"I see." On the second floor of the restaurant, the old man stroked his beard and smiled: "The two of you came to Jiangnan thousands of miles away to find a girl who ran away from home. The few of them were sitting by the window at this time, the window was wide open, and through the window, the distant scenery could be seen at a glance. Pei Guangyi and Zhou Xueke sat next to each other opposite the old man, while Tie Niu was hindered by Fang Cai's fight, so he found another table next to him to drink, and looked here from time to time.

"Exactly." Pei Guangyi toasted a glass of wine and said, "If the seniors know the whereabouts of Miss Qianmo, please inform the juniors." ”

"The old man has lived here for many years, and the neighbors are very familiar with it." The old man said, "If a stranger comes to this realm, I will know in less than three days." But I heard from the two of you, this girl has been here for more than a month and a half, but I haven't heard any news, which is really strange. I wonder if the two-dimensional message is accurate? Did the girl come here? ”

"This..."Zhou Xue Ke heard the old man ask like this, and couldn't help but say: "I can't hide it, I just heard her say when she left that she wanted to come to Jiangnan for a turn." But according to Qianmo's temperament, I really can't be sure if she really came here. ”

"I see." The old man smiled: "Since the two of you said that the girl is naughty by nature. It is unknown if she changes her mind on the way, or if she wants to go around somewhere else temporarily. "I saw that the dishes were almost ready. Then he raised his glass again and said, "In this way, let's put this matter aside for the time being." Let's eat and drink happily, the two of us must have been exhausted after a long journey. Let's take a break today. When you are done with this wine, find a place to rest. I'll go back and help you two inquire, if anyone gets the news of the girl, I will definitely inform you as soon as possible. ”

"That's very good." Pei Guangyi was worried that he didn't know how to find Qianmo, and he hadn't contacted his brother for a while. If this old man can help himself, it is really unwanted, he thought like this, and hurriedly raised his glass and said, "I salute the old man with a glass." ”

"Haha. Xiaoxia, you still call me Old Man Jin. The old man raised his glass and drank it all and said, "I still prefer others to call me Old Man Jin." ”

"Senpai." Zhou Xue Ke heard the old man say this, so he also raised his glass and said: "The younger generation has a doubt, the old man is obviously surnamed Cha, why does that Tie Niu brother Shicai call you the old man Jin?" Hearing Zhou Xueke ask like this, Pei Guangyi couldn't help but be interested, so he raised his glass and said, "Isn't it that the old-timers have other names?" ”

"Haha. I can't talk about the name. When the old man heard the two of them ask, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Just because I walked the rivers and lakes when I was young, I was afraid of dragging down the family and causing trouble, so I didn't dare to use my real name, so I had to use the Yong character in my name to dismantle Jin Yong to make my name. Later, people were old and white, and they had no worries, and they came here to settle down, and they wanted to use their real names, but they couldn't change them back. Now that I've listened to it for a long time, I'm used to it. ”

"I see." Pei Guangyi and Zhou Xue couldn't help but laugh when they heard it. Pei Guangyi raised his glass and said with a smile: "Presumably, the old Jin seniors were also first-class romantic figures when they were young. It's a pity that the younger generation has stayed in Chang'an since he was a child, and he didn't have the opportunity to go with Jin Lao, which is really a big pity. Jin Lao smiled when he heard this: "Haha, I can't talk about diversion, but I have done a few major things, and I do have a few confidants." It's just that the clouds are easy to disperse, and the red face is easy to get old. The pride and ambition of the year have long since gone eastward with the flowing water. At that time, the lovers had already been separated. The story of the princely hegemony will be tired after inviting too much, or it is so comfortable to drink wine and sing and drink like this now! Come! Drink. As he spoke, he drank the wine from his glass. When Pei Guangyi saw that Jin Lao said this, there was clear sadness in his eyes, but he was not easy to say clearly, so he had to accompany him and drank the wine in the cup. Zhou Xueke also sensed that something was wrong, so she didn't dare to say more, so she drank the wine with her, and the happy banquet suddenly stopped, which made people feel very strange.

"Old man." When everyone was silent, Tie Niu on the side suddenly spoke: "Do you think of the old man again?" So many years. ”

"Haha." Feeling a little out of shape, Jin Lao laughed and said, "It's all some old sesame rotten grain." Don't mention it, let's have a drink. ”

The four of them drank directly to the green building on the moon, and the pedestrians on the street gradually thinned out. Pei Guangyi and the iron bull were already drunk, they staggered up and couldn't get up, Zhou Xue was not strong enough to drink, and he was already drunk on the wine table, but Jin Lao walked firmly, and he didn't see a trace of drunkenness. Seeing that he was already drunk, Jin Lao was inconvenient to drink anymore, so he beckoned Xiao Er to settle the bill. The four of them got out of the restaurant, Pei Guangyi carried the drunk Zhou Xueke on his back, and Jin Lao supported the iron bull. Seeing that Pei Erren was stumbling and couldn't take a step, Jin Lao couldn't rest assured, so he beckoned someone to send Tie Niu back, and he followed Pei Erren and sent him straight to the door of the inn. After another greeting, watching the two of them enter the inn, he was relieved and turned around and went alone.

In Chang'an City, Taiji Palace, dormitory.

"Get out!" A shouting was mixed with a strong cough from the inner sanctum. There was a 'pop', but it was a medicine cup that shattered. "I don't want you to build me a palace! You just don't come to see me again! I'll play the pipa and read the book by myself, so I don't need you to pretend to be filial piety! ”

"Father." Li Shimin knelt outside the dormitory and frowned, every time he stepped into here, he would always be greeted by his father's cold words. "In the middle of summer, my father did not want to go to the palace with his sons. Now that my father is old, his health is getting worse, and the Taiji Palace is damp all year round, the sons built a palace for their father, just to find a good place for their father to recuperate. There really is no other meaning. ”

"Good! What a good son for me! The Emperor Taishang roared angrily: "I killed my brother and brother." Are you trying to get rid of me now? Okay, I'll do it, and since you hate me so much, I'll just die outside, and you'll be happy, won't you? All right! I've agreed! ! Don't let me see you again! ”

Hear, 'Kill your own brother and brother.' Li Shimin's brows furrowed suddenly, and suddenly turned into sadness, his fists clenched tightly, but suddenly let go. Still said calmly: "Father rests early, and his son retires." ”

The inner sanctum did not respond.

Li Shimin slowly stood up, turned to leave, and went down the steps. Just as he was about to leave the square, he heard the sound of the pipa in the dormitory.

It was an ensemble, and the sound of the pipa accompanied the other three instruments, sounding like a nest of wild geese, jubilant and jumping. And now only the sound of the pipa remains, like a lonely old goose, unable to find its own chicks, mourning and screaming.
