Chapter Thirty-Four: Human Nature as an Immortal
At the end of August 184 A.D
Under the personal greeting of Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty, Lin Xu, who basically pacified the Yellow Turban Rebellion, led the generals and a small number of elite soldiers to enter Luoyang City.
When all the soldiers knelt down and saluted Liu Hong, Lin Xu only bent down ninety degrees and bowed. Liu Hong didn't say anything except that he was a little unhappy, but the other generals and officials were stunned, but fortunately, no one dared to run out and die at such a time.
At the beginning of the return journey, some of the soldiers had already begun to declare and register one after another, and left the team and began to return to their hometowns.
The rest of the homeless, or those who did not want to return to their hometowns, were arranged in the stations of Beidaying and Yulin.
As for the rewards, except for the remaining soldiers, who will receive some additional rewards of wine and meat in a relatively short period of time, the rest need to be carefully checked after the announcement and sacrifice, and the rewards for meritorious deeds will be discussed.
The military merit system of the Han Dynasty is still very strict, after all, it is not the era of the Three Kingdoms melee, under the pressure of Liu Hong, the emperor with real power, no one dares to be greedy for such a thing as military merit.
(Sure enough, domineering and mighty men are the most favored by women)
Lin Xu, who rode a tall horse to lead the city, enjoyed his face, and the cheering crowd stood on both sides of the brightly lit streets, and a large number of little ladies dressed up kept flattering at the leading young generals.
Women in the Han Dynasty were still relatively open, and there were not many things like widows remarrying and lovers eloping, and you didn't see them: when Princess Pingyang first married Cao, she remarried Wei Qing, Princess Jingwu married Zhang Lin for the first time, remarried Zhao Qin, and then married Xue Xuan, and even the princess of the Han Dynasty will not be condemned for her upright cultivation.
So if these victorious generals were to nod at the little ladies now, the odds of appearing in their beds tonight were enormous.
"Mengde, what's the matter? Is there anything you can see? ”
Lin Xu, who suddenly remembered his wife Cao, turned his head and said with a smile on his face
"The general said that he laughed, Humble Jing is still at home to me, how can I bear her"
Cao Cao talked nonsense with a serious face.
"Hey, hey, huh~?"
Lin Xu had a strange expression, and just now he saw Cao Cao looking at those plump women.
"Haha, it's normal for people to have sex and lust, and the husband has desires."
Zhu Jun looked at Cao Cao's unnatural face, and immediately stroked his beard and laughed.
"Yo, General Zhu should be strong and strong"
"That's natural, after the dinner, the old man will fight three hundred rounds!"
In the face of Lin Xu's ridicule, Zhu Jun didn't care, but was proud.
"I heard that the general is not married, I am afraid that I will not be able to sleep tonight, why don't my subordinates arrange one or two?"
Cao Cao, who couldn't hold back his face, thought about Lin Xu's temperament and immediately started to fight back.
"Wow, Meng De, that's what you said! Damn, those palace maids given by His Majesty, do you dare to see or eat them?"
Lin Xu said with a look of surprise when he heard this.
Cao Cao's cheeks twitched twice after hearing this, I~~, do you dare to say this? Are you deaf to your majesty?
Once it comes to His Majesty, even if it is a palace maid, this is a taboo topic, after all, Emperor Han Ling has done such a ridiculous thing as "letting the dog and the palace maid", so no one dares to take Lin Xu's words.
In the evening, Weiyang Palace dinner
Liu Hong sat in the first place, Huangfu Chong, Zhu Jun, and Lu Zhi followed in order, and Lin Xu's position was different, level with Liu Hong, but the table was smaller, and the type of food on the table was the same as Liu Hong's, but the number was slightly less.
This is very intriguing, and even Cao Cao began to wonder if Lin Xu was the illegitimate son of the first emperor or something.
When the generals in the audience exchanged their heads and asked around for information, Lin Xu didn't care so much, feasting, drinking in a big bowl, although the taste of these barbecues was still so unsatisfactory, it was much better than the craftsmanship of those butchers in the army, and even felt that it was troublesome to cut meat with a halberd, and directly reached out to summon two palace maids to accompany him.
"Are you satisfied with this meal?"
Looking at Lin Xu, who was eating happily on the side, Liu Hong was inexplicably happy, perhaps because he thought that his country was stable again.
"Hmm~, the taste is average, and it's barely edible."
Lin Xu swallowed a large piece of meat chewed in his mouth and spread his hands, looking very reluctant. It is not easy to eat meat when he is out on the expedition, this Bo Lin Xu plans to gnaw meat for three days first, and then he feels that he has lost weight.
"Is it~"
Liu Hong, who had a slightly gloomy face, replied lightly, slowly picked up the wine bottle and drank it all, and the wide cuffs covered his face. Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong on the back had a cold face, and turned their heads slightly to look at Lin Xu, but they didn't dare to speak.
And the expressions of the generals in the audience were very exciting, frightened, confused, stunned, annoyed, and unbelievable!
"Hiccup~"
Lin Xu, who ate too fast and drank a lot of inferior rice wine from the Han Dynasty, couldn't control his burps for a while, raised his head, and suddenly found that the atmosphere seemed to be a little dignified, and suddenly remembered that he seemed to dislike the master's meal just now.
"Ahem~, Your Majesty is waiting, when I settle down, I will personally make a pot for you to taste."
"Oh~, do you know how to do the trick of Ding Ding?"
Hearing Lin Xu say that he would cook for himself in person, Liu Hong's face eased, in his understanding, this was Lin Xu expressing his apologies and making up for his gaffes.
"That's natural, it's hard to eat takeout every day."
Lin Xu said with a smile
"Your Majesty, rest assured, although my cooking skills are not very exquisite, I will never disappoint Your Majesty."
"Then I'm really going to look forward to it."
Liu Hong smiled
(Immortal meals?) I'd love to see the difference. )
Seeing that his emperor was in a better mood, the generals in the audience also slowly let go of their restraints, and the atmosphere became happy again.
And Lin Xu, who was full of wine and food, began to feel a little uncomfortable, and after taking his attention away from the food, he naturally had to put it in other places, and the dancing girl in the center of the hall was a good choice.
As a twenty-four-year-old virgin, he has been out for more than half a year without the slightest vent, and suddenly a group of little beauties are dancing in front of him, which is really a bit difficult to control.
The red sleeves are fluttering, the clothes are rippling, the fans are like xiaxia, and the slender posture is swaying gently.
The dance of the Han Dynasty generally has two major characteristics: one is the "dancing sleeve", which is the legendary "long-sleeved good dance", which is danced by using slender and fat cuffs.
Another feature is the "dancing waist". Yingying's willow waist is soft and boneless, and the gentle twisting involves the hub part of the whole body, making the movements lean forward and backward, swaying left and right, rich and changeable, and full of grace.
When Lin Xu seriously appreciated the grace of the dancers, Liu Hong was appreciating Lin Xu's humanity: greedy for food and money! Lascivious!
