At this time, Cao Yingting rushed into the store, panting and pouting, came to Ren Tianqi's table with a straight neck, nodded Ren Tianqi with his hand, waited for a long time, and waited for a while before he smiled and said: "This master's legs and feet are really fast as lightning, so fast that people are unbelievably fast, I admire it." In Xia Cao Yingting, ask for the name of the master. ”

Ren Tianqi got up and hugged his fists and said with a smile: "Brother Cao is polite." A native of Guangling, Xiayangzhou, his surname is Tianqi. ”

Cao Yingting smiled in a blink of an eye and said: "It must be the three heroes of Guangling, and the three old heroes are noble?"

Ren Tianqi was taken aback and said with a smile: "It's Jiazun." The trivial matters in the small place also make Brother Cao remember, maybe he has too much care. ”

Cao Yingting waved his hand, sat down opposite him and said with a smile: "Hey, why should Brother Ren be suspicious, Guangling Banzhu Sword Ren Songyi is famous all over the world, and Brother Tai is so skilled, it is not surprising that he thinks so much." It's very cloudy in the lower eyes, and he should be punished with three glasses of wine, but there are many people here, and there is a lot of noise, I don't know if Brother Ren can move to my room for a while. ”

The white eagle glared, slapped the table and got up, and scolded: "Fart, Ge Laozi's you can go wherever you say, who are you! You are the emperor and his father-in-law! My brother is extremely expensive, what kind of bird can you invite anyone?"

A little red waved his hand to stop the white eagle, bowed, and said with a smile: "My brother's surname is refreshing, he can't speak, and Cao Yingying can't see it." However, what Brother Xia said is not unreasonable, we have seen Brother Cao's skills, and we are very envious, but we are also quite worried. Of course, it's not that the subordinates are reserved, but in this chaotic place, we have female dependents, and we are not familiar with the place, so it is not too much to worry and be cautious. If Brother Cao really wants to have a glass of wine, then ask Brother Cao to come to my place for a chat, how about it?"

Everyone stared at Cao Yingting.

Cao Yingting patted his head, suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "Look at me, a stupid and stupid person, I don't want to do what I want, don't want to be with others." Well, go to your dwelling and drink a few cups, and the good ones are the contents of this cup, but I am afraid that it will disturb a few treasures, and I am afraid that it will be inappropriate. ”

Ren Tianqi smiled faintly and said, "It's okay, the rivers and lakes are a family, and there are many friends and multiple roads." Please ask this little second brother to bring more wine and food. The third brother led the way. Ren Tianqi glanced at the double eagles.

White Eagle raised his voice and continued: "What, there are so many friends! This world is that relatives are better than friends, friends are better than living people, and living people are better than being single!"

Ren Tianqi smiled and shook his head.

Cao Yingting smiled to himself.

When the accounts were settled, they got up and went back upstairs.

The county lord and the other women all went upstairs to rest, while Cao Yingting and everyone came downstairs to the living room. Gong Ming and Steward Ming stood with pots on the side, Ren Tianqi, a little red, black and white eagles were present, and everyone exchanged names and pushed the cup to drink.

The hall is arranged in a high-profile and elegant manner, the red curtain hangs down the ground, the silk ears are bundled, the books and antiques are dazzling, the palace lamps are tall, the flower arrangement is arranged, the four treasures of the study, the incense floats, and there is a carbon stove early, the flame is booming, and it is warm.

Ren Tianqi was quite uncomfortable in his heart, he didn't want to contact strangers in his heart, and he was thinking about who was visiting, not to mention that he was living elsewhere, and it was already late at night. Therefore, he sat down with a strong spirit, and was not very enthusiastic. If it weren't for a little red to say that this person is quite skilled, he would have gotten up to see off the guests for fear of losing his manners.

After drinking three glasses of wine together, Cao Yingting stopped the cup and said with a smile: "Cao is really lucky today, and he is especially happy." ”

A little red smiled and said, "Oh, what is Brother Cao's pleasure about? But please tell me about it, let us have fun together." ”

Cao Yingting smiled and said: "Don't tell lies in front of the Ming people, don't hide from all the brothers, Cao is the only three good in this life, the first recommendation is to ask for a red face, although there are three rooms and four concubines in the family, but once you leave home and have no powder, the night time is quite lonely and not easy to pass; Cao, who was born extremely reluctant to do business, had no choice but to disobey his wishes. No, when Cao first came to Andang, he met the love saint of the rivers and lakes, and the thousand-handed scholar was a little red Brother Wen, and he saw the master in the same way, and he was really fortunate in three lives, how could he be unhappy? I can't wait for Brother Wen to pass on one or two tricks in this wonderful technique, so that Cao Mou will not be able to use it in this life. It's just that I'm afraid that Brother Wen is not as low-minded as Cao, and he will definitely look down on him. Cao first toasted Brother Wen three glasses of wine to show his admiration. ”

Cao Yingting got up, snatched the wine glass in front of the black and white double eagle, dipped it three glasses in a row, and dried it all.

Cao Yingting can speak well and is agile.

Ren Tianqi, who was not interested, heard that this person's martial arts experience was like his own first study in Shaolin, and couldn't help but widen his eyes, and he wanted to ask about the situation in the temple, and when the words came to his mouth, he looked up and saw Cao Yingting toasting three cups in a row, very bold, and stopped, thinking that the uncle lived in Shaolin secretly, and it was not easy to clear the light, so why bother to add a lot of burden, and don't ask;

Seeing this, a little red got up and saluted, saluted in return, and said with a smile: "Brother Cao is smiling, how can my brother have such a look, they are all friends in the rivers and lakes to show love, and the words of playfulness are not enough evidence, I dare not take it." ”

Cao Yingting was about to plead, Black Eagle got up and snatched back the wine glass, and said: "Brother Cao, Ge Laozi, I was born to like straightforwardness, you are enough friends, brother I have no other hobbies, only greedy for the things in this cup, come, respect you three cups." ”

White Eagle smiled: "Ge Laozi's Wu also sponsors three cups on the side. ”

The three of them didn't care about the others, and they drank six glasses together.

White Eagle stared at him with wide eyes and said, "The surname is Cao, what kind of thing are you showing to the errand boy, how can you be so good?"

Cao Yingting reached into his arms and took out something and handed it over.

Black Eagle took it and took a look, and he knew the inspection token of the inspector of the capital of the Imperial City of the Dajin Kingdom.

Black Eagle put down the cup, passed the card to the others, nodded, smacked his lips, and said with a smile: "Brother Cao, don't hide it from you, you are right, this Wen Lao Er, it is true that he is a saint and a master of chasing girls." At first, I was trapped elsewhere because of the girl's pants, and I was rescued by our brothers to survive. He's a thief crying out to catch a thief. No, I just saw the woman in green in the restaurant, and she went up with a face to say something about her sister, but people didn't look at her. Shame on you, laughing to death, and calling yourself a love saint! ”

The twin eagles laughed.

Bai Ying smiled and continued: "Later, it was my brother and sister who recited a few ancient words before they were relieved, and the girl was moved, so she came to see a salute." Wen Laoer's love is not spiritual. ”

The two of them laughed heartily.

A little red An Ran Taizhi, smiling and toasting with Ren Tianqi.

Cao Yingting hurriedly shook his hand again and again, and said with a smile: "Hey, your second master is not a person in this way, and he doesn't understand the mystery of this. If the person you want to love knows, your heart is moving, not necessarily to have a show, perhaps, a look, a frown, enough, this is God's heart, inner understanding. Brother Wen is a famous man here, and his every move is something that our rude people can understand!"

"Good, wonderful, Brother Cao is really Tingyu's confidant, and his comments are incisive. Come, please drink three cups together for the sake of love. A little red heard overjoyed, glanced at the eagles, hurriedly got up and took the cup first, and the bright bottom was respectful.

Cao Yingting hurriedly toasted together.

Ren Tianqi smiled slightly.

Ren Tianqi thought about what Cao Yingting said is not unreasonable, the second brother and the woman in green in the hotel are teasing, and they are all in line with what Cao Yingting said, and they are already three points of faith in Cao Yingting. Ren Tianqi has been a person in the seven doors, and knows that a person's life is not too much, just two or three, which is determined by the limit of people, and people are not deep and good can not be analyzed incisively, and a few words are the condensation of a lifetime of experience, not something that can be learned.

After three cups, a little red fell into the cup, and said with a smile: "My brother said that my literary talent is not as good as Ren Xian's brother, which is the truth." Wen was willing to bow down. How about inviting Brother Cao to comment on the wine today?"

Cao Yingting heard the surprise, oh, and said with a smile: "Respect is better than obeying fate." ”

Ren Tianqi was stunned, Cao Yingting just took a step in front of the table, and with his skills, he had already heard it, how could he pretend not to know this, let me try again.

Ren Tianqi said with a smile: "Second brother, there is no need, it is a graffiti work for a while, and it is difficult to get into the lobby, so as not to make Brother Cao laugh." What's more, Brother Cao has already heard about it. Don't talk about it. ”

Cao Yingting waved his hand again and again, and said with a smile: "Brother Ren doesn't know anything, the hotel is noisy, and Cao only cares about drinking, so he doesn't care much about it." Ashamed, ashamed. ”

Ren Tianqi thought about it.

A little red wine is strong, who cares about Ren Tianqi's persuasion, glanced at Ren Tianqi, already knew Ren Tianqi's intentions, and smiled slightly. got up and took the pen and paper, waved it on the table, handed the paper to Cao Yingting, and said with a smile: "The last one is a patchwork of the bottom, the middle one is the work of my brothers, and the next one is the county, hey, no, it is the writing of the younger brothers and sisters." ”

Cao Yingting lowered his head to read carefully, savored for a moment, raised his head and smiled slightly, coughed lightly, and said, "Then Cao Mou will be bold." ”

A little red fan smiled and said: "Where do we have so many poor rules, please feel free to talk about it if you have something to say." ”

Cao Yingting said with a smile: "The green-clothed woman in the store, Cao, has also seen it, and she has a bit of charm. Brother Wen's love is sincere, and his admiration can be expressed, "But when I see people going to Yi, I still return" is a sentence that can be expressive, it is a clear pen, high. ”

Ren Tianqi nodded.

Cao Yingting said: "Brother Ren's work of the treasure and the boudoir, perhaps out of helplessness, is not sincere, just plainly confessing the good makeup of the green-clothed woman, it is actually a social act, decent and thoughtful, the seams are tight, and the water does not leak, which makes people unable to find the gap." Bao's sharp thinking and ingenious speech can be called the best of the three. ”

A little red glanced at Ren Tianqi opposite each other, and his heart was really like this, this person was so extraordinary. Ren Tianqi has already believed in it six times.

Cao Yingting looked at the paper and frowned: "Brother Ren's masterpiece, Cao is ignorant, and he doesn't know what the four seasons, peach lotus, and Xiaosan refer to, so Cao doesn't dare to make fallacies." ”

A little red heard that he laughed, and he was amazed, cocked his thumb, and said: "Brother Cao is really good, both civil and military." At a glance, I can see the ingenuity in the poem, which really makes me sigh to myself. ”

A little red paused, and said with a smile: "My younger brother and sister are full of words, and the four girls are named Chun Tao, Xia He, Qiu Yue, and Dong Xue; A little red said and glanced at Gong Ming on the side.

Cao Yingting was shocked when he heard this, hurriedly pushed the stool and left the table, bowed down to Ren Tianqigong, and said with a smile: "Brother Ren is really Li Bai is alive, and Wenqu Xing is down to earth." Such a civil and military genius is rare in the world. Wandering among the people, abandoned among the grass and trees, it's a pity, it's a pity. ”

Ren Tianqi hurriedly got up and hugged each other, and said with a smile: "Brother Cao is laughing." How dare you defile the high temple of the court?"

Cao Yingting returned to his seat and said with a smile: "Hey, Brother Ren's words are bad." I want you to be a scholarly family and a family of eunuchs. The past dynasties are both civil and military, and the uncle of the house Song Yigong once ranked on the right side of the military department, and he tried his best to be loyal to the country. Why should Brother Ren be so disheartened about the future?"

Ren Tianqi was taken aback, and asked with a smile: "How can Brother Cao be so familiar with the affairs of the imperial court?

Cao Yingting nodded and said: "Exactly, the ancestors of the family used to be the envoy of the Huainan Festival, and the father of the family was once the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and his protégés are all over the world, and he can also be regarded as the home of the eunuch." Cao Mou became a year, and the door also wanted me to find an official and a half-job in the court, and it was not difficult to think about it, but he had no interest in being an official, so he did business with others, making money was small, and freedom was big, Cao was lazy. But the connections in the family are still there. ”

Everyone nodded.

Ren Tianqi is already fully convinced.

Cao Yingting turned his head and whispered to Ren Tianqi: "Brother Ren and Cao are both children of the official family, and they should inherit the official career as the right way, why do they also go out to do business now, presumably there must be a reason for this?"

Ren Tianqi looked up at the lamp, which seemed to be motionless, long, red, and making a slight burning sound, so he remembered his childhood, lowered his head and sighed, shook his head, and said: "Although the situation is the same, the reasons are very different. Brother Cao is a person in the surname, and it is rare to meet, so you might as well tell Brother Cao about it. ”

It is true that the most difficult thing in the world is loneliness, loneliness, the kind of grievance that has nowhere to vomit and nowhere to express joy. People are the most afraid of being omitted and forgotten, which is the most fearful thing for people; people need to resonate, and the objects of resonance are strange, but not necessarily people.

Cao Yingting nodded.

Ren Tianqi said with a smile: "Hundreds of years ago, the ancestor served as the assassin of Suzhou, and then became an official in successive dynasties. It hasn't been broken for hundreds of years. Recently, after the branch moved to Guangling, it was far away from the clan and its strength was weak, coupled with the chaos of the heavens, the imperial court was sluggish, and many family members abandoned their official positions; without the power of the elite, it was inevitable to be bullied. In the next want to change this situation, determined to go out to learn art, since the age of seven to wander around, art has not been learned, but started to trade. No, these are not only brothers, but also partner shareholders. There is no way to serve the country, and there is no ambition to serve the country and save the people. Look at what the court is doing now, it's better not to be an official. ”

Ren Tianqi shook his head and said, his expression was gloomy, like a river and lake, after the wind and waves, he could not jump through the bundle of hair on the embankment and flow freely, nor would he be as calm as water, no waves, but he just slapped on the shore again and again, and shouted one after another.

Cao Yingting also sighed, was silent for a moment, and said with a smile: "How should a few brothers view the current situation?"

Black Hawk shouted, "It's really boring, Ge Laozi, drink well, and talk about this boring thing." Okay, don't talk about bullshit official family affairs. Our brothers have eaten less grievances when they become officials? Who is the emperor and is not a ghost? The world is as black as a bird. ”

A little red smiled and said: "What birds are not birds, it is a crow." ”

The white eagle was unconvinced: "Isn't the crow a bird!"

Cao Yingting was taken aback and looked at everyone in surprise.

A little red shook his head and said with a smile: "Brother Xian was promoted by Lord Lin Mulin, and he was once a person in the seven doors of Lin'an, born and died, not to mention the merits and hard work, complained for others, chased and killed in all directions, fled from the desert in the middle of the river, and suffered a lot. But it also responds to the proverb, the heavens are entrusted to the people, and they must first work their muscles and bones and starve their skin. Now that the brothers have learned something, the business has become bigger, and they have met a lot of powerful people in the Jin Kingdom, which is far more comfortable than in the Great Song Dynasty. ”

Cao Yingting's face was thoughtful, nodded, and was silent.

Bai Ying smiled: "Brother Cao just kicked Ma Qingshi in anger, what kind of kung fu is it? ”

Cao Yingting smiled and said, "Emei Arhat feet." ”

Everyone was shocked and was about to speak, when they heard Dongxue upstairs scolding angrily: "Who is sneaking around here outside the window?"

I heard Ren Yong and others shouting violently.

Gong Ming pointed his ears and broke out first.

Ren Tianqi was shocked, twisted his body and flew out, rushed upstairs first, climbed onto the roof, and saw a slender and slender figure under the moonlight, and saw that the person's clothes and bands were flying, it must be a woman, and he heard the voice in the air: "Under the green phoenix, I will offer Yunnan high-grade pollen perfume for a few girls to laugh at, and I hope you and others are cautious, the land of right and wrong must not stay for a long time, be careful, we will have a period in the future." ”

Ren Tianqi saw that the other party had no evil intentions, and he did not chase after him, so he hurriedly returned to the county lord's room, and saw that all the women were there, intact, and saw that the county lord was holding two exquisite small porcelain bottles in his hands, and was looking down and sniffing.

Outside, in a dark corner, a black-clad masked man was huddled behind a dozen rocks, watching.

Seeing the master come in, Dongxue probed to see that there were no outsiders behind him, so he handed over the note secretly sent by the official.

Ren Tianqi took a look and saw that it was written:

There are bandits in the inn, be careful to mention it; tomorrow it is said that someone will come in the afternoon, and the token is the proof.

Ren Tianqi saw that everyone was fine, nodded, and went downstairs to enter the room without staying long.

Cao Yingting saw that there was something here and was afraid that it would be inconvenient to stay again, so he wanted to get up and leave.

Everyone refused, and drank and talked and laughed until the four watches dispersed.

After Cao Yingting left, Ren Tianqi wanted to look at the note with everyone, reached out and touched his arms, and was surprised, except for the note, the things in his arms were gone, and he didn't know when he lost them. The things in Ren Tianqi's arms are very important, in addition to the old gang leader of the beggar gang giving him a nine-dragon jade pendant, the teacher giving a jade mask, and the nine door tokens, the gold lord gave the general a gold medal.

Everyone was very anxious, hurriedly rummaged around with the lights, and went to the front restaurant, the residence upstairs and downstairs to check, but finally did not find it, but they also saw that there were many secret swimming whistles around the residence, since those people at the door of the restaurant, only to know that it was the master of the secret guard sent by the government along the way, Ren Tianqi thanked him a lot, and whispered a few words.
