Tang's dining table

Chapter 525 How unlucky can one be?

People definitely don't get fat by eating one meal. It is caused by the continuous nourishment of hundreds or thousands of meals eaten before.

The Yunchu family gradually grew from being penniless to a well-established family in Chang'an City, and they finally became like this by eating profits one after another.

In the Tang Dynasty, what everyone strives for is not personal strength, but the heritage of the family. Therefore, in the Tang Dynasty, an era that was born out of sects, everyone is thinking about how to increase the strength of the family itself.

Those individuals who do not have a family hope to become the founder of a family named after him.

In this battle belonging to newcomers, Yun Chu was at the forefront.

Although Pei Xingjian and Xue Rengui worked very hard, even though their official positions were higher than Yun Chu's, in essence, they were far from where Yun Chu wanted to be.

Sometimes, the outcome of this kind of battle actually depends on metaphysics, just like how Yun Chu could buy back Liu Zhao, the son of the original Duke of Pingyuan County in the Tang Dynasty with just a little money.

Speaking of which, Fei Jiu's past was really miserable.

His father, Liu Lan, the governor of Xiazhou, liked to socialize with strangers. One day, Xu Xuan, a member of Changshe who knew how to read prophecies, got a piece of prophecy from somewhere. After identifying it, he said to Liu Lan: There are elderly people in the world. , everyone said that General Liu would become the master of the world.

Liu Lan had been fighting with Emperor Taizong for many years, so she couldn't believe such a thing, so she laughed it off.

However, when Fei Jiu was in his twenties, arrogant and in his prime, he happily said to his father Liu Lan after hearing this: The prophecy said that the emperor will be born in Haibei, and our family will live there. In the North Sea.

This was originally a joke between father and son, but it happened to be overheard by his friend You Wenzhi from Huxian County.

Three months later, Wei You Wenzhi of Huxian County was found guilty of corruption and murder and was sentenced to Qiu Jue.

In order to save himself from death, You Wenzhi tried his best to make false accusations, and finally confessed the laughing conversation between Xiazhou Governor Liu Lan and his son.

After poor Liu Lan heard about this incident, she ran away from her son, dismissed her family, and killed herself and her old wife.

Who knew that the person who came to investigate his family's case was Qiu Xinggong, the general of the Youxiao Guard. In order to express his loyalty to the emperor, Qiu Xinggong boiled and ate Liu Lan's heart and liver.

Fei Jiu had no choice but to hide here and there. However, no matter how he hid, his friends would always tell him where he was hiding. As a result, the money in the hands of people around Fei Jiu gradually disappeared.

Fei Jiu, who was poor and sick, planned to visit his wife who had suffered such a disaster just half a month after marrying her before he died.

But after being humiliated by the Cui clan, they reported him. Fortunately, his wife Cui sent a maid to warn him in advance and gave him all the jewelry, hoping that he would run away. Don't believe anyone and persist. Stay alive.

As a result, Fei Jiu continued his life of escape. The process of escape was very painful. Fei Jiu persisted in finding an old friend, hoping to get protection from his old friend, but he was sold again.

Fortunately, this time he was smart and deliberately reported the wrong address to his friends. As a result, when he saw that the government officials accurately found the address he reported to his friends, he understood the warning his wife Cui gave him.

In order to fulfill his wife's request to live, Fei Jiu, who was extremely ashamed, put his face into the oil pan, sprinkled water into the oil pan, and fried his face with the splashing oil.

As a result, this explosion made me addicted. When I thought that my father's heart and liver had been eaten by Qiu Xinggong because of my nonsense, I felt extremely regretful and immediately fried my face again.

When he thought that he had failed his wife, he was so ashamed that he put his face into the oil pan again and fried it again.

In the end, it was so explosive that not only did others not recognize him, but even he himself could not recognize himself.

He originally wanted to sell the jewelry his wife left him, buy a piece of land near his parents' graves, build two houses, and live out his life like this.

As a result, because he was too ugly, he was deceived by the landlord and a middleman. Not only did they take away his money, but they also stripped him naked, put him in a ragged linen garment, and sent him to Xiudefang as a slave. Sell ​​for money.

He wanted to die several times, but he was rescued each time by slave traders, who beat him every time he was rescued.

Just when he was heartbroken, he suddenly heard from the slave trader that Mrs. Cui was coming to buy slaves for the housekeeper tomorrow. Originally, she only bought slaves from the official family. Unfortunately, the slaves from the official family were not interested in them and came to see his slaves. Slaves, all slaves should bring out their best spirit and let Mrs. Cui choose.

Fei Jiu, who was originally disheartened, perked up after hearing these three words from Mrs. Cui, hoping to be favored by Mrs. Cui and sell himself into the Cui family.

He has nothing more to ask for in this world, he just wants to sell himself into the Cui family, and secretly take a look at the only wife in the world who still treats him as a human being. It is best to become his wife's slave, so that he can stay with her for the rest of his life. By my side, seeing her living well makes me satisfied.

For this reason, he knelt down and worshiped in the cold wind all night, just asking God to allow him to complete this last obsession.

It is too easy for a young man from an aristocratic family who is full of knowledge and has good skills to stand out among a group of slaves.

In addition, Ms. Cui is a person who knows things. After seeing Fei Jiu's ability, she will naturally not judge people by their appearance. She is just a domestic slave. Why should she be so good-looking?

So, amidst Fei Jiu's inner wails, he became the Yun family's servant, and had no connection with the Cui family at all.

Listening to Fei Jiu's story, Yun Chu dropped the pig head meat on his chopsticks and didn't know anything about it.

After a while, he came back to his senses and said, "You are the most unlucky person I have ever seen or heard of."

Fei Jiu nodded and smiled: "So, people can't just think about heaven. When you think about heaven, you are actually closest to hell."

Yun Chu said again: "No wonder, when you came home, you were an ordinary person. Except for business hours, you would either drink or fall asleep every day. Fortunately, you did your errands well and spoke nicely. Now you are here in Yun Chu. You stayed, and since I disabled Qiu Shenji, you seem to have become useful.

After I killed Qiu Xinggong's family, you became very useful.

It turns out that I helped you avenge your blood feud. "

Fei Jiu nodded and said: "Man's opportunities are really unpredictable. I never thought that when I was at my most unlucky, I met you, and everything turned out to be a good thing that I had been thinking about."

Yun Chu raised his glass and touched the wine bowl with Fei Jiu and said, "You are already so unlucky, how much worse can you be if you are unlucky again?"

But aren’t everything we encounter good things? "

Fei Jiu took a sip of wine and said, "Since I entered the Yun family in the second year of Yonghui, I have killed six people."

Yun Chu drank the wine calmly and said, "This is the behavior of a man."

Fei Jiu looked at Yun Chu and said, "Don't you ask me who I killed?"

Yun Chu raised his head and thought for a moment and said, "The slave trader who sold you, the middleman who framed you, the landlord, and the last friend you trusted."

Fei Jiu blinked and looked at Yun Chu: "You know?"

Yun Chu shook his head and said: "I don't know, I just know your character and conduct. Not to mention the slave trader, the middleman, the landlord, these three people must die. As for why he was the last friend you trusted, it was because at that time , the trend of hunting you has almost passed. As long as you hide for another half a year, no one will ask about your whereabouts anymore.

I am the magistrate of Wannian County and have issued countless sea fishing documents. Of course I know how long the useful time period is.

As for why you didn't kill the people who betrayed you in the first place, to be honest, if you go to others to protect you, you are just causing trouble for them. "

Fei Jiu nodded and said, "That's indeed the truth."

Yun Chu winked and said, "Tell me, how did you get in touch with your wife?"

Fei Jiu took a sip of wine, used his chopsticks to beat the music on the concierge's square table, and sang softly: "The sky is covered with frost over the ten-mile flat lake... I am worried about the old age... I only look at the moon to protect each other... I only envy the mandarin ducks, not the immortals." …”

Fei Jiu sang this song with nostalgia in his bones. Yun Chu was stunned for a long time before whispering: "It sounds very familiar."

Fei Jiu said softly: "The Marquis accompanied his wife to visit my wife outside the city. When my mother came back from visiting the grave, the lady was in a bad mood, so the Marquis told her a story about a ghost falling in love with a human scholar. When it came to the emotional point, He also sang this deeply thought-provoking song.

After hearing the music, the lady playfully told the Marquis that it was nonsense.

However, as I was sitting on the shaft of the carriage driving the carriage, I burst into tears. The Marquis even laughed at me at that time. "

Yun Chu picked up the wine bowl, touched it with Fei Jiu and laughed, "What, do you feel something in your heart?"

Fei Jiu picked up the wine bowl and drained it in one gulp: "Actually, I am that ghost, and my wife should be the scholar named Ning Caichen.

I wrote this poem on a painting I painted, signed Jade Ghost. The painting was exactly the same as the boudoir painting I painted for my wife on our wedding night, in which she was sitting in front of the mirror combing her hair in a robe. appearance.

I gave the painting to Tongban and asked him to hang the painting in the most conspicuous place in the bookstore. It would not be sold unless someone from the Cui family came to buy it.

My wife loves to collect all kinds of novel books. Sooner or later, she will see this painting in Tongban, the largest bookstore in Chang'an City.

Two months ago, this painting was bought by my wife's maid. Then, every five days, my wife would come to Tongban's bookstore on time at that time. "

After hearing the poignant story told by Fei Jiu, Yun Chu looked up at Fei Jiu's miserable face, waved his hands and said, "Even the old gods can't restore your bumpy and pockmarked face. "

Fei Jiu took a sip of wine and said nonchalantly: "I already claim to be a ghost, but I am still willing to cause trouble for my wife.

I felt that being a teacher in the Yun family was the best destination for her, and I could watch her every day.

Mr. Hou, do you think this is beautiful? "
