Chapter 406 Tea Guest
"Shopkeeper, after a long journey, can you borrow two bowls of tea to drink?"
As soon as the man appeared, he saw that those people were just looking at him stunned, smiling unabated, and said again. However, the corner of his eye did not linger in the dilapidated teahouse, and after only a sweep, he looked at Cao Chong.
I don't know what he was thinking, he took out the folding fan from his waist and smiled slightly, hid his red lips under his bright eyes, slowly entered, and sat upright on the bench, with elegant demeanor and a breathtaking charm.
Seeing this, although the reckless men did not come forward to make trouble, they didn't dare to provoke the man for some reason, and hurriedly settled the account, so they ran out of the teahouse in a panic.
Seeing this, Deng Kui hurriedly agreed, but felt that cold sweat had broken out on his back, and hurriedly scooped a bowl of tea in the back kitchen, as if he didn't feel enough, and took some pastries in the back kitchen.
The man took the pastry with satisfaction, twisted his two fingers lightly, and ate the pastry with his mouth hiding behind the fan as if drinking tea, the appearance was really weird, and Deng Kui was stunned for a while. The man took another sip of tea, and although he didn't say that it was good tea, his face looked a lot better.
Cao Chong looked at this person quietly not far away, and saw that he was neatly dressed, white clothes and white shirts, black hair fluttering, and he seemed to be twenty years old, but he had an indescribable sophistication. Although Cao Chong was unable to talk to him, he felt that communicating with this person would definitely not be easy.
But the old eunuch obviously didn't have the strength to see it, and only said that he was a middle-class son, and he looked like a woman. You must know that the more beautiful a man is at this time, the more popular he is, this is the so-called Wei and Jin men's style, the old eunuch only hopes that the king of Wei will not be seduced by this good-looking man, which will lead to some bad rumors.
Deng Kui, Cao Chong and the others just looked at this person quietly not far away, as if this person didn't speak, they were not easy to speak; Or feeling the silence in the teahouse, the man smiled slightly and said, "Shopkeeper, how do you get to Wancheng here?" ”
Deng Kui breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "This little brother is from the north, how can he not know how to go to Wancheng?" ”
The man said unhurriedly: "The north is the mountains, the south is the ocean, the west is the wilderness, the east is the island, the sky is the clouds, the underground is the Lethe River, where is Wancheng?" ”
As soon as the man's words came out, Deng Kui was stunned, what did this inexplicable words mean? There is indeed Huashan Mountain in the north, and isn't it the Han River in the south? Where did this inland island come from?
But Cao Chong's reaction when he heard this was obviously different, anyone who had seen the map knew that this man was talking about the layout of the entire Han Dynasty; Could it be that this man means that he cares about the world, where will he know a small place?
But this also makes too much sense, where would anyone say this to the common people? Do they understand?
But at this moment, the man's eyes flickered, and he actually looked at Cao Chong, his face was full of smiles, and it seemed to be even brighter than just now.
"Seeing that Your Excellency is thinking deeply because of Xiao Ke's words, you must be a person of temperament, I don't know your name?"
Before Cao Chong could reply, Deng Kui was afraid that Cao Chong would be deceived by this person at a young age, so he hurriedly said: "This guest, this person's name is Cao Jie, and he is one of my guests. But I don't know if the guests come to Wancheng to do business or visit relatives? ”
Seeing that the topic was picked up, the man was not ashamed, and his face was still smiling like a spring breeze, as if he would have no other expression than this expression. He looked at Deng Kui silently, his eyes were like fire, and he didn't say anything, but he could see Deng Kui's hair standing on end.
It seems that under these wolf-like eyes, there is nothing to hide from what he thinks and thinks.
"This ...... I'll go and get some tea for the guests later. ”
Deng Kui saw such a situation, where did he dare to stay longer? Although I am a little sorry for Cao Chong, this man is really weird, and even if I look at it more, I will feel furious in my heart. He once wanted to go and look for the tooth door, but no one else did anything, so what did he do to find the tooth door?
Only Cao Chong and the old eunuch were left, and there was a tea guest who only drank a sip of tea. Cao Chong instructed the old eunuch to go to the back kitchen to help clean up, although the old eunuch was not at ease, but he thought to himself what threat was there to a man who was powerless? He left disapprovingly.
"The tea here is bitter, and Your Excellency is still drinking it briskly." Seeing that Cao Chong was the only one left, the tea guest took the initiative to speak.
Cao Chong said: "The tea is bitter but the original taste, if it becomes sweet, it will be nondescript." ”
The two seem to be talking about tea, but they have a deep meaning.
The tea guest shook his head and brushed off the dust on the tea, but he didn't know that the dark tea was dusty: "If the tea is boiled, it is naturally fragrant and refreshing, and only if the tea quality is not good, it is astringent." ”
"Isn't that what it has to do with the people who make tea?"
The tea guest swept away the dust, but it was a chuckle: "The person who makes the tea is not at fault, but he can choose whether to boil clear tea or astringent tea; Now it is astringent tea on the table, which is naturally the fault of the person who makes the tea. ”
Cao Chong didn't answer, and the tea guest said: "Astringent tea is also astringent, if the person who cooks the tea is unbearable, he will definitely abandon it and replace it with new tea." ”
You viewers must be confused, what did the author think of to fill in randomly? Don't be in a hurry, and listen to me one by one.
The tea guest said: "Xiangyang has been hard, but your Cao Chong has been brisk." ”
With such words, it is clear that he has already seen through Cao Chong's identity, although I don't know what tricks he used.
Cao Chong said: "The first king is not benevolent, Chong should have had this life, if it becomes smooth and harmonious, it will be nondescript." ”
The tea guest said: "As long as you want to live well, you can naturally live happily; It's a pity that you are complacent and choose a path that makes you unhappy, but cheapens others. ”
Cao Chong naturally knew that he was mapping Xun Gang, and defended: "I am willing to do this, it has nothing to do with Xun Gang." ”
Instead, the tea guest sneered: "You are his student, he could have chosen the best of both worlds, but now he chooses to let you live so hard, isn't it his fault that the dignified King of Wei is extremely rich?" In order to avoid Cao Chong's disbelief, he added fuel and vinegar and said: "If you do something that makes him dissatisfied, sooner or later he can depose you, the king of Wei, and set up another king of Wei, or...... Fill somebody's shoes! ”
Cao Chong's head lowered slightly: "What can I do about it?" ”
The tea guest smiled wryly, and the red lips behind the fan slowly curled up like a fox demon, making it difficult to turn his eyes: "Your Excellency would like to listen?" ”
Although Cao Chong felt that he was led by the nose, he debunked his difficulties in a few words; Although he adhered to the Confucian principle of respecting teachers and respecting the Tao, he couldn't help but want to see what he did, so he said, "I would like to hear about it." ”
The man put away the folding fan and said seriously: "It's just eight words, go with the flow, thread the needle!" ”
"Go with the flow and thread the needle...... What does this mean? ”
The tea guest said: "Xun Gang's momentum is like a bamboo, with the goal of the northern captive, and he has the responsibility of helping the world!" Your Excellency does not have to curb its development, but should add fuel to the fire and help it, not only will it not be abandoned by Xun Gang, but it will be reused by him, and it is difficult to think of the deposition for a while, this so-called let it be! ”
Cao Chong was silent, and he didn't know whether he was entangled or brewing, and only after a while did he ask: "Then what is threading a needle?" ”
The tea guest said: "I watched the stars at night, although Xun Gang came back from the dead this time, but he only had a lifetime of one age, and he would still return to the west after twelve years; In just 12 years, no matter whether he can dominate the world or not, Your Excellency should gather all available resources, whether it is Xun Gang's side loyal to the Wei State, or people with lofty ideals who come to this civilian class, Your Excellency should accept it, establish your own dead soldiers, and only then will you have the capital to fight with Xun Gang! ”
"So...... Isn't it in the middle of political strife again? ”
Cao Chong shook his head helplessly, when he came to this Nanyang, he didn't want to get close to the political circle, and he wanted to stay away; It's just that the words of the tea guest pulled him back from his fantasy in a matter of minutes.
How can I completely get out of that circle?
The tea guest smiled: "King Wei is intentional, and Xun Hou is ruthless!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Cao Chong was instantly speechless.
That's right, how could Xun Gang let himself go? Just because of the little teacher-student friendship? In Cao Chong's current opinion, Xun Gang has long lost that friendship with him! I am afraid that when the world is unified, or when Xun Gang does not need the title of King Wei, it will be the day of his death.
Cao Chong is still very afraid of death, and he died at the hands of his own people...... No, that's not your own people, it's the enemy!
In order not to let himself die, he had to stand in the political circle again, fighting quietly with Xun Gang, and not let him raise any doubts......
Is this possible?
Cao Chong smiled self-deprecatingly, but looking at the confident eyes of the tea guest, he didn't know how to ignite a glimmer of hope...... That's right, Xun Gang is not invincible, he also surrendered to his father, and if he were himself, he could still do it!
"Later...... You can do things by my side! What is your name? ”
The man stood up, bowed his head slightly and thanked him first, but said softly: "I don't plan to tell King Wei about my name for the time being, so King Wei will call you a tea guest!" ”
"Tea guests? It's a bit interesting......" Cao Chong nodded with satisfaction, his chest was slightly straight, as if he had never stood so straight, "You are the doctor who advises Lonely, and you are left and right with Lonely, do you have any objections?" ”
"King Xie Wei!"
The tea guest knelt on one knee, his head buried in the fan, but the corners of his mouth set off a strange amplitude......
"That's right, that's right, just follow my plan, Cao Chong...... Hehehe, I will obey your wish and let you trample Xun Gang under your feet, while I will trample you under my feet! ”
"Twenty years, I've waited too long, and now it's finally time for me to come out of the mountain! Xun Gang, everything you have done, I will return it to you a thousand times, I will let your wife be separated, people's hearts will be lost, and you will work hard to build a piece of the country and turn it into my bag! ”
