Chapter 1798: Strange Men and Strange Persons

Chu Huan looked at the man, only to see that the man was dressed in a long robe, and he looked in his forties, but he was unkempt and a little sloppy.

Huang Lan frowned, glanced at Chu Huan, and saw that Chu Huan's expression was calm, and said loudly: "Come on, send Mr. Ximen back to rest first!" Two servants came from the side, and they were about to help the man, but the man pushed him away, but he still carried a flask in his hand, and staggered into the hall.

Tonight's night banquet, although Chu Huan did not let Xu Shao and the others go to the banquet together, but there were still some escort warriors around him, outside the door of the hall, there were warrior guards, that person wanted to go to the hall, a guard was going to stop him, Chu Huan coughed deeply, the guards immediately retreated to the side, the man shook into the hall, everyone in the hall had different colors, most of them showed disgust.

"Mr. Simon, you're drunk." Huang Lan seemed to be pressing her temperament, but her tone was also calm: "Go home and rest first, do you think it's okay?" ”

The man laughed, raised his hand and stretched out a finger, and nodded at Huang Lan, hehe, a strange laugh, and then clicked more than a dozen times inside and out, even Chu Huan also clicked, everyone frowned, but they heard Mr. Simon laugh and said: "It's lively, true and false, up and down, and it's glamorous!" ”

"Simon madman, what do you mean by that?" One person in the hall stood up and said sharply: "You are crazy elsewhere, no one stops you, what is the occasion today, how can you be presumptuous here?" ”

Mr. Simon did not laugh angrily, but said leisurely: "After the rain, the wind is like a dream, and the sky and the earth are dark night." Nanshan also does not appear, and does not hear the song of fisherman. There was another strange laugh, many people shook their heads, and some people whispered: "When I saw him perfunctory today, I knew that if I wanted to make a mess, I shouldn't let this madman enter the door." ”

When Mr. Simon heard the man's voice, he immediately turned his head, and his mouth was a little vague, and asked, "What did you say?" ”

The man was stunned, and was targeted by Mr. Simon, his expression looked a little embarrassed, and when he saw Mr. Simon walking towards him step by step, this person's face was a little flustered, and he smiled reluctantly: "Mr. Simon!" ”

Chu Huan was silent at this time, carrying his hands behind his back, watching quietly with interest.

Mr. Simon approached, stared at the man, and suddenly shook his head and said, "Praise the virtues, I don't know what to say!" Suddenly, he raised his hand and struck it on the top of the man's head.

The man was caught off guard, and was hit in the head by Mr. Simon, "ouch", and then shouted urgently: "Simon Simon Yi, what are you doing?" ”

But Mr. Simon laughed, didn't say much, turned and left.

Everyone watched Mr. Simon leave, and waited until his figure disappeared, and then there was a burst of discussions, and naturally there was no good word for Mr. Simon.

When Huang Lan saw Mr. Ximen leaving, she was a little embarrassed and smiled: "Chu Du, this is really rude." This person was not invited, but he took the initiative to come to the door, but it was not easy to drive him away. ”

Chu Huan had already sat down at this time, and said with a smile: "Since this Mr. Simon can sit at the door, he must not be an ordinary person, but how can he have such a temper?" ”

"Chu Du, this person is an incomparably arrogant madman." A person next to him said: "His name is Ximen Yi, but everyone calls him Ximen crazy, hey, the Ximen family was the first family in Tongzhou, I didn't expect that there would be such an unscrupulous child, corrupt the family, you see, the Ximen family is now poor and white, not all of them are the sins of this man!" ”

Immediately, there was a person who said: "You can't say that, Ximen Yi really insulted his ancestors, but we have one thing to say and two to say, although he spends all his time drinking and has no one in his eyes, but he is not a bad person." His family wealth is not all ruined by spending time and drinking, and everyone knows this in their hearts, but they can't say the same about him. ”

When Chu Huan heard this, he was very curious in his heart, and asked with a smile: "It seems that this Mr. Simon is quite legendary. Asked Huang Lan: "Master Huang, what's going on?" ”

Huang Lan hesitated for a moment, and finally said softly: "Chu Du doesn't know, counting the first six generations of Ximen Yi, he began to settle in Tongzhou. At that time, his ancestors were officials in the previous dynasty, came to Tongzhou, and then took root in Tongzhou, to Ximen Yi's father's generation, in the former dynasty as an official, this Ximen family used to be a real famous family in Tongzhou, but also won the hearts of the people, several generations are clean officials and honest officials, to his father Ximen Shu, the previous dynasty perished, Tongzhou fell into war! After a pause, seeing that Chu Huan listened very carefully, he continued: "Ximen Shu took in refugees and asked for his own wealth to help the people, we all thanked him for his character, and we all obeyed his arrangement. ”

"Oh?" Chu Huan bowed slightly: "In this way, the Ximen family is a good family that accumulates virtue and does good. ”

"That's true." Huang Lan sighed: "I know that today, when it comes to the ancestors of the Ximen family, we are all in awe in our hearts, but this Ximen Yi really does not have the virtue of his ancestors." Shaking his head and saying with a wry smile: "When Ximen Yi was young, he was smart and clever, he not only remembered, read poetry and books, but also often made amazing remarks, at that time many people felt that Ximen Yi must be able to make a great difference." ”

"That's true." There was a humane on the side: "Ximen Yi was called a prodigy when he was a child, and some people even think that he can enter and exit the general in the future, but now it seems that it is just a joke, the prodigy back then is just a psychopathy now!" ”

Huang Lan nodded and said: "When Ximen Yi was young, he once left Tongzhou and traveled around, when he was in his early twenties, he was supposed to take the exam and seek a way out, but this person is good, every time he takes a scientific examination, he suddenly disappears, and he has not participated in the scientific examination for several years, and he has no fame." ”

Chu Huan was puzzled: "How can a scholar take scientific research as a major event in his life?" ”

"So he's a madman." Huang Lan sighed: "He not only does not do scientific research, but likes to linger in the place of fireworks, when he was young, as long as he is missing, seven or eight out of ten are in the green building, this person is a scholar, but he does not intersect with literati, occasionally appear in the academy, he likes to speak wildly, ridicule others, and then no one wants to associate with him, he became a loner." ”

Chu Huan bowed slightly, and Huang Lan continued: "But if this person's character is corrupt, it is not the case. After he inherited the Ximen family, he held the huge industry of the Ximen family, and indulged in sensuality, so no one could persuade him, but every time there was a major drought in Tongzhou, he was generous, and he was very generous, and he had only two brick houses and a few acres of thin fields left, so as to survive! ”

Chu Huan was surprised: "Could it be that his family wealth is all donated?" ”

Everyone looked at each other, and Huang Lan said, "Except for some that he himself lost, most of them were really donated." He is now in his early forties, but he is a single person, and he has not even married a wife, and he has three unfilial pieties, and he has no queen. ”

Chu Huan smiled: "This is a strange person. ”

Everyone looked at each other, and Huang Lan had already smiled and said, "Chu Du, let's not mention him." Yes, you mentioned Juntian earlier, I don't know Chu Du! ”

Chu Huan had already waved his hand and said with a smile: "That's it, this governor drank a few more cups today, and his head was a little dizzy, so I won't mention this matter today, and I'll talk about it later." Glancing at everyone, he said: "It's getting late, and the governor still has trivial matters to deal with. ”

Everyone said yes, but Chu Huan had already gotten up and said: "That's the case, this governor will leave first, you continue, don't worry about me!" ”

The gentry were suddenly a little disappointed in their hearts, inviting Chu Huan to come today, firstly, it was naturally a good relationship, but secondly, they wanted to hear some of Tongzhou's next political policies from Chu Huan's mouth.

Huang Lan and others sent Chu Huan to the door, a team of soldiers outside the door was waiting, Chu Huan said a few words, someone had already brought the Thunder Fire Qilin over, Chu Huan turned over and got on the horse, and under the protection of the guards, bid farewell to everyone and went to the Zhizhou Mansion.

When I walked out of the long street and turned into another street, I heard the singing from the side of the street, and the singing was not very good, but the lyrics had a unique charm.

"Walking on the song and looking at the east of the long river, the east of the long river is horizontal. Thousands of miles of surging white waves, thousands of miles of mighty wind. The rippling jade cup made waves, but the center of the chest was difficult to settle. Jiang Shang hooked the Weishui shore until the flying bear fell into a dream! ”

Chu Huan followed the sound and looked over, only to see that at the root of the wall on the side of the street, a person was lying on the side, carrying a wine jug in his hand, chanting and drinking at the same time, just looking at the clothes on the person, Chu Huan recognized at a glance that this person was Ximen Yi who had left before.

"Jiang Shang hooked the Weishui shore until the flying bear fell into a deep dream!" Chu Huan chanted loudly before he smiled: "But I don't know who Jiang Shang is, and where is King Wen?" ”

Ximen Yi was still lying on the ground, and he didn't look at Chu Huan, but said: "Without King Wen, there will be no Jiang Shang, and with King Wen, he will have to find Jiang Shang by himself!" ”

Chu Huan laughed and said, "The wine in the jug seems to have been drunk, why do you still have to carry the jug?" ”

"Jiang Shang has no bait on the hook, why do you still fish?"

Chu Huan turned over and dismounted, stepped forward, and said, "Jiang still has no bait hook, just to catch the emperor, Mr. empty pot, but the governor is puzzled." ”

Ximen Yi turned over, lay down on his side with his back to Chu Huan, and did not speak.

"I've got a few jars of good wine over there." Chu Huan smiled and said, "Sir, if you want, I don't know if you can go and have a few drinks together?" Although the singing is good, if there are people who do not know the cause, it cannot be called a good song, and if a good wine is not tasted by people who understand wine, it cannot be called a good wine. ”

Ximen Yi turned over and sat up, his hair was messy, staring at Chu Huan, and he didn't speak, Chu Huan and Ximen Yi looked at each other and chuckled: "Mr. thinks I'm going to issue a Juntian Decree on the banquet, so I get drunk to stop it?" ”R1058
