Since Gu Changgeng met Lin Feng, he never thought about Lin Feng's identity as Xianyang Lin Feng.
The reason is simple. Lin Feng, who is good at poetry, lives in Xianyang.
But Gu Changgeng didn't expect that Lin Feng came from Xianyang.
Lu Yi also looked over, with a curious look in his eyes. Lu Yi has always been curious about Lin Feng, because Lin Feng's speech and behavior are extremely extraordinary. Putting aside Lin Feng's martial arts, Lu Yi couldn't understand Lin Feng's speaking and knowledge alone.
Now, Gu Changgeng exposed it.
Lu Yi also wanted to know if this Lin Feng was the other Lin Feng?
Lin Feng chuckled and said, "It's indeed me."
Gu Changgeng suddenly became excited and said excitedly: "Brother Lin, it's so hard for you to hide this from me! Along the way, we often mentioned your poems, but you never mentioned them. I just met Brother Xie, and he said that you never mentioned it. It was only after I came to Xianyang that I had my guess."
Lin Feng smiled and said: "You didn't ask, why should I say it specifically?"
Gu Changgeng's expression of joy was beyond words, but in the blink of an eye, his handsome face fell down, looking helpless.
Lu Yidao: "What's wrong with Brother Gu?"
Gu Changgeng sighed and said: "My father has always taught us to respect teachers and Taoism. Especially people from the lineage of Master Xun, we must be more respectful. Brother Lin is a disciple of Master Xun and the younger brother of my master, Han Qianqiu and Mr. Han." . This means that Brother Lin is my great uncle."
"Junior, I have met my uncle."
Gu Changgeng put his hands together and bowed to Lin Feng.
Lu Yi and Xie Xuan were both stunned.
Immediately, both of them burst into laughter. Everyone is a figure in the circle of young masters from aristocratic families. Now it feels strange to see Gu Changgeng saluting Lin Feng and calling him uncle.
Lin Feng nodded and said: "Brother Gu, you and I can do our own thing."
Gu Changgeng's head shook like a rattle, and he said sternly: "Uncle Master, this is not okay. If this really happens, if my father finds out, I'm afraid he will be beaten to death. It doesn't matter, it's an honor for me to be with Uncle Master. .”
Lin Feng smiled and said, "It's up to you."
Xie Xuan took the words and said: "Xian brother, I have prepared good wine and food at Qifeng Tower in the city to welcome you. Let's go back to Jinling City. Lu Yi and Gu Changgeng, come together."
"please!"
Lin Feng nodded slightly.
The group of people drove on in a carriage and entered Jinling City within a short time.
Compared with Xianyang City, Jinling City cannot surpass Xianyang in terms of majesty, and Xianyang City is even more magnificent and solid. However, here in Jinling City, there is an endless stream of people coming and going, there are many caravans coming and going, and it is extremely prosperous.
This is the political and economic center of the entire Jin State.
After Lin Feng saw it, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. This is the commercial gap between Jin and Qin, as well as the economic disparity. The Kingdom of Jin is located in a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, with developed water systems and prosperous commerce. It is a good place that countless people yearn for.
The carriage went straight into the city and stopped at Qifeng Tower in the south of Jinling City.
This is a brothel.
There is even a river path downstairs of Qifeng Tower. Looking down from the second floor of Qifeng Tower, you can see small boats on the river, traveling along the river in the city, and the scenery is unique.
In Jinling City, Qifeng Tower is also ranked among the top five, so there are many scholars in Qifeng Tower.
Xie Xuan took Lin Feng and his party out of the carriage and went straight to the private room on the second floor of Qifeng Tower. This elegant room is right next to the window. Not only can you see the scenery on the river outside Qifeng Tower, but you can also see the singers dancing and singing in the lobby of Qifeng Tower.
It's an excellent location.
A group of people, the host and the guests took their seats.
Xie Xuan looked delighted and said with a smile: "Brother Xian, this elegant room we are in has one of the few good seats. I had to say hello in advance to make a reservation."
"Today, you are not only blessed with your mouth, but also with your ears. You can drink the fine wine of the Jin Kingdom, and you can listen to the singing voices of my Jiangnan women. Especially our Jiangnan women, our bodies are soft and extremely pleasant. This is different from the fierce women in the northwest of the Qin Dynasty. different."
"Brother Xian is playing in Qifeng Tower today. Just let him go. I'll take care of everything."
Xie Xuan was extremely heroic and said: "It's rare that my worthy brother arrives in Jinling. I must fulfill my friendship as a landlord."
Lin Feng chuckled and said, "Thank you, brother."
"Come, have a glass of wine first."
Xie Xuan picked up the wine bottle in front of him, looked at Lin Feng, Lu Yi and Gu Changgeng from afar, and said with a smile: "Please."
"please!"
Lin Feng and the others raised their wine bottles in return.
All drank in one gulp.
Xie Xuan's eyes fell on Lin Feng and continued: "Brother, come to Jinling. Although you have things to do, you don't have to leave in a hurry. There are many good places in Jinling City, with beautiful scenery, delicious food, and listening Qu, there are many literati gathering, there are also martial arts competitions, everything is there. Only what you can’t think of, there is nothing that Jinling can’t find.”
Lin Feng said: "In this case, I would like to take a closer look."
Gu Changgeng and Lu Yi looked at each other.
The two of them had heard from Lin Feng before. Lin Feng said that he came to Jinling to do business, but now it seems that this is not the case. It's just that what Xie Xuan just said was not clear, and the two of them didn't understand it clearly.
Gu Changgeng and Lu Yi didn't ask, they just exchanged glasses with Lin Feng and Xie Xuan.
The atmosphere is quite warm.
At this time, Lu Yi took the initiative to stand up and said: "Brother Xie, Brother Lin, I have something to do, so I will go ahead. Thank you for your hospitality. I will invite brother Xie to a banquet in the future."
Gu Changgeng also stood up and said: "I have returned to Jinling and I have to go home first. As for my uncle, after you are done, ask someone to lead the way to Gu's house. I will sweep the bed and wait for you. Now my uncle has arrived in Jinling. , the Gu family should fulfill their duties as landlords."
Both of them resigned.
Both of them are young masters of big families, and they both know that there must be important matters to discuss between Xie Xuan and Lin Feng.
If they are around, things will be difficult to discuss.
So after three rounds of wine and five tastes of food, it was almost done, so I took the initiative to leave.
Xie Xuan and Lin Feng stood up to see each other off, then sat down again. Lin Feng took the initiative and said, "Brother Xie, please return to Jinling City first. Have you ever mentioned Xifengzui's management to the Xie family?"
Xie Xuan nodded and said: "I have already mentioned to my brother Xie Jun that he is my father's eldest son. Now that my father is old, my brother is responsible for many things in the Xie family, and he will report directly to his father."
Lin Feng frowned slightly.
Xie Jun!
There is one more link.
If we could directly contact Xie Chong, the head of the Xie family, things would be simpler. Now that Xie Jun is in the middle, there are some variables mixed in.
Xie Chong was nearly sixty years old and served as the Minister of the Jin State and the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. The emperor allowed Xie Chong to open the three departments of Yitong. In the Jin Dynasty, Xie Chong had great power and was equivalent to the prime minister.
If Xie Chong proposes that Jin stop attacking Qin, things will naturally be much simpler.
Now, it is Xie Jun who takes the lead in threading the thread.
Lin Feng said: "Brother Xie, how is your relationship with Brother Ling?"
Xie Xuan said: "It's not bad, after all, I mostly work in Daqin. However, my brother handles things fairly, and he is quite prestigious in the family. After all, he is almost forty years old, and he is old enough to be responsible for the Xie family's affairs."
Lin Feng was still a little worried and asked, "When will there be results?"
Xie Xuan said: "The results will be available within two days at most."
Lin Feng nodded and said: "Okay, just wait for two more days. After all, there is still plenty of time."
"The people of Da Qin are all barbarians."
Suddenly, a deep and resonant voice came from the lobby.
After Lin Feng heard this, he frowned.
The protagonist is from the Xia Kingdom, but Lin Feng traveled through time and lived in Da Qin. In Da Qin, he gained the emperor's trust, and even married Bai Yuyao, so he had already taken root in the Qin State.
Lin Feng already regarded himself as a Qin person.
This is the integration of identity.
Just like that, when Lin Feng heard the words in the lobby, he stood up and walked to the window, overlooking the lobby.
I saw a tall middle-aged man standing on the stage where the singer was dancing. At this time, the singer had already retired. A middle-aged man in a brocade robe looked around and said loudly: "Our vast country of Jin is so vast. It can be said that it has a vast land, abundant resources, and outstanding people."
"But now there are many Qin people in Jin. These Qin people are all barbarians and vulgar people. In my opinion, they are similar to, or even different from, the barbarians of Yan State on the northwest grasslands. Any difference."
"The people of the Yan Kingdom treat their hair like hair and drink their blood. Their sons marry their mothers, and their sons rob their sisters. This happens all the time, and is even commonplace."
"This is not uncommon in Qin State."
"To the outside world, Da Qin said that it is a country that imitates etiquette. Even if it is not a state of etiquette, it is actually barbarians."
"In my opinion, all these relatives in the Jin State should be expelled. These people in the Jin State have affected our Jin State, making the sky in the Jin State not so blue."
The middle-aged man waved his sleeves and said: "Qin people should get out of Jin."
"well said."
In the lobby, there were people shouting in agreement.
The sound came one after another.
Lin Feng's face turned completely cold when he heard these words. The same was true for Gao Xiaoyu and Yingwu on the side. They were both from Qin, but when they were slandered and scolded by Jin people, they were so angry that they wanted to kill someone.
Lin Feng took a deep breath and said, "Brother Xie, let me go down and deal with it, and then I'll drink with you."
"My dear brother, wait a moment."
Xie Xuan quickly reached out to stop him.
He looked a little embarrassed and said: "In Qifeng Tower, people will give speeches to explain their personal opinions. This is just a debate between scholars. This matter is definitely a coincidence and not my arrangement. Besides, this is My business is just to gain attention, my dear brother, don’t worry about it.”
Lin Feng looked serious and said, "Brother Xie, I have to go down and deal with it."
Xie Xuandao: "You should know that this is a critical period for the negotiations between Qin and Jin. Now it is better to do less than to do more. Try to be less nosy and keep a low profile."
Lin Feng said: "When it comes to the honor and disgrace of Da Qin, it is not a trivial matter, it is a matter of the face of Da Qin. Da Qin must not be humiliated!"
Xie Xuandao: "This is a matter for the Qin people. You are from the Xia country and it has nothing to do with you."
Lin Feng shook his head and said loudly: "I am from Qin. Lin Feng, who was from Xia in the past, has died long ago. Now that I am in Qin, I am from Qin. What's more, I married a wife and settled down in Da Qin. Establish a career.”
"Da Qin is my home."
"How can I sit back and ignore my family when someone insults them? In the lobby right now, someone is slandering Da Qin and humiliating the people of Da Qin. If I sit back and ignore them, am I still a Qin person?"
"If I didn't see it, that's it. Now that I have seen it and heard it, I have to explain it to them and let them know that Da Qin is not that kind of country, and the people of Da Qin are not people who drink blood from their hair."
"If you don't dare to stand up even if your mother country is humiliated and despised. Then do people like me deserve Brother Xie's cooperation? If your mother country is humiliated and you are not willing to defend it, can you expect others to defend it? "
"If you don't even argue for yourself, why should others respect you, and why should others respect Da Qin?"
"The people of Qin, our people, are constantly striving for self-improvement and never complain about others. Therefore, they cannot be slandered out of thin air. Brother Xie, please don't stop me in this matter."
For Lin Feng, when he traveled through time, he was traveling through Da Qin. Although the owner is said to be from the Xia Kingdom, Lin Feng has no sense of belonging to the Xia Kingdom. He is from Qin.
So, he must stand up.
When Gao Xiaoyu and Ying Wuyi heard this, their eyes sparkled with excitement.
Lin Feng said it very well.
Xie Xuan looked at Lin Feng who was determined, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and said: "My dear brother, what you said is reasonable, and I can't argue with it. My dear brother, be careful with everything."
Lin Feng nodded solemnly. He knew what he should do and what he should not do.
Da Qin’s face must be maintained.
This is Lin Feng’s homeland today.
Lin Feng bowed to Xie Xuan, stood up, left the private room, and went straight to the lobby. He came to the lobby downstairs of Qifeng Tower. Hearing the echoes of the Jin scholars around him, he went straight forward.
Lin Feng came to the audience, looked at the high-spirited middle-aged man on the stage, and criticized: "Your Excellency's words are nonsense. Qin people are pragmatic and truth-seeking, and do things down-to-earth. Is it hindering you from eating? Is it hindering you? Have you seen it?"
"You are a rotten scholar, looking for trouble when nothing happens, criticizing Qin everywhere. You should be self-aware and don't say arrogant things just to win attention."
The middle-aged man's name was Fu Rong. He said in a deep voice: "Boy, who are you?"
The surrounding scholars also looked over.
In the lobby of Qifeng Tower, there are often debates, whether about classics, Buddhism or Taoism, or even poetry contests. Scholars were all excited about such debates, because this was what everyone liked to watch.
A pair of eyes fell on Lin Feng.
Waiting for Lin Feng's response.
Lin Feng stepped onto the stage. He took a breath and said loudly: "Lin Feng, a scholar of the Great Qin Dynasty, heard what your Excellency said and came here to ask for advice."
