Chapter 10 Hazy
Although we lived in the villa of "Yixiang Pavilion", when I arrived at the "Tian" building of Yixiang Pavilion, I found that the business of "Yixiang Pavilion" was very popular, and the three buildings were full of people. A brief look was that there was no empty seat in the Tianxiang Pavilion. After seeing me coming, I immediately came out. I looked respectfully, and I was a familiar face. I was the shopkeeper I had left for two years.
Looking at the spacious first-floor lobby, I smiled and said, "Is Yixiang Pavilion's business always so good?"
The shopkeeper nodded first, then shook his head. Seeing that I was a little confused, I explained: "Yixiang Pavilion is now the most luxurious leisure place in Chang'an City, especially the Tianzi Building. It takes three days in advance to book the tables. But there will be no more people like tonight."
"Oh?" I turned my face slightly and wondered in surprise. I continued to ask, "Why is this?"
The shopkeeper replied with a smile: "Actually, these people are here to see the young master, the god of martial arts, and the charm of the prince. The prince's greetings tonight has already made a big fuss in the city. These people are all here to rush to see the young master."
I shook my head helplessly and thought to myself that Li Jiancheng was indeed a good method. This would not only create a false appearance with a good relationship with me, but also strengthen the momentum of the Prince's Mansion, but also use this to put pressure on the Tiance Mansion.
When I entered the hall with the shopkeeper, the originally noisy hall was immediately silent. Everyone looked at us in unison. At this moment, two burly and capable men who had been waiting at the entrance of the stairs came over. They looked a little arrogant and looked a little confused and asked me tentatively: "You are Mr. Long?"
I nodded and smiled, "No, right. It's down." As soon as I finished speaking, the sky exploded in the hall, and everyone's face showed a somewhat blind admiration.
After getting my affirmative answer, the two men's expressions immediately turned 180 degrees, and said respectfully with a smile: "Young Master Long, the prince has been waiting for you in the private room upstairs for a long time. Please come with the younger one."
At every turning point in the stairs, there are two warriors with good kung abilities. When I see me coming up, I have a surprisingly respectful expression. No matter how tremendous they are, they are warriors after all. The admiration for the strong is unquestionable. As soon as I stepped onto the fifth floor, I heard the two men leading the way say loudly: "Martial God, Young Master Long is here!"
As soon as they finished speaking, the door of the elegant room opened wide, and a man with a long and thin figure appeared first. His facial features were striking and straight, with long eyebrows like a sword. His eyes were slightly thrust and twitching. It looked like he had been showing his smile, exuding a smile and domineering aura. Following him was a man with a very serious and burly figure. His angular muscles all over his body exuded unquestionable footsteps.
Domineering. The sharp light in his eyes was like an eagle soaring in the sky. He looked down on the thousands of lives on the earth. He also whistled behind this man. A middle-aged man dressed in a slightly elegant manner. Although the man standing beside him was a long gown and holding an exquisite painting fan. However, there was no elegant aura between his eyebrows. Instead, he looked like a wild horse with a scattered edge, with an explosive power all over his body.
The man walking in front laughed and said, "Young Master Long is even more extraordinary than the rumors. Haha, no wonder the third lady of the Song family and the shopping mall owner of the Pegasus Ranch are all attracted by the young master. Although she is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, she still doesn't even have a confidante. She is surrounded by some rouge powder, which is far different from Young Master Long."
As expected, the man in front of me was Prince Li Jiancheng. The man behind him was probably the burly man behind him was Prince Li Yuanji. However, Li Jiancheng was not the source of emperors. He talked about the topic of women as soon as he met, and he really didn't know how to answer him. I could only smile faintly and said, "Everyone's blessing is destined. The prince naturally has the blessing of the prince, which is something that we ordinary people cannot enjoy. Why should the prince worry?"
Li Jiancheng narrowed his eyes, looked at me quickly, and then laughed again, "No, good. Mr. Long is indeed very proud. Come on, let me recommend it to the young master." After saying that, he pointed to the man who was following him with a smile and said, "This is my fourth brother, Li Yuanji, the King of Qi."
I nodded to King Li Yuanji of Qi. Then I heard Li Jiancheng point to the middle-aged and elegant man beside him and say, "This is Qiao Mo, the chief adviser who is here." After that, he pointed to the man in a long gown beside Qiao Mo and said, "This is Jing Wuming, the leader of Jingzhaolian."
Oh, this person is Jing Wuming, known as the No. 1 sword in Guanzhong. When he talked with Song Que about becoming a famous master in the world in Songjiashan City, Song Que praised him very much, saying that his sword skills are versatile and elegant, and are capable of being elegant. Those who can be praised by Song Que must have outstanding features.
After saying hello to the two, he walked into the room side by side with Li Jiancheng. Li Jiancheng sat in the middle. I was seated on the right side, Li Yuanji on the left, and Jing Wuming next to me. The five of them sat around a well-crafted sandalwood table.
Li Jiancheng clapped his hands, and heard a sound next to the private room and opened an arched side door. More than a dozen beautiful and plump women came out one after another. These women were obviously selected from thousands of people. After special training, although each person was light makeup, they set off their thousands of styles and showed off their styles more thoroughly. They were proficient in various instruments and singing and dancing.
Quietly admiring the moving songs and dances in front of you, it is a kind of temptation that can arouse the deep desires of every man, but it makes you unable to bear to do any deviant behavior. Yu Guang looked at the faces of the people around him. Only Li Jiancheng half-squinted his eyes at this time, with an obsessive smile on his face. His fingers cater to the rhythm of the singing. He beat the table with a rhythmic and gentle rhythmically. His expression was already intoxicated. Li Yuanji was still the face when he first saw him. His eyes were sharp. Obviously, the beauty in front of him could not arouse his slight interest. As for Qiao Mo and Jing Wuming, they could not guess what they thought at this moment.
At this time, Li Jiancheng suddenly turned his face and looked at me with a smile and said, "I didn't expect that Mr. Long not only has great martial arts skills, but also has outstanding talents in business. This Yixiang Pavilion is now the most famous entertainment place in the Tang Dynasty. When my father learned that Mr. Long was the one who was the master of Yixiang Pavilion, he specifically ordered the officials in the capital to exempt him from the Yixiang Pavilion and pay taxes for one year. At the same time, he gave him many aspects of his business.
There are many preferential treatments.”
Li Jiancheng said this, except for Jing Wuming's face that there was a very brief surprise. Li Yuanji and Qiao Mo were both calm as usual. Obviously, they had already known about this.
Haha. Li Jiancheng is indeed capable. He is not as mediocre as rumored by the outside world. There will be no such many people among the civil and military officials of the Tang Dynasty who are not blamed for him. In front of me, he revealed that the reason why Yixiang Pavilion has achieved its achievements today was achieved completely under their support. Although this cannot bring us closer together, it can at least increase my favorability for the Prince's Mansion. At the same time, if you say such a thing in front of Jing Wuming, you can also show your heartfeltness to him on the surface and win two goals in one fell swoop. It seems that Li Jiancheng is trying his best to win over the major forces around Chang'an City.
I smiled and said, "When I first established this Yixiang Pavilion, it was just a joke. Thanks to the prince, I admire him. I didn't expect that Yixiang Pavilion could develop to its current scale. It's really shameful to say that. I'm afraid that the guys here wouldn't recognize me as a big boss."
Li Jiancheng laughed, a trace of splendor flashed in his eyes, and he said kindly: "It seems that even God is helping me, oh by the way, it seems that my son is only in his early twenties. Next year, I have already called him "Young Master" and call me "Young Master Long". You won't mind it?"
I shook my head and said, "Of course not. This is also an honor to be down.
Li Jiancheng smiled satisfied and continued, "It seems that luck is still very important in a person's life. For example, the young marshal who is now a powerful man. If it weren't for the support of Mr. Long, he would probably still be a gangster in Yangzhou City." He paused at this point. The expression on his face changed, although he still had a smile on his face. He looked at me with a sharp look and asked, "In my brother's opinion, I don't know what I think of my fortune in the Tang Dynasty?"
I was confused by Li Jiancheng's question for a moment and couldn't guess what he meant. I had to laugh and said, "How can Long guess his destiny be so good? But Long has always believed that it is yours and you will never get it if it is not yours. There are so many things in the world that are nothing but "
Li Jiancheng was obviously not satisfied with my answer. Li Yuanji's eyes looked at me were even sharper. Qiao Mo was still smiling, and a feather fan squirted slowly and rhythmically. His expression seemed to be not paying attention to the conversation between me and Li Jiancheng. He seemed to be thinking about something.
"Haha, I heard from Mr. Long that Jing suddenly enlightened and benefited from the benefits of the sacred people." Jing Wuming stood up and bowed to me seriously.
Li Jiancheng laughed and said, "I don't think so. People conquer nature. As long as they are determined by themselves, they will do their best to fight for it. In the end, even if they are crushed to pieces, they will not hesitate to do their best." Li Jiancheng clenched his fists tightly, and a firm light flashed in his eyes.
At this time, Qiao Mo's voice suddenly sounded among us, "Haha, look, we are really. The prince is busy with business affairs all day long. It is rare to take advantage of the opportunity to welcome Mr. Long to relax, why did he talk about these things again? Today I only talk about the wind and the moon, not the state affairs."
It seems that Qiao Mo has an important position in Li Jiancheng's heart. After he said this, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji's faces were relieved at the same time. Li Jiancheng laughed and said, "Mr. Qiao is right. Come on, let me borrow flowers to offer Buddha today. I hope my brother doesn't mind."
The atmosphere on the dining table after that was very pleasant. About an hour later, I said goodbye to Li Jiancheng and others and returned to the villa.
"Mr. Qiao, can you see if this person be used by me?" After Jing Wuming and I left, Li Jiancheng asked Qiao Mo with a serious expression on his face.
Qiao Mo stopped the feather fan in his hand and asked with a smile: "Are the prince talking about Long Tianxiao or Jing Wuming?"
Li Jiancheng frowned, looked at Li Yuanji who was resting with his eyes closed, and asked, "Fourth brother, how good do you think Long Tianxiao's skills are? I don't believe in the 100,000 soldiers of Zhu Can with one force."
Li Yuanji suddenly opened his eyes. A flash of light flashed away, and he said in a deep voice: "Although I don't believe in this matter, I can't see the slightest depth of this person's skill. But what is certain is that even if I have improved my skills, I can't stand ten moves under his hands!"
"How is that possible?" Li Jiancheng looked at his fourth brother in shock. He could not invite Chu Chu again for Li Yuanji's ability. Li Yuanji had already become famous in the entire pass a year ago. He was no different from Wei Yongfeng, the most powerful general of the Tang army. After this year's hard work, he ate the magic medicine he collected from all over the world every day, and his skills improved by leaps and bounds. However, it was indeed a bit shocking that he could not survive ten moves under Long Tianxiao. However, he also invited Chu Chu's character, the fourth brother. He always said everything about him. He would never have any entrustedness or concealment.
Li Jiancheng smiled bitterly. After thinking about it, he said to Qiao Mo: "Long Tianxiao's relationship with Kou Zhong is extremely close. And Kou Zhong's smallness is entirely due to his support today. Humph. If there was no Long Tianxiao, Kou Zhong is still just a gangster." At this point, Li Jiancheng paused for a moment, and his expression was quite disdainful. In fact, he has always looked down on the leaders of other separatist forces. Because these people are either humble or have been scattered in the underworld, people like him who were born with golden leaves in their arms naturally disdained these people. "Long Tianxiao is not only extremely skilled and extremely intelligent. Such people cannot be used by me unless they are willing and sincerely helping each other. They may even cause a catastrophe. Therefore, I have never thought about subdue this person, and I just hope not to become enemies with this person. Now is an extraordinary period, and we must not miss our plan!"
