Coming out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Wu Scorpion said in his heart, sent away Erong'an, and had to encircle another god. He pondered, this god doesn't like anything else, he likes some calligraphy and painting antiques, and it is most convenient for this kind of thing to go to Panjiayuan. So, he sent a sedan chair and came to Panjiayuan step by step, looking for it one by one.

I don't want to, as soon as I walked into the street, I was stopped by a person, this person was none other than Luo Qingsong, the patrol general of Panjiayuan. Luo Qingsong got acquainted with a lot of people, and when he saw Wu Scorpion, he said from his horse: "Old Wu, if you don't participate in others in the yamen, what are you doing in my Pan Jiayuan?" ”

Wu Scorpion smiled: "It turned out to be General Luo." Look at you, you're joking again, aren't you? What Lao Wu did was the messenger, there was no way to do it, so don't laugh at me. ”

Luo Qingsong jumped off the horse and said, "Let's go, I'm fine today, let's find a place to drink." ”

Wu Scorpion said in his heart, he was busy for a long time, and he was indeed a little hungry in his belly. So, he hugged his fists and said: "Let's go, I haven't been drinking with the general for a long time, how about we go to the Drunken Immortal Tower?" ”

Luo Qingsong said okay, he didn't ride a horse, he followed the horse, but he and Wu Scorpion came to the Drunken Immortal Tower on foot. The bartender of the Drunken Immortal Building saw that it was two officials, so he hurriedly invited him to sit upstairs. Luo Qingsong and Wu Scorpion went upstairs and sat in the Dongmei private room.

While wiping the table, the bartender asked the two masters, "What do you want to use?" ”

Luo Qingsong replied: "Grilled beef tongue, salted water hooves, egg meat, fried mushrooms, stir-fried beans, potatoes, and a pot of Wulin spring wine." ”

The bartender wrote them down one by one and went to the kitchen to make a report. After a while, the wine and food were served, and the two had a drink. After three glasses of wine. Luo Qingsong asked, "I heard that Lao Wu is the best at mind reading. Just one look at me will tell what is going on in my heart. Old Wu, are you really so weird? But I didn't believe it. Then. Guess what I'm thinking. ”

Wu Scorpion took a pair of chopsticks and mushrooms and said while eating: "What kind of bullshit mind reading is all a trick of the Mongolian people." If you want to talk about mind reading, if you want me to say, Lao Wu admires Cao Cao the most. A hero, playing is mental art. Wu Lao'er just knows a few tricks, and he can't talk about any mental skills. ”

Luo Qingsong was determined to play a mental trick, but Wu Scorpion couldn't grind him, so he had to pretend to look at him carefully and said, guessing: "Is the general missing the little lady at home at this time?" ”

Luo Qingsong almost didn't spit out a sip of wine: "Is your head filled with wine?" Brother, I haven't gotten married yet. Where did the little lady come from? Don't talk about the little lady, there is no big lady. ”

Wu Scorpion thought for a while, and then stepped on it: "It's not that you want to be a little lady, but you want to think that this month's tax is enough?" ”

Luo Qingsong laughed and said, "Brother, I don't need these taxes to spend." ”

Wu Scorpion guessed a few more times and couldn't be sure, so he had to laugh and say: "Lao Wu's mental skills all rely on pondering, there are antecedents to push the consequences, such a gratuitous antecedent like the general, Lao Wu can't guess the consequences even if he is a fairy." ”

Luo Qingsong said: "After talking for a long time, Lao Wu's mental skills are all fake. It turned out to be worthless. ”

With such an agitation, Wu Scorpion was a little annoyed, and said angrily: "Old Wu's mental skills are not fake, but they vary from person to person. People like the generals. Lao Wu hasn't had time to think about it, so he naturally can't guess that he is going to change the current emperor. Lao Wu is a guess. ”

Luo Qingsong sighed and asked nonchalantly, "You can talk about it first." See if it's bragging. ”

Only then did Wu Scorpion show his ability to be an official for many years. Not to mention anything else, just talk about the balance of the current emperor's control of hundreds of officials. That's amazing. The emperor's decision-making with ministers has always been one article and one martial arts, one full and one Han, like Zhang Tingyu in the current court is a Han person, the main text; And Ortai is a Manchurian, the main martial arts. No emperor can allow a minister to form a party for personal gain, and Qianlong is the same. However, looking at Qianlong's countermeasures for dealing with the two parties, he did not defeat one party, nor did he lose both. Therefore, there is a distinction between the Zhang Party and the Hubei Party in the DPRK and the Central Committee today. Most of the Manchus are attached to Ortai, and most of the Han people are Zhang Tingyu's protégés.

Luo Qingsong was impressed when he heard this, nodded and said: "Lao Wu has some truth, it seems that Lao Wu is also the first-class Zhang Dang." ”

Wu Scorpion drank a glass of wine and said with a smile: "If you really follow the trend and join the one-party dispute, then Lao Wu will not be able to mix today." Lao Wu's countermeasures are the same as those of the emperor, neither echoing any party nor offending any party, which is the golden mean. ”

Luo Qingsong admired and said: "Jiang is still old and spicy, and Lao Wu is really cunning." ”

Wu Scorpion praised himself for being cunning, and he was very proud. At this time, Luo Qingsong's heart moved, poured a glass of wine for Wu Scorpion, toasted a glass of wine, and asked softly: "Speaking of mental skills, Lao Wu, you can really sue me, can you guess what is on a woman's mind?" ”

Wu Scorpion laughed when he heard this, looked at Luo Qingsong and asked, "Do you dare to have a woman in the general's heart?" ”

Luo Qingsong smiled, did not deny it, and still asked: "You just say that you can guess it or not, what are you doing with all this nonsense?" ”

Wu Scorpion drank wine, and with the strength of the wine, he opened his mouth and said: "Don't hide it from the general, Lao Wu ponders that there are many men, and he knows a little about women." In Lao Wu's view, women are nothing more than greedy for money and beauty, as long as men are willing to give up things, most women are in the trap. ”

Luo Qingsong was overjoyed and hurriedly asked, "Is this true?" ”

Wu Scorpion was already in a drunken coma, and said confidently: "Of course it's true, those women in my family are all fished like this, what do women do with you without eating or drinking?" It's a question that doesn't take a brain to figure out. ”

Luo Qingsong said in his heart, it turns out that this is the case, how can he not understand the amorous feelings. Thinking, in the days of knowing her, he has never bought anything for her? No wonder she has always been cold to herself, it turns out that this is because of this.

While he was pondering, Wu Scorpion deliberately showed off his mental skills, and quietly leaned over and said to Luo Qingsong: "If you don't believe it, let's make a bet." ”

Luo Qingsong came back to his senses and asked, "What are you betting on?" ”

Wu Scorpion pointed to the two bartenders outside the hall and said, "Let's bet on them." ”

Luo Qingsong was not interested, and said, "What do they have to bet on? ”

Wu Scorpion said: "If you want to bet on people's hearts, you must first learn to read people, which is like a fortune teller on the street." If you look at what you are wearing, what you are holding, and what your walking posture is, you can also guess from these clothing characteristics. ”

Luo Qingsong was not interested in the two bartenders, glanced at them casually, and asked lazily, "Tell me first, what do they have to gamble on?" ”

Wu Scorpion said: "We can't gamble in vain, we have to have gambling money to succeed." That's it, I'm right, the master gave me ten taels of silver to bet on; I said no, how about I give the master a tael of silver? ”

Luo Qingsong snorted and asked, "That's not right, if you win, how can I give you ten taels; If you lose, how can you give me a tael. ”

Wu Scorpion said: "I'm different from the master." How much silver does the master collect in a month, and how much does Lao Wu only pay in a month? You say, don't you? ”

Luo Qingsong had nothing to refute, so he had to say: "It's so decided, you should talk about it quickly." ”

Wu Scorpion looked at the bartender carefully, and said for a long time: "Look at this bartender, although they are all wearing the bartender clothes of the Drunken Immortal Building, there are a lot of spring and autumn inside. The bartender on the left has a poor family, and he has not yet married a wife at his forty-five or sixteen years. He has a gentle temperament and is honest in his hospitality, but he does not like the store. The bartender on the right, with one wife and one concubine in the family, lives a fairly wealthy life. He has an impatient temperament and likes to instruct people, but his mouth is as sweet as a spring, and he is the best at attracting guests. ”

Luo Qingsong asked: "It's just these reasons, I just wonder how you know how you know that one is married and the other is not married." Do they have it written on their faces? I am afraid that those forty-five or sixteen already have wives in their families, and I am afraid that the young ones have never married a wife. ”

Wu Scorpion smiled and said, "If you don't believe it, just ask." ”

Luo Qingsong was full of curiosity, waved his hand and shouted to the two bartenders: "Little Er! ”

The two bartenders turned around after hearing the sound, and at the same time looked at Luo Qingsong and asked, "Which is your name?" ”

Luo Qingsong said, "You two come here." ”

Fortunately, there were not many guests upstairs at this time, and the two bartenders rushed to the same time. The young bartender came over first, bowed down and smiled at Luo Qingsong: "Hello, what does the master command?" The dishes don't fit the mouth, just say, the little ones go to the kitchen and reprimand them. They don't look at who is coming, anyone can fool around? Feelings: These cooks want to beg for a beating. ”

This bartender is really clever and clever. Goodbye to the old bartender, be careful, don't ask, let the young bartender speak, and just stand with his hands down.

Luo Qingsong asked, "Let me ask you first, what is your name?" Where do you live and do you have a wife at home? ”

The two bartenders were a little dizzy, and they never saw the guests come in and ask them where they lived, and whose names they were. The young bartender hurriedly replied, "Little Qian Liu, his family lives in Dongzhuang, and he has a wife in his family. ”

Luo Qingsong looked at Wu Scorpion and asked Qian Liudao, "Is there only one wife in the family?" ”

Qian Liu nodded yes.

Wu Scorpion was not convinced, pointed to a sachet exposed on the inside of his pocket and said, "Who are you fooling?" This sachet is obviously sewn by the women of the Song family, do you dare to say that there is only one wife? ”

Qian Liu was embarrassed, thinking that it was the old man of Shuntianfu who had checked the mouth, and hurriedly replied: "The little one should be damned." Don't hide it from the master, although the little one has a wife at home, he is fierce in his life, and the little one likes to be young and gentle, so he bought a yard in Xizhuang and lived alone with the Song family. ”

Wu Scorpion laughed and said: "I know so, you want to hide it from me, in the next life." ”

Luo Qingsong convinced his eyes, and simply asked the older bartender: "Why don't you marry a daughter-in-law when you are old?" Is there a relationship sickness? ”

The older bartender was very different, and hurriedly bowed down and asked, "How does the master know that the younger one is unmarried?" The young Zhao Si, because his mother was sick all the year round and had no money to marry a wife, he was alone until now. ”

Wu Scorpion laughed. Luo Qingsong waved his hand to let the two bartenders retreat, took out ten taels of silver from his arms, put them on the table, and said again and again: "Old Wu is worthy of being a Wu scorpion, brother, I admire it tightly." (To be continued......)
