Coming out of the East Palace, Li Qing'an took Dugu Mingzhu to Atami Residence in Xiling Lane, which is a wine shop located in the deep alley next to Xishi, where Li Heng had secretly met him last time.

Dugu Mingzhu was like a bird, chattering to Li Qingan along the way.

"Brother Li, how did you know that there is a wine shop here?" Mingzhu saw that there was actually a wine shop hidden in the deep alley, and her eyes widened in surprise.

"This is the Hu Ren Wine Shop, I've been here before."

Li Qingan turned over and dismounted with a smile, and smiled at the more than 20 pro-soldiers: "Everyone come to the bar together!" ”

The soldiers all smiled embarrassedly, "Thank you, General!" Everyone dismounted, and two men rushed out of the wine shop to lead their horses, and everyone entered the wine shop, and several orchids greeted them enthusiastically.

"Are the military masters drinking together, or are they in separate rooms?"

"Find us a big room!"

"Yes! Yes! Gentlemen, please come with me. An orchid led them to the second floor, which was divided into five or six large rooms by wooden planks, all named after the small towns around the Broken Leaves, most of which were filled with guests, and the sound of laughter could be faintly heard from inside.

"Gentlemen, please come into this room!"

Orchid pushed open a large empty room, the sign at the door said 'General Peiluo City', the room was covered with mats, brightly lit, and several large pots of charcoal were in full swing, baking the room extraordinarily warm, giving people a warm feeling, it was a good place to drink.

"Everyone sit at will, you can eat and drink with an open stomach tonight!"

Li Qing'an waved his hand, more than a dozen of his personal soldiers and entourage smiled and found a place to sit down, took off their coats, rolled up their sleeves, and the room immediately became lively, and five or six orchids who accompanied the wine came in, most of the personal soldiers could speak Turkic, and everyone greeted them in Turkic, and the orchids were suddenly surprised and delighted, as if they had met old people in a foreign land, and they were extremely enthusiastic.

"Brother Li, you know why you came to Huren's wine shop."

Mingzhu looked at the Anxi soldiers and Hu Ji who were talking harmoniously, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I didn't expect so many people to speak the language of Hu Ren." ”

Her heart flashed, and suddenly she thought of something, so she smiled at Li Qingan Yingying: "Brother Li, do you talk nonsense?" ”

Li Qingan laughed, "Haven't I been talking nonsense all day long?" ”

Mingzhu was angry and anxious, slapped Li Qingan's arm and said, "You know what I mean, and I do it on purpose!" ”

"Miss Mingzhu, my general's Turkic language is very good." Jiang Xiaonian next to him said with a smile.

"Really? Brother Li, when can you teach me. ”

Li Qing'an poured her a glass of wine, filled it for herself, and said with a smile: "What are you doing learning Turkic language?" You don't go to Anthy again. ”

"Who said I wouldn't go to Anxi, my sister always said, when can I go to Anxi to have a look."

Li Qingan smiled and drank a glass of wine and asked, "Is your sister married?" ”

Mingzhu sighed faintly: "Married, I married Pei Hui, the eldest son of Jin Ziguang's doctor Pei Yu last month, he is the flower of Jinke Tanhua, and I am still my sister's bride!" The wedding was very grand, but unfortunately Brother Li didn't come. ”

Li Qing'an: 'Oh! With a sigh, a trace of loss rose in her heart, and the elegant and luxurious figure of Dugu Mingyue appeared in her mind, she finally got married, and married a famous child with outstanding literary talents, maybe this is the destination she dreamed of!

"What, does Brother Li think that my sister is marrying inappropriately?" Mingzhu asked cautiously.

Li Qingan picked up the wine glass and smiled bitterly, and sighed: "I originally turned my heart to the bright moon, but how could the bright moon shine on the ditch." ”

Mingzhu saw that Li Qing'an had a kind of loss that could not be concealed in his smile, and couldn't help but smile and said coquettishly: "Big brother, I lied to you, my sister didn't get married!" ”

I thought that after a year, Li Qingan didn't take his sister to heart, but he didn't expect that he still had a sister in his heart, Mingzhu was relieved, and hurriedly said: "Actually, Pei Feng really likes her sister, the Pei family has come to ask for marriage several times, and my grandfather is also interested in marrying the Pei family, but my father wrote a letter, his attitude is very simple, whether he wants to marry or not, it is up to my sister to decide, my sister only said one sentence, marry someone she doesn't like, she might as well die, grandfather is in a hurry and helpless, so I can't talk about the marriage with the Pei family so far." ”

Li Qing'an then understood, Dugu Mingyue originally wanted to marry the person he liked, this person should be Li Jiao, the king of Guangping, not herself, Dugu Mingyue didn't take herself to heart at all, maybe she forgot who Li Qingan was, she had no fate, but what did she have to worry about?

Thinking of this, Li Qing suddenly became relieved, took a drink from the wine glass, and smiled at the soldiers: "You can ask for whatever food you want." ”

"Thank you, General, I want to come to Jingzhou Sugar Carp again."

"Roast a few more catties of hot sea mutton, and a few more jars of wine."

The army is gossiping, high spirits, Mingzhu does not know Li Qing'an's heart changes, she dreams that Li Qing'an can become her brother-in-law, among so many people who are on a blind date with her sister, she only takes a fancy to Li Qing'an, likes his kind of bright and upright heroic temperament, when she heard that Li Qing'an led 3,000 troops to fight against 80,000 troops in Tibet, she was proud and sad, proud that she did not see the wrong person, and sad that Li Qing'an almost died on the battlefield, she quietly cried for a few nights, and now, her heart is rekindled with hope, She must match a marriage between Li Qingan and her sister.

Her cheeks were bright red, and she picked up her wine glass and said with a smile: "Brother Li, I'll toast you again." ”

Li Qingan touched her glass and said with a smile: "After drinking this glass of wine, I will send you back first." ”

"Brother Li, I'll stay a little longer! It's okay. ”

"No way!" Li Qingan's face sank, "After drinking this glass of wine, you have to go back." ”

Mingzhu thought about it, and then said aggrievedly: "Then you have to talk about it, and I will drink this glass of wine before leaving." ”

"I'm naturally talking, hurry up and drink!"

Mingzhu took a shallow sip on the edge of the glass, and she winked mischievously and smiled, "In that case, I'm going to drink this glass of wine slowly." ”

．．．．．．．．

The wine was drunk heartily, the room was full of laughter and laughter, and several orchids slipped in unconsciously, many soldiers had been to Broken Leaves, talking about the customs of Anxi, talking about the sparkling waves of Atami, talking about the forests and Gobi on both sides of the Broken Leaf River, which aroused the homesickness of many orchids, and they were in tears, leaning on the body of Tang Jun, telling their thoughts about their hometown.

Mingzhu drank this glass of wine for half an hour, only less than half of it, she refused to go home, Li Qingan had no choice, and had to let her, at this time, a middle-aged man walked in outside the door, he glanced at the room and smiled: "Hehe! It's so lively. ”

This person is burly, with a broad forehead, a pair of tiger eyes, he is a Han, but his eyes have the blue of Hu blood, he has a very loud voice, and there is a bold air in his gestures.

When the orchids in the house saw him come in, they all stood up together in fright, and whispered, "The proprietor! ”

"You continue to drink and serve the military master well."

The middle-aged man smiled and waved his hand, walked up to Li Qing'an and arched his hand: "I have heard the prestige of General Li in Anxi for a long time, and the villain is often entered, and he is the proprietor of Atami Residence, and General Li is welcome to come to our store." ”

He smiled at the Tang Jun again: "Everyone drink happily, I will treat you to this meal." ”

Li Qingan hurriedly stood up and saluted back: "I have received the wish of the proprietor Chang, today I invite the brothers to drink, so there is no need to trouble the proprietor Chang." ”

"Hey! The Anxi army of the Battle of Longyou can come to my store to drink, it is an honor for our store, you kill the enemy for the country, although I am a civilian, I also admire it, please General Li give me this opportunity, let me express my admiration for the hero. ”

The proprietor bowed and bowed deeply: "General Li, please!" ”

Li Qing'an saw that he was sincere, so he nodded and said, "Okay!" Tonight, let Chang Dongzhu break the bank. ”

The proprietor was overjoyed, turned around and shouted to the man: "Go and bring the ten bottles of broken leaf wine in the cellar!" ”

The guy agreed and ran away, Li Qingan saw that he was bold, and immediately had a good impression of him, waved his hand and smiled: "Chang Dongzhu might as well sit down and have a drink." ”

Several pro-soldiers hurriedly gave up a seat, and Chang Dongzhu smiled: "It's my honor to be able to drink with General Li." ”

He didn't postpone it, sat down, at this time, the guy sent ten bottles of aged wine, Chang Dongzhu opened a bottle of wine, poured a glass of wine for Li Qing'an and himself, and filled it for Mingzhu, he stood up and raised his glass to everyone: "General Li, although I am a broken leaf businessman, but my ancestor is also a Han general of the Tang Dynasty, I have always admired the most bloody soldiers who did not hesitate to die for the country, your deeds make my blood boil, I can't wait to rush to Chiling immediately, draw my sword and participate in the war, come!" This glass of wine, I salute the heroes, everyone drinks. ”

The army suddenly agreed, raised their glasses and drank together, and immediately praised: "It's really good wine!" ”

Li Qing'an also drank it all, he also felt that this glass of wine was sweet and long, and the taste was extremely mellow, even more luscious than the Jiaohe wine he had drunk, and he couldn't help but praise: "Good wine!" ”

Chang Dongzhu smiled, "This wine has been cellared for twenty years, and it was left by my father, but unfortunately there are only the last ten bottles of wine left, which can't make everyone happy." ”

Li Qing'an saw that he was sincere, so he filled him with a glass of wine and said with a smile: "I heard from Chang Dongzhu just now that the ancestor is also a Tang general, I don't know which famous Tang general?" ”

Chang Dongzhu shook his head and said: "My ancestor went to the broken leaves as early as the early years of Zhenguan, and it has been nearly a hundred years, so don't mention it!" ”

He was a little sad, took the wine and drank it again, and sighed: "The biggest wish of our Broken Leaf Han people is that Broken Leaf can return to the Tang Dynasty, and Datang will rebuild Broken Leaf Military Town. ”

"Chang Dongzhu doesn't have to be sad, I personally think that as long as the Tang Dynasty stabilizes the situation in Longyou and lifts the threat of Tubo, he will definitely reconsider the issue of Lingxi, and I also believe that sooner or later, I, Li Qing'an, will lead the army into Broken Leaf City."

"Others say, I may not believe it, but General Li said so, I will wait, wait for General Li's army to enter the broken leaves."

．．．．．．．．．

After drinking, Li Qing'an sent Mingzhu back to his house, and Dugu's house was in the Wubenfang, and he arrived after a while. Dugu Mingzhu drank a little too much, she staggered and just walked up the steps of the back door, the door suddenly opened, only to see her sister Dugu Mingyue running out of the door, holding her sister and complaining: "Why did you only come back now, I have been waiting for you, ah!" You've actually drunk. ”

Anger flashed in her eyes, her sister was young and ignorant, she actually went to drink with others, and she made a mistake with a wicked person, so what's the matter, she raised her head and glared angrily at Li Qingan, "Who are you?" Dare to take my sister to drink without permission. ”

The night was dark, and it was a little far away, she didn't recognize it at once, Li Qingxin was also a little apologetic, and hurriedly stepped forward and arched his hand: "Miss Mingyue, I'm really sorry, I won't take Sister Ling to drink again in the future." ”

Dugu Mingyue recognized Li Qing'an at this time, she was stunned for a moment, and the anger in her heart suddenly disappeared by seven or eight points, "It turned out to be General Li, I was a little heavier just now, I'm sorry!" ”

Li Qingan smiled slightly: "My sister loves my sister's heart, I can understand it, I originally wanted Mingzhu to come back early tonight, but I didn't grasp the time, which made you worried." ”

"Thank you, General Lee, for your understanding."

Dugu Mingyue glanced back at her sister, sighed and said: "My sister has always been surnamed Ren, although she is not young, but she always grows up like a child, the more she is not allowed to go out, she will want to go out, my grandfather doesn't know how many times he has scolded her, and he can't change it, everyone has to let her, but I can't rest assured that she can't get rid of her, for fear that she will make a mistake with a bandit and harm her life, hey!" When will she grow up? ”

Li Qingan nodded silently, and then arched his hand and smiled: "Miss Mingyue, I also regard Mingzhu as my sister, I will try my best to persuade her, and I will never let her mislead herself, then I will go first." ”

"Thank you, General Lee, for sending her back."

Dugu Mingyue helped Mingzhu back, but heard Li Qingan smile from a distance: "I also wish Miss Mingyue to find a good mate as soon as possible and find a satisfactory Langjun." ”

Dugu Mingyue's face was swollen red, she turned her head and glared at Li Qingan, but saw that he had already gone away, Dugu Mingyue looked at his back and couldn't help but sigh softly.

．．．．．．．．

As the night wore on, the drum that closed the door was beating, and at this moment, a carriage drove into the Gwangtokubo next to the West Market, stopped in front of a large mansion, and the carriage opened, and the proprietor of Atamiju Tsunejin hurriedly walked up the steps, and he knocked on the door, and the door opened a crack, and he walked in in a flash.

After a while, Chang Jin walked to an inner room with closed doors and windows, and pushed the door directly in, the room was brightly lit, and an old man with a gray beard was reading a book under the lamp, and when he saw Chang Jin, he put down the book and smiled: "Why did the virtuous brother think of coming over today?" ”

"Big brother, that Li Qingan came to my wine shop again today."

"What, did the prince make a secret appointment with him again?"

"There is no prince, he just takes his men down to drink."

Chang Jin sat down, he was a little uneasy, as if he was thinking about something, the white-bearded old man smiled slightly and said, "Does the virtuous brother have anything on his mind?" ”

"Big brother, I'm wondering, can you pull this Li Qingan into our Hidden Dragon Society?"
