Chapter 466: A Cup of Wine Releases Military Power (II)
Hearing this, Father-in-law Yu smiled and said:
"The convention is not a decree, it was not before, now you can start with the Taishi, the Taishi doesn't have to care."
Lan Ziyi was burying his head in eating vegetables at this time, and he didn't seem to care about the conversation between Qi Zhun and Grandpa Long, but in fact, Lan Ziyi was thinking about what Grandpa Yu meant. According to the judgment of Qiu Xiaozhi and Qiu Wenruo before, today's table meal is definitely not for Lan Ziyi, Lan Ziyi has no soldiers, and there is no need to set up a banquet and calculate, so the only person who may be targeted is Qi Zhun. But now that Qi Zhun has been talking for a long time, he is going to be released back to the town, which doesn't seem like he is messing with him, so is today's show really to clean up Lan Ziyi? What's more, is it to clean up the Northern Army?
Thinking of this, Lan Ziyi looked up at the two fathers-in-law, and the father-in-law was pushing the cup with Qi Zhun at this time, and he was drunk, and there was no hidden relationship between his eyebrows. However, Father-in-law Yu is also an old fritter with a lot of city government, and it is normal for Lan Ziyi to not see it.
Then Lan Ziyi looked at Grandpa Long again, but he didn't think about it and found that Grandpa Long was also smiling slightly, staring at Lan Ziyi silently. This discovery shocked Lan Ziyi's scalp and almost fell off the stool, think about it, if you suddenly found out that you were actually the one being observed when you were secretly observing others, how shocked would you be?
Lan Ziyi subconsciously staggered his gaze away from Grandpa Long's gaze, but it was too late, Grandpa Long had already seen through Lan Ziyi's thoughts. Gonggong Long lowered his voice and asked Lan Ziyi with a smile:
"What's on Wei Hou's mind?"
When Lan Ziyi heard the words, he had already turned his face to the bowl, and was busy eating with his head buried in it, when he heard this, he shook his head and said:
"Nothing."
Gonggong Long didn't say anything more when he heard this, after thinking about it, he stretched out his hand and patted Lan Ziyi's knee, he comforted Lan Ziyi and said:
"Don't be afraid, Wei Hou, you can eat this table of food today, don't worry. As long as you calm down and follow King De, you will be indispensable for prosperity and wealth in the future. ”
When Father-in-law Long said the word "future", Lan Ziyi felt a heart-piercing pain in his head, which was much more severe than the headache he felt after seeing Grandpa Long on weekdays.
But the strange thing is that as soon as Gonggong Long finished speaking, Lan Ziyi's headache stopped, and then thought of the fact that every time he saw Gonggong Long, Lan Ziyi would feel a headache, and Lan Ziyi couldn't help but wonder if this Gonggong Long had any strange skills, maybe it could be related to Lan Ziyi's Maoren bloodline.
However, this kind of thing can be considered later, and the thing that can arouse Lan Ziyi's mind the most at the moment is the matter of King De that Gonggong Long just said.
Just when Lan Ziyi was holding his forehead and thinking about the problem, Gonggong Long spoke again and asked:
"Why did Wei Hou throw away the chopsticks?"
Lan Ziyi was shocked again when he heard this, and looked down to see that the chopsticks had fallen under his feet. It turned out that the headache just now made him lose his chopsticks, and he didn't even know it. What would Lan Ziyi's expression distort when he hurt just now?
Lan Ziyi looked up and observed the surrounding people, but fortunately, everyone was busy pushing the cup and changing the lamp, and no one noticed him. At the same time, Gonggong Long also whispered to the little eunuch waiting next to him for a new pair of chopsticks, he handed it to Lan Ziyi and said:
"Here, Wei Hou, use a new one."
Lan Ziyi took the chopsticks and said thank you, he wondered why Grandpa Long didn't ask him why he threw away the chopsticks, but when Lan Ziyi saw Grandpa Long's smug smile, he was not interested in asking again. Gonggong Long must have some evil arts, he knows that Lan Ziyi's head must hurt, otherwise it would be impossible to smile so confidently, and Lan Ziyi needs to ask his mother about this matter.
But it's still the same sentence, these things can be done slowly later, and Lan Ziyi has other things to ask at the moment. Lan Ziyi said:
"I came from Luoyan Pass to defend the king, and I've always wanted to do so, but ...... King De didn't like me, so to speak, he hated me very much. ”
When Gonggong Long heard this, he showed a more violent expression for the first time, he raised his head and said "ha", as if he was laughing dryly, as if mocking, and then he said:
"Wei Hou doesn't care about King De......"
After saying that, Gonggong Long should have noticed that he had broken his word, so he restrained his expression vigilantly, and looked around, just like Lan Ziyi was around just now, and after seeing that no one was paying attention, Gonggong Long rephrased and said:
"Wei Hou doesn't have to care about King De, King De is like this now just because he is young and ignorant, when he grows up and understands the reason, he will naturally get close to a virtuous and upright person like Wei Hou."
Lan Ziyi closed his eyes and lowered his head, and said to Father-in-law Yu that he owed his body, and the right to agree was agreed. He didn't dare to open his eyes, because that would definitely make Gonggong Long see what was on his mind, Gonggong Long didn't take King De seriously at all, but King De took Gonggong Long as a thing, which was a big problem.
Seeing Lan Ziyi hanging his head, Gonggong Long went one step further and added:
"Don't worry, Wei Hou, I promise that King De will correct it, it just takes time."
When Lan Ziyi heard this, he put away his thoughts, he raised his head and nodded to Gonggong Long, and then turned his head to eat.
Gonggong Long looked at Lan Ziyi, as if he was thinking about whether Lan Ziyi's appearance was true or false, if it continued like this, Lan Ziyi would inevitably be interrogated by Gonggong Long. Fortunately, Father-in-law Yu spoke at this time and relieved Lan Ziyi. 玉公公 says:
"I said Gonggong Long, what are you talking about when you pull Wei Hou? I just said that Qi Hou Gong ranked first in this expedition, what do you and Wei Hou think? ”
Hearing this, Gonggong Long turned around and smiled:
"That's natural, Qi Hougong is the first is a foregone conclusion, I naturally agree. You're right, Wei Hou? ”
Father-in-law Long turned his attention away from Lan Ziyi, Lan Ziyi was naturally happy, but in a blink of an eye, the topic turned to Qi Rongxun's military exploits, which was a little abnormal, and what was even more abnormal was that Long and Yu actually recommended Qi Rongxun to be the first in military merit, the father and son of the Qi family were Zhang Mingyue's people, could it be that the two fathers-in-law were willing to give up their military exploits?
However, this kind of work made Lan Ziyi settle down. There will be no pie in the sky, Lan Ziyi vaguely felt that the two fathers-in-law today were so profitable.
If it was left when Lan Ziyi had just entered the city this morning and was taken away by Qi Rongxun to the Jihu camp, Lan Ziyi would naturally be angry and slap the table and stand up to fight for merit, but after seeing Qi Rongxun, Lan Ziyi felt that this person was not the kind of tyrant who turned the clouds and rain, and then remembered the friendship with Qi Rongxun on the battlefield, Lan Ziyi did not want to conflict with the Qi family's father and son. What's more, the confrontation with Zhang Mingyue just now also made Lan Ziyi understand, he is just a dog that bites, and the two fathers-in-law are the masters behind the scenes, and both of them have agreed that Qi Rongxun is the first in military merit, so what does Lan Ziyi have to fight for?
So Lan Ziyi stopped his chopsticks, nodded and said:
"That's what I thought, too."
Unexpectedly, as soon as Lan Ziyi said it, Father-in-law Yu scolded him and said:
"Yes, yes, no, no, why are you ambiguous?"
Lan Ziyi was puzzled by the second monk who was asked by Father-in-law Yu, obviously he was echoing the two of them dead eunuchs, but now what does it mean for him to pick out the bones in the eggs?
Lan Ziyi looked at Father-in-law Yu with some anger and wanted to ask what happened, but when Lan Ziyi saw Father-in-law Yu's face, he understood what Father-in-law Yu meant, Father-in-law Yu wanted Lan Ziyi to bite the father and son of the Qi family.
This is inexplicable, you have opened your mouth to give benefits to others, what does it mean to let Lan Ziyi bite now? Asking for a kickback?
After thinking about it, Lan Ziyi could only sigh silently in his heart, he couldn't mention the mood of competing with Qi Rongxun at all now, with how many adults like it, he Lan Ziyi was too lazy to be an eagle dog. But after all, under the fence, you can't help but go through the motions. So Lan Ziyi picked up the chopsticks and picked up the vegetables, and said in an indifferent tone:
"Father-in-law Yu, it's not right for you to say that, my Lan Ziyi was born and died, and I was in the first row every time the cavalry charged, why did the first effort go to Qi Hou's head?"
As soon as Lan Ziyi finished speaking, someone at Du Qi's table retorted:
"Taishi led the army to help, and Qi Hou was born and died, why can't he take the lead? It would be unfair for Wei Hou to do this. ”
The peach chase tiger on the table behind Lan Ziyi wanted to jump up and answer when he heard this, but he was stopped by Lan Ziyi's gesture, Lan Ziyi wished that someone would come out to refute it, anyway, it was a formality, Lan Ziyi didn't want to drag it out for too long.
But Lan Ziyi didn't want to continue to fight, but someone spoke for him, Qi Zhun actually said at this time:
"I have a general understanding of the process of this expedition, whether it is arranging troops or strategizing, Weihou is a step above the dog, and it should indeed be Weihou first."
