As Chao Gai, the King of Pagoda, shouted, everyone looked at Wu Yong with extremely serious eyes, which made him feel terrified.
"Could it be that he was exposed?" Zhiduoxing Wu Yong secretly squeezed his sweat, shook his goose feather fan and said, "I just felt sick in my stomach, so I went to the hospital."
Chao Gai burst into laughter: "Ui Dun, it is indeed the Ui Dun that Xiandi Ximen said. I can't accept it, haha."
"Bird shield? What bird shield?" Wu Yong breathed a sigh of relief, but he really didn't understand what "bird shield" meant.
"Haha, bird shield? That's interesting." Chao Gai, the King of Tota, turned to Ximen Qing and said: "Xiandi, the word "Urine Escape" is so new. Even Military Advisor Wu is known as Zhiduo Xing and has never heard of it. Come on, explain it to him.
."
Ximen Qing coughed and said with a smile: "It's urine escape, not bird shield. Speaking of which, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty was the first person to escape from urine. He noticed something was wrong at the Hongmen Banquet and pretended to relieve himself and escaped. This is urine escape." He said: "
Could it be that this celebration banquet is a Hongmen Banquet for military advisors? Let’s take a sip of wine.”
Ximen Qing had another deep meaning in this sentence. Others did not hear it, but Ximen Qing knew that Zhiduoxing Wu Yong knew it well.
Chao Gai was alive and well, Zengtou City was captured, and Shi Wengong was captured alive. This was indeed a celebration banquet for others, and what they drank was fine wine, but for Wu Yong, what he drank was Coptis chinensis.
To Ximen Qing's surprise, Zhiduoxing Wu Yong not only showed no signs of discomfort, but instead raised his big porcelain bowl with a squinted smile and replied: "Of course this is also a celebration banquet for me. Not only is it a celebration for our army to win the victory in one go,
Zengtou City, we also want to celebrate the good health of Brother Tianwang, and we have the great help of the master Ximen."
Wu Yong emphasized the word "great help" so hard that Ximen Qing had to think deeply about its meaning. He suddenly remembered that Wu Yong had just left his seat for a long time. Could he have some conspiracy?
"Damn it, I actually forgot about Shi Wengong." Ximen Qing looked stern and looked around quickly. Of course Shi Wengong was not at the celebration banquet, but another key figure, the golden retriever Duan Jingzhu, had just seen him.
Sure enough, Duan Jingzhu, who had been drinking not long ago, had disappeared.
A chill suddenly passed through Ximen Qing's heart. Zhi Duoxing Wu Yong was indeed a good conspirator. He actually took the opportunity of the celebration banquet to do something. He didn't even think of this.
Have Shi Wengong and Duan Jingzhu disappeared by now?
"Oh, whatever Ximen Miaoshou was thinking is about to spill out." Zhiduoxing Wu reminded with good intentions: "There are many people waiting for you."
Living Yama Ruan Xiao Qida nodded, with a look of salivation: "If you don't drink it, I will drink it first. This wine is so fragrant that it has brought out the wine bug in my stomach."
The boy next to Ximen Qing sneered: "This wine is brewed by my master, not ordinary village wine. It's hard to take some with you to drink on the road. If you drink it like this, you will lose a few hundred coins in one gulp."
"Don't be irrational when you draw children." Ximen Qing scolded: "Even if this wine is boiled with gold, I would still give it away. There is no money for it."
Chao Gai smiled and said: "As a filial son, why should Ximen brother be angry? There is also some good wine in the mountains. I will bring more when the time comes."
Over there, Ruan Xiaoqi couldn't help but take a bite. He felt that his mouth was very smooth and full of energy. He patted the table and said: "I think even officials may not be able to drink such good wine in the future."
How can I get the wine into my mouth?"? This is Jingyang, and this wine is brewed by the master Ximen."
Although Chao Gai was still injured, he couldn't help but take a sip. He closed his eyes and savored it carefully. After a long time, he nodded and praised: "This wine can only be found in heaven. Brother Ximen, brother, I have an unkind favor. I don't know."
Should I say it or not?"
"Brother Tianwang, just tell me what you have to say." Ximen Qing's mind was filled with Shi Wengong and Duan Jingzhu's affairs, and he did not show much happiness. In the eyes of others, he looked calm: "As long as I
There is no doubt that it can be done."
"Okay, okay." Chao Gai, the king of Tota, nodded repeatedly: "My dear brother, I don't know. There is a Zhugui brother on the mountain who knows how to brew wine. I wonder if my dear brother can give him a share of the brewing recipe, so that Liangshan will be able to make wine in the future.
There’s also Jingyangchun.”
"This recipe doesn't matter." Ximen Qing thought for a moment and said, "It's just that my winemakers are still in Qinghe County. Without them, we wouldn't be able to brew it."
Chao Gai happily agreed: "This is easy to handle, just send someone to pick it up. Liangshan is short of everything. It needs people, land, and grain for brewing. Brother, please consider it?"
Making wine in Liangshan? This idea doesn’t sound bad. The biggest advantage is that you can keep it secret, and more importantly, you don’t have to pay taxes.
Liquor tax is a heavy tax no matter what era or country, so brewing private wine is definitely a way to make a fortune. Just like Ximen Qing himself, he had benefited a lot from the care of Magistrate Zhu in Qinghe County.
, if we move to Liangshan to make wine, we don’t have to deal with the government anymore. No one is so stupid as to send a tax collector to the village to check the accounts?
Moreover, the grain for brewing is also produced from Liangshan, so manpower is free and the place is free.
There are benefits, huge benefits
Done
Ximen Qing agreed very happily and added his own conditions: "When the wine is produced, not only will it be supplied to the Shanzhai, but the rest will also be transported to Dongshu for sale. I will not turn over the profit to the Shanzhai."
"Do you still talk about this among brothers?" Chao Gai patted his chest and said, "As long as the supply of copycats continues, you have the final say on how many good brothers you can brew."
Next to him, Zhiduoxing Wu Yong had a sudden thought when he heard this: "Ximen Qing is not a simple guy. To put it this way, he is just a white wolf with nothing. Will Liangshan not become his brewery of Ximen Qing in the future?"
However, Chao Gai, the King of Pagodas, has already taken over everything, so Wu Yong has nothing to say. Anyway, if Ximen Qing is killed by then, the way to make money will be Song Jiang's and his own.
Ximen Qing and Wu Yong both jingled their abacus and smiled.
"Come on, I've been talking nonsense for a long time, let's drink." Ruan Xiaoqi had already finished one bowl, and felt warm and comfortable in his stomach, so he went to pour another bowl.
The leaders all smiled and picked up their bowls. When they were about to drink, a soldier from behind ran over in a panic and said: "It's not good. He's dead."
All the leaders looked sideways. Ximen Qing was shocked when he heard this. Looking at Wu Yong, the wise man opposite, with a face that was half-smiling but not smiling, he immediately knew that something was wrong.
Chao Gai, the King of Pagoda, frowned, ordered his men to bring the soldier and asked, "Why are you so nervous? Who is dead?"
The soldier kowtowed and said: "Big boss, come on. The young man and a few brothers were ordered by the military advisor to go to the back to guard Shi Wengong. Unexpectedly, they found a smell of blood coming from the tent. They boldly went in and took a look. Shi Wengong was still there.
There was a new leader, a golden retriever called Duan Jingzhu, who was covered in blood and died on the ground."
"What happened?" Chao Gai threw away the wine bowl in his hand, stood up and shouted, "Where are the soldiers who were guarding us earlier?"
The soldier replied: "When we went there, there was no one outside the tent."
When Ximen Qing heard this, he knew that someone must have done something to lure away the soldiers who were originally guarding him, and this person was most likely Zhi Duoxing Wu Yong.
At this time, a painting boy on the side pulled his master's sleeve and whispered: "Sir, when I went to get the wine, I bumped into the fan waving the fan. The guy seemed to have come out of a tent.
"
Ximen Qing nodded slightly, indicating that he understood, and then heard Chao Gai, the king of the tower, said angrily: "Someone, please quickly arrest the soldiers who were guarding for questioning."
The leaders were whispering to each other and discussing, and all of them looked confused or angry.
"Who did this?"
"It was hard to capture Shi Wengong alive, was it easy?"
"Even the newly joined golden retriever died. What the hell does this mean?"
When Chao Gai was young, several drunken soldiers were brought over. They could hardly salute when they saw Chao Gai. Chao Gai's face suddenly darkened when he saw that these soldiers were extremely drunk.
"Pull them all down for me. Twenty military sticks will be waiting for you. I'll ask you questions when you wake up."
"Wait a minute." Zhiduoxing Wu Yong stopped him: "I saw these soldiers were working hard, so I specially found someone to change the guard so that I could share some food and wine. If Brother Tianwang wants to punish them, it will start with me."
"Oh, it's my fault. I saw that Shi Wengong was still awake and tied tightly, so I didn't let the soldiers wait until the changing of the guard before leaving."
"Huh? Wu Yong is always trying to advance before retreating," Ximen Qing thought: "This move is cruel enough. For the sake of brotherly love, King Chao Tian will definitely not do anything to Wu Yong, but in this way, this
I took advantage of the time difference to cover up the matter of killing Shi Wengong and Duan Jingzhu."
Sure enough, Chao Gai's face looked a little better. He shook his head and said: "The military advisor is considerate of the soldiers, but he is not guilty. How can a man be blameless if he is not a sage? It must have been that Shi Wengong was sober, broke free from the rope, and happened to meet Duan Jingzhu.
."
When Wu Yong, a wise man, saw that Chao Gai had followed his own plan, he was secretly proud of himself and apologized endlessly.
Chao Gai, the King of Pagoda, shouted back the soldiers and took the leaders to the back to check. Sure enough, two corpses, Shi Wengong and Duan Jingzhu, fell to the ground, and there were many signs of cutting the ropes.
While everyone was checking, Zhiduoxing Wu pretended to accidentally kick out the bloody sharp knife on the ground, and exclaimed: "It turns out that Shi Wengong was hiding a sharp weapon, so he cut off the rope and escaped. Unfortunately, Brother Duan Jingzhu had just joined the gang, and he and Shi Wengong
perish together"
Of course Ximen Qing knew that this must be Wu Yong's lies. Even Wu Song next to him frowned when he heard this. He obviously didn't think that since Shi Wengong had the ability to escape, he could "accidentally" die together with Duan Jingzhu.
