Chapter 146: Three rounds of drinking

After recuperating for a while, Zhao Ling gradually recovered.

His own martial arts are low, and it can even be said that he can only embroider his legs twice, and he can't even talk about martial arts.

Zhao Ling's refusal to practice martial arts is not because he is unwilling to practice martial arts, but because he is afraid that practicing martial arts will make some people notice him. So since he was a child, his mother didn't let him practice martial arts.

This is also the pain that Zhao Ling buried in his heart.

Even the earliest Liang Hezhen is the daughter of a general, with both talent and appearance, and her martial arts are close to the level of Realm One, and the later Xu Yuyan is even more powerful, and she is already at the level of Realm One.

It's not that he is not good at martial arts, but he is very yearning for martial arts, and his former imperial uncle also told him that since he returned to Jian'an, he has never practiced martial arts again.

That's right, people in a situation like them, as long as there is any movement, will always provoke the sensitive nerves of some people.

This time he was plotted, it was pure luck to survive, as far as Xu Changshan said, that is, there is Liu Tingyu, if it is someone else, I am afraid that there will be no one who can save him, those doctors in Jian'an City, not to mention credible, even if there are few who are willing to govern!

Lifting the pen on the desk, he only wrote one word for a long time: "Decision"

Long.

wiped away the tear stains on his eyelids, but he still couldn't cover his red eyes and tired look.

The first URL

After Xu Changshan came in, he handed over a roll of hot towels.

Looking at his uncle, Zhao Ling took it.

His embarrassed appearance is like a lost dog, and the low point of his life is no more than this. The only one who can guard him by his side is his uncle.

Look at this uncle who wears a blue shirt all the year round, does not pay attention to luxury and wealth, and has always been simple. Look at his weather-beaten face and the wounds under his neck that are not easy to see. Over the years, in order to protect him, his uncle's efforts are far from being comparable to others. For Zhao Ling, Xu Changshan is more like his father, who has been taking care of him selflessly!

As soon as he thought of this, Zhao Ling fell into endless self-blame, for the sake of a woman, he did not hesitate to quarrel with his uncle, and even scolded him. But now that I think about it, Xu Yuyan, why doesn't my uncle like it?

She is the best woman in the Xu family in Dangzhou, with both ability and political integrity, and at the age of sixteen, she has become the middle level of Dangzhou Topaz, that is, the first level of Renzong Jingyi. Such an excellent woman must be the pride of the Xu family in Dangzhou, how could Xu Changshan not like it?

Sometimes when he thinks about these things, he feels that his uncle thinks more comprehensively than he does.

If he dies in Ancheng this time, not only will his dream be ruined, but the Xu family in Dangzhou will also be implicated and destroyed. For the sake of a woman, if he died, what would happen to Xu Yuyan?

He didn't even dare to think about it.

When the hot mist covers the eyes, it has a refreshing feeling of being slightly hot, which is suitable for relieving the dryness and fatigue of the eyes.

After wiping his face, he handed the towel back to Xu Changshan, and Zhao Ling said, "I want to see Liu Tingyu and talk to him." ”

When he took the towel, Xu Changshan, who had been silent for a while, nodded after thinking for a moment: "Liu Tingyu went to Xuyun Mountain and hasn't come back yet." ”

"Void Cloud Mountain?"

Zhao Ling was a little surprised.

"Well," Xu Changshan was still gloomy, and continued: "He should have used the Pantheon Machine, but it didn't seem to be successful, I can feel that Wang Dingyang was injured again, but he didn't die." According to the power of the last Pantheon machine, this time Wang Dingyang will not be able to catch it no matter what. If he can catch it, it means that the sword of the Ten Thousand God Machine has not succeeded!"

Zhao Ling frowned and thought, "Is it because I have no results?"

Xu Changshan shook his head: "If that's the case, there is no need for him to save you." Even at worst, he's going to use you as his puppet. How could he be angry? It's just ......"

"What?"

Xu Changshan said while thinking: "It's just that I don't think he seems to have any interest in the throne, and the meaning of his words is that he still hopes that you will be the emperor!"

"Me?"

"You need to talk to him. ”

Zhao Ling wanted to say that his uncle was too easy to trust others, but he didn't say it. Liu Tingyu can't say that he is using him?

But look down at the decision you wrote......

The feeling when I walked back from the ghost gate was completely different from before. He may have been scared before, but in the end, he didn't feel the fear of death as deeply as he did this time.

Nod yes.

Young people will be persistent and stubborn, but it is often easier to recognize themselves in the face of reality.

It is human nature to pretend to be forced, but it is also human nature to be modest.

......

In the afternoon, Liu Tingyu led the people back to Ancheng, and the people in the streets and alleys welcomed them one after another, which was not seen even in Jian'an.

Zhao Ling, who was in the post station, could hear the voices of people chanting for the young marshal more than a dozen zhang away in the distance.

Xu Changshan explained to him that Liu Tingyu is a guy who is very good at winning people's hearts, and in these days in Sanqin, he doesn't know where to get the money, and he sends money and food to the people.

In fact, all of them are calculated according to the capitation, and there will not be many in every household, and one person will only have five hundred dollars and two catties of rice and noodles, but every family has benefited, even if it is a small favor and a small favor, they all remember his goodness, so when they heard that he was back, the people spontaneously formed a team to welcome him.

"Do you want to buy the hearts of the people?" Zhao Ling seemed to have an epiphany.

It is said that when Zhao Hui was in office, there were many kinds of miscellaneous taxes in the private sector every year, and roughly speaking, each household had to pay at least nearly three taels of silver per year. This made the people of Ancheng miserable, and they all scolded him behind his back, and those who knew a little bit also knew that Zhao Hui was supported by King Duan, and by the way, he also held a grudge against King Duan.

After Liu Tingyu came, he drove Zhao Hui away, and when he returned to Jian'an, Zhao Hui was empty-handed, and he was about to become a beggar, but Zhao Ling gave him a sum of money to let him live in peace. Of course, in Ancheng these days, he also knew that Zhao Hui's small vault was a five-entry house, how much money was saved?

Liu Tingyu would have settled the accounts, exempted the people from paying taxes for a year, and refunded the people for a year's taxes, but even so, he still earned!

Zhao Hui stepped down, and Liu Tingyu was full.

......

When the sun was about to set, Zhao Ling had time to go to see Liu Tingyu.

He and Shen hugged together, not only chatting, but also discussing some disgraceful things!

Sure enough, it was Ji Yuan's first ghost and his apprentice.

The two of them were actually in the house, one of them holding a woman, and there was a lot of wind and snow.

Xiao Yiqing obviously encountered such an embarrassing thing for the first time, and he was uncomfortable and shy when he was played with by Liu Tingyu. It was the one in Shen Yong's arms, eating and laughing, and playing with Shen Yong, and there was no lack of bare arms, allowing Shen Yong's old hand to reach into her clothes.

Seeing Zhao Ling coming, Xiao Yiqing became even more uncomfortable, leaned in Liu Tingyu's ear and said a few words of forgiveness, and went down to warm the bed first.

Shen Yong is also interested, and the baby in his arms also said goodbye and left.

ordered all his subordinates to retreat, and then Liu Tingyu asked Zhao Ling to sit down, personally brought him dishes and chopsticks, and poured wine for him.

Do it first!

Zhao Ling was inconvenient to excuse himself, and he was about to speak after drinking, but he didn't expect Liu Tingyu to pour wine for him again, invite him to drink, and invite him to eat.

A prince, no matter how bad he is, he doesn't want to eat the leftovers eaten by others, right?

Zhao Ling frowned.

But Liu Tingyu didn't care, and said with a smile: "I remember that when I was fighting that year, I entered the palace in Beichen, and saw that there was still a banquet on the table, and people ate the leftovers, but they still ate it! His hands were covered with the blood of a murderer, and he ate it together. ”

“......”

"You probably haven't seen anyone who has died, have you? When you see a pot of millet porridge, it's like seeing meat, and you eat it all at once. I was hungry for more than a month, and I didn't even have anything in my intestines, and I had already shrunk and eaten so much at once, plus millet was still supporting my stomach, and as a result, my intestines were broken. ”

Zhao Ling swallowed and spit, what Liu Tingyu said was really disgusting.

Liu Tingyu smiled, toasted and said: "This is the Xiyong of the year, people are dying of hunger, what can't be done? The people take food as the sky, and you have built a good wind and rain every year, but what about these surrounding countries?

The days of the common people?

Zhao Ling couldn't help but look at Liu Tingyu.

"If it were me, I wouldn't ......"

Shaking his head to signal him to drink, not wanting to hear his words.

It seemed that he was deflated, and Zhao Ling was embarrassed.

Raise your glass and say: "There is a saying in the north of us that wine is strong and intimidating, and after three rounds of wine, it is time to speak, drink first!"

The wine has passed three rounds, and the food has passed five flavors......

......

drank for a while,

This is the first time Zhao Ling has had this strange drinking experience, and in the past, he was accompanied by Xu Yuyan at most, and the wine was dull and tasteless, and there was no warm feeling. But when I drank with Liu Tingyu, I had a different feeling.

At the beginning of drinking, he would talk about wine and jade and gold, and then it would be customs, but then Liu Tingyu's bold remarks teased Zhao Ling's Adam's apple. How to look at a woman's buttocks, how to touch it to make a woman feel stimulated. At first, he was talking to himself alone, but later, maybe it was the catalyst of wine, Zhao Ling unconsciously interjected a few words, and took out his poor knowledge to communicate. even mentioned Yan Ji without hesitation, saying that Yan Ji understands this very well.

Hearing him say this, Liu Tingyu couldn't tell him bluntly that it was trained, but just hinted at him in a roundabout way.

Of course, Zhao Ling is not a mediocre talent, he is also conscious of this, and he immediately understands it as soon as he mentions it.

After talking, it came to Xu Yuyan, and Liu Tingyu still asked him in a different way: "When I saw Miss Xu at that time, I liked it very much, she was very beautiful!"

"Haha," Zhao Ling's face turned red, and he didn't know if it was because he drank too much wine, or because he talked about too many things that only men and men would discuss. However, mentioning this still made Zhao Ling sober up a little. What Liu Tingyu said to Xu Changshan that day, Xu Changshan told him everything without reservation, and it was time to make up his mind at this moment: "Just like it!"

"Hey, it's not necessarily a good thing, I, I still like the yellow flower girl. But in a place like Jian'an, such a beautiful girl, I'm afraid it's difficult to keep her whole body!"

Zhao Ling drank this cup of bitter wine, wiped away the tears that were accidentally squeezed out with the volatile wine, and said with a smile: "Yuyan is a sensible girl, you have to treat her well, I have always treated her as a sister!"

"Hehe, of course. ”

After a cup with Zhao Ling and a drink, Liu Tingyu asked with a smile: "When will she come." ”

Zhao Ling said: "On the way, according to the day, it should be three days later!"

Hehehe......
