The matter was almost over, and Li Weida warmly invited Huang Yi to a banquet at the largest restaurant in Zhangjiakou.
Huang Yi refused to enter the city, politely refused, and stated that he would go back immediately after the coal trucks were unloaded and grain, gunpowder, steel and other goods were loaded.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Geng Zhangguang hurried over surrounded by several servants.
Li Weida learned that Huang Yi was coming and sent someone to Geng's house to report the news before leaving the city.
Ever since, Geng Zhangguang, who had been studying hard to prepare for the exam, was disturbed. He came here at the order of his mother with the purpose of inviting Huang Yi to the city for a banquet.
Of course, even if the old lady didn't say anything, Geng Zhangguang would definitely leave the city immediately to greet Huang Yi.
He truly admires Huang Yi, is grateful to Huang Yi, and hopes that Huang Yi will become his brother-in-law.
He was also particularly curious and wanted to know how Huang Yi escaped from the Hou Jin Army and escaped with more than 2,000 people from the tiger's mouth.
The mood was completely different when they met again. Geng Zhangguang no longer had the worried look on his face when they first met. Now he was in high spirits and felt that the world was vast.
As for Huang Yi, he was exactly the same as when we last met.
No, no, Huang Yi's face is full of weathered weather due to long hours of climbing on ice and snow, making him look more powerful and steady.
Geng Zhangguang knew that his mother wanted to meet her son-in-law today, so when they met, he looked Huang Yi up and down, almost from head to toe.
It made Huang Yi feel uncomfortable!
He thought: This Taoist god is not like Longyang, right?
Li Weida knew a little bit about the inside story, and smiled and said nothing.
Huang Yi couldn't help but said: "Brother Geng, you are fine! What happened to you today? Is there something wrong with me?"
"Hahaha, he is really a hero. Anyone who sees him will give him a thumbs up!" Geng Zhangguang said with a smile.
Li Weida joked: "Such a hero is not common, Brother Geng must not miss it!"
Geng Zhangguang said: "I came here in a hurry just to invite Mr. Huang to the city for a banquet. Brother Li must accompany me!"
"Brother Geng invites you, of course I will go with you."
Seeing that he was about to invite him to the city for a banquet, Huang Yi quickly declined: "Brother Geng, I still have a lot of things to do, so I won't go to the city. How about we just have a big drink here?"
"Here?" Geng Zhangguang looked around and shook his head repeatedly, saying: "The conditions here are too simple and not suitable for entertaining distinguished guests. Let's go to the city!"
Huang Yi waved his hand and said: "No, no! You're welcome. If you really invite me, then just listen to me and stay here. I will definitely not go to the city."
Geng Zhangguang asked doubtfully: "Why don't you want to enter the city?"
"I have no name and no status. Isn't it appropriate to bring a hundred soldiers into the city?"
"You can just bring a few confidants with you!"
"No, I'm not used to leaving Paoze."
"Ah?" Geng Zhangguang and Li Weida finally understood the reason why Huang Yi refused to enter the city, and they both felt strange. They all asked in unison: "Why?"
"I forced myself to develop the habit of not leaving my subordinates, and also let others get used to me not leaving the army, in case I get an official position like Chief Mao Wenlong in the future..."
Huang Yi suddenly stopped talking at this time, leaving the rest to those present to figure it out.
Mao Wenlong was alone behind enemy lines when he opened the town of Dongjiang, while Huang Yi fought against the Tatars and Jiannu outside his mouth. There were some similarities between the two.
Li Weida and Geng Zhangguang are not ordinary people. Of course they know the whole story of Yuan Chonghuan's secret murder of Mao Wenlong. They fell silent when Huang Yi said this.
Then Huang Yi smiled and said: "You two must also remember that when you become prosperous in the future, you must guard against villains and have enough guards around you."
Geng Zhangguang sighed and said: "Yuan Chonghuan's bad behavior in killing Marshal Mao has put everyone in the military at risk, and the consequences are disastrous!"
Li Weida said: "Jiannu was able to detour two thousand miles and break into the capital because without Mao Shuai in Dongjiang Town, Jiannu no longer has any worries! That guy Yuan Chonghuan should be cut into pieces by a thousand cuts!"
Huang Yi said: "Trust is the most valuable thing. Military generals no longer trust the civilian officials who command the troops. If people's hearts are broken, it will be harder to lead the troops in the future!"
Li Weida and Li Si'en both nodded and said, "That's true!"
Geng Zhangguang said: "Okay! I respect your opinion and will hold a banquet here!"
Then he turned his head and ordered: "Thirteen, Nineteen, you guys go back and ask for all the cooks at home to come, and then invite the cooks, waiters and their guys from Mingyue House!"
After Geng Thirteen went back to report, the old lady who thought she would see Huang Yi immediately was greatly disappointed.
The banquet was held at a market ten miles outside the city, and it was arranged in the Li family's shop. Of course the old lady who respected her status would not go.
The aunt was just a concubine, so there was nothing to worry about, so she volunteered.
Geng Yueru listened to Geng Zhanghua's talk about Huang Yi and wanted to meet him. She quietly begged her mother to let her go out of the city to see Huang Yi for one moment and then returned.
Geng Zhanghua has gone to Beijing, and Huang Yi has returned safely. The old lady is also a person of friendship. She remembers Huang Yi's kindness. She is really happy that Huang Yi can go home intact.
If you are in a good mood, everything is easy to discuss!
My dear daughter asked for it, and she got it. The aunt volunteered to go on a blind date, and she agreed.
So the old lady sent out all the women and maids around her. It was fake to serve the young lady, but it was true to watch the young lady and not let outsiders see them.
Huang Yi wanted to develop quietly and was unwilling to cause any trouble.
Therefore, Li Weida and Geng Zhangguang were strongly requested not to alarm the civil and military generals in Zhangjiakou, so it was just Li Weida, Huang Yi, Geng Zhangguang, Li Si'en, etc. and Huang Yi's one hundred subordinates who were drinking and eating meat.
Of course, the real banquet is only one table in the living room, and the other tables are just four large bowls of food, two meat and two vegetables, where you can eat big chunks of meat and drink wine.
Auntie doesn't care about being in the public eye. On the contrary, she enjoys the rare opportunity to show her face in front of others.
When she arrived at Li's business in a carriage, the banquet had just begun.
Then she happily came in. When she saw Geng Zhangguang, who was a little surprised, she explained with a smile: "My wife sent me to offer Huang Yi a glass of wine. She also said that if it were at home, she would definitely offer a glass of wine in person."
How could Geng Zhangguang not know what kind of character his mother was? Of course he knew that his aunt must be talking about it through excuses, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he smiled and introduced his aunt's identity to Huang Yi.
"Are you Huang Yi? You're so handsome!" My aunt immediately covered her mouth and smiled, because she fell in love with him at the first sight.
She was thinking in her heart that this man was so majestic and powerful, Ling'er would be blessed in the future. At this time, she completely forgot that she was actually messing up the good things of her daughter.
Huang Yi couldn't understand the etiquette of the late Ming Dynasty at all. Seeing that another member of the Geng family came, and he was still the nominal elder of Geng Zhangguang, he quickly gave up his seat.
