Chapter 31 Disrespect for the old

After all, there are a few people who come to the tavern for a drink early in the morning, and there are not many guests in the tavern, so they look a little deserted.

The one by the window is considered a elegant seat, with bamboo curtain partitions between the wine tables, and the corners are very hidden. Xu Buling sits here, just to facilitate the observation of the mansion opposite.

The waiter warmed up the wine and put it on the wine table with two plates of side dishes. He said, "Customer, use it slowly", and then sat back to the small stool at the door.

Xu Buling picked up the wine pot and poured two bowls of wine. The wine was light yellow and had a strong aroma. It was probably wine made of osmanthus, which was more suitable for women to drink. He put the wine bowl in front of Chuchu, picked up a bowl and took a sip, savored it carefully, and nodded slowly:

"It's quite strong, there are some tricks."

Zhongli Chuchu didn't know how to drink, she could only drink, untied her facial towel, held the wine bowl and rumbled a big mouthful, and wiped the corners of her mouth:

"It's very famous in the capital, no worse than the old shop in your place."

Xu Buling shook his head slightly, obviously disagreed.

The second prince Chen Ju may not leave the palace at noon, so it would be boring to wait. After savoring two delicious wines in southern Xinjiang, Xu Buling put down the wine bowl, leaned forward slightly, and hooked his hands at Zhongli Chuchu.

Zhongli Chuchu was a little confused, thought for a while, got up and sat next to Xu Buling, and leaned closer to ask in a low voice:

"What's wrong?"

Xu Buling also came to Zhongli Chuchu's ears:

"Did you see the waiter at the door?"

The man whispered and whispered, and the man breathed and smelled of alcohol, blowing into his collar along his earlobe.

Zhongli Chuchu shrank his neck slightly, feeling half of her body numb. Although she said she liked Xu Buling, she had already drawn a clear line after that. Now she should call Xu Buling his master's father. How can they be so ambiguous with each other?

Zhongli Chuchu wanted to separate, but Xu Buling put his hands around her back and pulled her closer:

"Don't move around."

Zhongli Chuchu stuck in front of Xu Buling, and always felt that Xu Buling was taking advantage of her. But she didn't dare to do anything randomly with her three-legged kung fu. She could only look at the waiter at the door and ask in confusion:

"Is there a problem with this person?"

Xu Buling nodded slightly: "The steps are extremely stable. Although he is distracted, he can adapt to changes at any time when sitting and hand swaying. This is the instinct of a warrior. Maybe he didn't even pay attention to it himself, but I can see it."

Zhongli Chuchu's green eyes were a little serious, and then he looked at it carefully - his legs were indeed steady, but he was holding his arms and staring blankly, which was also called adapting at any time?

"You... are you sure?"

"Um."

Xu Buling hugged Chuchu with one hand, picked up the wine bowl and took a sip, and placed his eyes on the little one behind the gap in the bamboo curtain, and observed carefully.

Zhongli Chuchu's face turned red a little bit. She grabbed the corner of her skirt and wanted to get up. It was obvious that Xu Buling was so serious and did not dare to move. She could only keep watching the waiter.

But the more you look at it, the more ordinary you become. No matter how you look at it, you don’t look like a master. You don’t bully an honest person!

Zhongli Chuchu pursed her lips and glanced at Xu Buling:

"Mr. Xu, I trust you very much. Don't use such excuses to take advantage of others' danger."

Xu Buling's eyes were pure and flawless: "I want to take advantage of others' danger, why make excuses? Don't just move around."

“…”

Zhongli Chuchu was really hard to refute, so hesitated for a while, and simply pretended that nothing had happened. He picked up the chopsticks and stuttered the wine and food, allowing Xu Buling to put his hands on his back.

But Xu Buling seemed to be very immersed in his sight. The hand behind him accidentally slid down a little and slowly landed on his round buttocks...

!

Zhongli Chuchu sat upright for a few minutes, gritted her teeth secretly, wanting to get angry but afraid of alarming the enemy, so she could only turn her head and ask coldly:

"Mr. Xu, are you soft?"

Xu Buling curled the corners of his mouth and tried to pinch it:

"Haha...it's quite flexible."

?!

Zhongli Chuchu's eyes were stunned, and then he squeezed his elbow under Xu Buling's ribs:

"Liar! Why are you...so shameless? You weren't like this before..."

Xu Buling made a swearing gesture: "Stay at the stalker, don't make such a big noise."

"How can you do this? Take your hands away!"

Zhongli Chuchu was resisting in extreme shame and anger, and suddenly the sound of wheels came from the street.

In a blink of an eye, a luxurious frame stopped outside the mansion gate across the street. More than a hundred personal soldiers were accompanying each other. There were many powerful warriors around the frame, and the defense was extremely tight.

Zhongli Chuchu quickly stopped his movements and looked a little serious. In order to prevent the other party from discovering, he did not look directly. He just lowered his head and drank wine and looked at it with his eyes.

Xu Buling held the wine bowl and glanced at random, and felt it was a bit tricky. He rushed over and killed the team completely. But after all, this place is the capital of Nanyue, and there must be more than 10,000 imperial guards. As long as they missed their tracks, they would face endless roundups. Judging from the current situation, they could only find opportunities to sneak in secret.

After the frame stopped outside the mansion, the door quickly opened. A young man in a blue court uniform walked down from the inside. He first looked back at the wine shop here, looking at the expression that he wanted to come and sit, but after hesitating for a while, he still brought his entourage into the mansion.

While Xu Buling was looking at him, Yu Guang suddenly found that the waiter sitting at the door was also looking at the mansion opposite, to be precise, he looked at the back of the mansion entering the mansion. His eyes were very focused, which was very different from the loss of consciousness just now. However, when Xu Buling looked closely, the waiter returned to his usual appearance just now.

Although this look was only for a moment, Xu Buling could see clearly.

Xu Buling frowned slightly and thought about it carefully, but he could not understand the cause and effect.

When Chen Ju's figure disappeared into the mansion, Zhongli Chuchu pushed Xu Buling's hand away, stood up and sat opposite him, glared at Xu Buling for a long time, and said:

"I am your woman's apprentice. You are disrespectful to the elderly. Do you know that the elders are bullying the young?"

Xu Buling did everything to deceive his master and destroy his ancestors, so he naturally remained calm at this. He smiled and looked at the door:

"Waiter."

Zhongli Chuchu suffered a loss and wanted to draw a line with Xu Buling to explain it clearly. Seeing Xu Buling disconnected the topic, she became even more annoyed in her eyes, but Xu Buling couldn't interrupt her affairs, so she could only snort, turned her head and looked out the window.

Outside the shop, the waiter got up and came to the front:

"What do you want to order?"

Xu Buling patted the stool next to him:

"This is the first time I have come to Beijing. I just heard that this shop is famous, but I don't know the allusion. Can Brother Shi Tou tell me?"

The waiter looked like hesitant, so he stood by the table and hesitated for a while before sitting down on the bench and wiped his hands with a towel:

"In the past, the Imperial Concubine often came here, and then became famous. There was nothing else."

Xu Buling nodded slightly, picked up the wine pot, poured a bowl of wine for the waiter:

"Brother Shi Tou has been here for a long time. Have you ever seen the Imperial Concubine? I heard that the Imperial Concubine is my number one beauty in Nanyue, but it's a pity that fate is so good, alas."

The waiter's expression did not change much, so he sighed and took the wine bowl with both hands:

"I was still young when I came to this shop. I did meet the concubine several times back then. Sometimes God doesn't have any eyes, and there is nothing I can do."

Xu Buling thought for a while, got closer a little, and whispered:

"Our king is still bedridden. He heard rumors in the market that Concubine Zhou is in trouble, and it is the demon fox in the mountains that has become..."

The waiter's eyes changed slightly, and he raised his hand gently: "Customer, you can't say this."

Xu Buling laughed: "I just heard people outside talk nonsense, but I don't know whether it is true or false. However, when our king was young, he worked hard to govern, but suddenly became like this, which really makes people a little confused. There were Daji and Baosi in ancient times, and this kind of thing was not without precedent..."

Taking the rumors in the market, he evaluated the late Concubine Zhou and classified him with Daji and Baosi as the same category. These words were obviously a bit too much, and Zhongli Chuchu frowned.

The waiter shook his head and stopped Xu Buling's words again:

"Celebrity, please don't talk nonsense. The government heard this and it will lose its head. How could the imperial concubine be the woman in the rumor of the city?"

Xu Buling picked up the wine bowl and met the waiter: "I just heard from you. The waiter has seen the concubine, so he knows more than me. However, rumors will not rise without a wind. There must be a reason for this outside to say too much."

Seeing Xu Buling and the slut, the waiter insisted on pulling rumors on Concubine Zhou. His eyes were a little displeased, but he didn't show it too obvious, just shook his head:

"I also met the concubine, who was very good. She was a prince and a son in the capital, and she went to barefoot people, and she didn't like them. Those statements outside cannot be true."

Xu Buling nodded, picked up the wine pot and poured wine for the waiter with one hand:

"The noble man on the street just now is the son of the concubine? He looks so handsome, he is probably similar to the concubine back then. Unfortunately, he is not a daughter. Otherwise, with his appearance, the brothels on the back street would have no shame to open the business..."

The words were frivolous. Even though the waiter saw the prince Chen Ju's look incorrectly, he also compared the prince Chen Ju with the woman in the brothel, which was obviously playing with fire.

It seemed that the tavern suddenly became a little quieter.

Although Zhongli Chuchu's martial arts skills are not very good, she is not a soft-legged shrimp. The instinctive sense of crisis made her realize that the atmosphere was a little wrong, and her body was a little tightened.

Wow—

The brown and yellow wine fell into the bowl, and the sound was subtle, but it was heard clearly on the wine table.

Xu Buling stared at the wine bowl and said some harsh words without any worries.

The waiter's eyes were very steady, as stable as a statue carved from a stone. He looked at the wine falling from the wine pot and rippled in the wine bowl.

At this moment, time seemed to pass very slowly, and even the pedestrians on the street were frozen, leaving only two people close to the table.

However, no matter how slow the time passes, it just feels that everything is still the same outside the wine table.

Xu Buling had not yet filled a bowl of wine, and a woman who was covered tightly came in at the door of the tavern. After glanced around, she raised her hand gently:

"Mr.

After a word came out, the table instantly returned to normal.

The waiter's expression calmed down, raised his hands and took the wine bowl, looked at the door in a blink of an eye, and said with a smile:
Chapter completed!
