Green Willow Town, Lijia Village, Elder Li's Residence.

At night, Elder Li's house was very lively, everyone sat around the kang table, and tasted the whole sheep banquet provided by the host lively.

Because Wang Dafu couldn't convince Elder Li today, he decided to stay in Lijia Village for one night and continue to convince this stubborn old man tomorrow.

What a big deal is the mayor going to stay in the village for one night? Of course, it is necessary to entertain well, the problem is that Lijia Village is too small, and there is not even a slightly larger hotel, so in the end I had to entertain Wang Dafu in Elder Li's house, and the people accompanying the guests are in addition to Elder Li, Elder Li's son Li Zhu, naturally it is the Liangshan good man Meng Kang and the senior captain Zhao Dayana who stayed in Lijia Village to preside over the daily work of the Green Willow Dock.

Speaking of which, this is the first time Wang Dafu has spent the night in an affiliated village, of course, he wants to make it lively, although it is in his own home, Elder Li is not willing to make it too simple, and after thinking about it, he finally simply entertained him with the traditional whole sheep banquet on the prairie.

China has a vast land, the food culture of the north and the south is huge, the southern side dishes are delicate and delicate, the rice wine is sweet and greasy and refreshing, and the soft chanting and low singing have their own charm; The northerners, who are as strong as fire, sit together, eat large pieces of hand-grabbed mutton, and drink hot knives, a mouthful of meat and a mouthful of wine, and a person can eat a sheep!

The whole sheep banquet is an outstanding representative of the pride of the north! Guests come to the door, the host picks out a live sheep, in front of the guests, slaughtered and killed, under normal circumstances, mutton half boiled and half roasted, haggis blood sausage, etc. are cooked, put into a large basin and served on the table first, wait until the mutton is processed, cut into large pieces, and also serve directly on the table in a large basin or large plate, insert a dinner knife, and let the guests cut and eat by themselves!

This kind of eating method certainly feels a little rough, but it is not heroic, but today's whole sheep banquet is worthy of the drunken moon wine produced by Luliu Town, not the common roasted knife or mare's milk wine on the prairie!

The eldest sister of Happy Lin and the Wen sisters were both born in the Jiangnan water town, and they are delicate Jiangnan girls, although the drunken moon wine they brewed is not as sweet and refreshing as their daughter Hong, but it can also be called mellow and long, but it is a pity that on such an occasion there is a lack of a bit of the momentum that makes people blood burn the knife, and it is inevitable that there is a bit of a fly in the ointment!

However, Wang Dafu is not a gourmet, no one cares about this flaw, several people have not seen it for a long time, at this moment everyone is holding up the big bowl in their hands, and the banquet is very lively!

However, in addition to the people who accompanied the guests just now, there were also two strangers that Wang Dafu did not know, and after three rounds of drinking, Elder Li began to introduce them to Wang Dafu one by one. After inquiring in detail, Wang Dafu always knew the main reason why Elder Li was able to return safely the first two times!

It turned out that these two forty-year-old men who had experienced vicissitudes at first glance were the backbone of Elder Li's fleet, one first mate, and the other was the helmsman! Both men were high-ranking sailors in the truest sense of the word, and they were quite proficient in all kinds of seafaring work! The most surprising thing is that these two people actually participated in the fleet of Zheng He, the "Three Treasure Eunuchs", when he went to the West, and followed Zheng He to many places!

Wang Dafu looked at senior sailors Qian Si and Wu Asan by himself, and said secretly in his heart: "It turns out that there are still these two people!" It's no wonder that a nautical idiot like Elder Li can come back alive from two almost child's play voyages! "But even so, he didn't intend to agree to Elder Li's third ocean plan, which had nothing to do with whether it was safe or not, it was a matter of whether it was worthless or not!

Elder Li didn't understand Wang Dafu's thoughts, and after introducing his two deputies to Wang Dafu, he poured a large bowl of drunken moon wine and served it to Wang Dafu, and said proudly: "Mayor Town, how is it, now you are not worried about the safety of our fleet, right?" So we're ready to leave tomorrow, right? Wang Dafu just smiled when he heard this, but he didn't speak, Elder Li was a patriarch of Green Willow Town after all, Wang Dafu didn't want to directly refuse his request on such an occasion and embarrass him.

Unexpectedly, Elder Li might have drunk a little too much at this time, but he didn't see that Wang Dafu didn't want to discuss this matter at this time, but continued to ask, "How is it!" Mayor? If you don't talk about me, I'll take you as you agree! Don't worry, Xiao Qian and Ah San are both old sailors! They said they would definitely help me find the place of my dreams! ”

"That's impossible, because the fleet of the Three Treasure Eunuchs has never been to Hawaii!" Wang Dafu pursed his lips disapprerovingly, but he didn't say these words, but turned his head to Elder Li and said, "Elder Li! We're going to talk about it tonight, and we're not going to talk about business! If you keep asking, I'm going to punish you!" ”

Elder Li looked like his tongue was a little big at this time, and he waved his hand proudly and said, "Okay~~ Okay!" Then let's talk about it tomorrow, today is drinking~~ drinking! While speaking, he gave Wang Dafu another full bowl!

If you drink and eat in "Life", the main brain will stimulate the corresponding sensory system of the player's brain through the helmet to make the player feel, which means that you will get drunk when you drink in it, but this drunkenness will not hurt the body!

The two jars were drunk and drunk, and everyone present seemed to be unable to hold on, and the wine was rising, and they fell crookedly on the kang one by one, at this time, Elder Li's family walked in and sent a few people to the guest room to rest.

In the middle of the moon, people who had worked hard all day fell into dreams, and the entire Lijia Village fell into silence.

The first time I stayed at Elder Li's house, of course, Elder Li's family couldn't treat Wang Dafu, the big mayor, slowly, and arranged him in the best upper room in Lijia Village, although there is only a first-class small broken village, but the residents in the village have all moved from Luliu Town, and there are a lot of things that ordinary houses in Luliu Town should have, and there are a lot of houses in Lijia Village, that is, Elder Li is now obsessed with putting all his energy on ocean voyages, otherwise why would Lijia Village develop so slowly!

At the whole sheep banquet just now, Wang Dafu, who ate it, had a great appetite, and in the coaxing and toasting of everyone, he drank a jar of drunken moon wine, and when he left the table, he looked drunk and unconscious, and was carried to the guest room by Elder Li's family.

At this time, the door of the guest room suddenly opened silently. The small figure crept in.

The figure tiptoed to Wang Dafu's side, gently pushed Wang Dafu twice, and continued to shout softly: "Mayor ~~, Mayor ~~" Wang Dafu suddenly turned over and lay down, startling the figure, but Wang Dafu followed with his mouth wide open, snoring~~purring~~ sleeping more soundly!

The figure silently wiped the cold sweat from his head in the dark, and waited for a while to confirm that Wang Dafu had not woken up, and then walked over and groped on Wang Dafu.

The black shadow carefully touched Wang Dafu's body for a moment, and groped under his pillow for a while, and finally found what he was looking for, Wang Dafu's mayor's seal!

Standing up contentedly, although he couldn't see his five fingers in the room, the black shadow's eyes that seemed to be spraying flames still revealed the excitement in his heart at this time!

The black shadow gently pushed open the window to let the moonlight shine in, then took out a piece of administrative briefcase dedicated to Green Willow Town, turned around and lay on the table in the guest room, and began to write.

In a moment, the black shadow wrote the official document, and then held up the mayor's seal he had just touched, and covered it on the official document in a dignified manner, after covering it, the black shadow stood up straight, took a gentle breath, and the whole person relaxed.

At this time, a voice suddenly sounded behind the black shadow: "It's hard work, do you want to drink a glass of water and rest?" ”

The black shadow didn't pay attention for a while, and said casually: "Thank you, no need, I'll get on the boat for a while and drink slowly~~" Speaking of this, he suddenly reacted, like a frightened rabbit, jumped up all of a sudden, turned around and looked behind him. Wang Dafu sat on the bed for a long time, and beckoned to the black shadow, but his face hidden in the dark was not as pleasant as his movements, but was covered with frost and lit the oil lamp, and the truth of the black shadow's identity was revealed.

Wang Dafu cleaned up and sat on the bed, without the slightest expression on his face, just looking at Elder Li wordlessly.

Elder Li stood in front of the table with his head bowed, but the eldest person gave people the feeling of being like a child who had done something wrong!

The two were silent for a moment, and in the end, Elder Li mustered up the courage and said, "Town~~Mayor~~ You haven't slept yet~~"

Wang Dafu still didn't have the slightest expression on his face, but said flatly: "I haven't ...... yet"

Elder Li swallowed a mouthful of spit and continued: "Town~~ Mayor Town, you're not drunk!" ”

Wang Dafu continued to say coldly: "No~~" If you are careful, you will find that when Wang Dafu heard the word "drunk", his eyes flashed.

Elder Li was so overwhelmed by Wang Dafu's breath that he couldn't raise his head, and he didn't speak for a long time, and finally Wang Dafu said coldly: "Elder Li, it's getting late, and you've been tired all day, just go to bed early, and talk about it tomorrow morning!" ”

When Elder Li heard this, he looked at Wang Dafu with some surprise, and immediately nodded and said, "Yes~~Yes~~ It's night, it's indeed night, Mayor Town, you should rest early!" As he spoke, he turned around and hurried out the door.

Wang Dafu watched Elder Li hurriedly walk out, but the expression on his face did not change, but his gaze kept staring at the official paper in Elder Li's hand, unchanged for a long time.

After a while, Wang Dafu stood up, slowly walked to the table, picked up the town mayor seal that Elder Li had forgotten on the table just now, and played with it, but the expression on his face showed that his mind was not on this town mayor seal at all.

Elder Li is the true patriarch of Luliu Town, Wang Dafu's most trusted old subordinate, old courtier, Wang Dafu has always tolerated many of Elder Li's behaviors, for Elder Li's almost child's play-like sailing dream, although Wang Dafu is dissatisfied, but he still gave the greatest possible support, and has never deducted funds!

When Elder Li forcibly went to sea and came back without his consent for the second time, Wang Dafu did not express his dissatisfaction with him too much, after all, the reason why Elder Li was able to leave that time was entirely because Wang Dafu made a clerical error and wrote the wrong order, so he did not blame Elder Li!

For a long time, although Wang Dafu can be called ruthless, he takes good care of the partners he identifies, but Elder Li's behavior this time deliberately drunk Wang Dafu, stole the mayor's seal, and issued the mayor's order under his false name Although Elder Li has no malicious intentions, just to be able to sail smoothly, but this behavior is really ......

"Hope ......" looked at the crescent moon outside the window with blank eyes, and the chill on Wang Dafu's face deepened.

The chill suddenly rose in Greenwillow Town, and it was also changing in several other places.

Tang Empire, Tang Capital, Great Prince's Mansion

Although the night was dark, Li Jiancheng, the eldest prince of the Tang Empire, was still sitting in the study with a gloomy face, and several of his henchmen stood in front of him.

"You say~~ Brother Shimin Emperor...... A big victory in Xiangyang City? ”

"Hmm~~ His Royal Highness the Great Prince, in fact, the second prince can't be regarded as a great victory, he just repelled the army of the four princes of the Yuanjiang Empire who dragged mines......"

Tang Empire, Tang Capital, Three Princes' Mansion

"That's enough! With the power of a government to repel a country's army, such a record is not a great victory! ”

"Your Royal Highness the Third Prince, even if this is the case, your military exploits far exceed those of the Second Prince! You don't have to worry about it! ”

"Stupid! Don't you understand? He's my second brother! He is Li Shimin, the king of Qin! Even if you don't make an inch! The name itself is already worth worrying about...... Well~~ If you really don't make an inch, maybe it's even more worth worrying about......"

The original Song Yue and Yuan Xinjiang borders Xiongcheng, Xiangyang, the capital of the city

Xiangyang Taishou Lu Wende looked at the second prince of the Tang Empire in front of him with a face full of ecstasy, and confirmed again: "Second prince! You really repelled the army of Mongol Tatars! ”

"Yes!; Lu Taishou, I don't know if you are willing to join our Tang Empire now? ”

"Willing~~Willing~~Willing~~ How could I not want to!"

On this night, the situation changed......
