(After a long absence, I didn't know that I was collecting money by 500 words now, I'm sorry, and finally, I thank you.) ）

......

......

The name of the restaurant is Jincui, a famous and luxurious place in Yangzhou City, the dishes are extremely exquisite, there are several examples of ancient dishes that have been inherited for thousands of years, and they cannot be eaten in Chang'an City.

For the big men of the Qinghe County lords, these are naturally nothing, and their attention is not on the table at all, no one raises a chopstick, no one raises a glass, the heat on the plate rises, and it is quickly blown away by the autumn wind, and it gradually becomes cold.

"The head of the family, kill or not?"

The steward, who knelt on one knee outside the threshold, asked in a trembling voice, he could no longer bear the dead silence in the room, and wanted to get an answer to his heart.

The two men in that carriage were envoys sent by Chang'an City to the Xiling Temple - the feud between Qinghe County and Chang'an was as deep as the sea, and there was no room for reconciliation for a long time.

Yes, the Xiling Temple wants these two people to live, and there are still some people in the Xiling Temple who want these two people to die, and the will of those people is very clear.

However, a long time passed, and even the sound of wheels crushing against stone slabs could be faintly heard in the distance, and the room was still dead silent.

The faces of the lords of Qinghe County were either blue or cold, their lips did not move at all, and they did not even blink their eyes, like statues.

Back then, Jun Mo walked into the manor on the bank of the Fuchun River with Mu Yu, and Ning Que, who was far away in Taoshan, shot the old lady of the Cui family with an iron arrow, and since that day, the lords of Qinghe County have lost all their confidence and are no longer as sharp as they were at the beginning, so these family heads are hesitating and struggling, and no one can make a decision.

There must be enough information to help them make a decision, so they are waiting, waiting for the latest news from Chang'an City, waiting for the news from the states and counties of the Tang Kingdom, they want to know if the Tang Imperial Court really did what is rumored, they want to know if that person is really so ruthless.

Several sharp whistles, piercing the gloomy sky and tearing through the autumn rain, entered the restaurant, and at the same time brought the most accurate news.

Yes, Chang'an City is killing people, Gushan County is killing people, Beidaying is killing people, Qingxia rear is killing people, and Tang Kingdom is killing people everywhere.

Thousands of prisoners of war were executed, half of the family members of the Tang priests who rebelled to the Xiling Temple were executed, and He Mingchi's entire family was executed by Ling Chi, even the relatives of Xiong Chumo, the head of the temple...... It seems that he also fell in a pool of blood, and too many people died in this autumn rain.

The people in the restaurant were mentally prepared for this, they did not forget that in the spring rain of that year, just before the Tang Kingdom and the Xiling Temple reached a peace treaty, Ning Que took the Yulin Army and the Fish Dragon Gang to rush into the Qinghe County Hall and kill everyone inside.

The people who died in the guild hall were their brothers, their children, and their relatives, how could they forget?

The faces of the lords of the lords became more and more gloomy and gloomy, as if they were about to drip water, like ice sculptures under the scorching sun, and they were covered with coldness.

However, they still did not give the order to attack the carriage on the long street.

I don't know how long it took for the dead silence in the building to finally be broken by an old voice, and now the head of the Song family, who has the highest ranking among the surnames, looked at the autumn rain outside the building, and said weakly: "Please come upstairs." ”

......

......

There was no fighting, no killing, when Yu Youxian and Chen Qi walked into the restaurant and climbed the steps, and when they saw the seven family heads behind the threshold, they saw a peaceful scene and heard a very gentle greeting.

The dishes on the table have long been replaced with new ones, steaming, fragrant, and lit with candles under the plate, even if the autumn breeze outside the building is cold, it can always keep warm.

The head of the Zhuvalve family is like a statue that has come to life, with a gentle and reserved smile on his face, his eyes are full of enthusiasm, some people take Yu Youxian's hand, sit down separately, and begin to recall the old scenery of the academy.

It seems to go back to the past, the lords in Yangzhou City carelessly and dignified to entertain the Qincha from Chang'an City, as if there has been no story between the two sides over the years, the Tang Dynasty sailors have not been destroyed in Daze, those officials loyal to the imperial court have not been hung by them on the roadside, and it is also as if Ning Que had not entered the Qinghe County Hall back then, the spring rain had not fallen, and this year's autumn rain was also fake.

After the cold noise, there was a banquet to catch the wind, not the autumn wind, but the lords hoped that this banquet would welcome two people who came to fight the autumn wind.

These two people represent the imperial court and the academy, and the autumn wind is naturally the autumn wind of the imperial court and the academy, no matter what they fight, as long as they don't kill people.

The voices of the heads of the family were very low, covered by the autumn rain outside the building, and then covered by the formation, even if the great priest of the Xiling Temple was there in person, he might not be able to hear the truth.

"What do Her Royal Highness and Mr. Thirteen want?" table

The head of the Song Valve family looked at Yu Youxian and Chen Qi, and said humbly: "Whether it is money or mines, even if it is my old life, it can be discussed." ”

Ning Que wanted to talk to the world, in fact, the world also wanted to talk to him, when he killed so many people in this autumn rain and showed his attitude to the whole world, as he calculated, Qinghe County wanted to talk about it very much.

The heads have been laid out, the surnames of Qinghe County, after all, they have to consider the problem of the back road, the temple may definitely win the final victory, but they are sandwiched between the Tang Kingdom and the temple, how many people can survive after the war?

However, things in the world are always unsatisfactory, in the past, when Chang'an City wanted to talk, they didn't want to talk about it, now they want to talk, it's Chang'an City's turn not to talk, at least Yu Youxian and Chen Qi don't want to talk, they can talk about the scenery of the academy and the beautiful dealers in the gambling house, they just don't want to talk about this.

Because Chang'an City knows very well that it is impossible for Qinghe County to return to the embrace of the Tang Dynasty, and this is also the premise of the conversation between the lords, since this is the case, it is better not to talk about it.

Seeing that Yu Youxian and Chen Qi were only moving towards the delicacies on the table, the head of the Song Valve family was silent for a moment and said, "Does this make sense?"

Chen Qi put down the ebony ivory chopsticks in his hand, looked at the other party quietly, and said, "What are you referring to?

"No matter how many people can make Mr. Thirteen kill, even if it is tens of thousands, there are still numbers after all, after killing those prisoners of war and hostages, what else can he do?"

The head of the Song Valve family said worriedly with an attitude of his own people: "After all, it is impossible for him to destroy this world alone. ”

Chen Qi looked at him quietly, then looked around, looking at these high-ranking family masters who were dressed in brocade clothes and had an elegant and extraordinary bearing, and suddenly laughed.

He felt that just like what Ning Que said before leaving Chang'an City, this matter was really interesting, the more people they killed, the more docile they would be, even if the flame of grief and anger was still burning in their bones, but they didn't dare to do anything.

The smile gradually faded, and Chen Qi's eyes returned to calm, extremely deep, giving people a very strange feeling, which made the people on the table gradually uneasy.

Chen Qi remembered what Ning Que said, but he didn't say it, he asked directly: "Who wants to kill us?"

The head of the Song Valve family replied without hesitation: "Master Zhangjiao." ”

......

......

At night, Chen Qi and Yu Youxian sat at the table, thinking about the previous banquet and the conditions proposed by the lords, they glanced at each other and couldn't help but shake their heads.

"What do these people think? Do they not know that they are not qualified to bargain at all? How dare they expect the imperial court to admit the current situation, and only lose taxes and not garrison troops?" said Yu Youxian mockingly.

Chen Qi said: "It is impossible for the lords to fall to the imperial court, just have a thought of what to do, and release some goodwill in advance, Mr. Thirteen's murder really killed the courage of many people, and these guys in the south always have some inexplicable superiority, and always feel confident to get something, otherwise how could they have betrayed to Xiling in the first place? However, how did they know what Mr. Thirteen wanted in the end." ”

He remembered what Ning Que said again, and couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, but the meaning hidden in his smile was such coldness.

Yu Youxian said: "I don't know the situation on Wang Jingluo's side. ”

Chen Qi said: "He has been talking to those young people for a few years on behalf of Mr. Thirteen, and I think it should be a good discussion." ”

The big people in Qinghe County in the restaurant thought that Ning Que's killing poke was meaningless, but they didn't know that in Chen Qi's opinion, their banquet was meaningless.

The person Ning Que wanted to talk to was never the head of the Zhuzhu family, but some young people, and he thought that was the real hope.

Early the next morning, Yu Youxian and Chen Qi set out again, and they accepted the goodwill, gold and silver of the Qinghe County lords, but they did not leave a word.

The heads of the lords stood on the shore, looking at the shadow of the boat that gradually disappeared into the mist of Daze, thinking of Chen Qi's eyes in the restaurant yesterday, and felt a little cold.

Because that's the look of a dead man.

......

......

Daze is mighty, looking at it, you can't see the shore at all, boating on it, like walking in the ocean, people suddenly feel small.

Yu Youxian knew that he was only afraid of death on Peach Mountain, so he simply relaxed his mind, admired the lake view, stood in the light rain and carried a pot of fruit wine, and learned the appearance of a scribe in Luotuo.

Unfortunately, his mood was soon destroyed, because suddenly there were many huge shadows of boats on the lake, and those boats were extremely huge, and the sails covered the sky, and they were like moving mountain peaks on the water, and the momentum was amazing.

The Southern Jin Dynasty sailor is here. (To be continued.) [
