The housekeeper of the General's Mansion arranged for the generals who followed Tang Ning to sit at the table, and then a maid began to serve the food.

Yao Rong smiled and said: "It's really time for General Tang to come, if it's ten or eight days late, even if we have to pick you up and wash the dust, we won't be able to drink!" ”

Tang Ning was a little surprised when he heard this, and Lord Wang explained with a smile: "Every year in autumn, the barbarians will come to grab grain, and in order to prevent drinking and making mistakes, General Yao will order a ban on alcohol. ”

Tang Ning was really shocked when he heard this, the northwest is bitter cold, and there are no people who have been here for a long time who are not good at drinking!

A woman can live without, but wine can't be without. However, Yao Rong was able to order a ban on alcohol, which shows the high prestige of the border army.

Yao Rong laughed and said: "It's just forbidden for a month, and now there is no movement from the barbarians, we can get drunk and rest!" ”

The maids began to serve the food, which opened Tang Ning's eyes, because the utensils used to serve the dishes were different from those in the capital.

Big, the dishes are all served on large plates, and even with pots, one pot at a time. Drinking wine is not a small bowl, but a large bowl.

Yao Rong said with a smile: "The people in the border town are rough and arrogant, and after staying here for a long time, they are used to eating meat in large pieces and drinking wine in large bowls, which is not as delicate as the capital, but it also has a unique flavor, and General Tang tried to meet his appetite." ”

Tang Ning smiled: "It smells really fragrant, so it tastes fragrant in a big plate and a big pot." When I was a child, I lived by hunting in a small town, and I ate in such big pots. ”

"On the march along the way, the birds are about to fade out of their mouths, so it is enjoyable to eat meat and drink a lot."

Yao Rong laughed and said, "Okay, I don't have anything else here, the meat tube is full, and the wine tube is enough!" ”

The wine and food came up, Yao Rong got up and said with a smile: "General Tang and the brothers from the Beijing camp have come from afar, let's salute them together." Done! ”

The generals in the courtyard stood up and shouted, "It's done! ”

This big bowl went in like this, and Tang Ning and the others were not exempt from vulgarity, and they couldn't be thrown here if they were embarrassed.

In fact, Tang Ning was really a little speechless in his heart, because it seemed to make him feel like a thief joining the gang.

Yao Rong and Chang San looked at it a lot, they were already military generals, one was rough-looking, the other was a tiger's back, and it was normal for them to drink down.

What Tang Ning didn't expect was that even the thin and thin Lord Wang was massive, and when the wine was dry, a big bowl of goo-tudu went in, and there was no civilian-like crepe at all.

Lord Wang explained with a smile: "This bitter cold in the northwest, even if people who don't drink alcohol stay here for a long time, it will become massive. ”

"It's just that it's hard to understand the word bitter cold after all, if you spend a winter here, you will understand that this winter is really difficult without wine."

Tang Ning sighed: "The soldiers in the border town are indeed not easy, they are very respectable, I salute everyone!" ”

After drinking, Tang Ning said with a straight face: "General, the last general will come to the border town with a large army to fight, after the war starts, please send the general." ”

Yao Rong said with a smile: "I have my own arrangement for this, and today is just to catch the wind, so I won't talk about this for the time being." It is not too late for General Tang to familiarize himself with the border towns first. ”

Although there are a large number of soldiers in the border army, Tang Ning is not afraid. Even if Yao Rong said that he would not return home if he was not drunk tonight, no general was really drunk.

Although some of the generals drank vainly, most of the generals still looked clear.

People like Yao Rong, Chang San and others not only have red faces, but their eyes are even brighter.

At the end of the dinner, Yao Rong sent Tang Ning, who was a little vain, and his subordinates back to the camp, and Tang Ning's eyes were a little drunk and hazy along the way.

Sent to the camp, Yao Rong instructed Tang Ning's relatives to take good care of him and left.

After Yao Rong left, Tang Ning immediately stood firm, the hazy drunkenness on his face disappeared, and his eyes were still clear and bright.

Since General Yao said that he would not be drunk tonight, if Tang Ning, as the protagonist of the reception, did not show a little drunkenness, how could this banquet end well?

So when Tang Ning drank six or seven points of wine, he pretended to be eight or nine points of wine, and the banquet was dispersed.

The advantage of pretending to be drunk is that you won't lose your temper like being really drunk, you won't say things you shouldn't say, and you won't do things you shouldn't do.

Out of the house, Downing never really got drunk.

The generals are also measured people, no one is drunk, but they were worried about Lord Toshi, who has been supported by Chang San.

Now that he saw Chang San leaving, Lord Tsuji immediately came to his senses, and understood that Lord Tsuji was pretending to be drunk, and immediately put his mind at ease.

There are no outsiders here, Tang Ning looked around at the generals and said with a smile: "It seems that the soldiers of this army don't value us, and some of them look down on our brothers in the Beijing camp." ”

Sun Hu said with a smile: "It's not a day or two, the soldiers of the border army are brave and good at fighting, and they have been fighting hard in the bitter cold border town, and they really look down on the comfortable Beijing camp and local guards." ”

"However, since the emperor ascended the throne and began to fight in turns, from time to time the Beijing camp guard was sent to the border town, this relationship has begun to ease."

Dong Chengping said with a smile: "That's true, now it's been reconciled, and we knew this in our hearts before we came." ”

Tang Ning smiled and nodded: "It's good that you can be mentally prepared, no one will say anything in front of General Huaiyuan at the banquet today." ”

"We are going to stay in the border town for a long time, and it is inevitable that there will be some rumors, so put up with it for the time being, and don't make any trouble."

"Especially the soldiers below, you have to restrain yourself. The more so, the more we should hold our breath to prove ourselves. If you want others to look down on you, it's useless to rely on what you say, you can only rely on your achievements! ”

Sun Hu nodded and said, "Don't worry, my lord, it's not the first time we've come to the border town, and we all know it in our hearts." ”

Tang Ning nodded and said, "Okay, it's not early, everyone can rest their minds and rest!" ”

After Chang San left the camp of Tangning's army, he did not go directly back to his mansion, but returned to the general's mansion.

The generals of the General's Mansion have all dispersed, Lord Wang and the civil officials of the border town have also dispersed, and only Yao Rong is still in the courtyard with cups and plates.

Seeing Chang San walk in, Yao Rong asked, "Did you send it back?" ”

Chang San nodded and said, "I sent it back, in fact, he wasn't drunk, he just pretended to be drunk, which can be regarded as a little clever." ”

Yao Rong frowned slightly and said, "A little clever? You have such a little cleverness at his age? ”

Chang San's breath stagnated slightly when he heard this, he was just a young recruit at this age.

Yao Rong glanced at him and asked, "You were with him the whole time today, what kind of person do you think he is?" Tell us how you feel. ”

Chang San was stunned when he heard this, and then began to think carefully.
