The shopkeeper agreed, and then reluctantly retreated.

When Liu Qing saw him leaving, he invited the two of them to sit down, picked up the wine glass again, and said to Qiu Yizhi and Shi Wei: "The last general is the landlord, and I will do it first as a respect!" ”

Shi Wei also raised his wine glass filled with amber crystal clear liquid and touched it with Liu Qing.

Qiu Yizhi had something on his mind, but he didn't want to spoil Liu Qing and Shi Wei's interest, so he also raised his glass and took a small sip of wine, and suddenly a rich aroma of wine spread in his mouth, and his body immediately added three points of heat.

Liu Qing saw Shi Wei drain the wine glass to the end, quite giving himself face, and he was happy. In a blink of an eye, he saw that Qiu Yizhi only symbolically touched the wine with his lips, but because of his noble status, he didn't dare to forcibly persuade him to drink, so he squeezed out a smile and said, "My lord, can you still see this restaurant?" ”

Qiu Yizhi nodded, and said casually: "I have also been to several big restaurants of Zhou Cijing's big officials, and they are not much better than those here. But as for what's good, I'm a layman, and I can't see any way. ”

Liu Qing heard Qiu Yizhi say this, so he explained the benefits of this "garden building" endlessly, from the location to the decoration, from the dishes to the wine, from the chef to the second child, in short, there is no place that does not suit Liu Qing's taste.

Qiu Yizhi has his own thoughts, and he has spoken without a word, but Shi Wei is quite interested, and a pair of triangular eyes that are always squinted are also wide open, and his eyes emit a curious light.

While he was talking, the shopkeeper had already brought up seven or eight dishes, and a table was full.

Qiu Yizhi was hungry in his belly, and his chopsticks reached into a plate of fried oily, yellow and oily dishes, and he suddenly picked up a large piece and sent it to his mouth. When chewed carefully, it is just bean sprouts, but it is only slightly finely processed.

So Qiu Yizhi asked: "It seems that under the fame of this garden building, it is actually difficult to deserve." It's not a precious dish, it's just a few soybean sprouts. ”

Liu Qing said with a smile: "My lord's words are not bad. However, this dish uses the original bean sprouts, and asks someone to pinch the head and remove the tail, so that it seems to be wishy-washy. Then pick ten good fat chickens, boil them into a pot of chicken fat, and finally stir-fry them with this chicken fat to have this wishful dish. Adults may wish to reminisce, is there a taste of chicken juice in this bean sprout? ”

Qiu Yizhi listened to it, and after a while, there was a melodious fresh chicken flavor in his mouth, which complemented the crisp flavor of bean sprouts, and it was indeed a delicious dish.

Qiu Yizhi was interested, and tasted several other dishes on the table, the taste was light or rich, each with its own characteristics, and the three meanings of "color, fragrance, and taste" were also complete - chewing such a delicacy gradually soothed the depression in his heart that had accumulated before. However, after all, he often tasted the dishes cooked by Wu Ruofei, but he felt that the dishes in the garden outside the building were too ingenious to eat, and they were inevitably clichés.

Shi Wei was very interested, and while picking up vegetables and drinking, he kept admiring in his mouth: "General Liu is really a blessing, I am really envious of being an official in the land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River." ”

Liu Qing hurriedly smiled and said softly: "Isn't this the emperor's grace? Besides, Lord Shi is busy, and I have tasted enough food from all over the Han Dynasty, so what is there to envy me? ”

Shi Wei waved his hand holding the chopsticks and said, "General Liu's words are not wrong, but they are not all right. However, I heard such a story when I passed the decree, I wonder if His Highness Yi and General Liu are interested in listening to me? ”

Liu Qing nodded in agreement, of course.

Qiu Yi had another idea in his heart: Liu Qing said that his official position was rewarded by the emperor, and this statement was not only high-sounding, but also raised the supreme name, but he didn't know that it became "not all right" in Shi Wei's mouth. So Qiu Yizhi didn't hear Shi Wei's question, lowered his head and picked up a chopstick without knowing what kind of dish, so he sent it to his mouth.

But I heard Shi Wei say: "I heard this when I went to Huguang Road to preach the decree. It is said that there was a holy monk in the local court, who admired the Buddha country of Tianzhu wholeheartedly, and went through a lot of hardships and dangers, and finally arrived at Tianzhu. After arriving in Tianzhu, the holy monk naturally wanted to sweep the tower to worship the temple and ask the Buddha for reason. However, he visited the ancient temples and temples, among which Buddhism is not much more advanced than that of Middle-earth. The holy monk was disappointed, but he heard that in an ancient temple deep in the mountains, there was an ascetic old monk who meditated very deeply. So the holy monk went through more hardships, and finally found this old monk and debated the Dharma with him. However, the Dharma that this old monk has practiced and comprehended all his life cannot surpass the holy monks of Middle-earth. The monk was finally annoyed by the holy monk's question, and suddenly asked, "What are you doing, a monk from Middle-earth, coming to our Tianzhu?" If we recite the scriptures every day and do good deeds every day, it is impossible to achieve positive results. I look forward to reading more scriptures in this life, accumulating some merits, and being reincarnated in your eastern China to enjoy happiness in the next life! ’”

Liu Qingcheng's mansion was a little shallow, and after listening to Shi Wei's words, he was already looking up to the sky and laughing.

Qiu Yizhi has seen the world, but when he heard Shi Wei say it interestingly, he also smiled: "Your turtle is really interesting to talk about." But what does this story have to do with Liu Qing being sent to Jiangnan? ”

Shi Wei replied: "What the villain means is that the emperor's grace is vast, the rain and dew are even, and the villain is on the same side as General Liu, and the emperor does not favor one over the other. Why was it that General Liu was able to come to Jiangnan to enjoy the blessings, and I could only do some errands to make a living? It's not that the villain didn't accumulate blessings in his last life! ”

Qiu Yizhi heard Shi Wei forcibly say the words, so he smiled and said: "As the saying goes, 'the elders are not good, but they know the county in this life'." If you follow your theory of karma reincarnation, it seems that I, a little Qipin county official, must have been a bandit who robbed homes and houses in my last life? ”

Shi Wei hurriedly said: "You can't say that. The blessings of His Royal Highness Yi, except for the three princes under the emperor's knees, who else in the world can compare? It's just that I'm bored, and I'm just a small county magistrate to relax. Thanks to the emperor and His Royal Highness Hongfu, the villain can be regarded as a master, but looking at His Royal Highness is like a firefly looking up at Haoyue. ”

Shi Wei's sycophant shot was just right, which made Qiu Yizhi smile: "Then you have to do more good deeds and accumulate virtue from today on." ”

Shi Wei was about to answer, but he heard Liu Qing snatch the conversation next to him and said, "Who can tell you clearly about the next life?" In my opinion, there is still wine today, and it is really drunk today. I don't think the three of us can have enough fun sitting and drinking and eating food today, so it's better to-"

Liu Qing deliberately dragged out his voice but did not continue, and immediately aroused Shi Wei's interest and asked, "What's better?" ”

Liu Qing deliberately sold a pass, took a sip of wine and asked: "This is the bank of the Qinhuai River, and Brother Shi used to be in charge of warm account affairs, so don't pretend to be stupid, right?" ”

Halfway through Liu Qing's words, Qiu Yizhi had already guessed the probability, knowing that Liu Qing wanted to invite a few people to visit the Qinglou painting boat. However, Qiu Yizhi has just read the autograph letter sent to him by the emperor, in which the words "lack of energy", "not enough", "self-frugality" and other words are still in front of him.

Although he didn't answer, Shi Wei seemed to have been teased by Liu Qing a little unbreathable, swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "This, the official ran into the Qinglou, it seems to be unsightly, right?" If it is seen by any of the imperial historians who went south to inspect it, and a copy of the chapter is impeached, even if the six Hades can open the net, Zhongli will definitely not be able to pass the pass of Prime Minister......"

Liu Qing said with a smile: "Brother Shi is a layman. These green buildings next to the Qinhuai River are just a façade, and if you want to go, you have to go to the top of the painting boat. The boat is very private, and the sailors patrolling the river are under my control, who doesn't dare to disturb it? Boating on the river, quiet in the middle of the noise, the eyes are the grand scenery on both sides of Qinhuai, and listening to Wu Nong's soft words in the ears, no matter how comfortable it is. If it's exciting, hehehehe......"

When Qiu Yi saw that he was getting carried away, he suddenly remembered that the emperor's secret edict to him mentioned that Liu Qing's character and ability were not up to the important task of the Jiangnan Provincial Jie Du envoy, so after the Japanese were pacified, he would be transferred to another use-Liu Qing's "comfortable" good life was about to come to an end, but he didn't know it yet-When he thought of this section, Qiu Yi laughed contemptuously in his heart.

I heard Shi Wei say again: "Jinling is famous for a Qinhuai River, and Qinhuai Bayan is even more well-known, one of them is called Wu Ruofei, who is rumored to be peerless, and is the first beauty in the world. I don't know if Liu Jiedu has a way to let me have a glimpse of this Wu Ruofei's demeanor, and it can be regarded as if I didn't run this trip in vain? ”

Liu Qing was stunned when he heard this, and remembered that this Wu Ruofei was Lin Shuhan's confidante, and Lin Shuhan was a counselor under Qiuyi's account, and he didn't care about Lin Shuhan, just looking at Qiuyi's face, he couldn't talk nonsense. So Liu Qing pondered the words and said: "Brother Wu Ruofei don't think about it, there are Oiran in Jinling City, why bother staring at this Wu Ruofei." ”

Shi Wei said: "It is said that if this Wu Ruo is not like a heavenly immortal, the other seven in Qin Huai Bayan are not as good as her." Isn't it expensive to wrap around the head silver? It's okay, I've saved some money in the past two years, and I'm willing to spend it in this place. ”

Liu Qing peeked at Qiu Yi, and saw that he didn't seem to hear the conversation between the two, and he took care of his own food and drank wine with a wooden face, so he said, "This is not a matter of silver." Brother Shi didn't know that Wu Ruofei had been ransomed earlier this year, and he didn't know whose doorway he had trusted, and he heard that even his lowly status had been pardoned, and it was no longer something that could be seen casually. ”

When Qiu Yizhi heard this, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart: "Pardon Wu Ruofei, isn't it just that he begged the emperor for mercy in person?" As for Wu Ruofei's redemption money, half of it was paid by himself. Otherwise, with the high level of 'Mr. Bansong' Lin Shuhan, how could he deign to be a master? ”

Shi Wei was shocked when he heard this, and said: "This Wu Ruofei is really amazing, the barriers to scholars, agriculture, industry, and commerce are strict, how can he change his nationality casually?" If there is a way, maybe the official Lang Zhong of the household department secretly changed it in the household register, and when the population of the world is counted, it will be corrected on the grounds of 'clerical error'. But a person as famous as Wu Ruofei will be immediately exposed if he moves such a trick. If she wants to change her nationality, I'm afraid she has a relationship with the head of the household or a squire, or even the prince! ”

Qiu Yizhi listened to Shi Wei's analysis, although he didn't guess correctly, he also guessed eight or nine, and felt that this "turtle man" who specializes in passing orders and running errands also has some brains.

I heard Shi Wei sigh again: "It seems that I have no chance to see Wu Ruofei!" Alas! ”

Liu Qing ate some wine and was already a little drunk, but said: "Others may not be able to, but Brother Shi will inevitably have no chance." Do you think, this Wu Ruofei committed Lin Shuhan is being a master under His Royal Highness Yi, if His Royal Highness comes forward to invite her to have a drink, will she dare to refuse? Liu Qing said, the corners of his mouth raised a slightly lewd smile.

Qiu Yizhi listened to him speak more and more inappropriately, stared at a pair of eyes, and swept his gaze to Liu Qing's face.
