Chapter 11: Wine Fighting (I)
Ji Chengche didn't guess right this time, Xiang Lin didn't come to him to fight, but to drink.
The two found a quiet tavern at the foot of Lingshan Mountain and sat down, and Hu Xiyuan and Ying Yunwei sat not far away.
Xiang Lin raised his glass and said, "This cup, thank you!"
The two wine glasses touched slightly, and Ji Chengche asked, "You have ascended the throne?"
Xiang Lin bowed his head and said: "The country cannot be without a king for a day. ”
Ji Chengche said: "Congratulations, I finally got what I wanted." But I don't think you're going to be bored enough to come all the way to show off the emperor's majesty in front of me, right?"
Xiang Lin drank all the wine in the cup and said, "I owe you a favor." ”
Ji Chengche said disapprenously: "If you are not afraid of thieves, you are afraid of thieves, how do you want to pay it back?"
Xiang Lin stared at Ji Cheng for a moment, and said slowly: "Leave Wang Rou behind." ”
Ji Cheng's face sank, and the corners of his lips raised a sneer: "Is it left for you to be used as a harem of three thousand?"
Xiang Lin said lightly: "You can't give her happiness." You will not marry her, nor can you promise to love her and protect her for the rest of your life, you can't! She died for you, and she can't recover her memory until now, and I don't allow you to hurt her or deceive her again!"
Thinking of Wang Rou's sacrifice for herself, Ji Chengqing's chest felt a hot pain, and he took a deep breath and said, "I can't give it to her, you can't give it either." But I owe her, and I have to pay it back. ”
Xiang Lin sneered: "What do you use to pay it back? In addition to Tang Xueluo in your heart, can you still tolerate other people's positions?! What she exchanged for her life is just your sympathy?!"
Ji Chengche glared at Xiang Lin and said slowly: "I can't give it to her, and you can't give it to you!"
Xiang Lin sighed and said, "It seems that we don't have to talk about it." But—"
He stared at Ji Cheng with a fierce look in his eyes and said, "There is one sentence that you are indeed right. I'm a thief, I'm just thinking about stealing Wang Rou!"
Ji Chengche didn't expect Xiang Lin to be so straightforward, looking at the other party's expression, it was definitely not an intentional pastime to laugh, but it was really possible to hide Wang Rou.
He pushed away his glass and asked, "Are your injuries healed?"
"What do you mean?" Xiang Lin's gaze turned cold, becoming as sharp as a gun.
"Emperor Qingben, why be a thief?" Ji Chengche didn't seem to feel it at all, and said with a smile, "In order to teach you to be a man and walk the right path for your dead father, I don't mind beating Your Majesty." ”
Ying Yunwei, who was behind Xiang Lin, changed his face when he heard this, now Xiang Lin is the emperor of Great Chu, what Ji Chengche said earlier is already very excessive, but he can still endure it on top of this great achievement in counterinsurgency, who knows that this guy actually intensified his efforts and was ashamed to beat Xiang Lin, isn't this disrespectful to the emperor and disrespectful to the entire Great Chu Dynasty?
However, Ji Chengqing said that the cloud was light and light, and Xiang Lin was not angry, but said with an excited look on his face: "It seems that you have never won against me." ”
Ji Cheng's clear eyes stared at Xiang Lin without blinking, and the eyes of the two silently clashed in the air, and the temperature of the surrounding void plummeted as if it was frozen in ice.
Ying Yunwei saw Ji Chengche and Xiang Lin talking stiffly, and was about to shout and step forward, but was suddenly grabbed by Hu Xiyuan and said, "It's none of your business!"
Ying Yunwei broke free and said, "That kid wants to be disrespectful to His Majesty, why are you pulling me?"
If he hadn't been convinced by Hu Xiyuan's wisdom, he would have been slapped earlier.
Hu Xiyuan smiled bitterly: "If Your Majesty wants to make a move, he won't just bring you and me." ”
Before the words fell, I suddenly heard Ji Chengqing slap the table and shouted: "Xiao Er, change to a big bowl!"
The little second in the tavern didn't recognize Ji Chengche and Xiang Lin, and only thought that the two nobles were at odds and wanted to fight and drink. He has seen this kind of thing a lot, and he didn't care about it at the moment, and immediately changed the big bowl.
"Wine. Xiang Lin smiled coldly at Ji Chengche and ordered, "Go to the twenty altars first." ”
"Twenty altars?" Xiao Er thought his ears were wrong.
Xiang Lin looked at Ji Cheng's indifferent appearance, and the fire slammed upward: "Forty altars!"
"Huh?" Xiao Er's legs trembled with fright, thinking that forty jars of wine don't talk about people, and the cow will have to get drunk to death if he drinks it, these two people are young and vigorous, and if they die here, they won't be able to eat and walk around.
Seeing this, the shopkeeper of the tavern hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Two sons, the shop just opened early in the morning, and I really didn't have time to prepare so much wine. ”
Xiang Lin said impatiently: "A stick of incense, if I can't see forty jars of wine here, your tavern will not be opened." ”
The shopkeeper didn't expect that the handsome young man in front of him was actually the new emperor of Dachu, but when he heard the undoubted majesty in the other party's tone, his heart trembled and he somehow blurted out: "Dog, serve wine!"
Five, ten, and twenty altars......
I saw that the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper, the two of them were busy like marquees, and soon put forty jars of spirits in front of Ji Chengqing and Xiang Lin.
At the same time, there were two guys in the town who didn't know whether to live or die, and the news spread like wings, which was better and more interesting than the siege of the imperial city.
This made it bitter to follow Gou Bizi, who was secretly protecting Xiang Lin, he pretended to be a hawker who walked the rivers and lakes and crowded in the crowd, looked left and right, and saw that everyone looked like an assassin with bad intentions, and couldn't help but stomp his feet in a hurry, and secretly slandered Xiang Lin: "My lord, you really don't think of yourself as an emperor, why are you crazy here, and you don't let people live?"
Xiang Lin naturally couldn't hear Gou Bizi's complaint in his heart, so he first picked up a jar of wine and put it on the table in front of him, and said, "Whoever wins, who takes care of her." ”
Ji Chengche glanced at Xiang Lin, and without saying a word, he picked up the altar wine, patted the sealing mud, raised his head and poured it directly into his mouth.
Xiang Lin didn't say a word, and he also set up the wine jar and swallowed it in one go.
The people who watched the excitement inside and outside the tavern were never afraid of too many things, and they cheered in unison: "Good, happy!"
Gou Bizi, who was lying on the tree and was as anxious as ants on a hot pot, couldn't wait to punch all these people who watched the excitement into the ditch, but Hu Xiyuan and Ying Yunwei sat upright, and they didn't have the slightest intention of getting up to persuade them to drink, so angry that he even scolded these two Wang Balambs together.
However, before Gou Bizi could say a few swear words, Ji Chengche and Xiang Lin had already killed a whole jar of spirits in the tavern, and picked up the second jar without pause.
"Don't get drunk today," Ji Chengche patted the mud open, and a strong smell of alcohol hit him, "The one standing is responsible for sending the drunk party home." ”
"It's a deal. Xiang Lin sneered: "I don't mind sending you home, even if it's your grandmother's house." ”
Ji Chengche was stunned, he and Xiang Lin were born to be angry, and they fought to the death since they first met, but they rarely heard this guy burst into foul language. No matter who has come before or after, he always looks like a detached and cold nobleman, and God knows what medicine he took wrong today.
"Your grandma!" Ji Chengche scolded and never refused to suffer, and was stunned and immediately returned it.
"Bang!" Xiang Lin drank the second jar of spirits, threw the empty jar aside, stretched out his hand to wipe the wine stains from the corner of his lips, and smiled with a smile as if he was a little drunk: "Isn't my grandma your grandma?"
Ji Chengche suddenly noticed that Xiang Lin was a little wrong today, this guy has always acted rigorously and uprightly, and he likes to make a joke, not to mention throwing the wine jar casually, even if he drinks with a bowl, it is impossible.
Could it be that he was stimulated by something, or was he so excited that he was crazy about his ascension to the throne?
"Did Aunt Yu tell you?" Ji Chengche slapped the third jar of wine.
"What?" Xiang Lin asked slurred as he drank.
"Your grandma and my grandma. ”
Xiang Lin's movements paused, and a wisp of inexplicable smile hung on the corner of his lips: "It's really funny, the eldest brother is dead, the second brother is dead, and the third brother is finished." I thought there was no brother in the world, but who knew that another one would pop up, but it would still be you. ”
Ji Chengche put down the wine jar and said coldly: "Yes, why don't I feel that you treat me as a brother." ”
The conversation between the two was invariably changed to a secret transmission, and others heard it even though their lips were moving. Otherwise, His Majesty Da Chu turned out to be the half-brother of the prince of the Han Dynasty, and such royal secrets will spread, and I am afraid that it will be at the top of the gossip rumors list overnight.
"I'm not a brother to you. Xiang Lin shook his head very dryly and said, "But it tastes good to have such an annoying bastard as your opponent." ”
The two of them poured wine into their mouths while talking, and they saw that the jars on the table were flying one after another like meteors, dazzling people, and they had each entered their stomachs in an instant.
Both of their faces glowed red, their eyes became brighter and brighter, and their movements did not slow down in the slightest.
The spectators inside and outside the tavern looked at Ji Chengche and Xiang Lin intently, as if they had seen two desolate monsters.
Don't say it's five jars of wine, even if it's five jars of boiled water, ordinary people will already break their bellies if they drink it.
"Bet, bet!" The nimble man suddenly came to his senses and shouted in the crowd: "I bet on the boy in white to win!"
", it's clear that the black-robed guy can drink better!
Everyone started to bet, Ying Yunwei's cheeks twitched, his fists crackled, and he planned to throw all these guys who dared to bet on the Great Chu Emperor into prison.
Hu Xiyuan patted his hand and said, "Don't worry too much, Your Majesty is drinking on Xing's head." ”
Ying Yunwei was extremely depressed and said angrily: "Your Majesty, what's wrong?"
Hu Xiyuan sighed and said, "If I know, then I am an immortal." Maybe...... He just suddenly wanted to drink. ”
- Your Majesty suddenly wants to drink?
Although Ying Yunwei had always believed in Hu Xiyuan's clever calculations, this time he scratched his head suspiciously.
"Let's think he's venting. Hu Xiyuan said with a faint sadness: "The new monarch has been enthroned with internal and external troubles, the pressure of His Majesty is too great these days, coupled with the sadness of the betrayal of the deceased brother of the emperor, it is excellent that he did not collapse and go crazy." ”
Compared with the former reason, the latter explanation is obviously much more credible.
Ying Yunwei nodded and said, "That's right, so many deadly troubles, it's also thanks to Your Majesty that you can handle them properly and in an orderly manner." But...... Why did he come to Lingshan to find His Highness Cheng Che for a drink?"
Hu Xiyuan said: "Since ancient times, the emperor has been so lonely, Your Majesty has no brothers and friends, who else can you find if you don't look for His Royal Highness Chengche?"
Ying Yunwei wondered: "But they are not ......"
Hu Xiyuan smiled slightly: "Sometimes opponents are more confidants than brothers and friends. ”
