Chapter 548: The shopkeeper who knows the handwriting of the five princes
Originally, I was going to follow Situ Hong to say goodbye after lunch, since I asked for a good word, then I could find a shop that made a signboard in the afternoon to make a good signboard, and the barbecue shop would open tomorrow, but at this time, looking at the few princes in front of me, they raised the tea bowl in their hands and tasted the tea in small sips.
"Master Bi, this king heard that you went to take the exam of the Tribute Academy a few days ago, I don't know what the result is?" Several princes quietly drank their tea, and one of them raised his head to look at me and asked.
"Back to the prince, the results of the exam will not be announced until ten days later, three days have passed today, and it should be known in seven days." I replied respectfully.
"Hmm." The prince nodded slightly, and turned his head to look at the princes beside him, "Since Brother Ming has decided that Bi Gongzi is his son-in-law, he will definitely not find a mediocre talent, and it is not a problem to come to the palace for the examination." ”
"The prince praises it." Although my face is not thin, but listening to the princes in front of me praising themselves, my face can't help but flush with a burst of crimson.
The fifth prince turned his head to look at Situ Hong, his eyes were full of love, "Miss Situ, today's competition is only known to the king of the country, what is called the talent of the country, this king has a reluctant request, I wonder if Miss Situ can agree?" ”
"Lord Wang, please speak." Situ Hong said softly.
"This king wants to invite Miss Situ to come to this Nanfu from time to time, this king is very depressed, and it is a great kindness to be able to learn swordsmanship with Miss Situ!" The fifth prince said with a smile.
"If the prince is not afraid of harassment, the little girl will come from time to time." Situ Hong nodded.
"That's great!" The fifth prince heard it. He burst out laughing.
It's not too early to see the time, if you don't go to find someone to make a plaque, I'm afraid it's too late today, I got up and told the truth to the princes, all the princes nodded in understanding, and even the five princes nodded with concern, until the three of us were sent out of the gate of Nanfu before turning back.
can be sent out of the gate by the five princes of Nanfu, I'm afraid there are not many people in this world!
As soon as we left Nanfu, we rushed towards the store, originally I planned to let Yuqiong go back first, after all, she had been out for so long, and King Ming would be worried. But this girl just won't go back. As a last resort, I had to take her with me to the store.
Before I got close to the store, I saw that the four heroes of the capital were busy outside the store, and the ghost child had sharp eyes, and saw us at a glance, and immediately shouted. Mo Lu and Wang Wu rushed out when they heard the sound.
"Bi Gongzi. Miss Szeto. Are you back? Ay? Miss Yuqiong is also here! Wang Wuyi rushed out of the gate and ran straight to us, and said in a hurry.
"Bi Gongzi, have you found the word?" We didn't wait for us to answer. Mo Lu also rushed to the front.
I took out the white paper from my arms and handed it over, "I asked for it, the name of the store from King Ming, and the ink treasure left by the five princes!" ”
Mo Lu took the white paper and unfolded it gently, only to see three big characters written on the white paper, and Mo Lu read it out gently: "Zuixianglou, good words!" ”
Several other people couldn't help but come forward to check after listening to Mo Lu's words, and when they saw the words in front of them clearly, they also lost interest and went their own way.
Wang Wu and the red fox looked at the note in Mo Lu's hand with puzzled faces, and their faces were also full of puzzlement, Wang Wu raised his head and looked at me and asked, "Drunken Xianglou?" Bi Gongzi, if we don't sell wine in this store, it's not a building, how can we have the name of a drunken fragrance building? ”
I smiled and told me what had happened before, Wang Wu and Mo Lu all nodded after hearing it, and even the others couldn't stop nodding when they heard my explanation, and they praised it again and again.
Situ Hong and I led Yuqiong to walk into the store, and then took a look at the progress of the store, compared to yesterday's messy appearance, today the store has begun to take shape, clean up neatly and generously just waiting for the opening, it really seems to be Wang Wu's request, tomorrow the store will open.
Since there is the word of this signboard, that is, hurry up to order the signboard, I said hello to Mo Lu and they were ready to go out to find a signboard shop, Situ Hong next to me heard that she was going to go with her, but I was worried that she would be tired from running around and let her rest in this store, Yuqiong was understanding, and said with a smile that she would accompany Situ Hong in this store, Situ Hong didn't force it anymore when she heard it, but just said something to me with concern, I smiled at her, and then ran out of the store.
No one knows the size of the capital, I'm afraid that even today's emperor has not been to every place, not to mention the ancient saying that there are clouds and folk hidden dragons and crouching tigers, and the prosperity of the street market is not comparable to other places, although it is now afternoon, but the market is still full of bustling crowds and vendors, I followed the market all the way, and soon found a shop that made signs.
Without saying a word, I lifted my feet and walked in.
"Guest officer, the small shop specializes in signboards, what do you need?" As soon as I walked into the store, someone greeted me.
The person who greeted him had his hair curled on the top of his head, his eyebrows were slightly bent and his nose was high, he was wearing a blue-gray robe, and he was wearing a pair of gray cloth shoes on his feet.
I looked at the layout of the store, all kinds of cloth banners and wooden signs hung on the wall, it looked like a wall full of awards, I could see that the business of this store was good, I looked at the people in front of me: "I want to make a shop sign, dare to ask the shopkeeper can come out to discuss?" ”
"Down there's the shopkeeper of the little one." The man listened to my question and hurriedly answered.
I didn't say anything, and took the note out of my bosom, "Shopkeeper, that's the three words on the plaque to be made next!" ”
The shopkeeper reached out and took the note, looked at it with a shocked face, looked up at me and said, "Your word...... Is it the handwriting of the five princes of Nanfu? ”
"Exactly." I nodded and agreed, the handwriting of the five princes is known to the world, and it is not unusual for the shopkeeper to be able to see it.
The shopkeeper looked at me with a look of incredulity, "This ...... This......? ”
"What's wrong?" I looked at his expression and felt a little strange.
The word...... It's the handwriting of the five princes! After a long day of chattering, the shopkeeper finally finished speaking.
"Of course, if not, who will make you a sign?" I looked at him angrily and spoke.
When the shopkeeper heard me say this, his face suddenly became serious, and he arched his hand towards me and asked, "Dare to ask what the son is called?" ”
"Under the surname Bi!" I said.
"It turned out to be Bi Gongzi, please inside, please inside!" As the shopkeeper spoke, he raised his hand and made a gesture to me, watching his attitude change greatly, I couldn't help but wonder for a while, but I still raised my feet and walked into the room.
After entering the room, the shopkeeper poured me a bowl of tea, looking at the faint mist overflowing from the mouth of the tea bowl, smelling the tea that is obviously inferior to the tea in Nanfu, I am a little calm, the shopkeeper who can use tea to entertain guests must be extremely respectful to customers, besides, the tea in Nanfu is not ordinary people's homes!
"Bi Gongzi, please drink tea!" The shopkeeper poured tea full of tea and greeted softly.
"Thank you." I nodded, raised my hand and raised the tea bowl, as soon as the tea was in my mouth, a faint bitterness spread in my mouth, although it was not as good as good tea, but it was also slightly fragrant.
"Dare to ask where the word Bi Gongzi came from?" The shopkeeper watched me take a sip of tea and asked mysteriously in my ear.
"Huh?" I turned my head to look at him, not understanding what he meant.
As soon as the shopkeeper saw me looking at him, he suddenly looked a little cramped, "Don't misunderstand Bi Gongzi, I'm just curious, although the words of the five princes are seven of the literati in the world who can copy, but the three words in Bi Gongzi's hands are ......, and it can be seen that they are written by the five princes themselves!" ”
"Oh?" I looked at him in surprise, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Dare to ask the shopkeeper how did he know that these three words were from the hands of the five princes?" ”
