Chapter 288: Listening to Yun Xuan eavesdropping
Thinking of this, Xue Qing had a hint of enlightenment. www.biquge.info In fact, no matter if you are this party or that party, no matter what your political interests and propositions are, as long as you work under the framework of the imperial court and the emperor, you will always be a screw in the system. No matter how openly and secretly you fight or die to the death, you restrain each other. It is nothing more than a means used by the emperor to balance the world.
It's like a monkey show. Exactly. Political ambitions or something have been seen through by Xue Qing. Pretty boring.
When I arrived at Tingyunxuan, I heard that Huo Qu's illness was already in a private room in the back. The private room was like a small courtyard, with only one door, one room, and a small garden outside. Huo Quzhi was sitting in the house, and when he saw Xue Qing, he complained: "Why did you come, but you went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to talk about it?" Have those old horsemen ever embarrassed you? ”
Xue Qing said: "No, let's talk about business." Do you think it's okay here? ”
Huo Quzhi nodded: "It's novel and chic." Peaceful environment. But after all, there is no comfort at home. ”
Isn't this Nima nonsense, the people of later generations, who is not more than one square. Even the villa of the local tyrant is only a few hundred square meters, which is like the aristocracy of this year, a mansion can occupy several acres of land, and dozens of acres in the countryside. There are all kinds of rockery gardens and ponds in the courtyard, and when you catch up with the garden, how can a wine shop compare?
However, there are some things in the wine store that are not available at home, such as this meal. Another example is this entertainment service.
But to put it back, Huo Qu's illness is different from others. Because Huo Quzhi can eat such meals at home. So there's no point in coming here.
Now the Hou Mansion eats differently from other people's homes, and other people's families sit separately, but Huo Quzhi and Xue Qing are as good as one person, and they don't dislike each other's saliva, so they still share a few cases as if they were at home. If the flower waits on the side, there will be no one else.
When the meal is served, there are more tricks than at home. Huo Quzhi was overwhelmed. exclaimed: "It's the emperor's imperial meal, and it's not as good as listening to Yunxuan." "This crow's mouth.
Huo Quzhi asked Ruhua, who was pouring wine next to him, while eating: "Such a good taste, it must be rushing, and the business should be good." ”
Ruhua shallowly poured half a glass of wine for Huo Qu and said: "We heard that Yunxuan has only opened for a short time, and many big masters in Chang'an City have never heard of it, maybe they know it, but they think it may not be worthy of the name, it is just an ordinary wine shop." Over time, it will definitely become an excellent place for drinking and banquets in Chang'an City. Hou Ye has not yet recovered. The doctor said yesterday that he could drink half a cup a day to activate the blood. It can't be too much. ”
Xue Qing said: "Then take down the wine jug." lest your lord be like a greedy cat. ”
Huo Quzhi smiled awkwardly, picked up the wine cup, and usually drank it all, but now he could only take a shallow sip, smash it, smash it, and smash it. Save and enjoy slowly.
Ruhua poured a light for Xue Qing and said, "Then the slave maid took down the wine jug, does Your Highness want to have some show or something?" ”
Xue Qing nodded: "Well, let's get a Jinse." ”
After a while, a graceful woman came to the screen in front of the table. Holding Jinse. is still in the middle and upper posture, and it is smoked by the style, which looks fluttering. Sit on a soft stool. With a shallow nod, he danced with his ten fingers, and a tactful and melodious song poured out.
Huo Quzhi bit his chopsticks and looked at them for a while, and said, "While eating, singing and dancing." Tsk, but there is no such treatment in the wine shop. Except for the princes and nobles, where can there be such enjoyment. ”
Xue Qing said: "Except for this gentle song. There are also some people who make jokes and say funny things. It's even a trick. After all, it's a matter of entertainment, stuffy eating, eating without sleeping, and there is no need for it here. ”
Huo Quzhi nodded: "It's really good, after a while, when the reputation is out, the business will definitely be booming." ”
It's just a song. The beauty stood up and saluted. Xue Qing said: "Like a flower, I appreciated it." Ruhua took out a small piece of gold and handed it to the beauty. The beauty gave another salute and left.
Ruhua closed the door and said with a smile: "I have to hand over a large part of the reward money." The day before yesterday, a rich man rewarded him with thirty gold for his burlesque. I heard that I was out of breath with laughter, so I took the gold and smashed it one by one, and the servant's feet were smashed with a bag of the boss. I have to be accompanied by a smiling face. ”
Xue Qing said: "It's the hardest thing to come out to perform, this is still someone you like, if you are a little deliberately embarrassed." That's all kinds of bitterness. Let's give him two more gold to make soup and medicine. ”
Ruhua said: "The slave and maid thanked His Highness for his reward." ”
Xue Qing asked again: "Well, how did you arrange this intelligence spy?" Maybe it's some eavesdropping on the wall, or some lame trick hidden in the corner. ”
Ruhua smiled: "How can it." Listening to Yunxuan, up and down, singing, singing songs, passing food, pouring wine. It's all our people. There is also a good thing, we have hidden a dark compartment in each room, which is sealed, and there is a copper bowl in it, and several gold threads are connected to it. Walk the line through the wall, hide in a secret place, and attach a thin copper cup, and put your ear close to the copper cup, so that you can hear the sound of the other room clearly. ”
Xue Qing was stunned: "This ...... Is this a study of the Heavenly Dao? ”
Ruhua said: "That's right. Would you like to take a look, Your Highness? ”
Huo Quzhi couldn't bear it and said, "Let's go, let's go and have a look." ”
Xue Qing waved her hand and said, "Where is that copper bowl in this room buried?" ”
Ruhua pointed to a few cases, Xue Qing looked at it on her stomach, knocked it, and couldn't see anything strange. asked Ruhua to find a storyteller and let him lower his voice a little, just like the two of them were talking carefully opposite each other. Then let Ruhua take it and go to the secret room at the back.
The space in the secret room is quite large, and dozens of rooms here are all listening here, just like a eavesdropping storm. Every private room with a class has someone who is responsible for monitoring and recording. No one spoke. Only listen and write.
Xue Qing and Huo Quzhi walked to a copper cup under the leadership of Ruhua, took it down and listened carefully, and sure enough, they heard it very clearly.
When I was a child, I played with this thing in nature class, but all I used was cotton thread and two paper cups. In two rooms with children, I shouted all kinds of things, but I couldn't hear them clearly without paper cups.
Paper cups and cotton threads, that effect is obviously not good. And the sound produced by the vibration of copper is much stronger. There is very little attenuation of the sound rays conducted by the gold wire. It's a truly ingenious design. (To be continued.) )
