After Cao Zhuo left the palace, he saw Iron Fist waiting at the door at first glance. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Seeing Cao Zhuo, Iron Fist immediately greeted him.

"Why are you here?" Cao Zhuo asked.

Iron Fist was stunned, he was one of the six guards of the Great Prince, what was the problem with coming to the palace? But the master is this temperament, so he replied: "Master, Meng Chao, the young general of Qinglongwei, asked my uncle to go to Qinghe Building for a drink, and my uncle specially asked someone to inform my master, so I came." ”

"Drinking? It's still my brother, I won't forget my eldest brother when I drink, haha, let's go to Qinghe Building together. Cao Zhuo smiled and strode out.

Iron Fist hurriedly followed and reminded behind: "Master, it is Meng Chao of the Qinglongwei who is treating, and the three guards of the Vermilion Bird Guard, the Qinglongwei, and the White Tiger Guard have always been in the same spirit, could there be any conspiracy?" "Before, the White Tiger Guard wanted to hunt down and kill the Heavenly Hermit, and now the Qinglong Guard has come to treat him again, which is obviously a cat, but I don't know why the Heavenly Hermit went directly to the banquet, and now even the master is thinking about going to drink.

Cao Zhuo said as he walked: "Hehe, you don't have to worry about this, Meng Chao and I and your uncle are old acquaintances, and this kid won't be stupid to come to us to make trouble." ”

"Old acquaintances?" Iron Fist was stunned again, why are there so many old acquaintances?

"This is called no fighting, no acquaintance, your uncle and I met Meng Chao in the capital, then Meng Chao was beaten by your uncle at that time, but he went back to move the rescuers back to seek revenge, and he was beaten back again, and then it was gone." Cao Zhuo said that it was as if he had returned to the night in the capital, that eventful night.

After coming to Qinghe Building, Iron Fist did not see the expected box, but in the hall, he was watching Meng Chao, Tianyinke and another person eating meat and drinking.

Cao Zhuo smiled and walked over directly to sit next to the Tianyinke, took the wine jar and poured it.

Seeing that it was Cao Zhuo, the hermit didn't say anything with a smile on his face.

Meng Chao knew Cao Zhuo, so he naturally wouldn't say anything.

Instead, the sword was broken, and when he saw someone coming to grab the wine, he was anxious: "Alas, I said who are you, why did you come to grab the wine and drink?" "As he spoke, he was about to snatch the wine jar, but he made a surprising mistake.

was actually dodged by Cao Zhuo lightly.

Suddenly, Broken Sword became interested: "You drunkard, you still have some ability." ”

"Ahh Cao Zhuo let out a satisfied voice, his mouth left the wine jar and looked at the broken sword: "Give it back to you." ”

Facing the wine jar thrown from a short distance, the broken sword reached out and caught it, but when he saw that there was no drop of wine left in the wine jar, he was anxious: "Your wine jar?" Drink so fast? ”

Both Tianyinke and Meng Chao laughed.

Cao Zhuo glanced at the broken sword and said dissatisfiedly: "The three of you have drunk more than two jars, and I only drank half of the jars." ”

Broken Sword was stunned, and the jar under the table was discovered, so he looked at Meng Chao with some expectation.

Meng Chao's face was embarrassed: "Down, I'm really shy." ”

The iron fist on the side wanted to drink a few glasses, but when he heard Meng Chao's words, it seemed that he had heard it wrong, the dignified Qinglongwei Major General, the little son of the Wu'an Hou Mansion, would be shy?

However, Iron Fist didn't see Meng Chao's attendant, who was pitifully nibbling on steamed buns at a table in the back.

"Won't it?" Broken Sword was greatly surprised: "Aren't you the general of Qinglongwei?" "Does it mean that you will be poor even if you are a general?

Meng Chao's face was a little embarrassed, and he arched his hand to Broken Sword: "Broken Hero, it's true that you are a general, but a month's worth of money is only enough to buy this jar of wine." ”

"It's just ten years old, how much is it?" Broken Sword looked at Xiao Er.

Xiao Er on the side had already heard the words here and was watching the joke, but he didn't expect the broken sword to look at him, and hurriedly replied: "One hundred taels for one altar." ”

"Damn, who asked you, your black shop costs a hundred taels of wine?"

Facing the angry eyes of the broken sword, the shopkeeper hurriedly lowered his head and went to find a job.

Early in the morning, Broken Sword deliberately looked at Xiao Er when he noticed that someone was snickering, and turned his head to look at Meng Chao with a kind face: "I heard that you are still the son of the Hou family of Wu'an, your old man should be very rich, right?" Take out your old man's name and you should be able to get it on credit. ”

Alcoholic, this is definitely an alcoholic.

Tianyinke, Meng Chao, Iron Fist, and Meng Chao's followers thought to themselves when they heard it.

After Meng Chao listened, he really didn't know what to say, his own Lao Tzu was indeed rich, but it was his Lao Tzu, not his own.

Cao Zhuo laughed freely: "Hahaha, you don't know this, right?" ”

"What do I not know?" The broken sword is a little inexplicable.

Cao Zhuo continued: "General Meng, but he has a lot of backbone, since the army, he has been in the army for food and housing, and he has not taken a penny from his family. ”

"Self-reliant?" Broken Sword looked at Meng Chao.

Meng Chao smiled and nodded.

Tianyinke actually didn't believe that Meng Chao would be shy, but what came out of Cao Zhuo's mouth must be eighty percent true, and at the same time, Tianyinke also knew how much the officer was rich, and knew that what Meng Chao said was true, and Meng Chao's salary was no more than one hundred taels a month.

However, Tianyinke suddenly became interested in Meng Chao, from a son of a family to a Qinglong general, it should have been arranged by Meng Kun, but why not take a penny from the family?

Seeing the suspicious face of Tianyinke, Cao Zhuo immediately said: "Our General Meng Shao, but it is not simple, it is said that when General Meng Shao wanted to join the army, General Meng Lao burned incense to return his spirits, and wanted to arrange a leisurely position for General Meng Shao in Qinglongwei, but our General Meng Shao had the backbone and secretly ran out of home, it can be said that he ran away from home, and he ran away from home more than once, and he actually went to Qinglongwei to recruit recruits to sign up and become a recruit, his name at that time was Wu Zizhao, isn't it?" ”

Meng Chao smiled and shook his head: "Lord Cao is well-informed, he was young and ignorant at the time, and he just did stupid things. ”

"Haha, Lao Tzu likes you to be so backbone, but I don't like you to be so pretentious, just do it, I didn't say anything stupid, if it was stupid, then I volunteered to investigate the Gaochang royal court back then, wasn't it also stupid? Isn't it also young and ignorant? Cao Zhuo's eyes were full of excitement and he looked at Meng Chao.

Meng Chao put away his smile: "Yes, at that time, I didn't want to rely on the power of my family, so I went to be a soldier, and only in this way can I get real experience." ”

"Talented people, I'm not afraid of being buried, although you don't have good martial arts, but you have the talent of a commander, when you were in the new commander of Qinglongwei competition, if you didn't deliberately keep your hand, I'm afraid you are now the commander of Qinglongwei, how can you still be a general?"

Meng Chao hurriedly stopped Cao Zhuo from speaking: "My lord, you can't talk nonsense about this. ”

Cao Zhuo seemed to be reminiscing about the taste of the wine, and then said: "Ten years of old wine is no different, let's go to another place to drink, I invite." ”

"Really?" Broken Sword is most active against alcohol.

Tianyinke smiled: "My eldest brother said that if you want to drink, I'm afraid you won't be able to drink, otherwise you can drink as much as you want." ”

"Haha, it's still my brother who understands me." Cao Zhuo patted Tianyinke on the shoulder and said, and then he remembered something and looked behind Tianyinke and asked, "What about Miss Yu'er?" ”

"She said she was going home and told her to be safe." Tianyinke smiled, after all, a few big men drink, and there is always inconvenience in a girl's house.

Cao Zhuo nodded and teased: "Aren't you afraid that other girls will run away?" ”

"Haha, what you said is wrong, I think the two of them have a deep love, and they can't open the thunder, if the hermit doesn't go to find someone, everyone will come to the door." Broken Sword laughed while urging Cao Zhuo to lead the way to drink.

But I still have to wait for Meng Chao to finish settling the bill.

However, when he saw Meng Chao settling the bill, his attendant also followed, and the two of them almost took out all the broken silver on their bodies to settle the bill, and they were really very shy.

"It's good that I didn't order too many dishes, otherwise I would have to leave them down to wash the dishes." Broken Sword was a little glad that if they stayed, they would definitely be embarrassed to leave like this, and they would stay to wash the dishes.

The group was walking under the leadership of Cao Zhuo, and suddenly Meng Chao noticed that something was wrong and hurriedly said, "Where are we going?" ”

"Major General, it seems to be the Marquis of Wu'an." Meng Chao's attendant said.

Tianyinke and the others looked at Cao Zhuo.

"Any questions?" Cao Zhuo looked at a few people and asked.

Meng Chao stood up and asked, "My lord, aren't you going to my house for a bar?" "I was a little apprehensive in my heart, since I ran away from home and became the general of Qinglongwei was discovered, Meng Chao has rarely gone home, and Meng Kun is so angry that he almost wants to expel Meng Chao from the house, the main reason is that Meng Chao's safety is not controlled, not only in the arrangement of the position, but also in the marriage.

In addition to the supreme commander, Qinglongwei has three generals, ten generals, followed by thirty major generals, and the second is the deputy general, originally Meng Kun was going to arrange Meng Chao to become a general, but Meng Chao said that he was not qualified to do the position of a general in terms of military merits, so he refused, and even refused the marriage with Ning Fu.

This almost made Meng Kun mad, and Meng Chao rarely went home after that, except for some important festivals.

"It's almost, but it's not your family, it's your third brother's family." Cao Zhuo smiled.

"My third brother?" Meng Chao was stunned for a moment, and was puzzled, it is true that the third brother's house is next to the Hou Mansion of Wu'an, but what does my third brother have to do with Cao Zhuo?

"Hehe, you'll know when you go." Cao Zhuo's face was mysterious.

Broken Sword urged all the way: "Why are you asking so much, let's go." "It seems that the alcohol addiction is very serious.

Meng Chao remembered that his third brother Meng En's home was an ordinary courtyard, with only five rooms, a hall, a kitchen, a study and then a bedroom.

As for the name of the third brother Meng En, it was because it was a gift from God, the third brother, who was originally born weak, had lost his breath, but he unexpectedly came back to life, but since then his body has been very weak, it can be said that he is riddled with injuries, his father is a tiger general, looking at such a useless son, he feels unlucky, and naturally he is not to be seen, so he has been arranging for Meng En to live outside the house, the situation is almost the same as Meng Chao, and he will not go back on any important holidays.

The difference is that Meng Chao was driven out of the fruit he planted; But Meng En was not welcomed and was kicked out.

Meng Chao thought back a lot, he and the third brother have not met much since childhood, unless they meet on the New Year's holiday, but his father did not let the third brother take the seat, and the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner did not let Meng En sit with the family, only let him eat by himself in the kitchen.
