Volume 1 Plum Yellow Rain Chapter 34 Sugar-coated Cannonballs
The sound of Xing catching the head came from the prison, always catching the head, what kind of trouble is this, you see my freshly baked soldering iron, if you don't open the door, it will be cold!
Zhuge Yao Cake scolded, you are going to die, if you want to die, you go by yourself, don't drag me down. I took every precaution, but I still fell into this kid's way, but fortunately, I was clever or I would have been really detained, and I wouldn't have been dealt with by the prefect.
I shouted through the door, Zhuge catches the head, you see that the receipt of the ticket has also been signed, why don't you open the door first, let's sit down and talk slowly, open the door.
Do you want to open the door? You all put the door on for me, and if you let them in, they'll all be dismissed!"
Xu Kaishan took two steps forward and said you two get out of the way, I'll smash the door open! I said don't, you are destroying public property like this, and I can't follow the explanation when someone grabs the pigtail. Zhuge baked cakes, I don't believe you don't come out.
Called Hanako Jiangnan to watch inexplicably, saying that life is so big, this should be Tianfu prison, I have only seen those who want to go in and don't let them out, and I haven't seen those who want to go in outside and don't let them in, it's really strange.
I said that there are no wonders in the world, and I will naturally live for a long time.
The two sides were at a stalemate, I thought it was not a problem, seeing that it was going to be evening, I took out two taels of silver and handed it to Jiangnan, saying that you go to the restaurant outside to get a hot pot, beef and mutton all day long, let's eat here and wait.
The charcoal fire rises, and the hot pot is fragrant.
The three of us sat in the door of the prison and ate happily. I shouted at the door, Zhuge always catches the head, you see it's not too early, it's time for the brothers to eat, there are still a lot of condiments here, why don't you drink a pot together?
It is estimated that there is no food in it, I heard Xing Zhutou say, always catch the head, there is no way to go on like this, people are iron rice and steel, if you don't eat a meal, you are hungry and panicked, you are naturally fine with strong martial arts, but there are still 100 people in this prison.
Zhuge baked cakes said that it is not three meals a day, and you can't die if you don't eat one meal. Xing Catcher Nuo Nuo said, this, the chief catcher, the last time the prisoner in the number had dinner was three days ago. Zhuge said angrily, who gave you such courage, the monthly food money allocated by the imperial court was swallowed by you!
I laughed secretly in my heart, the daily meal standard set by the prisoners in the prison was 20 wen, and the three meals a day were made into one meal a day by them, and the silver taels deducted in a month were also 780 taels, no wonder Xing Zhutou was so anxious.
I just listened to Xing Zhutou and said shhhh Zhuge snorted coldly and was silent.
I picked up a glass of wine and said Brother Xu, this way down, thank you for taking care of me, today you have arrived safely in Jinling, I am also ready to go back to life, today's glass of wine, it should be a farewell to the bar, you and Feng Wanli's battle, I must have no chance to see in person, I wish you a victory. Your daughter's matter, I promise you to help you find it as soon as possible.
Xu Kaishan laughed and said loudly, Okay, when the matter of Jinling is over, I will find my daughter and go to the capital to find you for a drink! I'm sorry for Jiangnan again, I've caused you trouble today, I've made up my mind about your friend, and when I go to the capital, I'll go to Liumen to find me.
Called Huazi Jiangnan and said that you are also from the six doors, in the end, it is a person from the capital, who forced the dignified Zhuge to go to prison and did not dare to come out.
At this moment, there was a humane person outside the door, big brother, what about the people who were arrested at noon, they actually ate white food under my nose, and beat me, I want to serve them personally. Three or four people came in from outside the door, led by Zhuge Salted Fish, the shopkeeper of the cheap shop.
As soon as I entered the door, Zhuge Salted Fish bumped into my face, confused, what was the situation.
I said that this is the Yingtianfu Prison, the official yamen, you will come as soon as you introduce the cloth, do you think it is a vegetable market?
Zhuge salted fish said I'm looking for my eldest brother, why did you come out.
I said your big brother was in there!
Zhuge Xianyu's face changed greatly, and he cried, big brother, why did you get in, I'll just say, our brother, I am responsible for making money, you are responsible for being an official, don't mess around with money, if something happens to you, who will take care of my eight sisters-in-law!
With a bang, the door opened.
Zhuge Yaobi came out with a cold face and left, and scolded angrily, What nonsense are you talking about! Zhuge Xianyu said that you were not subject to double regulations. Zhuge baked cake is a punch, you big-headed turtle, get out of here if it's okay, don't block me here.
Coming to me, I smiled and said, Zhuge always catches the head, and the six doors of the capital are catching Su Yu to give you a salute. Zhuge baked cakes as if he had changed people, hugged my shoulders, and said that it was Brother Su, I said why are magpies chirping today, and I dare to know that you are coming.
I saw that his attitude turned 180 degrees, and I couldn't make up my mind, and said, this matter today is a bit awkward, or wait for the business to be done, and the younger brother will make amends for you in the drunken fairy building!
Zhuge baked cakes said that they should be treated to Tianfu and let you have a treat, which is not chilling for me, today brother I will be the east, and I will give you the wind in the cheap shop. I pointed at Xu Kaishan, since I have already taken the ticket, let's take the person into custody.
Zhuge said that he was off work, what kind of business to talk about, just now I heard you call him a brother, presumably also your friend, let me call him brother, or let's go together.
I was stunned when I heard this, I dare to wait for me here, I said at this time that this is the Jiangyang thief Xu Kaishan, it is estimated that he will be caught by him again, and in the future, I will make a small report to my superiors, saying that I am going to commit a crime with the imperial court, which is obviously forcing me not to admit that this person is Xu Kaishan.
Ginger is worthy of being old and spicy.
Zhuge baked cakes came up to help me, I was shocked, this person's martial arts are not weak, and when I thought about it, I was also the head catcher of the six doors of Tianfu, and I couldn't sit in this position without two brushes in martial arts.
Coming to a private room in the bargain shop, Zhuge Salted Fish was busy looking around, making seasonal river fresh, and giving each person a case of puffer fish.
Jiangnan puffer fish delicious meat fresh, but puffer fish liver is highly poisonous, puffer fish poison is a neurotoxin, killing only a cup of tea, second only to Heding red in the world's strange poison, it is said that not long ago the second prince of Dongyi was assassinated with this poison, the murderer has not been captured so far.
However, if the internal organs are removed, the puffer fish is a big delicacy on the table, and ordinary restaurants dare not do it easily, Zhuge Baked Cake said that this dish is one of the three treasures of Jinling, and several brothers came at the right time, come, this bowl is Brother Xu's, please don't refuse.
When I looked, our bowl was all puffer fish soup, but Xu Kaishan's bowl was all fried puffer fish liver. I said that this Brother Xu has a bit of high cholesterol recently, and it is not suitable for eating liver. Xu Kaishan said that it was not in the way, picked up the chopsticks as he spoke, and ate clean in a few clicks. I don't want to say it in my heart, Xu Kaishan uses Heding Red as a drink on weekdays, and eating a puffer fish liver is not like playing, and it is not dissuaded.
Zhuge Baked Cake saw that Xu Kaishan had no reaction, so he began to persuade him to drink. This red-clothed head catcher, martial arts, a lot of alcohol, and the kung fu of persuading wine is even first-class, although I was on guard in every possible way, I was finally poured more than three catties of soju.
Halfway through the drink, Zhuge Baked Cake sighed.
I asked Zhuge why he sighed.
Zhuge baked cakes and said, brother, don't hide it from you, everyone envies me for being a head catcher in these six doors, but I live with little power and quick money, but who knows my hardships. I said with great interest, the red-clothed chief catcher, the entire Ying Tianfu is under the three people, above the ten thousand, why bother?
Zhuge took a sip of wine, don't tell you, this son looks beautiful, but in fact, his head hangs on his waist on an errand, originally a family of officials and people, not long ago, the head was always caught but let the six doors be in charge of the affairs of the rivers and lakes, our Jinling has a bit of a special status in the rivers and lakes, and the rivers and lakes have not been peaceful recently, not to mention the decisive battle between Xu Kaishan and Feng Wanli, in the past two months alone, there have been three or four conflicts between the Netherworld Sect and the Martial Arts Conference.
Along the way, I have heard about the Netherworld Sect many times, and I have also encountered the infighting between them and their left and right protectors, and the Netherworld Sect, which has always been very low-key, has been so active recently, but I don't know why? As for the martial arts conference, it is just a loose type of Jianghu organization with its headquarters in Jinling, and its status in the rivers and lakes is also a little awkward, and the symbolic dues of the various major sects cannot even be organized.
Thinking of this, I even toasted a glass of wine and asked, what is the ability of this Netherworld Sect to make the chief catcher so worried?
Zhuge baked cakes said, about fighting for territory.
Xu Kaishan said coldly on the side, in my opinion, it is probably the old woman surnamed Jing who fell in love with the land in Momoyama.
Taoshan, my heart sank, this was the territory of Murong Villa, after the fall of Murong Villa, the leader of the martial arts alliance, Li Mingxiu, took over the territory of Murong Villa by the way, but now Li Mingxiu is old, and he has long since stopped asking about the affairs of the rivers and lakes.
I talked about tomorrow's delivery, but Zhuge Baked Cake interrupted, It's not too early, let's talk about it when I see the prefect tomorrow, the three of you haven't arranged an inn, so just stay here.
Jiang Nan was quite excited, saying that I had never lived in such an expensive restaurant, but hesitated, but I had to go home first. When I asked why, he said that there were still old people at home, so I stopped asking for it.
Zhuge Salted Fish took the two of us to the backyard, Xu Kaishan looked up, Tianzi No. 1 and Tianzi No. 2 rooms, and asked, can you change the room?
Xu Kaishan said no, and the name was a little panicked. I laughed secretly in my heart, Xu Kaishan has lived in the No. 3 room of Tianzi in the prison for fifteen years, and now I guess I want to vomit when I look at such a name. Zhuge Salted Fish arranged two other rooms.
I said that I was done anyway, and Brother Xu had a good rest today. Xu Kaishan glanced at me and said that Zhuge is not a simple person, you have little experience in the rivers and lakes, but don't be fooled by him. I said what are you afraid of, we are also officials, what does he really dare to do?
Xu Kaishan said with a smile, of course you are not afraid of being hard, but you are afraid that he will give you some capitalist sugar-coated shells to confuse you. I said how can I, even if I came, I ate the icing and spit back the cannonballs.
Xu Kaishan turned around to go back to the room, and I suddenly asked, Brother Xu, what is the origin of the Netherworld Sect and the Martial Arts Conference? Xu Kaishan glanced at me and said with a smile, Are you so interested? This story may be a bit long. But in short, it was just for Murong Baiyun's formation here back then, are you interested in listening?
I was suddenly interested, I thought it was love and hatred, so I waved my hand, don't go to bed early.
After washing up, I just lay down for a while, and I heard a knock at the door, who did I ask?
There was a woman outside the door who said, "The little maid is sugar-coated, thinking that the official is drunk and thirsty, and has come to bring you some hot tea."
I thought to myself, it's really sugar-coated cannonballs.
