Chapter 150: Clan relatives also have talents
Liu Tao didn't know that Jian Yong and Zuo Feng had successfully arrived in Luoyang. Zuo Feng took things back to the palace to resume his life, and he had to test it.
Jian Yongke is not qualified to enter the palace, so he can only find a private stable to settle down, and the official camp does not dare to live, and the price is too high. It's not that he can't afford it, but he looks at the price and hurts, and in the end he is used to saving.
According to his identity, it is okay to stay in the post with a waist card, but he has no official documents, and it is a private job. Not to mention the post pass, there is no way to live in the county residence.
At the same time, in order to facilitate contact, you can't find someone who is too cold. In the end, I found a moderately priced 'Hero Building', and the guests here are mainly rangers from all over the world, and it is the headquarters of the Ranger Guild in Luoyang.
This kind of ranger guild, in Jian Yong's opinion, is similar to the swordsman guild in the Spring and Autumn Period.
Having said that, Zuo Feng returned to the palace, but on the way, he secretly hid the gold worth a thousand yuan, and then took the wine to find his superior, that is, the regular servant Bi Lan.
"Coming back?" Bi Lan also had just rested, and looked at Zuo Feng with a little tiredness, and he didn't know if he was pretending.
"The slave has completed her inspection and is now back to her life." Facing Bi Lan, Zuo Feng didn't dare to slack off. Inside the palace, a small yellow door is unknown, and it will disappear when.
The point is, until it disappears for a long, long time, no one cares. In this palace, there are ants under the constant attendants.
"You told Your Majesty that you shouldn't come to me." Bi Lan held it, his tone did not change, but those who are familiar with him will find that he is actually a little dissatisfied.
"The slave maid met a Han clan relative in the Lu Zhi camp...... Zuo Feng knew that he had to get into the subject quickly, otherwise he would be unlucky, "He entrusted the slave maid and sent some local products to honor His Majesty." ”
"Jizhou, but the king of several counties?" Hearing this, Bi Lan was a little interested.
"But after King Jing of the former Han Dynasty...... However, the specialties he gave were extraordinary! Zuo Feng was a little embarrassed to introduce Liu Tao's identity, and then immediately said that things were valuable.
And immediately took out the wine and handed it over.
"Ah, Brew Fairy!" Bi Lan seemed to know it, and took it directly, "It's actually cellared for nearly ten months, good thing!" ”
"Do you know this wine?" Zuo Feng was a little surprised, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief, Bi Lan knew the value of this wine.
"A month ago, a wealthy merchant sent two bottles to Luoyang, and one bottle was dedicated to His Majesty. At that time, His Majesty's evaluation of this wine was not ordinarily high, or it was a little too angry and a little less elegant. Bi Lan played with the bottle.
According to Liu Tao, this wine was brewed by his righteous brother, Zhang Fei of Zhuo County, although there was a lot of brewing, but the cellar time was not long. The longest, that's all. Zuo Feng hurriedly explained, "Liu Tao said that this batch was specially prepared for filial piety to His Majesty. ”
“…… I have a heart...... How many of this batch do you say? "Bi Lan is more concerned about quantity.
"A total of two hundred bottles, that Liu Taoyan, one hundred of which is filial piety to His Majesty. The other hundred bottles are for the honors of the servants. Zuo Feng hurriedly said, with those thousand guan, he has earned enough, this hundred bottles of wine fairy wine, he really dare not be greedy anymore.
Especially when he saw Bi Lan, who seemed to be very concerned about this wine, he naturally didn't dare to be greedy.
"Oh, that's what he said?" Bi Lan is still figuring it out, mainly to deceive Zuo Feng, he doesn't believe that this guy doesn't want any benefits at all, and he can't say that there is more wine.
"This ......" Zuo Feng knew that Bi Lan was cheating, but he was also worried that the other party was serious, and when he was not sure, he simply confessed, "There are indeed only these two hundred bottles of wine, and he felt embarrassed to bother me to send the wine, so he gave some hard-earned money." ”
"Since it's your hard-earned money, take it!" Bi Lan is less interested in money and more interested in wine. Besides, Zuo Feng can offer 200 bottles of wine with interest, but he is also sensible.
"Thank you!" Zuo Feng is grateful, this thousand runs, in the end, can stay.
"You...... Why do you want to thank me? Bi Lan shook her head, then opened a bottle of wine and poured herself a glass. Of course he knew the value of this wine, here in Luoyang, in March, no, it was already May, and it had already been called fifty times.
There are many nobles in Luoyang, and there is a lot of money for nobles, and sometimes it is a matter of fighting for face, even if the wine is not worth the money.
"It's a pity that there is too much wine...... After carefully feeling the taste of this wine, Bi Lan sighed, there are many quantities, so it is not so valuable, fifty times, it should be almost the limit.
It is worth affirming that Your Majesty's side should be very happy, and the taste is much better than that in May.
"The other party only said that it was filial piety?" Bi Lan quickly thought of a question, even if it was the other party who made the wine, it was impossible to give away so many bars for nothing? If you are courteous to others, you will have something to ask for!
"I really didn't say anything about this, I just said that as a clansman, I should serve the court." Zuo Feng hurriedly said.
"How many times has he mentioned his identity as a member of the Han family?" Bi Lan quickly realized a problem.
"I've said it several times." Zuo Feng was also quick to realize this problem.
"Haha, I see...... This kid is a wonderful person, you can tell me about this Liu Tao's situation, and go with me to meet Your Majesty later! Bi Lan laughed, then looked at Zuo Feng and ordered.
In the evening, Bi Lan took Zuo Feng to meet the Han Emperor Liu Hong. Zuo Feng first reported on the inspection results, and had to say a few words for Lu Zhi. didn't dare to say too much, and quickly talked about Liu Tao's matter.
Bi Lan also took the opportunity to offer wine, and the latter took it over and looked at it, mainly to see the date. The date of brewing is engraved in a specially made sake jug, which can be said to be an innovation, and it is also the first time that the concept of 'cellaring' has been proposed.
It is said that some sake breweries are now starting to cellar their own sake. However, excluding Du Kang and a few high-alcohol wines, most of them are directly hidden into vinegar...... No, vinegar doesn't count, it's rancid.
"Your Majesty, I'm here to test the poison ......" Zhang Rang came forward, it is said that Zhao Zhong next to him has a higher status, but he is also more afraid of death.
"Hmm......" Liu Hong nodded, Bi Lan can take it, which means that this wine is fine, but Zhang Rang has to be loyal, and he doesn't mind letting him taste it first.
"Then Liu Tao, is he a member of the Han family?" It takes at least two quarters of an hour to test the poison, so Liu Hong changed the topic.
"It is said that it is after King Jing of Zhongshan......" Zuo Feng did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly explained.
"Let Zong Zheng check." Liu Hong immediately commanded Zhao Zhong.
Zhao Zhong received the order and immediately sent someone to inform Zongzheng and inquire about Liu Tao in Zhuo County. During this period, Liu Hong had to listen to it, this Liu Tao fought all the way from Zhuoxian to Guangzong.
When Zong Zheng reported that there was really such a person in the family tree, Liu Hong had already begun to drink, and when he heard this, he sighed: "Among the clan relatives, there are also talented people." ”
