Chapter 33 Brother 2 is Good
A big rhetoric made the whole hall quiet down.
You say he is wrong?Others are maintaining the general discipline, such a loyal person, if they are in normal times, they will be rewarded.
But now, no matter how you listen to it, it’s not a good taste. Even if you see it clearly in your heart, you can’t wait until the battle with Lu State is over?
Gan Xun couldn't help but asked Shang Wangshu next to him, "So clear about the law, is he from the Ministry of Punishment? I don't know how he got promoted because he has no eyesight."
Shang Wangshu's face was also not good-looking, maybe he had to be busy after the banquet, and replied, "I usually look smart, except for climbing up, I like to climb a little bit, why is it so confusing now? "
Gan Xun snorted, "So it's not like he's born with blind eyesight, which is interesting."
Who said no, at such an important moment, in order to bite Chen Zifu and the tiger, dare to stand up, how much hatred is there?
Or... how much grievance does the person behind him have with Chen Zifu and Tiger?
Gan Xun's sentence is interesting, and it has a special meaning.
The two looked at each other and stopped talking.
At the envoy of the State of Lu, Zuoqiu lifted the corner of his mouth and raised his glass, "I have long heard that the laws of Dagan are the most stringent among all the kingdoms. I never thought I would have the opportunity to see them today."
I wanted to raise the topic many times just now, but I was suppressed by the officials who came to toast me. I didn't expect it to be brought up automatically now.
After finishing speaking, he raised his glass and signaled to Chen Bai, "As a Bachelor of Zhaoxue in Hongwenge, some know the law and break the law, so I don't know how to defend myself?"
Chen Bo: "..."
Zuoqiu really didn't let go of any opportunity to stir up a topic, and now he has started to try the case for Daqian?
The official who provoked the incident just now shrank his head, "I am also seeking truth from facts, and I would like to ask the University of Zhaoxue to make it clear that your teacher brewed all these wines without permission?"
Chen Bai narrowed his eyes, seeking truth from facts. At this time, the envoys of various countries came to question him face to face, in order to maintain the fairness of the Daqian Law. Are... deliberately targeting yourself?
He didn't know this person, and to be honest, he didn't know when he offended him.
Chen Bo frowned, did he admit to the crime or not?
Now it is no longer a competition of whose wine is better, but the face of Dagan, which is the dignity of the country.
"This wine is indeed brewed by my teacher." Chen Bo said, "But if you say it is wine, it is wine, and if you say it is not it, it is not."
Everyone was taken aback, what is the meaning of this?
Zuoqiu laughed, "Whose wine was stronger than what we were comparing just now, the Grand Master Zhaoxue also went to get the wine, why do you say it's not wine now? Then what did the Grand Master Zhaoxue let us drink?"
Either Chen Zifu used this excuse to escape from accountability, or this is not wine at all, how can it compare with his Lu country wine?
Choose one of the two, no matter how you choose, there will always be one that is beneficial to the country of Lu.
Chen Bo said, "Listen to me. The last time I went to the palace to treat the queen mother's legs, I found that the queen mother suffered from a disease called rheumatism. This disease is troublesome, but it is not impossible to cure. Wet sore spirits work extremely fast."
"After going down, I told the teacher, and then the teacher brewed this strong wine."
"That's why it's not wine. It was originally brewed for medicinal purposes. If it weren't for the fact that the envoys of Lu State had to compete with each other for stronger wine, they wouldn't bring it up as wine."
"So..." Chen Bo looked at the official who was responsible, "You said that my teacher brewed wine privately, but Zifu would not agree, because the teacher clearly brewed medicine."
After finishing speaking, he looked at Zuoqiu again, "Of course, in this situation, it can also be used as a wine envoy to compete with Lu Guo."
"I don't know if I can explain this to your satisfaction"
Zuoqiu's expression was determined: "Whether it's wine or medicine, it's you who said it all by yourself. Zuoqiu first came to Beijing, and he didn't know how capable this Hongwenge Zhaoxue University Scholar is, but how clever he is. Today, I have seen it, and my mouth is black." I can tell you the truth, that’s how Dagan judged the case? Zuoqiu has increased his knowledge.”
Chen Bai smiled, "I, the University of Zhaoxue, really don't have much ability, but I also know that I don't need envoys from other countries to judge the case, and I also know that as an envoy of other countries, interfering in the affairs of other countries is very harmful. All right."
This is more straightforward, Zuoqiu, do your duty, and stir up any flames, even if you are truly guilty, you don't need to judge.
Zuoqiu raised his glass again and looked at the previous official, "I'm just being reasonable. Of course, you have the final say on how to judge. I think this one seems to be familiar with Daqian Law. What do you think?"
Anyway, just refused to let this topic end.
Sweat began to drip from the official's face, he just interjected a sentence, just to let everyone know that the tiger's private brewing of wine violated the law and was not tolerated by the law.
How did he know that these people had to ask him to come out and make it clear, he just wanted to curry favor with the crown prince, and the crown prince finally gave him such a chance, an insignificant official like him originally had no chance to speak on such occasions, but now It has become the focus of everyone.
Gan Xun and Shang Wangshu sighed, were they used as spearmen by others, or were they used by different people and people with different standpoints.
The official kept wiping his sweat, and his voice stammered, "Anyway... Anyway, it's written in the Daqian Law."
Chen Bo was also thinking about who it was, and he never forgot to pull him into the water at such a time.
Someone he didn't know, who suddenly wanted him to be charged so hard, and the wine waiter who stumbled him inexplicably just now, if he hadn't prepared enough wine, he might be to blame.
These palace servants are not at the mercy of anyone. Such a mistake, no matter whether it is intentional or deliberate on this occasion, may not escape death.
Knowing that he would die but still being so resolute, that means the identity of the person behind it must not be simple.
And... it should be right above this banquet.
Chen Bo's eyes moved and their eye sockets drooped.
The people of the Lu Kingdom were waiting for a sentence, when the superior, the king suddenly said, "You guys have been arguing for so long over these trivial matters? It's disturbing Yazhi."
"This king asked the tiger to make this wine to heal the queen mother's legs, so what's wrong?"
Chen Bo was stunned for a moment, and finally the pot was taken by the king?
After all, what he brought was indeed wine. No matter how he defended himself, it was just a rhetoric. If he really insisted on it, he couldn't help it. There must be an identity that is absolutely unquestionable.
Chen Bai couldn't help but look at Qi Zheng. Last time he asked Qi Zheng to give him a tactful message to the king. This time the people of the Lu country will definitely attack him, and the king has to do something about it.
Qi Zheng nodded. He brought the words with him. As for whether to be tactful or not, he followed the original words anyway.
A moment of silence.
Then Gan Xun said, "Your Majesty is filial, I will wait for you to imitate it..."
Your Majesty: "Scholar Zhaoxue, don't hesitate to let the envoys of the State of Lu taste your wine."
Zuoqiu smiled, "Today I really gained knowledge."
In the end, Chen Bo poured him the wine himself, and he couldn't seem to gag this man's mouth. This Zuoqiu is nothing but a shit stick. He just guarded this Zuoqiu today and drank all the time, so you can make trouble again.
Holding the wine, Chen Bai whispered to Zuoqiu, "I felt sorry for you before, but you didn't give in too much today, you just kept trying to beat people to death."
Zuoqiu was stunned for a moment, what happened to this Zhaoxue University scholar?Everyone knows this kind of thing well. Isn't it embarrassing for him to say it so directly?
Just as he was about to speak, Chen Bo said loudly, "The envoys of the State of Lu came to Beijing for the first time, how dare you drink this bowl of wine with me?"
Zuoqiu: "..."
How could this sudden enthusiasm not have the slightest reservation of a literati.
Chen Bo didn't care about him, he tilted his head up to drink, full of posture, but drank in small sips, this is high-grade baijiu, if he drank it in a real bowl, he might perforate his stomach.
Zuo Qiu snorted coldly, raised his head and drank.
As a result, it spit out with a "poof".
His face was flushed, burnt by wine.
Chen Bo laughed, "How strong is my wine?"
When the others saw it, they couldn't help being taken aback, is it really so strong?
At this time, the waiter of Bujiu basically came to them, "How is this wine so clear? The color is like clear water, but the smell is full of wine fragrance."
In ancient times, winemaking was somewhat impure due to technical problems. It was really difficult to make it as clear as water, and it would have the color of grain to some extent.
Many people also looked at the wine in the bowl, "It's really clear."
Chen Bo said, "The queen mother might as well drink some, it can help the blood flow smoothly."
Chen Bo didn't talk nonsense either, for a sick person like the Queen Mother who has been sitting in a wheelchair all year round, it is indeed beneficial to drink a little in moderation, which fulfills what he said just now that it is medicine.
The old lady glanced at Chen Bai, and said, "Scholar Zhaoxue has worked hard today, this wine must be drunk."
Chen Bo: "..."
This old lady is really...
If you are more emotional, you should not shed tears of gratitude.
The old lady took a sip in front of Chen Bo, and Chen Bo didn't dare to neglect, so she quickly drank it too.
Zuo Qiu finally recovered his breath, his face was still red, and anyone who has choked on strong alcohol must know that the taste is not very good.
Just as he was about to speak, Chen Bai handed over the wine again, "I've heard the name of the fourth son of the State of Lu, Zifu, for a long time, and seeing Zuoqiu today, I really hit it off right away. Come, come, drink this bowl to the brim."
People around: "..."
The person who was fighting to the death just now, now hits it off?
Chen Bocai didn't care, if the shit-stirring stick was allowed to speak, it would be a disaster.
Next, they saw Chen Bai and Zuo Qiu having a good time drinking there, and they almost hooked their shoulders.
"Zuoqiu, we have many interesting places in Beijing, why don't I take you around?"
Zuoqiu didn't want to talk, he had never seen such a shameless person.
"Zuoqiu, why don't we go to the imperial prince's fief to roast rabbits, the rabbits there are big and fat, I guarantee you haven't seen them before."
Zuoqiu's face turned dark, and he said in a low voice, "Fuck you, whoever went to roast rabbits with you, our vendetta is not over yet."
"What are you talking about? What kind of enmity? Zuoqiu came all the way, so I want to do my best to be a landlord and have another drink."
Zuoqiu looked at Chen Bai who was pulling his sleeve, how could this man... how could he be so brazen, in public, they were still at odds just now, but now they look like old friends for many years.
Shameless.
I couldn't help but sat down to the side.
Chen Bo thought, from now on, if this Zuoqiu still makes trouble, his name will be written upside down.
The banquet finally looked like a banquet, with continuous singing and dancing, and the sound of wine glasses colliding.
Just looking at the Grand Master Zhaoxue who insisted on dragging others to drink together, I always felt that the scene was a little weird.
If Zuoqiu couldn't get into a fit, there would definitely be a big shadow in his heart.
It was not until the envoys of the State of Lu began to submit the "Secret Records of Lu Gong" that Chen Bai left Zuoqiu's position.
Although Chen Bo always drank in small sips, he also drank a lot and was slightly tipsy.
Returning to his place, Sudan couldn't help but say, "You're so shameless, I'm ashamed when I look at it, then Zuoqiu will almost knock you to the ground, and you won't be afraid of embarrassment then."
Chen Bo laughed, "You still have the nerve to say, if I hadn't blocked his mouth, with the sword in his words, you think he can spare you, and you won't be able to stab your blood."
Su Dan shivered, "I know what we call such a smooth-talking courtier in troubled times in our country of Zhao."
Chen Baixin said, that's not true, if Zuo Qiu continues to sow discord like this, he doesn't know what will happen to others, he himself guesses that there is always the risk of his head moving.
……
His Majesty flipped through the "Secret Records of Lu Gong" handed over by the envoys of the State of Lu, and couldn't help but glance at Chen Bo.
It's actually exactly the same as Chen Bomo's content, and even the pictures are almost exactly the same.
The reason why Chen Bo was silent for a while, instead of directly printing the photos on the phone, was because he knew that the king would definitely see "The Secret Record of Lu Gong".
The king flipped through the pages, saw the last part torn off, and couldn't help asking, "I don't know what the envoy of the State of Lu meant?"
Zuoqiu thought in his heart, he was ashamed to ask, if he didn't watch out, who knows what tricks he would play, and thanks to his extra thought at that time, otherwise he would have cried to death.
In the end, the king returned the "Secret Records of Duke Lu" to the envoys of the State of Lu, because they already had a copy of such things.
As for whether to turn weapons around, the king only said that it needs to be discussed, and he doesn't know if it is a real discussion or just an excuse.
Thus ended a banquet.
When leaving, the envoy of the State of Lu asked Zuoqiu, "Shall we let it go? I really can't be reconciled, and there is also that Zhaoxue University scholar who makes things difficult for us everywhere..."
Zuoqiu replied, "It's just the beginning, how can we stop? Continue tomorrow."
Sitting in the carriage, Chen Bai was also thinking, who would want to drag him into the water on such an occasion today.
Although I have some thoughts in my heart, there is no evidence after all.
As for the Prince's Mansion, at Prince Jiao's place, a housekeeper hurried in, "Your Highness, that... that servant who served wine was just summoned by the Empress Dowager."
The crown prince was stunned, "What? Didn't the king grant him death? Why was he summoned by the queen mother again?"
The internal affairs thought, how does he know, the first news is that he has been given to death, but the current news is that he was taken to the queen mother.
The internal affairs added another sentence, "The speaker at the banquet was also summoned by the Queen Mother, and he is on his way."
Prince Jiao's complexion changed, and he paced back and forth, "Before the speaker enters the palace, send such a message to him..."
The housekeeper couldn't help asking, "Is there... useful? That's the Queen Mother Zhaosheng, the backbone of my work."
Prince Jiao: "..."
Finally, his face sank, "Then he will never be able to enter the palace."
Don't blame him, no matter how powerful the mother is, she can't ask anything from a dead person.
……
In front of the imperial palace, a servant who died in battle.
The old lady and the king stood facing each other, and the people around them dared not even breathe.
After a while, the old lady said, "It seems that there is no need to wait. He can't enter the palace, and he probably won't be able to speak after entering the palace. He is cruel, but he can't distinguish the seriousness and the situation. joke."
After speaking, he no longer waited for the result, but was pushed away.
The king is very unhappy right now.
After all, was his choice wrong?
He didn't say anything, but wrote an imperial edict, "Give the crown prince fifteen punishments."
He also added, "If he comes to make trouble, he doesn't have to report it, and he will be punished for fifteen years."
It's really chilling.
……
On the second day, Lu Guo Posthouse.
Zuo Qiu was leading people out, but as soon as he left the post station, he saw Chen Bai standing outside with a smile.
Chen Bo said that if Zuoqiu was allowed to stir up trouble again and his name was written upside down, he was not joking.
"Brother Zuoqiu, the meeting yesterday was really unforgettable. It's hard to find a confidant. How about traveling to Beijing together today?" Chen Bo said.
The people of Lu State looked at each other in blank dismay. They had never seen such a familiar and shameless person. Why is it hard to find a confidant?Yesterday, Mingming wished he could step on the other party into the mud.
Zuoqiu also twitched the corner of his mouth, how thick-skinned is this Zhaoxue University scholar?
Just as he was about to speak, Chen Bai stepped forward and pulled his sleeve, as if he was a good brother, "No matter what, let me do my landlord's favor today."
A few students with dogs followed, "Yes, yes, go to our classmate's for cupping first."
These Lu people dared to smash their pots. Some people thought that they were not good at learning and they were smashed. What can they do, they have to let Zuoqiu go cupping again.
Zuoqiu was very confused, and in the end, he held hands, held hands, and hugged feet, and just dragged the person away.
This is Shangjing, Zuoqiu didn't take many people with him when he went out, for example, he didn't take Jianshou Ranzhi with him. In his heart, "Lu Gong's Secret Record" is more important than his life, and more people have to stay in the post to guard "Lu Gong Secret Record".
When Zuoqiu was dragged to the stall, the envoys of the Lu Kingdom came to their senses and were about to step forward to stop him. At this time, a few children with dogs stood in front of him viciously, "Dare to step forward and kill him!" you."
This is a group of lawless second-generation ancestors, and there are many servants behind each of them.
As a result, the envoys of Lu State watched Zuoqiu being held there helplessly.
Zuoqiu didn't struggle anymore, because it was a bit embarrassing, but he still raised his head and looked at Chen Bai viciously, "Rude, after all, he is also a Hongwenge University scholar, and he did such a thing in the street."
Chen Bo was taken aback, "It's really rude, this is a good thing, if you don't believe me, ask someone to pull out two pots for me."
Zuoqiu: "..."
People from the State of Lu: "..."
And then there are even more surprises.
I saw a smiling child next to him saying, "Don't be afraid, I also cupped the cups for the prince and my father."
So this is really a prince?The prince who set up a stall on the side of the road?Just now I saw him yelling there with a smile so hard to see.
This big dry custom is too weird.
Chen Bai was still saying, "Zuoqiu came from a long distance, and he must be exhausted after working so hard. Cupping is just right. By the way, it would be even better if Gan Shisan gave you a few needles. Gan Shisan He is the grandson of Duke Gan, and he usually has the best business in setting up stalls, and he is very skilled."
Zuoqiu: "..."
The dignitaries who work hard are not too particular.
Then he stopped talking, because several children yelled, "Everyone, come and see, Mr. Zuoqiu from the state of Lu is also cupping with us. Mr. Zuoqiu said yes, yesterday he said that people from the state of Lu smashed our stall. It's nonsense."
Zuoqiu: "..."
It was obviously following him.
Zuoqiu was also easygoing, seeing that he couldn't resist, and seeing that Chen Bai was being tortured in the same way, he simply stopped talking.
As for cupping, pulling out is a pleasure and an enjoyment.
Chen Xiaobu and the others looked at it for a while, then looked at the dagger at Chen Bai's waist, "Brother, this is the peerless swordfish sausage made by Ou Yezi, the master craftsman of Yue Kingdom? Let us have a look."
Chen Bo said, "This sword is sharp, so be careful."
"We don't pull it out, just play with it."
Zuoqiu: "..."
Really carry this peerless famous sword with you, even if it is their country of Lu, they have to keep it well.
I don't know if this cupping is really useful, or if he was tired on the road, and now he can lie down for a while, his body is really relaxed.
It's just that the other envoys of the Lu Kingdom have weird expressions on their faces.
What happened to those big cakes on their young master Zuoqiu?
Chen Bai continued, "Even if you go to see the king today, you won't be able to see him. Why don't you walk your dog around with us and visit Shangjing? At Zuoqiu's age, you probably haven't been to foreign countries much."
Zuoqiu snorted, "Don't think I don't know what you're doing, talk like we're really friends, and don't feel ashamed."
Chen Bo: "..."
Don't say it, it's embarrassing to say it.
No, how can he be embarrassed by himself, he has to pull out the prince Sultan.
So, when Chen Bo and the others went to watch the sunflowers outside the city and raised a fire to roast rabbits under the city wall, there was another Sultan with a big white dog.
Chen Xiaobu and Prince Ning are painting sunflowers with easels, and the merchant brothers and Gan Xin are helping to roast rabbits for fun.
The rabbit was specially sent from Qi Zheng's fiefdom.
Chen Bo, Su Dan and Zuo Qiu were sitting at the tea stall next to the official road and chatting.
Chen Bo put some copper coins, ordered some rough tea, and asked the old tea seller from time to time, "How is the business?"
The old man smiled, "Since these flowers were planted on this road, more people came to rest their feet, and they would drink a bowl of tea anyway. Life is much better than before."
Chen Bo also chattered with a smile.
Zuo Qiu looked at Chen Bo in a daze. After two days of inquiring about Chen Bo's information, he had already found out very clearly.
It's really unimaginable that such a person as the eldest son of Tingwei's mansion and the grand scholar of Hongwen Pavilion would drag him and Prince Zhao to sit at a roadside stall and chat enthusiastically with ordinary people.
He looked left and right at the smile on the old man's face, and at the common people on the road looking at the flowers.
Zuoqiu didn't know what he thought of, but his face showed sadness, and he suddenly sighed, "The sight of the people in Dagan living and working in peace and contentment is really enviable, but it's a pity that the people of our Lu Kingdom are still in war and their homes have been destroyed. , up and down, life and death unknown."
"Scholar Zhaoxue is still in the mood to drag Zuoqiu around to play, but he doesn't know that Zuoqiu is very anxious."
The smile on Chen Bai's face froze.
He knew what Zuoqiu was talking about, even reproaches and reprimands were no match for the lament in these words.
It is to say that he only knows the happiness in front of him and does not know the suffering of others.
Sudan opened his mouth and said, "Even without us, Daqian would not be able to turn around weapons and armor for you. Not to mention offending Pakistan, how can it be so simple to give other countries such important weapons."
Zuo Qiu looked at the two of them, "Isn't it impossible to complete the "Secret Records of Lu Gong"? You know how important "Secret Records of Lu Gong" is to Daqian."
Chen Bo, Sudan: "..."
After all, they used their own abilities to destroy the hope of the Lu State, and they were not kind enough.
Fortunately, the merchant brothers and Gan Xin's rabbits were roasted, cut with a knife, and served on a plate.
For the next few days, Chen Bo just accompanied Zuoqiu, wandering around in Shangjing, and under the walls of Shangjing, you can often see bonfires roasting rabbits.
The soldiers guarding the city wall glanced at it from time to time.
Zuoqiu didn't know why, but he actually started to introduce the style of Lu country to Chen Bai and the others.
The state of Lu was originally a country with prosperous culture and education, and it practiced Zhou rituals, which is quite desirable.
It's just that the battle is raging now.
Chen Bai also saw the style of Lu country in Zuoqiu.
Dressed in Tsing Yi and a Changqin, it makes people mesmerized.
The envoys of the State of Lu said even more proudly that their son Zuoqiu is the best at playing the piano among the four sons of the State of Lu.
It turns out that this young master Zuoqiu, apart from his sharp mouth, actually has such a good taste.
I heard that the people of Lu are elegant and know how to play some musical instruments.
Chen Bo also learned from Zuoqiu, but...
"Brother, why do you caress this piano like a butcher?"
"That's right, Zuoqiu caresses nicely."
Chen Bai's face turned dark.
In the past few days, it's not bad to play the piano while sketching and playing. It seems that I have forgotten those annoying things and the conflicts between them.
But what should come will come after all.
"Tomorrow is the time for me to formally submit my credentials to the Great King."
Under the city wall, Chen Bo, Sudan, and Zuo Qiu were eating roasted rabbits and drinking wine.
Today's Zuoqiu looked a bit lonely, perhaps because he had drunk too much and his face was slightly drunk.
The last banquet was just a little mention of the purpose of their coming, and the official submission of credentials was when Dagan gave the answer. Once the answer was given, there would be no change.
Zuoqiu gulped down the wine, this wine was bought by Chen Bai, the alcohol was not low, heartburn.
Zuoqiu drank too hard, and his expression seemed a little crazy, "The people of Lu Kingdom are so innocent, why do they have to suffer from the flames of war..."
The clothes were wet with wine, and the voice was unwilling and angry.
Zuoqiu looked crazy, "Wine is good wine, and meat is good meat. It's a pity that the drinker is not a good person."
hiss.
After getting along for the past few days, how can you say that on the surface it is quite harmonious, plus Zuo Qiu taught Chen Bai the customs of the Lu country and taught them how to play the piano. Like a big brother.
But at this time...
Zuoqiu actually took advantage of Jiu Jin to tear away all the disguise, and said everything.
Maybe Zuoqiu was drunk and didn't feel anything, but Chen Bo and Sudan felt a little...
Speaking of which, the state of Lu was unable to switch to weapons and armor, and they should bear a little responsibility.
Chen Bo and Su Dan just looked at the crazy Zuoqiu, one of the elegant four sons of the Lu Kingdom, as if he didn't exist anymore.
"Do you know the white moonflowers in our country of Lu? Although they are not as eye-catching and sunny as the sunflowers in Dagan, they are also very beautiful. They bloom all over the mountains and rivers, but at this moment, those white white moonflowers are It's all the blood of the people of our country of Lu..."
Chen Bo's body trembled, and a blood-stained scene on the grass full of small white flowers appeared in his mind.
Amidst Zuoqiu's frenzied voice, Chen Bai whispered like a mosquito, "Actually... Actually, it's not impossible for the king to agree to turn around weapons and armor."
The sound was very small, Zuo Qiu should not have heard it.
Because Zuo Qiu smashed the wine in his hand with a slap, and walked away.
The wine splashed all over the floor, just like the fake friendship between them, which was turned over as soon as it was said.
Chen Bo looked at the guqin left by Zuoqiu, only to realize that Zuoqiu forgot to take it away.
Zuoqiu should like this qin very much, playing the qin every day.
He picked up the piano and prepared to return it to Zuoqiu.
At this time, an envoy from the State of Lu came over, "The young master once said that this piano will be given to the Grand Master Zhaoxue."
"This piano was a gift from your master's benefactor, but it's a pity that Mr. Zuoqiu's benefactor died when the Ba people massacred the city."
Chen Bo's body trembled.
Holding the piano, it is very heavy.
In fact, he can help. If he can fulfill Zuoqiu's righteousness, it will not harm the interests of Daqian, but he has to take some risks.
……
Zuoqiu led a group of envoys into the city, and there was no trace of drunkenness on his face.
The envoy next to him asked, "Then Grand Master Zhaoxue will really help us? Why would he help us?"
Zuoqiu had no expression on his face, "Everyone has weaknesses, and his weaknesses are too obvious."
"In times of chaos among nations, what is most undesirable is a heart of compassion."
As a rich man, he would beat the drums to complain for ordinary people, he would smile because an old man on the side of the road sold a few more bowls of rough tea, and he would listen to him talking about the war in Lu State and he could not bear it...
Such a person has obvious shortcomings.
But such a person can always make people want to get closer involuntarily.
These few days are not the happiest period of time for him.
The Lu State envoy continued, "Young Master, how can you be sure that he is capable of helping us? Even if he is the eldest son of the Tingwei Mansion, one of the Nine Ministers, even if he is a scholar of Hongwen Pavilion, he can't get in the way of such things. Bar."
Zuoqiu replied, "He said he had a solution. Although his voice was low, I... heard it."
Lu State Envoy: "..."
……
On the second day, Daqian was above the court.
The king is on the top, the three princes are on the front, the nine ministers are separated, and the officials are in place.
A group of envoys from the State of Lu submitted letters of credence, requesting that weapons and armor be transferred to deal with the war with the State of Ba.
"My country of Lu is willing to use "Lu Gong's Secret Record" as a source, plus food as a yardstick, in exchange for the support weapons and armor of the generals..."
In the past few days, the king and the three public officials have already discussed it properly. Although the "Secret Records of Lu Gong" is important, but under the weight of it, they still cannot give them this weapon and armor.
If you have "Lu Gong Secret Record", you will be invincible in the world, and the state of Lu will not come to the point of asking for help.
Besides, didn't they already get half of the book?
The letter of credence has been handed in, the above request is clear, and it is sealed with the jade seal of the state of Lu.
Now it's time for the king to return a letter of credence.
The atmosphere at the scene has already explained everything, if the deal is successful, they will not be so silent.
Your Majesty asked people to start drafting the letter of credence that had already been set.
The envoys of the State of Lu glanced at each other, their faces darkened, and the trip was in vain after all.
At this time, suddenly a servant rushed in.
"Report to Your Majesty, the Hongwenge Zhaoxue University Scholars are making noise outside, but all the soldiers chase them away and refuse to listen, saying that there is something important that cannot be delayed and must be reported now."
As soon as the words fell, Chen Shouye scolded, "Nonsense."
His ancestors, his son has only stopped for a few days, and he is about to turn the world upside down again. The court said that he can get on if he can?
If he had a bad heart, he probably would have lay down on the ground many times.
Every time something goes wrong, which one does not have to lose his head.
Chen Shouye came out with a dark face, "The dog is ignorant, please punish him severely by hitting him with [-] slaps, so as to make an example to others."
Broke my heart.
But what was surprising was that among the envoys of the Lu Kingdom, Zuoqiu suddenly said, "This statement is different. The Grand Master Zhaoxue came to this hall today because of my appointment, so please give me your permission."
A group of people: "..."
What's the meaning?If this is the case, why didn't I mention it before, it needs to be made like this
The king was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, "Xuan."
……
Chen Bo didn't sleep all night last night. To be honest, the world is constantly fighting and fighting, but it has nothing to do with him. He himself is living so hard...
But for some reason, he just didn't dare to look at the piano in his room.
Even in a dream, the dream is full of white moonflowers that Zuoqiu said are all over the mountains and plains, but they are stained red with blood.
"If... If I hadn't read the half-volume of "Lu Gong Secret Records", would the king really agree to give them the weapons and armor as a turnover?"
Although he himself thinks it is impossible, whoever can be so 100% sure that there is no such possibility.
He tossed and turned so sad.
I finally got up, took out my phone, and stayed up all night.
When Chen Bo went up to the hall, his dark circles were so obvious that he was taken aback.
I'm afraid that Grandma Zhaoxue went to do something last night.
With Zuoqiu's words in front of him, although the officials were puzzled as to why Chen Zifu went to the palace, they didn't open their mouths.
On the contrary, Chen Shouye couldn't hold back, and said, "What's the matter with disturbing the court? If there is something important, why don't you play it quickly."
The worry in my heart, look at other people's sons, isn't it good for him to behave peacefully?Although the son of someone else's family is so old, he probably can't achieve the position of Hongwenge Grand Bachelor.
As a result, when Chen Bai made a sound, Chen Shouye really shook several times.
"My Majesty, it is a great joy for the envoys of Lu Kingdom to come to me to exchange weapons and armor. I also ask for your Majesty's permission."
A group of people looked at Chen Bai, did they hear correctly?
I heard that Young Master Bai has been hanging out with Zuoqiu from Lu State every day recently, and this Zuoqiu is notoriously good at scheming.
Could it be that in just a few days, Young Master Bai was instigated against him?
This Zuoqiu is too...
The king was so angry that he laughed, "Why is there such a joy? How come all my officials have not seen where this joy comes from? If I don't tell the reason today, I am afraid that the crime of disturbance will be unavoidable."
If he was really used as a gun, he deserved the punishment today.
As a result, Chen Baiyu was not surprised and kept dying, "The existing weapons and armor are rubbish to me, it is a pity to throw them away, it is a waste, why not just exchange them for the Lu State, and recover some of the cost."
"Things that are useless to me, I can't keep them moldy."
"So it's not just right to exchange these useless things for the Lu country that needs it. Not only the Lu country, but also other countries want to return them."
stupid!
Weapons and armor are useless to Dagan?
Give it to anyone who wants it?
I'm afraid that Chen Zifu is not crazy, but he was born in a family of martial arts, and he was taught by famous teachers since he was a child, so how could he say such nonsense.
Chen Shouye was really sweating this time, and his son probably lost most of his life.
Zuo Qiu was also confused.
He calculated that Chen Bo would find a way to help him, but he didn't expect that it would be such a wild talk.
The king's face turned dark, and he thought he was just listening to the opinions of the younger generation, but he almost couldn't sit still.
Just as he was about to reprimand him, drag him out and beat him dozens of times, Chen Bai already took out a fold from his sleeve, and handed it over respectfully, "Your Majesty will know it at a glance."
His Majesty accepted the note from the servant, he wanted to see how a well-behaved scholar Zhaoxue became so crazy after spending a few days with the envoys of the Lu State.
As a result, I opened it and saw that my hand
You say he is wrong?Others are maintaining the general discipline, such a loyal person, if they are in normal times, they will be rewarded.
But now, no matter how you listen to it, it’s not a good taste. Even if you see it clearly in your heart, you can’t wait until the battle with Lu State is over?
Gan Xun couldn't help but asked Shang Wangshu next to him, "So clear about the law, is he from the Ministry of Punishment? I don't know how he got promoted because he has no eyesight."
Shang Wangshu's face was also not good-looking, maybe he had to be busy after the banquet, and replied, "I usually look smart, except for climbing up, I like to climb a little bit, why is it so confusing now? "
Gan Xun snorted, "So it's not like he's born with blind eyesight, which is interesting."
Who said no, at such an important moment, in order to bite Chen Zifu and the tiger, dare to stand up, how much hatred is there?
Or... how much grievance does the person behind him have with Chen Zifu and Tiger?
Gan Xun's sentence is interesting, and it has a special meaning.
The two looked at each other and stopped talking.
At the envoy of the State of Lu, Zuoqiu lifted the corner of his mouth and raised his glass, "I have long heard that the laws of Dagan are the most stringent among all the kingdoms. I never thought I would have the opportunity to see them today."
I wanted to raise the topic many times just now, but I was suppressed by the officials who came to toast me. I didn't expect it to be brought up automatically now.
After finishing speaking, he raised his glass and signaled to Chen Bai, "As a Bachelor of Zhaoxue in Hongwenge, some know the law and break the law, so I don't know how to defend myself?"
Chen Bo: "..."
Zuoqiu really didn't let go of any opportunity to stir up a topic, and now he has started to try the case for Daqian?
The official who provoked the incident just now shrank his head, "I am also seeking truth from facts, and I would like to ask the University of Zhaoxue to make it clear that your teacher brewed all these wines without permission?"
Chen Bai narrowed his eyes, seeking truth from facts. At this time, the envoys of various countries came to question him face to face, in order to maintain the fairness of the Daqian Law. Are... deliberately targeting yourself?
He didn't know this person, and to be honest, he didn't know when he offended him.
Chen Bo frowned, did he admit to the crime or not?
Now it is no longer a competition of whose wine is better, but the face of Dagan, which is the dignity of the country.
"This wine is indeed brewed by my teacher." Chen Bo said, "But if you say it is wine, it is wine, and if you say it is not it, it is not."
Everyone was taken aback, what is the meaning of this?
Zuoqiu laughed, "Whose wine was stronger than what we were comparing just now, the Grand Master Zhaoxue also went to get the wine, why do you say it's not wine now? Then what did the Grand Master Zhaoxue let us drink?"
Either Chen Zifu used this excuse to escape from accountability, or this is not wine at all, how can it compare with his Lu country wine?
Choose one of the two, no matter how you choose, there will always be one that is beneficial to the country of Lu.
Chen Bo said, "Listen to me. The last time I went to the palace to treat the queen mother's legs, I found that the queen mother suffered from a disease called rheumatism. This disease is troublesome, but it is not impossible to cure. Wet sore spirits work extremely fast."
"After going down, I told the teacher, and then the teacher brewed this strong wine."
"That's why it's not wine. It was originally brewed for medicinal purposes. If it weren't for the fact that the envoys of Lu State had to compete with each other for stronger wine, they wouldn't bring it up as wine."
"So..." Chen Bo looked at the official who was responsible, "You said that my teacher brewed wine privately, but Zifu would not agree, because the teacher clearly brewed medicine."
After finishing speaking, he looked at Zuoqiu again, "Of course, in this situation, it can also be used as a wine envoy to compete with Lu Guo."
"I don't know if I can explain this to your satisfaction"
Zuoqiu's expression was determined: "Whether it's wine or medicine, it's you who said it all by yourself. Zuoqiu first came to Beijing, and he didn't know how capable this Hongwenge Zhaoxue University Scholar is, but how clever he is. Today, I have seen it, and my mouth is black." I can tell you the truth, that’s how Dagan judged the case? Zuoqiu has increased his knowledge.”
Chen Bai smiled, "I, the University of Zhaoxue, really don't have much ability, but I also know that I don't need envoys from other countries to judge the case, and I also know that as an envoy of other countries, interfering in the affairs of other countries is very harmful. All right."
This is more straightforward, Zuoqiu, do your duty, and stir up any flames, even if you are truly guilty, you don't need to judge.
Zuoqiu raised his glass again and looked at the previous official, "I'm just being reasonable. Of course, you have the final say on how to judge. I think this one seems to be familiar with Daqian Law. What do you think?"
Anyway, just refused to let this topic end.
Sweat began to drip from the official's face, he just interjected a sentence, just to let everyone know that the tiger's private brewing of wine violated the law and was not tolerated by the law.
How did he know that these people had to ask him to come out and make it clear, he just wanted to curry favor with the crown prince, and the crown prince finally gave him such a chance, an insignificant official like him originally had no chance to speak on such occasions, but now It has become the focus of everyone.
Gan Xun and Shang Wangshu sighed, were they used as spearmen by others, or were they used by different people and people with different standpoints.
The official kept wiping his sweat, and his voice stammered, "Anyway... Anyway, it's written in the Daqian Law."
Chen Bo was also thinking about who it was, and he never forgot to pull him into the water at such a time.
Someone he didn't know, who suddenly wanted him to be charged so hard, and the wine waiter who stumbled him inexplicably just now, if he hadn't prepared enough wine, he might be to blame.
These palace servants are not at the mercy of anyone. Such a mistake, no matter whether it is intentional or deliberate on this occasion, may not escape death.
Knowing that he would die but still being so resolute, that means the identity of the person behind it must not be simple.
And... it should be right above this banquet.
Chen Bo's eyes moved and their eye sockets drooped.
The people of the Lu Kingdom were waiting for a sentence, when the superior, the king suddenly said, "You guys have been arguing for so long over these trivial matters? It's disturbing Yazhi."
"This king asked the tiger to make this wine to heal the queen mother's legs, so what's wrong?"
Chen Bo was stunned for a moment, and finally the pot was taken by the king?
After all, what he brought was indeed wine. No matter how he defended himself, it was just a rhetoric. If he really insisted on it, he couldn't help it. There must be an identity that is absolutely unquestionable.
Chen Bai couldn't help but look at Qi Zheng. Last time he asked Qi Zheng to give him a tactful message to the king. This time the people of the Lu country will definitely attack him, and the king has to do something about it.
Qi Zheng nodded. He brought the words with him. As for whether to be tactful or not, he followed the original words anyway.
A moment of silence.
Then Gan Xun said, "Your Majesty is filial, I will wait for you to imitate it..."
Your Majesty: "Scholar Zhaoxue, don't hesitate to let the envoys of the State of Lu taste your wine."
Zuoqiu smiled, "Today I really gained knowledge."
In the end, Chen Bo poured him the wine himself, and he couldn't seem to gag this man's mouth. This Zuoqiu is nothing but a shit stick. He just guarded this Zuoqiu today and drank all the time, so you can make trouble again.
Holding the wine, Chen Bai whispered to Zuoqiu, "I felt sorry for you before, but you didn't give in too much today, you just kept trying to beat people to death."
Zuoqiu was stunned for a moment, what happened to this Zhaoxue University scholar?Everyone knows this kind of thing well. Isn't it embarrassing for him to say it so directly?
Just as he was about to speak, Chen Bo said loudly, "The envoys of the State of Lu came to Beijing for the first time, how dare you drink this bowl of wine with me?"
Zuoqiu: "..."
How could this sudden enthusiasm not have the slightest reservation of a literati.
Chen Bo didn't care about him, he tilted his head up to drink, full of posture, but drank in small sips, this is high-grade baijiu, if he drank it in a real bowl, he might perforate his stomach.
Zuo Qiu snorted coldly, raised his head and drank.
As a result, it spit out with a "poof".
His face was flushed, burnt by wine.
Chen Bo laughed, "How strong is my wine?"
When the others saw it, they couldn't help being taken aback, is it really so strong?
At this time, the waiter of Bujiu basically came to them, "How is this wine so clear? The color is like clear water, but the smell is full of wine fragrance."
In ancient times, winemaking was somewhat impure due to technical problems. It was really difficult to make it as clear as water, and it would have the color of grain to some extent.
Many people also looked at the wine in the bowl, "It's really clear."
Chen Bo said, "The queen mother might as well drink some, it can help the blood flow smoothly."
Chen Bo didn't talk nonsense either, for a sick person like the Queen Mother who has been sitting in a wheelchair all year round, it is indeed beneficial to drink a little in moderation, which fulfills what he said just now that it is medicine.
The old lady glanced at Chen Bai, and said, "Scholar Zhaoxue has worked hard today, this wine must be drunk."
Chen Bo: "..."
This old lady is really...
If you are more emotional, you should not shed tears of gratitude.
The old lady took a sip in front of Chen Bo, and Chen Bo didn't dare to neglect, so she quickly drank it too.
Zuo Qiu finally recovered his breath, his face was still red, and anyone who has choked on strong alcohol must know that the taste is not very good.
Just as he was about to speak, Chen Bai handed over the wine again, "I've heard the name of the fourth son of the State of Lu, Zifu, for a long time, and seeing Zuoqiu today, I really hit it off right away. Come, come, drink this bowl to the brim."
People around: "..."
The person who was fighting to the death just now, now hits it off?
Chen Bocai didn't care, if the shit-stirring stick was allowed to speak, it would be a disaster.
Next, they saw Chen Bai and Zuo Qiu having a good time drinking there, and they almost hooked their shoulders.
"Zuoqiu, we have many interesting places in Beijing, why don't I take you around?"
Zuoqiu didn't want to talk, he had never seen such a shameless person.
"Zuoqiu, why don't we go to the imperial prince's fief to roast rabbits, the rabbits there are big and fat, I guarantee you haven't seen them before."
Zuoqiu's face turned dark, and he said in a low voice, "Fuck you, whoever went to roast rabbits with you, our vendetta is not over yet."
"What are you talking about? What kind of enmity? Zuoqiu came all the way, so I want to do my best to be a landlord and have another drink."
Zuoqiu looked at Chen Bai who was pulling his sleeve, how could this man... how could he be so brazen, in public, they were still at odds just now, but now they look like old friends for many years.
Shameless.
I couldn't help but sat down to the side.
Chen Bo thought, from now on, if this Zuoqiu still makes trouble, his name will be written upside down.
The banquet finally looked like a banquet, with continuous singing and dancing, and the sound of wine glasses colliding.
Just looking at the Grand Master Zhaoxue who insisted on dragging others to drink together, I always felt that the scene was a little weird.
If Zuoqiu couldn't get into a fit, there would definitely be a big shadow in his heart.
It was not until the envoys of the State of Lu began to submit the "Secret Records of Lu Gong" that Chen Bai left Zuoqiu's position.
Although Chen Bo always drank in small sips, he also drank a lot and was slightly tipsy.
Returning to his place, Sudan couldn't help but say, "You're so shameless, I'm ashamed when I look at it, then Zuoqiu will almost knock you to the ground, and you won't be afraid of embarrassment then."
Chen Bo laughed, "You still have the nerve to say, if I hadn't blocked his mouth, with the sword in his words, you think he can spare you, and you won't be able to stab your blood."
Su Dan shivered, "I know what we call such a smooth-talking courtier in troubled times in our country of Zhao."
Chen Baixin said, that's not true, if Zuo Qiu continues to sow discord like this, he doesn't know what will happen to others, he himself guesses that there is always the risk of his head moving.
……
His Majesty flipped through the "Secret Records of Lu Gong" handed over by the envoys of the State of Lu, and couldn't help but glance at Chen Bo.
It's actually exactly the same as Chen Bomo's content, and even the pictures are almost exactly the same.
The reason why Chen Bo was silent for a while, instead of directly printing the photos on the phone, was because he knew that the king would definitely see "The Secret Record of Lu Gong".
The king flipped through the pages, saw the last part torn off, and couldn't help asking, "I don't know what the envoy of the State of Lu meant?"
Zuoqiu thought in his heart, he was ashamed to ask, if he didn't watch out, who knows what tricks he would play, and thanks to his extra thought at that time, otherwise he would have cried to death.
In the end, the king returned the "Secret Records of Duke Lu" to the envoys of the State of Lu, because they already had a copy of such things.
As for whether to turn weapons around, the king only said that it needs to be discussed, and he doesn't know if it is a real discussion or just an excuse.
Thus ended a banquet.
When leaving, the envoy of the State of Lu asked Zuoqiu, "Shall we let it go? I really can't be reconciled, and there is also that Zhaoxue University scholar who makes things difficult for us everywhere..."
Zuoqiu replied, "It's just the beginning, how can we stop? Continue tomorrow."
Sitting in the carriage, Chen Bai was also thinking, who would want to drag him into the water on such an occasion today.
Although I have some thoughts in my heart, there is no evidence after all.
As for the Prince's Mansion, at Prince Jiao's place, a housekeeper hurried in, "Your Highness, that... that servant who served wine was just summoned by the Empress Dowager."
The crown prince was stunned, "What? Didn't the king grant him death? Why was he summoned by the queen mother again?"
The internal affairs thought, how does he know, the first news is that he has been given to death, but the current news is that he was taken to the queen mother.
The internal affairs added another sentence, "The speaker at the banquet was also summoned by the Queen Mother, and he is on his way."
Prince Jiao's complexion changed, and he paced back and forth, "Before the speaker enters the palace, send such a message to him..."
The housekeeper couldn't help asking, "Is there... useful? That's the Queen Mother Zhaosheng, the backbone of my work."
Prince Jiao: "..."
Finally, his face sank, "Then he will never be able to enter the palace."
Don't blame him, no matter how powerful the mother is, she can't ask anything from a dead person.
……
In front of the imperial palace, a servant who died in battle.
The old lady and the king stood facing each other, and the people around them dared not even breathe.
After a while, the old lady said, "It seems that there is no need to wait. He can't enter the palace, and he probably won't be able to speak after entering the palace. He is cruel, but he can't distinguish the seriousness and the situation. joke."
After speaking, he no longer waited for the result, but was pushed away.
The king is very unhappy right now.
After all, was his choice wrong?
He didn't say anything, but wrote an imperial edict, "Give the crown prince fifteen punishments."
He also added, "If he comes to make trouble, he doesn't have to report it, and he will be punished for fifteen years."
It's really chilling.
……
On the second day, Lu Guo Posthouse.
Zuo Qiu was leading people out, but as soon as he left the post station, he saw Chen Bai standing outside with a smile.
Chen Bo said that if Zuoqiu was allowed to stir up trouble again and his name was written upside down, he was not joking.
"Brother Zuoqiu, the meeting yesterday was really unforgettable. It's hard to find a confidant. How about traveling to Beijing together today?" Chen Bo said.
The people of Lu State looked at each other in blank dismay. They had never seen such a familiar and shameless person. Why is it hard to find a confidant?Yesterday, Mingming wished he could step on the other party into the mud.
Zuoqiu also twitched the corner of his mouth, how thick-skinned is this Zhaoxue University scholar?
Just as he was about to speak, Chen Bai stepped forward and pulled his sleeve, as if he was a good brother, "No matter what, let me do my landlord's favor today."
A few students with dogs followed, "Yes, yes, go to our classmate's for cupping first."
These Lu people dared to smash their pots. Some people thought that they were not good at learning and they were smashed. What can they do, they have to let Zuoqiu go cupping again.
Zuoqiu was very confused, and in the end, he held hands, held hands, and hugged feet, and just dragged the person away.
This is Shangjing, Zuoqiu didn't take many people with him when he went out, for example, he didn't take Jianshou Ranzhi with him. In his heart, "Lu Gong's Secret Record" is more important than his life, and more people have to stay in the post to guard "Lu Gong Secret Record".
When Zuoqiu was dragged to the stall, the envoys of the Lu Kingdom came to their senses and were about to step forward to stop him. At this time, a few children with dogs stood in front of him viciously, "Dare to step forward and kill him!" you."
This is a group of lawless second-generation ancestors, and there are many servants behind each of them.
As a result, the envoys of Lu State watched Zuoqiu being held there helplessly.
Zuoqiu didn't struggle anymore, because it was a bit embarrassing, but he still raised his head and looked at Chen Bai viciously, "Rude, after all, he is also a Hongwenge University scholar, and he did such a thing in the street."
Chen Bo was taken aback, "It's really rude, this is a good thing, if you don't believe me, ask someone to pull out two pots for me."
Zuoqiu: "..."
People from the State of Lu: "..."
And then there are even more surprises.
I saw a smiling child next to him saying, "Don't be afraid, I also cupped the cups for the prince and my father."
So this is really a prince?The prince who set up a stall on the side of the road?Just now I saw him yelling there with a smile so hard to see.
This big dry custom is too weird.
Chen Bai was still saying, "Zuoqiu came from a long distance, and he must be exhausted after working so hard. Cupping is just right. By the way, it would be even better if Gan Shisan gave you a few needles. Gan Shisan He is the grandson of Duke Gan, and he usually has the best business in setting up stalls, and he is very skilled."
Zuoqiu: "..."
The dignitaries who work hard are not too particular.
Then he stopped talking, because several children yelled, "Everyone, come and see, Mr. Zuoqiu from the state of Lu is also cupping with us. Mr. Zuoqiu said yes, yesterday he said that people from the state of Lu smashed our stall. It's nonsense."
Zuoqiu: "..."
It was obviously following him.
Zuoqiu was also easygoing, seeing that he couldn't resist, and seeing that Chen Bai was being tortured in the same way, he simply stopped talking.
As for cupping, pulling out is a pleasure and an enjoyment.
Chen Xiaobu and the others looked at it for a while, then looked at the dagger at Chen Bai's waist, "Brother, this is the peerless swordfish sausage made by Ou Yezi, the master craftsman of Yue Kingdom? Let us have a look."
Chen Bo said, "This sword is sharp, so be careful."
"We don't pull it out, just play with it."
Zuoqiu: "..."
Really carry this peerless famous sword with you, even if it is their country of Lu, they have to keep it well.
I don't know if this cupping is really useful, or if he was tired on the road, and now he can lie down for a while, his body is really relaxed.
It's just that the other envoys of the Lu Kingdom have weird expressions on their faces.
What happened to those big cakes on their young master Zuoqiu?
Chen Bai continued, "Even if you go to see the king today, you won't be able to see him. Why don't you walk your dog around with us and visit Shangjing? At Zuoqiu's age, you probably haven't been to foreign countries much."
Zuoqiu snorted, "Don't think I don't know what you're doing, talk like we're really friends, and don't feel ashamed."
Chen Bo: "..."
Don't say it, it's embarrassing to say it.
No, how can he be embarrassed by himself, he has to pull out the prince Sultan.
So, when Chen Bo and the others went to watch the sunflowers outside the city and raised a fire to roast rabbits under the city wall, there was another Sultan with a big white dog.
Chen Xiaobu and Prince Ning are painting sunflowers with easels, and the merchant brothers and Gan Xin are helping to roast rabbits for fun.
The rabbit was specially sent from Qi Zheng's fiefdom.
Chen Bo, Su Dan and Zuo Qiu were sitting at the tea stall next to the official road and chatting.
Chen Bo put some copper coins, ordered some rough tea, and asked the old tea seller from time to time, "How is the business?"
The old man smiled, "Since these flowers were planted on this road, more people came to rest their feet, and they would drink a bowl of tea anyway. Life is much better than before."
Chen Bo also chattered with a smile.
Zuo Qiu looked at Chen Bo in a daze. After two days of inquiring about Chen Bo's information, he had already found out very clearly.
It's really unimaginable that such a person as the eldest son of Tingwei's mansion and the grand scholar of Hongwen Pavilion would drag him and Prince Zhao to sit at a roadside stall and chat enthusiastically with ordinary people.
He looked left and right at the smile on the old man's face, and at the common people on the road looking at the flowers.
Zuoqiu didn't know what he thought of, but his face showed sadness, and he suddenly sighed, "The sight of the people in Dagan living and working in peace and contentment is really enviable, but it's a pity that the people of our Lu Kingdom are still in war and their homes have been destroyed. , up and down, life and death unknown."
"Scholar Zhaoxue is still in the mood to drag Zuoqiu around to play, but he doesn't know that Zuoqiu is very anxious."
The smile on Chen Bai's face froze.
He knew what Zuoqiu was talking about, even reproaches and reprimands were no match for the lament in these words.
It is to say that he only knows the happiness in front of him and does not know the suffering of others.
Sudan opened his mouth and said, "Even without us, Daqian would not be able to turn around weapons and armor for you. Not to mention offending Pakistan, how can it be so simple to give other countries such important weapons."
Zuo Qiu looked at the two of them, "Isn't it impossible to complete the "Secret Records of Lu Gong"? You know how important "Secret Records of Lu Gong" is to Daqian."
Chen Bo, Sudan: "..."
After all, they used their own abilities to destroy the hope of the Lu State, and they were not kind enough.
Fortunately, the merchant brothers and Gan Xin's rabbits were roasted, cut with a knife, and served on a plate.
For the next few days, Chen Bo just accompanied Zuoqiu, wandering around in Shangjing, and under the walls of Shangjing, you can often see bonfires roasting rabbits.
The soldiers guarding the city wall glanced at it from time to time.
Zuoqiu didn't know why, but he actually started to introduce the style of Lu country to Chen Bai and the others.
The state of Lu was originally a country with prosperous culture and education, and it practiced Zhou rituals, which is quite desirable.
It's just that the battle is raging now.
Chen Bai also saw the style of Lu country in Zuoqiu.
Dressed in Tsing Yi and a Changqin, it makes people mesmerized.
The envoys of the State of Lu said even more proudly that their son Zuoqiu is the best at playing the piano among the four sons of the State of Lu.
It turns out that this young master Zuoqiu, apart from his sharp mouth, actually has such a good taste.
I heard that the people of Lu are elegant and know how to play some musical instruments.
Chen Bo also learned from Zuoqiu, but...
"Brother, why do you caress this piano like a butcher?"
"That's right, Zuoqiu caresses nicely."
Chen Bai's face turned dark.
In the past few days, it's not bad to play the piano while sketching and playing. It seems that I have forgotten those annoying things and the conflicts between them.
But what should come will come after all.
"Tomorrow is the time for me to formally submit my credentials to the Great King."
Under the city wall, Chen Bo, Sudan, and Zuo Qiu were eating roasted rabbits and drinking wine.
Today's Zuoqiu looked a bit lonely, perhaps because he had drunk too much and his face was slightly drunk.
The last banquet was just a little mention of the purpose of their coming, and the official submission of credentials was when Dagan gave the answer. Once the answer was given, there would be no change.
Zuoqiu gulped down the wine, this wine was bought by Chen Bai, the alcohol was not low, heartburn.
Zuoqiu drank too hard, and his expression seemed a little crazy, "The people of Lu Kingdom are so innocent, why do they have to suffer from the flames of war..."
The clothes were wet with wine, and the voice was unwilling and angry.
Zuoqiu looked crazy, "Wine is good wine, and meat is good meat. It's a pity that the drinker is not a good person."
hiss.
After getting along for the past few days, how can you say that on the surface it is quite harmonious, plus Zuo Qiu taught Chen Bai the customs of the Lu country and taught them how to play the piano. Like a big brother.
But at this time...
Zuoqiu actually took advantage of Jiu Jin to tear away all the disguise, and said everything.
Maybe Zuoqiu was drunk and didn't feel anything, but Chen Bo and Sudan felt a little...
Speaking of which, the state of Lu was unable to switch to weapons and armor, and they should bear a little responsibility.
Chen Bo and Su Dan just looked at the crazy Zuoqiu, one of the elegant four sons of the Lu Kingdom, as if he didn't exist anymore.
"Do you know the white moonflowers in our country of Lu? Although they are not as eye-catching and sunny as the sunflowers in Dagan, they are also very beautiful. They bloom all over the mountains and rivers, but at this moment, those white white moonflowers are It's all the blood of the people of our country of Lu..."
Chen Bo's body trembled, and a blood-stained scene on the grass full of small white flowers appeared in his mind.
Amidst Zuoqiu's frenzied voice, Chen Bai whispered like a mosquito, "Actually... Actually, it's not impossible for the king to agree to turn around weapons and armor."
The sound was very small, Zuo Qiu should not have heard it.
Because Zuo Qiu smashed the wine in his hand with a slap, and walked away.
The wine splashed all over the floor, just like the fake friendship between them, which was turned over as soon as it was said.
Chen Bo looked at the guqin left by Zuoqiu, only to realize that Zuoqiu forgot to take it away.
Zuoqiu should like this qin very much, playing the qin every day.
He picked up the piano and prepared to return it to Zuoqiu.
At this time, an envoy from the State of Lu came over, "The young master once said that this piano will be given to the Grand Master Zhaoxue."
"This piano was a gift from your master's benefactor, but it's a pity that Mr. Zuoqiu's benefactor died when the Ba people massacred the city."
Chen Bo's body trembled.
Holding the piano, it is very heavy.
In fact, he can help. If he can fulfill Zuoqiu's righteousness, it will not harm the interests of Daqian, but he has to take some risks.
……
Zuoqiu led a group of envoys into the city, and there was no trace of drunkenness on his face.
The envoy next to him asked, "Then Grand Master Zhaoxue will really help us? Why would he help us?"
Zuoqiu had no expression on his face, "Everyone has weaknesses, and his weaknesses are too obvious."
"In times of chaos among nations, what is most undesirable is a heart of compassion."
As a rich man, he would beat the drums to complain for ordinary people, he would smile because an old man on the side of the road sold a few more bowls of rough tea, and he would listen to him talking about the war in Lu State and he could not bear it...
Such a person has obvious shortcomings.
But such a person can always make people want to get closer involuntarily.
These few days are not the happiest period of time for him.
The Lu State envoy continued, "Young Master, how can you be sure that he is capable of helping us? Even if he is the eldest son of the Tingwei Mansion, one of the Nine Ministers, even if he is a scholar of Hongwen Pavilion, he can't get in the way of such things. Bar."
Zuoqiu replied, "He said he had a solution. Although his voice was low, I... heard it."
Lu State Envoy: "..."
……
On the second day, Daqian was above the court.
The king is on the top, the three princes are on the front, the nine ministers are separated, and the officials are in place.
A group of envoys from the State of Lu submitted letters of credence, requesting that weapons and armor be transferred to deal with the war with the State of Ba.
"My country of Lu is willing to use "Lu Gong's Secret Record" as a source, plus food as a yardstick, in exchange for the support weapons and armor of the generals..."
In the past few days, the king and the three public officials have already discussed it properly. Although the "Secret Records of Lu Gong" is important, but under the weight of it, they still cannot give them this weapon and armor.
If you have "Lu Gong Secret Record", you will be invincible in the world, and the state of Lu will not come to the point of asking for help.
Besides, didn't they already get half of the book?
The letter of credence has been handed in, the above request is clear, and it is sealed with the jade seal of the state of Lu.
Now it's time for the king to return a letter of credence.
The atmosphere at the scene has already explained everything, if the deal is successful, they will not be so silent.
Your Majesty asked people to start drafting the letter of credence that had already been set.
The envoys of the State of Lu glanced at each other, their faces darkened, and the trip was in vain after all.
At this time, suddenly a servant rushed in.
"Report to Your Majesty, the Hongwenge Zhaoxue University Scholars are making noise outside, but all the soldiers chase them away and refuse to listen, saying that there is something important that cannot be delayed and must be reported now."
As soon as the words fell, Chen Shouye scolded, "Nonsense."
His ancestors, his son has only stopped for a few days, and he is about to turn the world upside down again. The court said that he can get on if he can?
If he had a bad heart, he probably would have lay down on the ground many times.
Every time something goes wrong, which one does not have to lose his head.
Chen Shouye came out with a dark face, "The dog is ignorant, please punish him severely by hitting him with [-] slaps, so as to make an example to others."
Broke my heart.
But what was surprising was that among the envoys of the Lu Kingdom, Zuoqiu suddenly said, "This statement is different. The Grand Master Zhaoxue came to this hall today because of my appointment, so please give me your permission."
A group of people: "..."
What's the meaning?If this is the case, why didn't I mention it before, it needs to be made like this
The king was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, "Xuan."
……
Chen Bo didn't sleep all night last night. To be honest, the world is constantly fighting and fighting, but it has nothing to do with him. He himself is living so hard...
But for some reason, he just didn't dare to look at the piano in his room.
Even in a dream, the dream is full of white moonflowers that Zuoqiu said are all over the mountains and plains, but they are stained red with blood.
"If... If I hadn't read the half-volume of "Lu Gong Secret Records", would the king really agree to give them the weapons and armor as a turnover?"
Although he himself thinks it is impossible, whoever can be so 100% sure that there is no such possibility.
He tossed and turned so sad.
I finally got up, took out my phone, and stayed up all night.
When Chen Bo went up to the hall, his dark circles were so obvious that he was taken aback.
I'm afraid that Grandma Zhaoxue went to do something last night.
With Zuoqiu's words in front of him, although the officials were puzzled as to why Chen Zifu went to the palace, they didn't open their mouths.
On the contrary, Chen Shouye couldn't hold back, and said, "What's the matter with disturbing the court? If there is something important, why don't you play it quickly."
The worry in my heart, look at other people's sons, isn't it good for him to behave peacefully?Although the son of someone else's family is so old, he probably can't achieve the position of Hongwenge Grand Bachelor.
As a result, when Chen Bai made a sound, Chen Shouye really shook several times.
"My Majesty, it is a great joy for the envoys of Lu Kingdom to come to me to exchange weapons and armor. I also ask for your Majesty's permission."
A group of people looked at Chen Bai, did they hear correctly?
I heard that Young Master Bai has been hanging out with Zuoqiu from Lu State every day recently, and this Zuoqiu is notoriously good at scheming.
Could it be that in just a few days, Young Master Bai was instigated against him?
This Zuoqiu is too...
The king was so angry that he laughed, "Why is there such a joy? How come all my officials have not seen where this joy comes from? If I don't tell the reason today, I am afraid that the crime of disturbance will be unavoidable."
If he was really used as a gun, he deserved the punishment today.
As a result, Chen Baiyu was not surprised and kept dying, "The existing weapons and armor are rubbish to me, it is a pity to throw them away, it is a waste, why not just exchange them for the Lu State, and recover some of the cost."
"Things that are useless to me, I can't keep them moldy."
"So it's not just right to exchange these useless things for the Lu country that needs it. Not only the Lu country, but also other countries want to return them."
stupid!
Weapons and armor are useless to Dagan?
Give it to anyone who wants it?
I'm afraid that Chen Zifu is not crazy, but he was born in a family of martial arts, and he was taught by famous teachers since he was a child, so how could he say such nonsense.
Chen Shouye was really sweating this time, and his son probably lost most of his life.
Zuo Qiu was also confused.
He calculated that Chen Bo would find a way to help him, but he didn't expect that it would be such a wild talk.
The king's face turned dark, and he thought he was just listening to the opinions of the younger generation, but he almost couldn't sit still.
Just as he was about to reprimand him, drag him out and beat him dozens of times, Chen Bai already took out a fold from his sleeve, and handed it over respectfully, "Your Majesty will know it at a glance."
His Majesty accepted the note from the servant, he wanted to see how a well-behaved scholar Zhaoxue became so crazy after spending a few days with the envoys of the Lu State.
As a result, I opened it and saw that my hand
