The land of the Hanzhong Plain is fertile, which is conducive to cultivation. After Cao Cao defeated Ma Teng, he led the people to the Hanzhong Plain, which was an important military place in the northwest of Cao Wei.

The Hanzhong County of the Han Kingdom borders the Hanzhong Plain, the Hanzhong Plain of Guanzhong to the north, and the Sichuan and Shu Plains to the north, which was an important transportation hub for the two countries at that time. Coupled with the frequent wars between the two countries, there have always been heavy troops at the junction.

At that time, Liu Bei listened to Fazheng's suggestion and raised the whole country to conquer Hanzhong, Huang Zhong killed Xiahou Yuan in Dingjun Mountain to break Cao's army, and Cao Cao withdrew under the pretext of chicken ribs, and later formed the current Hanzhong County. Then Liu Bei sent Wei Yan to defend Hanzhong, the northern gateway of the Han state.

Since Liu Bei's death, the Han Kingdom began to recuperate, and the tension of the Great War was no longer in the city of Hanzhong, coupled with the fact that it was a transportation hub, and there was an endless stream of vendors, and the inns and bazaars in the city were faintly thriving.

After several days of traveling, Liu Chan finally came to the front of Hanzhong City.

Liu Chan looked at the tall city wall and breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Zhang Yingying, who was glaring at him angrily, patted the horse lightly and said with a smile: "I beat you up on the road, you should be angry, lady, besides, you have to force me." He didn't forget to pretend to be aggrieved.

"You still say!" Looking at Liu Chan's cheap appearance, Zhang Yingying glared and roared.

"Don't say it, don't say it, let's go, let's go into the city. Hey. Liu Chan hurriedly waved his hand and quickly diverted the topic. Walk towards the city.

Although it was now the end of summer, the weather was still a little hot at noon, and there was no war, so the soldiers on duty at the city gate were listlessly leaning against the shady city wall at the entrance of the city gate and lazily watching the people entering the city. I don't bother to go up and check anything.

Liu Chan and Zhang Yingying walked smoothly into Hanzhong City, and there were occasional vendors setting up stalls in front of the houses on both sides, and now they are also taking a break in front of their stalls, and there are many fewer pedestrians on the road, giving people a sense of purity.

Zhang Yingying sat on the horse, looked at the sparse crowd on the street, touched her pretty face and looked at Liu Chan, who had a calm face, and pouted: "Adou, you want to heat this girl, hurry up and find a place to rest and cool off, I'm tanned." ”

Since the last time Liu Chan was "forced to be helpless" to kiss Zhang Yingying, he knew that people were angry, so he had to follow Zhang Yingying and smile bitterly: "Okay, let's find an inn to eat something to rest before going to Taishou Mansion." ”

Junlai Restaurant is a time-honored brand in Hanzhong City, and it is rumored that the ancestor of the boss is specially made wine for the royal family, and the rumors are rumors, but as long as the people who have drunk the wine of Junlai Restaurant are full of praise, so that in the long run, it has gradually made a name for itself in Hanzhong City.

Although it is noon, it is time to eat. The business of the hotel is naturally very hot, with the vendors who come and go, the sons and daughters of the local rich families, and the spacious restaurant is full of people, talking and laughing one after another. Five or six small shops were interspersed with running in front of each banquet, and they were very busy.

"Yo, guest officer, please come in quickly, this is noon, drink wine to quench your thirst."

The shopkeeper looked at the three people walking in front of the door, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him with a smile.

The three of them, two men and one woman, although the man led by him was dusty, his eyes were shining from time to time, and he calmly looked at everything in the hotel and nodded slightly. The fat-faced man behind him followed closely behind the man at the head, looking like a servant, and the woman next to the man at the head was dressed in plain clothes, ignoring Xiao Er's greetings, and walked inside with her head held high like a proud peacock. These three people are the three Liu Chan who have just heard about it.

Liu Chan smiled and nodded at Xiao Er, and under Xiao Er's greeting, he found a quiet place to sit down. Liu Chan, who had just sat down, was not in a hurry to ask for wine, and looked at Xiao Er who was wiping the table next to him and said with a smile: "Little Second Brother, how do you go to the County Shou Mansion?" ”

Xiao Er, who was cleaning up the case, glanced at Liu Chan suspiciously, then got up and replied with a smile: "Just walk along this street to the end." The yard is big and easy to find. Liu Chan nodded, and then Zhang Yingying asked for a drink.

At that time, the alcohol content was not too high, and it was about the same as the alcohol content of beer today. Liu Chan also drank the wine at this time, but the wine in this store also had a fruity taste, sweet and sour, and Liu Chan couldn't help but drink a few more glasses.

Even Zhang Yingying fanned the wind with her hand, seeing that Liu Chan didn't look at herself, she couldn't help but carefully add another glass to the wine glass. Only Huang Hao was still waiting by the two of them after Liu Chan's persuasion was fruitless many times.

Looking at Huang Hao's busy appearance, Liu Chan smiled bitterly and shook his head. As soon as I picked up my glass, the bustling hotel suddenly fell silent. This silence was too sudden, and Liu Chan's heart trembled. Seeing that everyone was looking at the door of the hotel with a little worry.

At this time, a group of fierce and vicious people walked at the door of the hotel, and in front of him stood a young man with an arrogant face, about twenty years old, but the arrogant momentum set off the originally handsome face a little vicious. The boy stood in the doorway and swept each guest's face over it, as if looking for someone. Seven or eight people behind him also glanced at each guest with the same arrogance.

"Hey, isn't this the third young master. The third young master, please come in, please come in. ”

The shopkeeper who was settling accounts saw the young man, hurriedly put down the abacus in his hand, and responded with a smile on his face.

The young man glanced at the shopkeeper with a smile on his face, and said disdainfully: "Old man Zhang, you don't come with me for this." Tell me quickly, Wang Dafu is not here with you. Hand it over to me, or hum. After the young man finished speaking, he continued to sneer and scan the guests present, and the guests all lowered their heads in unison.

The shopkeeper's body trembled, and he waved his hand helplessly and said: "Third Young Master, you have wronged Lao Zhang, that Wang Dafu is the person you are looking for, how dare Lao Zhang hide it." ”

"Humph! Forgive you for not having the guts, let's go, look elsewhere. Damn, dare to bully my brother. The young man saw that there was indeed no person named Wang Dafu, so he snorted coldly and walked out arrogantly with everyone.

After watching the young man take people away, the shopkeeper wiped the sweat on his head, relieved his breath and saluted the guests and smiled: "Okay, it's okay, it's okay, everyone eat slowly." I will give everyone a free cup to suppress the shock. ”

The panicked guests breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the shopkeeper say this, and when they heard that they could drink a free drink, the lively laughter filled the entire hotel. It was as if this little episode slowly flowed into the stomach with the glass of wine that was delivered for free.

Liu Chan calmly picked up the glass of wine that Xiao Er had just given him for free, and asked the guest on the wine table next to him suspiciously, "Brother, who was that person just now?" ”

Drinking next to him was a chubby middle-aged man, looking at Liu Chan with a slightly red face, and then looked left and right and whispered, "Brother is not a local." ”

Liu Chan smiled: "I really just came here. ”

"That man is a notoriously scoundrel in our city. The brother has just arrived, and he will have to hide when he meets him in the future. ”

"Then no one cares?"

The fat-faced man took a sip of wine, his eyes whitened, and Liu Chan whispered, "Tube? Who cares. You don't see a shopkeeper who has to say good things. The third young master is the son of the Pu family in Hanzhong City. ”

"The Pu family?" Liu Chan took a sip of wine calmly, thoughtful.

The fat-faced man was also a chatter, and then whispered: "No one knows Pu Yuan, a famous craftsman in Hanzhong, even our county guard Lord Wei Yan has to give face to the old man." The fat-faced man sighed when he said this, then took a sip of wine and said, "Old man Puyuan is a good person, I didn't say it." Just this kid, hi. Don't say it, don't say it. Come, little brother, drink and drink. ”

The fat-faced man said and raised his wine glass to Liu Chan with a flushed face, and Liu Chan hurriedly raised his wine glass. Watching Liu Chan drink a cup before turning around with satisfaction and drinking with the people at the same table.

Liu Chan slowly put down the wine glass and squinted thoughtfully.

"Bang!"

It was as if the sound of something slamming heavily on the table sounded in Liu Chan's ears.

Liu Chan subconsciously looked to the side. I saw Zhang Yingying shake the wine jar that had been drunk and smirked at Liu Chan: "Adou, this wine is so delicious, I still want it." As he spoke, he couldn't help but lick the mouth of the wine jar.

Liu Chan's head was big for a while, it turned out that Liu Chan had been paying attention to the arrogant teenager just now, but he didn't expect Zhang Yingying to secretly drink all the wine in a jar while he was not paying attention, although the degree of wine is not high, but after all, it is also wine, I really don't know who this girl's drinking skills learned from.

Looking at Zhang Yingying's drunken face, Liu Chan shook his head helplessly, and told Huang Hao to go to the checkout, while he carried the drunk and dizzy Zhang Yingying helplessly walked out of the door.
