The monthly pass of the brethren is powerful, thank you for the desert, let's work harder!

-----------------------------------------------------

Chu Huan smiled and picked up the wine glass, and said: "General Dongfang has an amazing amount of wine, it doesn't hurt to drink a few glasses, but it's only a few glasses, and the amount of wine in this governor is limited, so he really can't accompany General Dongfang to drink." ”

"My lord is humble." Dongfang Xin came closer and said with a smile: "I offended the Governor a few days ago, so Don't take it to heart. ”

"Offended?" Chu Huan deliberately asked, "What happened?" ”

Dongfang said: "It's that batch of supplies......!" ”

Before Dongfang Xin finished speaking, Chu Huan had already waved his hand with a smile and said, "If General Dongfang doesn't mention it, this governor has already forgotten." General Dongfang, that's all trivial, you and I are both running errands for the imperial court, maybe there is some friction in official affairs, but there is no grievance between the four people, we have a clear distinction between public and private, if there is anything wrong with being the governor of Japan, you General Dongfang should not be surprised. ”

"Where, where." Dongfang Xin said with a smile: "Lord Governor, from the bottom of my heart, there are not many people who Dongfang Xin admires, but now he admires the Governor very much, he is not chaotic in the face of danger, he is a good man, I respect people like you." ”

"General Dongfang has won the award." Chu Huan waved his hand and smiled: "It's all in the past, don't mention it, come, the general is sitting here, you and I are good at drinking." ”

After speaking, Chu Huan pointed to his left head, where there was a case, and according to his status, it did belong to Dongfang Xin's position.

Dongfang Xin nodded and smiled, and sat on Chu Huan's left.

Twenty or thirty guests were also arranged on the third floor, gathered together, many people were chatting, the voice was slightly noisy, Chu Huan and Dongfang Xin were talking in a low voice over there, many people didn't hear what was said, just saw the two of them smiling, it seemed that they were talking very happily, everyone was a little puzzled in their hearts, secretly thinking that Chu Huan and Dongfang Xin were like fire and water, just a few days ago, Chu Huan led people to recapture a large number of materials from the Kunzi camp, and greatly damaged Dongfang Xin's face, why did these two people seem to be very close today.

Some people who know Dongfang Xin are also secretly wondering in their hearts, you need to know that this Dongfang Xin is self-serving, arrogant and arrogant, and he is a character with eyes above the top, since he and Chu Huan are like fire and water, but today he can talk with a smile, which is really against his nature.

The guests on the third floor are mainly elderly people, in addition to the elderly gentry, there are also many elderly officials, today is the birthday of Mrs. Dong, and the chairmanship is arranged on the third floor, so Dong Shizhen tries his best to arrange the elderly gentry and officials on the third floor.

There was a sound of footsteps at the staircase, and before anyone arrived, Dong Shizhen's voice had already come: "Thank you, thank you for your care today, I am really grateful to come to my father's birthday banquet." ”

Dong Shizhen smiled, a pair of small eyes squinted, and returned the salute to the left and right, and when he came to Chu Huan, he had already bowed and said: "Lord Governor, you are here, my father is really happy to hear it." ”

"Where is the old lady now?" Chu Huan smiled and said, "I'm going to congratulate the old lady on his birthday." ”

"Soon to be there." Dong Shizhen's face was filled with a festive smile, "My father was cleaning up at home before, and now he is on his way." A little ashamed, he said: "It's really a shame to let you wait for a long time." ”

Chu Huan laughed and said: "Today is the old lady's seventieth birthday, that is the biggest thing, the old lady is the greatest, everyone has to wait!" ”

Dongfang Xin also smiled and said, "That's right. Xiang Dong Shizhen said: "I thought that Lord Dong was going to hold a birthday banquet in his mansion, but he unexpectedly came here. ”

Dong Shizhen said with a smile: "General Dongfang should know that the steamed fish head in this North Wanglou is a must-have in Shuoquan, and my father's favorite dish is the steamed fish head here." I also thought about inviting everyone to sit in the cold house, but my father rarely went out, and he stayed in the house all day, just taking advantage of this birthday banquet, to come here to breathe, and the steamed fish head was made from here, which was the most authentic. ”

"Not bad, not bad." Dongfang Xin touched his thick beard and said: "Steamed fish head, I also love to eat it." ”

Chu Huan asked: "Southeast seafood and northwest meat, this governor has long admired the mountain beast meat in the northwest, but he doesn't know that the fish head here is also very famous." ”

Dong Shizhen said with a smile: "My lord doesn't know, although the northwest is mountainous, but there are also many rivers, especially the Kanghu Lake in Yuezhou, which produces big-headed fish, the fish body is very small, but the fish head is very large, and it is extremely delicious when cooked." ”

"I see." Chu Huan smiled and said: "That is the case, today with the blessing of the old lady, I will also taste this steamed fish head." ”

"This steamed fish head is very complicated." Dong Shizhen said with a smile: "In the entire northwest, the only one who can make big-headed fish is extremely delicious, and there is only this chef in Beiwanglou." ”

"Oh?" Chu Huanqi said: "So powerful? ”

"Later, the lower official will call the chef over and explain this dish to the adults in detail." Dong Shizhen smiled and said: "After listening to his explanation, adults know how complicated this dish is to cook." ”

Chu Huan nodded and said, "That's very good." ”

At this moment, I heard a voice say: "The old lady has arrived!" ”

Everyone on the third floor suddenly got up, only to see a maid supporting an old man appeared, the old man had white hair and sideburns, was over the age of old, wearing a brand-new longevity robe, his left hand was supported by the maid, and his right hand was holding a cane, Dong Shizhen hurriedly stepped forward, holding the right hand of the old lady Dong, and everyone bowed to the old lady Dong, the old lady looked a little old and dizzy, and there were many people, he just kept nodding, and sat on the main seat with the support of Dong Shizhen.

Dong Shizhen helped the old lady sit down, and everyone was congratulating again, Dong Shizhen walked to the staircase, beckoned the guy to come closer, and ordered to start serving.

Old lady Dong made a birthday, Dong Shizhen feasted guests, this dish is naturally excellent, but in a moment, good wine and good dishes were all sent, Dong Shizhen sat on the right side of Chu Huan at this time, and said with a smile: "My lord, the last dish to come up is steamed fish head, and the lower official has arranged it, let the chef here personally serve it for the adult!" ”

Chu Huan smiled: "You're polite." He picked up his glass and said: "Everyone, today is the old lady's 70th birthday, everyone gets together, it's really rare, come, this governor mentions this glass of wine, everyone wants the old lady to toast a glass, and I wish the old lady a blessing like the East China Sea and longevity than Nanshan!" ”

The guests all rose with their glasses and saluted the old lady.

Outside the main gate of the Beiwanglou, Hao Tong, the captain of the Pingxi General's Mansion, has a saber on his waist, his expression is cold, his body is like a javelin, standing outside the gate of the Beiwanglou, on the left and right, are the elite guards of the Pingxi General's Mansion, all in armor, with a sword on his waist.

Hao Tong's hand did not leave the handle of his knife from beginning to end, his subordinates were not surprised, everyone knew that Hao Tong was Dongfang Xin's henchman, this person seemed to always maintain the highest vigilance, it was difficult to see when he was a little relaxed, and everyone also knew that Hao Tong's knife was fast, once his knife was pulled out, it was often the time to see blood.

"Are you Hao Tong?" Hao Tong was on full alert, and suddenly a voice came from behind him, Hao Tong didn't look back, but a hand was already on his shoulder.

Hao Tong's hand holding the knife moved slightly, turned his head slightly, and there was already one more person beside him, who was also in armor, not wearing a helmet, very young, and with a smile on his face.

"I'm Hao Tong." Hao Tong nodded.

"Do you know who I am?" The man asked with a smile, and as he spoke, a smell of wine gushed out, and his face was flushed, and anyone who saw it knew that this person must have drunk a lot of wine.

Hao Tong nodded, "You are Xuanyuan Shengcai!" ”

The man laughed and said, "You really know me." ”

"The Xuanyuan family is the first martial arts family in the empire, General Xuanyuan once single-handedly killed the right guard Wuyong general Chi Gongdu, and the world knows about it." Hao Tong said calmly.

"I didn't kill the general of the Right Guard, but a thief." Xuanyuan Shengcai sighed: "When I came to the northwest, I heard your name, you are the captain of the guard next to General Dongfang, and they all say that you have a good ability, so I want to know you." ”

"We've got acquainted." Hao Tong's body didn't move, "General Xuanyuan is a distinguished guest today, please continue to have a banquet!" ”

Today's old lady Dong is on his birthday, although Chu Huan came to the banquet, Xuanyuan Shengcai was also invited, Xuanyuan Shengcai's official position may not be very high, but no one dares to despise such a person, he is a member of the first martial arts family in the empire, and the cousin of Xuanyuan Shao, the first god bow in the world, such a character, no matter where he appears, will be impressive.

Xuanyuan Sheng was arranged on the first floor, at this time he had already drunk a lot of wine, and he seemed to be drunk, so he took Hao Tong's hand holding the knife and said with a smile: "Come, you can have a few drinks with me." ”

Hao Tong shook his head and said: "Forgive me for not drinking alcohol today, I am on official business, General Xuanyuan, please forgive me!" ”

Xuanyuan Shengcai frowned and asked, "Are you rejecting me?" ”

Hao Tong stared into Xuanyuan Shengcai's eyes and said calmly: "Yes!" ”

Xuanyuan Shengcai sighed and said, "Do you know that I have invited someone to drink, and so far, I have never been refused, and you are the first person to refuse to drink with me." ”

Hao Tong said calmly: "I am on official business, please forgive me!" ”

"What if I have to drink with me?" Xuanyuan Sheng frowned, "Could it be that you look down on me?" ”

"The general is a member of the first martial arts family, and it is a great honor for me to know the general." Hao Daodao: "But today I can only refuse the general's kindness, and I will make amends to the general another day!" ”

Xuanyuan Shengcai shook his head and said word by word: "I, Xuanyuan Shengcai, invite people to drink, never accept refusal, and today, I can't make an exception with you." ”

The corners of Hao Tong's eyes moved slightly, and at this moment, there was already a humane behind Xuanyuan Shengcai: "General Xuanyuan invited you to drink, it is to give you face, if you don't drink, you will not give us face." "That person is Xuanyuan Shengcai's subordinate, this time Chu Huan went to the banquet, and Xuanyuan Shengcai also brought several guards to escort him, all of whom went to the banquet on the first floor.
