Qiu Weng faced Liu Xun and said respectfully: "Huang Gongzi is extremely talented, and the four words 'Pingding Kiln' make our house shine." The old man has the courage to beg Huang Gongzi to give him Mobao. ”

Liu Xun smiled: "Qiu Weng doesn't have to be polite. After that, he dipped his pen in ink, and wrote the four seal characters of "Pingding Kiln" on the wooden slip.

Everyone gathered around and admired, and Qiu Weng couldn't help but be overjoyed and shouted, "Get out of the way." "Carefully put the wooden shut-away.

Qiu Weng glanced at the timer leaky pot, and when it was time to Shen, he said: "Huang Gongzi, Shi Gongzi, let's have some meals in our house." Without waiting for Shi Gao to reply, he ordered Qiu Qian to buy food and drinks.

Shi Gao stood up and wanted to stop him, but Liu Xun smiled and said: "Qiu Weng is gracious, but he is disrespectful." ”

Qiu Qian said: "That's it." As he spoke, he pushed Shi Gao back to his seat.

Qiu Qian went out to buy wine and food, and everyone sat and gossiped. Qiu Weng said some interesting stories about going south and north, and the shopkeeper Cao talked about the past at the border gate, and Liu Xun listened to it with relish.

It didn't take long for Qiu Qian to lead a few guys from the wine shop and restaurant to bring wine and food. Shi Gao took a pair of chopsticks and wanted to try them for Liu Xun, Liu Xun frowned and glared at him, and then he put it down.

Everyone drank and tasted food, and enjoyed themselves. The shopkeeper Cao was already slightly drunk, took a table and put it on his lap, and struck the beat with both hands, like a drum, leading to singing:

In the green garden, the sunflower waits for the sun.

Yangchun Budeze, all things are brilliant.

Often afraid of the autumn festival, the yellow leaves of the yellow flower decline.

Hundreds of rivers from the east to the sea, when to return to the west.

The young man does not work hard, and the boss is sad.

The singing is vigorous, and the aftermath is endless. Everyone sighed, and it took a long time to calm down.

Shi Gao sighed with emotion and asked curiously, "You wrote this song?" ”

Shopkeeper Cao shook his head: "How can I have such talent, I don't know who wrote this song." It's just that the song laments that life is fleeting, but it is wasted, and it has the intention of inspiring people to forge ahead, which won my heart. I heard it once in the tent of General Duliao in the Western Regions, so I wrote it down. After saying that, his eyes were frozen, as if he was immersed in the recollection of the past.

Seeing that everyone looked solemn, Qiu Weng deliberately wanted to make the atmosphere more relaxed, got up and poured wine for everyone, and said: "Ten days later, the next batch of 'Pingding Kiln' tableware will arrive, shouldn't our small shop also change to a big store." ”

Shopkeeper Cao picked up the ear cup and poured the wine, and said, "According to today's situation, I have to change to a larger room." He turned around again and said with a smile: "Huang Gongzi, Shi Gongzi, you will also come when the time comes, I will leave two sets of the best ones for you." Liu Xun smiled and nodded.

Qiu Weng walked up to Shi Gao and was about to pour wine, Shi Gao stood up and said, "I'll come, I'll come." He took the wine jug from Qiu Weng's hand, first poured a full wine for Liu Xun, and then filled the ear cup of Qiu Qian who was sitting on the side, and saw that he seemed to be sullen, and said with a smile: "Young Master Qiu, the house is full of joyful drinking, why are you alone." ”

Qiu Qian pouted, "I can't be happy." In ten days, I won't be here. ”

Scoop was surprised and asked, "Why?" Where are you going? ”

Qiu Qian's expression was gloomy: "I am a felony suspect in the imperial court, and in ten days, I will go to the Tingwei Mansion to surrender." ”

"Surrender?" Scoop was taken aback. He was raising his glass of wine, and with a shake of his hand, he spilled it on his clothes. Qiu Weng hurriedly found a silk towel and handed it to him.

Shi Gao laughed at himself while wiping his clothes: "The wine is drunk, and the people are drunk." Then he wiped the table clean, and then put down the silk towel. He was still a little confused, staring at Qiu Qian with his eyes, hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help asking, "Are you a fugitive?" ”

Qiu Qian glanced at him: "Who is the fugitive?" ”

"What's going on here?"

Liu Xun couldn't believe it when he heard that Qiu Qian was a felony suspect, and what shocked him even more was that Qiu Qian actually had to go to the Tingwei Mansion to bring him to justice. As soon as Shi Gao's voice fell, he couldn't wait to say, "Tell me, what's going on." ”

Qiu Qian inexplicably became a criminal in the court, and he was wronged in his heart, and he always wanted to confess. However, no one in the Qiu Mansion compound wants to listen to nagging, and his father also thinks that he is the one who causes trouble. Now that someone is willing to listen, he has a feeling of meeting a confidant, so he told Shuo Fang's trip in detail, and finally said with a wry smile: "That's it, I became a court criminal who stole weapons." Fortunately, Shuofang County Prison sentenced Cao Peng Pangmeng, understood the suffering of our people, and let us go to the Tingwei Mansion to bring us to justice. So along the way, I didn't suffer much. Ten days later, however, I don't know what will happen. After saying that, he shook his head again and again, picked up the wine glass and drank it all.

The more Liu Xun listened, the more surprised he became. Ten felony suspects, no one escorted them, let them go to the Chang'an Tingwei Mansion by themselves, this kind of action was completely beyond his imagination.

"There is such a thing. Such an arson is against the law. He couldn't help but say.

Qiu Qian was depressed: "Breaking the law? How many people really broke the law? For example, I have stolen ordnance. ”

Liu Xun was speechless for a while, hesitated for a moment, straightened up and looked at Shi Gao.

Shi Gao originally wanted to comfort Qiu Qian for a few words, but he was hesitating what to say, but when he saw this, he smiled at Qiu Weng and said: "Qiu Jiaweng, we have eaten and drunk, and we have been disturbed for a long time, and it is time to leave." ”

Qiu Weng saw that he couldn't keep it, so he sent the two of them to the door with Shopkeeper Cao and Qiu Qian and said goodbye.

Liu Xun walked along Zhangtai Street to the east of Weiyang Palace. He frowned, speechless all the way, walking faster and faster, and it took a few steps for Scoot to catch up.

Liu Xun went straight into the Xuanshu Palace, and before he could sit down, he ordered: "Shi Gao, you go to the Tingwei Mansion and get the case files of the ten prisoners of Shuofang." ”

Shi Gao had just stepped into the threshold with one foot, and when he heard this, he hurriedly retracted it, said "Woo", turned around and went to the Tingwei Mansion, and vaguely heard Liu Xun muttering to himself: "This is a violation of the law." ”

After Shi Gao left, Liu Xun fidgeted in the Xuanshu Palace, eager to know what was going on with the ten prisoners of Shuofang. He felt like he had been waiting for a long time, and it seemed that there was an hour before Shi Gao returned. He was a little annoyed, and was about to get angry, when he saw Shi Gao holding a large bundle of bamboo slips, his face was covered with sweat, so he swallowed his words back and said, "So many." ”

Shi Gao put the bamboo slip on the table and took a breath: "There is more." I asked the officials of the Tingwei Mansion to put it outside the door, and I went to move in. ”

Liu asked, "You sit down." He glanced up at Xu Sang, who was waiting at the door. Xu Sang bowed slightly, and called a few words from an internal official. After a while, several internal officials moved the bamboo slips in.

Liu Xun picked up a roll of bamboo slips casually, checked it and put it down, and said, "Let's talk about it." ”

Shi Gao raised his sleeves and wiped the sweat from his face, and said: "I asked the Tingwei Mansion, and it is true that as Qiu Qian said, there are ten serious suspects in Shuofang who cannot be solved. The 10 prisoners were to be brought to the court at noon on September 15, and the court commander was recorded as prisoners. The specific facts of the case are in these files. ”

"The Tingwei Mansion can know that these ten prisoners entered Beijing on their own, and no one escorted them."

"I'm afraid the Tingwei Mansion doesn't know yet." Shi Gao said that he was worried in his heart, and secretly raised his eyes to glance at Liu Xun, and found that he frowned and thought about something, and there was no joy or anger, so he felt a little relieved.

Liu Xun pondered for a moment and said, "Prime Minister Xuan and Imperial Doctor enter the palace." ”

Xu Sang let out a "whoop" and passed the order.
