Chapter 178 Xiang Yu
"Brother Xianyang is looking for someone?" Liu Bang shook his head and said seriously, "I have been drinking here for the past few days, and I have never seen the person you mentioned. Xianyang City is large and there are countless restaurants. I don’t know when to find it, I know some friends in the city, and I can ask them to look for it together.”
The lives of dozens of people were at stake, and Yi Xiaochuan was touched when he heard that Liu Bang was willing to help.
"Don't worry, leave this matter to me." Liu Bang said as he got up and walked out, "It's not too late, I'll go find those friends."
Yi Xiaochuan sent Liu Bang to the door, watched his back in a hurry, and slowly loosened the clenched fist in his sleeve.
Aware of the sight coming from behind, Liu Bang didn't dare to turn his head. While wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, he quickened his pace until he rounded the street corner, then sat down by the wall and glanced quietly in the direction of the wine shop.
‘No way, although Xianyang is prosperous, it is too dangerous. Xiao Chuan was sent to the official slave camp by me, and he already held resentment, but now he is relegated to the palace and becomes a eunuch. Why don’t you hate me to death? Taking advantage of this moment to trap him, I have to pack up my luggage and escape from Xianyang, and I can't stay here anymore! '
It wasn't until Liu Bang's figure disappeared at the corner of the street that Yi Xiaochuan sighed softly and looked away.
Reunited after a long absence, although Yi Xiaochuan intends to vent his anger on the other party, he is still quite moved by Liu Bang's act of helping find someone without saying anything.
"In retrospect, it was Liu Bang's helpless move to be arrested and sent to the official slave camp to fill up the corvee. Even the eldest brother himself was sent to the northern Xinjiang to repair the Great Wall. What can I complain about?" Yi Xiaochuan turned around sadly, and said with a wry smile : "At any rate, it can be regarded as saving more than a dozen lives."
The restaurant can't find Dr. Cui, so where should he be?
Yi Xiaochuan glanced inside again from the gap in the straw curtain, frowned and said, "Brother is right, Xianyang is so big, it's really difficult for me to find it alone, I have to ask Lao Gao to mobilize the power of the restaurant for this matter." OK."
The situation in the palace is critical, every day of delay, Princess Yushu will be more at risk of contracting the plague, so Yi Xiaochuan had no choice but to suppress the resistance in his heart, and ran towards the first floor of the world instead.
at the same time.
In another market in the east of the city, Susu and Xiaoyue were strolling along the street.
"Sister Su, I'm really sorry, I have to trouble you to come out with me." Xiaoyue looked at the quiet woman beside her, with a little apology in her tone.
Susu smiled lightly, patted Xiaoyue's Rouyi lightly, and said softly: "It's okay, I'm quite boring at home by myself, I have Miss Xiaoyue to accompany me out to relax, I should thank you It was me."
Xiaoyue was even more moved when she heard the words.
The two chatted while walking. Since Xiaoyue had been staying in the palace all the time, she had never had the opportunity to see the bustling market, so she was dazzled when she went out. No matter what she saw, it was quite novel.
As for Susu? I am used to living in the deep boudoir on weekdays, and even if I go out, I always go with Lu Zhi or Zhou Ji. The person who has always been taken care of by the two has become a person who takes care of others. Susu introduces various shops and delicious food in the city to Xiaoyue. Snacks, this rather fresh feeling is also quite interesting.
The two talked and laughed, and walked along the market, and their relationship became closer and closer.
Putting down the jade statue in his hand, Susu noticed the distressed look on Xiaoyue's face, and asked curiously: "Miss Xiaoyue, is there something bothering you?"
Xiaoyue smiled wryly and said: "Since she left the palace, Xiaoyue has been taken care of by my elder brother, so I thought of taking this opportunity to choose a gift for him, but only found out on the street that I don't even like him. You know, even if you choose a gift, you can’t know where to start.”
Susu covered her mouth with a smile and said: "Miss Xiaoyue has such a heart, even if she picks up a piece of gravel and takes it home, shopkeeper Gao will hold it in her palm and regard it as a treasure."
"Why is Sister Su also teasing me?" Xiaoyue pouted and said coquettishly.
"Miss Xiaoyue, don't be angry. It's my fault. I'll give you some advice." Susu covered her mouth and chuckled, looking at Bu Xing not far away, her eyes lit up, "I heard that Miss Xiaoyue was born The weaving and embroidery workshop must have good craftsmanship, seeing that the weather is getting colder, how about making some clothes for Boss Gao?"
"That's right! Why didn't I think of it?" Xiaoyue was overjoyed when she heard that, she dragged Susu into the cloth shop, looked up at the various cloths on the wall shelf, her eyes became brighter and brighter.
She has noticed and remembered Gao Yao's doting on her these days.
This kind of sincerity does not seem to be fake, nor can it be fake.
Xiaoyue knew that if Gao Ruo really treated her like a younger sister, she would be quite moved by it.
Gao wants to do too much for her, so she also wants to do something for Gao.
Before going out, Gao Fortress gave her a large bag of silver coins, but after all, Xiaoyue felt something was wrong in her heart when she bought gifts with these money and gave them back to Gao Yao.
Now seeing a dazzling array of cloth of various colors, Xiaoyue finally made a decision in her heart.
The cloth is not cheap, but it is not too expensive either. Xiaoyue did not use the silver taels that Gao Fortress gave her, but took out another purse from her sleeve, turned over various copper plates and broken silver, and used her With all my savings over the past six years, I picked out a moderately priced cloth.
Susu looked at the scene in front of her in surprise, and her gaze towards Xiaoyue became softer and softer.
On the way back, Xiaoyue lightly stroked the fabric in her arms, imagining in her mind the scene when Gao Yao put on this dress. A carriage galloped from behind her, but suddenly lost control halfway through the run. Although the driver tried his best to stop it, The carriage ran faster and faster.
Xiaoyue's face turned pale, and she fell to the ground on the spot, momentarily at a loss.
Seeing this scene, Su Su's face was also a little pale, but she knew that Zhou Ji had left thunder-weave body shields on her and her sister, so she turned around and hugged Xiaoyue, protecting her in her arms, trying to block the carriage with her back.
Xiaoyue huddled in Susu's arms, and only saw the approaching carriage from the gap in her arms. She wanted to push Susu away, but her hands and feet felt numb and trembling, but she couldn't even exert any strength.
Pedestrians in the past couldn't help dodging around seeing this scene. Even if someone showed a look of resentment, there was nothing they could do.
When he was about to bump into Xiaoyue and Susu, there was a loud shout from passers-by.
"careful!"
Qi Qi looked around, and saw a man with a resolute appearance and a burly figure suddenly stepped out, before the carriage hit the two of them, blocking between the carriage and the two of them.
The horse came in a blink of an eye, and when it saw the man blocking it, it raised its hooves in fright.
Only heard a loud bang.
Xiaoyue's body trembled, and she turned her head and closed her eyes subconsciously. She didn't hear the painful cry of the man being trampled by the horse's hoof for a long time, but instead heard the cheers and exclamation of the audience.
Opening her eyes quietly, Susu, who was hugging her originally, seemed to let go of her arms.
"Two girls, are you all right?"
"It's okay." Xiaoyue subconsciously reached out her hand to take the cloth, but her hands and feet were weak in shock, and she couldn't hold it firmly as soon as the other party let go, causing the cloth to fall to the ground again.
Xiaoyue blushed, and hurriedly bent down to pick it up. It happened that the other party also bent down at the same time. The two of them grabbed one side of the cloth, raised their eyes, and looked at each other inadvertently.
Xiaoyue withdrew her hand quickly as if she had been electrocuted, but she thought that this was the material she bought for her brother to make clothes, and hurriedly wanted to take the cloth back from the strong man.
"Thank you for your help, the strong man." Su Su bowed to the other party, smiled and said, "May I ask the strong man Gao's name?"
"You don't need to thank me for the effort." Xiang Yu patted his chest and said with a smile, "My name is Xiang Yu. Have you asked the two girls yet?"
Susu and Xiaoyue saluted again and exchanged names with Xiang Yu.
Although she is quite confident in her husband Lei Wen, after all, this man named Xiang Yu rescued her. Knowing that the other party has just entered Xianyang and has not found a place to stay, Su Su invites him to live in the first floor of the world. It can also be regarded as a reward for the other party's life-saving grace.
In these years, no heroic person can refuse the attraction of this name.
Hearing the name of 'No. 1 Building in the World', Xiang Yu immediately agreed without saying a word.
Even the uncle Xiang Liang who came with him couldn't persuade him, so he had to follow them to the restaurant.
Before entering the door, Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu saw a tall archway standing beside the road, decorated with carved orchid jade pillars and resplendent in gold and jade.
The door opening of the archway is as high as three feet, with three rooms and four pillars of yellow tiles and glazed tiles. Looking from the front, it has a sense of grandeur and impact.
"The No. 1 Building in the World! I've heard about the reputation of this restaurant long before Xiang came to Xianyang. Not to mention anything else, the name alone is quite in my heart."
While Xiang Yu was deeply moved, Xiang Liang was full of doubts in his heart.
A restaurant of this size is clearly in violation of the regulations, but why is it still open? Is it possible that the DPRK and China acquiesced?
Susu didn't care about the messy thoughts of the two of them, her body had almost fully recovered along the way, and when she saw the gate of the restaurant, her footsteps became much lighter, and she stepped over the stone steps in twos and ran towards the shop.
"Brother~Brother~~"
"I'm coming."
Actually, after Xiaoyue went out, Gao Yao started to lose his mind, what should he do if he was worried about getting lost? For a while, I worry about meeting bad guys.
Even though she knew that Susu was by her side, even if she was in danger, she would be protected by Thunder Rune, but she still couldn't help but feel frightened.
Between the brows, the word 'Sister Control' was almost engraved on the forehead.
Hearing Xiaoyue's voice, Gao Yao put down the ledger in his hand, trotted all the way to meet the door, his face wrinkled even more with a smile.
"I'm sorry Miss Susu, please accompany my Xiaoyue out to make a fool of yourself. She didn't cause you any trouble, did she?" Gao Yao looked at Susu who was standing at the door, thanking her, but her eyes kept moving. Glancing to the side, he was relieved when he saw her running down the stairs.
"Brother, you don't know, we were almost hit by a carriage just now?" Xiaoyue grabbed Gao Yao's sleeve, still in shock.
"Then are you okay? Are you injured anywhere?" Gao Yao pulled Xiaoyue aside, with a concerned expression on his face.
"Don't worry, bro, we're all fine." Xiaoyue looked back at Susu, then turned around and said, "Sister Su protected me just now, and the carriage was about to hit me. Fortunately, Brother Xiang arrived in time and took the initiative to open the door." Overturn the carriage and save us."
Xiaoyue said, and introduced the other two people at the door to Gao Yao.
Grateful Gao Yao thanked Xiang Susu and Xiang Yu one by one, and immediately asked the staff to prepare two guest rooms with the highest number for them.
Xiang Yu frowned after hearing this. With his heroic temperament, he was just about to say no, but he heard a rush of footsteps behind him. Turning his head to look, he saw a rather familiar figure running into the restaurant, and said anxiously: " Lao Gao, have you seen Dr. Cui these days? Has he ever been to the restaurant?"
"No? I haven't seen him since I finished leaving the letter last time, and I can't find him even if I want to thank him." Gao Yao shook his head in disappointment, and asked instead: "What Didn't I tell you to go to the wine shop to find him?"
"He's not there I just came from the liquor store."
"Xiaochuan? Hahaha, are you Xiaochuan?"
Before Yi Xiaochuan finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xiang Yu, "Good brother! I finally see you!"
"Hey~ hey~~" Yi Xiaochuan was hugged by Xiang Yu's bear, staggered a few steps, and then noticed the figure standing beside him, and couldn't help being surprised: "Brother Yu? Master? Why are you here?"
Xiang Yu laughed loudly when he heard the words, "We heard that Mr. Fusu opened a Juxian Hall in Xianyang, regardless of his origin or country, so he came all the way from Kuaiji, wanting to join the eldest son." Xiang Yu said, puzzled: "What about you? Didn't you say you were going to Yandi? Why did you come to Xianyang?"
Yi Xiaochuan smiled wryly and said: "It's a long story, let me tell you slowly in the future."
Now Gao Yao was dumbfounded, pointing to Xiang Yu and then to Yi Xiaochuan, wondering: "Do you know each other?"
Yi Xiaochuan was already in a state of desperation due to the plague in the palace, and now that he couldn't find Dr. Cui, he was filled with impatience. When he heard Gao Yao's question, he couldn't help but scratched his head, and spread his hands and said, "Stop, stop, old man Gao, this matter is also very long, I will tell you later."
Xiang Yu looked at the two people who were talking, and opened his mouth, "______?"
"We also know each other."
As if he had read Xiang Yu's question in advance, Yi Xiaochuan smiled wryly: "Old Gao, that is, Boss Gao is my fellow countryman, and this restaurant is jointly run by him and another fellow townsman of mine."
After all, Gao Yao has opened the restaurant for two years, and immediately said with a smile: "Xiao Chuan's brother is my brother, since everyone knows each other, why not sit down and talk about the past slowly." He did not forget to tease, "'Yu ~Brother~', now you can live here with peace of mind, right?"
"It's natural."
Knowing that Gao Yao is Yi Xiaochuan's fellow countryman, Xiang Yu no longer resisted in his heart, and immediately agreed to Gao Yao's invitation just now.
"Little eunuch, you are in such a hurry to find Dr. Cui, is something wrong?" Taking advantage of the conversation between the two, Xiaoyue quietly pulled Yi Xiaochuan aside, and asked in a low voice.
