It is already dark when everyone comes to the full banquet on Xizhi Street, the whole banquet is the most prestigious restaurant in the capital, the dishes are first-class, the materials are unique, the price is extremely high, not the dignitaries and rich relatives, and they can't afford to consume at all.

Except for Chen Dingxian and Hu Xiyu, everyone came for the first time, and when they arrived at the door of the whole banquet, there were four guys standing on the left and right sides, they were specially to welcome guests, and it was a big pomp at a glance. As for what happens inside, you have to go inside.

Facing one of the eight people who greeted the guests, Chen Dingxian asked angrily, "Is there a private room?".

The eight people in front of them were either officials or family members, and they replied with a smile: "Yes!" I'll lead the son up.", after speaking, he led the way in front.

Entering the hall, there are four large pools, which are full of various fish swimming around, and guests can kill them to order to ensure freshness. The chickens, ducks, geese and game birds in captivity in the backyard are eaten fresh.

There are some people next to me who are choosing what they like, walking back and forth. Yang Wei pointed the picture fresh, and pulled Zhang Yicheng forward, and the two were very excited. Yang Weibiao pointed to a big lobster and called, "I want this lobster.", anyway, I don't pay for it myself, I don't have to think about whether it's expensive or not. Turning back to Tang Tong and shouting, "Brother Tang! Luckily? ”.

Tang Tong just smiled and nodded in agreement. Chen Dingxian smiled secretly in his heart for his carelessness, this is too far from shark fin, and deer tail, that is the real delicacies of the mountains and seas.

"Isn't this Brother Tang? Why did you come to the capital too? A loud voice came.

Tang Tong looked back and saw that it was an old acquaintance, Yin Jichu, who was the chief soldier of Liaodong. If only the two of them were present, Tang Tong would definitely hug him forward and call him Brother Yin, just because the two of them were brothers who had died. But at this time, there was not only Chen Dingxian and others, but also a majestic and extraordinary military attache standing next to him. Tang Tong restrained his excitement and clasped his fists and saluted: "The lower official has seen the chief soldier!" ”.

Yin Jichu is one of the eight generals of Shulu, a silver spear with a copper barrel and a silver spear head, a silver snake spear weighing forty catties, dancing with pure fire, and countless people died under his gun. Two years ago, in an attack, in the ambush of the Rouran cavalry, the enemy was outnumbered, and could only break through with all his might, although he broke out, but was bitten by the Rouran cavalry, chased for more than 100 miles, and the guards around him became fewer and fewer, and the people were trapped and the horses were trapped in the recess of the hill. Seeing that the guards around him fell one by one, there were only three or four left, but there were hundreds of Rouran soldiers. Yin Jichu could only sigh with admiration, never thought that he would die here today.

In desperation, there was a sudden chaos behind the Rouran cavalry, and it was a rain of arrows that shot down a group of Rouran cavalry. A hundred-hundred-person Great Zhou cavalry rushed out, led by three arrows, and the three Rouran cavalry in front fell in response. With the same number of people on both sides, the Rouran cavalry rushed thousands of miles, and it was already the end of the strong. I heard someone shouting: "It's even the arrow Tang Tong!", and I had no intention of fighting, so I scattered back and fled to the north. It was this rescue that was strongly recommended by Yin Jichu to the Ministry of War, plus other military exploits, Tang Tongguan was promoted to the general manager.

Yin Ji Chu's official residence is the second grade, and Tang Tong's positive fifth grade, the difference is not a star and a half, and Tang Tong can be called the elder brother, which shows that the friendship between the two is not shallow. Yin Jichu didn't have an official position, and stepped forward to pat Tang Tong's left shoulder, "This is not in the army, Brother Tang doesn't have to be formal!" ", said and laughed cheerfully. Hurriedly pulled Tang Tong forward, pointed to the majestic military attache and introduced: "This is Chai Jingzhi, the commander of the forbidden army!" ”.

After Yin Jichu's introduction, everyone present was stunned, how could the commander of the forbidden army be seen with their own eyes, and they didn't dare to speak out for a while. Only Hu Xiyu is the exception, just like seeing ordinary people.

Tang Tong immediately waved his hand, "Xiaguan has seen Commander Chai!" ”.

"This is Tang Tong, the commander of the Xuanfu Thousand, who has been saved in the army, he is not an ordinary brave, he has the demeanor of a Confucian general.", Yin Jichu did not forget to introduce.

"Even the arrows Tang Tong is like thunder!" , Chai Jingzhi hugged his fist in return.

"The carving insect skills, how can they be compared with the dragon gatekeeper!" , Tang Tong gave his hand heavily. Then he pointed to the seven behind him, "This is some friends in the next place, today I am the east, why don't you lead Chai together?" ”。

Yin Jichu was willing, so he looked at Chai Jingzhi, it seemed that he had something unspeakable, and he was looking at someone behind Tang Tong, and he didn't respond for a while.

"Brother Tang! I'll go first! At this time, Hu Xiyu suddenly spoke, and turned to leave as he spoke.

"Hu Xian's nephew stays! You and I don't have to affect the relationship between friends.", and then waved his hand at Tang Tong, "I invited General Yin to drink, so we won't bother!" As he spoke, he signaled to Yin Jichu and left first.

Hu Xiyu listened to Chai Jingzhi's words and stopped staying where he was.

Yin Jichu patted Tang Tong again, "You and my brother will find another opportunity to get drunk!" Tang Tong nodded, Yin Jichu smiled and waved to everyone, and followed to chase Chai Jingzhi.

When he came to the Wenjing Yuan private room on the second floor, the guy went down to greet the guests. Each private room has a special waiting for Xiao Er, waiting for eight people to sit down, the tea on the top is also the best Longjing, eight people drink tea first, Xiao Er bowed and asked, "Is that official ordering?"

Tang Tong put down the teacup, "Chen Shao!" We've never been here, so you'll have it!".

When Chen Dingxian saw that he showed his skills, he first picked out the expensive, delicious and characteristic points, and learned the tune of storytelling, "Three fresh shark fins, hanging sheep, steamed deer tails, boiled skin turtle, roasted goose, Jiangmi stuffed duck, stewed duck paws, crystal elbows, crab meat, sunflower balls, mixed belly shreds, assorted tofu.", Chen Dingxian said a lot of things in one breath, even Tang Tong only knew that it was delicious, and he had never eaten it, and he looked back and thought about what he said, and he didn't remember any of them, and he had long forgotten them.

Chen Dingxian asked proudly, "Brother Tang!" Is it enough?".

Tang Tong shook his head, "I haven't remembered any of them, there is also a big lobster, and another sauce of donkey meat, I love this!", Tang Tong turned his head to Mao Zongxie and said, "Brother Mao! You order a few!".

Mao Zongxie was also not polite, "It seems that there are no green vegetables, so there are two of the most seasonal vegetables!", Tang Tong looked at the other five people, "How many do you also order?", the five people shook their heads, not wanting to be embarrassed. Tang Tong looked up and asked, "How many dishes are there?".

That Xiao Er's memory is very good, "Steamed lobster, plus sauce donkey meat and two seasonal vegetables, a total of sixteen dishes.".

Tang Tong looked at everyone and said confidently: "It should be enough to eat, not enough to order!".

The little two didn't forget to sell, but only asked in a whisper: "Do you want someone to wait?", Tang Tong didn't understand, and looked at Chen Dingxian.

Chen Ding hurriedly explained, "I just want the girl to accompany the wine!".

Tang Tong smiled indifferently, waved his hand and said, "Today is a brotherly gathering, no need!".

The little second still didn't give up and said: "We sing this little song very well, and we promise to make all the officials happy.".

Tang Tong started a fire a little impatiently, "Let's go to Sang Rixuan later, waiting for the food to be served!", that Xiao Er looked like a rich master, could it be that he looked away, and went to the kitchen to hand over the recipe with a dry heart.

Chen Dingxian was a little unconfident, "Brother Tang! Will we really go to Sang Ri Xuan later?".

Tang Tong didn't answer, and looked at everyone, "Have you ever been to Sang Rixuan!", except for Chen Dingxian and Hu Xiyu, who didn't squeak, the others shook their heads.

Tang Tong spread his hands and smiled, "I haven't been there either, then let's go and see it!", everyone cheered.

Chen Ding first ordered the signature dish of Quansheng Restaurant, a small half-pillar of incense, and the dishes came up one after another, and asked for ten jars of two catties of Fenjiu.

Tang Tong opened an altar by himself first, "Except for Brother Mao, everyone must drink a jar of wine!" The brothers opened the wine first.", the crowd was stunned when they heard this, and they looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

Tang Tong opened an altar and handed it to Mao Zongxie and said, "Brother Mao! You drink slowly!", after everyone opened the altar, Tang Tong raised the altar, "Brothers! Let's go first!", and took a big sip of the mouth of the altar as he spoke.

Seeing that Tang Tong had opened, everyone couldn't refuse, so they took a sip of the jar no matter how much. Everyone began to eat vegetables, Xiao Er cut the hanging sheep into small pieces, everyone took a bite of it, and it was really enjoyable to eat.

After padding, Chen Ding first picked up the jar, "Brother Tang, I respect you!".

Mao Zongxie saw Chen Dingxian's embarrassment, and stepped forward to stop him, "Don't listen to your big brother Tang, use a small bowl like me!".

Chen Ding looked at Tang Tong first, and Tang Tong waved his hand, "Little Er!" Change a small bowl for everyone, and pour the wine full!", taking advantage of this time, Tang Tong said: "Everyone eats!" Don't waste it!".

After pouring the wine, Tang Tong raised the jar again, "I will finish drinking this jar of wine tonight, and the brothers will also drink it happily, drink!", said and took another big sip.

Everyone toasted Tang Tongjiu, and they all stood up together and said, "Brother Tang! I respect you!", no matter whether Tang Tong drinks or not, he drinks a bowl first, Tang Tong takes three big sips, which is completely the style of a big brother. Tang Tong took a sip of wine and a few pieces of donkey meat in sauce, and drank happily with his brothers.

After three rounds of drinking, except for Mao Zongxie, who was still a little sober among the eight people, the other seven were all drunk. Mao Zongxie wanted to liven up the atmosphere, "Little Er, isn't there a little song to sing?" Call these drunkards to sober up!".

Xiao Er saw that everyone listened to the eldest person's words, and immediately responded, "I'm going to call!", and after a while, a middle-aged man in his forties came in with a little girl of thirteen or fourteen.

The middle-aged man cringed a little and bowed, "Hello officials! What tunes would you like to hear?".

Mao Zongxie comforted elegantly, "Don't be afraid! We're not bad guys, what will you be?".

The middle-aged man replied: "I'm good at the Beijing tune, and it's okay to tune the tune.".

Mao Zongxie, like Tang Tong, came from Shanxi and asked casually; "What about Shanxi Xiaoqu?".

"I can't sing a few songs very well.".

Mao Zongxie smiled disappre一门ly, "It's better than us adults to sing, let's sing!".

The middle-aged man sat down, pulled up the erhu, and the little woman sang ten scenes, singing euphemistically and beautifully, and her voice was crisp and very good. The people who were still toasting and talking all fell silent and listened carefully to the little woman's singing, and even Tang Tong stopped drinking and leaned back in his chair to listen. Since you can go to this kind of occasion, you must be able to calm the table, otherwise you won't eat this bowl of rice. As soon as the song was sung, everyone was fascinated.

Tang Tong suddenly became interested, "Let's have a song of jasmine!", the middle-aged man listened to it, and immediately played the jasmine, the little woman sang very devotedly, her voice was pleasant, the sound was like a warbler's cry, and it was beautiful. Mao Zongxie shook his head incessantly while rubbing his beard when he heard it, indulging in it. The other people also woke up a lot after hearing the wine, Tang Tong stared at the woman, with light makeup and elegant appearance, looking like a small jasper, not beautiful but a little beautiful. This jasmine song is really good, and the people present have not relaxed for a while after singing.

Tang Tong was still squinting his eyes admiring himself, "Let's embroider the purse again!".

The woman sang again, still crisp, the whisper was melodious, Tang Tong was happy, Chen Dingxian's face was full of surprise, Mao Zongxie nodded and was intoxicated, and the others were also addicted.

After the third song was sung, the woman seemed to be waiting for someone to order the song. Tang Tong took out two taels of silver from his body, put it on the table and said, "Sing well!" You can't sing anymore, you see that no one drinks the wine, take the silver and go down!".

Xiao Er immediately came over to get the silver, and when he was about to stuff it on his body, Tang Tong scolded: "This is for the girl, the money for singing the song is counted in the banquet, give it to her!", Tang Tong shouted like this, and the others stared at him, and Xiao Er had to obediently hand over the silver to the girl.

The little woman was very grateful to Tang Tong, and when she came to Tang Tong, she bowed and saluted, "Thank you, official!", Tang Tong just beckoned and motioned her to go down, the little woman bowed her head and stepped back with the middle-aged man and walked out slowly.

After a period of silence, Tang Tong shouted loudly: "Brothers! Come and drink!"...

Another toast, Tang Tong drank a jar of wine, and finally drank most of the remaining half of Mao Zongxie's altar, and drank the remaining two jars of wine with everyone, and he was very sober. Chen Dingxian admired Tang Tong's amount of alcohol very much, everyone drank in the clouds, Yang Weibiao was already chattering endlessly, only Hu Xiyu was still a little sober.

is really drunk and full, Yang Weibiao and Zhang Yicheng hugged each other and kept chattering. Yu Jian and Xiang Guozhen are talking about their hometown, and it seems that they are a little homesick. When Mao Zongxie came back after settling the account, due to drinking too much wine, Yu Jian and Xiang Guozhen, Chen Dingxian and Hu Xiyu also hugged each other, Mao Zongxie also held Tang Tong, and everyone talked all the way and left the whole banquet.
