Chapter 36: Drunk and beat the golden branch(1/2)
scold
bass
Two blows, two clean and neat blows.
Several sword-bearing guards sitting at Zhu Qingxuan's next table did indeed live up to their duties. Seeing that the chair continued to fly forward and was about to hit the princess, two people immediately stood up and took out the knife, and in the blink of an eye the chair fell off.
Princess Qingle did not show any surprise at all, because in her opinion, it was natural. If the guards around you couldn't even do this, why were you still taking them with you? Or... why were you still raising them?
However, this small episode at least interrupted Zhu Qingsheng's rhythm of getting angry, making her calm down a little.
"Hu..." The next second, Zhu Qingxian took a deep breath, swallowed the few unpleasant words that were already ready to go, and changed into a somewhat false smile.
Lin Yuancheng saw this smile for the first time, but Zhang Jiqing had seen it many times, so Old Zhang understood that this was not a good sign for Lin Yuancheng.
Just now, Zhu Qinglong really turned his face and said that Lin Yuancheng made him unhappy. He made a princess temper at him, then told him to get out, or even attacked him. This was nothing... Because of this impulsive anger, it was the fastest to vent, and he would vent after venting.
But after a moment of hesitation, Zhu Qingsheng endured the anger, and this anger that was endured and hidden behind the smile was another matter.
"Ha, Brother Lin." Sure enough, Zhu Qingsheng had already thought about it when he smiled, "When you came here just now, you said you were coming to 'please ask for a drink', right?"
Lin Yuancheng was also stunned when he heard this. He didn't know why Zhu Qingsheng brought the topic back to what he said when he first said hello. In fact, "please ask for a cup of wine", "please ask for a cup of tea", "please ask for advice", "how many cups to drink together" are all clichés, and they are used to politely talk between strangers, not for the sake of what is in the words.
But since Zhu Qingsheng asked this, Lin Yuancheng had to answer: "Uh...yes..."
"Okay!" Zhu Qingsheng did not mean to let the other party continue the conversation. She immediately interrupted Xiaolin and turned to the guards at the next table and said, "Ah Wu and Liu, hurry up and get a few jars of wine.
This "A Wu A Liu" is not the real name.
Normally, a princess wouldn't be able to remember the names of a group of guards who were called out to protect her temporarily.
But Zhu Qing was very different, she really remembered it.
Although Zhu Qingxian only heard Zhang Jilan say the names of the eight sword-bearing guards on the adjacent table quickly before leaving the palace, she remembered them all, and she could match everyone's name and appearance.
But...even if I remember, when I really give orders, she still has to use the title "A Wu A Liu A Qi A Ba"; because it is risky to report the real name of the guard.
There are risks for these guards themselves and for yourself...
"Yes, young master." A Wu and A Liu were decreed, and without saying a word, Nuo said, and turned around and headed to the nearest counter.
Maybe someone is asking, isn’t Ma Er and Huang Donglai and his group fighting? Then the lobby of this inn should be in chaos now. In this case, can A Wu and A Liu still buy wine?
Then I can only say that this is not a question of whether it can be...
Now is the princess who ordered you to go, or "quickly", dare you not go?
Not to mention that there are only hooligans fighting in this store now, even if it is a sea of swords and fire, you have to bite the bullet.
Besides, for these sword-bearing guards, the task of "geting a few jars of wine back" is not very difficult.
First of all, we have also mentioned in the previous article that the lobby space of Baoyuan Inn is very large. The area where the fight between the thugs under Ma Er and Huang Donglai and others cannot cover the entire lobby. At most, it is concentrated in the area at the gate.
Secondly, in such a large lobby, there must be more than one counter, but there are many places. Each counter has a shopkeeper and a wine cabinet. Even if the counter at the front door is smashed and the guy is beaten, there are still others.
Third, with Awu and Aliu's martial arts, it may not be too cheap to face the masters of the martial arts world, but it is more than enough to just take a few jars of wine and pass through a group of ordinary hooligans fighting.
In short, they came back with two jars of wine.
"Young Master, the wine has been brought here." As Awu and Aliu said, he had already arranged the four jars of old wine on the two tables next to him.
"Don't stand there and serve the drink for Young Master Lin." When Zhu Qingsheng said this, his eyes stared at Lin Yuancheng with his eyes fixed on him, and his expression still seemed to be smiling.
But her words "showing wine" made the guards difficult.
How should we understand the word "口"? Should we help Mr. Lin pour the wine into a bowl, or serve it in a cup? Or... put the jar in front of him and let him pour it himself?
Fortunately, Lao Zhang saw the hesitation of the guards and immediately said to Zhu Qingsheng: "Young master, they are thick-handed and thick-legged, so let the old slave come."
"Yes." Zhu Qingsheng nodded.
After Zhang Jilan got permission, he quickly stepped forward and came to the guards' table. He followed him and his hands came out, instantly lifting the seals of two wine jars.
Because he covered his body with his body and moved very quickly, Lin Yuancheng did not see that when he opened the wine jar, Lao Zhang had quietly put some powder into the wine jar on his right.
After a breath, Lao Zhang turned around and returned to the table of the princess and Xiaolin. He placed the jar of wine he held in his right hand directly in front of Lin Yuancheng, then held another jar with both hands and carefully poured a small cup for the princess.
"Young Master, Young Master Lin, please use it." After doing this, Zhang Jilan stood aside, stopped sitting down, and acted as if he wanted to serve the two people in front of him throughout the whole process.
"Brother Lin." Zhu Qingsheng also picked up the small cup in front of him and said to Lin Yuancheng with a smile, "I respect you."
Everyone, she only said "I respect you" and did not say a cup, but a jar.
At this moment, even if Lin Yuancheng reacted slowly, he should have seen that this "Young Master" was making things difficult for him.
But people are in the world and the bars have been lifted here. What can you do?
Say, "You wait a moment, I'll find a cup to come back first"?
Although such a shameful thing is just like breathing for Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai, Lin Yuancheng still has a bit of idol burden and needs some face, so he can't do it.
So, at this moment, Xiaolin also met Zhu Qingsheng's gaze with a provocative look, and responded in a somewhat rushing tone: "Okay, Lin will accept your love."
After saying that, he raised the jar with his right hand, held the bottom with his left hand, and poured the jar of old wine into his throat with a gulp.
Zhu Qingxian, who was holding the wine glass, was a little at a loss when she saw this scene. She originally wanted to see the other party lose her composure when she was being made difficult, but she didn't expect that the boy would not change his face and choose to drink it hard. So... she, holding a glass of wine in her hand, wouldn't she look embarrassed?
"Hmph..." Now, Zhu Qingxian was angry. She had to drink the cup in her hand in a depressed manner without saying a word. She didn't know whether it was the alcohol coming quickly or the blood rushing, but her cheeks soon rose a little red.
As for Lin Yuancheng, it didn't take too long to finish drinking this jar, just a few dozen seconds.
Oh, let's just add a little bit here. While Kobayashi and the princess were drinking here, the fight in the lobby continued. Just a few meters away, there were still chaos, weapons fighting each other, tables and chairs flying, screaming and screaming... However, the eight guards next to them blocked the people and the things flying in; after all, the thugs under Ma Er were not targeting other guests, and when they saw the eight strong men standing there, they would not come to provoke them.
Let’s talk about Lin Yuancheng…
When he put down the jar of wine, Kobayashi's face was obviously uncomfortable.
In addition to the effects of alcohol and drugs, there is also a large part of the reason for this. He drank too much water in a short period of time, and there would be slight water poisoning and his stomach would be a little unbearable.
"Brother Lin is so drunk." Zhu Qingxuan looked at the other party and said in a rather cold tone.
"It's okay, Brother Qing is happy." Although Lin Yuancheng's tone was quite stable when he said this, the spirit of drinking had already risen at this time, which made his head dizzy.
Fortunately, Kobayashi was sitting at the moment. If he stood, he might have fallen.
Speaking of which, Lin Yuancheng was not lucky. When Awu and Aliu went to the counter to get the wine, the four jars that he had just brought back were all full of strong wine. Even though the degree of the strong wine at that time was not very high, it was still a tough jar.
Besides, that Zhang Jile was still medicine in the wine...
Lao Zhang’s idea is very simple: I don’t know how well you are in Lin Yuancheng’s manner in life. I only know that once the princess makes any mistakes, no one here can afford it, so I would rather use more means than take risks to make the princess more dangerous.
Therefore, Zhang Jilan didn't care whether Zhu Qingsheng could do it or not today or whether he would fight Lin Yuancheng. He only knew that he would first find an opportunity to weaken the opponent's combat power to a completely controllable range, so that he could be safe.
So what medicine did Lin Yuancheng get given up now?
It's not a poison that kills life, it's just a drug that can aggravate the effects of alcohol.
In the palace, eunuchs had this type of medicine in their hands. In addition to being drunk, they naturally had sleepy, aphrodisiacs, calming, uncomfortable, etc.
These things are essential means of palace fighting and are very useful in many cases: for example, today the emperor wants a certain eunuch to not like his concubines to serve him, so they can deliberately stumble him and add some sleep-promoting medicine to the emperor's tea. In this way, before the summoned concubine comes, the emperor is already asleep. Then halfway through, he can only invite you back. It is hard to say when the emperor will remember this concubine next time, and it is possible in the next life.
Get back to the point...
Now that Lin Yuancheng said, "It's good that you're happy", Zhu Qinglong's face turned even redder.
To her, this was so harsh.
Because the meaning of this is "Although you make things difficult for me, I don't care about you, are you satisfied?"
"Brother Lin, but I'm still unhappy." Zhu Qingxian also took advantage of the alcohol and no matter what kind of demeanor, he simply took advantage of the situation.
"Oh? Did I offend Brother Qing if I did anything?" Lin Yuancheng couldn't hold on when he asked this. The expression on his face and the tone of his speech were gradually showing signs of drunkenness.
"Yes, but I don't want to say it out." Zhu Qingsheng said.
"Why?" Lin Yuancheng said.
"I said it, I look stingy." Zhu Qingsheng said.
"Ha... I won't ask." Lin Yuancheng smiled. The drunken feeling gradually numbed his brain, making his emotions more and more difficult to control, but it also made the boy's eyebrows a little more casual and casual.
"You want to 'given me' again, right?" Zhu Qingsheng saw that he was indifferent and became even more angry. At this time, she actually grabbed the jar of wine close to her and drank several large mouthfuls at the mouth of the jar.
Zhang Jiling watched from the side, trying to stop him, but he didn't dare, but the cold sweat had already come down.
"Oh... Brother Qing, actually, Lin came to find you, and there was no other meaning. He just saw your butler Zhang, Gao Jue, and wanted to talk to him. It would be best if he could talk to him..." Lin Yuancheng didn't fight any more puzzles with the other party. He felt that his head was getting more and more confused, and he directly said, "You are not happy, and you are also saying something I will let you go. I really don't know what you think... I can only say that if there is any offense, it is all about Lin's fault. I hope Brother Qing will forgive me."
As soon as this said, Zhu Qingsheng and Zhang Jiling suddenly realized: It turned out that this kid's series of actions just now was like this...
Zhang Jilan immediately said in a secret surprise: "How did he see that I was 'high swordsmanship'? I have never shown my martial arts in front of him."
Zhu Qingsheng understood, but he didn't completely disappear.
A few seconds later, Zhu Qingxian suddenly stood up and said, "A Da, take my sword."
As the Da followed the order and quickly glanced at Zhang Jiliang. After getting a positive look, he sent a long sword in his custody to the princess.
Zhu Qingxuan held the sword in his hand and looked at Lin Yuancheng and scolded softly: "Okay, Lin Yuancheng, I won't make things difficult for you anymore. You can compete with Lao Zhang. You can play two moves with me first and fight me, so I will let him fight you."
"Ha..." Lin Yuancheng stood up with a smile. Although he was already drunk and shaking, he replied confidently, "A word is certain..."
"Listen, you are not allowed to take action before I and Young Master Lin decide the winner!" Zhu Qingsheng put his hand on the hilt of the sword while giving orders to Lao Zhang and the guards.
When she finished speaking, she shook her wrist and drew her sword, trying to attack and take the lead.
