Chapter 9: Night Whispers Upstairs, looking around at a loss

He Hanwen saw that Yuan Shao was going to go back in the loop, and he had the heart to make friends with Yuan Shao, so he gave him a step down, first made a gesture, and then said: "Brother Benchu is joking! Brother Meng De doesn't have to take it seriously. I know that this Liufang Garden is only half a mile away, there is a view of the Canglou, you can have a bird's eye view of the night spring. Seeing the two brothers today, Han Wenshi is happy, if the younger brother is the east today, please move to Guancanglou, there is a servant to handle the lamp, I don't know what the two of you think?"

Cao Cao listened to He Hanwen's words, and saw that this son was quite old in speaking and acting, and he already had the idea of making friends, so he looked at Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao also vaguely felt that He Hanwen was not like an ordinary boy, not only was he brilliant, but he was also very good at doing things, and he was welcomed as a guest, so he was overjoyed and allowed it.

So far, He Hanwen, Cao Cao, and Yuan Shao have gone out of the park in parallel, followed by Xiaozhu and Qiao'er. At the entrance of the garden, Li Shen's red figure jumped directly on He Hanwen's shoulder, startling him.

He Hanwen saw that it was not easy to drive away, and he was afraid that this civet cat would be a big deal, so he explained in Cao Cao and Yuan Shao's inquiry: "The two brothers are not strange, this cat is raised by me, and it is human." Then he gently smacked Li Shen's back.

Li Shen heard that He Hanwen was planning to have a banquet in the restaurant, and was planning to eat, but she didn't understand He Hanwen's worries, so she stood up on He Hanwen's shoulders and nodded at Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.

Cao Cao was very curious, and sighed: "This is really a civet cat!"

He Hanwen: Hey, this little guy really has some spirituality, and the second sister-in-law is actually a woman! Well, Lao Tzu can be regarded as having a cat today!

※※※

To say that this Guancang Tower, in fact, is not towering, only two floors. It is built on a small hill about half a mile away from Liufangyuan, which happens to be a little higher than Liufangyuan, so it has a bird's-eye view.

The building is boxy, with cornices on the roof. I'm afraid it's quite inappropriate to say that it's a building, at most it's a two-story wine house. The main body of the first floor is the style of the Eight Classics, divided into four areas, with the feast and the stars, and the second floor is a hollow pavilion style, surrounded by a screen.

The owner of the wine house is surnamed Zhao, and he is a somewhat graceful middle-aged man. By the time He Hanwen, Cao Cao, and Yuan Shao arrived in front of the wine house, Boss Mi was already waiting there.

"Villain Mizhuang, here to wait for the three masters!" The owner of the wine house saw that the three of them were approaching, and took the lead in saluting, and the little slaves and maids behind him also saluted.

Yuan Shao had already taken the lead, and his family background and status were the most respected, so he arched his hand slightly, and said: "Oh, the three of us haven't come here yet, how do you know?"

This Yuan Shao originally asked casually, in order to show his identity. However, Cao Cao and He Hanwen were a little cautious, Cao Cao had secretly pressed his left hand on the buckle of the sword, while He Hanwen was staring at the Mi boss while looking around with his spare eyes. "It's a strange thing. He thought.

Zhao Zhuang saw Yuan Shao's question, and saw Cao Cao's face with a fierce light, and hurriedly explained: "How dare you raise a sir! Yuan Gongzi, Cao Daxia, and Young Master He, Zhuang has been operating a wine house here for more than six years. Non-Zhuang boasts, the nobles in Luoyang City, most of the Zhuang are familiar with it, and few don't recognize it. As soon as Yuan Gongzi, Cao Daxia, and Young Master He entered Liu Fangyuan, Zhuang learned about it. Seeing the three nobles coming here, they must have the intention of feasting and drinking. As soon as the three of them came out of the garden, there was a little servant to report. Zhuang is afraid of snubbing distinguished guests, how dare he not eat pot pulp to welcome you?"

Cao Cao and He Hanwen listened to it and were skeptical. However, Yuan Shao didn't care, and he heard Mi Zhuang's flattering words, and gave enough face, so he became proud again, and pretended to nod deeply. He said, "You have a heart." Then he didn't ask what He Hanwen and Cao Cao meant, so he untied his waist card and threw it to the little guy next to him. He arrogantly stretched out his hand and pointed at Mi Zhuang to go inside.

When He Hanwen saw Yuan Shao entering, he didn't dare to make his own decisions, so he had to look at Cao Cao's meaning. Cao Cao was suspicious, but then thought: "This Guancang Tower is so close to Luoyang City, I am afraid there are no bandits." He put down the left hand holding the belt from the buckle of the sword, and untied his waist card, handed it to a servant in the wine house, and grabbed He Hanwen and went in.

When He Hanwen saw Cao Cao's move, he couldn't help but think highly of Cao Cao again, and at the same time hated Yuan Shao even more. But he knew in his heart that Yuan Shao's use value was very large, and such a small rudeness was nothing compared to the benefits he was about to get. He also untied the waist card, handed it to Xiaozhu, let her send it, and sat down with Cao Cao.

The three of them entered the wine house, and there was no one inside. Mi Zhuang hurriedly explained: "There are not many guests, and the three distinguished guests are here, I am afraid that Yaxing will be damaged, so they will all be dismissed." "Let's go to the second floor.

The second floor has long been arranged, the screen has been removed on three sides, and the only thing that remains is the one behind the main seat. As for the remaining two seats, they are under the main seat, standing opposite each other. The three of them naturally knew what such an arrangement was for, so they removed their duties at the entrance and entered the hall.

Yuan Shaozu was the third prince of the fourth generation, and he was a wealthy family, and he could be called a son, so this seat was naturally entered by him. Cao Cao's grandfather Cao Teng, his father Cao Song, is Congheng and Ling, although they are not as prominent as the Yuan family in Runan, but they are also nobles.

Let's talk about He Hanwen, although He Hanwen is a concubine in the He family in Nanyang, but with the official reputation of He Jin now, the He family is also in full swing. Therefore, Cao Cao and He Hanwen are opposites.

Everyone sat down, and the maidservants waited aside. Mizhuang high-fived as the number, wine and food poured in. He Hanwen had already been taught banquet etiquette by Mrs. Wang, so he instructed Xiaozhu and Qiao'er: "Xiaozhu, Qiao'er, don't you take care of the cup for Brother Benchu and Brother Meng De?"

Xiaozhu and Qiao'er said, "Oh." Then he warmed the wine and carefully filled the two bottles with a wine spoon.

He Hanwen picked up the wine bottle, saluted Yuan Shao and Cao Cao in a proper manner, and said: "Today, Hanwen is fortunate to know the two brothers, and this destiny is also!

After that, he raised his sleeve robe, half-covered his face with his left hand, and held the wine bottle firmly with his right hand, and drank the hot wine in one gulp. A spicy taste rushed straight to He Hanwen's stomach, and he felt a warm current flowing through his body, as if to expel the slight chill brought by the rainy weather.

"Okay! sigh elegantly!" Yuan Shao and Cao Cao also raised their glasses, first saluted He Hanwen, and then saluted each other, also in accordance with etiquette, and drank in one gulp.

So far, the banquet has been staggered. Mizhuang retreated, guarded the door, thinking about how much five baht could be entered for this banquet, and arranged for many dancing girls to go in to serve. For a while, during the feast, the fat swallow was thin, and there was the language of the warbler.

He Hanwen didn't forget Li Shen, he called a small servant and asked him to prepare another food and utensils. This is the first time I have seen this pet banquet, where does the little guy dare to call the shots, so he asked Mizhuang.

Mi Zhuang thought for a while, and then ordered: "Where are there many questions, what Young Master He commands, just do it." ”

The little guy had some doubts, first made a gesture at Mi Zhuang, and then bowed and said, "Master, I'm afraid there is a violation of etiquette." ”

Mi Zhuang was thinking about the money in his heart, where could he take care of these things. He thought to himself: as long as he serves well, he will set up a line. Silver money must be indispensable, you only need to go to the three of them to get it. However, if you make the three distinguished guests happy, you will come back next time, and the benefits are not small.

Hearing the little guy say this, he was immediately furious: "Confused things! Hugh has to say a little more!" the little guy heard this, and quickly shuddered and begged for mercy.

Mi Zhuang just got angry, but he didn't forget to lower his voice. When he saw this little guy cowering, he comforted him with kind words: "It's okay, you don't have to be safe." Just do what you're told. Remember, as soon as you respond to your demands, you can meet them all, and you just need to report to me. ”

"Whew!" the little guy responded, and then put the good dishes together on a low desk in front of Li Shen, and served a bowl of warm wine.

Li Shen knew that he needed to eat quietly at this time. She already understands human language and etiquette, but she didn't show it for He Hanwen to know. But that doesn't stop her from pretending to be a well-trained pet.

Therefore, she didn't do anything amazing, just quietly chewed the food and wine in front of her, and listened to the wine and laughter of these humans.

"Sigh, just now in the garden, listening to your good poems, does Hanwen have the intention of helping the world?"

Ho Hanwen: The opportunity has come! I'm afraid you won't ask. I'm thankful for all the flowers I've been waiting for, and if you don't ask me again, you'll have to take the initiative to say it.

"Alas, Brother Mengde, Brother Benchu!" He Hanwen planned to learn to speak and stop, leading the two of them to ask questions.

Cao Cao was still in the middle of the game at this time, and he had no intention of establishing a hegemony. However, perhaps due to the destiny of heaven, Cao Cao naturally has a domineering spirit that the world does not want to give up. Therefore, when Cao Cao saw He Hanwen behaving like this, he had already decided in his heart that he would definitely not be an unknown person in the future.

However, Cao Cao is older after all, and he is a hero in the rivers and lakes, and he is always more delicate, so he doesn't answer, just bury his head in food.

But this Yuan Shao is different. Yuan Shao is more like a son of a family than Cao Cao, that is, the second ancestor. He has more of that politician air that smacks of arrogance. However, Yuan Shao could not compare with Cao Cao's intelligence and wrewdness, and his deep understanding of human feelings, nor could He Hanwen, with his life experience of more than 30 years in his previous life, be familiar with history. Therefore, although on the surface, Yuan Ben seemed to be the leader, but in fact, he was held in the palm of his hand by Cao Cao and He Hanwen.

Cao Cao didn't answer, and He Hanwen stopped talking. After all, this Yuan Shao is only thirteen years old this year, and he is still the age of a naughty child in an ordinary family. Hearing He Hanwen sigh like this, he couldn't help but ask: "The eldest husband should serve the country, why sigh in the middle of the banquet?"

This is a beautiful statement, but it was completely calculated by He Hanwen in his heart. So He Hanwen was not surprised at all and pretended to be sad, and said slowly: "Brother Ben, Hanwen naturally has the will to serve the country. However, my brother didn't know that Hanwen was his father's concubine... My brother has a lot of tolerance, don't say that he can be filial piety, Hanwen is afraid that there is no way to serve the country!"

But this is difficult for He Hanwen, because although He Hanwen is sad, he really can't cry like Liu Bei. But at this time, it was the time to set off the atmosphere, and he could only be ruthless and secretly bite his tail finger. Use the pain to shed a few tears.

He Hanwen was able to hide from Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, firstly, because his age and sincere feelings caused a sensory illusion for these two people, and secondly, because they ate separately, and there was a great private social distance between people, so they could hide from the world.

However, all of He Hanwen's actions could not escape Li Shen's eyes, especially when Li Shen was still eavesdropping openly.

Li Shen: This little guy has a lot of bad intentions! Men are really big pigs' trotters...
