Chapter 13: The First Sight of Menggong
Ye Ziyi stood by the fire with her hands in her hands, thinking about how to deal with that Langya Thirteen Lang's side, she went down the mountain to do business with people this time, she didn't want to be in the limelight, but now that she is here, she can't avoid it.
After a while, a few people came from the direction of the convoy in front, led by a slightly chubby middle-aged man dressed in brocade, this person had a long face and a long beard, and he smiled first when he saw people, but he was a real qualified merchant.
"It's really Wang's fault to be sloppy and lazy, wronged the gentleman!" The man came to Ye Ziyi's side as he spoke, arched his hand slightly at her, looked at her and smiled. "The gentleman is really sluggish when he walks with Wang, and please give him a name. ”
"Don't dare to be, people from the mountains and wilderness, this name is not enough to worry about. Ye Ziyi returned the salute, and her tone was polite and distant.
"The gentleman is too humble, and he is drinking a banquet with others, if the gentleman does not give up, please also have a drink with Wang. The businessman surnamed Wang saw that Ye Ziyi's attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, but he was a little less contemptuous.
"So, please. Ye Ziyi saw that he couldn't hide, but he was also generous, and followed the man three times to ask three times, so he followed him and walked towards the front of the convoy.
Several people walked to a gentle slope, and the merchant surnamed Wang pointed to the slope and said with a smile. "A few Lang Jun are talking with Meng Gongqing, but it's a pity that they haven't entered the capital, and there is no music and dance to cheer up, such a good day, it's a pity!"
"The five tones of the ancients, but they make people deaf, here you can look at the sun and the moon, elegant talk, there are also sages, what are the regrets?" Ye Ziyi has also learned a lot of these elegant routines in the past two years, and it is enough to deal with a somewhat cultural businessman like Wang.
"The gentleman is really talented, hahahaha, when you get to Jiankang, how about a certain gentleman to be a diner in the prince's mansion?" Wang said, letting Ye Ziyi in front of him, but he was even more polite.
Ye Ziyi was polite to Na Wang again, and the two of them went up the hill arm in arm, and came to several young men in Chinese clothes and an old man with a white beard.
When the young men saw Ye Ziyi, they just bowed slightly, and the white-haired old man also looked at Ye Ziyi, and when they saw her so young, they couldn't help but smile slightly.
Seeing that the old man's face had changed, Wang hurriedly stepped forward, shook it to the ground, saluted several other people, and sat down in a vacant seat on the right side.
"Where is Xiao Lang from? What method did he use? How did you calculate the expenses of this caravan for half a year in an instant?" The old man's question was polite, but Ye Ziyi didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly stood up and shook it.
"The kid's family lives in the mountains, and he travels for the first time, this method is unique in the family, and he doesn't dare to tell him without the permission of the elders in the family. Ye Ziyi's answer was very clever, and this excuse also made the old man have nothing to say, at the moment, the old man was even more unhappy, turned his face sideways, and ignored Ye Ziyi.
"Boy, this is the Duke of Xia, but the Great Confucian of Chu Realm, you are young and don't know about the world, don't be rude. The young man sitting next to Meng Gong couldn't help frowning when he saw that Ye Ziyi refused to say anything, and refused so simply.
"Forgive me, my ancestors are people who live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and their descendants are not allowed to reveal their life experience when they are born, and they hope that the public will be perfect. "Ye Ziyi's life experience, it's really hard to say, anyway, it's just not to say it.
"Since the ancestors have a fate, I don't embarrass you, let me ask you, your algorithm is really so exquisite? Can you calculate the accounts exactly in the middle of a breath? I heard that you are from Yuzhang, where there is a Qu Gong on Donghua Mountain, do you know it?"
"The kid has also heard of Qu Gong's name, but the kid is stupid, and he didn't have the opportunity to see Qu Gong, and he couldn't worship Qu Gong. Seeing that this Meng Gong looked aggressive, although Ye Ziyi was angry, she didn't dare to report to the teacher, and now listening to this Meng Gong's tone, it seemed that she didn't deal with her father-like teacher, so she simply didn't want to say it.
"Oh, I said it was Qu Xuan's handwriting, but it wasn't. It's really ridiculous to think that Qu Xuan has been in seclusion for ten years and has achieved nothing!" As soon as Meng Gong's words came out, not to mention Ye Ziyi, even some of those young people had a bad face.
"Meng Gong, Zi Mu retired. The man in blue who spoke was sitting at the bottom left, and as he spoke, he stood up first, bowed to Meng Gong, turned around and strode away.
Looking at the young man in the long robe with wide sleeves in the moonlight, Ye Ziyi couldn't help but feel a little good for this guy with a frank temperament, this old man, someone has to scold him.
"Hmph! The boy is really rude!" Meng Gong watched the young man walk away, and he was also angry, stood up, flicked the sleeves of his robe, and walked away angrily.
The rest of the people went to chase the blue-clothed young man, and some went to chase Meng Gong, and in the blink of an eye, on the empty gentle slope, only the merchant Wang and Ye Ziyi were left.
Looking at Wang's sighing appearance, Ye Ziyi was secretly amused, but she didn't expect that Wang turned his head and complained to her. "It's just a background, Xiaolang told the truth, why bother to offend Meng Gong? Meng Gong went to Jiankang to be a distinguished guest in Gongzi's mansion, Xiaolang, I was going to send you to Gongzi's mansion as a diner, with Menggong's layer, I'm afraid it won't be. ”
Speaking of which, Wang is still afraid that she will offend the old man and affect him, right? Gongzicheng, that person, she doesn't want to see it.
Ye Ziyi secretly rolled her eyes and waved towards Na Wang. "The people of the mountains and wilderness, who don't know whether they are guilty or not, are virtuous and virtuous, and I don't think they will blame the boy, the prince, and he has retired. ”
Ye Ziyi was too lazy to entangle with this Wang, saluted, and didn't wait for Wang to answer, turned around and walked towards his donkey cart.
I don't know if it's because the atmosphere in ancient times is too clean, the moonlight in this starry sky is exceptionally clear, the moon in the dark blue night sky is getting fuller, the bright and soft light is like a veil, walking in the grass and forest, the autumn wind whispers, the forest is fresh, and there is a different artistic conception.
Walking back to the donkey cart, Yong had already lit a small fire, and when he saw Ye Ziyi coming, he showed a smile on his face and beckoned her to his side.
"Why, haven't you talked to that Wang?" Yong added a few dry branches to the fire, and the light of the fire slowly brightened, shining on his face, reflecting a warm color.
"It's just a snob, it's okay not to be offended, what's there to talk about. Ye Ziyi pursed her lips nonchalantly, rubbed her stomach, and smacked her lips. "It's a pity that I came back too quickly and haven't eaten the meat yet. ”
"Hahaha, you guy, really, there is jerky brought by Wang 11 in the car, you go and get it and eat it. Yong was amused by Ye Ziyi, patted her on the back, and pointed to the donkey cart.
"Really da, don't say it sooner!" Ye Ziyi responded crisply, just stood up, squatted down and looked at Yong and asked curiously. "Who is Wang Shiyi?"
"It's the side branch you just met that Langya clan. Yong smiled and patted Ye Ziyi's head and said. "Let's go. ”
"Oh, it's him. Ye Ziyi pursed her lips, jumped up from the ground and trotted to the donkey cart.
Yong laughed when he saw it, which caused many people in the camp to look towards him.
