Three anecdotes

Chapter 35 34. Itinerary

Wei Jinleng nodded lightly, "On the 23th day, everyone disappeared from the master. Today is the [-]rd. During these six days, our brothers and sisters have all lived in the house in Liejiang Hutong. Why do we have to leave Jing'an today? , everyone suddenly came to ask for someone?"

"This—" the leader hesitated, "We have been looking for the young master these days, but we have never found it."

"Seeing my senior brother and I going out of the city today, do you want to come and die?" Jing Shanbo asked.

Cardinal Jin smiled in the carriage, "Sure enough, it's fake to find someone, but it's true to block the way." He looked at Shang Chengbi as he spoke, "Since these people are blocking my way, I can't be a cat here." As soon as he pushed the box door, he went out, with a light touch of his toe, the person floated onto the head of the leader, stretched out his foot, and the person staggered on the ground, but Cardinal Jin had already kicked him. The famous artist who shouted earlier said, "The mouth is so unclean! I will teach you a lesson!"

Jin Shu's body was extremely fast, and suddenly he kicked down two other generals who were surrounding him. He swept over with his foot, but suddenly felt a strong force restraining his legs. Just as he was about to pay attention, But in the carriage, Shang Chengbi and Chu Yi had lightly shook hands.

Shang Chengbi's martial arts has always been fierce, Chu Yi is light but intentional and nimble, the two of them dismantled the moves, Shang Chengbi rushed to attack directly, Chu Yi's avoidance was also extremely subtle.Wei Jinhan also noticed the subtlety of this, presumably Cardinal Jin made a move just now, and Chu Yi lightly stopped him before he started fighting with Shang Chengbi.He knew that Shang Chengbi had long wanted to try his second senior brother's kung fu, not to mention that these two were both masters in the world, and he couldn't stop them even if he wanted to.It would be better to stop the dispute outside first.So he personally helped up the leader who was kicked to the ground by Cardinal Jin, "How offending. We have never seen Commander Yu before. Since this matter happened to Ji Xigu, Xin Yang must give you an explanation .It’s just that this trip is of great importance to me, but the itinerary cannot be delayed.”

"Okay! A month later, I'll come to Mr. Wei again to ask for someone!" The man knew how to get off the slope, but unfortunately, Wei Jin Leng was so easy to get along with. "We will naturally investigate the whereabouts of Commander Yu, but it is still unknown whether we will be able to find it. Commander Yu is an auspicious person, I believe, with the old general Yu's reputation, no one will dare to do anything to him."

"Master Cheng is precious." The leader wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, waved his hand, and led the crowd away.

Wei Jin turned his head coldly, and saw that Shang Chengbi and Chu Yiqing were already in an inextricable fight.Jing Shanbo came galloping, and whipped a whip between the two of them, "You lift my second senior brother's veil every time you move, what do you mean!"

The shadow of the whip flickered, and Chu Yiqing was blocking Shang Chengbi's pressure with a move, but suddenly he turned his wrist and grabbed Jing Shan's thin whip, and Wei Jin's cold voice sounded, "Xiao Ye, Don't be presumptuous!"

As a result, this fight is naturally impossible, Shang Chengbi said, "Mr. Zhaolie's moves are exquisite and subtle, I admire it!"

Chu Yi made a casual gesture and returned his compliment.

Wei Jin explained coldly, "Brother Shang, my second senior brother made a heavy oath not to see people with their true colors. If you really can't understand him hiding his face behind a curtain, why don't you ask my second senior brother to change to a human skin mask?" Put it on."

Shang Chengbi could hear that his words were soft but hard, and since he was indeed being rude, he couldn't say anything more.He just smiled and said, "It's a pity that the beauty is in front of her, but she has 'one side of fate'." It's very strange that his side of fate is used here, but he can't say that he is wrong.On the contrary, Cardinal Jin smiled and said, "You only care about the beautiful woman in front of you, but you forget that there is still an old man around me? But when you see the new man laugh, you will hear the old man cry. Now, the new man hasn't smiled yet, so you are ignoring me .”

Shang Chengbi said, "If you can see Mr. Chu smile, even if you follow the example of King Zhou You, who is a feudal lord, you will not hesitate."

Wei Jin wanted to see Chu Yiqing's true colors after listening to his words coldly, but felt that it was really troublesome.Traveling along the way, I don't know how many troubles will arise.

Cardinal Jin's eyes fluttered, "Others have already said that I am a Daji who has brought disaster to the country and the people. I didn't expect that you would want to add another concubine—" He said this, but suddenly stared blankly at the jade ring hanging lightly on his waist. .Chu Yi was lightly dressed in a wrinkled white shirt similar to worn-out clothes, and this jade ring was hidden in the folds all the time, but just now when he started to fight with Shang Chengbi, the jade ring slipped out, and Cardinal Jin was dumbfounded Staring at the fish talisman decoration, he couldn't say a word.

"Chonghua?" Shang Chengbi called him.

Cardinal Jin paled, "It's fine."

Chu Yiqing also sensed the strangeness in his eyes, and quietly put away her own jade ring.Wei Jin Leng, on the other hand, is really caring. Thinking of what his master and senior brother mentioned, this jade ring was hung around his neck when the second senior brother was thrown away, and he didn't feel his heart move.

Cardinal Jin had something on his mind, so he stopped talking all the way, and even Shang Chengbi couldn't eat the fruit he was feeding him. His mind was spinning, thinking that his father once told him that there was still the last trump card.Could it be—

There have always been rumors in the family.However, his original name was Shuji, and Shude was the third of his brothers and uncles.The two elder brothers have obviously died in battle.The more he thought about it, the more he felt a headache, so he simply snuggled into Shang Chengbi's arms and fell asleep in a daze.

Due to the delay on the road, when we arrived at Dianzhuang in the evening, the red fish was sold out.Shang Chengbi looked at him with a smile, "When I was 13 years old, I was on a business trip for the late emperor. I went here once. At that time, the county magistrate was caught with red fish. I remembered these years. It's a pity that this fish has to be fished out of the river. Come and slaughter and cook immediately, you don’t have the good fortune.”

Cardinal Jin said lightly, "It doesn't matter. I also have mashed chicken peach blossom fish in my hometown. When you go back with me, I'll make it for you." He used to say such things with frivolous eyes, but now he is lazy , looking lifeless.

Shang Chengbi had such good eyesight that he had already seen the fish amulet on the light jade ring in Chuyi. He remembered very clearly that Cardinal Jin also had a similar jade ring.He thought to himself, probably this Second Young Master Chu from Jixi Valley is also a side branch of the Jin family.The Jin family is at the end of their strength, even if they are on the same line with Ji Xigu, he doesn't care about it, the only thing he worries about is that Cardinal Jin is caught between his parents and him, so it's hard for him to be a man.But it doesn't matter if you think about it, if the Chu army is still restless, at worst, they will belong to his line and leave his parents alive.Anyway, those uncles are very ordinary to Cardinal Jin, even if Chonghua is angry, just coax him.At most, take Chu as his feudal country, make him the king of Chu, and after the Yu family is cleaned up, the queen will be abolished immediately.Then tell the world that he will never stand up and forget it.Although Chonghua loves to make trouble, he is sensible after all, and he wouldn't blame himself too much if he thought about it.When he thought of this, he became curious about Chu Yiqing, Jixigu's four sons, Shang Quhan, Chu Yiqing, Wei Jinleng, and Jing Shanbo.This name was taken after Rugu, just like Uncle Wang's real name is Shang Yuanzhi, but Shang Hanhan's name is too resounding, and there is the phrase that makes him ashamed that the coldness does not turn around Juntianmeng, common people On the contrary, more people knew about Shang Qunhan than Shang Yuanzhi.However, Chu Yi lightly took Chu as his surname, and it seemed that he was alluding to Chu.

Chu Yi kept the curtain away from his face, so it was naturally impossible to have dinner with them. Cardinal Jin was a very forbearing person, so he remained calm.Shang Chengbi felt a little uncomfortable, he always thought that Chonghua should tell him any troubles he had.Jing Shanbo and Cardinal Jin had always had a rift, and they didn't want to sit at the same table with him to eat, so they occupied a corner to drink by themselves.Wei Jin felt sorry for him when he was cold, and he was obviously saving money, but he gave a full reward and asked the waiter to warm up the wine for him, and ordered him to cook fresh wild vegetables in private.When he ate something that suits his taste, he even ordered someone to make another plate for him alone.Shen Qi laughed casually, "You are willing to spend so much money on a piece of wood that can't get moss off, that's just for Xiao Ye."

Cardinal Jin laughed, "That's why Mr. Wei can get rich. The Wei family has the most property and bank, and there are probably a hundred juniors like Mr. Jing. Could it be that Mr. Wei can earn less?"

Wei Jin said coldly, "One is enough."

Shen Qi said leisurely, "Fortunately, Mu Mu and I don't have a daughter, otherwise, if there are more juniors like Xiao Ye, our daughter won't even have a dowry."

When Shang Chengbi heard his words, he looked at Cardinal Jin with a smile, "If we have a daughter, we will buy the dowry now. Tell me, what are you going to buy?"

Cardinal Jin smiled, "It's up to you." But he said in his heart, it's hard to say whether he will be born or not.

Naturally, all of these people are of extraordinary status, but Shang Chengbi didn't say anything, and no one went to book the inn. It's already late for lunch, but this inn is the largest in a radius of tens of miles, so there are still people They came one after another, and there were even quite a few guests.Shang Chengbi came out this time, firstly because of Ming Hongdao, and secondly because he really wanted to check on the sufferings of the people, so he was talking gossip, but he also paid attention to the gossip of the market in the inn.He has been on the throne for nine years, and he can barely be regarded as a hard-working man. Although the taxes are not light, but the people's lives are quite prosperous because of the crimes and rape, and the teaching of farming and mulberry.This inn is big, and it is impossible for poor people to come here to eat, but Shang Chengbi always feels at ease.But at this moment, a voice that got into his ears made him pay more attention. It was a drunk bragging with his tablemate, "One day is two renminbi! I won't go! If you go, it will be difficult to come back!"

The person at the same table naturally asked, where does the job come from, and it makes such a lot of money in one day.The drunk man played tricks and pretended not to let others know, but his voice was so loud that even Lei Gong could hear him, "What are you doing? What are you doing! Tell me to scare you to death! Listen up! Digging for gold!"

When Cardinal Jin heard this, his face suddenly turned pale. Shang Chengbi smiled slightly, and put a piece of fungus into his bowl, "It's not enough to succeed, it's more than failure."

"Who are you talking about?" Cardinal Jin asked.

Shang Chengbi tugged at his ear, "Of course you know who I'm talking about."

What a transparent person Wei Jin Leng is, he immediately invited that person to his table and asked him about digging gold. He was seven or eight percent drunk, if someone complimented him a few more words, I'm afraid he will even tell you where his banknotes are kept.That man was a restless person, and Wei Jin uttered a lot of words after being asked and ridiculed coldly.

"We are from Gengzi Village, just to the east of Xiaoniu Village. On that day, the rascal in our village asked me, Brother Zhao, if there is a business that will make you rich, will you do it or not?" Smell of alcohol, talking incoherently, when it comes to this, I don't know how many words were added about how the rascal flattered him.It was hard to get to the point, "I pulled out a piece of leg hair, and it was thicker than his waist! I said, if you have a business that makes you rich, you will let me?" He burped, "What happened later? , I just found out. He was trying to take advantage of my Boss Zhao’s prestige, someone told him to invite thirty strong young students, and he would pay two dollars a day!" He gestured with his hand, "Two dollars! I will ask Ah, what is this for? There are so many in one day! They don’t say anything, they will know when they go, and, on the same day——they will be paid after the work is done! Those who went on the first day, in addition to two yuan of wages, were also given another One tael, a whole tael of ingots! It’s called seal money.”

"Then since you took the money and you didn't go, how did you know they were going to dig for gold?" Wei Jin asked coldly.

Boss Zhao poured another pot of wine, "Me? I stole—"

"Ding!"

"Who!" Three bone-piercing nails hit Boss Zhao on the back of the neck, but was blocked by Jing Shanbo's sword, he was impatient, and immediately chased him out.

The author has something to say: the recent writing is not as good as before, I know!Alas, it is a pity to miss that delicate feeling.

Everyday things are so tangled up, I really want to go on strike, sigh!
