The Rise of the Cold Gate in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Chapter 63 This Is Acting (Super Chapter)
Xu Miao, Zhao Yunfei, Man Gu, and Zhou Lie carried Xiao Qinzhi out of the classroom, saying that Xiao Qinzhi's acting skills are also excellent, the whole person is motionless, as if in a coma, his breath is sluggish, his face and body are stained with blood, why? It was a terrible scene, without a trace of demeanor in the courtroom in the afternoon.

Zhou Lie and Man Gu wailed loudly, their voices were miserable, and they didn't cry for a long time, but it was dark and they couldn't see clearly: "Xiao Lang, Xiao Lang, wake up, wake up."

Zhou Lie's voice was tragic and tragic, and he roared angrily, "We'll go back to Wujin now, and notify the Dalang Lord and Sanlang Lord in Jingzhou and Jiangzhou, and lead our troops to pick the entire Fahrenheit."

Xiao Qinzhi endured the embarrassment, secretly pinched Zhou Lie who was immersed in the solo performance and couldn't help himself, and reminded in a low voice: "It's over."

One wave is not settled, another wave arises, Fahrenheit has not been resolved, and a more ruthless Diao family has come. Unexpectedly, the protagonist Xiao Langjun was "killed" in the county government during this special season.

The people in the county government office were stunned. They heard the loud shock and looked at each other with their hearts hanging in their throats. Come and see.

County magistrate Wu was really overwhelmed, thinking: "I'm a f*cking poor county magistrate. I never do anything harmful to nature and reason. At best, I like to spend a little money. How can I be in trouble? Who is to blame? Who is it?"

The county magistrate Wu didn't care about tidying up his clothes, and ran to the place where the incident happened. The county magistrate and the master followed closely behind. They plowed the land several times with big green oxen.

Zhao Yunfei's performance was the most realistic, with tears in her eyes: "Why is this, why is this?"

When Xu Miao saw someone come to check it out, inspiration broke out immediately, imitating Xiao Shu's appearance, he looked up to the sky and screamed, and mournfully said to the moon: "The face of the prosperous age has been destroyed, the name of 'Jiang Zuo Wei Jie' is gone, all names are dead, all are dead what--"

In this era, the face is like a person's name, and destroying one's face is no different from killing one's life. When County Magistrate Wu saw Xiao Qinzhi being carried up, with blood on his face blurred, he regretted in his heart: "Oh, it was ruined too!" His expression was in a trance. , fell to the ground, ignoring the physical pain, got up quickly, turned towards the person behind him, vented his anger wantonly, and insulted him, throwing aside all manners and magnanimity, furious: "Who dares to do this? This is Who did it? Check it out, check it out quickly, I'm going to tear up this harmful thing with my own hands."

The county magistrate and the chief secretary were panicked, and began to trace the eighteen generations of Fahrenheit's ancestors. One ordered martial law to rectify the county government, and the other ordered people to call famous doctors for treatment.

County magistrate Wu is not easy either. He is a poor county magistrate who has nowhere to say. He is said to be the magistrate of a county, but in fact the two wealthy families in Wuxi County don't even look at him. Well, the status of a county magistrate is not even comparable to that of a wealthy man in charge, how sad!

Now the Jingkou Diao family, together with Yan and Dai, are threatening to attack, and they are sandwiched between the two sides. Regardless of the result or not, he, the county magistrate, can't get any good results. Now he only prays that Xiao Qinzhi will not be in danger of his life. Maybe he will have a way Back off, dismissed from office and go home, the rest of my life is ordinary.

"Wu—Wu county magistrate—" Xiao Qin's weak voice mixed with great pain came out.

County Magistrate Wu was stunned, he couldn't help but burst into joy, he hurried forward, grabbed Xiao Qinzhi's hand, and comforted him: "Mr. Xiao, don't say anything for now, wait for a famous doctor to treat you, maybe there will be a better chance."

Xiao Qinzhi looked sad and said: "This matter has nothing to do with County Magistrate Wu. I know that County Magistrate Wu is not easy. I will clarify with you afterwards. I don't want to make it difficult for County Magistrate Wu."

He got up again with great effort, and began a magnificent performance: "Life is alive, full of ups and downs, all of which are honed for me and my poor family. The sharp edge of the sword comes from sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold. How can everything go smoothly? Wealth and honor cannot Prostitution, poverty and lowliness cannot be moved, and power cannot be subdued. This is called a man. A man stands between heaven and earth, and he needs to act frankly. Something difficult to beat?"

"Brother Xianmin, Brother Yunfei, don't worry, help me up quickly, I am entering the county government in a dignified way, and I have to go out in a dignified way, so I should show my true nature!"

Xu Miao and Zhao Yunfei were pretended to be dumbfounded.

A surge of gratitude welled up in the heart of County Magistrate Wu, and he wanted to persuade a few words, but Xiao Qinzhi politely refused, so he personally supported Xiao Qin to stand on the ground, but seeing Xiao Qin, a young man who had endured such Even though he was able to face the great persecution calmly, he looked at life with a smile, and couldn't help but be impressed by it, and sighed with sincerity: "Mr. Xiao Lang, you are truly famous!"

Xiao Qin staggered a few steps down the ground, and Xu Miao and Zhao Yunfei supported him with quick eyesight and quick hands. Just like this, step by step, he slowly passed through the bright and bright county government hall, and then walked step by step into the glorious city of Wuxi.

Xu Miao and Zhao Yunfei were completely shocked by Xiao Qinzhi's series of manipulations and superb acting skills, so they kept everything they saw carefully in their hearts, expressing that they would seriously review it when they went back.

The Magistrate of County Wu sent him to the gate of the county yamen, and when he saw Xiao Qin's group slowly disappearing, he gave up, turned around and immediately called the county magistrate and the chief secretary into a separate room, whispering to each other about important matters, in order to protect themselves.

At Fenglin Ferry, the water is rippling, the night is boiling, the people on both sides of the strait are full of voices, and the crowd is turbulent, no less than a thousand people. The captain and a dozen or so captives looked miserable at the moment, with a bruised nose and swollen face, their official uniforms were stripped off, their hands and feet were bound, and they knelt on the ground.

The common people who have been tortured for a long time have no place to complain for a long time. Now that Mrs. Diao is upholding justice, they are not afraid, and immediately open their mouths to insult, spit, and throw away rotten eggs and stinky vegetable leaves.

Diao's powerful trilogy doesn't care what the common people are like, and he is even happy to see this scene, deliberately showing a big gap for the common people to throw dirt.

Diao's large catamaran painting boat, more than 20 feet long and seven or eight feet high, looks like a colossus in the inland waterway, standing at the Fenglin Ferry. There are many, gorgeous decorations, gold and silver utensils can be seen everywhere, and slim maids are magnificent and graceful.

Just as the lanterns come on, the boat is resplendent with gold and jade, beautiful figures are moving, embroidered yarn and flying clothes are swaying, singing and swallow dancing are in full bloom, the night wind seems to come to help, the sound of rolling maple leaves rubbing far away, and layers of fine ripples are rippling and sparkling. All of them are showing the aristocratic demeanor of the top scholar Jingkou Diao family.

In the whole Wuxi County, there are very few people who can be invited to board a boat to have a look. However, just as the Taihu Lake Gathering is about to be held, the talents of Jinling County will gather in Wuxi, and the refined scholars from Wu County next door will also come to watch. Therefore, Diao Shihao invited many talents to board the boat, not limited to scholars, so tonight at Fenglin Ferry, on Diao Shi's large catamaran painting boat, it was extraordinarily lively, and the fragrance permeated Wuxi City.

The first floor of the painting boat is full of young people from poor families who are invited. Being able to board this boat represents identity and status, and they are all honored.

The second floor of the painting boat is for the invited gentry children, and the view here is excellent, overlooking the maple leaf forest on the side, looking at Taihu Lake in the west, overlooking Fenglin Ferry, and sitting in the city of Wuxi.

Different from the noise on Diao's big catamaran boat, the other one in the ferry, the big boat with four corners and cornices from Wu County, was very deserted. There were only a few people standing at the bow. , Chen Tanzhi is on the list, and several people are familiar with each other, but they are watching the night scene.

The crowned young man Zhang Xuanzhi looked at the Maple Leaf Forest with a glass of fine wine, and couldn't help but think of the poem that made this Maple Leaf Forest famous, and recited it again: "Climbing Wuxi Fenglin Ferry - Yonghuai", and thought of the poet who wrote the poem People can't help feeling compassion.

Xie Xuan, who pretended to be Chen Tanzhi, was depressed. He was beaten up by Xiao Qinzhi at the Bei Ya Ji, and finally calmed down a little in the past few days. He didn't want to meet again in Wuxi. Listening to this latest poem, he refused to admit defeat Due to his temperament, he was quite unconvinced and wanted to write a poem, but after brewing for a long time in his heart, Night Breeze drank a lot, but he still couldn't write a good poem.

For some reason, Xie Xuan had some resistance to Xiao Qinzhi, but he still recognized Xiao Qinzhi's talent. When he thought of Fahrenheit bullying others today, he couldn't help being angry, thinking: "I don't bully others, a Fahrenheit dares to do this .”

Immediately spat: "Wuxi Huashi humiliated our gentry, pretending to be a fake, ashamed to be with us."

The charming and beautiful young man named Lu Chu, styled scholar, the son of Lu Na, the prefect of Wu County, was wandering in the night breeze, looking at Huishan at the end of the maple leaf forest. At the foot of the mountain is Huayuan, and he couldn't help but sneer: "Vulgar, vulgar!"

However, Fahrenheit is also a noble family in the South, and Xie Xuan’s move is suspected of despising the nobles in the South. Lu Chu glanced at the Diao family’s painting boat opposite, and spat delicately: "It’s even more vulgar!"

"Since you know the customs, you still go to see it. If you don't see it, who would dare to force you to fail Mr. Lu?" Xie Xuan glanced and joked.

Lu Chu lightly stroked the tail of the stag, blowing the fragrant wind, and said indifferently: "The vulgar thing is blocking it, it's just humiliating, and it can't be removed."

Henry Zhang ignored the two, but said regretfully: "I wanted to see Xiao Qinzhi, but I'm afraid it won't happen."

As soon as Xie Xuan thought about it, a black-bellied idea came up. He was going to cheat his friend and let him have a taste of hardship. He said faintly: "Brother Xuan, if you see him and want to play chess with him, I advise you to go against him. Go home as soon as possible to avoid defeat."

If Gu Kaizhi is a painting idiot, then Zhang Xuanzhi is a chess idiot. He is obsessed with Go. One of the reasons for coming to Wuxi this time is to play chess with Xiao Qinzhi. Hearing Chen Tanzhi's words, he was suddenly excited. , Dissatisfied: "If you don't come here, I will not be able to beat him? I, Henry Zhang, walk on the left side of the river, and it is rare to meet a chess player. How can I not be able to beat him?"

Xie Xuan chuckled and said, "Can you guarantee that you can beat my elder sister?"

Zhang Xuanzhi thought to himself: "Your family has Lin Xiafeng, and my family has a boudoir show." He also refused to admit it, and said: "You can't beat me, so just move out your sister. There is a six-point chance of winning, even if I can't win, it will be difficult for your sister to win against me."

Lu Chu looked at Chen Tanzhi carefully, and said with a coquettish smile, "Brother Xuanzhi won't be able to sleep at night after what you said. Hehe——then Xiao Langjun has something to do, so he won't be able to come out tonight."

Henry Zhangzhi thought about Xie Xuan's words in his heart, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and said with a pursed mouth: "The Chen brothers can't get down, it doesn't mean I can't get down either."

Xie Xuan didn't tell the lie about Chen Tanzhi, and he was ashamed to say that this time he was returning to Kuaiji from Jinling and passing by Fenglindu. When I met Lu Chu, I just went to Jinling alone to visit my father and passed through Wuxi.

At this moment, hearing Henry Zhangzhi's words, Xie Xuan's heart was severely wounded, and he blocked his throat in one breath. There was suffering, but he had to pretend to be indifferent, so as not to let his feet slip, and said in his heart: "Xiao Qinzhi, Xiao Qinzhi Qinzhi, you must win."

How could Xiao Qinzhi know, because of what Xie Xuan said behind his back, it was firmly remembered by Henry Zhangzhi in his heart, and he shuddered inexplicably, thinking that it was the night wind.

At this moment, Xiao Qinzhi was returning to the ferry with Xu Miao and others. Passing through the open space, he saw the tragic situation of the county lieutenant and more than a dozen arresters.

Xiao Qinzhi's appearance was also miserable. Although it was a faux pas, in the eyes of the common people, it was undoubtedly the result of being humiliated and beaten by Fahrenheit.

Fortunately, Diao's trilogy was covered, and they boarded Diao's painting boat together, which attracted a burst of sympathy. Xiao Qinzhi asked for justice.

Xiao Qinzhi seemed to be unable to stand still, he struggled even to raise his hand, and complimented: "When I just came here, I heard that the people in Wuxi City were all praising Brother Diao for his profound understanding of righteousness, and removing the great harm from Wuxi City, Brother Brother here thanks Diao Senior brother upholds justice and restores peace to one side."

Diao Cheng had a good impression of Xiao Qinzhi, and Xiao Qinzhi's words were pleasant to listen to. Seeing that Xiao Qinzhi's face was covered with blood and looking miserable, he no longer insisted on keeping him, and he told him: "Xiao Shidi, why don't you Go back and recuperate first, and leave other matters to me.

Originally, Xiao Qinzhi wrote a poem for Yan Ruoyu, which made Yan Lin unhappy, and then wrote a poem for Xie Daoyun, which raised Yan Ruoyu's reputation. Yan Lin was very happy, and now he also added a postscript: "Xiao Shidi, don't worry. , the most important thing is to recuperate first, and the rest can be handed over to the brothers."

Xiao Qinzhi pursed his lips, brewed his emotions for a long time, but did not shed tears, so he tried his best to squeeze his eyes, finally they were red, "Thank you very much" and said: "Thank you brothers, I don't thank you for my great kindness, I will repay it in the future."

Diao Cheng was touched, and couldn't bear Xiao Qinzhi's wounded support, so he sent someone to send Xiao Qinzhi back, and asked the servant to take a lot of tonics with him.

But Xu Miao and Zhao Yunfei stayed behind, and began to vividly describe the ins and outs of this incident, and how Xiao Qinzhi was brutally disfigured by Fahrenheit in the county government, and finally took out the blood-splattered poem written by Xiao Qinzhi.

Xu Miao unfolded his poems and essays in front of everyone, the blood stains on them were clearly visible, shocking, people could not help but think of Fahrenheit's criminal deeds, they all gritted their teeth, hated it deeply.

Xu Miao chanted: ""Lotus""

Greenery in the pillar garden, rustling cold wind

In ancient times, if you want to be beautiful, everyone admires bamboo and plum

Why not be green and crisp, and the wind blows in winter

Store dirty water, discharge dye and sharpen

Indifferent to flowers in February, fat in July

Lieyang should laugh at me and swear to cry endlessly

This poem is a metaphor for love. Xiao Qinzhi uses lotus to express that although he is in the dark, his heart is still facing the light. "Swear to cry endlessly" shows that Xiao Qinzhi will never bow to Fahrenheit and shed tears. , a lofty ambition that is not afraid of power.

Xu Miao's acting skills are natural, and he substituted himself into Xiao Qinzhi's role. He just recited a not-so-great poem about ambition with great sadness and resentment, as if he had been treated inhumanly and hurt. The one who lost his face became him.

However, Xu Miao felt that it was not enough, so he recited tragically: "Be generous in the city of Wu, and be a prisoner of Chu calmly. Draw a sword into one piece, and live up to the boy's head."

The two poems made the image of Xiao Qinzhi stand in the hearts of everyone at once. On the contrary, Fahrenheit became the foil, the muddy water, mud, and scorching sun that hindered the growth of the lotus, and was nailed forever. On the pillar of shame, the hat of the big villain will never be taken off for a lifetime, unless Fahrenheit can regain the Northland.

Diao Cheng dropped the wine bottle in his hand suddenly, and said in a loud voice: "Fahrenheit is rampant, insulting my northerners, bullying people so far, ruining people's appearance, it is really shameless, the crime is heinous, the crime is heinous. Regardless of the north and the south, they are all nobles. All of you, if you walk with me tomorrow, I will definitely call him Fahrenheit good-looking, and return the world to a bright future."

"Okay!" Yan Lin said sternly.

"Blood debt is paid in blood!" Fat old eight's cousin Dai Zong clenched his fists and said.

Let's say, Xiao Qin got off Diao's big boat and went back to Xiao's big boat with Zhou Lie. He was walking staggeringly when he was injured, when he suddenly heard a familiar voice from behind: "Brother Qin, wait a moment!"

Xiao Qinzhi suddenly looked back and saw that it was a young gentleman with a jade face who came in the night, and said in surprise: "Brother Yun, why are you here?"

Chen Yunzhi took a closer look, his face was masked by weak light, but seeing Xiao Qinzhi's blood was dry and half of his face was swollen, he couldn't help feeling uncomfortable. Thinking of Xiao Qinzhi's past demeanor, he couldn't help but sullenly said:

"But what did Fahrenheit do?"

Xiao Qinzhi talked with Chen Yunzhi, he was happy for a moment, but he also knew that this is not a place to talk, after whispering a few words with Zhou Lie, he wailed: "Brother Yun, come and help me."

Zhou Lie took Diao's tonic and went back on his own.

Chen Yunzhi didn't know that Xiao Qinzhi was pretending, so he stepped forward to help him worriedly. His tentacles were icy cold, and there was a faint fragrance in front of him. : "Find a clean place to talk, it's not convenient here."

Fortunately, under the cover of night, Chen Yunzhi's blushing was not noticed, he helped Xiao Qinzhi slowly down the pier, put him into the boat, and said to the boatman: "You wait here for my younger brother to come back late, and let him find him at will. Xiao Langjun and I will go to Taihu Lake to see the scenery, and we will be back before tomorrow morning."

The boatman hesitated to speak, but finally he was stubborn. He reluctantly got off the boat and stared at the cabin.

Xiao Qinzhi was in the cabin and saw two flops, so he lay comfortably on the floppy that exuded the same fragrance as Chen Yunzhi's body. The other place was naturally Chen Tanzhi's. Xiao Qinzhi didn't like Chen Tanzhi. , so disdain to lie down.

In the darkness of night, Chen Yunzhi stood at the stern of the boat and sailed slowly along the inland river to Taihu Lake on the west side.
