"This uncle doesn't have to doubt it, seeing that you are coming to Jinguyuan for the first time, you will get used to it when you come again in the future, please come in with me." The maidservant said.

Sun Xiu followed the maid into a room, the veil was lowered, and the maid pointed to a silver-inlaid toilet and said, "Uncle, please." Then he stood on one side.

Sun Xiu has never used such a luxurious toilet, he stepped forward, and passed the toilet on the toilet under the watchful eyes of all the maids inside and outside, and then Sun Xiu got dressed and walked out, but he didn't take a few steps, and several maids came up and picked him up cleanly, Sun Xiu let them wait, thinking: "It's the first time I've come to Jingu Garden, can you enjoy his beauty when the guests come?" ”

Just when Sun Xiu was dreaming of the Spring and Autumn Festival, the maidservants put his clothes in the trash! Then a maidservant brought a brand new set of clothes and dressed Sun Xiu neatly.

Sun Xiu asked incomprehensibly, "Ladies and gentlemen, what does this mean?" ”

"Jinguyuan rules, anyone who has gone to the toilet must change their clothes to get rid of the odor, uncle won't be surprised." The maidservant who brought him said.

"I see, you Jinguyuan are really exquisite, and today can be regarded as an eye-opener."

Then a handmaid brought a new set of clothes, much more gorgeous than the original clothes, and they dressed Sun Xiu neatly, and Sun Xiu returned to the banquet satisfied.

During the banquet, everyone was talking about poetry and lyrics, Sima Lun and Sun Xiu couldn't interject, feeling bored, Sima Lun shouted: "Lord Shi, what delicacies have been prepared for us to taste today?" ”

Shi Chong got up and said, "I forgot, when it's time to eat, the wine and food have already been prepared, and I will let people serve the food immediately." ”

Shi Chong ordered the people to get rid of the original tea, wine and wine vessels, and then clapped his hands three times, and immediately lined up more than thirty servants, each carrying a lacquer box in each hand, and this time each small table sent two dishes, the plates were very small and delicate, made of gold, and there were exquisite carved patterns on them; The plate is small in order to allow the guests to taste a few more dishes, such as today's scene at least forty dishes per person, and more than a dozen maids hold a small wine jar in their left hand, and a wine bottle in their right hand, the wine bottle is made of silver, carved dragon and phoenix, the shape is beautiful, and the wine bottle alone will also make people drink two more glasses.

After the two dishes were finished, Shi Chong pointed to a dish and introduced: "This dish is called nine steamed tortoiseshell, tortoiseshell is a tortoise-like thing produced in the South Seas, the practice is to cook it half-cooked like killing a turtle, and then use Nanyang spices and Tianzhu spices A total of 19 kinds, put it in a pot, steam a small half column of incense time, a total of nine times, the taste of 19 kinds of spices have penetrated into the meat, and finally pour the soup stock, cover it in the plate for a while, and when you open the lid, you will feel fragrant, and the meat is crispy, fragrant but not greasy, please open the lid and taste. ”

Everyone lifted the lid, Sima Lun couldn't wait for a long time, he ate a small piece of meat, and drank the soup to the bottom, sighing that it was delicious in the world.

Sun Xiu felt unsatisfied after eating meat and drinking the soup, so he added the plate twice.

Shi Chong introduced the second dish and said: "This dish is called honey vinegar arctic shrimp, it is a sweet shrimp from the cold region of the Arctic, this kind of shrimp is half a month ago I sent someone to use a fast horse to retrieve from the North Pole, the horse alone ran away five horses, when it came to freeze it in the ice, when it arrived at home just melted, I put it in my underwater ice cellar, took it out last night, this morning has made this dish, because this dish needs to be marinated in sweet and sour for a period of time, so it must be prepared in advance, you can open the lid and taste this dish." ”

Everyone tasted it and was full of praise.

Shi Chong instructed the maid to serve the food, and the successive dishes were all water and land treasures, which were rare in the poor world, and the guests ate with relish.

There are thirty dishes on the dish, and the wine has passed a few rounds, Shi Chong ordered his concubines and beauties to come out to toast, these concubines are naturally different from the maidservants, all of them are born with national color and fragrance, rich and beautiful, and it is difficult to accept it.

When Liu Kun saw this, he didn't want to drink anymore, so he got up and walked outside to wait for Sima Lun.

These concubines took turns to toast, Sun Xiu drank a small amount of wine, but greedy for wine, drank a little confused, after a while Shi Chong ordered Luzhu to come out to toast, when it was Sun Xiu's turn, Sun Xiu took the cup The moment he held the jade hand of the green bead, poured wine into his mouth, Luzhu was very angry, blamed him for his gaffe, Luzhu toasted another glass, Sun Xiu actually forgot where it was, the big coloring dared to touch Luzhu's chest, the green bead wine glass fell to the ground, raised his hand was two slaps, the whole hall heard it, and then Luzhu cried and ran to Shi Chong and said: "He disrespects me." Sun Xiu covered her face and said shamelessly: "It's really a jade palm, it tastes good." ”

Shi Chong hurriedly comforted: "Don't be afraid, beauty, you go upstairs first, I have my own theory." ”

The two maidservants brought the green beads back to Chongqi Tower, and Shi Chong was not easy to attack, after all, the green beads beat him, and it depended on King Zhao's face, so he wanted to calm things down, and said to everyone: "Everyone continue to drink." Then he ordered the food to be served.

Sun Xiu's face was gloomy, and he secretly said in his heart, a good Shi Chong, one of your concubines dares to beat me, if I am in charge of the world, I will kill you first, and then take the green pearl, hum!

Sima Lun's face is even more unsightly, thinking that you Shi Chong doesn't care about teaching your concubine, hitting him is slapping me in the face! This matter can't just be left like that, he was about to go crazy with the strength of the wine, and slapped the table and shouted: "Shi Chong, is this the hospitality of your Jingu Garden?!" This woman is so bold! Shi Chong, what do you say!? ”

Shi Chongdao: "I'm sorry for the prince, my concubine beat people today, Shi is willing to pay a thousand taels of silver as compensation, what do you think?" ”

Sima Lun said: "Shi Chong, I know that you have silver, but today's matter is not a matter of money or money, this Mr. Sun is the right and left hand of this king, if he has a mistake, it will be a big loss to this king." ”

"What about the prince?"

"This king wants to ask Sun Xiu what he means." He asked Sun Xiu again: "Sun Xiu, do you see this matter......"

Sun Xiu bit Sima Lun's ear, Sima Lun nodded, and then said: "Shi Chong, there are two ways to solve this matter now, one is to kill your concubine immediately, are you willing?" ”

Shi Chong said angrily: "Lord Wang, Shi regards Luzhu as his own heart, of course he won't kill her!" ”

"This king also expected that you were reluctant to kill her, so there was only one way left."

"What is it?"

"Sell the green beads to Sun Xiu as a slave and let her serve him every day!"

"Ah, that's even more impossible! How could Shi sell her! ”

Jia Mi has received a lot of favors from Shi Chong on weekdays, and he also persuaded Shi Chong: "Lord Wang, for the sake of Luzhu's youth, give her a way to live." ”’

Not only Jia Mi, but all the literary friends also interceded for Luzhu, but Sima Lun gritted his teeth and insisted that Shi Chong agree to one of the conditions.

In Shi Chong's eyes, Luzhu is his life, he relied on the support of Jiahou, and also slapped the table and said angrily: "Lord Wang, don't force people too much, today Shi Mou is kind to entertain you, I can't imagine that you have bad intentions, it is Sun Xiu who is teasing Luzhu in front, Luzhu beats him is understandable, and he can't complain about others, the two conditions that the prince said, Shi Mou will not agree!" ”

"Shi Chong, you want to rebel!?" Sima Lun shouted.
