Zhang Mo understood, he hesitated, and immediately said: "Subordinates understand! Subordinates will go to Liu Biao's house to wait for him tonight!"

Chen Hong nodded and said, "I don't want him to see the sunrise tomorrow!"

Zhang Mo took his orders and stepped back. As soon as he closed the door, he heard the sound of broken porcelain inside. A trace of disappointment flashed across Zhang Mo's face, and he turned and walked away.

"Come on! Two adults, this Xihucuyu method is my boss personally went to the outer building of the West Lake Building to learn from the experience. It is the signature dish of the store. Please two adults to taste it, eat and drink well!" The shop Xiaoer supported it. A large wooden plate quickly greeted him, swiftly placed the dishes on the table, and wisely pointed the fish mouth to Fang Xianfu, the fish eyes were covered with ginger slices.

After the shop's little Er had prepared the dishes, he poured another glass of wine for Lu Bing and Fang Xianfu, bowed and walked out of the house holding the tray, and then heard the sound of "spinning" going downstairs.

Lu Bing and Fang Xianfu smiled at each other, and Lu Bing said, "This young man is really quick."

Fang Xianfu nodded and said, "Indeed, this restaurant is relatively close to the palace, and it is mostly eaten by dignitaries, so it is better than other restaurants in all aspects."

Lu Bing heard the implication, just smiled and did not answer.

When Fang Xianfu said this, he was actually saying that whoever is closer to the emperor will obviously get the moon first, and it is naturally better. But, because of this, at the same time being forced to be better than others.

Seeing Lu Bing not answering, Fang Xianfu thought about it, and then changed the subject, "Master Lu has heard of the building outside the West Lake?"

"But the outside building of the'Qingshan outside building outside the mountain"? Asked Lu Bing

"Exactly." Fang Xianfu nodded, and chanted casually: "Outside the mountain, outside the Qingshan Tower, when will the West Lake singing and dancing be off; the warm breeze drunk the tourists and turned Hangzhou into Bianzhou."

Fang Xianfu finished chanting and asked Lu Bing, "Master Lu knows the meaning of the poem?"

Lu Bing felt a little impatient. Does this Fang Xianfu really think that Wufu will not study

Lu Bing smiled slightly and said: "Some understand that in the Southern Song Dynasty, the style of writing was prosperous, but it was also very degenerate. He was forced to the south of the Yangtze River by the Jinren, but he didn't want to counterattack, just indulged in poetry and poetry. Poet Lin Sheng then made this "Ti Lin'an Mansion" to satirize the imperial court and the literati who did not act at that time. From this point of view, when the literati were at the head of the country, if they were not righteous, they would be the most miserable."

Fang Xianfu felt sullen after hearing this, but when he came to see Lu Bing this time, he was indeed a little guilty, and he was speechless to refute.

Lu Bing didn't wait for him to refute, but first said: "Then I don't know Master Fang... Do you know the original name and origin of this Xihucuyu?"

Fang Xianfu was taken aback. He was a sage. He was very familiar with the four books and five classics, but he rarely read some miscellaneous books. He never studied the original name of Xihucuyu. Of course, he did not know the origin of Xihucuyu.

Lu Bing smiled slightly and preached: ""Xihucuyu" is also called "Uncle Chuanzhen". It was in the Southern Song Dynasty, there were two brothers surnamed Song, full of articles, very knowledgeable, but he did not want to be an official and lived in seclusion. In the West Lake, he makes a living by fishing. There is a local villain, Daguan Zhao. During a tour of the lake, he met a woman with a veil by the lake. Seeing her beautiful appearance, she wanted to take possession of it. Send someone to inquire, and it turns out that this woman is Brother Song's wife used conspiracy to kill Brother Song. Song's uncle and sister-in-law were very angry, and the two went to the government to file a lawsuit together, seeking to show righteousness and make the villain punished. How did they know that the government at the time was the same nostril as the evil forces. Out of anger, not only did they fail to accept their complaints, but instead kicked them out of the government."

While talking, Lu Bing picked up the wine glass, sipped his mouth, and continued: "After returning home, Sister Song asked Brother Song to pack up and flee, lest the villains follow him to get revenge. Before leaving, his sister-in-law burned a bowl of fish. , Add sugar and vinegar, the cooking method is peculiar. Song asked his sister-in-law: "How is the fish cooked like this today?" The sister-in-law said: "The fish is sweet and sour. I want you to go out this time. Don't forget that your brother is How to die, your life is sweet, don't forget the bitterness of the people being bullied, and don't forget the bitterness of your sister-in-law's bitterness.' My brother was very moved when he heard that, and after eating fish, he left with his sister-in-law in mind.

Later, Brother Song was determined to gain fame while studying abroad, and returned to Hangzhou to avenge the murder of his brother and punished the villain. But at this time, Song's wife had already left without her whereabouts and could not be found.

Once, Brother Song went out to a banquet, and ate a dish during the banquet. The taste was exactly the same as that of his sister-in-law when he left home. He quickly asked who made it, only to realize that it was his sister-in-law's masterpiece. It turned out that after he left, his sister-in-law hid in the official house and worked as a cook in order to avoid being entangled by villains. Brother Song was very happy to find his sister-in-law, so he resigned from office, took the sister-in-law back home, and started fishing for a living as a fisherman again. And his sister-in-law opened a small shop called Song Sao Yugeng. "

Fang Xianfu thought that Lu Bing had finished speaking. He was thinking and was about to speak, but Lu Bing continued to preach: "On one occasion, the poet Lin Sheng had nowhere to appeal because his brother was wronged. He was depressed and went to the West Lake. I wanted to find a short sight, and happened to pass by Song Sao's restaurant. She was attracted by the fragrance of Song Sao's fish soup, but she was shy in her pocket and didn't want to die starving.

It happened that Song's wife met him and saw him wandering outside the store, with a sad face and a clear heart, so she invited him in and gave him a bowl of fish soup.

Lin Sheng ate it very deliciously, so he started talking with Sister Song and asked about the origin of the food. Sister Song had the heart to persuade him, so she told Lin Sheng about the experience and persuaded Lin Sheng not to give up hope.

Lin Sheng listened and felt the same. Although still resentful in his heart, he regained hope and decided to be his elder brother and try harder to think again.

Before leaving, Lin Sheng left a poem of "Outside the mountain, Qingshanlou and Wailou".

Sister Song heard this and felt that Louwailou's name was good, so she left the song "Ti Lin'an Di" on the wall and changed the name of the store to Louwailou.

Later, when someone ate this dish, the poem became prosperous, and he wrote a poem on the wall of the restaurant: "Get drunk with skirts and sandals, go upstairs in the shadow of the green sun; how many lake boats in front of the door, half return from the three pools and reflect on the moon. Why should you return? Looking for Zhang Han's perch, the fishy flavor speaks of the West Lake; the king has this blending hand, and I know Song Sao Wu back then." The last sentence of the poem refers to the legend of "West Lake Cuyu".

After that, the outer building was closed several times due to wars and other reasons, but it has never been forgotten. Someone will always rebuild the outer building and engrave "Ti Lin'an Mansion" on the wall. "

After Lu Bing finished telling the story in one breath, he drank the glass in his hand.

Fang Xianfu was fascinated. Seeing Lu Bing finished speaking, he couldn't help sighing: "I didn't expect that there is such an allusion in a building outside the building and a custard fish in the West Lake... Master Lu is really knowledgeable!"

After listening to Fang Xianfu's words, Lu Bing smiled slightly, put down the wine glass, poured himself a glass, and said, "Master Fang knows why the subordinates want to tell this story?"
