Chapter 0165: Assassination (2)

Since the Liangshan army marched south to Fang La and attacked Hangzhou, Fang La has sent scouts everywhere one after another. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 info Fang Baihua and Fang Jinzhi only took the initiative to ask to join the scout organization, and the leaders of the scouts were the bearded Xiahou Cheng and the black-faced Hong Zai.

Let's say that Zhu Biao and the others left the inn early the next morning and rode south. By noon, everyone was already hungry and thirsty, and they saw a wine banner floating in the air not far away, with the word "come and go to the restaurant" in four big characters.

Zhu Biao and Du Bian Xiang walked side by side, so they said to the two: "Two brothers, I've been on the road for a long time, how about going to have a glass of wine first?" ”

Bian Xiang shouted: "I am almost thirsty for birds in my mouth, this is the best, this is the best." ”

So Zhu Biao and the others came to a restaurant and got off the horse together. As soon as the restaurant saw that business was coming, an old man and a young man immediately came out of it. The young man took hold of the reins of a horse and pulled it to the tie post, and he said as he took it back, "Ladies and gentlemen, pull all the horses here, and tie them all to this post." ”

The old man nodded and brought Zhu Biao and the others into the store, and said, "Guests, what do you want to eat?" ”

Zhu Biao said: "Just come a few side dishes, and give some steamed buns, we have to hurry after eating." ”

The old man hurriedly said, "You always sit first, and come when you are busy." ”

At this time, I only heard Bian Xiang shouting: "It's best to have another pot of wine." ”

Du Yan glared at him when he heard Bian Xiang shouting for wine. Bian Xiang said: "My throat is so thirsty that I am about to smoke, what's wrong with eating a pot of wine to moisten my throat." ”

Zhu Biao said: "It doesn't matter if you eat a pot of wine, as long as you don't eat too much, you will have to hurry later." ”

Zhu Biao and the others occupied two tables and sat down, and the old man was busy serving tea to everyone with a teapot, and said while pouring tea: "Listed as a guest officer, take a sip of tea and rest first, and the wine and food will come in a while." ”

Zhu Biao asked the old man with a smile: "Uncle, the name of your restaurant is good, it is on the side of the road, people come and go, it is called 'come and go restaurant', the meaning is very appropriate." ”

The old man smiled bitterly and sighed and said: "It's just that now the Liangshan army is fighting against Fang La, the army is in chaos, there are many refugees fleeing from the direction of Liangzhejiang, and there are fewer guest officers coming and going, so our small shop is not doing well." ”

Zhu Biao said: "There is always a head in troubled times, and there will always be a day when this battle will be over, and when the battle is over, your business will naturally be good." Zhu Biao thought for a while and suddenly said, "Why don't you post a couplet at the door of your restaurant?" I might even be able to get you some business. ”

When the old man heard this, he said happily: "The guest officer can write a pair?" If you can write a pair for the shop, you will be exempted before the meal today. ”

The Song Dynasty was a dynasty that emphasized literature over military force, and if there was a pair at the door of any shop, the meaning was appropriate, and it seemed that the business owner was a literati and could raise his status; Second, it does have the effect of soliciting business.

Zhu Biao looked at Du Yan and said with a smile: "Brother Du, do you have a good match?" ”

Du Yan smiled slightly: "Try it." After pondering for a moment, he slowly chanted: "Busy for fame and profit, busy and busy-" Du Yan had already thought of the conclusion, but he felt that it was inappropriate, so he fell into contemplation again.

Zhu Biao added: "Bring a pot of wine!" ”

The old man put together the sentences of Zhu Biao and Du Bao: "Busy for fame and profit, busy and busy, take a pot of wine!" After the old man finished chanting, he praised again and again: "Very good, very good!" ”

Du Yan said: "Then I also have a connection: hard work, hard work, and joy in sufferingβ€”β€”"

Zhu Biao continued: "Have a cup of tea!" ”

The old man listened to the next couplet: "Okay, very good, the last word of the upper link is 'come', and the last word of the lower link is 'go', which is exactly the name of the old Han restaurant's 'come and go restaurant', good, very good." ”

Guo Sheng smiled: "Then you keep talking, don't you?" ”

The old man was stunned for a moment, and immediately thought that the other party was asking him about the money for the meal, so he replied with a smile: "Excuse me, excuse me, I invited the old man for this meal today." ”

Zhu Biao said: "Uncle, this is not necessary, the meal money is still paid, you have a small business, we are embarrassed to eat and drink for nothing." ”

When the old man heard this, he smiled awkwardly: "That...... Then thank you for being a guest officer. ”

At this time, all the food and wine had been served, and the old man said that everyone would eat slowly, and then retreated.

Zhu Biao picked up a steamed bun and was about to eat it, but Du Biao suddenly stopped him and said in a low voice: "Let me eat first." After that, Du Yan took the steamed bun in Zhu Biao's hand, took a bite, and after a while, handed the steamed bun he had bitten to Zhu Biao and said, "Be careful." ”

Zhu Biao knew that Du Yan was protecting himself, but he felt that it was too much, but he couldn't say anything, smiled slightly, took the steamed bun, and began to eat.

Zhu Biao and the others had just eaten half of it, when suddenly a little beggar came to the door of the restaurant.

When the old man saw a beggar coming, he hurriedly greeted him. Who wants beggars to come to their store and disturb them?

"Uncle, I haven't eaten or drunk for three days, you can always be merciful, and enjoy a steamed bun to eat."

Although the old man did not want the little beggar to enter the shop, he saw that he was pitiful, so he called the young man who was leading the horse and gave him a steamed bun for the beggar.

The little beggar took the steamed bun, and after thanking him for his kindness, he just ate it, but did not leave. After just two bites, the little beggar asked the old man, "Uncle, do you know how to go to Hangzhou?" ”

As soon as Du Yan heard the word "Hangzhou", he glanced at the little beggar vigilantly, and saw that he was in shape, his clothes were sloppy, he was wearing a broken hat on his head, and his face was dark.

"It's still far from Hangzhou."

The little beggar cried: "I fled from Hangzhou with my parents, but I was separated from my parents, and I want to go back to Hangzhou to seek refuge with my grandmother and grandfather." ”

The old man sighed softly, "Poor child. ”

"Uncle, if you can send me back to Hangzhou, my grandma and grandpa will thank you again, please."

The old man looked powerless, pointed to the road in front of him, and said, "From here all the way to the south, you can ask along the road." ”

At this time, Zhu Biao suddenly got up, walked towards the little beggar, and asked, "Are you going to Hangzhou?" We're just going to Hangzhou, if you'd like to come with us, okay? ”

When Zhu Biao got up, Lu Fang Guo Sheng also got up at the same time, protecting his left and right.

The little beggar looked at Zhu Biao with a pair of eyes, and said after a long time: "Are you really going to Hangzhou?" ”

Zhu Biao nodded affirmatively.

"That'...... Then I'll go with you. ”

Du Yan wanted to stop Zhu Biao from doing this, but it was too late.

This little beggar is none other than Fang La's daughter, Princess Jinzhi (to be continued. )
