Chu Huan understood Linlang's mood at this time, and he also wanted to hug Linlang into his arms at this time to comfort him, but this place was obviously out of place, seeing Linlang's tears rolling down uncompetitively, he took pity in his heart and took out a champa, which was a champa that Linlang gave him privately, but at this time it was used to wipe Linlang's tears.

Linlang took the champa, although the mood was heavy and sad, but the posture was still very elegant, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said softly: "I sent someone to the county seat yesterday and brought the key to the wine cellar, planning to let the master send the two jars of wine kings over." Master Dasaku and his uncle came with him today, and for safety, he also brought ten men with him. ”

Chu Huan frowned and said, "Could it be that there are still people blocking the way on the way?" ”

Linlang said: "When they came, my uncle hired a carriage, and the wine king put it in the carriage, and my aunt guarded it. They are taking the official road, and they are traveling in the blue sky and daytime, so there should be no mistakes in their skills. ”

Chu Huan bowed slightly.

"But halfway through, they said that they met a group of beggars on the official road, and when the group of beggars saw them passing, one of the beggars suddenly rushed out of the side of the road ......!" When Linlang said this, he sighed lightly: "The beggar came out suddenly, and was knocked down by our horse, and the group of beggars on the side of the road surrounded ......!" ”

Chu Huan's brows locked: "A group of beggars appeared inexplicably? "I just think there's something wrong with that.

If it is said that on the boundary of Tongzhou, it is not uncommon to meet beggars on the way, Tongzhou is poor and there are many beggars, but in the area of Yunshan Mansion, there are few large numbers of beggars on the road.

Linlang's eyebrows frowned slightly, her expression was solemn, and she nodded slightly: "The master of the great master dismounted and led people to theorize with that group of beggars, he was steady, naturally he would not quarrel with that group of beggars, just persuasion, good words and discussions, I wanted to spend some silver, but ......!" Speaking of this, he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "But my uncle got off at this time, and he even stepped forward with two jars of wine kings ......!" ”

Chu Huan's heart sank, knowing that something was going to happen.

Sure enough, Linlang continued: "The group of beggars saw their uncle coming up, but they suddenly rushed up, and before everyone woke up, the two jars of wine kings in my uncle's hands were snatched away, and the master of the great master immediately let people chase after them, and the group ......of people moved, the two altars of wine kings were broken on the spot, and the group of beggars also dispersed in a hurry!" He smiled bitterly and said, "This is the will of heaven." ”

Chu Huan said softly: "Go and get the wine king, why didn't you tell me?" ”

Linlang said: "You've been on an errand for a while, and you're tired, I'm ...... I don't want you to worry about the sake thing. ”

When Chu Huan heard this, he was moved in his heart, in fact, he had always been very concerned about Linlang's imperial wine selection, and for this reason, he laid the groundwork on the side of King Yingren of Qi.

It's just that he is now on duty on the Xingyuan side, but he doesn't have time to be with Linlang all day, listening to Linlang's words full of concern, his heart was moved, and he almost wanted to hold Linlang's little hand, but he still held back and said softly: "Linlang, now your business is my business, your unhappiness is my unhappiness, I also remember the matter of the wine king in my heart, and I thought that someone would be sent to pick it up tomorrow." I have also taken leave from the guard army to the guard system, and I wanted to go to the county seat in person tomorrow, but who knows ......! Speaking of this, he still smiled and said: "But things have happened, let's calm down and think about other countermeasures." ”

Linlang listened to Chu Huan's soft words, and her desperate heart was also warm, she smiled reluctantly, and then shook her head lightly and said: "In the past five years, in the heart of my Su family, to be able to fight with the Fang family, it is to rely on the King of Wine." The people of the Fang family were not stupid, after they took the imperial wine five years ago, it was impossible for them to expect what would happen five years later, so they must have prepared early. After a pause, he was silent for a while before he said: "I have always felt that the Fang family came to participate in the imperial wine selection this time, but I am afraid that there will also be their Fang family's own wine king ......!" ”

Chu Huan frowned and said, "You mean ......?" ”

Linlang nodded slightly: "The old owner of Miao Caotang is already a top winemaker, and five years is enough for him to make better wine." Although the Fang family bought Shen Jing last time, they wouldn't expect Shen Jing to come this time, and they weren't sure that the presiding official would be bought by them this time...... So they must have worked on the drink itself! ”

Chu Huan said: "If this is the case, we are afraid that our situation will be a little difficult. If there is a bamboo sake king, no matter what sake king is brewed by other parties, we will not worry, but now that our wine king is gone, according to your estimate, they still have the wine king in their hands......! Speaking of this, I felt more and more that the situation was becoming more serious, and I couldn't help frowning.

Linlang smiled bitterly: "Providence, at this point, I am also dead to this imperial wine selection." She raised her head, looked at the black canopy with beautiful eyes, and said softly: "But I have said a long time ago, no matter ten or twenty years, I will always wait......!" ”

At this time, Han Yuan and Liang Fang Master came over, and Liang Fang Master said pitifully: "Linlang, look...... What do you think we're going to do next? Or...... Why don't my uncle secretly go to find Shen Shaoqing...... The other Fang family used silver to trap us at the beginning, and this time, we ...... Let's also use silver to buy off Shen Shaoqing'......! ”

"Say no more!" Linlang really didn't have a good impression of the owner of Liang Fang, but he just remembered that he was his elder and kept the last bit of face, "Uncle, if you want to use silver to obtain the name of imperial wine, my father did it five years ago." Father only thinks about relying on the strength of the wine itself to win the imperial wine all his life, do you want Linlang to go against his father's last wish? ”

The owner of Liang's face was even more embarrassed, and said, "I'm also ...... for your good!" ”

Linlang didn't wait for him to say more, he had already intercepted the conversation and said, "The matter has come to this point, it seems that it is already very difficult to defeat the Fang family. Uncle, you have worked hard in the winery in the past few years, and the winery is about to close, so I won't keep you. From today onwards, you don't have to go back to the brewery, I'll send you a sum of silver...... You start a small business and live a good life with your aunt......! ”

The owner of Liang Fang frowned and said, "Are you trying to drive me away?" ”

"I didn't chase you away." Linlang shook her head, but her expression was firm: "It won't take long, it's all going to go, it's not a bad thing for you to leave a few days earlier, at least it won't delay your future." ”

The owner of Liang's face was a little ugly, and said: "Linlang, although my uncle has done something wrong, but I still help you wholeheartedly, you can't lose your uncle!" ”

Linlang didn't look at him, but went to the house, and just said lightly: "Naturally, I won't treat my aunt badly!" She also understands what she said that her future care will not be on the face of the owner of Liang, but on the face of her aunt.

Seeing that Linlang didn't look back at him, the owner of Liang Fang looked very cold, knowing that the matter was irreparable, he flicked his sleeves and walked outside the house, and he already shouted: "Chen San, put a carriage on me, I have to leave now, since others don't recognize their relatives and can't tolerate me, I won't be cheeky and send people under the fence." ”

Linlang's footsteps stopped, her delicate body trembled, and she paused, but finally walked resolutely to the main hall.

Chu Huan looked at the back of the Liang Fang Owner leaving, with a strange look in his eyes, he quickly caught up with Linlang, and said softly: "Linlang, I suddenly remembered that there is one more thing to do, and I have to leave now, you rest early, and I will come to see you ...... when I come back!" ”

Linlang said worriedly: "It's so late, you...... Where are you going? Yourself...... Be careful ...... yourself! ”

Chu Huan smiled softly, didn't say much, and when he arrived at the side door, he first took off his armor and handed it to a servant for temporary safekeeping, and then asked the servant to take a piece of cloth cotton, he quickly tore the cloth cotton apart, and quickly wrapped the four hooves of the big black horse with cloth cotton, then turned over and got on the horse, rode out of the side door, bypassed the alley, and went around the alley to the front street, just in time to see the owner of Liang Fang get into the carriage that had just been set, and go forward along the long street, Chu Huan did not hesitate, patted the horse to follow.

The four hooves of the big black horse covered the cloth cotton, and the horse's hooves trampled on the bluestone slabs on the street, but there was no sound.

The night was deep and very dim, and the lights that occasionally emerged from the house along the way were also very dim, Chu Huan and the carriage in front of him were at a distance, neither too close, but not far, but within his control, in the dimness, even if it was dark and he couldn't see the carriage in front of him, he could also judge their location by the sound of the carriage in front of him and the sound of horses' hooves.

After turning a few streets, Chu Huan had been following behind not far away, and when he saw that he had turned a street, the carriage gradually slowed down, Chu Huan also slowed down, and rode to the side of the road, which was dark and difficult to see clearly.

Soon, the carriage stopped, Chu Huan vaguely saw the owner of Liang get out of the carriage in the dimness, and then saw that the owner of Liang seemed to say something to the coachman, and the carriage left by itself, but the owner of Liang looked left and right, and did not see Chu Huan leaning against the corner of the wall, perhaps because he felt that no one was following, so he walked along the street and turned into another street that was quite lively.

Chu Huan followed all the way to that street, turned over and dismounted, but led the horse far behind the owner of Liang, many houses on this street hung lanterns in front of them, and the sound of the piano was heard, the sound of the flute was bursting, and there were more warblers and swallows, and the carriages on the street went back and forth, and there were many pedestrians.

The owner of Liang was very fast, Chu Huan followed behind, and after only a moment, he saw that the owner of Liang had stopped in front of a Fengyue Qinglou, and a bewitching sister with heavy makeup came up, but the owner of Liang was very skillful in hugging left and right, surrounded by two sisters, he entered the building, and looked at his appearance, and seemed to be very familiar with this place.

He spent most of his time in the county seat, and Chu Huan couldn't tell at this time whether he was really familiar with this building, or because he was familiar with Fengyue.

Seeing the owner of Liang Fang enter inside, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Chu Huan's mouth, and he whispered to himself: "The beggar who suddenly appeared shrank back when he encountered something on weekdays, but this time he dared to take the initiative to step forward, and he was still holding the wine king...... If it's not weird, then it's really hell! ”
