"Is it really useful for you to say this kind of truth to a drunk person like this?" Zhang Mingyue helped up the young man who was lying on the ground in a puddle of mud, but the man did seem to have drunk a lot, and he finally sat down after three or four times, and he drank a lot of tea with the man, and the man finally got a little angry, he glanced at the two of them casually, and said lightly after seeing that he didn't know strangers.

"Coming for me?"

"It's almost for you, but I think you should find a place to rest in your current state. ”

Sima Yun took half a pot of wine that was still held in the man's arms.

"I can only talk about things and know what I want to know when I have rested, but I will not invite you to drink, because I don't like drunkards, and I don't like to understand that people become drunks. ”

The two of them helped the man out of this place where only Jiangxia's top class is qualified to come, and the gamblers in the attic either sneered or disdained, but after all, they didn't offend these two strangers who came from nowhere, but they all surrounded the man who only sold one million taels of news for two people, one million taels of silver even for these gamblers who are not rich or expensive, it has to be said to be a big fortune, ten taels of silver can provide a family of three to live a plain life for half a year without starvation, and a little richer people can have a few hundred taels of silver is enough to be regarded as a rich man, although these gamblers are all Jiangxia leaders and faces, but winning or losing 10,000 taels of silver in a gamble is enough to make people feel pain, not to mention this million taels? The person who bought the news is real, and the person who puts the news has also made enough.

"Brother Tai can earn a million taels of silver in three or two sentences, I am afraid there is no more admirable means in the world, but Brother Tai does not seem to be a person from Jiangxia, we have observed my brother for a long time in the past few days, one does not gamble, two does not tease this attic woman, but every day to drink two pots of tea, forgive us for asking, what is the brother coming to this attic for?" Finally, someone couldn't help but ask the man, gamblers actually don't have much leisure to worry about where others come from here and what to do, they only worry about money, worry about silver, worry about how much money can be taken out of other people's pockets, but the man sold a million taels of silver in two sentences is really a little red-eyed, after all, this million taels may be regarded as a huge amount of money anywhere today, if it weren't for the rules of this gambling stall, I'm afraid that even if someone can't help but hit the idea of this lonely man who doesn't know the origin, the man is not in a hurry to explain, he just poured a cup of fragrant tea with himself, and took a few sips at will before saying leisurely。

"I'm here to earn this million taels, but I can't spend this million taels alone, so it's better to let your friends help you spend together, just as a little heart when you first come to your place and want to make friends with you. ”

The man put the one million taels he had obtained from Sima Yun on the table and left lightly.

One million taels is placed on the table like this, how many people are there in this attic? To put it bluntly, there are only thirty or forty people, plus those maids in green shirts looming at most, there are only sixty at most, and one person can divide nearly 20,000 taels, how can the gamblers not be excited?

One million taels were snatched up in an instant, but these silver taels were not yet warm in their pockets and were taken back by the casino thugs who rushed in, and there was a one-eyed dragon Zhang Chong who looked at him coldly.

"I think it's better for you not to fight this million taels of ideas, this money is very hot, and people are even hotter. ”

Sima Yun Zhang Mingyue helped the man to a nearby inn, and waited for the man to sleep until sunset and woke up without leaving half a step, after the man woke up, Sima Yun just glanced at him lightly, his face was bloodless, not much better than the Jianshan swordsman he had seen a few days ago, the only thing better was that his teeth were still a little white, he tidied up his hair and patted the footprints left on his clothes, and then Sima Yun said.

"The losers in this world are also divided into several levels, I originally thought that the son of the dignified and guarded mansion would be more or less higher in rank, but I didn't expect that on the contrary, a generation of gentlemen has fallen to this point, and you are the only one in the past, Zhu Jianye. ”

"Could it be that my brother spent a million taels to ask for my identity just to sneer at me?" The first thing Zhu Jianye did when he woke up was to check the money on his body, which seemed to be a habitual action, but after searching for a long time and finding nothing, the prince of the Taishou Mansion remembered that the only one or twenty taels left on his body were used to buy wine and drink.

"Do you still want to find money to buy wine? I'm afraid that if you continue to drink like this, you will only become a waste. ”

"Am I still a normal person now?" said the prince of Taishou Mansion and laughed inexplicably.

"I don't know who you are, and I don't know what you're doing to me, but I probably won't be able to help you in any way, and I'm afraid it's in vain for you two to send me to rest. ”

"We don't want your help. ”

Sima Yun stood up and called the inn junior, and ordered the kitchen to cook a few side dishes before smiling.

"We just want to hear your story. ”

Zhu Jianye glanced at Sima Yun and Zhang Mingyue lightly.

"Listen to my story, I'm afraid you're either sick in the brain or idle, I'm just a person who has fallen like this, how can my story help you?"

"We know that Zhu Gongzi fell like this because of a person, and now, we happen to be looking for this person, and I am very curious about the man in the gambling stall not long ago, he said that we have already met the person we want to meet, and now, we just need to know a little more about this person before we see him again. Of course, Zhu Gongzi doesn't need to be in a hurry, just say it now, let's talk while eating when the meal comes up. ”

The speed of serving food in the inn is still very fast, and the meal has been prepared in a short time, but there is no wine, and the meal without wine is really tasteless for Zhu Jianye, at least the days have been like this in the past few years.

"I know you want to drink, but I think you can still be saved if you don't drink, and, both men, you and I both know how much men resent those who have hurt themselves, but these resentments are not solved by drinking alone, if you want, I think we can cooperate. ”

"Do you want to find a hunting mountain carving?" Zhu Jianye finally understood the intention of the two.

"That's right, we want to find the Hunter Eagle, because we know that you are very familiar with the Hunter Eagle, and it was he who pulled you into the water and caused you to be too guarded and suffered, so I think we should have the same goal, I came to you, I want to know a little more about the Hunter Eagle through you, such as whether this person is good or evil, what outrageous things have been done, of course, Zhu Gongzi Please start with your own affairs first, and by the way, also talk about the young man in the gambling stall. ”

"How do you know that what I'm saying isn't lying to you? After all, I don't know you, so I can make up a mess to deceive you about a meal, and you won't know if it's true or not, right?"

"You wouldn't do that. ”

Sima Yun poured Zhu Jianye a steaming cup of tea.

"Because you have lived so much and not died, it means that you want to live, and if you want to live, you have to tell the truth, because my brother may be a little short-tempered. ”

Sima Yun patted Zhang Mingyue on the shoulder.

"He has killed a lot of people, killed all kinds of people, not bad for you like a prince of the palace, don't look at him without a knife, because this Jianghu is often a knife without a knife than a knife is usually much more powerful than a knife with a knife. ”

"You're threatening me?"

"It's not a threat, it's just telling you the truth, and if you want to live, if you want to be ashamed, working with us is the best option. ”

"It doesn't sound like I have any other way to go, and since you're going to listen to my story, can you invite me to a jug of wine, you know that storytelling is not a comfortable thing for a person to do. ”

Sima Yun finally asked for a pot of wine for him, only to see that the prince of the Taishou Mansion finally had a glimmer of brilliance in his eyes when he saw the wine.

"If you want to hear about the mountain carving, it is indeed the best choice to find me, because Jiangxia people know that Zhu Jianye is a well-known second ancestor, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, and even came together with characters such as the mountain carving, until later I owed a huge gambling debt and pulled the Taishou Mansion into the water, and the entire Jiangxia was reduced to the bag of the mountain hunting carving, even I, the second ancestor, was swept away by my father and lived on the streets. ”

"That's right, what we heard is indeed such a rumor, I just can't understand that Lord Taishou Zhu Shijun has loved you since you peeed because he only has such a son, even if you owe a huge amount of gambling debts, you will still help you pay them all, how can you bear to let you sweep the floor and live on the street? ”

"It shouldn't be, but what if I tell you that my father committed suicide from the time he signed a huge gambling debt?"

Syllable.

The two teacups in Sima Yun and Zhang Mingyue's hands were crushed together.

"How's it going? Surprised?"

Zhu Jianye did not look sad, but smiled with interest in a sip of wine.

"I know that most people won't believe it, and I also know that these things can't be spread out at will, because if my father is alive, then I can still carry the name of a second ancestor for a while, but I know that if the news of my father's death spreads, then my name as a second ancestor may not be able to be kept, and I am afraid that I will really become a street rat at that time. ”

"I know you want to ask if my father died two years ago, then who will handle all the big and small matters in Jiangxia County in the past two years, in fact, even if I don't say it, you should guess. The big and small things of the Taishou Mansion have been fully controlled by the Hunting Mountain Eagle, including the handling of the affairs of the central government and all the official documents submitted to the imperial court, all of which have to be handled by the Hunting Mountain Eagle, but the Hunting Mountain Eagle will not deal with these in person, but all handed over to the man you saw not long ago, this person has been in my Jiangxia for two years, I don't know where the Hunting Mountain Eagle came from, whether it is the means or the wrist is powerful, in just two years, the Taishou Mansion has been taken care of up and down, even the hundreds of troops stationed in Jiangxia have to obey its dispatch, because Jiangxia is the world of the Ichthyosaurus Gang, the Ichthyosaurus Gang is the underworld, and the underworld never pays attention to so many rules and regulationsFor example, if you don't listen, he can threaten you to kill your family, but I'm glad that guy didn't do it, I know he has a good sounding name, his name is Zhuge Meteor, isn't it a very good name? In fact, he is also a very good person, at least he has never kicked me in the body, he only recently went to the gambling stall, and went for a few days, and then met you who bought two sentences for a million taels of silver, in fact, I really want to tell you that this million taels is really wronged money. ”

"One million taels of silver is not unjust money, it is taken from the people for the people, I want to ask if the owner of that gambling stall really has nothing to do with the mountain carving? Because I have a friend, she seems to have some grudge with the owner of this gambling stall, if I guess correctly, she wants to kill him. ”

"I don't know if it matters, I do know that the owner of this gambling stall is the same as the hunting eagle is from a small gambling stall to get to this point today, you want to find him has nothing to do with me, I eat your wine and food can only say so much, as for where the hunting eagle is, in fact, I have only seen him so many times, I only know that the hunting eagle is a very plain person, so plain that no one will look at the person who walks on the street. ”

"And a man who looks poor. ”

"You know very well, and in that case, there's nothing I can do to help, and I should probably say thank you for your food, but the things I've told you are worth a meal. ”

Zhu Jianye looked as if he wanted to leave, but Sima Yun said next.

"You don't want to kill the mountain eagle to take revenge? Your father Zhu Shijun's death is more or less related to the mountain eagle. ”

"Why should I kill a mountain carving? I said that he is a very plain person, and, he is a very good person, at least for me, willing to repay a huge gambling debt for me, there is a way to repay the debt is a matter of course, at least he did not force my father to go into the water, although it is possible that this step is expected by him, but the gambling debt is owed by myself, and, in the past few years of his governance of Jiangxia, the people have lived very well, the clear and clear, the white road has the rules of the white road, the underworld has the rules of the underworld, he is suitable to be an official, suitable to be Jiangxia's parents official. ”

Zhu Jianye left this sentence and got up to say goodbye, it seemed that he had eaten enough wine and food.

"Where are you going next? Now that the Taishou Mansion is no longer your home, you can't go back to your home, and you can't go to the gambling stall again, maybe you should ask me to borrow some silver, I don't want you to pay me back now." ”

Sima Yun stopped Zhu Jianye, but the down-and-out prince of the Taishou Mansion did not look back, he said lightly.

"I owe you a favor if you lend me money, I know that for a person like you who is willing to spend a million taels of silver to buy a few words, it will never be so easy to lend the silver, you must want me to do something for you in the future, but unfortunately I will not do your things, and I can't do it, as for the silver, I think I should not lack it now, because I can also exchange your news for a large sum of silver, I know that you will definitely not kill me, because you want others to come to the door." ”

Zhu Jianye has been gone for a long time, and Zhang Mingyue still has difficulty coming back to her senses.

"Is this really the rumored wine bag rice bag? Why do I think he seems to be smarter than you? It's just that I'm curious how he knows that you old fox likes to let people do something for you?"

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, there were only leftovers on the table, most of which were eaten by the previous down-and-out son.

Sima Yun was rare and solemn, he said softly.

"In fact, it is basically impossible for the real Lao Tzu heroes in this world to exist, because if a person's growth environment is very good, it is usually impossible for things to happen to go on crooked paths, and even if there is, it will not be as notorious as he Zhu Jianye, a person will not become bad for no reason, it can only be said that he has experienced some changes, such as you, maybe you were a showy scholar for thirteen years before you killed people with a knife, maybe right?"

"Maybe. ”

The two returned to the original inn, and Sima Yun was not in a hurry to tell everything he knew, but found Princess Zhaoyang first.

"Does the princess know the meaning of the four words "breaking the old and creating the new?"

Sima Yun thought about it for a long time and finally asked such a sentence.

Princess Zhaoyang didn't understand why Sima Yun asked this, but she still said honestly.

"How can you not know about breaking the old and establishing the new? Breaking the old rules and establishing new rules, it's just that such a big thing can't be done simply, which dynasty in the world doesn't take decades to transition slowly, not to mention that Xichu is still governed by his father, even if Zhaoyang has the heart, he can't worry about these things. ”

"Then the princess should take precautions. ”

"What do you mean by that? Do you have to ask this palace to do something rebellious?"

Princess Zhaoyang's face changed suddenly, Sima Yun seemed to have expected this, he didn't explain the meaning of his words, but said lightly.

"It's always good to prepare some things in advance, don't make a mess when the time comes, then Xichu may have a lot of incidents, and the princess doesn't need to say that Sima Yun is demagogic, just because Sima Yun studied the stars when he was young, and knew the luck of heaven and earth, whether the national fortune of Xichu can last a long time depends on whether the princess has been preparing for a long time, Sima Yun said this, how to do it, the princess herself thinks about it carefully. ”

Sima Yun didn't want to say more, saying more would only make the Xichuqi woman feel annoyed, and after he said this, he walked out of the inn and walked down the street alone, and Zhang Mingyue followed.

"I heard everything you just said, what do you mean by that?

"We can't do our own providence, all we can do is do our best to obey the destiny of heaven. ”
