Chapter 104: Teahouse Anecdotes
What's more, he also released the news that the boss of the Moxue Building and the Yuexin girl were friends, which immediately caused a boiling in the city, and a large number of curiosity hunters were guarding the door of the Moxue Building every day, waiting for the announcement of the start of business at any time and rushed in to find out what was going on.
Half a month has passed, but yesterday, a notice was suddenly posted at the door of Moxue Building, which immediately caused an uproar.
In a teahouse in the city, the storyteller on the stage was talking about the great battle between Tianshuo and the Western Zhou Dynasty in the border state a few months ago, and the people in the audience listened attentively.
"Since the Western Zhou Dynasty years ago, he has repeatedly crossed the border of our country, and he has not been less harmful to the people of our dynasty in the border states, and the saint was very angry when he learned about it, and immediately sent the hussar general to lead the troops to the battle......"
Speaking of this hussar general, the audience immediately became interested one by one, and when they talked about the fierce battle between the two armies, they applauded, which inevitably made Yun Xiaoshuang, who was sitting in the wing room on the second floor of the teahouse, also a little interested in this famous general.
"Since His Majesty succeeded to the throne today, the people have lived a prosperous life and the frontier is also very stable, how can there be a war all of a sudden?"
Although Yun Xiaoshuang didn't care about the government, she naturally remembered it when she heard Zhao Mocheng mention it occasionally.
Hearing this, Yuexin, who was sitting opposite Yun Xiaoshuang, couldn't help but smile, picked up the teacup and took a sip before saying: "After Your Majesty succeeded to the throne, he worked hard to make the country prosperous and hired, and the style of this court was much better than when the first emperor was in power." ”
After the death of the previous emperor of Tianshuo, he was succeeded by his fourth son, and the new emperor succeeded to the throne just past the weak crown, but within a year he purged the court, and the means were resolute to remove a number of ministers who only ate idle meals and did not do practical things, and hired new people with real talents and hard work.
At that time, the new emperor's move naturally caused dissatisfaction among many old ministers, and even the queen mother had a lot of complaints, but he insisted on implementing the new policy above the court, but in three or five years, the entire Tianshuo country has taken on a new look.
And this hussar general was one of the new ministers who was used at the beginning, and now he has already become the emperor's confidant.
"That Western Zhou was originally a belligerent clan, if it weren't for their provocation first, it wouldn't have caused this war, but after this battle, that Western Zhou wouldn't dare to easily offend me again."
When it came to this hussar general, Yuexin instantly turned into a starry eye, obviously full of admiration for this person, Yun Xiaoshuang couldn't help but raise her eyebrows when she saw this.
After the last incident with Master Zhang, she had more contacts with Yuexin, firstly, to inquire about the things in the city from her, and secondly, because the two did get along well and became friends, and it was precisely because of this that Yun Xiaoshuang also knew very well how arrogant Yuexin was, and the person who could make her admire so much must be extraordinary.
"The war in the Western Zhou Dynasty together, His Majesty sent the hussar general to lead the troops, and immediately worked out a thorough battle plan when he arrived at the battlefield, and completely defeated the enemy army in less than half a month.
"There are many girls who are in the prime of their lives and fall in love at first sight after seeing their demeanor, and the nobles who have not yet left the cabinet are vying for the general to be their son-in-law, and it is said that the greetings received by the general's mansion during this year add up to one floor and ......"
The storyteller at the bottom spoke in a hoarse voice, and only after pouring a sip of tea did he talk about the heroic deeds of the hussar general, and then mentioned that the daughter of an adult family was looking for death and life at home every day for this general, which was also a romantic affair.
"Since this general is so talented, why hasn't he gotten married until now, isn't there some hidden disease?"
Yun Xiaoshuang suddenly became interested, the fire of gossip in her eyes was burning, according to the people below, this general was also an old leftover man, but at this age, not only did he not marry a wife, but he didn't even have a concubine, it was really puzzling, she really couldn't think of any other reason besides her own body for some unspeakable reasons.
"Go, go, what nonsense!" Yuexin glared at Yun Xiaoshuang with disgust, "It's not that the general doesn't marry a wife, but because he has a marriage contract for a long time." ”
It seems that Yuexin is really unusual to this hussar general, and even people know this kind of thing when they were young, and Yun Xiaoshuang suddenly looked at her strangely.
"He had a marriage contract for a long time, but later his parents passed away in the middle of the family, and the whereabouts of the girl who had a marriage contract with him were unknown, which delayed his life's events." Yuexin sighed, "But it is precisely because of this that he will devote himself to the army, and with his good martial arts and extraordinary courage, he has made a lot of military achievements, so that he has become the famous hussar general today." ”
"This general used to have a miserable life, and his family was in the middle of the road, but he also encountered the death of his parents and the running away of his fiancée, which is really pitiful."
Yun Xiaoshuang also began to sympathize with the hussar general, and her tone couldn't help but be more melancholy: "But after all, he can be regarded as bitter now." ”
How can a good person say that he is gone?
After listening to Yuexin's words just now, Yun Xiaoshuang naturally thought that the reason why the general's fiancée was missing was nothing more than that he felt that his family was untrustworthy and deliberately hiding.
However, when Yun Xiaoshuang said her thoughts, she was strongly rejected by Yuexin.
"Who are you to marry the general? How can you say that you can run! Yuexin said disdainfully, "That's the granddaughter of a scholar of the Hanlin Academy." ”
Even Yun Xiaoshuang, who doesn't care about the affairs of the government at all, has heard of the deeds of this Lin scholar, this is really a famous person, it is said that he was the teacher of the saint today, he is rich and proficient in the way of Confucius and Mencius, and his protégés are all over the world.
Even the actions of the emperor after he ascended the throne to suppress the court had a lot to do with this Lin University scholar.
"The granddaughter of the Fellow of the Forestry University was stolen from her home shortly after she was born, and her whereabouts are still unknown." Yuexin showed a trace of sadness on her face, "In the past ten years, everyone has been looking for it but they have found nothing, even the scholar's family is becoming more and more disheartened, but the general is obsessed and refuses to give up. ”
If it weren't for this, the hero in her heart would not still be alone today.
"In this way, this general is also a person of great affection."
After all this time, it is difficult to argue whether the granddaughter of the scholar is still alive, and how easy is it to find it? It may be easy to persist for a while, but it is admirable to persist for decades.
Yun Xiaoshuang suddenly had some respect for this hussar general.
Somehow, the storyteller downstairs suddenly mentioned Moxue Lou after talking about the exploits of the hussar general and the jokes made by several young ladies in Beijing who were jealous of him, which immediately made Yun Xiaoshuang upstairs his ears and listened carefully.
"Do you know that a new restaurant called Moxue Lou has recently opened in the east of the city?"
As soon as the storyteller said this, the audience began to talk about it, and it was even more enthusiastic than when the hussar general had been mentioned before.
"How can I not know, I have passed by the Moxue Building several times, and it looks very strange."
A Xiucai in a green shirt said with a strange expression: "The gate of the Moxue Building is always hidden, and there is not even a guy inside, which looks really scary." ”
As soon as these words came out, some unknown people at the bottom suddenly gasped.
And Yun Xiaoshuang couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when she heard this, she dared to fall in love with this person's mouth, and her Moxue Building turned out to be a ghost building?
Yuexin snickered on the side.
"I don't know the same thing."
Another man in an ink-colored robe got up and stood on a chair and said to everyone: "This Moxue Building looks like a restaurant on the surface, but it is actually a place used by an adult in the city to hide the beauty of the golden house, but before the beautiful woman can live in, he was caught by the wife of the main house, and it is useless for a while, so it will become an empty building." ”
"Flutter!"
Hearing this person's words, Yuexin couldn't help but laugh, but Yun Xiaoshuang's face had already turned red.
Where is this, the more it spreads, the more nonsense it gets!
At this time, Yun Xiaoshuang can be said to have seen what it means to spread falsehood.
"Don't look bitter and hateful, isn't this the effect you want?"
Yuexin joked that in order to promote Mo Xue Lou Yun Xiaoshuang also deliberately let herself act in a few plays, and even most of the rumors about Mo Xue Lou in the city were sent by Yun Xiaoshuang herself, but I'm afraid even she didn't expect this rumor to be outrageous to this point.
"What I want is a positive effect!"
Yun Xiaoshuang glared at Yuexin, but her tone was a little aggrieved: "If these people really regard Moxue Building as a ghost building, then how can I do business in the future?!" ”
Yuexin knew that she was talking angry and was not annoyed, but the smile on the corner of her mouth was even worse.
"Then it seems that the Mo Xue Building that the old man knows is different from everyone here."
As soon as the storyteller said this, the people below fell silent, but he was not in a hurry to speak, but took a sip of tea without hurrying, which suddenly made the people below fall into anxiety.
"Old Xu, don't sell it, tell us quickly."
"That's it, you know what you know."
Under the repeated urging of everyone, the storyteller known as Xu Lao cleared his throat and spoke again: "It is said that the boss of Moxue Mansion is surnamed Yun, and the Yuexin girl of Mingyue Building is a close friend in the boudoir. ”
Seeing the surprised expressions on everyone's faces, a satisfied smile suddenly appeared on Old Xu's face.
"How is this possible, what kind of character is the girl of the moon heart, how can she be related to an unknown small restaurant?"
"Yes."
"That's nonsense!"
Several followers of the moon heart below were all disdainful, and they all firmly believed that a strange place like Mo Xue Lou would never have anything to do with their goddess.
