Chapter 84: Welcome Banquet

Someone has already reported it.

When Lu Wei and the others walked to the door, a middle-aged man with a big belly led a group of people over with a smile, looked Lu Wei up and down, and then glanced at Zhang Yuqing who was standing behind Lu Wei.

"You are Lu Wei, the son of the Duanshu County Lord?" The man laughed and nodded with satisfaction, "Sure enough, the hero is a boy!" ”

Someone next to him introduced: "This adult is Lord Shen of Liangzhou." ”

Lu Wei bowed and said politely: "See Lord Shen for your humble position." ”

The female guests came out of the next room, and when they saw Lu Wei, they probably didn't expect him to be such a good-looking young man, with a long body, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and a calm temperament, they all covered their faces with fans and laughed.

A son next to Shen Shoushan said: "The sun is shining outside, and my father will invite Lord Lu into the house first." ”

A young lady shook her fan and smiled and pulled Zhang Yuqing to the female guest next door.

Lu Wei was a little relieved, and watched Zhang Yuqing enter the next room.

The son next to Shen Shoushan said with a smile: "I heard that Lord Lu and Mrs. Lu are newly married Yan'er, and it is really the time to be like glue!" ”

A woman laughed and said, "Lord Lu is still afraid that we will not be able to eat your wife?" ”

Zhang Yuqing's face was a little hot, and secretly said What do you people know, just kidding!

The northwest folk customs are open, although men and women are divided into two rooms to eat, but only separated by a gauze screen, through the screen, you can see the figure of the male guest opposite, and the voice of everyone is also very clear.

Zhang Yuqing was pulled to the seat and sat down, next to a middle-aged lady, next to the young woman who pulled her into the seat, I heard that the middle-aged lady was Shen Shoushan's wife, and the young woman was Shen Shoushan's daughter-in-law......

In short, men sit at the wine table according to their official positions, and women sit according to their respective men's official positions.

Zhang Yuqing sighed in her heart that she had finally found the benefits of this marriage, and after a dip in Lu Wei's light, she was mixed into the top position of the banquet at a young age.

Shen Shoushan's voice came from the side of the screen, and he asked with concern: "Lord Lu has been in Baochuan for a few days, and he must have experienced a lot of customs and customs!" ”

Lu Wei said: "I didn't dare to take it, I just had a cursory understanding, and I delayed coming to see Lord Shen." ”

"It's a trivial matter to come to see me, and it's important that we each do the errands assigned by the emperor!" Shen Shoushan smiled with an indifferent look, "I don't know Lord Lu's habits of staying in Baochuan?" ”

Lu Wei hesitated for a moment and said, "It's quite a habit, but I found that there are Hu people who will pass over the weakly defended places and plunder and kill the people." ”

Everyone at the wine table looked surprised.

The commander said with a smile: "It's like this every year, it's good to get used to it." ”

Mr. Qian next to him answered: "Who knows where they came from?" The Hu cavalry is elusive, picking up small roads, coming and going like the wind, and running away after robbing and killing! ”

The garrison shook his head and sneered, "You can't guard a team of soldiers on the border line!" Even if we wanted to, the imperial court would not be able to afford so many soldiers! ”

Shen Shoushan patted Lu Wei's shoulder and said with relief: "Lord Lu has just arrived, it is normal to be afraid, the imperial court has signed an agreement with the Hu people to pay tribute to gold and silver every year, and the Hu people will not come to commit crimes." It's just that there are a few people who harass, and when the looting is over, they leave, and it can't be the climate! ”

Lu Wei was frightened, his palms were cold, and he said, "Many people were killed by the Hu people......

Shen Shoushan waved his hand, "This is also no way, it's just Qiantou." ”

Lu Wei's heart sank, and he said: "My lord, I have a lot of pit ponds and rivers in Baochuan, if these pit ponds and rivers can be dug up to form a great wall of water, it can block the cavalry of the Hu people squad and protect the safety of the people." ”

Shen Shoushan laughed, "Lord Lu is still new to officialdom, and he doesn't understand the situation!" ”

Lu Wei frowned, "Why did your lord say this?" ”

Shen Gongzi said: "Lord Lu's method, someone has also proposed it before, but digging a pit and pond is not allowed to ask the court for silver, levy labor, and mobilize people?" The group of civil officials in the court who can only play tricks will participate in us tossing the people, working the people and money, embezzling and apportionment, using public weapons for private purposes, and buttoning big hats one after another on our heads in Liangzhou! In the end, I had to stop it! ”

Lu Wei was silent.

The garrison next to him played a round and said with a smile: "Lord Lu's idea is good, but I have been in the capital for a long time and I don't know the local facts." ”

Different from the dress of a group of generals on the table, Shen Gongzi was wearing a brocade robe, shaking a fan, looking like a rich scholar, and glanced at his father Shen Shoushan, Shen Gongzi said: "Lu Gongzi has just arrived, and he is in a hurry to make meritorious contributions, and we can understand his feelings. ”

Lu Wei frowned, rubbed his hand on the wine glass, and said nothing.

Mr. Qian said slowly: "After all, the emperor's grace is vast, and Lord Lu has just stepped into the official career to be a fourth-grade member, and he is a relative of the emperor and the country!" The starting point of Lord Lu is already the end that most of us and most people have worked hard to reach in their lives! ”

Shen Gongzi put down the wine glass and pretended to reprimand: "What do you say when you drink two glasses of wine!" Lord Lu came to Liangzhou to be loyal to the country and guard Daxia! Lord Lu, did you say? ”

Lu Wei said in a deep voice: "Don't dare to be." ”

Shen Shoushan squinted his eyes and smiled.

Lu Wei said loudly: "Lord Shen, Baochuan's military expenses have been in arrears for several months, and the soldiers have eaten gruel to spend their days, I don't know when it will be sent?" ”

Shen Shoushan sighed, "If the imperial court doesn't send it, I can't do it, there are still 300,000 troops stationed in Liangzhou, waiting for the imperial court to send food and silver!" ”

The officer below echoed: "The days in Liangzhou are also sad!" ”

"Didn't Lord Lu call the emperor an uncle? It's better for Lord Lu to personally write to the emperor and urge Liangzhou's military salary and rations! ”

"That's it!"

Shen Gongzi waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't make fun of Lord Lu, we can all urge military spending, but Lord Lu can't urge it." Come on, drink and drink! ”

The sound of silk and bamboo sounded, there were singers singing songs with beats, and there was a group of beauties dancing in the courtyard facing the banquet, and the banquet was staggered.

Shen Gongzi leaned into Lu Wei's ear and said, "I know that Lord Lu is worried about military salaries, but now there is an opportunity for Lord Lu to prepare military funds, I don't know if Lord Lu is willing to contribute to this?" ”

When Lu Wei heard this, although he had doubts in his heart, he still said, "Your Excellency, please speak." ”

Shen Gongzi said in Lu Wei's ear: "There is a nest of extremely vicious bandits entrenched a hundred miles south of Baochuan, if Lord Lu is willing to suppress the bandits, not only will all the food and materials in the bandits' den go to Lord Lu, but also a head will be converted into a Hu person's head to count Lord Lu's military merits, how about it?" ”

Lu Wei frowned, bandits are generally in the steep mountains that are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and to the south of Baochuan is the plain of Pingchuan, so he asked: "I have never heard of bandits there, are you sure?" ”

Shen Gongzi looked at Lu Wei's handsome face, nodded Lu Wei's chest with a folding fan in his hand, and said with a smile with ambiguity: "You go and kill, there will be it!" ”

After Lu Wei thought clearly about the unsightly darkness, he waved away Shen Gongzi's fan, shocked and angry, they clearly wanted him to kill the people of Pingtou and act as a bandit to deceive the military merits, if he committed this unconscionable thing, it would be equivalent to accepting a certificate of surrender to them, and handing the handle to Shen Shoushan, and in the future, he would collude with Shen Shoushan and be embarrassed.

One day, he didn't want to do anything with Shen Shoushan, and he didn't want to get off this broken ship, Shen Shoushan took this handle, and there were many ways to make him comply.

Shen Gongzi's fan was directly knocked out by Lu Wei, and the screen that hit it was crooked a few times.

Everyone was stunned by this change, and the sound of playing and singing came to an abrupt end.

Even the female guest was shocked to silence.

Shen Shoushan frowned, put down the wine glass in his hand heavily, and shouted majestically: "Lord Lu, what does this mean?" ”

Lu Wei stood up, gritted his teeth and was about to speak, when Shen Gongzi next to him smiled and said, "Father, don't worry, I was not careful, the fan touched Lord Lu." ”

Shen Gongzi looked at Lu Wei leisurely, his smile was full of ill intentions, "Lord Lu is really good!" ”

The garrison immediately realized, "Speaking of which, we haven't seen Master Lu's skills yet, how about it?" ”

Shen Shoushan laughed, "Lord Lu might as well show them a hand, so that they can see the skills of the prince of the capital!" ”

Without waiting for Lu Wei to say, Mr. Qian hurriedly got up, waved off the dancing girl in the courtyard, and asked the people below to call a person named "Li Rong" to come over.

"I have a small soldier who can't make a weapon, and he can do simple kung fu with both hands. Lord Lu should give him good advice! Mr. Qian smiled.

On the female guest's side, Mrs. Shen saw that the atmosphere on the male guest's side had changed, and her attitude towards Zhang Yuqing took a 180-degree turn, and said coldly: "The men will inevitably be injured and bleeding when they fight and kill, so Mrs. Lu might as well go down first, so as not to be frightened." ”

Zhang Yuqing put down her chopsticks and said lightly: "What's there to be afraid of?" ”

Back then, the change of Luerwei, the capital was bleeding, what kind of tragic scene did she never see?

Mrs. Xiao Shen smiled: "Then Li Rong, I've heard of it, he is a person who can fight!" Lord Lu looks handsome, but unfortunately he is not Li Rong's opponent! ”

Mrs. Qian said with a smile: "Mrs. Lu doesn't know, Li Rong has never been defeated in the competition with others!" ”

Zhang Yuqing smiled slightly, and was calm and calm under the siege of all the ladies, "This is really a coincidence!" My husband is not only good-looking, but he has also been undefeated all these years! ”

Through the screen, Zhang Yuqing's words clearly reached Lu Wei's ears. Hearing the words "my husband", Lu Wei was stunned.

Mrs. Shen didn't believe it, that Lu Wei was young, but eighteen, he was still a royal nobleman, and the little white face piled up with standard brocade clothes and jade food, even if he could do kung fu with both hands and feet, how could he compare to these strong men in the military camp who really relied on their skills.

"It's a small matter to lose face if you lose by those vulgar and reckless people, but it's a big deal to get hurt! You must know that your fists and feet have no eyes, and you don't care about life and death on this martial arts platform! Mrs. Lu should go and persuade Lord Lu, bow her head early, so as not to lose face! Mrs. Shen said slowly.
