Chapter 5 Someone is looking for trouble

The birthday banquet accompanied the arrival of one distinguished guest after another, and it also entered the climax.

"You came to Mingfu today to attend my mother's birthday banquet, I am very grateful, and I would like to give you a drink." It is understandable for Ming Qi to preside over the birthday banquet as the head of the Ming family.

"Dingguo Gong is polite."

"That is, Dingguo Gong doesn't have to be so grand."

All the guests at the banquet also echoed one after another, and Mingtang and Mingjing, who were at the back of the banquet, whispered, how is the adult of this family, and how is the patriarch.

Zhu Jun and Li Jingtao were also listening to it, and they would make some additions from time to time.

"Sister, how do you know everything?" Mingtang was very curious, Mingjing was only thirteen or fourteen years old, how could he know the names and positions of so many officials in Chang'an City.

"I'm amazing, where can I only play all day long like my brother." Mingjing glanced at Mingtang and pouted.

"I'm ashamed of this." Mingtang was also taught a lesson, and Zhu Jun and Li Jingtao looked at it with a smile.

"Everyone has brought a lot of birthday gifts, and we are very grateful...... "The eldest brother of the Ming family held a piece of red paper and wrote down who gave what, who and who, and how.

"The Duke of Lu gave a piece of Huanghai Shoushan stone."

"Fu Guogong Mansion will give a picture of the South Mountain of Shenggude."

“……”

“……”

"The eldest grandson Mingtang presents a picture of the pine and snow scene of the Yellow Mountain welcoming guests"

"The second grandson Mingmen, Mingwu, and Mingming work together to present a pair of South China Sea 10,000-year-old turtles."

There are all kinds of things to give.

"Isn't the 10,000-year-old turtle a big one?" When Mingtang heard it, he felt that it was an exaggeration, where there was a 10,000-year-old turtle, and a 100-year-old turtle was rare in his time.

"The 10,000-year-old turtle is a kind of turtle name, this turtle back armor pattern is like a '10,000' word, and people are flattering to a good color, so it is called the 10,000-year-old turtle." Li Jingtao saw that Mingtang didn't know much about it, so he explained it to him, and he also heard that the eldest young master of the Ming family had amnesia after being attacked, so he also put down his body, if he put it aside before, he would naturally look down on this kind of innocent kid.

"Mingmen they should send young turtles, adult 10,000-year-old turtles generally live in the deep sea for a long time and rarely go to land, generally only when they give birth will go ashore once, adult is difficult to catch them and send a pair, so I guess it should be a hatchling turtle that has just hatched."

"Wow! The elder brother of the Li family is really knowledgeable and understands everything. "Mingjing almost has little stars in his eyes now.

"Cut, it's just that I read more idle books." Zhu Jun was very unconvinced.

"It's true that I read a lot of idle books, otherwise I wouldn't just be a Tanhualang, I should be a champion." Li Jingtao also fought back, these two little grandfathers are really interesting.

"After the dignified general, you want to take the name of a tanhualang, aren't you afraid that these uncles and uncles will laugh at you."

"If I have some fame after being a military general, I may be able to make ordinary people change some of their prejudices against the general, so as not to be known, it's too late for uncles and uncles to praise me, how can I laugh at it, I'm right, brother of the Ming family." Li Jingtao changed the topic and asked Mingtang, who was holding the pot.

"This ......" Mingtang didn't expect that the secret competition between the two little grandfathers would involve him.

"Brother Mingtang, you have to answer well, you only have one life." Zhu Jun smiled, and the silver cup in his right hand had been pinched and deformed.

Mingtang was gloomy behind him, and he smiled at the two of them in a blink of an eye.

"The elder brother of the Zhu family, the elder brother of the Li family, and the younger brother think that whether it is a military general's family to join the army, or to get fame in the temple, it is a good way, as for the result, it is all about why you should care about other people's opinions, becoming a general to protect the peace of the people, or becoming a pillar of governance to make the four seas peaceful and the country peaceful is a great thing." Mingtang talked about it, this kind of fooling people is more or less, but if you want to fool the two little grandfathers, you still have to answer seriously.

"Well said." Zhu Jun was the first to speak, and then Li Jingtao also raised his glass to signal to Mingtang.

"I've always heard that the Dingguo Mansion is very ridiculous, but today I see that I'm lonely and unheard, and sure enough, as the ancient Confucianism said, it's better to read thousands of books than to travel thousands of miles, and it's always untrue if you don't understand it in person." Li Jingtao was moved.

After what Mingtang said just now, Zhu Jun and Li Jingtao completely changed their impression of Mingtang, whether it was to become a pillar of governance or a military general, it was amazing.

The birthday banquet was carried out happily until Mingtang's brother Mingmen spoke up.

"Grandmother is your 60th birthday today, and your grandson has a friend who is a famous talent in Chengdu Mansion in Jiannan Province, and your grandson specially invited him to come over to celebrate your birthday." Mingmen is dressed up with a lofty spirit, and he is a bit of a "general" fan.

"yes, okay." The old lady simply said two words.

The genius straightened his waist and walked to the center of the main hall step by step along the back of the Ming Gate.

The man was dressed in white clothes, white pants and white shoes, and wore a blue hair crown.

"Old lady, below is Nie Chen, a person from Chengdu Mansion in Jiannan Province, who was invited by the young master of your mansion to celebrate the old lady's birthday."

"Okay, what method did the son use to celebrate his mother's birthday?" Dingguo Gongming Qi asked.

"I'm a reader, so of course I want to write a birthday poem to congratulate me." Nie Chen replied.

"Okay, we're all rough people, it's rare to have a scholar who can also cultivate and cultivate that thing, something called sentiment." Zhu Zhang's table was always some things with cows and pigs' heads, but he didn't care about the oily mouth.

"Okay, Nie Chen is not talented, then write a birthday poem to help the fun."

The wind blows on the side of the mountains in the South China Sea,

Blow a blow on an old man,

Fifty-nine years is a good time,

Today I want to be a birthday star again.

"Okay." The old lady just confided these two words, and there was nothing else.

"The mother of the house means that the poems of the son are very good, and the mother of the house is very happy." Ming Qi is still very thoughtful.

"yes, yes, yes."

"That's right, well done." The flatterers in the audience are good at one by one.

"What kind of talent, do limericks too?"

Everyone was amazed at what kind of person was speaking out so inappropriately in public.

Mingtang and a few people were also surprised, who was so bold, although the poems made by this genius were really not very good, but in the public, everyone was talking about face.

"Who is it?" The people were puzzled, but no one could be found.

After a while, he spoke up again: "I don't think it's as good as what Ming Tang Gongzi wrote, Mingtang Gongzi is very talented, what kind of talent is this wasted fame." ”

Mingtang almost got stuck in a sip of wine.

"I'll go, who is looking for trouble for me!"
