Finest Servant

Xu Wenchang's words were very meaningful, Lin Wanrong pretended he didn't hear it, smiled and said: "Since Mr. Wenchang has come to Jinling, it is impossible to live for a few more days. Take a look at the Xuanwu scenery and Qinhuai scenery, I believe It will be a worthwhile trip. Cough, cough, the scenery on the Qinhuai River is so wonderful, Mr. Xu, a romantic person, will not miss it. "

Xu Wenchang laughed dryly and said, "This time, the old man came to Jiangnan, and the time is tight. Although the scenery of Qinhuai is good, I am afraid that the old man will not have the time to enjoy it." He paused, glanced around, and then whispered: "To be honest with my little brother, when I handled the case of the White Lotus Sect in Hangzhou a few days ago, this old man got a new clue. It was related to this Jinling. As a last resort, this old man hurried to Jinling."

Lin Wanrong laughed and said: "Mr. Xu is the pillar of the country, and he is highly valued by the emperor. It is inevitable to be busy. By the way, Mr. Xu, how did you know that I am here." The matter of mentioning Bailian is very clever.

Xu Wei said with a smile: "Food is a fairy, but the reputation has spread all over Jiangsu and Zhejiang, how can the old man not know? This restaurant is not only doing well in business, but also I heard that there are four masterpieces in the world hanging, the old man is interested in doing business and couplets. When I arrived in Jinling, how could I not come here for a visit. It’s better to meet you if you are famous. When I saw you today, it was exquisitely arranged, unique in style, and extraordinary. When I came here, I happened to meet my little brother, look Come to me and this food is also an immortal."

Xu Wei has traveled all over the world, and he is well-informed, and Shiweixian can get his praise, which can be regarded as a well-deserved name. However, Lin Wanrong didn't believe what he said about the coincidence. Gao Yi's elder brother Gao Shou was working under Luo Min. He also had a share of the responsibility of protecting the restaurant. Xu Wei and Luo Min were good friends. A real relationship is not difficult at all. Speaking of coincidences, it is clear that they came directly here to wait for me.

"Especially these four pairs of couplets that are so wonderful in the world. Although I boast of being a master of writing, I can't get it right. I am ashamed and ashamed." Xu Wenchang looked at the four couplets with regret, and it seemed that he was really powerless. Lin Wanrong was naturally a little smug, and if he could beat Xu Wenchang down, Lao Tzu was probably the number one person in the world.

"By the way, little brother, this Yanyan Yanyan Yanyan Yanyan, who is right in the lower couplet, is also very neat. The world is so big, there are indeed countless talented people." Xu Wenchang said, that day Luo The second couplet sent by Ning, Qiaoqiao has already been framed, and the two are combined together. One of the four unique couplets in the world has gone.

"Oh, this is the daughter of Governor Luo Min, Miss Luo Ning's friend in Beijing." Lin Wanrong said with a smile: "I heard that this lady is not simple, she is a female teacher of Jinghua College in Beijing, or a member of the Imperial College. Sacrifice wine, the name is not small."

"Miss Luo's friend?" Xu Wei gave a long snort and smiled mysteriously: "So it's her, so it's no wonder."

When Xu Wei arrived, how could a profiteer like Lin Wanrong let go of such a good opportunity? He laughed at Qiaoqiao and said, "Qiaoqiao, Master Xu is a big man who can't be invited even with a lantern.

Hurry up and prepare the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and ask the adults to inscribe a few words for our food. "

Xu Wei's calligraphy and painting are famous all over the world, and they are worth thousands of dollars. Qiaoqiao still doesn't understand what the big brother means, so he happily prepares the ink, ink, ink, and ink.

The relationship between Xu Wei and Lin Wanrong has been very harmonious, and Su Qinglian is also a big match made by Lin Wanrong, so the inscription is naturally not a problem, and immediately smiled: "Little brother, aren't you embarrassing me, there are four couplets of you. In front of me, how dare an old man show his ugliness."

Lin Wanrong doesn't care about the three-seven-two-one, and he doesn't make money if he has money. That's definitely not someone Lin's style.

Xu Wei declined a few words and saw that the pen, ink, paper and inkstone were all ready. He shook his head helplessly. He picked up the pen and ink and pondered for a while before he wrote with a smile: "This place is filled with wine in spring, and Jinghua's crown and cover are still full of joy. , Flying to the Broken Moon Juwen Building."

I *, this old Xu is really talented, he can come up with a little poem in a blink of an eye, especially the last two sentences, not only praise the food, but also point out the prosperity of literary affairs here, which is the finishing touch. Others say that these two sentences are not very useful, but who is Xu Wenchang? He is the number one talent in the world to learn. With this poem, the talent in the world will not come, and the boundless gold and silver are rolling in?

"Qiaoqiao, take this poem and frame it and hang it in the most conspicuous place in the hall. This is our treasure, and we want to share it with the talented people all over the world." Lin Wanrong exclaimed enthusiastically.

Xu Wei cupped his hands again and again: "Ashamed, ashamed, Brother Lin has won the prize."

After blackmailing Xu Wei with a poem, Lin Wanrong sat down and drank tea with him leisurely.

Xu Wei glanced at him and said with a smile: "Little brother Lin, in those days in Hangzhou, the old man already believed that you were talented and not ordinary. Sure enough, when you returned to Jinling, the little brother was a blockbuster."

"Oh? Where did Mr. Xu start?" Lin Wanrong asked strangely.

Xu Wei said loudly: "Little brother, don't be humble. At the banquet of Mrs. Luo a few days ago, you alone defeated the king of couplets, Shen Banshan. All couplets are classic and extraordinary, and they have long been talked about by talents from Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Brother, don't you know?"

"Oh, this, I always don't pay much attention to the gossip about me." Lin Wanrong said shyly.

Xu Wei laughed loudly: "The little brother is really an ordinary person, and the old man admires it. But—"

He said in a soft voice: "Although the reputation of the little brother is out, he has inadvertently offended some people. It was like that day when Prince Ning celebrated his birthday in person, but you refuted his face, aren't you afraid of offending him?"

"My lord, you're not trying to scare me, are you? I think I, Lin San, are just a little servant, with no power or power, so I can do a little business. What kind of person is the little prince? How far-reaching his vision is and how broad his mind is, I just learned skills from his disciples and promoted each other, how could he care about this with me?" Lin Wanrong said with a haha.

"The little brother really has an open mind. The old man admires it." Xu Wei looked at him and smiled: "But there is one thing, I wonder if the little brother has thought about it carefully?"

Seeing that Lin Wanrong was listening carefully, Xu Wei continued: "The little brothers have a gap with the White Lotus Sect, and they must be deeply disgusted. The imperial court has also encircled and suppressed them several times, and they are very determined. What is the reason for this? The White Lotus Sect originated in Shandong, why is it so rampant in Jiangsu? Is there any other reason behind this? The Hangzhou Bailian case involves a wide range, but it is finally within the controllable range. Just why did this Jiangsu get out of control?"

Xu Wei's words seemed to be talking to himself, but they were deliberately told to Lin Wanrong. Lin Wanrong smiled, old man Xu, you are so thoughtful, you deliberately lead me to talk, if I don't do something, wouldn't I be living up to your kindness too much?

He frowned and said, "When Master Xu said this, I really feel strange when I think about it. Why are the bandits in Jiangsu so rampant?"

He picked out some important things about that day, and then said: "That day, Miss Xiao and I were kidnapped by the white lotus bandits, and there were a lot of doubts. First, the government has not detected the footprints of white lotus for many days. Why was Mr. Tao so easy to find? Second, why was Mr. Tao able to borrow the soldiers and horses from the cavalry battalion, and he just killed them up the mountain when the bandits were about to retreat? Third, the cavalry battalion was surrounded by a large number of soldiers. , why is the White Lotus bandit still missing? These three questions have been lingering in my heart for a long time, and I still have no answer. In addition, I was among the bandits that day, and I had contact with three bandit leaders, one of which was the The adult took Lu Zhongping, and the other two are about his age, one of them is the master behind the two, and listening to his words, he must have an extraordinary background, which is really mysterious and my little brother really doesn't understand."

When he spoke half-heartedly, Xu Wei laughed and said: "Little brother Lin is an extremely smart person, how can he not know the benefits. It's just that the little brother doesn't want to explain it. Well, the old man will tell the truth. I Coming to Jiangnan this time, participating in the annual meetings in Jiangsu and Zhejiang is just a superficial errand, the real concern is—" He raised his hand, smiled slightly, and slashed it down again, saying: "—Destroy this white lotus. "

"Okay, okay." Lin Wanrong applauded and smiled: "My lord thinks about my people, my brother really admires it."

Xu Wei said sternly: "The Hangzhou case, the little brother has also seen, this White Lotus Sect is a group of rabble, except for the ability to pretend to be a ghost to deceive the people, other skills are ordinary, it is not difficult to destroy it."

"Then why is it that it can't be destroyed every year?" Lin Wanrong asked with deep meaning.

Xu Wei nodded and said: "This is the crux of the doubts of the younger brother just now. There are many loyal ministers and good generals in our Dahua Dynasty, but there are not no villains. This white lotus bandit, it is these people with ulterior motives who collude and support behind it. This is wrong and evil. Now the northern enemy is invading, and the white lotus is in chaos. This is the time when I am worried about the internal and external troubles. Next spring, the north will use troops. , One is to clear the white lotus, the other is to cut off the evil claws behind me, and return me to Dahua. Then I will bring all my people to expel the captives, jointly control the Hu people, and rebuild the prosperous era of the Celestial Dynasty."

These remarks are impassioned, and Xu Wenchang's speech skills are not generally strong.

The country and the family are in trouble, and it's not Lin Wanrong's turn to care. He just wants Jinling to be peaceful, and don't let Qiaoqiao encounter any danger.

It's just that this thing is getting more and more interesting. Before the little prince left, Xu Wei came again, and Luo Min, the old fox, hehe, there is a good show to watch now.
