Although Li Dalang said that "health-preserving tea ceremony" is good.

But when he brought Ouyang Rong, Qin Ying, and Lin Cheng to Yunshui Pavilion, he certainly couldn't order the special health-preserving tea ceremony on the third floor.

It's just a matter of borrowing a private room, drinking afternoon tea, chatting, and getting to know each other well.

I won’t order some special tea ceremony services.

This is probably the reason why Qin Ying acquiesced to Li Dalang coming to Yunshui Pavilion. After all, it was Xie Lingjiang who said something inappropriate.

Putting aside some irregularities, the decorative style on the third floor of Yunshui Pavilion is indeed outstanding.

It imitates a garden landscape, the corridors are covered with Persian carpets, and the air is filled with the scent of sandalwood from the Qingdeng Ancient Temple. In the two most luxurious private rooms, there are pools and rockeries, covered with soft pebbles, and a small pedestal for scooping water.

water wheel.

It is probably the best teahouse in the entire Xunyang City at the moment. It is usually a quiet teahouse, but it can only be surpassed by the decoration of the Xunyang Tower, which is a restaurant and is famous in the south of the Yangtze River.

The guests, Li Dalang, Qin Ying, and Lin Cheng, actually didn't have much to talk about.

It was just a few polite exchanges, and a few words about the shared memories of Luodu, thousands of miles away.

Lin Cheng praised General Qin again and said Qin Ying was polite and generous.

Today, when Li Dalang and Qin Ying appeared, the attitude they expressed was the most important.

An hour later, after the tea was finished, everyone left the box and said goodbye on the stairs.

"This building is elegant and really good. The prince and Miss Qin will choose the place."

"It's too good a reputation. Mr. Lin Lingtai can come here more often. The health-preserving... tea at this place is highly recommended."

With Qin Ying beside him, Li Dalang immediately changed his words.

"good."

Lin Cheng nodded seriously, glanced at Ouyang Rong who didn't speak much during the whole process, smiled and asked:

"Will Ouyang Changshi go back to Xunyangfang together?"

"No need, Lin Lingtai, please go back first. I have something to do with Tan Lang."

As soon as Li Dalang finished speaking, Qin Ying nodded and said casually:

"I also have something to ask Mr. Ouyang about Xunyang Grottoes."

"Xunyang Grottoes?"

Lin Cheng paused and asked curiously:

"Miss Qin is interested in this? Do you believe in Buddhism? But the way you dress..."

In front of everyone, Qin Ying nodded and shook her head:

"It's mainly because I, Aweng Xin, also trust Mr. Ouyang. For the construction of Xunyang Grottoes, Aweng Rang's family also donated a sum of money. I stayed in Xunyang City to coordinate this matter, so there are some

Naturally, I have to ask Mr. Ouyang more about it. Aweng is also more concerned about it. Mr. Ouyang, don’t you think so?"

Facing Qin Ying's smiling eyes and words from the platform, Ouyang Rong could only nod slightly.

"I see."

Lin Cheng couldn't help but look at Ouyang Rong more.

After a while, Lin Cheng walked to the door and looked back at Li Dalang and Qin Ying, who were standing side by side and seemed to be lovers. He smiled slightly and said:

"Then I won't disturb you two. I'll take my leave first."

"Walk slowly."

Watching a certain fat young man leave, Li Dalang looked back.

"Why doesn't Tanlang say anything?"

"Next time Dalang does something like this, it would be better to talk to me."

"Tanlang is angry?"

"Not really."

Li Dalang shook his head: "Tan Lang is just unhappy."

Qin Ying thought for a while and said softly:

"Master Ouyang, you want to handle business matters yourself. This is not wrong and is even worthy of admiration.

"You know better about Xunyang Grottoes, but Lin Cheng, the people from Luoyang, and Fusu and I may know better than you.

"Although I'm not very familiar with Lin Cheng, I heard that he didn't come from a very good background. He worked his way up in Si Tianjian. At first glance, he is not a good person. He is very ambitious. It's impossible to say that he likes to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger.

"Aweng told me before that when faced with a character like this who has climbed up from the bottom, being humble, low-key and sincere is not of much use. Instead, it is easy to be regarded as a fat sheep. You have to show your strength and show your fangs as soon as you meet.

Only in this way can we gain respect and prevent the other party from making unnecessary misjudgments and offenses. This is the correct way to get along."

Qin Ying reminded in a low voice:

"So Mr. Ouyang's direct display of his strength and connections is more effective than following the formal reception procedures and saying a lot of emotional and rational words.

“No matter how reasonable we are about the postponement, we must have the strength to protect this ‘reason’ and prevent others from having evil intentions.

"This Lin Cheng is a smart man. Now he knows that Mr. Ouyang is not just a person and that he is not someone to be trifled with. After returning to Luoyang, he will know what to say and what not to say."

"Miss Qin is right, A-mei means the same thing."

Qin Ying spoke, and Li Dalang answered:

"Amei said that the two key figures sent by Luoyang to inspect this time must be soft and hard.

"Lin Cheng and Hu Zhongshi are different. Hu Zhongshi is suitable for soft people, but Lin Cheng needs to be hard. He should eat the hard and not the soft.

"In other words, you can give gifts in private to test whether he will accept them. But for giving gifts in private, A-mei said, knowing that you would be disgusted by Tan Lang, so we didn't add any unnecessary extravagance, so A-mei directly asked me to talk to Qin Xiao

Madam, come here..."

Li Dalang patted Ouyang Rong on the shoulder and said:

"Tan Lang, my sister is right. We are no longer in the same embarrassing situation as we were in Longcheng. We don't need Tan Lang to be alone. He has to stand alone every time.

"After my father has been restored to power, our Xunyang Palace can now give you a platform, Tanlang."

After listening to his friend's explanation and looking at his serious face, Ouyang Rong lowered his eyes and was quiet for a while before sighing:

"Da Lang, Miss Qin, I know what you mean, and what you say makes sense, but..."

"But what?" Li Dalang was curious.

"But why does it feel like... we are like bad guys."

Qin Ying sighed softly:

"Young Master Ouyang has too high moral standards for himself. This is what the current world has forced us to do. Good people must be as 'bad' as bad people, otherwise they will not be able to control many young people... These words were said by Aweng

, I also think it makes sense.”

Ouyang Rong could only nod:

"Thank you for your hard work."

"Tan Lang, why are you so polite?"

Ouyang Rong looked at Qin Ying.

The fat female Taoist priest waved her hand:

"Her Royal Highness the Princess also told me that there is nothing hard to do. If Aweng was here, he would probably agree. Mr. Ouyang does not need to feel that he is owed any favors."

A warm current flowed through Ouyang Rong's heart.

After a while, the three of them chatted for a few more words, and then Li Dalang and Qin Ying left.

Although when it comes to blind dates, Li Dalang and even Qin Ying have always been perfunctory.

But when it came to helping someone, the two surprisingly reached an agreement and acted together today...

Ouyang Rong raised his head and glanced at the sunset on the horizon. Under the orange-red clouds, there was a row of black ink droplets of geese flying past.

He rubbed his face and prepared to return to the Huaiye Lane mansion.

As soon as he boarded the carriage, Ouyang Rong suddenly turned around and ordered:

"Go to the Overwatch Council first."

"Yes, sir." Ali immediately drove his horse.

Half an hour later, Ouyang Rong came to the Overwatch Council again, walked into the hall, and searched around.

There was no one, no figure of Rong Zhen could be seen.

He caught a female official passing by and asked curiously:

"Where is the female historian?"

"out."

"Rong Zhennv Shi hasn't come back yet?"

"No."

A female officer on duty shook her head:

"I actually came back once in the afternoon, and then went out again. It seemed like I went to Xunyang Ferry."
To be continued...
