Chapter 97 The Four Juns in Chang'an!

On the seventh day of the seventh month, the birthday party is here.

This day happens to be the Chinese Valentine's Day, the legendary day when the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meet on the Magpie Bridge, and it is also the Valentine's Day on earth!

According to the law: the night ban is lifted in Chang'an City, and the people can move freely and enjoy the joy of the festival.

...

At dusk, Li Zhao packed up and took the white bun out. The two rode straight to Qujiangchi.

Along the way, you can see nobles riding horses and daughters riding in cars from time to time. They bring servants and gifts to attend the Qujiang night banquet!

Someone asked why the birthday party was held in Qujiangchi at night?

This is a long story. It is a happy thing to have a baby in Japan. However, for young people, when celebrating their birthdays at home, they often have elders present. They are so restricted that they dare not have fun at all!

As a result, a custom gradually emerged in Chang'an City: when the young men from powerful families celebrated their birthdays, they first held a banquet at home during the day, and spent with their relatives and elders, and then held a night banquet, only invited their peers to come, and everyone had a happy time without restraint!

Qujiangchi has beautiful scenery and spacious space, so it is naturally the first choice for night banquets.

The specific location is on an island in the middle of the lake, with more than 100 acres of land, with a large number of pavilions and towers built on it, which are beautifully decorated, and a white marble bridge communicating with the shore.

"Let's go to Fairy Mei's birthday banquet, let's go in quickly."

"Thank you, my nanny, for coming to support you. Please enter the venue in order with invitations in hand, and do not crowd."

...

Miss Mei is not only rich in the world, but also beautiful. She is known as the "Fairy of Plum". There are countless people who want to attend her birthday party. Looking around, there are traffic inside and outside Qujiang Pond, and people are rushing, almost reaching a crowd.

However, the White Marble Bridge has been blocked by the servants of the Mei family, and only those holding invitations can enter.

There are three types of invitations:

The first type is a golden invitation, with a very small number of less than one hundred. The lucky ones who can get such invitations are either the top-level powerful young men or the ladies of famous families, and must also be talented and beautiful.

The second type is silver invitations, with about 300 pieces, given to children of the next level of powerful people or more famous young heroes!

The third type is blue invitations, with more than 500 pieces, for children from small nobles or some rich young men!

As for those who do not have invitations, they can only visit other places in Qujiangchi and try their luck to see if they can find their own romantic encounter.

...

At night, Li Zhao and Bai Mo came to Qujiangchi, but did not rush to enter the island in the middle of the lake. Instead, after tied up the mount, he quietly got into the crowd, wandered around, and found out the news.

This is one of the habits left by joining the army. No matter where you go or do, you must investigate the situation in advance before taking action. This is called a battle of no confidence!

"Do you know, Fairy Mei has arrived. When I got off the car and entered the island just now, I was fortunate to see it. It had a delicate figure, a beautiful appearance, and a fairy-like temperament... If I could marry her, I would be happy to live for twenty years!

"Haha, don't you want to eat swan meat. Be careful that the immortal has not been married. You can report to the King of Hell Palace. In today's world, there are probably only Chang'an Sijun who can match Fairy Mei. Have they arrived?"

"Look, one has come, it seems like the young master of tiger!"

...

"Da!-Da!"

With the loud sound of horse hooves, seven or eight knights rushed over, leading a young man in costume, with sword-browed eyebrows and tiger-eyed eyes, with a tall figure, and a burly body like steel. He wore a green sword around his waist, and a copper-tied iron-arm arrow and a big bag hanging on the saddle!

The visitor was Xue Hao, the third among the four masters of Chang'an, and the grandson of Xue Rengui, a famous general of the Tang Dynasty.

When he arrived nearby, Xue Song turned over and dismounted and walked towards the island in the middle of the lake with his bag. Wherever his figure went, the tourists around him made way...

‘What a mighty and domineering man, the young master of the tiger, he is well-deserved!’

Among the crowd, Li Zhao looked at Xue Song and imprinted his figure firmly in his heart. He felt that this person had a very shallow relationship with him!

At the same time, Xue Song seemed to feel something, his cold eyes swept around, and soon discovered Li Zhao in the crowd.

In an instant, two eyes collided in the air, one looked like thousands of years of ice, and the other was like the flames of the underworld... entangled with each other, it was hard to tell the difference!

opponent?

friend?

interesting!

After looking at each other for a while, Xue Song turned around and entered the lake island, while Li Zhao continued to wander among the crowd, waiting for the next big man to appear...

"Young Master Yan is here too!"

"Young Master Yan looks here!"

Immediately afterwards, a handsome young man arrived on a green-maned horse. Yang Yan, the last of the four handsome men in Chang'an, was a famous and wise young man.

The beauties in the crowd became active in an instant, some people waving handkerchiefs, some people swearing their eyes desperately, and constantly twisting their graceful waists, and even more people trying to attract attention.

Unfortunately, the fallen flowers are affectionate and the flowing water is unintentional. Facing the surrounding Yingying and Yanyan, Yang Yan didn't even raise his eyelids, and was as cold as a piece of ice.

Perhaps in the eyes of this wise young man, all living beings are like rotten trees!

...

"The lonely young master is here too!"

"Hello, Mr. Dugu!"

"Haha, everyone, don't crowd it. It's bad if you accidentally step on others!"

A moment later, Wushuang's son Dugu Junchen also came. As expected, he was the same nickname as his. The man on the road is like jade, and the young master Shi Wushuang is a handsome and elegant man.

And he was very polite. He got off his mount from a distance and kept saying hello to the people around him, giving people a feeling of spring breeze, winning bursts of cheers and hot discussions from countless people:

"The four men of Chang'an have already arrived. I wonder when the Prince of Ruyang will appear?"

"I heard that King Ning Qiansui was in a state of discomfort recently. Prince Ruyang is a filial son. He serves by the bed every day, and he doesn't take off his clothes and tastes medicine. I'm afraid he doesn't have time to come to the banquet!"

"That's a pity. If the Prince of Ruyang doesn't come, I'm afraid no one can defeat Mr. Dugu. Do you think Fairy Mei will be moved by it?"

"I guess it will. The lonely young master and Fairy Mei are very good-looking, but I'm afraid Mr. Xue is not happy. I heard that he has been secretly in love with Fairy Mei... Shuangjun competes for beauty, there will be a good show tonight, hehe!"

...

Li Zhao hid in the crowd, collected a lot of information, and knew it, and then he took the white buns to the island in the middle of the lake.

"Stop this young man, those who do not have invitations tonight are not allowed to enter!"

"I have!"

"Ah, I'm sorry, the villain is so ugly. Please come in and ask me, please guide you!"

As soon as I arrived at the White Marble Bridge, I was stopped by the servants of the Mei family. But as soon as I took out the gold-plated invitation, the servants made a 180-degree turn, and their attitude was extremely enthusiastic.

Then he led Li Zhao straight to the height of the lake island. It turned out that the banquet tonight was arranged differently depending on the color of the invitation:

Guests holding blue invitations can only be arranged on the bottom floor of the island in the middle of the lake.

Holding silver invitations, arranged on the middle floor of the lake island.

Only VIPs holding golden invitations can climb to the top of the island in the middle of the lake, where there is a huge observation deck, looking down from above, and the construction is very luxurious, and it is also the home venue of this banquet!

There are a large number of maids and servants on each floor, bringing hearty food and food to entertain guests, and also invites some singers, dancers, jugglers, and performing wonderful programs, which wins cheers.

"Young Master Zhao is here!"

...

With the welcome shouting, Li Zhao stepped into the observation deck. The interior space here is extremely large, with carved beams and painted buildings, which are magnificent, like a small palace.

On the main seat, Miss Mei, dressed in a dress, sat upright. With the bright lights, a beautiful face could be vaguely seen through the thin white veil, and seemed to be covered with some rouge and powder.

A woman is to please herself. When a woman dresses up seriously, it means that there is someone in her heart - a man!

There were hundreds of guests on both sides, all of whom were young, with beautiful women, and beautiful women of over 70% of the appearance. The men were handsome and elegant, and each of them was extraordinary. Among them were Dugu Junchen, Xue Hao, and Yang Yan, who sat in the second, third and fourth positions on the left, but the first position was empty.

Wang Changshou was also in the crowd and was chatting with a few young ladies. It seemed that this kid was in love... He also knew that he waved his hand, which was not a good thing, which meant he was not lustful!

"I wish Fairy Mei a hundred years of life and eternal youth."

"Young Master Zhao is here, the little girl is honored. Please sit down quickly!"

"Thank you fairy."

Seeing Li Zhao appear, Miss Mei looked happy and quickly stood up to greet him, leading Li Zhao to sit down.

The seats have been arranged long ago, just the first one on the left, very close to the main seat.

"Who is he? He actually sat next to Fairy Mei, above the three eldest sons?"

"I looked at myself and didn't know each other. Maybe it was Fairy Mei's relative, otherwise why would he be treated so well?"

"It's not like a relative. Fairy Mei's eyes looked at him, and it was almost sweet. I'm afraid there was another inside story!"

...

The first position on the left was originally thought to be left for the Prince of Ruyang, but he didn't expect Li Zhao to sit down, which immediately caused a sensation. The young men and ladies present whispered...

As we all know, Fairy Mei has a soft outside and hard inside. She looks approachable, but in fact she is proud!

When Gu Du Junchen, Xue Hao and Yang Yan came in, she just stood up and just spoke politely and politely. Now she came forward to greet him in person and arranged to sit in the first place... What kind of virtue does this kid have to be so favored by the beauty?

Knowing that everyone was confused, Miss Mei started to introduce: "Everyone, this is Mr. Li Zhao, a son of the royal family, a bad handsome man who has recently taken office, and a close friend of the little girl!"

"Li Zhao, is it the genius who made poetry in seven steps in the selection examination of the Ministry of Personnel?"

"Li Zhao, a bad handsome man, it only took two days to help Wang Caishen retrieve the one who had the glassware?"

...

The guests were talking, and there was a little more respect in their eyes when they looked at Li Zhao, but it was just a little bit!

You should know that the guests who are qualified to enter the observation deck are all the best among the powerful and noble children. They all have deep backgrounds and are above the top. If you want to truly gain their recognition, relying solely on rumors is not enough, you must show your strong strength in person!

On the other side, there were servants serving delicious food and aged wines!

Li Zhao was not polite either. He started eating and drinking in big mouthfuls, and did not forget to steal some white buns that he handed to him behind him. Good brothers should share the blessings together.

I was so happy that I was eating and drinking, but I didn’t expect another uninvited guest to come!

"Ning Prince's Mansion - Young Master Wei is here!"
