Chapter 251: Lonely Cold
In the Baozhu Temple tonight, the lights are bright, and the host Chao Gai ordered the little minions to hold a banquet to entertain Xu Ning, a distinguished guest from Liangshan Dazhai.
"Originally, I was going to wait for Brother Wang Xian to come over today, and the big guy would rest as soon as he got drunk! How do you know that Dong Ping's house slipped to Yunzhou from under your noses, and Wang Xiandi had to go down the mountain to take care of this person himself, but I didn't do things well! Chao Gai shook his head as he spoke, apologizing to Xu Ning.
Xu Ning saw that he owed a debt, and said humbly: "If it weren't for King Chao Tianwang mobilizing the whole village and dragging the officials and troops of Qingfu behind, I Liangshan would not have been able to take Zhujiazhuang so smoothly!" As for Dong Ping's matter, it has nothing to do with Chao Tianwang, and the Heavenly King should not blame himself! Come, the younger brother will replace the elder brother here, and pay homage to the king of heaven with a bowl! ”
After Xu Ning finished speaking, he did it first as a respect, Chao Gai Ha Lu smiled, also dried the wine, and replied: "Teacher Xu is too polite!" I think that when the Birthday Gang incident happened, I and several brothers were wanted by the government, if it wasn't for the protection of Brother Wang Xian, where would we be today? Later, the Qingzhou soldiers pressed the border, and it was the Wang Lun brothers who personally brought the army and horses to save them. Not to mention that not long ago in Jiangzhou, if it wasn't for Brother Wang Xian at that time, most of the people here would have taken a break long ago! This time, I didn't make much effort in the cottage, but I just compared it with the official army! ”
After Chao Gai finished speaking, he sighed with great feeling, looked at the leaders under his command and said: "In my life, if I hadn't won the noble brother Wang Xian, I don't know how many times I have died!" Now if my cottage can serve the Wang Lun brothers with a meager effort, it will be the honor of my Chao Gai and all the brothers, even if they go to the soup and fire, they will not hesitate! ”
Seeing that Chao Gai finished speaking, his eyes turned from everyone present one by one, Song Jiang was stunned, and when he saw Chao Gai's eyes, he hurriedly raised the wine bowl to hide the embarrassment in his heart; Gongsun Sheng smiled and looked at Wu Yong, who had already unloaded the burden in his heart. Both of them had a smile on their lips; Wen Zhongrong and Cui Ye looked back at Chao Gai intently, nodding their heads; Liu Tang grinned at Hua Rong, and when Hua Rong saw this, he raised his glass to look at this brother Yaojing.
Among the rest of the people, except for Han Bolong and Wang Daoren, they also knew that Lu Dao was drinking wine and Chao Gai perfunctory, starting from Mu Hong and Yan Shun, they all bowed their heads and did not make eye contact with Chao Gai; Bai Sheng and Li Zhong are at the bottom of the rankings, because the leaders sitting next to them are lukewarm, and they are not too outstanding. Awkwardly raised his glass, but put it down again.
Chao Gai didn't care, he raised his head sharply, and dried the wine in the bowl, Song Jiang saw this, and drank the wine in a hurry, Gongsun Sheng, Wu Yong and others naturally would not slack off, only Mu Hong, Kong Ming and the like were grinding, not dry or brittle. The wine was held to his mouth, wanting to drink it or not, Song Jiang saw this, and hurriedly said, "Come." A cup to the king and the king's leader! ”
He knew that Lu Dao Chao Gai was a rough and heroic man, and he generally didn't think much about this kind of thing, but Sun Sheng and Wu Yong were not vegetarians and were very sensitive to this aspect. Especially that Zhiduoxing, when there is nothing to do, he sits there all day thinking about people.
Everyone saw Song Jiang raise their heads. Only then did he raise his glass and drink it lively.
Xu Ning was boiled up in the officialdom, how could he not understand these things in front of him. It's just that he is a guest, and no matter how much conflict there is in the host's house, it's not something he likes to put his beak, he only sighs for Chao Gai in his heart.
It's better to be at home!
Xu Ning sighed secretly, if you are united, where can you find so many messy troubles? At this time, he couldn't help but miss the brothers in the cottage, and although it was less than half a month, the homesickness was getting stronger and stronger.
"I heard that Guizhai broke Zhujiazhuang this time, not to mention, but also exterminated four or five thousand officials and troops in Yunzhou, Leader Wang is really generous! My two brothers, I often hear Brother Chao Gai talk about the benefits of this hero, but it's a pity that I can't see them! Wen Zhongrong picked up a glass of wine and saluted Xu Ning.
"Brother, the cottage of the leader of the king is full of outstanding people like Teacher Xu, and of course the soldiers and horses under his command are good! You don't see the 600 horse army in my village, let Teacher Xu practice for a few days, everyone just look at the momentum, it's different! Cui Ye said with a smile.
Xu Ning saw that he said with a smile: "Those are two people with a solid foundation, not to mention the younger brother, even if they are able to train again, it is impossible to change the old appearance of the team in a few days!" The two of them are too much in love, drinking, drinking! ”
Wu Yongyan smiled very brightly when he heard this, looked at Xu Ning and said: "Xiao Kewen that Zhujiazhuang is richer than the prince, I'm afraid that this time Guizhai will have a lot of gains?" ”
Xu Ning smiled and replied, "This little Ke doesn't know!" In the past two days, my brother will come to thank him in person, and when the time comes, you will know! ”
Wu Yongjian said with a smile: "That's, that's!" ”
"I'm waiting to gnaw bones and watch others eat meat, what's this called!" Han Bolong muttered when he saw it.
"Bolon! Nonsense! Chao Gai saw that Han Bolong's old mistake had been made again, and he scolded him. Seeing this, Xu Ning hurriedly got up and persuaded him. I saw Han Bolong drooping his head and said: "His cottage family has a big business, money and food, we can't compare, if it weren't for Brother Song laying the foundation to support these days, we would have drunk the wind early!" ”
With a "bang", I saw Liu Tangyuan open his eyes, smash the wine bowl in his hand to the ground, pointed at Han Bolong and scolded: "Let go of your fart!" If it weren't for Brother Wang Lun who saved our lives several times, I would have seen what you would do to waste food! How did these two dragon mountains come about? Who kept the money and food in the treasury? Don't say you don't know what to do! ”
Seeing that in front of so many people, Liu Tang didn't save face for himself at all, and Han Bolong trembled with anger. Chao Gai saw that the commotion was not good, and he wanted to get up and get angry, but he was persuaded by Xu Ninghao's words, Song Jiang stared at the dishes on the table, and looked very attentive, as if he didn't hear the hot scene at the banquet at all.
Kong Ming, Kong Liang and others are even more happy to watch the excitement, this Han Bolong and Liu Tang are both characters who robbed the Birthday Gang with Chao Tianwang back then, they can be regarded as people on the same line, at this time, watching them fight in the nest, they are all secretly happy.
Gongsun Sheng saw that these two people were making a mess, so he asked some people to watch the joke in vain, and got up to play the round.
Mu Hong coughed, got up and said: "On the edge of Jiangzhou that day, the lord of Wang Zhai saved our lives, this time we will report back to the cottage and make a disturbance in Qingfu, which is also a courtesy exchange, and I Mu Hong is the first to approve!" It's just that we also have to eat, we can't always play with others, in the future, such a big event, I think Brother Chao Gai had better discuss it with the brothers, and then make a decision! ”
"Regarding the major affairs of the cottage, Brother Chao Gai naturally wants to discuss with the brothers and listen to what you mean! It's just that my brother is the master of the cottage, and when I make decisions in the future, if I don't get everyone's approval, won't I be able to speak? Wu Yong sat on the chair and looked at Mu Hongdao with a smile.
Mu Hong asked Wu Yong to ask rhetorically, he was the king and hegemon in Jieyang Town, where did he get so angry, he was about to have a seizure, and suddenly heard Song Jiang say at this time: "Brother Mu Hong is drunk, drunk!" ”
Song Jiang woke up from the dream in time, looked at Mu Hong sternly, and glanced at Xue Yong, Xue Yong hurriedly got up and helped Mu Hong, and said, "Brother, eat too much wine, and go rest!" Mu Hong got up violently, hurriedly bowed his hand in the direction of the core person sitting at the front of the wine table, and went out of the temple, and Xue Yong hurriedly followed when he saw this.
Seeing that Mu Hong was actually resentful, Wen Zhongrong and Cui Ye glanced at each other, and Wen Zhongrong said, "Wu Junshi is right! What is the master of the cottage? Same meaning as the head of the family! It is the person who takes the idea in this "family", the head of the family takes the idea, and the family listens to it, where do you have so much to say! Although Mu Hong is not here, but the others also have this idea, Wen Zhongrong said mercilessly.
Gongsun Sheng glanced at Wu Yong with a smile, and found that he was really much more reliable recently, and it seemed that suffering can sharpen people's minds, and he listened to Wen Zhongrong and Cui Ye with feelings at the moment, and also said: "The owner of the village speaks, although he does not say that it is a golden mouth, but he also says a sentence, you must understand your own duty!" ”
"Alright, I'll say two words! I'm Erlongshan and Liangshan, breaking bones and tendons! Let's not talk about it in the future! Fortunately, there are good men here, and they won't say anything about you, but if you spread it outside, they will say that you are ungrateful, and you don't know what to do! Hua Rong also spoke up.
Mu Hong's words were very serious, and he alluded to Chao Gai's inappropriate approach on the grounds of Liangshan, and everyone here was an understanding person, so everyone's rebuttal was not light, and even leaders like Hua Rong and Gongsun Sheng, who were well-cultivated, put it bluntly, and the shock to other leaders who had not spoken could be imagined.
Song Jiang completely felt what was called.
At this time, Chao Gai has not spoken, and the leaders of the first few chairs of the cottage have supported him, and at this time the strength of the ranking is revealed, and the leader who is close to him is either in the middle, or at the bottom of the ranking, speaking at this moment, his momentum is three points lower before he speaks, where is the confidence of the top heroes when they speak?
Even if they opened their mouths, they were afraid that they would be no different from Mu Hong just now, not to mention that they had no effect, and they had become targets.
Although it was a matter of facts, even Hua Rong expressed his preference for Chao Gai, and at this time, Song Jiang only felt that there was a lonely coldness spreading everywhere in his heart.
In this life, if you want to realize your ambitions, there is only one last opportunity left. If you can't grasp it well, shouldn't you regret it for life?
But how to start to change your current dilemma in the cottage?
Song Jiang pondered hard.
"Report! Liangshan Bocha sent news that the white-clothed Xiushi Wang Zhai owner brought the cottage leaders Jiao Ting, Lu Fang, and Guo Sheng to visit Chao Tianwang in person! Half an hour later, we will arrive at the Beiqing River! ”
The urgent report from outside the Baozhu Temple shocked everyone in the temple, and they only heard Hua Rong say: "I heard that Dong Pingnai, the two-spear general, is one of the few fierce generals in the forbidden army, and Brother Wang Lun cleaned him up so quickly?" ”
I only heard Chao Gai smile heartily and said: "So I can rest assured, I have been hanging my heart before, for fear that this Dong Ping will cause some trouble to Liangshan in the past!" That's the best, go! Everyone went to the river to greet Brother Wang Lunxian! ”
"Brother...... The elder brother ...... "Seeing that everyone was preparing for departure, but Song Jiang was in a daze, Hua Rong stepped forward to call him.
"Huh!? What? Song Jiang woke up like a dream and looked at Hua Rong out of shape. (To be continued......)
