(Thank you for the monthly pass of 100 possible book lovers)
In the face of Zhang Yuan's unpretentious appearance and the Zhang family's nursing home, Su Jin did not feel uncomfortable at all, but walked in the rain and commented on the Zhang family's house.
"Mr. Zhang is really an elegant person, the flowers and trees in this courtyard are lush and quiet, under the drizzle, the eyes are full of new green, which is very attractive, but there is a taste of the southern courtyard; Spring in the northwest is late, and the south is already full of flowers at this moment, but here it is a re-appreciation of the meaning of early spring, which is very pleasing to the eye. ”
"Hmph, did Lord Su come here to enjoy the scenery of spring? I'm afraid I don't mean to do this. ”
Su Jin said with a smile: "Of course there are other purposes, but it just comes with feelings, it can be seen from the layout of the court that although Lord Zhang is in the Xia Kingdom, he will never forget the layout of the Song Kingdom; If there are a few swallows flying in the rain in front of you, it will be more like the situation in the south. ”
Zhang Yuan said with a straight face: "It's better for Master Su not to be idle, think about your own situation, that is, to become a swift, this time you will not be able to escape from Xingqing Mansion." ”
Su Jin laughed and said, "Lord Zhang is so spoiled by the scenery, okay, before you take me to ask for credit, how about we enjoy the spring rain here?" ”
Zhang Yuandao: "That's nature, the visitor is a guest, there must always be some hospitality, since you like the scenery in this courtyard, let's make tea on the small pavilion over there, come to the people, clean up the pavilion, put on the tea set." ”
Su Jin smiled: "Very good, please!" ”
Zhang Yuantou led the way, Su Jin and the woman in red followed behind, the three of them turned around a clump of weeping willows, and a small pavilion appeared in front of them, with green eaves and gray columns, which was very chic.
Su Jin looked up at the plaque on the pavilion's eyebrows and said with a smile: "Sigui Pavilion, good name!" It must have been inscribed by Lord Zhang himself, I don't know if the adult is thinking about returning to the south, or thinking about returning to the old age? Or both. ”
Zhang Yuan snorted and said: "You guessed wrong, these three words are given by the emperor's imperial pen, borrowing the thoughts of the beloved, expressing the desire for talents, you explain yourself, but you are a little clever." ”
Su Jin smiled slightly, stepped up to the pavilion, patted the railing with his hand and sang softly: "The grass is green, the poplars are green, and the heart is leisurely; Sijun Sijun, Jun is gone, and you are waiting for you to return; Ask the beloved, Hu does not return? Hometown is also waiting for you to return, thousands of fibers, fluttering, Yingying meeting; Thinking about it, but you don't see it, stupid and waiting for peace to comfort people, Hu doesn't return? Waiting for you to come back, I asked again and again, Hu is not going back? Hu, no return? Ask far away, sing softly, wait for you to return, ask me, do you want to return? Hu no return? ”
This tune is peculiar, by no means like the current popular lyrics and tunes, but it is euphemistic and very moving.
Zhang Yuan was upset when he heard it, and when Su Jin finished singing, he said quietly: "I didn't expect that Master Su would also slang the village song, and such a song that can't be used on the stage will also be used to pollute people's eyes." ”
Su Jin smiled, sat on the stone bench in the hall, and said: "I smiled, I don't know why, as soon as I arrived in the northwest, I remembered the scenery of the Great Song Dynasty, and my heart naturally swelled up with so much sorrow, Lord Zhang, don't be surprised, you and I can be regarded as old people, if you don't look at anything else, just for the sake of me coming all the way to visit here, you will also forgive the gaffe below, right?" ”
Zhang Yuan sighed and said: "That's right, but I can't forget the situation when I was teased by you when I was in Weizhou, you came with a lupine scarf, and I only saw the cunning heart under your clothes." ”
Su Jin said with a smile: "It seems that it has broken Lord Zhang's heart, if this is the case, it is not possible to compensate here, this time I came to make amends, and it was helpless to be the master of the day." ”
"Compensation?" Zhang Yuan sneered, and didn't answer Su Jin's words, it was obvious that this kid was playing tricks again, and the best way was to ignore it.
The tea on the stone table was already boiling, Zhang Yuan personally reached out and took the teacup, took the tea bag, made the tea, took a cup and put it in front of Su Jin and said, "Use the tea." ”
Su Jin nodded in thanks, picked up a cup and sniffed it on the end of his nose, and suddenly raised his hand and leaned into the mud outside the railing, Zhang Yuan said angrily: "What are you doing?" Could it be that my tea is poisonous? ”
Su Jin waved his hand and said: "Don't misunderstand, Lord Zhang, I just didn't expect Lord Zhang to really fall to such a point, if I guess correctly, I'm afraid this tea is still last year's autumn tea, right?" Could it be that I am one of the 10,000 catties of tea given by the Great Song Dynasty? Hey, how can you drink the tea, the three divisions are very stingy, the tea leaves for you are all old tea after the autumn, and our people in the Song Dynasty are used to fill the pillow core, how can Lord Zhang also drink this tea. ”
Zhang Yuan's face turned red, and he said angrily: "It's not thanks to you, you pretend to be innocent, all this was arranged by you, isn't it?" I only have this kind of tea here, you can drink it, if you don't drink it, don't pull it down, don't come to practice the old man. ”
Su Jin arched his hand and said: "How dare you practice Lord Zhang in the future, I specially brought this year's new tea to Lord Zhang, Duanyun, take out the tea and boil a pot for Lord Zhang to taste." ”
The woman in red beside her was Yeli Duanyun, seeing Su Jin's instructions, she hurriedly asked someone to move the things on the carriage down, several large boxes and cages were placed next to the pavilion, and after they were all opened, there were all kinds of silk and satin and all kinds of exquisite playthings, Yeli Duanyun took out a tea bucket, took out a small pinch of green tea leaves from it, and brewed it for Su Jin and Zhang Yuan.
Su Jin said: "This is Lingnan cloud tea, born on the top of the high mountain, Lingnan climate is warm, so there is a new tea in the first month, I spent a lot of money to order someone to collect this small jar, not to tell you, today I am also the first time to taste, it is said that this tea is green like a flower, after entering the water to produce the fragrance of clouds and mist, today I want to see if this is the case." ”
Zhang Yuan was erudite and knowledgeable, and naturally knew that what Su Jin said was true, and looked down to see that the tea leaves were floating in the cup, and the fruit was like a plate of big green stamens blooming, fragrant and fragrant, and he couldn't help but stretch out his mouth and take a sip, and suddenly his tongue and brain seemed to be much clearer.
"Please Zhang Zhongshu smile, and these ordinary things are all given to Mr. Zhang as a meeting gift, Mr. Zhang must not refuse." Su Jin pointed to the cages.
Zhang Yuanxin said: Ordinary things? These gifts are worth a lot of money, is this kid really here to apologize? No, you can't be fooled.
"Lord Su didn't come to find the old man just to give a gift to the old man, although you have caused me to lose face and made me lose the prestige of Daxia, but as you said, there is nothing wrong with each being his master; It's really redundant to give such a generous gift today, and I can't ask for it. ”
Su Jin said: "Take it, it's not easy for me to bring it all the way, is it possible that you want me to take it all the way away?" ”
Zhang Yuandao: "Unless you say what you mean, you can't accept it." ”
Su Jin said: "I said a long time ago, I came to meet me today to apologize, the gift is second, and there is another big gift." ”
Zhang Yuan frowned and said, "Oh? But I want to see what it is a great gift to know. ”
Su Jin smiled: "I'm here to save Lord Zhang's life." ”
Zhang Yuan was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing, pointing at Su Jin's nose and laughing out of breath, a puff of beautiful hair flew up, and his body trembled violently.
"Hahaha, you came to repeat the old trick again, deliberately said some alarmist words, I knew that you didn't come well, did you treat this place as Weizhou City? Hehe, the old man's endurance is limited, and he doesn't want to listen to you, so he took you into the palace and handed it over to the emperor to deal with. He wants to eat your flesh raw and peel your skin. Zhang Yuan gritted his teeth and looked hideous.
Su Jin burst out laughing, took a sip of tea and said, "Master Zhang, don't you want to scare me, there is a peace agreement between the two countries, I am standing in front of Li Yuanhao, how dare he kill me." ”
Zhang Yuan sneered: "If you are an official envoy, you will naturally not be able to help you, and if you sneak in private, you can be directly executed when you are meticulous; Although you are a member of the Song Kingdom, we pretend not to know you here, and slaughtering you is no different from slaughtering a pig and dog. ”
Su Jin raised his hand and said, "Count you ruthless, but what good is this for you, Master Zhang?" Lord Zhang retreated to the shore of Heishui Lake, which means that the sun is about to set and there will be no future in the West Mountain, is it possible that Lord Zhang is counting on handing me over, so that he can make a comeback, and he can compete with Wuzang Pang to regain power, and he can gain Li Yuanhao's trust again? Lord Zhang is shrewd, so he won't be unable to settle this account. ”
Zhang Yuan stood up suddenly, pointed at Su Jin and said, "What are you going to do?" Why do you know so much about the situation in my Great Xia? Do you want the old man to be your Song domestic response, and take advantage of the chaos to destroy the Xia Kingdom? ”
Su Jin waved his hand and said: "Don't be excited, how could I let Master Zhang do such a thing, I have already made it clear that I want to come, why do you have to speculate; I'm here to give you ideas to avoid the impending death. ”
Zhang Yuan waved his hand and said: "Don't bother with it, the old man retires and doesn't ask about political affairs, what is the danger of killing." ”
Su Jin sneered: "The tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, you have played a discussion on impeachment in the court and did not hide Pang many times, according to the temper of not hiding Pang, will he let you go?" Will he let you enjoy the countryside in peace? You dream, you. ”
Zhang Yuandao: "So what? The emperor is here, what does he dare to do to me? ”
Su Jin laughed and said, "What if the emperor is not here?" Who's going to protect you? ”
Zhang Yuan was dumbfounded and said: "The emperor is in full bloom, there are at least fifty years, no, one hundred years to live......"
Su Jin took a sip and said, "Forget it, don't deceive yourself, you and I both understand, who knows if there will be a life tomorrow in these years?" is the emperor, how many can die well? The birth of the little prince of the Wuzang clan, this is the beginning of your Xia Kingdom's sword and sword, you read history books and classics, when you understand what kind of incident the current situation will cause, don't pretend to be confused, think about your position. ”
