Zhao Xuanyi picked up a piece of chicken and put it in Xu Yuchan's bowl, "Mother, you eat!" "This sentence is very smooth.

"Oops! Good! Xu Yuchan said with a smile.

Zhao Mingqing looked at Shen Wei, his face full of seriousness, "Why did Tatar suddenly come this time?" What can be found? ”

Shen Wei shook his head, "The subordinates didn't see anything, but this matter was very strange from beginning to end, the Tatars suddenly came, and they suddenly withdrew their troops, and?" Shen Wei looked left and right, but didn't see any other subordinates, so he lowered his voice and said, "General Li received a secret order, so he returned to Beijing!" ”

"Oh! I see! It looks like the capital is going to be too peaceful! Zhao Mingqing said with a sad face.

Zhao Xuanyi doesn't care about this, it has nothing to do with himself, now it's just to eat and drink enough, and then find a way to start some business, at least I can't let this family continue to be so poor, second elder, since I'm back, you just wait to enjoy the blessings!

"Also, when the young master and I were defending the city, there was a soldier who didn't know where it came from, and he kept tricking the young master to retreat, although the situation was very bad at the time, but I always felt that this person seemed to be deliberate!" Shen Wei said firmly.

After Zhao Mingqing heard this, a confident expression appeared on his face, "This group of guys still can't help it, and they plan to find a handle from my son, but it's a pity!" Let them down! Hahaha! "Now how does Zhao Mingqing see how his second son is pleasing to the eye!

Shen Wei rolled his eyes, covered his mouth with his hand, and whispered in Zhao Mingqing's ear, "General Li attaches great importance to the young master now, what does he want to ......?" ”

Zhao Mingqing immediately made a pause gesture and gave Shen Wei a look, "I have received Brother Li's letter before, and he wrote it very clearly in the letter!" ”

After Shen Wei heard this, he frowned, "Master, do you think about it?" ”

Zhao Mingqing sighed, "This matter still needs to be considered in the long run, don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry, I'm happy to pick up the wind for my son today!" Zhao Mingqing raised his glass!

Zhao Xuanyi sandwiched another piece of fish meat for Zhao Mingqing, "Dad, eat fish!" ”

"Good, good!" Zhao Mingqing smiled and agreed!

A few people were eating, and suddenly a man walked in from outside, the man was very handsome, a little similar to Zhao Xuanyi, wearing a dark blue robe, wearing a pair of black court boots on his feet, holding an oiled paper bag in his left hand, and a small jar of wine in his right hand!

After coming in, I saw everyone smiling, "Second brother, you're back!" ”

Shen Wei hurriedly stood up and clasped his fists with both hands, "Young Master, long time no see!" ”

The person who came was none other than Zhao Xuanli, the eldest young master of the Zhao family! Among the current Liupin Lang of the Ministry of War, Zhao Xuanyi saw that this person looked so similar to himself, and with Shen Wei's words, he knew that this was Zhao Xuanli!

Zhao Xuanyi stood up, "Big brother, long time no see!" ”

Zhao Xuanli put the things in his hand on the table and patted Zhao Xuanyi's shoulder, "Well, it's strong, it's also dark!" ”

Zhao Mingqing smiled and waved his hand, "Sit down, let's have a good meal as a family today!" ”

"Yes!" Zhao Xuanli sat next to Zhao Xuanyi, Xu Yuchan opened the oiled paper bag that Zhao Xuanli brought back, and inside was about a pound of cooked mutton, which was considered to add a dish to the table!

Zhao Xuanli looked at Zhao Xuanyi, and the smile on his face never disappeared, "Brother, it's hard to go out this time!" ”

"It's done!" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile, Xin Dao This person looks very kind, but how do you feel that this person is a little special? How can a simple sentence sound so unusual?

"Oh, the border was in an emergency a while ago, I'm afraid our mother is frightened, and I'm worried about you every day!" Zhao Xuanli said with a smile.

Zhao Xuanyi heard it and nodded, "Let my mother worry!" ”

Zhao Xuanli raised his glass, "It's good to come back, come, let's have a drink together!" ”

"Good!" Zhao Xuanyi also raised his glass!

The banquet ended in a cheerful but awkward atmosphere, Zhao Xuanyi returned to his room, came in and saw that there was nothing else except a bed and a wardrobe, Zhao Xuanyi smiled, this is like the home of a third-grade official? What an eye-opener!

And this is Shen Wei pushing open the door and walking in, holding a pair of futons in his hand, "Young master, this is what Madame prepared for you, it's all new!" "After speaking, lay the futon for Zhao Xuanyi!

Zhao Xuanyi looked at Shen Wei, "Brother Shen, is my father just such a house?" Although Zhao Xuanyi knew that his question might be meaningless, he was still very curious!

Shen Wei looked at Zhao Xuanyi, knowing that he was very unfamiliar with all this, and smiled lightly, "Young master, our master has no mansion at all!" Just this house, it's all rented! Don't look at this mansion is very dilapidated, but in the capital, it takes a thousand taels of silver to buy it! ”

"What? Just this broken yard still costs a thousand taels of silver? Zhao Xuanyi asked in surprise, he thought that a few dozen taels would be enough at most a hundred taels, but he didn't expect it to be so expensive? Did the Ming Dynasty start to have real estate?

Shen Wei saw Zhao Xuanyi so surprised, and smiled happily, "There are tens of thousands of mansions in Ande, and the poor people in the world are happy!" That's it in the capital! You should take a good rest first, you must be tired after walking for so many days, right? ”

"Done!" Zhao Xuanyi's body is extremely sore, and he just wants to take a good rest!

And what Zhao Xuanyi didn't know was that he was asleep, but Zhao Mingqing didn't sleep, seeing that it was almost night, Zhao Mingqing found Shen Wei, "Shen Wei, go out with me!" ”

"Yes, sir!" Shen Wei didn't shirk it, and followed Zhao Mingqing out of the house together!

The two came to the market, Zhao Mingqing bought a roast chicken and a fish, and let Shen Wei take it, Shen Wei knew what Zhao Mingqing was going to do at a glance, and he didn't speak, quietly followed behind!

The two came to the door of a house, only to see a majestic stone lion on the left and right of the door, the ground is bluestone steps, there are four large pillars painted red at the door, and the black gate is full of golden copper nails, which looks rich and luxurious!

There is a wooden plaque above the gate, and there are two large gold lacquer characters on it [Li Mansion] There are eight soldiers with weapons standing at the door, they are looking ahead, they look very serious, and they are very majestic and handsome in golden armor, this is not anywhere else, it is Li Yukun's General's Mansion!

The guards standing guard at the door saw Zhao Mingqing and hurriedly ran over, although Zhao Mingqing was dressed very simply, but the relationship between Zhao Mingqing and Li Yukun was notoriously good, and the guards ran over and hugged their fists and saluted, "It's Lord Li who is here!" ”

Zhao Mingqing smiled slightly, "Please report that Zhao Mingqing came to visit!" ”

"Yes! Wait a minute, I'll go in and report the news!" "The guards didn't dare to slack off, and ran inside like flying in!

It didn't take long to hear a burst of laughter inside, Li Yukun walked out with Li Hanyan and Li Hanrui, and was very happy to see Zhao Mingqing, "Virtuous brother!" I want to be a brother! ”

Zhao Mingqing also hurriedly walked over, the two of them held their four big hands together, their eyes were red with excitement, but they couldn't say anything special, the two looked at each other for a long time, and finally looked up and laughed!

"Brother Li, you haven't seen the old man at all!" Zhao Mingqing said with a smile.

"Brother Xian is still in style!" Li Yukun said with a smile.

Li Hanrui and Li Hanyan walked over, bowed their heads and saluted, "I've seen Zhao Shibo!" ”

"Good, good! Please get up, please get up! Zhao Mingqing looked at the two people, especially Li Hanyan, although the little girl doesn't like red clothes and loves arms, but she definitely looks like she can handle it, her face is full of evil spirit, and she is majestic, Zhao Mingqing is very satisfied after seeing it!

"Brother Xian, let's go in and talk!" Li Yukun took Zhao Mingqing's hand, and a group of people walked into the Li Mansion!

After coming to the living room, I saw that Li Yukun's wife Liu Wuxia had already prepared hot tea, and when she saw Zhao Mingqing, she greeted warmly, "It's Lord Zhao who is here!" ”

Zhao Mingqing hurriedly saluted: "Hello sister-in-law!" ”

"Sit down, sit down, don't be polite!" Liu Wuxia said with a smile.

Li Yukun saw the chicken and fish in Shen Wei's hand, and smiled, "Brother Xian still understands me, I have been outside for many years, I just think about this bite at home, come on, take it down and cook it quickly, I haven't seen Brother Xian for a long time, I want to get drunk today!" ”

"Yes!" The rest of the family took everything down!

Li Yukun turned his head to look at Li Hanyan, "Han Yan, take your mother back to the backyard to rest, I will drink with your uncle for a while, don't disturb you!" ”

"Yes!" Li Hanyan naturally knew that they were not simply drinking together, there must be other things, and they helped their mother and relatives to leave.

There is not much time, the banquet is set, there are only three people on the table, Zhao Mingqing, Li Yukun and Li Hanrui, but Li Hanrui is here to serve today, although he can serve on the table, but he does not dare to be presumptuous, he does not drink much, and the service is in place! And Shen Wei was standing outside the door, not even qualified to enter the hall!

Zhao Mingqing saw that there was no one else, so he spoke, "Big brother came back this time, did the saint agree?" ”

Li Yukun never hid it from Zhao Mingqing, the two of them were as good as one person, and when he heard Zhao Mingqing's words, his face was full of sadness, "It was the eldest princess who asked me to come back!" ”

"Oh? Is this what happened? Zhao Mingqing asked.

"The situation is unclear now, but according to the meaning of the eldest princess, this time the Tatars are coming, it must be someone in the capital who is secretly fueling the trouble, as for who it is? No clue yet! Li Yukun said this, raised his wine glass and took a sip of stuffy wine!

Zhao Mingqing also frowned, "This kind of thing is not allowed to be investigated by insiders, what are you doing when you transfer your brother back from so far away?" You are leading troops to fight, and you are not opening a court to judge the case, this is unreasonable! ”

Li Yukun looked at Zhao Mingqing, "This is what I am most afraid of, now the Jingshi is calm on the surface, but the internal forces are already in chaos, several princes are now full-fledged, each has their own party, what I am afraid of is that the saint asked me to come back in order to suppress the Jingshi!" ”

When Zhao Mingqing heard this, his eyes widened, and he said in his heart, "Is this saint a person who has no trust around him?" That's why you transferred Li Yukun back? That's a problem!

"Hey. Brother Xian, what is the current situation in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies? Li Yukun asked.

Zhao Mingqing flicked his sleeves annoyedly, "Don't mention it, the current Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies is an idle pigsty, and the relationship between the people in it is like a meeting point of the major forces, no one dares to speak, let alone do things casually, they are all busy climbing relationships, pulling relatives, and not doing anything serious, I think the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies has no glory in the past!" ”

Li Yukun sighed: "It's a pity! It's a pity that this is the place we all dreamed of going, but now it has become so unbearable, it's time for this capital to tidy up! ”

"I have more than enough heart, but not enough power!" Zhao Mingqing said this sentence very disappointed!

Li Yukun patted Zhao Mingqing on the shoulder, "Brother Xian, I have also heard about you, if there is no honest and honest gentleman like you in the government and the opposition, I am afraid that this Jingshi will have already messed up, before you were humiliated because of your loneliness, and now that the eldest brother is back, I think who would dare to bully you?" Li Yukun shouted with a proud face.

Zhao Mingqing grabbed Li Yukun's hand, "Big brother praised it falsely, it's just that he can't get used to seeing the enclosure of high-ranking officials and the exploitation of dignitaries, and he has the heart to criticize it!" ”

Li Yukun nodded, "For so many years, the virtuous brother has paid too much for the country, come on, come on, big brother, I will toast you!" Li Yukun said and picked up the wine glass!

Zhao Mingqing hurriedly picked up the wine glass, "Big brother guards the frontier, and he doesn't dare to step into the field, it should be the virtuous brother who respects you, cheers!" After speaking, the two of them drank it all!
