This Northern Song Dynasty is a bit weird

Chapter 22 It's Not a Secret Discovered

Looking at the watery lettuce in his hand, Liu Yong actually had an appetite.

He has not eaten any dishes seriously for nearly half a year.

Every day I drink medicine, and then drink some millet porridge boiled by Zhao Xiangxiang to keep myself healthy.

But even so, the body is still getting worse and worse.

I can't eat more and more, and I feel a little nauseated when I smell the meat and oil.

But now looking at the green vegetables in my hand, I have the idea of ​​wanting to eat it.

"Lang Jun, stop eating this lettuce." Zhao Xiangxiang still wanted to persuade Liu Yong: "The doctor told your body that you can't eat too greasy food or raw vegetables, it will aggravate your condition."

"I want to eat it." Liu Yong grabbed the large handful of lettuce with his right hand, and his eyes were too ill, and there was more light in his eyes: "Seeing this dish, I suddenly have an appetite."

Zhao Xiangxiang wiped away tears: "But Lord Lang... your body!"

Liu Yong picked up a lettuce leaf in his left hand, put it in his mouth, and bit it.

After chewing a few bites, his eyes lit up: "It tastes really good, sweet and delicious."

His mouth was full of bitterness caused by physical weakness before, but now it has disappeared, leaving only the fresh and sweet taste of lettuce.

This made him feel a lot better, grabbed a lettuce leaf and put it in his mouth.

After chewing a few bites, another one, after a few breaths, another one.

After repeating this, only the sound of Liu Yong chewing lettuce was left in the room.Zhao Xiangxiang stopped wiping her tears, she quietly looked at Liu Yong who was eating vegetables, and her expression was a little surprised.

Recently, Liu Yong's appetite is getting worse and worse, and he doesn't even want to drink millet porridge.

But now, eating lettuce is so much fun.

It almost smelled like gobbling down.

Soon, Liu Yong had eaten the whole bunch of lettuce in his stomach, and then looked at Lu Sen eagerly.

With a slight smile, Lu Sheng handed over another handful of lettuce leaves. He had already expected that Liu Yong would still want to eat it.

Liu Yong was not polite, and after taking the lettuce leaves, he continued to chew with big mouthfuls.

Zhao Xiangxiang watched Liu Yong eat so deliciously, sighed again, and went with him.

After eating a large handful of lettuce leaves again, Liu Yong patted his stomach and said with a smile, "Chang Xian, I haven't eaten so happily in a long time."

"Lang Jun is happy." Zhao Xiangxiang said resentfully.

When she thinks about it, Liu Yong eats indiscriminately, which will only make her already bad body more and more ill.

Just Lu Sen smiled: "Do you feel more comfortable?"

As soon as these words came out, the two of them were stunned.

Especially Liu Yong, after being stunned, he took a deep breath and said, "It seems that the chest doesn't seem so uncomfortable."

Then he tried to sit up, this time without Zhao Xiangxiang's help, he sat up straight with his upper body.

He clenched his fist again, a little stronger than before.

"What is this?" Liu Yong suddenly turned his head and asked anxiously.

The expression is quite excited.

Your body knows best.

I was so weak before that I could barely breathe.

But now, there has been a slight twist.

Although the body is still very uncomfortable, it has become more comfortable.

It's no wonder Liu Yong is anxious, only those who have lost their health know how valuable their health is.

He didn't want to lie on the bed sick again, unable to move, waiting for others to serve him.

"Lettuce." Lu Sen smiled lightly: "Don't say Liu Tuntian has never eaten lettuce."

Liu Tun coughed lightly: "But it's the first time I've seen lettuce that can cure diseases. Ginseng for a hundred years has no such effect."

Lu Sen smiled and said nothing.

Liu Yong looked at Lu Sen expectantly, but he didn't ask any further questions. After all, he was an arrogant and arrogant person and couldn't hold back his face.

In the end, it was Zhao Xiangxiang who spoke. She is a famous sister, and she has many exchanges with dignitaries, so she naturally knows how to deal with such a scene.

"Little official, I've neglected you." She stood up and went to meet Lu Sen, smiling very enthusiastically: "I was not well entertained, let me make a pot of tea, let's drink and chat."

"That's not necessary." Lu Sen waved his hand and said, "As I said before, I came here to ask Lady Xiangxiang for help."

Seeing that Lu Sen speaks and does things straightforwardly, Zhao Xiangxiang no longer hides it: "Little official, let me ask, how much lettuce do you have?"

"Not much."

"Can you heal my husband's body?" Zhao Xiangxiang asked expectantly.

Liu Yong also stared at Lu Sen closely.

"No amount will cure Liu Tuntian's illness." Lu Sen said lightly.

"Why is this?" Liu Yong said in a hurry: "I feel that my body has improved a little, if there is more..."

"How much can you still eat?" Lu Sen asked with a smile: "Your body will continue to deteriorate. When you can eat next time, your body will be seriously ill again."

To put it bluntly, lettuce leaves add too little health, and only a few points are added after eating a lot, unlike golden apples, which start at [-] per half, and have the effect of increasing the upper limit of health.

But only adding a few points of health is not enough to eliminate Liu Yong's disease state, and his body will continue to deteriorate slowly.

Liu Yong stayed for a while.Indeed, he ate two large handfuls of lettuce just now, and now his stomach is swollen.

"The effect of lettuce is slight, but I have something better, and I have a good chance of curing Liu Tuntian's body." Lu Sen put his hands behind him, smiling lightly.

The two of them looked at the handsome young man in front of them, and they believed his words.

"If the concubine invites the leader of Wuyoudong, can the petty official heal my husband?" Zhao Xiangxiang bowed down and asked.

Lu Sen nodded: "This is my plan to come here."

"Then please wait here for two hours or so, please?" Zhao Xiangxiang asked.

"Yes." Lu Sen nodded.

"Lang Jun, please rest, and the concubine will come back in a moment."

Zhao Xiangxiang was talking, and put a blanket on Liu Yong's back to make him lean on more comfortably, then left the room and closed the door.

There were only two people left in the room.

Lu Sen looked at the old man in front of him with interest.

Liu Yong...a very legendary prodigal son, although his reputation is not as good as Bao Zheng, Fan Zhongyan, Su Shi, etc., but anyone who likes poetry or knows a little about history will know him.

A great poet who spent most of his life in the brothel, and finally died in the brothel.

"Lu Xiaolang, Wuyoudong people are vicious and vicious, why do you want to meet the leader in person?" Liu Yong felt that the two big men looked at each other and didn't speak, and the atmosphere was strange, so he took the initiative to find a topic: "Why don't you ask the government for help? "

Lu Sen shook his head: "The Kaifeng Mansion has swept the Wuyou Cave three times in half a year, but nothing has been accomplished. It doesn't make much sense to ask for help from the Kaifeng Mansion. Besides, if the government has another large-scale operation, the other party will tear up the votes in anger. Wouldn't it be too late to regret it?"

Liu Yong nodded: "It's true."

In fact, Lu Sen has also considered asking Tianbo Yang Mansion to help, as long as he speaks out, they will definitely be willing to help.

But the problem is, what even Nanxia Zhanzhao can't do with a number of arresters, it is estimated that Tianbo Yang's house may not be able to... No, the Yang family is an aristocratic family of military formations and is good at arranging troops. If you can mobilize hundreds of people Soldier, the effect achieved is definitely much better than Kaifeng Mansion.

It's just... at the feet of the emperor in the capital of Bian, hundreds of soldiers were mobilized to sway through the city and fight!

Tianbo Yang Mansion will definitely be put on the hat of 'rebellion' the next day.

They will be madly attacked by those political enemies who are not used to the Yang family in the first place, and they will be eaten and eaten in the end.

Considering this level, the old lady She probably wouldn't be willing to send too many people to sweep the Wuyou Cave.

Not many people make sense.

So Lu Sen can only solve this matter by the way of the rivers and lakes.

Besides, if Wuyoudong was so easy to deal with, it would have been flattened long ago, and it would be their turn to be elusive and kidnap people everywhere?

"Can Lu Xiaolang be married?" Liu Yong asked with a smile.

"Never." Lu Sen paused and said, "Liu Tuntian is best to rest for a while, lettuce is just to make you feel more comfortable temporarily, if you spend your mind, it will increase the burden on your body, it is better to take a nap first and wait for Mrs. Zhao Xiangxiang to come back. ."

"Alright." Liu Yong smiled, lay down on the bed, and closed his eyes to rest.

Go to sleep soon.

And Lu Sen went to the low table in the middle, sat down, picked up a yellow booklet on the table and flipped through it.

This is a dictionary, the font is beautiful and magnificent, and it should be written by a woman.

There are Liu Yong's words in the booklet, as well as many words that Lu Sen has never read before, which is very interesting to read.

Halfway through the booklet, the door opened, and Zhao Xiangxiang came back.

Time has not passed, generally speaking, most of the people in the brothel will have an unclear relationship with the black forces.

Many times, if you want to know the news of the underworld circle, go to those young ladies and ask, and it is easy to get the information you want.

Zhao Xiangxiang sat opposite Lu Sen and said with a smile: "Little official, I have asked someone to take the words out. If it can be done, that person should come within half an hour. If not..."

Speaking of this, Zhao Xiangxiang's mood went down: "If it doesn't work, the concubine is willing to use the body of Pu Liu in exchange for my husband's recovery, okay?"

"No." Lu Sen waved his hand: "As long as you let your words out, it's not difficult for Liu Tuntian."

Zhao Xiangxiang breathed a sigh of relief, and Yingying bowed: "Xie Xiaoguanren."

Although she is not only a man in Liu Yong, and Liu Yong doesn't mind that she spends the night with other men, after all, her identity is inexorable, but...the less such things, the better.

At this time, after finding that Lu Sen was a good talker, Zhao Xiangxiang relaxed a lot. She was a little restrained before.

She made tea and said some interesting things to liven up the atmosphere between the two.

About half an hour later, heavy footsteps came from outside the door.

After a while, the door was pushed open, and a man appeared at the door.

With a dark face and small eyes narrowed into triangles, at first glance, his temperament seems very wretched.

Although this person wore new clothes and seemed to have been groomed, he still gave off a feeling of being crowned by a monkey.

"Oh, Sister Xiang, you are actually entertaining guests. You are still a little white-faced." The man was originally happy, but after seeing Lu Sen, his face changed. The old man laughed again: "Yo, two. It's still Sister Xiang, you are playing wild, then I'm fine. The four of us will have no problem coming together. I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it."

Zhao Xiangxiang smiled and didn't care.

She has been in the brothel for eight years. She has never seen any scenes, and she has never heard any foul language. This is nothing at all: "Boss Luo, it's not that I want to see you, but this Lu Xiaolang wants to see you."

"You play with me?" The man looked left and right, but found no ambush, and his expression became a little grim: "If a white-faced boy wants to see me, you dare to ask someone to send a message to call me? For me, it's very dangerous."

Zhao Xiangxiang shook her head slightly: "Boss Luo, please don't worry, I invite you to come, and the promise will be fulfilled naturally. As long as you have talked with Lu Xiaolang, I will fulfill the promise and stay with you for the night without taking any money."

Alas...the bed sighed slightly.

"Okay, that's what you said." Boss Luo turned his head and glanced at Liu Yong on the bed, and didn't care much when he saw that he was old, weak and sick.Then he walked to the table and sat cross-legged. He looked left and right, patted the table with his dark hand, and said, "Where's my tea."

Zhao Xiangxiang took out another small cup of purple sand from the side, poured tea and placed it in front of Boss Luo, frowning slightly, looking reluctantly.

Boss Luo drank the tea and put it on the table again with a crisp sound. Then he stared straight at Lu Sen and asked with a frantic expression: "Boy with a white face, what do you have to do with me? Hurry up and finish. , so that I may rejoice with the beautiful."

Boss Luo is not afraid of what will happen in this warm jade pavilion.

Before he came, he let his subordinates step on the spot nearby, there were no officials and no masters.

If he hadn't been careful enough, he wouldn't be alive now.

Moreover, this white-faced boy has an excellent temperament, but he has no external training and no inner light in his eyes. He is just an ordinary rich boy.

It's the short hair that's a little weird.

Lu Sen faced each other and asked: "Today, my servant Hei Zhu was selling green vegetables on the street of Bian Shui River, and he disappeared. I just wanted to ask, does Boss Luo know about this?"

"Heh, come and ask me when you're gone, does your servant have no legs? Maybe he ran away. It's not uncommon." Boss Luo said impatiently. Thinking of making out with the beautiful Zhao Xiangxiang opposite, he didn't bother to make such a person disappear... Then he frowned, his eyes were slightly opened, he was looking at Lu Sen for a while, and asked, "Wait, There is a green vegetable seller on Bianshuihe Street... oh yes, I remembered it, and there is such a thing."

Lu Sen breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that Hei Zhu was still alive.He asked indifferently: "You can take the money from selling green vegetables and just give it back to me."

"Those green vegetables are delicious." Boss Luo showed an aftertaste expression: "Although there were only a few leaves left at the time, I tasted it and it was really delicious. However, you know why we took that servant with us. go?"

"Green vegetables are delicious?" Lu Sen raised his eyebrows and asked.

Zhao Xiangxiang also looked over, and her eyes moved.

"It's really delicious, but that's a fart!" Boss Luo slapped the table heavily and said angrily, "No matter how delicious the green vegetables are, can there be meat? We caught that kid because he didn't follow the rules."

Lu Sen was stunned... He thought the other party knew the secrets of those vegetables.

Because the health value added by vegetables is very, very small... It takes a lot of food to have a little effect, like Liu Yong just now.

In addition, green vegetables are very expensive, and most people do not buy too many. The whole family eats them separately, and each person can only eat a few leaves.Under normal circumstances, you will only think that this green vegetable is delicious and you will be done.I don't think about it too much, which is why Lu Sen rest assured that Heizhu went to sell vegetables.

But now it seems that there are other reasons.

"What rules?" Lu Sen asked.

"We are in charge of Bianshui Street, and we have to charge [-]% of the money for everyone who sets up a stall there, understand?" Boss Luo looked at Lu Sen with his triangular eyes: "Your servant sells eight Heaven's food, at least a consistent amount of money is sold every day, that is to say, he has to pay us at least two coins of [-] yuan. He doesn't have that much money on him, so we can only deduct people and wait for someone to redeem them. If no one comes to redeem him, he will be our Wuwudong person."

"It's that simple?" Lu Sen sighed.

"Two passes and four hundred wen, are you willing to go out?" Boss Luo looked at Lu Sen, his eyes full of malice: "Three hundred wen can buy a beautiful maid, that servant is black and thin, you definitely don't want to go out, right? ."

Zhao Xiangxiang's pretty eyes fixed on Lu Sen.

Back then, her father sold her to Nuanyu Pavilion for 150 Wen.

Lu Sen smiled and said, "Of course I have to go out, but I want to meet people first. Otherwise, if you give money and you don't pay people, wouldn't it mean that people and money will be empty?"
