…"
It was clear that the corruption of the soul from the future far exceeded the limits of the Great Tang's imagination.
Li Ke left. Before he left, he looked at Kong Yan with an extremely complicated gaze, causing Kong Yan's anus to tighten inexplicably.
"In just three short days, the three most favored princes of His Majesty have been offended by Brother Kong.”Cheng Chumo cupped his hands at Kong Yan with an inexplicable smile on his face.
The others looked at Kong Yan with respect.
Some of them dared to look down on the prince, but they didn't dare to reject him like Kong Yan.
Kong Yan rubbed his nose and smiled.""Brother Cheng, are you implying that His Highness the Crown Prince, His Highness the King of Yue, and His Highness the King of Shu are all petty?”
Cheng
Chumo laughed and changed the topic."I wonder what gift Brother Kong has prepared for the Empress?”
Hearing his question, the others also perked up.
Ever since Kong Yan donated five million taels of silver to the disaster relief, his name had been circulating in Chang 'an.
"Heaven's secrets cannot be revealed." Kong Yan said calmly,"But I can tell you that the gift I gave you is more in line with my temperament.”
Rich and overbearing!
There were all kinds of guesses. Some said it was Wang Xizhi's calligraphy, some said it was Qin Dynasty porcelain, and some said it was something like longevity peaches
…”
Suddenly, an untimely voice sounded from the apricot garden, drowning out everyone's voices.
For a moment, the scene fell silent.
Kong Yan narrowed his eyes and looked at the apricot garden. Six youths in embroidered clothes walked out from there.
"They are from the Zhangsun Clan. Be careful.”Qin Huaiyu whispered into Kong Yan's ear.
Ever since the appearance of the King of Shu, Li Ke, Kong Yan had become the focus of these rich and powerful second generation heirs. His every move attracted people.
Of course, not everyone thought Kong Yan's smile was like a spring breeze.
For example, the Zhangsun Clan.
As relatives of the Zhangsun family, they had always been able to do whatever they wanted in Chang 'an.
Although the battle between the Crown Prince and the King of Yue was getting more and more intense, the impact on the Zhangsun Clan was negligible.
This was because no matter who inherited the throne, the Zhangsun Clan would be their maternal family.
The fact that Zhangsun Jiaqing could become the Prince's attendant meant that he had a certain status in the Zhangsun family, even though he was not a direct descendant of Empress Zhangsun.
Kong Yan had directly rebuked Zhangsun Jiaqing at the Yi Public Court in Jingzhao, causing him to become unemployed. He might not even have a job in the future. This was undoubtedly a provocation to many people in the Zhangsun family.
Coincidentally, there were several juniors of the Zhangsun Clan among the people who came today.
Among them, Zhangsun Wuji's eldest son Zhangsun Chong was the leader.
After the appearance of Li Ke, the King of Shu, the Zhangsun Clan disciples led by Zhangsun Chong had entered the Apricot Garden to avoid him. They only reappeared after Li Ke had left.
The one who spoke was Zhangsun Dan, the sixth son of Zhangsun Wuji, who was now the Crown Prince Xi Ma.
"Little Dan, don't be rude."
When the leader of the six walked to the side of the crowd, he glanced at Kong Yan and said casually,"
He was Zhangsun Chong, the eldest son of Zhangsun Wuji. He was the leader of the younger generation in the Zhangsun Clan.
"Big brother, did I say anything wrong? From afar, I could smell the stench of money. It was simply unbearable.”Zhangsun Dan looked at Kong Yan with disdain and covered his nose with his hand, revealing a disgusted expression.
The other four disciples of the Zhangsun Clan also cooperated with him and revealed haughty gazes as they sneered.
Zhangsun Chong smiled apologetically at Kong Yan and said,""Little Dan is straightforward, I hope Brother Kong won't blame her.”
Most of the surrounding noble children revealed a playful smile, all of them looking like they were watching a show.
Cheng Chumo even took out a handful of melon seeds from somewhere and started eating them.
"You…know me?" Kong Yan looked at Zhangsun Chong and asked after a moment of silence.
Zhangsun Chong paused for a moment, but his smile did not change. He said,"In recent days, there is no one in Chang 'an who doesn't know Brother Kong's name.”
"Oh? Tell me, what did they say about me?”Kong Yan asked curiously. He quickly grabbed a few melon seeds from Cheng Chumo's hand and started to eat them.
Cheng Chumo's face twitched as he looked at the melon seeds in his hand.
"The ignorant are fearless! Chang 'an was not Suzhou. No matter how rich you were, you were just a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered!”
Zhangsun Chong remained silent as he sized up Kong Yan.
Kong Yan was munching on melon seeds. He raised his eyebrows and glanced at Zhangsun Chong.""Why aren't you saying anything? What do the people of Chang 'an say about me?”
Zhangsun
Chong narrowed his eyes and said,""It's mostly praise."
Kong Yan's eyes lit up as he asked,""How?"
"Zhangsun, tell me. I, Old Cheng, want to hear it too.”Cheng Chumo said with a smile.
"Looks like Brother Kong is fearless.”Zhangsun Chong said meaningfully.
"Pfft ~ Fearless?" Zhangsun Dan sneered. The Crown Prince and the King of Yue had offended the Crown Prince and the King of Yue at the same time. Did they really think that two stinking money could save their lives?”
Cheng Chumo didn't mind the commotion and reminded,"Wrong, he just angered His Highness the King of Shu away.”
Kong Yan sighed and said,"I thought there were really commoners praising this young master, but in the end, there was only a mad dog barking. I wonder if there will be dog meat at tonight's birthday banquet ~"”
Zhangsun Dan's expression turned cold as he said gloomily,""You dare to scold me?"
Kong Yan gave Zhangsun Dan an appreciative look and said,""Not bad, you have quite a bit of self-awareness.”
"Cough, cough, cough…"
At this moment, many people started laughing and coughing.
"You!" Zhangsun Dan pointed at Kong Yan, trembling with anger.
"Don't be rash," Kong Yan comforted."Didn't I praise you just now?"”
"Do you know who I am? You dare to scold me?" Zhangsun Dan's expression was extremely gloomy, and his tone was filled with disbelief.
Kong Yan hesitated and said apologetically,""Sorry, I really don't know who you are.”
"F * ck, hahaha! "I can't take it anymore, hahaha…" Cheng Chumo laughed.
The others also smiled.
Only the six members of the Zhangsun Clan did not look too good.
Kong Yan revealed an innocent expression.
He really did not know who this person who had been barking like a mad dog was.
"You…stink…%$!”Zhangsun Dan was flustered and exasperated. He suddenly took a step forward and was about to fight Kong Yan.
Kong Yan's eyes lit up again as he secretly rolled up his sleeves.
"Little Dan, don't be rash!" When Zhangsun Chong saw Kong Yan's face, he had a bad feeling.
Zhangsun Dan had lost much of his rationality. The daily life of the second generation usually included fighting.
The Zhangsun Clan was considered more cultured, and they rarely fought every other day like Cheng Huaimo and the other silkpants from the families of generals.
But when he couldn't take it anymore, it was obvious that taking action was the best choice.
Especially with a merchant whose status was far lower than his!
Pa!
Zhangsun Dan had just rushed to Kong Yan's side and raised his fist. Just before the final blow, Kong Yan's palm pressed forward and landed directly on Zhangsun Dan's left cheek.
