Chapter 189: Chu State Fish Master (2)
"That's why I wanted to find the entrance that night and go in and have a look! As a result, I met you. I thrust the penny into the silt under the lake, leaned back, and the boat overwhelmed a few lotus leaves, and slowly sailed towards the little accord.
"With all your efforts, do you still want to explore the Jiangtai at night? How can you reassure me about you! Annoyed, he slapped me the calf, "You will stay in the room obediently for me these days, and I will explore the secret passage under the stage tonight, if it is really feasible, there will be another way out when I leave the palace in the future." ”
"Hmm. If Su Qi and I hadn't been sent out by Qi Hou later, she would definitely ask me to hand over the poison incense pills that would make Qi Hou sick tonight. Her kung fu is better than mine, I can't help but give it, but I haven't thought of any way to get close to Qi Hou now. ”
"Qi Hou handed it over to me, I'm afraid, now the Chen family's people don't plan to use poison to control Qi Hou anymore."
"Why?"
"I received a secret report yesterday that within three days, Qi Hou's younger brother Lu Biao would arrive in Linzi City."
"Gongzi is coming to Zi! Is Chen Heng planning to set up a new monarch? ”
"He was forced to be anxious this time, and the right minister Kan Zhi was about to move in the past few days, as if he wanted to use the guards of Linzi City to force Chen Heng to take the initiative to give up the position of the left minister." Seeing that the boat was only twenty feet from the shore, Wuxian immediately lowered his forehead hair to cover his eyes, and turned back into the ugly-looking bearded fisherman.
"This Kan Zhi is too composed. If Chen Heng really tore his face, this Qi Hou is afraid that he will follow in the footsteps of his father Qi Mourning Gong! ”
"The situation in the Qi State is getting more and more tense, if the Marquis of Qi can agree to form an alliance with the Jin State, we will help him. But if the situation reaches the point where it is out of control, we must find a way to leave Linzi as soon as possible. ”
"Hmm." I looked at Wuxian and nodded heavily.
The boat and the shore were less than ten feet, and I restrained my expression, put on a leisurely appearance, and sang the song of the mayfly Cao Di minor.
As soon as the monks on the shore saw us, they immediately lined up in two columns, and as soon as the boat docked, they rushed into the water and dragged the boat ashore in one go.
"Hurry up, you two, you can hurry." The fat temple people stood on tiptoe on the steps of the waterfront outside the small pavilion and waited, and when they saw the two of us coming one after the other, they hurriedly greeted us.
"I can save it." Without a lacquer bucket, he stepped into the small pavilion through an opening in the white jade railing.
At this moment, everyone in the hall was more drunk.
"Yu Shiyun, the widow just returned, are you boating on the lake with the widow's beauty and never return?" Qi Hou's face was flushed at this time, the purple robe on his body had been taken off and put on the arm of the temple man behind him, and the dark coat embroidered with gold dragon pattern was also torn open by him.
"On the honor, I despise staying in the lotus lake for a long time just to wait for this bream." As he spoke, he had already taken a coarse linen towel from the fat temple man, covered the fish head, and took the big fish more than two feet long out of the bucket.
"Oh-" Everyone at the table was thrown into the water by the big fish that struggled, but they still did not forget to let out a cry of exclamation.
"Hahahaha, Yushi Yun, there are many carp in the Widow Lotus Lake, why did you catch such a strange fish with a small head and a big belly?" Qi Hou waved his hand after speaking, "Fish Master Chop, let him see the green carp you prepared." ”
This fishmaster is a gray-haired old man, and he has been standing on the side of the high stairs with his head bowed and carrying a lacquer bucket since we came in from outside the hall. Hearing Qi Hou's call at this moment, he immediately bent down and walked to Wuxian's side, and reached out to fish out a two-palm-long cyan carp from the bucket.
The green carp is nothing unusual, but what is really amazing is the hands of the little old man. Thin as wood, there is a strange force, the slippery fish came to his hand, no matter how it bounced its tail, it was embedded in the hand of the fish master.
"Ziwu, you Chu people are really not experts! This raw fish is best with crucian carp and carp, and this bream is afraid that it can't be eaten, right? Qi Hou looked at Gongsun Chao, and the ability of the fish master to catch fish just now made him a little proud.
Gongsun Chao was also entrusted by the uncompassionate, and it is unknown whether he has eaten the fish made of this bream. I saw him laugh dryly twice, waved his hand and said, "Your Excellency might as well try it first, if it doesn't taste good, let him change to carp in the future." ”
"Hahaha, this is very good, if you enter my Qi country, you should follow the etiquette of my Qi people. Alright, you two get started! Qi Hou took a few shots, and then someone moved two thick wooden cutting boards, two buckets of water, and two large plates of crushed ice, and the small pavilion was cold for a while.
The fish master put the carp on the cutting board, cut two wounds on the head and tail with a knife, and then put the carp back into the water. The carp fluttered and struggled in the water with blood, rippling with layers of red waves. Although I knew that the fish master was cutting the carp to drain the blood from the carp and remove the fishy smell of the fish, I had no appetite when I looked at the dying and struggling green carp.
On the other hand, the shirtless hand is much more simple and neat. He knelt there like the most ordinary fisherman washing the evening food that would fill his family's stomach by the river at sunset.
The doctors of Qi and Chu were all sitting in the small pavilion, and they were used to seeing fish masters who loved to play tricks, so when they saw the rough method of killing fish without mercy, they began to show disdain.
It may seem to them that the bearded fisherman's movements may have been rough, but in my eyes, my heart was hot. In fact, he can not come, he can ask someone to send a message to force me out of the palace. But he didn't, he didn't even let Gongsun Chao ask Qi Hou for me directly. He asked me what I meant, and knew that I didn't want to leave the palace, so he came up with the later saying of entering the fish offeror. He is obviously a man with hills and ravines in his chest and one hand that can turn over the clouds, but at this moment, for me, he knelt here to knock on the head of the fish, broke the belly of the fish, and made him full of fish.
He came to fulfill my crazy idea of "stopping the war and fighting invisible". But if Chen Heng really wants to force the palace to rebel, and the crisis will affect him at that time, what should I do? Thinking of this, I suddenly felt scared.
Hey, let's fight a war, when Zhao Ying attacked the guard, if the Qi State really led the army to rescue, it would also be an expedition of laborers, and the Jin army might not suffer. Or, Zhao Ying and Wuxian could capture the Weidu in a few days, and it would be too late for Chen Heng to bring his troops over. Well, if the Jin people really can't defeat the Qi people, it's a big deal to withdraw the army, give that damn Kuai Shen to the Qi people, and kill or chop them if they want......
The more I thought about it, the more outrageous it became, and it wasn't until Gongsun Chao pinched me heavily under the case that I woke up.
"What's wrong with you, your face is so ugly? Are you afraid that he will lose? Gongsun Chao approached me and whispered.
I hurriedly shook my head and looked up at the two people in the hall.
Fang Cai's two live fish have been cleaned up by Wuxian and the fish master. On the thick cutting board, two slices of white and powdered fish are placed.
At this time, Qi Hou on the high platform suddenly pushed with his big hand, overturning Ah Su, who was mixing cold dishes on the side, to the ground: "You, go and stroke a song, and cheer up the two fish masters!" ”
Qi Hou actually asked Ah Su Fuqin to cheer up the fish master?! Even in the country of Qi, where everyone likes to eat fish, the status of the fish master is still lowly and humble. Ah Su is the queen of the Fan family of the Jin Kingdom, and she is the righteous daughter of Chen Heng, and the Marquis of Qi asked her to play the qin for the fish master, obviously with a humiliating heart.
Ah Su was pushed to the ground by Qi Hou, but she quickly stood up, picked up the bamboo chopsticks that fell to the ground with a smile, and leaned over and responded: "No! ”
Those who play the harp need to bathe and change their clothes and burn incense to calm their minds. The musicians of Qingle Fang have set the rules of "caressing". No incense is not touched, no moon is not touched, and the listener is not caressing.
The first two things are okay, just look for a moon night and light a light incense. But in the last case, "the listener has no intention of caressing", but only Qingge decides. She wants to stroke the piano, but the listener has a heart, and when she doesn't want to stroke, she says that you are not sincere enough. A masked musician, a musician with such a strange and lofty temperament, but it can make the men of Linzi City haunt her dreams, but you can think about how good her piano skills are.
It's just that today, even if Ah Su is really a musician, she is afraid that she will have no fragrance and no moon, accompanied by this fishy atmosphere in the room, and a song for our group of unintentional people.
The piano case was placed next to Qi Hou, Ah Su sat cross-legged, and two strands of green silk slid down with her slight side head, covering half of her makeup, revealing only three cinnabar wings hanging from the corners of her eyes, like three drops of blood and tears.
Wuxian and the fish master took out a piece of fish dagger, the cold light flashed, and the first music immediately slipped out under Ah Su's fingers, not restless, clear and elegant.
After that, I saw the knife light flickering during the banquet, the ten fingers on the stage flew up, and the snow-white fish fillets were like white jade butterflies, riding the melodious music and wading away, gently falling on the iceberg made of broken ice.
Asu's piano sound matched the movements of the fish master during the banquet, sometimes slow and sometimes urgent, fast and slow, for a while like a silver waterfall straight down, flying beads splashing jade; For a while, it was like a babbling stream, flowing freely. Between the sound of the water, two golden carp suddenly jumped up in the lotus lake, bent their backs and bounced their tails to cross two golden lines in the air, and then fell between the lotus leaves of Tiantian.
The silver dagger in Wuxian's hand and his hand seemed to be fused into one, the knife was quick and ruthless, the knife fell softly, and when they fell together, one by one the white butterflies broke out of the cocoon in his hand.
On the iceberg, the thin belly spreads out, the piano sound suddenly turns again, rises and falls, the clouds roll up, so that the musicians are like climbing the mountain, dancing the breeze between the ups and downs, playing the mountain, and being at ease. The five-stringed piano, the ten jade fingers, the sound of the piano is swaying, and it is no longer smelling of fish, let alone the scorching summer.
As soon as the fish master raised his hand, he collected the knife, a trill, and the aftertaste lingered. The Si people took advantage of the fun and left, leaving only a group of mesmerized listeners.
This is her piano sound, this is her piano demon, and I am already stunned.
After Ah Su got up with the qin, knelt on the ground and knelt again, Qi Hou woke up from the music, he opened his mouth for a long time, and only said one word: "Reward!" ”
