Chapter 17: Bazhen Lou borrowed wine to know the Son of Heaven, and Fengqi Palace fell into the dungeon with jade

The Bazhen Building is built in great style, with two floors. There are delicate woodcarvings on the four walls of the roof, and the people who come and go are either rich or noble. The guy running the hall at the door greeted him: "Second Master Zhu, please, is it still the old position today?" ”

Zhu Ran bowed his head.

Qin Yue then knew that this was a frequent visitor, and he was overjoyed in his heart: who is not to pit him?

The guy took them to the window position in the corner of the second floor, and Qin Yue reported the name of the dish without changing his face: "Glutinous rice and eight-treasure duck, rock sugar soft-shelled turtle, Longjing shrimp, osmanthus sugar lotus, honey radishes, sweet and sour loin, squirrel mandarin fish, corn pork rib soup." ”

The guy quickly memorized the name of the dish and said, "There is a newly caught hairy crab in the Qingbo River, can you have one?" ”

Qin Yue naturally nodded.

Since Qin Yue entered the Tao, he will not feel hungry if he doesn't eat. Nowadays, eating is not to fill a stomach, but to satisfy hunger. After ordering so much, Zhu Ran didn't say anything, but the entourage behind him was slandering: This little boy looks like he is not strong, but he can eat so much?

Before the dishes were served, Qin Yue heard Zhu Ran ask her: "The little boy is not from the capital?" ”

"Well, it's not. I'm coming to the capital...... Find relatives. Qin Yue said nonsense.

"What is the name of your relative? Where do you live? ”

How does that make me ...... Qin Yue raised her eyes in distress.

Zhu Ran looked into Qin Yue's eyes and knew that he was rude: "I actually know a lot of people in the capital, if Your Excellency can't find relatives, I can lend a little help." If nothing matters, you might as well try this spring's expedition. ”

"Thank you so much. But I'm not going to Chunfu. Qin Yue's eyes were indifferent.

Zhu Ran looked at these eyes and said with a smile: "I'm not actually called Zhu Ran." My surname is Zhu, and my single name is Lan Yan. Would you like to join the company? ”

If Qin Yue is from Jingguo, then he knows that this "Zhu Lan" is the name of today. But Qin Yue was not, so his expression did not change, but he just said casually: "I don't want to join the office." ”

Zhu Lan saw that Qin Yue did not kneel and salute, and refused to be an official, only thinking that she was arrogant as a literati, and did not think deeply. The entourage behind him looked surprised: when did the Holy Lord reveal his name to others when he was outside? Now in order to summon this little boy into the court, he even showed his identity. Isn't this clearly a threat? But the little boy refused.

Zhu Lan said again: "Look at your chess skills and know that you are a person." I thought you were up to the task, so why did you refuse? ”

It's a pity that Qin Yue is a southerner, and the front and back nasal sounds are not very clear. The word "I", which is very identifying, was heard by her as "positive", and the semantics were still coherent. So she still didn't know what kind of figure was sitting in front of her.

Why don't you get in...... Qin Yue silently replied in his heart: Because I still have to cultivate immortals-of course I can't say that. Qin Yue thought about it for a while, and then said the truth euphemistically: "In this life, I would like to find the place where Gu shoots the mountain (1)." ”

Zhu Lan frowned: "The immortals are slim and cannot be found." You'd better rest your thoughts. "Spring is approaching, and candidates from all over the world often gather in Pinxian Ju to talk about the past and the present. He likes to go to the teahouse to listen to the opinions of the scholars of the dynasty, and sometimes he can benefit from one or two. Today let him meet a scheming talent, and he really wanted to recruit.

At this moment, the dishes have been served, and Zhu Lan said: "Wei Shou, pour wine." ”

Wei Shou is Zhu Lan's entourage. He took out a bottle of wine and respectfully stepped forward to fill it for the two of them.

Qin Yue took a sip, and the aroma of wine overflowed. Qin Yue praised: "Good wine!" Dare to ask what's the name? ”

Zhu Lan said: "This wine is called Drunken Spring. ”

Drunken Spring ...... Why is it so familiar? Qin Yue thought as she drank. reacted suddenly: Wasn't it the wine that Mo Yun stole when he went deep into the inner palace?

Qin Yue finally came to his senses: "Are you from the royal family?" ”

At this time, Zhu Lan's expression was unpredictable. Wei Shou snorted: "Bold! ”

Luckily, they were sitting in a remote position, and the shouting didn't attract anyone else. Qin Yue hesitated: Do you want to stand up and salute or something...... Hey, forget it, there are many rules in the world, if you can't sit down if you stand up, how can you eat this table of good dishes?

So Qin Yue explained while eating: "I grew up in the mountains since I was a child, and I tasted and smelled the drunken spring as the royal wine, so I asked this question." Don't blame you for not knowing etiquette. ”

There is nothing flawed in this rhetoric. Zhu Lan asked slowly, "Mo Ning...... Is that really your name? ”

Mo Ning is the name of the road, and Qin Yue is the name...... Forget it, everyone calls her Mo Ning. Qin Yue nodded.

Zhu Lan said: "I have named you as a pawn from the Eight Rank Hanlin Academy, why do you think it is?" "He originally wanted to be the editor of the seventh grade, but people who have never had a reputation for entering the court are all sealed from the ninth grade first. He was afraid of making enemies for this little boy Mo...... In the future, it will slowly rise up.

This time, Qin Yue heard the word "I" clearly, and almost didn't swallow the fish bones in his mouth. Stay in the world as an official? Naturally, I can't say yes. She didn't care about the consequences of disrespecting the will, so she flew back to the sect in stealth and disappeared.

Zhu Lan saw that she didn't answer for a long time, and immediately became angry: "Don't tell me that you are going to seek immortals and ask, you can't enter the court as an official." Is there any immortal in this world? If you don't tell me the reason for the right manager today, I will cure you for the crime of deceiving the king. ”

Qin Yue was sad and angry: Xun Xian asked, what a serious reason.

He once said that those who are emperors in the world are all people who have great merits in their previous lives. or self-denial, self-denial, self-denial; Or Ze was Li Min, seeking a good party. Qin Yue has always admired this kind of person, so in the face of a real emperor's aggressive questioning at this moment, he did not throw his sleeves and leave, but made up a reason quite seriously: "I don't hide it." I am a woman, how can I be an official in the same dynasty as a man? ”

Wei Shou was so shocked that he didn't hold the wine bottle in his hand. The wine bottle fell to the ground with a "clang", and the drunken spring was scattered on the ground. Wei Shou hurriedly knelt down and confessed.

Zhu Lan's heart moved, and her eyes deepened. I really thought it was a handsome boy with a face like a crown of jade, but now I look at it again, but it is clear that he is a beautiful woman with bright eyes and bright teeth.
