Chapter Fifty-Eight: Ju Wentai Goes to the Banquet

Zhang Zheng was busy in the kitchen for nearly an hour.

Chen Yu sent someone to report that Ju Wentai's car had arrived at the gate of the courtyard.

It just so happened that Zhang Zheng also sprinkled the pepper in his hand into the finale of the big dish, 'beef soup'. 'In a casserole.

As for the cow, of course, it was 'fell to death' on his own Zhuangzi.

Zhang Zheng was very sad when he learned of this, and sincerely mourned for the cow for three minutes.

Then he sent someone to the Weinan County Ya to pay a fine of two hundred copper coins to the official.

Zhang Zheng thought about such a big cow, and it was a pity to dig a pit and bury it like this, it was simply a tyrannical thing.

So he made a painful decision to let it shine for the Guogong Mansion one last time.

Entering the belly of the lord of a country is not considered to have insulted the identity of this cow.

At this time, Ju Wentai had not yet accepted Li Shimin's canonization.

Therefore, the honor guard played was one less pair of axes than the prince's honor guard.

The front army opened the way with dozens of cavalry led by Zhang Huan, the general of the Gaochang Left Guard.

In the middle is Ju Wentai's infantry, and there are dozens of cavalry in the rear army.

Although it is not as exaggerated as the dust of the yellow sand mat road, it is the master of a country after all.

Besides, at this time in Chang'an, you can't be too embarrassed by the country, so although the honor guard is less than half of it, the pomp is not small at all.

Zhang Zheng ordered Liu Erda, the steward of the other courtyard, to open the middle door to welcome the Luan driver of the lord of Gaochang.

In front of Luan's drive to the courtyard, Zhang Huan stood up, turned over and dismounted, trotted to Ju Wentai's chariot and waited.

The cavalry of the front army automatically spread out on both sides to create a road that could be passed on foot, and they did not dismount, but sat on their horses with their heads held high.

Zhang Zheng had already gone to the front yard to wait, and at this moment, seeing that Ju Wentailuan had arrived, he stepped out of the door.

"Hahahaha, the lord of the country is coming, there is a loss of welcome, there is a loss of welcome."

Zhang Zheng didn't know why, he always felt that he didn't laugh at this long list hahahaha, and he couldn't show his heroic feeling.

Maybe he was infected by Cheng Biting Jin.

Ju Wentai saw Zhang Zheng coming out, and it was not good to sit on the Luan car.

His face changed, and he smiled heartily.

"Hahahaha, Zhang County is polite, to be a guest at the Guogong Mansion, Xiao Wang is very honored, it is an honor to be a guest, it is an honor to be ......."

"Hahahaha, the lord of the country is coming, the humble house is shining, ...... is shining."

Hearing this, Zhang Zheng was again hahaha.

"Zhang Xiannan said and laughed, and said that he laughed."

The two met first for a while, hahaha, and then hehehe, as if the past did not exist.

The two of them raised their arms, and it was a hypocritical politeness to decide who stepped into the threshold first.

"The lord of the country turned out to be a guest, please go into the humble house and take a rest."

Zhang Zheng and Ju Wentai put their arms together and stretched out their other hand to guide Ju Wentai.

"Zhang Xiannan, please first."

Ju Wentai said politely.

"It's still the lord of the country who invites you first."

Zhang Zheng looked at the hearty smile on Ju Wentai's face, like a big brother next door.

There was also a playful smile on his face, this lord of the country was a little too polite.

"Oh hehe, together, together."

Ju Wentai didn't know why Zhang Zheng suddenly showed such a strange smile on his face, and was stared at by Zhang Zheng so that his back was hairy, and he took the lead in stepping into the wide open middle door.

How did he know that in Zhang Zheng's mind, Ju Wentai was a guest, how could a guest be so polite.

And there are also guests with hatred.

And Ju Wentai thought that it was the etiquette of the Tang Dynasty to be polite to each other before entering the door, after all, those officials of the Tang Rites Department were much more polite than Zhang Zheng.

If you want to talk about Ju Wentai, since I knew that the newspaper was made by Zhang Zheng.

A strong curiosity arose about the boy.

Under Zhang Huan's deliberate inquiry, what Zhang Zheng did was put on Ju Wentai's study in the Sifang Pavilion.

The more I learned, the more frightened I became.

I wanted to find an opportunity to resolve the previous grievances with this overly young county man.

But he never thought that Zhang Zheng would take the initiative to send someone to invite him to the banquet.

Not to mention that Zhang Zheng is in the name of the Guogong Mansion, it is in his private name.

Ju Wentai will also come to meet this young man who is constantly surprising him.

One is curious about how Zhang Zheng is going to get through this hurdle, as the head of a country, Ju Wentai is by no means ordinary in terms of vision or knowledge.

How could he not know that Zhang Zheng was already nine deaths at this time, he was very curious about how this son would break the game.

The second is to befriend Zhang Zheng, according to the various signs he inquired, this son is quite valued by His Majesty the Tang Emperor, as long as he can successfully pass this pass, seeing that the bright future is promising, befriending Zhang Zheng is only good for him.

Ju Wentai entered the front hall to rest for a while, and Zhang Zheng stretched out his hand to lead Ju Wentai to the banquet site.

Zhang Zheng did not arrange the banquet in the front hall of the other courtyard.

Instead, a shaded pavilion has already been erected on the edge of the Wei River in the east of the courtyard, surrounded by a mosquito net surrounded by transparent gauze.

The sandalwood in the pavilion is curling, and the gentle water surface of the Wei River is in full view.

There are cardamom maids serving each other outside the pavilion, although the environment is simple, there is also quite an elegant image of drinking and watching the river

Zhang Zheng and Ju Wentai stepped into the pavilion together.

Suddenly, a chill came to my face.

Ju Wentai was curious, and looked at the place where this coolness came from, only to see a bucket of ice cubes placed in each of the four corners of the pavilion.

Zhang Zheng was the first to speak: "The ancients often said that the benevolent man enjoys the mountain, and the wise man enjoys the water.

He is a layman, but a benevolent and wise monarch like the lord of the country should like this scenery of mountains and rivers.

This place is simple, and I ask the lord of the country not to dislike it. ”

"Where, where. Xiao Wang turned into a foreigner, this time I was fortunate to see the Tang Dynasty scenery is already a blessing, only to feel that the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers is in front of me, how can there be a little shabby. Zhang Xiannan laughed. ”

Ju Wentai's face remained unchanged, and he said this, but he was quite shocked in his heart, and he secretly became vigilant.

If Zhang Zheng invited him to the banquet on an impromptu basis, then being able to arrange all this in such a short period of time is enough to show that this son is extraordinary.

If it has been planned for a long time, then what is Zhang Zheng plotting?

"Please, my lord."

"Zhang Xiannan, please."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and entered the pavilion together.

Ju Wentai sat in the main seat, and Zhang Zheng sat in the second seat.

In addition to the two of them, Zhang Huan and Chen Yu, the leaders of the guards.

There is only Zhang Zheng's personal little maid green dress.

With today's main dishes, they were served one by one by the servants in the other courtyard.

Zhang Zheng got up and poured a glass of wine for Ju Wentai first, and then filled himself with a glass.

After thinking about it, he poured a cup for Zhang Huan, the head of Ju Wentai's guards.

Ju Wentai looked at Zhang Huancheng and took the wine glass handed over by Zhang Zheng in fear.

did not stop Zhang Zheng's move, but quietly watched Zhang Zheng finish all this with a smile on his face.

Zhang Zheng took the lead in picking up the wine glass and said to Ju Wentai: "Lord of the country, there is a way to show your face to eliminate long-cherished grievances, and smile and sip enmity. On behalf of myself, I would like to apologize for the previous outrageous and unreasonable treatment of General Zhang Huan. ”

Although he apologized to Zhang Huan, Zhang Zheng did not look at Zhang Huan, but drank the wine in the cup in one gulp at Ju Wentai.

He gestured to Ju Wentai with a drop of wine glass.

"The last general will not dare."

Hearing Zhang Zheng say this, Zhang Huan, who was standing behind Ju Wentai, shook his hands in fright, the wine glass fell to the ground, and the wine in the cup was scattered on the ground.

Hurriedly knelt down on one knee, and said guiltily: "Zhang Xian's man has tormented the last general, and the last general will not dare." ”
