Chapter Fifty-Seven: The Feast of the Hung Gate
On the fifth day of the ninth month, a wisp of red silk was hung on the top of the green mountain next to the Hundred Emperor City, and I heard that it contained the blessing talisman paper that Liu Lingzhi brought in Zhaoyuan Kingdom.
Tomorrow is Liu Qinghang's birthday, and the people who should enter the city have all reached the Hundred Emperor City.
A spacious alley that is staggered opposite to Feijing Lane is also a famous place in Baidi City, which is dedicated to the residence of the rich and noble, and I heard that it used to be called Tongda Street, but since the Liu family came, it was changed to a stone lane. The ancestors of the Liu family felt that in order to be accessible, they must first work hard, embrace all rivers, and wear water drops and stones. When the kung fu arrives, the path to access will naturally come.
Half a month ago, there was movement in a closed house in the stone lane, this house has no plaque, and even the gate is simple and tight, and ordinary passers-by think it is an abandoned house that no one wants.
I don't want to come a few days ago, many people came, the door was wide open, there was a curiosity about the road, I looked inside, only to find that the ring in the house was new, finely carved, it can be described as a golden house.
After a few more days, I heard that a noble person moved in, and the Liu family personally greeted him.
At this moment, in the main hall of this house, the people who should have gathered are basically all together.
"I just got the news, the people of the ghost Shura have entered the city, and now they are staying in the Jinlin Inn, and the one on the mountain road has not been found, by the way, I heard that the secret guard said that the Tao sect master is also here, but no one can be found in two days."
Su Changqing sat in the lower left seat and explained the situation clearly.
Yuan Huaisheng closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, his fingers unintentionally gently flicked the teacup on the table, and when he heard Su Changqing finish speaking, he opened his eyes.
"Since you are here, then send someone to keep an eye on it, the Chongshan Road should not stir up this troubled water, Liu Qing will not die, and no one in the Liu family will move. With his temperament, he would never do such a deal, instead of having fun in Hundred Emperor City, it was better to find some trouble with other sects. As for the man, let him go. ”
Su Changqing nodded in response, and Yuan Huaisheng turned around to look at Mo Yanxi and said, "I heard that you seem to be busy lately?" ”
When Mo Yanxi heard this, his heart instantly weakened, he blinked, and said with a smile: "It's just some business matters, after all, I did it with my own heart, since I came, it's always good to take a look." ”
Yuan Huaisheng snorted coldly: "I am young, but I am a lot smarter, I hate it most when others use my name, fox and fake tiger, do something that is not eye-catching, if you want to do it, you can just clean it up, and if you can't do it, clean it up yourself." ”
Mo Yanxi's pupils were stunned, and he hurriedly got up and responded.
Before chatting for a while, Yuan Huaisheng was tired, and everyone retreated very interestingly.
Su Changfeng saw that Mo Yanxi's face was not good, so he leaned forward and said, "What are you doing in a daze, I saw that your face was not good just now, it shouldn't be that you did something sorry for your master." ”
Mo Yanxi pretended to lament: "What's the matter, I was thinking about the fact that there is so much wine in this Chunyuan Building just now, but which one can enter the eyes of the second son of Su." ”
Su Changfeng raised his eyebrows, he really thought about it, and said after a while: "There are many types of wine in this Chunyuan Building, which are very different, and I still like them all, but if you really talk about it, it is still only in the Hundred Emperor City, and it is the water of the clear spring in the mountain behind the Hundred Emperor City, the first batch of rice in June, and the aged old rice skin lees......"
Su Changfeng said, his eyes suddenly lit up, he pointed at Mo Yanxi, then pointed at himself, and asked uncertainly: "Listen to what you mean... Do you want to invite me for a drink? ”
Mo Yanxi nodded: "This matter has already been said on the road, yesterday I already went to try the dishes with Nan Ke Mingsang and them, it is really good, just send Su Er Gongzi." ”
Su Changfeng clapped his hands when he heard this, and a pair of bright and beautiful peach blossom demons under the sun were full of smiles: "In this case, I see that there is nothing to do today, why don't you go now?" ”
Su Changqing was overjoyed when he saw Su Changfeng, so anxious, he gloated and smiled: "I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, this banquet has people who pick up guests in the wind, and there are also people who invite you into the urn, I'm afraid that it is Xiang Zhuang dancing sword, which is intended for Pei Gong!" ”
Mo Yanxi smiled: "The eldest prince of Su said that he was laughing, but it was a common meal, since he promised the second prince of Su, then he had to fulfill his promise, and besides, I am not a person with strange thoughts, this banquet is set up, and people naturally have to entertain them thoroughly." ”
Su Changfeng squinted his eyes, and after thinking about it for a long time, he didn't understand what riddle the two of them were talking about, and finally simply listened to his thoughts and stopped thinking about it, after all, Su Changqing didn't stop it, so it didn't mean that something was wrong.
"Okay, okay, I was hungry just now, it's not the best of both worlds, let's go, choose a good place, and have a few drinks." I'm not afraid of Miss Mo's jokes, I still have a lot of research on wine, it's a thousand cups and not drunk, through the past and the present. ”
After speaking, he had already taken the lead in going out, Mo Yanxi and Su Changqing looked at each other and smiled, everything was silent.
The two of them had just entered Chunyuan Building, and Xiangxue had already gone directly to the Lian family house with the silver ticket. After expressing her intentions, Lian Miao couldn't close her mouth happily. happily took the money and stamped it.
Nan Ke and Ming Sang were still waiting in Chunyuan Building, because they were inviting distinguished guests, they specially selected a multi-wing room with the best environment on the second floor, the windows of this place are transparent from north to south, you can look at the vista and see the people coming and going below.
Su Changfeng entered the wing room, and when he saw Nan Ke and Tang Mingsang looking at him with sinister eyes, he felt a sigh in his heart, and a bad premonition came to his heart.
"If you're having a banquet, why are there anyone else?"
Su Changfeng coughed lightly and asked with some dissatisfaction.
Nan Ke hurriedly smiled earnestly: "This lonely man and widow are in the same room, it's not appropriate, and I can't do anything with Mingsang, this ability to taste food is absolutely outstanding, my young lady doesn't understand this, and specially called the two of us to accompany her, so I am not afraid of nothing to say at the table." ”
Su Changfeng blinked, found a seat far away from the two of them and sat down, raised his eyes, and said, "No, this son can be called the first in this regard, and absolutely no one dares to call it the second!" ”
Mo Yanxi saw that the smell of gunpowder on the table was gradually getting stronger, and hurriedly said: "Nan Ke, you go and ask the shopkeeper to change the wine to Shun Xi Brew, serve the food first, and let Su Er Gongzi try to see if it suits his appetite." ”
Nan Ke nodded, made a grimace at Su Changfeng, and then walked out of the wing.
Su Changfeng always felt unsteady in his heart, he glanced around, and when he turned his head, he suddenly saw Tang Mingsang grinning at him.
"Don't look at me like that, I feel panicked."
When Tang Mingsang heard this, his smile became more and more intense, he got up and personally served the tea, and put it in front of Su Changfeng: "Second son Su, you have worked hard all the way, take a sip of tea and moisten your throat." ”
Su Changfeng frowned, picked up the tea, and drank it.
A quarter of an hour later, Su Changfeng held the bowl and looked at the various dishes stacked layer after layer in the bowl, and suddenly felt tasteless.
Nan Ke sandwiched another piece of crystal elbow, put it in Su Changfeng's empty bowl very attentively, and said gently: "Come, Second Prince Su, try their elbow, I tried it yesterday, this elbow sauce is rich, soft and sweet." You absolutely love it. ”
Su Changfeng was dumbfounded, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, couldn't stand it, put the bowl on the table, and asked, "Okay, okay!" If you have something to say, hurry up! It makes me feel bad! ”
Seeing this, Mo Yanxi hurriedly said: "Second son Su is really smart, I have a profitable deal here, I don't know if you can do it?" ”
Su Changfeng sighed in his heart, he finally understood what his brother said when he went out, Xiang Zhuang danced the sword, which meant Pei Gong, this is not sure that it is a Hongmen banquet!
"My family's business is usually managed by my eldest brother, but if I can really make money, I can consider it and give him advice."
After Su Changfeng finished speaking, he poured a sip of Shun Xi Brew with an expressionless face, and couldn't help but sigh again, this wine used to be clear and dry, but now it is like a fire burning in the throat...
"It's just a small business, don't bother Master Su, I heard that although Second Prince Su doesn't run the Su family's business much, he is a natural abacus. There are also several take-and-sell deals. Not to mention the rest, the clothes in this Feiling shop are the best in the world. ”
Su Changfeng listened, a sip of wine was stuck in his throat, and he couldn't go up or down, and he was uncomfortable. Finally able to speak, he quickly asked, "How can you know about this?!" ”
Mo Yanxi blinked his eyes and said innocently: "On the way, I talked to Master Su about a lot of business, and he told me about this." ”
Su Changfeng listened, gritted his teeth, and said that his bottom was all revealed by his good brother.
"It's just some small business, originally just to pass the time, but then it became famous. Miss Mo praised it falsely. ”
When Mo Yanxi heard this, his eyes turned and said: "Second Prince Su also knows that my family is in the incense shop business, which is something that can't be beaten by eight poles, but two days ago, I found a good business in Hundred Emperor City, both of you and I can do it, I look good, and I don't want this fat water to flow into other people's fields in vain, so I called Second Master Su to come out and talk about it." ”
Su Changfeng raised his eyebrows, his heart calmed down, and while adding vegetables, he asked: "Tell me, if you can really do it, of course I am willing, who wouldn't want to make money, but don't think about what you can cheat from me, relationship is relationship, business is business, the two can't be confused." ”
"Yan Xi naturally understands this truth, I don't know if Second Prince Su can know about Zhezhi Pavilion?"
Su Changfeng nodded: "I know, their cloth is famous in the Hundred Emperor City, although it can't be compared with the best, but it is already very good, and the price is cheap." Ordinary dignitaries should like to use this kind of cloth very much. ”
"That's right, their fabrics are affordable, the finished products are good, and if they are slightly modified, they may be able to become Yuanling's unique fabrics. That's what I'm going to talk to Su Er Gongzi about today! ”
