Chapter 67: The Night Banquet
It was a bow-shaped, swarthy piece of iron. The color of the iron is special, like black and gray, and there are unknown quaint patterns on the surface. Su Lian picked it up, felt a little heavy, flipped it over, and carved a text that seemed to be ancient on the side of the bow.
This piece of iron, regardless of the texture, surface pattern, and side lettering, is exactly the same as the iron spoon handed to him by his father in Su Lian's hand, the difference is only the shape. The words engraved on the side don't seem to be the same.
Su Lian suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked, "What is this?" ”
Seeing what was in his hand, Yue was shocked, and then turned gentle, and said with a smile: "This is what my Yue family's ancestors have passed down, what it is and what it is for, we don't know." It's just that my great-grandmother of the Yue family, who is the wife of General Yue Fei, is also a member of the Holy Maiden Sect, so this item is also placed here......"
"There's a word engraved on it, what is it?" Su Lian asked again.
"We also asked a lot of people who are knowledgeable and high, but they don't know. I guess it must be some kind of ancient text......" Yue said in a deep voice.
Su Lian nodded, forcibly suppressed the urge to take out his iron key and compare it, and put it down. Next, Su Lian's mind was all about this iron object, thinking of his father's words before leaving, it seemed that this thing should have some effect, but without the guidance of a wise person, there would be no clue if it was all conjecture.
Su Lian shook his head with a wry smile, and suddenly saw Yue Colorful staring at him. It turned out that she had already finished speaking, and seeing that Su Lian was thinking about things, she didn't bother out loud.
"Oh, is that all? Belch...... I know......" Su Lian laughed dryly twice and said in disguise.
Yue Fan saw that he was pretending to be a little funny, so he said, "Master Su, I don't know what your plans are next?" Is there something you want us to do? ”
Su Lian pondered for a long time, remembering the purpose of his coming out this time, and the situation that he might need to deal with in the future, so he said: "I can't hide it, I came out this time to understand the situation and specific movements of Marshal Mo Tuchi, the envoy of Huaidong Dao. You can also arrange for someone to obtain all the information about this person, including his character, the condition of his children, the number of soldiers, where they are stationed, their generals, the relations between Korea and China, recent developments, and so on. I myself will go to Yangzhou non-stop, and I will meet you in Yangzhou when the time comes......"
"Yes!" Yue Binfen nodded in agreement.
"In addition......" Su Lian continued, "I need to keep abreast of the situation in the world, any court movements, disputes in various places, etc., the more refined and detailed, the better......"
"Yes!" Yue Binfen replied respectfully.
Su Lian thought about it, and for other kinds of news about the rivers and lakes, it was better to investigate at any time, nodded and said, "That's all for the time being......"
"Okay...... Yue Fan nodded in agreement, and said, "Master Su, please ......wait a minute" As he spoke, he walked to the back of the desk, opened the drawer, took out a thing and handed it to Su Lian.
Su Lian opened it and saw that it was a golden diamond-shaped token, with rounded corners and about the size of three fingers, and engraved words on both sides, one side for "saint" and one side for "I".
"This is a token of my Virgen religion. There is only one card, if Su Gongzi meets someone in the Holy Maiden Sect, as long as this card is revealed, they will know who you are. Yue Binfen introduced: "From today onwards, we will also preach the message all over the sect to inform all the people in the sect, Su Gongzi, of your identity......
Su Lian looked at the gold medal over and over again, and suddenly asked, "What if this thing is accidentally lost and used by others?" ”
"Uh......" Yue was stunned, not knowing how to answer, and in a blink of an eye, he saw Su Lian's expression that seemed to be smiling, and he also smiled "poof", and said: "Master Su, I believe that in the near future, it will be difficult for people in my Holy Maiden Sect to know you or not, and it doesn't matter if you take out this token or not......
When the group came out of the chamber, the sunset was already in the west. Although the weather is gloomy today, the sunset is out, and tomorrow should be a good day.
Su Lian remembered Li Bai's banquet in the evening, and it seemed that the time was almost up, so he explained to the three sisters a little and wanted to say goodbye and leave. When Yue Wanwan heard that he was going to a banquet, she jumped out and said that she wanted to go too. Su Lian also felt that only Qin Qu was a little lonely, so he nodded in agreement.
At three o'clock, when this group of people rushed to the Donghai Restaurant, they immediately attracted everyone's attention. Of these five people, one of the men is more handsome than the other, but the two women are both peerless and beautiful.
As soon as Yue Wanwan and Qin Qu appeared at the door of the restaurant, the originally bustling and noisy hall on the first floor immediately fell silent, and even breathing seemed to be stagnant. Whether it is the shopkeeper or the drinkers in the store, they all forget what they are doing in an instant, the wine overflows the table, the food is spilled, and they don't care about themselves. Everyone was dumbfounded, salivating at the corners of their mouths, only the eyeballs were moving with the figure of the second daughter, and they were holding a picture of a living drinker.
Su Lian was a little surprised when he saw this. He didn't expect the appearance of the two women to cause this situation, which shows that these two people rarely appear in public.
The second daughter ignored everyone's reaction and strolled upstairs on her own. When Qiu Chuanli came up, the drinkers in the hall still didn't dare to stir, for fear of disturbing the two fairies.
Qiu Chuanli greeted Su Lian. It's not that he ignores the two stunning existences, it's just that at his age and realm, he has seen more people and more beauties. Not to mention, Shen Ruoyu, as the young lady of the Shen family, has a stunning temperament that does not lose to the two in front of her at all. And Su Lian is different, as a distinguished guest personally instructed and befriended by the second young master of the Shen family, Qiu Chuanli did not dare to slack off in the slightest.
Yue Wanwan and Qin Qu naturally knew that Su Lian was the strange person who broke the problem in the East China Sea Restaurant, but they didn't know that Shen Renxi knew and valued Su Lian, and seeing Qiu Chuanli's respect and courtesy to Su Lian, they only regarded it as the East China Sea Restaurant's pursuit of the strange person who broke the problem, and they didn't go to their hearts. Qiu Chuanli was very knowledgeable and did not say too much in the lobby, but directly led them to the box that had already been booked by Li Bai's room on the fourth floor.
Li Baimuro saw that Yue Wanwan and Qin Qu had come over, and he was really overjoyed, and there was light on his face. He and Jiang Zhihe arrived a little early, and when they saw that everyone had arrived, they were about to call the banquet. Qiu Chuanli said to Su Lian: "Master Su, your friends are next door, do you want to call them over?" ”
"My friend?" Su Lian was a little confused, but he understood in an instant, glanced at Zheng Shou, and said with a smile: "It turns out that the two of them are here again......
He said to Li Baimu: "Brother Li, don't you mind having two more pairs of chopsticks, right?" ”
"Su Gongzi's friend, that's naturally welcome!" Li Baimu said with a smile.
Su Lian nodded to Qiu Chuanli and said, "Then call them over......
Qiu Chuanli smiled and left. After a while, Ma Xiuying's voice came from outside: "Su Lian, you are so hateful, you left the two of us in the inn for a day, and now you still have the face to call the two of us to drink with you, this ......"
Ma Xiuying walked to the door of the box and saw that there were many guests inside, so she suddenly stopped her mouth, swallowed her saliva fiercely, and glared at Su Lian. Qiu Chuanli followed behind, with a wry smile on his face: This aunt didn't let people finish talking at all, and rushed over in a hurry......
Su Lian laughed dryly, touched his nose in embarrassment, and was about to introduce, Ma Xiuying had already hugged his fist arrogantly, and said first: "Hello everyone, in Ma Ying, it's a pleasure to meet you......" and pointed to Guo Zheng, who was like a stuffy gourd in the back, and introduced: "This is our good brother Guo Zheng......"
Guo Zheng could only shake his head and smile bitterly and salute everyone.
Su Lian saw that she was dressed as a man again, and she was a hero, so she couldn't help but roll her eyes, spread her hands, sighed and said casually: "Since you're here, just sit casually......"
When Yue Wanwan saw Ma Xiuying's behavior, she smiled "poof" and said, "This ...... Ma Gongzi, it's so interesting......" She took the initiative to walk over and introduced herself to Ma Xiuying: "Hello Ma Gongzi, my name is Yue Wanwan, and I'm very happy to meet you!" ”
Although she is also a woman, and Ma Xiuying also has a beautiful face, she has always been hearty and rough, and she has no consciousness of being a stunning beauty. However, when she saw Yue Wanwan at this time, she couldn't help but be stunned, secretly thinking that a woman could be so beautiful, and said in amazement: "This sister is really beautiful......
Su Lian rolled his eyes again, and called someone sister as soon as he came up? But after thinking about it, he really didn't know how old the Yue sisters were. If it is said that there are only about twenty, then their bearing, mind, and spicy are also amazing.
Yue Wanwan listened to Ma Xiuying's praise, smiled charmingly, and said: "You are also beautiful, come, let's sit together......" After that, she pulled Ma Xiuying to sit on the left position.
In the box is a large round table, and this table is hosted by Li Baimu, so he naturally sits in the host's seat. It is Su Lian who is invited, he should sit first on the left, and then on the status of identity, Yue Wanwan should sit first on the right. The second place on the left is Jiang Zhihe, the second place on the right is Qin Qu, and then it is Ma Xiuying and others' turn.
Now Yue Wanwan took the initiative to pull Ma Xiuying to sit in the first two positions on the left, so the first one and two places on the right became Su Lian Qin Qu. In this way, although Yue Wanwan occupies Su Lian's position, she is a woman, and her status is not low, and doing so just allows Ma Xiuying to have no psychological gap, and also avoids her harassment of Su Lian, and at the same time allows Qin Qu to sit next to Su Lian, so that she can serve nearby.
As soon as Ma Xiuying appeared, looking at Su Lian's eyes and his attitude towards Ma Xiuying, Yue Wanwan only captured the subtle relationship between the two in an instant, and pulled Ma Xiuying over, which not only relieved Su Lian's troubles, but also made Qin Qu feel at ease to do his duty. Yue Wanwan only made a gesture in a fraction of a moment, resolved the embarrassment, did not leak, and her mind was extremely thorough.
