Chapter 42 Use wine to drown your sorrows

Liu Yiru drank his sorrows in a wine shop, and the table in front of him was quickly filled with empty jugs.

He propped his head on one hand, and the hair scattered from the bun hung on his cheeks, adding a charm to his handsome face.The other hand held the wine jug high up, and the clear wine poured into his mouth from the air, some of the wine dripped on his lips, he stretched out the tip of his tongue and licked it, his red lips were stained with water, Glittering in the candlelight of the wine shop.

At this moment Liu Yiru was drunk, his eyes blurred, he threw away the empty jug in his hand, and said loudly: "Xiao Er, bring the wine."

The waiter ran over to accompany him with a smile and said, "Guest officer, you have already drunk eight pots of wine, you can't drink any more."

Liu Yiru glanced at the waiter in the shop, his peach blossom eyes seemed to be full of spring water, Gu Pan was fascinated, he asked with his tongue out, "Why, are you afraid that the young master won't pay for the wine?"

He reached into his bosom, took out a piece of silver and smashed it on the table, and said: "Bring the wine, bring as much as you have."

The shop waiter saw Yinzi and smiled, "Okay, guest officer, just wait a moment, I'll be here right away!"

When the guests in the restaurant saw him drunk, they all hid away.There were only a few rogue-headed guys sitting on the table next to him, seeing Liu Yiru's beauty and being alone, he became malicious.

They got up and sat around on the stools around Liu Yiru's table. The leader was a tall, fat man in a light green satin robe with a full face. The young man's handsome appearance is rare in the whole capital. Drinking alone is boring, do you want your brothers to drink with you?"

Liu Yiru squinted at them, his eyes fluttered, but it was as cold as ice, and he uttered a word coldly: "Get out!"

The fat man's expression changed in an instant, and he said sinisterly: "Young master, don't toast or eat fine wine. We brothers are not vegetarians. If you play with brothers obediently, you will not treat you badly. If you don't Be obedient, if we accidentally hurt you, we will lose our temper."

Another young man with a mischievous eyebrow and a mouse-eyed eye held the jug and walked around Liu Yiru's back, "Our elder brother wants to drink with you, that's because he thinks highly of you, you just drink it honestly!" He lifted Liu Yiru's head and poured the wine into his mouth Fill in.

Liu Yiru coughed due to choking, he stretched out his finger and poked the Quchi acupoint on the little man's arm, the little man's hand went numb, and he subconsciously let go, the jug fell to the ground and shattered.Without looking back, Liu Yiru twisted his wrist with his backhand, and released his wrist with a crisp "click".

The little man clutched his wrists and fell to the ground screaming like a pig being slaughtered. Seeing this, several members of his accomplices eagerly stood up and surrounded Liu Yiru.

The owner and staff of the restaurant saw someone making trouble, and just wanted to come up to try to persuade them, but they were glared at by the fat man who was the leader, and they hid behind the counter in fright, not daring to come over.

Those few people knew a little bit of kung fu, especially for the fat man, who punched fiercely with his long fists, and his strong figure was quite agile.If it was normal, such a guy would naturally not be Liu Yiru's opponent, and he wouldn't be able to pass a move under his hands.

But today he has no fighting spirit at all, he doesn't know how to dodge when his fist hits him, he is still lying on the table, pulling wine jugs, picking them up and shaking them one by one, until there is still wine left, he throws his neck up and pours it into his mouth, being beaten by those few people. People staggered and didn't realize it, as if there was nothing more important than drinking in the world.

There was a rush, ping-pong-pong, the table was overturned, and broken porcelain was all over the floor.The other guests in the restaurant were scared away when they saw the fight, and some took the opportunity to slip away without even paying for the food and drinks.

A man and a woman sit behind a carved screen in the corner.The man's figure is thin and straight, with plain eyebrows and eyes, and he is dressed in a light blue brocade robe, which is well-made but not ostentatious.The woman is slender and slim, with a light veil covering her face, revealing only a pair of eyes as clear as clear water.There are several dishes and snacks on the table in front of the two.

The woman pushed the plum blossom stuffed steamed cake in front of her to the man at the same table, "Brother, eat the plum blossom cake, it's getting cold, what are you doing over there?"

The two were Yun Jue and Yun Shang.Today Yunshang came to look for Yun Jue, it was getting late, Yun Jue took his younger sister out to eat something, and after eating, he could send her back to the embroidery village, unexpectedly ran into Liu Yiru who was drunk on the street.

Yun Jue frowned, "I happen to recognize that person, he is Liu Yiru, the son of Yushifu. He is usually very arrogant, and his martial arts is also quite strong, but today he was bullied by a few local hooligans."

"So his name is Liu Yiru?" Yun Shang murmured, as if a stone had fallen in the heart lake, causing ripples.She subconsciously poked the wishful cake on the plate with her chopsticks, making a plate of crumbs, "Little thief, you deserve to be beaten to death!"

Yun Jue turned his gaze to his younger sister, "What, you know him? Did you have a problem with him?"

"No..." Yun Shang looked flustered, but thanks to the veil covering her face, Yun Jue didn't see anything strange.She faltered for a while, and hastily found an excuse, "Just now my brother said that he is the son of Yushi's mansion, and my brother's mission is to assassinate Yushi Liu Chen, so his son is naturally at odds with us."

"You can't say that." Yun said absolutely: "I have no enmity or grudge with the Liu family, it's just to complete the assassination mission. If I kill Liu Chen, even if Liu Yiru comes to me in the future to avenge the murder of his father, I will Can't blame him either."

Yun Chang didn't speak, but bowed her head and took a sip of tea silently.In fact, as soon as Liu Yiru entered the room just now, she immediately recognized him as the person who stopped her in Yushi's mansion that night.Although I couldn't see his face clearly at that time, those eyes were shining in the dark night, as if they could draw people's souls away, it was really unforgettable.

The girl has a thin skin, and when she thought of being stabbed in the chest by Liu Yiru's sword finger, she felt ashamed and angry.If it wasn't for the fact that her elder brother was in front of her, she would have rushed over to teach Liu Yiru herself a long time ago if Yunjue knew that she had visited Yushi's mansion at night.Now that someone beat him up, it was naturally his wish, and he wanted to clap his hands and applaud him.

She peeked over there secretly through the gap in the screen, but for some reason, seeing Liu Yiru was beaten badly, her hair was messed up, and the corners of her lips were bleeding, she felt distraught, as uncomfortable as being pricked by a needle , Cursing secretly in my heart: idiot, you were merciless when you fought with me that night, why are you letting others trample on you now, don't you know how to fight back?

There was more and more commotion over there, one of the hooligans grabbed the wine pot and smashed it on Liu Yiru's forehead, blood flowed out, covered Liu Yiru's dark and straight eyebrows, covering his eyes.He wiped it with his hand indifferently, and continued to drink with the flagon.

Yun Shang couldn't sit still anymore, "Brother, these ruffians are too much, I have never seen such a bully, why don't you take care of it?"

Yun Jue smiled wryly, "I'm afraid that if he sees me now, he will feel even more uncomfortable."

Seeing Liu Yiru being knocked down to the ground, several people stepped forward and grabbed his lapel and dragged him out.Yun Chang couldn't help standing up with a "chuckle", her fingers already gripping the hilt of the dagger in her sleeve.

Yun Jue couldn't let his sister make a move, so he could only get up and go around the screen first, and reached out to stop the fist that the fat man threw at Liu Yiru's chest.

The fat man looked up and saw a yellow and thin face, which was unremarkable, so he pointed at Yun Jue's nose and cursed: "Where did you come from? Are you tired of working? How dare you meddle in your grandpa's business!" He waved his hand and greeted The little ones said, "Brothers, come to me, kill this tuberculosis ghost and take this little rabbit away to have fun."

Those people put down Liu Yiru and surrounded Yun Jue.But they were Yun Jue's opponents, and within a few moments they were crying and howling all over the floor looking for their teeth, shouting, "Grandpa, spare your life! Grandpa, spare your life! The little ones will never dare again!"

Yun Jue waved his head to signal them to get out of here, and the hooligans supported each other and ran faster than rabbits.

Liu Yiru on the ground stood up unsteadily, regardless of the scars all over his body, he only wiped the blood foam from his lips, and threw himself on other tables to continue looking for wine.The guest who ran away just now had half a pot of wine left, he laughed drunkenly, and was about to pour the wine into his mouth when he looked up and saw Yun Jue.Although Yun Jue changed his face, the two of them had been together day and night for a month at any rate, so they were naturally familiar with each other, so they recognized each other at a glance.

Liu Yiru had never felt that he was so embarrassed, and being seen by Yun Jue at the worst moment was worse than being stripped naked in public.He slid down from the table, lowered his head to avoid Yun Jue, wishing he could find a crack in the ground and slip in.

Yun Jue walked out without looking sideways, as if he didn't know him.

When he was about to walk out of the restaurant, Liu Yiru who was behind him suddenly said: "The clan of the Wu family in Shanxi sent 10 taels of silver to the capital not long ago, and it is said that the money was sent to the Mansion of Marquis Wenzhong, and this is not the first time. It's been delivered before."

Yun Jue was stunned for a moment, didn't speak, and walked out of the restaurant at a faster pace.

Yun Chang followed out quietly, but couldn't help but look back.Liu Yiru sat on the ground leaning against the wall, with one leg stretched out and the other bent, with his arms resting casually on his knees.He lowered his head, and from Yun Chang's perspective, he could only see his dark eyebrows and straight nose. He looked handsome and lonely, which made people feel pity.

Yun Jue was waiting for Yun Shang not far away.Yun Chang hurried to catch up, but her heart could not be calm for a long time.I always feel that there is something like a butterfly breaking out of the cocoon, spreading its colorful wings, flying in the night sky, leaving a bright diamond-like track, and with this thought, it is like walking on the clouds, and the whole person is dizzy.

After Yun Jue sent his sister back to the Embroidery Village, he walked back to Liuli Hutong under the moonlight.As soon as he reached the entrance of the alley, a person suddenly appeared from a dark corner, hugged him from behind, pressed his chest tightly against his back, and said in a hoarse voice, "I've been waiting for you all night."

Yun Jue relaxed his body and let him hold him, "I know."
