Chapter 52, a glass of wine and a book
Ayimu really couldn't listen to it, and was about to explain to Hu and Mu that what the two were saying was some filthy words, and it was inconvenient to listen carefully, when he suddenly heard the bearded officer say: "You can't go to the 'Silk Road Pavilion' tonight to have fun, you have to travel overnight, otherwise this official document will not be delivered to Li Yuanhao in three days." ”
The sturdy officer grinned and said: "Yes, yes, if you go again, I'm afraid you and I will become soft-footed crabs, where can we still hurry, then it's not a big deal, haha, come on, drink and drink!." ”
Ayimu whispered to Hu and Mu: "They brought the official document with them, and they were going to the hands of Li Yuanhao in Western Xia, I don't know what the content is, but it sounds very urgent, and they will rush overnight tonight, saying that they will be delivered in three days." ”
Hu Zhenbang whispered to Mu Hanyi: "You have to try to take a look at the official documents they are carrying." Mu Hanyi nodded and said, "Yes, I have to think of a way." ”
Hu Zhenbang looked at the two Tubo officers who were drunk, but the bearded officer touched a burden on his back from time to time, which was shaped like a bamboo tube, and expected that the official document sent to Li Yuanhao in Western Xia must be here. Quietly talked to Mu Hanyi, discussed with the two, how to take the official document and take a look, Mu Hanyi thought about it and said, "I have a way." It's just that I have to bother my sister to accompany me to perform a play. ”
Ayimuki said: "Can I help too, my sister will tell me." ”
Mu Hanyi said the method softly, Hu Zhenbang said: "Second sister, are you willing?" Ayimu smiled: "Although these two Tubo officers are full of foul language and are very disgusting, I am still willing to help my eldest brother and sister act together, hoping to find out important news." ”
When Hu Zhenbang and Mu Hanyi heard her say this, they understood why Ayimu looked very disgusted when they listened to these two people before, thinking that the two officers must be vulgar and foul-mouthed.
I saw two Tibetan officers drinking wine and eating meat, and they were on top of their heads, when they suddenly heard a burst of singing in their ears: "The heart of the homeless man, like the clouds of Namtso, quietly stole the starry ...... from the night until dawn" is singing the love song of Tibet, the song is euphemistic and moving, and it is intoxicating.
When the two officers looked back, they saw a masked woman with beautiful hair and a shawl singing, another young man dressed as Han was smiling and listening, and a beautiful woman dressed as Han was pouring wine into his cup.
The Hu officer listened to Ayimu sing gracefully, and it was a Tubo song, and his eyes inadvertently looked at her, which was greatly amazed, only to see that although this singer was covered with a white veil, but the beautiful eyes could not hide the brilliance, so that he did not dare to look directly, and secretly said in his heart, this woman can make men in the world fall for it with just this pair of eyes, not to mention that the singing voice is so beautiful, it is really a rare stunner in the world.
At that moment, he moved his mind, beckoned to Hu Zhenbang, and asked, "Friend, how much money did you pay to invite her to sing?" Seeing Hu Zhenbang's surprised face, he knew that he couldn't understand the Tibetan language. He was thinking about how to explain the meaning of his words and let him understand what he meant, but he saw that the masked woman said something to the Han boy, and the Han boy smiled and said something to himself, and the masked woman turned her head and said to herself in Tubo: "Master Jun, this young master said that he spent a hundred taels of silver to invite me to sing a little song." ”
The bearded officer said in his heart: "His grandmother's, this Han boy must be a descendant of a wealthy businessman, so rich, Lao Tzu can't lose in his hands." He immediately said, "Girl, you tell him, I will give two hundred taels of silver, you can sing a little song for me!"
The masked girl smiled slightly, turned her head and spoke Chinese to Hu Zhenbang again. Hu Zhenbang looked embarrassed, and said something to the masked girl, made a gesture, and asked her to translate it to the Curly Hu officer, and the masked girl said to the Curly Hu officer: "Military master, this young master said, this is not a question of more money and less money, but a first-come, first-served problem, this hundred taels of silver, he asked me to sing with him for an afternoon." However, the young master said that there is another way, if the two military masters are willing to appreciate their faces, they will promise to let me come and sing music for the two military masters immediately. ”
When the curly-bearded officer heard this, he laughed and said, "Then it's good to dare to be kind, you might as well ask him to tell him, what is the way?" ”
The masked girl said: "This young master said, he said that if you can beat him in the ability to drink, let me sing music with the two military masters at will." If you can't beat him, then don't think about it. ”
When Officer Juan Hu heard this, he looked at Hu Zhenbang, and said in his heart: "With you who looks like a scholar, can I still drink you?" laughed and said: "Okay, you tell him, tell him not to regret it." ”
After listening to this, Ayimu said to Hu Zhenbang again, Hu Zhenbang also laughed, got up and waved his hand, Mu Hanyi immediately picked up the wine jug, took the wine glass, walked to the table of the two officers and said: "Then compare with our young master who has a bigger amount of wine and who is smaller." Ayimu also stood up, walked in front of the two officers, translated Mu Hanyi's words in Tubo, and said that he listened to the two, and the two officers laughed when they heard it, and they both said in their hearts: "This Han boy is really not self-sufficient. ”
The elite officer pointed to the wine jug and wine glass in Mu Hanyi's hand and said, "Will you use this pot of wine to compete with this small wine glass?"
Mu Hanyi didn't wait for Ayimu to translate, he knew his intentions, and said to Ayimu: "You tell him that if this pot of wine can not get drunk, he will come to the altar again." Ayimu told the Tubo officers the original words in Tubo, and the two Tubo officers laughed again, made a gesture, and said, "Then come!"
Hu Zhenbang shook his head with a smile, and said something to Ayimu, who told the two officers: "What this young master means is that he wants to drink two cups of one against two, that is, he drinks two cups alone, and one of you drinks, if he gets drunk first, he loses." If one of you is drunk and the other is not drunk, he loses. ”
As soon as these words came out, the two Tubo officers were both angry, and said in their hearts: "This Han boy is so arrogant, he dares to underestimate the amount of alcohol I drink in Tubo, I have to drink you down today." "I said yes right now. Mu Hanyi had already poured four glasses of wine here, two in front of the Tubo officer, and two in front of Hu Zhenbang.
The officer Hu stretched out his hand to take the cup, but the elite officer on the side suddenly stretched out his hand to stop it and muttered a word. The two of them each pushed the wine glass in front of Hu Zhenbang in front of them, and brought the two glasses of wine in front of Hu Zhenbang to themselves. It turned out that the fierce officer was meticulous and fearful of deception in the wine, so he proposed to change the glass and drink again.
Hu Zhenbang smiled slightly, raised the two glasses of wine that were pushed in front of him, and drank them all with his neck up. The two Tibetan officers saw that there was no difference, and they also raised their glasses and drank at the moment.
Mu Hanyi poured four more cups, and the three of them drank it all again. When he got to the third round, the curly officer suddenly felt lightheaded, his eyes were black, and he was about to fall, and the fierce officer hurriedly grabbed to help, but his eyes were also dark, and he couldn't stand firmly. Hu Zhenbang stepped forward one by one, one on each side, and sat down. Let the two of them lie down at the table, as if they were drunk and sleeping.
Then he glanced at Mu Hanyi and said, "Go and meet the money!" Mu Hanyi understood and called the shopkeeper and said: "Our young master and the two military masters drank happily, a little drunk, and after a while, the two of them woke up, and said that my young master was drunk first, and was carried home by his subordinates, so as to save some face for his two military masters." "Let's stuff a tael of silver. The shopkeeper saw that there was a lot of money, so he happily obeyed the order.
It turned out that when Mu Hanyi poured the wine, he hid the "ecstasy" in his nails, and when he poured the wine for the first time, he did not put it in the cup. When the second time he poured the wine, he secretly flicked the medicinal powder hidden in the fingernail cover into the cups of the two officers, and the medicinal powder melted into the wine, but the two did not notice it, and when they drank the third glass, they immediately had a seizure and fell asleep.
There were many people in the dining hall, and getting drunk was the most common, but Mu Hanyi and Ayimu stood behind him and blocked everyone's sight, and no one saw it. Hu Zhenbang pretended to caress the back of Officer Hu, quietly untied the letter box he was carrying, took the paper medium and melted the fire paint, opened it and took a look, it was indeed a letter inside, but it was written in Chinese characters, it turned out that the text used in the Western Xia at that time was still Chinese characters, and later Li Yuanhao's ambition intensified and he founded the Western Xia script, which is a later story.
Hu Zhenbang saw that the envelope was written "Urgently present to the Western Xia King Li Yuanhao", and the inscription under it was "Tubo National Teacher Song Zanpu", he was slightly stunned, and said in his heart: "This Song Zanpu actually became the first national teacher, and he really has a good means." ”
He carefully melted the fire paint on the envelope, opened it and looked at it, but saw that the letter read: "Your Majesty Li Yuanhao, King of Western Xia: I am fortunate to be gracious, and the prince of Xu Contempt will marry your princess, and now I will be ordered by the king to send the dowry "Wujing General Essentials" 12 volumes to your country ten days later, and pray that the princess will welcome Her Majesty back to the country on the same day, and I am willing to marry the two confederations in exchange for eternal peace." Take the liberty of bothering, but hope to be lucky. Song Zanpu, the first national teacher of Tibet, respectfully. ”
After reading it, Hu Zhenbang folded the letter, sealed it as it was, put it in the letterbox, and put it into the burden on the back of the bearded officer, and said: "Time is pressing, this Songzanpu will go to meet his relatives in ten days, so it seems that the Tubo side still does not know about the second sister's escape from Western Xia." ”
Ayimu said: "At the beginning, I thought that Li Yuanhao was a martial artist, brave and unscrupulous, but now it seems that this Li Yuanhao is very scheming and should not be underestimated." ”
Mu Hanyi said: "Now should we rush directly to Western Xia, or do we try to sneak into the Tubo Palace first and find out the news?"
Hu Zhenbang said: "These two people must send the documents to Western Xia within three days, and if Li Yuanhao confirms it, then the 'Western Xia Princess' must be sent to Tubo within ten days." But now that Tubo still doesn't know about the disappearance of the 'Western Xia Gongfang', it means that Li Yuanhao must have blocked the news, and I don't know what Li Yuanhao's plans will be when the ten-day time limit comes, how to deal with it, if he refuses, won't he not be able to get this twelve-volume "General Essentials of the Martial Arts"?"
Mu Hanyi said: "Li Yuanhao is scheming, I think, we still have to rush to Western Xia before these two Tubo officers." ”
Ayimu also said: "Yes, eldest brother, little sister, I think we must enter Western Xia first, and then try according to the plan I said last time, if it is successful, then it will be fine." ”
Hu Zhenbang said: "That plan is very risky, I'm just worried that Li Yuanhao can't be easily fooled, but it is not good for the second sister, which is really embarrassing." ”
