He Lingchuan's smile also widened bit by bit: "So do what you want."
He was equally curious about Fang Canran. "I'm going to call the prince together."
Fang Canran waved his hand: "I invited you just now, Your Highness has something to do at night, so I declined."
He Lingchuan gave up as soon as he heard it, and the two abandoned the boat and went ashore.
Seeing that he was about to go out, two Tongxinwei followed him.
Fang Canran smiled and said, "Young Master He has such a big crowd."
He Lingchuan shook his head: "Being watched by people all the time, you can't rest assured to play when you go out. It's a lot less fun."
He turned his head and said to the two people: "Boss Fang and I will go out to have some fun. It's very safe. How about you two resting here? I'll ask the cook to serve you roast lamb ribs with wine."
The two looked at each other, and stopped walking without insisting.
The cook of Pianxiang Villa is really good at roasting sheep. A few days ago, Fu Shanyue always ate roast sheep and drank honey wine with He Lingchuan.
Besides, if he went out to socialize with the Jinjiao family, what danger could he have?
He Lingchuan kept his word, asked the servant to go to the back kitchen to order wine and food, and then walked to the door with Fang Canran.
It would be inconvenient to be followed by these two guys tonight.
In fact, he keenly felt that Tongxinwei had been slacking off on his stalking lately, whether he was following him or not, he didn't run after his ass like he did a few days ago.
In addition to Fu Shanyue going to protest against Tongxinwei for the inconvenience caused to his life, and thinking about the strange flashes of Tianluoxing, He Lingchuan vaguely understood the reason.
Tiangong and Yaodi no longer bothered to pay attention to them. They were lazy, and Tongxinwei didn't need to be so dedicated.
The carriage stopped at the entrance of Pianxiang Villa, and the two of them were loaded on to Yuexiang Villa.
……
When I went out, I encountered the evening rush hour in Lingxu City, and the road was congested.
When the two arrived at Yuexiang Villa, the night sky was already full of stars.
It got its name because it is adjacent to Yuexiang Lake. The manor was built by the water, and half of the lake view is monopolized.The ancient willows hang low by the water, the late osmanthus sends fragrance, there are mandarin ducks playing in the water on the lake, the deer flocks on the grass, and the selected water lilies have been in bloom until now, and the color is as tender as a girl's beauty.
Standing at the water's edge and watching the crimson red leaves, I feel that autumn is refreshing.Of course, non-mountain guests will not be able to enjoy the elaborate scenery here.Because it is outside the scope of Yuexiang Villa, the lakeside cannot hide the decline of late autumn.
He Lingchuan has had a few drinks in the various restaurants on Tianjie Street, and the business is very prosperous; however, Yuexiang Villa does not follow this route, it pays attention to privacy, the huge villa only has seven gardens, The courtyards all draw lake water into the courtyard, each has a different theme, and you can hear Yo Yo Luming, and only entertain one table of guests.
There is a long distance between the courtyards and the courtyards are separated by flower and tree gardens.Even if the distinguished guests shout and make noise as much as they want, it will not affect others.
The core is just two words:
private.
Whether it's a business negotiation, a heart-to-heart meeting with friends, or doing other things here, it's all very special.
The only downside is that it is expensive.
Of course, as a guest invited by the host, He Lingchuan doesn't have to worry about the price of the dishes tonight.
Fang Canran led He Lingchuan into the Fuqu Courtyard. The huge lotus in the pool was blooming, which was different from the variety outside. After nightfall, the fluorescent spores placed in the lotus cores lit up and turned into beautiful lanterns. And shy beauty.
This is a three-story abode, with drinking and dining on the first floor, drinking tea and playing the piano on the second floor, and couches for guests to rest on the third floor.
The two sat down at the table, and He Lingchuan immediately said, "This doesn't seem like a new building."
"Yuexiang Villa has a history of 200 years, and its original name was Jingliuzhuang. Does He Xiao have any impression of this name?"
Of course He Lingchuan shook his head.
How did he know the origins of these manors in Lingxu City?
"The first owner who built Jingliu Manor was surnamed Huang. He passed down his family in Lingxu City for 200 years, and finally declined. This Jingliu Manor happened to be built when his family was turning from prosperity to decline, so it was sold before it was fully completed. It's gone." Fang Canran had already ordered the dishes, and the handsome servant brought a small lotus-shaped square basin with two golden cups soaking in it, "The temperature is just right, come here! Try the signature here, Fox Lady Wine. "
Under the square basin, there is a small stove.
Listen to chilling cicadas in late autumn, warm wine and talk about spirit deficiency.How many people are interested in this?
"Is this wine made by a fox demon?"
"It was indeed at first." Fang Canran smiled, "It is said that the owner of Jingliu Village has done a lot of favors to Qingqiu Fox Demon, and the latter rewarded him with an exclusive recipe for wine making. Later, this wine recipe has been handed down along with Jingliuzhuang. Jingliuzhuang The owner of Liuzhuang, on the contrary, no one knows."
He Lingchuan said casually: "There seem to be countless such things in Lingxu City?"
"Isn't it? It's like crucian carp crossing the river. If you swim, you will die." Fang Canran said leisurely, "The second owner of Jingliuzhuang is a spy sent by other countries. They use Jingliuzhuang to Concealing his identity, he has been active in Lingxu City for several years. After these people were arrested, Jingliu Village was also put up for sale, and the Golden Horn family bought it, changed its name, and renovated it, so that today's Yuexiang Villa .”
He Lingchuan was stunned: "So this is the territory of spies?"
"Isn't it?" Fang Canran poured wine for him, "Lingxu City has the reputation of being the best city in the world, how many outsiders are jealous and coveted?"
He Lingchuan took a sip, the color of the wine was like jasper, sweet and soft, it entered the throat smoothly, with a hint of fruity aroma.
Drink a few more sips, and you will feel fluid in your mouth and tongue.
"Sure enough, it's distinctive."
As soon as they entered the door, they asked the maid to send the fish bucket to the back kitchen.Now, the new chef of Yuexiang Villa is also serving special dishes.
The fat-headed fish was indeed the first to be greeted, and it was made into a fish for two meals. The fat fish head was deep-fried first, and then it was grilled with spicy garnishes, and the fish skin was half-crisp and half-soft. , Half spicy and half sweet, the most flavorful.
He Lingchuan really didn't expect that the first time he came to this world to eat a large fish head grilled with charcoal, it would be in such a stylish place.In the past, they were all stalls on the side of the road, moving a small horse to occupy the sidewalk, and pairing it with a few bottles of the cheapest beer.
There seemed to be a wind blowing outside, and the trees were rustling.In this kind of weather, nestling in a luxury house, eating grilled fish and drinking good wine, is really very comfortable.
The other dozen or so small fish were fried until they were dry and crispy, sprinkled with some pepper, and each bite was crunchy.
The kitchen uses local materials, and a special plate of pickled plums is also presented.
The hundred-year-old plum trees in Yuexiang Villa have a great harvest. They are picked and pickled with salt, sugar, wine and plums, which are loved by adults and children.He Lingchuan put one in his mouth and gnawed it. It was sour, crispy and sweet.
Fang Canran also ate two pieces of fish, and then said in a clear voice: "The case of the immortal medicine, how does Brother He think it will be closed?"
"I don't know." He Lingchuan said honestly, "I don't know much about everything in Lingxu City, the royal court, the emperor, the gods, and even Qingyang Guoshi, hey! I don't know what the outcome of this case will be. "
"You also missed an important faction."
"Oh?" He Lingchuan asked casually, "Which side?"
"Fan Yao Nation." Fang Canran said, "If Chiyan Nation and Treasure Tree Nation hadn't insisted on a thorough investigation, this matter might have been settled long ago."
Yes, He Lingchuan sometimes forgets the power behind him.
"The scary thing about this case is that after the case is closed, the turmoil may not subside for a while."
"That's true." He Lingchuan raised his chin towards the lake outside the window, "This place looks like beautiful mountains and rivers, but it is actually dangerous inside. I have never really enjoyed a day of peace in Lingxu City these days."
Fang Canran laughed and said: "That's Mr. He going through all kinds of hardships and dangers, and he has to bump into the mountain of swords. Look at those ordinary people outside who only want to eat two meals a day, what kind of danger can they encounter?"
"Really?" He Lingchuan smirked slightly, "Then the servants of Panshan's house sweep the floor and cook to earn money to support their families, so why did they get into a disaster?"
Prince Huan wanted to teach him and Fu Shanyue a lesson, but in the end he took his anger out on the servants and the house.
The fate of ordinary people is like duckweed, which shatters when a big wave hits inexplicably.
Don't think that you can live with it, even if you are in the imperial capital.
The black fish that Fang Canran caught was also cleaned up at this time, and when it was served on the table, it was a hot color.
The new chef chooses baked fish. The thick fish fillets have all their spines removed. They are first coated with starch and baked quickly, then put into a casserole and baked slowly with tempeh.
The ham soup was baked in.
I don't know what secret seasoning the chef added. The taste of the fish is very layered. After He Lingchuan's aftertaste, it still has a milky aroma?
The chili looks like a big piece of red, but it is not spicy at all, it just makes diners feel warm.What is Yuexiang Villa?If the honorable guests are allowed to blush, wipe their tears and runny noses, their style will be smashed to pieces.
Fang Canran asked him, "What do you think of this cook?"
"Yes." He Lingchuan was full of praise without raising his head, "It's really a rare delicacy!"
A small border town in another world can gather strange flavors, but he has never tasted such delicious fish.
Fang Canran quickly poured wine for him: "Then you are welcome, use more."
As expected, He Lingchuan was not polite to him, and buried himself in eating fish and drinking.In just a quarter of an hour, several catties of big mullet were eaten to pieces.
This fish really tastes better the more you eat it, the more you eat it the more enjoyable it is.
Um?Fun?
These two words flashed across He Lingchuan's mind, as if something was wrong.But he was in a daze right now, and he didn't know whether it was because he had eaten too much fish or drunk too much wine, and his neck could barely support his head.
With a snap of the chopsticks, He Lingchuan slipped under the table.
Fang Canran grabbed him:
"He Xiao? Are you okay?"
He Lingchuan's eyes were half closed and his pupils were dilated.
"You can't drink too much." Fang Canran couldn't help laughing, "You really can't walk anymore?"
He Lingchuan's eyes suddenly opened, and he straightened his body: "I have to go, go, a hut!"
This reaction was similar to cheating a corpse, Fang Canran was startled by him, pointed to the back hall and said: "The secret room is at the back, shall I help you?"
In places like Fuquyuan, buckets are not placed directly behind the screen like ordinary inns, but special toilets are built, called secret rooms.
