Linque

Chapter 44 The road is narrow

After the rain, the next few days will be sunny.

The Empress Dowager is approaching, and the city lords of the four directions and the princes from all over the world gather in the imperial capital. It is inevitable that there will be some exchanges between the high-ranking families. Even in such a clean place as Luyuan, several banquets have been held for guests in the past few days.

What's more, because of the assassination of the crown prince, Junji Wuyue of Lishan Mountain stayed in the imperial capital for the time being. As soon as the news got out, Luyuan was filled with people coming and going.

Chu Heng accompanied Mu Xiyun to meet a few family friends, but after several consecutive toasts, he no longer wanted to deal with it.

There's no other reason, if it's just a change of drinks, it's all right, but these old friends are all drunkards who don't want to drink, and they want to give him... a kiss.

Dayin folk customs are open, advocating Zhou etiquette, and there are not so many old and outdated rules.Although there are differences between men and women, if the two parents are present, it’s okay for the sons and daughters to meet each other. Dongjun is already established, his family is not yet established, and he happens to be in front of him. The gates line up all the way to the north gate.

The wife of the noble family brought her generous eldest daughter to visit Mu Xiyun. The family has some friendship with Lishan, so if he sits in the flower hall, as long as he is in the dew garden, he will be in love with you. Yu Li has to come over and say a few words.

A family of two Chu Heng could barely handle it, but after too many times, he couldn't sit still, and always felt a little inexplicably guilty, and finally pushed Ye Shuli out who came to the imperial capital to find a wife. A sweet pastry, not to mention the north gate of the imperial capital, but there are always half of the city.

Only then did Chu Heng find time in his room, and the next day he went to visit Xie Chu, the commander of the Emperor's Guards Camp.

When he first came to the imperial capital, he was sent to the Hall of Martial Arts by the Marquis of Zhongping. Ye Jianwei was worried that he would be angered by others in the Hall of Martial Arts, so he specially sent a letter to Xie Chu, asking Commander Xie to take care of him.The letter also said that in the future Junji Wuyue of Lishan Mountain would come to the imperial capital to pay her respects in person. Now that others have come, there is no need to ask for an order to enter the imperial capital. In any case, she should go to thank Commander Xie for his usual care.

Xie Mansion is a house bestowed by His Majesty, it is located on the edge of the imperial city, so it is very recognizable.

It's just that Chu Heng's arrival was unlucky, he dealt with the guests these few days, one head and two big ones, his life was really tormented, he even forgot to remember the days.It was reminded by the guard at the gate of Xie Mansion that Xie Chu, as a military officer of the second rank, could not be absent when there was a grand court meeting in the Xuanzheng Hall every tenth day today.

Commander Xie's wife invited him to drink a cup of tea, sat for a while, and said a few words.

He has been so devastated for the past few days that he has not paid attention to the outside affairs. He only found out when he was talking to Mrs. Xie that the Nanxi Mission had arrived in the imperial capital yesterday afternoon.After the Great Court Meeting today, the palace will hold a banquet in honor of Nan Xi's envoy, and Xie Chu will also attend.

Unfortunately, unfortunately, Chu Heng obviously won't be able to see Commander Xie today, so he can only settle for the next best thing, offer the salute first, and visit another day.

The next day is the twenty-first day of the winter month.

Ye Shuli said that he came to the capital to find a wife, but he was even more impatient than Chu Heng. He only met with Mu Xiyun for a day, so he didn't want to sit down in the dew garden.Early in the morning on Dongyue [-]st, he dragged Chu Heng out as if fleeing for his life.

Ye Shuli hadn't been to the imperial capital a few times before, and he didn't know where to go when he came out of the dew garden. Chu Heng went to the Martial Hero Hall as soon as he returned to Beijing, and he didn't come out of the palace very much on weekdays, so he was no better than Ye Shuli.The two wandered around, and at the end of the day, Chu Heng simply took Ye Shu and left the Mingzheng Martial Arts Hall.

Empress Dowager Qianqiu, young talents from various families in Kyushu all gather in the imperial capital. The nobles are young and aggressive, and always love to compete. Now they all gather together to compete in martial arts.What's more, the palace rewards some prizes every day, which makes this group of vigorous young heroes more competitive and victorious, and the Mingzheng Martial Arts Hall is very lively every day.

Chu Heng and Ye Shuli did it on a whim and did not book a room in advance. When the two came, the martial arts hall was already full.

Lishan Dongjun's iconic mask was recognized by all the aristocratic families in the capital, so when Chu Heng came, he wore a gauze hat, which didn't look very obtrusive in the overcrowded martial arts hall.

The two of them stood in an open space by the stand, and when Chu Heng looked upstairs, he immediately saw many familiar faces.

Xie Chu was probably also afraid that the young man would lose his sense of propriety. He sent all the people in the north and south halls who were idle and had nothing to do to the martial arts hall. Yun Fei and Lu Ji were there, even Gu Yanshi, the martial hero The famous teacher of the hall was also invited.

The moment Chu Heng raised his head, Gu Yanshi happened to look in their direction. Gu Yanshi recognized Ye Shuli, and when he saw Chu Heng wearing a gauze beside him, he immediately knew that Dong Jun was coming.

He hurried down and saw that Chu Heng and Ye Shuli hadn't reserved a seat, so he invited them to the central stand on the second floor to sit down. The waiter served refreshments, and Gu Yan smiled and said, "I invited a friend to the martial arts hall." Come to Juju, I didn't expect to meet the two of you here."

Chu Heng and Ye Shuli looked at each other, the two senior brothers tacitly did not say the reason for coming here in a hurry, Gu Yanshi did not ask any more when he saw this.A few people chatted for a while, and the two sides on the competition stage had already stood still.

But at this moment, the spectators on the corridor on the second floor suddenly leaned towards the two sides at the same time, and neatly gave way to a wide road, and the friend Gu Yanshi had invited finally came slowly.

The man was wearing a luxurious and light brocade cavalry suit, and he walked over from the end of the road that everyone gave way to. A friend turned out to be——

"Xiao, Gao, Min?" Ye Shuli raised his brows lightly, his eyes curved into unfriendly arcs, knocked on the folding fan in his hand, and immediately stood up with a smile.

At the same time, the door of the pavilion opposite was suddenly opened, and someone called: "The waiter—"

Chu Heng heard the sound familiar, and followed the prestige, and saw Xu Shao, the son of Xu Shao who had thought about the past behind closed doors in the Jiayonghou Mansion, came out of it, and happened to have a face-to-face meeting with them.

This is really injustice, home, road, and narrowness.
