Volume 2 Flowers follow the willows, the clouds are light and the wind is light! Chapter 34 The so-called chivalry
Downing has always believed that the essence of wontons lies in the soup, and with a good broth, it doesn't matter whether the filling is good or not.
It's clear that the chef and Downing have the same idea, and the wonton soup has a strong aroma of chicken soup. Paired with the secret sauce provided by the store, eating this bowl of wontons is simply a treat.
It's a pity that there is no chili oil, only dogwood powder. While dogwood powder can also provide some spiciness, that feeling is not what Downing wants.
Although the wontons are delicious, Sun He and Liu Yier eat them relatively restrainedly, and they don't care about the handlebar style of a free dinner.
Normally, these handlebar styles that go north and south generally have a fixed place, such as from Runzhou to Suzhou, and the coachman will take the guests to a more familiar inn.
The money collected by the inn on these guests will also be divided into a part of it to the coachman. Coachmen usually don't stay in guest rooms, and inns will provide them with bunks or other places to rest.
As for those who did not know the inn, they would drop the guests to an inn, and then they would park the carriage in a place, sleep in the carriage for the night, and after getting up in the morning, they would pick up the guests and continue their journey.
The coachman, who said that he was not good, naturally could not have a good relationship with these inns. Sun He didn't want to care about him, but Tang Ning said to bring the coachman with him.
So Sun He asked for four rooms and ordered a bowl of wontons for the coachman.
The coachman didn't say much, and when he had finished eating, he stumbled and thanked him, and then ran to feed his horse. Sun He said that the coachman was only in his thirties, but Tang Ning thought that this man was forty or fifty years old.
Liu Yi'er's mood still didn't improve after eating, she rinsed her mouth, and was led to her room by Xiao Er, and never came out again.
Sun He was more cautious, and under the pretext of going out for a walk, he was actually secretly observing whether there were any people who were following him, and at the same time, he was also memorizing the terrain, so that if something happened, he would not run around like a headless fly when he escaped.
It was getting late, and the bored Downing went to his room, opened the window and looked down.
There aren't many people on this street, but there are quite a few of them. There was also a tailor shop opposite the inn, and from Tang Ning's point of view, he could clearly see the young and beautiful proprietress in that shop.
Many scholars gathered in front of the tailor's shop to pretend to look at the fabric, and then shook the bookbag with a donkey's lips and a horse's mouth.
My Fair Lady, Gentleman. It's all human nature, and Downing smiled and stopped paying attention to the tailor's shop. He knew that these scholars and the proprietress would not be like in the story, because they admired their talents.
Running a shop at a young age, he has seen a lot more of the world than these guys who only know how to read dead books. In other words, the two sides are not people of the same world at all.
Idealists and realists don't end well together.
Glancing around, one person soon caught Tangning's attention. It was a Taoist priest leading a donkey, Tang Ning looked at the sword on the Taoist priest's back and the dust whisk in his hand, and was very sure that this guy was the Taoist priest he saw in the black shop yesterday.
Way? Tang Ning was immediately interested, ran downstairs with a swoop, and saw that the Taoist priest had not gone far, so he shouted: "This Taoist leader, this Taoist leader, please stay!" ”
The Song Dynasty was the peak of Taoism, and it was not uncommon to see Taoist priests on the street. Tang Ning's shout attracted the attention of many people, but they looked at it twice and continued to hurry.
The Taoist priest stopped, looked back and said to Tang Ning with a kind look: "What is the matter with this little brother calling the poor Daoist?" ”
Tang Ning said very badly: "Do you know how to calculate the hexagram, you can calculate a hexagram for me?" ”
The Taoist priest was puzzled: "This ...... The poor Tao will be counted, but the fortune calculation is the act of stealing the number of days, and the three non-occupation is the principle that people in Taoism need to abide by, so the little brother and the poor Tao can not help. Amitayus. ”
Damn, this person was seen in that black shop yesterday, I better stay away from him, don't get involved with him, it doesn't look like a good person, why did you come here.
The Taoist priest secretly slandered himself in his heart.
"Three don'ts? I'm still striking iron. Tang Ning scoffed at the Taoist priest's statement: "You just say that you don't give it to me!" ”
The corners of the Taoist priest's mouth twitched: "It's not difficult for a strong man, right?" ”
"You just don't want to count me."
"Poor Dao didn't say he didn't want to...... "The Taoist priest is about to cry, have you met a live robber?"
"Then you'll count it for me."
The Taoist priest cried: "This little brother, please don't be embarrassed for the poor Dao anymore, the poor Dao really can't tell you hexagrams." ”
"Okay, you remember it for me." Tang Ning sneered and said, "Be careful of being hit by a carriage when you go out of the city." ”
The Taoist priest was stunned for a moment, and then was shocked. Although he glanced at it in a hurry yesterday, he saw the terrible scene in the inn. Could it be that this little bully wants his own life just because he doesn't tell him a fortune?
It's so deceitful! Is it tolerable or unbearable, the Taoist priest decided to endure it.
The three fierce guys in the inn yesterday were not easy to mess with, they were much more powerful than the vulnerable robbers, and it could be seen from the fact that they were not moving in the slightest.
Don't make trouble, this time I'm going to Xiuzhou to deliver things to others. After honestly delivering the things, I hurried back to the mountain to study Lei Fa, the world below the mountain is still too terrifying.
At the same time, Sun He didn't know when he came to Tang Ning's side, and whispered: "Tang Gongzi, do you really want to arrange for someone to kill that Taoist priest?" ”
Tang Ning looked at Sun He strangely and said, "Where did I get the manpower?" I don't know anyone in Suzhou City......"
"Then you just said ......"
"I'm talking about fun, isn't he the Taoist priest who ran away after saying 'excuse me' yesterday? I don't want to get into trouble, and I don't want to get involved with it. Dressed in a chivalrous outfit, he did things that were gutless.
To tell the truth, this person ruined the word hero in my imagination.
Therefore, I deliberately teased him, and it was also a relief from boredom. Tang Ning said hatefully.
Sun He sighed and said, "Tang Gongzi, who dares to be a hero in this year?" Do you want to die? ”
"Huh? This...... How do you say that? Tang Ning was stunned by Sun He's words.
Isn't it true that the people in the rivers and lakes aim to be heroes that everyone respects? For example, Guo Jing and Yang Guo......
Sun He glanced at Tang Ning, and when he saw his blank face, he said helplessly: "Tang Gongzi, do you have any misunderstanding of the word xia?"
The so-called chivalry is used to describe a person who relies on heroism to make friends and share hardships, and then forms a power by making friends with others. This is chivalrous.
In the Western Han Dynasty, there was a man named Guo Jie, who was a typical hero. For the sake of his friends, he can do any bad thing, kill people and set fires, rob tombs to pay off debts, do all the evil things, and still be a chivalrous.
After Guo Jie, all dynasties and dynasties disciplined these rangers and chivalrous warriors in order to restrict the appearance of such people. And select a large number of the powerful soldiers, if there is no anger, they will be arrested in the name of the imperial court, put in prison, depending on the situation, to convict the crime, beheading is not unprecedented.
Now that there are frequent wars in our dynasty, the Western Xia has repeatedly violated our borders, and I am worried that there are not enough soldiers. In this case, who dares to be a hero?
The so-called people in the rivers and lakes are just a group of selfish guys. They just want to be happy and do what they want, and they don't care what the consequences of their actions are.
A few years ago, there was a case in Liangzhejiang Road, and the short-term workers who were dismissed by the landlord had a bad personality and were resentful, and went around saying bad things about the landlord's family. The landlord is actually not bad, and he takes great care of the villagers.
Later, a chivalrous man passed by, listened to what the short-term worker said, and killed all 47 members of the landlord's family that night.
The next day, he ran to a nearby village and announced that he had killed the landlord who had oppressed the good landlord. As a result, all the people except for the short-term worker spoke ill of him, and after asking the reason, he stood at the door of the landlord's house and wiped his neck with a sword, and he apologized.
He died a happy death, but what about the forty-seven people? Just because he relied on his own strength, wanted to become famous, and wanted to be praised by the people, he wanted to kill.
It's okay to kill the wrong one, and it's a hundred to apologize for committing suicide. After all, sinners are dead, and even if everyone has eight mouths, it is useless to speak to a dead person.
Even if the landlord was a wicked man, what right did he have to kill his entire family? From the old man to the child, no one has been spared, since the founding of Emperor Taizu in our dynasty, there is only one case of the punishment of the nine clans of Zhulian.
People all over the world think that we, as officials, have eyes and ears all over the world, in order to supervise hundreds of officials in the world, so that the officials can be ignorant and ruthless, but in fact, the officials sent us out to prevent this kind of person from appearing!
If these so-called chivalrous men are allowed to violate the ban by force, won't the world be chaotic? So after catching this kind of person, he usually has a tattoo on his face and is exiled to Qin Fenglu.
Have the strength to go with the party members, and don't harm the innocent people who are also Han Chinese. ”
