Zhu Dianyi is a complete cheater, and her very unrealistic idea of ​​"soaking the grain in the wine jar" is almost impossible to realize, because the widow has no idea how much money is hidden in the underground granary. One hundred thousand stones of grain.If you really soak every bag of grain in the wine jar like that, the wine shop owners in Daqing will be very happy. Besides, their original intention is to minimize the waste of food. If the same amount is wasted for the purification of these grains wine, it loses its original meaning.

After Liu Changzhou sent her away, he covered his mouth and nose and walked back and forth in the warehouse.

After the so-called "Conjugate Yin-Yang Pass" under the table of the Eight Immortals was violently destroyed, a very steep slide appeared under it, almost straight, leading directly to the entrance of the granary below.There are two granaries at the bottom, one on the left and one on the right, squatting on both sides of the bottom of the slideway. They are gradually recessed into the wall in the shape of an awl.

Looking around, the grain depot is densely packed with bags, stacked on top of each other to a height of three feet.

He walked around the grain mountain a few times nervously with his hands behind his back, and felt that He Yun was really capable. Did he store up so much grain to wait to give birth to a son for him?

He Yun is a person with background, Liu Changzhou knew it before throwing him into the pot for a while.Huarong has two major shortages, one is food transportation, the other is salt transportation. Those who can sit in these two positions will hardly be able to reach the sky without a backing.No matter how courageous He Yun is, he dared to withhold the rations and salaries of the generals of the Northern Defense Forces. This is a bit unimaginable.

...Unless there is someone in the court who has a personal grievance with General Chi Lihao.

Liu Changzhou thought about it, but couldn't figure it out at all, because General Chu Lihao was stationed outside all year round, it would be hell if he could make any kind of trouble with the Beijing officials.

Then there was only one explanation, and this explanation made Liu Changzhou want to beat someone very much—it was the late emperor's will.Ci Lihao has made outstanding military exploits and has been stationed on the border all year round. He has a very high prestige in the army. Even if he was single-handedly promoted by the emperor, there is no reason not to keep a hand for future troubles. After all, people's hearts are unpredictable.

So it's not that no one knows about He Yun's private hoarding of food, it's just that some people choose to turn a blind eye.Or someone used He Yun as a gunman to instruct him to withhold the rations.

Now that Chu Lihao is old, how can he be arrogant no matter how powerful he is?The instructions given by the new emperor to Guan Yu at this time can be said to kill the donkey and kill two birds with one stone. It not only explained to Ci Lihao why the military rations were in arrears all the year round, but also pushed the responsibility of the Ministry of Households away. Get rid of He Yun.

Liu Changzhou stretched out his hand expressionlessly, rubbed his fingertips against the wall and walked forward step by step. He hated this kind of drama of "the scorpion is gone, the good bow is hidden; the cunning rabbit is dead, the running dog cooks it", but this is almost a trend. The inevitability cannot be simply explained by who is right and who is wrong.If one day, he also becomes the next Lu Fuzhi or the next Chu Lihao, he thought, he would have no complaints.

Guanpei Pavilion, as the name suggests, is used to peep through the pipe.The emperors of all dynasties were the final commanders of the Guanyu Pavilion. The emperor used the Guanyu Pavilion to investigate the affairs of the world. It was an organization hidden behind the scenes. Daqing's fig leaf is the "surprise soldier" used by Daqing to win by surprise.

Liu Changzhou is very clear about his position, his first task is to fulfill the emperor's order, he can do whatever he can for this task, and he doesn't have to be afraid of offending anyone, because the emperor is his backer, that's why he dared to boil He Yun directly.For the remaining matters that need to be weighed and maintained to maintain a stable state, there will naturally be someone to make suggestions, so it is not something he should worry about.

The official parties where you come and go for entertainment and intrigue are thousands of miles away from him. He doesn't have to go back and forth every day in all kinds of temptations and suspicions. When he thinks about it, he feels that Zong Yi treats him well. It was true love, and he was so moved.

A row of oil lamps dotted the walls of the granary, which could only illuminate a very limited space.The orange fire light stepped on which nerve of the "knife head", he snapped his fingers suddenly, explained to the subordinates who had arrived in Deling, and sat down on the corner of the wall with his eyes closed. .

These days are almost continuous, and he was tortured by Lu Hanzhang who was killed halfway. As soon as he sat down, he suddenly felt that what the old fox said was so true, "If you can lie down, don't sit, if you can sit, don't stand. Standing", so he didn't do anything, and simply lay down on the ground.

After a while, the yamen servants in the imperial envoy's yamen mobilized collectively, carrying hundreds of cauldrons from nowhere, and put them on the open space around the grain mountain one after another.The caliber of the pot is so big that it is no problem for an adult to turn around in it horizontally. It seems to be a pot used by butchers to shave pigs.Subsequently, thousands of jars of wine were poured into those cauldrons, and the yamen servants held torches and ignited the wine in the pots.

For a moment, the entire underground was illuminated by flames.Soon, the mist from the brewery filled the entire underground granary, and the nose was filled with a very strong smell of wine.

The so-called wine base is the strong liquor before it is blended with white water in the distillery. It has high purity and is steamed into steam, which is naturally powerful.He wanted to faint for a while longer, but unfortunately found that with the burning of the wine field, the air in the underground granary became thinner and thinner, which made him breathless and his heart beat a little too fast.

When he saw those oil lamps just now, he felt that if he had to fill the entire granary with light, sound and air, he had the idea of ​​cooking wine.Facts have proved that this idea is quite effective. The volatilized gas fills the entire space, and the gas is pervasive. After a while, the liquid droplets formed by the condensed wine gas will merge into one from all directions. A trickle flowed out from the underground tunnel of the granary unimpeded all the way.From the color of the trickle, it can be seen that Zhu Dianyi's statement is quite reliable - the trickle on the ground is black.

Liu Changzhou heaved a sigh of relief, leaning on his forehead, like a drunkard who drank too much, his feet fluttered out, swaying all the way to Zhuge Hut unconsciously, he straightened up and fell on his hard bed, with a very The useless posture fell into a boundless dark sweet dream.

In the thick and indelible darkness of the dream stood a middle-aged man whose face was almost identical to his. Opposite the man stood a tall and straight man all in white, with a down-browed look that seemed familiar.The middle-aged man knelt down and waved to a little guy with a bun on his head, and said with a smile, "Yao Shan, come, from now on, this person will be your master."

The little guy started to toss his legs back and forth, howled and whizzed past, rushed over and hugged the thigh of the man in white clothes Shengxue, raised his face and shouted heartlessly: "Master!" The little guy Behind him was a golden little milk dog, not as tall as that tiny calf, but its tail was wagging extraordinarily joyously, making itself like a flower in the wind.

Another moment, the little boy was tiptoeing to steal candy from the sugar jar in the kitchen, but he accidentally fell down and knocked over a jar full of sugar.As a result, the little kid rolled his eyeballs around, and pushed the little milk dog into the sugar pile very wickedly, and gave the dog a sugar bath.Not to mention how much he deserved a beating, his skin was so tight.

The picture in the dream was ever-changing, a thick fog cleared, and he saw a handsome young man practicing a set of swordsmanship in the very empty courtyard of Peiweilu on Longmen Mountain. The waist, back, wrists, and ankles have no strength at all.Taking a closer look at the sword, it was outrageously gaudy, it was nothing more than a fringe, and there was actually an extremely vulgar sapphire inlaid on the hilt.

Liu Changzhou sneered, smiled disdainfully, and thought: "It's just a trick."

Then a Huishan Motiao flew out from the hut, knocked the sword out of the young man's hand with just one move, the tip of the sword stabbed straight into the ground, and a clean and clear voice sounded: "Flower fists and embroidered legs. Yaoshan Kung fu is flexible, ever-changing, and confident, and the most important thing is to accumulate strength with a feather body. The catkins in the wind and the duckweed in the rain are beautiful. If you are not stable with your feet, how can you defeat the strong wind? Heavy rain? Moreover, a warrior needs a medium to communicate with the outside world, and it is not limited to a sword. With skill, everything can be a sharp knife in the hand; if the skill is weak, the general Mo Xie is useless."

Liu Changzhou nodded, expressing his full agreement.

Then there appeared a market entrance, the execution ground at the market entrance was surrounded by a circle of common people, and on the execution platform was kneeling a man covered in blood. Bo, the upper body is straight and upright, with a kind of demeanor of "the taste of mysterious wine is light, and the sound of loud voice is hopeful".

Standing behind him was an executioner holding a thin blade, cutting off the flesh on his arm one by one.

In the crowd, there was a tearful teenager, who was tightly hugged by the middle-aged man at the beginning.The boy tried his best to break free from the embrace of the man behind him, but all his struggles were in vain.He could only stand where he was, watching the man on the execution platform being hacked into pieces.

Liu Changzhou, who was outside the screen, suddenly felt a heart-wrenching pain. The colic made him frown unconsciously, and his fingers twisted convulsively, as if grasping a piece of driftwood in the endless ocean. Something, a feeling of powerlessness arises spontaneously.

Light and shadow passed by like a revolving lantern, and suddenly a strong and dazzling white light burst out from the extreme depths. After the white light gradually subsided, a shapeless figure appeared in the center. In the air, with gentle eyebrows, he raised a hand and waved at him, saying, "When will your desire to stay with me overcome your difficulties?"

There was a warm current in his heart, and before the warm current flooded his whole body, he saw that the man's extremely long hair suddenly changed into snow color, and blood began to flow from the corners of his eyes and mouth, and his whole body gradually became lighter. , become transparent and disappear bit by bit.At this time, a gust of wind came from nowhere, without even saying hello, and mercilessly blown away the last remaining pale color.

In the last dream, there was nothing.

Liu Changzhou broke out in a cold sweat, trembled all over, took a deep breath, and struggled to wake up.As soon as I opened my eyes, I fell asleep all of a sudden until the afternoon, and the sunlight in front of the window was slanting to the west.

He raised a hand to his forehead, thinking how ironic it was.

People say that the experience of "dream of thousands of mountains in the afternoon, and an arrow in the shadow of the window" probably only appears in the dwelling of a hermit. He is an ordinary person who walks in the world every day, unexpectedly has this kind of goodness. when.It's just why he dreamed of these things at this time, it was almost a silhouette of several important periods in the first half of his life, condensing almost all the joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys of the first half of his life.

The world is a big dream, and the world is full of autumn trees sweeping the floor and yellow birds crying.It's only been ten years before and after, and the past is unbearable, leaving only a long sigh from the traveler...

I have not traveled thousands of miles, but the mountains and rivers have passed.

He shook his head, got up and planned to see how far the underground granary was going.As a result, he was only halfway up when he was so frightened that he fell back again—Lu Hanzhang, who appeared out of nowhere, was half leaning on the bedpost, holding a book in one hand, and his lowered eyebrows suddenly looked like those in his dream. That figure overlapped perfectly, giving people the illusion that a person in a dream has stepped into reality.He suddenly felt a little rejoiced, rejoicing that all that was just a dream, and besides the dream, the white-haired Lu Hanzhang was still unscathed.

Liu Changzhou asked suspiciously, "Boss Lu?"

Lu Hanzhang raised his other hand, didn't even bother to give him a look, and said calmly: "Are you awake? So can you let go?"

Liu Changzhou looked over, and was shocked again that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven—the hands of the two were entangled together inextricably at some point, and Lu Hanzhang's fingers had been stretched out with red marks. Jiandu became extremely pale due to lack of energy and blood, and was obviously pinched out by himself with a stick with his fingers.

He let go of his hand in embarrassment, and said with a sneer, "When did Boss Lu come? Is there something wrong?"

Lu Hanzhang lost the book, shook his hand, and handed over a piece of paper that had been crumpled and lost its original appearance, indicating to Liu Changzhou that it would not be too late to read it.

Liu Changzhou opened the ball of paper suspiciously, and was a little dumbfounded at the moment—it was the regular monthly punishment notice of Jinglun Academy.The notice said a lot of nonsense and nonsense, such nonsense as "disgraceful to the teacher", and the key point was marked with cinnabar at the end, that is, Lu Hanzhang, the luthier of the academy, and Liu Changzhou, a student, have repeatedly missed classes. To break the discipline, punish the two to clean the Sanyu School for a period of one month.

At the bottom of the notice, there is also a strangely structured bezel, which is the name of the superintendent of Jinglun Academy.

It stands to reason that it would be ridiculous for Lu Hanzhang to be overwhelmed by these few lines with such an informal temperament, and to accept the punishment obediently.Not to mention Liu Changzhou himself, no one has ever dared to name names and say "Liu Changzhou go clean the school" to spread hatred. If it was another time, he would at most reward the writer of the notice with a disdainful "huh".

But what's so damned is that Lu Hanzhang came to him with this very insignificant piece of crap, and what's even more damned is that Liu Changzhou himself showed a submissive physique for the first time!The fact is that he still has some small expectations!

It was a rare first time for these two people to have a tacit understanding, and what's more, they agreed to accept the punishment.

The problem is, Liu Changzhou just made an appointment with this person, and he answered him when the first snow fell this year. According to the current situation, he doesn't need to wait until the first snow.

In fact, he didn't know what would change between now and before the first snowfall. He just subconsciously felt that some bad things would always happen, not to mention that the current food matter hadn't been handled satisfactorily at all.

Liu Changzhou burned a pile of paper money for himself in his heart, and the ashes that floated up after burning were so ironic that they floated into a line of words: "Liu Changzhou, styled Maoshan, his birth date is unknown, and he died in October of the third year of Yuanxian in Daqing." He felt a little guilty. I raised my eyes to see Lu Hanzhang's expression, and only read the meaning of "sweep as soon as you sweep, anyway, I won't lose a piece of meat, just as I am very free".

Liu Changzhou: "..."

Hey, why does my tooth hurt so suddenly?

...Probably because I haven't eaten human flesh recently.

He took out a roll of paper from his sleeve and handed it over, saying, "Hey, the paper you want."

Lu Hanzhang nodded, flipped through it casually, remembered something, and asked abruptly: "Have you thought about the name of the winery?"

Liu Changzhou rolled his eyes and spread his hands: "You think I'm as idle as you, don't you?"

Lu Hanzhang still couldn't help but laugh when he thought of the unfortunate name of his own silk village.He shook the mortgage note on his hand, making a series of "crash clatter" sounds, thought for a while, and said: "Call it 'Siwei Winery'. All the flavors of life in the world are concentrated in the five flavors of sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty, and my hand I am afraid that these people have tasted the four flavors of sweetness, sour, bitter, spicy and salty, so they are called 'four flavors'."

Liu Changzhou said he had no objection. He just wanted to express his views on the name symbolically, when he heard Lu Hanzhang add a sentence with a painful face: "According to the logic of the quasi-big cabinet Qingyun, 'Xie's Winery', It might as well just call 'Huang De Kuai Winery' directly."

Liu Changzhou: "..."

Jinglun Academy has the largest library in Huarong, and its official name is Sanyu Book Hall.

The ancients said that "winter is the time of the year, night is the time of the day, and rainy is the time of the year." These three years are a good time to read sentences.Generally speaking, those who have achieved something are not more talented than others, but they know how to grasp the time hidden in the cracks better than ordinary people. This is the original meaning of the name Sanyu Shutang.

However, in Jinglun, an academy purely for cheating fathers, Sanyu means another meaning—besides eating, drinking, and playing.After eating, drinking and playing, I went to the school to read a book. The life of the second generation of officials can no longer be simply described as complete, it should be called "Xiaoyao".

The two of them walked towards Sanyu Book Hall in a tacit understanding. The sun was setting and the shadows walking side by side were long, giving people the illusion that they have been here all year round.
