"Who is this Mr. Liang Cheng? It's fine to be called a distinguished guest by Wei Liushou's family, but why does he even know Yang Yu'er? Among the children of powerful and high-ranking officials in the Sui Dynasty, have you never heard of the name Liang Cheng? !"
Chen Yingliang and Chai Qian, who almost went to bed and rolled the sheets together in an open and honest manner, are eye to eye here, but Li Yuan's eldest son, Li Jiancheng, who is next to him, is shocked, and he can't think of it even if he breaks his head. The younger brother, who has never heard of his name, is respected as a distinguished guest by the family of Emperor Weixuan of Daxingtu, and at the same time, he is acquainted with Yang Yuer, whose status is far above his own! Shocked, Li Jiancheng not only immediately made up his mind to make friends with Chen Yingliang, but also applauded and laughed: "That's great, I didn't expect Miss Yang and Mr. Liang to also know each other. If this is the case, then let's not distinguish between inside and outside, and just come here." Sit in the private room, Miss Yang and Mr. Liang's high servants, how about letting them sit in the hall with the servants below?"
Li Shimin glanced at Chen Yingliang, then at Yang Yu'er. He was also very curious about Chen Yingliang's identity, so he nodded and said, "What brother said is very true, and younger brother is willing to obey, but I don't know what Miss Yang and sister Qian'er think?"
Yang Yu'er had already personally admitted that Chen Yingliang was her friend, and Chai Qian was too embarrassed to refuse Chen Yingliang no matter how unpleasant she was, so she immediately nodded in agreement. As a result, Yang Yuer, the only one who knew the inside story, suffered a lot. Chen Yingliang and Chai Qian have been together for a long time, and if they are not careful, they may cause death, but everyone has already agreed, and Yang Yuer, who is kind and gentle, can't refuse, so she can only bite the bullet and nod, saying: "Very good .”
Changing Chen Yingliang was difficult, and being close to Yang Yu'er was of course what Chen Yingliang wished for, but with Zhao Cheng and Yu Le beside him, two soldiers serving the national army, Chen Yingliang, who had always shared weal and woe with his soldiers, was a little embarrassed to throw them in the hall Drink alone. Fortunately, Zhao Yu's younger brother, Zhao Cheng, is a good boy. Seeing Chen Yingliang's embarrassment, he took the initiative to say: "My lord, then you can accompany Mr. Li and Miss Chai to dinner. We will go outside with the brothers from the Wei Mansion." Drink and leave us alone."
After all, Zhao Cheng took Yu Le, who had not fully recovered, and sat aside. Chen Yingliang breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly arranged for four servants from the Weifu to drink with them at the same table, while he followed Li Jiancheng and others into the room. When we arrived at the only vacant private room, we sat down with the brothers of the Li family, Chai Qian and Yang Yuer. During the period, when Li Jiancheng, who volunteered to pay out of his own pocket, was ordering food, Li Shimin suddenly asked Chen Yingliang: "Mr. Liang, your two followers should be soldiers in the army, right? Could it be that you are also a general?"
"Second Young Master, how do you know they are lieutenant soldiers?" Chen Yingliang's shock was no small matter.
"Your Master's two attendants are sitting with their waists straight, their legs slightly apart, and their hands on the table. This is a typical Sui officer's and soldier's sitting posture." Li Shimin replied truthfully: "In addition, I also noticed that the two of them There are thick calluses on the tiger's mouth of the man's right hand, which should be the marks left by holding weapons for many years, so the younger brother ventured to speculate that the two of them should be soldiers in the army. He is not like an officer, so I dare to speculate that the young master should be the queen of the general."
Chen Yingliang opened his mouth wide. Looking at Li Shimin, there was only one thought left in his mind, "Li Er is Li Er, and he really deserves his reputation! Such small details, even if I, a person who has been relying on solving cases for a living for many years, don't pay special attention or pay attention to them." This Li Er must be difficult to deal with!"
He was secretly vigilant in his heart, but Chen Yingliang, who had outstanding acting skills, showed a vivid shocked expression on his face, and exclaimed: "My good brother is talented! If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes and heard it with my own ears, brother Yu really can't believe that there are such things in the world. It's a miracle that a person's identity can be analyzed just by his clothes and behavior! Yes, they are indeed lieutenant soldiers!"
"Brother Liang, thank you." Li Er smiled slightly, and asked again: "Brother Liang, I dare to speculate that you are the queen of the general. I don't know if I guessed wrong?"
"That's right." Chen Yingliang, who is indeed the queen of the general, nodded quickly, and said again: "To tell you the truth, Brother Yu and Duke Li are some distant relatives, and they respect Duke Li as uncles. These two generals of the Sui Dynasty are General Xie Zichong of the Youwuwei For the sake of my uncle, General Xie lent Brother Yu a guard for a few days."
"Pei Hongce's relatives? Trouble, Wenxi Pei's family is Ding Xingwang, and Pei Hongce's nephew has eight hundred if not one thousand. How can we further analyze his identity?" Li Er was a little worried, so he had to ask again: "How dare you ask Liang? Young master, where is the family name, and the elders of the family hold any position in the court?"
Chen Yingliang was a little embarrassed. Chai Qian, who had never thought about rolling in bed with Chen Yingliang, rescued her ex-fiancé, and interrupted: "Erlang, you can ask about other people's identities, can you ask later? Now help me get them." How can I find that little thief Chen Yingliang and bring him back to avenge me!"
Chen Yingliang took the opportunity to close his mouth, and peeked at Yang Yuer, only to find that Yang Yuer happened to be secretly looking at him again, and even stuck out his lilac tongue, making a playful and cute grimace, as if laughing at himself for being friends with the enemy's family, cute and delicate The appearance made Chen Yingliang, who had been uneasy and kind to Yang Yuer for a long time, even more excited. He just wished he could immediately woo Suo Huan to Yang Yuer, get a room at the hotel immediately like in the 21st century, and then exchange QQ numbers and WeChat accounts to facilitate the next sex date.
"Sister Qian, it's not that I don't want to help you." Li Er said helplessly: "There is really no way, Daxing City is so big, we are looking for your enemy Chen Yingliang, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack. How do we find it? Instead of wasting our efforts, we should wait for news from Daxing County, they have a lot of people and are familiar with the folk situation, and the hope of finding Chen Yingliang is far greater than ours."
Yang Yu'er also glanced at Chen Yingliang quietly, and said in her heart: "Don't look for it, it's far away in the sky, and it's close at hand."
"Don't count on those bastards in Daxing County!" Chai Qian said angrily, "My brother went to the county government this morning to sit in town, and brought a bunch of servants who had seen the little thief to help, but up to now, I haven't even seen that little thief! Those gangsters, maybe that little thief Chen Yingliang slipped out of the city right under their noses, and they can't catch them either!"
"But how do we find it? We don't even know what that little thief looks like." Li Er smiled wryly. Tell me, the more detailed the better, I'll see if there's any way I can find out..."
"Erlang!" Li Jiancheng suddenly interrupted the second brother, gave the second brother a wink, and then turned to Chai Qian and said, "Sister Qian'er, it's not that the elder brother said that you brothers and sisters, you brothers and sisters have gone too far this time. Well, for the sake of personal enmity, the government officers were used to search the whole city. Once this matter spreads, not only the reputation of your brothers and sisters will be damaged, but Lord Chejun will also be implicated. Listen to Brother Yu's advice, forget about this matter, and that Since Chen Yingliang has escaped, let him go, stop pestering him, and be careful that both sides will suffer in the future."
"Li Jiancheng is a good man." The person involved, Chen Yingliang, praised secretly, and said in his heart: "If the Chai family is willing to listen to his advice, at least they will not die too badly in the future."
"Forget it?!" Chai Qian, who hated Chen Yingliang so much that her chest ached, was furious, and said angrily, "That little thief ruined my innocence like this, and you still say forget it? Why don't you chop that little thief up with your own hands?" , it’s hard to get rid of the hatred in my heart!”
Li Jiancheng's face was a bit ugly, but with outsiders present, Li Jiancheng was too embarrassed to quarrel with his relatives, so he turned to Chen Yingliang and Yang Yu'er, forced a smile and said, "Miss Yang, Mr. Liang, I made you laugh. This is my younger sister." If you are hot-tempered and spoiled by the elders, you must never mind."
"It's okay, I'm used to it." Yang Yu'er smiled sweetly, her expression was extremely touching.
"It's a small matter." Chen Yingliang also smiled slightly, and said with a pun in his words: "Of course it's best for a lady to be dignified and gentle, and it's only natural for a few to have a little temper. Miss Yang, don't you think so?"
Yang Yuer kept her mouth shut and did not dare to make a sound, Chai Qian glared at Chen Yingliang, who was already disliked, and Li Jiancheng secretly praised Chen Yingliang for his temperament and demeanor. Well, it's really rare to see such rich and powerful children with a city mansion.
At this time, the food and wine had already been brought into the private room, and the dishes were as delicate and delicious as in the legends. Chai Qian, who had been running around searching for enemies for more than half a day, was already so hungry that her chest was pressed against her back, and she ate and drank unceremoniously When she got up, Yang Yuer, who was also hungry, ate in a gentle manner, her movements were elegant and charming, and she felt itchy in Chen Yingliang, who was chatting and clinking glasses with Li Jiancheng.
Chen Yingliang was sizing up Yang Yuer secretly, and Li Shimin next to him was also quietly observing Chen Yingliang, because Li Shimin had long discovered that Chen Yingliang's appearance seemed to be somewhat similar to the portraits of wanted warrants plastered all over the city today, but even if Li Jiancheng hacked Li Shimin to death instead, Li Shimin would He didn't dare to think that Liang Cheng, a distinguished guest of the Wei Mansion and Yang Yu'er's friend in front of him, was Chen Yingliang, the big enemy of his brother-in-law's family and poor boy! With some doubts and curiosity, Li Shimin asked Chen Yingliang in a roundabout way: "Young Master Liang, I haven't asked you where you came from and when did you arrive in Daxing?"
"Come from Luoyang, the eastern capital, and arrived in Daxing the day before yesterday." Chen Yingliang said casually, "Uncle Li Guogong sent me to Daxing to do some private matters, because Yang Ni's rebellion had just subsided, and the road was not peaceful enough, so I borrowed from General Xie." I got some soldiers to serve as my guards."
"Come from Luoyang, the eastern capital?" Li Jiancheng's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Young Master Liang, have you seen the Chen Jishi who became famous in the Eastern Capital War? It is the Chen Jifu from the Zanzhi Mansion in Henan Province." In the recording room, people gave him the nickname Xiao Chen Qingzhi."
"Of course I have." Chen Yingliang smiled and said, "Brother Jiancheng, have you forgotten? My uncle Li Guogong is Henan Zanzhi, and that Chen Jishi is also my uncle's confidant!"
There is no place to find, and it takes no effort to get here. Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin brothers who obeyed their father's orders and were preparing to win over someone with all their strength were immediately overjoyed, and their attitude towards Chen Yingliang was suddenly a bit polite, and they asked in unison: " Mr. Liang, what is the full name of that Chen Jishi? Where is he from? What is his family background?"
"Brother Jiancheng, Brother Shimin, what are you... why are you concerned about these things?" Chen Yingliang was a little at a loss, he really didn't know that the Li family brothers would be so interested in him.
"It's nothing, I'm just curious about the situation of this little Chen Qingzhi, so I'll ask a few more questions, and please tell me the truth." Li Jiancheng replied with a smile.
Glancing at Yang Yu'er, seeing that Yang Yu'er was paying attention to the conversation between himself and Li Jiancheng, Chen Yingliang, who didn't notice that Chai Qian was actually listening, suddenly regained his spirits, and said without blushing: "What's the name of that Chen Jishi? I don't know, because his nickname of Little Chen Qingzhi is so famous that everyone in Luoyang calls him that, so I also call him that, but I haven't carefully inquired about his real name. I don't know his family background. It's too clear, I only know his history before and after several battles in the Eastern Capital, and I have personally seen his majesty on the battlefield!"
"Really? Brother, please come quickly." This is what Li Jiancheng was most interested in, so he hurriedly urged him, and even filled Chen Yingliang's empty wine glass with his own hands.
It was not easy to get a chance to show off in front of his crush. As a normal man, Chen Yingliang certainly tried his best to brag about it. As a third party outsider, he boasted about his already strong record even more. Tough, emphatically boasting that he is invincible on the battlefield, wise and brave, calm and calm, invulnerable to swords and guns, graceful, graceful, admired by girls, envied by men... . In the end, what made Chen Yingliang happy was that Yang Yu'er not only listened to his self-boasting, but also asked, "Mr. Liang, how old is that Chen Jishi who is known as the little Chen Qingzhi?"
"About your age." Chen Yingliang hurriedly replied: "Miss Yang, that Chen Jishi is about the same age as you, not much older. I heard that he is not married or engaged, so my uncle Li Guogong often regrets not having one." Daughter, otherwise, my uncle would have recruited him as his son-in-law long ago."
"So young?" Yang Yu'er was a little surprised.
"So young?" Brothers Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin were even more surprised, and then Li Shimin, who had the best relationship with his sister Li Xiuning and knew some things, glanced at Chai Qian, who was also listening intently. It's a good deal for that little Chen Qingzhi to recruit a son-in-law and make him a side branch of my Li Clan."
"That's right, that young and handsome man from Chen Ji's office is really unbelievable." Chen Yingliang sighed, and rarely blamed himself: "So my uncle often blames me, scolding me for being ignorant and wasting time, that's all. At an advanced age, I still can’t achieve anything without writing or writing.”
"Brother, please don't say that." Li Jiancheng took over the conversation and said with a wry smile: "You are scolding me by saying that. Brother Yu is much older than you, and he doesn't even have a formal official position. It's a waste of time." It would be more accurate to scold me."
After the wry smile, Li Jiancheng couldn't wait to say to Chen Yingliang: "My dear brother, since you know Chen Jishi and have the relationship with Li Guogong, I heard that Chen Jishi will stay with the guard and wait for him. Would you like to introduce one or two for Brother Yu, let Brother Yu also look up at the peerless demeanor of Chen Jishi, and express his admiration face to face?"
"No problem, I'll leave it to my younger brother." Chen Yingliang agreed without hesitation—Chen Yingliang's first impression of Li Jiancheng was quite good, and at the same time, just in case, Chen Yingliang was also happy to make friends with the final victor in history.
Li Jiancheng was overjoyed, he quickly thanked Chen Yingliang, and took the initiative to say: "Brother Yu, brother Yu lives in the nearby Wubenfang, which is not far from the mansion where Wei stayed behind. If you have time, brother Yu, you can come to Brother Yu's house at any time , Brother Yu must walk backwards to greet you, and by the way, introduce Brother Yu’s wife and several younger sisters to Brother Yu.”
"Sister?" Chen Yingliang's eyes flashed, and he suddenly remembered that several of Lao Li's daughters in the legend were of good quality, so he cupped his hands and said, "Then be respectful and obedient, and when my younger brother finishes his uncle's job well, I will definitely come to your elder brother's house." visit."
Li Jiancheng nodded with a smile, and Chen Yingliang, who has always been greedy, turned to Yang Yuer again, and asked with a smile: "Miss Yang, I wonder if you are interested in meeting that little Chen Qingzhi Chen Jishi? If Miss Yang is willing, I can also do it for you at that time." You introduce."
"This..." Yang Yu'er hesitated for a moment, then smiled lightly and said, "Okay, if I have a chance, I also want to meet the legendary little Chen Qingzhi, and see if he is really as invincible as the rumors say."
Chen Yingliang was overjoyed, nodded quickly, patted his chest and promised to introduce Yang Yuer, but unfortunately, Chai Qian, who almost had a bed with Chen Yingliang, stepped forward to spread hatred, and asked Yang Yuer very puzzled: "Meet little Chen Qingzhi? Didn't you say , is your father coming back soon? When did you come to see him? "
"The team left behind by Wei has to arrive first, and my father will return to Daxing for a while, why don't I have time?" Yang Yuer asked back with her cute little mouth.
"Since you have time, come with me and continue to catch that little thief!" Chai Qian brought up the old matter again, and urged: "Hurry up, have you all finished eating? Go away quickly after eating, don't let that little thief Chen Yingliang Ran!"
With Chai Qian, who is good at inciting hatred, constantly urging them, the time that Chen Yingliang and Yang Yuer could get along with each other after finally meeting again was naturally greatly shortened. While Chen Yingliang was gnashing his teeth angrily, Yang Yuer put down his chopsticks not long after, and before he had time Putting down the bowl, Chai Qian had already pulled Yang Yu'er up, and was about to leave the restaurant to catch Chen Yingliang, but she didn't notice that her former fiancé, Chen Yingliang, wanted to eat her alive. Yang Yuer reluctantly accepted the request of her best friend, Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin were also forced by Chai Qian to arrest people together, and the short gathering ended.
Full of anger and dissatisfaction, Yang Yuer, Chai Qian and others were sent out of the restaurant gate. To Chen Yingliang's surprise, Yang Yuer didn't know what she had said to Chai Qian and the Li family brothers, but ran back in front of Chen Yingliang quickly. Then, before Chen Yingliang came back to his senses, Yang Yu'er said in a low voice: "You go, leave Daxing as soon as possible, the sooner the better, Duke Chejun is determined to take revenge on you, I can't stop it, I can only do it for you Cover up this time."
After finishing speaking, Yang Yu'er turned around and left. Chen Yingliang was tongue-tied at first, then his blood boiled, and he hurriedly called out: "Miss Yang, please wait."
Yang Yu'er stopped in her tracks, but did not turn her head. Chen Yingliang mustered up her courage, and whispered behind her: "Miss Yang, since we met last time, I have been thinking about you and thinking about you often."
After hearing Chen Yingliang's rare words from the heart, Yang Yu'er turned her back to Chen Yingliang and didn't know the expression on her face. She just fell silent for a while, and then walked away. Chen Yingliang was extremely disappointed, but she wasn't too surprised, because Chen Yingliang It is clear that in the Sui Dynasty, when the imperial examinations had just appeared, the distance between the aristocratic family and the poor family was still extremely huge, and the status gap between Yang Yuer and Chen Yingliang was even more like a chasm.
Disappointed, he watched Yang Yuer and the others leave. After a long time, Chen Yingliang returned to the restaurant at the request of Zhao Cheng, Yu Le and the others—while walking in frustration, he almost knocked over the takeaway that the waiter in Guangjulou was carrying. Chen Yingliang led Zhao Cheng and Yu Le to visit the Daxing Imperial City, and walked around until the sun set. Return to Chongyifang via the most famous Zhuque Street in Daxing.
During this period, although a wave of officials noticed that Chen Yingliang seemed to resemble the portrait of the arrest warrant, but before they could meet Chen Yingliang for interrogation, the servants of Wei's mansion came forward and only said that Chen Yingliang was a distinguished guest of the old Wei's family, and these officials immediately nodded and bowed their heads. He sent off Chen Yingliang and his party with smiles all over their faces.
Maybe it's fate, more likely it's fate. When Chen Yingliang and his party came to Kaihuafang and were about to turn east to Chongyifang, Zhao Cheng suddenly pulled Chen Yingliang's sleeve, pouted in a direction on Zhuque Street, and whispered Said: "Chen Jishi, look, start with that pretty girl in red."
Chen Yingliang turned his head in surprise, and sure enough, he saw his former fiancée, Chai Qian, wandering on Zhuque Street with a sword in her hand, still looking at the passers-by, but Yang Yuer, Li Jiancheng brothers and others had disappeared, and they didn't know where to go. got there. Immediately afterwards, Chai Qian also happened to see Chen Yingliang and the others, and once again met Chen Yingliang's eyes, and their eyes collided.
Something happened that made Chen Yingliang quite angry. After seeing her ex-fiancé who looked like a dog and was very eye-catching, when Chen Yingliang took the initiative to salute, Chai Qian turned her mouth away in a haughty manner and walked forward arrogantly. , not to mention the due etiquette, he refused to even say hello to his former fiancé. Seeing this scene, Chen Yingliang, who originally didn't bother to pay attention to Chai Qian, couldn't help feeling angry, so he left Zhao Cheng and the others and hurried forward, caught up with Chai Qian and cupped his hands and said, "Miss Chai, we meet again."
"What's the matter?" Chai Qian was expressionless, her attitude towards Chen Yingliang was extremely indifferent.
"It's nothing, I just want to ask, where has Miss Yang gone?" Chen Yingliang directly asked his fiancée about the whereabouts of other girls, but he also beat Chen Shimei to set a shining example for the old Chen family.
"Don't you know her? What time is it, why isn't she going home?" Chai Qian asked unceremoniously, and walked straight ahead past Chen Yingliang.
"Smelly girl, you really deserve to be Chai Shao's younger sister. She is so proud." Chen Yingliang snorted coldly in his heart. After hesitating for a while, Chen Yingliang turned to Chai Qian's back and said, "Miss Chai, I have met Chen Yingliang."
Chai Qian's footsteps stopped suddenly, and then, Chai Qian turned around quickly, and asked in surprise: "Have you seen that little thief Chen Yingliang? Where have you seen it?"
"It doesn't matter where I met you, anyway, I did." This time, Chen Yingliang's attitude was cold, "I just want to ask you, will Miss Yang accompany you to find Chen Yingliang tomorrow?"
"She agreed." Chai Qian nodded quickly.
"Then do you mind, I will accompany you to find that Chen Yingliang tomorrow?" Chen Yingliang said with a smile: "Adding a monkey will add three points of strength, not to mention me as a living person? Anyway, I have some time tomorrow. If you want, I will Tomorrow, I can help you find Chen Yingliang, and if there is one more person who knows Chen Yingliang to help you go, it will be more hopeful, right?"
