The Song Dynasty has been deliberate for 16 years, only to know that it is the Water Margin

Chapter 626: Take advantage of the situation and turn against the guests

The sky is clear and the sun is shining outside. It's a nice weather.

Zhao Tong held the carved white jade bead chain in his hand and looked at it carefully.

Although the style is simple, it is gentle and exquisite, which is quite a good object.

Huo Xuanji looked at it curiously: "What is it used for?"

Zhao Tong pondered for a moment and explained the purpose of the bead chain, and then recounted Wanyan Baohua's story in detail.

Huo Xuanji: "Haha!"

Zhao Tong said: "It's a nice day today. Can you come with me to send the pearl necklace?"

Huo Xuanji said: "I'll go."

She has always been brief in her speech. She used to not even use words to express her meaning. She only used the word "haha" to express whether she was happy or happy.

Zhao Tong took Bai Ao and Lu Da with him, and the four of them went to Jinguo Street not far from the palace.

He did not ride a horse, but just strolled forward. Zhao Tong asked Huo Xuanji: "How are you doing in martial arts?"

Huo Xuanji said: "I can't beat you."

Zhao Tong smiled and reached out to touch the little girl's head. Suddenly he felt that she had grown up after all, so he retracted his hand.

Huo Xuanji: "Why don't you touch it?"

Zhao Tong sighed: "It was better when I was a kid, but now..."

Huo Xuanji: "Haha..."

There is a pastry shop next to it. Fresh pastries are being baked at this time, and the smell wafts out, which is very tempting.

Zhao Tong couldn't help but stopped, and Bai Ao said: "Young Master wants to have some snacks, I'll go in and buy them."

Zhao Tong thought for a while: "I don't think it's good to go empty-handed. Since I'm making compensation, it would be nice to bring some gifts. Let's go in and see if there are any more exquisite cakes."

Huo Xuanji said: "The four rites must be complete."

Zhao Tong: "...?"

Several people entered the shop, and the aroma inside was even stronger. There were all kinds of cakes and cakes on the shelves in front, including ones made from cow's milk and goat's milk and honey, lard preserves, and all kinds of seasonal fruits.

Zhao Tong nodded. To be able to open a shop in a place like Jinguo Street, there are indeed some special methods. Otherwise, let alone the goods are really not good, even if they are slightly worse and the variety is not complete, then it may be difficult to make money. After all, every inch of land here is precious. , the high rent will crush the merchants.

He turned around and asked Bai Ao: "That wine shop is also so neat. Does it have all kinds of wine?"

Bai Ao was stunned when he heard this. He really hadn't thought about this: "Master, that house...that house doesn't have many names, it only has large vats of loose wine and jars of wine."

"Only these two types?" Zhao Tong frowned. This is too simple. How could a wine shop on Jinguo Street only have these two types? How to make money with a single wine list?

"Indeed, there are only these two types. I have checked the counter and found no famous old wine. Even the jars are just randomly labeled with red paper. However... the wine smells very strong and fragrant. It must be homemade."

"Rich and fragrant, made at home?" Zhao Tao took a breath. This should be a so-called old shop, but it is not a time-honored brand. It may have been made for a long time and only sells a unique taste.

Bai Ao said: "My subordinate doesn't drink much on weekdays. He only smells and applauds. Tieniu often drinks. He stands in the wine vat and doesn't smell the smell. He can hold back and remain silent."

Zhao Tong smiled and said: "That should be good. If you are really optimistic about it later, I will buy a few jars and go back."

"Flower cake." Huo Xuanji suddenly said from the side.

Zhao Tong turned around and saw her standing in a daze in front of a plate of freshly baked petal cakes.

"Want to eat?" Zhao Tong asked.

"Yeah." Huo Xuanji nodded.

"Man..." As soon as Zhao Tong finished speaking, the clerk from the store came over.

"What kind of snacks do you want, sir?" The waiter wanted to say hello when everyone came in. After all, he looked like he was a big customer because of his dress, but the other party was talking to each other and it was not inconvenient to disturb them, so he kept waiting.

Zhao Tong stretched out his hand and said, "Wrap this flower cake."

"Eat now." Huo Xuanji said.

"Okay... let's eat. I've already taken this piece. I'll wrap it up after eating." Zhao Tongxin asked, did the little girl not eat in the morning?
The waiter took this opportunity to chat and hurriedly introduced other pastries, and also interspersed the origins of some pastries. He was very diligent, especially at the end he emphasized that the owner of the shop is a Han, not a Khitan or other foreign race.

Zhao Tong smiled and responded to every word, but also felt that so many tricks were not something that Khitan could do.

"Still eating that..." Huo Xuanji spoke again.

Zhao Tong followed her gaze and saw it was candied date cake: "Well... eat it."

The boy tried to test: "Young Master, let's see what kind you want. I'll wrap it up first, so that I won't be busy and waste your time."

“I want that too…” Huo Xuanji pointed at the honey puff pastry.

Hearing this, Zhao Tong reached out and touched his chin, then looked at the little girl: "Can you finish eating?"

Huo Xuanji was stunned and did not answer. Instead, she turned her eyes and looked at the peach blossom cake: "I'll eat this too."

The guy looked a little stupid when he saw this, and thought: Do you want all this? You have to pack it quickly, otherwise it will be really busy in a while.

Zhao Tong squinted his eyes and saw that Huo Xuanji ordered seven or eight more kinds in a moment. He couldn't help but cough slightly: "Why didn't I see you like eating cakes so much when I was in Tokyo?"

Huo Xuanji didn't speak, her face was expressionless, she just looked at him with one eye.

Zhao Tong thought for a while and said to the waiter: "Go and call your boss over..."

Half an hour later, a group of people walked out of the snack shop, and there was a fat man behind them who saw them off with a flattering look on their face.

Zhao Tong bought the entire dim sum shop, and the fat man was demoted from the owner of the dim sum shop to the shopkeeper. However, he was very willing because the price offered by the other party was so high that he didn't even want to bargain for fear of it. If the other party regrets it, he agrees directly.

Bai Ao and Luda each carried two oil paper bags with four-color snacks inside. Huo Xuanji held a flower cake and ate it while walking. It didn't take long to arrive in front of the wine shop.

Zhao Tong raised his head and looked at the wine flag above. This flag was actually old, not new. It had been exposed to wind and rain for several years.

Look at the door lintel and pillars of the wine shop. They are all covered with pulp, indicating that they are even older.

At this time Ruda took a deep breath: "The wine smells good!"

Zhao Tong asked: "Is it good wine?"

"Sir, the wine is indeed good. A drink with this kind of aroma will definitely not be bad."

Zhao Tao nodded, and he also smelled the fragrant and slightly smoky aroma. The wine at this time had no spices added, and it was all natural and mellow.

Then after entering the door, the clerk Bai Ao had met that day came up to him: "You guys want to... ah, it turns out you are the guest officer."

Bai Ao smiled and said, "Is Miss Li Zhi here? My young master comes to see her."

"Young master?" The waiter glanced at Zhao Tong, and then said hurriedly: "Here you are, busy loading the wine in the back, I called her over."

Watching the waiter go out the back door, Zhao Tao glanced at the scene inside the shop. It was indeed simple. It can't be said that there are no such wine shops, but almost all of them opened in side streets and did not do business in the bustling areas of the main street. There were too few categories for sale, and we couldn't handle the crowds. We had to sell to neighbors, and we couldn't make it big.

Ruda walked to the big wine vat, opened the lid wrapped in coarse gauze, picked up the bucket and gave it a quick tap, then poured it into his mouth as fast as he could, and then closed the lid again. "How?" Zhao Tong asked.

"Sir, this wine is not bad!" Ruda swallowed it, then bared his teeth and said: "It has more flavor than some famous old wine shops. It is not only strong enough, but also more mellow."

In this way, the wine shop is not a big problem. Zhao Yu pondered for a moment. If Ruda said the wine is good, then it means it is really good. He only sells one kind of good wine. If he gets tired of his reputation over the years, he will buy some from restaurants on the street. , but it can be maintained.

Then it depends on whether people have problems, but people have problems!
How could a small wine shop clerk have a foundation in martial arts?

As a great master, Zhao Tong is already at the pinnacle of martial arts in the world, and he also practices the Everlasting Eternal Spring Kung Fu, which can be seen by anyone who has practiced martial arts at a glance.

The guy who went to call people from behind had practiced martial arts, and he had more than just scratched the surface.

"Who is looking for me?" While he was thinking, a girl named Xiao Lizhi came out of the back door and saw Zhao Tong: "So it's you."

Zhao Tong looked at her with her sleeves rolled up, revealing her white forearms, but her hands were covered with grains of rice. She must have been sifting wine just now.

Although steamed wine was available at this time, it was still mainly fermented rice wine. The steamed wine had a higher alcohol content and was delicious in the military, but ordinary people were still not used to it.

The old rice wine is divided into new and old. The old rice wine is sifted clean and clear, and a few more steps are added to seal it so that it will not go sour. The new rice wine is sold and sifted immediately. If it is not sold for a long time, it will become sour and cannot be drunk anymore.

Zhao Tong looked at the girl and said with a smile: "Miss Li Zhi, the bead necklace has been made. I sent it to the girl. I also bought a few boxes of snacks for the girl. I will be my subordinate to make amends that day."

Xiao Lizhi's face turned red: "I didn't expect you to be trustworthy, but I was rude with my words that day. You, sit down while I wash my hands and make tea for you."

"No need to go to such trouble, just talk." Zhao Tong said politely, but seeing the waiter move the stool, he sat directly on it.

Xiao Lizhi filled a basin of water, washed away the rice grains, then took out a small stove from behind the counter and started making tea.

Zhao Tong held the bead necklace in his hand and said, "Miss Li Zhi, see if it's different from the original one?"

Xiao Lizhi came over and took the bead chain, his face turned red unconsciously: "I'm sorry to trouble you, sir, it doesn't seem to be much different."

"Isn't it much different from the childhood sweetheart?" Zhao Tong nodded: "That's good, otherwise in the future your friend will find that he has become a different one when he returns, it will be really self-defeating, and it may even cause misunderstandings."

"He, he may not be able to come back..." Xiao Li lowered his head slightly and said.

"Why do you say this?"

"He is a painter. He was kidnapped by the Jurchens and went to work in Huining. The Jurchens are short of craftsmen of all kinds and will not let him back to Zhongjing. I want to rescue him, but I don't know where he is in Huining. My martial arts is not worthy of mention. It's too high, I'm afraid we may not be able to save him..."

"I see..." Zhao Tong nodded: "It doesn't matter. I can help Miss Xiao save your friend, as long as your friend is still alive when the time comes."

"Ah?" Xiao Lizhi was stunned for a moment when he heard this. Why is there something wrong with this?

This is different from what Gu Shen told her. Gu Shen said that this person has a special hobby, but it doesn't seem like it when he talks about it. Could it be... could he be pretentious?

"Why is Miss Xiao looking like this?" Zhao Tong looked at Xiao Lizhi's appearance and asked calmly.

"Young master, are you kidding me?" Xiao Lizhi hurriedly showed a look of disbelief: "The Kingdom of Jin is powerful, the Jurchens are fierce, and Huining's walls are tight. How can you save the master?"

"This is not easy. Destroy the Jin Kingdom, destroy the Jurchens, kill Wanyan, and you will naturally be able to save your childhood sweetheart!" Zhao Tong said with a smile.

"This, how is this possible?" Xiao Lizhi felt a little unnatural when he heard this.

"Miss Li Zhi, my young master is His Majesty the Regent of the Qin Dynasty. The Yanjing before and the Zhongjing at this moment were all captured by your Majesty's troops. Then they will attack the capital again, and then the soldiers will attack the northeast, and the horses will trample on the white mountains and black waters!"

"The regent of the Qin Dynasty, a horse trampling on white mountains and black waters?" These words were within Gushen's expectation. She had words to respond, but she just said that she wanted to help her save her childhood sweetheart, and she really didn't know how to respond.

"Okay, okay, don't scare Miss Xiao." Zhao Tong said, stretching his arm back. Huo Xuanji handed over the gold-painted folding fan in time, but her little mouth curled up.

"You, are you really the emperor of Qin?" Xiao Lizhi said with "shock" on his face.

Zhao Tong shook his fan: "How can such a thing be faked? Don't worry, Miss Xiao. Given time, I will call Huining and I will definitely save your childhood sweetheart and reunite you. If your childhood sweetheart is already dead, then I will I will kill Wanyan Wu Qingmai to avenge you."

"Then kill Yan Zonghan again!"

"Kill Yan Zongbi!"

"Kill Yan Zongqian!"

"Kill Yan Xiyin!"

"..."

Zhao Tong said while observing Xiao Lizhi's expression. Judging from the martial arts skills of the wine shop clerk, this was most likely a game, done by the Jurchens and planned by Wanyan Xiyin behind the scenes.

This Xiao Lizhi looked so similar to Baohua that even if she was not the daughter of Wanyan Aguda, she was most likely from the Jin Kingdom clan. He wanted to test her word by word to see which family she came from.

At this time, Xiao Lizhi still had a dumbfounded expression, and Zhao Tong continued:
"Kill Wanyan Xieye!"

"Kill Wanyan Chala!"

"I'll make up for all your beauty..."

"..."

Well, something seems wrong, it seems not directly...

Seeing that Xiao Lizhi was motionless, Zhao Tong felt that if the other party was really from the Jurchen clan, then it was not A Guda's branch, that is to say, it was not a member of A Guda's father Wanyan Qilibo's lineage.

Zhao Tong sneered and continued: "Not only will we kill all the contemporary Wanyan, but we will also dig out the bones of those who have died long ago and spread their ashes!"

"The impeacher of perfect appearance!"

"Wanyan Jingduhe!"

"Wan Yan is very beautiful!"

"Wanyan Yingge!"

Um? When Zhao Tong talked about Wanyan Yingge, he noticed an imperceptible tremor in Xiao Lizhi's shoulders.

Wanyan Yingge is the uncle of Wanyan Aguda. He has three sons. I don’t know the number of grandchildren, but two of them are the most famous, namely Wanyan Yinshu Ke and Wanyan Balisu.

He paused briefly, and then said in a gloomy voice: "Those who died on the battlefield cannot be allowed to rest in peace!"

"Wanyan Yanmu!"

"Wan Yan Lou's room!"

"Wanyan Yin Shu is amazing!"

When Xiao Lizhi heard that Wanyan Yin Shu was capable, his body trembled imperceptibly.

Zhao Tong narrowed his eyes and read a few more names before he stopped.

He had already remembered why he felt the name Lizi was familiar. He had indeed seen this name when he was studying history...

Xiao Li Zhi, Li Zhi.

The sister of Wanyan who has great silver skills, Wanyan has a good temperament!
