Chapter 18: Wine meets confidants

After a few days of recuperation, Li Tiantu, who finally got a little better, just stepped out of the room and was summoned by the emperor into the south study.

Tianxuandu Long Yan was furious and asked, "Who is it?" Who's doing it? No matter who it is this time, I will not spare it. "A few days ago, Li Tiantu's physical condition was extremely poor, and Tianxuan forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and didn't ask.

is also at the foot of the Son of Heaven, and the assassination target is also the commander of the Son of Heaven's close attendant Praetorian Army, similar to the assassination of the former Praetorian Guard commander Yan Wuregret happened again, where does this place the imperial power? As the emperor, how can Tianxuandu not be angry?

Li Tiantu could feel that Tianxuandu was really angry this time, and he roughly went through the life and deeds of Jian Jiuling in his mind, but found that the prime minister from the scholarly family was not only a little conceited, but also had a good reputation in the temple. He had every reason to believe that Jian Jiuling was completely unaware of this matter, and it seemed that the problem should be with the stunned Jian Chenfei. Li Tiantu smiled coldly, things seemed to be clear, this was the self-proclaimed resourceful Nangong Huai who took the honest sword Chenfei as a gunman. On the contrary, he had a good impression of Jian Chenfei, not to mention that plotting to assassinate the important ministers of the Forbidden Palace was a capital crime on the surface, and it was verified that even the son of the prime minister was no exception, how could he watch Jian Jiuling lose his son and lose his only son.

Li Tiantu shook his head and pretended not to know, and said softly: "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't know." ”

It took a long time for Tianxuan, who had calmed down the anger in his heart, to stared at Li Tiantu's eyes tightly, and laughed at himself: "Do you even want to deceive me now?" Yesterday, I saw that your wound burned like black charcoal, is it the Tianyang Sword of the Ninth Age? ”

Li Tiantu secretly complained in his heart, he knew that he had neglected some key things. But he was not ready to change his original intention, and said calmly with a flash of lightning in his mind: "Among the four black-clothed people, the one who uses the sword seems to be cultivating pure yang true qi, and the other party is only afraid that he is trying to frame the Prime Minister's Mansion by doing this." ”

Tianxuandu pondered at the desk, and thought deeply of Li Tiantu's analysis in his heart, the Tianyang Sword that had just mentioned the prime minister was just deceiving Li Tiantu, since he couldn't get any useful information, the distraught emperor simply waved his hand, signaling that Li Tiantu could leave.

Li Tiantu went out of the south study, only to find that it was almost dusk, and dinner time was approaching. Subconsciously didn't want to stay in Dianqing Pavilion in the face of that beautiful man's Li Tiantu turned his head and walked out of the palace, and came to the old Wangtou roast braised shop on the side of the alley of the palace alone.

Lao Wangtou's beef shop is a famous food in the night market of Jingshi Alley, and its signature dishes of braised beef and duck in sauce are Lao Wangtou's secret skills. Whether it is ordinary people, or high-rollers, and even some dignitaries, they all like to feast here.

In Lao Wangtou's semi-open-air night market shop, you can spend the least amount of money but enjoy the most characteristic and delicious snacks in Beijing.

Lao Wangtou's shop is very small, and the small one can only fit four tables, and the remaining six tables can only be placed on both sides of the alley. Yes, there are ten tables in total, and Lao Wangtou only receives ten tables of guests every night.

It seems to be a dirty and inconspicuous small place, but it is cleaned up by the old king, which makes people eat extremely comfortably.

Li Tiantu sat on the wooden bench at the entrance of the alley, looking at the few braised beef and duck in sauce left on the table in front of him, as well as two plates of braised peanuts and fennel beans with wine, he suddenly admired himself a little.

Knowing that he is now embattled, his appetite has not been affected in the slightest. Of course, Li Tiantu didn't know that the four princes of Jingshi were plotting to kill him. What he thought about most at this time was that from the moment the emperor personally appointed him as the deputy commander of the forbidden army, there were many people who wanted to kill him.

The holy will is unpredictable, and the emperor suddenly has high hopes for him, and he can't guess why. In fact, he is not very interested in this official position, but others do not see it that way. It has become a fact that Nangong Huai hates him because of Yan Meiren, and the other major forces in Jingshi are also jealous of him. If Nangong Huai provokes it again, he seems to have become a public enemy. What's more, with Nangong Huai's communication skills, even if there is no stake in him, there are not a few people who want to kill him.

Most people who became famous stepped on other people's bones before they became famous. The pursuit of fame and fortune has been the case since ancient times, is it possible that in this life, there is nothing else but fame and fortune?

Li Tiantu laughed at himself, it was a little ridiculous to think about it, he had nothing before, he ate the last meal and didn't eat the next meal, but he was also at ease. And now, although they are rich and rich, they have so many troubles out of thin air.

Li Tiantu suddenly missed the past days a little. But if he is really asked to go back to the past, he is a little unwilling, and he has a contradictory life.

Suddenly having a headache, Li Tiantu knew that he was thinking too much, and he had distracting thoughts in his heart. In fact, he himself knew that all these troubles were because of that woman.

A man has a headache, it seems, never because of a difficult situation, but for the woman he loves.

Since that assassination on the street, in order to suppress the Yang Qi of the "Blazing Sun" in his body, Li Tiantu still does not dare to gather half of his internal strength. Despite this, the supreme yang qi of the Qi Sea Cave was still about to move, and ten percent of the Heavenly Dao True Qi that had gathered all over the body showed signs of being unable to suppress it. He knew that once the power of the Heavenly Dao could not suppress this external force, the Yang Qi that had been compressed for a few days would burst in his body like an over-squeezed ball. Now he doesn't have any internal strength, just a third-rate warrior can be worth his death, so why did the four princes of Lao Jingshi send someone to take action?

Now the only thing he can't worry about is the woman; Now his only regret is that he failed to avenge Yan Wuregret; Now the only thing he can satisfy himself is the complicated world, but he can keep the peace in his heart, not arrogant or impatient, and do something and nothing. After all, I have lived, loved, and I have a clear heart, and that's enough.

Li Tiantu didn't come early tonight, this wooden table was the sixth small table that Lao Wang Tou had set up outside the shop. Regular customers know that once Lao Wangtou starts to set up the sixth temporary wooden table, it means that Lao Wangtou is ready to close the door. At this time, don't talk about dignitaries, even if the princes and princes come, it's useless.

The old regulars who have already sat down are gloating, and they don't know which unlucky guy is going to come for nothing.

Li Tiantu tasted the old king's self-brewed liquor and burned the knife, ate the braised beef in his hand, and threw all the troubles out of the clouds.

Drinking wine in a big bowl and eating meat, Li Tiantu suddenly felt that there was a breath of rivers and lakes on his body.

It's just that there was suddenly an extra long sword on the table, and there was also an extra person on the bench opposite.

Li Tiantu raised his head and found that this was a handsome young man in his twenties, and Li Tiantu had to admit that he was one of the most handsome men he had ever seen. Of course, there is also a touch of extraordinary. But if that's all, Li Tiantu doesn't plan to let him sit down and share wine and food with him. Because he only likes good-looking women, he even hates men who are more optimistic than himself. When I think about it, I'm really not generous enough.

Li Tiantu was about to speak, but the young man on the opposite side had already taken the lead, "Introduce yourself, I'm Yun Mengfei." The momentum of the elder brother must be a generous person, and he doesn't mind if the younger brother sits down and drinks together. Yun Mengfei smiled all over his face, and first brought a high hat to Li Tiantu in case the other party directly rejected him.

Yun Mengfei's words were polite and kind, the so-called reaching out and not hitting the smiling person, Li Tiantu really couldn't think of any reason not to let the other party sit down, so he had to frown and said, "You have already sat down, I will let you get up again, won't you become a stingy person?" ”

While speaking, Li Tiantu poured himself another bowl of spirits.

The old king's rules are known to him, and he is full of guests. But if someone is willing to give up half of their seat, it's not a violation of the rules. Anyway, there are a lot of drinks and dishes to ask for today, and it's not bad to have someone to drink a few bowls with you.

A big ingots of ten taels were thrown on the table by Yun Mengfei, he took the wine jar and poured himself a glass, and asked casually: "Brother Tai's surname?" ”

"Heavenly." Li Tiantu replied lightly.

"Isn't it, you're actually Yan Mengyu's man?" When Yun Mengfei first came to Jingshi, what he heard the most was that Yan Mengyu, the first beauty in Beijing, married Li Tiantu, the new commander of the Praetorian Guard, and this Li Tiantu was actually unknown before, which made Jingshi and the young Junjie who admired Yan Mengyu in the rivers and lakes grit their teeth, and they couldn't wait to kill him quickly. Of course, Yun Mengfei also admired Yan Mengyu a little, but he thought that he was just a little bit.

Li Tiantu suddenly felt an unspeakable pain in his heart, outsiders envied him for holding a beauty, but is this really the case? glanced at Yun Mengfei calmly, "Are you surprised?" If I say I regret marrying her now, would you believe me? ”

"Believe, I believe." For some reason, Yun Mengfei felt that there was endless sadness in the eyes of this man with a dazzling halo, it seemed that although he and Yan Mengyu were married, there seemed to be no harmony between the two, and it was also in response to some rumors in the rivers and lakes, Yan Mengyu and Nangong Huai had a lot of relationship.

It's just that I don't know if Yan Meiren knows that her man has been hit by the "Tianyang Qi". Seeing that Li Tiantu, who was seriously injured, could still drink spirits in the old king's head as if nothing had happened, Yun Mengfei was impressed in his heart, and suddenly put away the smile on his face, and said: "For the sake of you inviting me to drink, I can tell you that the 'Tianyang Qi' can only be solved by the Divine Snow Lotus King at the top of Kunlun." Kunlun Snow Lotus is rare now, and it is hard to find. The Divine Snow Lotus King has only existed in legends, and no one has been able to obtain it so far. ”

"I still want to thank you, but I don't understand this 'Tianyang Qi'."

Li Tiantu was quite surprised that Yun Mengfei could see the "Yang Qi" in his body, but now what he couldn't let go of was not himself, but the grace of knowing and the love between men and women with Yan Mengyu.

Yun Mengfei sighed, this is another man trapped by love. Isn't it the same for yourself? But he is much better than him, at least he is still alive, and this man will die if nothing else. Yun Mengfei was silent for a moment, "You are a good man. If you don't die this time, brother, you can consider taking a break from Yan Mengyu, and I will introduce my sister to you. Yun Mengfei has always spoken in a grin-chuckle, but this time he was extremely solemn.

Li Tiantu smiled faintly and said, "You are so beautiful, your sister should be very good!" He knew that he was going to die, so he didn't pay much attention to Yun Mengfei's words.

seemed to feel that Li Tiantu's state of mind was a little sad, Yun Mengfei didn't care about Li Tiantu's beauty, but just raised the wine bowl in his hand.

The two big bowls touched each other in an instant, and both of them drank it all, although they knew each other for the first time, they were like confidants who had been friends for many years, and everything was in a word.

"There are fewer than a thousand cups of wine for confidants, Brother Li, I am Jiangnan Yunmengfei. I hope to see you again in the future. Yun Mengfei took the lead in getting up and leaving.

Li Tiantu watched Yun Mengfei disappear into the night, and sighed slightly in his heart, Jiangnan's surname is Yun, and he has such an extraordinary bearing, he should leave and stay, what a temperament! can afford to put it down, he is indeed a character, should he have anything to do with Yun Tiancheng of the Tiancheng Sect.
