Chapter Eighty-Six: The Banquet Before the Plum
"Chen Bai Linchuan welcomes the prince. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info" Bai Linchuan Shili.
Coming out with him to greet him was Bai Anshi and a noble son with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, extremely handsome, but a very poor face. His eyes were sharp, and he saluted Bai Linchuan, and then stood aside quietly.
I think he is Bai Anli, the governor of Bai Du.
"Taifu forgives sins. Su Musha replied: "Su Musha lingered outside the bamboo forest in Wuyi Lane, and when he came back, he was hungry and smelled the fresh aroma of wine and meat in Taifu's backyard, and he really couldn't walk, so he could only bother." ”
Bai Linchuan didn't care, turned around and invited Su Musha into the courtyard, and said: "The prince is not polite, the Bai Mansion can attract the prince to the door with delicacies, and it is also a good story to spread it." "Haha" smiled, Bai Linchuan saw Ye Qiudi and Su Musha walking together, changed the topic, and asked, "I don't know who the girl next to the prince is?"
"Ye Qiudi. Ye Qiudi nodded.
"It turned out to be the Lord of the Leaf Valley, disrespectful and disrespectful. Bai Linchuan arched his hand, and Bai Anli, who was beside him, withdrew his gaze from a distance, and looked at Ye Qiudi a few times.
Su Musha and the others walked in front, and the green-shirted girl Zhai Er followed happily, and after stepping into the threshold, she took a step back, and at the same time stuck out her tongue to the servant and said, "I'm in, I'm coming out again, hehe." So saying, he stepped through the door again. The servant was stunned for a while, and before he could come back to his senses, he saw the green-shirted girl retreat again, grabbed the rolling who was sitting in place, made a grimace at the servant again, and dragged him into the door, "Delicious, I'm coming!" The girl's excited voice came, making the servant cry and laugh.
The back door is the back garden, the surrounding grass and trees are decaying, there are few pavilions and pavilions, the lights are dim, it is slightly remote, it is estimated that the back door is usually entered and exited by the servants, if it is not for Su Musha's whim, Bai Linchuan will not come here to welcome guests in his life.
The maid led the way with a yarn lantern in front, and Su Musha and Bai Linchuan slowly followed.
"I heard that Taifu is entertaining distinguished guests, I don't know who can afford such hospitality from Taifu. Su Musha asked.
"They are all ministers of the old and decrepit halls and colleagues of the eldest son. Bai Linchuan said with a smile: "Yuanchen is coming, and the eldest son and his colleagues will return to the capital to report on their work." I think that they have a lot of places to take care of each other on the battlefield, so they hold banquets to enhance their friendship in robes. ”
"It should be. Su Musha nodded, and they walked fifty or sixty steps along the pebblestone path, turned a rockery, and their vision suddenly opened up. In front of me is a pond with plum trees in full bloom on the edge of the pond. The lights under the forest are brilliant, the two sides of the table are lined up, the silk and bamboo orchestras are equipped, and the dancers are waiting on the side, but they are resting with the staggered chips on the table, thinking that they are waiting for the Su curtain to cover.
Su Musha was led to him, and saw that only a few ministers of the same hall had seen him when he occasionally saw him in the early dynasty, but the others did not know any of them.
However, looking at them, they are either tigers and bears, or full of spirit, I think they must be Jingzhou sergeants.
Su Musha stood on the main seat and arched his hand: "Su is hungry, and he happened to smell the delicacies at the banquet, so he couldn't help but come over to ask for a glass of wine to eat, which disturbed everyone's interest, sin, sin." ”
The officers present stood up and hurriedly said that they did not dare. Su Musha raised the wine bottle again, toasted everyone, and sat down, so that everyone present could be unrestrained and comfortable.
Ye Qiudi sat next to Su Musha, and the green-shirted girl Zhai Er also wanted to come over, but was pulled away by Xiao Jiu. Bai Linchuan was empathetic and ordered someone to set up a table on the side behind Su Musha, and the little girl ate and drank from the sea, so as not to hurt the prince's face.
Bai Jiagui is one of the four great families of the Southern Dynasties, natural wine is good wine, and food is good food.
Ye Qiudi took a sip, her eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but raise her head and swallow all the bottles of wine, so that Bai Anshi, who was sitting on the side and paying attention to her, couldn't help but smack her tongue. Ye Qiudi poured another bottle of wine for himself, and was about to drink it, but was taken away by Su Musha, who was gossiping with Bai Linchuan.
Ye Qiudi frowned, his eyes revealed a fierce light, like a little tiger that had run away from a rabbit, and his right hand twisted fiercely around Su Mu's waist.
"Drink slowly!" Su Musha gritted his teeth and endured the pain and whispered to Ye Qiudi, and after that, he pushed the wine bottle to her again.
"Oh. Miss Ye smiled, and her temperament became gentle.
"Bai Dudu, this king heard that Xishu sent envoys to the court, and now he has arrived in the territory, I wonder if he can settle them when the governor returns?" Su Musha really didn't like Bai Anli's ruthless and evil temperament, so he couldn't help but put up a little shelf.
The corners of Bai Anli's angular mouth curled, and he was about to answer, when the gray-clothed servant behind him leaned over and poured him a bottle of wine, and gently pressed his hand on the back of Bai Anli's hand, and then stood up straight. Su Musha didn't see it, and the others didn't see it, and the gray-clothed man felt secretive, but he didn't want to be seen by Ye Qiudi.
Ye Qiudi only noticed the man in gray like this.
Usually extreme.
If it weren't for his small actions, Ye Qiudi really wouldn't have realized his existence.
Bai Anli restrained his good temperament and said to Su Musha: "Back to the prince's words, not long after the minister set off for the capital, the envoy of Shu State handed over the official document into the territory of our court. However, the prince doesn't have to worry too much, the minister has already asked his subordinates to make proper arrangements, and he will be able to reach the capital safely in a few days. ”
Su Musha chuckled: "I don't care if I am dead or alive, if I die, it is better, and I will save Jiankang from making trouble." ”
That's not true. Bai Linchuan read poetry and books, but he was not a corrupt Confucian, he didn't talk about hypocrisy, and he said: "If they go out of the pond in the Southern Dynasty, then the Southern Dynasty will jump into the Yellow River, and they can't wash it away." At that time, it is inevitable that they will be blamed by all parties, and Yan Guo and Hou Qin will find the opportunity to step on it, and the situation of our dynasty will not be good at that time. ”
"Everything has a shadow hall!" Su Musha said to Bai Linchuan: "The shadow hall has done a lot of private things, and I don't care about this one, if the envoy really has an accident, no matter who did it, it will be pushed to the head of Gananliu." As everyone knows, Yingtang has been planning to deal with the Southern Dynasty, and if Murong Bugui and the old grandmother of Later Qin really believe that it was the Chu State that did it, then their brains must not be very good. ”
"Murong doesn't know, but Old Grandmother Hou Qin's brain has long been bad. There were rough people in the hall, and when they heard the words, they caused everyone present to laugh.
Ye Qiudi took advantage of Su Mu's words to drink a few glasses of wine, but his eyes never left the gray-clothed servant. Seeing that he looked careless when he heard Su Musha talking about the envoy of Shu, and when he talked about the shadow hall, his eyes were slightly afraid, and when everyone present laughed, he laughed with everyone present like an ordinary person.
When he smiled, he turned his head and made contact with Ye Qiudi's gaze for a moment, and then timidly moved away, as if he was like other servants, but he didn't know that Ye Qiudi paid more and more attention to him.
In Ye Qiudi's view, the flaw of the man in gray lies in playing the image of an ordinary person.
The man in gray may have only noticed that Ye Qiudi was observing him, but he didn't see that the back of Bai Anli's hand had been a little abnormal since he pressed it, his eyebrows were slightly raised, some disgusted, fleeting, and then he took the opportunity to wipe the wine stains, strolling and wiping the back of his hand and wiping it carefully, thinking that he had some kind of cleanliness.
The servants guarding the door were very afraid of the eldest prince, and it was impossible for the servants waiting beside him not to know his taboos, so it seemed that the relationship between the man in gray and Bai Anli was not ordinary.
