Minister

48【Six Years of Jiankang】

It was almost noon when he fell asleep, Wei Chi hurriedly got up and finished washing.Sure enough, several bosses are already waiting!After exchanging a few words of apology, Wei Chi finally started working crazily on the task at hand.Worthy of three days!Wei Chi's hands cramped while writing.

"Good handwriting, Mr. Wei really wrote good handwriting." Lin Zhubo, a surname, came up to compliment him.

"Thank you, thank you!" Wei Chi rubbed his wrist.

At this time, except for Wei Chi, the outer hall was almost full of bosses. These two days were very special times, and those who were able to go to the palace with them crowded over to join in the fun, and there were not many important people left.Master Lin looked at Wei Chi's handwriting carefully, complimented him again, and finally said secretly: "Master Wei's name is well-deserved. When you have time in the future, can you copy a document for your subordinate?"

"Oh? Master Lin, what else do you want me to copy for you?" Wei Chi felt strange.

"Hey, my lord promised it, and don't forget it in the future!" Lin Zhubo knew that Wei Chi was a 'good old man', and he knew he would agree if he didn't evade it.

"Within five hundred words!" Wei Chi thought for a while.

"Don't worry! Don't worry, it's just 28 characters! Runbi is ready." Lin Zhubo helped Wei Chi stack the documents.

28?Quatrains?Wei Chi took a sneak look at Lin Zhubo, raised his eyebrows, and didn't think much about it.

Finally, when the sun was westward, Wei Chi finally managed to cope with the work, stretched his arms, and exited the front hall.The breath of summer sneaked in, and he broke out in a sweat inadvertently. Wei Chi unbuttoned his cuffs and went back to the room slowly.The white flowers inside and outside the walls have already fallen, and the prosperous green leaves are all over the branches, and the garden is full of charming fragrance.

Wei Chi looked at the wall, sighed, and thought of the absurd thing Wang Yunyi told him - little girl, what kind of madness are you doing?How much did you like me without realizing it that night?How can I lose my mind after one night?How high is this wall... At least I can't get over it.

People who are good at drinking are either very bad, so bad that they are heartless, or they are very good, so good that they are heartless.Wei Chi believed that he definitely did not belong to the latter, and felt that the little girl named Naji was not the former. After dawdling for a long time, he decided to explain what he had said. Maybe after explaining, the little girl would be relieved.

"My wife...betrothed three years ago...a wretched wife...If I am a fickle person, how can I be worthy of the Lord?...If I want to be worthy of the Lord, how can I not be a fickle person?... ...My Lord, please forgive me." Wei Chi secretly practiced it a few times, smirked twice, and felt that General Wang was really dark!This lie is too accurate!

The boss of Ke Feng Neng was a tall and strong man, wearing a light mouse gray coat, sitting idly in the alley, listening to the staff quote the price of wine, and at the same time preparing to greet the distinguished guests.This wine house is not only full of people, but it is better than the crowd.The so-called prosperity refers to the reputation in the entire capital—those who know wine must come here, but those who don’t know want to find it, and those who know only know to come here.

The first floor of the winery is a courtyard, even with wine cellars and flower wells. The living room can be more comfortable.This Ke Feng Neng also meant the same thing, all the guests were on the second floor.Seeing that the sun is setting in the west, the boss is shaking his sleeves to welcome this wave of guests in the evening. Several well-known guests have prepared seats tonight, and the best new wines and old cellars will be put on display today.While shaking his sleeves, the boss was admonishing the staff, while secretly looking at the gate of the courtyard.

Finally, when the sun was about to hit the ground, a young man lifted the curtain and entered.

"It's so angry!" The little guy selling wine raised his head with a smile.

This young man looks like a Han Chinese, with delicate features and elegant temperament. He is wearing a dark date-colored robe with a tile-colored silk sash around his waist. An amber egg-shaped jade pendant hangs beside him, and he shakes it every step of the way. .

Where did this Han son come from?The clerk kept his hands on his hands, thinking in his heart, could it be that the noble son of some merchant came to Monan to sell goods?Looking at the clothes, I feel that they are not bright and luxurious enough, um...

The boss came out to greet him: "Vipulative guest!"

Wei Chi was worried about where he was going, when a man who looked like a boss came up to him and nodded quickly.

The boss's accent was not pure, and he slurred a few words. Wei Chi couldn't understand, but he just saw that he was going to lead him in, so he smiled and followed.Upstairs is a hall, many wine tables are arranged around the hearth in the hall, the floor is covered with white reed mats, and there are many utensils made of spices hanging on the roof, showing the exotic style.The boss bowed and showed Wei Chi a small private room. Wei Chi was suspicious, but he had no choice but to open the door and go in to see what happened.

"Wei Chi!" The boy's eyes lit up in the private room.

"Hey!" Wei Chi was shocked when he saw it, this Xiangganaji!He was wearing men's clothing!

"What? Please sit down!" Seeing that Wei Chi recognized him, Xiangge Naji blushed, and thought of his handsome attire, he couldn't help but feel a little proud: "Today, the host invites you to taste wine! "

Surprised, Wei Chi sat down with a smile: "It's 'I' who invites you to taste wine today."

"That's right! That's right! It's so long-winded!" Shingnaji pouted.

Xiangge Naji's attire was somewhat similar to what he wore in the last market, but the girl Naji couldn't hide her coquettish appearance, so she might not be able to coax many people.After Wei Chi sat down and took a closer look at her, he felt that it really took a day or two for this woman to disguise herself as a man.

"My family..." Wei Chi took a deep breath and wanted to speak.

"This wine is Fenglu wine. It tastes sweet in the beginning and strong in the aftertaste. Try it?" Xiangge Naji picked out a wine bottle from a table and poured half a glass.

"Oh?" Wei Chi took it and took a sip, it was really good!He took another sip and swallowed slowly: "This old cellar is well seasoned! You must know that this wine has one portion for brewing, one point for cellar, and one point for tune. What was added?"

Xianggnaji clapped his hands and smiled: "Sure enough, he is a wine drinker! But this flower is tacky, um... dense rose?"

Wei Chi sniffed it carefully: "Rose..."

"Yes! It's roses." Xianggnaji chuckled.

"With the addition of roses, the color of the wine is so translucent and crystal clear..." Wei Chi looked at the color of the wine carefully from the window: "I don't know how it is made."

"Hee hee, speaking of it, this wine is very expensive. You have to take some dried roses and bury it in the cellar, um... it needs to be changed every month, and it takes three months." Xianggnaji gestured—— The wine is put in the jar, and the dried roses are wrapped in silk and satin to block the mouth of the jar, and then sealed with mud, it will take three months, three months.

Well, not bad, Wei Chi savored it carefully, but unfortunately the aftertaste is too pungent, and it doesn't match the softness of the first taste... It doesn't match, right!Wei Chi remembered after being stabbed by the aftertaste: "My family ordered it for me..."

"Taste this!" Xianggnaji chose a purple silver bottle with a round belly, poured half a cup and handed it to Wei Chi.

This wine was a bit strange, it tasted sour and unbearably sour, Wei Chi squinted his eyes when he drank it, and after taking a sip, he felt numb at the root of his tongue and tightness in his throat.Wei Chi endured the strange taste and took another sip... Strange to say, in the second sip, there was a hint of sweetness from the numb tongue and tight throat, and it became stronger and stronger. Even the tip of the tongue feels sweet.

"Curiosity!" Wei Chi praised the slightly yellowed glass while shaking it.

"This is goat's milk wine." Seeing Wei Chi's expression changing rapidly, Xiangnaji secretly covered his mouth and laughed at him.

"How can there be such goat's milk wine!" Wei Chi knew goat's milk wine, it was slightly sour, but it didn't taste like this.

"It's been in the cellar for three years!"

I see!It's just that the goat's milk wine is very easy to spoil. I don't know how to cellar it for so long, three years!Even if you order a daughter-in-law, you can go through the door... Wait!Wei Chi put down his wine glass: "Three years ago, my family..."

"When I was young, I thought, when I grow up, I want to go on the road with good wine and live freely, instead of living the life that every woman lives." Xianggnaji poured himself half a glass, took a sip, and watched Looking at the fiery setting sun outside the window, he sighed, "Is it ridiculous?"

Are my thoughts ridiculous?

'When I grow up, I don't want to live the life that every woman will live. I want to go out from that corner of the sky, not to travel north and south, I just want to be free!Live freely! '

This sentence seems familiar. In the small corner of the small academy, there was a little girl carrying books hard, and the old man glanced at her lightly, "Why do women marry?"Why do men marry wives?That's because those who survive are those who follow the ancestral system, and those who like to be independent don't live long!Little girl, your idea is too ridiculous. '

'Ridiculous ass! 'The little girl under the age of eight uttered foul words, and the old man was so angry that he knocked his head on the window sill.' You can't teach a child!The old man is so angry! '

Bottles of wine, salt, sauce and vinegar, rice noodles, oil and water tanks, working around a palm-sized place for a lifetime is too disappointing for life!You are as rich as you, do you think so?

"With good wine and freedom, what are you going to do?" Wei Chi tilted his head, looking at this high-spirited little girl.

"Make friends," Xiangganaji said with a flash of longing in his eyes, and she had longed for the happy life of a knight-errant.When she was young, living with her teacher and elder brother to practice by the lake gave her a childhood different from other aristocratic girls. The flying eagle and galloping horses made her unforgettable.Master, the number one boxer in Monan!Not only princes and nobles, but also celebrities and heroes from all over the world interacted with him. Their conversation and friendship made the little girl envious.

It's a pity that I finally returned to the capital, and returned to this somewhat suffocating and extremely gorgeous courtyard!Participating in all kinds of extravagant banquets day and night, speaking beautiful but hypocritical words, and being with a group of women who only care about the beauty of their clothes all day long.If I feel a little dissatisfied, my parents will blame me, as if I am such an uneducated girl.This year, he started making arrangements for his own marriage again. If it wasn't for the tense war, he might have been tied up in his in-law's house long ago!

"Well," Wei Chi smiled faintly: "It's a good idea, should I wish you a good journey?"

Xianggnaji gave Wei Chi a contemptuous look, and thought, you are so awkward, how can I get along with the wind?After turning around for a while, he thought again, Wei Chi looks quite noble, if he really didn't care about his fame, would he stay in Monan?

"Do you think Monan is good?" Xianggnaji pointed to Wei Chi's heart.

Wei Chi smiled calmly: "I can't say whether it is good or not, it depends on where it is compared with. If it is compared to the capital of Daqi, it is still not comparable. It is infinitely better than the small county where I was born."

"No, no, no," Xianggnaji desperately waved his hands, "Do you like it or not!"

Wei Chi thought for a while: "This is even more difficult to say, you know, I am very embarrassed..."

It was embarrassing, it came in with guns and cannons.The people and palaces of this city have witnessed this catastrophe, while the ruler of your country is still under house arrest under our hands.

Xiangganaji was speechless for a moment.

"Why don't you hate me?" Wei Chi was suddenly curious, why would a woman from the enemy country, a person who should have a deep hatred with him, fall in love with her?

"...Why do I hate you?" Xianggnaji shook the wine in his hand: "At this moment, the two countries are at war, and at that moment, the two countries are on good terms. At this moment, at that moment, what does it have to do with you and me?"

What are you doing with me?

Wei Chi secretly sighed, really free and easy.Thinking of the unconcealable hostility that Qiqige burst out sometimes, I feel a little bit chilly.She hates herself, because her side tramples on her country and poisons her people.Can't let go, can't let go.But in all honesty, what does all this have to do with our friendship?

Then why do you love me?Wei Chi wanted to ask, but couldn't open his mouth, so he had to follow the wine bottles on the wine table to taste bottle by bottle.

Xiangganaji is the most noisy person, and he can mutter for a long time to flowers and plants.But today I can't speak, half of it is a little reserved, and half of it is really not smooth in Chinese.Seeing that Wei Chi didn't talk much, he didn't know what to say, so he sipped the wine one by one, and told Wei Chi the names of the wines that could be explained one by one.

Feeling Xiangganaji's kindness, Wei Chi couldn't bear to shirk, and after hearing her name, he picked up bottles one by one to taste.

As the sun set, the atmosphere in the tavern became lively. The large and small wine tables in the hall gradually filled up with guests. Plates of side dishes were brought out, and some slightly drunk guests had already started singing on the huqin. opened.

The young man serving the wine secretly bumped his companion's waist: "Look, isn't that the Han Chinese you just told me about?"

The one who got bumped was the guy who was selling wine downstairs just now: "Oh! It turns out that the noble young master who came early this morning invited him!"

"That's not it! It's really generous. I spent five taels of gold to cover the elegant seat for a day, and there's an extra drink!"

The two secretly looked over there, and saw that the two young masters had little conversation, they were just drinking and did not ask for food.

"What do you say they are here for?"

"This... I really can't guess..."

"Crap! Kuha! What are you two knocking your teeth here?" The manager happened to pass by, saw the two young men talking and laughing with the utensils in their hands, and scolded them.The two boys were taken aback and hurried away.

Kuha brought a water basin of warm wine to send to the inner room. When passing by the private room, he couldn't help being curious, so he secretly looked at the two nobles, wanting to see which family's young master was born so well. .Fortunately, the elegant room is different from the Central Plains in that it does not have airtight walls, but it is built a little two feet higher than the scattered seats in the hall, and there is a low fence around the seats.While pretending to be on his way, Haku stretched his neck——Hey!What a stunning boy!Needless to say, the young master of Monan is full of nobility and has extremely pretty features.In addition to being neatly born, the Han son also has a kind of charm in it. Others feel refreshed when they watch him taste wine.

Kuha looked at his eyes, but he didn't care about his feet. He accidentally kicked the top of the mat folds and staggered a step.It was a coincidence, this step didn't hinder anything, but Kuha stepped sideways in order to stabilize his foot, and this foot happened to step on a guest's foot.Kuha was shocked, and hurriedly drew back his feet, but he couldn't care less about his feet than his hands, a little splash of a basin of boiling water happened to splash on the cuff of the guest.

"Where did the servant come from!" The guest came to meet the guests today, and after sweeping his face in front of the crowd, he flew into a rage.

Haku backed away in fright. Seeing that the man was aggressive, he quickly put down the water basin in his hand, knelt down on the ground, and pleaded guilty.

"Bastard slave! It's really disgusting!" The guest was getting angry, and took Haku's water basin, covering his head with his pocket.It's a pity that the water was very hot, Haku didn't have time to dodge, and was splashed straight on!Uncomfortably hot, but did not dare to say anything, a sense of grievance in my heart made tears well up.

Seeing the foolish and funny look of that young man, everyone in the room laughed, even the person in charge laughed, and took a towel to serve the guest: "Don't be angry, my lord, this little beard can't get on the table. , beat him to dirty the hands of the nobleman."

"Humph!"

Everyone was laughing, and there was a clap and a cold snort.The young man in the elegant seat stood up coldly.

"The wine slave just bumped into you, and you're going to go crazy?" Xianggnaji asked coldly, clasping his hands.

"What's your business?" The tall guest pushed away the bartender who was in charge.

"You spoiled my young master's drinking pleasure!" Xianggnaji was not afraid at all: "What? I'll let you beat someone up?" After finishing speaking, he took the wine on the table and splashed the man's face.

The guest flew into a rage!Regardless of the wine juice all over his body, he was jumping around to show Xiangnaji a good look.

Kuha was grateful when he heard that the good-looking young man was apologetic for him.But how could that young master be the opponent of this reckless man?Kuha was determined, and hugged the guest's ankle: "Your honored guest! Is it a slave? I disturbed the nobleman's drinking, and the nobleman calmed down..."

Before Kuha finished speaking, the burly man raised his leg and kicked Kuha's front teeth. His mouth was filled with blood and he was in excruciating pain.The guests in the room were not funny anymore when they saw the two getting angry, they stood up one after another to see who was so rampant.

"Isn't that the third master of Ji Ya's family?" Someone recognized the strong man.

"That little son has suffered, but he doesn't know how noble this family is!"

In the past two generations, people have entered the capital to be officials, and they are in charge of some horse business. This person's cousin worked as a female official in the princess's coat and hat, and often went in and out of the palace.

It's quite expensive, but it's a pity... Who is Xiangganaji the head of the Xishifengya family?Want to beat her up?Unless you are Monan King.

Seeing that the braided man with the chin had murderous intent, Wei Chi quickly stood up to protect Xianggnaji, and secretly scolded this little girl for her hot temper—a good man doesn't suffer from immediate losses!So what if you are the Lord Shang?Doesn't it hurt just as much when you get punched?

Wei Chi couldn't speak Monan dialect, so he had to worry.

'Third Lord' has been extravagant for two generations!Where can two green-haired boys step on their noses and faces?Kicked off the little boy on his feet, lifted the bartender on his arm with a palm, and hit him with his hands!

It's not easy for Wei Chi to hide, so he braced his hand to block, thinking while blocking--little girl, you little trouble!Did I owe you something in my previous life? !

Wei Chi closed his eyes and waited for the punch to come firmly.After waiting for a moment, the fist didn't come over, and he stretched his hand to squeeze behind him...? ... What about the little scourge?Open your eyes quickly!At some point, Xianggnaji walked around and grabbed the strong man's wrist with one hand.

"Oh! What a powerful boxing technique!" Xianggnaji laughed, twisted the strong man's arm on his shoulder with his backhand, turned back and took a horse step, and lifted the strong man off the ground. With one step back, the strong man felt a pain in his wrist, and before he could see the opponent's way, he flew out and smashed on the wine table behind him!

The guests in the hotel were astonished. They were amazed that this young boy was able to subdue such a powerful enemy with so much effort!Shocked by the courage of this little boy, he dared to openly provoke the young master of Ji Ya's family!

The fall was unbearable, and the people in the four seats gathered together, and the guests at the banquet banquet for the strong man were even more angrily seeking justice.Although Wei Chi was pleasantly surprised by Xianggnaji's kung fu, he also knew that one punch is hard to beat with four legs, so he stepped forward to protect Xianggnaji behind him.Although he can't speak Monan dialect, Wei Chi also has calculations in his heart. When is this?Can the people of Qi be beaten casually?

Seeing the stern expression of the Han gentleman, some people began to discuss secretly, and those who were timid pulled the sleeves of the troublemaker, for fear of causing a catastrophe.

Wei Chi is pretending to be a paper tiger here, but it is a paper tiger after all. Although his face is cold, his paper heart has been broken into a thousand pieces long ago, and the epitaph has been written.

"Don't be rude!" When the sword was on the verge of breaking out, a guest came in through the wall.

Isn't that the patriarch of the Yanbuna family?Looking at that appearance, he didn't seem to be an enemy of himself. The paper tiger's face was sullen, but his heart felt the bubbling warmth from the fur dealer.

The patriarch of the Yan Buna family came to the family banquet. Hearing the noise outside, he couldn't help but look at it, but it was amazing!Isn't that person Mr. Wei?Quickly pulled the house slave over to make a rescue.The strong men at this table are mostly dandies, and many people recognize this master, counting the level by pinching their fingers, they really dare not make mistakes.

But there is also a bold one: "What's so great about the people of Qi! If you act wildly on the master's chassis, the master will beat you!"

As soon as these words were uttered, the crowd became a little more angry, and they were afraid that those Qi people would fail?

What kind of man is the patriarch old man? He looked at the man coldly and said: "Both sides in the fight are from Monan, how can the Qi people say wild things?"

This is the truth, Wei Chi didn't even squeak from the beginning to the end, not to mention his hands.

"You young masters, enjoy the bar! Don't spoil everyone's interest!" The old man has been running to Qi country all year round, and has been hard-pressed for more than ten years. He is best at Tai Chi Kung Fu, and he knows how to use both soft and hard.These dandies cannot be persuaded, they can only be stopped by scaring them.Can everyone sitting here bear the crime of disturbing the family banquet at Qi Bu Na's family?

Seeing that the group of young people lost their posture, Wei Chi quickly bowed his hands.It is said that if you don't hit a smiling person with your fist, the other party has already saluted, so if you still pester him, wouldn't you lose your reputation as a hero?What's more, the Qi people really didn't make a move... The shop owner came up and helped the 'Third Master' to apply the medicine, and the 'Third Master' followed him downstairs, fearing the face of Qi Bu Na's family.Seeing that the victim had left, the whole room lost interest in watching, and went back to drink and eat meat.

"Master Wei, please!" The patriarch stepped forward.

Wei Chi thanked him sincerely, knowing that it was not time to thank him, he tightly held Xiangnaji's hand, and followed the old patriarch downstairs.The old patriarch sent the two of them out of the courtyard gate, and waved his hands together: "Go, both of you."

"It's troublesome!" Wei Chi heaved a sigh of relief: "Write it later!"

After turning a few streets, Xiangganaji writhed restlessly.

"Ah! Are you still being honest?" Wei Chi couldn't help but let go.

"It's you!" Xiangganaji pointed in all directions, "Where are you going?"

Only then did Wei Chi pay attention, just now he just went to a place where there are few people, who knows where this is?

Xianggnaji, who is not afraid of the sky and the earth, raised his hand and pointed: "Go there!"

Seeing her unrepentant appearance, Wei Chi was annoyed and amused: "You Shanglord! Someday you will be beaten until your nose is blue and your face is swollen!"

"No! I'm amazing!" Xianggnaji waved his hands seriously.

"Come on! There were so many people just now, no matter how powerful you are, you will be beaten down."

"I'm not afraid of half more!" Xianggnaji strode ahead.

I heard that the master of this Xiangganaji is a famous boxer in Monan, but!After all, she is just a little girl, not Nezha!See how strong her tiny arms are?Not to mention being so much shorter than yourself, don't be bragging.In fact, Wei Chi was also very naughty in his bones. The more he thought about it, the more he found it unbelievable. Out of curiosity, he decided to give it a try—while Xianggenaji was not paying attention, he punched her in the back!

Seeing that he was about to succeed, Wei Chi was about to be proud when Xiangnaji turned around slowly, as if he knew his plan, and slapped Wei Chi's fist away with a backhand.Unwilling to be reconciled, Wei Chi threw his left fist at Xianggnaji's face!Xiangganaji gave way slightly and threw his arms, but Wei Chi failed again.Unyielding, Wei Chi swung his right fist that was slapped away, and even used his parallel feet.

Seeing that Wei Chi was punching left and right, he used his feet endlessly, so he decided not to be wordy and win with one move.

"Oh!" Wei Chi was pushed to the ground, losing all face.

"How can this be! I've been practicing martial arts for half a year, why can't I beat anyone!" Wei Chi got up, patting the ashes on his body, they are all women!How come it's so far away?

"Huh? Half a year?" Xianggnaji asked.

That's right, it's only been half a year, Wei Chi nodded, thinking, maybe it's because the heat isn't enough?

"Half a year, why is it still like this?" Xiangge Naji was puzzled.

Hearing this, Wei Chi felt like hitting the wall. If he couldn't beat her, he would definitely be gritted his teeth and wanted to do it now.

Xiangganaji didn't know how to read his face, so he thought about it for a moment: "You have a problem!"

"..." Wei Chi completely lost the ability to argue, at this moment he just wanted to go back to take a shower and sleep.

"Hey!" Xiangganaji clapped his hands suddenly: "I'll teach you! I'll teach you!"

"Sorry, it's getting dark, Lord Shang, let's go back..." Wei Chi turned around sadly, dragging his tired body and shattered self-esteem.

"No! No!" Xianggnaji jumped up and said, "The day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, I will sneak out in the afternoon and wait for you outside the east gate!"

I don't care about you!Wei Chi muttered and left without looking back, thinking, even if I am a man, I absolutely cannot have this kind of daughter-in-law!Who... who can bear it!

The author has something to say: It turns out that the trash girl is a strong attack! ! ! ! !
