Let's say that Shi Jin and Chen Da Yang Chun went out of Xunfu, lightly dressed and fast, and looked at the east city all the way.

I saw that the streets in the city were vertical and horizontal, extending in all directions, with shops on both sides, shops, teahouses, taverns, pawnshops, workshops, and foot shops innumerable; There are also a number of paving with large umbrellas in the open spaces on both sides of the street; The high-flying signboard flags, the endless flow of pedestrians, and the sparkling carriages and horses all show the prosperity and wealth of Yecheng in Jizhou.

Chen Da, the deputy general of the Ma Army, gently pulled the reins of the horse, followed the horse, looked at Yecheng, which was so prosperous in the troubled times, sighed, and said to the other two: "Do the two brothers remember where my hometown is?" ”

Yang Chun, the white flower snake, patted his head and shouted: "Haha, I didn't pay attention to my brother if I didn't mention it, my brother is from Yecheng." My brother has returned to his hometown...... Take a look...... Which one is your ancestor? ”

Chen Da ignored Yang Chun's ridicule, shook his head and sighed, and sighed: "A thunderbolt travels through a thousand years, Yecheng is Yecheng, and the hometown is not the hometown......

Yang Chun grinned and shouted, "Chen Da, you rough man, when did you become such a mother-in-law, where did you get such a sigh?" ”

Shi Jin grabbed Chen Da's shoulders and comforted him with a smile: "Brother doesn't have to feel nostalgic...... Since our brothers have been arranged by the mandate of heaven, they have followed Brother Song Jiang across the millennium, descended from the sky, swept away the heroes, and recast the country. We are self-defeating, working hard and fighting with all our lives...... At that time, the brothers will be famous in history, which is better than when you and I were in the Song Dynasty. At that time, the brother said that he was from Yecheng, this, that, that...... Be proud of your brothers......" Shi Jin said as he pointed to the people of Yecheng who were bustling by.

Along the way, talking all the way, half an hour later, Shi Jin and his party came to a restaurant in Dongcheng. In front of the door, a lookout rod was picked out, a wine sieve was hung, and the words "Zhujialou" were written on it, floating in the air. The three of them looked around and saw that the restaurant was carved and painted, and it was magnificent; There are many drinkers in the building, and it is very lively; Xiao Er is interspersed with it and ushered in the send-off.

Shi Jin stopped a shopkeeper and asked, "Where is your shopkeeper?" ”

The little second glanced at Shi Jin, and saw that it was a young general, full of armor, majestic, handsome and sunny, he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly replied: "General Hui, my shopkeeper is upstairs, but do you want the little one to come down?" ”

"No, I'll go to your shopkeeper for ......" Shi Jin smiled heartily, and took Chen Da Yang Chun to the second floor on the stairs.

The decoration on the second floor is elegant, there are few drinkers, a hall in the middle, all sides are private rooms, a light sandalwood is full of it, green bamboo and green vines are cool and comfortable, and the carved screen is antique. A man on the counter in the hall was busy, wearing a soft gauze scarf on his head, wearing a collar of silk light and rich clothes, with a large figure, a burly appearance, a fist and a bony face, and a three-pronged yellow hair, only with his head bowed to settle accounts.

Shi Jin shouted: "Shopkeeper! ”

The man looked up when he heard the voice, and when he saw that it was Shi Jin and the others, his face was full of surprise, and he also shouted: "Brother Shi Jin!" …… Chen Da Brothers, Yang Chun Brothers...... Why are you here? ......" called out and hurried out of the counter.

"Brother Zhu Gui...... Well done, big deal......" Shi Jin, Chen Da, and Yang Chun also greeted them, and Shi Jin shouted loudly.

However, it turned out that this shopkeeper was Zhu Gui, the deputy general of the Sounding Camp of the Expedition, who was entrusted by Yan Qing of the spy battalion and instructed by Dai Zong, the commander of the Expedition Battalion, to carry out intelligence gathering activities under the cover of a tavern in Jizhou.

"Shhhh......h......h

Shi Jin woke up, looked left and right, and saw that there were few people around, so he gently knocked on his head, and said with a hearty smile: "Shi Jin should be beaten, talking nonsense......"

Zhu Gui laughed and shouted, "It's okay, it's okay, it just so happens that there is no one upstairs." Come, three brothers, go into the elegant room and speak...... "He led the three of them to sit in a private room next to them, and called the little two to serve vegetables, meat, delicacies, and wine, and set a table high and low.

Shi Jin and the three of them cheered a few times, pounced on the table like a hungry tiger pounced on a sheep, each slapped a jar of wine, raised the altar to drink, and feasted.

Zhu Gui said with a smile: "Brothers, eat slowly, my brother runs a restaurant, and he has everything......"

Yang Chun raised the altar with both hands and poured wine into his mouth, and said vaguely: "Brother Zhu Gui, my brother doesn't know, what we are anxious about is not food, but this wine." …… Cuckoo...... Brother Song Jiang's military discipline is strict, and we haven't eaten wine for a while...... Goo ......"

Chen Da also raised his head, and he shouted: "Brother, your restaurant is also thriving, I see that the drinkers downstairs are crowded." ”

Zhu Gui's face was pale, but he deliberately shook his head and sighed, and said, "Brothers, don't laugh at me for not doing my job." I was ordered to open a restaurant here, just to find out all the way to the north. Blame only my brother Zhu Fu's good wine, this Yecheng drinkers do not distinguish between the noble and the low, the old and the young, rich and poor, all of them love to eat a bowl of wine in my restaurant. The city is full of roads: eat wine but go to Zhujialou, and relieve a thousand sorrows through the bottle of incense...... Hahaha, brothers, our wine is straight through the bottle, and the whole city loves it...... I can't help it, my restaurant has to get bigger and bigger...... For the sake of those distinguished guests, I also added a second-floor seat. On the first floor, the people of Pingtou were left to have a drink, so there were more lively people, and the second floor was reserved for distinguished guests, so it was quieter......"

Shi Jin poured a lot of gas, which also quenched his thirst, he put down the wine jar and said with a smile: "That's better...... It is even more convenient for my brother to inquire about the sound...... Oh, where is Brother Zhu Fu, I waited for the three of us to come for a long time and didn't see him show up......"

"My brother, ......" Zhu Gui's face was even more colorful, he stroked the slightly yellow short hair under his chin, and said with a smile, "It is because of the good wine he brewed that he was called by the housekeeper of the Yuan Mansion to make some wine for Yuan Shao, and he will return to the ...... in a few days."

Shi Jin praised it even more and said, "This is even more able to inquire about the voice...... Your two brothers are amazing......"

Zhu Gui smiled with a smile on his face, waved his hands straight, and said, "Where is it...... My brothers and I envy my brothers for being able to fight on the battlefield and be happy...... Which one is like us in one place, hiding the head and shrinking the face......"

While talking,

suddenly

"Shopkeeper Zhu, come to a jar of incense, but there are good dishes to come up ......"

A clear but somewhat decadent voice sounded.

"Okay, wait, guest officer...... Come and ...... right away," Zhu Guidui laughed and responded loudly. After answering, he said softly: "Brothers, eat, I'll come when I go" Zhu Gui hurriedly left ......the private room.

Shi Jin and the three of them indulged in eating and drinking, and seemed to want to replenish all the food and drink for several months.

Before long, Zhu Gui flashed in.

Shi Jin was about to shout.

"Shhhhh......h

"Brothers, do you know which one came to the second floor to eat? ......" Zhu Gui asked softly with a mysterious face.

"Hey...... Which of us knows? Brother Zhu Gui, don't tell us to guess ......" Chen Da exclaimed with an impatient face.

Shi Jin was curious, he thought that Zhu Gui must be an ordinary person when he asked like this, he asked, "But which one?" ……”

"Zhang He, Zhang Jun, ......" Zhu Gui's face was full of color.

"Who is this? ......" Yang Chun held the wine jar with both hands, looking dazed.

"Does he recognize us, or do we recognize him? ......" Chen Da also looked ignorant.

"Alas......" Zhu Gui pretended to fail, and talked to Xia Worm, but he was embarrassed and ruined, and lowered his voice and shouted: "Reckless! The lord asked you to know more about the heroes of the late Han Dynasty, know yourself and know the enemy, do you have to understand? Reckless ......"

Shi Jin's heart was beating violently, and then he smiled like a sunshine, patted Zhu Gui on the shoulder, and said in a low voice: "Brother Zhu Gui, don't pay attention to them." …… Zhang He, but later Cao Cao's famous generals, the same name as our Zhang Liao brothers? ”

Zhu Gui nodded, lowered his voice and said, "It is this Zhang He, a famous general under Cao Cao." Now he has just taken refuge in Yuan Shao and become a school captain...... At the beginning, he was Sima under Han Fu's account...... I can see that he is depressed in his heart, and he is eating and drinking. ……”

Shi Jin's heart moved, and he whispered to Zhu Gui: "What is he dissatisfied with?" Why don't I persuade him to return to my family, Brother Song Jiang? Is this also a big achievement? Brother Zhu Gui, do you remember that Brother Yan Qing recommended Zhao Yun, and Brother Song Jiang rewarded him greatly. If you can succeed, you may be able to make a good profit......"

Zhu Gui's heart pounded, and he shouted: "Brother Shi Jin is right, I'll go and find out ......" After speaking, he turned around and was about to go out.

Shi Jin patted Zhu Gui on the shoulder again, and said with a smile: "Such a good man, I will also go to see and see......"

Zhu Gui thought for a moment, nodded, and said, "That's fine, let the Shi Jin brothers come forward to speak." First, the brother is also dressed as a general; Second, I don't have to reveal my identity...... That's what led me to ......."

At that moment, Zhu Gui led Shi Jin to another private room.

Approaching the elegant room, only a faint chant could be heard from the elegant room: "The boy has failed his life's ambition, and Lego sings into the drunken country...... Into the drunken country ......"

Shi Jin praised loudly at the moment: "Good poetry, good poetry!" It's worth a drink......"

The chanting in the elegant room ceased immediately.

Zhu Gui glanced at Shi Jin, lifted the bamboo curtain and led Shi Jin into the elegant room, bowed down and said with a smile: "General, disturb the general's wine, if you really forgive it, it's a ......."

Shi Jin was very curious about Zhang He, entered the elegant room, and looked at the characters in the room with his eyes open. I saw that the elegant room was also dressed like my own, with a few cases in the middle, and a person kneeling at the head of the case, who was about twenty years old, wearing a scarf on his head, wearing a white silk robe, sword eyebrows and sideburns, a high nose bridge, and a resolute face. Shi Jin couldn't help but secretly say: "What a heroic figure!" ”

The man held the wine jar in his left hand, held a large bowl in his right hand, looked up at Shi Jin with blazing eyes, and sighed secretly in his heart: "What a handsome general......"

Shi Jin made a salute with his fists, smiled brightly, and said: "I stirred up the general's wine, I am ashamed to be ashamed ......."

The man raised his eyebrows, smiled slightly, and said, "The general also likes poetry?" ……”
