Songhe Tower.
Longevity Hall.
The future brother-in-law and the default brother-in-law get along quite harmoniously.
Jiang Yichen expressed his intention directly.
Feng Shan didn't have many reservations about Jiang Yichen.
On the one hand, he affirmed Tingyuge's boldness in taking chestnuts from the fire.
On the one hand, he promised to let Hongchen Inn and Andian intervene in this matter.
Naturally, he also recounted what Tong Gu Xinhun had said about Emperor Jing’s entrustment.
Afterwards, Feng Shan shared his thoughts on Abbot Qingming’s return to Songshan Mountain with three Shaolin gold seals.
Four or five types of possible movements of the Red Sect, the imperial court, and various forces were deduced on the spot.
Among them, the view that the two major forces in the court, headed by the Fifth Marquis and Yu Tian, are likely to reach an agreement again to temporarily relax the "Martial Restriction Order" in order to allow more martial arts masters to join the game, is in line with the inferences of the old man and Luo Piaoling. Coincidentally!
…
…
Sunshine, who felt out of tune with the brothers-in-law in the hall, quietly retreated to the base of the wall.
Unknowingly, the two of them were chatting until lunch time.
The elder brother-in-law who is the master of the family will never neglect his brother-in-law.
With a wave of his hand, he immediately arranged a table of Songhelou's famous signature dishes to entertain Jiang Yichen.
There was a large round table between the two people who were originally only an arm's length apart.
On the round table are crab meal and tofu, squirrel mandarin fish, cherry meat, eel paste with oil, lion head, shredded radish cake, stir-fried tea tree mushroom, Gusu braised duck, water shield and whitebait soup, a total of nine special Subang dishes.
Although the fir tree is "lenient" enough, it is undoubtedly too grand for the food intake of two people.
But according to my uncle, nine dishes means longevity. This is his wish for Leng Mei and Jiang Yichen.
Hearing this, Jiang Yichen felt grateful and his heart skipped a beat.
Even if he didn't bring a greeting gift, how dare he not give face to his uncle?
Once you've come, make peace with it. If you can't escape it, just enjoy it. It's just eating!
The most lively and festive of the nine dishes is undoubtedly the fried eel paste.
Just because the oil in the plate was still making a splash after the eel paste was served, it was very noisy.
However, the color of this oil eel paste is rather dark red, and with the addition of oil and water, it looks really unappealing.
According to Firson's introduction, this dish is oily but not greasy, fresh and delicious, appetizing and healthy, and should be tasted first.
Jiang Yichen followed the good deeds and praised the deliciousness of the eel meat.
There is no squirrel in Squirrel Mandarin Fish.
Instead, the whole mandarin fish is carved with patterns, lightly marinated with seasoning, coated with egg yolk paste, fried until tender in a hot oil pan, and finally poured with hot sweet and sour marinade and served on the plate. It is named after its shape like a squirrel.
But in Jiang Yichen's opinion, what was on the plate was clearly a fried squirrel.
What Jiang Yichen regarded as top quality was the Susu Braised Duck, which was beautifully presented and even looked a bit "bloody".
The duck meat is cooked until its skin turns jujube red, and then poured with marinade. It is bright in color, tender and crispy, sweet and salty, and has a rich marinade aroma.
Jiang Yichen made it clear that he couldn't afford wine, and Feng Shan didn't force it.
The food almost burst Jiang Yichen's belly.
Anyway, after the meal was full, the two started chatting again and again.
The topic started with Leng Mei, who had the closest relationship with the two, and then turned to the situation in the world as the news of the Shaolin Golden Seal continued to ferment.
Jiang Yichen, who was originally unsociable, was able to talk eloquently under the guidance of his uncle.
In just half a day, Jiang Yichen's emotion towards Feng Shan changed from awe to respect, and then to sincere admiration.
In his opinion, if Luo Piaoling is the most thoughtful abacus in the world, then this uncle is the library with the most abundant collection of books in the world.
Luo Piaoling's calculations and planning are superb.
Fir, on the other hand, has a clear understanding of world affairs, and knows almost everything about the world, the court, and the affairs of the world.
Therefore, even without Luo Piaoling's shocking talent, Feng Shan can still follow any clues and pull together a large series of clues to uncover the essence of things.
Thanks to this, many doubts that have been lingering in Jiang Yichen's heart since the Yin and Yang Valley were peeled off one by one in front of Feng Shan, revealing the truth.
In addition, Feng Shan also conducted research on world martial arts.
Not only was he very insightful about the "Yin Feng Gong" and "Wuxian Sitting and Forgetting Mind Method" practiced by Jiang Yichen, but he also gave some guidance on the essence of practice.
He even had a good understanding of Jiang Yichen's current Dantian weaknesses and lack of killer moves, and made reliable and feasible suggestions.
Jiang Yichen was completely impressed by Fir, but little did he know that this was a generous gift prepared by his uncle Gothic for advice.
So much so that Jiang Yichen almost ignored his face and begged for two or three housekeeping skills from Feng Shan.
Finally, it was Fengshan's showdown. In addition to being one of the top masters in the world in terms of perception and self-protection, Jiang Yichen had no choice but to give up.
Despite this, Jiang Yichen is still willing to call his uncle a "know-it-all".
The last person who Jiang Yichen thought deserved this title was Bao Daqing.
But compared with the fir trees, the big fat man in Gusu Square pales in comparison.
After all, the person in front of me obviously has the air of a master who has everything in his mind and his wisdom at his fingertips.
The other one looks more like a glib person who lives by deception.
However, these two seemingly incomparable characters were actually one of the twenty-eight constellations selected by Emperor Jing back then.
I have to say that my uncle is right. Although the old emperor was confused sometimes, he also had sharp eyes.
Only at this time, Jiang Yichen would sigh in his heart that God is fair after all.
After opening the door for you, I will also close the window for you.
How many people say that Luo Piaoling's superior intelligence and scheming came about because his muscles and veins were damaged, his martial arts was cut off along the way, and he specialized in tactics, which made him unique.
Feng Shan and the old man are also average. They both have high attainments in intelligence, but have limited talents in martial arts.
It is just too ordinary in one or two aspects, burdened by the lower limit, and the upper limit is not high, which is unsatisfactory.
Among the people Jiang Yichen had met in his life, there were only two exceptions.
One of them was Xiao Yincai, the master of the Yinsha Sect, whom Jiang Yichen had personally learned about the opponent's strength.
At that time, in Longyuan Gorge, without the strong help of the Yuluo tribe, not to mention whether they could successfully rescue Murong Jing or risking Yi Zhongren's life, not many people would be able to escape safely.
This time, Feng Shan specially told him to stay away from him.
The other person, Feng Shan, has never mentioned it, and perhaps has never paid attention to such a number one person.
Xiao Yincai is strong and vicious, but his years are there, and he is the result of years of hard work and hard work.
The other person was obviously no more than thirty years old, but he gave Jiang Yichen a feeling that "literary power can bring peace to the world with pen, but military power can immediately determine the world."
What exactly is that person's background?
…
…
There is no such thing as a banquet that lasts forever. As the red sun sets in the west, no matter how Jiang Yichen and Feng Shan meet, talk and enjoy each other, there will eventually be a time to say goodbye.
Feng Shan knew that time was tight and did not invite Jiang Yichen to have dinner with him.
Farewell, I don’t know when we will meet again.
I don’t even know if Jiang Yichen can bring Leng Mei to meet him.
Fir tree was actually a little sad for this reason.
Therefore, when they parted, the brothers-in-law, who had made a good start, failed to "die well" and broke up somewhat unhappy.
The reason was Feng Shan asked: "Did Xiaomei only tell you about the location of Songhe Tower?"
Jiang Yichen answered yes without hesitation.
He couldn't help but wonder why Feng Shan would ask such an incomprehensible question.
Seeing that Jiang Yichen was suspicious, Feng Shan wanted to dismiss the article hastily and say goodbye to him.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Yichen suddenly recalled that Feng Shan had mentioned that Yichun Courtyard was also his territory during the conversation, and his eyes became strange.
Seeing that his thoughts were exposed, Feng Shan had no choice but to act like his uncle, and said angrily, "My sister doesn't want your kid to go there and get involved with women!"
Jiang Yichen, who was about to climb out of the window, said "take care" was not enough, and solemnly said "take care of yourself" in a meaningful way.
Feng Shan angrily pulled Jiang Yichen down from the window and chased his stinky brother-in-law out of the front door.
He was still chattering: "Songhe Tower is my real home court!"
…
…
He angrily drove away his brother-in-law who was appointed by him, oh no, it was his brother-in-law who was appointed by his sister and whom he recognized.
Feng Shu, who had had a few drinks at noon, seemed to be still a little tipsy, but not a little annoyed. On the contrary, he felt particularly comfortable and happy.
Of course, Feng Shan also thought about entrusting Leng Mei completely to Long Duoduo.
But later in contact with Long Duoduo, he discovered that his awareness was terribly wrong.
As the saying goes, an eldest brother is like a father. Long Duoduo, an elder brother who is better than Leng Mei's own brother, does not need him to entrust him at all, and will still give Leng Mei his eldest brother and loving fatherly care.
The same is true for Leng Mei. This brother who almost raised her up by one hand is no different from her father. She will respect him and love him for the rest of her life.
If both of them can survive this unfair life, they can trust each other for the rest of their lives, but they won't be the ones to stay together forever.
Feng Shan, who didn't have much experience in being an elder brother, was worried about this. When he saw Jiang Yichen, he finally got his wish.
If Zhongzhou can survive this disaster, Xiao Mei will never feel lonely again in the future.
…
…
When the Daoyi League and Tingyuge were thinking of seeking more help for a big time.
The fact that three Shaolin gold seals will be taken to Songshan is spreading and fermenting at a speed beyond normal speed.
About an hour ago, two sedan chairs stopped at the same palace wall in Youjing Imperial City.
He stopped at a position where he was about to pass by the wrong car. The windows of the two cars were half a foot away from each other.
Both are red sedans with square covers carried by four people. They are generally similar in appearance, except for the horizontal stripes under the windows of the sedans.
One is a flying phoenix painted in gold, and the other is a rough liger painted with heavy ink.
These two maroon sedans are, without exception, the official sedans of genuine high-ranking officials in the court.
Precisely because of the appearance of these two official sedans, there was usually no one on the wide road where palace maids and eunuchs occasionally came and went at this time, and where the palace guards routinely patrolled, except for the people riding in and carrying the sedans.
The two people in the sedan did not have the highest official ranks in the court, but they were the leaders of the two most powerful parties in Youjing City.
Before the man in the sedan spoke, the atmosphere beside the palace wall was eerily quiet.
When the people in the car spoke, the curtains on the two car windows were not opened.
Although the eight people carrying the sedan belong to different factions, they all look at the nose and the heart, like a deaf man who has lost both ears.
If anyone were passing by this place at this moment, they would definitely find this scene extremely strange.
Of course, after seeing this scene, that person would never think of leaving this place alive.
In a sedan with a golden lacquered flying phoenix pattern, there sat a man wearing a brocade robe, with plump cheeks, bright and fair skin, and slightly white temples.
The person in the other sedan chair is wearing a dark purple robe, a high crown on his head, long eyebrows, and a beautiful beard. He is well-dressed and dressed.
They are both middle-aged people who have passed the age of knowing their destiny. If they stand together, they look at least ten years apart in appearance, so they can be considered brothers.
It's a pity that with their current status and positions, this will never happen.
Yu Tian was the eunuch in charge of the ceremonial department and the governor of the East Factory.
The fifth prince is General Fengguo who oversees the West Factory.
In terms of power, Yu Tianwen is ahead of the Fifth Marquis.
However, a military official with an empty title but no actual duties in the court can compete with a dignified eunuch who is known as the "internal minister". The fifth prince's methods are evident, and no one dares to look down upon him. heart of.
In fact, the Fifth Marquis disliked his "fifth" surname.
The whole family seems to always have bad luck at critical moments because of this surname, which has a particularly serious impact on themselves.
He ranks fifth among his peers.
He placed fifth in the martial arts competition.
The passing wife came from the fifth richest family in Zhongzhou at that time.
If everything is the fifth, it is not unacceptable for him as the fifth prince.
But in the most important military attache division, he didn't even rank fifth.
After the war between the foreign barbarians in Zhongzhou subsided, the imperial court rewarded him for his merits and granted him the title of Five Tiger Generals to protect the country.
Led by Zhendong General Liang Feixiong, followed by Zhenbei General Helan, Northwest Zhenbian General Cui Ping, Southwest Zhenbian General Shi Xin, and Zhennan General Niu Kelian.
He, the fifth prince, thought that he could not compare with the first three, but he did not think that the latter two should be inferior to each other.
He had a grudge in his heart, and his family was afraid that he would cause trouble, so they wanted him to be idle in the government.
He didn't object.
He lay dormant until the opportunity came.
When Yu Tian approached Shuiloutai and used Dongchang's inherent advantages to launch an offensive against courtiers and even local officials, he also took action.
Yu Tian had Yu Tian's advantage, he had his own skills, and he managed to win without losing.
The Fifth Marquis has always looked down on eunuchs who have no skills, and he still has the confidence to look down on them now.
Yu Tian has never disdained vulgar warriors.
Two people who look down on each other and have great power rarely meet in private. Only when they are forced to cooperate or compromise with each other to achieve a certain goal, and they really have to sit down and have a good talk in peace, will things like this happen. One scene.
Since the two met, they have had only a handful of private meetings.
The first time was to get rid of Shi Xin, who was far away in the southwest but felt like a thorn in his heart.
The most recent time was after the Xunfeng Valley massacre and before the Hundred Flowers Conference.
This time it was obvious that the weight of three Shaolin gold seals was too much.
In addition, this matter can be used to lay some traps to deal with the common enemy of both parties, so it seems worth such a private meeting.
In fact, the two of them could have finalized these matters by clarifying their respective demands and making concessions to each other after the morning meeting.
Unexpectedly, Emperor Yan's mental state was getting weaker day by day, and his body and bones were getting worse day by day. He could not even support the morning court meeting every five days. The day before yesterday, the court meeting was canceled and changed to every ten days.
The two knew that time does not wait for others, and they quickly agreed on this meeting.
