The poetry order ended here. Zuo Qing sent someone to bring in the barbecue rack, and asked Ah Yu to serve sliced venison and put it on the plate. After Xilou stretched his muscles, he stood up and said: "It's time for me to show off my talents!"
Su Yan had never seen barbecue before, so he asked himself to be an assistant and learned Xilou's techniques to help with barbecue. From time to time, the aroma of meat overflowed, and even the musicians on the ice lake temporarily stopped playing the piano and looked over.
After three rounds of wine, the wind and snow gradually subsided, and barbecues were being held in the west building. The heat from the stove made the shed feel as warm as spring.
Su Yan brought a long gilt pot and said to everyone: "My lord, you are so generous. You bought a Qiankun Lock and a jade gourd with your own money as a bargaining chip. Each of the four halls must send one person to throw the pot in turn, and the winner will be divided into four rounds.
Then you can take away these two good things." After saying that, he turned his attention to Zuo Qing. Zuo Qing smiled and waved his hand, and Yansheng immediately brought the wooden tray. Everyone looked up and looked at it carefully. Some people were surprised.
: "Could these two items come from Jade Shop?"
Zuo Qing nodded and said: "This jade gourd was carved by the old shop owner many years ago. Nowadays, he rarely handles jade, so it can be regarded as a treasure."
When Liang Qiluo of Shuyoutang heard that it was from the jade workshop, he couldn't help but stood up. After seeing the two rare treasures, he was puzzled: "Looking at the world, the craftsmanship of the old workshop owner is ranked first. The jade articles he made are worth thousands of gold."
It’s hard to find, and now this jade gourd is out of print, and the master in charge actually uses it as a bargaining chip, why is this?”
"Presumably the master in charge didn't pay a big price when he bought it. Maybe he has good taste and bought several items a long time ago. I don't feel bad if one or a half is missing." Xu Ziya clasped his hands on his chest and looked at the crowd of students.
The people around the baby shook their heads and said disdainfully, "A bunch of vulgar people!"
Liang Qiluo looked at him and said with a smile: "I just like an object. As for labeling them vulgar? If you ask me, you just pretend to be noble!"
"It seems that you like that jade gourd? Tossing the pot is very simple. If you call me nice, I will do it for you!" Xu Ziya, instead of being angry, said to her with a smile.
Liang Qiluo really liked the jade gourd, but she didn't know how to throw the pot. She frowned and stared at him for a long time, and asked reluctantly: "What do you call me?"
"The better ones are naturally 'brother', 'gongzi' and the like."
"Bah! You don't come from an official family in Kyoto, nor do you belong to a famous family. How can you be considered a young master? You are just a younger brother at most."
Xu Ziya's face lit up with joy and he said: "Okay, I'll just call you my brother!" Without waiting for Liang Qiluo to explain, he quickly stood up and pushed towards the crowd.
Xu Ziya has no father or mother. No one knows his origins. They only know that he was recommended by Zuo Qing and has lived in the academy since he was a child. He is a loner and rarely interacts with others.
As the representative of Youtang, some people can't help but wonder: "Old Monster Xu, you grew up in an academy. You have never seen ordinary things from wealthy people, let alone throwing pots. But don't make a fool of yourself and lose Shu You."
Tang’s face!”
"Yes, although it is a small game, it is also a serious competition. You have never played it before. How can you have the confidence to represent Shu Youtang? You should ask Mr. Su to find someone else."
Xu Ziya did not refute, but took an arrow from the quiver, stood half a foot away from the gilt double-eared pot, and threw it casually, hitting the mouth of the pot. The nearest Qingping
The classmate saw it clearly. Apart from being shocked, his heart was full of depression: "He is just like throwing away garbage. He is too casual!"
Su Yan picked up the arrow and said happily to everyone: "Shu Youtang will send Xu Ziya to compete, and the remaining gentlemen will also quickly appoint a player."
"Then I will do this as an archeologist. It is the most fair and just one." Zuo Qing said.
In the end, Zuiyuntang was ranked first, Leshengtang was Suo Qingqiu, and Qingpingtang was Chengyu. This Chengyu had a great background, she was the daughter of the new minister of the Ministry of Justice, and her grandfather was the prince's teacher, so she was lucky enough to enter the palace when she was a child.
The palace and the little princess studied together, and later entered the academy. It is said that the family members asked to go to Qingpingtang where the Buddha is located. It seems that the Minister of Justice and the singer also have a relatively friendly relationship.
When Jin Guan saw that Suo Qingqiu was there, he immediately cheered Xu Ziya: "Old Monster Xu, you must come out on top and defeat Suo Qingqiu!"
Suo Qingqiu was stretching his wrists to loosen his muscles. Hearing such provocation, he couldn't help but feel depressed: "Nangong Jinguan, you must be sick, it's just a game!"
Jin Guan rolled his eyes and said, "Then I have to defeat you, so that I feel comfortable!"
"I have competed with masters since I was a child, and I have won every time, and today is no exception. Old Monster Xu in your school is just lucky. In terms of real kung fu, he is far inferior to me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a commotion on the other side of Le Shengtang. Now Suo Qingqiu became more and more proud. He put his hands on his waist and raised his chin proudly. Seeing that this momentum was about to be suppressed, Su Yan couldn't wait to pull Shu Youtang.
The students encouraged Xu Ziya's morale. Jin Guan patted Xu Ziya's shoulder hard and said: "You must kill everyone so that she can't even cry. From now on, you will be my Jin Guan's friend. If a friend is in trouble,
I, Jin Guan, will definitely be able to stab you in both sides, now you help me stab her!"
Xu Ziya asked her doubtfully: "Do you have any grudge?"
"That's not the case. I just feel angry when I see such a person being disrespectful to my husband!" He said, clenching his pink fists.
Xu Ziya had never known that Suo Qingqiu was so disrespectful of his teachers. He nodded vigorously. Such people must be punished.
After Zuo Qing explained the rules, Youji from Zuiyuntang was the first to bear the brunt. He entered the pot for the first time and got two chips. The look of pride was on his face. He was so happy that he wanted to see how his classmates treated him.
How admired I was, I was always discussing the sound of the long pot without even thinking about it. Only then did I notice that after I threw the arrow, there was indeed a pleasant sound coming out of the long pot, which was like the sound of plucking the strings of a piano. Immediately afterwards, Qingping
Cheng Yu was perhaps a little nervous when Tang came out of the queue. In his first attempt, the arrow missed the pot and he did not throw it in. Then Le Sheng Tang and Shu You Tang both hit the mark and each got two chips.
Another round, still started with cum, but this second time he threw the pot, he missed, Suo Qingqiu hit the ball in succession, and got another two chips. This time Cheng Yu calmed down and finally threw the arrow into the pot. Xu Ziya couldn't get out of the way.
As expected, they also won consecutively. After two games, Suo Qingqiu and Xu Ziya tied, and then won two consecutive games, hitting his ears twice, and finally won sixteen chips. Yuji stopped at four chips, and Cheng Yu won in the last game.
He regained the game with Guan'er and got eight chips. Now only Xu Ziya has not shot the last arrow.
Jin Guan asked Su Yan in a low voice: "Sir, Suo Qingqiu's two piercings are already very powerful. Old Monster Xu only got six chips three times. In the last round, he could win the game with at least one consecutive piercing. Do you think he can win?"
?"
Su Yan didn't seem to care whether Xu Ziya could win, but asked about the rules of throwing pot. Jin Guan couldn't help but rolled his eyes and said, "You haven't figured out the rules of love yet!" Although he complained, he still explained to her, "Actually,
The rules of throwing a pot are very simple. As long as you put the arrow into the pot, you will get two chips. If you throw the arrow into one of the two ears of the long pot, you will get four chips. This is called Guan Er.
That's eight chips. If every arrow hits the pot in the end, add four extra chips! Now only Suo Qingqiu enters the pot several times, two of which are pierced ears, so four more chips are added to the basic twelve chips, for a total of eight chips.
It’s sixteen chips. Right now, Old Monster Xu only has six chips in three games. If he wants to win, he must win in the last game, and he must win consecutively. Only then can he get eighteen chips and win Suo Qingqiu!”
Su Yan nodded like a fool and applauded repeatedly: "I never thought that Jin Guan, you are usually not good at academics, but you have such good skills in games. My teacher looks up to you with admiration!"
Jin Guan scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, not daring to say anything more.
Xu Ziya drew two arrows, and there was a burst of cheers before his momentum started. Suo Qingqiu suddenly panicked and looked at Xu Ziya nervously. He saw Xu Ziya pinching the arrows with both hands, the arrows rising slightly, aiming at the ears of the long pot, and facing the wind.
After casting, a clear and sweet sound came from the ampulla. Zuo Qing immediately clapped his hands and praised: "It's a hit, eight chips!"
Xu Ziya disapproved and turned around to go to Yansheng and take away the jade gourd. Suo Qingqiu saw all this and bit his lip unwillingly, but had no choice but to watch him hand over the jade gourd to Liang Qiluo.
The small game of throwing pots continued for another round, and Xu Ziya still took the remaining Qiankun Lock. Jin Guan thought that Xu Ziya gave the jade gourd to Liang Qiluo as a gesture of generosity to his classmates, so he went to ask for it shamelessly, and Xu Ziya was expressionless.
He looked at her expressively, and then threw the Qiankun Lock to Qiluo.
Su Yan leaned over and said to her: "We are two evil spirits, so we naturally help each other. When you become like them one day, you will naturally receive Xu Ziya's generous gifts."
Jin Guan became confused: "When did they become so close? Why didn't I notice?"
Su Yan patted her little face and said, "You have fun all day long, and if you can remember the way home, you are Amitabha!"
Yuanzheng has passed, and in the blink of an eye, on February 20th, classes in the academy resumed.
Jin Guan and Chang Sun Yue were both wearing new clothes today, one red and one green, dangling in front of Su Yan. Imam brought breakfast from outside. When he saw the two girls, he shouted in surprise: "
Sir, didn’t you tell all the ladies and gentlemen to read a book first and wait half an hour before going to teach? Why are you here? Now that you are here, Imam will make tea for you!”
"No need!" Jinguo grabbed her and turned to Su Yan and said, "What's the point of going to class? Let's go play on the street together later, and I'll be your host and treat you to dinner!"
The eldest grandson was more and more surprised: "Are you trying to skip class? Aren't you afraid that your parents will blame you?"
"They don't expect me to succeed in my studies. Just don't get into trouble! Besides, Mr. Su has been kind to my family. He should have been a host a long time ago. If he wants to go, he should go to the most famous tavern in Ruoshui!"
Su Yan melancholy said: "Heaven is going to entrust great responsibilities to this people. How can we be content with enjoying ourselves and ignore our studies?"
Jinguo disagreed: "The eldest grandson and I are smarter than others, and we will not become stupid if we miss a day of study." She thought of a bad idea and told Su Yan, "Sir, let Amin go to the school and call it supervising reading. Anyway, today
In the first class, few people come to the school, so no one will care, so we can go out!"
When Ah Yu, who was holding her neck by her, heard this, he quickly shouted: "No, no, no, Ah Yu can't lie!"
When Changsun Yue heard that he was going to trick someone and sneak out, he was so frightened that his eyes became dizzy. Su Yan's eyes rolled quickly, and the more he thought about it, the more beautiful he felt in his heart. He immediately nodded and agreed: "I haven't gone out for a long time, so it's up to you!"
"But I'm tired of eating at Jingzhong Restaurant, so why not go to Yunlai Pavilion..."
"It's better to go another day..." Changsun Yue said without confidence.
Jin Guan was furious: "Coward, are you afraid that your father will come to accuse you again? If Chang Sun Xi hadn't complained last time, how could we have been discovered! Don't worry, she didn't come to the academy this time.
I don’t know where I can relax!”
When Su Yan heard about Zhang Sun Xi, he remembered that he was almost convicted last time just because he appeared in Yunlai Pavilion at the same time as Jin Guan and the others. He suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart and had the idea of retreating. But He Jin couldn't help it.
Guan seemed to have taken the wrong medicine, but she couldn't resist, so she had to do it. In order to prevent the Sun family and Nangong family from coming to trouble her, she had an idea, changed into men's clothes, and went straight to Yun Lai Pavilion.
Su Yan put on a dark green brocade robe, tied up his hair and wore a crown. He was accompanied by two attendants and stopped outside Yunlai Pavilion. The boy in yellow robe was the brocade waiter, and the boy in blue robe was Changsun Yue.
Changsun Yue gently fanned his folding fan, looking like a good boy from the south of the Yangtze River, and said with a smile: "After all, Yunlai Pavilion is the most impressive and can afford the facade of this street!"
Jin Guan looked at her, shook his head repeatedly and said: "I was still timid when I was in the academy, but I changed my clothes and stood here, and I'm actually alive! Changsun Yue, aren't you pretending to be reserved?"
Changsun Yue smiled and said, "I'm not just settling in when I come here. I heard that Miss Moxuan from Yunlai Pavilion is no worse than Mr. Jin. When I came here for the first time, I ran away in a hurry and didn't have a chance to listen to her."
’s song, why don’t we order her song tonight?”
Jin Guan laughed and said: "Eldest grandson..." Before the name was even called, Su Yan covered his mouth, "Be careful of others overhearing. Let's call each other brothers and sisters. Don't call each other by his first name."
After explaining, the three of them walked in side by side, and immediately greeted several well-qualified women, trying to compete for business. Xu Niang saw Su Yan from a distance, and immediately came up to her, "Hey! Mr. Su! I haven't been here for a few days, and finally I finally
Thinking of us!"
Su Yan quickly pushed her away with a fan, "Aren't you telling lies with your eyes open? I've only been here a few times and you said you won't come for a few days. Don't let my friends laugh at me!"
"Yes, yes, I made a mistake! So what kind of girl does Mr. Su need this time?" As he said this, he called in a few more women.
When the two young men behind him saw this, they stepped back one after another. Su Yan hurriedly said: "My two friends just want to single out Miss Moxuan. She shouldn't have gone out yet, right?"
Xu Niang smiled and shook her feather fan, "You really think I can't tell? Why are you ordering Mo Xuan? Have fun or accompany you with wine? I don't think I can do anything, right?"
"You...what do you mean?!" Jin Guan said nervously.
Xu Niang said with a smile: "It's not interesting. If that's the case, then let Mo Xuan serve you young masters. Don't bear it anymore!" After that, she led them upstairs, and they met Mo Xuan at the corner of the second floor.
Wearing a blue-gray floor-length skirt, her apricot red lips made her skin even more translucent, making her look very beautiful.
Su Yan was stunned, but was pulled back by Chang Sun Yue's exclamation. Su Yan could only hear the word Chang Sun Xi. Following her gaze, several people were startled. What a big surprise!
Su Yan separated the two of them and identified them carefully. It turned out that it was Chang Sun Xi who was disguised as a man. Who were the men around him?
"That person comes here often. He is a woman just like you. He is very troublesome!" Xu Niang frowned and said.
Su Yan exclaimed: "She is already engaged, Ruoshui folk customs are so wild!"
Xu Niang rolled her eyes: "Ruoshui's folk customs are very good, it's just her who is dissolute."
Su Yan was not worried about whether to be a promiscuous or not, and stared at the men with soft faces and marveled. Xu Niang, Chang Sun Yue and others were caught off guard. Su Yan was not surprised by the appearance of Chang Sun Xi, but instead did something to Yun Lai Pavilion.
The business is very curious!
"Hi! They are the sponsors. They bought a private room here, and they play and sing every night. You can hear them from a long way away!" She secretly glanced at the two people next to Su Yan, lowered her voice and leaned close to her ear.
He said, "Those men are not mine. They were brought in by Miss Changsun from outside and they just borrowed my land."
Just as he was talking, Chang Sun Xi spotted them, a flash of panic flashed across his face, and he immediately pushed the man next to him into the room. When he turned around and walked towards Su Yan, his face was completely calm.
"Isn't this Mr. Su? Why are you here to drink flower wine?" Changsun Xi spoke first. She thought that by doing this, she could unite her as an army. However, Su Yan did not accept this and asked, "I just came in."
These two handsome men are quite tall, and they don't match your small body. Could it be..."
"Su Yan!" Changsun Xi shouted sharply, "What's the matter with you? I'm here to do something, and I have to report to you? But you, this is a brothel, does it violate the court rules for you to appear here as a gentleman? Oh
! Here are two of your most popular disciples. Why, your eldest grandson, Yue Gong Jinguo, you two don’t even say hello when you see me. Are you feeling guilty?"
Su Yan found it funny. It was obvious that she was caught by him, but how could she be so confident? She was indeed shameless, but it was really hard to match.
"I'm sorry, we're here to drink, just drink! But you, these two male prostitutes just came in..." Before Jin Guan finished speaking, Changsun Xi stepped forward and slapped her, and Jin Guan stared at her angrily.
, If Su Yan hadn't stopped him, he would have rushed forward to show off!
"Chang Sun Xi!" Su Yan warned: "I was once your husband, so I would like to give you some advice. The three of us have seen what happened today. If you dare to do evil again, don't blame us for being ruthless.
Take care of yourself!" After saying that, he pulled Jin Guan back and walked back. Changsun Yue was so frightened that he almost cried while dragging Su Yan, "She doesn't have any tricks waiting for us, does she? How about we go and apologize.
Sorry, it’s better to leave this matter alone, we must not offend her, it will not end well!”
Su Yan dragged two oil bottles and said to them as he walked: "What a joke, I, Su Yan, am the master of the class, how can I be afraid of her? Don't scare yourself. If she really dares to deal with you, I will have to
Treat her differently!"
Jin Guan glanced at Changsun Yue with disdain and echoed: "That's right, Changsun Xi has been taught a lesson by General Yan. If she still dares to deal with you and your husband, it will cost her life! I don't think she cares about her life."
People are probably trying to bluff you."
Changsun Yue was still worried, sighed, and could only leave with them.
Changsun Xi looked at them and stamped his feet fiercely, biting his lip, his eyes full of viciousness. Xu Niang hurriedly stepped forward to comfort them, "Miss Changsun, they don't know how high the sky is and how high the earth is. Don't be offended by your arrogance!"
"I am the eldest grandson of the Sun family, why bother with bitches like them? You serve me the best wine. I can't spare you if you delay me!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" After saying that, Madam Xu immediately went downstairs and ordered the kitchen to prepare wine and food. She turned around and left Yunlai Pavilion, called a few strangers, lowered her head and gave a few instructions, and then those people left.
