Chapter 163
Li Chenan and Shang Di were talking about Wen Xiaowan in the Old Rain Building.
In the Xiangfu of the Splendid Alley, in the Lingyan Pavilion on the Lingyan Lake, Ji Tai, the prime minister of Ning Guo, was also drinking with an old man in a wheelchair.
Wine is a picture of spring.
The dish that goes well with sake is extremely simple.
Just a plate of peanuts and a plate of thinly sliced braised pork head.
If people who don't know still think that this prime minister is incorruptible, in fact, it is only because the old man in a black robe in a wheelchair only likes these two kinds of snacks.
Ji Tai poured a glass of wine for the black-robed old man, "You really don't get tired of eating peanuts and pig's head meat for so many years?"
The black-robed old man drank all the wine in the cup in one gulp, lifted his sleeves and wiped his mouth, reached out and twisted a piece of pig's head meat and put it in his mouth.
He didn't have a few teeth in his mouth, so he was almost grinding with his gums.
It's a bit slow.
But Ji Tai had long been accustomed to it, so he looked at him like this, silently waiting for him to grind the piece of pig's head meat before swallowing it.
After a full thirty breaths, the old man in the black robe stretched out his neck, and the green tendons on his neck even protruded.
He swallowed the piece of meat, and a wry smile appeared on his shriveled face, "Peanuts really can't be eaten, I can only taste the taste, I can only spit it out...... Feed the birds or feed the fish. ”
Saying this, he really twisted another peanut, his mouth was slowly squirming again, this time after half a cup of tea, he spit out the peanut that was still intact in his mouth into Lingyan Lake.
The fish in the lake seemed to know this, and they seemed to have been waiting.
When the peanuts just fell into the water, they actually came to the chrysalis, and some even jumped out of the water!
That's a big school of fish!
The fish stirred up ripples in circles and endured.
The black-robed old man watched like this until the ripples on the surface of the lake subsided, and then he suddenly said, "If I die, don't forget to feed them." ”
Ji Tai smiled slightly:
"I'm worried that they're getting used to the taste in your mouth and won't eat the peanuts I spilled. ”
The black-robed old man pondered for a moment:
"If it's a fish, they can't refuse the taste of food, even if they can tell the difference in taste, even if they know that the food is full of danger...... They still come to forage for food. ”
"You like fishing, the fish in this Lingyan Lake are caught and put down by you, put down and catch again, and even you catch the same fish several times!"
"You see, this is the stupidity of the fish, put on the body of man...... And so it is!"
Ji Tai's sparse eyebrows raised slightly, and he poured a full glass of wine for the black-robed old man and handed it over, "But some fish are extremely cunning, they swim outside the school, no matter how I tempt them, they just don't bite the hook, what should I do?"
The black-robed old man also grinned, and his mouth with few teeth looked very gloomy, like a pitch-black hole.
"But you don't just know how to fish, you can also cast nets!"
"Hey...... Speaking of casting the net, in the past 20 years, I have spared no effort to expand the Fish and Dragon Society, and suppressed the Lijing Division at any cost, and even aroused the hostility of the old dog of the eldest grandson Jinghong. ”
But twenty years later, the fish has never caught in the net. ”
"If he were still alive, he would be twenty years old!"
"If he doesn't know anything, he's a foolish fish, and it doesn't matter if he can't catch it...... But if the emperor knows the news that he is still alive......"
Ji Tai let out a long sigh, he stood up, grabbed a handful of peanuts from the plate and stood by the railing, he threw the peanuts in his hand into the Lingyan Lake one by one, and sure enough, it attracted a large group of fish to snatch it.
"Your Majesty, although he has been obsessed with Taoism all these years, you and I know the reason why he is obsessed with Taoism. ”
"He ordered to kill Lu Zhan who was waiting for Lu Zhan to get on the car, you old thing is a little ruthless in doing this!"
Ji Tai threw the remaining peanuts in his hand into the lake, and the lake boiled like boiling water because of the predation of those fish, but he turned around, looked at the back of the black-robed old man in the wheelchair, and said:
"At that time, Queen Lu happened to be pregnant with the dragon species, but you used a trick to let Lu Zhanxiao have a huge military power, and then single-handedly sow discord, so that the emperor was suspicious of Lu Zhanxiao, and in a fit of anger, he made that will. ”
"The water of Huanhua Creek was stained red by the blood of the Lu family, and then your legs were broken by your junior brother Wen Zhuyu, and you also knocked out a mouthful of teeth!"
"Queen Lu has not been abolished, this is your first miscalculation!"
This is enough to show the emperor's favor for Empress Lu...... After all, Empress Lu was the queen chosen by the emperor himself, and the emperor was not the emperor at that time, and the emperor was still the crown prince at that time...... When the emperor ascended the throne as emperor, he canonized Lu Qiushuang as the queen. ”
"Of course, this is also the reason why the old lady of the Lu clan is the princess of the Yue Kingdom, although she has long since died. ”
"Lu Qiushuang, this woman, you underestimated her, she didn't fall because the Lu family was destroyed!"
"She gave birth to that child!"
"The living record is a son!"
"If he is still alive, he is the rightful prince!"
"The child disappeared at the time of the full moon, and Lu Qiushuang was completely crushed, and she committed suicide by hanging herself...... I thought that her death was also your handiwork, but later I realized that I guessed wrong. ”
"You didn't do anything to steal the child, so after she died, even if she searched the palace, the child would not be seen alive or dead, as if she had disappeared out of thin air. ”
Ji Tai walked to the table and sat down opposite the black-robed old man again.
The black-robed old man listened carefully, grinding a piece of pig's head meat in his mouth.
He listened with relish.
He also chewed with relish.
He laughed again, and his words were a little vague: "Isn't this also your wish? Empress Lu is not dead, where is Concubine Ji on the throne?"
"If Empress Lu doesn't die, how can the emperor be obsessed with Taoism to seek immortality?
"Without all this, you don't have all of this!"
"As for the kid...... Twenty years have passed, and even if he lives, he can only live humbly, because if he had a little cleverness, he would not have become the fish that bites the hook or catches the net!"
"Everything is in your hands, just wait, wait for the second prince to ascend the throne, and everything will be settled. ”
After saying this, the black-robed old man chewed for a while, stretched his neck and swallowed this piece of meat, and suddenly asked suspiciously: "This Li Chen'an...... The difference between before and after is so big that it should be noted!"
Ji Tai pondered for a moment and shook his head, "The age is not right." ”
"Besides, Li Chunfu's old thing didn't have the right time to return to Guangling. ”
The black-robed old man didn't seem to think about Li Chen'an's matter anymore, but said: "Spreading the news of Wen Xiaowan is a stinky move!"
Ji Tai looked at the black-robed old man: "It's not to catch your junior brother so that I can avenge you!"
"Do you suspect that the stealing of the child was done by the warm boil?"
"Who knows? You'll always have to catch him and ask him. ”
"He hasn't been heard from for so many years, as if he has disappeared from the world, he is a cunning fish, even if Wen Xiaowan is really his daughter, with what I know about him, I am afraid he will not be taken the bait because of this. ”
"I'm worried that it's the eldest grandson who bites the hook...... This fish is so big, I'm afraid you're not just losing the bait, you're going to tear the line out of your hand!"
Ji Tai was silent for a long time, drank a glass of wine, and raised his eyes to look at the face of the black-robed old man, "The emperor is on his way back to the palace." ”
"The general of the Yulin Army and the commander of the city defense department are both old man's people. ”
"You say...... Does the eldest grandson dare to bite the hook?"
