Shao Sansheng secretly sighed in his heart. The eldest son seemed to be facing a formidable enemy. It seemed that he was really wary of him. He was in the dungeon of the Governor's Mansion, protected by a cloud of experts, but he still felt insecure.
But it’s understandable, no opponent I’ve ever encountered has ever made the eldest son suffer such a big loss!
"Don't worry, Eldest Young Master. As soon as the incident happened, I immediately contacted Miss Su. When Miss Su heard that something happened to the Eldest Young Master, she would definitely come over as soon as possible." Shao Sansheng reassured him again and extended his hand for help, "
Young Master, you will have strength only when you are full."
Hearing that Su Zhao had been notified, Shao Pingbo felt relieved and picked up his chopsticks to enjoy slowly.
However, the slap marks left by Shao Dengyun on the left and right sides of his face are still eye-catching.
Killing my stepmother and two biological brothers, this punishment is already too light and cannot be any lighter...
Under the cover of night, two drunkards walked shoulder to shoulder and walked in vain.
On the way, one person was holding on to the wall, while the other was burping and staggering and asked: "Brother Li, what's the matter? Are you drunk?"
The man supporting the wall lowered his head and waved his hands, "I'm so nervous. Just make it easier. You go first. I know the place and I'll be there soon."
"Ah haha, hurry up then." The other person turned around and left with a drunken smile.
After this person walked away, another drunk man hiding in the corner gradually straightened his waist, tied his belt, walked out of the corner and looked at the figure staggering in the distance. His eyes had regained clarity, and there was no trace of drunkenness at all.
It was Lu Shengzhong in disguise.
He turned around and walked away quickly, disappearing into the darkness. He arrived near the observed destination first, hid in the crown of a tree, and observed from a high position.
Not long after, the drunk man from before staggered over and stopped outside a small courtyard. He banged on the door with his fists and yelled: "Brother Tan, Brother Tan..."
Soon, the door of the small courtyard opened, and a handsome man dressed as a scholar appeared. He was still holding a book in his hand. He was obviously reading.
Seeing a drunk man in front of the door, he was surprised and said: "Brother Tang, why are you so drunk?"
"I've made a new friend. I'll introduce you to him later." The drunkard chuckled, having crossed the threshold and entering uninvited.
"Brother Tang..." The scholar seemed a little helpless. He came to his house drunk like this, which made him speechless.
The scholar walked out and looked outside, but saw no one he had introduced. He shook his head, stepped back, and closed the door.
As soon as there was a knock on the door, Lu Shengzhong, who was peeping from a high position, was already carefully observing the surroundings to see if anyone was hiding around the scholar.
Why are you paying so much attention to this scholar? Just because when Wu Tiannan and Tao Yan'er were discussing poetry and painting, in order to show off that he was no stranger to poetry, he once mentioned something that Shao Pingbo's sister Shao Liu'er once organized a poetry club, and he was also there at the time.
A member of the poetry club.
I accidentally mentioned that in the poetry club, Shao Pingbo’s sister had a good relationship with a man named Tan Yaoxian.
But as soon as I mentioned it, I immediately shut up and refused to say anything no matter how I asked.
Lu Shengzhong had worked as an 'assassin'. He had tried to assassinate Niu Youdao, and he was able to win Niu Youdao's favor. He was obviously an excellent assassin.
As an excellent assassin, he was naturally keenly aware of the deeper meaning in Wu Tiannan's words.
However, at that time, the priority was to complete the primary task assigned by Niu Youdao, and it was not advisable to stir up trouble and scare the snake, so we did not stick to the matter related to Shao Liu'er, but added Tan Yaoxian after Shao Liu'er on Shao Pingbo's character relationship chart.
This time I came back and received another mission. I was studying Shao Pingbo’s character relationship diagram and looking for a target. It was difficult!
So his eyes were fixed on Tan Yaoxian again, ready to find out what was going on with this person and see if he could find any flaws.
Although Niu Youdao said that now was the time when Shao Pingbo was at his weakest, the Beizhou City was under Shao Pingbo's nose after all, so he had to be careful.
Especially when he learned that Shao Pingbo had escaped the disaster, and that he had escaped it with such unimaginable vicious means, he finally realized what Niu Youdao said, that this Shao Pingbo was indeed very dangerous!
As a result, he became more careful.
After finding Tam Yao-Hsien, he had already walked around Tam Yao-Hsien's house and learned that Tam Yao-Hsien lived alone, but he still did not dare to contact him directly.
On the surface, Tan Yaoxian was just an ordinary person. I heard that he was originally a scholar who taught, but he had a good relationship with the governor's daughter. Without knowing the situation, Lu Shengzhong had to be vigilant.
So without touching the core first, he started from the safer periphery. After some secret exploration, he found a friend of Tan Yaoxian, tried to meet him, got acquainted with him, got drunk, and used the drunkenness to fool him.
I found this man and came to see Tam Yaoxian at night.
The purpose of letting this person come to see Tan Yaoxian is naturally not the purpose, but to take the opportunity to observe and see if Tan Yaoxian is really just an ordinary person, and whether there will be any hidden sentries around, especially monks and the like.
Although according to Niu Youdao, Shao Pingbo was weak at this time, and even the drunkard said that Tan Yaoxian was an ordinary person, he still maintained a high degree of caution.
After observing for a while and seeing nothing unusual, Lu Shengzhong felt relieved, slid down from the tree crown, and quietly left under the shadow of the wall.
When he came back, he had already appeared grandly in the alley here, carrying packed wine and food in his hands.
I told the drunk man before that he came right after. He wasted a lot of time by observing him for so long. It was just an excuse to buy wine and food.
Came to Tan's house and knocked on the door.
After a while, the handsome-looking Tan Yaoxian opened the door. When he saw the stranger at the door, he looked suspicious and asked: "Who are you?"
Lu Shengzhong smiled and said: "Is it Brother Tan? In Liji, Brother Tang asked me to come and said he wanted to introduce us to each other."
"Uh..." Tan Yaoxian was stunned. He just heard that person say it casually and thought it was drunken talk. He didn't expect that someone actually came.
The scholar was very polite and quickly bowed his hands in greeting, "So it's Brother Li." He opened the door completely and asked to come in.
He didn't doubt there was anything wrong, and there was nothing worth worrying about in his house.
After people came in, Tan Yaoxian closed the door and warmly invited him to sit in the living room.
Lu Shengzhong observed the person and the environment in the courtyard.
When I entered the hall, I saw that there were almost no redundant furnishings. Some things were more shabby, but they were kept neatly and cleanly. It can be seen that the family belongs to a poor family, and it can also be seen that the owner is a very qualified and particular person, who is poor but has great ambitions.
.
"Huh? Didn't Brother Tang come first? Why don't you see anyone?" Seeing that there was no one in the hall, Lu Shengzhong asked.
Tan Yaoxian smiled bitterly: "As soon as Brother Tang came, he started snoring when he sat down. I had to help him go to the guest room to rest."
Lu Shengzhong said "Yeah" and said he wanted to take a look.
Tan Yaoxian had no choice but to lead him out of the hall and into a simple guest room.
When I entered, I found a man snoring on the couch, covered with an old, patched quilt.
Lu Shengzhong stepped forward and acknowledged the servant, "Brother Tang...Brother Tang..." While pushing and shouting, he quietly tapped the acupuncture points to make it difficult for him to wake up.
"He said he brought me to meet his friends, but he himself fell asleep in the dark. How can that be unreasonable!" Standing next to the couch, unable to wake up when he saw someone shouting, Lu Shengzhong shook his head and sighed.
"Drinking too much." Tan Yaoxian smiled and stretched out his hand to invite Lu Shengzhong to sit back down.
Back in the hall, Lu Shengzhong said polite words and opened the food and wine he had brought. Tan Yaoxian immediately took the dishes and chopsticks from home. Finally, the two sat together and exchanged glasses and introduced each other.
It can be seen that Tan Yaoxian, a white-faced scholar, is very drunk. After a few sips of this not-so-intoxicating wine, his face turned red and he waved his hand to indicate that he could not drink it.
However, after the wine and the meal were warm, he became familiar with the people, so he became less reserved when speaking. Lu Shengzhong tentatively said, "I heard that Brother Tan is good at poetry, and he even joined the poetry club organized by the daughter of the governor Shao?"
Not to mention Shao Liu'er was fine, but when it came to Shao Liu'er, Tan Yaoxian, who had repeatedly expressed his inability to drink, took the initiative to hold the wine jar and pour himself wine, bowl after bowl, pouring himself down in a muffled voice, and soon made himself drunk.
hazy.
Lu Shengzhong's eyes flickered, "Brother Tan, why are you silent?"
Tan Yaoxian burped, waved his hands and said: "Sadly, don't mention it." A sad look appeared on his face.
Lu Shengzhong reached out and grabbed the mouth of the wine jar and took the initiative to pour wine for him, "Did I say something wrong?"
Tan Yaoxian shook his head: "Brother Li misunderstood, the poetry club has been disbanded, it's meaningless to say." After that, he raised his head and drank another bowl.
Lu Shengzhong helped him pour wine again, "How could a good company be disbanded? Could it be that the governor's daughter is unhappy?"
Tan Yaoxian looked up to the sky and sighed, "It has nothing to do with her. In the final analysis, it's just me who is useless..."
As soon as the conversation started, and under the influence of alcohol, he started to talk a little too much.
Lu Shengzhong was surprised when he heard it, and vaguely understood the meaning of the other party's words. This guy seemed to have developed a love affair with Shao Liu'er.
Tan Yaoxian seemed not to want to mention this, but he was obviously drunk and confused and couldn't control his mouth.
How could Lu Shengzhong miss such a good opportunity? Tan Yaoxian bypassed the topic and brought it back again, deliberately irritating him with words. Tan Yaoxian was a scholar who was not familiar with the world, how could he withstand his methods? After a while, the relationship between himself and Shao Liu'er
Everything was tricked out.
The Poetry Club and Shao Liuer met for the first time. They bumped into each other while picking up the same piece of paper that fell on the ground. They looked up at each other. At that time, the two people deeply remembered each other.
They got close to each other unintentionally. Gradually, Tan Yaoxian fell in love with Shao Liuer, but he thought that his family background was not worthy of her, so he kept it secret in his heart and did not dare to reveal his true feelings. Who knew that Shao Liuer was bolder than him, and one time he took the lead in breaking the window paper
, confided his heart and asked him what he meant.
Tan Yao couldn't control his feelings and confessed his feelings.
Relatively speaking, Tan Yaoxian is relatively free, while Shao Liuer's family is tighter, so the two can only meet through poetry club gatherings.
When they met, the most outrageous thing the two did was shyly and secretly hold hands. They had no chance to do anything too outrageous. The main reason was that Tan Yaoxian was more pedantic and polite, while Shao Liuer was more afraid of his own powerful person.
, the big brother who can decide life or death with just one word.
Later, Tan Yaoxian couldn't bear the pain of lovesickness, so he told Shao Liu'er that he was going to propose marriage to Shao's family regardless of his own ability.
Shao Liu'er was shocked. She knew a little about what kind of person her brother was, so she asked Tan Yaoxian to wait, saying that she was looking for a chance to convince his family.
As a result, instead of waiting for Shao Liuer's persuasion, the poetry club was disbanded, and she never saw Shao Liuer again after that.
From what Shao Liuer said, it was her elder brother Shao Pingbo who objected, and Shao Pingbo seemed to already know about her relationship with him.
Speaking of this, Lu Shengzhong was surprised, "Brother Tan, haven't you never seen Miss Shao again? How did you hear Miss Shao talk about it? Could it be that we met again later?"
