The Famous Detective of the Red Mansions

Chapter 73 The “big surprise” at the party

In fact, not only Zhu Peng has this question, but the cheap eldest brother Sun Shaozu has long discovered that Sun Shaozong has more than doubled his strength during the more than one year in Qianxiang Country!

This obviously cannot be explained by the reason of ‘physical development’.

Sun Shaozong secretly recalled for a long time, but he still couldn’t help it. In the end, he could only attribute it to the special welfare of the traveler. Compared with those who can summon warriors across the ages, or simply digitize everything, he has more than this. A little bit of strength is really nothing.

talk less gossip.

Sun Shaozong went home and spent more than half an hour indiscriminately. Seeing that the party in the same year was about to begin, he left for the Tongfu restaurant in the outer city under Ruan Rong’s reminder of ‘eat more vegetables and drink less.’

Although this restaurant is small and well-known, it is still not the top class in the industry. The reason why I chose to have a dinner here is because this Tongfu restaurant is the property of Wang Bingxian, the fourth place in the top two.

At the beginning, Wang Bingxian was discriminated against because he was a merchant. After he was transferred to a civilian post, he was not able to make up for the lack of election for more than half a year. In the end, Zhu Peng’s relationship was entrusted to him and he was in Taipu Temple. The Dian Shepherd Department under its jurisdiction has made up an eight-product department order.

What kind of order, to put it bluntly, it was actually a ‘Bi Ma Wen’ for the court, but Wang Bingxian was still grateful and became Zhu Peng’s lackey.

No words all the way.

But Sun Shaozong said that when he arrived outside the Tongfu restaurant, he saw two huge lanterns raised high on the railing on the second floor with the four characters “Gao Peng full seat” written on it-this means to book a place. If you see it, you will know today. Please do not enter.

When Sun Shaozong arrived, there were a few men talking to each other in front of the door. Seeing that he had arrived, they all greeted ‘Brother Nian’ and ‘Brother Nian’.

Because it was a gathering of Wu Jinshi in the same year, all of them were big men, they were slightly inferior, and they could also be called ‘short and strong’.

Sun Shaozong was more at ease than usual when he was in it. He jotted down a few names indiscriminately and found that most of these people were in military positions in patrol, city defense, or Shenji camps, and only Wang Bingxian was the only one who had turned into a civil service.

However, it is not Wang Bingxian who is in charge of the door, but a vice lieutenant from the sixth rank named Zhuhu.

Sun Shaozong inquired sideways, only to realize that Zhu Hu was originally Zhu Peng’s cousin.

But compared to Zhu Peng who was full of ‘forgiveness’, this Zhu Hu was obviously more capable, and his manners and words were somewhat calmer. Although Sun Shaozong was the main greet, he did not neglect others.

Everyone talked and laughed a few more times, and Zhu Hu made a circle and said with a smile: “Brother Nian, I have been waiting inside, why don’t we go in and talk?”

Everyone suddenly promised, and you pushed me to give in. In the end, Sun Shaozong and Zhu Hu walked in the forefront.

“Brother Sun.”

The Zhu Hu walked side by side with Sun Shaozong, but he lowered his voice and said, “You are offended to give up your younger brother. Please also look at the fact that they are all in the same year. Don’t care about him.”

Sun Shaozong haha ​​and said perfunctorily: “How dare I care about my brother? What if you offend Lord Tianguan because of this, do you have a future?”

That’s the case, but Sun Shaozong didn’t really care about Zhu Peng in his heart. After all, after he got a bullfighting suit, he could be called a character of “Jian Zai Dixin”. Even a magnificent official secretary, he didn’t dare. In order to help his son-in-law jealous, he deliberately suppressed him.

Zhu Hu obviously understands this point. He smiled bitterly after hearing the words, and then lowered his voice: “In fact, the younger brother is not such an arrogant temperament, it’s just this period of time… Well, he is also depressed in his heart, so… Please forgive me, Brother Sun.”

Although Zhu Hu was willing to talk twice in a row, Sun Shaozong had already understood what he meant–it was nothing more than Zhu Peng who became a man with a green hat, and he was so bitter that he didn’t dare to say it, so he gradually became silent in this silence. It’s perverted.

just…

Sun Shaozong didn’t put this green hat on him, so why should he’forgive’ his arrogance?

So Sun Shaozong just smiled and didn’t take his words.

The Crested Hu wanted to say something more, but he saw someone leaning down and rushing out, with his chest down and his head down. He almost collided with the Crested Hu.

“Jiang Yunhe?”

Zhu Hu stopped his footsteps and looked suspiciously at the person: “Why are you here?”

Hearing the three characters’Jiang Yunhe’, Sun Shaozong also looked at the other side curiously, because this Jiang Yunhe was one of the three civil servants who had fallen off the horse. It is said that he was given a pit by the clerk when he was a magistrate. He was in prison. It took more than half a year for the inside to be released.

Seeing that he is now thin and only has a skeleton, he knows that he has suffered in prison.

That Jiang Yunhe dodges everyone’s gaze, shrinking his neck and whispering: “It was an invitation from Master Zhu, I…Although I was dismissed from my post, the merits of Jinshi are still there.”

Although he said intermittently and had no confidence at all, his remarks were not unreasonable-the same year’s party did not stipulate that he must be a current official to participate. As a Wu Jinshi of Guangde for eight years, it is not a problem to appear here. Inappropriate.

Considering that he was cheated, he was not a true corrupt official, Sun Shaozong felt sympathy, so he smiled and said, “Since it is the same year’s gathering, Brother Jiang is naturally eligible to participate.”

What he said was clearly to relieve Jiang Yunhe, who knew that Jiang Yunhe didn’t appreciate him very much, he only showed a stiff smile to Zhu Hu, and hurried to the corner.

“Oh !”

Zhuhu looked at his rickety back, sighed heavily, and then lowered his voice: “This Jiang Yunhe has been asking Brother She for a recovery recently, but where is Brother She… alas !”

This boy always talks half way for people to guess, and I don’t know how it was developed!

Sun Shaozong was hesitating to ask the question, he heard a familiar and harsh voice in the front hall: “Brother Sun is here, come, come and sit down here, but I have prepared a big surprise for you. Yeah!”

This arrogant tone is naturally none other than Zhu Peng.

Sun Shaozong followed the prestige and saw him sitting on the main seat in the middle of the seat with the Da Ma Jindao. In the same year on the surrounding tables, he stood up to bow to Sun Shaozong, but he was the only one who didn’t move.

At any rate, Sun Shaozong was also a vice lieutenant in the fifth rank of the riding capital, and a convict of the sixth rank. He had no thesis and military attaché position. He was the leader among the people in the sitting room. In private, he is still so ignorant in this large public. To be respectful and humble is really domineering!

Sun Shaozong laughed, and after he stepped forward to pay the courtesy to everyone, he sat down on the table next to him and said calmly: “Since today is a gathering of the same year, it naturally has nothing to do with officialdom. It is more appropriate to invite a few respectable young brothers to sit down.”

These remarks made it clear that they did not give Zhu Peng face, but they were not leaking and did not lose a trace of handle, which formed a sharp contrast with that of Zhu Peng’s wanton perversion.

With only these words, everyone separated him from Zhu Peng in their hearts So those who had enough courage, they also sat on Sun Shaozong’s table.

But because of Zhu Peng’s cheap father-in-law, who dare not give him face, after all, there are still a few.

Therefore, Sun Shaozong only sparsely sat on the table with six or seven people, most of whom were from the patrol camp, which was far less lively than Zhu Peng’s table.

Then Zhu Peng’s expression eased a little bit, and he smiled: “Brother Shao Zong is really not comparable to others, no matter what, when the big surprise I prepared for you appears, you must open your eyes and look carefully. Don’t let me down.”

The boy mentioned the ‘big surprise’ twice, which really made Sun Shaozong a little curious.

was wondering what his ‘big surprise’ would be, and saw that the guys held up the wine jars and bowls and placed them on five round tables.

However, Zhu Peng changed his arrogance, stood up and took the initiative to divide the wine bowls, and filled the wine jars one by one. Finally, he raised his own wine bowl and said loudly, “Dear brothers, to congratulate today, first drink full This cup!”

said, he covered his left sleeve with his left hand, raised his head and drank the bowl of rice wine.

When everyone saw this, they all promised when they were busy, and they raised their drinking bowls and started drinking.

Sun Shaozong is no exception. He raised his head and poured the Shaoxing rice wine into his mouth. Before he could swallow it, he heard a crisp sound, and then Zhu Peng screamed sternly: “Wine…the wine is poisonous!”

!

Sun Shaozong opened his mouth and sprayed all over the table, turned his head to look at the chairman, but saw that Zhu Peng had staggered to the ground.

“Third brother, third brother? Third brother?!”

Zhu Hu hugged his shoulder and shouted a few times, and then turned back slowly, with a pale and trembling voice: “He…he is dead!”

I’m going

Isn’t this the “big surprise” that Ya said? !
