When facing Mr. Lin in the National Education College, even when facing his master Shang Xingzhou, or in Xueling, elsewhere, until last night when facing the second master of the Tang family in the Dao Palace, whenever he met those Chen Changsheng would always think of that friend when he was talking about important people and elders who were depressing.
That was the first friend he met after he came to Kyoto from Xining Town, and it could be said to be the first friend in his life.
The acquaintance between him and that friend was actually somewhat inexplicable. It was the time when Tiandao Academy recruited students. Many candidates who had successfully washed their marrow and even sat in the state were waiting in line to be tested. He still didn't know what cultivation was. The genius boy said he was also a genius. That boy went to the Liziyuan Inn, found Chen Changsheng, had a meal, and then the two became friends, it was that simple.
That friend is Tang Tang.
At that time, he was ranked thirty-sixth on the Qingyun list, so he changed his name to Tang Thirty-six.
From then to now, the Qingyun list and the point star list have been changed many times, and his ranking is naturally changing, but he has never changed his name again, or it is because of his favorite youth. Li has always lived under the name Tang Thirty-Six.
The reason why Chen Changsheng often thinks of Tang Thirty-Six and miss Tang Thirty-Six is not only because he is his friend, but also because Tang Thirty-Six has always played a very important role for him and the Orthodox Academy. Characters, things that he, Su Moyu, Zhexiu, and Xuanyuan Po are not good at, Tang Thirty-Six is very good at. If they can't say it, Tang Thirty-Six can easily say it, and they are embarrassed to do it The thing is, Tang Thirty-Six has never known what it means to lose face.
In other words, it was precisely because of Tang Sanshiliu's existence that he and the Orthodox Academy were able to live so easily and smoothly during those few years in the capital.
Tang Thirty-Six is the person who can make his own people happy and his opponents painful.
Because he is the only grandson of the Tang family, he is very rich and has no taboos, especially after joining the Orthodox Academy, he has never played the role of a noble son again, he is extremely flamboyant, extremely arrogant, flirtatious and unparalleled, and has scolded and cried in the Shinto Little girl, after kicking the disabled in Baihua Lane, there is nothing he dare not do.
He possessed those things that Chen Changsheng lacked the most.
That is the true blood, youth, and self hidden under Feiyang's arrogance and frivolity.
It has been three years since Tang Sanshiliu was forcibly taken away from the capital and returned to Wenshui during the Tianshu Mausoleum incident.
Except for the two and a half years in the old house, he has been imprisoned in the ancestral hall for half a year.
Those flamboyant and frivolous things seem to be gone.
Those hot-blooded youthful selves are even more missing.
He was disheveled, unkempt, dirty clothes, dull eyes, like a dead person, shut his mouth, like a mute.
Only numbness and lifelessness can be seen on his body, which means giving up and despair.
Anyone who saw him now would probably think he was a beggar or an ascetic.
No one can connect him with the noble son who stood among the flowers and received the admiring gazes of countless girls in Kyoto.
But Chen Changsheng wouldn't, because he knew his friend better than anyone else, and he trusted his friend better than anyone else.
He believed that even if he found that the sun had sunk into the abyss and could no longer get up, and the world was about to be destroyed, Tang Thirty-Six would not hide in bed and cry, but would call all the red ladies in the capital to hold an open meeting , and then took those young people who he felt qualified to fight with him, with an unimaginable amount of gold and silver treasures and several carts of blue lobsters, and rode the fastest horse towards the place where the sun set. The sky kept swearing the dirtiest words and singing the stupidest songs.
If Chen Changsheng saw the picture in the ancestral hall, he would know that his thoughts were correct, and his worries were unnecessary—he told the second master of the Tang family last night in the Daoist Hall that he was very worried about Tang Thirty-Six Is there a good futon in the ancestral hall, and will my knees be hurt by kneeling for too long
Tang Thirty-Six did not kneel at all.
No matter how lonely his figure was, no matter how unkempt, no matter how lifeless his figure was, he did not kneel anyway.
Instead of kneeling on the futon, he sat on it.
And it is sitting in the skip.
It's the most indecent sitting position.
His legs are spread wide, with his crotch facing the... countless tablets in front of him.
Those tablets are the ancestors of the Tang family, his ancestors.
so what
If you want to shut me down, then don't expect me to respect you.
…
…
Tang Thirty-Six, of course, was still the previous Tang Thirty-Six.
Yes, after being imprisoned in the ancestral hall, he was completely cut off from the outside world, let alone being unable to write letters to Chen Changsheng, or having no one to talk to him.
According to Old Master Tang's order, no one was allowed to talk to him, and there was no one in the ancestral hall except for a dumb servant who was in charge of sweeping the courtyard.
That is to say, from that day on, Tang Thirty-Six stopped talking.
The so-called silent resistance, no one can do it more thoroughly than him.
Not being able to know the news from the outside world, not knowing how his father's illness is, and how his mother is, is of course very worrying.
But it also gave Tang Thirty-Six enough time to think and practice.
Either because the ancestral hall was too quiet and no one disturbed him, or because his father's condition worsened and he was about to die, it took him only half a day to think clearly. The matter—the reason why the old man did it.
What is the most famous thing in the hundreds of years that Mrs. Tang has been in charge of the family
It's his eyes.
Whether it was Su Li back then or Wang Po later, they had already proved that Mrs. Tang possessed a pair of discerning eyes that could recognize people.
Later, Mrs. Tang gave the yellow paper umbrella to Chen Changsheng, who was about to enter the Zhou Garden. Naturally, it was not just because of the friendship between Chen Changsheng and Tang Sanshiliu, but because Mrs. Tang valued Chen Changsheng as much as Su Li and Wang Po. , and this investment has great benefits in strengthening the relationship between the Tang family and the state religion.
Why did he suddenly change his mind
First of all, Mrs. Tang and Shang Xingzhou are true comrades-in-arms, and they have a secret friendship that has lasted for hundreds of years.
At first, he acquiesced in Tang Sanshiliu's friendship with Chen Changsheng, and secretly helped the Orthodox Academy, largely because Chen Changsheng was a student of Shang Xingzhou.
Now that Chen Changsheng and Shang Xingzhou were strangers to each other, Mrs. Tang naturally had to consider which side to support.
From the perspective of the Tang family, the problem Mr. Tang wants to solve is the ownership of the inheritance rights.
Shang Xingzhou and the imperial court supported Erfang.
Chen Changsheng and the state religion undoubtedly supported the long house.
In the change of Tianshu Mausoleum, the performance of the second master of the Tang family was very outstanding, and Tang Thirty-Six knew better that the coldness and toughness of the second uncle were far more appreciated by the old man than his father's gentle way at the beginning. His father was already seriously ill and there was no cure for it. If he chose the eldest house, he would choose Tang Thirty-Six.
