Chapter 66 The Wind and Moon in the Capital (1)

Zhanlong and his fourth sister were like husband and wife along the way, loving and loving, and they could not say endless love words. They traveled around the mountains and rivers during the day, and walked forward at night to lingering and enjoyed their love. Zhanlong really hoped that the road to the capital would never be completed, so that he could be with his fourth sister forever.

However, no matter how slow you walk, you will soon enter Kaifeng realm.

This day I came to Bianjing City.

Bianjing City is worthy of being the capital of the Song Dynasty. The city gate is twice as big as the gates of other cities and is strictly guarded. The defenders on the city tower are all the most elite troops of the Song Dynasty.

The siblings discussed it and decided to visit Pan Renmei, the Minister of War.

After all, my father and Lord Pan have a deep friendship.

After entering the city, he found Pan's mansion. Zhan Long was the first time he came to the capital. Pan Renmei's mansion was very generous. There were more than a hundred slaves in the mansion, and the slaves in the mansion were divided into three levels.

The best slaves were all trusted by the adults, ladies, young masters and ladies. They served their masters in close proximity and were deeply favored by their masters. The middle slaves were the guards and servants who guarded the palace.

The inferior slave is an ordinary servant.

Pan Bao was welcomed by Zhanlong. Pan Bao and Zhanlong were about the same age as Zhanlong, but they were shorter than Zhanlong. They were also thin and dry, with ugly appearance, but their eyes were very elite, but they were just a little stuttering when speaking. Pan Bao was very enthusiastic, Liu Liulang, Yongqi, Bao Master... Do you still know him?

The fourth lady smiled and said: Pan Bao, you went to my house so tall a few years ago, why didn’t you see me in a few years?

Pan Bao smiled embarrassedly: Fourth sister, Mr. Bao Bao... has not developed well since childhood, so you... don't make fun of me, come home quickly.

When he arrived at the mansion, Zhan Long learned that Pan Renmei had not returned to court yet.When Mrs. Pan learned that Zhan Long and Miss Fourth were coming, she came over to visit her.

Mrs. Pan is wearing jewelry, wearing gold and silver, with a gorgeous appearance and a plump and attractive figure, and she is indeed charming.

If it weren't for seeing it with your own eyes, Zhan Long wouldn't believe that the plump beauty in front of him was actually Pan Bao's mother.

In terms of age, Mrs. Pan should be a middle-aged woman in her thirties and under forty, but in terms of appearance, she is no different from a girl in her twenties. Zhan Long even thinks he may be Pan Bao's wife.

Zhan Long thought that Mrs. Pan must be a beautiful woman when she was young, no wonder Pan Renmei was willing to stop marrying a concubine for her.

Mrs. Pan's eyes lit up when she saw Zhan Long's appearance. She felt that the young man was young, gentle, handsome and a little heroic.

Liulang, Yongqi, you are finally here.Liulang, you and your sister are indeed the best among people. Not to mention Yongqi's national beauty, she was summoned to the palace.After seeing you Liulang today, I realized why His Highness King Jin protects you.

Zhan Long hurriedly said a few humility, and then Mrs. Pan asked Pan Bao to arrange a room for Zhan Long and Miss Fourth to live.

It's not time for lunch, and Pan Renmei hasn't come back yet.Zhanlong was led by Pan Bao and walked around the mansion. The high walls and courtyard of Pan Mansion were very spacious, with birds singing and flowers scenting, and the air was fresh.

Suddenly, Zhan Long saw the back of a beautiful woman walking by the corridor and saw the back of the beauty. She had long hair draped over her shoulders, tall figure, straight back and thin waist, wearing a pure white dress on her upper body, and the bottom was accompanied by an embroidered floor-to-ceiling silk skirt with excellent quality.

As soon as you look at this outfit, you can tell that the woman is not a maid in the mansion. Zhan Long wanted to see more and more what kind of appearance this beauty looked like. Pan Bao, who is this?

Pan Bao smiled and said: Yes...my sister...sister, Pan Feng Ah.

Zhan Long suddenly realized that Pan Feng, the future concubine of Emperor Taizong of Song, Zhao Guangyi, was indeed a lady from a noble family and elegant.

When Pan Feng heard someone talking, he turned around and Zhan Long finally saw Pan Feng's appearance clearly. It was so clear and thorough. The first feeling that Pan Feng's appearance gave Zhan Long was stunning, his charming face, beautiful and distinctive outlines, his soul-stirring watery eyes, and his skin that looked like ice and snow.

It's like Mrs. Pan is simply carved from the same mold.

Pan Bao greeted Pan Feng over, and Pan Feng looked arrogant and looked at Zhan Long, then looked at the fourth lady, and said hello lukewarmly.

The fourth lady said coldly, "Pan's girl, do you still remember me?"Ten years ago, when we first met, the windmill that Uncle Pan bought for us. If your windmill broke, he insisted on robbing me. If I didn’t give it to me, we started fighting.

Pan Feng finally remembered it, it turned out to be you, I forgot about your childhood.Sister Yang’s family, this time I came to Beijing, should I visit relatives or be promoted to a higher position?

The fourth lady said softly: My family has no relatives in the capital.

Zhan Long said: My sister is the saint who came to the palace to meet with the order.

Pan Feng is also a smart person in Bingxue. Oh, it turns out that he was chosen by the emperor, so congratulations to the Yang sister.Which of our sisters in the capital is not the princes and ministers who are ashamed of the moon and flowers?I was forced to rely on my relationship and went through the back door, and even I was wiped out.Sister Yang is so lucky. After entering the palace, if she makes the emperor happy, she will become the concubine and your Yang family will be prosperous...

Zhan Long snorted and said: Our Yang family generals are in the battle for the bloody battle, and they are born and die for the Song Dynasty. They are promoted not by going to the back door, but by fighting for their passion and heads.

The fourth lady felt happy and comfortable when she heard Zhan Long's words, but Pan Feng said: Oh!You Ah, you are not an official in the capital and don’t know the major affairs of the government. Haven’t you heard that the emperor is now reducing the military power of military generals in the court?

Zhan Long shook his head and said: I don’t know, what’s going on?

Pan Feng was about to explain in detail that at this time, a family came to report that the master was back.

The four of them hurried to the front hall to meet Pan Renmei.

As soon as I entered the hall, I saw a middle-aged man full of energy, radiant and slightly obese man sitting in the center of the hall. Pan Renmei was about forty years old and had a smile on her face, but her temperament exuded a solemn and majestic momentum everywhere. Zhan Long knew that a person with such a grand demeanor would be the first person in the court.

There were also Mrs. Pan and several court officials in official uniforms sat in the hall. Zhan Long saw the officials' uniforms covered with sun, moon and stars, and knew that they must be high-ranking officials in the court.

As soon as Pan Feng saw Pan Renmei, he had an intimate hug. The father and daughter hugged each other affectionately, regardless of the slightest concern that so many people were watching in the hall.

After Pan Feng acted coquettishly, Daddy, why don’t you have any mansion in the past few days?

Pan Renmei said: My son, my father has been busy with official business recently.

Immediately, Pan Renmei turned her face and said to Zhan Long: You are Liulang, right?Have you grown so tall?When I saw you a few years ago, I was wearing open-crotch pants, haha.

Zhan Long laughed, stepped forward, bowed and said: Liulang has met Uncle Pan.

Pan Renmei ordered her family to watch the seat, and then introduced the official to Zhan Long. It turned out that they were all important officials of the Ministry of War, all of them were their immediate superiors. Zhan Long had greeted him one by one.

Immediately, Pan Renmei arranged a banquet to welcome Zhanlong and Miss Four.

In the afternoon, Pan Renmei asked Pan Bao and Pan Feng to accompany Zhan Long and Miss Four, and she was busy with some things in the Ministry of War, so she led several subordinates into the study early to discuss military and political affairs.

When they first arrived in the capital, Zhan Long and Miss Four were not familiar with the place here. Pan Bao volunteered to take Zhan Long and Miss Four to visit the capital. At night, they went to Longting Lake for a midnight snack. Zhan Long and Miss Four agreed readily, and Pan Feng wanted to go too. Zhan Long agreed happily, and the four of them walked out of Pan's mansion together.

As soon as you walk into the gate of Longting, the first thing you see is a big lake. The lake is as calm as a mirror. When the sun shines, countless dazzling spots of light flash on the lake.

The lake water is like a pool of tempting old wine, quiet and light, like a bright and blue mirror in the jade curtain.

The lakeside is full of graceful willow trees. The color of the willow trees is brown and the bark is very rough, but the willow branches droop and the green leaves are rippling like a slump in the boat.

The four of them were talking and laughing, and walked along the passage and soon arrived in front of the Yudai Bridge. The Yudai Bridge was 40 meters long, 18 meters wide from east to west and 7 meters high. It was built with five holes underneath, also known as the Five-hole Bridge.

From a distance, the Jade Belt Bridge looks like a long white ribbon.

Crossing the Yudai Bridge, passing through Songhu Gate, he came to the foot of Longting Hall. He looked up and saw a magnificent palace built of huge blue bricks on the top of countless steps.

Standing in front of the gate of Longting Hall, looking into the distance, you can see the entire Bianjing City.

At this time, the west was dusk and everyone was hungry.

Pan Feng is the same age as Miss Four. As the children of the housekeeper, the clothes she wears are the most famous double-sided embroidered silk in Suzhou and Hangzhou. After sewing them in Bianjing City, they are elegant and elegant when worn.

Since Zhan Long entered the door, he was moved by Pan Feng's beauty. Although Pan Feng is not as cool as the natural Gao Hua who is the fourth sister, the charming charm and charm in her bones are never possessed by the fourth sister.

Women are all blamed for others praising themselves for being beautiful. Pan Feng was defeated in the palace and was naturally jealous of the fourth lady's natural beauty and beauty.

So I kept talking to Miss Fourth, either saying that the clothes IV were not good-looking and were too old-fashioned, or I thought that Miss Fourth would scream too beautifully whenever she saw a fresh scene, and she would not have the mood of a lady.

Zhan Long felt uncomfortable when he heard Pan Feng's words.

Although Pan Feng also knew that her father and Yang Linggong were close friends, in her noble eyes, she had not yet seen the descendant of Zhan Long, the surrendered general.

The three of them were together, and they couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.

But Pan Bao's arrival immediately changed the current situation. Pan Bao grinned and grabbed Miss Four's slender hand and said: Qi...Sister, I...I miss you so much in the past few years.You are getting more and more beautiful as you grow older, and later... Me, I will treat you...

The fourth lady saw that Pan Bao was too enthusiastic about her, but she felt uncomfortable.

After all, Pan Bao is the son of Supreme Commander Pan Renmei, so the fourth lady barely walked with Pan Bao with a smile, but took her hand back from Pan Bao.

Pan Bao laughed foolishly, while looking at the beautiful and handsome young lady in Miss Four, while saying to Zhan Long: Looking back... Sister AhAh, what do you want to eat, just say...

Zhan Long heard it was funny, Pan Feng glared at Pan Bao and said: While staying there, he still talks hard, why are you doing leisurely?

Seeing that the sky was getting dark outside, Pan Feng suggested: It’s rare to meet today. My father is busy with government affairs, so I will give up all the friendship of the landlord on my behalf.

Pan Feng and Pan Bao seem to come here to have midnight snacks often, so they walk to a very particular store and ask the store to serve them.

Zhan Long saw that Pan Bao and Pan Feng were not around, so he said to the fourth lady: Fourth sister, those who abandon me should not stay yesterday, and those who disturb my heart will have more worries today.If you don’t like Pan Feng, you can not think of her. Even if she is by your side, what’s the difference between her and being far away?It would not be a wise move to make herself unable to be happy every day because of her existence.

The fourth lady snorted and said: Anyway, I feel uncomfortable when I see her.Who made him look down on me?

Zhan Long said: When we get inside later, we will eat hard, eat whatever is delicious and expensive.Anyway, their family has money, and after eating... I rented a small boat with my sister to swim the lake and watch the night view.

The fourth lady nodded and said: Liulang, is the in-laws that King Jin protects you, Pan Feng Ah?

Zhan Long was surprised and said: I haven't thought about this before, but don't worry, if you don't like her, I won't marry you.

The fourth lady said with slightest thought: What does it have to do with me? His Highness, King of Jin, personally proposed marriage, who dares not to obey?

Zhan Long snorted, "No matter whether it is King Jin or the Emperor, if I don't want to be my wife, he just wants to marry her, and I will leave her back when I turn around."

The fourth lady was moved by Zhan Long's heroic determination and held Zhan Long's hand. Liulang, my sister really admires your courage, but I don't want you to do stupid things for me.

At this time, Pan Feng and Pan Bao came over and called them to have dinner.

On Longting Lake where night falls, you can see the towering towers on both sides of the shore, merchants gathering, the magnificent smoke and moon, and the golden powder gathering. The singing of the brothels stirs the dark green dream-like river, making people feel like they fall into poetry and paintings.

The four of them sat down at the open-air food table near the river. Pan Bao was generous and ordered all the special dishes in the snack workshop. The shop knew that Pan Bao was a rich man, so of course he used his heart to serve him.

A little while, the wine and food arrived. The first dish was called Siquanbao smoked fish. The ingredients were selected from the live silver carp, crucian carp, black carp, and yellow croaker, which are specialized in the lake. Through flooding, shade and steaming, and then mixed with refined sugar, tea, reed leaves and other seasonings, and grilled with warm fire. After the color was presented, the color was golden and red, and it was already full of fragrance before it was eaten. After eating, the fish meat was tender but not loose, and the bone spurs were all removed, which made people praise it.

Zhanlong used chopsticks to pick up the smoked fish for Miss Fourth. Miss Fourth praised the store's skills repeatedly. Pan Bao also picked it up and gave it to Miss Fourth. Miss Fourth was chewing the delicious food sent by Zhanlong, but pushed the plate aside.

Pan Feng saw it and kicked Zhan Long under the table with his feet, signaling him to take care of him, but Zhan Long pretended not to see it and ignored it.

Pan Feng was angry and kicked Zhan Long hard again. Zhan Long yelled and said: Sister Pan Feng, you accidentally kicked me.

Pan Feng blushed and bulged with her cheeks, and was lucky to Zhan Long.

The store brought another second dish, braised river crab.

Kaifeng hairy crabs have a big meat and delicious taste. In addition, the store has excellent workmanship, which makes people drool. Zhanlong picked another one of the biggest ones for the fourth lady and said: Now the river crabs have just passed the hatching period and will eat them at will. If they eat them again in August and September, it will be the time for the crabs to be fat.

Pan Bao looked at the fourth lady eating foolishly. Pan Feng was so angry that he knocked on the table with chopsticks and said: Liulang, don’t forget what you do?Don't always think about your fourth sister, I'm hungry.

Pan Bao immediately stood up and wanted to pick up food for Pan Feng, but was stopped by Pan Feng, obviously waiting for the Dragon War.

The store happened to serve the dishes again, and this dish is Kaifeng's most famous braised wild duck.

When making, you must choose ducks on your head for a year. Since wild ducks grow into small fish, shrimps and aquatic plants in the lake, their meat is even more tender and delicious. After high-temperature braised, soaked in essential oil and then fumigated with charcoal fire to make the skin golden and crispy, and have a complete color and flavor.

Zhanlong was indisputable, and used a prepared knife to cut the duck open, and distributed the two duck front legs (wings) to the four ladies, and distributed the two duck back legs to himself. He chopped off the duck head with one knife and distributed it to Pan Bao. Finally, he used a knife to cut off the duck's butt and sent it to Pan Feng, saying: Sister Pan Feng, everyone has a share this time, so don't pick it anymore.

Pan Feng looked at Zhan Long's assignment and was a little unhappy. He was about to say something, but Pan Bao said first: Sixth... Brother Six, why did you have to give me the duck... duck head?

Zhanlong said: You Ah!Haven’t you heard that this person can replenish whatever he eats?My fourth sister and I are both working as detectives, so we have to eat duck wings and duck legs, so that we can run faster.As for you, your tongue is not good and your eyes are small, so why don’t you eat it quickly...

Zhan Long turned around and saw Pan Feng facing his luck. He looked at the big duck butt in front of Pan Feng. He really didn't know what to say.

But Miss Four was so happy that she sprayed the crab meat in her mouth under the table. Pan Feng stood up with a red face and said loudly: Yang Liulang, you...you are so angry!

After saying that, he pushed the chair away and ran to the lake angrily to get angry.

The store brought the fourth dish, stir-fried round fish rolls.Zhan Long was about to go to the clip, but the fourth lady stopped him and said: Liulang, you are a little too much.

After saying that, he pointed at Pan Feng by the river with his eyes. Zhan Long smiled relaxedly and said to Pan Bao: Go and call your sister to come and have dinner. Also, today we are here to visit you. You can pay for the wine. My fourth sister said you are stingy.

Pan Bao chewed the duck's head hard and said: That's... yes, yes.

As he said that, he stood up and ran to the river to call Pan Feng. Zhan Long quietly said to the fourth lady: Fourth sister, a woman like Pan Feng is used to being arrogant in the house. If I don’t let her down, if I really let her come to our Yang family as a wife, I wouldn’t have used you and a few sisters-in-law now.

Miss Fourth smiled and said: Do you really plan to let her be the daughter-in-law of the Yang family?Little bad guy, are you interested in her?

Zhan Long found that his words were a bit bad, so he wiped Miss Fourth's thighs under the table, hugged Miss Fourth's waist one after another, and said affectionately: Sister Fourth, I'm making an example, you take it seriously.Don’t you know that I only have you in my heart, my good sister.

Seeing that the fourth sister looked like a peach blossom, she was shy.

Zhan Long sighed and said: This matter is not something I want or not, but depends on my father's intention. Although Pan Feng is as beautiful as a fairy, she is not the kind I like. To be honest, if half of Pan Feng can be like you, I will be careless.

The fourth lady blushed and said softly: What do you think I'm doing? Besides, is it okay for me to be that good?

Zhanlong pointed to the rising moon in the sky and said: Sister is like the bright moon in the sky, and is always unique in my heart.

The fourth lady's heart trembled slightly, she held up the wine pot silently, filled the war dragon, and said: A good man is determined to maintain peace and stability. I hope you will be a hero who stands tall in the future. This cup, I will respect you, and I will always support you.

Zhan Long drank it all and heard Pan Feng say: You brothers and sisters are so elegant, I won’t bother you, Pan Bao!Set the accounts and leave.

Pan Bao grinned and said: Me, I... haven't eaten yet.

Pan Feng snorted, took out a certain amount of silver, threw it on the table, and said: I know how to eat, are you embarrassed to lose it?If you don’t leave, I’ll leave!

As he said that, he left without saying goodbye.Pan Bao didn't care about Pan Feng's anger and started to eat voraciously.
