Chapter 2: Two Dragons (2)

"Xu Qing! Xu Qing! Come on in! Everyone was taking a shower and applying soap, but they also encountered the same problem as Li Yuan, that is, the foam could not be washed off. Then the water in the pool, I don't know how to release it. Everyone was covered in foam, just waiting for Xu Qing to come and save them.

Xu Qing hurriedly ran to the bathroom and saw seven or eight big men standing in the pool, not knowing whether to cry or laugh. The water was changed for them, and the soap was far away, so Xu Qing relieved them to take a bath.

Half an hour later, this group of "Chinese women" came out of the bath. Suddenly, Li Shimin laughed and pointed at Yu Chi Jingde and said: "Yu Chi has a black face, your face is not black, it was washed by Xu Qing's bath beans, is this not white?" ”

Then, there was a burst of laughter, and Gongsun Wuda also pointed at Yu Chi Jingde and said: "Hahaha, you see, Yu Chi's black face can still be red!" ”

"Hahahaha......"

Xu Qing then invited these uncles into his main hall, set up a few tables for banquets, and arranged seats one by one. Xu Qing was also surprised, and found that a person was missing, so he asked, "Where did General Wei Chi go?" ”

"Hahaha......"

"Xu Qing, your eldest brother Wei Chi is here, take a good look!" Wei Chi Jingde came out and said.

After a while, Gongsun Wuda urged him to eat quickly, Xu Qing clapped his hands, and then the people sent fruits and vegetables, stir-fried vegetables, rice, and immortal stuffed wine. Xu Qing took a glass of white water and said to Li Shimin: "King Qin rarely comes to our house once, come, I salute everyone!" ”

Everyone put down their chopsticks, picked up their wine glasses and took a sip. Xu Qing grinned like a drinker, and then looked at the people present, all of them intentionally or unintentionally grabbed the food on the table, and a group of hungry ghosts were reincarnated. Li Shimin was no exception, Xu Qing smiled, prepared to toast the second glass of wine, and put it down.

The things on everyone's table were almost clean, and only then did they regain a person who had been in the upper position of the old house.

"Hey! Lord Xu, where did you invite the chef, cough cough, can you send Ben Jiang? Gongsun Wuda looked at Xu Qing with a pleading face. Xu Qing shook his head and said, "This cook can't be borrowed, but Lord Gongsun can let his own cook come to learn the arts, and Xu will definitely cooperate." ”

"Eh, this, Xu Qing, ask your cook, can you bring one more apprentice?" During the banquet, an elderly man with a long beard said, Xu Qing looked at it, but he didn't know who this person was. Li Shimin observed his words and said: "This is Dugu Yanyun, a Xianbei person, who is now serving in our army. ”

"Oh?" Xu Qing's mouth opened wide, he didn't expect that Li Shimin would be able to accommodate a foreigner to serve in his army. But Xu Qing didn't think much about it, but arched his hand and said: "It's okay to charge a few more, if you are interested, you can send a chef to learn cooking, and those who come will not refuse." ”

As soon as these words came out, those who pretended not to care about them all arched their hands and said: "Lord Xu's good intentions, we are disrespectful, and we will definitely send someone to learn another day." ”

Xu Qing was stunned, and his heart still hadn't escaped the trap of these old foxes, seeing Xu Qing so deflated, everyone else was big and small. Li Shimin wiped his mouth, burped, and said with a smile: "Xu Qing, if you want to earn face in front of them, that's still far from it." ”

After a change of tone, Li Shimin smiled and said: "Xu Qing, now that Chang'an City has been closed, this king will sleep here tonight......"

"King Qin stays, that's my Xu Qing's honor." Xu Qing summoned the housekeeper to give an order, and opened these people's rooms in Xu Qing's original mansions, and after the order was finished, Xu Qing asked again: "King Qin broke Tuguhun in Lingzhou, Xu Qing dared to ask, why did he return to the dynasty now?" ”

A burst of light appeared in Li Shimin's eyes, and after looking at Xu Qing, Li Shimin said slowly: "I can't help but say it." After the battle in Lingzhou, I took the Han people who were enslaved by Tuyuhun back to Lingzhou, but on the way to the march, I looked around, but what I saw was the homeless people who could be seen everywhere along the way, and even the bones of starvation from time to time, exposed on the road. This king was soft-hearted, so he stayed in Lingzhou to help the local governance of the people's livelihood, and now he sees that the people are living and working in peace and contentment, and the grain in the fields is about to be harvested, isn't this coming back? Alas, it's also a discord with the charter, and after returning to Chang'an, I don't know how my father will punish ......"

Xu Qing persuaded: "The emperor is a Ming monarch, how can he blame His Highness, but His Highness cares about the people, this is the practice of the ancient sages." ”

The generals sitting in the lobby all secretly noticed Li Shimin at this time, but when they saw him, they asked: "Xu Qing, this king heard that someone was endangering your family in Lingzhou, what happened at this time, did you solve it?" Didn't you find out? ”

Which pot is not opened and which pot is mentioned, the generals thought that Xu Qinghui was chatting and talking about this matter at first, but they didn't expect Li Shimin to take the initiative to bring it up. Xu Qing was stunned for a moment, obviously not knowing where Li Shimin's sword was piercing.

Xu Qing thought about it and decided to pretend to be stupid: "Alas, all the people who came are dead, and I haven't caught them alive, how can I investigate?" It's just that, according to the information of my subordinates, one of the other party's leaders was shot and wounded by us, and not long ago, he was killed......"

The eldest grandson Wujian did die not long ago because of a red injury, but his funeral was very secret and low-key, and few officials in the court knew about it. Xu Qing said this, obviously meaning, don't look at me stupid, I actually know everything.

"Well, there are many young people in the world, and Lord Xu is young and ambitious, and he will be jealous of others." Li Shimin laughed again and said: "This king also heard that not long before Chang'an held a martial arts, Lord Xu went to my Shence army to select 4,000 soldiers. Ahem, I don't know if the official's soldiers are still in line with Lord Xu's appetite? ”

"Uh," Xu Qingxin said, he had known that he would pour a few more glasses of spirits before you were full, and now he asked about this kind of topic that no one wanted to talk about. However, Xu Qing also said with a smile: "King Qin's soldiers are naturally very good!" Everyone in the army is talking about how good King Qin's soldiers are, and I have created a new formation to break the cavalry, and there is a lack of some elite soldiers, so I went to the army of King Qin to select people. It's better to see than to hear, King Qin's soldiers are really no one, I'm disappointed......"

Xu Qing's words are to separate the assassination and the selection of soldiers, I didn't find the real culprit in the assassination, the matter of recruiting soldiers only went when I heard that you had good soldiers there, and there is no relationship between the two things, cause and effect, husband and wife, father and son......

But Xu Qing didn't expect that his words made the generals present interested, and they all said: "Formation, new formation?" Can this little doll brag about it? ”

"What's more, you can blow the cow to death, be careful that the Yin of Chang'an Mansion knows, and arrest you for the crime of slaughtering the cattle privately......"

"Hahaha, is he bragging, didn't you hear him say that his formation can fight against the cavalry?"

Li Shimin was also thundered by Xu Qing's words, if you want to say that Xu Qing got a pair and wrote a "disciple rule" is a matter of founding a sect, then Xu Qing's creation of a new formation is also comparable to today's military leaders. There are countless people who are proficient in the art of war, but there are really no who can create a new art of war. So he smiled and said to Xu Qing: "Xu Qing, don't be joking, although you have experienced several battles, in front of these battlefield generals, don't brag about this." ”

Xu Qing snorted and said, "Am I the kind of person who makes an axe? If I say I can fight the cavalry, then I can fight the cavalry. The 10,000 men in my hands can at least fight the same number of cavalry. Without the help of any walls or ramparts, if there is still a terrain advantage, I can fight twice as many cavalry as me. More is possible, but that would be a lot of casualties. said that with one enemy and ten, then I Xu Qing can be regarded as bragging. ”

The generals looked at each other, could it be that Xu Qing had created a formation that could fight against the cavalry? At this time, Qin Shubao came out and said, "Lord Xu, Qiong asked offensively, can you tell me about this formation?" ”

Xu Qing waved his hand: "General Qin, it's not that Xu Qing is stingy, it's just that this formation is a military machine, and I, Xu Qing, can't talk nonsense." In addition, although this formation is powerful, there are too many variables on the battlefield, if this formation is only theoretical, won't I harm the soldiers? Please forgive Brother Qin......"

"Alas!" Qin Shubao sighed and said, "Lord Xu is reasonable, it's me Qin Qiong Meng Lang." ”

Xu Qing raised a glass and said, "General Qin, junior brother toasts you, please!" ”

At this time, Li Shimin suddenly said: "Actually, when Xu Qing said this, this king originally didn't believe it. But looking at Xu Qing's recent record, this king has to believe it. Killing the Pearl Khan and fighting the first warrior of the grassland, Hanhai Khan, such feats cannot be accomplished by the courage of one person. According to this king, Lord Xu must be a wise and courageous person. ”

"Come, for Lord Xu's merits, float a lot!"

Immediately afterwards, Xu Qing didn't know why, whether Li Shimin secretly gave a secret signal to other generals, and people kept toasting Xu Qing. Come, what is a toast to Lord Xu's health, a toast to Lord Xu's early birth of a second child, an early birth of a third child, an early birth of a fourth child, and an early marriage to the sixth aunt's wife. But Xu Qing is boiling water here, in order not to be easily found out, he put a little bit of immortal brew, but it is just a little fragrant wine.

After a round of toasting, Xu Qing's face was not red, his head was not dizzy, and he was more sober than anyone else. At this time, the generals were shocked, this kid was hidden deeply, it turned out that he had such a lot of alcohol. This kid's city is so deep, what else do we not know? No, I have to get him drunk today, otherwise I won't ruin it if I say a lot of names!

After five rounds of wine, the generals also felt that it was no longer possible, and if they drank it again, they would really have a moth. Hehe, look at Xu Qing, isn't this also drunk, shaking his head, and he can't sit still.

Hey? Something is wrong, this Xu Qing shook his head, why is King Qin, King Qin can't sit steadily, how can there be three Yu Chi Jingde, hehe, today Yu Chi Jingde is so white! Ahem, what's going on, the house is shaking too......

Li Shimin sighed softly, he said in his heart that this Xu Qing is really cunning, first revealing flaws and stupidity, making everyone relax their vigilance, and then using a new formation to stimulate their competitiveness, and now they have fallen into Xu Qing's trap and can't climb out.

Xu Qing is very innocent.
