Chen Yang then raised his glass and said, "Let's do it!" After that, he drank it all in one gulp.
An Zixuan then raised his glass and said, "I also want to toast Brother Lin." Chen Yang also drank it all in one gulp.
An Zixuan then said: "Brother Lin, what's important to you recently? Or where do you want to go?"
Song Ning also looked at Chen Yang with interest.
Chen Yang sighed slightly and said: "I have been wandering around for more than ten years, and sometimes I want to find a place to settle down. For now, there is no place I particularly want to go. I plan to stay here for a while first.
.”
Song Ning said, "Then Mr. Lin hasn't found a place to stay yet, has he?" Chen Yang nodded, smiled again, and said, "I still have some money on hand, and I plan to go to Toujia Inn."
An Zixuan immediately said: "Brother Lin, no one lives here in Huayinju. If you don't mind, you can stay here with me temporarily. What do you think?"
Chen Yang suddenly felt a little embarrassed and said: "This is not good, it is too annoying to Mr. An."
An Zixuan said: "Brother Lin, if you regard me as a friend, don't say such disrespectful words."
Chen Yang said: "It would be Lin's honor if he could have a friend like Mr. An."
Song Ning then said: "That being the case, Mr. Lin, please don't refuse."
Chen Yang then said: "Then it's better for Lin to be respectful than obey your orders."
Song Ning and An Zixuan both smiled.
An Zixuan actually doesn't want to keep Chen Yang, but An Zixuan is a very smart person. He can naturally see that Song Ning appreciates Chen Yang's talent. If he pushes Chen Yang away, it will only make Song Ning feel bad.
grudge.
If Chen Yang goes to stay at an inn, it will be beyond An Zixuan's control. But if Chen Yang is placed in Huayin Juli, An Zixuan will know about it whenever Song Ning meets Chen Yang.
Furthermore, with An Zixuan's financial resources and means, he has a hundred ways to make Chen Yang disappear from this world. At that time, he only needs to tell Song Ning that Chen Yang has already left without saying goodbye.
This is An Zixuan’s wishful thinking!
As for Song Ning, her world is still a little simpler. She is not as dark as she thought, nor does she think as much.
After such discussion, Song Ning looked at the lotus in the pond.
The rain hitting the lotus flowers is very poetic in a different way.
Song Ning could not help but chant: "The lotus pavilion is full of lotus flowers, and the scenery is different from the four seasons. The lotus leaves in the pond are infinitely green, and the lotus flowers are particularly clear in the rain."
"What a poem!" An Zixuan immediately praised Song Ning.
Chen Yang couldn't help but feel funny in his heart. Although this poem was pretty good, it still didn't rhyme a bit! It seemed that Song Ning really loved poetry, but his talent and learning were still limited!
Chen Yang was embarrassed to laugh at Song Ning because he himself was a dabbler.
Song Ning's face turned red and she said, "I couldn't help myself for a moment, but I felt a little embarrassed in front of Mr. Lin."
Chen Yang smiled and said, "Miss Ning'er, your poem is very good."
Song Ning smiled with satisfaction and said to An Zixuan: "Zixuan, do you want to sing a song too?"
An Zixuan pondered for a moment, and then said: "Okay!"
Chen Yang was amused in his heart. Damn it, it's really hard to chase a girl like Song Ning! She has to compose poems at every turn. What does An Zixuan like about this girl?
Chen Yang felt that Song Ning seemed to have been living in a fairy tale. She really didn't know the cruelty of reality!
"A beautiful lady with a green cover stands by the water, her sandalwood powder is unevenly fragrant and wet with sweat. A gust of wind blows over the blue waves, and the pearls are scattered and difficult to clean up." An Zixuan chanted.
"Okay!" Song Ning's eyes lit up and she couldn't help but praise.
Chen Yang also cheered, An Zixuan really has some poetic talent!
"The whole poem does not contain the word "lotus", but the description of the lotus in the rain is so apt and true." Song Ning said happily: "Zixuan, I am not as good as you."
An Zixuan was immediately satisfied. In fact, this poem was not written by him, but by an expert when he was sitting here. He knew that Song Ning liked poetry, so he kept it in his heart and thought about it later.
Song Ning was very show off when she came one day. Today she really hit the mark.
An Zixuan was so proud that he subconsciously wanted to overwhelm Chen Yang and said: "Brother Lin, you are a master of poetry, why don't you also write a poem?"
Song Ning looked at Chen Yang expectantly.
Chen Yang secretly laughed in his heart, and then he began to ponder. Then, Chen Yang chanted: "The flowers drift by themselves, the water flows by itself, a kind of lovesickness, and two places of sorrow. There is no way to eliminate this feeling, so I frown, but it is in my heart
.”
"This doesn't seem to have anything to do with lotus?" An Zixuan said with a slight smile.
Chen Yang immediately shook his head and said sadly: "I'm sorry, I'm rude. For a moment, I couldn't help but think of my old friend."
Song Ning was moved by the beauty and sadness of Chen Yang's poem. She felt that this poem was so delicate.
"Master Lin, you are also a person who understands love!" Song Ning said softly.
An Zixuan couldn't help but feel angry, being robbed of the limelight by this bitch again.
However, although he was angry, he controlled all his emotions.
An hour later, Song Ning said, "It's time for me to go back."
An Zixuan then said: "Brother Lin is resting here. I have already said hello to the servants here." He paused and then said to Song Ning: "Ning'er, I'll see you off!"
Song Ning then said: "No need, I have so many guards here, what are you afraid of? Just stay with Mr. Lin more."
An Zixuan couldn't help but feel depressed, and he couldn't bear to insist too much, so he said, "Then I'll take you out the door."
Song Ning then said to Chen Yang, "How about Mr. Lin come with us?"
But Chen Yang was a sensible person. He said, "I suddenly felt anxious and wanted to go to the hut, so I didn't want to see Miss Ning'er off."
Song Ning's face turned slightly red and she stopped insisting.
An Zixuan secretly said: "Boy, I guess you know the truth."
Afterwards, An Zixuan sent Song Ning out of Huayinju. Before getting on the carriage, Song Ning couldn't help but said: "Zixuan, although this Mr. Lin is not from a good background, he is really a talented person. What he said today
If you do, the poems you write will be extraordinary. I will write them down carefully when I go back."
An Zixuan smiled slightly and said: "Ning'er is right, I admire him too. Song Ning said again: "I will come to see Mr. Lin tomorrow, will you come with me?" An Zixuan said: "That's natural,
No matter when and where, I am willing to accompany you Ning'er."
Song Ning's face turned red, and then she said, "Okay, I'm leaving then." An Zixuan then said, "Have a safe trip!"
Song Ning turned around and got on the carriage. An Zixuan watched Song Ning's carriage leave, and finally turned around and entered Huayinju. An Zixuan first walked towards the Lotus Pavilion, and Chen Yang naturally did not go to the hut. As soon as An Zixuan arrived, Chen Yang
Then he said: "Mr. An, you really don't want to
It's time to come back!" An Zixuan suddenly looked bad and said, "What do you mean by that?" Chen Yang smiled slightly, drank to himself, and said, "Mr. An, you may have misunderstood my good intentions. Look.
It turns out that you like Miss Ning'er, right?"
An Zixuan said with a dark face: "This seems to be none of your business."
Chen Yang smiled and said, "It's none of my business, but you can't pursue Miss Ning'er like this."
An Zixuan sneered and said, "I can't pursue it, how can you pursue it?"
Chen Yang said: "I am just a vulgar person, who is worthy of Miss Ning'er." He paused and said: "Mr. An, I am not your love rival, and I don't like Miss Ning'er either, who is more worthy of me."
I can’t, so I don’t dare to have extravagant hopes. But maybe, I can help you pursue Miss Ning’er.”
An Zixuan's expression softened a little and he said, "Who are you, and what is your purpose in approaching us?"
Chen Yang said: "If I say that I have no purpose, Mr. An, would you believe it?"
An Zixuan said: "Lin..."
"Lin Qianshan!" Chen Yang said.
An Zixuan said: "Lin Qianshan, it's okay for you to lie to Ning'er. If you want to lie to me, it's impossible. Tell me your purpose."
Chen Yang smiled slightly and said: "If I have any purpose, then the only purpose is to find a future. I am tired of living like this."
An Zixuan glanced at Chen Yang and said, "Is it really that simple?"
Chen Yang said in surprise: "Is this easy? Mr. An, you really don't know the sufferings of the world! How difficult is it for a person with no background like me to find a future?"
An Zixuan said: "But I can't trust you."
Chen Yang said: "I didn't ask Mr. An to help me with anything, and trust is something that is slowly established. I was planning to leave today, but I really didn't expect you to come out. I originally wanted to be here
Stay for a few days and see if there is any chance."
"There are so many cities, why did you choose Black Prison City?" An Zixuan said.
Chen Yang said: "I have said before that these are troubled times. I have been to other cities. But most of them are self-reliant and have no ambitions. Where there are too many talents in the Song Dynasty, it will be difficult for me to get ahead.
Only here is Taishan King. Taishan King is the place with the most courage and the most lack of talents. I think this place can allow me to express my ambitions."
An Zixuan took another look at Chen Yang and said: "What you said is half true and half false. I'm not sure what you want, but it doesn't matter, just stay here for now. If I really think you can trust me.
I can help you recommend it to King Taishan!"
Chen Yang said: "Thank you very much Mr. An."
An Zixuan said: "By the way, why did you just say that I shouldn't come back?"
Chen Yang said: "Of course you shouldn't come back. Don't you know that women are duplicitous animals? If she says it doesn't matter, it does matter. If she says she's not angry, she is angry. If she tells you not to give it away, do you really not give it to her?
You may not really insist on getting into the carriage to see her off, will she think you don't understand the charm and think you are hateful?"
An Zixuan was stunned for a moment and said, "What you said seems to make sense."
Chen Yang said: "Of course it makes sense. When chasing girls, you need to be careful, bold, and thick-skinned. Although Miss Ning'er is a wealthy woman, she is still a considerate and romantic woman. Do you still remember her couplet? One is green
The water is worry-free, but its face is wrinkled by the wind. One is the mandarin ducks competing in Qiushui Yintang, all of which have the hidden meaning of longing for spring!"
