"Cen Yongchang, the prefect of Yu'an Prefecture, met with Guo Yushi."
Seeing Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, coming out, the prefect Cen Yongchang quickly stepped forward and bowed.
The other officials also closely followed the actions of the prefect Cen Yongchang and came together to salute.
Seeing this, Guo Kang, the imperial censor of Zuodu, smiled slightly and said, "Please excuse me."
"Thank you, Censor Guo." After saying this, thinking about what happened, the prefect Cen Yongchang apologized: "Censor Guo, I'm really sorry, I'm sorry. Look... I'm... It's all their fault, it almost led to a big mistake. I'm sorry, I'm really sorry."
Hearing what Magistrate Cen said, looking at the sincerely apologetic face, and thinking that he had not suffered much injustice in prison, Zuodu Yushi Guo Kang said: "No problem, no problem."
"Well, it's already getting late. Let me take you to the best restaurant in Yuanfu City for a meal. I'll treat it as my apology to you." Cen Yongchang said.
Listening to this, I thought that I and the housekeeper Yin Xing had been hungry all day, so they could just get a free meal.
In this way, Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, and Yin Xing, the steward, followed the prefect Cen Yongchang to the best restaurant in Anfu City.
On the way, the prefect Cen Yongchang and several officials accompanying him were too nervous to say a word, while Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, and Yin Xing, the steward, were too hungry to speak.
As I walked, I arrived. When I looked up, I saw the four characters "Ziu Weng Restaurant" written on the plaque of this restaurant.
From these four characters, even if there is no word "drunkard", as long as there are two words "restaurant", any literate person can know that this is a restaurant.
When I first arrived at this restaurant, I could already smell the fragrant and mellow smell of wine before I even stepped into the restaurant.
The smell of wine really made Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, and Yin Xing, the steward, eager to taste the aroma of this wine and the delicious food.
"Guo Yushi, please." Magistrate Cen welcomed with a fake smile.
At this time, Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, no longer wanted to say a word. He was really hungry.
Seeing this, Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, nodded and walked towards the restaurant.
Several officials followed.
As soon as you enter this restaurant, a beautiful view emerges.
As you can see, this restaurant is very unique. As soon as you enter, you will see rows of tools for making wine. You can also see women and men busy, and some interested men are standing here and watching. .
Who knows what they are looking at, the craftsmanship of making wine, or the beauty who makes wine?
The walls on the first floor of the restaurant are also made of wood. These wood are not ordinary wood.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
, it looks like old wood, and when you put your nose against the wood, you can smell the faint fragrance of wood.
There are also paintings outlined on the walls. These paintings are not colored paintings. How can I say this?
Just use a knife to carve on the wall on this precious wood to imitate a colored painting. Doing this tests the skill of the carpenter.
But these paintings are not random scribblings. Some of them are imitated, such as Yan Liben's "Stepping Chariot Picture", Li Sixun's "Jiang Fan Pavilion Picture", Li Zhaodao's "Ming Emperor's Visit to Shu Picture" and so on.
It was already remarkable that people from the previous dynasties could present this beautiful scenery on this scroll. Now, when Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, saw these paintings engraved on the walls, he felt even more amazing, and the engravings were so good. They are exactly the same and can't find any faults.
Seeing Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, looking at the painting on the wall, the prefect Cen Yongchang on the side said with a smile on his face: "Guo censor, look, how good this painting is."
After listening to what Magistrate Cen said, Guo Kang nodded. Seeing these paintings, he suddenly felt less hungry.
"I didn't expect that there is such a restaurant here. When I was in the capital, I saw so many restaurants, but I never saw a restaurant like this. Now, it is really an eye-opener for me." Guo Kang praised. .
Hearing what Guo Yushi said, the prefect Cen Yongchang smiled all over his face. Of course, this was just a smile on the outside. The tension in his heart had not dropped a bit.
"Guo Yushi, this is on the second floor, shall we go up?" Magistrate Cen asked.
"Okay." Guo Yushi responded.
No matter how beautiful these paintings are, they still fail to satisfy my hunger.
In this Zuiweng Restaurant, the cashier and the drinking area are on the second and third floors.
In this city, the buildings for businesses like this are only two or three floors at most, and cannot be any higher.
I walked up the stairs to the second floor, which seemed even more spectacular than the first floor.
The cashier is in a corner of the second floor, and the rest of the spacious area is filled with tables and chairs. Looking at it like this, it seems like every chair is filled with customers.
The walls are almost the same as those on the first floor, but different. It can be said that there is no duplication of these paintings. They are all famous paintings from previous dynasties.
Half of the wall is decorated with a long bamboo leaf pattern. Although no real bamboo can be seen, these pictures give people the feeling of drinking wine together in a bamboo forest.
Seeing that Censor Guo was also attracted by the scene in front of him, Magistrate Cen felt a little happy.
"Guo Yushi, shall we go to the third floor? This third floor is much better than here. It is the best place in this restaurant." Magistrate Cen asked.
Guo Yushi didn't even think about it
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
After thinking about it for a while, he agreed: "Okay."
Yin Xing, the steward who followed Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, also saw such a scene for the first time. He really wanted to stay here for a while, but it was a pity that he came with the master not for vacation but to investigate the case. of.
Going up to the third floor is indeed the best place as the prefect Cen Yongchang said.
This place is the same as the first and second floors, but different.
The difference is: the third floor is not as lively as the second floor, and looks very quiet; and the paintings on the walls are the best of the best. If a few people who know how to appreciate paintings come, they will see it. In this way, you can't even think of spending a lot of money to buy these walls; also, this place is also engraved with calligraphy and paintings, and the surrounding ground is filled with various kinds of objects that are loved by literati and refined scholars. flower.
It doesn't seem too lively here, but in the long run, it is still lively, but the liveliness is covered by the walls. For people who don't like liveliness, this place is perfect.
"Shopkeeper, bring over all the good wine and dishes from your restaurant." Magistrate Cen Yongchang said enthusiastically.
Hearing this passionate tone, I raised my head and saw that it was the prefect here, Cen Yongchang.
"Prefect Cen, why are you here at the restaurant today?" the shopkeeper asked with a smile on his face.
Magistrate Cen smiled, looked at Guo Yushi on the side, and introduced him: "This is Guo Yushi, a high-ranking official from the capital. All the good wine and food are available."
"Okay. Please come over to the officials. There is a seat over there. The younger one will hurry up first and hurry up for the officials." The shopkeeper said with a smile.
Looking at the direction pointed, the prefect Cen Yongchang said: "Guo Yushi, please come this way." After saying that, he led Guo Yushi towards that direction.
Looking at the series of actions of the prefect Cen Yongchang, he thought he had come to this restaurant often, and he was very familiar with this restaurant.
Thinking about the behavior of the shopkeeper just now, Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, didn't notice anything.
After waiting for a while, the food and wine were finally served.
Seeing so many delicious wines and dishes, Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, felt that he had come to the right place to handle the case this time.
The aroma of various wines and dishes came to my nose, making me almost drop my mouth water.
The prefect Cen Yongchang poured wine into the wine glass.
"Guo Yushi, I'm really sorry for you today. It's all the fault of those government officials who were not smart enough to arrest you by mistake. With this glass of wine, I will make amends to you as an official." After saying this, the prefect Cen Yongchang He raised his glass of wine and took a swig.
Seeing Magistrate Cen acting like this, Zuodu Yushi Guo Kang, who was already hungry and thirsty for a long time, raised his wine glass and took a sip before saying: "Governor Cen, if we don't mention business tonight, just treat it as acquaintance. One game, it doesn’t have to be like this.”
Although he said that, this was not what Guo Yushi really thought.
