Chapter 7 Zhao Tianqi and Cai Qian's first meeting
When Zhao Tianqi and Ah Fu took advantage of the light rainy night to return to the Cyclamen Restaurant, they were stunned by the scene of people's voices. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Zhao Tianqi has never seen so many customers since he worked, and on weekdays, in addition to the residents in this vicinity, he is a regular customer who is accustomed to the taste, and now the fat man brings a large number of people to make a mess on the first floor of the cyclamen restaurant.
Although I haven't entered the door yet, I can still hear the hearty laughter and unpretentious complaining from time to time.
"Lin An, I don't know what you're looking for us to do here, we're tired of eating this cyclamen, if we don't have a new thing, don't say buddy doesn't give you face, we'll leave."
"Yes, Lin An, do you think your tigress is too strict, want to come out and steal fish, let me tell you, this cyclamen can't be found, if you want to find it, pay the bill directly, and go to the drunken fairy building with us to have fun, I heard that the beauties there are all selected from all over the south, one by one, that appearance, that posture, tsk."
"Hey, don't talk nonsense, Mrs. Cai's brother is here, if he hears it, you'll be finished."
"That's it, Lin An, it's okay here, it's better to come with us, drinking a little wine, listening to a little song is also happy, the painting boat of the Drunken Immortal Building, today has an unusual look, first the selection of the leader, and then go to the Drunken Immortal Building to dance and play the guzheng together, listening to the music is also excellent."
The fat man couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when he heard their words, and had to rub his head lightly, and said to them: "Everyone, you are all friends of my Lin An, so I called you here today mainly to give my little brother a cheer. ”
Zhao Tianqi looked carefully, although this fat man called many people out, but some people didn't give him face at all, and even sarcastically mocked him harshly, and the serious ones were all kinds of ruthless, directly shouting at the people around him, and went to the newly opened Drunken Immortal Building to have fun.
Looking at the fat man's smile that kept coping with them, Zhao Tianqi's heart was hot.
He knew that although the fat man was the largest leather manufacturer in the city, his main economic income had always been controlled by his wife, Mrs. Cai.
Speaking of this Mrs. Cai, the fat man was also bitter and tearful, and he didn't know what was going on, so he stole Mrs. Cai's heart, so that Mrs. Cai chased after him, and finally became husband and wife with him in a crowd. Mrs. Cai is the daughter of Cai Jing, the prime minister of the dynasty.
This is okay, Mrs. Cai is not only beautiful, but also slightly proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and her business is also extremely beautiful, but Lin An really can't stand this Mrs. Cai's character, it may be that she inherited her Lao Tzu, who was born a little suspicious, always thinks too much about the people around her, and often worries that the fat man spends all day drinking outside, so he limits his pocket money, and a quarrel that will die or live if it doesn't go well.
The fat man was also ridiculed by the people in the circle in Bianjing City, like a son-in-law who came to the door, borrowing the influence of Cai Jing's father-in-law in the court, and the things he made were not obtained by the fat man, so although the fat man was famous in Bianjing City, but in that rich circle, he could only belong to the middle and slightly upper.
Zhao Tianqi gave Ah Fu a look, asked him to prepare things for storytelling in the back, and went to solve the siege alone.
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to you, because your presence has made the Cyclamen Restaurant flourish, and I am very grateful." Zhao Tianqi walked to Lin An's side, patted him on the back, and saw the fat man sigh of relief, Zhao Tianqi smiled heartily and said to a group of guests who were waiting impatiently.
There was silence in the room, and then, a handsome boy came over, looked at Zhao Tianqi, shook the white paper fan in his hand lightly, and smiled at Zhao Tianqi and said: "Presumably this is the Zhao Gongzi that Brother Lin An has never forgotten. ”
Zhao Tianqi's eyes lit up, Cai Xuan, this is the fourth son of Cai Jing, the prime minister of the current dynasty.
When Cai Jing was in power, he once set off a "Chongning Book Ban" with Shangshu, Zuo Cheng, Zhao Tingzhi and others, which mainly banned and destroyed the works of Su Shi, Huang Tingjian and others.
But Cai and Zhao didn't expect that their son was an admirer of Su and Huang's works, and Cai Qian was even punished for a time, and Zhao's father and son were out of harmony because of this.
Zhao Tianqi still has a good impression of Cai Qian, if it weren't for him, future generations might not be able to see the masterpieces of Su and Huang that have been handed down to this day.
Zhao Tianqi can't evaluate his character, but his cultural attainments are indeed unusual.
Although Cai Sui's character is insignificant, his writing is very different from that of his father Cai Jing.
Zhao Tianqi once turned over Cai Sui's "Poetry of the Western Qing Dynasty" in the past, which emphasized the artistic personality of poetry creation, pointed out that "the family style is divided" and "cover is indispensable", and has some incisive insights on poetry.
Originally, Zhao Tianqi couldn't put down Song Ci during that time, so he couldn't stop it.
Zhao Tianqi arched his hand towards Cai Juan, and said with admiration: "Brother Cai Juan's words are serious, he is just a cloth coat, a bartender in a restaurant, Brother Lin An's deep help is a blessing in Xia, but Brother Cai Qian does not dislike Xia, so hard work on such a rainy night, come to listen to the little stories made up by Zaixia's nonsense, and I am grateful." ”
Cai Qian smiled gently, waved his hand lightly, and said to Lin An: "Brother Lin An, the eighth sister said to me before, you have been very close to this Zhao Gongzi recently, and she specially entrusted me, if there is something, you can go and help one or two." You also know that Eighth Sister's temperament has always been like this, and the person who can get her admiration must be extraordinary. ”
Lin An's old face was red, he knew what Cai Qian was talking about, the room technique that Zhao Tianqi said to him before, what Guanyin sat on the lotus, what old trees and vines all opened his eyes, Lin An was itchy for a while, so he used it on Mrs. Cai's body.
Mrs. Cai was anxious and ashamed, thinking that Lin An was very honest on weekdays, but these days were so tormenting, I was afraid that I would be caught by thieves, so I went to the Fengyue place with them, so I couldn't help but ask Lin An, why has he become so powerful recently.
Lin An couldn't stand Mrs. Cai's interrogation, so he told all about the encounter with Zhao Tianqi, after hearing this, Mrs. Cai's cheeks turned red, and she almost groaned and said: "If you can, you can get along well with your little brother Zhao, if he has a place to get you, don't shirk, just do your best." ”
Lin An was taken aback, his wife usually expressed disdain for his fox friends and dogs, and even ridiculed him with all his might, and when he thought about it, he asked Mrs. Cai, why do you value this Zhao Tianqi so much?
Mrs. Cai lightly drew a circle on Lin An's chest with her fingers, bit her lower lip and whispered, "Because I can't understand him." ”
Lin An smiled, arched his hand at Cai Xuan, and said a little obscenely: "Fourth brother, Brother Zhao is extraordinary, Anzi can't speak, if you describe it, you can only use the word blessed to slightly modify it." ”
When Cai Qian heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Zhao Tianqi a few more times, and saw that Zhao Tianqi was neither humble nor arrogant, polite, although his words were a little exaggerated, but he was not arrogant.
Cai Qian didn't think about it, smiled slightly, and said, "Since this is the case, let's ask Zhao Gongzi to tell us a story." ”
Zhao Tianqi touched his nose, it seemed that Cai Qian didn't take himself seriously, just because of Lin An's face, he was a little curious by chance, so he said a few words to himself.
He couldn't help but sigh a little emotionally, all dynasties and dynasties have been like this, only the powerful have the right to speak, but it doesn't matter, some things have to rely on themselves to fight for that.
Zhao Tianqi nodded slightly, smiled apologetically at the impatient people waiting around, and shouted in the direction of the stairs: "Ah Fu, Taizi, eye-catching." ”
Ah Fu nodded, and brought up a table from behind the stairs, with a white tablecloth, neatly placed at the front of the hall.
Cai Qian nodded, feeling that Zhao Tianqi was generally knowledgeable, and he was not pretentious to the surrounding magnates as a cloth cloth, and he was interested, so he said to the people around him: "Go, you go and check, this person's identity." ”
A middle-aged man with a solemn expression beside Cai Qian nodded lightly and snapped his fingers.
Three seconds later, a man dressed in black appeared behind the middle-aged man, the man said something in his ear, the man in black raised his head and carefully glanced at Zhao Tianqi's appearance, and then bowed his body and walked out of the cyclamen restaurant.
Zhao Tianqi took in this scene, he smiled indifferently, walked up to the stage alone, and said to Ah Fu: "Ah Fu, start." ”
"Okay, I don't know listeners, haven't you heard of the story of a monkey holding a stick, carrying a pig's head and a river king of quicksand to send monks to the west to worship the Buddha and ask for scriptures?"
"I don't know if you have heard of the story that one hundred and five heroes and three women, for the sake of righteousness in the rivers and lakes, were forced by the government to have no choice but to go to Liangshan, and then the story that had to be told?"
"I don't know if you have heard the story of Zhang Fei peeking at the princess taking a bath in the middle of the night, and then Guan Yu kept slapping his head and scolding: "Let you peek at the princess taking a bath, let you peek at the princess taking a bath"? And this Zhuge Liang three qi Zhou Yu, the grass boat borrowed arrows, won the prime minister of Shu, and exchanged blood for loyalty? ”
"I don't know if you have heard of the story of a young man who lost his footing pursued a sick girl in Jiafu, made crazy remarks that "men are made of mud, women are made of water", and finally for the sake of the person he loved, his family was ruined and he was forced to become a monk? ”
"Not only have you not heard of it, but even I haven't heard of it! Why did the eighty-year-old lady die tragically on the street, why did the sow scream in Bianjing City in the middle of the night, if you are new and wondering, please lock the next show and enter Zhao Tianqi's inner world. ”
"Next, please welcome our storyteller of Genesis: Zhao Tianqi Zhao Gongzi, and tell you about the love and hatred in it."
