Chapter 88: Brothers Gather
Wei Lin first went to Kong Mu's house, but there was no one at home, Wei Lin had to go to Zhao Yu's house again, but there was still no one, what was strange? Where can they go in the middle of the night?
Wei Lin had to go to find the next former brother Shan Mingyang, and before he entered the house, he heard the sound of clinking glasses from the house.
"Kong Mu, drink, drink more, be happy tonight, let's not get drunk and not return."
"Come on, drink together, Zhao Yu, you fucking fill the wine glass."
Wei Lin walked in with a voice and asked, "Do you have any of my wine?" ”
The four of them were touching the cup, and when they heard the voice, they all turned around, and they didn't know how to describe Wei Lin's stunned expression, but he was also quite stunned when he saw one person, "Gu Heng?" ”
Gu Heng put down his wine and pounced directly on Wei Lin: "Brother! ”
The other four people also pounced, the six of them hugged each other tightly, and Jiang He's voice choked up: "General Gu said that you are stupid, and I also said that it is good to be stupid, at least there is still a life." ”
"Yes, General Wei, why are you here? Also, you're not stupid. Zhao Yu also burst into tears.
"Stupid, Gu Heng didn't lie to you, he just healed some time ago." Wei Lin's eyes turned red when he saw his former comrades.
"It's good to be healed, sit, sit. Fame, quick, go get another bowl, it's a good day, we people will gather together. Kong Mu was so excited that he didn't know what to say.
"I'll go get it." Shan Mingyang wiped away his tears and went to get the dishes and chopsticks.
"Sit down." Gu Heng pulled Wei Lin to sit down, he had a lot to ask Wei Lin: "Wei Lin, when I rescued you, you were in a coma, and then General Cui took you away, and then the news came that you were stupid, what the hell is going on?" Tell me about it. ”
Wei Lin told Gu Heng about the cause and effect, and Gu Heng said angrily after hearing it: "General Situ died too unjustly, he was dedicated to the country and defending the southern border, but he didn't expect to die in the court dispute like this, Cui Yan's hands." ”
"How did you end up here?" Wei Lin asked.
"I also took the time to come here today, originally to ask Kong Mu, Zhao Yu, Shan Mingyang, and Jiang He to see you together tomorrow morning." Gu Heng held Wei Lin's hand and said indebtedly: "Gu Yun told me that you were locked up in Shenshan Village, but you haven't been able to come to see you, brother, you won't blame me, right?" ”
"How so." Wei Lin thanked his brother for his thoughts, "Since Cui Bo became the general of the southern border, the southern border has become more unstable than before, right?" "General Situ had such a talent to unify the army back then, and the army has always relied on the strength of the country to constantly harass the southern Guanxia, and now that the commander-in-chief has changed, the country of Qiu must not attack the Guanxia more unscrupulously?
Gu Heng is the main general of Nanlinguan Town, how can he have time to get out to see him easily, Wei Lin is already grateful for his heart, not to mention that he also saw his brother himself today, Wei Lin was excited for a long time and couldn't calm down.
"Cui Bo is stupid, he is not worthy of commanding the three armies at all." If it weren't for their veterans, the southern border would have been undefinite.
But what can you do if you are angry? His father was the prime minister of the court, and the emperor's personal will, they could only submit to Cui Bo.
"If it weren't for the people behind us, we really wouldn't want to see that Cui Bo's face." As soon as Gu Heng mentioned Cui Bo, he couldn't wait to kill him to relieve his hatred.
Wei Lin could understand, and held Gu Heng's hand tightly and comforted: "Cui Bo is nothing, only by bringing down Cui Yan can he remove the great harm for this country and the people of Limin." ”
"Wei Lin, do you have an idea?" Wei Lin has always had the most ideas, and Gu Heng listened to Wei Lin.
"You take good care of the frontier, you are a veteran, Cui Bo is arrogant, he can't do anything to you, as for Cui Xiang......" Wei Lin sneered, "The internal court of Pi State has been controlled by Cui Yan, even the emperor can't do anything with him, it will take time to get rid of him, I heard that Steward Cui said that the emperor is already preparing the Qingxiang plan, we just need to wait for the opportunity and help the emperor get rid of Cui Yan in one fell swoop." ”
"Okay." Gu Heng trusted Wei Lin very much, as long as he said it, he believed it, "Speaking of that Cui housekeeper, I didn't expect him to be a secret agent placed by the emperor in Cui's mansion, I always thought he was the Cui family's walking ~ dog, I never gave him a good look, I didn't expect that it was he who saved your brother, and I will see him again in the future, brother, I will thank you well." ”
Wei Lin smiled and said, "Don't get too close to him, lest Cui Bo become suspicious." ”
"I know that." Gu Heng smiled: "I only change my attitude towards him in private, and it won't hinder your big things." ”
Wei Lin patted Gu Heng's shoulder, "With you guarding Nanlin Pass, my brother will be safe this year." ”
"You are idle, brother, I am miserable, Wei Lin, how good it would be if you were in the South Linguan, you are more solid." Gu Heng really didn't want to tell Wei Lin that he was guarding the Nanlin Pass really hard. 52 Literature
He is a fierce general, charging into battle, arranging troops is really not his strong point, he and a few veterans sit together and often say, to say that they are the most capable of taking over General Situ's class, except for Wei Lin, although Wei Lin joined the army a few years later than them, but Wei Lin arranged the troops that even General Situ gave a thumbs up, so General Situ has always taken Wei Lin with him as his deputy general, not to mention the high martial arts, which time is not the lowest casualty of the two armies? The generals will not be able to accept it.
"I can't make my recovery public, brother, thank you." Wei Lin didn't want to return to the barracks and guard the peace of the border with his brothers, but if he appeared in front of the public, then Cui Xiang would definitely jump over the wall and kill the emperor.
"Understood." No matter how much Gu Heng wants to defend Lin, it's not that he can't see the reality clearly, Cui Yan dares to transfer 20,000 Praetorian Guards to besiege General Situ's 3,000 men, what else can't he do?
Fortunately, Wei Lin was rescued by him, and he couldn't let Wei Lin be in danger anymore.
"Good brother, my brother is happy to see you alive, come, drink." Gu Heng poured a bowl of wine for Wei Lin, and when he picked up the wine, he wanted to salute Wei Lin.
Wei Lin was not ambiguous, poured a large bowl of wine into his stomach, and wiped his mouth when he finished, "I haven't drunk with Brother Gu for more than a year, I really miss it." ”
"In the future, if you want to drink, come to me." Shan Mingyang also took a bowl to toast, "Kong Mu Zhao and I recited Jiang He, but we got together to drink if we had nothing to do." ”
"Yes, in the future, General Gu and General Wei will come to us if they want to sit down and drink together, although we are now ordinary people and don't have much money on us, but the three of us can still afford to invite your two brothers to drink." Kong Mu also drank the wine in the bowl happily.
Wei Lin said with a smile: "Brother Gu can drink at any time in the future." ”
"Why?" Gu Heng didn't understand.
"Splendid Silk Village, my lady has come down, otherwise why do you think I came to find Kong Mu and the four of them?" What Wei Lin said is already obvious.
"You said my brother and sister are here too? Still have a shop in town? No, it costs a lot of silver to put down the splendid silk village, and your previous military rings have been donated to the families of those brothers who died in battle, and your brothers and sisters have so much money to buy such a big store? "He has seen the splendid silk village, the shop is very large, if the store is plated, it will not be possible without three thousand taels of silver.
What is Wei Lin's family like, others don't know him, Gu Heng knows, although the family doesn't rely on his military sound, but the family is not rich, where did the three thousand taels of silver come from?
"Don't hide it from my brother, I robbed the money of Heyuan's family." Wei Lin had nothing to hide from his brother.
"It's good." Gu Heng slapped the table, "Outside of the He, the border front is tight, and it won't cost a tael of silver, if it wasn't for General Situ to stop it, my brothers would have robbed it a long time ago." ”
"Didn't he just rely on his brother to be an official under Cui Xiang's hands, and do whatever he wanted? If General Situ hadn't wanted to cause trouble, he would have pacified Heyuanwai's family a long time ago. "A businessman who doesn't even support his own country should have died a long time ago, Shan Mingyang wanted to tell the three Kong Mu brothers a few days ago that they would rob the He family one day, but they didn't expect General Wei to come first.
"I heard that Heyuanwai's daughter is going to marry Cui Xiangyi's distant relative, if this kind of person climbs Cui Xiang, maybe he will be more arrogant." The reason why Jiang He retired was naturally inseparable from Heyuan.
His four brothers levied money and grain to secure the border, when they were levied to Heyuan's house, the four brothers couldn't help but move, and they were complained to General Situ by this person, General Situ beat them with twenty military sticks in order to give the people an explanation, they were very unconvinced, and they didn't understand why General Situ was afraid of this Heyuan, so he was so angry that he retired, or General Wei said that General Situ was also forced to do so, the court was complicated, and if the general on the edge of the town did not strictly ban the army, it was difficult to ensure that the court would not be impeached.
But what if General Situ endured it? In the end, he was not killed by Cui Yan.
"It doesn't matter who he marries with, this kind of person has no backing, and then he will have his own hardships." Kong Mu also hated the twenty military sticks that were punished by General Situ when Heyuan harmed them, but the four of them were young and vigorous back then, even if General Wei explained the reason to him, it was not easy for them to say anything back.
"So you came to invite the four of them to your shop to help your brother and sister open a store? But the four of them are big bosses, how can they do a woman's silk business? "It's not that Gu Heng wants to ridicule these four brothers, it's really that these four people are used to being soldiers, and they go to do things for their younger brothers and sisters, so it's better to take him away and guard the South Linguan.
"That's not necessarily, although we can't help my sister-in-law open a store, it's good to do some chores and help do some rough work." Shan Mingyang said with a smile.
"That's it, Mrs. Sister-in-law is so delicate, and General Wei can't help by her side now, our fourth brother is different, we can help Mrs. Sister-in-law do heavy work." Zhao Yu is willing to go to the store to do things.
Gu Heng saw that they were going to the store one by one to do chores, so he knew what they were thinking, "You guys, don't you just want to get together with your sister-in-law and let her match you with a daughter-in-law?" Wei Lin, did you hear your brother and sister say that she invited a few girls in the store? Is it enough for these four hungry wolves? ”
Wei Lin smiled: "Enough, I'm afraid that one of them will be able to marry several by then." ”
"Then I'll go to my brother's and sister's shop too." Gu Heng dragged Wei Lin and smiled.
Wei Lin saw him playful and laughed at him: "Don't you have a wife and children at home?" ”
"Can't I marry another concubine?"
"Hahaha......" The six men laughed at the mention of women, and felt like they were back to the time when they were drinking and chatting in the barracks.
