In the spring of the following year, the crown prince Sima Shu got married and married Huifeng, the queen of Shangshu Ling Wang Yanci, and the whole world celebrated. When the news reached the army, Liu Yao and Yang Ting were overjoyed. At night, while everyone was asleep, the two went to Liu Yuan's wine cellar to steal two pots of wine, and hid in the room to drink them.

Yang Ting poured two glasses of wine and handed Liu Yao a glass, and the two touched it lightly, and both drank the contents of the cups. Yang Ting is older in the end, and fortunately he is a diplomatic friend, although he doesn't drink wine often, he is also used to this taste. But Liu Yao is still a child, and he has never officially drunk alcohol, at most he secretly tries a little when his father and brother are drinking, so this cup of stomach choked him and coughed again and again, and it took him a long time to ease up.

"Can you do it?" Yang Ting looked at Liu Yao with a smile: "If not, these two pots of wine will be mine." ”

When Liu Yao heard this, he stiffened his neck and argued unconvinced: "Why not? With that, he poured himself another glass, and then drank it down, also choking on his teeth, and the red quickly crept up to his face, and then to his neck.

Yang Ting took Liu Yao's cup: "Slow down, let's celebrate a friend's wedding today." After that, he poured two more glasses of wine, picked up one with Liu Yao, and raised his glass to the west: "Brother Yao wishes His Royal Highness the Crown Prince great joy." ”

After three glasses of wine, Liu Yao couldn't support it, he was half-lying on the table, barely supporting his head with his elbows, and vigorously punched a long hiccup. Yang Ting shook his head, drank two more cups by himself, and suddenly felt a feeling: "This person, life is different, I am two years older than the prince, when will I be able to hold a beauty?" ”

"Brother Yangting, you are a heroic boy, if you want to marry a wife, the girls in Luoyang City have to go around Yangfu three times." Liu Yao said with a grin.

"Heh," Yang quite smiled self-deprecatingly, "Yang Fu? Yangfu is an empty shell. Saying that, he sighed: "I can't compare to the prince, I was born with great gold, what do you want from the wind and rain, the supreme position is waiting for him, and the women in the world are chosen by him, just like that, he still sighs and pretends to be deep, I can't envy it." He said and looked at Liu Yao again: "I can't compare to you, what about the adopted son?" Your adoptive father is a hero, you have his favor, you don't have to think about the future, and when you get married in the future, the wife you choose will not be bad. I'm different, those people with heads and faces in Luoyang City don't look down on me, and those small jasper can't enter my house, even if it's similar to my father's official position, my father still has to take control of the family's shelf, and in the end, the high is not low, the wife is like this, and the future is the same. ”

"How can my brother despise himself so much?" Liu Yao sat up straight and said, "My brother saved my life, in my eyes, my brother is definitely not a thing in the pool." You and I have been in the army for nearly a year, and your hard work is also praised by my father. ”

People always like to listen to good words, Yang Ting was comforted by these two sentences, he raised his glass and touched Liu Yao: "Brother Yao Jiyan." ”

"No, no, no," Liu Yao waved his hand again and again: "If you don't wake up tomorrow and be discovered by your father, it's a big deal." ”

Yang Ting didn't force Liu Yao, poured two glasses of wine into his stomach, and then asked Liu Yao with a big tongue, "I don't know what Brother Yao's plans are in the future?" What kind of girl do you like? ”

Liu Yao laughed twice when he heard this: "I'm still young." ”

"I can drink all the wine, what is it small?" Yang Ting looked at Liu Yao's increasingly red face, and he didn't know if this color was due to drinking too much wine, or if this kid was shy. He deliberately teased, "Is there anything you can't tell me?" Hurry up, my brother will help you analyze and analyze. ”

Liu Yao scratched his head, scratched his nose again, and twisted it three times on the seat, before he said in Yang Ting's expectant eyes: "I, I like it, I offer my sister like that." ”

"Rong'er?" Yang Ting was stunned and laughed.

This laugh made Liu Yao at a loss, thinking that he had said the wrong thing, and suddenly became at a loss, so he simply poured himself half a glass of wine and drank it.

"Rong'er is still a child, don't tease." Yang Ting still didn't stop laughing.

"How cute she is," Liu Yao was anxious, and immediately argued: "She is good-looking and smart, my father said that this female doll is amazing." ”

Yang Ting looked at Liu Yao's serious appearance, and sighed in his heart, this kid looks extremely serious, can it be that children can really have feelings between men and women? He looked at Liu Yao and shook his head again, this Liu Yao had just turned eleven years old, his face was full of childishness, and he was even the object of his brothers' teasing when he was full of joy in the army, and his father did not regard him as a formal member, but just brought him to hone it.

"When I grow up, I will marry her." Liu Yao suddenly shouted, and then fell on the table without a sound.

"Fool, how can you marry Rong'er?" Yang Ting simply raised the wine jug and drank all the wine inside.

It was dawn, the sound of the sergeant's drill outside came and went, and when it was almost noon, everyone found that Liu Yao and Yang Ting, who were still drunk and not awake, were in a remote room, one fell on the bunk, the other was lying on the table, sleeping soundly, and even Liu Yuan personally called the two three times, they didn't know. In desperation, Liu Yuan had to order someone to take care of the two, and asked the military doctor to check Liu Yao's pulse, and left with peace of mind when he learned that there was no major problem.

When the two of them woke up, it was already ten in the evening, and the two of them were in a daze and thought about what had happened, but they could not think of anything other than drinking. Hungry, they walked out of the door, and the sergeant who was guarding the door immediately held the sheep up.

"What are you doing?" Yang Ting struggled to ask.

"Why are you asking us why you violated the rules of drinking?" The sergeant who was holding him couldn't control the infinitely powerful Yang Ting, and beckoned a few more people to come over and crush him under him.

"Brother, wait, I'll go find my father." Liu Yao turned around and ran towards Liu Yuan's room, and before he had run two steps, he saw Liu Yuan coming from the front, thinking that someone had gone to inform him that the two of them had woken up, so he came to check. "Father," Liu Yao hurriedly took a few steps forward, knelt on the ground, clasped his hands into fists, and said: "It was my son's idea to drink last night, even if he wants to be punished, he should also punish his son, it really has nothing to do with Brother Ting." ”

Liu Yuan glanced at Liu Yao: "Is your body still comfortable?" ”

Liu Yao lowered his head, the taste of this hangover was indeed uncomfortable, except for the headache and nausea, not drinking and eating all day made him hungry and thirsty, which was really uncomfortable.

"It's reckless to be young and do things you can't afford at your age." Liu Yuan's voice was full of anger, and he had almost never spoken to Liu Yao so harshly: "You are still young, how can you withstand this kind of strong wine?" If you drink a good drink, will the sheep be able to pay you for your life? You follow him, but the others don't learn, but they learn to be reckless and irresponsible. Not to mention, alcohol is forbidden in the army, you are violating military regulations. You are not a lieutenant general in our army, and I can still deal with you according to family law, but that Yang Ting knowingly violated military regulations, if I spare him, how can I be fair with other soldiers? ”

"The son knows his mistake," Liu Yao kowtowed three times in a row: "It's just that I also ask my father to investigate, yesterday I learned that the prince and I were married, and the prince and I had some friendship, so we were happy for him, so I did something foolish, and asked my father to forgive me." ”

Liu Yuan glared at Liu Yao, and walked straight to Yang Ting's side, he first asked the people who were pressing him to get up, and then waited for Yang Ting to kneel straight before asking, "Where did yesterday's wine come from?" ”

Yang Ting didn't dare to hide it, and honestly confessed: "I took it from the general's wine cellar." ”

"Take?" Liu Yuan sneered: "That's called stealing." ”

Yang Ting didn't dare to speak, his heart beat a drum, Liu Yuan's expression was stern, it didn't look like he would let him go, if he really thought about it, he was afraid that he would be kicked out of the army again, then this year, all his efforts would be in vain.

"I'll ask you again," Liu Yuan said again, "Who came up with the idea of stealing wine?" And who acted? ”

Of course, it was Liu Yao who acted, his identity was convenient, and others would not stop him, as for this idea, it was just that when the two of them talked about the prince's wedding, they mentioned it in a hurry, and it was the common idea of the two.

Yang Ting glanced at Liu Yao, his identity was there, even if he took all the charges, he would be scolded for a few days at most, and he would be his little master when he came out, but he was different, he really couldn't be expelled anymore.

"Father, it's really the son's idea, and the wine is also stolen by the son." Liu Yao walked to Liu Yuan on his knees and said word by word: "Please punish my father." ”

"I'm asking you," Liu Yuan didn't listen to Liu Yao's words, and stared at Yang Ting vigorously: "Who did it?" ”

"It was my idea." Yang Ting's heart was upset and said: "Yao'er is young, how can you understand this?" I was really addicted to alcohol, so I asked my brother Yao to steal wine under the banner of the prince's wedding, knowing that he was young, and persuaded him to drink a few glasses, without taking care of his body at all. Yang Ting said and leaned down: "Yang Ting knows that he is guilty, and he also knows that military law is ruthless, please forgive the general." ”

Liu Yuan looked at Yang Ting deeply, beside him was Liu Yao's repeated begging for mercy, his voice softened three points, and asked: "Do you know that military regulations are sacred to me, and I have never broken the regulations for anyone." He squatted down: "Yao'er is not a soldier, if I listen to him, you don't have to leave this army." ”

Yang Ting paused, and also looked at Liu Yuan: "It's my fault." ”

Liu Yuan nodded, and said in a low voice: "If you want to gamble, it's a big deal to lose and leave, but if you win Yao'er's heart, Yao'er will never be very human in the future, and she will not forget your righteous deeds today, not to mention that you once saved his life." But if you win, you can still make contributions in my army, and you can still be Yao'er's right-hand man in the future. Liu Yuan patted Yang Ting's shoulder: "You are a smart person." ”

"General......" Yang Ting still wanted to say something, but Liu Yuan had already gotten up.

"Military regulations can't be violated," Liu Yuan said, and said to Liu Yao: "Yao'er, today is also a lesson for you, even if you are my son, you must abide by the rules." You go back to your room, reflect on it, copy the Art of War three times, and when you are done, you can come out. ”

"Yes," Liu Yao responded, and glanced at Yang Ting with great anxiety: "Then, what about Yang Ting?" ”

"Twenty sticks, let's go and be the head of the army for three months." After Liu Yuan finished speaking, he didn't look at Yang Ting, turned around and left.
