Chapter 083: Hiding a knife in a smile, Hongmen Wine Banquet
"Is it hard for the division commander to sweep the floor? Do you want the students to pour a good drink? After Zhu Li's lecture, all the students had dispersed, and only Cai Yunzhi stayed in the hall, which happened to coincide with Xiang Lin cleaning the school. Cai Yunzhi has always greeted Zhu's uncle and nephew, and he has hatred for people like Xiang Lin, and treachery and kindness are always intolerable.
"If the ants don't sweep, won't they destroy the Holy Land of the Ming Hall?" Xiang Lin said and swept his feet, Cai Yun said angrily, "Master Xu, don't think that you can do whatever you want as the son-in-law of the Prime Minister, Guozijian is also a place with rules!" With that, he shook his hand and left. Xiang Lin was stunned when he heard this, thinking about when he became Lord Fan's son-in-law, and after thinking about it carefully, he seemed to understand something.
Xiang Lin asked Guo Zhong to visit the Prime Minister's Mansion successively, Fan Yile greeted each other into the hall, and told him and his daughter Fan Ningyu's family affairs, and Xiang Lin half pushed, as if he was hesitant and entangled, and seemed to be reluctant, Fan Yi smiled, "The little girl loves the son, the son also seems to like the little girl, the two of you are in love, isn't it a beautiful thing to have a good time this time, and what are the concerns?" Xiang Lin Si pondered for a moment and sighed, "Fortunately, I am loved by the Prime Minister, and I am grateful to Xiaosheng, but... It's just that getting married is a big deal, and let Xiao give birth to his mother, and think carefully..."
Fan Yidao: "This is the best, the son is not impatient, cautious and steady, quite talented, and the little girl is very relieved to marry the old man." Xiang Lin wanted to speak and stopped, and after thanking him, he retreated sullenly, Fan Ningyu, who was hiding behind the curtain, listened for a long time, although he didn't hear Xiang Lin's personal promise, but he was full of joy.
"What?! Did Childe really agree? Qiu Ying hurriedly came into the hall, and Xiang Lin didn't want to hide it from her, so he told her about the family, and his heart was extremely struggling and entangled, whether he should agree or not to agree to this family matter, he himself didn't know. Ziying is dead, but Childe still can't let her go, but the prime minister's daughter is not Ziying after all, does Childe really love her? Xiang Lin frowned, shook his head and said nothing, and Qiu Ying's eyes faded with tears.
Then Xiang Lin came to his mother's bedroom, Liu since he lost his sight, Qiu Ying has been with him, like his own mother to take care of her, Liu does not smile, morning and evening worship Buddha chanting, silent prayer.
"The child asks his mother to say goodbye..."Liu Shi stopped the Buddha beads in his hand, Xiang Lin helped her up from the futon to the head of the bed, held her hand and was reluctant to speak, Liu felt that the child was afraid of something unspeakable, and repeatedly interrogated, Xiang Lin slowly told him, when he mentioned Ziying, he was sad to Lin and sighed, he really didn't want to tell her about Ziying's disappearance.
Liu Shi looked pity, seemed to know what he wanted to say, and sighed, "For my mother's heart, like a mirror, Ziying is a simple and kind woman, but fate is predestined, and fate is thinner than paper... The two of you are already in love, and now it is rare to be tempted by other women, how can you stop you as a mother. "Previously, Qiu Ying pretended to be Ziying to take care of Liu, although Liu couldn't see it, but he could always notice something as the days went by.
"Forgive the child for the crime of lying, since the mother knows the truth, but please confide in her heart, Xiang'er is in a dilemma today, I really don't know what to do..."Xiang Lin knelt down in front of his mother. Liu shook his head, "Heart disease also requires heart medicine, other people's words are just a bowl of soup, can cure external diseases, how can you cure heart poison, do whatever you want..."Liu sighed and knelt on the futon, closed his eyes and read silently.
"You must not let him marry the daughter of the prime minister!" Seeing that Xiang Lin and Ning Yu are about to get married, Zhu's uncle and nephew are like pins and needles, and if they don't think of any way to obstruct it, I am afraid that the future days will no longer be stable. "But this Xu Xiang Lin has not done any unforgivable bad things except lecturing on weekdays, what if he can't get rid of the handle, he is afraid that the students of the family will not accept it!" The two had a conspiracy last time, but they didn't dare to mess around, and they were cautious in their words and deeds, and they really couldn't grasp anything.
"Now don't wait for the rabbit, take the initiative to attack is the best policy, wait for me to pass Lord Situ, if he agrees to help, uncle I have my own good plan to deal with it." Zhu Yiyin said. Later in the evening, Zhu Yi visited Situ Mansion and informed Xie Shen of the critical situation. This Xie Shen is a treacherous and evil sect, he doesn't deal with Fan Yiduo on weekdays, ice and fire intersect, and he is even more resentful when he hears Zhu Yiyi, how can Guozijian allow outsiders to seize power and power, and then ordered Zhu Yi to put aside his concerns, although he used means, he was responsible for something.
Zhu Yi heard Xie Shen say this, and rushed home to call Zhu Li again, the two of them had been plotting for a long time, and the trick they had planned before could finally come in handy.
The penalty period for sweeping the hall has passed, and Xiang Lin lectures and teaches as usual, but after this incident, Xiang Lin seems to understand why Zhu's uncle and nephew always have to make trouble for him everywhere, but he is not the same with his original intention, and still maintains his consistent teaching style and principles, but this is exactly what Zhu Yi and Zhu Li want to see at present, they just want to take advantage of this and let him taste what it is like to go from heaven to hell.
Zhu Li has also been polite to Lin recently, smiling when he speaks, and praising a few words in person from time to time. Zhu Yi is also very different from the past, he is Taoist and scholarly, and he is inviting wine and chatting, and he is involved in Lin Chu's career, he doesn't know that there is a deep situation in his heart, he thinks that these two people are slowly beginning to look at him squarely and respect him for doing so.
During this period, Fan Yi sent people to inquire about marriage many times, and Xiang Lin only said that he still needed to think carefully, Fan Yi thought that he had changed his mind by pushing it in every possible way, but Fan Ningyu persuaded his father not to be anxious, she was willing to wait for him, she was really an infatuated woman.
coincided with Zhu Yi's 60th birthday, and the invitations were widely distributed, and the Zhufu guest hall was full of friends, staggered, and there were songs and dances to help the fun, and the guests at the banquet laughed and laughed, leisurely and happy, and Xiang Lin was naturally among them. Taking advantage of the time of the wine, Zhu Yi introduced to the guests to Lin, and the words of praise are not a problem, and please improvise poems to Lin to help the wine, and toast to Lin in the hall, the exit is ready, the two guests shook their heads and shook their heads, tasted carefully, and listened to all the good poems and praises.
When everyone was intoxicated with the wine banquet, only Zhu Li was uncertain, humble and less drunk, while everyone was drunk and hazy, no one paid attention, he secretly took out a paper bag from his arms, poured the wine cup full and put it under the table, and poured the medicine powder in the paper bag into the cup and shook it a few times, the white medicine powder dissolved in the wine, and there seemed to be nothing suspicious.
Then, Zhu Li pretended to be drunk and shook the wine cup to Xiang Lin, "Doctor... Oh no, it should be the Master..."Zhu Li greeted him with a smile, "The Master is very knowledgeable, well-taught, and deeply respected by the students, which makes the Guozijian shine, and I really admire it!" ... I had a lot of calculations with the master before, and if there is any rudeness, I hope the master will be magnanimous and forgive me! As he spoke, he glanced at the wine cup on the table.
Xiang Lin drank in a daze, but the people who saw him couldn't listen to him, staggered up and wanted to pour wine to salute each other, Zhu Li's eyes were quick, he snatched his wine cup and put the wine cup in his hand on the table together, "Oh, I personally poured wine for the master, and the master sat down~" Xiang Lin Fan stared at the table, and in a trance Zhu Li had poured the wine cup full, and before he could bring it, Zhu Li first put a glass in his hand, and what was left on the table was the wine cup with medicinal powder.
"!!" The two raised their lamps and drank together, and after Xiang Lin drank it all, Zhu Li returned to his seat with a smile, and nodded to Zhu Yi, who was sitting upright on the high desk, Zhu Yi saw it all in his eyes, and then summoned the maid on the side to give advice, and the maid left the hall in response.
