MTL - Chastity Layman-Chapter 3 Cheng Chumo Wei Chi Baoqi

  Chapter 3 Regulations Department Mo Wei Chi Baoqi

   Walking out of the study, looking up and seeing the Taibaijin star still hanging high in the sky, Qin Lang felt that time was running out.

   Three days, three days later it will be the change of Xuanwumen, but at this time Qin Qiong actually has such an attitude, it is really terrible.

   "Saburo?"

  Under the corridor, Qin Yong came over, he looked at Qin Lang with concern and disappointment. "You really don't want to marry Shisanniang Zheng?"

   "Well, no marriage."

Qin Yong couldn't help sighing, "Do you know how rare this marriage is? Do you know that if you marry Zheng's daughter, even if you can't inherit Alang's title of honorary officer in the future, the future will be easy for a while. Xingyang Zheng The clan is the leader of the gentry, or a relative, and even has marriages all over the court and the public."

As the concubine son of a military upstart, Qin Lang is not qualified to inherit Qin Qiong's title of honorary officer even if he strives for it himself. In the future, everything will depend on himself. If no one helps, he may not even be able to wear a scarlet robe in his life. .

   This is the difference between the concubine and the concubine, and also the distinction between the scholar and the concubine.

  Qin Lang thought to himself, he didn't want to get involved with the unlucky Zheng family, and now he wished to draw a clear line with them.

   "Sanlang, the black **** who was thundering that day dared to come to the door. I was just scolded." Malian Ah Huang came to ask for credit with a flattering expression.

   "Which black dick?"

   "It's the second child of Yuchi Laohei's family, Yuchi Baoqi, he was the one who knocked you off the horse when playing polo yesterday." Ah Huang was indignant for his master.

It turned out to be the second child of Yu Chigong's family. Qin Lang didn't think that he was plotted against for falling off his horse yesterday, so he thought he knew it, but after thinking about it, he came at the right time, and he was worried that he didn't make a breakthrough point.

"Ah Huang, the visitor is a guest. Besides, since he came to the door to make an apology, how can we not accept it behind closed doors? Isn't this the way our Duke Yi's mansion treats guests? Come on, come with me to welcome you." Yuchi Erlang!"

  Ah Huang was stunned for a moment, the relationship between Sanlang and the son of Yuchi's family has never been very good, although he dare not say that he was injured yesterday because he was raped, but the usual relationship is indeed normal, why is he so polite?

  It seems that Saburo was really confused by being kicked by a horse. He refused to marry Zheng's daughter before, but now he wants Yuchi's second child as a friend.

  On Qixiamen Street, Duke Yi's mansion opens its doors to the street.

  Outside the gate, Yuchi Baoqi was already preparing to go back home, but the side door of the Qin Mansion opened, and Qin Lang stood at the door and shouted, "Well, Yuchi's second son, you still dare to come!"

Yuchi Baoqi is the second son of Yuchi Jingde, the general of the Qin family. He is as dark as his father, tall and strong, like a **** bear. Hei followed Liu Wuzhou to rebel against Tang, and was later defeated by Qin Qiong in Meiliangchuan, became a prisoner, and finally surrendered to Tang.

  Because of this incident, the relationship between Yuchi and Qin Qiong is not very good. Their sons are both in the left guard Ren Xunwei. They are considered colleagues, but the relationship is not very good.

  Yesterday a group of guards played polo, and Yuchi Baoqi knocked Qin Lang's crescent stick off his horse during the scramble, and passed out immediately after the fight.

  Xiao Erhei didn't get any good money. He was scolded and beaten by Lao Hei when he went home yesterday, so he had to come to apologize today.

   Seeing Qin Lang's attitude, he had expected it a long time ago, so he quickly pulled out the person next to him, "Brother Cheng, help brother."

  The man chuckled, "Okay, your Qinghai horse will be sent to me later."

   "Definitely." Yuchi Baoqi repeated.

  The man stepped forward with satisfaction, "Sanlang, it seems that you are full of energy, so there is nothing serious about it!"

  Qin Lang saw that this guy was also tall and tall, but how could he know him, "You are?"

   "Okay, Qin Sanlang, do you think your brother is meddling in your affairs? Brother, this is all for your own good, and you still pretend not to know each other."

  Ma faced a smile and stepped forward, "Cheng Dalang, my Saburo has lost his memory after waking up, and he doesn't even remember who he is, please forgive me."

After Ma Lian finished speaking, he said to Qin Lang again, "Sanlang, this is the eldest son of the Cheng family, your best partner." Seeing that Qin Lang was still at a loss, he said again, "The eldest son of General Cheng, Duke of Su, Cheng Dalang Cheng Chumo !"

  As soon as he heard the words Cheng Chumo, Qin Lang immediately understood that he was Cheng Yaojin's son. The relationship between Cheng Yaojin and Qin Qiong is quite strong. First of all, they are both from Shandong. Secondly, they all worked together in Wagang back then, and Wang Shichong, who surrendered together, abandoned Zheng and returned to Tang together, and returned to Qin Wang Li Shimin together. They are old brothers who have fought side by side for more than ten years.

   Both used to be the commander of Li Shimin's Xuanwu cavalry. Before that, Qin Qiong was the third commander of the right army, and Cheng Yaojin was the third commander of the left army. But compared to Qin Qiong's current attitude of wanting to be neutral, Lao Cheng is a hard-core Qin Wang party. The prince bought him and was unmoved. The prince wanted to transfer him to be the governor of Kangzhou. He found every reason to stay out of Beijing.

  Seeing him, Qin Lang felt that he had found an organization.

   "Oh, it turned out to be Da Lang. Look at my head. After being kicked by a horse, I'm still confused."

After Cheng Chumo heard the reason, he didn't take it seriously. He stretched out his big hand and patted Qin Lang's body several times, "I think it will be fine in two days. It's fine. I'm here today, and Brother Baoqi dragged me here." Yes, I want to apologize to you."

Qin Lang glanced at Yuchi Xiao Erhei, who was like black charcoal, and then at the bearded old man of the Cheng family, he laughed, "They're all my brothers, so why don't you apologize? Playing polo, there will always be When you miss."

  Bao Qi was relieved to see Qin Lang's attitude. If she couldn't resolve the beam today, she would probably have to be beaten when she returned home. When the old man became ruthless, he just whipped him with a horse stick.

   "Sanlang, no matter what, yesterday was my brother, isn't it? Today, brother, I am the host. Let's go to Yuelai Restaurant in Dongshi City, and order the best wine and the best dishes. Brother, I will apologize to you!"

  Qin Lang wanted to take the opportunity to open up the situation, of course he was very happy, so he smiled and invited him to Chang'an East City for a drink.

  Chang'an East City is just at the northeast corner of Qinrenfang where the Qin family is located, and it is a short walk after leaving the Qin residence.

  In the afternoon, the three hundred drums for the opening of Dongshi City were still beating, and merchants and ordinary people lined up to enter through the square gate. Although the city of Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty was large, all commercial transactions were concentrated in the east and west cities. The two cities each occupied two squares. The market opened with drums every afternoon and closed at dusk when the sun went down.

  There are no shops on other streets in Chang’an, nor are they allowed to sell on the beach, and there are even no shops in the squares. Therefore, the east and west cities each have 220 lines and thousands of shops, which is very lively.

   After entering Dongshi, the group went straight to the largest Yuelai Restaurant.

   "Xiao Er, the private seat on the second floor."

   "Several guests, what kind of food and wine do you want? This shop has all kinds of delicious wine and delicacies, including Western Region San Le Porridge, Gaochang Wine, Xinfeng Green Ant, Jiannan Shaochun, and Baqiao Lamb Wine."

  Cheng Chumo saw that he was a regular customer, and shouted, "Who drinks lamb wine in June, it's so greasy, let's have some Gaochang wine, remember to chill it."

   "Okay, we have ice stored in the winter kiln here, which is guaranteed to be cold. What appetizers would you like to order?"

  Yuchi Erhei opened his mouth and came, "Roast a few hump humps! Roast four more lamb legs."

Cheng Chumo despised that he only knew how to eat meat, and told Xiao Er, "Go to Xiao's shop to buy wontons, go to Yu's shop to buy rice dumplings, and then go to Han's shop to buy biluo, remember to buy their signature cherry stuffing and crab roe stuffing. .”

   "What would Sanlang want?" Cheng Chumo turned his head and asked Qin Lang.

  Qin Lang didn't know what famous food was in Dongshi, so he had to ask Qin Yong who came with him to help.

  Qin Yong is not as exaggerated as they are, "Then have a piece of your signature water basin mutton, and each of you can have a bowl of locust leaf cold pottery."

   "Good class, do you want to serve the water basin mutton with lotus leaf cake?"

   "If you want, eat water basin mutton, half dry and half soaked in mutton soup, that's a must."

  Xiaoer wrote down with a smile, and greeted several people upstairs.

  Sitting down in the box, Cheng Chu smiled silently and said to Qin Lang, "Today is Yuchi Erlang as the host, let's slaughter him once, order whatever you want."

  Yuchi Baoqi smiled a little reluctantly, the order just now is not cheap, after all, this is the most famous restaurant in Chang'an.

   "There are so many that the four of us probably won't be able to eat them all." Qin Lang remembered that they ordered a bunch just now, among other things, four humps and four legs of lamb would be a big deal.

  It was noon at this time, and although the East Market had just opened, a large number of businessmen and people poured into the East Market, making the restaurants lively quickly, and many of them rushed into the market without having lunch.

   Tuofeng and lamb shanks are freshly baked, while Xiao’s wontons, Yu’s rice dumplings and Han’s Bi Luo are all bought from outside shops.

   Biluo is actually a kind of fried pie. Crab roe Biluo tastes great, Huaiye cold pottery is cold noodles made from the juice of locust leaves, and water basin mutton is actually boiled mutton slices.

Qin Lang hasn't eaten anything since he woke up. He ate a portion and ate everything. He thought Tang people's diet would be very ordinary, but he couldn't stop eating. It's really delicious, especially the portion is sufficient. The material is fresh and real.

He also discovered that his food intake actually has the potential to be a big eater. After eating a bunch of food, it feels like he just stuffed his stomach. The other three are like wind and clouds, and they have already eaten up the mutton and started breaking the load Soak the leaf cake in the mutton soup, and began to urge the roasted hump and roasted leg of lamb to be faster.

While waiting and chatting, I heard someone downstairs talking loudly about an anecdote, and it was that Yi Guogong was recommended by the crown prince to be promoted to General Zuowei, and the crown prince even came forward to tell the concubine Qin Qiong that he was close to Xingyang. The matter of Zheng's daughter.

   "Then Qin Lang is just a maidservant who gave birth to a concubine, how can He De marry a girl with five surnames?" someone screamed.

   "It's good that Qin Lang is a bastard, but his father is a Duke." Someone said sourly.

   "Government? There are many Dukes in China, but how many eldest sons of Dukes can marry women with five surnames?" Someone retorted.

   "That's different. Qin Qiong was originally a general of Qin Wangfu, but now he has transferred to the East Palace. The prince should reward him generously."

  Everyone was aggrieved, scolding Qin Lang for being unlucky, and someone scolding Qin Qiong for being unjust and so on.

  The voice came from upstairs, and the atmosphere in the box suddenly became weird.

  Cheng Chu laughed silently twice.

   While continuing to break the lotus leaf cake, he sneered at Qin Lang, "I just found out that Uncle Qin was promoted, congratulations."

  Qin Lang glanced at him, then picked up a piece of lotus leaf cake and broke it into the mutton soup in front of him, "They all serve His Majesty, and obey the imperial court's orders."

"It's still Uncle Qin who has the ability. From the fourth rank of the Qin Palace, he went down to the third right army, and was directly promoted from the third rank to the left guard general. He was promoted several levels in succession. He was also granted such a powerful position as General Tianjie. It probably won't be long. You have been promoted to be a general of the third rank, right?" His words had already begun to be sarcastic.

   "Dalang, if you have anything to say, just say it." Qin Lang stopped his movements.

  Cheng Chumo picked up the iced Gaochang wine, poured himself a large glass, and drank it in one gulp. He looked at Qin Lang, already a little cold.

   "Everyone downstairs said that Uncle Qin was promoted to an important position because he was strongly recommended by the crown prince, and the crown prince also personally came forward to tell Saburo that he is a daughter of the Zheng family in Xingyang. Is there such a thing?"

   "The news spread quickly." Qin Lang chuckled.

   "Just say that's the case?"

   "It's true."

   Cheng Chumo's eyes turned red all of a sudden, he poured himself another glass of wine and stood up.

"Come on, Saburo, after drinking this glass of wine, we two brothers will be passers-by from now on. From now on, you will take your Yangguan Avenue, and I will cross my single-plank bridge. From now on, bridges will return to bridges, and roads will return to roads. We brothers It's all about this, do it!"

Yuchi Baoqi also picked up the wine glass. He shook his head, looked at Qin Lang and snorted coldly with some disdain, "It's really unexpected. I knew that I should have swung my stick a little harder yesterday. Come on, drink this glass, and afterward We don't know each other anymore!"
