Too Reckless

Walking out of the mansion on the south bank of Wende Bridge, Zuo Lingquan held an oil-paper umbrella and stood in the streets and alleys of the capital, where he was drunk with money.

There are many people in the capital, but no acquaintances. The second uncle also told me not to drink flower wine.

Zuo Lingquan pondered for a while, walked to the outside of the capital, and according to his memory, came to Linhefang near the water gate.

The water gate is the place where ships enter and leave the capital to load and unload goods. Most of the people gathered are from the three religions and nine classes, and among them, the most porters rely on their strength to eat.

It was late at night, and most of the shops in the small market near the dock were closed, and the neighborhood of the house destroyed by the beast was even more inaccessible. Only the casino and the alley in the distance were left, and the sound of joy was still resounding.

Zuo Lingquan walked along the street and came to the restaurant in the middle of the small street.

There was no sound in the tavern, and the banner with the word 'soup' written on it swayed in the night wind.

dong dong—

Zuo Lingquan stood at the door of the restaurant, raised his hand and knocked twice on the fastened door, but there was no response, so he raised his hand and knocked twice.

After a while, the door opened in the backyard of the restaurant, and the woman's sleepy voice came:

"Blind eyes? Didn't see the closing time? I want to drink and come tomorrow morning..."

"it's me."

"Who are you? Make it clear, let the neighbors hear, think that the old lady is stealing a man, and find her concubine and go to the alley in front..."

"I'm Xiao Zuo."

"Left what is left, I don't know each other, get out of here, I'll be back later..."

"…"

Seeing that the other party could not recognize his voice, Zuo Lingquan thought about it and said:

"I came to your shop for a drink in the morning and called your auntie that tall and handsome young man."

"Um?"

The proprietress clearly had a fresh memory of this, so she didn't speak any more, instead she heard footsteps coming in and out.

After a while, the door latch of the restaurant lobby was pulled open, Tang Jingxuan glanced from inside, and immediately revealed a bit of surprise:

"Master Zuo, why are you here? Didn't you get hurt during the day?"

The door opened, and Tang Jingshen revealed half of her figure, her long hair draped over her shoulders like a waterfall, and her dress was very tight, but it was difficult to hide the grandeur of her clothes. There was no makeup on her face. Like suet nephrite, a pair of plump lips adds a bit of natural softness.

Zuo Lingquan raised the corners of his mouth: "I'm not injured, I'm done with work, I want to find a place to have a drink, I don't know if Sister Tang is inconvenient?"

Tang Jingxuan just got up from the bed, her clothes were not neatly dressed, it must be inconvenient, but it is not good to refuse directly.

She looked at the sky outside, a little embarrassed:

"Well... I just fell asleep, and the snacks are gone..."

Zuo Lingquan was not too **** others, he stretched out his hand:

"That's fine, Sister Tang give me the silver, and I'll drink it elsewhere."

Tang Jing was stunned for a moment, then her eyes became cautious, and she glanced up and down:

"What kind of money do you want, son?"

"It was urgent during the day, so I gave Sister Tang 100 taels, but I didn't have time to get the change. A pot of wine and two dishes of side dishes add up to a maximum of three coins. Sister Tang has to ask me for ninety-nine taels."

?

Isn't that a reward?

Tang Jingxun blinked her eyes, seeing Zuo Lingquan's serious expression, not like a fake, her eyes were tangled, her hands were covering her clothes, and her lips were pursed. She was obviously embarrassed to be directly black, and she was a little reluctant. After thinking about it, she muttered in a low voice:

"Yeah, I thought it was a reward from the young master."

Zuo Lingquan grinned: "Sister Tang is doing serious business. I rashly offered a reward of 100 taels. Not only will you not accept it, but you will also beat me out as a prodigal son, right?"

It's a hammer, I'm too happy to be happy...

After all, Tang Jingxuan is not a black-hearted woman. After tangled, she turned around and took out the just-warmed silver note from her jacket, gritted her silver teeth, and handed it to Zuo Lingquan, making a generous appearance:

"Thank you, Mr. Bai Tian, ​​for your righteous help. That meal, I'll treat you as my sister's invitation."

Zuo Lingquan was quite interesting to see this seemingly generous but incomparably painful appearance. He took the silver note and looked left and right:

"Then I would like to thank Sister Tang for the hospitality. The shops on the street are closed. If Sister Tang can introduce me to a shop that can open at night, the one hundred taels will be regarded as the drink money."

What?

Tang Jingxuan was not a stupid woman, so she naturally understood what Zuo Lingquan meant when she heard this.

Although she was a little dissatisfied with Zuo Lingquan's teasing, people couldn't get along with Yinzi. She hesitated for a while, but she turned slightly to the side and said with a smile:

"In the middle of the night, there seems to be a liquor store on the street that can't open its doors. If you really want to drink, my sister has been called up by you anyway..."

Zuo Lingquan took advantage of the situation to enter the wine shop, and hooked the corner of his mouth:

"Then I'll harass Sister Tang."

"Hey, open the door to do business, how can you talk about it, sir, take a seat."

Tang Jingxuan tossed back and forth, but made herself a little embarrassed. She turned around and lit the oil lamp, opened the window, poured a pot of wine from the wine jar, and came to the wine table:

"The wine is cold, but the weather isn't cold either. The appetizers are gone. I'll go and prepare it for your son."

Zuo Lingquan simply wanted to drink and had no other requirements, so he shook his head and said:

"It's getting late, so there's no need to be so troublesome, I'll just have two drinks by myself."

There are no fresh vegetables in the backyard, and Tang Jingshen is not well prepared. Seeing this, he naturally nodded his head.

The drizzle outside the window, the lamp was empty, and a couple of men and women were left alone.

Tang Jingxuan stood in the shop and didn't go to prepare food. She couldn't just stare at Zuo Lingquan drinking, let alone drink with her. She thought about it, took a small bench, and sat at the entrance of the restaurant. , asked softly:

"In the daytime, Young Master seems to be from Zuo Shilang's family. Why do you come to Laihefang to drink at night?"

Linhefang is located near the wharf, where three religions and nine streams are mixed.

Zuo Lingquan took a sip from the wine bowl, shook his head and said:

"I'm going to choose a concubine in a few days. My family is busy and I want to find a quiet place to stay for a while."

Tang Jingxuan said strangely:

"It's a good thing for the eldest princess to choose a concubine. How many people are vying for each other, how can you use alcohol to relieve your worries? Are you afraid that you won't be selected?"

Zuo Lingquan was a little helpless: "Didn't Sister Tang say, I'm going, will the princess choose me?"

Tang Jingxun actually thought so in her heart, especially after Zuo Lingquan drew a knife to help her during the day, she felt that the princess would be blind if she didn't choose this chivalrous and courageous son.

"That's why you don't want to be?"

"What is there to be a concubine? Sister Tang lives in the capital for a long time. Don't you know what a concubine looks like?"

"…"

Tang Jing frowned and recalled that the concubine she had met had a high status, and she always greeted her when she went out. Anyone who saw her had to greet him politely.

However, Zuo Lingquan seems to have a very high status, and there are a lot of entourages here today, and the elders are still high-ranking members.

Although Tang Jingxuan doesn't understand the life of the concubine, the relationship between husband and wife can still be imagined.

The princess has a high position and authority, and it will definitely not be calculated according to the secular rule that men are superior to women. The wife is strong and the husband is weak, and the mother's family is strong and the in-law's family is weak. The husband will inevitably suffer from humiliation. Putting aside the respected status of the concubine, it seems that it is not much different from entering a family.

Thinking of this, Tang Jingxuan understood a little bit. She stood up, walked to the opposite side of the wine table and sat down, propping her cheeks with her hands, and sighed:

"Also, you are young, handsome, and highly skilled in martial arts. Your elders still hold important positions in officials. You will definitely stand out in other places, and you would go to be a concubine. Even if it is the consort of the eldest princess, it would be too aggrieved."

Zuo Lingquan finally heard a heart-warming sentence, but this matter is a foregone conclusion, we must go, it is not good to drag people to vomit. He chuckled lightly, changed the subject, and talked about something else:

"Sister Tang praised her badly, but she might not be selected if she wants to be. By the way, why does Sister Tang open a shop here by herself?"

When Tang Jingxun heard this, she shook her head and smiled:

"What else can I do? My parents died a long time ago, so I'm the only one left. I don't feel relieved to ask someone to help me, and there is no place to help me."

Zuo Lingquan's smile faded, a little apologetic:

"I'm sorry, I'm talking too much."

"It's nothing, everyone on the street knows that my relatives used to make things difficult for me. Thanks to Lao Zhang's warmheartedness, he scolded those people for a while, and then he calmed down."

Tang Jing pursed her lips and smiled, raised her finger and pointed to a building in the distance:

"Old Zhang lives over there. Don't look at him being serious. In fact, he is a good man. He almost had an accident on the street today.

Zuo Lingquan is just helping within his ability, UU reading www.uukanshu. com had nothing to be proud of, smiled at it, and asked again:

"Sister Tang should be older than me, why don't you find a reliable husband?"

Tang Jing frowned, seeing that Zuo Lingquan didn't mean to tease lightly, so she said in a playful tone:

"You're a teenage girl, isn't it a bit inappropriate to ask your sister if she is married?"

Zuo Lingquan was simply curious and had no other meaning. Seeing this, he raised his hand:

"It's me who offended me, but Sister Tang doesn't look like she can't get married, she's just curious."

Tang Jingxuan looked a little smug, raised her eyebrows, stood up, and sat back at the door again, looking like she didn't want to talk anymore.

Zuo Lingquan knew that he accidentally killed the sky, so he didn't want to talk any more. He got up to say goodbye after drinking the jug of wine.

It's just that Tang Jingxuan was sitting at the door of the restaurant, looking at the street in the rain curtain, vaguely, suddenly found a shadow moving beside the ruins where the beasts were making chaos during the day.

!

Tang Jingxuan was frightened badly during the day, with lingering fears in her heart, she stood up quickly, her face turned pale and ran to Zuo Lingquan's side. block in front of you.

Zuo Lingquan's face changed slightly, thinking that another beast was making trouble, he grabbed the sword on the table, and carefully stuck his head out of the window.

It was raining heavily on the small street, and the place where the accident happened during the day was a little far away. If you didn’t look carefully, you could only see a black shadow outside the house that was smashed by the beast. It moved slowly along the trace. Beast, more like a man walking slowly.

Zuo Lingquan breathed a sigh of relief. To be on the safe side, he asked Tang Jing to turn off the lights and close the door, then silently jumped out of the window and walked towards the figure...
