Chapter Twenty-Three: Charming Eyes (2)

The banquet soon began, the five of us gathered together, I was both excited and nervous, the other four looked similar to me, Ning Boyang seemed calm. After a while, Liao Jianzhong walked out in civilian clothes, and there were really four hundred households beside him, he cleared his throat and said, "Brothers, today we have five new brothers in Jinyiwei, congratulations." With the consent of Commander Mu and Lord Murong, Liao prepared a banquet and invited everyone to eat and drink, firstly, to welcome them to join Jinyiwei, and secondly, I often go out of Beijing, and I haven't been with you for a long time. Everyone shouted hello, and Liao Jianzhong led the four hundred households back to the main hall, and beckoned us to go in together and sit with them. Two more tables were placed in the main hall to entertain other guests, but they were full of dishes and drinks, but no one came.

Liao Jianzhong has a smile on his face, and the seriousness of the past, judging like two people, and the four hundred households, with different expressions, Hua Shichun is not smiling, he always likes to keep his head down, although Gu Dayou is smiling, but his eyes are sharp, Yue Ziqian is white and pure, like a scholar, but his eyes are deep. But Ji Maotong is born with a smile, and has two big ears, and his eyes are kind and close.

Liao Jianzhong didn't let the five of us sit together, but sat with them, and I was next to Hua Shichun and Ji Maotong, so it was indeed a little restrained.

Liao Jianzhong didn't let go of the first glass of wine, said casually, we followed the drink, I don't drink alcohol on weekdays, I really feel that my throat is hot, just put down the wine glass, Ji Maotong said: "You drink two more glasses, the Lord of Qianhu toasts, you must return three glasses." "We had to drink again, and we only felt that our faces were hot, and the other four of us looked normal. Several hundreds of households couldn't help laughing, I realized that I was fooled, and Liao Jianzhong also smiled: "You, always make fun of the little brothers!" Ji Maotong smiled: "Respect for seniors, as a matter of course." That's how we came back then. ”

Everyone laughed, and Ning Boyang suddenly filled a glass of wine, stood up and said, "The subordinates are new, and I will ask the five adults to take care of them in the future." This glass of wine is my toast to you. As he spoke, he drank it all. The five adults didn't move the cup, which made Ning Boyang a little embarrassed, Liao Jianzhong suddenly smiled and said: "When you enter the door of Jinyiwei, you are Jinyiwei's brother, you can't take care of it, but it is inevitable to share weal and woe, you are the most clever among the five, you are more down-to-earth, and you work hard." Drink this wine yourself! ”

Ning Boyang even claimed that it was, and Yue Ziqian got up and said: "The junior brother is not talented, he has always been invincible to alcohol, and today he crossed the second brother Hua to toast first." Just respect Liao Jianzhong, the other three didn't move their glasses, only Ji Maotong smiled: "The third child is smart, he can't drink well, so he hid early." ”

Yue Ziqian drank the wine, his face turned red, and he said with a smile: "The fifth brother is too talkative, and the second brother is not angry, what are you adulterated." Look at him holding the pork knuckle and nibbling it, and said, "It's a shame that we have a small amount of food, otherwise the dishes on the table won't be able to fulfill your belly." ”

From their words, I guessed that they were the five sworn brothers. Gu Dayou looked at us and said, "Ning Boyang has already toasted, shouldn't the four of you also drink one?" Tan Sheng sat beside him, stood up, and said: "Subordinate Tan Sheng, thanks to the recommendation of Liu Jin's father-in-law, can enter the Jinyi Guard, in the future, he will definitely follow the five adults, before and after the saddle, he will not give up." Tan Sheng was a fat man with a big belly, Gu Dayou sat next to him, couldn't help but smile, touched the wine glass, but saw that the other four people didn't move, and he also returned his hand, but Liao Jianzhong picked up the cup and said, "We respect Father-in-law Liu!" Gu Dayou hurriedly took a cup, and everyone drank it together.

This wine was drunk very quickly, Hardy and Gu Dachun said very simply, Hardy was from Mongolia, and it seemed that with the help of the recommendation of the general army of Datong, Gu Dachun seemed to have some background, and what he said was very ordinary. It's me in a flash. To be honest, although I talk a lot on weekdays, but on this occasion, I really don't know what to say, and at the same time, I feel that I have drunk too much, my head is a little dizzy, Hua Shichun next to me almost didn't make a sound, still lowered his head, and the seat was a little cold for a while, and I was so nervous that I sweated. Ji Maotong looked at me, and then looked at Liao Jianzhong, Liao Jianzhong kept staring at me, nodded, Ji Mao said: "Zhang Ying is the most sensitive person among the new brothers, and he has made great contributions, I believe everyone has seen it." Therefore, today's glass of wine, we salute Zhang Ying. ”

As he spoke, he stood up. I was startled, quickly got up, hugged my fists and said: "This is to torture my subordinates, how can my subordinates be virtuous." The subordinates didn't dare to take credit, if it weren't for Lord Liao Qianhu's action, they were afraid that they would inevitably miss. I respect all of you, and I will work hard to move forward. In addition, I have studied medicine and have a headache and brain fever, so you can give it a try! ”

Gu Dayou said with a smile: "Hehe, the little brother's medical skills, that's no better, we often go out, we sleep in the open, headaches and brain fever are inevitable, but we can't bring a doctor, this is good, with you in the future, our brothers can rest assured." Yue Ziqian said quietly: "Brother Zhang is young, how many years have he studied medicine?" I could tell that he didn't trust him too much, so I hurriedly said, "I started at the age of twelve and studied for five years. ”

Liao Jianzhong said: "You are a family heirloom, right?" Seeing that I nodded, he said: "This is very good, there are doctors in Beizhen Fusi, you can also go and see if you have nothing to do, their medical skills are still okay, not as good as the imperial doctors, and better than the doctors on the market!" I hurriedly said yes, Ji Mao channel: "In this case, Beizhen Fusi not only has a brother, but also has an additional doctor, so everyone drinks this glass of wine together." ”

After drinking it all, everyone also drank it one after another, and I saw Ning Boyang's eyes strange. Hua Shichun, who had been silent, said: "This Brother Zhang has indeed made a great contribution. The skill of flying stones and birds is very good, I heard that this afternoon, I ...... "I thought he would say that I rescued Miss Ningxi, I was a little excited in my heart, and I couldn't help but glance at Liao Jianzhong, Liao Jianzhong was very interested, and motioned for Hua Shichun to continue.

When Hua Shichun was about to get up to explain, someone outside came to report, saying that the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion of Shouning had come and brought wine, fruits and vegetables. Nashou Ninghou is Miss Ningxi's father, the current queen's elder brother Zhang Yanling, and her younger brother Zhang Heling is the Marquis of Jianchang. Emperor Hongzhi has only one wife, the so-called love house and Wu, the Zhang family is very favored, glorious and rich, and everything is available. The position of power is unmatched, how many dignitaries in the court and the central government, bow down to the Zhang family, it is said that a Zhang family housekeeper, the five officials in Beijing have met, and they dare not raise their heads. The Zhang family has never only entered the palace, but now when they come to our small Beizhen Fusi, Liao Jianzhong was really stunned, glanced left and right, and said, "What's going on?" ”

Liao Jianzhong said, while not daring to slack off, got up to greet him, Hua Shichun followed closely behind, whispered a few words, Liao Jianzhong turned his head, glanced at me, and there was a lot of praise in his eyes. I guess he knew about the afternoon, and he couldn't help but feel good.

The housekeeper of the Hou Ninghou Mansion walked in with a big grin, followed by two family members, carrying a load of things. "Old Ge, what wind blew you here? Hurry up and take a seat and drink! Liao Jianzhong bowed his hand and said, the housekeeper Ge smiled, his fat face was almost cracked, and a slit-like eye blinked, and said: "If you had the heart to invite me to drink, you would have told me a long time ago, why bother to make this false with me." I didn't expect you to come back, I knew that I would have come over a long time ago. ”

The two looked very familiar, and they were both laughing, Liao Jianzhong invited him to sit inside, and Steward Ge waved his hand and said, "We don't have to be so polite, tonight is your gathering of the Zhenfu Division, I won't participate, you can invite me to tea one day." There are many things to do in the Hou Ye's Mansion, less gossip, there are two things today, one is here, Miss is in distress, and when I meet your brothers, I am grateful, let me send some things, talk about gratitude; Second, after the Hou Ye knew about this, he was very angry, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, in broad daylight, there were people who wanted to do wrong, so I have to ask you to help catch that guy, and Ming Zhengzheng will be punished! This matter is a piece of cake for you, arrange a brother and catch that guy! ”

He said it very lightly, as simple as digging into the bag, but Liao Jianzhong had a serious face, and even claimed that it was, and said: "Who is so bold and dares to break ground on the head of Hou Ye." Steward Ge said: "Shuntianfu is not successful, I have to trouble you to come out, who made you the first brocade guard in the capital!" Liao Jianzhong shook his head again and again, and said with a smile: "You are roasting me on the fire!" If you can't do it, you won't be allowed to eat it. ”

Manager Ge kept smiling, and finally arched his hand and said, "This matter is a piece of cake for Brother Liao. I still have something to do, you continue, don't delay the big thing of the Hou Ye, I'll wait for the good news! Liao Jianzhong hurriedly said: "Brother Lao replied to Hou Ye, this matter is on me, and the prisoner will be caught in ten days and sent to Hou Ye's mansion!" ”

"Okay, with your words, I also follow the glow on my face! I won't bother you drinking, and I will say goodbye first! Steward Ge was still smiling, leading people out, Liao Jianzhong wanted to send it off, but he pushed it back, and Liao Jianzhong asked Hua Shichun to send off the guests.
