Chapter 346 Invitation to talk
Su Chen, Jiang Tao, and Liu Dong entered the second floor of Fengming Building, ordered eight dishes, and drank a dime of wine. The four of them ate and chatted.
He ordered a separate table for Bailang and Jingyun, and they also served good wine and good food. For Bailang, as long as there is wine, it will be fine. Such high-end restaurants naturally have "Qianbeizui", "Nv'erhong", "Ganlu Bai", etc.
Fine wines are expensive, but Su Chen is also very wealthy, so he each asked for a jar for him. If he couldn't drink it, he could take it back to drink.
Liu Dong and the others could also see that Su Chen was very polite to the groom, not treating him like a servant at all, but they didn't ask any more questions.
Jiang Tao raised his glass and said, "Mr. Su, I really want to thank you and Miss Peng so much this time. From now on, the three of us will follow Mr. Su's lead."
"Just...just!" Liu Dong raised his glass in agreement.
"I agree!" Xia Baosong also picked up his wine glass and nodded.
Su Chen saw that the three people's expressions were sincere, showing them naturally and showing no false expressions. He felt a little satisfied. After two contacts, he finally won these three talented people to his side. In the future, he would be able to do things by himself.
Someone you can trust.
"Cheers!" The four drank happily.
During this shock banquet, I heard people in the restaurant constantly talking about Su Chen's autopsy and solving the case in the lobby of the Criminal Department. The rumors became more and more sinister, and Su Chen was almost praised as a detective.
Since Su Chen had just arrived in Jinling a few days ago and rarely showed up, few people in Jinling had seen him. Even though people around him were talking about Su Lang Jiangzuo, they didn't realize that Su Chen was among them.
Eat wine quietly.
Xia Baosong smiled and said: "They conveyed it in a precise manner, as if they had seen it with their own eyes."
Su Chen also laughed and said: "It's a bit too exaggerated. How can you open your eyes and communicate with the souls of the dead? It's too outrageous."
At the next table, more than ten feet away, there was a gentleman in blue in his thirties. After hearing this, he showed a displeased expression, stood up and glared at Su Chen, saying, "Are you doubting Mr. Su's ability?
It all happened yesterday at the Criminal Department Yamen. Su Yixuan personally solved the case and rescued his beloved wife? Did everyone see it? My cousin works as an errand in the Criminal Department and saw it with his own eyes that day. Is there any lie? "
Su Chen and others were counted down on the spot and questioned. They were all dumbfounded. How could the other party maintain Su Chen's reputation like this without knowing the identities of several people? He was like a die-hard fan. Even Su Chen himself had no idea of being angry.
Liu Dong said: "This, this...is this? Yes, yes..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Jiang Tao: "Brother Liu, there is no need to argue, it is our fault."
Jiang Tao acted more tactfully. He saw that Su Chen didn't want to reveal his identity in front of the public. So even if he covered it up, he stood up and cupped his hands and said: "We haven't seen it? We just heard about it in the market. There are many versions from hearsay. I don't know which one to believe at the moment.
? Just now I had some doubts, it is true that I was not respectful enough to Mr. Su, don’t blame me! In fact, we all admire Jiangzuo Sulang’s talents and medical skills very much! "
After hearing this, the scholar in blue nodded slightly. Seeing that they had given in, he did not pursue it further and said: "Jiangzuo Sulang's poems have been widely circulated in the Tang Dynasty, and each song is more exquisite than the last.
Mr. Su's medical skills can even cure smallpox, which is unparalleled. This time he went to Jinling City to treat Empress Zhou and the second prince. It is so important. If someone slanders him, we admirers will never do it.
promise!"
Mr. Su smiled and nodded: "That Jiangzuo Su Lang will be very happy to know that you support him like this!"
"The great talents of the country must be supported!" The scholar in blue shouted the slogan, turned around and went back to his table to eat wine.
Jiang Tao, Liu Dong, Xia Baosong, and Su Chen looked at each other and couldn't help but smile.
"Now in the private market, Mr. Su's reputation is quite high. If he enters an official career in the future, the high-ranking officials in the imperial court, as well as Hanlin scholars and imperial students, will all pay high respect to Mr. Su!"
"With Mr. Su's talent and learning, he should be a sure shot at becoming the number one scholar in this year's class."
The three of them also admired Su Chen very much, so they gave him high praise and expectations.
Su Chen shook his head and sighed: "There is no first in literature, no second in martial arts. Whoever dares to speak about his own articles can win the favor of all the examiners and successfully become the top scorer in high school. It is difficult, too difficult."
When the three of them heard what Su Chen said, they also had some feelings. They agreed with this view. It was difficult to become a Jinshi, let alone a top scholar.
At this moment, a man holding a sword came to Su Chen's table and said expressionlessly: "My young master has invited Mr. Su, so let's go to the elegant pavilion next door to get together."
Su Chen was stunned, looked at the man holding the sword, and asked doubtfully: "Did you recognize who I am?"
"Young Master Su's name is like thunder, and is heard all over Jinling. Of course I have heard about it. I even saw the young master's portrait once and remembered it firmly." The man holding the sword is none other than Wei Ying.
Su Chen asked curiously: "Who is your young master?"
Wei Ying replied: "His surname is Meng. Mr. Su may not have met my son, but he is very fond of him. We are having a drink in the Yage. When Mr. Su goes over to meet him, we can get to know each other."
"Surnamed Meng?" Su Chen was a little curious. He quickly ran through his mind and couldn't remember any wealthy Meng families in the Southern Tang Dynasty.
There is no one with the surname Meng in the Song Party, so he shouldn’t be from the political enemy faction!
"Only me is invited?" Su Chen asked doubtfully.
Wei Ying nodded and said: "Yes, I only invite Mr. Su, and we can communicate for a while. After Mr. Su comes back, we can continue to have wine with our friends."
At this time, Bailang stood up and came to Su Chen's side. He had already seen the swordsman's extraordinary martial arts skills, and was worried that the opponent would suddenly assassinate him, so he did not leave Su Chen's side.
If the swordsman holding the sword had malicious intentions, Bai Lang would not be polite. Although he drank some wine, it was within the limit of his drinking capacity and he was not drunk at all.
"There are many friends and many ways. You can go and meet me, but this personal guard must also go with you." Su Chen stood up and wanted to know who this Master Meng was.
"No problem, Mr. Su, please!" Wei Ying stretched out his hand to lead the way.
Su Chen and Bai Lang followed, passed through the corridor on the second floor, and arrived at a high-end and spacious private room in the auxiliary building.
The door opened, and in the large private room inside, there was only a young man in white sitting there drinking alone. His appearance was extremely handsome, with fair skin, pink and phoenix eyes, thin eyebrows on the temples, and he was dressed in plain clothes. He was spotless, even for a beauty.
Even if the embryo changed into men's clothing, he might not be as good as this person.
"A woman disguised as a man?" Su Chen's first thought was that this person was a woman who deliberately disguised herself as a man. It was very common in movies and TV shows. However, he carefully observed the person's Adam's apple and chest and gave up this idea.
, he should be a man, and a handsome man at that.
The man in white clothes stood up, looked at Su Chen who entered the room, smiled faintly, cupped his hands and said, "My dear, Meng Xuanjue, I have met Jiangzuo Su Lang!"
