To Hold One’s Joy

  Chapter 374 Heartbreak

   Wei Han strode over, casually brushed off the snow on the opposite stone bench, and sat down.

   Just blocked Luo Sheng's view of the boy who chopped wood.

   "Ku'er, go get a thick cushion." Luo Sheng glanced at Wei Han and ordered lightly.

"Need not."

  Luo Sheng raised his eyebrows.

   Wei Han put his fist on his lips and coughed lightly, then changed his mouth: "That's fine."

  Keer quickly fetched a cushion.

  Seeing that the cushion and Luo Sheng were just a pair, Wei Han bent his lips in satisfaction and sat down comfortably.

  Looking at the jade jug placed on the stone table, he asked in a deep voice, "Why drink alone?"

   "I have nothing to do, the weather is fine, and watching people work is pleasing to the eye, so let's have a few drinks." Luo Sheng said with a smile.

   Wei Han stared at her, and after a while, he picked up the jug and filled up the wine glass that Kerr had just offered, and toasted.

  Luo Sheng picked up his glass and took a sip.

  The shochu was already a little cold, but it was scorching hot when it entered the throat.

   Wei Han drank a cup and poured it again, only to find that it was gone.

   "Kuer, bring me two more jugs of wine."

  Keer quickly brought two jugs of wine and placed them beside the two of them.

   Wei Han poured a cup for Luo Sheng, poured a cup for himself, and persuaded: "Just drink in moderation, Miss Luo, don't drink too much."

   "Yeah." Luo Sheng responded casually, and sent Kouer and Hongdou to do other things.

  For a while, there were only two people who were drinking relatively, and the boy and the supervisor who were chopping firewood in the corner were left in the courtyard.

  The wind blows, the branches of the persimmon tree sway boredly, and sprinkle fine snow foam.

  Luo Sheng asked: "There is a steward Zhu in Qianjinfang, does the prince know?"

   "I know, he is the brother-in-law of the owner of Qianjinfang, and he is the leader of the killers hiding in Qianjinfang."

  Luo Sheng tightened the cup in his hand, and said in a cold voice, "What about the owner of Qianjinfang?"

Wei Han took a sip of his wine: "According to what we know so far, the owner of Qianjinfang was kept in the dark, not an insider. Qianjinfang is a gambling house that has been open for many years, and that manager Zhu appeared in the capital seven years ago. of."

  Luo Sheng raised his eyebrows.

  Seven years ago, it was the time when Wei Qiang was adopted and entered Beijing under the name of Emperor Yong'an.

  Whether there is a connection between them depends on whether King Kaiyang can ask something from these people after closing the net.

   "My lord, this time the net is collected, that Guanshi Zhu will be left as a fish that slipped through the net."

   Wei Han took a deep look at Luo Sheng, but didn't ask any further questions, just said hello.

   Wei Han's refusal to ask made Luo Sheng feel very relaxed.

  The other party asked, and although she could just make up a reason to get over it, but at this moment, she felt that one more thing was tiring.

   It would be better not to ask.

  There are more and more empty jugs on the stone table.

   "Can my lord sit here?" Luo Sheng lazily knocked on the stone bench beside him.

   Wei Han looked at her with a wine glass.

  Because of drinking wine, the girl's cheeks were dyed red, which was particularly moving against the backdrop of the white snow.

   Wei Han thought: Miss Luo is really pretty.

  He moved over with the person and the cushion, because he was so close, he seemed to be able to smell the clear plum fragrance.

  Luo Sheng smiled: "This way you won't be able to block your line of sight."

   Wei Han was silent, then looked over.

  Xu Qi threw the ax and sat down on the ground: "I'm exhausted, quit!"

  The strong man stared: "After chopping a lot of firewood, I'm done. Hurry up, don't be lazy."

  Xu Qi gritted his teeth angrily: "There is no one who manipulates people like that, you are using me like a mule!"

  The strong man sneered: "Stop embarrassing the mule, how can a mule be so useless?"

   Seeing the two fighting, Wei Han put down his wine glass and strode over.

   "My lord." The strong man hurriedly saluted.

   Wei Han nodded slightly, and his eyes fell on Xu Qi.

  Xu Qi got up and saluted.

   Wei Han picked up the ax with one hand, put the firewood in the other hand, and split the firewood into small pieces of uniform size, and stacked them neatly.

  Xu Xi was dumbfounded.

   "The firewood needs to be split like this." Wei Han put down his words and strode towards Luo Sheng.

  The young man was left in a daze for a long time, and looked at the strong man blankly.

  Why did King Kaiyang come to teach him how to chop firewood?

  Could it be—this chopping wood is not really chopping firewood, but practicing some kind of peerless magic skill?

   That's right, King Kaiyang is the **** of war that makes the people of Northern Qi fearful, maybe it's just like this!

   Xu Xi's eyes lit up, and he swung his ax to chop.

  Wait for him to practice magic skills, and kill all the people who bullied him.

  The strong man looked at the energetic young man and touched his chin in wonder.

   Could it be that what he taught was wrong?

   Wei Han sat back, raised the jug and shook it, and smiled at Luo Sheng: "There is no more wine."

  Luo Sheng took a deep look at the man beside him.

  She had a bold guess: King Kaiyang drank too much again.

   "Just drink in moderation." Luo Sheng returned someone's advice just now.

  The man looked at her with bright eyes: "But I still want to drink."

  Luo Sheng pursed his lips.

   This is really too much to drink.

   "When the wine shop opens, the prince will drink with the appetizers."

   Wei Han shook his head: "Then we won't be able to drink with Miss Luo."

  When Luo Sheng was silent, he added: "I haven't had a drink with Miss Luo yet."

   Drinking together like now, never before.

  Luo Sheng scanned the desktop.

  There are seven or eight wine jugs on the table, but there is not even a single appetizer.

  You can drink so much without a single dish?

   "I rarely drink with others." Luo Sheng said lightly.

  The man beside him not only didn't feel depressed about being rejected politely, but instead smiled: "Then I'm very honored today."

  Luo Sheng didn't want to talk anymore.

  She discovered that after King Kaiyang drank too much, his face would thicken accordingly.

   "Cole."

   Kerr poked her head out from the door leading to the backyard from the lobby.

   "Bring two more jugs of wine."

  Since she insisted on drinking, she didn't stop her, she just wanted to drink now.

  In the lobby, Shi Yan reminded Koer intimately: "Two jugs are definitely not enough, so go directly to two altars."

  Wine makes people courageous, maybe their master can live up to it today.

  Kuer made sense after thinking about it, and sent the two jars of wine over.

  Luo Sheng filled up the wine, and after two glasses of wine, the wine jar in the hand of the man next to him was empty.

  The big hand moved over little by little.

  Luo Sheng watched coldly, keeping his face.

   She wants to see what this guy is going to do when he drinks too much, he won't play tricks, right?

  The big hand is getting closer.

  The man's hand is well-articulated, which is very different from hers.

  Luo Sheng squeezed his fingers together, thinking that if someone molested him, should he throw soju on his face, or just slap him.

  The big hand finally moved closer carefully, and then took the unfinished wine jar from the girl's hand.

  Luo Sheng was silent.

  The wind picked up, and the snow on the persimmon trees fell rustlingly, as if it was snowing again.

  Luo Sheng felt a little complicated.

  During those years when she was the princess of Qingyang, she never thought that she would be a passionate person.

  However, since she became Miss Luo, she has experienced this man several times!

  At the door, the little guard who was peeking through the curtain saw this scene, felt like a thousand arrows pierced his heart, and fell the curtain while clutching his heart.

   Don't watch it, heartbroken!
