Nu Yalang of Tang Dynasty

After hearing Hua Yue's words, Zhou Jun couldn't bear it and said: "Although I don't know how the prophecy was obtained, talking about the reality of the world is too mysterious. Besides, I don't think it's better to borrow artificial intelligence when it comes to fate.

, it’s better to take control by yourself.”

Hua Yue looked at Zhou Jun and asked: "Erlang thinks that Hua Yue's staying is a helpless move, or is it because he is unwilling to do so?"

Zhou Jun said nothing but acquiesced.

Hua Yueqiang said with a smile: "I have never felt that staying in the Tang Dynasty is a last resort; nor have I ever felt that being by your side is being restrained by a prophecy."

"Painting the moon is painting the moon. I just want an answer, and Erlang happens to be able to give it to me."

Zhou Jun sighed, nodded, and said to Hua Yue: "When I offered to stay, I made a promise to you that I will protect you for as long as I stay in the Tang Dynasty."

Huayue just responded when she heard the words. After that, the two looked at each other for a long time, both of them speechless.

Zhou Jun cleared his throat, stood up and said to Huayue: "I'm going to Zhongyuan. I may not be able to make it in time for dinner. You can go to Qu's house to join us."

Huayue nodded.

Zhou Jun took a copy of The West Chamber from the desk and walked out of the room.

Huayue, who was still sitting on the couch, looked at Zhou Jun's retreating back and said softly in an inaudible voice: "There is still a second half to that prophecy..."

Zhou Jun, holding the storybook of The West Chamber, entered the Zhongyuan and walked towards Yin Darong's Weiwei Courtyard.

Before reaching the entrance of the courtyard, Zhou Jun heard singing and music coming from inside and felt confused.

The porter's boy saw Zhou Jun from a distance and rushed over to welcome him into the courtyard.

After entering the courtyard, Zhou Jun understood what the sound of singing was about.

It turned out that Yin Darong was sitting in the main seat in the courtyard, testing the skills of the musicians in the school.

Seeing Zhou Jun walking in, Yin Darong waved his hand to stop singing, and asked with a smile: "Why is Erlang so free today to come to our house as a guest?"

Zhou Jun first bowed his hands to Yin Darong, then took out the storybook of The West Chamber from his arms and handed it to the latter with both hands.

When Yin Darong saw the name in the storybook, he was surprised at first, and then said happily: "How did Erlang know that our family is looking for this thing?"

Before Zhou Jun could answer, Yin Darong took the storybook and said with admiration: "A few days ago, our family heard that a storybook was published in Chang'an City, called Romance of the West Chamber. No matter who read it, they all praised it highly."

"My family sent servants to buy them, but they went all over Chang'an and sold them out on the way back."

"A certain person was feeling itchy waiting, so he thought about paying a lot of money to have someone take a look at the copy. Little did he know that even the copy would have to be scheduled."

As Yin Darong spoke, he opened the book and saw the word "Zhou Jun" written in the "Kanlu" column on the title page. He couldn't help but wonder: "This is...?"

Zhou Jun said with a smile: "I also had some ideas for the script of The West Chamber, and because I was familiar with the author, I got the post of Kan Lu."

Yin Darong raised his head and glanced at Zhou Jun, quite surprised: "I didn't expect Erlang to have such ability."

After saying this, Yin Darong opened the storybook and quickly got into it, forgetting about it.

As a result, Yin An, the housekeeper of the Yin Mansion, and all the musicians and musicians looked at each other in shock. Everyone did not dare to move or speak, and they did not know what to do.

Zhou Jun walked to Yin An and whispered to the latter: "Let everyone go down first and don't disturb Duke Yin."

Yin An nodded quickly after hearing this, and gestured to the others, who carefully exited the courtyard.

Yin Darong was originally from a theater troupe, and he also loved reading plays, so he read The West Chamber very slowly.

In the meantime, Yin An entered the courtyard twice and wanted to ask about the meal. When he saw Duke Yin, he had no choice but to leave.

The sun was setting in the west, and the stars were rising at the beginning of the month. Some servants lit candles in the yard.

Yin Darong spent more than half an hour reading the 30-fold storybook before he finished it.

After closing the book, Yin Darong took a long breath and sighed: "This story, this poem, and this song, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a work handed down from generation to generation."

Seeing Zhou Jun next to him, Yin Darong asked hurriedly: "Where is the booklet at the back of The West Chamber?"

Zhou Jun said: "We are engraving and printing, I'm afraid it will take some time."

Yin Darong slapped his thigh anxiously.

Seeing this, Zhou Jun said again: "If Yin Gong is in a hurry, I will go find the author, copy the original, and send it to him."

Yin Darong jumped up from his chair and said with a smile: "Erlang really helped our family a lot!"

Zhou Jun remembered something again and said to Yin Darong: "Mr. Yin, I'm afraid it will be very difficult to hire musicians."

Yin Darong waved his hand and said: "A thousand pieces of gold are easy to come by, but a good skill is hard to find. Does Erlang know how much effort it took to raise these little girls in our family?"

At this point, Yin Darong sighed and continued: "There are many good actors in the academy, and there are also private actors who have been raised by wealthy families since childhood. It is often difficult to find them, and I am afraid that this matter cannot be rushed."

Zhou Jun raised his hands and said yes.

Yin Darong looked up at the sky, patted his head, and suddenly said: "Look at my memory, it's already so late, Erlang, please stay and have dinner with our family."

Zhou Jun resisted at first, but when Yin Darong insisted, he agreed.

Yin Darong called Yin An, explained a few words, and then took Zhou Jun into the side hall.

Not long after the two of them sat down, the servants brought wine and delicacies, and soon the table was filled.

While Zhou Jun was talking to Yin Darong, he wanted to pour himself a toast, but he heard footsteps behind him.

Two beautiful musicians wearing topless skirts with large sleeves came to Zhou Jun's side with a smile.

One woman was picking up food, and the other was pouring wine. The two of them were making secret glances at each other while standing close to Zhou Jun, but they wanted to press their bodies against each other.

Zhou Jun sat back a little uncomfortable and looked at Yin Darong, only to find that the latter was smiling.

Yin Darong said: "Erlang, look at these two young ladies. If you like them, you can take them into your room."

Zhou Jun quickly raised his hands and said, "Yin Gong is joking."

Yin Darong: "Our daughters can talk about them every day in the garden."

"Erlang is handsome, young and promising. He never indulges in pampering. He is truly a good husband in the eyes of women."

Zhou Jun glanced at the two women beside him and saw the look of hope in their eyes, and they really agreed with Yin Gong's words.

Zhou Jun thought for a while and said to Yin Darong: "If you dare to teach Yin Gong, I don't dare to accept the courtesy."

Yin Darong was stunned and asked: "Is Erlang worried about Mr. Pang?"

Zhou Jun shook his head and said: "No."

"When I was young and young, if I became obsessed with women, I was worried that I would have no time to take care of him. It would be a small matter for me to waste my own future, but it would be a big thing for me to miss the entrustment of my employer."

When Yin Darong heard this, he looked surprised, and when he looked at Zhou Jun, his eyes showed a little more appreciation and admiration.

I saw him waving his hands to the two women beside Zhou Jun, but he motioned for them to retreat.

The two women stood up reluctantly and walked out of the hall with three steps and one turn.

Zhou Jun breathed a sigh of relief, picked up his wine glass, and paid homage to Yin Darong.

After drinking for three rounds, Yin Darong said to Zhou Jun: "Our family recently heard from Pang Gong that they intend to open an inner garden."

Zhou Jun was stunned when he heard this: "Inner Garden?"

Yin Darong said again: "From what Pang Gong said, I'm afraid there are dignitaries who want to come and stay in Bieyuan for a few days."

A distinguished person?

When Zhou Jun heard this word, his first reaction was the longevity king Li Hao.

King Shou had just taken out his filial piety, but because of Yang Yuhuan's incident, he was estranged from Xuanzong and was unwilling to enter the palace to follow the rituals.

Pang Gong invited him to stay at Bachuan Villa for a while, probably to persuade him.

Thinking of this, Zhou Jun said: "I once went to see the inner garden. The halls and rooms there were in disrepair for a long time; no one took care of the courtyards, pools and pavilions; even the precious wood and utensils in the past were now rotten by insects and unbearable."

Use it again."

Yin Darong nodded and said: "That's right. I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort to tidy up the entire inner garden."

Zhou Jun and Yin Darong talked for a while, finished their dinner, and then left.

Along the way, Zhou Jun frowned, thinking about the inner garden, and went to Qu's courtyard.

Zhou Jun walked into the courtyard gate and saw Qu Sanweng playing backgammon with Kong You, and a large group of people gathered next to him.

Among those people were the Qu family, the Fan family, and several elders.

A group of people stared at the chessboard, their expressions showing deep contemplation.

Kong You was the only one sitting there leisurely, flipping through books and playing chess.

Less than ten moves later, Qu Sanweng let out a long sigh and surrendered.

Kong You asked the crowd: "Who else would like to play chess with me?"

Everyone looked at each other in shock, but no one dared to come down and challenge him again.

Zhou Jun said aloud: "Bo Hong."

Kong You raised his head and saw Zhou Jun. He quickly stood up, walked to the latter, raised his hands and said, "I wonder what your master's orders are?"

Zhou Jun frowned and said, "Let's call him Erlang."

Kong You agreed.

Zhou Jun first asked him: "Is the food and accommodation ready?"

Kong You: "It's all set."

Zhou Jun said: "In the past few days, let's settle down and get acquainted with the families in the courtyard."

Kong You looked at Zhou Jun and said, "Guan Erlang looks troubled, but is there something wrong?"

Zhou Jun thought for a moment and then told Kong You about the arrangement of the inner garden.

Kong You said: "What's so difficult about this? If Erlang borrows a certain token, within a month, the inner garden will be completely renewed."

Zhou Jun: "One month? It's a bit of a rush, right?"

Kong You: "One month is enough."

Seeing that Kong You was confident, Zhou Jun nodded and said, "Okay, I'll give you a month's permission."
