Chang'an is good

Chapter 106

Yuzhu's startled questioning made a female envoy walk in quickly.

As the female envoy opened the green bamboo curtain, the smell suddenly became stronger, and the lingering smoke also floated inside.

Yuzhu asked anxiously, "What are you burning?"

"Aunt Yuxie, I'm sorry, I just burned some wormwood in front of the door." The maid explained in a soothing tone.

Yuxie clutched the thin blanket beside her tightly: "Ai Cao...why did you burn this all of a sudden?"

"Burning moxa on the Dragon Boat Festival has the effect of curing diseases and exorcising evil spirits." The female envoy said warmly, "Because Aunt Yuxie was feeling uneasy recently, I thought about burning it."

"Dragon Boat Festival..." Yuza suddenly looked out the window in a daze: "Is it Dragon Boat Festival today?"

Seeing her calm down a little, the maid also smiled and nodded: "Exactly."

"Dragon Boat Festival every year... If His Highness is in Beijing, people will burn moxa..." Yuxian's voice gradually weakened like a whisper: "And I will go to Shuiyun Tower to get calamus wine back... Only Shuiyun Tower brews His calamus wine, His Royal Highness likes it the most."

The other students were even more stunned. For some students who secretly wrote scripts under a pseudonym to subsidize their families, a big word appeared in their minds—Shock!The girl from the General's Mansion spent a lot of money to buy the banquet hall on the second floor of the Dengtai Building, and it was only for this purpose!

Could it be that his dignified Cui Jialiulang's sincerity and demeanor are not enough to impress the other party?
"Brother Qi is also coming to the Tailou, but he got it..." One of them just opened his mouth to explain, only to hear a loud and surprised sound.

He also wore a new robe today, and even the horse he was riding on had obviously just been brushed, and the horse hair was clean and shiny.

Isn't it true that Qiao Jijiu actually came to congratulate him in person?
He won glory in the knockout match that day, even if he is called the glory of the Imperial College... But he never thought that he would be able to let the sacrificial wine come to congratulate him!
Moreover, Qiao Jijiu not only came here by himself, but also brought Mrs. Jijiu and Mrs. Qiao... How sincere is this!
Cui Lang's scalp shuddered and went numb from being touched, and when his gaze subconsciously rested on Qiao Yumian, he suddenly heard the sound of a horse's hoof.

Mentioning this point, I couldn't help but look forward with anticipation: "I don't know if elder brother can come over."

Cui Lang was wearing a newly cut lotus root pink brocade robe today, his hair was neatly tied up, jade was worn around his waist, and he held a folding fan in his hand, he was very energetic.

"Wei Shilang has arrived!"

This Aunt Yuxie had served Her Royal Highness Princess Chongyue for many years—the sage ordered them to take care of this delirious Aunt Yuxie personally. Nonsense words affecting the name of the late Princess Eldest Princess is also a major consideration.

Suddenly, intense unease appeared on Yucha's face, she slammed down from the bed, walked out of the bedroom quickly, and used her hands to put out the handful of moxa that was slowly burning.

As he spoke, he suddenly put away his folding fan and greeted a young man who had just dismounted: "Hu Huan, here it is!"

Yihu: "Don't talk nonsense..."

But that code should have disappeared with His Highness long ago!

But Mrs. Chang is an only child, Qiao Jijiu has one and only one serious student!
The same overwhelming look of bewilderment also appeared on the faces of other students.

The noise became worse for a while, and seeing Qiao Jijiu walking towards him, and wearing a rare new robe, his beard was obviously carefully groomed, and he looked extraordinarily energetic, Cui Lang's lips trembled——

Aunt Yuxie was especially fond of the old master, and they respected her even more when they saw it.

He was born in writing scripts, and he is very good at focusing on the key points.

Cui Lang stared blankly for a moment, and hurriedly saluted——Yao Tingwei also came to cheer him up!Could it be that he was overwhelmed by his heroic demeanor on the shooting field that day?
"Quick... Joe's sacrificial wine is here!"

Yihu's complexion is complicated - is it possible that Mrs. Chang is more important than Mr. Da Lang in Mr. Lang's heart now?
At this time Hu Huan said: "Zhiyuan has arrived!"

Therefore, it is both placement and surveillance.

At the end of the speech, his expression was stagnant, and he felt that he was a little timid, he laughed dryly to dispel the embarrassment, and then said: "Of course I don't mind, it will be more lively if we bump into each other... Besides, if I am very helpful, how can I have the opportunity to hold this celebration banquet today ?”

Students: "?!"

Chang Suining nodded, and his voice was normal: "Well, let's do it."

Otherwise, with so many empty seats, it would seem deserted and humiliating!
Hu Huan nodded hurriedly. Like Cui Lang, he had a heart of gratitude and admiration for Chang Suining after the shooting match.

Cui Lang and others looked and saw that it was Chang Suining who walked into the restaurant, accompanied by Chang Suian and several servants.

"Is there any reason to come here empty-handed?" Wei Shuyi smiled and said: "My mother will arrive later, so I asked Mrs. Chang not to be offended."

The waiter in the restaurant was also taken aback. Fortunately, the restaurant is so big that he has seen all kinds of birds: "Please be patient, guest, the kitchen is just preparing the dishes at this hour..."

Because his father disapproved of his admission to the Imperial College, he always liked to find troubles. In order for today's celebration banquet to be successfully held, he pretended to be his grandson at home for the past three days, patronizing his father and smoothing his hair. He was exhausted every day. Life is better than death, it is true that you don't hear anything outside the window, and you have never been out of the door once!
After listening to the students around him chattering about the banquet, Cui Lang understood it, looked upstairs and sighed deeply.

"I haven't thought about it yet." Chang Suining said: "It doesn't need to be empty, just make it clean and spacious."

Hi, that's what he said.

Cui Lang was surprised.

Yuzhu screamed and struggled, her eyes once again sunk into chaos and madness.

The code pattern that was so familiar that it was carved into her bones flashed again before Yuxie's eyes.

Could it be that his grandfather took a fancy to him... and this is the deep meaning of his grandfather letting him enter the Imperial College?
Cui Lang suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment—in the past, he probably knew too little about his own excellence!
"Jijiu, General Chang, Yao Tingwei, Wei Shilang..." He couldn't shout for a while, and he was flattered to invite people in: "Please come into the building to talk!"

Cui Lang was stunned, and looked up in the direction of the second and third floors in a daze.

Soon, other students invited by Cui Lang also arrived one after another, including three of the four Xuan team students who were defeated by them that day.

I just came over from breakfast, so there's no need for such an "end earlier" method!

The student couldn't help but nodded: "Thank you... I woke up from the dream."

Why didn't he hear the wind?
Oh yes...

Cui Lang was surprised.

The female envoy sighed knowingly from the bottom of her heart, she was talking about some old things that were half dreams and half real.

Chang Suining nodded: "It's good that Cui Liulang doesn't mind."

Cui Lang had no choice but to give up his thoughts.

"However... Mrs. Chang said just now that she only sent about thirty invitations, so five or six or seven tables would be enough to receive guests. I don't know what to do with the rest?" Cui Lang asked curiously.

He didn't invite Wei Shilang either.

"Be sober." The familiar classmate reminded him: "Even if you go back to the West to set up banquets, you probably wouldn't have so much money to put in this Dengtailou."

After Cui Lang accepted the fact that he "has charm, but within a reasonable range", out of curiosity, he inquired with the waiter in the building how many tables were set for the teacher apprentice banquet upstairs.

The visitor is Chang Kuo.

While Hu Huan and other students were doing their best, Cui Lang had already stepped forward to meet him: "Miss Chang, the scene of the master apprentice banquet today is really shocking us!"

"Anyway, we were invited." Cui Lang said, beckoning to the waiter: "Serve!"

Chang Sui Ning looked at him with a smile: "I just collided with Cui Liulang's celebration banquet, Cui Liulang doesn't mind?"

Chang Suining looked at him, and asked without answering, "I wonder if Wei Shilang has prepared a congratulatory gift?"

Everyone walked over chatting, laughing and greeting, and nodded to him when they passed by his side.

What really shocked Cui Lang was—how many people did Mrs. Chang invite to this apprentice banquet!
Ordinary apprenticeship banquets are mostly a private table, and a famous person is invited to witness the incident. If there are more teachers and brothers in the same school, it is understandable to set up a few more tables appropriately.

The clerk smiled and said: "The second and third floors are all occupied. Today, the shop will not accept other guests except you and Changfu's apprentice banquet."

Their restaurant is different from the early shop of the tea house, only doing lunch and dinner business.

Wei Shuyi turned his head with a smile, and looked thoughtfully at the direction of Jiantong going downstairs.

Chang Kuo and the others went up to the second floor while talking.

He couldn't help sighing again: "My surname is Cui, so the bridegroom really has nothing to do as an official. He can only marry girls from those families. Getting married really isn't necessarily a happy event."

The look of shock on Hu Huan's face couldn't be erased: "You said... how many invitations did Mrs. Chang send out?"

Yuzhu stared blankly out of the window, sniffing the aroma of wormwood at the tip of her nose, trembling uncontrollably rose from her fingertips and spread to her whole body.

Don't say you mind, as long as Madam Chang doesn't think he's in the way, everything will be fine!
Thinking of the consequences if he gets in the way, Cui Lang already put his hands on his head in his heart.

Chang Suining walked towards Qiao Jijiu and Chang Kuo who smiled and waved at her.

Cui Lang "tssed": "What are you afraid of, father is not here today!"

Thinking about relatives during the festive season makes it easier to think about old people and old things. Those old pictures that she wants to forget, catalyzed by the smell of wormwood, kept churning in her mind.

Cui Lang shuddered, and quickly shook his head: "How dare you!"

Dengtai Restaurant is not comparable to ordinary restaurants. Because the business is getting more and more prosperous, it has been expanded several times, and each floor can accommodate more than a hundred diners. The Chang family actually occupied two entire floors in one go? !

Yihu reminded him in a low voice beside him: "Your Majesty, we haven't got all the people yet, besides, Mr. Da Lang hasn't arrived yet, what are you in a hurry for..."

Cui Lang gave a suspicious "Hey"—the celebration banquet he set up was in the hall on the first floor!
When he was about to call for someone, he heard a classmate beside him say in surprise: "I only know that the lady of the Chang family is going to have a banquet here today, but I didn't expect that even Yao Tingwei and Wei Shilang will come..."

"Wei Shilang?"

Is his personal charm stronger than he imagined?

After walking up to the second floor, Xi'er asked Chang Suining in a low voice: "Girl, is it almost time?"

Cui Lang quickly slapped the folding fan twice in his hand, and proudly said: "I won the Dragon Boat Festival Jury Competition of the Imperial Academy, isn't this more gratifying than being a bridegroom official!"

Cui Lang was stunned: "That's right, we still have to wait for elder brother to come."

Yihu who accompanied him whispered: "Lang Jun looks so happy, I don't know if today is your big day, and you are here as a groom and official to welcome guests..."

He was standing outside the door of the restaurant at the moment, waiting for the visitor with a happy face.

"It seems that this apprentice banquet is really going to be a lively one. I heard that most of the famous and talented students in our Imperial College have received invitations from Mrs. Chang...Brother Qi has also accepted it! "

"Shuiyunlou, calamus wine..." Yuxie sat on the couch, talking to herself intermittently.

"How could it be?"

Seeing the gentle and graceful young gentleman nodding towards him with a smile, Cui Lang hurriedly raised his hand to salute - although the other party came uninvited, but at least he was Dongtai's servant, he should treat him warmly!
Soon, a seemingly ordinary soft sedan came to a stop, the bearer lifted the curtain, and a middle-aged man in a blue robe came out from inside.

"Counting the ones sent out for sacrificial wine, there are a total of thirty or so." A clear and lingling voice replied in the usual tone.

"Aunt Yusha!"

Regardless of whether it is rich or not, after all, when it comes to richness, the Cui family will never lose to anyone, and as the heir of the Cui family, he will not be shocked by his richness——

One student was a bit puzzled and said: "But Mrs. Chang just said... let us 'try to sit up', what does this 'try' mean?"

"Madam Chang, what else do you want to do?" Wei Shuyi asked curiously.

But Aunt Yuxie was quite worry-free. Although her mind was not clear and she would act out of control from time to time, she never wanted to leave the princess mansion. She never went out once in 12 years.

There is more than calamus wine in Shuiyun Tower!

The student from a poor background looked up at the upstairs in astonishment: "I...I'm afraid I can't set up so many tables when I go back to the west."

Seeing Chang Kuo get off his horse and walk towards here, Cui Lang was completely stunned.

"Miss Chang is here!"

Xi Zhiyuan walked in with his book boy, and saluted his classmates with a smile.

Cui Lang finally found his own voice: "... Mrs. Chang? Appreciation banquet?! When did it happen?"

Outside the Dengtai Tower today, fresh wormwood and calamus are placed beside the gate according to the custom.

Another female envoy hurriedly took the wormwood away from here.

Cui Lang straightened his back and followed into the restaurant.

Xi'er looked at Jiantong, Jiantong nodded knowingly, and went downstairs quickly.

The female envoy didn't know that the Shuiyun Tower she was talking about was the Dengtai Tower before it was renamed, and she didn't care about her nonsense nonsense. Seeing that Yuchai had calmed down, she retreated out to prepare breakfast.

It was like a dream just now, but now it finally feels real.

……

The female envoy hurried over and hugged him.

"You guys can try to sit up after the end here." Chang Suining left this sentence, and went upstairs with Chang Suian.

Four turned into three, but Cui Lang was still not satisfied: "Why is there one less?"

When the young man surnamed Hu saw him, he handed over the horse to the servant, and walked over with a big smile.

"Yao Siqing is also here!"

All the students around Cui Lang saluted one after another.

Cui Lang came back to his senses, and hurriedly confessed: "Let's end sooner later... then we all go up to gather the number for Mrs. Chang!"

Cui Lang: "?"

At the same moment, Cui Jing was sitting in the study in Xuan Ce Mansion, which was only a long street away from Dengtai Building, but had a completely different atmosphere, dealing with official business.

Yuan Xiang glanced at the hourglass by the window from time to time.
