Volume 2 First Entry into Officialdom Chapter 48 The Immortal Drunk Limerick

The sound of Jiang Lan and the others talking woke up Wen Yu'er, who was sleeping soundly, and she rubbed her sleepy eyes and walked out of her cubicle.

"Brother-in-law, who is this sister?"

"Brother-in-law?" Liu Yinan looked at Jiang Lan with wide eyes, "Could it be that you have ......?"

"No...... This little girl is the sister of Miss Xun'er. Jiang Lan explained, speaking of this, his face showed a little sadness, "The young master originally wanted to propose to Miss Xun'er, but later, he ...... Forget it, it's all in the past. ”

Liu Yinan looked at Jiang Lan, who was originally high-spirited, but his face was sad at the moment, and his heart became a little uncomfortable. She didn't dare to continue talking about this topic, and turned to Wen Yu'er. She squatted down and took Wen Yu'er's little hand: "Little girl, what's your name?" ”

"My name is Wen Yu'er." The little girl said in a milky voice.

After all, they are all girls, and Liu Yinan is a little familiar with her personality. In a few words, Liu Yinan got the little girl done.

Wen Yu'er pulled the corner of Liu Yinan's clothes: "Big sister, can you sleep with Yu'er at night?" ”

"Okay!" Liu Yinan pinched Wen Yu'er's little face, "Wait, my sister will tell you the story of the old monster." ”

……

Early the next morning, Jiang Lan first sent a team of soldiers to the Taoist temple over there to pick up the looted weapons and materials, and then accompanied Liu Yinan into the city. Wen Yuer originally wanted to follow, but was stopped by Jiang Lan with the "Analects".

He said to Wen Yu'er with a serious face: "Before my brother-in-law comes back tonight, you must read this book word for word." Otherwise, we won't give you food tomorrow! ”

Seeing Jiang Lan scaring herself like this, Wen Yuer made a grimace at her, and then jumped away.

……

In the city of Xiangyang, the streets of the city are busy.

Although this Xiangyang City is not as prosperous as the capital, it is also a very lively place. Both sides of the street are lined with all kinds of stalls, in addition to some necessities of life, you will occasionally see some Jingxiang specialties.

Liu Yinan strolled through the streets, looking at the street stalls with interest. She took Jiang Lan and walked around. In contrast, Jiang Lan seems particularly steady.

He couldn't help but ask: "It's not the first time you've gone out, how can you see everything so fresh?" ”

Liu Yinan hugged his shoulders and said: "Life is boring enough, in addition to intrigue every day, you eat, drink and wait for death...... What is the point of living if you no longer have fun for yourself? With that, she went on to walk around on her own.

Jiang Lan was speechless by her for a while, and had no choice but to follow quickly.

The two walked around all morning, and Liu Yinan mentioned that he was going to find the immortal drunk.

This immortal was very famous in Xiangyang City, and after only a little inquiry, they learned that there was this kind of wine in the Dengxian Pavilion in the west of the city.

"Dengxian Pavilion?"

"What, you've been there?"

Jiang Lan nodded: "When the master first arrived here, the local county guard was in the Dengxian Pavilion to pick up the wind for the master. ”

"Captain Jiang has such a face, he just came and alarmed the local officials!" Liu Yinan's tone became a little piercing, "Do you know that this county guard of Xiangyang County is the protΓ©gΓ© of Taishi Chen?" ”

"This ...... The master didn't know. ”

Liu Yinan put his hands behind his back, put on an old-fashioned look, and said in a tone of lesson: "You are new to officialdom, but you should pay more attention to these civil officials. Don't be sold by others one day, and stupidly count the money for others! ”

Looking at Liu Yinan's appearance, Jiang Lan couldn't help but laugh a little - her appearance was really funny!

Jiang Lan had been to the Immortal Pavilion of Nadeng, so he led the way.

The two of them came to the gate of the Dengxian Pavilion, and the guy who greeted them recognized Jiang Lan at a glance, and immediately stepped forward to greet them respectfully.

This guy has been working in this Dengxian Pavilion for many years, and he has been sent to him, what kind of dignitaries have you seen? But it was the first time he had encountered someone like Jiang Lan who could be in a high position at such a young age, so he was also very impressed.

Liu Yinan casually picked a private room, and as soon as the two sat down, she said to the guy: "Give us two signature dishes here, and then two altars of immortal drunkenness." ”

"Two altars?" Jiang Lan exclaimed, "Master originally thought you were joking, but I didn't expect you to come for real...... Wait a minute, you try to drink as much as possible, the little master doesn't drink much, but he can't accompany you much! ”

Liu Yinan's eyes widened: "You are such a big man, why can't you even drink wine?" You're still a general! ”

"What does drinking have to do with military generals! Besides, alcohol is forbidden in the army! ”

Seeing that the two were arguing, the guy couldn't interject, so he said, "Let's arrange the little one", and then left quickly.

Not long after the guy was removed, a small servant brought a plate of delicacies. Jiang Lan looked at the table full of dishes and couldn't help but have a headache. He took advantage of the fact that the little ones had left, came to Liu Yinan's side, and whispered to him, "Did you bring the silver out?" The silver taels on the master's body are not much......"

Liu Yinan glanced at him with disgust: "Don't worry, Miss Ben has a treat this time, and I won't let you break the bank!" Rao is such a cheeky person as Jiang Lan, and he was also very embarrassed by her words.

The dishes were ready, but the wine was delayed. Liu Yinan waited a little impatiently, she was about to get up and go out to find the guy, but she saw a middle-aged man wearing a staff coat and holding two jars of wine at the door.

"The younger one has seen two adults."

"Come in."

"Yes," the middle-aged man walked into the room, put the two jars of wine on the table, and saluted the two of them with a respectful face, "Two adults, the younger one is the owner of this Dengxian Pavilion, I wonder if the adults are still satisfied with this dish?" ”

"It's okay," Jiang Lan picked up the shelf and waved his hand at it, "If it's nothing, you can go with your business!" ”

"Yes." The proprietor answered, and then bowed and withdrew.

"Heh, you've been here for a few days, and you haven't learned anything else, but this official is learning very quickly!" Liu Yinan chuckled.

"Okay, don't make fun of the master!" As he spoke, he uncovered a jar of wine.

As soon as the wine jar opened, a burst of wine wafted out of it. As soon as Jiang Lan raised his nose and smelled it, the aroma of wine rushed straight to his heart, and he couldn't help but praise and said, "Good wine!" ”

Liu Yinan also smelled the aroma of wine, and she took the big bowl used for eating in her hand: "Don't talk nonsense, come on, fill it up for Miss Ben!" ”

Jiang Lan shook his head and quipped: "The master has never seen any ladies, but he should be knowledgeable and courteous in his imagination...... You look like this, but you have to fight with that reckless man Xiang Beichuan. He muttered as he filled Liu Yinan's bowl with wine.

Liu Yinan paid all her attention to the wine, and when she saw that the wine was full, she immediately took a big sip. A mouthful of white pulp went down her stomach, and her little face flushed with drink.

"What a strong wine!" She couldn't help but shout, then picked up the handkerchief and wiped her mouth, only then did she remember what Jiang Lan said just now, "What did you just say?" Who is the reckless man? Who's that or what? ”

"It's nothing, forget it if you don't hear it." Jiang Lan said lightly, and at the same time picked up the wine jar and poured it into his bowl. He knew that after drinking this bowl, he would reach the limit!

Suddenly, he only heard a soft sound of "clanging", Jiang Lan looked down, and saw a small round ball made of metal poured out of the wine jar and landed in his bowl.

"What's wrong?" Liu Yinan asked when he heard this.

Jiang Lan didn't answer, he stretched out his fingers and took the ball out of the bowl.

In the middle of the ball, there was obviously a gap. He raised his hand and broke the ball in two along the gap, only to see that it had a ball of paper soaked in oil.

Jiang Lan unfolded the paper ball, and saw a limerick poem written on it:

was originally a guest from Xishan, but now he is a retainer of the Xiao family.

Farewell to the Water Snake Ridge, it is difficult to see the old man again.

The Tomb of the Heroes of the Three Mountains and Five Mountains, the Tomb of the Heroes of the Four Seas and Eight Desolations.

Looking forward to meeting with you tonight, the northern suburbs of Xiangyang.

"Blind Xu? How did he get here? Jiang Lan looked at the note, his brows furrowed tightly. He saw that the poem mentioned the Water Snake Ridge, and there was a unique spring ceremony on the Northwest Green Forest Road. Except for Xu Blind, who is there?

However, why did the blind man Xu chase after him like a ghost? And why do you want to see yourself......

Liu Yinan leaned over, she looked at the limerick on the note, a little confused: "What does this poem mean?" Who is Xu Blind? ”

Jiang Lan saw that this girl's face was already slightly red, and her speech began to be a little unclear. It seems that she is only bold in her mouth, but the amount of alcohol is not very good.

He lifted his hand and snatched the bowl from his hand, and she had only drunk half of the wine in the bowl.

"Alright, you're almost drunk, we should go back!"

"Go back?" This Liu Yinan was a little drunk as soon as she took a sip, she raised her hand, "What are you going back for?" Miss Ben hasn't drunk enough......" but seeing that she hadn't finished her sentence, she fell drunk on the table.

"Is this wine so strong?" Jiang Lan curiously picked up the wine bowl and took a sip.

As soon as he drank it, a warm current flowed from his throat into his abdomen, and he felt like his throat was on fire. But after that burning sensation, there was a faint aroma of wine between the mouths.

He was savoring, but there was another burst of burning that went straight to the back of his head.

Jiang Lan covered his head: "Wine is good wine, it's just too top......"

He put down the wine bowl and glanced at Liu Yinan, shook his head and said, "Hey, it's good that you came out with the master." If he changed his mind, he ......began to eat by himself.

After a while, Jiang Lan had almost eaten, and he shouted outside the door: "Shopkeeper!" Landlord! ”

There was a servant in charge of the waiter outside the door, and when he heard Jiang Lan's shout, he immediately found the owner.

As soon as the middle-aged man entered the room, he saluted Jiang Lan with a smile on his face: "Two adults, you finished eating so quickly?" ”

"Well, this official has something to ask you again."

"My lord, excuse me."

"You, aren't you...... Isn't it Xu who is blind? Jiang Lan narrowed his eyes, but saw that the owner was at a loss.

"This ...... Little one doesn't understand what you mean...... adult."

Jiang Lan knew that he couldn't get any results if he asked directly, so he waved his hand: "Forget it." Let's calculate how much the meal is! ”

When the middle-aged man heard this, he showed a sincere and frightened expression: "The adults are willing to appreciate the small shop, which has made the small shop flourish, and how dare the villain ask the adults for money." ”

Jiang Lan nodded with satisfaction: "In that case, you can pack these meals for the official, as well as these two jars of wine." The brothers in the camp haven't eaten yet......"
