204 Chapter 91 Mid-Levels Meeting 03
201 Mid-levels Club 02 Check
Qu Lingyu sent the gang to move all the coffins to a secluded courtyard and place them, and quickly went to villages and towns near and far to buy ingredients and hire cooks. Suddenly, the wine and food were fragrant, and the decadence of the past two days was swept away.
After a rough preparation, Gu Xianglong followed Qu Lingyu to the banquet and saw everyone one by one, and said to Qu Guanghan: "Back to the alliance leader, Banshan Temple is no better than the chief rudder, everything has to be careful, and subordinates dare not be careless." I ask the leader of the alliance to order me to go outside and take care of me, so that I may not be sent to wait before the table. ”
Qu Guanghan said: "There is no such thing as the leader of the alliance today, they are all good friends." You don't feel comfortable here, but you can go somewhere else. Gu Xianglong led the order to retreat.
The wine and food were brought up, and sure enough, everyone had three or more vegetables that matched their taste. Qu Lingyu said to Xu Wancun: "Mr. Xu, senior brother said that you love to eat live fish the most, and you must have it for the sake of explanation." They have scooped up a few and are rectifying them, and they will send them up when they are done, you eat some green bamboo shoots first, we are not in a hurry. ”
Xu Wancun smiled at Qu Guanghan and said, "Mr. Qu, your young lady is very shrewd and capable, and you have taught it well." ”
Qu Guanghan shook his head and said: "It's impossible to say that you are capable, you just have to be stronger." Her mother died early, who would do it if she didn't do it? This is also forced out. ”
Qu Lingyu said: "Dad, it turns out that you also know that it is not easy for me, I always thought that you didn't know anything." ”
Qu Guanghan smiled: "I know, I know, I know everything." Brother Wu, do you think I know?"
Wu Baoqi said: "It's useless for you to just know in your heart, you have to tell Ling'er to know, and you have to do something, then you can count." It's useless to just say it with your mouth. ”
So far, Wei Shuoren still didn't say a word, only cared about drinking. Qu Lingyu was bold and said, "Wei Daxia, is the matter of slaughtering the murderous spirit considered gossip?"
Wei Shuoren said: "Miss Qu, everything outside of the Kainan Dart Bureau is all idle matter, of course you can say it." ”
Qu Lingyu said: "Very good, then I'll talk about it boldly." In my opinion, this is not a good thing, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is anticlimactic. If you fool the past, Miss Mei, Senior Brother and I can avoid being involved when we are young, and the four of you are all through things, but you will be ridiculed. ”
Qu Guanghan said: "Ling'er, you know, we haven't taken care of this matter from beginning to end, and we can't blame it." ”
Qu Lingyu said: "That's something I haven't managed before. After today, if you say that you haven't taken care of it, will anyone believe it?"
Xu Wancun said: "I dug out the 'Colorful Lotus', told the origin of the 'Flowing Years and Rapid Pill', and burned the arsenic from the soil of the Yishan Grass Courtyard, and pointed out the fatal loophole of the poisoner, and it is not difficult to trace the murderer by following this way." I've done my duty, and I'm not afraid of anyone laughing. ”
Wei Shuoren said: "I look at Mrs. Su's mother and son, and I don't seem to want to pursue it further, as outsiders, it's really not good for us to interfere in many things." ”
At this time, a gang came in from outside the door, came to Qu Lingyu's side, put down pen, ink and paper, and handed over a wax pill. Qu Lingyu inspected the seal on the pill, pinched the wax shell, and took out a finger-wide and four-inch-long strip of white silk. He took out a book the size of half a palm from his side, compared it with each other, and copied it on the paper as he translated it. After copying it, he picked up the paper and walked to Qu Guanghan and handed it over.
Qu Guanghan quickly finished reading it, shook his head, and handed it to Xu Wancun beside him: "Everyone should take a look." ”
Everyone read it one by one, and when it was passed to Chu Qingliu, they saw that it was written on the paper: "Brother Qu of the Central Plains: Dispatch troops for 37 days and fight to Weizhou." There were a lot of casualties, but it was not impossible to enter again, but it was unexpectedly that Tuo Yuan Hao was suddenly afraid, and he ordered the army to withdraw late at night, and the younger brother was incompetent and irretrievable. ”
"The lack of erection and conspiracy is the same in ancient and modern times. If this battle is only about the war, it is really a defeat of the Song Dynasty and a victory in the summer, which is gratifying. Since the army has been withdrawn, in terms of the general trend, it is Song Shengxia who is defeated. The Xia Kingdom is weak, and it is only possible to plunder near the border, and it is difficult to achieve great things. Withdrawing halfway shows that the monarch's heart to advance eastward is dead. What you and my brother have planned, I am afraid that it will be completely empty. Recently, my back sores have returned, and I can't sit still, thinking that I have been disgusted by God. Brother Yuan Ding You. ”
Seeing that everyone had finished reading it, Qu Guanghan said, "Burn it, let's not talk about it today." Qu Lingyu set fire to the cloth and paper, and removed the pen and ink.
Wei Shuoren said: "Mr. Qu, if you think about this matter of Su Daxia, what will you do?"
Qu Guanghan didn't think about it, and said: "It's simple, all suspicious people are killed one by one, and the murderer must be among them." I have too many things to do, and I don't have time to do water grinding work, so I can only cut through the mess with a quick knife. Chu Xian's nephew, what do you say?" may have received Zhang Yuan's unfavorable pigeon report, and his tone was very impulsive.
Chu Qingliu said: "In this way, it is happy, but the name is not right, and it seems to be inconsistent with the true meaning of the word slaughter." ”
Qu Guanghan took a glass of wine and drank it, and said to Wu Baoqi: "Brother Wu, you blame me for killing indiscriminately. ”
Wu Baoqi said: "I heard him say that his name is not right, but he neither mentioned abuse nor killing, don't scare children." ”
Qu Guanghan said: "You are not like me, you can't get rid of this matter." It's not been a day or two since you followed Qu Dingxiang, but you don't have a clue, which is really unreasonable. ”
Wu Baoqi hadn't answered yet, but when he saw Xu Wancun nodding first, he couldn't help sighing: "I went to Hangzhou last spring, and I thought that as long as I arrested someone and tortured him, there was nothing I couldn't ask." Killed more than a dozen people, but failed to ask anything useful. However, Mr. Xu has pointed out that poisoning must be obtained by a poison master, and a master of internal skills often meet to discuss, this matter is not difficult to investigate, and three days later, I will go to Hangzhou. ”
Qu Lingyu said: "Master, you don't have to go anywhere, just hang out with your father, and leave this matter to me." Even I don't have to go, let's do things with money this time. I will be able to find out to you which famous doctors Qu Dingjiao has been to in the past four or five years, and which ones are good at poisoning. Let's catch them all one by one and ask carefully, it will be much easier. ”
Wei Shuoren smiled: "After these few gossips, we should have a good drink, right?"
Qu Guanghan said first: "This is very true, from now on, only about drinking." Whoever talks about other things, even the three emperors and five emperors, as long as it can't be attributed to wine, will be fined a glass of wine. Brother Wu, what is the most enjoyable drink in your life?"
Wu Baoqi said: "There have been a few games. I've been drunk on the Green Ridge, drunk on Kongtong Mountain, and drunk with the three of you in Xingqing City, and these scenes are not too similar. ”
Qu Guanghan said: "The one I drank the most was the one in Xiangwangmiao. It's strange to say, just a little wine, three people drink it separately, not even a wax head, touch the black to drink, and all of them can drink and cry and scream, which is really capable. ”
Wei Shuoren said: "I usually drink the wine before killing, I can usually drink it to the fullest, you two might as well try it in the future." He said and had a drink.
Xu Wancun said: "When I drink, I love to lock myself up. Spread out the paper, grind the ink, pick up the pen and write, write while drinking, drink while writing, as for whether it is happy or not, it all depends on whether the wrist listens to the call. But I don't need to write and ink today, let's try the fresh. ”
Mei Zhanxue said: "The most enjoyable one I drank was when I married my eldest brother and second brother. ”
Qu Lingyu said: "The one I drank the most was in Hengshan Saucechong Town, I drank until I didn't know who was going to go, and I talked a lot of nonsense. Brother, what about you? Don't lie, I can hear lying. ”
Chu Qingliu said: "Just more than ten days ago, I drank two jars of thirty-year-old daughter red with Ye Flood in the wilderness of Yishan Mountain, and I was so drunk that I had a headache. After saying that, he looked at Qu Lingyu, very empty-hearted.
Qu Lingyu said with a smile: "There are a lot of people today, so I will save you some face, even if it is this one." ”
Mei Zhanxue said: "Miss Qu, you have the most ideas, how do you say to drink this wine today, so that everyone can enjoy it." ”
Qu Lingyu said: "I want everyone to have fun, I really don't have that much ability, among the seven of us, there are four or five people who can have fun, and it can be said." I'll give you an idea first, and if it doesn't work out, I'll say something else. ”
"We people who practice martial arts, if we also make some couplet poems, it is inevitably not like it, even if we learn from them, we have to have our own things. I think we might as well do this, every wine tour by two people out to be a "wine opponent", what these two people like to gamble, what they love to fight, all by themselves to discuss. The remaining five people can't just watch the jokes, they have to choose one side to follow, and the losing side all have to drink. There are seven people at the table, and any two of them must meet once and be a wine opponent. ”
Mei Zhanxue said: "Your method seems to have come up with it yourself, but in fact, it is just pushing the problem into the hands of everyone. ”
Qu Lingyu said: "What you said is good. That's fine, if any of the opponents can't come up with a fun way to fight, I'll come up with a problem for them, okay?"
Wei Shuoren said: "This method is fun, that's all." ”
Qu Lingyu said: "But there is one thing, you are not allowed to use your own strengths and hit others' shortcomings." For example, no one is allowed to compare internal skills with Mr. Xu, and Mr. Xu is not allowed to compare medical books and calligraphy with others. Miss Mei and I activate other people on the code, and we are not allowed to have the title on the rouge powder. ”
Wei Shuoren said: "This is the principle of nature, there is no need to say more." "I was a little eager to try. "I'll come from the people around me, Master Wu, I'll make a wine rival with you first. You give me a shark gall pill, I'll give you a black god pill, let's taste a bite, guess the medicine, whoever says it is wrong, that is a loss, you can rest assured, shark gall is not counted, I don't say shark gall. ”
Wu Baoqi nodded in agreement, the two of them changed the pill and tried it, Wei Shuoren said: "There is a bantam tiger." Wu Baoqi nodded first to show that he was right, and then said, "There is bitter artemisia." Wei Shuoren nodded to indicate that the answer was correct.
Mei Zhanxue said: "It's a tie, what should I do?"
Qu Lingyu said: "Then go on, after all, you can distinguish the winner from the loser." ”
Wei Shuoren said: "There is white withered grass. Wu Baoqi shook his head and said, "Without this flavor medicine, you lose." "All the losers who followed Wei Shuoren all drank.
Qu Guanghan and Wu Baoqi were the opponents, and they recited the poem "Title Wang Temple" and "King Qin's Grass" one after another, and those who couldn't catch it lost first. Qu Guanghan once stayed at Xiangwang Temple, but Wu Baoqi had only heard this poem relayed, but since the title was written by Wu Baoqi, it could not be said to be unfair.
Qu Lingyu and Chu Qingliu competed, Qu Lingyu ordered someone to bring seventeen or eighteen copper coins, and threw them on the table, and the two immediately turned around, comparing guessing a few heads and tails of copper coins, whoever said that the number was much worse and who lost.
Wei Shuoren and Xu Wancun competed, guessing the degree of old and tender bamboo shoots during the banquet, and called the kitchen workers to testify on the spot.
Qu Guanghan Xu Wancun competed, but the title was Qu Lingyu, guessing the number of words in Zhang Yuan's pigeon newspaper, and the closest side won. This question is really about the memorization skills of the two people, not a blind guess, and it is also very fair.
Chu Qingliu Mei Zhanxue fights, Mei Zhanxue asks questions, Mei guesses Chu with a long sword on his back, and Chu guesses the size of the short sword in Mei's arms. Mei Zhanxue was almost right, but Chu Qingliu couldn't say it and couldn't be wrong, but after all, he was not as accurate as Mei Zhanxue, and he was defeated and drunk.
Wu Baoqi Xu Wan Village competed, and Chu Qingliu first wrote down the mileage from Xu Wan Village Medical Office to Wanghaizhuang on a piece of paper, and kept it secret. Then each of them will say a number to see who is the closest. Wu has never been to the pharmacy, and Xu has never been to Wanghaizhuang, and it is all up to luck to say that it is right or wrong.
Wei Shuoren Chu Qingliu competed, Qu Lingyu ordered the two to turn their backs to the table, and then said the topic, it turned out to be the number of dishes on the table.
It was Qu Lingyu's turn to fight with Mei Zhanxue, and Mei Zhanxue said: "Miss Qu, you have to come up with the topic, I can't think of it, but I can't guess what the number is, it's too boring." ”
Qu Lingyu said, "Okay." Do you have incense powder rouge with you?"
Mei Zhanxue said: "I didn't bring a few things." ”
Qu Lingyu said: "Don't do much, you take out the best one, and I will take out the same." I originally had two kinds of incense powder by my side, but unfortunately Jiuqu Yunshui made my senior brother lose it, and only Helan Dongsha was still there. ”
Each person picked a little incense powder and put it in a small dish, ordered someone to take it to the courtyard outside the door, and put it on two stools far apart. More than 20 days have passed since Qingming, and wild bees have long been infested in the mountains.
Xu Wancun said: "Miss Qu, this method can't be said to be unfair, but you won too easily." ”
