Chapter 257: A cold sweat broke out
Cao Peng's wind is light, and Zhang Tai's face is red and his ears are red.
This is naturally clear at a glance. When Zhang Tai was still huddled in the dilapidated city of Luoyang, eating, drinking, and having fun with a group of idlers to pass the time, Cao Peng, who was seven or eight years younger than him, was already sitting at the same table with the great Confucian celebrities and chatting...... How can this make Zhang Taiqing embarrassed?
"Dare to ask, who is the piano player?"
However, Zhang Tai still refused to bow his head, and asked with a stiff neck.
Cao Peng took a sip of apricot blossom wine, and said with a relaxed look: "There is a proverb in Jiangdong: the song is wrong, Zhou Lang Gu, it is Zhou Yu and Zhou Gongjin...... By the way, it seems that Zhou Lang and Ziyu are of the same age, and they are young and handsome, and they are really models for our generation, which makes people yearn for them. β
When the people heard this, they were silent.
Zhou Yu has now become famous, after the capture of Danyang last year, the Ming and Han generals, Wu Hou Sun Ce worshiped Zhou Yu as the central protector, Jiangxia Taishou (false position).
Cao Peng's face showed contempt.
Let's take a look, people also play music, the song is wrong, Zhou Langgu, how famous is it? But people are not only playing music, but also all-rounders. It seems to be about the same age as you, and you are already a Taishou who holds real power and gets 2,000 stones. But what about you?
Zhang Tai was choked and couldn't say a word.
Cao Peng found that Xuan Shuo had a flash of light, and after a while, he regained his calm.
This Xuanshuo is not simple!
In the light of his eyes, there seemed to be memories, more of an unwillingness.
Perhaps sensing the attention of Cao Peng's eyes, Xuan Shuo smiled slightly, raised his glass and invited wine, while Cao Peng returned the favor and drank it all.
"Is there such a person in the world?"
Yue Guan couldn't help but let out a sigh of emotion, and then sighed softly.
Chi Zhong suddenly spoke: "I heard that Gongzi Cao is famous all over the world with 800 words, and his writing is outstanding. Entering the fate of the party, why not give a poem? β
"Huh?"
Chi Zhong smiled, "It's better to take Guan Jushi as the topic, how about it?" β
"Subject to me?"
Yue Guan was stunned for a moment, then smiled.
Her smile was a flash in the eyes of everyone in the pavilion, Zhang Liang and Zhang Tai even showed their true colors, swallowed their saliva, and then applauded in unison.
For Zhang Tai, he needs to save face.
For Zhang Liang, he wants to support his fellow countrymen.
Ke Chi Zhong ...... Cao Peng's eyes closed slightly, and he glanced at Chizhong.
I saw that although Na Chizhong made a look of indifference on the surface, the corner of his eye kept sweeping over Yue Guan's body.
, what are you trying to please the beautiful woman and pull me in?
"Childe, or ......"
Shi A saw Cao Peng's unhappiness in his heart and said in a low voice.
Cao Peng waved his hand, looked at Chi Zhong, and then looked at Yue Guan with a look of anticipation, and suddenly had a trick in his heart...... He stood up and paced around the room.
And Zhang Taiyueguan and the others held their breath and looked at Cao Peng quietly.
The corners of Xuan Shuo's mouth outlined a smile, and he also looked at Cao Peng curiously, waiting for his answer.
One step, two steps, three steps...... When Cao Peng took the seventh step, he suddenly stopped.
"Chrysanthemum in the chrysanthemum dock, chrysanthemum in the chrysanthemum hermitage, chrysanthemum hermitage chrysanthemum. Chrysanthemum immortals planted chrysanthemum branches, and offered chrysanthemums as wine money. β
"It's commensurate, it's just ordinary, it's not a good sentence."
Zhang Tai sneered and commented, his words containing mockery.
"Don't worry, listen to the following." Xuan Shuo said: "I want to come to the eight hundred sons, and there are still good sentences yet, why should you and I be in a hurry?" β
Before the words fell, I only heard Cao Peng sing again.
"When you wake up, you only sit in front of the flowers, and when you are drunk, you need to sleep with flowers. Half drunk and half awake said again, the flowers bloom and fall year after year.
I hope that the old man will die in the wine room, and he will not bow in front of the carriage and horse. The car dust and horses are full of fun for the rich, and the wine cup is rich in flowers.
If you compare the rich with the poor, one on the flat earth and the other in the sky. If you will be poor [***] chariots and horses, you will not be able to drive but you will sleep.
The world laughs at you too crazy, and I laugh at the world for not being able to see through it. I don't see the tomb of Wuling heroes, and there are no flowers and no wine hoeing fields. β
Cao Peng chanted, grabbed the bronze jue, and staggered to the front of the Yue Guan case. I saw him stretch out his hand and grab Yue Guan's pink jade arm, "Chrysanthemum Fairy, I respect you." β
Yue Guan's jade arm is as soft as boneless, and it is smooth and soft to start.
At the beginning, listening to Cao Peng's poems, she just smiled and said nothing.
But later, I couldn't help but feel refreshed, and some couldn't help myself.
The beautiful eyes flowed, and the chrysanthemum fairy held the long bronze jue in her hand, biting her red lips, her pink face was red, and she said softly: "Thank you, Childe." β
Anyway, she's going to drink.
Unexpectedly, he was stopped by Cao Peng...... "Chrysanthemum Fairy, this kind of drinking method is boring."
Why don't you and I intersect our arms and drink together? β
As he spoke, Cao Peng glanced at Chi Zhong.
You ask me to go into the water, and Lao Tzu will tease your sweetheart. He passed his arm through the inside of Yue Guan's arm, and then bent his elbow to place the bronze jue to his lips. The figure leaned slightly, and it was attached to the soft mass on Yue Guan's chest. Yue Guan's powder was red, but from Cao Peng's way of drinking, he handed over a glass of wine, drank it all, and his breathing couldn't help but be short, and the nephrite jade on his chest rose and fell, rubbing Cao Peng's arm.
Chizhong's face turned white.
Cao Peng couldn't help but feel a little happy in his heart, and took Yue Guan's arm around the banquet.
"The spring in Luoyang City is good, but I see that the young man's spring shirt is thin.
Cherish the owner's heart, and the wine is affectionate. You must worry about the short spring leakage, and don't complain that the gold cup is full. When you meet wine and hehe, how much can life be...... Happy, happy! β
But seeing Yue Guan's eyes like silk, he almost stuck to Cao Peng.
Chi Zhong's face turned even paler, and after a moment, he lowered his head and said no more.
"Today, I am said to be at the same table with all the gentlemen, Cao Peng's luck...... However, he said that he would go to Luhun, so he still needed to return early.
Gentlemen, if there is fate, you and I will meet again. At that time, I would like to hear the Dharma of the Master, listen to the wonderful music of the fairy, and of course, the fairy music of Ziyu. β
Cao Peng drank three lords in a row, said goodbye and left.
Shi A hurriedly got up and followed behind Cao Peng.
Everyone couldn't help but be moved by Cao Peng's heroism and left their seats one after another. Even if Chi Zhong is dissatisfied, he can only force a happy face at this time.
"This son will become a great thing!"
Xuan Shuo heard Cao Peng's hearty laughter gradually disappearing, and couldn't help but let out a sigh of emotion.
Glancing at Yue Guan, who had a youthful face, he suddenly sneered in his heart, and he returned to the previous appearance of the old god......ββββββββββββββββββββββββββ Cao Peng laughed and left, boarding the car, still couldn't help but snicker.
I don't know, can Tang Bohu still pretend to be forced in the future? Today, a chrysanthemum song can be regarded as the achievement of the chrysanthemum fairy Chrysanthemum Pass.
As everyone knows, in later generations, chrysanthemums contain deep meaning.
At that time, how will people judge this chrysanthemum fairy?
The more he thought about it, the more funny Cao Peng became, and he couldn't stop laughing in the car. Outside the car, Xia Houlan and the two Feixuan Guards had a blank look on their faces. They couldn't figure out what Cao Peng was laughing at in the car? Could it be that something ridiculous happened at the White Horse Temple? However, as a general, the affairs of the master's family will not be asked, so they can only hide it in their hearts.
Out of the White Horse Temple, walk slowly along the official road.
The water is rushing, all the way to the east.
At night, the Beibi Mountains are majestic, like a huge barrier.
Cao Peng stopped laughing, took a deep breath, and leaned against the wall of the car, a little groggy.
Drunk in a hurry!
In the end, the third lord was in the abdomen, and he was a little anxious!
Patronizing the dress is forced, and I don't want to ...... The wine of the Eastern Han Dynasty, although it has not been distilled, has a long entrance, but the stamina is not small.
The wind blew, making Cao Peng feel the strength of the wine surging.
"Park, park!"
Cao Peng jumped out of the carriage, leaned on to a willow tree, and vomited.
What a shame!
But fortunately, I was not in the White Horse Temple, and I vomited wine in front of everyone, otherwise it would be even more embarrassing.
"Ziyou, after you go back, don't talk nonsense."
Xia Houlan couldn't help laughing, nodded again and again, and said, "Don't worry, childe, I know the severity." β
Cao Peng relieved himself, stood by the river, and made a chest expansion movement. He looked up and greedily took a deep breath of the scented air of flowers. In the Hereafter, such a refreshing air will not be smelled. He scratched his head, let out a sigh of relief, and turned to get on board.
At this moment, I suddenly saw a cart coming from the side of the road.
There was a man sitting in the car, and two people were pushing in the back. I think it's a local farmer coming home...... Cao Peng didn't care, how did he know that when the cart arrived at the river, the person pushing the cart suddenly stopped and jerked the cart suddenly. The man sitting in the car fell into the river as soon as he was headed. Hearing a plop, the two men in the cart turned the head of the cart and prepared to leave. Cao Peng shuddered, and a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, murder! He hurriedly shouted, "Wu Na thief, leave away!" β
Originally, the person pushing the cart didn't see Cao Peng, so he didn't pay attention.
Cao Peng's shouts were heard, and the two men pushing the cart dropped the cart and ran away.
"Ziyou, catch them!"
Xia Houlan hurriedly rode his horse to chase after him, but he didn't expect that as soon as the two men saw Xia Houlan chasing on horseback, they immediately plunged into a dense forest.
Cao Peng took Fei Wei and ran to the river.
"Save people, save people!"
These two Feiwei are both from Danyang.
Therefore, it is not bad to have the surname Shui. Hearing Cao Peng's shout, the two immediately jumped into the river, while Cao Peng stood on the bank, his head feeling dizzy.
When this kind of thing happened, I was really scared out of a cold sweat.
The little bit of wine disappeared immediately, and he patted his forehead lightly, turned and walked over to the cart to take a closer look.
It's a very ordinary cart with no markings.
Xiahou Lan came back with a look of shame, "Childe, let those two thieves escape." β
"Ran away?"
"Well, they seem to be familiar with the terrain, and they burrow into the woods, turn around, and disappear. I have a horse, but I ......."
"Alright, I got it!"
Cao Peng also calmed down a lot at this time, stood up, and was silent.
"Ziyou, you go to the official office immediately and ask the fourth brother to bring someone over."
"Whoa!"
Xia Houlan surrendered his hand, pulled the saddle and recognized the stirrups, and whipped away. Cao Peng continued to stay by the river and observe the surrounding terrain. Not far away is the Beibi Mountain, the water goes around the Beibi Mountain, and there are many villages nearby. Xiahoulan said that the terrain of those two people was very familiar, that is, they were locals. Cao Peng patted his forehead, and was thinking about it, when he suddenly heard the sound of water coming from the river, and the two Feiyan were panting and landed on the riverbank.
"What about people?"
"Childe, no one ......"
"Huh?"
"We've found the bottom of the river, but we haven't found any body. Except for silt, which is silt. β
"How so?"
When Cao Peng heard this, he was stunned.
He saw with his own eyes that the two men had thrown the person sitting in the car into the river, how could he not find the body? He walked quickly to the river, looked at the water, and after a moment asked, "Could it be that the river is rushing and sweeping people away?" So you didn't find it. β
"No way, the river is not fast.
If it is on a river, this may be the case. But this kind of water can't sweep people away at all...... Li Xian, why don't we go down and have a look? β
A flying eye spoke.
Fei Xian, named Li Xian, nodded, "In this way, let's separate, you go up, big tooth, and I'll go down...... Childe, what do you think? β
"Then I will work hard for you."
Li Xian and Daya rested for a while and jumped into the river again.
Cao Peng stood on the shore, frowning, and waited quietly.
In the distance, there was the sound of people shouting and neighing.
Xiahoulan returned to the northern lieutenant's office and woke up Zhu Zan. When Zhu Zan heard this, he immediately ordered more than a dozen servants, and Xiahou Lan hurried over.
"Youxue, how is the situation?"
Zhu Zan was far away, and he shouted.
Cao Peng turned around and beckoned to Zhu Zan.
"Fourth brother, I'm sorry, I called you over so late."
"What is this, a certain is the northern lieutenant of Luoyang, and this section happens to belong to me. There was a murder, how could I ignore it? Tell me, what's going on? What about the murderer? And what about corpses? β
"The murderer ran away, but according to Ziyou, it should be someone in the vicinity, not too far.
Corpse...... So far, it has not been found. I saw them push people into the river, but for some reason, I sent people down to salvage them, but they found nothing...... By the way, there is also this car, which was left by the murderer, but there is no clue to it. β
Crash!
Big Tooth emerged from the river downstream, "Childe, it's still not." β
"Childe, I haven't found it here."
Cao Peng frowned, and raised his voice: "Big tooth, Li Xian, you guys come up first." β
As he spoke, he turned to Zhu Zan and said, "Still no body was found, I asked Daya and Li to search things first, but nothing was found." Fourth brother, this matter seems to be a bit strange, otherwise you can find a few more people to go down and see if you can find anything? β
Zhu Zan thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's all it takes." β
Then, he smiled and said, "Okay, I'll keep an eye on things here." Looks like you've had a lot of drinks, so let's go back and rest...... I'm going to leave tomorrow. Ziyou, you accompany your son-in-law to go back first. Ah Fu, don't worry, I will continue to order people to salvage. β
Exhaling a strong breath of turbidity, Cao Peng nodded.
"Then please Fourth Brother!"
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββHowever, after returning to the official office, Cao Peng could not sleep.
He lay on the couch, tossing and turning for most of the night, until he was past ugly, and barely closed his eyes. I don't know how long I slept, but I suddenly heard a noisy sound outside the house. Cao Peng opened his eyes, sat up, and walked out of the guest room in his clothes.
I saw that Zhu Zan was talking to Xia Houlan with a tired face.
"Ah Fu, woke you up."
"Fourth brother, how is the situation?"
Zhu Zan smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "I still haven't found anything......"
