The old lady of the Li family in Longxi wants to hold a birthday banquet, and the people who come and go are either high-ranking officials and magnates, or the Qingliushi family, which has no shortage of oil and water in the stomach, so it is naturally impossible to set up a flowing water banquet like ordinary people, and the big fish and meat are for people to eat and drink.
The purpose of the people who came to the banquet was not this, in addition to showing favor to the Li family, the main purpose of these banquet attendees was to take advantage of this opportunity to get to know more people in the upper class circles, and knowing more people was a connection, which money could not buy.
Therefore, the entire front hall and middle hall include the courtyard of the two compartments, and there is no table of banquets, but only a few tables and tables are placed in the place that is not in the way, and some wine, melons and fruits, dairy products and some cold dishes are placed on them, and people can really take it on the spot when they are hungry and thirsty, and fill their stomachs.
Therefore, walking inside and outside the hall, under the trees and flowers, you can see groups of people sitting or standing side by side, smiling and talking in harmony, the atmosphere is elegant and gentle.
Yang Fan wandered around the crowd for a long time, and there were many people who were walking around like him, all of them were noble sons who wanted to talk to acquaintances, or officials and children of middle-class families who were dissatisfied with their current status and wanted to cling to famous families.
Because of the different purposes, Yang Fan's performance is very different from that of these people, these people are purposeful, once they find the target, they either smile and chat, or they come forward to salute and introduce themselves.
Only Yang Fan didn't know anyone, and he didn't want to deliberately make friends with anyone, so he looked around very leisurely.
Seeing this kind of performance, in the eyes of the little steward of the Li Mansion who was secretly staring at him, he naturally felt that the old butler had extraordinary eyesight, and this kid was indeed suspicious.
It's just that, so far, I haven't seen him take away the purse jade pendant of a certain noble son, nor have I seen him meet any simple and easy to deceive family sons and come forward to talk, but the melons and fruits, snacks, platters and other foods have been eaten by him a lot Yang Fan wandered around for a while, and then stopped in the left cross garden.
There is a large flower garden here, all kinds of flowers are in full bloom, fragrant, and there are relatively few customers in the garden, so it looks very quiet.
There is a long corridor in the flowers, the top of the herringbone slope, covered with tiles, each fang beam is painted with lush forests and bamboos, flowers, birds, insects and fish, mountains and rivers and clouds, gorgeous and abnormal.
There are four octagonal pavilions with heavy eaves at both ends and in the middle of the corridor, most of which are seated, talking and laughing.
The fenced bench at the nearest point of each pavilion is lined with a lot of wine and food.
Yang Fan took a cup of "Sanle Pulp", walked to the side, sat down against a painted pavilion pillar, cocked Erlang's legs, and looked around leisurely while taking a sip of wine.
Under the flower corridor, most of them are the children of some families, some of whom are born and cooked, some are old friends, some are new acquaintances, and there are also women among them.
Because the people who came to Li Mansion to celebrate their birthday today are not all Shandong scholars, but also local wealthy families in Chang'an.
The wind is very heavy, and it is common for female dependents to show up.
If someone brings a female dependent, and the female dependent is not familiar with the female dependant of the master's family, then it is not a rude act at that time to wander around the garden and talk to people generously without the place where the female dependant is placed in the back house.
Because of the new friends and women, the prince tried to show his demeanor and quality in front of the children of other families, so naturally he could only talk about elegance.
Among the elegance, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs, the most suitable thing to talk about is poetry.
While drinking, Yang Fan listened to the noble sons in the small pavilion next to him also moaning without disease, buzzing like a swarm of flies, and felt bored.
He came today only because he was invited by the Li family, otherwise according to his plan, he would not have taken the initiative to come to the door.
Especially after talking with Duguyu, he already had a new idea in his heart to cooperate with the family, and he was not in a hurry to take the initiative to contact these families.
However, he also knew that since the Li family remembered him as a little person and specially gave him an invitation, he must have some intentions and would never treat him as an ordinary greeting guest.
Yang Fan took a sip of wine and thought secretly: "Is it wrong for Mrs.
Li to say something to me, if so, he will not pick today, today he is an old birthday star, how can he have time to talk to me."
Then, I want to use this banquet to introduce someone to me, or to someone to whom I am introduced."
The people who can come to the Li family are all people with a certain status and power, and they have a wide range of contacts, so it is impossible not to see a single friend, so there are few people who sit idle.
One of the dozen or so people sitting and chatting in the pavilion turned around by chance and saw Yang Fan sitting alone, and couldn't help but be a little curious.
The children of the family rarely wear gold and silver and dress like nouveau riche, and he can't tell the origin of this person from Yang Fan's clothes.
I felt that this person was drinking leisurely and had an extraordinary bearing, so he got up and walked over.
This person's surname is Wang, his name is Wang Siyuan, and he was born in the Taiyuan Wang family.
Among the seven sects and five surnames, the Taiyuan Wang family has declined greatly since the early Tang Dynasty, of course, this decline is only relative to other major families, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and in the eyes of others, the Taiyuan Wang family is still an unattainable figure.
However, because of this, the children of the Wang family were more low-key, and lowered their posture, intending to make more friends with wealthy families in order to consolidate the status of the Wang family.
He saw this person sitting alone, with a leisurely demeanor, among the sons of many families, without any restraint, he thought that he was a child of a big family, so he wanted to make friends.
Wang Siyuan walked to Yang Fan's side, smiled and arched his hand: "Ask for advice, this brother has a big name."
Yang Fan was thinking about this question, secretly analyzing Li Mubai's intentions, and suddenly saw people talking politely, and he got up and returned the salute, saying: "The next surname is Yang, and the single name is a sail word, I don't know what Brother Tai is."
As soon as Wang Siyuan heard that his surname was Yang, his heart moved: "Could it be Hongnong Yang's" However, Yang Fan did not report his background, it stands to reason that those who have a prestige will report their family, which is not because the children of the family like to show off, but because this is the pride and respect for the family inheritance.
Yang Fan only said his name, but did not report to the county, Wang Siyuan was a little strange at first, and then connected the two words Yang Fan and thought about it, and suddenly remembered that he had heard the name of this person just now, and couldn't help but shout: "Ah, it's Yang Langzhong of the Criminal Department."
Yang Fan was a little surprised, he didn't expect this person to hear his name, and hurriedly said: "Exactly" "Ahh Wang Siyuan thought that Yang Fan was a son of a family, but he didn't expect that it was Yang Fan who offended Fan Yang Lu's family, he was disappointed in his heart, and said a few kind words insincerely, and then gave up his hand and said goodbye, his demeanor naturally still didn't have to say, but Yang Fan had already seen that this person's expression was slightly embarrassed, as if he had seen the wrong person, and couldn't help but laugh secretly.
Wang Siyuan returned to the pavilion and whispered Yang Fan's identity, and everyone in the pavilion looked at Yang Fan one after another.
The Lu family all returned to Fanyang, what a big deal this was, how could they not know it.
Although the conflict between Lu Binzhi and Yang Fan was secret, and some people wanted to cover it up, it slowly spread, and some of the core children of the Gaomen family already knew about it, and it was not the outside world that they were jealous of fighting for women, they knew the truth of the matter.
Because of the withdrawal of the Lu family, the major families have gained more benefits, and they do not reject this Yang Fan in their hearts, and they still have a kind of schadenfreude for the Lu family to suffer a "small loss", but that does not include these younger generations who do not know the price of firewood and rice.
They were from the same family as Lubin, so they naturally had a sense of common hatred.

Yang Fan, a son of the Han Shu clan, actually made Fan Yang's Lu family's sister-in-law disgraced, and even the old lady Lu was forced to return to Fanyang.
When Yang Fan came, he thought that the Li family also wanted big fish and meat to entertain the banquet, so he came on an empty stomach, but it turned out to be nothing like that.
He is young and strong, and he is a martial arts practitioner, and he has a large amount of food, and the bits and pieces he eats along the way can't fill his stomach at all.
Now I saw that among the food on the bench, there was a cold spell that was placed in the landscape of the garden villa, which looked very attractive, and the food on it was just right for my appetite, and those who were talking about the sons of the family, no one took it at all, so I unceremoniously brought it over, so I ate it neatly, and continued to think about the problem while eating.
When those few family members saw Yang Fan's behavior, they saw even more disdain, and whispered in a low voice, and several people stood up one after another and walked towards Yang Fan.
"Yang Langzhong is invited" Several people greeted Yang Fan with a spring breeze on their faces, and Yang Fan's train of thought was interrupted again, frowning slightly with some displeasure.
Several people turned a blind eye and reported their homes one after another, and a young man with a pimple face arched his hand and said: "Taiyuan Wang Siyuan" Yang Fan tried hard to swallow the extremely delicious smoked meat, raised his eyebrows and glanced at this person, and said in his heart: "This person must be Wang Siyuan's brother."
A square-headed, stout young man arched his hand and said, "Xingyang Zheng Yu" There are also four brothers from thirty to fifteen or sixteen years old, Yushu Linfeng and handsome faces arched their hands together: "Boling Cui Xiang, Cui Li, Cui Li, Cui Di" As soon as everyone came, the momentum was a little unkind, although their smiles and demeanor were impeccable, but after all, it was a group of young people, the city was not deep, and although the hostility was hidden deeply, with Yang Fan's experience, he still felt it immediately.
Yang Fan knew that these people had bad intentions, so he even stood up to salute him.
He lazily put down the plate of "garden" that he had emptied, and said lightly: "How" The man who called himself Cui Xiang said with a smile: "Today, you and I went to Mrs.
Li's birthday banquet together, which can be regarded as a fate."
I watched Brother Yang sit quietly and drink alone, which was lonely.
As the saying goes, it is better to be happy alone than to be happy with everyone.
We might as well take a love, a scene, an object or a birthday banquet scene in this Li Mansion garden as the topic, and answer the poem correctly, how to " Yang Fan was stunned for a moment, then frowned, and said with a faint smile: "You are the pride of the sky, can you be more boring?"
