The preparations for sending troops to the Southern Tang Dynasty have been in full swing. Among them, the task of allocating grain, grass, and baggage by the Logistics Department is particularly arduous.

Ye Tongming, who knew the logistics department, was even more busy, and his whole person was tanned a lot.

It was already dark, and Ye Tongming was still in the logistics department, fighting at night. There are so many things that he needs to deal with that he can't get out of it at all.

"Xiang Chang, I'm busy eating something."

"Oh, you can leave it there, and I'll eat when I'm done." Ye Tongming replied like this, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, he looked up, aha, Li Zhongyi was standing in front of the bookcase with a smile.

"Your Majesty, why are you here?" Ye Tongming hurriedly tidied up his clothes and saluted respectfully.

Li Zhongyi waved his hand and said, "Between you and me, there is no need for these red tapes. ”

Ye Tongming said respectfully: "Etiquette cannot be abolished, you are the monarch's father, and your subordinates must be respectful." ”

"Let's eat first, wait until it's cold and then hot, it won't taste good." Li Zhongyi pointed to the food box and stopped Ye Tongming, who wanted to continue working.

Ye Tongming took a closer look, and then noticed that the food box was obviously the shape of the palace, and he couldn't help but froze.

Li Zhongyi said with a smile: "I've heard a long time ago, you haven't had a good meal these days, so I specially ordered the imperial kitchen to fry a few appetizers for you alone. ”

Gao Qiang and Zhang Sanzheng spread out the wine and food on the small round table, Li Zhongyi sat down casually with a golden knife, Ye Tongming saw Li Zhongyi beckoning to him, so he had to bite the bullet and sit opposite Li Zhongyi.

"As the old saying goes, people are iron, rice is steel, and if you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry! Xiang Chang, you have worked hard, I will do this first! Li Zhongyi raised his wine glass, raised his neck and drank it all.

Ye Tongming looked at Li Zhongyi, his mind was a little foggy, he just raised the wine glass, but forgot to drink it.

"Tsk, what are you doing? I don't have any engraving on my face? it! Li Zhongyi pretended to be angry and complained about Ye Tongming.

Ye Tongming quickly wiped his eyes, and then drank the wine in the cup without hesitation.

"Wait, rush a ball? Let's eat a few bites of food first, this wine has a lot of stamina! ”

After Ye Tongming poured himself full of wine, he wanted to toast three glasses in a row to show his respect, but was stopped by Li Zhongyi in time.

After Ye Tongming ate a few bites of food, Li Zhongyi smiled and said, "Eat slowly, don't worry." ”

Ye Tongming was originally a little nervous, but after a few glasses of wine, his mood gradually relaxed.

"Here, do one!" Li Zhongyi knew that Ye Tongming's alcohol consumption was very good, and he didn't need to worry about him getting drunk.

After Ye Tongming raised his glass, he suddenly said: "Your Majesty, the minister remembered the last time I drank with you, alas, time flies so fast, three years have passed in a flash." ”

Li Zhongyi smiled slightly, the last time we drank together, it was better to choose a day than to hit a day, and I happened to meet it.

"Yes, at that time, as long as you want to drink, you can pull a brother at random, and you can drink until the middle of the night." Li Zhongyi also sighed a lot, with the change of identity and the change of living place, there are not many opportunities to pull people to drink casually like before.

Among Li Zhongyi's old subordinates, Ye Tongming belongs to Neixiu's personality, he doesn't talk much, but he is like a blind man eating rice balls, and he knows it very well.

Li Zhongyi came to the logistics department because he was worried that he would make wrong decisions if he had been out of touch with reality for too long.

This is actually the same reason as being a leader, who needs to go to the enterprise from time to time to investigate. Even if it's a quick look, at least you can get closer to the reality of the truth than sitting in an office.

Li Zhongyi's six major military departments, he will always find time to come out, walk around at will, take a look, and talk to someone casually.

In the process of chatting, you can always find some overlooked problems, and you can make improvements anytime and anywhere.

Today, Li Zhongyi heard Li Haodong, who also knows the military justice department, say that Ye Tongming has been so busy living in the yamen that he has been busy recently, so he has the intention of pulling him to drink.

Li Zhongyi instructed the imperial kitchen to fry a few good dishes with wine, and asked Gao Qiang and Zhang Sanzheng to carry them, and came directly to the yamen of the logistics department.

"I heard that your lady is pregnant again?" Li Zhongyi took a sip of wine and asked Ye Tongming with a smile.

Ye Tongming said a little proudly: "According to common sense, with my age, I am already a little older, who would have thought that she actually had a body again, hehe!" ”

Li Zhongyi liked Ye Tongming's free talk, so he smiled and said, "You are not old, you should only be thirty-seven years old this year?" If I'm not mistaken, you're supposed to be a tiger, right? ”

"Your Majesty, you really have a good memory, and the minister is indeed a tiger." Ye Tongming was grateful, and as soon as he was emotionally excited, he drank three cups in a row.

Li Zhongyi hurriedly stopped him and complained: "You've been too tired lately, don't be too greedy, let's eat a few more bites." ”

"Oh, by the way, Your Majesty, my kid has fallen in love with someone else's little lady, but the little lady's parents don't look down on the dog, it's really disturbing." After Ye Tongming drank a few more glasses, he opened the conversation box and began to talk about homely things.

Li Zhongyi likes to listen to the old subordinates, gossip about Zhang's parents, and Li Jia's short homely words. Those who talk about common things are given to relatives and friends, and only their own people will say some private things that lose face.

"It's impossible, you're a dignified fourth-grade minister of the imperial court." Li Zhongyi felt a little surprised, Ye Tongming was not an ordinary person, but a well-known logistics secretary on the fourth grade, one of the proper military bosses.

"Alas, I'm a rough old man, and I learned a little bit of culture from you. The father of the little lady, that is a famous Confucian in the dynasty, we look down on others, but people don't look down on us! As soon as Ye Tongming thought of this, he felt that he was angry, and he couldn't understand it.

Li Zhongyi can understand this. No matter how high Ye Tongming's status is, after all, he is a military general, Wenchen has always looked down on martial artists who dance knives and play guns, and it is understandable that he does not want to marry the Ye family.

"Which lady is the other party?" Li Zhongyi had the intention of asking, so he asked Ye Tongming in detail.

Ye Tongming sighed and explained: "The little lady's father is Sun Dongliang, a doctor of Taixue. ”

Li Zhongyi understood as soon as he heard it, one side was a well-educated Confucian, and the other side was a newly rising military noble, so it was normal to look at it wrong.

Doctor Taixue is a subordinate official in the Guozi Prison, and his grade is on the sixth grade. Although there is a big gap between this grade and Ye Tongming, let alone the family of the sixth-grade Wenchen, even if it is a family of scholars without official positions and no position, it is difficult to agree to marry their daughter into the martial arts gate.

"Don't worry, the so-called slow things will be round, wait and see." Li Zhongyi didn't make any promises, but Ye Tongming knew in his heart that as long as Li Zhongyi spoke, it would definitely be managed.

"If you can do this, the minister will accompany you to get drunk and rest!" Ye Tongming knew that Li Zhongyi lacked nothing, but he lacked the love of the robe that was better than siblings in the past.

PS: I added it in advance, and I asked for a monthly pass!
