North Yanjing City, inside the palace.

Yan Wang leaned back in his chair, feeling that his energy had become less and less in the past two years, and he felt very tired even after sitting for a long time.

"Father, a few days ago, Tong'er wanted a good horse, so I asked him to go to the horse farm outside the city to choose one.

Thinking that he was also bored in the city, he let him choose by himself, and he also played there for two days, but he didn't expect to be attacked at the horse farm.

Fortunately, a general in Nanying thought of taking this opportunity to find a horse and chased after it, so that Xiao'er was spared the disaster."

"What? Tong'er was attacked? There are also bandits in the capital who dare to make trouble? ”

King Yan's cloudy eyes widened.

"The thieves left twelve corpses, but it doesn't seem to be a bandit, it's a ......"

"What are you spitting? Say"

"It's a soldier, I've been away from Beijing for a few years, and it's not good to make a big storm when I come back, so I have ordered these corpses to be sent to the Internal Affairs Office. Left and right Tong'er is fine, I'll take him out of Beijing in a few days, let's stop this matter."

King Yan's hand shook a few times, and he instantly understood that he didn't like this second son, but the third child became more and more a bastard the older he grew up. This Wang family is also becoming more and more unscrupulous, and glanced at the respectful second son below:

"Jing Huai, you have been away from Beijing for a few years, and your temperament has become softer and softer."

……

"What does the Ministry of Internal Affairs say?" King Yan leaned on the soft collapse and looked at the little eunuch below.

"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Internal Affairs is a subordinate of Liu Chu of the Northern Army"

"Where's Liu Chu?"

"Escaped"

"Escaped? Hehe, treat me like an old fool" King Yan was furious, gasped for a long time, and felt dizzy,

"This sacrifice let the third child be grounded in the house, bastard thing"

Of course he knew that this was not done by the third child, what could a teenager do, but it must be the group of people behind him, and he had to knock and knock, and this matter of Lichu had to be reconsidered.

……

Princess Yan couldn't care about anything, and hurriedly left the palace and went to her son's mansion.

"General Liu, don't be discouraged, wait for Jing Huan to ascend the throne, naturally there will be a day when you will come out, don't be impatient"

Liu Chu sat on the side and nodded gloomily.

The little fat man Zhou Jinghuan was silent on the surface, but said secretly in his heart: I also said that what I am looking for are fish, turtles, shrimps and crabs, you are not the same as smashing the pot, if you change me, these people may not be so thorough.

"I just found out, the Great Elder didn't tell Ben, and the son-in-law of King Wei is not a national player, everything is a trap"

Mu Bingzhang squatted hard at the teacup,

"But there are no such talented people around King Wei, this plan is perfect, think about it, think of a person, do you remember the fire in the Hanging Building?"

The little fat man obviously shuddered after hearing the fire.

"You mean that the one who is missing is Chu Lianqi, and he is still alive?" Princess Yan couldn't help but say a word behind the screen.

"Apart from him, I really can't think of anyone else around King Wei who can come up with such a plan.

In addition, Jing Huan must participate in this spring festival, the second elder Zhou Ding is now in Pengcheng, and the Wang family has been supporting him for many years, as long as the eldest elder does not mean that, this little thing should still be able to be moved.

Hurry up and send someone, you can rush back in two days, and it's too late."

This is the first time Zhao Shi has come to Yan Kyoto, and it is also the first time he has seen such a majestic city in this world.

But there is nothing to marvel at, I have seen more majestic in my previous life.

King Wei has his own palace in the capital, and when he entered the palace, Chu Guangming may be very familiar with King Wei, and he directly entered the back house.

Zhao Shi didn't have this qualification, and waited in the middle hall for more than an hour, and King Wei didn't say anything when he came out, just nodded at him. turned around and shouted: "Go and arrange a place for my uncle"

Don't look at this simple sentence, Zhao Shi knows that this has been recognized as his own by King Wei.

A subordinate took him to the courtyard to arrange a lodging and gave him a waist card to enter and exit.

After staying in the palace for two days, the spring festival was about to begin, and no one paid attention to him.

Zhao Shi knew that he had let people be used as bait, and he was even more angry that there was no benefit after the matter was over, and he would go back after the spring festival, so he took his waist card out of the palace and wandered around.

This capital is really much more prosperous than Weishui, and it can be said that it is full of traffic. Hawkers shouted along the streets.

After a day of wandering, I had a snack on the street at noon, and now it's almost evening, and my hungry chest is on my back.

After touching it, there were still a few pieces of broken silver in his pocket, so he wanted to find a bigger restaurant to add to his stomach.

"Zhao Gongzi, my lord has an invitation to the restaurant over there" A young man in Tsing Yi came over and saluted Zhao Shi.

"Who is your master?" Zhao Shi looked at it and didn't know it.

"My lord said that the person you are scolding is him"

Zhao Shiwan smiled: "Got it, lead the way ahead"

……

Not very far, into a private room on the second floor of a restaurant, an old man in Tsing Yi with a hat, standing in front of the window with his back to the window.

In the middle was a rather sumptuous banquet, Zhao Shi ignored the old man who was still pretending to be B, sat down directly, poured himself a glass of wine first, and then picked up chopsticks to eat.

The old man saw that Zhao Shi ignored him, took off his hat, turned around and sat down opposite, and sure enough, it was the old man with a scarface: "But I'm angry?" ”

"What do you say? If I hadn't been clever, I would have almost been killed by you."

"I didn't know that you had a conflict with Yue Sheng, but I was negligent."

"Why don't you say hello first, this really shows how stupid I am here, we can't be together after we play like this"

"This time it's the old man's fault, come, I'll punish myself"

"It's easy to say that you don't punish for drinking, but this time it's over, and there is no reward? I'm licking blood with a knife, so I don't have anything to say? ”

The old man drank a glass of wine: "You are still too young, too young, and have no pattern"

"Fart pattern, don't come to this, let's come to the actual, who will die if it's not good"

"Hehe, let's say you don't have a pattern, let me ask you, if this King of Wei becomes the King of Yan, will you still lack benefits as a son-in-law?"

Of course, Zhao Shi understood it in his heart, but he didn't admit it:

"It's hard to say, if you wait for the prince to become the king of Yan, it will be the king of a country, and you won't look down on me, the son-in-law from the northern slave, and you will kick me."

"Where will this be, the old man will use the head of the person on the neck as a guarantee" The old man laughed and poured Zhao Shi a glass of wine.

……

"Two days later, there will be a big festival, you can have more fun in Yanjing in these two days, don't say it's no good."

After the old man finished speaking, he took out a stack of silver tickets from his bosom and put them on the table:

"This one holds"

Zhao Shi saw that the silver tickets were all fifty taels and at least a dozen in this stack, and immediately smiled.

"The Jingchun Pavilion and Baolou in the capital are all famous at the top, so you must go to see and see, but don't say what I said," the old man said in a low voice.

Zhao Shi smiled, of course he knew that it was not so good for him to go to the Qinglou with his identity.

……

Jingchun Pavilion is actually the top in the second-rate green building, and the main problem is that it is vulgar and the grade is too low.

The first-class Qinglou pays attention to piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the people who come and go are all elegant people, and any maid can also chant poetry and do it right, and the hugging building is the top.

But Zhao Shi is vulgar, vulgar, and vulgar, and he is a dirt bun.

After eating, he went to the street and shouted the carriage that pulled his feet.

"The best green building in the capital is a hug building?"

"Yes, go and hug the building for three big bucks," the old man replied respectfully.

"Go" Zhao Shi lifted the curtain and got into the car, we have money, we have to enjoy it.

Where did Tubaozi come to this green building, Zhao Shi learned from others to spend five taels of silver on the first floor to make a tea circle.

It took a long time to find out that this tea circle was just a group of scholars chanting poems here, and a few maids grinded and poured water.

Isn't this a pit for consumers? Five taels of silver is enough for the expenses of a poor family for half a year. Zhao Shi was furious, and in a fit of anger, he took out another thirty taels and went up to the second floor.

The maid led Zhao Shi up to the second floor, there were more than a dozen small tables on the second floor, with refreshments, and people were almost full.

Zhao Shi found an empty table next to him and sat down, and a woman in the middle was stroking the qin and singing.

This woman is extremely beautiful, her piano voice is ethereal, and the words she sings are also very tasteful.

After a while, when the singing was finished, the crowd had finished drinking, and a scribe in the middle got up and gave a piece of paper to the maid who was waiting.

The woman held it in her hand and looked at it for a while, then stroked the piano and sang again, and there was another burst of cheers.

Zhao Shi is a little confused, didn't he come to the wrong place? I want to say hello to the little girl who is waiting on the side.

"What's the matter with Childe?"

"I'd like to ask, here...... Is it a green house? ”

Zhao Shi is wearing a green cloth shirt, all the people who can come to the newspaper building are high-ranking officials and giants, this little girl is usually used to seeing guests wearing gold and silver, so she looks down on him, and when she hears the vulgarity of his question, she doesn't like to pay attention to it.

Zhao Shi saw that the little girl didn't speak, and thought that she didn't hear it, so he said in a louder voice:

"I asked if this is a green house, or if it is a brothel or a kiln?"

Just as Zhao Shi spoke, the audience was silent, and Zhao Shi's words were heard clearly by the audience.

The woman in the middle was extremely annoyed when she heard this, and immediately plucked the piano hard: "Why did this son insult him?" ”

Zhao Shi was also quite embarrassed, and it was difficult to explain it in front of everyone's eyes, so he had to say:

"I'm wandering around here to ask what this is, and how does it count as humiliation?"

The middle-aged scribe carefully prepared a poem, which he considered to be of excellent quality, and was ready to be in the limelight today, and it was unknown whether he would even capture his heart.

Who knew that he had just finished singing and had not yet waited for applause. In one sentence here, I stirred up things for myself, and my heart suddenly became angry. Seeing that Zhao Shi was not a child of a family with all his clothes, he shouted angrily:

"Which of your descendants stole the money of the master's family and squandered it here?"

Zhao Shi wanted to scold back, but when he thought that he was out to have fun, why bother, so he casually hugged the woman:

"It's reckless, I originally wanted to find a sister to be happy, who would have thought that the sister in the capital had such a big temper, she couldn't afford to provoke her, so she quit"

After saying that, he got up and was about to leave, and when the Chinese scribe saw that he thought that he had been blinded correctly, it was really stolen money, so he immediately shouted:

"Don't run away, let's tell us where the money came from, otherwise I will arrest you and send you to the official"

The scholar at the table next to him also held stinky feet, and came over a few steps to pull Zhao Shi's clothes: "Don't run"

Zhao Shi opened his outstretched hand in disgust, but the waist card in his arms fell to the ground without noticing.

The scholar snatched it and looked at it: "Hey, from the Weiwang Mansion?" ”

Zhao Shi said with a calm face: "Bring it, otherwise don't blame me for being polite."

When the middle-aged scribe heard this, he immediately said loudly: I know all the people in the Weiwang Mansion, which one are you? If I don't make it clear today, I will send you to the government to punish the crime."

The scholar also came to his senses, took a few steps back with his waist card, and shouted downstairs: "Block the stairs, don't let him run"

It's really unlucky, Zhao Shi scolded and turned around and sat down.

"I am the son-in-law of King Wei, and the Mansion of King Wei is not far from here, so you can take the waist card and send someone to ask"

As soon as the words came out, the whole building was silent, and everyone looked at each other, they had never seen the son-in-law of the Wang family dare to come to the Qinglou, and he dared to say it in public.

Upstairs there was applause, an old man walked downstairs, it seemed that he was very status, and several people on the second floor got up to salute.

"Elder Xu Ge..."

The old man waved his hand, turned to Zhao Shi and said, "This little brother is brave, aren't you afraid to go back to King Wei to beat you?" ”

"Hehe, you're going to beat me to death?"

"Ah...... Of course not."

"Then why be afraid?"

"Haha, I didn't expect Jing Huai's son-in-law to be a wonderful person, but if you say that you are really in the wrong place, you are all prostitutes here, and you are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and songs, but it is not what you think, if you are a prostitute, you have to find a prostitute"

"Oh, I see, thank you for your advice" Zhao Shi hugged his fists and saluted.

"It seems that you are just arrogant, but you are just a chick"

"No, no, no, I've been to places far more high-end than this hugging building, but the rules are different.

It's just that fiddling with these poems and songs is boring, so I'll go to another place...... Prostitution ~ prostitution, this word sounds indecent"

Zhao Shi turned his direction and gave a salute to the woman in the middle: "Fang Cai's words are so offended, please Haihan"

After the woman finished talking just now, she saw that she was a half-grown child, so she thought that she was young and open-mouthed, and later saw that there was a conflict because of this, and she regretted it in her heart:

"No wonder Childe, it's the little woman who lost her words, but Childe said it higher... Where to go in the middle of the week? That's the imperial city, naturally more prosperous than here, but it's not necessarily much more high-end, right? ”

Zhao Shi shook his head: "No, no, alas, but I'm afraid that I won't have a chance to go back in this life, so I won't mention it."

"It's a bunch of nonsense, and it's boring to fiddle with poetry and songs, I'm afraid I can't read a few words, it's really a shame for King Wei"

The middle-aged scribe saw that Xu Ge was getting old, so he had to complain and turn around and sit down.

The scholar also handed over the waist card:

"Whether it's a poem or a word, I don't know if you can reluctantly fiddle with one or two poems? Don't let people say that King Wei recruited a white son-in-law"

Zhao Shi took the waist card, looked at it, everyone around him was looking at him, and sighed:

"The poems are originally inspired by feelings, and the feelings are there, and here they become cooks stir-frying, which is better than whose dishes are fried.

Anyway, I've written a little word before, and I'll use it for my errand today."

"I'm grinding with Childe," the woman was very excited.

"I'll read you and write it, my words are too ugly"

"Childe is humble" The woman saw that Zhao Shi insisted on not reaching out, so she laid out the paper and grinded the pen by herself.

"The rain is murmuring outside the curtain, and the spring is beautiful,

Luo Ji is not tolerant of the five colds.

In my dream, I didn't know that I was a guest, and I was greedy for joy.

Alone without a railing, infinite rivers and mountains,

Sometimes it's easier to see, sometimes it's harder.

Flowing water and flowers go in spring, heaven and earth. ”

The building is quiet, and all the people present are literati and writers, and you can tell if the poems are good or bad. I don't know how good this word is, but it's certainly not something that any of you here can write.
