace, and the rest of the time is either in Mo Mansion or Goulan."

"Fo Zhen really never went back even once?"

"I have gone back a few times, but only a handful of times." At this point, she suddenly sighed: "The eldest lady of the singer family is so cruel. She left her own sister and ran away without caring about her family." Finally, she concluded, "It seems that not only is she in trouble,

A son is of no use, and even having a daughter is of no use. If he is born well, he is a filial son, but if he is born badly, he is a harm to others. It is so inhumane! Mr. Su, do you think this slave is right?"

Su Yan's footsteps stopped, and the lake water lapped at the edge of the water bridge, soaking her shoes and socks. She pressed her temples, the wind ruffled her hair, and her thin white hands tucked her hair behind her ears, "Do you know who

What's the secret of the eldest lady? Do you know what the prince has done to hurt his daughter?"

Amo shook his head.

Su Yan turned to look at her, with a cold expression on his face, "Ah Yu, you know a lot of things in the world, and others are just spectators. True and false, right and wrong, black and white, unless you have enough evidence, you can't

This matter was decided hastily.”

A'ma was a little surprised. She had never expected that Mr. Su would speak for an unknown person, but her words made sense. At this moment, it was a blow to the head, and she was instantly ashamed.

Su Yan calmed down and said: "Since we have talked about this today, I will simply give you a few more words. Based on my experience in Qishan Academy these days, this place is definitely not simple! Today you tell me this

If others eavesdrop on such a disrespectful comment, it will do you no good at all, and may even cause disaster! But in this academy, the death of a maid will not cause an uproar. You will die in a wrong place and without any cause.

If you want to know more about it, live smarter, shut up if you say something you shouldn't say, don't be curious about some things you shouldn't pay attention to, and don't discuss it with others, otherwise the consequences will be unbearable for you, because..." She paused.

, swallowed back the last sentence "You are a maid".

Ah Yu was shocked by the lesson, and finally nodded vigorously. Su Yan didn't know if she understood. This girl was simple-minded and spoke without thinking, but her heart to protect the Lord was absolutely true.

Most of her anger was extinguished, and when she looked at her pitiful appearance, the rest disappeared with a hiss, leaving only a feeling of guilt.

"Remember my words, you are one of the few acquaintances I have in this academy. If you treat me well, I will protect you in every possible way. Although the words I say are unpleasant, they are all for your own good. The days are long and you will understand.

"

Imam nodded again, not daring to say anything.

"Let's take a detour."

This detour is worthwhile. If you want to take a detour to the side entrance of Lanshan Courtyard, you have to cross the bamboo forest of Qingpingtang and walk for a while before you see the high wall of Lanshan Courtyard. Outside the high wall

It is a green forest. But under this high wall, there is a pair of people, one male and one female, one yellow and one white. The male is handsome and the female is beautiful, standing under the tree, with the hanging branches blocking more than half of their faces.

I don’t know whether it’s the scenery that complements the people, or the people that complement the scenery.

I could only vaguely hear the weak voice of the woman saying: "Your Highness is not going to see Mr. Su, why are you here?"

The man chuckled in a low voice, with confidence and arrogance. He said, "I've heard for a long time that you have a beauty that will captivate the whole country. I saw it today. The rumors are indeed true! It's just that you are here in this academy. It's a pity. I don't know.

Are you willing to join me in the East Palace and serve as the chief minister of January Heaven?"

When the word "East Palace" came out, Ah Yu covered her mouth and exclaimed, and quickly dragged Su Yan to a hiding place and squatted down. His face turned pale with fright and he broke out in cold sweat. Su Yan remained calm because of Su Ming's death a long time ago.

She told her that Yiyue Tiannai was the band of the East Palace. In addition to entertaining the prince, they would also entertain themselves at large banquets held in the palace. These musicians and harpists were all selected from a million, and naturally they had extraordinary looks and extraordinary intelligence.

, it is common for someone to be favored by several dignitaries and marry him back home as a second or third wife.

Therefore, there is always a shortage of people in January, so it is not surprising that the prince is seeking talents like this today.

The woman was stunned for a moment, then bowed and said: "Your Highness's love is so great that I really feel unworthy of it."

Su Yan sighed, this is a tactful tactic! I don't know who this girl is, but she can be attracted by the prince, but the person who can be attracted by the future emperor must be both civil and military, and has extraordinary abilities.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still smiled: "Miss Jin is talented in both civil and military arts. Not only is she a good dancer, but she has also been a guest in the Prime Minister's House of Chu State. She is really a rare woman... Do you think that joining my East Palace is a sign of humiliation?"

Jinyun City!

This time it was Su Yan's turn to be surprised. After being surprised, he just lamented that the prince was so sentimental. Before, he had only thought about getting to know the brave and resourceful Mr. Su. What a classy thing to do, but in the second half of the meeting he saw the stunning beauty.

Changed the hexagram.

Things like fate and fate are really subtle.

Jin Yuncheng bowed his head and said, "How could Yuncheng not know about the great reputation of Yi Yuetian? Not long ago, Yi Yuetian produced several famous musicians and was the teacher of the late emperor. He just felt that his conditions were not as good as those of Yi Yuetian's seniors."

, I just don’t dare to go to the class to get an axe.”

The prince took off the jade pendant from his belt and forced it into her hand, and said to her: "You must not make a hasty decision. Many things will be different after you think twice. Just go back and think about it carefully. There will always be a place for you in the East Palace."

." After that, he smiled meaningfully at her and turned to leave. Before taking a few steps, Yun Cheng, who had lowered his head to examine the jade pendant, asked softly: ""Does His Highness's promise today count?"

The prince's footsteps paused momentarily.

"It is an honor for Yuncheng to be appreciated by His Highness today. However, there are many rules in the palace. I am afraid that if I am not careful, I will violate these rules. If Yuncheng makes a mistake in the future, Your Highness will not be able to forgive me." Yun Cheng said.

Cheng's voice was surprisingly calm, as if he was not happy about this pie falling from the sky.

He turned back with a sincere look: "I am destined to be with you. In the future, the girl can enter the East Palace at any time. As for the mistake... the girl is so smart, how could she make a mistake? Even if she made a mistake, I will put my words here today to absolve you of all guilt.

,how?"

Su Yan shook his head. It was a lie that the prince wanted to attract talents, but it was true that he liked others! In this world, the routines are too deep. If you are not careful, you will be caught. Suddenly I remembered that I heard a storyteller in a tea house in Kuai Feng Town say that if a man is

If you like someone, you will definitely think of all possible ways and tricks. If you are ruthless, it will be a cruel trick. No matter how hard it is, you will use money to seduce and seduce yourself. You will package yourself in a glittering way. If you are supreme, the woman will fall for him and will never be able to do it again.

Clean it up! Now we have seen a real drama. The prince used the January Heaven Commander to seduce him. No one can withstand this trick!

Well, the prince is indeed a man who has experienced it all, and he is indeed very aware.

It's just...Yuncheng doesn't look like someone who would be lured by money. Besides, he is known to be aloof and aloof. Why did he say this again?

She was so lost in thought that she didn't come back to her senses until a tree branch was thrown in her face. She saw that the prince had disappeared. She was about to continue squatting and wait for Jinyun City to leave, but unexpectedly her body swayed and she felt a little uncomfortable.

After holding on, his knees softened and he sat down. Jinyuncheng's brows twitched and his alert eyes searched the woods. Su Yan secretly regretted it and had no choice but to show up.
