Chapter 7: Drunk
The glory of the silver moon shines on the earth, making the night brighter! There are still lights in Yanghe Town, and big red lanterns are hung at the doors of taverns, teahouses and shops on the streets.
People from wealthy families in the town were kneading melon seeds in the teahouse, drinking tea and watching a play on the stage! The drinkers in the tavern would ask for two taels of wine, and make two plates of wine and food to listen to the storytellers telling the latest news.
"That's right, Yue Fei fought with the Jin soldiers in a row in order to welcome the Two Saints! One battle after another, he would win every battle. He fought directly to Jieting, and he was about to break through the Jin soldiers and welcome the Two Saints back..."
"Oh, what are you here?"
Guo Xiaowu carried the load and followed Li Dazhu into a tavern, and the waiter standing at the door greeted him.
"I need two taels of pot heads for one person, two pounds of beef for a plate of peanuts and two pounds of beef." Li Dazhu responded.
"Please, please come from the two of you." The waiter led the two into the pub and sat down at the empty table.
Guo Xiaowu, who put down his pick, grinned and beat his hands with a sore shoulder, and asked, "When will we get home if we keep going like this?"
"Let's go back along the path and you can get there in five or six days! You are born with cleverness. At that time, you may not have to walk at night, but you are afraid you will encounter strong people.
Drink some wine tonight to relieve fatigue, and we will leave tomorrow morning." Li Dazhu responded.
"My 2nd master, your wine and food! You still need a greeting." The waiter dragged the tray and placed the wine and food on the table.
"There is a place to live here. My brothers and I will take a break tonight." Li Dazhu asked.
"There are drunk people in the tavern who can't come back home. We have a house for a single room! The separate room is a bit expensive, with fifty copper coins a night, and a shared shop in the big room, ten copper coins a day." The waiter responded.
"If you have a separate room, you can have a good rest." Li Dazhu said.
"Okay, I'll make arrangements now." The waiter said and turned around and left.
The entire tavern was quiet, with more than 20 tables almost full, and groups of three or five were gathered together to taste the wine and food, listening to the storyteller telling the deeds of the ancients.
"Then Qin Hui knew that he would lose authority when he welcomed the two saints! So he told the little emperor that he was so powerful that he was shocked. How would he, the emperor, do when these two saints come back?
So, under Qin Hui's instigation, the little emperor gave Yue Fei the first gold medal regardless of the national humiliation..."
"What a good Yue Wumu, this is the real hero. In the face of national justice! Personal honor and disgrace are not desirable. We must put the overall situation first and win back the two saints. Not only can we defeat the Jin soldiers, but we can also stabilize the country.
Once Yue Fei dies, the Song Dynasty will be over.
Qin Hui ignored the national humiliation for his own selfish desires, and there was no rival to the Jin soldiers." A drunkard said angrily.
"Oh, this master! You are more thorough than my storytelling analysis. Yue Fei was tattooed with four big words "Loyalty to the country" by his mother. He protects the great Song Dynasty and the dawn of the world." The storyteller bowed his hand and said.
After hearing this, Li Dazhu smiled slightly, filled his wine cup with wine, raised his head and drank it all! Then he looked at Guo Xiaowu and said, "Wine can relieve fatigue, you will have to drink a few sips, so you can sleep well."
"Yue Fei is a national hero, he is really loyal and courageous." Guo Xiaowu said, pouring himself wine and tilting his head to drink it. The hot feeling of the wine entering his mouth and the throat reached his stomach, and it felt much warmer.
"We can't control who Yue Fei is. What we can control now is that we can return home safely. Talk less and drink more, and wait for the road to go home early tomorrow morning." Li Dazhu said.
"Oh! That Qin Hui is really not a thing." Guo Xiaowu agreed, but was still worried about Qin Hui's dissatisfaction with the assassination of Yue Fei.
Whether it is a storyteller or a listener, he loses his temper when he hears anger and dissatisfaction! It is purely for the concern of the ancients. Li Dazhu looked at Guo Xiaowu's angry look and laughed.
The storyteller was also talking about Yue Fei's deeds. Guo Xiaowu's drinking a few glasses of wine became more and more angry as he heard it! The two taels of wine in his hand were also cleaned up by him, and he began to get drunk.
"Brother Dazhu, is that national humiliation that Qin Hui doesn't know? Why did he stop Yue Fei and harm him?" Guo Xiaowu asked in a red eye full of drunkenness.
"Xiao Wuzi, you are drunk. Yue Fei was in ancient times and it has nothing to do with you." Li Dazhu persuaded. At this time, the wine and food had been eaten, and he walked over to support Guo Xiaowu, who was already standing unsteadily.
"Second master, please come upstairs!" said the waiter.
"I'll ask you, why didn't Qin Hui know the national humiliation? He harmed Yue Fei, who was loyal to the country!?" Guo Xiaowu asked again, and he slapped the table hard with a "bang"! His whole body trembled violently in his anger.
"Why did Qin Hui harm Yue Fei?" Guo Xiaowu broke away from Li Dazhu's arm that was being supported by him and asked again! His body swayed in anger, almost unsteady to stand and squat on the ground.
"This man is really a wonderful person." The waiter went up and quickly went up to help.
"My brother has been reading and knows more principles! After drinking some wine, I felt uncomfortable after listening to Yue Wumu's murder." Li Dazhu explained.
The guests in the entire tavern, as well as the storyteller, were staring at Guo Xiaowu! The drunk people were all slutty, but they really couldn't explain the drunkenness of this little brother.
Just as the waiter said, this little brother is really a wonderful person.
"My second brother helps me, my brother, to move upstairs and I will pick up the pick." Li Dazhu instructed.
"Why do you want to harm Yue Fei? Don't you care about national hatred and family hatred?" Guo Xiaowu got drunk and he read a lot of books! But he couldn't understand why Yue Fei had such a miserable end.
"I said it was Qin Hui who was afraid of losing his power and fooling the little emperor." After Guo Xiaowu went upstairs, a drunkard said.
"People say that being with the king is like being with a tiger, but the little emperor is unwilling to do so." Another drinker retorted.
The drinkers started to discuss, and they were all self-righteous conclusions! But no one could argue with each other, and under the regulation of the storyteller, they calmed down.
The drunk Guo Xiaowu was frustrated and stupid in his study! He was also a soldier, and he wanted to be a person like Yue Wumu. People say that a hero came from troubled times, and Guo Xiaowu wanted to be this hero.
"Okay, okay! Although Yue Fei is wronged, he is famous for thousands of times. You and I are all ordinary people. What's the use of calling for wronged Yue Wumu??" Li Dazhu entered the room, put down the burden and blocked the door! He covered Guo Xiaowu, who was drunk on the bed, and persuaded him.
"The anger was rushing to the crown, and the rain stopped on the railing. Looking up at the sky, the long roar of awesomeness, the strong heart was fierce. Thirty fame, dust and soil, eight thousand miles of clouds and moon. Don't wait, the young man's head was white, and he was sad.
The shame of Jingkang has not yet been achieved. When will the hatred of the ministers be destroyed? Drive a long cart and break through the Helan Mountains. Ambitions are hungry to eat the meat of the barbarians, laugh at the thirst and drink the blood of the Huns. Wait until you turn back, clean up the old mountains and rivers, and go to the sky."
