Chapter 20 Exchange
"Dad, he, he's not a good person!"
Poor Liu Ji didn't be able to see people's faces clearly, he heard an accusation, the scene was very embarrassing for a while, Zhang Wuxuan's huge body blocked in front, his face was a little overwhelmed, his wooden temperament couldn't cope with such a complicated situation.
Fortunately, there is still Xu Guangjing, he smiled and made a round: "We have been standing here for a long time, is it time to eat some wine and food, Lao Xu heard that the lord was invited, but the rice in his stomach did not enter." ”
"Yes, yes, yes." The bad guy Liu Ji immediately hit the snake and replied: "I neglected the two, it's all mine, please." ”
The banquet is set up in the lobby of the courtyard, the furnishings inside are very delicate and small, at first glance it is owned by the woman, but at this time the inner house is empty, who will care about those, when they enter, the big table has been filled with all kinds of food, a few people sit down in the host, and another maid stands aside, specially waiting.
In fact, this kind of gathering and drinking is not the mainstream of the Tang Dynasty, and it will only prevail in this mixed land of Anxi, as for Guannai, the popular meal system that has been practiced for thousands of years.
Of course, Liu Ji prefers this way of approaching the later generations, without having to use a kneeling posture to torture his thighs, at the moment under their buttocks, there are the kind of high-legged stools, which are more modern than the popular Hu beds.
As a gathering place of the East and the West, the most indispensable thing in the Western Regions is fine wine, bright red wine, purple Sanle pulp, and the sweetness of melons and fruits when drunk makes people unconsciously ignore the role of alcohol.
Several people are good drinkers, this kind of low-alcohol wine that is almost a drink, naturally it is not a problem, a few pots of belly, there are more words, all the talk is about conquest and killing, Liu Ji understands their thoughts, they want to save some impression points for themselves, so they all pick those heroic deeds to say.
"I won't hide it from you, my old Xu is also a person who has been rolling under the tip of a knife for 20 years, what kind of battle has not been seen, the city of Nepal, it doesn't look very high, but the guards above stand densely, and the arrows shoot like water, that kind of city, you say, ten days and half a month's effort, you can't take it, right?"
Liu Ji picked up the cup and touched it with Zhang Wuprice, the two knew the inside story, how could they have the kung fu to listen to him brag, but those who were waiting for the subordinates, one by one, their eyes were straight, and even the wine and food were a few beats slower, and they all gathered in the hall, for fear of missing out.
It was Zhilan and Huixiang who were standing behind him, and with the action of drinking, Liu Ji peeked at the woman behind Zhang Wuxuan, and seemed to be listening carefully, there was not much bitterness and hatred on her face, but her facial features were hidden in the shadows and could not be seen.
"But our lord only allowed our whole army to sleep for a few hours, ran for two days and two nights, slept for only a few hours, and was about to attack the city, where did we start, but who are we? When the slashers heard the sound of the drums, even the swords rushed forward, and after three hours all the men were dressed and stood in the camp. ”
"How do you remember that it was five hours?" Zhang Wuyuan muttered on the side.
"That's because you remember badly, when you woke up, it didn't get dark, how could it be as long as five hours."
Xu Guangjing unceremoniously suppressed his defense, how could Zhang Wuxuan fight for this with him, and silently let him continue.
"There are only a hundred of us in total, and the rest of the mountain people are ordinary people, it's okay to shout and cheer, if you really want to see the battle, you have to run back in fear, no one thinks we can really succeed, but guess what."
He sold a pass, and slowly took some food and threw it into his mouth, and drank a sip, which attracted a lot of people to urge, and the two maidservants simply helped him pour wine and vegetables, so comfortable.
"Tell me, what's wrong?"
Enjoying the pleasure of being served, after a long while, Xu Guangjing slowly opened his mouth.
"Our lord, taking advantage of the fact that the defenders in the city were attracted by the mountain people, unexpectedly went around to the other side, without even using a ladder, just set it up hand in hand, only to hear a 'whoosh', he rushed to the head of the city, not to mention the defenders, even our own people were stunned."
Hearing what he said interestingly, Liu Ji almost couldn't help but squirt, but the audience made up the nervous picture by themselves, waiting for the following.
"At that time, he was the only one in the city, and before the Nebora defenders could react, they slashed like a god descending from the heavens, killing the defenders in all directions, and forcibly opened the passage for us, and the rest of the people climbed up one by one, and the Nebrasians saw that the general situation had gone, and had to bow down."
"Wow." The maidservants all showed an exaggerated expression, and the stars twinkled in their eyes.
"What is this, before we had to cross the thousand-year-old snow-capped mountains, the outside dripping into ice, the breath can be condensed, in that kind of situation, walking for a few days and nights, can still survive, is it unimaginable? But we not only survived, but also caught the Tubo people off guard and won the first credit for marching into Dabolu. ”
"You haven't walked before." Zhang Wuwei betrayed him again, Xu Guangjing didn't care, and continued to spit and say.
"It's cold, there are unimaginable dangers in the wild, snow wolves that are taller than war horses, one head weighs hundreds of pounds, we meet hundreds of heads, think about it......"
I have to say that his eloquence is excellent, even the witnesses of the incident, Liu Ji and Zhang Wuxuan, both fell into deep thought, and after a while, Liu Ji suddenly heard a sentence from the other party.
"That kid from the old Wu family, I'm going to adopt him and raise him, I'm afraid I won't be able to go to Beijing with you this time."
"It's okay, you go back first, send those brothers who died in the war home, and bury them well, their funeral, when I return, and then make plans, if Shi Langjun has anything, you take care of it, clear customs or escort or something, it's convenient, he is our person."
Liu Ji whispered to him that if it weren't for Feng Changqing's order, he wouldn't want to run at all, not to mention the delay, as soon as he thought of dealing with those famous traitors in history, his head would be big.
In the Tang Dynasty of Tianbao's eleventh year, there are few upright courtiers, everyone has to stand in line, otherwise it will be the end of being belittled, how can he be in the mood to stir up this kind of troubled water, and it is better to stay in the Western Regions honestly and make a fortune with that kung fu.
It's a pity that Jun's life is hard to disobey.
The two briefly exchanged about the aftermath, after this battle, the dry pit was almost completely replaced, and less than ten people survived, and their small family affairs naturally all fell on Liu Ji's body, this kind of thing is also done for the living, only when people are at ease, they will have no worries, and give their lives to him wholeheartedly.
I don't know when, Xu Guangjing had finished bragging, came over, shook his head that was already a little dizzy, and said slurredly.
"Lao Zhang, you should have a child of your own."
Zhang Wupriceless pushed the old man: "A certain has been there for a long time." ”
"I'm talking about my son, my sister-in-law revealed to a certain Nahun family that if you want to take a concubine, she won't stop it, the forsythia on the left and right is already old, and you are going to get married when you speak, and you can't have no one to serve under your knees."
Zhang Wuxuan silently drank a glass of wine, but Liu Ji on the side listened to it and asked in surprise.
"Lingai's name is Forsythia?"
Both of them nodded, and the woman who had been standing behind him, seeing his gaze, lowered her head and turned around, once again avoiding his gaze.
"I have a proposal." Liu Ji stood up, walked to the woman's side, and pulled the shoulders that were higher than him, revealing a pretty face full of anger.
No wonder he can be caught and snatched by himself, this guy's vision is really good.
Liu Ji stared at her eyes and said solemnly: "I did a bad job before, regardless of your wishes, I'm sorry." ”
Without waiting for her to reply, he continued: "My proposal is that you can choose to leave or stay here, in exchange, I will pay you a child, can you?" ”
Zhang Lianqiao looked at this demon who had robbed him to enter the mansion at the beginning, and he didn't shake off his hand for the first time.
