Chapter 606: Tricks
"Great!" Qi Dai Zhudan slapped the table and instructed Qi Lixu: "Go and bring us a few jars of wine!" ”
"No need!" Lu Xiaoxian waved his hand and said: "In Chang'an, His Royal Highness is a guest, and the Tang people have always been hospitable, as the host, how can you drink the guest's wine?" ”
Li Zhiying and Li Nunu couldn't help but nod after listening to Lu Xiaoxian's words.
Lu Xiaoxian said to Cui Xiang: "Master Cui, please send someone to buy a few jars of good wine!" ”
"Master Lu, you don't know anything!" Cui Xiang was embarrassed, "There is ready-made good wine in the Sifang Pavilion, but His Royal Highness Zhudan doesn't drink the wine we prepared, he thinks our wine is not strong enough, and he is tired of drinking, so he only drinks the barley wine he brought." ”
Zhu Dan nodded on the side and said, "Cui Shilang is right, I only drink Tibetan barley wine. ”
Lu Xiaoxian thought to himself, it seems that he really loves to drink, and he actually brought the barley wine from Tubo to Chang'an from thousands of miles away, how much barley wine does he have to bring.
seemed to have guessed Lu Xiaoxian's thoughts, and said boldly: "Lu Gongzi just drink with confidence, when I came to Chang'an, I prepared three hundred jars of barley wine, and pulled ten carts, and it was more than enough to drink until I returned to Tibet." ”
Lu Xiaoxian was completely speechless, he hadn't seen a person who was a good drinker, but it was the first time he had seen someone as persistent as a ruler with Zhudan. In order to drink his favorite wine, he did not hesitate to pull 300 jars of barley wine to Chang'an from Tubo, thousands of miles away, which can be seen.
At this moment, Lu Xiaoxian and Zhu Dan were sitting opposite each other, each with a large bowl in front of them
Qili Xu skillfully slapped open the seal of a jar of wine, and the rich aroma of wine suddenly spread, he held the sealed jar of wine, and poured the wine into the sea bowl in front of the two, the two bowls poured exactly the same, not a drop of wine spilled, the whole action was done in one go, obviously it was not the first time he had done this kind of errand.
Although the competition has not yet begun, the dreary mountain rain is coming, and the depressed Li Zhiying and Li Nunu are breathless. They didn't dare to come out, staring intently at Lu Xiaoxian and Qi Dai Zhudan, who seemed to be more nervous than the two on the field.
Lu Xiaoxian suddenly turned his head, looked at Cui Xiang and said dissatisfiedly: "Master Cui, you are too stingy!" Even if we're making a bet, we'll have to prepare a few side dishes, right? ”
Cui Xiang patted his head and said, "I really forgot about this stubble, wait a while, I'll come when I go!" ”
"Wait!" Zhu Dan said suddenly.
"What's wrong?" Lu Xiaoxian looked at the ruler with Zhu Dan in surprise.
"In Tibet, drinking wine is drinking, not eating. ”
"Of course!" Speaking of this, Qi Daizhu Dan paused and said, "You can also eat first and then drink!" ”
"Dry?" Lu Xiaoxian glanced at the ruler belt Zhudan, and muttered depressedly: "Okay! No food, no food! ”
Qi Dai Zhu Dan was about to speak, but Lu Xiaoxian rolled his eyes, and preemptively said to Qi Dai Zhu Dan: "Your Highness, you also said just now, since it is a bet, you must be fair!" If it's not fair, even if you win, it's not interesting, don't you say? ”
"Of course!" Zhu Dan nodded.
"Your Highness, you said that you wanted to drink barley wine, and I relied on you. If you don't want to eat, I'll follow you! You can't just have the final say, how to drink this wine, is it my turn to have the final say? ”
"No problem!" Qi Dai Zhu Dan said boldly: "Lu Gongzi, listen to you, how you say to drink, we will drink!" ”
Lu Xiaoxian said to Cui Xiang: "Brother Cui, please find a pair of dice." ”
When Li Zhiying and Li Nunu heard this, they almost didn't laugh out loud, this Lu Xiaoxian is too cunning, if he wants to throw the dice and drink, I'm afraid he doesn't know how Zhu Dan died.
The two of them couldn't hold back their laughter, and Cui Xiang said yes and walked out of the living room.
"Drinking is drinking, what do you want dice?" Zhu Dan couldn't help frowning.
"Of course it's a guess of the size, whoever loses will drink!" Lu Xiaoxian explained: "If it's just you and me pouring a bowl into your stomach, not only will the two of us be very boring, but even the people watching next to you will find it boring." ”
Speaking of this, Lu Xiaoxian looked at Li Zhiying and Li Nunu: "You say, right?" ”
The two smiled, nodded in unison, and said, "That's right! ”
Lu Xiaoxian looked at the hatred water again: "The master of the Qiu Hall has lived in the Central Plains for a long time, and he should know that the dice are one of the six Bo in the Tang Dynasty Bo play, and the wine order is often used as a 'wine entertainment' utensil, right?" ”
"I know!" Hate Water nodded cautiously.
"That's the end of it!" Lu Xiaoxian said to Zhu Dan, "Your Highness, your subordinates have agreed, what else do you have to say?" “
Hatred Water couldn't help but be angry when he heard it: I only said that I knew that the dice were the "entertainment" utensils during the Tang Dynasty's wine order, when did I agree to His Highness to roll the dice? It's a bummer, isn't it?
Hatred Water was about to refute, but he listened to the ruler Zhu Dan impatiently and said: "Okay, it's up to you!" ”
Qidai Zhudan was very confident in his amount of wine, and he was too lazy to entangle with Lu Xiaoxian anymore, so he readily agreed to his proposal. Hate Shui closed his eyes in pain, there was no doubt that the ruler belt Zhu Dan was completely calculated by Lu Xiaoxian.
After a while, Cui Xiang took a pair of dice and put them on the table.
Lu Xiaoxian explained the rules to the ruler with Zhudan: "One of us shakes once, I will guess if you shake the dice, I will shake you to guess, guess the other party to drink, guess the wrong person to drink, and cycle in turn, until one party loses or is drunk!" Your Highness, do you understand? ”
"Got it! Here we go! "Ruler Belt Zhu Dan can't wait.
"You're a guest, you invite first!" Lu Xiaoxian pointed to the dice.
Seeing that Zhu Dan picked up the dice on the table, Lu Xiaoxian's face smiled. Seeing Lu Xiaoxian's appearance of winning steadily, even Qili Xu had a hint of foreboding in his heart.
As expected, the ruler belt Zhudan lost, and he lost badly.
From beginning to end, Lu Xiaoxian only drank one bowl of wine, and the remaining jar of wine was basically wrapped in a beaded pill.
If it weren't for the fear that the face of the ruler with Zhudan would not look good, it is estimated that Lu Xiaoxian would not even drink this bowl.
At first, he was still not convinced, but after drinking a jar of wine, he finally understood a truth: if he drank with Lu Xiaoxian by throwing dice and drinking, he would only lose, and he would never win.
Hatred Water and Qi Li Xu's face is not to mention how ugly it is, watching Qi Dai Zhu Dan pour wine into his stomach one by one, Qi Li Xu stares at Hatred Water from time to time, it seems that it is all his fault.
Hatred Water is depressed in his heart, can this rely on him?
What is more depressing than the hatred water is the ruler with Zhu Dan, which is more than the amount of wine, it is obvious that Lu Xiaoxian is watching himself pour wine into his stomach bowl by bowl.
It's not fair! It's so unfair! Lu Xiaoxian was obviously cheating, but he couldn't blame Zhu Dan, after all, he agreed to the rules.
Lu Xiaoxian looked at the ruler with a smile and said, "Your Highness, if you admit defeat, our competition will end here, how about it?" ”
Although he was already drunk, he shook his head and said: "Tubo people don't have the habit of admitting defeat when they drink, open another altar, and we will continue to come." ”
In any case, Lu Xiaoxian's arrogance and courage still make Lu Xiaoxian admire, and such an opponent deserves respect.
After drinking four bowls in a row, his eyes were already blurry, and he trembled and picked up the fifth bowl, and said with a blur in his mouth: "I...... Defy...... I'm really not convinced...... Three days later...... Let's make another fair bet...... How is it? ”
Lu Xiaoxian looked at the ruler with Zhu Dan, nodded solemnly and said: "I accept your challenge, three days later, here and now, we will have a fair competition!" ”
After hearing this, he drank all the wine in the bowl in one go, and then fell to the ground.
Seeing this, Qi Li Xu hurriedly picked up the ruler belt Zhu Dan and ran quickly towards the place where he lived, and the hatred water followed closely behind.
Although Lu Xiaoxian won, he couldn't be happy, and sighed and said to Li Zhiying and Li Nunu: "Two county lords, I can only do this step!" If I want to deceive again, I can't bear it. Next time, it's hard to say whether you will win or lose, I hope the two county lords have a preparation in their hearts! ”
Li Zhiying couldn't help but be shocked when she heard this, she glanced at the empty sprinkling jar with palpitations, and her worry was overflowing: "Do you really want to fight with him?" ”
Li Zhiying's worries are not superfluous, ordinary people drink one or two catties of wine, and the larger amount of wine is three or five catties. Those who can drink seven or eight catties can no longer be counted as human beings, they are gods. And the ruler belt Zhudan is precisely such a god of wine.
Lu Xiaoxian smiled bitterly: "I'm a man, can I refuse?" ”
Lu Xiaoxian said this, which made Cui Xiang nod secretly.
Lu Xiaoxian said to Cui Xiang: "Master Cui, I'll go back first if I have something!" Three days later, at this hour, I will be waiting for you at the gate of the imperial city, and I will not be able to enter this place without you. ”
Cui Xiang also persuaded: "Master Lu, he has drunk more than ten catties this time, although your alcohol consumption is also good, but if you can't do it, admit defeat and give up!" ”
The barley wine is much stronger than the ordinary wine, this jar is about ten catties, after drinking a jar of beads, I drank five large bowls, and there are really more than ten catties. Don't say it's wine, even if it's so much water, it's not something that ordinary people can drink, of course Cui Xiang will worry about Lu Xiaoxian!
Lu Xiaoxian said lightly: "If you say it, the water that will be poured out, since you have agreed, you must go all out, and you will not regret it!" ”
After listening to Lu Xiaoxian's words, Li Zhiying, Li Nunu, and Cui Xiang were silent.
……
Three days later, in the large living room of the Sifang Pavilion, the scene was no different from three days ago.
Li Nunu and Li Zhiying are still dressed in men's clothes and arrived early.
Looking at the somewhat scary ruler belt bead pill with a gloomy face, Lu Xiaoxian said, "Your Highness, we still drink barley wine, and we still don't want to eat, as for the way of the competition......"
Before Lu Xiaoxian finished speaking, Zhu Dan slapped the table and shouted: "Don't roll the dice, and don't make any other mess, just drink one bowl of you and one bowl of me!" ”
Lu Xiaoxian stared blankly at the ruler belt Zhudan: "That's what I want to say!" ”
The anger of the ruler belt Zhudan continued: "Our bet must also be changed!" ”
