Chapter 56: Poisoned Wine

In the car, Zeng Weiye said to Zimu: "Two masters, my father is going to cook for everyone tomorrow, and I will personally pick you up when the time comes." ”

Zimu said: "Your father and son are too polite, tomorrow we will walk around the street, so there is no need to trouble." ”

Zeng Weiye said earnestly: "Second Master, you go around in the morning, and come to the house for dinner in the afternoon, my father has already arranged it, don't shirk, I have received a lot of guidance from you, and it's okay to have a meal." "Zeng Weiye told the truth, his high-level swordsmanship was taught by Zimu, and of course he also paid a lot of silver ingots.

Zimu smiled happily and said, "Okay, since it's so gracious, I'll bother you tomorrow afternoon." ”

"I'm still not going, get ready to rest, and leave me alone tomorrow. Ziyan excused.

Zeng Weiye said: "My father has already asked someone to buy a car for you, and it will not be so hard to travel in the future, and my father will definitely blame me if you don't go." ”

Zimu also persuaded: "Let's all go, you don't go alone, the governor still thinks you're angry, let's go." ”

Ziyan had no choice but to agree.

Zeng Weiye was relieved: "Two masters, there are a few people who didn't arrive today, I feel ashamed, I know that I have offended many people unconsciously before, so it is normal for others not to give me face." But tomorrow is the send-off wine, I hope the two masters will help, ask everyone to go, let me entertain well, and it will be convenient to rebuild the relationship with everyone, Qingwei and I can't invite me, I don't know if the two masters can help. Zeng Wei was looking forward to it.

Zimu nodded and said, "Okay, it's rare for you to have a piece of your mind, so I will definitely invite everyone tomorrow." ”

Zeng Weiye smiled with satisfaction, and turned his head to prepare to talk to Ziqing and Zijun.

Zijun wanted to talk to him, opened the curtain of the car, and looked at the street, Ziqing also followed, although it was night, the street was still brilliantly lit, tourists were weaving, the shops were full of goods, the state city was a big city, prosperous and lively.

Zeng Weiye naturally didn't want to do this, and found a reason to answer: "This state city is very lively, if you don't stop and walk again, it is rare for everyone to come once." ”

Zijun said excitedly: "Look at my sister, where are there any cotton clothes that are sold, the style is good." Zijun ignored Zeng Weiye's words as wind in his ears.

Ziqing listened to Zeng Weiye's words, didn't answer well, and turned around and said, "No need, let's go back quickly." ”

Zimu also saw the shop selling clothes and said: "The weather is also cold, let's go see if there are suitable clothes, and we should add a cotton coat in winter." ”

Several people got out of the car, Zeng Weiye bought a cotton coat for Zimu and Ziyan each, and he also bought one, cultivators don't wear cotton clothes and don't feel cold, but it takes more true qi, true qi is transformed from aura, of course, it is much more comfortable to wear in winter than not to wear it. Zeng Weiye finally bought one for Ziqing's two sisters, Ziqing wanted to pay for himself, he didn't want to owe others favors, so he reached out and took out the money, but it turned out that all the money was given to his uncle, and he was penniless.

Ziqing said with a wit: "We don't want this clothes." ”

Zeng Weiye insisted on buying it, but Ziqing had already gotten into the car, so he had to pick up the car himself: "I've already bought it, you can wear it." ”。

After getting into the car, Zijun took it with a big grin, and said, "Zeng Gongzi, then thank you first." ”

Ziqing said: "I don't want to" insisted on not accepting it and threw it in the car.

When they arrived at the residence, several people got out of the car, and when they arrived outside the lobby of the hotel, the two sisters Ziqing were ready to go back to their residence, Zeng Weiye picked up the clothes and chased after them, saying: "I have already bought it, it's a pity to lose it, just let me give you a small gift." ”

Ziqing walked faster and faster, and said indifferently: "I don't want it!" His expression was full of persistence.

Zeng Weiye took a few steps in front of Ziqing and said, "Senior sister, don't you give any face?"

Provoked the others to look sideways.

Zimu's face was gloomy and cold, as if it was winter weather: "He has a good heart, you can accept it, there are so many people, others are watching." ”

Ziqing had no choice but to take it.

Qingwei and Nangong Qi and a few others went to the street to wander back, Qingwei saw that the weather was getting colder, bought a cotton coat for Ziqing, and when he arrived at the hotel, Qingwei happened to see Zeng Weiye put a piece of clothing on Ziqing's body, and a difficult and clear emotion came to his heart, and his hand was unconsciously released, and the clothes fell to the ground.

watched from afar Zeng Weiye and Na Ziqing go upstairs side by side.

Yue Ming reminded with a smile: "The thing has fallen." ”

Qingwei looked at the clothes on the ground, which were originally given to Ziqing, but now he didn't need it, he shook his head bitterly and said, "Don't want it"

Lonely and lonely, I went back to the dormitory.

Zeng Weiye returned to Zeng's Mansion and was so excited that he could sleep, and said to Gui Tou and a few others: "Today I invited you to go to the Qinglou to let you know the taste of women." ”

The five people were also excited when they heard it, and the six people took the carriage to the Qinglou, and the old bustard of the Qinglou greeted them out, and welcomed a few people in.

In the afternoon of the next day, Zimu gathered everyone and said, "Today is Governor Zeng's trip for us, no one can be missing, everyone goes." ”

Qingwei's expression was gloomy: "Second uncle, I won't go, ask for a leave." Qingwei was not interested in that Zeng Weiye, and he didn't want to go at all, but when he saw last night's scene, he was even more depressed and depressed.

Zimu said with a flat face: "No, no, we are a unified group, we are not allowed to act privately today, otherwise the governor will think that he will not give him face, not only today, in the future, I will stipulate that everyone must listen to my orders wherever they go, and if they don't listen, I don't care anymore, don't follow us, go back to Nantianyue and wait for processing." ”

Ziyan gently persuaded: "Qingwei, it's just a meal, go, everyone goes." ”

His arms couldn't twist his thighs, what else could Qingwei say, so he had to reluctantly go.

The layout of the hall is the same as yesterday, and the sitting position is about the same as yesterday, except that there are a few more people. The situation was similar, with servants shuttling back and forth, serving food and wine.

Zeng Er smiled and said to Zimu: "Today, the Taoist is going to have fun, this wine is the smoke and rain aging that I specially sent someone to the restaurant to buy, and this wine has been stored in the cellar for decades." ”

Zimu got up with a grateful face: "Let the governor break the bank, so gracious, I don't know how to repay it!"

Zeng Er smiled: "The Taoist has come to me, and I feel honored to be close to the friendship of the landlord." He shouted to the people present: "Everyone has picked up the wine and done it." ”

Everyone raised their wine glasses, Qingwei was no exception, holding the wine glasses, Zeng Weiye was not far from him, staring at Qingwei's hand. Qingwei felt a sense of danger, but he couldn't say clearly, could there be a problem with this wine, Qingwei had studied alchemy for a while, and he still knew a little bit about the identification of medicinal properties, smelled it, and carefully distinguished, it was really poisonous wine, and he didn't drink it at the moment, and put it on his lips, and put it down again.

Zeng Weiye was happy when he saw him holding up his wine glass, who knew that he put it down again, and he was extremely disappointed.

One person, one table, everyone dried up the wine, only Qingwei didn't drink it, if there was no Zeng Weiye staring, the matter would be settled, but Zeng Weiye finally got the poison, it was a pity to waste it like this, and he also used Zimu, missed this opportunity, and it would be difficult to kill him later.

Immediately picked up the wine glass and walked in front of Qingwei, trying to squeeze out a smile: "Senior brother, everyone has done this, and you are the only one who hasn't drunk it, which is not good." "It is said that Qingwei is two years older than Zeng Weiye, but Zeng Weiye started late, so for the sake of poison, he temporarily called him a senior brother.

Zeng Weiye's speech attracted everyone's attention.

Qing Wei guessed when he saw him coming, this is most likely Zeng Weiye's ghost, if he didn't know that it was poison, he would have drunk it earlier, and he would have been a fool to know that it was poison and drunk, but he didn't poke him for the time being, and watched what he played, and said calmly: "I don't drink alcohol myself, or I won't drink this wine." ”

Zeng Weiye said with a smile: "Hehe, if you want to say that cultivators can't drink, I'm afraid no one will believe it, come and I will respect you, do it first." Zeng Weiye took the wine glass first, and Qingwei didn't move: "I didn't agree, who told you to do it yourself." ”

Zeng Weiye was a little crying and laughing, and said: "It seems that my face is still small." ”

Zeng Er saw it, and saw that his son respected this senior brother, but this senior brother actually didn't give him face, left his seat, took a glass of wine, and personally went to Qingwei, and said with a smile: "This little brother, Zeng Weiye may have done a lot of things inconsiderate before, I am here to accompany the ceremony, I hope you will forgive him for his recklessness, come and bring up the wine, and the old man will give you a glass." ”

If he speaks ill of each other, Qingwei will definitely be-for-tat, no matter what governor you are, the emperor will not give him face, but seeing his smiling face, he is embarrassed to get angry, seeing that this is also Zeng Weiye's ghost, and it has nothing to do with his father, after all, it is his family, and Nan Tianyue's party, he doesn't want to turn his face with him, so he has to pick up the wine glass, then Zeng Er did it first, the wine glass turned out, and the wine glass was empty.

Zimu sat down opposite him, his expression was majestic, and he said in a deep voice: "Governor toast, you have such a big face, don't hurry up and drink it." ”

Qingwei had to pick up the wine glass, but this was a poisonous wine, weighing a thousand catties, slowly raised, his hand trembled violently, and he didn't know whether it was nervous or deliberate, the wine glass actually fell from his hand, and the glass fell on the stone ground and fell apart.

Zeng Er's face did not change: "Another glass of wine." "The officials have already cultivated a picture of joy and anger.

Zeng Weiye ran away, personally took the wine glass, lifted the wine jug, filled it again, handed it to Qingwei, and said with a smile: "Don't drop it again"

Qingwei felt the danger again, this is the unique feeling after he cultivated the Supreme Exercises, there is a problem with this wine, you can't drink it, since this is the case, then don't blame me, and said coldly: "There is a problem with this wine"

When Zimu heard this, he was immediately angry, and said, "Don't talk nonsense!" and stood up in his seat, with an angry face.

Zeng Weiye said secretly, this kid is like a ghost, it seems that he has seen through it, how did this kid see through it? But this is not a problem to consider now.

Qingwei said to Zeng Weiye: "Otherwise, you can drink this glass of wine for me, junior brother!" Qingwei secretly said to let you eat the consequences.

Zeng Weiye took it and said: "Suspicious, seeing that I drank it, I drank the wine into my stomach as soon as I raised my neck." After drinking, he said, "Well, I've drunk everything." After he drank it, Qingwei secretly said that he felt wrong, no, his feelings could be wrong, but he had studied the pill for a few days, although he couldn't accurately say what poison it was, he could still distinguish whether it was poisonous or not.

Qing Wei immediately said: "We will ask the pharmacist to identify the wine in the jug." ”

Zeng Weiye smashed the wine jug to the ground in anger, and said sharply: "You said that the wine is poisonous, everyone is fine if you drink it, I drank it myself in front of you, and I am fine, just your life is expensive, since you look down on us, it's just that." In a fit of rage, he turned and went into the back room.

In this way, Qingwei seems to be an unreasonable person.

Zeng Er also returned to his seat unhappily, and the atmosphere was very awkward.

Zimu walked over and pointed at Qing Wei and said, "Uneducated boy, go back to Nantianyue and punish you." Then he went back to Zeng Er, picked up the wine and said, "I have no way to educate my disciples, so I ask for three glasses of wine, how about it?"

Ziyan also said: "Qingwei, how can you be like this, I will apologize to you." ”

Qingwei was also angry, and he dared to murder himself and give him any face, but he didn't move after hearing it.

Zeng Er waved his hand and said: "Just drink as much as you want, everyone is free and not reluctant." With a word, his expression was as usual, and he said to the people behind him: "Singing and dancing." ”

A team of singers and dancers came up one after another, with long sleeves fluttering, singing and dancing

Everyone was fascinated, and Ziqing was no exception, but suddenly he caught a glimpse of a man with a scar on his forehead, a scar to the left and to the right, until above the bridge of his nose, staring at the dancing girl in the pool, this person was seeing God, Ziqing's heart was shocked.

At the end of the song, everyone said goodbye and went out, if there was no Qingwei, it would be very satisfying.
