Chapter 556: Dragon Teng (33)
The silk and bamboo orchestra is as beautiful as heaven, and the delicacies of wine and delicacies are all treasures that ordinary people may not be able to eat in their lifetime, even if they are not inferior to the treasures of the imperial food in the palace. If it weren't for the lack of charming little girls singing and dancing during the banquet, it would have made people think that they were drinking and feasting in Chang'an, Luoyang and other Tongdu cities at this moment, and they forgot that they were in the army of ten thousand horses at the Yellow River ferry at the moment.
There are strict rules in the barracks, and no matter how generous Li Yuan is, he will not allow his subordinates to drink casually. What's more, such a table banquet is of extraordinary value, not to mention ordinary soldiers, even those military generals with the rank of general can't afford it. The only ones who can put on such a show are those children of the family in the Jinyang Army.
The banquet was held in Chai Shao's tent, and he was naturally in the first place. Next to him was Li Yuan's eldest son, Li Shimin, and the rest of the guests were all children of the family who followed Li Yuan. These people may be from famous families, and some of them are relatives of the Li family. Naturally, the military laws and regulations could not control their heads, and they had a lot of money in their hands, and preparing such a good banquet was nothing more than a gesture of effort for them, and it was not a big deal.
When attacking Pujin before, Jinyang's soldiers and horses were quite damaged, and now although they are victorious, they still have to take a little rest. In addition, it was necessary to wait for Li Shentong and the Chai family's army to come to join the army, so Li Yuan ordered a truce for a few days. The military men practice and repair every day, and this class of families has nothing to do.
Most of them are gentlemen who advocate pleasure, and they have been taken into account because of the military emergency before, so where can they endure loneliness at this time? What's more, some people suffered a lot with Li Jiancheng's attack on Pujin before, and Li Jiancheng himself almost lost his life, and he had to make up for it.
Chai Shao invited these people to come and drink today, which is both a celebration and a sense of consolation. The sons of each family also came up with their own means, using their own wealth and power, or raising fine wine or preparing exquisite ingredients, or letting the music class secretly brought by them perform in front of the table. It is not only to please Chai Shao and Li Jiancheng, but also to show his own financial strength.
The family that has ruled the world for hundreds of years has its own powerful heritage, and this table of banquets is considered to be the top in Jinyang City, and it is even more indispensable to be able to prepare it in the army of ten thousand horses. This group of family members was so unhappy with their faces, only Li Jiancheng's face was as heavy as water, and he was sullen, only drinking vigorously and refusing to talk and laugh with the people around him.
This group of people from a family has first-class skills in observing words and feelings, and seeing that Li Jiancheng's face is gloomy, everyone gradually loses interest in having fun. Although under Li Yuan's strict orders, the army kept the battle situation of Pujin Ferry secret, but the news that Li Jiancheng was defeated and almost lost his life has long been spread. also knew that Li Jiancheng failed to impeach Xu Le, but instead watched him become a cavalry general. The dignified Li family has suffered losses one after another, and it is reasonable that he is in a bad mood.
This matter involves the dispute between the Li family brothers, and it is detrimental to Li Jiancheng's face, and everyone must pretend to be confused on their faces, and it is difficult to explain it clearly. Fortunately, although there is no longevity in this family, it is a housekeeping skill to appease by knocking on the side, and you don't have to worry about finding a topic.
Dou Fengjie, who was also a relative of Uncle Lang with Li Jiancheng, rolled his eyes, raised his wine glass and left the table and got up to look up and down in front of Chai Shao, and said with a smile: "Chai Dalang, I heard that you were beaten, have you ever hurt your muscles and bones?" I heard that the lance hurt the waist, this place ...... But it's very important. If there is really any injury, you have to explain to the national government, and the public will punish Xu Le! He must not be spared! ”
The sons of the family laughed forward and back, but Chai Shao didn't think it was angry. After all, he was mixed with rangers when he was a teenager, and he was used to hearing all kinds of meat words, and the meat words in the mouths of the children of the family like Dou Fengjie were worse than those light chivalrous teenagers, and they had no effect on Chai Shao at all.
He raised his glass and drank the wine, and scolded with a smile: "You don't know who your surname is when you eat three cups of yellow soup, and you can say such words?" If you want to know if I am injured or not, it is easy to send your little soldier who is not far from your side to a certain account, and the Ming Dynasty will know if she asks herself! ”
Dou Fengjie put a hotly beaten singer Yi Hai and Ben, dressed up as a personal soldier and brought it with him, all the people in this family knew it, and there was a burst of laughter when they heard the words. Unexpectedly, Chai Shao openly opened the meat cavity, but Dou Fengjie didn't know what to say. Chai Shao pushed the wine glass in front of Dou Fengjie: "See if you dare to make fun of Yu next time, and punish you with three glasses!" ”
After drinking three glasses of wine one after another, Dou Fengjie threw the wine glass to the ground, and said with the strength of the wine: "Laughing is laughing, but I can't swallow this breath!" What kind of thing is Xu Le? The ancestor is just the general of the Li family, and his son is even more with the wrong person, and he ends up in flames. He was taken away by his grandfather and became a farmer in Shenwu. Such pig-like characters, relying on how many catties of strength they have, want to bully us, is there such a reason in the world? People say, isn't it? ”
He glanced at everyone present, and the family members nodded or remained silent, but their eyes were clearly full of approval.
Dou Fengjie's words can be regarded as speaking to the hearts of everyone present. They may not necessarily have a good friendship with Chai Shao, nor may they all have a grudge against Li Shimin, nor do they necessarily want to participate in the struggle between the Li family brothers. The reason why they fully supported Li Jiancheng this time was because Xu Le knocked Chai Shao off the horse.
The family is poor, just like the difference between the abyss. In the eyes of the family, no matter how he treats the Hanmen, it is a matter of course, and the slightest resistance from the Hanmen is a heinous crime. The world is in chaos, and the former top families are trampled under the feet of the military men they usually look down upon. Even the Li family, a family born in the military of the six towns of Xianbei, can become a top family in the north. In the eyes of these old-school families, this is the collapse of etiquette, and this is the intolerability of heaven!
The two generations of the Yang family, father and son, suppressed the family with all their might, intending to take over the power of the world, and finally caused chaos in the world. The purpose of overthrowing the Great Sui was to rebuild an era in which the family managed everything, not to let those military men trample the family under their feet again. Xu Le dared to make a move against Chai Shao for his subordinates, this is a big rebellion! If you don't punish them severely and stop this trend, I don't know how many military men will take advantage of the opportunity to rise up and become a new family, seize their own power, wealth and even step on their heads. This is absolutely not a no-go!
If it weren't for Xu Le's bravery, the elite Xuanjia cavalry, and Li Shimin's support behind him, these families would have taken action to punish Xu Le first. They teamed up to launch an offensive and put pressure on Li Yuan to punish Xu Le, but they didn't expect Xu Le to become a cavalry general unscathed, which made them even more alarmed. Relying on martial arts and strength can achieve meritorious deeds, what else does the family need to do? What will the world become? Now that the family of the past has appeared, there is no way to make it easier, and the new family of military and Han must not appear again!
Dou Fengjie's words can be regarded as representing the attitude of all the families present, Xu Le can't stay! It was originally a harmonious banquet, but it instantly became a little more murderous.
Xie Shufang coughed: "Martial arts in troubled times." Le Langjun has outstanding skills, and he is naturally valued by the country. What's more, Guogong is a person who misses the old, and the Xu family has worked for the Li family for several generations, and he did have some credit back then. Therefore, it is inevitable to take care of this old man in the future, even if he is rebellious, the prince of the country cannot bear to add to the crime. ”
Dou Fengjie said: "That's why my generation can't sit idly by!" If you don't teach him a lesson this time, I don't know what I'm going to do next time! Isn't it just killing a fishclub? If it weren't for the fact that Bishamen sent troops first, and after the Sichang soldiers attacked the enemy, Yujuluo's mind would not have been his turn. You can't just because he has this little credit, you can do whatever you want, and no one can cure it! He has strength, but don't we? Jun Xuan, your horse lance is also good, I heard that against Yujuluo, you also had a decisive match, right? Even if you are defeated alone, let's find a few more people, and everyone is afraid that they won't be able to defeat him? In fact, if you want me to see it, Jun Xuan and Si Chang are enough. When the time comes, how he hurts Si Chang, let Si Chang beat him how to be fair! You say don't you? ”
Chai Shao's face sank at this time: "Dou Dalang, you have drunk too much wine and don't want to involve me." When will I agree to do such a ridiculous thing with you? The army has its own law, and if you fight recklessly and bravely fight privately, you will eat military law! We are all our own family, and my father-in-law is generous and generous, and some small mistakes on weekdays are nothing. But if anyone violates military law, the first one will not agree! Besides, your method can't be put on the table, even when a certain family is messing with rangers in their hometown, they never regard bullying more and less as glory! ”
Dou Fengjie's words before were convinced by the sons of the family, so he got a little carried away, thinking that his idea was clever, and he cleaned up Xu Le in the way of a martial artist, and he had no place to complain, let alone have the face to mess around in the barracks. No matter how you look at it, it is a good deal to make sure you don't lose money, but I didn't expect Chai Shao to suddenly turn his face.
The daughter of the Li family has always been the only one who looks forward to Li Xiuma, and Li Chan is no exception. Chai Shao has a chivalrous style, and often wants to use force when he disagrees, although Dou Fengjie is also a son of a martial artist, but in terms of skills, he is a day and a place away from Chai Shao, and he is also afraid of this eldest brother-in-law from the bones. The husband and wife are afraid of others, at this time Chai Shao turned his face, how could Dou Fengjie dare to speak? Renmu is neither advancing nor retreating there, or Xie Shufang stepped forward with a smile: "Dou Langjun is drunk and says a few jokes, Chai Langjun should not take it seriously." Come on, let's have a few more drinks. As he spoke, he pulled Dou Fengjie back to his seat.
Chai Shao snorted and looked at Li Jiancheng beside him: "Da Lang, it's too stuffy in this tent, you come out with me for a walk." ”
Li Jiancheng didn't know what kind of medicine this brother-in-law was selling in the gourd, but he knew that he wouldn't say this for no reason, so he had to get up and go out with him.
This area is all the camp of the Chai family, and the patrol guards hurriedly avoided it when they saw their own generals appearing. After Chai Shao and Li Jiancheng walked dozens of steps, they suddenly stopped and said in a low voice: "If Uncle Yue wants to achieve a big thing, he must have a general to assist him, and he can't spoil a big thing because of a momentary dispute of will." Just a few Xu Le are like grass mustard, life and death are not enough, but you can't chill the hearts of the heroes in the world. Nowadays, people's hearts are not ancient, and it is purely a pipe dream to expect a strong man to vote just to report his family number. It is necessary for my generation to put down his body and make friends with the heroes of the world, which is the bearing that the hero should have in troubled times. ”
Li Jiancheng was also a little afraid of this sister-in-law, and it was difficult to argue with what the other party said, so he had to respond: "Something will be done." ”
"I know you're uncomfortable, and this tone will naturally help you out, but not now. Right now, I can give you another credit to wash away the shame of Pujin, but I don't know if you have the guts. ”
"Credit? How's the credit? ”
"Capture the merit of Chang'an!"
