Chapter 20 Be Candid
Early the next morning, Xiang Chonghua and Qin Fei followed Han Wen to the dock by car. The Han family's industries are all over the world, and there are naturally private ships in Shangmu. Although Xiang Chonghua was somewhat restrained, he still asked Han Wen from time to time, and he was the first to rush to the deck.
Qin Fei said embarrassedly: "My brother is like this, young master, please don't be surprised." ”
Han Wen smiled and said to Qin Fei, "It's more comfortable for you to call me Han Wen." Northerners are always curious when they get to the south, and the first time I took a boat ride that year, I was chattering and noisy, and I fell into the water. ”
Qin Fei said: "Master Hou is worthy of being a leader in business. Other rich people are eager to hide their children in their golden nests, but he is willing to take his beloved son out to hone his knowledge since he was a child, no wonder you have such a heart. ”
Han Wen said a little embarrassed: "Actually, I came to Nandi with my mother back then. ”
Qin Fei didn't expect to pat the horse's leg on the horse's leg, his eyes rolled and he smiled: "It is naturally difficult for those who have achieved great things to be comprehensive, and Ling Zun Youlingtang, a virtuous helper, will naturally be able to focus on business." The one who can cultivate a talent like Brother Han must be an extraordinary strange woman. I'll definitely pay a visit when I have time. ”
Han Wen said embarrassedly: "It's easy to say, thirty miles east of here is the grave of her old man." ”
Qin Fei couldn't wait to jump into the water.
Han Wen's eyes showed remembrance, and he smiled bitterly: "My mother died suddenly when I was four years old. I often come to the south, either to visit my grandfather, who runs a salt fishing business in Chen, and to accompany her. My dad was really amazing, but he was also very busy because of it. The only discipline he had for me was to hire a bunch of gentlemen. When I was a child, it was even more difficult to see him than it was to visit my mother's grave in Chen Guo. I longed for him to care for me like a loving father and to remember my mother like an amorous husband. He hoped that I would devote myself to making friends with the powerful and honoring my ancestors. As a result, we became more and more disillusioned with each other. Although he no longer has to travel around all these years, our father and son have become more and more alienated. ”
Qin Fei didn't expect that the gentle young master in front of him would be at heart to heart with his first acquaintance, and he didn't expect that the darling of the rich world in the eyes of countless people would have such helpless troubles, and he was stunned for a while.
Han Wen smiled at him instead, and said, "I don't know why, when I saw you, I had an inexplicable sense of intimacy, and I just felt that I had nothing to say about you." Even though I have a half-brother, he just thinks of me as his biggest rival. Everyone else thinks that I am rich and carefree, but how can I compare to you being free and free, and there are so many brothers and friends? I really envy you. ”
Qin Fei sighed secretly in his heart, and saw from a distance a man named Wu Buwei carrying a pot of wine with a big grin, and jumped from the shore in front of Han Wen with a slight jump.
Han Wen couldn't help frowning and said, "Didn't the doctor just tell you not to drink?" Why can't you help it in a few days? You refuse to take medicine and rest peacefully, are you trying to force me to dismiss you? ”
Wu Buwei raised his head and took another sip of wine, smacking his lips and said: "Listen to those doctors, I can live for at most one year if I take medicine and quit drinking, but if I am nagged by them, I will have to live for at least three years." Since I came uninvited, I won't be thrown away. He walked into the cabin.
Han Wen couldn't cry or laugh, so he could only say: "You have always been only willing to be responsible for my safety in Chen Kingdom, how did you think of going to Qi Country this time?" Is it that you don't have enough money to spend on alcohol, and you can't work overtime? ”
Wu Buwei said with a smile: "Who called me a beautiful woman has an appointment, I can only cheapen you kid!" However, I will only be responsible for your safety on board as a reward for the ride. When you get off the boat, you may not be left alone. ”
Han Wen also smiled and said, "Han hasn't been stingy with his friends to this extent. Although the twenty guards around me are not as good as you, they are still a master of one enemy and one hundred. Just look for your beauty. Also, the dozen or so jars of wine on this boat are all yours. ”
Wu Buwei said: "Since we are friends, I can't be so clear with you." You don't want me to take care of it, but I still want to take care of you. He smiled back and slipped into the cabin.
Qin Fei also smiled: "This person is really interesting, you don't let him do anything, but he has to do it against you." I wonder what would happen to him if he wasn't told to eat it. ”
Hearing only the sound of "whoosh", Qin Fei was shocked to find that there was an extra piece of foreign object in his mouth, and he swallowed it involuntarily. Wu Buwei's loud laughter rang out from the cabin, and said, "Don't worry, I'm not bored enough to feed you,." ”
He didn't say that it was okay, Qin Fei only felt a wave of nausea surging from his stomach, and he grabbed the railing and began to vomit. A delicate wine jug swung into his sight with the waves of water, and it was the wine jug that Wu Buwei used. The aroma of wine wafted up in bursts, apparently throwing it into the water without taking a few sips.
Wu Buwei's head poked out of the window of the cabin, looked at Qin Fei and said with a smile: "It's just a cover, it scares you." Tell you that it's not, and you still don't believe it. Do you really want to eat it, so that can be safe? ”
Qin Fei glanced at the wine jug that was drifting farther and farther away, and saw that the lid of the kettle was really gone, and he was so angry in his heart, but he didn't dare to squeak anymore.
Xiang Chonghua jumped down from the second floor of the cabin, pointed at Wu Buwei and said angrily: "If you have a kind of come down to compare with me, what kind of ability is it to bully a weak scholar who doesn't know martial arts?" ”
Wu Buwei smiled slightly and said, "I don't listen to you." But there's really no point in bullying him. When I think of something interesting, I'll come to you first. After saying that, he retracted his head back into the cabin, and with a "snap", he actually closed the window.
Han Wen smiled embarrassedly: "He is like this, but there is no malice, just get used to it." ”
Qin Fei and Xiang Chonghua returned to the room. Different from the simplicity and elegance of Shangmu Xiaoyuan, the cabin is full of rich and noble pride, not only the furniture is sour branch wood and sandalwood, the carvings are not painted with gold or embellished with silver, and even the eyes of birds and beasts are full of pearls and gems.
Qin Fei took a breath and said, "This room full of gold and jade is like bringing the sun in. I wonder how the people in this room can sleep at night. ”
As soon as Xiang Chonghua pulled the curtains, the room was immediately so dark that he couldn't see his fingers. He opened the curtain again and said, "The curtains and tents here are made of kite feather brocade, and no light can leak in." This kite-feather brocade is spun from the feathers of the shadow kite, a specialty of the Wing Country. The fabric woven with this feather is warm in winter and cool in summer, although there is only a thin layer, but the light-blocking effect is better than thick cotton cloth, even in Yonggong, it is not very common. The Han family is really a rich country. ”
Qin Fei sat down on the couch, gently stroked a pot of nightshade incense placed on the side of the collapse and sighed: "The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty." Although the Han family is beautiful, after all, they are the courtiers of the Wing Kingdom, and in the face of the royal family who covets their wealth, it is simply self-defeating not to make friends with the magnates of other countries, but if they are too close to the magnates of other countries and are easy to be accused of collaborating with the enemy, their life is not easy. It is understandable that Han Wuyu is so painstakingly busy and has high hopes for Hangul. It's a pity that Hangeul is just a pot of wine and a book that is leisurely and self-sufficient. And who can tell who is right and who is wrong between father and son? It's only the providence that blames people. ”
Xiang Chonghua thought of his father, and said sadly: "Why isn't this the case with me and my father? The overlord dad happened to meet a chivalrous son. The misalignment of fate is the most helpless, but what can be done? You are still happy, although Mr. Zhuang Meng has detained you for so many years, he still let you go down the mountain and let you roam the sea and the sky. ”
Qin Fei sighed, raised his head and said to Xiang Chonghua: "There is something I haven't confessed to you. Do you remember that Xiao Tianhe? ”
Xiang Chonghua said: "Of course I remember." Listening to the meaning of Korean, he seems to have recovered from a serious illness. But if he hadn't been seriously ill, we wouldn't have met, and I'm afraid it's fate. ”
Qin Fei said tentatively: "If your fellow disciple not only put you down, stole your jade pendant and went down the mountain instead of you, but also caused you to go around in a delirious way to prevent fires and break your legs, what would you do with him?" ”
Xiang Chonghua didn't want to think about it: "I must pluck him out and hang him on the city tower, and then sing him a little song all night." ”
Qin Fei remembered Xiang Chonghua's ghostly wolf-like singing, shuddered, and said, "This is too ruthless, right?" ”
Xiang Chonghua suddenly looked at him and said in surprise: "You, are you really poisoning Xiao Tianhe and taking the mountain in his name?" ”
Qin Fei nodded in distress. Xiang Chonghua jumped up suddenly, took a few steps back, and said, "You, don't come here yet." ”
Qin Fei raised his hands and said, "Why do you want to do this, I won't harm you." ”
Xiang Chonghua leaned against the door and said, "That's not necessarily, it's better to be careful." Even if you want to stun him, won't it be over with a stick, why do you want to poison him? ”
Qin Fei hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Listen to my explanation." I didn't expect it to be like that. It's all because he showed me the letter Qin Rou gave him. That's not all, he laughed at me for not being worthy. Medicine, saying that others are poisonous. At most, the medicine can make people stand up to the corpse, and the poison I prepare can make people cheat the corpse. ”
Xiang Chonghua broke out in a cold sweat and said, "So, you gave him poison and medicine?" ”
Qin Fei sighed and said, "How can I be so ruthless? I just spilled all the freshly prepared medicine in his soup, trying to make him stunned so he wouldn't underestimate me. ”
Xiang Chonghua couldn't help but smile dumbly: "It seems that Xiao Tianhe still knows you very well." Is there any extra medicine to give me two bottles of self-defense. Suddenly, his face changed, and he covered his stomach and said, "Oh no, I have also taken your throat medicine." Qin Fei, do you have any good poison or medicine? ”
Qin Fei said angrily: "If you partner with him to anger me again, I will call you a corpse!" Moreover, the medicines I brought with me were all treasures stolen directly from the alchemy room. Do I seem like an adventurous person? ”
Xiang Chonghua walked over and patted him on the shoulder and smiled: "It seems that you are also very self-aware." ”
Qin Fei lowered his head and said, "Are you very angry and disappointed?" ”
Xiang Chonghua waved his hand and said, "Don't you also think that I am a powerful prince and grandson?" We are each other. Besides, you are so well-informed and so intelligent, and I am a real scourge. The only good thing about you being with me is that you have accumulated a lot of experience against the enemy. If you want to be angry, you should be angry. ”
Qin Fei said movingly: "You obviously surrendered your identity, and you have always protected me, are you really not wronged at all?" ”
Xiang Chonghua glared and said, "What are you wronged about?" If it weren't for you, I would have been poisoned hundreds of times by the people of the White Tiger Gate. People go to high places, if you want to realize your lofty ambitions, you naturally have to choose high branches, what right do I have to blame you? ”
Qin Fei sighed, and couldn't help but think of the words of the old man who was a god operator. He looked up at Xiang Chonghua's warm and sincere eyes, and fell into deep thought: Although Xiang Chonghua is at a disadvantage, if the Yong royal family needs someone who can compete with Xi Lihua, then it is not a dream for him to fly on the branches. What's more, it is really difficult to find a sincere and kind monarch who shares the hardships with him. However, what if Xi Lihua succeeded in easing the relationship with the nobles of Yongguo? In that case, all ambitions and ambitions will only come to naught, and even end up with lives.
Xiang Chonghua raised his hand and shook it in front of his eyes, and said, "Are you still worried?" It doesn't matter, if Xiao Tianhe chases after him, you can apologize to him. At most, I will sing your master and play the piano, tie you to a pillar, and let you listen to the ensemble of the two of us all day. ”
Qin Fei couldn't help but smile, and then said with a sad face: "How can it be that simple?" ”
Xiang Chonghua said: "You didn't mean it. What can your master really do to you? ”
Qin Fei sighed and said, "Have you heard of "Deviance"? ”
