Talk about the world of mortals in detail

But maybe Hui Mian thought that he failed to achieve his original intention, but even if Zhuo Qing said such words, the feeling of distance had already been created unconsciously.

Being able to say these words easily with a smile actually represents a kind of relief.

Although Yi Shuyuan, who was sitting inside the teahouse, was talking to Tan Yuanshang, he also heard the words of Zhuo Qing and Hui Mian.

Different from Hui Mian's slight distress, when Yi Shuyuan heard this, he couldn't help but look in the direction of Zhuo Qing and Hui Mian, who should have pretended not to notice.

"Then it's settled, Mr. Yi, I'll be waiting for you at home! I'll take my leave today!"

Tan Yuanshang happily handed over to Yi Shuyuan again, and Yi Shuyuan returned to his senses and responded.

"Don't worry, Mr. Tan, Yi will definitely not break his promise."

"Hahahaha, okay, farewell!"

Tan Yuanshang was in a good mood. He smiled and led his servants out of the teahouse. When he went out, he also looked across the street. She was just an ordinary woman, so she didn't pay much attention.

——

In the afternoon of that day, Tan Yuanshang prepared his car and entered the palace directly after having lunch at home.

There was no need to show any gold medals, just Tan Yuanshang's face and name were enough for him to pass various levels and enter the depths of the palace.

In the royal study, Emperor Dayong was taking a nap, lying on a soft couch with his head resting on the lap of his favorite concubine, who gently rubbed the emperor's forehead.

At this time, even the eunuch Zhang Liangxi retreated outside the curtain of the inner room.

However, there was a young eunuch outside to report the matter, so Zhang Liangxi took small steps into the inner room and reported in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Tan is here."

The emperor opened his eyes. This time he did not shirk due to official duties.

"Let him in."

"yes!"

When Tan Yuanshang entered the imperial study with a smile on his face, the emperor had already sat up, pretending to be holding a book, and looked towards the visitor when he heard footsteps.

"Tan Yuanshang, a common man, has met His Majesty!"

"Yuan Shang, there is no need to be polite between you and me!"

Tan Yuanshang put away his polite smile and did not change his smile.

"Your Majesty is thinking of the friendship with the grassroots people. The grassroots people naturally understand, but the etiquette cannot be abolished!"

The emperor put down his book and asked with a relaxed expression.

"I go to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing. You seem to be very happy. Do you have any good news for me?"

"Hey, Your Majesty, you know me! Your Majesty, do you still remember what the common people said about asking Your Majesty to listen to the book?"

The emperor was happy, this happened again, but this Tan Yuanchang was the Tan Yuanchang he knew. After so many years, many things had changed, but Tan Yuanchang could still say such words in this tone.

Fortunately he didn't listen to me and become an official.

This thought came to the emperor's mind and he answered with a smile.

"That's all. It's not easy for you to come here again and again. I'll give you this face. When are you going to listen to the book?"

"Pa~"

Tan Yuanshang clapped his hands.

"Your Majesty, you are so amazing! I invited the storyteller to my home several times to give lectures, but no matter what method I used, he refused to be invited. But today he agreed. It turns out that Your Majesty wants to hear it!"

"Wonderful, wonderful!"

Tan Yuanshang was 30% sincere and 70% flattering. The emperor couldn't help but look surprised when he heard this.

"And you, Mr. Tan, can't invite the storyteller? He's so brave!"

The emperor's words were also a joke. Tan Yuanshang understood the elegant meaning of the words and took a few steps closer to elaborate.

"Your Majesty, you don't know something. This storyteller is not an ordinary storyteller. In front of him, the other storytellers in the city are just babbling and learning words, like young children reading from the book!"

The concubine sitting next to the emperor was also curious and couldn't help but ask.

"Is there still such a gap?"

"Your Majesty, you don't know. The gap will only be bigger than what Tan said!"

With that said, Tan Yuanshang placed four books on the table. The emperor and the concubines took a look and saw "The River God Falls" written on the cover.

Good guy, these four books are exactly the complete version of "The Fall of the River God" by Yi Shuyuan. They even have the postscript to what he said this morning, and they didn't forget to seal the book into a volume.

"This man's surname is Yi. I don't know where he is from. I only know that he was a storyteller in Mingzhou. At that time, he had already gained quite a reputation in Mingzhou City. People at that time praised his storytelling ability as the sixteenth best in Mingzhou!"

The name of Mingzhou's fifteen unique skills is not small, and it can be said that it is well-known. One person's storyteller is known as the sixteenth unique talent, which immediately aroused the curiosity of those present.

Tan Yuanchang didn't give in anymore and continued with a smile.

"This man is a man of extraordinary oral skills, outstanding learning, and endless whimsical ideas. Listening to his writings, one feels as if the voice is immersing him in the scene. In a trance, it is as if His Majesty is sleepwalking through the book and borrowing paper and pen to use."

After Tan Yuanshang got the emperor's approval, he took the pen and paper from the table and wrote four words on the corner of the table.

"Sound on the scene?"

The emperor read it out, and Tan Yuanshang nodded.

"Every time ordinary people hear it, they get goosebumps, as if they are seeing the wonders in the book with their own eyes in their minds. This man's skills are unparalleled among calligraphers throughout the ages, and he is worthy of everyone!"

"Is it really that powerful?"

The concubine couldn't help but ask this.

Tan Yuanshang nodded and whispered.

"This person seems not to be a storyteller for fame or fortune, but just for fun. I have promised many benefits, but he remains unmoved. Your Majesty, you know me. The benefits I promised are not just words. He will definitely show his sincerity.”

"I went to Mingzhou to meet the so-called Sixteenth Jue, but he had already left Mingzhou at that time. I thought to myself that it was probably an exaggeration and he was disgraced. Now that I have met him in the capital, it is easy. The statement of knowing the Sixteen Absolutes is definitely not an exaggeration!”

As he spoke, Tan Yuanshang shook his head again.

"Your Majesty, you will never imagine why he agreed to the invitation of the grassroots. On the one hand, it is naturally because God may have felt that your Majesty would agree today, so this happened."

The emperor smiled.

"Stop flattering!"

"Yes, yes, hehe, on the other hand, this person does not mention gold and silver interests, but wants ordinary people to do a favor."

Tan Yuanshang put the pen back to its original position and said.

"He has a friend from the world who seems to be in love with a girl in Yunxiang Pavilion on the 13th floor. He wants to redeem her life, but the place is too sensitive and involved."

"Although Mr. Storyteller has not agreed to my invitation before, he must have understood that ordinary people are not ordinary people, so he asked me for help to help the girl escape from the Thirteenth Floor and return to a good family."

The emperor nodded slightly after hearing this.

"So that's it. He is a person who values ​​love and justice."

"Your Majesty, when is it convenient for you?"

After Tan Yuanshang said this, the emperor himself became really curious and wanted to see the power of the storyteller with his own eyes, so he replied.

"Before the palace examination, it's convenient for me. You can choose the date."

"According to the order~~"

Tan Yuanshang hurriedly shouted in response and saluted!

This made the eunuch Zhang Liangxi on the side almost laugh, and at the same time he was sighing in his heart, Mr. Tan really cannot be missing from His Majesty's side.

——

In the evening two days later, Yi Shuyuan arrived at Tan Mansion early.

Although he was mentally prepared, Yi Shuyuan was still a little shocked by the scale of Tan Mansion.

This is Chengtian Mansion City, where every inch of land is precious. The Mo Mansion in Mingzhou was no longer small, but it was also a normal large family. However, the scale of Mo Mansion is compared to the Tan Mansion. At most, it can only be regarded as a small part of the mansion. courtyard.

There are many pavilions and pavilions in the entire Tan Mansion, and there are more than one rockery and flowing water. The buildings are high and low, and there is even a special stage bookstore.

Tan Yuanshang entertained Yi Shuyuan as a guest. The butler took Yi Shuyuan around and set a table of dishes for him alone.

Tan Yuanshang showed up after Yi Shuyuan had had enough wine and food.

It wasn't Tan Yuanshang's intention. He came back after going to the palace in person, and then found Yi Shuyuan walking in one of the gardens.

"Mr. Yi, you didn't provide good hospitality. If you have any other requests, just ask!"

"Thank you, Mr. Tan. Everything prepared by the house has already amazed Yi. When should we start?"

Yi Shuyuan stood by the pool, looking at the chubby fish in the pool, and couldn't help but think of Lu Yuwei. They were standing here talking, and the fish gathered over, as if they thought they were about to feed.

Tan Yuanshang smiled.

"Mr. Yi, please stay for a moment. There are still distinguished guests at home who have not yet arrived. It is rare for Mr. Yi to speak to you. If I miss this time, I don't know when I will be able to invite Mr. Yi again."

"Listen to Mr. Tan's arrangements, Yi is not in a hurry!"

More than just asking for help, Yi Shuyuan thought that you might not even be able to find me.

"Oh, by the way, Mr. Yi, the matter in Yunxiang Pavilion is no longer a problem. Should I send someone there, or should I go with your friend and Miss Zhuo Qing?"

Yi Shuyuan saluted Tan Yuanshang solemnly.

"It's best to let Ms. Zhuo Qing go with her. It can clear her heart, otherwise she may not feel it is true."

"Okay, let's arrange it like this!"

Tan Yuanshang is also willing to talk to Yi Shuyuanduo. This storyteller is not only knowledgeable about storytelling.

The two of them chatted by the fish pond until a servant trotted over.

"Sir, the distinguished guest is here!"

Tan Yuanchang felt happy and looked at Yi Shuyuandao.

"Sir, go get ready. We'll start in a minute!"

Yi Shuyuan nodded and watched Tan Yuanshang and his servants leave quickly. Then he looked up at the sky and then towards the front yard of the mansion.

Purple air rises in the sky, shining on the Ziwei Emperor Star. Good guy, is it possible that the emperor is here tonight?

——

The attic in one of the courtyards of Tan Mansion is now full of guests.

Behind the tables with various kinds of food, sat the family members of Tan Yuanshang's family, the emperor and several concubines who came out of the palace, and several princes and princesses who were not too old. From time to time, they would meet with Tan Yuanshang. The kids at home have a little fun.

Yi Shuyuan's storyteller's table and chairs were at one end of the pavilion, and he was a little bit dumbfounded when he saw this battle.

No one told Yi Shuyuan that he was the emperor here, and he was called Second Master, but there were a lot of overt and covert warnings around him.

There was also an acquaintance, the great eunuch Zhang Liangxi whom he had met in Yuezhou. This father-in-law's martial arts might be just one step away from being innate, and he was standing next to the emperor at the moment.

When Yi Shuyuan entered the hall, both the guests and the host looked at him. He bowed his hands in the direction of the guests and saluted, then sat down safely and displayed his folding fan.

The emperor was also sizing up the storyteller at this moment. He did have some good demeanor, and his long gray hair also added to his color. However, if he knew that he was facing the emperor's concubine, he didn't know if he could still do it. Stay calm?

"Second Master, can you start?"

Tan Yuanchang asked, the emperor nodded, and the latter looked at Yi Shuyuandao.

"Mr. Yi, let's get started?"

Yi Shuyuan nodded, slowly unfolded the folding fan in his hand, grabbed the ruler and gently dropped it on the table.

"Pa~"

The voice was not loud, but it was extremely refreshing. Some of the princes, princesses and children in the Tan Mansion who were still whispering were startled and subconsciously looked at the storytelling table.

"I was invited today and have the opportunity to tell a story here. Thanks to your appreciation, I will tell you about "The Fall of the River God"!"

Yi Shuyuan's voice was very special. Even if he hadn't used ventriloquism yet, it still attracted some naughty children in the hall who no one dared to control.

When the "little girl in the book" cried out after covering her face, all the guests were worried, and some of the guards in the light and dark subconsciously looked sideways.

The first section of the sacrifice to the river god took more than half an hour under the condition that Yi Shuyuan controlled the rhythm. After listening to it, all the guests could not get out of the tense atmosphere for a long time.

Yi Shuyuan drank tea there to soothe his throat and rested for a while. The emperor and others at the guest seats were also amazed and full of praise.

"Your Majesty, ordinary people don't dare to deceive you. You really didn't lie, right?"

Tan Yuanchang asked the emperor in a low voice, and the latter nodded with deep understanding.

"This man's skills are indeed miraculous, and the stories he tells are actually traceable. The practice of worshiping the river god in the middle reaches of the canal began when Emperor Taizu was fighting for hegemony in the world. It was still practiced decades after the founding of Dayong. The habit of human sacrifice!”

The emperor said and looked at Tan Yuanshang.

"This person uses history as a reference to draw on the past and satirize the present. There is a profound meaning in the article. He is not just talking about making up myths."
