Chapter 122: A Sick Old Drunkard
"You came here to listen to General Zhao." Yan Xin and Fang Ji were in the house at this time, and at this time they poured a glass of wine for Fang Ji.
Fang Ji didn't respond, and drank the wine that Yan Xin poured at this time. also knew that this was the wine that Xu Gang had been drinking.
The wine Xu Gang drank had the fragrance of bamboo leaves, like a bamboo spoon was used to fill the wine. But this wine, Fang Halberd is quite familiar, from the Drunken Immortal Building, it must be the wine of Lounan.
At this time, Fang Ji sat down quietly and looked at Yan Xin: "Then, let's talk to me about the prince." ”
"If I look for you, it can only be the prince's business?" Yan Xin said this with a bit of resentment, but of course she immediately smiled. "But this time, if you're right, it's really the prince's business."
So Hu Yanxin and Fang Ji talked about the crown princess this morning.
"Are you saying that the crown princess knew about this in advance?" To be honest, this incident really surprised Fang Ji quite a bit.
To be honest, Fang Ji felt that he had underestimated this crown princess a little.
In fact, Fang Ji should have thought of it at this time, this medicine king is not an ordinary person. So his three apprentices are definitely not simple.
Even Mo Xiaoman, who seems to be able to arouse people's desire to protect, is not simple.
To tell the truth, according to the letter brought back by Brother Huai'er, it was explained to a person named "Scorpion King". This person is the junior brother of the Medicine King, so even the Ghost Valley is related to the Medicine King......
Thinking of this, Fang Ji had to pay more attention to the crown princess. In particular, he has not forgotten the task given to him by the prince without a "deadline......
"To be honest, I can't understand the relationship between the prince and the princess." Yan Xin seemed to be a little confused when she said this, which was rare in Fang Ji's opinion, after all, Yan Xin was quite a shrewd woman.
"You said that the crown prince and the crown princess did not have a good relationship because of that secret, and the tacit understanding between these two is the best I have ever seen. And they never quarrel on weekdays, and they respect each other like guests. But you said that the relationship was okay, and they made me feel like they were quite strangers to each other......"
Listening to Yan Xin's words, Fang Ji also laughed: "Actually, I think the situation you said, it's just because they are all smart people, quite smart." ”
"Smart people?" Yan Xin was puzzled when she heard Fang Ji say this.
"It's because I'm smart that I know that their relationship is a relationship of mutual support, even if the face and heart don't match, some things have to be done face to face.
In other words, there's nothing wrong with your feelings. They have been like strangers ever since, but they have to maintain the relationship together for the sake of profit. ”
"If you don't like it, why bother?" Yan Xin sighed when she said this.
"The marriage of the royal family is not child's play, you should know this better than me." Fang Ji was relieved at this time.
"I know this, but the problem is that the crown princess was married by the prince himself. After all, the crown princess's background is so low, how can it be a marriage? ”
"Huh? What did you say? Fang Ji's eyes widened at this time, looking at Yan Xin. The crown princess was found by the crown prince?! ”
"It's true. I was still in the palace at that time, and I was the female official of the crown princess. The prince's mother inquired about many women who were suitable for the prince's marriage, but the prince chose the princess, and the prince's mother was angry for half a month. ”
Fang Ji slapped his brain at this time, and he realized that he had thought of something wrong. That's a big thing that underestimates the prince!
Fang Ji was excited at this time, and he held Yan Xin's hand, but then Fang Ji felt that it was inappropriate. It's just that he put down his hand.
For Yan Xin, she was naturally surprised at first, and then she was happy. For her, who is "greedy" Fang Halberd's body, she wants to shout in her heart: There is such a good thing?!
But then Fang Ji let go, and then he knew what Fang Ji had thought of, and he was too excited. Although she was a little disappointed by this, Yan Xin was definitely the most emotionally active woman Fang Ji had ever seen, and at this moment, she immediately grabbed Fang Ji's hand.
"Next time you grab my hand, don't let it go easily." Yan Xin said this, but she smiled, and then let go.
I have to say that Fang Ji feels that Yan Xin has been too good at "sultry" recently, but it's hard to dislike this. Especially knowing that Yan Xin only likes him alone......
Fang Ji restrained himself at this time and didn't let himself want to be crooked. But the atmosphere here is a little awkward and a little ambiguous.
And at this moment, Fang Ji heard footsteps outside. This stumbling drunken man's pace is only that person in Yanxin's house......
"Father-in-law, are you back?" Yan Xin and Xu Gang greeted each other with a smile, and then the next second they couldn't help but scold: "You are even more outrageous today, drinking early in the morning?" ”
At this time, Yan Xin wanted to scold Xu Gang who was drinking early in the morning, so that Xu Gang couldn't help but "beg for mercy" again and again.
Fang Ji saw it in his eyes, and just smiled slightly. The more harmonious this Xu Gang is now, the greater the contrast with the Xu Gang he saw.
In other words, the current Xu Gang also looks like a half-truth.
Especially after entering the house and seeing Fang Ji, the panic that flashed in his eyes was captured by Fang Ji.
In fact, Fang Ji didn't want to embarrass Xu Gang head-on today, but he would just make a bad habit in private.
Moreover, Xu Gang claimed to be a silver abacus, and his words last time made Fang Ji feel that this Xu Gang was quite proud.
That's a character who likes to control people very much, and such a person Fang Halberd has been taught in the previous life. Such people are often very dangerous, and if they are smart, they will be a strong opponent.
At this time, Yan Xin got up, as if she was washing fruits for the two of them to eat. So, this left the halberd and Xu Gang to stay together.
Almost as soon as Yan Xin left, Xu Gang began to talk: "You didn't tell Yan Xin about me, then I want to thank you." ”
"No thanks, Yanxin is my friend, and I can't bear to tell her about it." Fang Ji said plainly, at this time, he handed over a wine glass, and poured a glass of wine for Xu Gang.
This Xu Gang was like a "thief" at this time, took the cup, but immediately finished the cup, and then quickly wiped his mouth, for fear that Yan Xin would find out.
"Are you and Yan Xin just friends?" At this time, Xu Gang also smiled.
These words made Fang Ji a little unconfident. After all, to be honest, a girl like Yan Xin, Fang Ji didn't want to hurt her.
And Yan Xin gave him the feeling that he was most like the girl he saw in his previous life. At least in terms of love, there are relatively few women in this life.
"Then Fang Halberd, we haven't finished this game of chess yet. However, playing chess is playing chess, and try not to hurt the harmony afterwards. You don't want Yan Xin to be in a dilemma because of you and me. ”
Fang Ji laughed at this time: "I think Mr. Xu made a mistake. Fang Ji called Xu Gang "sir", but because Xu Gang was indeed a teacher. And the students taught by Xu Gang should not be ordinary people.
Just like Lin Qiong beside the third prince, he and the masters of the Western Regions who came together were obviously not the same people.
"Am I getting something wrong?" Xu Gang squinted and smiled when he heard this, but his face was a little flushed because of drinking.
"That's right, that's what you call playing chess, but it seems like your wishful thinking." Fang Ji laughed again. "In other words, you put me on your own chessboard and say you didn't finish playing with me. I don't really like this feeling. Or rather, I think Mr. Xu is sick. ”
"Sick ......" Xu Gang was a little angry when he heard these two words, and some of them were because he drank alcohol. But he soon calmed down.
If this angered Fang Ji on such a "little baby", then he was really wrong.
"Don't get me wrong, what I said is sick, it's true. Not laughing at you. Fang Ji shook his head when he said this: "I think someone told you that you need to drink more." ”
At this time, Xu Gang was naturally shocked when he heard this, after all, what Fang Ji said was indeed true......
The man he said this to was the best healer he knew.
And what Fang Ji meant by this time was indeed to say that he had some kind of illness. But Xu Gang felt that there was nothing wrong with his body.
But when he remembered that it was the king of medicine who asked him to drink more, he was a little unconfident. After all, although the medicine king didn't tell him that he had any disease, he was also a little puzzled when he was asked to drink more.
And I have to say that this drink does make him feel more comfortable......
"Do you know what disease I have?"
That's right, Fang Ji does know.
This Xu Gang should be suffering from mental illness. In other words, Xu Gang himself may have a mental illness. And drinking alcohol may be able to suppress his condition.
This point is clear when Fang Ji observed Xu Gang last time, Xu Gang obviously didn't drink much last time, and it looked like something was wrong with the whole person in the back.
Moreover, Fang Ji's sentence just now had an element of temptation, and it turned out that the relationship between Xu Gang and the Medicine King should be good. After all, Fang Ji said that someone had told him about drinking too much, and Xu Gang's face was wrong.
So this person can only be a doctor, as a doctor, how can he not see that Xu Gang has a problem......
"I'll tell you the truth, what about your illness, according to the doctor who told you, drinking should be useful. However, this drinking always hurts the body. My personal suggestion is that Mr. Xu should be able to control the amount. ”
Fang Halberd was obviously bluffing at this time.
Although it is not clear how this Xu Gang has completely cut off alcohol, it is obvious that this Xu Gang will be a terrible enemy when he does not drink. Therefore, Fang Ji next came up with an idea.
"Otherwise, I'll tell Yan Xin that you can drink alcohol all day, but less than what you drink on a regular day. In that case, you should be fine. ”
Xu Gang listened to it at this time, but looked at Fang Ji suspiciously: "Do you really know how to see a doctor?" Then my illness ......"
This Xu Gang was afraid that Yan Xin would hear it at this time, so he lowered his voice, afraid that Yan Xin would come back and hear it.
Of course, Fang Ji's ears were bright, and when Yan Xin came back, he could hear the sound of his footsteps deliberately lowered.
"Then what medicine do I need for this disease?"
"Mr. Xu is a little confused. The doctor I told you didn't prescribe any medicine. Fang Ji laughed faintly at this time. Since he didn't prescribe any medicine for you, it proves that the prescription is not very effective for your disease. ”
At this time, Xu Gang was taught. But only in front of Fang Halberd, he didn't want to put on that posture, so his expression was quite serious.
As for the halberd, there was no expression on his face. But knowing that he could make Xu Gang drunk most of the day by doing this, he was snickering in his heart.
No, although Xu Gang is still very smart after drinking, he is obviously more powerful when he doesn't drink.
And there is one thing about drinking, no matter how good you are: drinking affects your judgment.
Drinking alcohol strengthens courage, largely because the brain sometimes can't turn around after drinking. Xu Gang's situation should be quite rare, so this situation was completely ignored by him.
At this time, he deceived Xu Gang, and Fang Ji poured Xu Gang a glass of wine again. Xu Gang was afraid that Yan Xin would come back at any time, so he started chatting with Fang Ji about some "no problem" topics.
"Your braised pork in Zuixianlou is quite good, since the girl who beat Yanxin brought it to me, I have some thoughts about it."
"Oh? Then if you like it, I'll have someone send it to you. Fang Ji also laughed at this time. I'm not joking, but you have to give Yan Xin some of this meat, don't eat it alone. ”
At this time, the two of them looked at each other and smiled, like the atmosphere was a little stiff a few days ago.
Of course, Fang Ji heard that Xu Gang liked braised pork, so he had to arrange it.
There is a saying: "Braised pork is wine, that is, the more you drink, the more you have." ”
Fang Ji muttered in his heart at this time: I can't kill you by drinking. But there was naturally a smile on his face.
At this time, Yan Xin came back and saw the two of them smiling happily, so she also smiled happily. After all, it would be great if Fang Ji and her stepfather could have a good relationship.
Of course, Yan Xin would not have thought that the competition between these two people would kill a lot of people if they started their whole body......
At this time, Fang Ji ate a few Yan Xin's washed fruits and got up to say goodbye: "By the way, Yan Xin, I will definitely arrive tonight, and I will arrive early, after all, I have to prepare in advance." ”
Fang Ji said this sentence at this time, naturally in order to "knock on the mountain and shock the tiger" as Wan'er explained.
"Ready? What to prepare? At this time, Xu Gang naturally looked at the two of them suspiciously.
"Ah, tonight the prince will have a banquet to entertain the two princes, and I am going to be a cook." Without waiting for Yan Xin to explain, Fang Ji took the initiative to say.
Fang Ji's purpose in doing this was naturally quite clear, that is, to tell Xu Gang directly.
"The prince asked you to be a cook tonight?"
Where does Xu Gang know the meaning of this, if Fang Ji is there. Tonight is clearly different.
It is even obvious that Xu Gang's deployment tonight will be disrupted.
Even Xu Gang would think about the prince's intentions. After all, the crown prince has obviously been dissatisfied with his actions recently.
However, although Xu Gang thought a lot in his head, his face seemed to be nothing: "It's not a bad thing to be able to show off your strength in the Prince's Mansion." That halberd, you do a good job. ”
The meaning of these words was only understood by the two of them, and as for Yan Xin on the side, it sounded more like an encouragement from his father-in-law to Fang Halberd.
After all, she didn't know that her stepfather was thinking about knocking down the halberd head-on, and wanted to step on the halberd's face and trample his dignity under his feet.
