Chapter 8: Entry
Pour wine, enter the throat, and dream for several years. Pour the wine, then enter the throat, and talk about the cold of half of the hometown. Pour the wine again, put it into the throat again, and don't care about the hilly chasm. The detention brigade commander is drunk, and there is no smooth sailing in the book, only the road is bumpy, and the rain is bright and clear, Song Qiulai is in the book, and you and I are in the book.
When Xiao Er got a big bowl and drank three bowls in a row, Song Qiu was willing to give up.
It is naturally not easy for the innkeeper to establish a foothold in the capital to open a shop, although it is a small shop, it must be exquisite, and he will be smooth in dealing with people, otherwise he will accidentally cause trouble. Thinking about the store soon opened, came a man dressed in coarse cloth clothes like an apprentice in the martial arts hall and ordered good wine and good food, the innkeeper was afraid that the martial artist would not give money, so he asked him to pay the money first and then serve the food, but the man said that he did not bring silver to send it tomorrow, the two quarreled, the man angrily put down the sentence "wait for me to come back" and left angrily, just when he went out, the innkeeper did not forget to sneer a few words, but he didn't expect that he looked away, less than an hour the man took two generals back, Jin Guo pretending to be a military general is a serious crime, Fang Zhi is his own eyes, hurriedly apologized, fortunately the man raised his hand, otherwise this small shop can still be opened to this day, and later asked someone to inquire only to know that the man is actually the son of General Huiyun, every time I think of this matter, I am deeply afraid, from then on, don't say that the lion opened his mouth to ask for a price, even ordinary people also ask Xiao Er to treat politely, it is strange to say, not to cheat the business but prosperous.
General Huiyun is the third product, and today this son even Qin Wang Shanhuai personally invited, and he can't guess the identity and don't have to guess, but if he can tie up with this, he can be regarded as standing up in the capital, and he spent a lot of money to buy this drunk for eight years a few days ago, which is worth it.
This kind of opportunity is hard to come by, so he stood at the table with a thick face to refill the wine, and saw Song Qiulai dry three bowls in a row, and said with a flattering voice while pouring wine: "Son, I admire and admire." I can drink three bowls of this kind of spirit, and I've never seen it before, but now it's an eye-opener. ”
Song Qiulai smiled kindly, shook the wine jar and felt extremely light, there were less than five bowls of one jar, so there was not much left, and said softly: "I have covered all your eight years here." ”
The innkeeper saw that this boy was not arrogant and gentle, and he was secretly happy in his heart, but thinking that there was not much wine left, he bowed his head and bent down and said respectfully: "This wine shop only accepted three cans some time ago. ”
I regret it in my heart, you must know that this master loves to drink this, no matter how high the price is that day, it is also profitable to change the store for wine, and I can't wait to slap myself hard.
Song Qiulai drank another sip of drunk for eight years, but this time he didn't finish it, and asked with some regret: "You said that this wine was collected a few days ago?" And where did you get this wine?"
After all, there are not many people who love to drink this wine, and those who know how to seal the Fa have never heard of it.
The innkeeper's eyes rolled, and he said after a little recollection: "The man received it when he came to the shop three days ago, and he can't remember his appearance, but I remember his eyes, love to squint, and listen to the accent should not be a person from the capital, I bought this drunk from him for eight years, he didn't sell it at first, and after a while, there were about two bowls of this person who was drunk, and then it was good to say that he spent three hundred taels of silver to collect these three small cans from him, so he also set a rule, saying that this wine is not allowed to be sold on the table, only for those who want to drink, I thought I had to bury it for some years." ”
After just a few words, Song Qiulai was slightly drunk, and this drunkenness reminded him of Donghuancheng's brother, not the people in the capital who squinted at people, sat down, and remembered the ninth brother Jin Jiuhan, so he asked again: "That person came alone?" Did you ever say a surname?"
The innkeeper replied: "I didn't ask for my surname, I came to the small shop, but the carriage outside the door has a lot of origin." "I want to say it again and again, as if I am afraid of something and dare not say anything more.
Song Qiulai saw his spitting appearance, mixed with wine and smiled: "If you have something to say, I still have some connections in the capital." ”
The innkeeper was waiting for this sentence, and if he didn't ask, he would say it with a lot of words, and still said respectfully: "The son should know about the recent big case, and the carriage is in Liu Shengting's mansion." ”
Song Qiulai frowned, thinking to himself why it was Liu Shengting, who couldn't find out the history, all he could find out was that he had opened a casino in Beijing for a few years, and he didn't know anything about the rest, and asked, "You also know about this case?"
The innkeeper gave Song Qiu a full house again, and said, "This case is full of turmoil in the city, who doesn't know?" By chance, a friend of mine gambled with him a few times and almost went bankrupt, so he should have been cheated by someone there. ”
Song Qiulai frowned and asked curiously, "Do a game?" How do you do it?"
The innkeeper smiled when he mentioned the game, and said with a bright face: "Attracting you into the urn are all means of cheating money." ”
Song Qiulai pointed to the stool next to him and said, "Sit down and say." ”
The innkeeper was not hypocritical, thanked him and sat down Kai Kai and said: "It's troublesome to say that the game is nothing more than a trap for people. ”
Song Qiulai's thoughts burst out, if this Deng Qinhe was also made a game, the case became clear in an instant, looked at the wine bowl and pondered, and said softly: "I also want to go to Liu Shengting's to have a look, but unfortunately there is no way." ”
The innkeeper smiled confidently and said, "If you want to go, I have a way." I'm not afraid of your jokes, I used to be a person in a thousand doors, and I was young and ignorant to enter this industry, which is really not easy. He smiled and sighed and said: "Hey, when it comes to old things, I love to be sentimental, son, don't laugh, if you want to go to me to accompany you, you won't be pitted." ”
Song Qiulai looked at the innkeeper again, and then nodded slowly and said, "I don't see what power Liu Shengting has in Beijing, so don't be afraid." ”
The innkeeper's words almost choked Song Qiulai, who had just taken a sip of wine, and heard him whisper: "Isn't Liu Shengting backed by Prime Minister Chen Cheng behind him?"
The prime minister of the Jin Kingdom has one positive and one pair, but there is only one prime minister surnamed Chen, that is, Chen Zhixi, who had just quarreled with him, Song Qiulai coughed a few times and said sharply: "Nonsense, how can the prime minister have dealings with him." ”
The innkeeper said in his heart, how could he forget that this prince had a very good relationship with King Qin, how could he not know the prime minister? But if he didn't finish speaking, he couldn't offend this person, so he had to say: "As soon as the case came out, Prime Minister Chen was very protective of him, and it was rumored that Liu Shengting's backer was Prime Minister Chen." ”
Song Qiulai, with his own understanding of Chen Zhixi, naturally knew that the rumors were false, and he knew that the people did not know, so he realized that he attached too much importance to the discussion between the DPRK and China and ignored the direction of public opinion. The final result of the case is not only to give an explanation to the two factions, but also to give an explanation to the people, the people do not know what is changing the law, only know what the law does not dare to touch, if the law is like a feather, then the Jin Kingdom will be chaotic.
In fact, when Chen Zhixi was paranoid and handled this case with emotion, the contradiction between the two factions was no longer the difference in views, but that the other party was wrong, and he had to fight for three points if he didn't pay attention.
Song Qiulai asked the boss to take the can for another eight years, the boss hurriedly ran to get it, and was about to pour wine for Song Qiulai but was stopped, Song Qiulai took the wine pot and poured wine for the innkeeper.
Song Qiulai said in a low voice: "Actually, what you hear is not necessarily true. ”
The innkeeper could also roughly understand the meaning of Song Qiulai's words, but those that had nothing to do with him, what was related was that this big man was naturally flattered that he could pour him wine, and he was a little more in awe of Song Qiulai in his heart.
West of the city, Liu Shengting's mansion.
In addition to the two gluttonous statues outside the door during the day, the back hall is completely new, the blood of that day has long been dissipated, and the front hall is unique, the paper, ink, pen and inkstone are all complete, and the book is full of vitality.
Jin Jiuhan was holding a volume of "Seeking Attack" and studying, and Liu Shengting sat obliquely and sat with disgust on his face. The two of them didn't deal with each other, but they were the only ones who could talk in the house.
Liu Shengting was still smiling, and wondered: "Now that Junzi Pavilion is a hidden pavilion?"
Jin Jiuhan didn't look up at Liu Shengting, looked at the book written about the attack, lowered his head and said softly: "This time I came to Beijing, the pavilion master also ordered me to find out about this matter, Emperor Jin will not come up with this name for no reason, he can't afford the three words Junzi Pavilion, there must be other intentions behind it, I'm afraid it's not that simple." This gentleman's pavilion reminds me of the gentleman's pavilion recorded in the scroll ten years ago. ”
Liu Shengting was slightly stunned, and then said: "The gentleman's pavilion that was born out of thin air ten years ago and disappeared, and even the old man of the three pavilions didn't know the origin? The only thing recorded in the scroll is the cleaning in the cliff, judging from the situation, the current Junzi Pavilion is not the Song family?"
Jin Jiuhan raised his head and looked at him, shook the book in his hand, and habitually squinted his eyes and said: "You will naturally understand if you turn over the scrolls, even if the Song family has some foundation, it will not be so sharp and directly intervene in the Jin Kingdom's reforms." ”
Liu Shengting was a little displeased, and his voice cooled down and said, "What's the use of the scroll? The cliff master is not in a hurry to think about it. Tell me about seeing your good brother enter the bureau you set up yourself, this is what you call friendship?"
Jin Jiuhan heard others say such a thing, saying that Liu Shengting did not enter the gentleman's cliff when he was described as courteous and extraordinary, is the most famous talent in Jinzhou of Qi State, since he was a child, he has a unique talent for literary Jinshi things, although the majority of martial artists in Qi State are especially admired for reading, Liu Shengting is full of poetry and books, and he is naturally admired by others, just after the coronation ceremony Jinzhou Thorn History, he invited him to enter the house and chant poems with other literati and scholars, the daughter of the Thorn History is also a talented woman, and the two met with poetry, and the age is similar to the love of the love and privately set a life, Thorn Shi cherished Liu Shengting very much, and after knowing it, he strongly agreed with this family business.
But the good times didn't last long, just when he was about to plan the marriage, the protector invited Liu Shengting to write a fu, and the Jinzhou Thorn History had no doubts about Liu Shengting's literary talent, thinking that he would be able to gain fame, which was a great thing for his daughter. Liu Shengting also had this intention, the two hit it off and decided to put the marriage aside for the time being, and then discuss it when Liu Shengting returned, before leaving, the daughter of the assassin made a red and white straight-collar cardigan, and said that adding some red was to let Liu Shengting not forget to miss her, and when he came back, he completely changed the red and white to a red wedding robe, and married in the church, and was reluctant to send him away with love.
During the three-day trip, Liu Shengting was accused of plotting rebellion only a few days after he entered the Protectorate Mansion and wrote the first fu, and he was directly detained in prison, indignant but had nowhere to redress. After being released from prison in two months, he hated to ask the Protector what he meant, but he was beaten up by the housekeeper in the house, and he was disheartened and had to return to Jinzhou. After a three-day journey on horseback for more than half a month, there was no coil on his body, and he could not sell the articles he wrote when he was depressed, and the broken straw shoes he was given in prison were rotten and he could only beg for shoes to wear like a beggar, let alone eat and drink. Begging along the road to rush back, the first time begging was still a little faceless, but then was beaten by a few little beggars before putting down the shelf to beg, along the way can only comfort themselves to return to Jinzhou Everything is fine, there is a family there, and she, so I relied on this breath to support back to Jinzhou.
As soon as he entered the city, he was recognized, and what he could hear was no longer the compliment he used to be, but pointed at him and said that he was a traitor with bad intentions, but he didn't care, and no one was looking at him on the way home for most of the month, and he was used to it. He came up to greet a few acquaintances on the street, but those people walked by in a panic with their heads down, pretending not to know, and even heard an old woman teaching the child not to be a thief like him, so he had to stagger home, and found that there was no one. After sleeping all the way, I got this bad news, and the anger in my heart was also discharged, and my eyes were white.
When I woke up, I dimly saw that the person he was thinking about was lying on the right side of the sleep, his heart was a little warmer, and he wanted to get up, but he was weak and fell asleep again, and when he woke up, he saw that she was still lying on the right side, holding her little hand, which was a little relieved, after all, she was still around, but the little hand that was as warm as jade in the past was as cold as ice at the moment, and saw that the yellow mattress was dyed red, and the body was weak and struggled to get up and probed her nose with two fingers, and the breath was gone for a long time, and when she opened the mattress, she found that she had a knife pierced into her abdomen, and she pulled it out tremblingly, covering her eyes with tears, and laughing madly and sadly, He laughed wildly and hugged his beloved, and this smile was very sad.
There is a blank paper on the pillow, and the show words on the paper read: "In this life, I have no face to accompany Qing Lao, greedy for lying on the side of Qing, Qing don't blame me for parting lightly, and allow me to give birth to red makeup only for Qing." ”
On that day, the white clothes were stained with blood, and the beloved was separated from yin and yang, burning up the collection of books, and laughing at the absurdity of the past.
A year later, the Duke of Qi was found to be plotting rebellion and was beheaded all over the house, and the son of the Duke of Protector was particularly miserable and was executed by Ling Chi.
In the winter of that year, the snow was swept into clouds, and there was a son who was buried in white clothes in the snow, and the red and white straight-collar cardigan was replaced by a blue and white cardigan, and there was a green mark on the jade face, and there was one less girl named Muqing in the world.
Jin Jiuhan was silent for a long time before he whispered a little melancholy: "Can a gentleman enter the gentleman's cliff?"
Liu Shengting put away the coldness on his face, his face was tired, and he leaned on the big chair lazily as he did that day, looked around at the beautiful scenery that no longer existed at night, and muttered several times: "There are gentlemen in the gentleman's cliff." ”
