Hu Long couldn't help but shake his head and laugh when he heard the two comments "This song can only be heard in heaven, and how many times can it be heard in the world".
It turns out that these two lines of poems come from Du Fu's "Giving Flowers to the Queen". They were originally intended to admonish Hua Jingding, who has no court and usurps the emperor's happiness.
The so-called "How many times do you hear this in the world" is really an irony that Hua Jingding is so arrogant and wanton, so it is unlikely that he will die well in the future.
Although the speaker quoted the allusion indiscriminately, but when applied to the Song Dynasty monarchs and ministers who are now greedy for pleasure and turned a military town like Damingfu into a prosperous place of singing and dancing, it is also a misunderstanding, and it will inevitably become a prophecy in the future.
After sighing in his heart, he ordered Qiu Wu to invite the man who played the dongxiao to meet him.
Qiu Wu followed the order and left, and soon he led a young man back.
This young man is only sixteen or seventeen years old, only slightly older than Murong Yan, but he has a jade face, red lips, thin eyebrows and handsome eyes. He is as handsome as Murong Yan who transformed into a man, but he is a little less powerful in terms of aura, more Some warmth.
The young man entered this elegant seat, and when he saw Hu Long sitting in the middle, his eyes seemed to have realized something. He hurriedly stepped forward and bowed respectfully: "Young man Yan Qing, I have met Taoist Master Taipu."
Hu Long laughed: "How does Yan Xiaoyi recognize Pindao?"
Yan Qing maintained a respectful attitude and carefully answered: "It's a long story. Recently my mentor Mr. Zhou, who was my mentor at Yuanwai, came back from the north and stayed at Yuanwai's house for a night. He once told me how he and the Taoist priest fought side by side against the enemy. Because I was lucky enough to serve beside him, I heard about the Taoist priest’s appearance.”
Hu Long asked: "Mr. Zhou is still in your mansion now."
Yan Qing said: "Taoist Master arrived a little late. Mr. Zhou had returned to Tokyo a few days earlier."
Hu Long sighed: "That's a bit unfortunate. It seems that we can only meet Mr. Zhou again when we come to Tokyo in the future."
Yan Qingqian was not very young, but he was a smart man with clear features and eyes. At that time, he did not need Hu Long to ask, but he took the initiative and said: "Taoist Master is a friend of Mr. Zhou. Now that we have come to Daming Mansion, my family members must do their best to serve as landlords." Otherwise, in the future, not only Master Zhou will blame my family member, but my family member will also blame me for not being polite. If the Taoist Priest has no urgent business, please accompany me to the family member's home as a guest."
This statement was exactly what Hu Long wanted. While he secretly praised the young man for being a smart person, he followed the flow and said "nao" and agreed.
At that time, Yan Qing rushed to settle the bill before dinner, and then respectfully led Hu Long and the others downstairs.
When you go downstairs, you must greet and joke with Yan Qing as long as you meet anyone, regardless of their high or low status, or any of the three religions.
Especially those Yingying and Yanyan who were drinking with her during the banquet, their beautiful eyes sparkled when they saw Yan Qing. They called her "Brother Yi" every word, making her very affectionate. Some even came up to tease her and make her intimate.
No matter who is in front of him, Yan Qing always answers correctly and speaks appropriately, always making the other person feel at ease.
When treating those singers, he called "sister, sister," and his words and demeanor were quite friendly, but his behavior was very decent and there was nothing disrespectful about it. ” means, the name “prodigal son” is indeed true.
Hu Long looked at it and secretly praised in his heart that this young man's martial arts was not first-class, but his mental knowledge and way of dealing with others were indeed of a first-class level.
When they got downstairs, a waiter had already prepared the carriages and horses of Hu Long and others. Hu Long was still sitting in the car, Murong Yan was accompanying him on horseback, and Yan Qing was sitting on the shaft of the carriage with Qiu Wu to show him the way.
After passing through several streets and alleys, the carriage and horses arrived in front of a grand mansion covering a large area.
Yan Qing got out of the car first, cupped his hands to Hu Huan in the car and said, "Taoist Master, please wait a moment while I call the officer outside."
Hu Long smiled and nodded: "Thank you, Xiao Yi."
Yan Qing turned around and entered the house, and within a moment, she followed someone quickly out the door.
Hu Long also got out of the car at this moment. When I looked up, I saw that the man was tall and tall, wearing a white robe. He looked like a high mountain made of snow and jade. His eyebrows were divided into eight characters, his eyes were full of divine light, and he had three short beards as black as ink under his chin. Although he was not angry, he still showed his majesty. .
"Xiao Ke Lu Junyi, I have met the Taoist priest!"
When the visitor arrived in front of Hu Long, he bowed and saluted with his hands clasped in fists, with a humble and thoughtful manner.
Lu Junyi had long ago learned from his mentor Zhou Tong that the Taoists in front of him were all unpredictable. Not only could he control fire and thunder, but he could also use a magical power that transformed him into a giant to fight with the master of the "Blackwater Palace" in the Liao Kingdom through the air. After a hard fight, he was only slightly injured.
In front of such a person, he knew that his reputation as a "Jade Qilin" with unparalleled guns and sticks and a powerful reputation in Hebei did not carry much weight, so naturally he did not dare to show any slights.
What's more, his mentor Zhou Tong had other explanations. This Taoist Hu Yuan looked young, but in fact he was a senior master who had practiced facial expressions for many years. He didn't dare to claim to be a senior and only talked about teachings as a peer. Lu Junyi was a disciple. When facing Hu Long, it is natural to behave like a junior.
However, Hu Yuan did not succumb to the situation and "reliance on his old age". He returned the courtesy and said with a smile: "A member of the imperial family is very polite, how can I dare to be a poor man?"
Then Murong Yan and Qiu Wu introduced each other behind them.
After the two parties had finished their greetings, Lu Junyi hurriedly invited Hu Yuan and the others to his residence. Yan Qing did not need to wait for the master's instructions, and had already gone to arrange a banquet to entertain the distinguished guests.
The guests sat and talked for a while, and with Hu Long's sophistication, they quickly found out the background of Yuanwai Lu.
It can be said that this person's achievements in martial arts are indeed extraordinary. Although he is only thirty-years-old, his cultivation has reached the peak of the innate realm, and he is very hopeful that he can penetrate the subtle secrets and become a great master within ten years.
Such a talent is comparable to that of Xiao Feng, who was recognized as a martial arts genius in the martial arts world in the past.
It's just that although he has practiced earth-shattering martial arts, he is really not a martial artist. In these years, he has only lived a stable life with a huge inheritance passed down from his ancestors, and has rarely even left the Daming Mansion in his life.
Even after his parents died when he was young, Lu Junyi, who took over the family business, simply entrusted other people to take care of his business. He only focused on working out his muscles and bones at home and studying martial arts.
Therefore, it is no wonder that this member of the Communist Party of China, Lu, is in his thirties, and his character is far from mature. He relies on young Yan Qing to take care of many things on his behalf.
Speaking of which, Yan Qing was taken in by Lu Junyi when she was living on the streets as a child, and she considered herself a slave out of gratitude for Lu Junyi's kindness.
But in Lu Junyi's heart, he always regarded this young man who had watched him grow up little by little and taught him martial arts skills as his nephew and brother.
The actual situation is that when Yan Qing grew up a little, he took care of Lu Junyi, his father-in-law and his master.
It's just that his methods are clever and he does many things without leaving any trace. Lu Junyi often just sits back and enjoys the success without realizing it.
