Zhao Yan tilted his head and glanced at Master Li with a warm expression.

Master Li pursed his lips, stepped forward to salute Yao Huan, and said softly: "Mrs. Yao, Gongzi Liu is just drinking some sake, listening to me sing a few tunes, and there are only Gongzi, General Zhao and me during the banquet, don't worry about it." ”

She paused, and showed a hint of helplessness: "Liu Gongzi ordered me to come with General Zhao, to accompany you over, and ask the lady to understand my difficulties." ”

As he spoke, his sleeves were slightly raised, as if he was going to pull Yao Huan, but he fell down again and hung his head silently.

Yao Huan was thinking quickly in his mind, and always felt that from the historical materials of later generations, Liu Zhongwu had a good reputation, and his eldest son Liu Xi and youngest son Liu Qi were also like heroes for the country and the people.

Then Liu Xi, if you don't see so many witnesses in broad daylight, what is there to do unwisely?

The Manchu Dynasty civil and military couldn't help but say that the heroine was just the stupid white sweet ancient puppet drama plot that he just opened his mind and thought of.

Mo is too narcissistic, Mo is too narcissistic.

Compared with the girl in front of him, he is also a Pu Liu asset, and whoever Liu Xi wants to look at, it should also be Master Li.

At the same time, thinking that in the future, the art emperor Zhao Ji would develop a sister-brother love affair with Master Li, and today he was going to get close to Master Li and open up the supper channel of the brothel, Yao Huan's curiosity and stammering gradually overshadowed his hesitation.

"Save, save, how can a foolish woman live up to Shaoshuai Liu's kindness, so I'll get it. General Zhao, the teacher girl, I have to leave quickly after a drink, it is not easy for the small people to make a living, and I am still in a hurry to go back to the restaurant to sell pig intestines. ”

Zhao Yanzheng said: "How come, Yao Niangzi keeps her will and is self-reliant, relying on diligence and good craftsmanship to support herself, and the teaching book will be very respectful." If we can hold the border pass, it is not the Great Song Dynasty that guards the country, and the people of the Great Song Dynasty like Yao Niangzi are protected! ”

Ho, in the end, it's the person next to the chief, it seems to be a martial artist, and this set of mouths will come, I'm afraid that I won't lose to those civil officials who were born as scholars.

Master Li seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and smiled at Yao Huan gratefully.

This smile taught Yao Huan to wake up.

Let's just say how she seems to have seen it somewhere, it turns out that there is a clear and alienated look between the supple eyebrows and eyes, but it is not like the singer named Cui Sleeve in the palace of the king of horses.

If you want to come to Kaifeng City, the top singers who serve the princes and nobles, or the private prostitutes who are hidden in the property of the ministers, most of the girls are really a little elegant and morale.

Yao Huan followed Zhao Yan and Master Li and walked to the depths of the courtyard where the scenery changed.

A wooden house with an overall appearance that looks like a meditation room and small wooden work with details but is extremely complex and delicate appears in front of you.

Under the porch at the door, there were two men in regular clothes with solemn faces, with dark faces and heavy weather, they were the knights that Yao Huan had seen, most of them were Liu Xi's personal entourage from the border pass, and they didn't go in to drink, but just waited outside the door.

Master Li raised his wrist lightly and knocked on the hidden door.

"Hmm, come in." Liu Xi, who was inside, responded in a deep voice.

The three of them walked into the house, and Yao Huan immediately looked at Liu Xi.

Liu Xi's eyes are still clear and sharp, his cheeks are not flushed with excessive drinking, and his sitting posture is straight and straight, like the kind of general who listens to the battle arrangements in the big tent of the Chinese army.

It's serious.

Yao Huan breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing Yao Huan, Liu Xi's upright color changed a little, and he bowed and said, "Mrs. Yao, please take a seat." ”

He also beckoned Zhao Yan and Master Li: "You two also sit." In the end of the season, it was autumn, and the wine was cold, so I asked the maid of this family to scald a new pot. ”

Yao Huan sat down at the bottom, and looked at the table out of professional habits.

Four pots of vegetables and one pot of soup, the number is not much, but everything is exquisite like a work of art.

A whole fish roasted in sauce, about the Yellow River carp, but like the braised silver carp head of the classic Huaiyang dish of later generations, the pieces are stacked softly on the plate, apparently the fish bones are removed during cooking.

Yao Huan said in his heart, compared with dismantling fish, dismantling chicken feet is really trivial.

But what caught her eye even more was a pot of crystal dumplings in Cantonese dim sum. In this era, there were no sweet potatoes, and the skin of this dish was about made of mung bean flour, wrapped in a flattened triangular shape, and through the crystal clear skin, you can see the red, green, yellow, brown meat and vegetable filling. The bean skin triangle bun is soaked in the soup to prevent the bean skin from drying out.

Could this be the famous dish of Kaifeng in the Northern Song Dynasty: splendid pockets?

Liu Xi saw Yao Huan looking at the dishes on the table, wanting to cover up and take a closer look, and felt quite interesting.

Oh, Zhao Yan said, this woman is a cook, no wonder.

Just like our soldiers, when they see a delicately crafted sword, they can't help but want to refer to it in detail.

At this time, the maid of Yunshan Xiaozhu came in with a new hot wine.

Master Li got up, took the wine jug, and poured it into the cups of the three people present.

Liu Xi picked up the wine glass and said lightly: "Yao Niangzi, born in the army and grew up in the army, she understands the truth that a hero has ten thousand bones. The husband of the lady is respected very much. I drank this cup under it, and the lady was casual. ”

He said and drank it all.

Zhao Yan on the side sneered in his heart - the tiger father has no dog, this Liu Xi's duplicity, sure enough, like his old man, he came easily, and when he whispered to me, he was obviously a person who was interested in seeing lust, and he was really pretending to be like it at the moment, and look at your blue sky and white days, how to get this little lady in your hands.

Yao Huan took a shallow sip.

Liu Xi frowned slightly, turned to Zhao Yan and said: "General Zhao, Yao Niangzi's husband, is your son in the Huanqing Army, and the military exploits of Hongdecheng's victory are also embedded in your Huanqing Road." What, you don't respect Yao Niangzi for a cup? ”

Zhao Yan was stunned for a moment, and then pounded his head and said: "The young marshal is right, the last general will drink this, and this will drink." ”

He raised the wine glass to his lips, smelled the mellow aroma of the wine, and couldn't help but say to Liu Xi: "Young marshal, how is this Yaoguang wine sent from Zhang Jingluo's mansion?" ”

Liu Xi pursed the corners of his mouth and said with satisfaction: "Then what is there to say, compared to this Yaoguang, the best wine in our Xizhou is also like horse urine." ”

Zhao Yan laughed, revealing a look of "You are finally not serious", opened his bearded mouth, and drank this good wine.

Zhao Yan put the empty cup on the table, and estimated that Liu Xi had let himself come forward to get drunk with the little lady of the Yao family?

So he turned to Yao Huan with a big grin, and was about to open his mouth to let her drink, when he suddenly felt that his tongue seemed to be stiff.

But in a moment, Zhao Yan felt as if his throat was pinched by a hand, and the more he pinched it, the tighter it became, as if he couldn't breathe.

He was also the one who had fought with Zhang Jie on the battlefield of thousands of troops, but at this time, because of the sudden death without warning, he was terrified to the extreme, and instinctively grabbed his neck.

Yao Huan and Master Li, who were sitting beside him, were shocked.

Yao Huan's first thought was that this Zhao Yan was choked like the princess nurse in front of the Horse Mansion that day?

No way, he didn't eat solid fruit, he drank wine.

Master Li was so frightened that he retreated to the corner, stared at a pair of almond eyes, and subconsciously hugged his shoulders with his arms.

Yao Huan pounced, trying to press Zhao Yan's chest.

Liu Xiluo stood up, stretched out his hand to tear Yao Huan away, stared at Zhao Yan and sneered: "General Zhao, isn't the Yaoguang wine with hook kiss juice more delicious?" ”

Zhao Yan tried his best to open his mouth to inhale, and his fire-breathing gaze shot at Liu Xi, but he couldn't speak.

Liu Xi spoke again, this time he didn't sneer, but gritted his teeth with hatred: "This glass of wine is to avenge the soldiers who died in battle on Xihe Road this year." You Xia spy! ”
