The famous book tour starting from the Red House

Chapter 11 The Banquet at Chunxianglou

Mu Xu rode his horse to the downstairs of Chunxiang Building, turned over and dismounted, and the handyman of Chunxiang Building stepped forward to take the reins of the horse and took it to the back to look after it.

Chunxiang Tower is located on Luoshui River, with three stories high, carved beams and painted pillars. It is one of the most famous restaurants in Shenjing City.

The shop waiter at the door greeted and sent them off. Naturally, he had extraordinary eyesight. Looking at the attire of Mu Xu and his party, he knew that they were the princes and grandsons.While welcoming him into the door, he asked if he had an appointment.

Just as Mu Xu was about to answer, someone shouted from upstairs,
"Cousin, here."

Mu Xu looked up, and saw Tu Rui, the prince of Zhongjing, lying on the fence on the third floor, waving to him.

The diners who can come here are all either rich or expensive. Whoever is not on airs on weekdays, has never seen someone making such a loud noise.

In the box upstairs, some young masters who had been disturbed by their elegance even wanted someone to teach this bad guest a lesson. The servants who came out to check reported that it was Prince Zhongjing, the famous street tiger in Shenjing. He couldn't help guessing which prince's son the cousin he was talking about was.

Mu Xu raised his head and waved to Tu Rui, and was about to go upstairs.I never thought that in a box on the second floor, there was a scolding voice, "Which bastard disturbed the elegant mood of the men."

Hearing that someone dared to challenge Prince Zhongjing, those diners all became interested and went out one after another, standing by the fence to watch the excitement.

Tu Rui was stunned when he heard someone teasing his beard, then he was furious, and ordered the guards on the left and right,

"Grandpa, pull out the one who is not afraid of death, and beat him hard."

Then a group of guards rushed out from the room next to him and went straight to the second floor.In a short while, I heard the sound of tables and chairs falling and dishes being overturned from that room, and someone screamed in pain, and there was a lot of noise inside.

Mu Xu hurriedly went upstairs, and as soon as he reached the second floor, he saw that in the room, the tables and chairs fell to the ground, there were still a few servants lying on the ground, and Tu Rui's guards were dragging the struggling man backwards. Come out of the room.

He was about to go up to ask, but he didn't want to chase a few people out of the room, but Jia Lian was the one who took the lead. When he looked closely, he found that there were quite a few people he knew inside.

In addition to Jia Lian, Jia Rong was also there, and the two of them were stopping a few guards with two young masters whom Mu Xu didn't know, as if they were interceding, Jia Baoyu and Qiguan followed behind.

Mu Xu hurriedly stepped forward to stop, the leading guard knew Mu Xu, and hurriedly asked the others to stop.

Jia Lian was overjoyed when he saw Mu Xu restrain the guards, and hurried up to salute.He also introduced the two sons beside him, Feng Ziying, the son of General Shenwu and Han Qi, the son of Jinxianghou, who appeared in the original text.He introduced Mu Xu's identity to several people.

Mu Xu waved his hand to signal that they don't need to be polite, and when he asked Jia Lian why, Jia Lian hurriedly said.

Seeing Jia Lian and the others, Mu Xu had some guesses in his heart. Hearing what Jia Lian said, it was indeed what he thought. The one who was beaten on the ground was Xue Pan, the dumb king.

It turned out that Xue Pan invited a few people to come here for a banquet today. Xue Pan has always been a meat eater.

Unexpectedly, the Qi official thought he was rude and ignored him, and only wanted to get close to Jia Baoyu, which made Xue Pan very angry.Inevitably, he drank a lot of wine, and was feeling bored, when he suddenly heard someone shouting outside, he thought it was Jinling, and ignored the drinking and cursing.

Jia Lian and the others didn't have time to dissuade them, and their hearts were not good. Sure enough, after a while, several big men rushed in.The servants led by several people stepped forward to block them, but they were no match for these people, and they were knocked to the ground not long after.

Several people hurried forward to dissuade him, but those people didn't listen, they beat Xue Pan as soon as they found out, and dragged him out after the beating.

When Jia Lian saw Mu Xu, he seemed to know the guards, and hurriedly begged him to intercede.

Mu Xu looked at being pushed to the ground, with vegetable leaves on his head, and vegetable soup all over his body, and he kept yelling, "If you want to beg, let go of me if you have the guts."

"What kind of a man is a group of people who bully me?" Xue Pan couldn't help laughing.

Seeing his strange expression, Jia Lian hurried forward and kicked Xue Pan, "Hurry up and shut up."

Xue Pan just shut up.

Jia Lian looked at Mu Xu, and couldn't help but blushed, "Since your son knows these people, why don't you say something."

"It's true that the Xue family's cousin was wrong about today's incident. I will definitely ask him to come to the house to apologize afterwards."

Mu Xu was about to speak, only to hear someone reply from behind,
"There's no need to go to the door to apologize, and no cat or dog can go to the door of the young master."

"Pull him up and let me take a good look. Where did he come from, who dares to act like a master in front of me."

It turned out that Tu Rui had been waiting upstairs for a long time, and couldn't bear it anymore and came down in person.

Seeing Tu Rui, Jia Lian and the others thought something was wrong, they naturally knew this famous and respectful prince.

No matter what, several people still stepped forward to salute, but Tu Rui ignored them, pointing to Xue Pan who was pulled up and asked Mu Xu,

"Cousin knows this guy."

Xue Pan wasn't really stupid either. Looking at the expressions of Jia Lian and the others, he knew that he couldn't afford to offend them, so he listened to what he had to say.He hurriedly looked at Mu Xu, knowing that Jia Lian knew him, and hoped that he would say something nice for him.

Mu Xu saw Tu Rui asking each other, and saw Jia Lian begging, so he could only say love,

"This person is a relative of the Rongguo Mansion. For my cousin's sake, let him be spared. How about letting him kowtow to his cousin to make amends?"

As he said that, he winked at Jia Lian, and Jia Lian hurried to Xue Pan and explained the situation to him in his ear, so as not to make him confused.

Xue Pan is also a bully, and when he heard the identity of the person he provoked, he knew that it would be useless to move out his uncle Wang Ziteng, so he stepped forward to apologize with shame.

Without waiting for him to kneel down, Tu Rui waved his hands casually,
"For my cousin's sake, forget it, get out of here, and don't obstruct my eyes."

Jia Lian and the others hurried forward to thank them, but Tu Rui still ignored them and only talked to Mu Xu.

While talking with Tu Rui, Mu Xu signaled Jia Lian and the others to leave quickly.Only then did Jia Lian and the others help Xue Pan go downstairs.

After watching them leave, Mu Xu and Tu Rui went upstairs and entered the room.

Tu Rui asked curiously, "Why did my cousin come back to Beijing, and he recognizes those people."

Mu Xu didn't hide anything, he talked about the relationship between his family and Jia's family, and thanked Tu Rui.

Tu Rui didn't take it seriously, and when the food and wine were served, the two started gossiping.The two were not familiar with each other before, but they became acquainted after this incident.

Mu Xu found out that this cousin was a second person. Although he was a prince and grandson, he spoke like a commoner, completely unassuming, laughing and cursing, and unrestrained.

Can't help but sigh, as expected, people are not judged by their appearance, and this cousin is not as bad as the rumors, on the contrary, he is surprisingly interesting.

And Mu Xu came from a later life, with extraordinary knowledge, and when he talked, he could talk to different places, and Tu Rui could pick up whatever he said.

During this exchange, the two of them hated seeing each other for too long, and the meal lasted for two hours, until the evening.

In the end, Tu Rui was still not happy and wanted to change places.She said that she was going to Liuyun Pavilion, a famous brothel in Beijing, to find a few top brands, and to drink with them until dawn.

Although Mu Xu wanted to see the ancient high-end clubs, he was afraid that his grandmother and mother would know.Busy tweeted that I ate too much wine today, I have to go back to rest, and I will go another day.

It provoked Tu Rui to say that he was unhappy, and finally the two made an appointment to go hunting outside the city together tomorrow, and then they separated and went back to their respective homes.

But today, when Jia Lian and others left Chunxiang Building, they lost interest after such a thing happened, so they had to leave and go home. Only Jia Baoyu and Qiguan were still there saying goodbye.Finally, unable to withstand Jia Lian's repeated urging, the two were willing to separate.

When they returned to Rongguo Mansion, Jia Rong and Jia Baoyu went without mentioning it.Jia Lian asked Xue Pan to help him, and personally sent Xue Pan to Lixiangyuan where Xue's family lived.

When they arrived at Lixiangyuan, Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai saw Xue Pan with a bruised nose and swollen face, being supported by servants, and thought that Xue Pan had been beaten badly.

Aunt Xue was so frightened that her hands and feet went limp, she couldn't stand still, she almost fainted, but fortunately she was supported by the maid.It was Xue Baochai who remained calm in the face of danger, and hurriedly ordered someone to help Xue Pan back to his room, and then ordered someone to invite a doctor.

In fact, Xue Pan's injury was not serious, it was just a skin trauma.The reason why he was supported was because he felt humiliated when he was beaten in front of outsiders.The second is to be frightened. Hearing that he had offended the prince and grandson, his legs went weak for a while.

Although Xue Pan was an idiot, he was kind to his family. When he saw his mother was so frightened that he almost fainted, he didn't care about losing face in front of Jia Lian. Aunt, comforted,
"Mother, don't be afraid, I'm just a superficial wound, it doesn't matter."

Aunt Xue heard what he said, and saw that he moved freely, so she put her heart in her belly, and she didn't care about her son's dirty body, so she hugged him and cried,
"Which bastard is so cruel, beat my son like this."

"Wait for me to find your uncle and uncle, and I will definitely not divorce him."

Xue Baochai saw that her brother was fine and Jia Lian was embarrassed, so she hurriedly interrupted her mother and asked,
"Second brother Lian, didn't you go out to drink with Baoyu and the others, why was my brother beaten up like this?"

Jia Lian didn't add fuel to the picture right now, so he told the story of Chunxiang Tower.

Hearing that her son provoked the eldest son of the prince's family, Aunt Xue stopped talking about making trouble for him, but just slapped Xue Pan and cursed,
"In the past when you were in Jinling, you knew that you would go out and cause trouble. If you were in trouble, you would run to the capital and feel uneasy."

"This capital is full of nobles, and you still go out to cause trouble."

After all, it was Xue Baochai. Before her mother could finish speaking, she thought about it more, and hurriedly invited Jia Lian into the room, and asked someone to bring tea and snacks.Then he asked worriedly,

"Second Brother Lian, my elder brother has caused a catastrophe this time, so will Prince Zhongjing pursue it?"
