Volume 1 The Heaven in the Pot Chapter 108 The Feast of the Hongmen (8)
Liu Wanxiu was a little emotional: "What do you know?!" ”
Song Cheng continued to sneer: "It's just a fact, is there still a hidden secret?" ”
"Of course!"
Liu Wanxiu put down his chopsticks, he looked around at the eyes, and said slowly: "The children of my Liu family are not greedy for life and afraid of death, but the situation at that time is already unconceivable, the old Emperor Lin is extremely dim, and the surrounding area is full of eunuchs' eyes and ears, plus the forbidden army in the imperial capital at that time has been controlled by the eunuch group, if you attack the eunuch group at that time, it is tantamount to sending them to death, and they will be wiped out, but they will take advantage of their intentions." ”
Liu Wanxiu thought of a few people, and said regretfully: "At that time, the children of my Liu family privately advised the prime minister and other loyal people at the time, let them plan and then move, and wait and see what happens, but they underestimated the eunuch group at that time, not only did they not listen to this, but also scolded the old man of my Liu family who advised him fiercely, and the old man of my Liu family was disheartened, so he took a group of children and resigned and withdrew from the court. ”
"And!" Liu Wanxiu's voice suddenly became high, "At that time, it was not only the children of my Liu family who decided to lurk, as far as I later knew, the current emperor and the military department Shangshu Qiao Qi were like this, but they were more forbearing. ”
Qiao Qi on the stage was a little surprised, he didn't expect Liu Wanxiu to actually mention himself, and he didn't expect Liu Wanxiu to tie himself to his Liu family.
"Emperor? Qiao Qi? Song Cheng seemed a little incredulous.
Liu Wanxiu glanced at Song Cheng contemptuously: "Third child, if you talk about dancing guns and sticks, my Liu family is indeed inferior to your Song family, but if you talk about the wisdom of this court, you still have to learn from my Liu family, there is a deep water in it." ”
Song Cheng's face was a little unbearable, he snorted and didn't say anything more.
Liu Wanxiu smiled faintly, then looked at Qiao Qi, and asked gently, "Old man, I haven't asked you yet, what is the story in this rat broth?" What does this vole have to do with your master? ”
Qiao Qi was suddenly speechless, what Song Cheng said was what he planned to say to Liu Wanxiu, but Liu Wanxiu explained the same reason as he did at the time, and people also lifted themselves out, at this time, denying others is denying themselves in the past few decades, this is a fart!
Qiao Qi held back on stage for a long time, and finally held out two words depressedly: "No." ”
"Then thank you, old man."
Liu Wanxiu arched his hand, and he smiled secretly in his heart: "We all know who you are, and it is easy to deal with you again, and this Qiao Qi is nothing more than that." Now it's up to the third guy to get through this hurdle. ”
Qiao Qi was a little irritable by Liu Wanxiu, he poured his anger on the subordinate who prepared the ingredients, and said angrily: "Even serving a dish can be wrong, it's just a waste!" ”
The soldiers below were a little aggrieved, and brought up the things prepared for Song Cheng.
Song Cheng looked at the pot of wine on the tray, and couldn't help but be stunned, Liu Wanxiu next to him also looked surprised, he thought of the bad place: "It can't be that this Qiao Qi was annoyed and angry by what I said, and planned to directly let the third child drink the poisonous bar." ”
Song Cheng's first reaction was also poisonous wine, after all, there are too many examples of this kind of poisonous wine in history, and Qiao Qi in front of him is indeed ill-intentioned, however, he thought about it again and again, and still denied this idea, now that he and the others have fallen into the hands of the Jiuqu people, they don't have to use such troublesome means to kill themselves.
"This is my master's favorite 'drink' in his life, Mr. Three came to taste it."
"Drink" is made of fruits or herbs, it is a kind of health drink with medicinal value, not only quenching thirst, but also clearing heat and detoxifying, is a drink that people love in ancient times.
No matter how clever Song Cheng is, he can't understand the deep meaning of this "drink", he picked up the wine glass and tasted a small sip, as soon as the "drink" entered it, Song Cheng frowned.
"What a weird smell this is!"
Different from the "drink" he drank on weekdays, the "drink" in front of him was mixed with at least several kinds of fruits and more than a dozen medicinal herbs, and the taste was so messy that Song Cheng resisted the urge to spit it out and forcibly swallowed it.
"This Qiao Qi can't be a bad taste, deliberately disgusting me, right?" Song Cheng took a deep breath and suppressed the taste.
Of course, Qiao Qi is not a bad taste, he sat on it, looked at Song Cheng and said: "My master loved 'drink' before his death, it can be said that this is the necessity of his life, at the beginning, there were only two kinds of medicinal materials in this 'drink', and the taste and fruit were mixed together and it was only very fresh, but then someone added medicinal herbs to it, at first it was one taste, and then it was two flavors and three flavors, with the continuous increase of medicinal materials, this 'drink' also became a complete five flavors, and finally, a healthy drink gradually became a chronic poison." ......”
Song Cheng listened to what Qiao Qi said, quietly looked at the wine glass in front of him, he understood what Qiao Qi meant, and Song Chengyi said with a deep taste: "This is a tragedy, it's a pity." ”
Qiao Qi stopped his words and said incomprehensibly: "Tragedy is tragedy, why is it a pity?" ”
Song Cheng's voice was a little sad and said: "'Drink' is a drink used for health care, and the medicinal materials added in it are naturally beneficial to the human body, I think the person who added medicinal materials to your master's 'drink' should only be out of kindness." ”
"Out of kindness?"
Song Cheng nodded: "If you didn't know that the medicinal herbs added later were all beneficial, how could your master drink it?" It's just that what neither of them expected was that these beneficial medicinal materials were mixed together but became a chronic poison, one was kind to do things, and the other was to accept it with good intentions, but they didn't expect the result to be counterproductive, which is a pity. ”
Qiao Qi was silent for a long time, and then gradually tasted Song Cheng's meaning, but his expression was much more solemn.
Song Cheng saw that Qiao Qi's gaze at him changed from curiosity at the beginning, to indifference when he asked, and finally to vigilance now. Song Cheng's heart also sank to the bottom.
Sure enough, Qiao Qi said something that made most people on the field feel foggy.
"Mr. Three, what do you know?"
As soon as these words came out, Liu Wanxiu, who was trying to think about the deep meaning of the conversation between the two next to Song Cheng, couldn't help but be surprised, and he subconsciously looked at Qiao Qi.
Qiao Qi saw Liu Wanxiu coming over, and immediately responded with a meaningful smile, and Liu Wanxiu's body suddenly stiffened in place.
Song Cheng originally wanted to defend himself, but when he saw Liu Wanxiu beside him acting like this, he knew that no amount of cover-up was useless, he pondered for a long time, smiled bitterly, and replied with a sentence that made most people scratch their heads: "Because it's too perfect?" ”
Qiao Qi got up from his seat: "Yes, sometimes being too perfect is the way to die." ”
