"The bloody coat case?"
Out of curiosity, Lid asked a question. But Wantang looked up at the moon and stars that had already appeared, and said to Lid with some embarrassment:
"The bloody clothes case is very complicated to talk about. If you are free tomorrow, young master, you can go to Lingxia River to find me, and then I will tell you in detail. It's too late today, and I have to go back, otherwise my younger siblings will have to worry about it again." gone."
Li De didn't stop him, and watched Wan Tang leave.
To be honest, Lied himself has no interest in such a case that sounds a bit confusing. The purpose of his trip was to meet Xiao Hei, the prince of Southern Chu, and Xiao Bai, the prince of West Qin. Xiao Hei sent him an invitation letter, inviting him to come over and have a good chat about the future development of the organization [Broken Sky].
This organization was established in the first place to have enough strength to resist foreign invasion when necessary. Now that Qingyun and Garberd have passed away one after another, Xiaoheixiaobai probably also has a sense of urgency. Therefore, after Lide won Yunyang, they immediately sent congratulations to Lide, and invited Lide to come to Nanchu to have a talk, and Lide came this time mainly to see the situation in Nanchu and confirm the situation. Whether Xiao Hei Xiao Bai is reliable or not.
The bloody coat case seemed to be very topical at this time, Lide could hear the discussion at the neighboring table when he went downstairs to eat.
There were still a few days before the appointment with Xiaoheixiaobai, and Lide, who had nothing to do, listened casually with his head on his head. In fact, he can't help it, the old man at the next table drank a little too much, he talked with his tongue out, and his voice was so loud that he could probably hear it clearly on the second floor:
"The crumpled robes and bloody clothes can't be faked... General Jiang Yuesheng has been wronged so much. Who dares to suppress such a thing, who has the ability to withstand such a thing? Just wait and see, it won't take long, this matter will have to spread to the public. Go to the ears of the lords of Nanchu and spread it to various places in Nanchu!"
The bold brother slapped the wooden wine glass on the table and said:
"This time, I have to kill someone's head!"
The person sitting opposite him obviously drank too much, and replied in a daze:
"Okay, okay... You see, apart from making a lot of noise, has anyone ever been in charge of it for so long? Jiang Yuesheng has been discharged from the army for 20 years. Who remembers his bravery in the bloody battle with his shabby robe back then? Deeds? It’s been a long time since the newcomers replaced the old ones... This matter can’t cause trouble, and it’s useless whoever comes... "
Although Brother Haofang drank a lot of wine, he became even more angry after hearing this. He slapped the table with his thick palm and pulled the arm of the confused brother opposite, saying:
"Who doesn't remember? Who doesn't remember! Nobody cares about this, we're going to make trouble at the lord's mansion today! I don't see who dares to ignore it!"
The confused old man lazily said:
"No... I'm not going... Those who offend others, whoever wants to do it...Jiang Yuesheng, who still remembers Jiang Yuesheng? You, do you remember?"
The confused brother pointed at Li De, and the bold brother immediately cast his gaze over.
Lid shook his head calmly.
Brother Haofang let go of his hand and shouted loudly:
"You don't know Jiang Yuesheng? Don't you know Jiang Yuesheng who defeated 200,000 enemies in Nanchu and conquered 30 cities?!"
Lide shook his head. Listening to their speech before, the person concerned has been discharged from the army for 20 years, and Lide was not born 20 years ago.
Brother Haofang gasped heavily for a long time, then suddenly sat down on the chair and started crying non-stop:
"That broken robe and bloody clothes can't be fake..."
This is the sentence he repeated the most when he was drunk.
Lide finished his food and drink, turned around and went upstairs to his room. This is the bad thing about Nanchu. Everyone discusses things too openly. There are completely different groups of people sitting at each table in the hall. Everyone is talking about completely different things and expressing completely different opinions. It felt a little noisy, so Lide chose to go back to his room early to enjoy the night view.
Wan Tang did not deceive Li De, the river water at night is really interesting. There are all kinds of cruise ships moored on the calm water. Of course, there are some industries that are not known to outsiders, but Lide really wants to know more about them. Unfortunately, today's traffic is exhausted, and I really can't get the energy to appreciate them. Looking at the charm of the girls in Nanchu, I can only say that next time will be sure.
After a good night's sleep, Lide got up, and when he went downstairs to have breakfast, he found that the two brothers he saw yesterday were no longer there. While settling Lide's breakfast bill, the shopkeeper said in shock:
"Hey... thanks to your sneaking out early last night, if you were caught by those two, you might be dragged to drink again. The bloody coat case... There have been more and more people discussing it recently, so you don't look very good Curious."
Lide took the number plate from the shopkeeper and asked:
"We've been talking about this recently? When did it happen?"
The shopkeeper shook his head and said:
"I don't know, this topic is like a gust of wind, and it suddenly blows up. You ask me, and I want to ask others! Is it strange that you say a small thing, everyone has a different mouth Yes. Some people say that Jiang Yuesheng was unjustly imprisoned, while others say that he deserved what he deserved. Everyone burst into tears when talking about Xingtou. One side said that this was a huge injustice, and the other said that Jiang Yuesheng’s fish and meat village and even the people were in dire straits. All kinds of remarks were like the wind. It’s all over the place, and I don’t know which one is fake and which one is true.”
Lied nodded thoughtfully, then yawned, and took the number plate to the table to wait for breakfast.
On Nanchu's side, the dawn was very early, and the singing of the fisherman's girl on the lake could be heard very early. The libretto is in the dialect of Nanchu, and Li De can't understand it, but the singing is soft and pleasant, which shows that the basic skills of the singer are very solid. Lide quite likes this kind of water town environment, but the weather here is really humid, and there are too many mosquitoes. After drinking two bowls of hot porridge, he was sweating all over again, and had to go to the bathhouse to take a shower take a bath.
After tidying up, Li De went to the riverside to look for Wan Tang again. It's not because of the bloody clothes case, but mainly because Wantang left too early yesterday and didn't have time to inquire about Nanchu's tertiary industry with her.
When she saw Wantang, she was happily chewing on half of the crispy lotus root. Her jet-black hair was wet with water and stuck to her face, reflecting the sparkling light in the sun. After recognizing Lide, she threw the leftover lotus root into the water, rowed over, looked Lide up and down, and praised:
"Look, let me just say, after the young master changed his clothes, he is much more handsome than before."
Lied patted his chest and replied:
"The main reason is that people are good-looking, and people give them the nickname Hanger. From men's clothes to women's clothes, I don't look bad when I wear them."
Wantang also laughed, picked up half a bag of lotus roots on the boat, and asked:
"Is the young master here to inquire about the bloody clothes case? Wait a minute, I'll be back after selling half a bag of lotus roots."
Lide waved his hand, turned out all the change left over from yesterday's shopping, handed it over, and said:
"That's just right, the fat and water don't flow into the fields of outsiders. It's my first time in Nanchu, and I want to taste the delicious food here."
