Chapter 171 A song dedicated to Zhou Gongjin (two-in-one chapter)
Pizza Day is coming to an end, and Li Qi's Romance of the Three Kingdoms will also usher in a big event, which is the Battle of Red Cliff.
The Confucian scholars in front were chatting with each other, using counter-intuitive tactics, borrowing arrows from a straw boat, and plotting with bitter meat, and Zhuge Liang was borrowing the east wind. Everyone was so mesmerized when they heard this.
However, all this is paving the way for the Battle of Chibi.
No one wants to miss this exciting episode.
Today, there was no guard at Zuixianju yet, but people were already standing at the door, chatting non-stop. Naturally, everyone was talking about the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
It seems that the real history has been gradually forgotten by them, replaced by the Romance of the Three Kingdoms that Li Qi plagiarized.
Hong Tianjiu did not come wearing armor today. After all, it was too heavy and uncomfortable to wear. However, Gao Yanei still dressed like Zhuge Liang, with a white feather fan swaying gently, and six or seven idle men standing beside him.
Coupled with the natural lewd smile at the corner of his mouth, he is definitely a bully who bullies the people.
Yesterday, when Li Qi told Zhuge Liang's story about borrowing the east wind, he was almost dumbfounded. His admiration for Zhuge Liang had reached a blind level. If Song Yuchen dared to say anything wrong about Zhuge Liang, he would really rush to find him.
Song Yuchen worked hard.
As soon as Zuixianju opened the door, people poured in like a flood. In an instant, the place was already filled with water. The bartender of Zuixianju almost squeezed the guests into the kitchen.
Guests ask for wine and pizza by yelling, and then the bartender takes out the wine from the kitchen and relies on the guests to pass it to each other to reach the final destination.
Of course, some people take advantage of the troubled waters.
"Damn it. Why is there only half a piece of my pizza?"
"It doesn't make sense. Who secretly drank my wine?"
"What do you mean by giving me an empty plate?"
...
But no matter how they shouted, Wu Furong always hid in the counter and refused to come out. He knew that if he came out, he would never be able to go back. In his heart, he could only pray that Li Qi would come soon.
On the other end, Li Qi was still flirting with Bai Qiannuo and the others, feeling very happy.
It was almost noon before Li Qi, Mrs. Qin, and Bai Qiannuo came out of the Qin Mansion. The envious look in Ji Hongnu's eyes behind him made Li Qi feel a little guilty.
As soon as they arrived at Bianhe Street, Bai Qiannuo and Mrs. Qin had a tacit understanding and distanced themselves from Li Qi. They chose a path and went directly to the backyard of Zuixianju.
Li Qi thought at first that Mrs. Qin was still angry with him.
But when he came to Zuixianju, he immediately understood why Mrs. Qin and Bai Qiannuo wanted to distance themselves from him.
"Wow! There are so many people!"
Li Qi came to the door and saw two people standing on stools at the door. He couldn't help but scream in surprise.
"Master Li is here, Master Li is here."
Li Qi's exclamation immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Hurry up and catch him, don't let him run away."
Suddenly an extremely arrogant shout came from the innermost place.
It was Gao Yanei's voice.
Why am I running? I haven't broken any laws.
Just when Li Qi was puzzled, a group of guests came over.
Depend on!
"What do you want to do?"
Li Qi was so frightened that he took a step back when he was stopped by others.
"Ouch, what are you doing?---Let go of me, ouch, my hand will break if you pull it any longer. My clothes, my clothes, are all gone.---Oh my god! Who the fuck is grabbing my chest?
Stop here if you can."
After a commotion, Li Qi was already standing in front of the table on the second floor before he could react.
"What happened?"
Li Qi shook his head from side to side, crossed his arms and looked at the crowd with extreme fear.
"Master Li, please don't go to the kitchen now, and hurry up and start reading. We've been waiting all morning."
"Three Kingdoms, Three Kingdoms."
Gao Yanei raised his arms and shouted loudly.
Everyone responded one after another.
Damn! It turned out that you wanted me to tell the story earlier, so there was no need to be so barbaric.
Li Qi finally reacted, stabilized his body, and straightened the long gown that had been stretched several times wider. He thought that a good piece of clothing would be ruined by you. He glanced at everyone with an angry look, and saw that they all had a look on their faces.
Looking at himself expectantly, he rolled his eyes and suddenly said loudly: "Don't worry, everyone. Before I tell the story, I want to play a little game with you."
Hong Tianjiu got excited and asked curiously: "What kind of game?"
Li Qi smiled slightly and said, "Please take out something from your arms or sleeves first."
Everyone was puzzled, but they all followed Li Qi's instructions and took out some items from their bodies.
When Li Qi saw that everyone was ready, he coughed lightly, suddenly slapped the tree and said: "I'm not in a good state today, so it's the same old saying. If you want to know the details, please listen to the next chapter."
Blah blah blah.
Bang bang bang.
Dong Dong Dong Dong.
As soon as he finished speaking, countless copper coins and paper balls flew towards Li Qi.
Li Qi was also prepared. As soon as he finished speaking, he hid under the table and escaped this unexpected disaster.
After a burst of noise, Li Qi stood up quickly. Before anyone could scold him, he hurriedly slapped the tree to wake him up and said: "Speaking of which, Zhou Yu sent generals Ding Feng and Xu Sheng to capture Zhuge Liang, but when they came to borrow the wind,
By that time, Zhuge Liang had long disappeared."
When everyone heard that he started telling stories again, they hurriedly stopped the curse words on their lips and listened attentively.
Silence returned to the hall.
Li Qi slapped Xingmu again and said: "At this moment---." He paused, glanced at the female bartenders around him, and kept scanning the ground.
The female bartenders were stunned for a moment as soon as they opened the door. They followed Li Qi's gaze and looked down at the ground. At the same time, they gasped and saw that Li Qi was surrounded by copper coins and banknotes. They immediately understood and squatted down to sneak around.
picked up the money.
This scene happened to be seen by Bai Qiannuo, who was standing on the third floor, and she immediately covered her lips and giggled.
After getting back the money for the clothes, Li Qi began to tell the story seriously. "You guys, where is Zhuge Liang at this time?"
"Did it fly away?" Gao Yanei asked in surprise.
Sweat! Do you have any culture? You flew away? You can't imagine that.
Li Qi shook his head and said: "It turns out that Zhuge Liang had already expected that Zhou Yu would not let him go, so he had already made arrangements for Zilong to come to meet him at this time. By the time Ding Feng and Xu Sheng arrived, Zhuge Liang was already on the boat.
....”
There was a burst of applause immediately. When Li Qi mentioned earlier that Zhou Yu sent people to arrest Zhuge Liang, they all felt a cold sweat for Zhuge Liang. Even Song Yuchen, who was well versed in the history of the Three Kingdoms, and other talented people were also caught up in the drama.
Next, Li Qi used his impeccable tongue to vividly describe the magnificent scene of the Battle of Red Cliff in words.
After hearing this, the guests also shouted with joy and were in awe.
Applause and cheers came and went.
Li Qi originally wanted to finish talking about the series of burning boats and stop there, but due to everyone's pleading, he had to talk about Huarong Tao for one more paragraph.
It was okay not to talk about it, but when everyone heard that Guan Yu let Cao Cao go, they started arguing again.
"What happened to Mr. Guan? Why did he become so stupid all of a sudden? I, Sage Zhuge, believe in him so much. How could he just let Cao Cao go? Li Qi, what you said in this paragraph is too bad.
."
As a fan of Zhuge Liang, Gao Yanei kept shaking his head, complaining that Guan Yu had betrayed Zhuge Liang's trust.
"I think what Master Li said is very good. Cao Cao was kind to him. How could he repay kindness with enmity." Song Yuchen said indifferently.
"Hey! I'm talking about Song Yuchen, why do you always go against this Yanei?" Gao Yanei said angrily.
Song Yuchen smiled faintly and said: "I didn't mean to go against the Yamen, I just discussed the matter." But there was a hint of disdain in his tone.
Hong Tianjiu said with a smile: "Don't you always say that a gentleman should keep his word? Since Mr. Guan Er promised to Zhuge Military Advisor that he must capture Cao Cao, then by doing this, wouldn't he be breaking his promise?
Human beings too.”
"this---."
Song Yuchen was speechless for a moment when Hong Tianjiu retorted.
Indeed, if Guan Yu lets Cao Cao go, he is breaking his promise; if he does not let him go, he is repaying kindness with enmity. Both of these are taboos for a gentleman.
Song Yuchen, who was speechless, could only look at Li Qi asking for help twice, as if to say, you made up this story, so you are naturally responsible.
You idiot! You don't have any ideas, why don't you act like a hero?
Li Qi coughed and said: "Yamen, Xiaojiu, Mr. Song, please don't argue for now. Please listen to me."
"That's fine. You were the one who made up this story. You should give me an explanation." Gao Yanei nodded.
Li Qi shook his head and said deceitfully: "Actually, both of you are right. Regardless of whether Guan Yu killed Cao Cao or not, it was still wrong. But how to choose depends entirely on one's personality. The most talked about person is Guan Erye.
What is it, is his righteous and righteous personality. If not, how could he become brothers with Liu Bei and Zhang Fei? How could he have reached this point? Then Lu Bu is the best negative teaching material."
Song Yuchen nodded hurriedly and said: "What Master Li said is true, that's what I think below."
Damn! You are too shameless.
Li Qi deeply despised Song Yuchen.
When Gao Yanei heard what Li Qi said, he also agreed, nodded and said: "What you said makes sense. What I admire most about Mr. Guan is his righteousness. Tsk tsk, just like this Yanei.
"
As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help laughing.
There is no most shameless one, only more shameless ones.
Hong Tianjiu snickered twice, and then asked curiously: "Brother Li, how will Master Guan explain it to Military Advisor Zhuge when he returns?"
"Yes, yes, what's next?" Gao Yanei nodded, because he also knew that there would definitely be a scene involving Zhuge Liang later.
"Next---."
As soon as Li Qi slapped Xingmu, before the words came out, he heard everyone say in unison: "If you want to know the details, please listen to the next chapter."
The tone was full of depression.
Li Qi was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said: "Since everyone knows, I won't say more. Okay, I'll be here at noon. Let's talk about it in the evening."
After everyone dispersed, Li Qi turned around in the kitchen and saw Wu Xiaoliu and others chatting about the Battle of Chibi. He was so angry that these guys dared to come outside even if they didn't do anything.
After listening to the story, I grabbed a few people and scolded them.
Naturally, Wu Xiaoliu and the others did not dare to talk back, so they tried to win over this man and looked like they had changed their ways.
After coming out of the kitchen, Li Qi planned to go to the lounge to rest. As soon as he arrived in the backyard, someone suddenly patted him from behind. He turned around and saw that it was Bai Qiannuo. He smiled and said, "Qiniang, you've been here for a long time.
,Huh? Isn’t Madam with you?"
Bai Qiannuo chuckled and said, "Madam has returned to the Qin Mansion."
"This lady always likes to be late and leave early." Li Qi complained.
Bai Qiannuo curled her lips and asked, "By the way, Brother Li, if you were that Guan Yunchang, what would you do?"
"What do you think I would do?" Li Qi asked.
Bai Qiannuo raised his head and thought for a while, then said: "I said you would never show up in Huarong Road at all. When Zhuge Military Advisor sent troops to set up formations, you would hide aside and say nothing, let alone come forward to ask for orders.
."
Li Qi was stunned and sighed. "Qiniang, it seems that I will never be able to escape from your grasp in this life."
Bai Qiannuo blushed and said, "You are talking nonsense here again. It's because I can't escape from your grasp."
"It's all the same, it's all the same." Li Qi chuckled.
Bai Qiannuo rolled her eyes at him and said, "You should go and rest quickly. You are tired after talking for so long."
Li Qi chuckled and said, "How about we do it together."
When Bai Qiannuo heard this, she blushed, glared at him, and turned around and left without saying a word.
night.
The number of customers continues to increase.
After Red Cliff, of course it's "Three Qi Zhou Yu". This is undoubtedly a tear-jerking scene. Although Master Luo devalued Zhou Yu as a narrow-minded person in order to create a positive image of Zhuge Liang, Li Qi believed that such a
Men are more attractive. After all, Zhou Yu in history was so perfect that perfection makes people feel a little fake. He was handsome, could lead troops in war, and was proficient in chess, calligraphy, and painting. The most irritating thing
Yes, he also has a beautiful wife at home. This kind of man is simply the anger of both humans and gods.
When Li Qi said that before Zhou Yu died, he was full of reluctance and used his last breath to shout out the phrase "Since Yu is born, why is Liang born?", apart from Gao Yanei, a loyal fan of Zhuge Liang, he was also there to applaud.
, the rest of them all shed tears, and several female bartenders even covered their faces and started sobbing.
These six simple words express the feelings of many people.
It also adds a sense of sadness to Zhou Yu in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Just when everyone was feeling sorry for this genius, they suddenly heard a "boom" from the third floor.
Suddenly, I heard a heavenly voice slowly coming down from the third floor.
"The lights of swords and shadows have dimmed. The clanking of drums and horns has faded away. Fresh faces are flying in front of my eyes. The ancient roads of Huangchen have been obliterated. The beacon border town has been deserted. Time. You can't take away those strings of familiar names...
....
Who determines the rise and fall? There is no basis for rise and fall. You are responsible for what happened before you were alive. How can you comment after your death..."
This song comes at just the right time, echoing Zhou Yu's sadness and adding even more icing on the cake to this story.
The song is over.
There was silence in the hall.
Standing on the second floor, Li Qi was even dumbfounded, and his eyes had begun to glow a little. He knew this song very well. It was the ending theme of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Apart from him, there was only Ji Hongnu in the world today.
He can sing, and he is very familiar with Ji Hongnu's heavenly voice.
Needless to say, the singer must be Ji Hongnu.
But Li Qi could never figure out why Ji Hongnu's singing suddenly appeared in Zuixianju.
After a while, the crowd suddenly burst into loud cheers.
One wave is high and the other wave is high, and it lasts for a long time.
This is definitely the biggest ** in Zuixianju today.
"Red Lady."
Gao Yanei suddenly roared and rushed upstairs.
Hong Tianjiu also reacted and followed him excitedly.
Li Qi was startled suddenly and wanted to stop him, but Gao Yanei had already rushed forward, complaining in his heart, and hurriedly followed him.
Gao Yanei came to the world box in search of the song. He opened the door suddenly and saw four people inside. Mrs. Qin and Bai Qiannuo were sitting at the table. There was also a maid and a fair-skinned man dressed as a bartender.
The boys with their heads lowered stood behind Bai Qiannuo and Mrs. Qin respectively.
Gao Yanei glanced around and saw no woman like the one Li Qi described. He hurriedly asked: "Madam, the one who sang just now was the Red Lady."
Mrs. Qin frowned slightly and said, "So what?"
"Then where is he now?" Gao Yanei was so anxious that he almost jumped up.
Bai Qiannuo suddenly said: "The Red Lady left after singing."
"gone."
Gao Yanei was stunned and said to Xiao Jiu: "Did you just see a woman?"
Hong Tianjiu was confused, shook his head and said: "I didn't pay attention." He was stunned just now, how could he pay so much attention.
"Chase."
Gao Yanei simply dropped a word and hurried downstairs.
Hong Tianjiu and a few idle men also followed.
As soon as they left, Li Qi walked in with an angry look on his face.
The boy who had been standing in the corner saw Li Qi coming. He raised his head and said with a scared look on his face: "Brother Li, I'm sorry. I---."
This boy is none other than Ji Hongnu.
"Hongnu, don't be afraid."
Mrs. Qin said and said to Li Qi: "Li Qi, don't blame Hong Nu, I brought her here."
Li Qi snorted coldly and said in a deep voice: "I will settle this account with you later. Hong slave, please leave immediately through the back door. I will ask someone to pick you up."
"Why? They've all left the office. What are you worried about?" Bai Qiannuo asked in surprise.
"Qiniang, you can hide this little trick from Gao Yanei, but that kid Xiaojiu is very clever. I won't see him for long before he wakes up. He doesn't know any bartender in Zuixianju, and you two are in
How can a man stand here?"
Li Qi said, and then said to Ji Hongnu: "Hongnu, why don't you leave quickly."
"oh."
Ji Hongnu nodded and walked quickly outside.
"I'll go with you."
Mrs. Qin stood up. Just as she was about to go out with Ji Hongnu, she was suddenly stopped by Li Qi, saying: "Madam, you can't go with her. If you go out, you will only attract other people's attention."
Then he picked up a tray and handed it to Ji Hongnu, saying: "Take this and go down, remember to take the back door."
Ji Hongnu had never seen Li Qi with such a look on his face. He dared not say anything more. He took the tray and hurried out.
Li Qi said to Xiao Tao again: "Xiao Tao, go down immediately and ask the two bartenders to go to the back door to pick up the red slave."
Xiaotao responded and went out.
Sure enough, not long after Ji Hongnu left, Gao Yanei and the others turned back. Seeing that the boy had disappeared, they screamed that they had been deceived, but they did not dare to offend Bai Qiannuo, so they left with hatred.
The loss and regret in their eyes were clearly evident.
After they left, Li Qi breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother Li, I'm sorry, I'm just being smart---" Bai Qiannuo lowered his head and whispered.
"Forget it."
Li Qi waved his hand and said to Mrs. Qin: "Madam, I don't let the red slave come to Zuixianju now. Of course I have my reasons. It's not just to be angry with you. I worked so hard to teach her to sing.
What? It’s just to make her the number one singing prostitute in Bianjing, and for the sake of our Zuixianju, if you don’t understand me, forget it, but you---"
Having said this, he sighed heavily. He didn't want to give any face to Mrs. Qin in front of Bai Qiannuo, and said: "Madam, you should go back and see Hong Nu first. She is...
She just likes to think wildly. My tone just now may have scared her. Go tell her that I didn't blame her and tell her not to think too much. I will explain it to her when I go back later."
Mrs. Qin now also vaguely felt that what she did was indeed too reckless. She recalled what she had done today and what she said was not like herself at all. She smiled bitterly in her heart, nodded and said: "Okay, I'll go now.
Look at her."
Li Qi nodded and promised Bai Qian: "Qiniang, it's getting so late, you should go back early."
Bai Qiannuo nodded and said, "Then I'll leave first."
"Um."
After everyone left, Li Qi sighed. The reason why he didn't allow Ji Hongnu to come to Zuixianju was not because he was worried about Gao Yanei. After all, Mrs. Qin and Bai Qiannuo's father were not vegetarians, but he didn't like to be unprepared.
In battles, he likes to follow his own plans. Without complete preparations, he will never let Ji Hongnu come out easily.
Fortunately, Ji Hongnu's song tonight came at just the right time, and it was considered a successful hype, but it still did not achieve the sensation he expected.
Li Qi sat in the box for a while, then got up and went out. But when he passed Pingbu Qingyun's box, the box door suddenly opened, and suddenly he heard a clear voice coming from inside, saying: "Since Yu is born, why is He Shengliang? Brother Li,
Your Romance of the Three Kingdoms is really interesting."
Li Qi turned around and saw a handsome young man sitting inside. He was surprised and said: "Miss Zhao."
This person is none other than Zhao Jing.
"Brother Li, why don't you come in and have a drink?" Zhao Jing extended his hand to indicate.
Li Qi nodded with a smile, walked in, and sat across from Zhao Jing. He smiled and said, "Let me make a promise first, I won't drink."
Zhao Jing smiled and said: "You are so expensive and unparalleled in the world, I am not willing to treat you to a drink."
Li Qi laughed and said, "By the way, Miss Zhao, when did you come?"
"I came before you told me the book."
Zhao Jing smiled and said: "It's a coincidence that I happened to be here when you talked about the Three Kingdoms on the first day. Later, I came to listen to you almost every day. Your story about the Three Kingdoms is indeed very exciting."
"Miss Zhao, thank you."
Li Qi smiled and said: "Since you are here, why don't you come to me? I can also give you some discounts."
Zhao Jing smiled lightly and said: "Every time you finish speaking, you immediately go out. I want to find you, but I don't know where to look."
"That's true." Li Qi scratched his head and said with a smile.
Zhao Jing smiled slightly and praised: "Brother Li's name only has the word 'Qi'. What he does is really unexpected. Sage Zhuge is lying in the dragon's palace to wait for a wise master, while Brother Li is standing in the kitchen.
What you want is just a leisurely life. In comparison, Brother Li is slightly better."
Wow! How come this Zhao Renyao knows me so well.
"Don't say this nonsense."
Li Qi hurriedly said: "I don't dare to compare with Sage Zhuge."
Zhao Jing shook his head and said seriously: "Brother Li, please forgive me for saying one more thing. I always believe that you should obtain fame and serve the country. This is the ambition that a man should have."
Here comes this trick again.
Li Qi broke into a cold sweat and said with a wry smile: "Miss Zhao, let me tell you this, it's not that I don't take the exam, it's that I simply can't pass the exam. The words on the two wooden boards below were written by me. What do you think?
When the examiner sees this word, is he still interested in reading the content inside?"
Zhao Jing was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said: "People with great talent usually don't stick to trivial details, so what's the problem with bad handwriting? Even if you don't get the honors, you can still serve the imperial court."
This guy is really out of touch.
Li Qi was stunned and said with a wry smile: "Miss Zhao, why do you value me as a cook so highly?"
"What about the cook?"
Zhao Jing raised his eyebrows and said: "I would like to ask, among the great heroes like Zhuge Sage, Han Xin, Xiao He, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, which one of them comes from a famous family? Why should you care about your own identity?"
Sweating! I never cared about it, okay? I have always been proud of being a chef.
Li Qi was speechless for a moment. He had been in the Northern Song Dynasty for so long, and no one had ever thought so highly of him. He was a little overwhelmed. However, he had already lost confidence in this court, and this had never changed.
Seeing that Li Qi was silent, Zhao Jing said again: "Brother Li, don't blame me. I just express my feelings and have no other intentions. People have their own ambitions. Even if Brother Li is a chef, I believe that sooner or later Brother Li will be able to do it."
He will become the number one chef in our Song Dynasty."
Li Qi was stunned for a moment, then he cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Then thank you Miss Zhao for your kind words."
Zhao Jing nodded and smiled, then stood up and said, "It's getting late, it's time for Zhao Jing to say goodbye."
"Oh, Miss Zhao, walk slowly." Li Qi was stunned, then stood up and said.
Zhao Jing nodded, and then took the boy out. He only heard her sigh softly, "Who decides the success or failure?"
Who decides?
Li Qi shook his head and said to himself: "At least it won't be Zhou Gongjin."
As soon as we got downstairs, the guests gathered around and asked who the woman who sang just now was.
Li Qi did not explain in detail, only saying that he was a distant relative of Mrs. Qin.
When Li Qi returned to the Qin Mansion, Ji Hongnu was still waiting for him. No matter how Mrs. Qin comforted her, she still insisted on waiting for Li Qi to come back.
Li Qi first understood the whole incident clearly. It turned out that Bai Qiannuo had noticed all this. However, Bai Qiannuo originally only asked Ji Hongnu to listen to the story. He never expected that Ji Hongnu heard that Zhou Yu was dead.
, I was so sad that I almost shed tears. I saw a piano in the box, so I couldn't help but start playing and singing.
Speaking of which, this is all Li Qi's fault. If he hadn't placed a piano in each of the four private rooms in order to decorate them more elegantly, such an accident would not have happened.
Wow. It turns out she sang it for Zhou Gongjin.
When Li Qi heard this answer, he felt dumbfounded and asked, "Hongnu, do you really like Zhou Gongjin so much?"
Ji Hongnu nodded, then shook his head, with red eyes, and said: "Zhou Gongjin and his wife are so loving, wouldn't it be pitiful if he died and left his wife alone in the world? Brother Li,
Why do you want to kill Zhou Gongjin, and what will happen to Sister Xiao Qiao later?"
After hearing this, Mrs. Qin's eyes flashed with sadness.
Sweat! Others pity Zhou Yu's talents, but you think of Xiao Qiao. What is this? Fortunately, I didn't mention Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, otherwise you wouldn't have cried to death.
Li Qi was stunned. He wiped cold sweat from his head and said: "This---it's just a story. As for Xiao Qiao, I don't know. Hong slave, you think too much, so you should go back and rest early."
