A lone light hangs in the sky, there are fireflies and stars, and the wind rustles.
The summer nights in the mountains are extremely pleasant, not even a bit hot, and only cool.
Zheng Wuji filled the wine glass, held it in his hands and said to Mr. Wu: "The student deeply appreciates the kindness of Mr. Wu's teachings, which has opened my eyesight. I have benefited a lot, and I will always admire him."
"A high-ranking official is too humble and too generous." Mr. Wu laughed and said, "First of all, you are by no means a piece of dead wood. In my opinion, you should be a piece of uncarved jade. Secondly, I am just a little bit.
How can you claim such great credit for your advice? I really don’t dare to take it, I don’t dare to take it.”
"Sir, you are too humble. You have been as kind to me as my parents. I will treat you as a respected relative as long as I live. I can't say enough. I will drink this cup full of you, sir." Zheng Wuji, a boy with a sweet mouth.
In order to get Mr. Wu to drink more, he showered him with flattery.
When Mr. Wu finished his glass, he immediately filled up another glass.
At this time, the doors and windows were wide open, and they were on the high pavilion again. The mountain breeze was strong and the moon was like water. It really made people broaden their minds and made them drunk.
Mr. Wu drank happily, opened his clothes, tapped the wine glass with his chopsticks and said, "You don't know, I was as dissolute and wanton as you when I was young. Because my father was a gentry, I used to carry bullets and fly eagles every day.
Sleeping willow and sleeping flowers.
I often don't enter the house for three to five months, and the money I spend is like running water.
I never wanted to make a bad friend. That person was my friend who grew up with me, but he plotted against me and tricked me into losing all my family property.
My father was furious to death, and my wife was taken back to her parents' home.
Then that person drove me out of the county and refused to allow me to live in my hometown.
I wandered and begged all the way, and almost died several times.
I knew that my bad conduct had brought me disaster. After seeking refuge with my relatives, I began to study hard.
I was twenty-five years old that year, and it took me ten years to pass the Jinshi examination. Only then was I released to the county magistrate where I was from, and I avenged my original revenge.
After I took my revenge, I felt that being an official was too tiring. I quit my job and traveled around. When I ran out of money, I just sat in office. If I have a skill, I can rely on it until I grow old."
"It turns out that sir has had such an unusual experience," Zheng Wuji said sincerely, but still did not forget to persuade him to drink. "It's really surprising and admirable."
What he was thinking was that he no longer wanted to gamble, but he just didn’t want to waste his life studying.
What's more, Xu Chunjun, a wife who is smarter than a monkey, would find it difficult for others to defraud him of his family property.
Therefore, Mr. Wu's story did not really move him.
He still wants to go back and have a baby with Xu Chunjun.
It's already June, and it won't be long before Xu Chunjun's period of mourning for her stepmother expires.
Zheng Wuji tried every means to get Mr. Wu to drink, but he didn't drink a few drinks himself.
Mr. Wu is also a good drinker. These days he only drinks here every now and then, and since he started drinking to enjoy himself, he has never drank openly.
Today was the end of the fast. Under Zheng Wuji's instigation, he recited poems and composed poems. Finally, he drank all the wine and fell asleep.
Zheng Wuji saw Mr. Wu sleeping deeply, and then he stood up quietly.
He spent a lot of time today. Mr. Wu had the habit of taking a nap, so he deliberately asked questions after lunch, causing Mr. Wu to be unable to sleep.
In the evening, he proposed drinking wine and admiring the moon, which made Mr. Wu drunk.
He chose today because everything else was already prepared.
Moreover, the moon was full tonight, which could illuminate the mountain road clearly. Otherwise, it would be pitch dark, and he would either not be able to run far or fall off the cliff, giving him little chance of winning.
He took out the package he had prepared a long time ago, and inside it was a large package of dried meat and dry food, which he had saved from his daily routine.
There was also a robe. He couldn't wear it too cumbersome if he wanted to go down, so he only wore a middle coat.
The knotted rope was strong and long enough, but it still required strength in his limbs. In the past few months, he had been exercising with Mr. Wu, and the effect was pretty good.
He tied the rope to the pillar, and with the help of his arms and legs, Zheng Wuji climbed down.
During this period, he almost missed a few times and was so frightened that he broke into cold sweats several times.
Finally, about three feet above the ground, the rope broke with a "boom".
Zheng Wuji fell hard to the ground and felt that all his internal organs were displaced.
I lay down for a long time before I got up, and then I was afraid and said, "Thank you, I might have been crippled."
He tied the package again, looked around, and then took off running towards the northeast.
He didn't have to worry about making any noise, because the mute servant below couldn't hear him at all.
He couldn't help but think of what was said in the book: "Misfortune lies where blessings depend, and fortune lies where misfortune lies." Bad things can be turned into good things.
Mr. Wu slept until midnight and was very thirsty.
When I opened my eyes, I saw that the shadow of the moon was already pointing to the west.
I thought to myself that I had really drank too much, and I couldn't do this again.
He got up and poured himself a cup of herbal tea, thinking about asking Zheng Wuji if he was thirsty.
Who would have thought that when I looked over there, I couldn't find Zheng Wuji!
Mr. Wu thought he was too drunk to sleep on the bed, so he lit a lamp and searched the place.
Zheng Wuji was nowhere to be seen.
Mr. Wu was really panicked and quickly opened the mechanism. A wooden ladder creaked and fell down, slowly touching the ground.
It's not really volleying here, the ladder is usually not placed just to prevent Zheng Wuji from running around.
But Xu Chunjun also considered that there was an emergency, so he set up a hidden ladder.
Mr. Wu came down and saw a ball of rope falling on the ground, and he immediately understood how Zheng Wuji ran away.
He picked up the rope and cursed: "You little bastard! You ran away after all!"
He didn't care that he would have a mute servant, so he hid the secret ladder back.
Guessing that Zheng Wuji had returned to Beijing, he also chased him in the northeast direction.
The moonlight is like frost, covering the earth. Time passes and the night becomes deeper.
I don't know how much time passed, but a group of people sneaked closer.
"That mute has already been punished. Let's set a fire again. It won't reach the sky or touch the ground. Let's wait and be burned to death!" These people were all dressed in black, and their faces could not be seen clearly in the night.
"The feeling of being burned to death is too unpleasant. I guess they will probably jump down." A person with a voice like a rough tile said.
"It's so high. If you jump down, you'll be half dead. Let's make up for it with two more cuts." One person said with a bad smile.
"You idiot! You said you couldn't let anyone see it, but you're trying to fix your mother's problem!" Zhuang Wa cursed in a low voice, "Wouldn't that expose the secret?!"
"Then what should we do?" The scolded one said submissively.
"Of course he will throw it into the fire! The mute's body will be brought over soon! People will think that he was burned to death by putting out the fire."
"Hehe, this is a good idea! Boss, you are almost catching up with Zhuge Liang!"
"Come on, this is what the third lady told me, it was not my idea."
"Such a big wooden building is enough to burn them to ashes, even if there is something wrong, you can't tell. The third lady is really smart!"
Kerosene was poured on the wood, and with a flash of fire, a raging fire immediately broke out.
The wind helped the fire, and soon the entire library was ablaze.
