Chen Yang's dishes came quickly. He ordered a pot of wine and ate a chopstick of fish with the wine. The fish was Huangcheng vinegar fish, braised in braised sauce, with a rich soup and chopped green onion sprinkled on top.
In the mouth, it is soft and tender, leaving a fragrant taste.
Coupled with that sip of millet wine, it is truly delicious!
Chen Yang was just tasting wine and eating meat, and Mr. Wu's storytelling was coming to an end. Next, it was time to give out rewards. A little girl brought a tray to collect the money. When Chen Yang received it,
The little girl shouted sweetly: "Big brother!"
Chen Yang smiled slightly. He was not a stingy man. He took out ten taels of gold and threw it directly on the tray.
At this point, the little girl was immediately dumbfounded. She had never received such a large reward!
"Thank you, brother." It took the little girl a long time to react. The people around her were also a little shocked. Everyone rewarded them with a few pennies and some broken silver. It was like five yuan or ten yuan in RMB. Chen Yang
This move is worth six thousand yuan!
Rich man!
All the guests looked at Chen Yang with admiration and whispered among themselves. Chen Yang was too lazy to care.
However, Mr. Wu was a sensible person. He immediately pulled his granddaughter to Chen Yang, bowed deeply and said, "I would like to thank you for the reward."
Chen Yang was not arrogant either. He stood up and said, "Old sir, you don't have to be so generous. It's just a small effort."
Mr. Wu said: "Young Master is so generous, I am very grateful!"
Chen Yang suddenly became interested and said, "Old sir, if you are fine, can you sit down and have a drink with me?"
Mr. Wu was startled for a moment, then smiled and said: "Okay, okay, of course it is good."
After the storytelling here was over, everyone who needed to leave also left. The rest went to have their own fun.
Mr. Wu pulled his granddaughter to sit down, and Chen Yang shouted: "Xiaoer, come here."
The waiter from the shop came over immediately and asked, "Come on, waiter, please give me your orders."
Chen Yang smiled and asked the little girl, "Little sister, just order whatever you like to eat, and big brother will treat you to it."
The little girl looked timidly at Mr. Wu. Then Mr. Wu said, "Young Master generously rewards me, so how about I come as a host today?"
Chen Yang smiled and said: "It's okay, as long as the old gentleman is happy."
Mr. Wu laughed and said: "Young master is extraordinary, he must be no ordinary person." He then said to the waiter: "Have a piece of roast goose, my little granddaughter will be greedy for it."
"Okay!" the waiter responded.
Mr. Wu then ordered two more dishes. After that, Chen Yang poured wine for him.
Mr. Wu toasted with Chen Yang. After the two drank a glass of wine, Chen Yang picked up some food for the little girl and asked casually: "Little sister, what is your name?"
The little girl said: "Brother, my name is Wu Xiaohua."
Mr. Wu said: "Xiao Hua originally wandered to the imperial city. Anyway, I am a lonely old man, so I kept her as my companion, and I adopted her as my granddaughter."
Chen Yang smiled slightly and said, "That's it."
Mr. Wu said: "You haven't asked the young master for his name yet?"
Chen Yang said: "Old sir, my surname is Chen, and my last name is Yang."
"Oh, it turns out to be Mr. Chen. From the accent of Mr. Chen, it seems that he is not from the Imperial City." Mr. Wu said.
Chen Yang told the truth and said: "I just arrived in the imperial city today."
Mr. Wu said: "Master Chen came to the imperial city to play or...?"
Chen Yang said: "In order to become an official."
Mr. Wu was slightly startled and said, "Young Master wants to become an official?"
Chen Yang said: "That's right."
Mr. Wu took a sip of rice wine but said nothing.
Chen Yang said: "Old sir, isn't it appropriate to become an official?"
Mr. Wu said: "That's not true. However, there are 30 million people in this imperial city. And the entire Dakang State has a population of 300 million. Every day, more than a million students squeeze their heads trying to live in this imperial city.
However, most of them came back disappointed. The imperial city is very prosperous, but behind the prosperity, there is more cruelty."
Chen Yang fell silent.
Mr. Wu said: "But Mr. Chen, you are very human, so you will definitely be different."
Chen Yang said: "To be honest, old sir, I am a Taoist. I also have some magical skills. Before, I got acquainted with the sixth son of Wu Hou, Lan Jian. I came here today with Lan Jian.
The young master has an agreement, so he came to seek refuge."
Mr. Wu immediately raised his glass and said happily: "It turns out that Mr. Chen has already made a plan, and the old man's worries are unnecessary. Now that Mr. Lan is a powerful figure in the dynasty, Mr. Chen and Mr. Lan know each other and want to join the officialdom.
It’s much simpler.”
Chen Yang said: "Old sir, we are just chatting. I also want to know more about Wuhou. Can you tell me a little bit."
Mr. Wu said: "Mr. Chen, you are really making things difficult for me. I am just trying to make ends meet. In fact, a person like Mr. Lanhou is not something that a village man like me can come into contact with."
"
Chen Yang smiled slightly and said, "That's okay, let's drink."
Mr. Wu followed him to drink, and he said: "Some of the things I know are just hearsay, and I dare not tell you, Mr. Chen."
Chen Yang said: "That's nothing. Let's just treat it as a chat after dinner. We don't take it seriously."
Mr. Wu said: "Well, Mr. Chen, I will just talk about it casually."
Chen Yang knew that the old gentleman still had some talent. He smiled and said, "You tell me, I'll listen."
Mr. Wu then said: "Lanhou Ye is a very remarkable person. It is because of the right-hand man like Lanhou that the current emperor is in such a smooth situation."
Chen Yang said: "Master Lanhou is indeed powerful."
Mr. Wu smiled and said: "Moreover, Mr. Chen, the most powerful thing about Mr. Lanhou is not his martial arts, but his talent and learning. Do you know what it is?"
Chen Yang said: "I don't know."
Mr. Wu said: "The most powerful thing about Mr. Lanhou is his loyalty to the emperor. He can do anything for the sake of His Majesty. If anyone talks about His Majesty in private, he will definitely not forgive him."
Chen Yang was slightly surprised and said, "Old sir, what you said is quite interesting."
Mr. Wu smiled slightly.
Chen Yang knew that this was the old man trying to remind him. After all, he was going to seek refuge in Wuhou Mansion, so the old man was telling himself something about Wuhou Mansion.
Mr. Wu continued: "Lan Houye and the Holy Master have the same ambition. This is the most rare pair of monarchs and ministers. There is no suspicion between the two."
Chen Yang said: "You continue." Mr. Wu said: "But Lord Lan also has his own troubles."
"Oh, what trouble?" Chen Yang asked.
Mr. Wu said: "Lan Houye has a total of seven sons and one daughter. Among these children, one of them is a concubine. This son is his youngest son, and his name is Lan Tingyu."
"This doesn't seem to be a worry." Chen Yang said.
Mr. Wu smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Chen, listen to me."
Chen Yang said: "Okay."
Mr. Wu said: "Master Lanhou is a fair and selfless man, and his wife, Mrs. Lin, runs the family strictly. His sons and daughters are all young talents, filial and capable."
Chen Yang said: "Does the problem lie with Lan Tingyu?"
Mr. Wu said: "Lan Tingyu's life experience is very special."
"How special?" Chen Yang asked.
Mr. Wu said: "Lan Tingyu's mother was the saint of the Xingchen Palace. The Xingchen Palace back then was no worse than the Great Destruction Temple. Lord Lan and the Holy Master wanted to destroy the Xingchen Palace, but they didn't want to damage the temple.
So Lan Houye deliberately approached Lan Tingyu's mother Ye Luanfeng. Ye Luanfeng fell in love with Lan Houye and became Lan Houye's concubine. For Lan Houye, Ye Luanfeng taught the secrets of Xingchen Palace to everyone.
All the star techniques were handed over to Lord Lan. After that, the Star Palace was destroyed. Ye Luanfeng stayed in the Lord's Mansion and gave birth to Lan Tingyu for Lord Lan."
Chen Yang said: "What then?"
Mr. Wu said: "When Ye Luanfeng left the Palace of Stars, her skills were crippled. She is a great woman, but it is a pity that she fell in love with the wrong person."
Chen Yang's heart tightened.
Mr. Wu said: "Later, Ye Luanfeng fell seriously ill and died when Lan Tingyu was six years old. Some people say that Mrs. Lin killed Ye Luanfeng. But no one knows what happened specifically. Lan Ting
Since Yu is still young, she naturally cannot uphold justice for her mother. But what is even more outrageous is that Lanhou Ye has issued an order. That is, Lan Tingyu is not allowed to practice martial arts."
"Why not let Lan Tingyu practice martial arts?" Chen Yang was surprised.
For a moment, Chen Yang felt sad. He seemed to see his own shadow in Lan Tingyu's body.
Mr. Wu said: "I don't know why, but Lan Tingyu is not allowed to practice martial arts."
Chen Yang's eyes looked heavy.
"Lan Tingyu has suffered a lot of grievances over the years. He is not welcomed in the Marquis's Mansion, and his life is harder than that of the servants. Even the maids can bully him." Mr. Wu said.
Chen Yang said: "Don't Lord Lan know?"
Mr. Wu said: "I don't know whether Lord Lan knows this. But Lord Lan has never cared about it."
"Why is this?" Chen Yang asked.
Mr. Wu smiled and said, "Who knows what Lord Lan is thinking in his heart?"
Chen Yang sighed. But he immediately said: "But even so, this is not Lan Houye's trouble, is it?"
Mr. Wu said: "If Lan Tingyu continues to suffer like this, it will naturally not be Lan Houye's trouble. But the key issue is..."
"What is it?" Chen Yang was confused.
Mr. Wu said: "Lan Houye did not allow Lan Tingyu to practice martial arts, but for some reason, Lan Tingyu's cultivation level suddenly became very powerful. None of Lan Houye's sons is Lan Tingyu.
His opponent. Moreover, Lan Tingyu also took part in the scientific examination and got the first place. The Holy Master personally appointed Lan Tingyu as the Major General of Zhenyuan, with an official title of fourth rank."
