Chapter 31: In the City of Chang'an (I)
Dugu Jian and Zhang Linxin had a full view of all the situations in the mansion, and understood that if they broke through at this time, whether it was day or night, they were afraid that it would be difficult to succeed, and they might even trap themselves in it. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Dugu Jian swept into the palace again, and said: "Lin'er, it seems that we have to find another way, these dogs, plus the big iron gate, if they want to rush in, it is already a difficult thing, and we still don't know the situation in the prison, it seems that it is impossible to break in or sneak attack." ”
Zhang Linxin was also embarrassed, she originally wanted to wait until the night to sneak in quietly and rescue Li San unconsciously. But in this situation, I am afraid that before I get close to the prison, the dogs will bark and lure all the guards over. She looked at Dugu Jian and said, "Brother Dugu, then what do we say?" Both of them were suddenly speechless, and they didn't know what to do. Zhang Linxin stomped his feet lightly, and said in annoyance: "If we can get those dogs away, even if there are more people, we can't stop us from sneaking into the cell to save people!"
It's not a way to stay here like this and stare at it, Dugu Jian turned around and walked around the house a few times, and after thinking about it, he said: "Lin'er, it's not a way for us to be in a hurry here, I think it's better to go to Chang'an City to inquire around first, and see if there is any other way that can work." If that Yao Gongzi is greedy for money, we will go to those traitors who are rich and unkind to get ten thousand taels of silver, and maybe we can bribe successfully and rescue Li San. Zhang Lin thought about it, yes, this method is also possible. He nodded with a smile and said, "Brother Dugu, you are still smart, let's go and inquire." ”
As he spoke, the two jumped out of the window again while no one was around. But when I walked out of a street, I found another difficult thing - this Chang'an City has experienced wars, and there are really not many people staying here. On the whole street, there are very few pedestrians to see. As far as they could see, there was not a single figure on the entire street. Turning out of the street again, they saw an open grocery store, and the two hurried over to inquire. How do you know that the owner of the shop doesn't know anything, which makes the two of them very helpless. Zhang Lin's mind moved, and he turned around and asked, "Boss, may I ask, which is the most famous restaurant in Chang'an City?" Dugu Jian heard Zhang Linxin ask, and immediately understood what she was going to do. This time, the owner of the shop didn't say that he didn't know, "Well, if you want to talk about the most famous restaurant in Chang'an City, then you have to count the Imperial Wine Pavilion in the east of the city, the wine there is no worse than the imperial wine in the palace, after drinking it once, you will never forget it in your life." As he spoke, the shopkeeper closed his eyes and slammed his mouth twice, as if he were savoring the taste of the wine.
Zhang Lin sneered in his heart, "It seems that you are also a drunkard, as if you have drunk imperial wine." The shopkeeper was about to argue with them, but unexpectedly, Zhang Linxin pulled Dugujian and ran out directly with a smile, without looking back, which made the shopkeeper very helpless, shaking his head and sighing and saying: "Oh, the world has really changed, this golden man is rampant, even the girl's family dares to run around on the street, and laughs at people like this, alas!"
The two of them trotted all the way to the Imperial Wine Pavilion in the east of Chang'an City. This restaurant is still a little imposing, there are several colorful flags in front of the door, and the plaque above the main entrance has three vigorous and powerful characters written on it - "Imperial Wine Pavilion". There were quite a few people here, and although it was not yet noon, there were already many well-dressed people sitting inside, drinking wine and talking loudly.
Dugu Jian and Zhang Linxin walked into the Imperial Wine Pavilion, and when even a junior came over, "Two guest officers, I don't know what you want to eat......?
"Xiao Er, is your shopkeeper here?" Dugu Jian directly interrupted him without waiting for Xiao Er to finish speaking. The little second was interrupted by him, although he was a little unhappy in his heart, he still replied with a smile: "I am here, our shopkeeper is there." As he spoke, he pointed to the counter and saw a well-dressed man sitting there. Dugu Jian took out a few copper plates, sent Xiao Er away, and walked directly to the counter with Zhang Linxin.
The shopkeeper was fine at this time, sitting at the counter, leaning back in his chair and closing his eyes. Dugu Jian coughed lightly and asked, "Shopkeeper, there is something to ask below." The shopkeeper opened his eyes and looked at Dugu Jian, stood up, and said, "Well, you can say it." ”
"Dare to ask the shopkeeper, what are the hobbies of the son of the Yao Governor of Chang'an City?"
Hearing Dugu Jian's question, the shopkeeper probably guessed something, and said with a smile: "Oh, you have something to ask Yao Gongzi to do, so you want to do what he likes, right?" Dugu Jian naturally didn't explain the truth, and when he saw the shopkeeper say this, he hurriedly said yes.
"If you want to ask Yao Gongzi's hobbies, you can be regarded as the right person. If you want to ask him to do something, send one or two beauties, Yao Gongzi is happy, what else will you not agree to? Even if you want to ask for an official and a half-job, you will definitely arrange it for you properly!"
Hearing the shopkeeper say this, Dugu Jian frowned, there was no way for him to break into the prison to save Li San, so he thought of using other methods. If, for the sake of this, another girl is pushed into the fire pit, it will be a great sin. Besides, they are still thinking about rescuing the girl who was kidnapped by Yao Gongzi yesterday. He had no choice but to ask again: "Shopkeeper, then doesn't this Yao Gongzi have any other hobbies, such as gold, silver and jewelry?" The shopkeeper laughed and asked, "This guest officer, do you think Yao Gongzi will be short of money?"
This sentence woke up Dugu Jian, Yao Gongzi's father, Yao Zhijie, took refuge in the Jin people and became a lackey, and he must have scavenged a lot of people's fat and ointment, and he couldn't eat, wear, and enjoy it, where would they care about money? In this way, it is indeed difficult to do. Just as he was hesitating, a junior second came over and said, "Big shopkeeper, the young man on the second floor is asking for wine again, he didn't order food this morning, he drank two jars of wine, do you want to give it?"
The shopkeeper raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is it the young man in white who came this morning?" Xiao Er nodded again and again, "Yes, it's him, seeing that he has been frowning and drinking, I guess there is something on his mind that he can't think of." And he also has a sword, if he wants to drink like this again, in case he gets drunk, we won't be able to do it. ”
"Brother?" Zhang Linxin heard this, and suddenly thought that Zhang Rumeng should have arrived in Chang'an, and the shopkeeper and Xiao Er were indeed very similar to their brother, so they couldn't help but call out. When Dugu Jian heard Zhang Linxin say this, he also guessed that what they said was most likely Zhang Rumeng. So he said to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, listen to your words to Xiao Er, this person seems to be one of our old friends, can you take us to have a look." ”
"Well, if it's really your friend, please take him away quickly, our store is small, and I really don't dare to let go of any mess. Xiao Er, you quickly take these two guest officers upstairs to have a look. Listening to the shopkeeper's orders, the little two hurriedly responded, stretched out his hand and bowed his head, "Two guest officers, please come with me." After speaking, he led the way and walked up to the second floor with Dugu Jian and Zhang Linxin.
Most of the second floors of the Imperial Wine Pavilion are private rooms, so people are not disturbed by others, so there are relatively few people. Xiao Er led the two of them up to the second floor and pointed to a private seat near the window, "The two guest officers are the one." The two of them took a closer look, and the one who was holding the wine jug and looking up to drink, it was not Zhang Rumeng, who else could there be? Zhang Linxin hurriedly walked over, grabbed his arm, and shouted: "Brother, how much wine have you drunk? Don't drink it!" Dugu Jian also hurriedly followed, snatched his wine jug from Zhang Rumeng's hand, and shouted: "Brother Zhang!"
"Brother!" Zhang Linxin pushed Zhang Rumeng again, he had some reaction, looked at the two people, rubbed his eyes again, and made sure that he didn't look at the flowers, before he replied: "Sister, Brother Dugu, why are you here too?
Zhang Rumeng shook her head, patted her face again, looked at her sister, and asked, "I, am I drunk?" Oh, yes, yes, I almost forgot, there is one more thing to do, you wait here, wait for me, I'll go back, come back." As he spoke, he picked up the sword on the table and stood up slowly, Dugu Jian was very puzzled, he didn't know what he was going to do, and shouted: "Brother Zhang....." Before he could say anything, he was stopped by Zhang Rumeng waving his hand.
Seeing that he was leaving, Zhang Linxin grabbed him, "Brother, are you okay, are you going?" Zhang Rumeng pushed Zhang Linxin away, shook his head and replied: "No, it's okay, I, I'll be back soon." Dugu Jian saw that he was drunk and his mind was not clear, and he was worried that something would happen, so he followed: "Brother Zhang, what's the matter? Why don't you go with your younger brother?" Zhang Rumeng waved his hand, "No, you don't have to! You just wait here for me, just do it, and I'll be back soon." With that, he staggered down.
Dugujian and Zhang Linxin glanced at each other, and wanted to follow him, but they were stopped by Zhang Rumeng three times and twice, and the two were also very helpless, so they had to sit down and wait for Zhang Rumeng to come back.
But it was said that Zhang Rumeng walked out of the Imperial Wine Pavilion slowly, looked around the street with confused eyes, and said to himself: "Chengdong, Qilipo, well, no, yes, it's Qilipo." As he spoke, he raised his feet and took a few steps forward, but suddenly stopped again, "Where is Qilipo?" He held his head with his right hand and thought about it, but he didn't know if it was because of drunkenness or something else, and he couldn't think of anything for a while.
At this time, a cold wind blew, Zhang Rumeng seemed to be blown by the wind, sobered up a little, patted his head, and smirked: "I'm really stupid, Qilipo in the east of the city, isn't that in the east of the city." Knowing the direction, he staggered toward the east gate.
