267 Drink with Shao

Knocked Mo Liu a few words to let him know the seriousness of the matter, and Wei Shui was not ready to punish him personally. The pen fun www.biquge.info and the pavilion simply drove everyone out, and all the things like ink were left to Mo Da to solve by himself.

Mo Da took over the power to settle the matter, but it felt like a powder keg that could explode at any moment. For a while, it was inevitable that I would feel worried.

The mistake that made Wei Shui so angry was, of course, not a simple penalty and salary that could be passed. It must be a few people, at least to show Wei Shui. Moreover, Mo Da also felt that Rumo had reached the point where it had to be rectified.

Just as Wei Shui said to Mo Liu, 'If it is not Liu Rui who comes today, but someone from the imperial court, can you provoke others and throw them out directly because he is not dressed gorgeously enough and does not wait for others to explain things clearly?' ’

Of course not!

Just when Mo Da was at a loss for what to do about it, Wei Shui had already talked to Liu Rui.

"Liu Rui, today's matter, for my sake, don't be like those ignorant guys. Nothing big happened, otherwise, I wouldn't have spared them! Wei Shui said, poured Liu Rui a cup of tea with his own hands, and said, "You have something to say about me, right?" Let's talk about it. If I could, I'm sure there's nothing I can't promise you! ”

Liu Rui already felt that Wei Shui's way of dealing with this matter was really not good, and it was too harsh. But, after all, he is a victim, and Wei Shui is a well-intentioned person who is trying to help him solve the problem and help himself get angry, if he doesn't know what to do, wouldn't it be against Wei Shui's good intentions? Therefore, Liu Rui didn't say anything, but watched silently on the side, like an outsider who had not experienced this.

And at this time, when he heard Wei Shui's words, it was obvious that Wei Shui wanted to compensate for the fright caused to him by Rumo just now, and wanted to give him some compensation, no matter what he said now, Wei Shui would probably easily agree to him.

For a moment, Liu Rui even had some not-so-good ideas. He even felt that he could take such an opportunity to seek some benefits for himself? But such ideas were quickly discarded by him. Wei Shui can promise such a thing, he must not want to kick his nose in the face. If he made some unreasonable demands on Wei Shui because of this, Wei Shui would of course agree, but he would inevitably have some unpleasant thoughts about himself. If that's the case, it's not very beautiful.

Thinking about it like this, Liu Rui decided that this request, which he would definitely agree, should be left to the main thing he was here today. The affairs of the two Taoist priests, one old and one young, still have to help others do well. Otherwise, after he goes back, he won't be able to explain to the two people who live near him, right?

Thinking like this in his heart, Liu Rui said to Wei Shui: "Second master, in fact, the students came today, not for their own affairs, but for other people's affairs. ”

"Oh? Someone else's thing? Wei Shui thought that he must have come here for the exam, but he didn't expect that he was actually for someone else's business? This made Wei Shui a little surprised. Wei Shui couldn't help but glance at him a few times and asked, "You said it was someone else's business...... You can't be one of your classmates, right? ”

Liu Rui replied: "Second master, this is naturally not!" What the student was talking about was the fact that two people who lived next to the student got rid of the student in the inn. ”

"Oh? Such? Wei Shui said, "Then you can tell me, is there anything you want them to ask you to ask me to help?" ”

Liu Rui replied: "Second master, it's such a thing. The student did not go out today, but he saw two Taoist priests come to the door and talk to the student about the matter. The old Taoist priest's name is Shao Yuanjie, and the little Taoist priest's name is Shao Qinan. When Shao Qinan spoke, he was very polite, but it was the old Taoist priest who was very reasonable when he spoke. They talked a lot to the students, both in and out of the words, and they wanted the students to help them introduce them. They say they just want to see you, and the rest is up to them. Seeing that they were earnest, the students took the liberty to come to the second master, wanting to ask the second master, would you like to give them this face? ”

When Wei Shui listened to the first half, he already knew what Liu Rui wanted to say. After listening to the whole thing patiently, Wei Shuicai smiled at Liu Rui and said, "You, you really believe what others say, you are too easy to fool, right?" ”

"What?" When Liu Rui heard this, he thought that he had been deceived, and hurriedly explained, "Second master, are they liars?" But don't the students look like liars? Obviously they are just ordinary Taoist priests, so there shouldn't be any bad intentions, right? Second master, you said, should they be thinking about ......?"

"Haha, you, you, Liu Rui, you are still too tender in the world!" Wei Shui said, laughing, while pointing at Liu Rui and saying, "Next time you encounter something like this, just ignore whatever they say." Whether they are polite to you or not, the ultimate goal is nothing more than to let you connect them with a line and build a bridge, they want to say a few words to me to achieve their goal! You're just too kind, you know if you've been taken advantage of? ”

Speaking of this, Wei Shui paused and said, "Okay, okay, you don't know if you are being used by others." In that case, as I said just now, this time, no matter what you say, I will promise you. Since you didn't seek personal gain for yourself, but interceded with others, this is not a question of whether to give them face, but something that does not give you face! ”

Liu Rui said: "If the second master feels that this matter makes you embarrassed, then the second master can not worry about the student's face." What the students said to them was not full in the first place. Whether you say yes or no, the decision is yours. You don't have to worry about ......"

"How can I not scruple!" Wei Shui rubbed his forehead and said with a smile, "Since you have found me here, I have to give you a satisfactory answer." Otherwise, it will be difficult for you to do things outside in the future. Got it? I'm your backer, such a small favor, I have to help you round the field, instead of taking the lead to smash your field. ”

After Liu Rui heard this, no matter what, he still felt that he had caused Wei Shui a lot of trouble. The look of guilt on his face was very strong, which made Wei Shui feel very funny all of a sudden.

Finally sent him away, and when Wei Shui walked out of the house, he saw blood all over the yard, and several people who were usually responsible for cleaning the yard were cleaning it up.

"Yo, who's dead?" Wei Shui narrowed his eyes and asked.

Mo Da hurriedly ran over, with a large smell of murderous aura and blood on his body, which made Wei Shui frown, and said to him: "Just stand there and say it, don't get so close to me, panic." ”

"Yes." Mo Da replied and said, "Second Master, the few people who were derelict in their duties today, their subordinates have all punished them just now. Each of them was given forty rods, and he meditated behind closed doors for three days. ”

"This is left behind by the cane?" Although Wei Shui was very angry about today's events, when he saw the blood all over the ground, he was still irrepressible, and he felt sorry for his subordinates, "This is too harsh, right?" ”

Mo Da replied: "Back to the second master, there are indeed many people who do not follow the rules and act recklessly recently, and have made a lot of mistakes. also let his subordinates know that if Rumo is not rectified, I am afraid that it will be useless in the future! Therefore, the subordinates punished everyone for this incident, just to remind everyone of them. When you do things in the future, you must follow the rules, otherwise, the fate of these punished people today will be their fate in the future! ”

"Hmm, that's it......" Wei Shui put his hands behind his back, twisted his fingers, and narrowed his eyes. After a while, he sighed and said, "You are the commander of Rumo, you have the final say." Well, that's all. Actually, you did the right thing, Rumo really needs to be tempered well, otherwise, everyone will be like this, and you will have it in the future? Okay, go ahead, clean up the yard, so many blood stains, I look at it and make a fuss in my heart. ”

"Yes, my subordinates understand." Mo Da immediately replied.

It can be said that when Wei Shui saw the bloodstains in that place, he knew that this was Moda's masterpiece. The so-called surprise is only surprise that just now he and Liu Rui were talking about things behind closed doors in the house, and they didn't even notice the sound outside. Mo Da's move is really ruthless! not only punished the subordinates, but also made the subordinates unable to scream at all. I held the pain in my throat and couldn't vent it at all.

Wei Shui shook his head and walked into the room, remembering what Liu Rui had told him again.

Regardless of whether these two people are true or not, anyway, Wei Shui feels that they want to tie up with themselves so much, it is really better to give them this opportunity to tie up with themselves. lest they fail to do it themselves, but throw themselves into the arms of others, and then it will be called a really bad thing!

Moreover, Emperor Jiajing has also said that he will test and test himself, whether they are Taoist priests from Longhu Mountain. If it is, it can be reused naturally. If not, there would be no need for His Majesty the Emperor to personally receive a fake fake.

It's just that whether this person is real or fake, Wei Shui doesn't want to expose him. Because Wei Shui was isolated in the court at this time, now the court officials are busy with other things and have no time to deal with him. But seeing that the exam is approaching, candidates are also flocking to the capital.

If...... No, once something goes wrong during the exam, then those court officials will definitely be the first one who can't let go, and that is Wei Shui!

As the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, Wei Shui feels that he must not put himself in such a dangerous place. Instead, you need to use other people to help you and block a few attacks. And such a suitable candidate is obviously Shao Yuanjie and Shao Qinan's ancestors and grandchildren.

Moreover, when Emperor Jiajing was persuaded to ask Longhu Mountain, didn't he just want to leave a way out for himself? Now, the retreat is coming, and Wei Shui categorically has no reason to push this retreat away!

So, that night, Wei Shui set up a banquet in the restaurant where he was used to through Liu Rui, but he did not invite Shao Qinan to come, but only invited Shao Yuanjie, who was more on the plate than him.

At this time, it reached the ears of Shao Yuanjie and Shao Qinan's ancestors and grandchildren, Shao Yuanjie got what he wanted, of course he felt very happy, but Shao Qinan couldn't be happy!

"Grandpa, what does Wei Shui mean by this? Ask you alone, but don't tell me to follow? That's not going to work! Wei Shui is here, I must follow! ”

"Nonsense!" Shao Yuanjie rebuked him, "What does it mean to be uninvited? You don't need me to remind you, do you? We have a request for Wei Shui now, he doesn't want to see you, and if he doesn't invite you to go, that's his freedom. We must not show the slightest reluctance. Otherwise, once he is unwilling to help us refer, who else can we rely on? By whom? You just stay in the inn honestly and wait for grandpa to come back with good news! ”

"Good news? Hum. Shao Qinan was in a hurry, he couldn't help his little temper, and he snorted coldly at Shao Yuanjie, and said very rudely, "Grandpa, have you figured out the situation?" Now, Wei Shui let you go alone, that is, the weasel gave the chicken a New Year's greeting, and he didn't have any good intentions! He thinks you're old, easy to bully, and easy to fool. I'm bright-eyed, I'm a young man, it's not easy to fool, that's why he let you go alone! If you really left me in the inn, wouldn't that be his wish? ”

Shao Yuanjie wanted to refute several times, but he was so angry by Shao Qinan's words that he couldn't say a word. His fingers trembled slightly, and he pointed at Shao Qinan for a long time before he said a word. He said, "Good! Good! Good! Shao Qinan, your wings have grown stiff, dare not to take me in your eyes, right? Don't forget, along the way, people respect me, not you! Don't let people praise you a few words, call you a few small words and you will be fluttering, and you will feel how great you are! What are you? Well? In Wei Shui's eyes, don't say you're nothing! It's me, it's nothing! If it weren't for asking Liu Rui, a student under Wei Shui, to say some good things to us and persuade Wei Shui, do you think he would still take care of us after the unhappiness of the reward? Wake up! Help us, don't help us, that's just a matter of Wei Shui's words! ”

Shao Qinan was still unconvinced: "What? Grandpa, do you really think that without Wei Shui, we won't be able to do anything, right? Grandpa, you're too old to see the problem clearly. In the huge city of Beijing, in addition to Wei Shui, there are many people who can get close to His Majesty! Haven't we already caught up with the eunuchs of the inner court? They can also help us talk to Your Majesty! ”

"Eunuch?" Shao Yuanjie sneered, "What do you think the eunuchs can help us?" Well? They are looking for nothing but gold and silver! It was I who sprinkled enough money that they would befriend us! If they didn't have that money, do you think they would have ignored us? Not at all! They will abandon us as if they were to do so. Walking down the street, I won't even look at you! ”

"But haven't we already bought them off? They will be willing to say something for us. Shao Qinan still didn't understand the reason, twisted his neck, and argued.

"Qi Nan, you still don't understand." Shao Yuanjie let out a long sigh and said, "You must know that our money has been spent. But Wei Shui hasn't moved at all! Once Wei Shui's price is higher than ours, with his friendship with the eunuchs. Who wants to risk offending him and help us send a message into the palace? ”

"But...... But......" This time Shao Qinan muttered for a long time before he came out with a sentence, "But, can't we still make deals with those civil officials?" They should be very willing to see Wei Shui eat deflated, right? After all, Wei Shui didn't give them any less trouble! ”

"No, it won't!" Shao Yuanjie said, "Speaking of civil officials, they are the least likely to wear a pair of pants with us!" Although their relationship with Wei Shui is indeed not very good, they prefer to believe that Wei Shui is an object that is relatively easy to buy and can bring them certain benefits. It's not like we're alone, and we don't do anything. If you want to make friends with people, I don't know how many times more it will take to talk before someone wants to meet us. But it's just a meeting! There are examples of the Zhengde Dynasty, and there are Wei Shui in front. They will never allow someone like us to come close to Your Majesty with all their hearts! People like us, in their eyes, are useless to the country, and will only bring disaster to the country and the people! ”

When Shao Yuanjie's words came later, he looked a little discouraged.

It is also said that the things he values so much, in the eyes of others, are not only worthless, but have also become things that have brought disaster to the country and the people. In fact, to be reasonable, many things of Taoism are still very in line with scientific principles, even in later generations, they are often taken out by people and read and appreciated as the crystallization of the wisdom of ancient people.

On the contrary, these literati and Confucian scholars who were bent on getting into the party struggle did not want to know these things at all, but regarded them as useless waste, and beat them to death with a stick. Speaking of nurturing? Hmph, apart from guys like Wei Shui, who else can be regarded as all the way with them?

When Shao Qinan heard this, he couldn't help but bow his head and think. Indeed, maybe he imagined it too simply, or maybe he was too jealous of Wei Shui, and instead ignored the most basic things that Shao Yuanjie had just said.

"Think about it." Shao Yuanjie sighed and left such a sentence for Shao Qinan. He left in a hurry and went to the banquet invited by Wei Shui.

I don't know if it's because of the delay in arguing with Shao Qinan, Shao Yuanjie obviously pinched the time and arrived early, thinking that it would not be good for Wei Shui to arrive first. On the contrary, he fell behind Wei Shui. When he came to the door of the restaurant, he happened to see Wei Shui standing at the door waiting for him.

The old man's face turned red, and he hurriedly ran a few steps forward, and smiled at Wei Shui: "Ouch, what's so embarrassing?" In fact, it should have arrived a long time ago, how could I let the second master wait for me outside? ”

"Haha, Dao Chief, what are you talking about?" Wei Shuishui took a step forward, walked with Shao Yuanjie's arm, and said, "In terms of age, you are the elder. In terms of identity, you are a guest. No matter how you calculate this, I should be waiting for you! I'm sorry if I ask you to wait for me! Come on, come in, go in and say, go in and say. Wei has a lot of words, and I want to have a good chat with you! ”

Shao Yuanjie was invited by Wei Shui to a small single room on the second floor of the restaurant, although the room is indeed very small, but after all, there are only two people, and the food on the table is very exquisite, and the wine is also a first-class wine, and it is a famous wine in Shaoxing, which is difficult to drink in the capital.

"Come, Chief, sit, sit down." Wei Shui invited Shao Yuanjie to sit down opposite him, and he also sat down opposite Shao Yuanjie.

After the guest and host sat down, Shao Yuanjie didn't have time to speak, but he was blocked back by Wei Shui's words. Wei Shui picked up the chopsticks, pointed to the delicacies on the table and said, "You only came now, Wei has been here for a long time." These dishes are all made by Wei, looking at the chef's cooking, to ensure authenticity! Don't believe me, try it. ”

Shao Yuanjie opened his mouth to speak, but Wei Shui didn't give him this opportunity. Pointing to one of the dishes, he said to Shao Yuanjie: "Dao Chief, you see, this is a famous dish in Beijing, called Yellow Braised Shark Fin." The meat of this cabbage wing is soft and rotten, apricot yellow and translucent, soft and glutinous, the taste is very mellow and fresh, and the whole wing is juicy. There is only one in Beijing City, there is no other branch, and the Taoist chief will try it. ”

Shao Yuanjie is the first time to come to Beijing, and I don't know what famous dishes there are in Beijing. Listening to Wei Shui's introduction to him, he couldn't refute his face, so he had to nod and pick up the chopsticks, put a chopstick and put it to his mouth, and was surprised to find that it was not empty, but really delicious!

In fact, this dish Wei Shui was eaten once in Beijing in later generations, and then he couldn't forget it. I told the chef about the general appearance, and the chef here actually figured it out by himself. It's really good!

Theoretically, if this dish follows the historical trend, it should not have been passed on until the end of the Qing Dynasty. It is one of the dishes of Tanfu in the capital, and it is a very famous one. After that, it also became a signature dish in Beijing for a time.

Wei Shui not only ordered this dish, but the table was full of dishes, he explained them to Shao Yuanjie one by one, and invited Shao Yuanjie to taste one or two one by one. Shao Yuanjie didn't dare not give him face, the poor old man was in his sixtieth year, and he ate so many greasy things at night, and his stomach was really uncomfortable.

But Wei Shui frequently raised his glass and invited him to drink together. It wasn't until Shao Yuanjie couldn't bear it anymore that he got up and confessed, saying that it was convenient to go to the toilet, that Wei Shui let him go.
