Chapter 320: The Banquet Continues
Luo Zhaoyun sent Yu Shinan away, just returned to the hall, and someone came to visit, this person was dressed in a chivalrous suit, tall figure, and lofty spirit, it was Wang Bodang, who was close to thirty years old, and when he was standing, his physical strength was at his peak, and he had a strong breath between walking. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"General Luo, Bertaunt has come to pay a visit."
Although Luo Zhaoyun is younger than him, his identity and status are not the same, if he is too humble and approachable, he will lack the arrogance that a nobleman should have, and it is easy to be despised behind him.
Therefore, Luo Zhaoyun was not as direct as calling his brother and brother, and smiled slightly: "Bodang is here, please sit down and talk." β
Wang Bodang still does not have a title, so he is still a little in awe of Luo Zhaoyun's identity as a marquis, especially when he heard that he can fight with Yucheng for ten rounds without defeat, and he admires it even more, the other party's title, official position, and background are far higher than his humble family, so there is still a sense of hierarchy in his bones, which is innate, so he said respectfully: "General Luo, Bodang came to disturb, it was really the Duke of Pushan who sent me over to send an invitation, and asked General Luo to go to the Pushan Mansion tomorrow for a banquet." β
"Oh, it turned out that Brother Li of Pushan Gong set up a banquet, it is a great honor, I, Luo Zhaoyun, will definitely go to the party." Luo Zhaoyun's relationship with Li Mi is okay for the time being, but he doesn't plan to have a deep friendship, because Li Mi is about to rebel with Yang Xuangan, he doesn't want to be burdened, and later, if Li Mi rebels in Wagangzhai, he can't figure out that he still has troops to encircle and suppress.
Wang Bodang sighed: "General Luo came in person, I believe many people will be happy, in the past few years, there will always be news that you have won Tuyuhun at the border pass, it is really a heroic youth, Wang has been established in the year, but he has not served the court in this way, showing his opportunities, and making people." β
Luo Zhaoyun said: "Uncle you are superb in martial arts, in the past few years in Pushan Gong Li Mi, you have learned a lot of wisdom and the art of war, and you will inevitably become a brave and good general in the future, but the time is just wrong, I believe that sooner or later, you will be able to learn in real combat in your life." β
When Wang Bodang heard Luo Zhaoyun's high evaluation, he was originally a little annoyed and disappointed, but he suddenly rekindled his hope and lifted his spirits, feeling that General Luo was so naturally handsome and talented, and he was optimistic about his future, and he must have a play.
"There is an opportunity for General Lauro to introduce him to Bertan in the future."
Luo Zhaoyun nodded and affirmed: "Yes, sooner or later, there will be a war in the Great Sui, and when the time comes, if Bo is willing to participate, I can send someone to say that I will recruit you to join the army, but I am afraid that Pushan Gong will not let you go as an excellent protΓ©gΓ© and brother." β
Wang Bodang's eyes lit up, revealing a look of longing, and he hugged his fists and said: "If you can go into battle to fight, Bodang is naturally willing, Pushan Gong, I will make sense, I believe he can understand my thoughts." β
Luo Zhaoyun didn't say anything, he didn't want to win over Wang Bodang sincerely, because this person had too deep a relationship with Li Mi, and it was not something he could change at all, so Luo Zhaoyun was self-aware and didn't have a deep relationship with Wang Bodang, but he would also help him appropriately.
The two talked for a while, Wang Bodang asked if it was hard to garrison the frontier, Luo Zhaoyun shook his head and smiled faintly, everyone's big goals and ideals are different, and the same thing has different meanings for different people.
After Wang Bodang left, it was already dusk, and Luofu began to hold the lights.
Because it is close to the Lantern Festival, a lot of red lanterns are hung in the house, and many red ribbons, banners, etc., are hung in the house to render the festive atmosphere.
Since gunpowder had not yet been invented in the Sui and Tang dynasties, there were no firecrackers and fireworks in the capital.
Many historical records show that the earliest gunpowder came out in the late Tang and early Song dynasties in the second half of the ninth century AD. It contains the "Danjing Inner Sulfur Method" by Sun Simiao, a medical scientist and alchemist in the early Tang Dynasty, from which it can be seen that the preliminary formula of gunpowder mixed with saltpeter, sulfur and charcoal was already mastered at that time.
The earliest complete publication of the formula and manufacturing process of gunpowder was the "General Essentials of the Martial Arts" written by the Northern Song Dynasty official Xiu Yuding.
Luo Zhaoyun has not thought about developing gunpowder for the time being, mastering such a sharp weapon is not the decisive factor in the stability of the Great Sui, as long as Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty is very happy, does not hesitate to do the people's strength, regards the people as mustard, and can trample on them casually, then there will be many uprisings in the world, and once the princes from all walks of life also know about gunpowder, it will be very dangerous for the future to compete for hegemony.
This is a big boost to the military, Luo Zhaoyun naturally has to hold it tightly in his hands, and wait to see the overall situation in the future before making a decision.
After Luo Zhaoyun sent Wang Bodang away, he went to the tightly guarded courtyard and visited Gao Yufei, half a month has passed since the last assassination of Emperor Yang of Sui, and the rumors have gradually subsided.
Therefore, Gao Yufei is now safe and can be sent out of the city with the help of the relaxed policy of the Lantern Festival.
"Yufei, I've already made arrangements, as soon as the Lantern Festival is over, I can send you out of the city the next day, I just don't know, where are you going?"
Gao Yufei has now lost the channel of communication with the outside world, so she can only go to the south of the Yangtze River, or return to Hebei to settle down.
"Brother Luo, will you stay in Luoyang all the time this year?"
Luo Zhaoyun shook his head and said: "After the beginning of spring, I will go north to Youzhou Province to visit my father." β
Gao Yufei's face was happy, and she said: "It's just right, I also plan to go back to Dai County and Zhuo County, just by the way, why don't you go on the road with Brother Luo at that time?" β
Luo Zhaoyun nodded, agreed, and said, "However, when the time comes, I may have to give you a disguise and change it, temporarily disguised as a maid or guard, so that you can confuse other eyeliner."
"Yu Fei understands that everything is arranged by Brother Luo." Gao Yufei smiled.
"How are your injuries, and do they still hurt?"
Gao Yufei heard that he cared about himself, and there was a warm current in his heart, and he was moved and said: "It doesn't hurt, thank you Brother Luo for taking care of me these days, I dare not forget this kindness for the rest of my life." β
Luo Zhaoyun smiled and said: "I met you twice before and after, maybe, this is the fate between us, don't think about repaying the favor, because when I saved you, there were not too many, and we will be friends in the future, let alone like this." β
Gao Yufei's eyes flickered, listening to his sincere words, her heart was greatly touched, she nodded, there was a little more tenderness and affection in her eyes, she also felt that she had a deep fate with Luo Zhaoyun, otherwise, she would not have been saved by him twice, just like her own guardian hero, so that she didn't know how to repay it in the future.
