047 Talking about the heart under the moon and cooking wine under the flowers
There is a white begonia in the backyard of the inn, floating with the clear glow of the moonlight, and a gust of night breeze blows down, floating down three or four petals.
On the stone table, Uncle Liang scalded a pot of wine at night, and two white-glazed porcelain cups blurred the moonlight, but he drank alone.
By the time Luo Shi came out after changing his clothes, he was already half a pot.
Luo Shi had a man's half-arm inside, a round robe on the outside, and the sleeves were loose and long, and she deliberately tied them up with her climbing arms, revealing two thin white and slender little arms.
The waist is tightly tied, showing her waist even more, with the softness of a woman and the chic spirit of a man.
She paced over, the begonia petals fell on her shoulders, she stroked it gently, quite a bit of Wei and Jin romance, so she looked at it, she didn't look like the original little village girl in Niujia Village.
"The pear blossom is white, I deliberately scalded it, and it is not suitable to drink cold wine at night"
"I'm not drinking well, aren't you afraid I'll go crazy?"
Uncle Liang smiled helplessly: "You may not have a good temper when you are sober, where can you be spicy after drinking?"
Luo Shi pursed her lips, but she didn't deny what he said.
The handle poured her full of wine, and Uncle Liang said slowly: "It's not easy to learn martial arts, but if you have a choice, why do you have to embark on this road?" β
With the cup in his hand, he thought of the old scars on his body, and asked tentatively:
"What did you leave from these wounds when you went into battle?"
Uncle Liang shook his head: "I have never really been on the battlefield, nor have I really killed an enemy with my own hands"
Luo Shi was taken aback and hurriedly said, "Then how did these injuries come from?" β
"My dad beats, just like my trial pocket, but I was earlier and worse than him, just when I learned to walk, my dad forced me to pick up the sword, let me know the cruelty of the battlefield, when I only know how to dodge, leave no room to knock me over, but as long as I still have a little strength to stand up, he will not let me go to heal"
Luo Xi recalled that Uncle Liang's ruthless determination to the pocket that day, she couldn't help but tremble, the child who just learned to walk, did she need to bear that? She really couldn't imagine it.
"The Jin family has been a general from generation to generation, stationed in Liangzhou for the imperial court, and resisted the Xirong people for a hundred years. My father said that the enemy will not wait for me to grow up and gradually have the ability to fight them, so they will move south, the battlefield is my destination, and the tempering will only make me grow faster and live longer."
His eyes were gloomy, and he drank a cup of pear blossom white.
The begonia fell on the back of his hand, and he didn't brush it off, just stared at it in a daze, looking dazed.
"You say you've never been on the battlefield?"
"Yes, this is the imperial court's scruple about our family."
Uncle Liang laughed at himself at night, tried his best to suppress his emotions, and calmly said this matter:
"The national strength is declining, but Xirong is strong, and the imperial court has to deploy more and more troops in Liangzhou to resist the enemy, do you know how many soldiers there are in Liangzhou?"
Luo Shi shook her head, she was just a little girl who had just come out of the countryside, the biggest official she had ever seen was Huo Bald, and the most powerful person she knew was General He Song, how did she know about these national events.
"There are 300,000 soldiers stationed in Liangzhou, 50,000 elite ironclad cavalry, and reinforcements from surrounding state capitals, plus a total of more than 600,000, accounting for as much as 60% of the country's military strength. Except for General He Song's local Qinwang soldiers, the remaining Praetorian Guards in the capital are only 30,000, and the emperor is not afraid of my family."
The high places are unbearable, and the emperor's family relies on the generals but is afraid of them, and even the birds hide their bows, which are too numerous in all dynasties.
"I gave up practicing martial arts and became a young master who was drunk on eating and drinking, but this could not eliminate the vigilance of the imperial court, they put a "general Gu" on me, and sent my sister to garrison Liangzhou, I must return to Beijing alone once a year, I will have an antidote to continue my life. β
Rash was shocked, and she immediately remembered the wound on his chest:
"What Gu poison? Is there such a thing in the world? β
The general Gu, as the name suggests, is a Gu given to the general, so that he bows down to the minister, and there is no second heart.
Uncle Liang touched his heart at night, his eyebrows frowned, his face was handsome, but his eyes were cold:
"I can't use force, as soon as I move my hands, my body will be surging with qi and blood, and I will vomit blood, and the closer to autumn, the more serious it will be......"
No wonder he was so seriously injured, it turned out that when he tried his pocket that day, he used force to make the Gu poison attack back.
Uncle Liang looked at Luo Shi at night, and saw that although she had a cold expression and frowning eyebrows, she did not have the slightest intention of avoiding or disgusting, and couldn't help but have an inexplicable light in her eyes, and asked softly:
"You're not afraid of me?"
Luo Shi gave him a strange look and said with a smile:
"This Gu will only make you powerless, and it's not a full moon day that will go berserk and kill people and suck blood, what do I have to be afraid of, it should be that you are afraid of me, and when the autumn weather is cold, you can't even beat me!"
Uncle Liang was stunned at night, he told her the secrets between the family and the court, but she didn't care at all?
"You're frowning, and you've been silent for so long, just want to say this?"
Luo Shi shook her head and sighed:
"Of course not, I'm thinking that you have so many knife wounds, don't eat spicy food in the future, I'll make more nourishing medicinal food for you, and I'll help you last until your sister comes back, don't die first, that's not worth it"
Uncle Liang made a force in his hand, clicked, the cup was crushed in his palm, he gritted his teeth, and said:
"Radix - Astringent"
"Here!"
ββ¦β¦β
Uncle Liang looked at her smiling face, her long hair was loosely tied behind her head, and her eyebrows were a little more heroic, she was playing with him as before, and it didn't affect half a point at all, he thought, isn't this kind of ending exactly what he longs for?
He was afraid that she would avoid her like a snake and scorpion, and he was even more afraid of her pity and sympathy.
He imagined that a normal person was treated, had a feeling, and had a person he admired, instead of being crowned with the fate of dying on the battlefield from birth, and lived for death.
Seeing that there were too many emotions in his eyes that needed to be vented, Luo Shi filled his cup with wine and handed it to him:
"I should drink less wine in the future, but I salute you and the future of you and me in this cup"
The begonias floated down and fell into the wine glass, rippling with wine, just like her gentleness.
*
Late at night, Luo Shi returned to her shop and tossed and turned in bed.
She didn't know how to help Uncle Liang, let alone Gu poison, even if it was a diarrhea, she wouldn't be able to cure it, let alone find a way to get an antidote, so that he could completely break this torture.
She couldn't think of a better way to maintain the delicate relationship between her and him than to treat him as usual.
She has her own hardships, he also has his own fate, reason tells her that this is the best way to get along, if it goes further, neither of them can bear the future of the other, and make the promise of the white head of the life.
After a sleepless night, she got up with panda eyes, brought a copper basin to wash her face, and brushed her teeth with green salt to rinse her mouth.
Hurry up, she has to go to the Yixue Hall to apologize to her master, she has thought about it, although Douzi is no longer studying in the school, but she still has to continue to wrap up this lunch.
The master was very grateful for her kindness, and the poor students also had a great opinion of her, and many people who despised her in the past also secretly came to apologize to her.
The same master set the time of delivery of meals and the number of people who ate every day, but in the future, she would not cook and deliver it by herself, she would let people make it in the form of a bento, compared to those sold in teahouses and docks, the supply school will pay more attention to nutritional matching, there are meat and vegetables every day, and fish and meat are continuous.
When she came back from Yixue, she passed by a money bank, and couldn't help but step down, looking up at the golden dragon pillar outside the money village, and beating the drum with trepidation.
Kong Fang Qian Zhuang is the connecting hub between this world and real life.
At that time, before the crossing, the company had a special person to train this money bank, and asked every customer who bought the crossing package to write down a string of inexplicable account addresses. As long as the time of the package is up, you can find this bank, report the account address, and ask for the money to be remitted, which can be converted into RMB and withdrawn from the company's finance department after crossing back.
Including the renewal time, I also contacted this bank, and even the counter for handling it was different.
Luo Shi saw that it was still early, and planned to go in to have a look and understand the process, so that it would not be the time to go back and rush here to save money.
Looking up, this Kong Fang Qian Zhuang is so angry.
The doors of the tall shops were inlaid with iron leaves, the wooden fences were erected high, and the brick walls were thick. The money dragon in front of the door around the golden pillar is majestic, and the four-character bronze medal is hung on the lintel, and the book is "Kong Fang Qianzhuang".
Luo Shi stepped in, and was faced with a row of high counters, and the money bank guy on it was smiling:
"This girl looks at her eyes, is she here to exchange money, or to deposit silver loans?"
"I'll deposit the silver, and the head of the account is No. 340 in Long County."
The man's face changed, and he hurriedly said, "Girl, wait!" β
After a while, the shopkeeper of the money village came out and said politely: "It's rare that the trumpet has another one today, please come inside!" β
Luo Shi's eyebrows jumped, that word made her very uncomfortable, could it be that the crossing girl had already come?
But she clearly ......
Before Luo Shi could figure it out, the shopkeeper had already led her through the huge main hall of the money village to a remote backyard.
The backyard is paved with floor tiles, and there is a square copper coin with a width of zhang on the middle floor tiles, and he walked around the copper coin according to a specific footstep, and the stone slab in the hole square sinks, revealing a dark underground passage, and the stone steps go all the way down, and I don't know where it leads.
The shopkeeper smiled at Chao Luoxi: "You have to go down by yourself, there is someone to handle it for you, I have no right to go down, so I won't accompany the girl."
He made a gesture of pleaseβ
Luo Xian settled down, leaned against the wall, approached the cramped corridor, and walked down the stairs step by step, about half an hour, when Luo Xian suspected that she was going to hell, her eyes were bright, and she walked into a hall of about two hundred square meters.
Under the feet is the marble paved ground, shiny tile, fine dust, the head is a crystal lamp, under the closer look is actually the night pearl gathered into the lamp, the faint light is like a sink, shining.
A very modern counter stood in the middle of the large hall, and a man in a suit smiled at her:
"Miss Ross, good afternoon."
