Chapter 801 White Arowana Suit
"Brother Yu, Brother Fang, what do you think?"
Zhang Modong said with a smile that he seemed to have decided that the two of them would lend it to him, but unexpectedly, he had already borrowed money, but the two people in front of him still did not let go.
"No, no."
Fang Xi said bluntly: "Brother Zhang, this is obviously a scam. I will never believe it, and I cannot see you being deceived. I will not lend you this money. I advise you not to be deceived."
"There is too much wine, the food is full, and the night is late. The banquet will be over." Fang Xi stood up and pulled Yu Lu.
Yu Lu apologized for Zhang Modong and went downstairs with Fang Xi directly.
"Hey! You guys..." Zhang Modong reached out to stop him, but he didn't stop him. He could only watch the two of them down, and his face changed.
Yu Lu and Fang Xi were also looking bad. After leaving the restaurant, they immediately called the ox cart. Now that the New Year is over, it’s all else. Wherever the students gather, there must be a ox cart to transport the drunk juren back...
Sure enough, with a wave of his hand, a coachman came up and helped him get on the car, smiling: "Two masters, the wind is cold, come up quickly, where are you going?"
The two got into the car and sat down. Yu Lu was stunned for a moment and said, "Go... the east side of Maoer Lane, Nanluo Hutong."
I originally wanted to go to Lufang Taisun Mansion, but suddenly I remembered Taisun’s advice and chose to go home.
"Sit down," the coachman shouted. The ox cart moved. The snow and rain in winter were the most heartbroken. Every household returned home to celebrate the New Year. Red paper lanterns were hung. There were almost no pedestrians on the streets and yamen and alleys. Only soldiers stood at important streets and streets, occasionally checking the passing pedestrians.
Fang Xi looked outside and whispered: "You said, are you..."
"Shh, don't talk outside." Yu Lu made a gesture, leaned against the mat and closed his eyes to rest, just thinking.
"Zhang Modong is actually not familiar with us, but looking for us every day is very suspicious."
"What is the unparalleled national warrior? Could it be..." Yu Lu didn't dare to think about it anymore. The hotel was not far from home, and soon, the ox cart arrived.
There is a hotel near my home. You can see that the originally busy shop is much deserted, with only half of the door open. A few poor men who can't afford the banquet are eating and drinking in the store, and they are all drunk.
Yu Lu glanced at him and didn't see a stranger. He went back and wrote a note and placed it in the window. If others saw it, they would think it was normal. Then he didn't go into the room to rest immediately, and greeted the servant who came out: "It's the New Year, you don't have to greet me, I'll give you a vacation."
He looked at the owner of the shop at the entrance of the hotel again: "Boss, we have drunk wine outside. You can boil some hot water for us, and then some fruits and peanuts to watch the New Year..."
This is very common. Although Yu Lu and Fang Xi have their own house, many services are still in hotels, which is convenient.
The shop owner did not feel suspicious at all. He said with a smile: "You heard that, guys, boil water and bring towels for the master and prepare some dessert fruits."
After a while of hello, the guy quickly came in with hot water and brought a hot towel. Yu Lu soaked his feet in a basin and wiped his face with a hot towel. Suddenly, he felt a little moved. He held back and asked casually: "What happened in your store?"
The guy added a pot of hot water and smiled: "It's nothing, it's just Mr. Xing Ye. He is from a poor family and is in a cold state, so he is sick!"
"The boss said, I asked the doctor to treat him. I will be exempted from the cost and accommodation. I said I will go to Beijing for a trial soon. Maybe I am a Wenqu star. Even if it is not, it will be a virtue."
After hearing this, Yu Lu was silent and said, "You are also doing business. Just like this, you are exempt from accommodation. I will pay for medical expenses, so I have to accumulate some virtue."
"Oh, the master is so kind-hearted. He can be high school at first glance." The guy said quickly, smiling.
"And there are also friends Zhang who are having dinner with me."
This friend refers to the call of each other after passing the imperial examination. If he is a scholar, he can only be called a friend.
"He, nothing happened, just a few people came to him and talked for a long time."
Yu Luxin moved and described the fortune teller, saying, "Is there him?"
"It seems that there is, it seems to be an adult."
"Sir?" Yu Luxin shook his heart, but asked casually.
After washing his feet, the guy poured water with a basin and replied casually: "Yes, I heard Mr. Zhang call him "Master, I guess he is an official."
Yu Lu stopped talking and took out a piece of silver, about one or two taels: "I will have to serve you during the New Year and reward you."
"Oh, Mr. Xie, Mr. Xie." The guy narrowed his eyes into a slit and went with great gratitude. As the door closed, the whole yard suddenly became quiet.
"Brother Yu, the note is gone." Fang Xi went to see it as soon as the person left and said in a low voice.
"Well, stay up to the New Year!" Yu Lu said solemnly, and the two sat, burned charcoal fire in the basin, lit two candles, and put melon seeds and peanuts to discuss the meaning of the scriptures with each other, which seemed very comfortable.
But in the end, I had something in my heart. As time went by, I gradually became tired and became more and more difficult to feel at ease. The sound of firecrackers outside the window aroused my mood.
"After all, did the note be sent to Taisun's Mansion? The movement just now was not like a human or an animal?"
Waiting for anxiety, Yu Lu ate two bites of tea, suddenly became popular, and then recited: "I examine myself three times a day, are I not loyal to others? Do I not believe in my friends? Do I not practice it?"
When I was still chanting, I heard someone chanting at the window: "The country of thousands of vehicles should be respectful and trustworthy, and the people should be loved by virtue and love for the sake of the people."
"Who?" Yu Lu was shocked and looked around, but no one was seen. In surprise, he heard a sound, and a man in black suddenly stood in front of him!
Yu Lu calmed down in an instant, looked at it carefully, but became more and more familiar with it. Fang Xi even said directly: "Brother Su... no, Your Highness?"
"It's me!" The man in black took off his mask, and it was Su Ziji.
"Why did your highness come here with a kiss? Isn't it true that your highness is dressed up? Don't you know that the white dragon fish clothes are trapped by the fisherman?" Yu Lu suddenly became anxious.
"It's not easy to send people during the Chinese New Year, so I have to drink too much to rest, so I came along the secretly." Su Ziji said with a smile: "How could I do this usually? We have been friends for many years, but aren't it clear?"
"Tell me, what's the specific situation?"
Yu Lu also wanted to persuade him, but he knew that Taisun came in secret and there must be not much time, so he calmed down and told him about the situation just now.
"...Your Highness, this is the case. There were a few words written on the fan. At that time, I felt that this was a big deal and I didn't dare to stay for a long time. I immediately came out with Fang Xi."
"There is also the fortune teller, but he is called an adult, and I'm afraid it's not easy inside."
Yu Lu's words made Su Ziji, who was still smiling relaxed, change his color. He frowned and thought under the lamp. After a moment of stretching his eyebrows, he said to Yu Lu: "I understand, you are doing this right. Zhang Modong, you don't have to deal with him anymore. Just close the door and study only in your residence."
"Leave the rest of the matter to me." Su Ziji said lightly, then said goodbye and left immediately. His figure swayed and disappeared outside the door.
Seeing Su Ziji disappear, Yu Lu and Fang Xi looked at each other for a long time before sitting down again with a ugly expression.
"Sure enough, this is the test question, or maybe we are using us to frame the grandson?"
