Chapter 044: Yushan Ancient City
In early winter, the weather slowly starts to get colder, but it is not yet at its coldest season.
Ruo Chunpei, Zhu Menglong, his entourage, guards, and Lifu, a total of about forty or fifty people, brought generous gifts, went to Longxikou to board the naval boat of the sailor against the Danfu water, and arrived at the Du clan in Yushuikou on the second day, and spent the night.
Hu'an Mountain has no direct relationship with the Du clan, because the head of Wanfeng Village, Guo Wuyuan, and the head of the Du clan are sons and daughters, if Chunpei passes through Wanfeng Village, Guo Wuyuan asks Ruo Chunpei to bring a few urns of dragon fragrant wine to the in-laws, this is of course an excuse, the diplomatic official Ruo Chunpei makes full use of this excuse, and the group is ceremoniously received by the Du clan.
On the second day, the sky was bright, and Hu'an Mountain and his party turned the mountain road into Yushui.
The destination of their trip was Yucheng, Yushan, where Yuhou lived, in the territory of Yushan Town, Pengshui County, where the salt spring of Funiu Mountain was located.
In the language of the local ethnic minorities (such as the Miao people), "Yu" means "salt", hence, Yushan, that is, Yanshan, Yucheng, that is, Yancheng.
I didn't have time to take a closer look at the scenery along the way, and the group arrived at Yuhou Mansion, which was already the afternoon of the next day.
Yucheng is lower than the sea in the Hu'an Mountain grassland, and there is the sun today, so Ruochunpei and his party feel like autumn weather.
Yuhou Mansion is undoubtedly the largest building complex of Wujiangba people, when Hu'an Palace was completed, stealing the limelight, the richest master in this area, naturally not to be left behind, expanding and decorating the mansion, luxury is second only to Jiangzhou Ba main palace. Because of the famous salt spring in its territory, the people of the time also called Yuhou Mansion "Salt Palace", or "Yugong".
Chunpei escorted the team of people and horses, and asked people to report, but no one came to recruit for a long time. Seeing that the Yu Mansion was majestic, Chun Pei smiled and said: "Childe, you look at the pair of big stone tigers in front of the Yuhou Mansion, it seems that the two of us are not very welcome. ”
After a long time, Yu Mansion Xiaqing Bagui came out, Shi Li smiled and said: "The two of you have been waiting for a long time, the sackcloth bag is filled with salt, and the Hou Ye is discussing important matters, and it is only over at this time, and it is not welcome." ”
Chunpei said with a smile: "The host is hospitable, and my party is a snail to the banquet, an uninvited guest, and the courtesy should be treated coldly." ”
Bagui is nearly thirty years old, with a refined temperament, and he said with a smile on his face: "Offended, offended! ”
Bagui led Chunpei and Menglong into Yuhou Mansion.
Deliver a gift list from someone and wait outside.
The two guests transferred into the deep mansion and arrived at the main hall, where the civil and military officials of the Yuhou Department had already arrived in place and stood on both sides.
Yu Hou wears a bronze mask with protruding eyes, a high nose, and a square face.
Ruo Chunpei chuckled at Menglong and said, "Look what kind of weirdness he pretends to be." ”
After saluting, Yu Hou did not let him take a seat.
Menglong saw that there was a person standing on the left and right behind Yu Hou, one person on the left, about thirty years old, medium to tall figure, Zhou Zheng appearance, although he was dressed as a warrior, his face was relatively gentle, and his temperament was not bad, guessed that it was Yu Hou's eldest son Ba Sheng;
Chun Pei was about to speak, but Yu Hou opened his mouth and became angry: "Come on! Prepare a golden knife, an earthen bowl, an earthen plate, and an urn of fine wine! Then some of the best salt! Hmph, the most important thing I lack here is salt!"
Chun Pei gave another salute and said with a smile: "I eat a thousand meals in the morning food, and it's still early to feed, why should Master Hou be so polite!"
Yu Hou sneered: "Of course I won't be polite to the appetizers sent to the door!
Menglong secretly thought, is he going to eat the two of us.
At this time, Yu Hou took off his mask, revealing his true face, Chun Pei saw that he was about fifty years old, with a solid figure, a red face, a majestic appearance, and a brocade lion skin on the plate, and secretly thought: "This lion skin is rare in the local area, and it must be taken from the outside."
Seeing Yu Hou's face again, Ruo Chunpei secretly thought: "This person is hard or soft, I will provoke him."
Just as he was thinking about it, Chun Pei only heard one person shouting loudly: "Thank you Yu Hou for avenging the villain!" Yu Hou, Hu'an Palace has liked to drink wine by ear since he was a child, but in fact, wine under his tongue tastes even better! If Chun Pei eats all by mixing rice with his tongue, his tongue must be a rare appetizer. ”
It was the pedestrian who had lost one ear in Hu'an Mountain, and his long hair covered both of his ears.
Yu Hou smiled and said, "It's exactly what I want." ”
Chun Pei said with a smile: "This is a bad word, there is a pair of ears, there is one less and there is one, you can listen to and believe partially, there is only one tongue, if you don't know the preciousness of barberry mountain salt, how to make it?"
Yu Hou snorted and said, "I heard that you are good at storytelling, if you tell stories again today, cut off three inches of tongue to drink!"
Chunpei said with a smile: "Yushui is a river, why are you afraid of a lobbyist? Today I am not here to tell a story, but to reason!"
Yu Hou snorted "haha", stretched his waist, and sneered: "Then I will listen to your reasoning, if it doesn't make sense, your incorruptible tongue will come to my stomach to tell jokes in the future! The two of you are here to deliver tea and fruit, what advice do you have? Or do you have any tricks in Hu'anshan?"
Chunpei said with a smile: "Yuhou's words are not beautiful! Is it beautiful, the water in the township, whether it is close or not, the hometown people, the two tribes of Yubo and Yuhou, one with clothes and water, live next to each other, and they both belong to the bus and one country, this is a family, how can there be two families?"
The leader on the left side of the hall said: "You are not welcome, as a family: Pangu Lake originally belonged to our department, and Wuzi borrowed it by force; Huangcaowan and Tho's Village, which belonged to my department, and Wuzi also borrowed it; and the bright moon in the sky, if your master can reach it, he must also be delusional." Starting from the light, generation after generation, the earthen jars are stumbling and climbing, and there is no good goods!"
Ruo Chunpei saw that this person was Ba Zeng, the secretary of the Yuhou Department, who had met in the capital, and said: "As the saying goes: beating people does not slap their face, and scolding people does not scold their ancestors." What is the reason why the doctor scolded my master ancestor for several generations today? What's more, the ancestors of the five clans, Wuluo Zhongli Shanchi, Hei Erxueba, Zheng, Xiang, Fang, and Fan, are all one and enter the salt water together.
Ba Zeng's face is red and his ears are red.
The person on the right, about twenty-seven or eighteen years old, heroic and majestic, is the Yuhou general Ba Kai, the third ranked warrior of the Yuhou department, he has a lot of knowledge, and his voice is grandiose: "Forceful resignation! Then I ask if the pedestrian: the arms are thick, or the thighs are thick?"
Chun Pei thought that this person was a martial artist, so as soon as he came up, he talked about the strength and weakness first, and said with a smile: "It depends on what kind of thigh it is, or whether there is a diseased thigh." ”
Ba Kai smiled back and said, "This is reasonable, if the sick leg of the High Priest of Hu'an Mountain is compared to my arm, it is naturally his sick leg that is thinner. ”
Several people in the Yu Mansion laughed.
Chunpei Zhengse said: "How dare you blaspheme the Shaman of Hu'anshan! You are not afraid of thunder slashing the Salt Palace!"
Ba Kai said: "This is what you mean if you are a pedestrian. ”
Chun Pei thought to himself, it seems that he is not just a martial artist, no wonder he wants to come to participate in this war of words, and said: "If I say that the legs of the praying mantis are not as thick as the arms, will the general think that I am referring to Yu Hou?"
Ba Kai smiled embarrassedly: "Lip work is a trick for carving insects, don't care about losing." Let's ask for a major matter: The Chu people have taken salt water, and their will is in Yushui, if the pedestrians and the Chu army enter Yushui, what is the best way to break the enemy?"
Ruo Chunpei responded generously: "The top and bottom are united, the city is united, the soldiers are coming, the water is covering, that's all." ”
Ba Kai smirked: "Big and empty, it seems that I really don't know how to fight." ”
A good opportunity for revenge, not to mention sending it to the door, the one-eared pedestrian who lost one ear in Hu'an Mountain did not wait for Ruo Chunpei to respond to Ba Kai's words, and couldn't help but be anxious: "Then if you say pedestrians, who is the big among the five clans of the two black and red caves?"
Chunpei said: "Naturally, it was Ba Shi, and he won the test that year. ”
The one-eared pedestrian sneered, "Just remember." In the past dynasties, the first Ba clan received salt water, built Yancheng, entered Yushui, got Tongyi, and Dujiangzhou, and only then did the bus have a country, and the rest of the clans had a good shade under the big tree. And Hu'an Mountain, only one earl, no salt and no pill, weak finances, but repeatedly quarrel with Yushui, bird eggs touch stones, do not measure their own strength, what is the reason?"
Chun Pei said: "Jiang Taigong once said: The world is not the world of one person, but the world of the world. Ba salt is not the salt of one person and one clan, but the salt of all Ba people! How dare you think you are big because you are sitting on a salt spring! With such a child's knowledge, please don't say anything more and bring shame on yourself!"
The one-eared pedestrian was still thinking, and Chun Pei was unforgiving, and continued: "As the saying goes: one fence has three piles. Not to mention the founding of the country, there is no four clans that cannot succeed, even after success, without the help of the four clans, how can it last long!
"Haven't you heard that when Shang Tang Dynasty was in the summer, when King Wu of Zhou was in the war, everyone helped to make immortal achievements, and in later generations, arrogant and lascivious, all five poisons, the wall fell down and everyone pushed it, how can there be a world for thousands of years!
"If you want long-term peace and stability, you need to be in harmony with the clans inside and the neighbors outside, how can a country be established by power? There is much help for the righteous, but little help for the unjust, and the human heart is like this!"
At this time, Yu Hou saw the people from the Yu clan, remembered that the past dynasties had disputed over the territory, and he was unhappy, and when he saw that his people were at a disadvantage, he said angrily: "Right and wrong, there is a public opinion!
Chun Pei raised his left hand and said, "Since the decline of the Zhou royal family, there has been no righteous war in the world. Even within each country, how many righteous wars are there? Let's just say that this water and salt spring was also taken by the five clans from the hands of other clans, and now it is in the hands of the Ba clan alone, what is the axiom of it?
"Now, the great enemy is at present, people are fighting, just as the pockmarks are fighting, all the people are mobilized, the chimney of the thatched house is unanimous to the outside world, but Yu Hou is avoiding the weight of righteousness with selfish interests, and he is not ashamed of people of insight!
Several people in Yuhou Mansion were dumb.
