Huo Chenan couldn't help but look back when he heard the voice.
A man with a high nose and deep eye sockets was standing behind him.
The man was holding a folding fan in his hand, dressed like a scholar, not tall, but with delicate eyebrows, red lips and white teeth, just like Dilireba, Gulinaza, and Hani Kezi in men's clothes.
He bowed and said, "I was really shocked when I heard you recite poems just now. I hope you will forgive me for disturbing you unintentionally."
He spoke fluent Mandarin without any accent from outside the Great Wall, which made Huo Chenan wonder if he was a stranger.
Although he was surprised, Huo Chenan still politely returned the greeting and said, "No problem."
Seeing Huo Chenan's generosity, the man continued, "I'm Qi Muge, may I know your name?"
"I'm Huo... Yuanjia." Huo Chenan thought about it and used the name of the hero. Anyway, they all have the surname Huo and are all family.
"Brother Yuanjia, are you from Bianliang?" Qi Muge asked curiously.
"No?" Huo Chenan shook his head and said.
"Oh, that's strange, why did Brother Yuanjia write "The warm wind makes the tourists drunk, and they mistake Hangzhou for Bianzhou"?" Qi Muge asked curiously.
"Well, I have a friend who is from Bianliang, and I also wrote it because of my feelings, just because of my feelings." Huo Chenan said with a laugh.
Qi Muge nodded to show his understanding, and then he said: "I am also very interested in poetry. I wonder if Brother Yuanjia has time? I would like to invite Brother Yuanjia to have a drink, okay?"
Huo Chenan saw that he was sincere and didn't look like a bad person, and there were free drinks, so he naturally agreed.
So the two found a small restaurant by the West Lake.
After they sat down, they ordered a pot of wine and a few dishes.
The shopkeeper took out a white porcelain wine pot, skillfully poured a spoonful of wine from the wine jar, and poured the wine from the mouth of the pot, without leaving a drop, and without spilling a drop. One spoonful of wine is just enough for one pot, and Huo Chenan couldn't help but applaud.
The shopkeeper smiled and said: "Nothing special, just practice."
The wine and food were served, and the two chatted while drinking:
"Brother Yuanjia, how old are you this year?"
Qi Muge asked.
"Nineteen, how about Brother Qi?" Huo Chenan said.
"Oh? Then I am a few years older, this year I am twenty and two."
"Then you are the eldest brother, come on, eldest brother, I toast you a glass."
"I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it, with Brother Huo's talent, he is more than enough to be my teacher, how can I be worthy of this title of eldest brother?" Qi Muge declined.
"You don't deserve it, just don't treat me as a brother." Huo Chenan said angrily in a dress.
Qi Muge had no choice but to agree: "Okay, then I will be shameless today."
Then the two of them drank the wine in the cup.
"Brother Huo, why don't you write a poem today?" Qi Muge said.
"Then I will show my ugliness."
Huo Chenan thought for a moment, he picked up the wine glass on the table and drank another full glass, and then slowly said: "A new song and a glass of wine, last year's weather and old pavilions. When will the sunset return? Helplessly, the flowers fall, and the familiar swallows return. I wander alone in the fragrant path of the small garden."
Qimuge was shocked on the spot.
"Good, good, good." He said three good words in a row, and his excitement could not be added.
"Brother Huo, any praise is pale and powerless at this moment, I toast you."
After saying that, Qi Muge drank three cups in a row.
Huo Chenan thought: Is this the ancient times all in the wine? Helplessly, Huo Chenan also accompanied three cups.
Qi Muge recalled the poem that Huo Chenan had just written. He was impressed by its exquisiteness and the mood it described. He looked at the handsome and talented guy in front of him and asked, "I wonder if you have any achievements?" Huo Chenan smiled and shook his head and said, "Brother, you don't recognize my clothes, do you? I am just an ordinary servant." Qi Muge said angrily, "The court of Dashun is full of corruption, and the emperor is incompetent. He even let a genius like me be relegated to the status of a great man. Being a servant of a family. It's not worth it for a brother to stand up for his brother."
"Hahaha." Hearing this, Huo Chenan laughed heartily and said, "I don't want to do this. Even if I have a high position and a lot of money, what's the use? After death, there is only a two-foot-wide coffin."
Qimuge was stunned when he heard this. He couldn't help but sighed, "Brother Huo is still very clear-headed!"
Huo Chenan picked up the wine glass and said, "Brother, you are so cool, cheers!"
"Cheers!"
The two chatted and drank like this, talking about everything under the sun, and soon they were both a little drunk.
"Brother Huo, I can't do it anymore. I have something to do and I have to say goodbye. I don't know how to find you in the future?"
"Brother, if you are in Hangzhou, you can go to Wuwei Escort Agency. If you leave Hangzhou, I don't know where the next stop is."
Qimuge nodded when he heard this, and he bowed and said, "Then take care, brother Huo, we will meet again."
Huo Chenan also bowed and said, "See you later."
Watching Qimuge check out and leave, Huo Chenan was still a little dazed. He could make friends with a good brother just by taking a walk. He was stupid and rich.
...
After Qimuge returned to the inn where he stayed, he changed his long gown and put on Hu people's clothes. He took off the hairpin on his head, and his black hair fell like a waterfall, revealing her original appearance.
She was the first female Khan who unified the grassland, known as the flower of the grassland, Qimuge.
And Huo Chenan really guessed it right. Qimuge was Chuan'er. Her father was the leader of the previous large tribe, and her mother was a Hu Ji from the Western Regions.
After Qimuge came back, several Hu people came over immediately.
"Khan! Where have you been?"
"I went out to have some wine."
"Is there no wine in the inn?"
"Are you questioning me?"
The Hu people hurriedly put their hands on their chests and said, "I dare not. It's just too dangerous outside. It's safest for Khan to be with us."
Qimuge snorted coldly and said, "Humph, we have already penetrated deep into the hinterland of Dashun. Where is not dangerous? Don't worry about nothing."
"What do you mean by worrying about nothing?" The Hu people asked his companions beside him in confusion, and the other Hu people also shook their heads blankly.
Qimuge rolled his eyes in disdain. He was speechless about these reckless men who only knew how to fight and kill.
She said coldly to her subordinates, "Don't forget the purpose of our trip."
All the Hu people saluted with their chests when they heard this.
...
Huo Chenan came out of the tavern and strolled along the West Lake.
There was no way. It wasn't that he didn't want to be with Su Ruyi, but Su Ruyi insisted on taking care of Su Linglong. The two sisters had been sleeping in the same bed for the past two days, so he had no chance to do it.
He couldn't help but sigh and wondered when they could sleep together.
At this moment, he found that the people around him were all rushing to the front. Huo Chenan couldn't help but become curious. What excitement was there to see?
