Night fell slowly, and the distant camps raised red lanterns one by one. Lin Zhao stood on the attic in the camp, holding a roster of recruits in his hand, but looked at Tianji City, frowned, and was undecided.
"What are you still hesitating about?"
Huang Tingyu sat on the railing, grinning and said: "It's not good to reject the beautiful woman's feelings. Although you didn't nod, I think I should still go to Yunxiang Tower. The time of my teacher is so precious, and it's not good to refuse it."
Those princes and nobles all have to pay tens of thousands of taels of silver for a meal, but now they have declined all social activities and invited you to have a drink, but you have become coquettish."
"Old Huang."
Lin Zhao frowned: "Is this as simple as going to have a drink? It doesn't matter if I have a drink with Shi Hanyin, I don't miss the time. The key is what should I do with people's kindness and how should I refuse it?
Will it appear polite?"
"Why refuse?"
Huang Tingyu grinned: "If it were me, I would take him back to the mountain top and be a bed-warming girl."
"..."
Lin Zhao was speechless. If he did this, it would be a blasphemy against Lin Baiyi in Shi Hanyin's heart. Besides, he would never do this. However, Lao Huang was right about one thing. This trip to Tianji City was still necessary.
…
At night.
Two rays of sword light fell together in Tianji City. At this time, Yun Xiang was upstairs. There were several singers and dancers who were performing their skills. Their figures were graceful. Old Huang's eyes immediately straightened when he saw them, and he said: "You go to join us.
Hanyin, I’ll just have something to eat and drink in the hall, and the money for the drink...should be charged to Shanding Villa."
"knew."
Lin Zhao raised his hand and popped out a flying fish coin.
Huang Tingyu caught the ball with a sullen expression, this is Yun Xianglou, what can one flying fish money do? It's just enough to listen to the music, and even the young lady on the stage might not have a chance to hold her little hand.
Maybe it wouldn't even be enough to eat and drink, and he would have to subsidize some by himself. When he thought of this, Lao Huang felt a little sad. The mountain owner was really stingy.
Second floor.
Under the guidance of two maids, Lin Zhao walked through a wind and rain corridor and arrived at Shi Hanyin's residence. It was a very elegant courtyard. When he pushed the door in, the two maids were placing dishes after dishes of delicacies.
On the table, which was almost full, Shi Hanyin was dressed in a red dress and holding a white jade wine flask in his arms. The aroma of wine in the flask was overflowing. Lin Zhao sniffed his nose and sighed slightly.
It's a bit surprising, and the aroma of wine is so familiar.
"Sir, please sit down."
Shi Hanyin put down the wine bottle, stepped forward to hold Lin Zhao's wrist, and helped him sit down, which made Lin Zhao feel particularly uncomfortable. This treatment was more or less unbearable for him, and he felt a sense of coldness in his heart.
Yan's guilt, even if Ayan didn't see this scene, this scene happened after all.
"Master, there's no need to be so polite."
Lin Zhao took a deep breath and smiled: "You can sit down too."
"Um."
Shi Hanyin smiled, sat next to Lin Zhao, holding a wine bottle in his hand, and said with a smile: "Most of these meals are cooked by Hanyin himself. It would be nice for you to try the taste, sir. Hanyin is here."
, just serve tea and wine to the young master, and the rest of you can go down."
"Yes, miss."
Several maids withdrew one by one.
Lin Zhao was about to get goosebumps. He glanced at Shi Hanyin and saw that the most beautiful lady of the great merchant had clear eyes, and there was no evil look in her eyes. Besides, Shi Hanyin had no cultivation at all, while Lin Zhao was a Yuan Yuan.
Ying Jianxiu expected that she could not do anything to him, so Lin Zhao secretly calmed down, picked up the chopsticks, and took a bite of the bamboo shoots roasted bacon. The taste was quite good, comparable to the ones in Dongzang.
"How does it taste?" Shi Hanyin asked with a smile.
"not bad."
Lin Zhao told the truth.
Shi Hanyin smiled slightly, then poured a glass of wine for Lin Zhao and said, "Master, try what kind of wine this is."
"No need to taste it."
Lin Zhaodao: "You can tell by smelling it, Dongting Zizhu Wine, right?"
"ah?!"
Shi Hanyin was stunned for a moment, his pretty face flushed slightly and he said: "As expected of the young master, it is indeed Zizhu wine."
"This is strange."
Lin Zhaodao: "This Dongting Purple Bamboo Wine can only be brewed by Shang Xuli, Lord of Dongting Lake. After all, Miss Master is not a monk on the mountain. How did you get this Dongting Purple Bamboo Wine?"
"That's a long story."
Shi Hanyin said softly: "Last year, a swordsman passed by Yunzhou and brought this Dongting purple bamboo wine. On that day, Hanyin happened to play pipa music. The swordsman was fascinated by it and wanted to listen to it again.
Once, and the only way to listen to the music is this expensive jar of Zizhu wine. Unfortunately, Hanyin is not good at wine, so this Zizhu wine has been stored in the cellar until today when I met the young master, I took it out."
"Ashamed..."
Lin Zhao nodded and smiled, and said: "Since we are eating together, why don't you, Master, have a drink too?"
"okay."
Shi Hanyin poured himself a glass of wine and clinked the glasses with Lin Zhao. The moment he drank it, he felt the heat became even more intense. His pretty face instantly turned red, and he hurriedly picked up his chopsticks to eat the food to relieve himself.
Lin Zhao saw this and just chuckled. Shi Hanyin was a brothel girl, but she was extremely talented and beautiful, so she was not so mixed up that she had to sell her body. She might not even drink with guests, otherwise it would be impossible for her to even have a drink.
He couldn't bear the purple bamboo wine. Of course, what made Lin Zhao even more emotional was that those mountain sword fairies were really open-minded. In order to win a smile from a beautiful woman, they even dared to give away the purple bamboo wine. Lin Zhao would definitely not be able to do it. The purple bamboo wine is so rare and expensive.
, senior brother, husband, aunt, Miss Lin, and Wang Laodao all don’t have enough to drink, so how can they deliver it out?
…
After the pot of purple bamboo wine bottomed out, Shi Hanyin took out the second pot. Lin Zhao was okay. After all, he often drank with Lao Huang and the others at the mountain top garden, so his drinking capacity was not too bad, but Shi Hanyin was already a little weak.
She was drunk, her beautiful face was flushed, and even her graceful figure was swaying a little, almost leaning on Lin Zhao's arm.
"Teacher girl."
Lin Zhao saw that the situation was not good and said: "If you are too drunk, take a rest early. I will call someone and let them wait for you to rest."
"Wait, sir."
Shi Hanyin suddenly took Lin Zhao's hand, and immediately felt shallow, and hurriedly let go with a flushed face, turned around and walked to the front, and then slowly knelt down in front of Lin Zhao.
"Miss Shi, what are you doing?" Lin Zhao hurriedly stood up and helped her.
"Master!"
Shi Hanyin slowly shook his head and said, "Master, don't speak for now. Just listen to what Hanyin says, okay?"
"..."
Lin Zhao frowned and stood there, a little at a loss.
Shi Hanyin said softly: "Hanyin was originally born in an official family, but his parents were framed and his family fell into ruin. He was even sold into a brothel. Fortunately, his mother appreciated Hanyin's talent and appearance, so he was saved.
Over the past few years, Hanyin has made a lot of money for Yun Xianglou, and has gained the false reputation of being the most beautiful woman in a big business. But Hanyin doesn't want to live like this in this life."
She opened her big eyes and said pitifully: "Hanyin has a fierce temper and doesn't want to live such a life of pleasing others every day. Those young men all talk sweet words, but no one can get into Hanyin's heart. In this case,
Yunxianglou, Hanyin is the most delicate person. Today she is wearing the Xishu brocade given by Mr. Liu. Tomorrow she may be wearing the Furongzhou silk ribbon given by Mr. Li. Today she is wearing the jasper hairpin given by Mr. Chen. Tomorrow she may be wearing the jasper hairpin given by Mr. Chen.
What I am wearing is a warm jade walking stick given by a certain governor. I will laugh when Mr. Wang wants me to laugh, and I will laugh when Mr. Luo wants me to laugh. These days, Hanyin is not interested in her, nor does she like it, Hanyin thought.
Live a real life.”
"Teacher girl."
Lin Zhao frowned: "What exactly do you want to say?"
"Son."
Shi Hanyin looked up at him, with bright eyes like water, and said softly: "Take me away... I want to leave Yunzhou and follow the young master, whether it is a maid or a servant, as long as the young master is willing.
Hanyin is willing to serve you."
With that said, she stood up and took out an exquisite wooden box from the cabinet, knelt in front of Lin Zhao again, opened the wooden box, and saw that it was full of golden mullet money, a lot, she pursed her red lips and said:
"In the afternoon, I asked someone to sell all the gold tickets, treasures, etc. I had accumulated over the years, and got a thousand gold coins. These gold coins can be used to raise food and grass for the young master, and can be used to buy war horses, weapons and armor for the young master.
To resist the demon clan for the young master, as long as the young master nods, Shi Hanyin is willing to follow the young master and will not regret it even if he dies."
"..."
Lin Zhao frowned, he stepped forward, gently helped Shi Hanyin up, clasped his fists and said respectfully: "Lin Zhao, on behalf of everyone in the world, would like to thank Miss Shi for your kindness, but... the snowy Tianchi where Lin Zhao is located is full of swords and shadows, and the demon clan
Go up the mountain at every turn. Before that, Wang Yue had already been taken away by the demon clan. Although the teacher is kind and generous, after all, you have no cultivation at all. In addition, the teacher is the most beautiful woman in Dashang. If you really come with me.
The snowy Tianchi must attract the attention of the demon tribe. In that case, Lin Zhao not only failed to save you from the fire pit, but instead trapped you in a desperate situation, which is a huge crime."
Shi Hanyin's pretty face could not hide her disappointment: "Is it because Hanyin is not good-looking enough, or... the young master doesn't like Hanyin, so..."
"not like this."
Lin Zhaodao: "Since Miss Master has so much gold, she can redeem herself and buy a house, play chess, calligraphy and painting. Wouldn't it be a bad life like that? The Snowy Tianchi is right under the eyes of the four northern tribes. It is a real paradise.
Why bother in such a dangerous place? If something happens, Lin Zhao might not even have time to take care of himself, let alone you."
Shi Hanyin gritted his silver teeth and said, "Master, if Hanyin doesn't want Hanyin, then Hanyin will continue to stay in Yunxianglou and go elsewhere, so what?"
"..."
Lin Zhao sighed, cupped his fists and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Shi..."
…
"well!"
Downstairs, Huang Tingyu listened to the music with one ear, but listened to Shi Hanyin's conversation with the other ear. When he heard Lin Zhao's last words, Huang Tingyu couldn't help but sigh. He was really a fallen flower.
Follow the flowing water, the flowing water is ruthlessly in love with the falling flowers, Lin Zhao is really a piece of wood, what's wrong with Shi Hanyin? Although you, Lin Zhao, are half a scholar, the truth in the world really lies in your scholar's mouth? What a man?
, there is no such thing as having too many wives...
