Chuzhou is one of the most important towns in the north of the Tang Dynasty, Liu Xin naturally looked at it carefully, and actively collected intelligence from all aspects, according to him, Chuzhou is indeed impregnable, and if he wants to take Chuzhou, he does need to spend more thought, so he looked very carefully.
Liu Xin felt that he could go to be a spy, he slowly looked around, and Zhao Hongyin, Zhao Kuangyin, father and son around him also looked at Chuzhou City, and they also had their own thoughts in their hearts. But Zhao Kuangyi had a divine expression, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Liu Yanzhen had already made preparations, and set up a banquet in the Thorn Shi Mansion, roasting whole sheep, broken golden rice, Huaihe carp, and seafood sent from Haizhou.
Liu Yanzhen smiled and introduced: "General Yang, this is a famous soft fish in the sea, and it is not easy to catch. You'll want to try it later. ”
Yang Lian nodded, he also felt a little novel, he didn't know that since the Tang Dynasty, there had been a record of squid, so he felt incredible.
Liu Yanzhen was very modest and let Yang Lian and Liu Xin sit at the top. Yang Lian naturally refused, saying that his official position was not high, although he had the title of a messenger, how could he compare with the feudal officials? Liu Yanzhen ate Yang Lian's sycophancy, which was very useful. Liu Xin was also extremely cunning and refused to sit on the top, and in desperation, Liu Yanzhen sat on the top "reluctantly", Yang Lian sat first on the left hand, and Liu Xin was the first on the right.
The rest of Lin Renzhao, Zhao Hongyin and others, as well as the civil and military forces of Hai and Chu Prefectures, sat down according to the size of their official positions. The woman with slender legs dances in a skirt like a butterfly on a summer day, which is particularly attractive.
Liu Xin narrowed his eyes and looked at the dancing girl's towering breasts, a little drooling. The women of the south are really thin skin and tender meat, compared to those women in the north. One is a phoenix, the other is a pheasant, and there is no comparison between the two.
Liu Yanzhen's eyes swept over Liu Xin, and when she saw his intoxicated expression, she couldn't help but smile slightly, but when she saw Yang Lian, she frowned. Yang Lian looked at his nose and his nose, like an old monk sitting still, unconcerned. Liu Yanzhen's eyes flashed with a gleam, thinking to herself, isn't this Yang Lian lustful?
In the dance, more meals were served, Yang Lian ate the food by himself, and the civil and military forces of the rest of the Hai and Chu prefectures all looked at the dancing women in the field, and applauded from time to time.
Liu Yanzhen narrowed her eyes, raised the wine bottle, and said with a smile: "Everyone." Today, Chuzhou ushered in two distinguished guests, and all the generals must already know. To welcome your guests. Everyone, toast with me! ”
Only then did everyone react, and they raised their wine bottles one after another, shouting for a toast.
Yang Lian put down the chopsticks in his hand, raised the wine bottle, and said with a smile: "Thank you Liu Tingshi." He said. Raise the bottle and drink it down.
"Good amount of alcohol!" Liu Yanzhen smiled, also raised the wine bottle, drank the wine in one gulp, and even turned the wine bottle upside down, laughing.
Liu Xin reluctantly withdrew his gaze. He drank all the wine in the bottle, and then stared at the dancing girls in front of him, as if he wanted to swallow them in one gulp.
A banquet is a banquet of wine after three rounds, dishes over five flavors, the time is also at the end of the day, the sky is not early. Liu Yanzhen saw that everyone was full of food and drink, so she dispersed the banquet. He asked two very beautiful maids to accompany Liu Xin to the backyard to rest.
As for Yang Lian, Liu Xin personally accompanied him and slowly walked into the backyard.
"General Yang, this time it is very difficult to negotiate in the Han Kingdom, General Yang should be careful." Liu Yanzhen said.
Yang Lian arched his hand, his face showed a solemn expression, and said: "Datang seems to be prosperous, but in fact it is full of difficulties. Now that the Han Kingdom has been established, in a few years, I am afraid that it will go south to Lianghuai. Liu Tingshi, your burden is not light. Ben would only have liked to have been able to delay the Han kingdom's southward journey as much as possible. ”
Liu Yanzhen also understood that he was a courtier of the Tang Dynasty, and the glory and wealth he obtained were all given by the Tang Dynasty, and his heirs were still in Jinling, so it was impossible for him to surrender to the Han State, so he could only be loyal to the Tang Dynasty. Yang Lian's statement is not wrong, and Liu Yanzhen can only support him as much as possible.
While speaking, the two had already approached Yang Lian's temporary residence.
Liu Yanzhen smiled slightly and said, "General Yang, please!" ”
A maid at the door pushed open the door, Yang Lian was a little unsure of what medicine Liu Yanzhen sold in the gourd, so he walked in, and there were still two women in the door, but they were holding a tray in their hands, covered with a red cloth, and they didn't know what was inside?
Yang Lian was slightly stunned for a moment, Liu Yanzhen also walked in and said with a smile: "As General Yang said, negotiating with the Han State is a big deal. Other places in this assassination history may not be of much help, but there is still a little surplus wealth at home, this little thing, not a tribute, I hope General Yang will accept it with a smile. ”
Yang Lian's eyes froze, he stepped forward and walked a few steps, uncovering the red cloth on one of the plates, and suddenly felt that his eyes were dazzled. Under the light of the candles, the yellow gold cakes were the thickness of an arm, lying quietly on the tray, emitting a dazzling light.
Yang Lian was taken aback, this is just a thing on a plate, at least more than a hundred taels, two trays, no less than two hundred taels. This Liu Yanzhen is really a big deal. Yang Lian's surprised look swept over, and he smiled in an instant: "Liu Tingshi is really worried about the country and the people, which makes Ben General very impressed." ”
"Huh." Liu Yanzhen laughed a few times dryly, and said: "General Yang's words are serious, my little heart is not enough to be compared with General Yang." ”
As she spoke, Liu Yanzhen glanced at the back room intentionally or unintentionally, and withdrew with an ambiguous smile.
Yang Lian didn't think much about it, and ordered Chen Tie to put things away. Gold and silver are a good thing, and they really need it when they leave, Yang Lian is not a defender, so he naturally needs money.
Chen Tie didn't understand that his own commander was not a greedy person, and when he wanted to ask, Yang Lian had already walked into the back room.
As soon as Yang Lian walked into the back room, he was stunned, and on a large bed in the back room, there was a woman sitting in front of her, with a red hijab on her head and a red dress. Dress up to get married. Yang Lian was slightly taken aback, this Liu Yanzhen really made a bloody investment.
The woman's body trembled slightly, thinking that she was afraid? Yang Lian paced slowly and walked over. The woman's body was still trembling, and Yang Lian took a few steps. Suddenly turned around and turned back, which surprised the woman a little, but after a while, Yang Lian's footsteps sounded again, and as the footsteps got closer and closer, the woman couldn't help but clench the dagger in her hand, thinking that if this person dared to be rude and fight for her life, she would also keep her chastity. This man must not be allowed to tarnish his innocence.
However, when the footsteps reached the middle of the room, they stopped, and then a voice sounded, full of magnetism: "This little lady, you are hungry, eat something first." ”
The woman was slightly stunned. A little unstable Yang Lian what does Yang Lian mean, Yang Lian said a few words. Seeing that the woman didn't speak, she said again: "Little lady, you can rest assured, Yang Lian is by no means an unreasonable person." ”
"This person's name is Yang Lian?" The woman thought to herself, but still pursed her lips and did not speak.
Yang Lian put the food on the table and stood up. said: "I put the food on the table, you eat it first." With that, he walked out of the back room. Outside the house, Lin Renzhao and Chen Tie were looking at Yang Lian and smiling very obscenely.
Lin Renzhao said: "Commander Yang." Are you really not tempted by this woman? ”
Yang Lian smiled and said, "Erotic sex, seeing a beautiful woman, how can a man not be tempted?" It's just that Yang Lian also has his own ethics. ”
While speaking, Chen Tie looked at the inner room rather obscenely, only to see the woman in the inner room slowly tearing off the red hijab, glanced left and right, and saw that there was indeed no one else, so he stood up. The woman's figure is quite tall, and although she is wearing a long wedding robe, you can also see the woman's wonderful figure.
Yang Lian couldn't help but be slightly stunned, at this time he had already seen the woman's face clearly, and it was actually as beautiful as Emperor Zhou E. Such a woman, Liu Yanzhen was unmoved, which made Yang Lian feel a little strange.
The woman, apparently hungry, sat down on the side of the desk, grabbed her chopsticks, and ate. Although she was very hungry, it could be seen that when the woman was eating, she still maintained a good demeanor, that is to say, this woman was not from a low background, she should be the best lady of that family, and I don't know where Liu Yanzhen got it from.
The woman ate a little fast, and there was no water to drink, and she choked a little for a while, and she gently hung her chest with her hands, and her brows furrowed.
At this time, Yang Lian gently pushed the door and walked in, putting down a glass of water beside her.
The woman was startled, her phoenix eyes widened and looked at Yang Lian, and when she saw Yang Lian's face, she couldn't help but be taken aback.
"What, scared you?" Yang Lian smiled faintly, pushed the water over, and said, "Eat slowly, don't be in a hurry." ”
The woman picked up the water cup and took a sip slowly, the water was still just right, lukewarm or hot, which warmed her heart. The woman put down the water glass, took a deep breath, felt much better, mustered up her courage, looked at Yang Lian, and said, "Thank you Gongzi for your help." ”
"You're welcome." Yang Lian smiled, pointed to the soft couch, and said, "You will sleep there tonight, and I will protect you outside the door." ”
The woman's eyes widened, although she was reluctant in her heart, she felt extremely strange about Yang Lian's words, and couldn't help but say, "Why?" After saying that, she realized that it was an emotion she shouldn't have, her cheeks were flushed, and she immediately lowered her head.
"Obviously, you are not from Liu's mansion, maybe you were coerced, no matter what, Yang Lian is not a person who fell into the well, if the little lady can trust Yang, I will ask Liu Tingshi for you tomorrow and send you home." What Yang Lian said was very sincere.
The woman's eyes lit up, and soon dimmed again, shook her head, and said, "The concubine doesn't want to go back." ”
"Why?" Yang Lian asked.
The woman pursed her lips and didn't speak for a while, Yang Lian waited quietly, and only after a half ring, did the woman speak: "Because the father of the concubine wants to force me to marry a man I haven't met yet!" ”
Yang Lian let out an "um" and said, "That's why you fled in the middle of the night, and then fell into the hands of Liu Yanzhen?" ”
The woman's eyes widened, with an expression of how do you know?
Yang Lian smiled faintly and said, "Although your father has many wrongs, it will be much better than staying in the Liu Mansion." I think you get the idea. ”
