After the four young men in the capital left, Ma Xiang turned his head to look at Lin Feng: "Today was originally to get together with two friends, but I didn't expect this room to be booked by Hou Ye first. Saying that, he sent an invitation to Lin Feng: "Master Hou, the two friends I invite today are Liu Yupeng, the son of Liu Huaien, the envoy of the Zhaoyi Festival of Hedong Province, and Niu Fei, the son of the Fujian Observation Envoy of Jiangnan Province. My two virtuous brothers worship Hou Ye very much, I wonder if Hou Ye can have a meeting? ”

It turned out to be a gathering of several second-generation officials, it seems that Ma Xiang is not bad, and the two people who have made friends should not be bad, so he simply nodded and said: "Okay, it's better to be respectful than to obey!" It's just that this room is a little embarrassed to take advantage of people's favors. But today I have promised you brothers, so it is not good to change the room, and I hope that Brother Ma will understand! ”

Ma Xiang smiled heartily: "Haha, where does Hou Ye say, there is always a first to come, I also heard that Hou Ye loves the people like a son, and he is even more considerate to his subordinates, and today is a lesson!" As he spoke, he stretched out his hand sideways and said, "Master Hou, please!" ”

Lin Feng turned his head to look at Chen Qi and Yuan Biao and nodded: "Let the brothers eat and drink well, and I will be with you again in the evening!" Then he turned to Ma Xiang and stretched out his hand: "Brother Ma, please!" ”

"Please!"

。。。

After arriving in another room, there were already two people sitting inside, and after seeing the two of them come in, the two stood up and hugged their fists and said: "Brother Ma, it's been more than a year since we parted last time, and we only arrived today, so you're late, and you'll have to be fined three glasses of wine!" ”

"Okay, punishment! Ha ha... Ma Xiang nodded with a smile, and then pointed to one of them and introduced: "Master Hou, this is Liu Yupeng, the son of the Zhaoyi Festival of Hedong Province, the third in the family, known as Liu Sange!" Then he pointed to another person and introduced: "This is Niu Fei, the son of the Fujian Observation Envoy of Jiangnan Province." ”

Saying that, Ma Xiang turned around and explained to the two: "Two virtuous brothers, this is the famous Shannan Daojie envoy, the first-class loyal martial marquis Lin Feng. Marquis Chungwu is what you often mention in your daily letters! ”

The two of them were stunned for a moment, and then the two of them bowed one by one: "Master Hou!" ”

Lin Feng waved his hand and said with a grin: "Don't, see that the two of you are not younger than me, just call me by name, we are a gathering between friends and brothers, don't mention any official positions, those are all nothing!" ”

The two glanced at each other, and Niu Fei also replied with the same grin: "Master Hou's personality is in line with my old cow's appetite!" Master Hou, don't look at me like this, the main reason is that I'm too anxious, I'm just twenty this year! ”

Lin Feng looked at Niu Fei, who was as dark and strong as a savage, and asked in disbelief, "Brother, is this true?" ”

"Uh-huh, seriously!" Niu Fei's head nodded like a chicken pecking rice.

Lin Feng patted him on the shoulder, slapped him twice on the chest, and said with a smile: "Haha, it's really not like it!" If you don't dislike it, brother, just call me Brother Feng, don't shout from Hou Ye, it's too outward! ”

Niu Fei stretched out his hand and patted his chest and laughed: "Haha, I like to be cheerful!" As he spoke, he picked up a glass of wine from the table and said to Lin Feng, "Brother Feng, I toast you!" ”

Lin Feng stretched out his hand to stop him, shook his head and said with a smile: "Since you are a refreshing person, how can you drink it from such a small cup?" Saying that, Lin Feng took the cup in his hand and threw it to the ground, picked up two bowls from the table and poured them full, handed him a bowl of wine, patted his chest and said, "Come, brother!" It is a heroic hero who must have true feelings, and the husband has no amount of alcohol! ”

Liu Yupeng, who was on the side, was not to be outdone, and also stopped them: "Wait, Master Hou, there are more than just you two heroes and husbands in this room!" As he spoke, he also took two bowls and poured wine, and handed one to Ma Xiang.

Lin Feng stretched out his hand to signal to wait, and then pointed at Ma Xiang first: "Brother Ma is the biggest!" Then he pointed at Liu Yupeng: "You must be older than me, since people call Liu Sange, then I will also call you Liu Sange!" ”

"Master Hou can't!" Liu Yupeng stretched out his hand to stop.

Lin Feng put down the bowl in his hand and feigned anger: "Could it be that Third Brother Liu dislikes me?" ”

Liu Yupeng hurriedly waved his hand and explained: "No, no, it's just... ”

"What's it?" Lin Feng interrupted him: "Big man, what is there to talk about!" Brothers are brothers, how can there be any marquis, adults or something! If you don't dislike me, you can call me Xiao Feng or Brother Feng in the future! ”

Seeing Lin Feng say this, Third Brother Liu couldn't excuse himself anymore, and nodded: "Okay, it's called Brother Feng!" ”

Then Lin Feng pointed at Niu Fei: "Xiao Fei is the youngest, I will call you Xiao Fei in the future!" ”

"Well said, well said! Ha ha... Niu Fei patted his chest and laughed.

Lin Feng picked up the bowl and shouted at the three of them: "It's a heroic hero who must have true feelings, how can a husband have no drink!" Dry! ”

Then the four of them touched the bowls together, and shouted at the same time: "If it is a hero, there must be true love, and the husband will not have the amount of alcohol!" Dry! ”

After drinking, they sat down one by one, Ma Xiang looked at Niu Fei and asked, "Xiao Fei, why are you in such a hurry to find me this time?" ”

After Niu Fei heard this, he patted his head, threw the pig's trotters in his hand into the bowl, slapped the table with a "snap", and said angrily: "I asked the two brothers to help me find a way!" ”

Liu Sange interjected on the side and asked, "What's wrong?" What's wrong with you? ”

Niu Fei's angry head tilted: "It's not that Murong Jing, the envoy of Hunan Jiedu, united with the Jiangxi Observation Envoy of Jiangnan Province, the Observation Envoy of Eastern Zhejiang, and the Observation Envoy of Eyue to squeeze out my father, and now my father's position is already very unsecure!" ”

Ma Xiang frowned, chewed a piece of mutton, and said after a while: "It's not too difficult, the Zhedong Observation Envoy and the Eyue Observation Envoy are closer to our Huainan Road, and I can find a way to talk to these two people!" Jiangxi Observation made me have to try to think of a way! As he spoke, he smiled at Niu Fei: "Brother, don't worry, you won't stand by when you are a brother!" ”

Third Brother Liu shook his head on the side: "Xiaofei, I can't help with this matter, if you need money or some manpower, I can still help." ”

Niu Fei nodded, looked at Third Brother Liu and said, "It's okay, Third Brother, I understand your situation!" ”

Lin Feng watched the two of them express their positions, embarrassed not to say anything, and reached out to pat Niu Fei's arm: "Xiaofei, don't worry!" I'll help you think of a way, isn't it just a little Hunan observer! ”

Niu Fei glanced at Lin Feng gratefully, picked up a bowl of wine and said to me, "Brother Feng, brother thank you here!" Whether you help it or not, I salute you for this bowl of wine! As he spoke, he leaned on the head of the bull and drank all the wine in the bowl.

Ma Xiang shook his head and said to Lin Feng: "Brother Feng, this Hunan observation envoy Murong Jing's power is not small, he is the most powerful one in Jiannan Dao, and the relationship with the four famous fathers in the capital is also relatively close, looking at the current situation, the imperial court is about to cancel the observation envoy of Jiangnan Province, I think it won't be long before Jiangnan Dao will launch a festival envoy, hey!" ”

Niu Fei looked at this and that, scratched his head, and said embarrassedly: "Oh, look at me, I just met Brother Feng today, so I said these things!" It's so disappointing, come on, don't talk about it! As he spoke, he got up and began to pour them wine: "Come, drink!" ”

Liu Sange also followed Niu Fei's words on the side: "Yes, yes, drink!" Let's not talk about these things today, go back and find an opportunity, let's sit down and sum up, and think about what can be done! ”

All four of them were young people, and they were temperamental, and with the effect of alcohol, they mingled in a short time, and drank until the evening was approaching.
