feast

......
The most beautiful scene of that life is to meet you!
———————————————————— "Vegetarian"
......
Growing up in a deep boudoir compound, even if you enjoy endless glory and wealth, so what. What's the use of not getting a person's heart. What's the use of not being free?
So this woman named Susu knelt down in front of Nanqi King Zhurong and asked for only one thing:
"Please the queen of heaven, it will be fulfilled!"
These simple five words soon spread all over the big and small corners of Nanqi Prefecture.
Soon let everyone know how this Changling County Lord fell in love with the general who was both civil and military.
All these stories have to start with that banquet.
......
General Jiang Heng, born as a champion in civil and military affairs.
If you don't want all the official positions rewarded by the imperial court, you will kill the generals. Led the cavalry of 800 starry nights to support the three frontier cities where the war broke out again.
With power and prestige, he repelled the attack of the demon clan with his strength.
It is even more to regain the lost ground and welcome back General Wu Mu......
All of this made everyone in Nanqi Prefecture curious about this young man who appeared out of thin air that year.
Only then did they realize that behind this prestige was actually a young man with a disability.
Those limping legs, walking on the road, someone will look at him more.
However, he will not be remembered.
Only when he is at the top of the ladder can people know what a terrifying existence this guy is.
For the Nanqi Prefecture Mansion, those unmarried daughters.
This Jiang Heng is undoubtedly the best choice.
But how do you meet him?
This dragon is a guy who doesn't see the head but doesn't see the end.
Finally, Su Suda, the lord of Changling County, heard that Jiang Heng had been invited by his cousin Qi Wang Huaiwu to participate in his banquet.
For that day, the county lord of Changling prepared for seven days and seven nights.
I finally met the man at the banquet......
Just look at him at the first glance, is this guy really the famous general?
The ragged clothes that even a beggar might not wear, the ordinary bamboo stick in his hand that was worn empty, accompanied by his slanted figure on the left and right.
He walked into the main hall of the Qi Palace, which was also the banquet.
When he entered, in the main hall, except for King Huaiwu of Qi and King Huaiyu of Chu, all the ministers of civil and military affairs stood up.
This man, who holds the command of all the armies in the Nanqi Prefecture Mansion, is qualified enough for all of them to bow to him.
That's the strength, that's why he stood there with such a straight back. In addition to returning the salute, Huaiwu, the king of Lianqi, followed by Huaiyu, the king of Chu, also got up to greet him.
In this kind of posture, except for Nanqi King Zhurong, the county lord of Changling has never seen anyone with such a big face.
"Before, my father and brother were in a big funeral, and I couldn't give the general a celebration wine!" Qi Wang Huaiwu said apologetically: "I must drink a few more glasses today." Please take a seat!"
And the position arranged by Jiang Heng is to the left of King Huaiwu of Qi, second only to the position of King Huaiwu of Qi, and even one level higher than Huaiyu of Chu.
Jiang Heng looked at the side, looking indifferent to King Huaiyu of Chu.
People who are very good at disguise often represent forbearance.
This kind of forbearance is not an overnight thing.
After Jiang Heng sat down, King Huaiwu of Qi deliberately asked, "Has the military advisor arrived?"
The subordinate replied, "The military advisor said that he was unwell!"
King Qi Huaiwu said, "Isn't it good?"
Jiang Heng knew that he had deliberately said this to himself, and then said: "Guo Junshi's body has not fully recovered, and during the recuperation period, it is best not to take him with us when we drink." After all, it's not easy for his body bones to be treated to such an extent!"
"With the great general's miraculous hands, you will definitely be able to heal sooner or later!" Qi Wang Huaiwu immediately raised his glass to Jiang Heng: "Come, everyone raise a glass to congratulate the general on his triumphant return!"
......
Su Su, the county lord of Changling, who was hiding in the back, tiptoed to watch the movement inside.
She knew that her cousin Qi Wang Huaiwu invited Jiang Heng to a banquet this time, which meant that he wanted him to heal his injuries.
I just don't know if this Jiang Heng is really as deep as rumored?
She was curious......
Just when the banquet gradually entered the focus in the staggered gold and silver cups.
Su Su thought to herself: If Jiang Heng doesn't treat his cousin Qi Wang Huaiwu's injuries, then wouldn't the two of them turn their faces? According to the character of his cousin Qi Wang Huaiwu, it is very likely that they will turn their faces.
No way!
Su Su said to herself: "If the two of them turn their faces so quickly, then wouldn't it be useless for her to ask Jiang Heng for advice!"
She watched as a group of dancing girls were about to pass by her at the summoning of King Huaiwu of Qi and enter the main hall. She immediately drank the dancing girls: "Stop me!"
Then, after tidying up his clothes, he stepped into the house with small steps.
"I've seen two brothers, I've seen all the generals, my lord!"
Su Su bowed to King Huaiwu of Qi.
That Qi Wang Huaiwu looked at her in surprise: "Why did you come in?"
Su Suyan said: "Sister, I also know a little about singing and dancing, why don't you let my sister dance a song?"
Just when King Huaiwu of Qi was about to say 'nonsense' in his mouth, Huaiyu, the king of Chu, had already spoken: "Third brother, let this girl come." Otherwise, she should sue her mother!"
Qi Wang Huaiwu looked at his cousin helplessly, and waved his hand: "Hurry up and finish jumping, hurry down." ”
At this time, Na Susu turned to look at Jiang Heng: "I have heard that the general is both civil and military, and he is a generation of musicians, I wonder if the general can sing a song for the little girl?"
Jiang Heng stared curiously at this Changling County Lord, Su Su.
I didn't speak for a long time.
Just when King Huaiwu of Qi wanted to rush Su Su down because he felt that the atmosphere was embarrassing, Jiang Heng waved his hand, and then said to Su Suyan: "Yes!
Su Su was overjoyed: "It's best to have a song that hasn't been circulated in the market yet, and the little girl likes fresh things the most." ”
Jiang Heng smiled faintly, his chin bowed, and the confidence in his eyes seemed to have lyrics and songs.
With the wave of his palm, the emerald bamboo stick flew to his hand and stopped. Seven more glasses with different quantities of wine came to his other hand.
The bamboo stick was like a flute, and under the press of his fingers, it slowly sounded the tone, but it was not blown with his mouth.
In his other hand, he brought a chopstick and tapped it gently, the cup containing the drink.
With the tone, it gradually spread throughout the main hall of the Qi Palace.
The Changling County Lord had already put on a posture and danced slowly.
And the sound of that tone continued to spread all over the hall, flying out of the Qi Palace, and into the streets and alleys. Followed by the words in Jiang Heng's mouth, he began to sing slowly:
"Once, now, past, never ......again"
