3. Please stop drinking and talking

Shoujiangyi's long surname is Fan Mingyong, and his background is the big surname Fan in Anyi, Hedong, although he is not a descendant of the clan, but Fan Yong is now from a county official, trying to guard Jiangyi County, and he can be regarded as a local governor, plus he has Fan's background, and he is an ordinary military official in Hedong County, he really doesn't take it to heart.

But Yan Xing is different, he is the general of the Xiliang Army.

At present, there are a large number of Xiliang soldiers stationed in Anyi, Hedong, although the surnames of Hedong have their own thoughts, but in the face of these Xiliang soldiers who hold the blade in their hands and are notorious, they still temporarily hide other thoughts, and Zhonglang will continue to be false and wrong.

Even with it, Fan Yong was about to pinch his nose and be respectful to Yan Xing, the captain of the, but in his heart he was really distressed about the goods he was about to give.

The flesh hurts to the flesh, Yan Xing got off the horse, and Fan Yong, the head of Shoujiangyi, immediately brought a group of county temple officials and the city's haoyou over, and after greeting each other, they exchanged greetings and praise.

One praised "the captain is a dignified appearance, but he is a mighty general", and the other praised "the captain marched day after day, his face was tireless, and he was really strong." As for the others, there are also all kinds of praise words such as "governing the army well", "serving the public and denying oneself", and "relieving the people from hanging upside down".

As soon as the county temple officials and the big names in the city came into contact, they held Yan Xing in the center like the stars and the moon, and hugged him and walked towards the county temple.

When he entered the gate of the county temple, Fan Yong saw that two more scribes came behind Yan Xing, and said a few words to Yan Xing, and the guards who were carrying a tiger and a bear's waist also wanted to go in with Yan Xing, he was stunned for a moment, and was about to send the master book and Gong Cao to properly settle them and serve them wine, meat and food, but Yan Xing seemed to see Fan Yong's intentions, and said with a smile:

"County Jun, these armor soldiers are my confidants and personal guards, they must not leave their side for a moment, the army has its own laws, you don't need to worry about it, please!"

Listening to Yan Xing's words, Fan Yong smiled awkwardly, and hurriedly complimented:

"Haha, the captain has a good soldier, please!"

Entering the hall, everyone sat separately, Fan Yong originally wanted Yan Xing to be on the top, but Yan Xing insisted on the order of the host and guest and refused to sit down.

In desperation, Fan Yong could only let Yan Xing sit at the distinguished seat of the guest seat, and then returned to the upper seat and sat down, and the other county officials and surnames also took their seats one by one.

Once everyone was seated, the party began tonight. As soon as the county magistrate of Jiangyi greeted, the maids waiting outside the hall began to enter the hall with the food table in their hands and serve wine and food to the distinguished guests in the seat.

These maids all have delicate faces, wearing light gauze skirts, wearing sachets and jade rings around their waists, coming and going in the hall like flowing water, listening to the footsteps brought by small broken steps, smelling the faint fragrance of the girl in the hall, looking at the hazy and visible white skin under the layer of tulle, everyone in the seat has a pleasant face, and one or two children with big surnames are even more red, and their eyes are fluctuating with the walking maids.

When the meals were all ready, the maid serving wine on the side also used a wine spoon to scoop the wine in the wine urn into the feather in front of Yan Xing's case, and raised her hand to hold it in front of Yan Xing, and persuaded Yan Xing to drink a little shyly.

Fan Yong, who was at the top, looked at the scene of the beauty persuading him to drink, smiled coldly in his heart, and immediately put a smile on his face, and persuaded Yan Xing to drink with other county officials and surnames.

Yan Xing looked at the clear wine in the maid's hand, smiled, stretched out his hand to take the feather, and saluted Fan Yong and other county officials and surnames in return, and drank it all, and then revealed the bottom of the feather cup, indicating that it had been drunk.

"There are a lot of school captains!"

The sound of praise was endless, and then Fan Yong and other county officials and surnames began to toast Yan Xing again, Yan Xing did not refuse, and only after three rounds of wine did Yan Xing put down his feathers, signaled the maid who served the wine to stop scooping the wine, and began to say:

"In Xia Bucai, appointed as the captain of Dangkou, was ordered to ask for thieves and people, when I came, I heard that the soldiers in the barracks outside the city said that the white wave thieves in Linfen and Xiangling seemed to have abnormal movements, so that all the soldiers and horses outside the city went to Fenshui and Jiuji Mountain to garrison, but I don't know what the enemy situation is.

"This..."

Hearing that Yan Xing had just finished a few glasses of wine, he began to ask about the enemy situation of the white wave thieves in Jiangyi, Fan Yong was slightly embarrassed, he glanced at the county lieutenant, but the county lieutenant smiled bitterly, where did he understand now, so he had to say hesitantly:

"This white wave thief since the beginning of the spring and returned, arrogant, very sharp, coercing the people, attacking the city, Niu Zhonglang will send the soldiers to fight bravely, but the thieves are huge, the soldiers failed to repel the invading white wave thief, but lost a lot of people and horses, and then the cities in the northeast of the river have lost a lot."

"I already know all these things, and I'm asking about the enemy around Jiangyi!"

"This..."

The county lieutenant couldn't understand this, so he could only smooth out the numbers from hearsay, and then open his mouth to say it.

"In my opinion, the thieves are huge, there are 20,000 or 30,000 thieves in Linfen, and there are 10,000 or 20,000 thieves in Xiangling."

Other parents and children with big surnames in the city knew some numbers, and they also regarded them as accompanying numbers and hurriedly reported them.

"I heard that there are more than 100,000 of these thieves, which is more than when they were last year."

"I think there are so many, there are seventy or eighty thousand."

"There are at least 100,000 thieves!"

Listening to these numbers, the more outrageous they became, Fan Yong, who was in the upper position, saw that Yan Xing's face also turned slightly gloomy, he hurriedly smiled and changed the topic, and began to say:

"Tonight is for the captain to pick up the wind and wash the dust, I don't wait to talk about business, only talk about elegance, come, Captain Yan, I will respect you again, this wine is specially prepared for you Qindi Xinfeng wine, this raw fish is a fresh carp just caught from the muddy water, it is the delicious Jiarou of Jiangyi, please also go down and taste it."

Yan Xing looked at Fan Yong, who was full of smiles on his face, and smiled coldly, I have to say that the chief of Jiangyi has done everything he can in order to entertain him, the yokan and pig surimi on the table with copper beans are full of fragrance, the finely chopped fish is white and red, and the deer breast brushed with a layer of honey looks even more tender and delicious, and all kinds of seasonal fruits and vegetables, and rice sauces are also carefully selected and made.

But Yan Xing had already learned some information about Jiangyi from Zheng Duo and Zhou Liang before, and just now through inquiry, he knew that these officials and surnames knew very little about the enemy's situation, and he didn't bother to make peace with these county temple officials who exploited the people and the corpses were vegetarian, so he immediately raised his voice and continued to ask:

"I still want to know how the city defense of Jiangyi is, whether the bows and arrows, wood and stones and other equipment used to defend the city have been repaired, the grain and straw required by the army, and other military supplies have been prepared one by one, and the hearts of the people in the city have been settled, and the militia and young people in Jiangyi have been recruited and trained?"

This matter related to the defense of Jiangyi was told by Yan Xing in public at the banquet that received the wind and washed the dust.

Listening to Yan Xing's loud words, the county officials and surnames in the seat were stunned for a while, their focus had never been on official business, and no one thought that the harmonious atmosphere of toasting each other just now would suddenly become so embarrassing and tricky.

Fortunately, Fan Yong's reaction was quite flexible, he laughed, and said with a smile:

"Jiangyi Defense, you can talk slowly, the captain has come to work hard, I think I can't drink anymore, I actually talked about wine, tonight we only talk about elegance, come and come, don't stop the feathers, where is the song and dance strings?"

As soon as Fan Yong opened his mouth like this, the originally awkward atmosphere in the banquet was alleviated again, and after several officials in the seat exchanged glances with each other, they began to be active again, following other parents and children with other surnames to stagger and toast each other.

Just as everyone passed the cup and changed the lamp, a sound of piano and silk bamboo sounded on both sides of the hall, and a group of dancing girls with moth heads and eyebrows and graceful postures walked into the hall with a crisp symphony of jade pendants.

After they saluted to the people in the seat, they began to dance with the strings and the beat, they were dressed in flowing fairy skirts, wide sleeves and colorful ornaments, some moved the lotus step lightly, swinging their clothes, some swayed their waists, waved their belts, two by two, a pair, each other, and the posture between the pairs was different, the posture was a thousand kinds, and the style was varied.

Seeing so many beautiful dancers dancing in the hall, the people in the audience heard the sound of silk and bamboo, and they were fascinated, and some people began to discuss and praise which dancer's dancing posture and posture were the most moving.

Although Fan Yong was only trying to defend the head of Jiangyi, but in Fengyuan's flattery kung fu, he had already practiced in the Hedong County Mansion, and after watching Yan Xing see the dancing girl dance, he no longer asked about official affairs, he breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help sneering in his heart and said secretly:

"I miss you a reckless man, bloody on the battlefield, just thinking about the war, how have you ever seen the customs and atmosphere of such a rich place in the Central Plains, this look, I am afraid that he is already intoxicated, and his soul is half aroused, I just hope that he will not ask for a few more dancing girls after the banquet, otherwise he will be really easy to hurt the harmony with the big names in the city."

In this county temple, there were not so many beautiful dancers and drummers, some of which were temporarily instructed by Fan Yong and borrowed from other big names in the city, so Fan Yong would really be worried, if Yan Xing would use the strength of wine to come to him to ask for a dancing girl, Fan Yong would really not be able to deal with this matter that was easy to offend the big names in the city.

The dance is dancing, and the cup is non-stop.

Just when the people in the audience were intoxicated by this light song and dance, thinking that Yan Xing, who was suppressed from talking, was also indulging in it, Yan Xing suddenly fell into his feather and shouted:

"Where is Niu Gao?"

"The subordinates are here!"

There was also a loud response outside the hall, Da Niu immediately broke in with a team of guards who were armed with soldiers, and when he saw Yan Xing, whose face changed suddenly, suddenly recruited these fierce armor soldiers outside the hall, and the people in the hall were all shocked into a cold sweat.

The dancing girl was so frightened that her ankles were broken, and the musicians played the wrong strings, and the clothes all over the house changed color, and the frightened big names shook their hands and sprinkled the wine directly on their own colorful robes.

Looking around at the people in the hall with an ugly look, Yan Xing slowly got up at this time, pressed the ring knife in his hand, and said coldly in his mouth:

"The captain of this school was ordered to fight for thieves, along the way, I saw the people in distress, mourning all over the wilderness, all I heard in my ears was the cry of the fleeing Qiantou, I don't mean that I can still hear the voice of Zheng Wei in the county temple today, but unfortunately the captain of this school heard more horns in the battle array, and I can't understand the elegance of the king!"

Speaking of this, Yan Xing snapped and pulled out the ring knife on his waist, followed by the sword pulling of Yan Xing's personal armor warriors and a series of nail leaf shaking.

In just a few words, the cold light of the sword shone in the candlelight, and the hall was suddenly silent, and Fan Yong and the others, who originally wanted to laugh with them, also closed their mouths stupidly after seeing Yan Xing pull out the ring knife.

Yan Xing's deep voice sounded again in the hall, which had become silent for a moment.

"The white bones cover the road, starvation is everywhere, this meat and wine are hard to swallow. Now, please ask the county magistrate to remove this singing and dancing banquet and talk about the important task of begging the thief! ”
