Chapter 31: Banquet at the Princess Mansion, goodbye fellow villagers!
Sunrise and dusk, still no bright moon.
The story of Chen Xuan of Taiping Dao and the talisman master Yan Se having a drink was widely spread in the huge city of Chang'an.
Coupled with the promotion of the dark disk of Xiling Temple in Chang'an City, the name of Chen Xuan of Taiping Road gradually spread in Chang'an City.
In all the countries in the world, the temple does not hesitate to use teleportation formations to make Chen Xuan famous all over the world.
This is not because the temple intentionally made Chen Xuan famous, but because Chen Xuan happened to meet him and became the leader of the wave.
On this day, the invitation from the Fourth Princess's Mansion was delivered to the Chen Mansion. Soon after, a carriage drove out from the back door of the Chen Mansion.
It was a very ordinary carriage, but the person driving the carriage was the former direct maid of Her Royal Highness the Fourth Princess.
The person sitting in the carriage was Chen Xuan, who in two days became famous as a Taiping Daoist in Chang'an.
What kind of demeanor should a Taoist have who can have a drink with Master Yan Se and sit down to talk about Taoism?
It's just that most practitioners have some complaints about Mr. Chen of Taiping Dao, who drank with Master Yan Se in Hongxiuzhao and sat down to discuss Taoism.
Such a solemn discussion still loses its meaning when placed in a brothel.
No matter how good the red-sleeved move is, it can't change the nature of the brothel, but the criticisms of some practitioners can't stop the honest legs.
Some practitioners who wanted to go but were unable to go found reasonable reasons for themselves. When they watched Master Yan Se discuss Taoism with Mr. Chen of Taiping Dao, naturally no one said anything.
After listening to that discussion, Shui Zhuer naturally became an even more popular oiran.
At that time, there were many admirers, including wealthy and powerful families. If the palace had not issued a message, I am afraid there would have been a lot of farce.
Soon after, Qing He stopped the carriage and woke up Chen Xuan, who was in the carriage with his eyes closed to rest.
Qinghe said: "Mr. Chen, the princess's residence has arrived."
In the carriage, Chen Xuan got up and stepped out of the carriage. Under the leadership of Qing He, he once again entered the gate of the princess mansion.
No matter before or now, Chen Xuan is not good at dealing with the nobles of the Manchu Dynasty.
It’s not that I can’t, but that I don’t want to. I talk a lot about benevolence and morality, but in my heart I only think of exploitation.
If it weren't for a private banquet, I'm afraid Chen Xuan would rather read those scripts that were circulated in the countryside of the Tang Dynasty.
A big bucket comes in, a small bucket comes out, a kick to the tip, and you can collect three to five buckets more.
Near the private banquet at the Princess Mansion, the place where the place is located, the music of silk and bamboo orchestras is heard, making it even more peaceful.
The singing and dancing are weak, the veil is flying, and the long sleeves are dancing, making it even more enchanting and charming. Although it is not exposed at all, it is more alluring.
Among them, the person leading the dance is Shui Zhuer, who has become famous in Hongxiu in recent days.
The courtesan with red sleeves is just a dancing girl in this princess's mansion.
Sitting at the main seat, Li Yu, dressed in indigo clothes, wearing a jade hairpin, and many ornaments decorated with three thousand black hair, stood up and faced Chen Xuan, waiting until he was close to Chen Xuan.
Li Yu grabbed Chen Xuan's arm without any regard for his status and said: "Everyone, this is me who was in this palace and saved me many times when I returned home."
"In the red sleeves, Mr. Chen of Taiping Dao, having a drink with Master Yan Se and sitting down to talk about Taoism."
On the desks on both sides, the Crown Prince of Yan, Chong Ming, widened his eyes, first looking at Li Yu, and then at Chen Xuan, filled with anger.
But when he thought of his identity as a proton, Chongming had no choice but to drink to drown his sorrows, which only made him more sorrowful.
The current Yan State cannot afford to offend a practitioner who can drink with Master Yan Se and sit down to discuss the Tao.
Chen Xuan smiled slightly, and his eyes swept across the hall. After he opened Li Yu's hand, he said calmly: "Your Highness, you are very complimentary. It is a blessing to be able to discuss talismans with Master Yan Se."
Stones from other mountains can attack jade from other mountains. Yan Se's talismans also gave him a lot of inspiration.
For example, the well symbol that touched the rules of the movement of heaven and earth dug a well in the Jingshen Formation.
After returning to his seat, Li Yu clapped his hands to signal the maid to pass on the dishes, and the singing and dancing that had just been interrupted continued.
Chao Xiaoshu looked at Chen Xuan and was sure that Mr. Chen from Taiping Road was the man standing next to Master Yan Se in the rain that night.
So this banquet is naturally a banquet without a good banquet, the prince of the Yan Kingdom, the future King of Yan.
Ning Que came out of Weicheng and was protected by the Princess Mansion.
In addition, this Mr. Chen from Taiping Road, we still need him to take sides!
It's just that he is not taking sides now, but taking sides in the future. The purpose is to let him see clearly who will be the future leader of the Tang Dynasty.
Li Yu's eyes stayed on Chen Xuan. She smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, this is Chongming, the crown prince of the Yan Kingdom. His younger brother is the Son of Light of the Xiling Temple of Light."
"This is the leader of the Yulong Gang. The battle at Chunfeng Pavilion that night against uncle Ye Chao was truly famous in Chang'an."
"That is Ning Que, a soldier of the Weicheng army. He also wants to be admitted to the academy the day after tomorrow."
The maids carried straight dishes and walked briskly among the songs and dances.
The wine and food are delicious, the singing and dancing are sluggish, but they have lost a bit of their heroic spirit.
Chao Xiaoshu stood up and apologized: "Your Highness, just call me Chao Xiaoshu. Common people should not be called Uncle Chao."
He is a commoner and does not even have a title. If this news spreads to Uncle Chao.
I'm not sure how much trouble I'll get into for him.
Li Yu smiled and said: "Uncle Chao, I know my father, so Yu'er's words of uncle Chao, uncle Chao are naturally appropriate."
Chao Xiaoshu, who was put on the bright side, still has great use, but it's a pity that she can't find it now.
There is evidence that the woman was from a demon sect, otherwise how could the woman have been able to remain stable until now.
Later, Li Yu walked to Chen Xuan's table, poured him wine himself, and asked: "I heard that Mr. Chen was having a drink with Master Yan Se and they were talking about it. If he said 'thunder is coming', thunder from the nine heavens would fall on the world." "I wonder if this is possible?"
Chen Xuan looked at Li Yu with a serious look on his face, took the wine glass from Li Yu's hand, and said: "That day, I was indeed having a drink with Master Yan Se at Hong Xiuzhao, sitting back and talking, but with just one word of 'Thunder is coming!', there was nine days of thunder.
Falling into the world."
"It's just a rumor. Rumors only stop at the wise. Your Highness should not believe this rumor."
"If you don't believe rumors, don't spread them, and wait to refute them, you will become a wise man!"
"It's just a bit of practice. If I can really command the Nine Heavens Thunder, why would I need to be admitted to the academy?"
Chen Xuan's calm demeanor, instead of alleviating the speculations of Li Yu and others, actually deepened Chen Xuan's unpredictability.
Many people died in Chang'an City that night, even two of the secret guards of Dongxuan Upper Realm died, and two of them were struck to death by thunder.
While Ning Que was drinking, he looked at this man who looked like a fellow countryman, but how should he go up and talk to him?
Sang Sang held the wine jar and drank heavily. The maid was so busy that she kept moving the wine, which made people silent for a while.
Everyone at the banquet was no better at drinking than a little maid.
