Chapter 461: Taking the Opportunity to Strike Iron (I)
Listening to the flattering words of the subordinates around him, and then looking at Li Zicheng who was smiling at him, Liu Zongmin stood on the spot with his hands crossed on his waist proudly, looking left and right and feeling that he was really amazing, and broke through the blockade of the enemy army with a remnant army, and brought countless grains, grass, gold and silver treasures, and asked who else in the righteous army could do it except himself.
Looking at Liu Zongmin, who was satisfied, Niu Jinxing, who was watching coldly from the sidelines, frowned inadvertently, this Liu Zongmin is now becoming more and more arrogant, in the past, he pretended to be the number two person in the army, and now after dividing the army for a period of time, he has been the leader for a few months, and he is even more arrogant, as if he is a figure on an equal footing with King Chuang, hasn't he heard the words "there is no one in the sky and no two lords in the country". If you don't dispel such thoughts in time, it will be very dangerous.
Thinking of this, Niu Venus Ingot looked around like a wandering gaze, and happened to meet the eyes of Li Yan and Song Xiance, the eyes of the three of them looked at each other, and the three of them nodded slowly and unacknowledging with each other.
After exchanging good opinions with the two friends, Niu Jinxing habitually stroked the long beard under his chin, and smiled at Li Zicheng: "King Chuang, it is a great joy for Mr. Liu to come back, let's not let Mr. Liu drink the northwest wind here, let's go in and say anything we have to say." ”
Niu Jinxing's words are very good, and his attitude is also very sincere, which makes people feel like a spring breeze, Li Zicheng also laughed after hearing it, and said to Liu Zongmin: "Jiexuan, we have been standing for a long time in order to wait for you, no, someone has an opinion, let's go, let's go into the town to talk." ”
Liu Zongmin also smiled, "I'm so tired that King Chuang and the brothers have been waiting for so long, but it's not my old Liu, King Chuang, let's go in and talk!" ”
After speaking, Liu Zongmin took Li Zicheng's hand and walked forward first, and the generals beside him were all rough people with mud legs, and they didn't pay so much attention to it in peace, and they didn't care when they saw it, so they also stepped forward. It's just that they didn't notice that a trace of dissatisfaction appeared in the eyes of the last three people at this time.
Everyone came to a patchwork courtyard, at this time, there were dozens of female soldiers in red short clothes in the courtyard were busy before and after, these women's clothes are all graceful and beautiful, especially they look very heroic, there is a special taste, Li Zicheng's wife Gao Guiying is directing these female soldiers to busy with the arrangement.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Li Zicheng shouted loudly: "Daughter-in-law, have you prepared the food, we are about to starve." ”
As soon as Gao Guiying turned around, he smiled when he saw Li Zicheng and Liu Zongmin beside him: "It's been good for a long time, just waiting for you and Brother Liu, you must be hungry, sit in the house quickly!" ”
Everyone entered a large room, which was very large, about 100 square meters, and in this room was filled with several rectangular tables, each table could accommodate twenty people to eat at the same time, and the tables were full of fragrant dishes.
Everyone sat down in turn, Li Zicheng naturally sat in the first place, Liu Zongmin also sat on his right head, everyone was coarse, plus a group of people stood all morning, a group of people walked the mountain road for more than a month, all of them were hungry, after sitting down, everyone did not speak, all of them opened their stomachs and ate loudly, eating very rudely, only Niu Jinxing and others Although they were also hungry, the speed of eating was not slow, but it seemed that they were more than the people around them. For a moment, the room was full of chewing sounds.
After a long time, Liu Zongmin, who felt that he finally had some goods in his stomach, finally put down his chopsticks, wiped the oil and water in his mouth with his sleeve, and said after burping: "His grandmother's has been hungry for more than a month, and now he has finally eaten a decent full meal." ”
Li Zicheng also put down his chopsticks and said with a smile: "Jiexuan, what you said is not right, you have carried tens of thousands of stones of grain and grass along the way, can you still starve?" ”
Liu Zongmin glared and said: "King Chuang, you don't know, those grains are either high-bright soybeans or millet nests, not even a meat smell, after eating for a month, I am about to fade out of the bird, I finally figured it out, this is better or the best to eat meat!" ”
"Hahaha"
Everyone was amused by Liu Zongmin's words, even Li Zicheng laughed, and at this time, Gao Guiying, who was sitting side by side with Li Zicheng, picked up a glass of wine and said to Liu Zongmin: "Jiexuan, you have worked hard along the way, sister-in-law toasts you!" ”
Seeing Gao Guiying holding up the wine glass, Liu Zongmin didn't dare to slack off, and also picked up the wine glass, and said, "Sister-in-law, you are too polite, Lao Liu, I will do it first as a respect." With that, Liu Zongmin drank the wine down.
"Good!" Gao Guiying drank a cheer, and then picked up the wine glass and drank it all.
Gao Guiying's bold posture also won the applause of the house, although Gao Guiying is a woman, but she is the daughter of the former king Gao Yingxiang, Gao Yingxiang has a very high reputation in the army, after Gao Yingxiang's death, she married Li Zicheng, these years Gao Guiying not only fought with Li Zicheng and the officers and soldiers, but also managed all the family members and logistics in the army, so all the generals respected her, even Liu Zongmin, who was not afraid of the sky and the earth, also respected her for three points.
After drinking this glass of wine, Gao Guiying said to Liu Zongmin with a smile: "Jiexuan, I don't know how much silver taels and grain you brought back this time?" ”
"Haha!" Liu Zongmin smiled heartily: "I wondered just now, why did my sister-in-law toast me so happily today, my feelings are worried about what I Lao Liu brought back, sister-in-law, don't worry, my old Liu will not eat your meal in vain, this time I Lao Liu brought back 50,000 stones of grain, 500,000 taels of silver, 12,000 taels of gold, and some antique calligraphy and paintings. ”
Gao Guiying shook her head after hearing this, looked at Liu Zongmin meaningfully and said with a smile: "Jiexuan, did you really hand over everything to your sister-in-law, I'm afraid there are still things hidden by you, right?" ”
"Hmm"
As soon as Gao Guiying said this, everyone's faces were condensed, although most of the people present were born with mud legs, but no one was a fool, the generals who went out to make some money and stuff something into their pockets were almost open unspoken rules, to say that Liu Zongmin did not leave a little thing for himself, it is a fool and do not believe it, but Gao Guiying so openly proposed it is a violation of the default rules of everyone.
Liu Zongmin's face also sank, put the wine glass in his hand on the table, and said gloomily: "Sister-in-law, what do you mean?" ”
As Liu Zongmin's voice fell, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly began to solidify, and everyone's eyes looked at Li Zicheng who was sitting in the first place, Gao Guiying is Li Zicheng's daughter-in-law, and the husband and wife are one, and everyone naturally thinks that Gao Guiying's words also represent Li Zicheng's words.
Just when Li Zicheng didn't speak, Gao Guiying smiled, she pointed at Liu Zongmin and said playfully: "Jiexuan, you are not honest, you dare to lie in front of your sister-in-law, then you tell your sister-in-law, just now your sister-in-law can see clearly, when you and King Chuang came in, there are several big cars behind you that are not tight, I heard that you are so precious that you even have to take it with you when you go to the toilet, you don't need to say more about what is inside, you say, should you hand over the things in it to your sister-in-law for you to keep for you?" ”
"This"
Liu Zongmin's face couldn't help but become strange, and everyone was stunned at the same time, and then the hall erupted into a burst of laughter, which almost toppled the roof.
"Hahahaha"
As everyone knows, Liu Zongmin is a fierce general in the army, brave in battle, but there is also an obvious weakness, that is, lustful, his hobby is well-known in the army, and everyone knows that the cars parked at the door just now must be the woman Liu Zongmin collected in Hunan. Gao Guiying said this purely to tease Liu Zongmin.
At this time, Rao is Liu Zongmin's cheeks were thick-skinned, and he couldn't help but turn red, and said hesitantly: "Sister-in-law, you don't know that I have that hobby, why do you use me to make fun of me!" ”
"Oh, what's wrong?" Gao Guiying feigned anger and said: "Jiexuan, my sister-in-law is in charge of the women's camp, this is a rule set by the previous King Chuang, all women in our righteous army are under the control of my sister-in-law, you won't admit this." ”
"Sister-in-law, look at what you said, who dares not to admit it, but it's a coco."
Liu Zongmin rarely lowered his head and said nothing, there were several women in these big cars that Zhang Xianzhong gave him when he passed through Sichuan, he hadn't tasted it yet, how could he be willing to send them to the women's camp to do chores.
Gao Guiying sighed, shook her head and said with some hatred: "Jiexuan, when did you say that you can change this problem, your sister-in-law has known you since you were a young man, and after all these years, my sister-in-law has also said that you don't know how many times, but you have never changed it." As the saying goes, the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, your daughter-in-law has been with you for so many years, but the number of times you have been to her over the years is getting less and less, she doesn't know how many times she has cried in front of her sister-in-law for this matter, you say, should your sister-in-law say a few words to you? Isn't it time for you to take care of yourself? ”
With Gao Guiying's counting, Liu Zongmin was so ashamed that he almost stuffed his head into the crotch of his pants, which made Li Yan, Niu Jinxing and Song Xiance sigh in their hearts
