Chapter 66 Poisonous Wine

Yu Wen is very happy today in Wangxian Pavilion in Wangxian Tower. Perhaps it was the precipitation of the year's frustration in Sima Dengzhou that finally made him nirvana today. Thinking about the time when the Yu family was demoted a year ago, he was demoted from the governor of Ziqing to Sima Dengzhou. When he left office, a banquet was also held in Qingzhou. However, except for the butlers of the officials and servants who came with a little gift, few officials actually came. When they left Qingzhou City Gate, a carriage carried the family's wife and daughter, and he rode a green mule himself, and the rest were only two old Cangtou slaves.

Today is also a resignation banquet, but those who come to see him off are like mountains and seas, and gifts are piled up like mountains. Wangxianlou specially freed up the yard behind to pile up gifts. One yard is full, and the gifts have not been collected yet.

Those who knew each other and those who didn’t know each other came to toast. Yu Feng held the white porcelain wine glass with his hand and pointed it at his lips. He sucked the wine in the glass with a slight slap. He opened his lips and let out a breath. The smell of alcohol in his mouth was sprayed out of his nostrils, but he said unquestionable words: "I've got it done, come back!"

Seeing that Yu Wen was already a little drunk, Li Jing hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Mr., let's have some food first."

Yu Feng sat down with Li Jing's hand and held Li Jing's hand and said, "I'll leave today, but this time I will leave alone. Your teacher's wife, young mother, will stay in Penglai for the time being. When I settle down in Fengzhou, I will send someone to pick her up. During this period, although I have already asked King Zhao and Liu Jun to take care of her, my teacher's wife is still a little worried about young mother. This dead woman has been spoiled by me since she was a child and runs around like a man all day long. Especially after getting to know the princess with Penglai, the two of them are so crazy that they can't lose their fortunes. This time you have caused a lot of trouble with the Feng family. When the teacher is away, I hope you can take care of young mother."

"Take care of junior sister is a matter of duty, just..."

Yu Yan seemed to know what Li Jing was worried about. He looked at Li Jing and shook his head and sighed, "It would be a good thing that you came to Dengzhou a year ago. You were still unmarried at that time. Alas, maybe this is all fate. I know what you are worried about. You have a wife and your young mother has a marriage contract. This time she is left with her mother and daughter in Dengzhou because she doesn't want her to be related to the Lu family. The Lu family is now exiled. Maybe this year or next year, maybe the Lu family will file for a break-up by themselves."

"Mr., the Lu family was unrighteous at the beginning, why didn't the mentor take the initiative to withdraw from such a kiss? Now the Lu family has been completely overturned and there is no chance to get up again. Does the mentor really have to wait for the other party to withdraw from the bride first? What if they refuse to withdraw from the bride, will the mentor watch the junior sister jump into the fire pit?" Li Jing was a little confused about Yu Wen's thoughts.

"Many things are not as simple as you think. Although my Yu family made a comeback this time, how many people are actually watching me. If I propose to withdraw from the marriage, it is reasonable, but if someone is interested in writing this article, it will also make me unfavorable to my Yu family. The Yu family now looks at the scenery on the outside, but in fact, it is walking on the edge of a cliff. If you take a wrong step, you may fall into the abyss. And if you fall again this time, you will never be able to get up again."

"Hey, if the Lu family doesn't take the initiative to withdraw from the marriage, then I'll just drag it down. I'm just sorry for that girl. There's a saying that teacher didn't want to say, but I'll say it today. I know that girl may have some feelings for you. You are still very good boy, but it's a pity that you are not destined to be together."

Li Jing felt a very strange feeling in his heart. He seemed to feel a little relaxed after hearing this, but also a little angry, and even heavier.

After a while, he bit his lip and said, "Please don't worry, my teacher, I will treat my junior sister like a real sister."

Yu Feng seemed a little surprised and a little relieved to Li Jing's promise so quickly. He patted Li Jing's hand and said, "I see that you are a person with great ambitions. If you have ideas in your heart, try to do it. Good men should not be trapped in a small place. If today is a matter of trouble, it is the time for you to be able to do it. Women and feelings should not be bound by them. Abandon these, you can go further."

After talking to Li Jing, Yu Feng seemed a little tired. He said a few words to a few people who came to toast and drank a few glasses of wine, and asked Li Jing to help him into a room behind to rest. When he returned to the pavilion, he saw Feng Liang and a few young people surrounding Cui Yunqing and others. Li Jing hurried over, but found Feng Liang knelt in front of Cui Yunqing and said, "Yesterday, my nephew was reckless and did a reckless thing. He shouldn't have pulled Li Sanlang to fight, and he shouldn't have secretly fired crossbow arrows to him. Yesterday, my uncle had already taught his nephew a lesson. Today, he apologized to the envoy, and hurt his disciple. Please forgive me."

When the wine was raised to Cui Yunqing, Cui Yunqing looked at Feng Liang, and finally answered the wine in front of everyone. When Li Jing saw this scene in the distance, he always felt something was wrong. Feng Yanqing was very arrogant and arrogant before, and he didn't take Cui Yunqing and Li Xian seriously at all. Now Feng Liang is kneeling here to toast and apologize. Which of the uncles and nephews are playing?

Suddenly a thought flashed through Li Jing's mind, and Li Jing was shocked and angry. Could it be that the wine was poisonous? This is unlikely. Uncle and nephew Feng Liang were really crazy? Last night, he sent a killer to assassinate him, but today he wanted to poison Cui Yunqing? He really dared?

Although Li Jing tried to convince himself that Feng Liang could not do that, Li Jing was still worried. He squeezed through the crowd, strode in front of Feng Liang, and took the glass of wine from Cui Yunqing, "My mentor drank a lot today, so it's better for students to drink this cup."

Everyone was a little surprised to see Li Jing appear suddenly. Cui Yunqing couldn't help but be confused when she saw Li Jing's actions. Li Jing winked at him and signaled the wine in her hand. Cui Yunqing's face changed. He understood Li Jing's meaning, but couldn't believe it.

The person who was even more surprised by Li Jing's appearance was Feng Liang. When he saw Li Jing, his pupils suddenly shrank. Li Jing had been quietly following Feng Liang, and saw all his subtle changes in his expression.

"Brother Feng, don't you mind that this glass of wine will be drunk on behalf of my mentor? I just heard there that your glass of wine was for you to hurt me. Since that's the case, I think this glass of wine is more suitable for me. What do you think?"

Feng Liang's expression on his face was very wonderful. He was surprised when he saw Li Jing, and then seemed to be suppressed anger. When Li Jing said he wanted to drink this glass of wine, his eyes were filled with ecstasy.

He suppressed the surprise and smiled: "I was indeed wrong yesterday. I shouldn't have hurt people secretly, nor should I have to fight you. What you taught me yesterday was that when I returned, my uncle also taught me a lesson. Last night, I reflected carefully all night. I originally planned to go to the military camp to apologize to Saburo directly. Later, I learned that Saburo was also coming to see him off, so I came here directly. Saburo, please drink this glass of wine and forgive my previous recklessness."

Li Jing's face remained silent, picked up the wine glass and moved it to his lips, pretending to drink, but his eyes carefully observed the subtle expression on Feng Liang's face with his eyes. Sure enough, Li Jing's hand slowly approached his lips, and the corners of Feng Liang's mouth were raised upwards, and the eyes went from surprise to ecstasy, and then to mocking.

These changes made Li Jing more and more sure of his previous judgment. If there is something wrong with this wine, it is very likely that it is poisonous wine.

Thinking of this, Li Jing suddenly moved the wine glass away again, pretending to remember it, and said to Feng Liang: "Oh, I suddenly remembered something. At the time of Mao this morning, Wulang and the second team deputy Zhang Daxin had not arrived, and Feng Wulang had not arrived. Someone from the Feng Mansion had asked for leave before. However, Zhang Daxin had not asked for leave. Wulang and the deputy team deputy had always had a very good relationship. Do you know where Zhang Daxin is?"

As soon as Zhang Daxin's name was mentioned, Feng Liang's mouth twitched and a nervous look appeared on his face.

This Zhang Daxin is his friend. Yesterday, he was humiliated by Li Jing in the competition and shot him with an arrow, Zhang Daxin followed him. Seeing that he was extremely angry, Zhang Daxin offered to kill Li Jing and help him take revenge. Feng Liang was very angry at the time and didn't care about anything else. The two discussed for a long time. After that, Zhang Daxin proposed to assassinate Li Jing in the military camp at night. He also said that he had a few very good brothers in the second capital of the right, and he could use it this time.

After Zhang Daxinyi went there, there was no news. Feng Liang waited at home all night. He sent someone to the military camp early this morning, but he searched all the military camps but couldn't find Zhang Daxin. No one was there. After asking about the second-hand man on the right, he found that two people on the second-hand man on the right were gone.

When the news came back, Feng Liang was both shocked and scared. The first thing he thought of was that Zhang Daxin and the others failed and fell into Li Jing's hands. Maybe they had already reached the hands of governor Cui and others. He just waited until noon and saw no movement, which made him gradually calm down. He also sent someone to inquire about Li Jing's movement. When he heard that Li Jing was as usual and there was no abnormal movement, he was confused and let go of the matter.

Who would have thought that Li Jing suddenly mentioned Zhang Daxin at this time, and Feng Liang almost changed color. Feng Liang looked at Li Jing nervously, but couldn't see anything on his face. He really couldn't understand whether Li Jing mentioned Zhang Daxin just asked casually, or was it interesting?

"Zhang Daxin made a mistake for no reason?" Feng Liang pretended to be surprised, "What happened to this guy? I saw him once yesterday, but I didn't see him later. Could it be that he was sleeping in a brothel again and was drunk and dreaming? Otherwise, I'll send someone to look for it later."

Li Jing said casually: "Forget it, I just mentioned it casually. No matter whether he is life or death, since he has no reason to misunderstand, his head no longer belongs to him. If a dead person is talking about what he is doing!"

"A dead man!" Feng Liang murmured to himself, but his eyes at Li Jing were already a little more shocked and suspicious. "Yes, what's going on with him? Brother Li, please drink my apology wine.'

Li Jing raised his eyes and put the wine glass to his lips again. Feng Liang's eyes stared at Li Jing's wine glass, wishing he could immediately pour the wine into Li Jing's throat.

But at this moment, Li Jing moved away from the wine glass again, stared at Feng Liang, and joked: "Brother Feng hopes that I can drink this glass of wine. Isn't this glass of wine a poisonous wine?"

Feng Liang changed color and his whole body became straight. His face turned pale, his lips trembled but he couldn't speak. Seeing Feng Liang's expression, Li Jing knew it in his heart, but he did not mean to expose him. Now that he exposes this matter, he can only kill Feng Liang, but Feng Yanqing can't do it. Since that's the case, he might as well pretend that nothing is wrong and catch Feng Liang's uncle and nephew as planned.

"Hahaha!" Li Jing laughed loudly, "I'm just kidding Goro, it depends on how anxious you are. But this glass of wine seems to have not been sifted clean, so why not change it? Today I specially brought a jar of good wine, and I heard that it is a grape wine from Persia."
