The sun was slanting, and Li Yan and Li Bei'er finally found the scholar at the door of an inn in Nanle County.

Ten years of hard study behind closed doors, rarely going out, and now looking at the guys in the inn is also strange.

He put down his back cage with a smile, took out a fist-sized oil hammer from it, sat on the ground against the wall, covered the occasional scraped grass foam with his hands, and ate unhurriedly, while his eyes kept staring at the haystack.

A gust of evil wind blew, and the scholar hurriedly used his body to protect the oil hammer, but it was still stained with a lot of grass foam, and he couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, but he was reluctant to throw it away, so he took it off one by one and ate it again.

Li Yan shook his head, walked closer, and said in a tone that he thought was very sour: "Brother Tai, do you know the truth of pulling the flag against the wind and peeing in the wind?" ”

Seeing that the person who came was also dressed as a Confucian student, the scholar hurriedly stood up, swallowed the food in his mouth, bowed down, and said, "Pull the flag against the wind, and face the wind...... Xiaosheng is stupid and doesn't know what it means. ”

Suddenly, I felt that it was undignified to say it, so I didn't continue, but I was still thinking about the meaning in my head.

Li Yan pulled him to the upwind outlet of the haystack and said, "You can't open the flag against the wind, and you will be wet with the wind." ”

Li Bei'er on the side was also thinking about it, but when she heard the answer, she was stunned for a moment, and then she suddenly woke up, and couldn't help covering her mouth and snickering.

The scholar didn't react as fast as Li Bei'er, but turned around and gestured, only to understand, like a great Zen machine, and said happily:

"Brother Yan is very knowledgeable, admire, admire, and he is easy to understand when he learns, and he is really a model for me."

Li Yan was surprised: "You know me? ”

The scholar was stunned for a moment, looked up and down, left and right for a while, and said, "I've never seen it." ”

Li Bei'er hurriedly stepped forward, leaned on Li Yan's ear, and said, "The inkstone of the inkstone is not the Yan of Xianggong." ”

"Oh...... Brother Yan, Brother Yan. Li Yan gave a salute in embarrassment, and then asked, "I don't know why Brother Yan didn't enter the store, but stayed at the door." ”

The scholar said pretendically: "Brother Yan, look, these people will crush the hay, what is the so-called reason? ”

Li Yan smiled bitterly in his heart, this scholar's brain is really stupid, I'm afraid even Geng Xiaosan'er knows that he is feeding horses.

But he felt ridiculous, so he pretended to be puzzled, and said: "Ouch, this, this is not good to say, I want to hear Brother Yan's opinion." ”

"According to my suspicion, there will be war in the north." The scholar is a serious person.

The sudden sublimation made Li Yan stunned, from a pile of hay, to the war of the country, his thinking was too jumpy.

According to Tong Guan, the imperial court really wants to unite Liao to destroy Jin, and the north does want to fight.

However, with such confidential information, it is obvious that the poor scholar will not know it in advance, and can he really speculate on national affairs from just a pile of haystacks?

That's amazing, isn't it?

Li Yan couldn't help asking, "You can see from the hay that you want to fight?" ”

"How could Brother Yan not know that the ancients had a cloud: the beautiful grass will be a battle, and the lonely horse is in danger." After saying that, the scholar sighed heavily and said sadly: "Xing, the people are suffering, dying, the people are suffering." ”

Ha ha......

The guys next to him couldn't help it, and couldn't help laughing, and one of them, a dark-skinned man with a strong body, said:

"The head of the reader—eight hundred bends; The scholar doesn't knock on the door - stupid to get home, this horse material is prepared for Li Daguan in Yanggu County, is it that Li Daguan is going to attack Bianliang? Haha......"

was mercilessly ridiculed by the men, and Li Yan and the scholars were extremely embarrassed.

Especially Li Yan, he should have thought that Fan Er bought it, and the three thousand horses eating and drinking were also a big problem, and he suddenly felt that he was stupid by this poor scholar.

Li Bei'er pursed her lips and smiled: "Let's go in and talk, I'm a little hungry." ”

Li Yan nodded, and then made a gesture of invitation to the scholar.

The scholar waved his hand and said, "If you go down, you won't go in." ”

"Why? It's getting dark, I can't hurry, and I haven't stopped staying at the hotel earlier, where is Brother Tai going? Li Yan wondered.

The scholar smiled a little unnaturally, a little ashamed, thought about it and thought, and said, "Xiaosheng, I don't have money to live in the store." ”

Li Yan's brows were furrowed, and a nameless fire rushed to the top of his head, because he asked Chen He to do this matter, and repeatedly stated that all the students who entered Beijing to take the exam came to the door, and without asking for any reason, they would all subsidize one hundred taels of silver, and the amount reported to the account office was also this amount, so why did this scholar not even have the money to live in the store.

Could it be that Chen He embezzled from it?

"Didn't Brother Tai go to find Li Yan on Cross Street?"

The scholar's tone was respectful and corrected: "If it weren't for Li Daguan, how could he have money to enter Beijing." ”

"That's weird, we also got Li Yan's funding, one hundred taels per person, enough to use in Tokyo, why don't you ......?"

"This ......" the scholar looked embarrassed, obviously not wanting to say it.

If you meet someone else, you won't continue to ask questions when you see this situation, but Li Yan is different, he must find out the truth of the matter, which is related to Chen He's character.

"Could it be that Li Yan is fake, and the silver that Brother Tai got is less than a hundred taels?"

As soon as these words came out, the scholar became displeased, and when he heard Li Yan call the name "Li Yan", he was disgusted, and at this time, his words were even more insulting, and he said hurriedly:

"Don't talk nonsense, how could Li Daguan do such a thing, he left the silver to his family."

Li Yan's hanging heart finally fell, thinking that Chen He would not be greedy for the money of poor scholars, after all, he is now the director of the newspaper, and there will be a large amount of silver money every day, how can he care about the one hundred and eighty taels of silver.

"That's okay, I have the one hundred taels with me, and I can't spend them anyway, so my brother can spend them with me." Li Yanhao said coolly.

The scholar was still a little hesitant, but when he smelled the fragrance of vegetables wafting from the inn, he couldn't help but be a little moved, swallowed his saliva, and entered the inn with Li Yan.

The area of the hall is very large, and there are fifteen or sixteen square tables, but at this time, it is a meal, it is already overcrowded, and the sound of talking and laughing is extremely noisy, Li Bei'er can't help frowning.

Where had she ever seen such a thick-necked and loud-voiced person, spitting and dancing his teeth and claws when he was chatting, and even shirtless, showing off the tattoos on his body.

Xiao Er put the towel on his shoulder and warmly beckoned them in, but the three of them glanced around, didn't see a vacant seat, and didn't twist their steps.

"Xianggong, let's change it." Li Bei'er leaned on Li Yan's ear and said softly.

Without waiting for Li Yan to speak, Xiao Er smiled mysteriously and whispered: "Three guest officers, there is a private room inside." ”

"Lead the way." Li Yan whispered to Li Bei'er: "For more than ten miles nearby, only this one is the cleanest." ”

As Xiao Er walked through the hall and bypassed a two-story building, his eyes suddenly opened up, although there were no pavilions and buildings, and the flowers were full of flowers, but compared to the front hall, it was also elegant.

The four of them came to a closed screen door, Xiao Er knocked on the door knocker, only to hear the sound of footsteps in the courtyard, the screen door slowly opened, and a handsome girl dressed as a maid stood in the courtyard, looked at everyone for a moment, and said to Xiao Er:

"You can get busy." Then he said to Li Yan and others: "Guest, please come with me." ”

Li Yan and Li Bei'er glanced at each other, and walked side by side towards the door, the scholar followed behind the two timidly, and the two eyes looked left and right from time to time, where had he ever seen such an exquisite mansion, and a sense of oppression made his steps a little tight.

Walking through a corridor, Li Yan noticed that something was wrong, the red lanterns hanging on the edge of the corridor seemed to be very familiar, but for a while he couldn't remember where he had seen them, both familiar and unfamiliar.

When he saw the name of the private room, Li Yan suddenly realized.

"Fengqi Pavilion."

Isn't this the name of the hall in Cuiyun Building in Yanggu County, looking at the decoration, it is somewhat similar to the Qinglou, is this also the contact point of Liangshan?

With doubts in his heart, he sat quietly at the round table.

The maid said, "Three guest officers, what kind of meals do you eat?" ”

On this occasion, the scholar naturally didn't dare to speak, Li Bei'er took care of himself and observed the surrounding environment, Li Yan said politely:

"It's the first time we've come here, and we don't know what good food to eat, so let's pick up the best dishes in your store, serve seven or eight things, and then blanch a pot of good wine."

The little maid answered, closed the door and left.

Li Yan took off the donated cloth, picked up the hand towel on the table and wiped his face, and helped Li Bei'er clean up the stains.

When I saw the real face, I was amazed at the appearance of these two people, one was heroic and handsome, and the other was clever and playful, feminine and gorgeous.

It's just that...... turned out to be a pair of people who are good at Longyang.

The scholar was reluctant to quit, thinking about finishing the meal, so he took his leave and left.

After a while, the sumptuous dishes were placed on the table, Li Yan was a little anxious, he knew whether these dishes would be poisonous, or sweat medicine or something like that, so he simply called out to the maid and said, "Girl, stay here." ”

"What else do you command?"

"Don't be in a hurry to leave, we are small and don't know how to eat high-end dishes, and ask the girl to help introduce it, it's best to eat everything in one bite."

Li Yan squinted, his right hand had already retracted into his cuffs, and he held the handle of the dagger, ready to hold this maid hostage at any time.

Sure enough, the girl's expression was slightly stunned, but she returned to normal in an instant, and said with a smile: "Don't joke, how can there be customers in the world who haven't eaten yet, and the store eats first." ”

"If I let you eat, you will eat, and giving money is the reason." Li Yan stood up, took a step closer to the maid, and made a gesture of please.

The maid's face instantly became ugly, and she looked at the dishes on the table, and then at Li Yan, and struggled in her heart.

She knew that there was medicine in this dish, but she didn't ask what kind of medicine it was.

If it's sweat medicine, it's fine, but if it's poison, then ......

So for a while, I was in place, and I didn't know how to choose.

Li Yan quickly ran over, put the dagger on his neck, and said to the unknown Li Bei'er and the stupid scholar: "Hurry up, black shop!" ”

Before the words fell, I heard hearty laughter from outside the house, and a man's voice said: "Shimei is really old." ”
