Xiao Chiye stopped for half a month, and finally got Ji Lei's reply, and the school was done. He immediately went out of the city and took Chenyang to see the place.
It was a wasteland. It used to be a mass burial mound. Later, the place where the squatting table was moved was moved, and the place was empty.
"Although Fengshan is separated from the city." Chen Yang dismounted and looked at it and said, "But it's too far away."
"It will be an hour and a half before dawn." Xiao Chiye pointed his horsewhip to one end, "I have to ask the old slickers of the Ministry of Engineering to have a good meal, mix some materials, and fill up this place. Clean up a little and make do with it. It's useful. This place is too far away, and the eight major battalions cannot inspect it."
"Governor, give them the money." Chen Yang said, "I can't tell you what's uncomfortable."
"If you feel uncomfortable, you have to hold it in." Xiao Chiye said, "If someone crouches on our head to pee, we have to get this place out."
"Yes." Chen Yang didn't dare to say more.
Xiao Chiye stayed until dusk before he rode his horse back. As soon as he entered the city, he saw Li Jianheng's guard waiting for him at the door.
"What's the matter?" Xiao Chiye asked.
The guard saluted and said, "His Royal Highness has set up a table at the Huixiang Building on Donglong Street, waiting for the Governor to come and eat."
Xiao Chiye thought for a while, and rode his horse over.
Donglong Street is facing the Kailing River, and the lights are bright when the night falls. There are restaurants and flower shops on both sides, and all kinds of painting boats are parked on the river.
Xiao Chiye dismounted at Huixiang Building, and the shopkeeper followed him upstairs and took him upstairs in person. When he took a look at the curtain, he realized that this seat was not easy.
Everyone here has heard the name, and no matter how bad it is, he is the official young son of his father and brother. Next to the King of Chu was a white-faced little eunuch, who was very handsome. It should be the grandson that Pan Rugui looked for after Xiao Fuzi died.
"Ce'an is here!" Li Jianheng greeted, "Come and take a seat, I'll be waiting for you!"
Xiao Chiye picked an empty seat at random and said with a smile, "Such a big battle."
"Let me tell you. This is Eunuch Pan's grandson, Fengquan, Eunuch Feng!" Li Jianheng said to Fengquan, "This is my good brother, the second son of the Libei Xiao family, and the governor of the Imperial Army, Xiao Ce'an."
Feng Quan was more pleasing to the eye than Xiao Fuzi, he bowed to Xiao Chiye in a proper manner, and said, "I have long admired the name of the Governor."
On the opposite side, Xi Hongxuan had Erlang's legs crossed, occupying two seats by himself, and his fat face was so hot that he was sweating. He said, "Let's forget the hospitality, Your Highness, what other guests haven't arrived today? Let's have a seat when we arrive!"
Li Jianheng raised his eyebrows at Xiao Chiye and said, "I also invited a distinguished guest that you all want to see."
Xiao Chiye was bewildered by his unexpected gesture, and he just heard someone running behind the hall and lifted the curtain, and called out softly, "Your honored guest is here!"
The room was silent.
Xiao Chiye looked back and saw Shen Zechuan, who was wearing a brocade robe, stepping in. Seeing him, Shen Zechuan was obviously stunned. But this stunned appearance was too obvious, which made Xiao Chiye not believe it.
Everyone in the audience knew that they were at odds with each other, and the atmosphere was weird for a while, and they winked at each other watching a good show.
Li Jianheng said enthusiastically: "This is Shen Lanzhou, do you all recognize it? Lanzhou, take a seat. The shopkeeper, open the table!"
Xiao Chiye felt that Li Jianheng was fascinated, and he really invited people to this face.
Shen Zechuan chose to sit next to Xiao Chiye, and the two looked at each other as they sat down.
"This is Shen Lanzhou, who is famous for moving the capital recently." Xi Hongxuan glanced at Shen Zechuan, "It's really better to see once."
"I heard about this Lanzhou." Li Jianheng said, "His mother was also a top performer in Duanzhou back then, but Shen Wei had to reach half of the palace before she was a beautiful woman! Can he be born unattractive?"
The laughter was scattered throughout the banquet, and they all glanced at Shen Zechuan openly and secretly, and even Feng Quan sighed: "If this master casts a female child..."
"Then what about the flower girl?"
A group of playboys laughed tacitly, Xiao Chiye saw Shen Zechuan with his head half bowed, but could not see his anger.
The back of this man's neck was shrouded in the glazed twilight on the side, extending under the collar like a fat jade, as if rubbing it could taste the taste of ecstasy, and he was waiting helplessly to get started. His profile is smooth and beautiful, and the curvature of the bridge of his nose is really good. The corners of his eyes were the most terrible, and all the tickling things were placed in them, and he smiled faintly as he lifted up.
Xiao Chiye took another look.
Shen Zechuan was really smiling.
"Did you admit the wrong person?" Shen Zechuan's eyes slanted towards Xiao Chiye.
"I'm impressed." Xiao Chiye retracted his gaze.
Shen Zechuan raised his eyes, smiled obediently at everyone at the banquet, and said, "The middle person, everyone loves you."
Seeing him being so obedient, the one who was still holding it relaxed, and the words became more and more unbearable.
Xi Hongxuan said: "Isn't there a new trick emerging on the East Street recently? It's called 'playing the cup'. The fine wine was poured into a gold cup, placed in the beauty's shoes, and passed on for fun. Your Highness, I have played it. ?"
Li Jianheng laughed a few times and said, "There are good wines, but you can't find beautiful women."
Xi Hongxuan gestured lightly: "Isn't this seated right?"
Shen Zechuan and him have always been strangers to him, but now he just forced a smile and said, "How am I worthy of a 'beautiful'? If you really want to play, I invite you to have a good time in the building tonight."
Shen Zechuan has Hua Jiabao in the end, and others don't dare to say too much when they see it. Only Xi Hongxuan seemed to disagree with him, and the trouble became more and more ugly. Recently I heard that Xi Gu'an fell out of favor in front of the queen mother, and now it is assumed that Xi Hongxuan is using Shen Zechuan to vent his anger for his brother.
Shen Zechuan was about to open his mouth when he heard Xiao Chiye say, "How can someone else play tricks for His Royal Highness the King of Chu? It's 800 years old to eat shoes and play cups, and the prostitutes in the south don't like it. It's better to change the way of playing, Xi Ershao, take off your shoes, let's take it out and play as a boat."
There was laughter during the banquet, Xi Hongxuan was fat, and his feet were much larger than ordinary people, no one dared to mention it, and he didn't want to let Xiao Chiye take it out for fun.
"That's enough." Xi Hongxuan rolled along the slope, raised his feet boldly, and called, "Come on! Take off your shoes for you, Erye Xi!"
Li Jianheng was amused and scolded a few times.
Shen Zechuan also didn't expect Xiao Chiye to make a clearance. He and Xi Hongxuan were just playing a scene, and now they looked at Xiao Chiye again.
Xiao Chiye ignored him and ate something himself with chopsticks.
The little eunuch Feng Quan sat for a while, and after seeing that the dishes were almost ready, he said, "Playing is your business. I'll add another dish for you tonight."
He said and clapped his hands, and the guys who had prepared earlier hurried in to serve the dishes.
However, this "dish" is a little live donkey.
Fengquan said: "As a delicacy in the world, donkey meat is the best. Lord, have you ever eaten 'donkey fried'?"
The noise in the room subsided, and they all looked at the donkey in the middle.
Li Jianheng said, "What is 'donkey fried'?"
The guys poured the soil on the ground and quickly surrounded a small soil field. They drove the donkey onto the soil, buried its hooves in the soil, put the donkey's belly against the soil, and covered the donkey with a thick quilt.
"Masters." Feng Quan said modestly, "let's be optimistic."
The man half-squatted, took the scoop, scooped up the boiling soup that had just come out of the pot, and poured it all over. The man on the side pressed the quilt and wiped it from the head of the howling donkey, and the donkey's hair was poured down alive. But it wasn't over, the guy who poured the soup put the scoop and plucked out the meat from the fire donkey.
In the meat platter, the people by the stove grill it on the spot, and then pass it one by one to the full house after it is cooked.
The donkey growled more and more miserably, and even the people downstairs were alarmed.
Li Jianheng's face turned pale, looking at the donkey meat, he covered his mouth and nose and said, "Eunuch Feng, this dish is too hurt..."
"His Royal Highness may as well try it first. This donkey meat is gouged out with the boiling soup. It is the most delicious, but you must eat it." Fengquan meant something, "This 'donkey roast' has even more meaning. For example, if this person falls into the hands of others, he has to be left alone. The master asks him to kneel, and he has to kneel. The master makes him cry, and he has to cry. If the master stares at his flesh, he will also It has to be gouged out like this."
Shen Zechuan's situation is like this donkey. He looked at the blood-stained quilt, and the stench of the earth was dripping from the ground, as if he saw Ji Mu five years ago, and himself five years ago.
"It tastes good!" Xi Hongxuan ate a few slices, as if he didn't understand what he meant, but he just gasped.
Shen Zechuan's chopsticks never moved, and Xiao Chiye's didn't touch the meat.
Li Jianheng heard that something was wrong, and said nervously: "It really hurts Yin and virtue, withdraw it!"
"Wait a minute." Feng Quan finally looked at Shen Zechuan, "Mr. Shen, this dish was specially ordered by my foster father, why don't you eat it?"
Pan Rugui is his godfather, so Ji Lei is really his godfather! What is the origin of this kid, how could he win Pan Rugui's favor so quickly, beat Xiao Fuzi, and win Ji Lei's eyes.
Ji Lei couldn't kill Shen Zechuan, and now people fall under his hands and can't move. To come up with a way to humiliate Shen Zechuan tonight is to say that the festival between them will never end.
Shen Zechuan picked up the chopsticks.
"I… "
Before Shen Zechuan finished speaking, the chair next to him was suddenly pushed away. Xiao Chiye got up, picked up the plate with donkey meat, and threw it on the ground in the direction of Fengquan.
Li Jianheng got up quickly and said, "Ce, Ce'an..."
Xiao Chiye stared at Fengquan.
Who Fengquan wants to humiliate for Ji Lei, he doesn't care. But he, Xiao Chiye, is also a beast in prison today, no different from this donkey.
The slap also hit him in the face, causing him pain.
Fengquan looked at him puzzled and said, "Does it not suit the Governor's wishes?"
Xiao Chiye's wolf-blade hilt on his waist was pressed under his thumb. When he drew the knife, the crowd screamed, but when he saw his hand rise and fall, the donkey was already beheaded. The mourning stopped, blood seeped out of the ground, dripping red and bright on the ground, and the others didn't even dare to let out the air, and they didn't know what he was going to do.
With the dim light on his back, Xiao Chiye wiped the blade of the blade clean on the tablecloth, then turned around in a hurry and smiled at the people present: "—Everyone, go ahead."
Li Jianheng stared at his knife and said softly, "Ce'an, Ce'an, put it away, put it away."
Xiao Chiye put the knife into the sheath, glanced at Fengquan, raised his feet and brought a chair over, sat in the middle with a golden knife, and said, "It's baked together. I'll be here tonight watching Eunuch Feng eat."
Fengquan finally called someone to carry the sedan chair and walked in a hurry.
Li Jianheng drank some wine, and said to Xiao Chiye with snot and tears: "Ce'an, I really didn't think about it, who knew that this robber was not a thing? We are brothers, don't you? It ruined our friendship for this!"
Xiao Chiye twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "I know there is a difference between closeness and distance. Let's go first."
Li Jianheng tugged at his sleeve and said that Xiao Chiye directly asked Chenyang to put Li Jianheng in the sedan chair.
"Send the King of Chu back." Xiao Chiye said, "I'll go by myself."
Chen Yang looked at him with a calm expression, never talking nonsense, mounted his horse and followed the King of Chu's sedan chair.
Xiao Chiye stood under the lantern by himself, and after a while, he kicked over someone's potted plant.
The potted plant worth some silver rolled to the ground, knocked under the stairs, and was gently lifted up by a hand.
Standing on the stairs, Shen Zechuan said calmly, "Are you rich? You have to pay for it."
Xiao Chiye said in a cold voice, "What you have is money."
After speaking, he touched his waist, but it was empty.
Shen Zechuan waited for a while, then turned around and said to the shopkeeper, "Remember this grandfather's account, he has more money."
