Chapter 688 Today’s Starring
The giant solid gold is heavy, the fat crab is white and fragrant. ---------Northern Song Dynasty. Zhang Lei's "Send a Letter Just Asking for Crabs"
It is said that Zhang Ji and Zhang Derong came forward to solicit, and even used Zhang Ji to give up the martial arts competition as bait and promised to demarcate a separate settlement area for the Huaiyang people, but Huaiyang still declined. How did Zhang Ji know that Huaiyang's true identity was Chen Long, the Lord of Qinglong? How could he agree to his call?
In the small pavilion in the garden, when Zhang Ji woke up from his meditation alone, Chen Long had disappeared. Zhang Ji increasingly felt that this Sophora japonica was unfathomable, or at least his ambition was unfathomable. Otherwise, how could a Hu leader not agree to his recruitment with such generous conditions? It is really puzzling that Huaiyang is unwilling to do anything even if he pretends to agree first.
The water and grass around Tianshui are rich. Many Hu tribes tried their best to flood into the plains between the Wei River and the Yellow River. Most of them were driven away by the Tianshui guards. Only a small number of tribes were resettled, which was better than the arduous and aimless nomads. What Huaiyang has rejected now can be said to be an excellent opportunity for the entire clan to migrate, and it will be welcomed and protected by the Tianshui defenders. In Zhang Ji's heart, he was originally happy because Huaiyang had severely defeated Song Jian, a potential enemy, but now because of Huaiyang's refusal to be recruited, he had an even more ominous premonition. Tianshui, which he had worked hard for decades, seemed to be about to be shaken by the storm. .
Putting aside Zhang Ji's hard thinking for the time being, Chen Long returned to his seat and poured himself another glass of wine. Looking around the round table, it was the time when the wine was flowing. Many people were toasting and chatting happily around Zheng Xuan and Ma Yunluo. There is a steady stream of lake crabs and they are still coming to the plate. Chen Long felt that several eyes were paying attention to him. He picked up a lake crab casually and saw that it was small. He knew that it was a wild species and must be delicious. He opened the crab lid with a click and started eating by himself.
Many people think that lake crabs are more delicious than sea crabs because although lake crabs have less meat, they are more flavorful. Wild lake crabs are even more precious. If they were left to future generations, I believe they would command a sky-high price. As the saying goes, "Big solids are heavy with gold, fat crabs are white with fragrance." The ancients have always used the most beautiful poems to praise the hairy crabs growing in the lake. People are obsessed with the plump crab roe and the sweet and sticky crab paste, which is also the evidence of its ranking in the world of crabs.
Chen Long was enjoying his meal when he suddenly heard some commotion in his ears, as if it was a collective sound of exclamation. When he quickly looked up, he was stunned. Among the people, I happened to see a few slim figures emerging from the corner of the garden. The person in the middle was wearing light makeup and plain clothes, with an extraordinary temperament. She had swollen eyebrows and phoenix eyes, black hair as black as ink, and snow-white skin. She looked like a fairy coming to the world. As rustling as a flower falling into the world of mortals, it is none other than Diao Chan, the leading actor today, which immediately caused a sensation among many lustful people.
Ma Yunluo smiled with a smile on his face, glanced at Chen Long who was holding up half a crab and looking blankly at Diao Chan, then turned back to greet Diao Chan. In an instant, the two beauties were walking side by side. It was plum blossoms, orchids, bamboos, and chrysanthemums that each excelled in. Their graceful figures and stunning faces were overwhelming. All the men were immediately delighted and thought to themselves, God was so kind today, why did he get so fat? Otaku benefits?
Diao Chan's eyes were as steady as an ancient well, and she followed Ma Yunluan's footsteps to Chen Long's side. Pointing to the seat next to Chen Long, he smiled and said: "Sister Shuang, please sit down."
Chen Long quickly threw away the lake crab in his hand, stood up and did not dare to look directly at it. He bowed his head and said, "It turns out to be Sister Shuang. The little man Huaiyang is polite."
Diao Chan smelled the scent of her long-lost lover and saw Chen Long growing a beard. How could she not know that Chen Long put on makeup and went to Xiliang to save her? My heart was full of emotions, waves of love were surging, and the unconcealable joy and pain in my eyes were revealed in an instant. But Diao Chan was no ordinary girl. She reacted in an instant, finally suppressed the huge waves, and said calmly: "Hello, Mr. Huaiyang."
Ma Yunluo smiled maliciously and said: "Mr. Huaiyang, I, Sister Shuang, is my best best friend. She is new here, so I specially asked her to sit next to you. If you don't take good care of me, I want to seek justice." "Yes." After that, he poured a glass of new wine and handed it to Diao Chan: "Sister Shuang, Mr. Huaiyang is the star of this sermon conference. He is not yet married, so he is pursuing the younger sister and participating in a competition to attract a bride. You have to be careful Mr. Huai, don’t let him feel lonely, haha!”
Only Zhang Ji and his son here knew Diao Chan, and they vaguely knew that Ma Yunluo was going to test Chen Long's identity, so they just waited to watch the excitement and did not expose it. However, many of the children from other major families couldn't sit still and kept casting envious and jealous glances at Huaiyang. Why was this beautiful woman sitting next to the loser Huaiyang?
Diao Chan did not dare to make eye contact with Chen Long, fearing that she would immediately become entangled and others would see her flaws. As long as he tried his best to suppress his impulse, he said hello calmly: "Young master, don't listen to Sister Yunluo's jokes. The little girl just happened to be there and was dragged by Sister Yunluo to make up for it."
The two of them sat down, and the atmosphere turned awkward. Both of them were deeply in love, but they had to play it off for fear of being found out. The young talents headed by Sima Lang and Wang Chang came over to propose a toast to Diao Chan, all showing expressions of splendid congratulation. Diao Chan is a peerless beauty, this is too lethal. After the young talents called Sister Shuang for a few rounds, Diao Chan was as cold as ice at first, with the wine on her lips. She gradually drank more and her face turned red. Chen Long watched her coaxing the men around, and his heart No wonder the beauties of later generations like to have sex. It turns out that there has been a unique inheritance of communication between men and women since ancient times. Tea is the doctor of flowers, and wine is the matchmaker of sex. Although Diao Chan tries to keep a low profile, she can't stop the flying butterflies. After all, when it comes to acting, Diao Chan is pretty good at it.
Amid the commotion, Ma Yunluo didn't know where to go. Suddenly, several people walked up in a row and came to Diao Chan's side. When Chen Long looked up, he saw everyone raising a big cup, and he couldn't help but secretly scream in his heart. It turned out to be Han De, the drunken Qiang soldier commander, with his four sons lined up behind him.
Han De, who had a rough appearance, looked at Diao Chan intently, and his tongue almost flowed from his big mouth. He just heard him praising in a rough voice: "What a beautiful lady! I have been here in Tianshui for so long, but I didn't know that there is a great beauty hidden among the caravan masters? This time, she outshone the caravan masters. Beauty, I am Han Dejing. One drink for you!”
Chen Long seemed indifferent on the surface, but he couldn't help feeling sick in his heart. Diao Chan could only stand up with a fake smile and said softly: "It turns out to be Marshal Han. Marshal Han is ridiculous. There are all dignitaries here, and this little girl is just a commoner. Sister Yunluo insists on me coming forward." , It really hurt me a lot."
Han De's eyes were dim and he said with a shy smile: "With Sister Shuang's beauty, how difficult is it to become Mrs. Gaoming! If you don't dislike it, my wife, Han De, will die early, and Sister Shuang will just be my wife!"
You must know that Han De's first wife is equivalent to the wife of the field army commander in later generations. She is like a sparrow turning into a phoenix and flying up the branches. As Han De laughed, the more he looked at Diao Chan, the more he fell in love with her. Without thinking, a pair of pig hands touched Diao Chan's shoulders.
If you want to know what happens next, listen to the explanation next time.
