Chapter 32: Advice on Drinking
In the strange eyes of everyone, Lu Tianming coughed and said with a smile: "Indeed, indeed, the old man is old, his memory is not very good, and his old eyes are a little dizzy." Ling Gongzi, to tell the truth, the old man can't see your face clearly, haha. ”
Lu Tianming is playing haha, pretending to be generous. Ling Ye knew it, but he didn't want to continue the pursuit, so he stopped making a sound, just arched his hand and sat back in his seat.
The reason why he satirized Lu Tianming was actually very simple. Lu Tianming said that it was impossible for the mountain village to teach a teenager like him, which meant that his father was a mountain village husband. Ling Ye shot back unceremoniously, letting this old white head who was leaning on the old and selling the old touch a nail.
Lu Tianming didn't seem to intend to let it go like this, and continued: "Young Master Ling, the old man remembers that you killed the traitor Hu Kuan in Yongzhou before, and now you have done this great thing, Your Majesty appreciates you very much. With such feats and courage at a young age, Ling Gongzi's future is limitless!"
Ling Ye said lightly: "Lord Lu said that he laughed. Speaking of the infinite future, among all of you here, which one can compare to you, Lord Lu?"
Lu Tianming smiled again: "The old man is old, and he will return to his hometown soon." The affairs of the court, that is no longer to worry about. This world of tomorrow is still your young people's!haha!"
Ling Ye smiled faintly, but he didn't pick up any more, he knew very well in his heart that Lu Tianming's words sounded like he was praising juniors, but he was actually provoking the hostility of everyone present towards him. It's hard to say whether he, Lu Tianming, has praised others or not, but praising Ling Ye in front of everyone here and now will naturally arouse the jealousy of others towards Ling Ye.
You're a hairy boy, why do you let Shousuke-sama praise him in public? And you're such an unethical person?
Sure enough, as soon as Lu Tianming sat back in his seat, a middle-aged man with a white face and a slight beard sitting diagonally opposite Ling Ye also stood up, picked up the wine glass with both hands, and said with a smile: "Ling Gongzi, I also toast you!
Ling Ye also only took a shallow taste. He remembered that this person was Zhenyuan Hou Anlie, but he didn't know what trick he wanted to make?
An Lie put down the wine glass, waved his hand to fill the maid behind him, and then picked it up and said with a smile: "Ling Gongzi, I heard that Hu Kuan originally captured eight invincible iron wolves, and held the entire training camp hostage More than 1,000 officers and soldiers rebelled with him. In the face of such a strong enemy, Ling Gongzi was fearless, single-handedly fought through the encirclement, took Hu Kuan among thousands of troops and horses, and finally divided his five horses. Such a feat of wind and thunder is worth a big toast!"
Ling Ye vaguely guessed something, but he was not afraid, so he took another sip.
An Lie filled the maid again, picked it up again and said: "After I heard about such a feat, I often lamented that I was not blessed, I could not see such an earth-shattering battle with my own eyes, and I could not even see such a young hero with my own eyes. Fortunately, God has fulfilled people's wishes, Your Majesty wants to personally summon a young hero like you, I have the blessing to see Ling Gongzi with my own eyes, if it is really famous, it is better to meet, Ling Gongzi's demeanor, how can it be expressed by pen and paper?
When others saw such a posture, they all understood it in their hearts. This is a change of way to drink in the middle of the night, get him drunk and make a fool of himself!
Ling Ye took a shallow sip and said lightly: "The Marquis of Zhenyuan said that he laughed." That's just a trivial matter of fighting before the battle, the fate of the soldiers, how can it be compared with the merits of all the adults? An Daren can be named the Marquis of Zhenyuan, it is conceivable that the merits of An Daren are by no means comparable to the next level. He didn't see that this person was born as a military general, but he was given a title like a military general, and he didn't think that he earned it himself, so he used this to talk about him. Lele Literature
The eyes of everyone looking at him changed a little. It's good to use these words on anyone, but you can't use them on An Lie. Because the marquis of An Lie is hereditary, he himself has not made any credit at all. So, Ling Ye is satirizing people in person!
An Lie's white face was obviously a little darker, but he still smiled and said, "Ling Gongzi said that he was laughing. Besides, tonight you are a distinguished guest, and what we want to honor is your earth-shattering achievements. Come on, do it!"
He is really unambiguous, and he is directly bored after speaking. Ling Ye couldn't lose this superficial etiquette, so he could only take a sip.
After all, it was a person who had never drunk alcohol, and although he had only drunk a little, the alcohol still began to surge, and his mind was already a little confused. Ling Ye was secretly surprised in his heart, thinking that if these dignitaries and nobles toasted one by one, what would it be?
It's absolutely not okay to get drunk on the spot, that is, to get these people to achieve their goal, let them see the joke.
What if you refuse not to drink?
Isn't that too rude and boring?
Ling Ye was thinking to herself, and noticed that someone's eyes were staring at her. He looked down and saw Leng Rushuang sitting on the other side. The white-haired and blue-eyed girl sat upright in her seat, staring at Ling Ye with a strange look in her eyes.
Ling Ye's mind was originally a little confused, but when he saw her gaze, his mind suddenly cleared up a lot. Leng Rushuang had not been able to distinguish the winner from him before, and her heart was still full of disdain for him, if she made a joke in front of her, she would definitely look down on herself even more in the future.
Hmph, she must not be despised by her!
An Lie let the maid fill it again, held it up again, and said with a smile: "Young Master Ling, we all admire you very much for your feat of rushing to kill thousands of troops. That spectacular scene can't be reproduced, but we still hope to see your Ling Gongzi's skills. How about it, Ling Gongzi, can you show us a thing or two?" said and took a sip, shining on the wine glass, looking at Ling Ye with an expectant look in his eyes.
Ling Ye looked at him, and then looked at the crowd, and saw that many of the people were indeed full of anticipation, and some of them were just watching the excitement, like ...... Spectators on the side of the street are waiting to watch the monkeys perform acrobatic tricks such as erecting dragonflies.
I'm here to be a monkey and do acrobatics to show you dignitaries and nobles at night?
Ling Ye sneered in his heart, and said lightly: "This is the banquet of the Marshal's Mansion, and before all of you, what kind of system is it to dance with knives and guns? Besides, I think you are all civil officials, and I don't think you like to watch fights and kills, so you can show your skills on the spot or something!"
An Lie laughed and said, "How come, how come? Everyone is full of expectations, Ling Gongzi, why do you want us to come with expectations and leave with disappointment? Everyone said, yes or no?"
