Chapter 26 He Lansheng

The person who called Chen Yi was the handsome and jealous young man in white who appeared when he was fighting with the group of Wu's young masters outside the Zuixian Tower that day. Today, this man was wearing a white shirt, a squid of the same color, a simple outfit, and a faint smile set off his cool and stunning figure, which was a bit amazing. Chen Yi once again felt ashamed of himself.

Why do many handsome men and women appear around me for two days when I came to the Tang Dynasty? Could it be that there were many beautiful men and men in ancient times? However, Chen Yi immediately gave up this idea. When he was just strolling in the West Market, he rarely saw good-looking men and women. I can only say that he was lucky. He happened to see handsome men and women with "good quality". But he was also wondering whether he was asking for a blow to his own relationship with such a relationship!

After a brief shock, Chen Yi calmed down and took two steps forward and bowed, "What a coincidence. I didn't expect to meet the young master here today, so I'm so kind!"

The young man in white also quickly returned the gift. After giving the gift, he stood up straight, looked at Chen Yi with a scrutiny look, and said with a smile: "When I was passing by the car just now, I saw a person who looked like Mr. Chen in front of me. I was confused at that time, but I didn't expect it to be..."

"So that carriage was the young master's car!" Hearing the young master in white say this, Chen Yi immediately thought of the big carriage that had just passed by. The person who lifted the curtain on the carriage and looked out. It turned out that the carriage was riding in the young master in white!

After hearing Chen Yi's words, the young master did not deny it, but did not admit it. He just smiled and said, "Young Master Chen is alone today? Where are your companions that day?"

"My companion who had something to do that day left Chang'an!" Chen Yi tried hard to put away his inferiority complex and said in a calm tone: "I'm idle and go out for a walk. The young master is alone today?"

The young man in white shook his head, "I went to Qujiangchi with my family today, and they went elsewhere..."

"So that's it!" Chen Yi was a little puzzled. Did the handsome young man in white in front of him leave his wife and concubine behind and look for him? Judging from the age of the young man in white, he should be between eighteen and twenty years old. According to Chen Yi's understanding of the history of the Tang Dynasty, a man of this age should be married.

"I heard that the young master was very good at learning. On that day, he shocked the four halls with a song "Youth Travel" in Zuixianlou, which made the Wu brothers angry and wanted to be rude in the street. Unexpectedly, the young master shocked everyone with his own strength. Such a talented man with both civil and military talents is rare in my Tang Dynasty. Someone was very curious and wanted to make friends!" The young master in white said with a smile, bowed and bowed and said, "I wonder if Mr. Chen is free today? He is also a person who likes poetry and prose and fist, foot and swordsmanship. If Mr. Chen doesn't dislike his roughness, I want to ask the young master to drink a drink, I wonder if the young master can appreciate his face?"

Chen Yi was a little surprised by the invitation in person by the young master in white, but hesitated and agreed immediately: "Last time, the young master helped and scared away those who were rough. Thank you, young master, today, and it happened to meet him. It is better to meet him by chance than to invite him. So let me do some drinks of a thin bar!"

"Young Master Chen is polite! Just now, I was speaking first, how can I let you be the owner? Also, I have been living in Chang'an. You came from Yuezhou. You are a guest and I am the master. I must invite you to this wine today!" The young master in white spoke with an uncontroversial tone, and pointed to the house with a wine curtain a little further away and said, "There is a good restaurant there. The grapes inside are no worse than those of Zuixianlou. The three le paste they offer is the best in Chang'an. Let's go there and drink it! Mr. Chen, please!"

"Young Master, please!" Seeing that the other party asked him politely, Chen Yi did not dare to be rude and refused. He agreed after giving the courtesy!

----------------

As they spoke politely, the two walked into the restaurant called "Yunxiang Pavilion" in Qujiangchi. Several entourages of the young master in white stood at the door waiting, but Chen Yi saw a little alert and confusion in the eyes of these entourers, and he didn't care!

The decoration in the hotel is more exquisite than that of Zuixianlou, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a magnificent one. However, there are not many diners in the store, and a few of them are also dressed very well. According to Chen Yi's observation, their identity will not be very ordinary. This is a bit similar to Zuixianlou, or even a little more upscale!

The young master in white may be a regular visitor here. As soon as he entered the restaurant, he nodded and greeted him. Without asking, he welcomed them upstairs. In a very wide private room, the young master in white did not give anything, and even ignored the shopkeepers too much, so he called Chen Yi to come in and sit down.

The shopkeeper looked respectful, bowed to the boy in white and Chen Yi, and stepped out, and brought him to the door. There were only two people in the room.

The boy in white took the lead in sitting down on the couch, and Chen Yi took the seat as well.

After sitting down, the boy in white did not politely anymore and immediately introduced himself: "The following name is Helansheng, whose name is Changzhu, is from Luoyang. I wonder if Mr. Chen can tell you the name!"

"It turns out to be Mr. He, who has been admired for a long time! My surname is Chen Yi, and his name is Ziying. He is from Yuezhou, Jiangnan Road!" Chen Yi answered politely. However, after hearing the self-introduction of Mr. Bai, he was surprised. He guessed that the person who called himself "Helansheng" in front of him might have concealed something from him for some special reasons. "Helansheng" is not his real name, and this person should have another name!

On that day, he had speculations about the identities of the young masters surnamed Wu, and of course he also inferred the cousin of the young master surnamed Wu. Today, the self-introduction of the young master in white further confirmed his inference, and he no longer suspected that his inference was wrong!

But before the final confirmation, he still dared not make a rash statement, nor would he reveal anything!

Chen Yi was also a little regretful. When he was studying Tang History in later generations, although he had paid attention to that evil figure, he only heard it briefly and did not go into it in depth. He didn't know much about this person's information, nor could he guess more from the self-introduction just now and make a conclusion!

After hearing what Chen Yi said, Helansheng did not have any shocked expression, but just smiled self-mockery: "Haha, it turns out that Mr. Chen really... comes from Yuezhou. No wonder he has a southern accent! But... I don't understand why Mr. Chen has no followers around him?"

After hearing the other party’s question, Chen Yi smiled sadly: “Mr. He asked, I really don’t know how to answer…”

"Oh?! Is Mr. Chen in a difficult-to-speaking hidden place?"

The food and food were served here. Chen Yi also adjusted his emotions while the waiter placed the dishes and finally made a decision to tell the person in front of him about his experience.

"It's not a difficult secret, I'm just afraid that Mr. He will think I'm talking nonsense after hearing this!"

"Oh?!" He Lansheng's face became even more interested. After filling the wine in front of Chen Yi, he said again: "Young Master Chen is worried too much. What you said is naturally believed, but if you have a hidden secret, I won't inquire! Haha, come, let's have a drink first..."

"Please!" Seeing He Lansheng raise his glass, Chen Yi also picked up the glass filled with wine in front of him, touched the other party, and drank it all in one go!

The grapes here tasted quite good. Just when the wine was full, Chen Yi smelled the scent. When he drank it, the mellow fragrance flowed into his abdomen. The taste was quite reminiscent! Because of his professionalism, Chen Yi, who had a good alcohol content in later generations, did not drink alcohol often. He was afraid of the harm caused by high concentrations of alcohol to his body, and at most he only drank a few glasses when he couldn't refuse. However, he knew that drinking was a fashion in ancient times, especially in the Tang Dynasty. In the poems of famous people such as Li Bai and Du Fu, he often saw drinking scenes. When traveling to ancient times, he naturally could not avoid the vulgarity and must drink it. Fortunately, the alcohol concentration of various wines in ancient times was not very high, and the same was true for the grapes I just drank. After drinking a large glass of wine, he didn't feel the choking of alcohol, and he also felt that the wine tasted really good!

I just don’t know if the taste of Sanle Juice here is as good as Helansheng said! According to historical records, Sanle Juice was considered a high-quality wine during the Tang Dynasty, which was a bit spicy. People who are generous like to drink this wine, which is satisfying. But Helansheng didn’t order it today.

Helansheng poured the wine in a glass of wine for Chen Yi again, but he didn't ask anything, but the look he looked at Chen Yi was a bit inquiring.

Chen Yi had already thought about how to explain his affairs, and said slowly: "Young Master He may not believe it. You are alone in Xiaxia and have encountered a major change!" Chen Yi played with the glass of wine and said in a tone of sighing: "I came from Yuezhou with a few companions to Chang'an to plan things. But for some reason, when I was about to arrive in Chang'an, I took the wrong path and headed towards Liangshan in the northwest direction. There was an accident in Liangshan... The mount at Xiaxia was frightened and lost control, fell off the cliff, and was injured. The companions were gone. Fortunately, they were rescued by someone!"

"So that's it!" Helansheng stopped his surprised expression and looked like he suddenly realized, "I said why is this possible? Seeing that Mr. Chen is extraordinary in temperament, his talent and martial arts are not comparable to ordinary people. Why did he travel alone? This happened!"

"It makes Mr. He laugh!" Chen Yi smiled bitterly, "It's really not easy for people to believe this when it comes to telling it!"

"I believe it!" Helansheng took a sip of wine and looked at Chen Yi meaningfully: "Are you rescued by Taoist Master Sun?"

"How do you know?"

"Of course I know!" He Lansheng looked proud and smiled sly, "I also know that you came to Chang'an with Master Sun this time. The little lady who went to Zuixianlou with you that day to drink was Master Sun's youngest disciple, named Ning Qing!"

It was Chen Yi's turn to be surprised. He said in disbelief: "Young Master He has inquired about his whereabouts?"

He Lansheng shook his head, "You can't say that you have investigated Mr. Chen's whereabouts, but you happened to meet Master Sun. When you talk about it, you also mentioned you, so you know! I just didn't hear Master Sun talk about your adventure, haha! No wonder, Master Sun and the others returned to Zhongnan Mountain, and you didn't follow him, so you were alone..."

He Lansheng's words surprised Chen Yi even more. Master Sun Simiao had just left Chang'an in the morning, and this person knew so quickly? But before he could express his doubts, he was interrupted by an unexpected situation!

"Brother, you are really here!" A crisp female voice came from outside the door, and then the door was pushed open. With the waiter's respectful thanks, a figure walked in quickly from outside. But after seeing the situation inside the house, he was stunned!

After Chen Yi saw the person coming in clearly, he also stayed there!
