"Mr. Zhuang, are you almost arriving at Tianjing New City?" A female voice came from the carriage, soft and graceful, making people's hearts flutter. The tallest and most handsome Confucian scholar in white who was riding beside the carriage quickly replied: "We have already seen Tianjing New City. We will definitely arrive before sunset today!" Although he and the other Confucian scholars around him had been following the woman in the carriage for a long time, they still couldn't help but feel intoxicated and in a trance, not knowing what was going on in the world.
The team moved on. Suddenly there was singing. It was many people singing. It seemed to be far away. It came from a distance. Because there were many people singing, it could still be heard very clearly: "Good brother, let's have a drink. Today there is wine and today I will be drunk. Forget all the fatigue. A thousand words can be said in a wine glass, good brother, let’s have another drink. It’s rare to get drunk in life, so drink it up! Cheers! Hahahaha...!” The melody of the song is simple, but catchy, There is no arty elegance of the scribes, but full of the bloody temperament of a man. The woman in the carriage whispered: "This is "Brothers", yes, this is Tianjing New City, and there must be Yanyun Military Camp around it!"
Mr. Zhuang beside the carriage said quickly: "Miss, you are very knowledgeable. There is indeed a military camp in the distance." "Yes." The woman hummed and said nothing more.
Stuck! The carriage suddenly made a loud noise, and at the same time the entire body of the carriage jerked downwards, and the people in the carriage screamed in surprise. Seeing this, all the Confucian scholars panicked and quickly gathered around. I saw that the left wheel of the carriage flew completely off, and the entire carriage tilted to one side. Mr. Zhuang and others rushed to the carriage and asked urgently: "Miss, are you okay?" The moving female voice said: "It's okay. What happened outside?" The voice was trembling, obviously frightened. Mr. Zhuang said: "Miss, don't worry, it's just that the wheel flew out, just put it back on!" There was a soft hum in the carriage.
Mr. Zhuang immediately called to everyone: "Everyone, let's lift the carriage together!" All the Confucian scholars agreed, and dozens of people rushed out, ready to help. Due to the limited space around the carriage, the Confucian scholars who were a step behind were depressed. I couldn't help but hate why my reaction was so slow!
Mr. Zhuang raised his voice and said: "Everyone listen to my command. I will count three times, and then everyone will work hard together!" All the Confucian scholars agreed.
Mr. Zhuang raised his voice and said: "One, two, three!" As soon as he counted these three words, dozens of Confucian scholars exerted their strength together, and the carriage began to shake. However, the carriage could only be lifted less than half a foot before it could no longer be lifted. The driver There was no way to put the wheels back on, so they shouted: "It's still a little short of it, everyone, come on!" The Confucian scholars tried their best, and some even shook their whole bodies, but the carriage could only lift half a foot. There was no way to lift it up anymore. Everyone was exhausted and slowly lowered the carriage. Many people sat down on the ground and panted.
The car curtain opened, and a very beautiful little girl in a white dress came out. She was really a pretty person, with particularly smart eyes. Then she was seen standing aside, lifting the curtain of the carriage, and saying: "Miss, slow down!" All the Confucian scholars' eyes couldn't help but fall in front of the carriage, and they saw an extremely graceful woman walking with the help of the little girl. After getting off the carriage, her slender waist was hard to hold, and her clothes were moving like clouds in the wind. Everyone was stunned. However, the woman wore a white gauze bamboo hat on her head, which covered her face and prevented her from seeing the true face of Mount Lu.
The woman took a look at the situation of the carriage and said to Mr. Zhuang: "Mr. Zhuang, it's not far from Tianjing New City. We can walk."
Mr. Zhuang thought to himself: 'If you can't even solve the problem of this carriage, you will definitely be looked down upon by the lady! 'As soon as he thought about this, he said to the woman: "Miss is a body of gold, how can she walk in the dust!" All the Confucian scholars agreed: "Miss is a fairy, we can't let the dust tarnish it!" "Miss's fairy appearance is absolutely amazing. Don’t let ordinary people see it!” “Miss, please relax, after I read poetry and books, won’t I still be able to solve the problem of this little carriage?”…
The woman said: "Then I'll help you all."
When all the Confucian scholars heard this, they felt that their bodies were instantly filled with strength, even the dozens of people who had just fallen down tiredly were no exception. Mr. Zhuang shouted loudly: "Everyone, come again!" Then the dozens of people who had just lifted the carriage began to lift it again. In order to show off in front of the beautiful lady, they all tried their best, but the carriage could only be lifted half way. The ruler couldn't be lifted any further. The coachman couldn't help but feel a little contempt in his heart when he looked at these flushed-faced scholars who were exerting all their strength.
After all, dozens of people couldn't lift the carriage high enough and gave up halfway. The other Confucian scholars were overjoyed, thinking that since you couldn't lift it, I would have a chance. They immediately rushed up to lift the car. Dozens of people grabbed the position. They were very happy and used all their strength to prepare for the limelight. However, the result was the same as that of others. Like the dozens of Confucian scholars before, they could only lift half a foot. The dozens of Confucian scholars who had lifted the cart were originally very worried, but seeing that they couldn't lift it now, they couldn't help but feel relieved, and then began to rejoice in the misfortune.
More than a hundred Confucian scholars took turns to join the battle. Each group tried several times. More than a hundred people crowded around a carriage, but the result was the same. These Confucian scholars who had no strength to restrain the chicken could not lift it up at all. carriage.
Seeing that the Confucian scholars were not giving up, the woman became impatient and said, "Okay, don't carry it anymore. Let's walk to Tianjing New City." All the Confucian scholars were dejected, like cocks defeated in a fight.
At this moment, a loud rumbling sound suddenly came from the direction of the military camp. Everyone couldn't help but follow the sound and saw dozens of knights rushing towards them. The horses were majestic and the knights were powerful. They were really like tigers, horses and dragons. Although there were only a few dozen people, it felt like a thousand troops! Everyone's heart trembled involuntarily, and some people took two steps back involuntarily.
Dozens of knights flew past everyone. The very heroic knight in the lead turned his head and looked at everyone. The knight obviously meant no harm, but the awe-inspiring power naturally revealed in his eyes shocked everyone.
Dozens of knights ran out for more than ten steps. The leading knight raised his left hand and turned around, and the other knights also followed suit. Dozens of knights rushed in front of the crowd and reined in their horses. The leading knight looked at the young lady, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes. Although he did not see the young lady's appearance, her figure alone was enough to impress her. Frustrated. When the young lady saw the other person looking at her, she turned her head and ignored him.
The knight leader moved his gaze to the carriage leaning aside and asked: "Is there something wrong with your carriage?" The Confucian scholars relied on their status and did not answer him. The coachman replied: "To the general, our carriage is The wheel came off the wedge and flew off. I wonder if the general can help!" The coachman had never seen the leader of the knights, so naturally he didn't know his identity. He just saw that he seemed to be the leader of this group of cavalry, so he called him general. He thought that since he He is a soldier, so calling him "general" will never offend him.
The knight leader smiled and said: "It's a small matter!" He turned to the cavalry beside him and said: "Go and help six people!" When the Confucian scholars heard that the other party only sent six people to help, they couldn't help but sneer, waiting to see them embarrassed. .
The six cavalrymen made a promise, turned over and dismounted, quickly ran to both sides of the carriage, grabbed the shafts of the carriage, shouted in unison and pushed hard together. The whole carriage suddenly shook upwards and was lifted up, more than a foot above the ground. All the Confucian scholars were shocked. The driver was overjoyed and quickly put the wheels on. Several cavalrymen let go of the shaft, returned to the officer, and got on their horses.
The cavalry officer smiled, said nothing, turned his horse and ran towards Tianjing Xincheng, and his cavalry followed. The woman originally thought that the general would come to strike up a conversation, but she didn't expect to leave immediately. She was startled and quickly raised her voice: "Thank you, General!..." The officer did not look back, but raised his left hand and waved it, as if to say It's like 'no need to say thank you'. The little girl next to the woman looked at the backs of the cavalry and couldn't help but said: "They look very good!" The woman murmured: "General Yanyun is a little different from the legend!"
The coachman inserted the wooden wedge and checked it carefully. After confirming that there was no problem, he ran to the woman and bowed: "Miss, there is no problem with the carriage. Please get in." The lady nodded and looked at the little girl. He walked into the carriage with help. The team is back on the road. A Confucian scholar whispered: "They are just a bunch of ordinary people, and they are actually showing off in front of us!" Many Confucian scholars echoed, and their words were full of jealousy and resentment.
The little girl in the carriage heard the discussion of the Confucian scholars outside, frowned, and asked the woman: "Miss, that general and those sergeants helped us, why are they not happy, but angry?" The woman said calmly: "This It’s called jealousy!”
"Master, none of those Confucian scholars thanked us, but that woman thanked us!" Wang Kai said angrily. It turned out that these dozens of cavalry were not others, but Yang Peng and dozens of his secret guards. They had just returned from the military camp outside the city, and when they met, they helped those people.
Yang Peng said with a smile: "If a Confucian scholar can be grateful, then he is not a Confucian scholar." He glanced at Wang Kai and said teasingly: "The more books you read, the worse your character is!" Wang Kai said: "Attribution When sons are born in the future, they will never be allowed to study! Good people will turn into beasts after studying!" Yang Peng chuckled, "That's not entirely true. It's better to read less of those so-called classics. It’s good to read more books on military and technical aspects!” Wang Kai nodded, “Whatever the master says, we will do it?”
Yang Peng chuckled, waved his hand and said, "It's not enough to just listen to me. Wouldn't that turn me into a classic? You have to have your own thoughts. My opinions may not all be correct. You have to learn to judge. If I don't If you are doing something wrong, you must bravely raise it!" Wang laughed and said: "I am ignorant, but I can't offer any opinions! I will not think about this matter of raising opinions. Anyway, there are many princesses and so many Minister of Civil and Military Affairs!"
The group of people rushed into the city gate and ran straight to the palace. When Yang Peng returned home, the sun was about to set. As soon as she sat down in the living room and took a sip of tea, Yelu Hanyu's personal maid Jin Xiuying came to the hall. She looked at Yang Peng with beautiful eyes, bowed and said, "Master, please come over, please." Have a meal." Yang Peng put down his tea bowl and nodded: "Okay!"
However, at this moment, Xiaofang, the personal maid of Yeyi Guanyin, also came in. Seeing that Jin Xiuying was also there, she couldn't help but frown, and quickly bowed to Yang Pengyingying, and said: "Master, the lady has prepared a For wine and food, I have specially ordered my maid to come and invite the master to come and have a meal.”
When Yang Peng was in trouble, it would have been fine if he had already gone to live with a certain wife or concubine, but he was still in the hall. Both Yeqi Guanyin and Yelu Hanyu sent people to invite him, which really put him in a dilemma. In this case, if you go to one person instead of the other, it will definitely break a woman's heart. This is not what Yang Peng wants to see.
Just when Yang Peng was in a dilemma, Naren came in, bowed and said, "The princess sent me to invite King Yan to a banquet. The food and wine are ready!" Yang Peng rubbed his forehead in distress, but he didn't know it was over yet. , Zhao Jinxi's mother, Han Bing and Yang Erya's maids, the maids of the princess's palace, Yang Tong's maids, etc., every wife and concubine sent someone to invite them. Yang Peng was made big head and two big; while all the princess's cronies were staring at each other, their expressions were full of hostility. If they didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Yang Peng, they would probably have made a big fuss at this time. .
Yang Peng had no choice but to say: "I have important things to deal with today, so I won't go to eat. You all should leave!" Naturally, everyone hoped that King Yan could go with them, but since Yang Peng said so, they Not daring to say anything, they all responded and retreated.
Yang Peng took a long breath and said with a wry smile: "I have too many wives, but I don't even have room to eat!" He raised his head and glanced at the sky outside the door, and couldn't help but murmured: "God, you are not kidding." Me!"
A person walked in quickly from outside. Yang Peng withdrew his gaze and headed outside, only to see Zhan Jinguo in military uniform walking in quickly. Yang Peng's heart moved and he immediately went to greet him. The two met on the steps at the door. Zhan Jinguo clasped his fists and saluted: "Brother,..." Yang Peng grabbed his palm and walked outside, saying as he walked: "Let's go outside to drink!"
When he came outside the palace, Yang Peng saw that Zhan Jinguo was wearing an armor and cloak. It was not convenient for him to drink outside, so he said, "Go to your house first and change into casual clothes. Let's go drink again." Zhan Jinguo responded. At this time, Wang Kai led a group of guards and ran out. As secret guards, they must protect their master at all times, so when they heard that King Yan was going out for a drink, they hurried out to prepare for the escort. Yang Peng frowned and said to Wang Kai: "Zhan Jinguo and I are going to drink, you don't have to follow!" Wang Kai felt it was inappropriate, but how dare he disobey Yang Peng's order, so he could only clasp his fists and agree. Then he watched helplessly as King Yan and King Zhan Jin left.
Wang Kai hesitated for a moment, then hurriedly ran through the gate and towards the backyard. Yang Peng followed Zhan Jinguo back to his home. This is not a very big courtyard, but although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs. It was awarded to Zhan Jin by the military after he achieved military merit. Otherwise, he would never be able to afford this house with his own salary.
Yang Peng looked at the surrounding furnishings and saw that the furnishings in the living room were simple, but not shabby. He casually sat down on a small table. At this time, footsteps came from the side door, and a beauty in Hanfu walked out accompanied by a little girl. Yang Peng recognized the beauty at a glance and said with a smile: "Brothers and sisters, you're fine!" It turned out that the beauty in Hanfu who walked in was the newly married wife of Zhan Jin Kingdom, Yelu Yuliyan. This Yelu Yuliyan has long been interested in Zhanjin Kingdom. On that day, Princess Yelu Hanyu of King Yan personally acted as matchmaker and made this good relationship happen.
Yelu Yu Liyan was slightly surprised when he saw Yang Peng, then his face flushed, he walked up quickly and bowed Ying Ying: "Yu Liyan has met His Highness King Yan!"
Yang Peng smiled and said: "Jin Guo and I are brothers, you should call me big brother like him!" Yelu Yuliyan glanced at Zhan Jin Guo affectionately, looked back, and called out shyly: " Brother." Yang Peng laughed loudly and said to Zhan Jinguo: "Brother, the wife your sister-in-law and I married for you is not bad!" Zhan Jinguo looked at Yelu Yuliyan affectionately and said to Yang Peng with great gratitude. "It all depends on my eldest brother and sister-in-law, otherwise how could I get such a good wife!" Yelu Yuliyan was overjoyed when he saw Zhan Jin Guo praising him in front of his eldest brother. He couldn't help but hugged Zhan Jin Guo's arm. Khitan women were not like Han women are so reserved, and they show their feelings naturally.
Suddenly he remembered something and said quickly: "I'm going to prepare the food and drinks. Brother and my husband will have a good drink!"
Yang Peng originally wanted to go out for a drink, but when he saw his younger siblings enthusiastically inviting him, he felt it was hard to refuse, so he nodded and said, "Okay, sorry for bothering my younger siblings!" Yelu Yuliyan said quickly, "The eldest brother is one of my own, what's the matter? It’s no trouble!” Then he led the little girl beside him out of the hall and went to prepare some food and drinks.
Soon after, the sumptuous food and wine were prepared. Yang Peng and Zhan Jinguo sat by the small pond in the backyard, drinking and chatting, while Yelu Yuliyan and his maidservant were waiting on the side.
Yang Peng said to Yelu Yuliyan: "Brothers and sisters, stop being busy and sit down." Yelu Yuliyan responded and sat down next to Zhan Jinguo. Yang Peng glanced at the two of them, not to mention how happy he was. Now he had a beautiful and virtuous wife. This change made Yang Peng the happiest.
Zhan Jinguo picked up the wine glass and winked at Yelu Yuliyan who was next to him. Yelu Yuliyan immediately understood and also picked up the wine glass. Zhan Jinguo said gratefully: "My younger brother was just a bandit originally, but he became a bandit just now. If it weren't for my elder brother, I would have died a long time ago. My elder brother saved me and taught me martial arts. It was all because of his promotion that I am what I am today!" smiled. "I don't care about glory and wealth. I am most grateful to my eldest brother for giving me the opportunity to display my talents. If a man can do anything in this world, he will finally live up to his life!" He turned to look at his wife affectionately and said, "In addition, , I am also grateful to my eldest brother and sister-in-law for giving me such a beautiful and virtuous wife!" Yelu Yuliyan looked back at Zhanjin Kingdom tenderly. Zhan Jinguo looked at Yang Peng again and said loudly: "I can't say anything, but this glass of wine is worth a thousand words! Brother, I'd like to give you a drink!" Yelu Yuliyan said quickly; "I also respect you, brother. One cup!" Zhan Jinguo drank it all in one gulp, and Yelu Yuliyan also drank it in one gulp.
Yang Peng held the wine glass and said with a smile: "Seeing the two of you together, I, the eldest brother, am so happy!" Then he raised his head and drank the wine in the glass.
Zhan Jinguo suddenly became arrogant: "I can meet a great hero like my eldest brother and follow him around the world. Even if he is shattered to pieces, what's the regret?" Yelu Yuliyan's expression changed slightly, but he didn't say anything. Zhan Jinguo picked up the jug and wanted to pour some wine. However, at this moment, his heart was full of pride and he felt that he couldn't express his full enthusiasm with this small wine glass. So he put down the jug, walked aside, picked up the jug and returned. At the wine table, without using a wine glass, he lifted the wine jar and started drinking. The strong liquor inspired passion, so he put down the wine jar and howled loudly!
Then he handed the wine jar to Yang Peng. Yang Peng laughed loudly, raised the wine jar and drank it. He drank half of the jar in one breath and said with a big smile, "Happy! Happy!" He handed the wine jar back to Zhan Jinguo. Jin Guo raised his head and drank again. The two of them went back and forth to drink wine, and in the blink of an eye, the entire jar of wine was drunk. The two got drunk, and Zhan Jinguo asked his wife to bring up all the wine stored in the house. The two drank jar after jar of wine, bursting into heroic laughter from time to time. In an hour, they drank no one knows how much wine they had. Yelu Yuliyan, who was serving on the side, looked at the two of them, his beautiful eyes shining brightly, and he felt that no one of the heroes in the world could compare to King Yan and his own man.
The two drank another large bowl of wine and sat back down. Yang Peng was used to drinking high-strength liquor and had a strong resistance to alcohol. Therefore, although his stomach was very bloated, he was not very drunk and his consciousness was basically awake. Yes, but the situation in Zhanjin Kingdom across the way is not good. Although they haven't gotten under the table yet, they are basically no longer good and have started talking nonsense.
Yang Peng smiled and said: "Today is really fun! Let's call it a day!" Zhan Jinguo stammered: "Brother, eldest brother, are you going to leave?" Yang Peng said with a smile: "Let's drink it next time!" Zhan Jinguo stood up holding on to the table and said: "I, I will send it to my brother!"
Yang Peng stood up and said; Zhan Jinguo walked towards the bathroom. Zhan Jinguo said: "Brother, little brother, little brother, farewell!" Yang Peng said with a smile: "Stop talking nonsense, go take a bath and have a good sleep!" Yelu Yuliyan helped Zhan Jinguo go down.
Yang Peng took a deep breath and left the mansion of Zhan Jin Kingdom. The night wind blew in my face, and my mind became clearer. I saw a large group of people coming towards me. They came to the front and worshiped together: "I have met King Yan!" It turned out to be Wang Kai and other secret guards, as well as Han Bing. At this moment, Han Bing was dressed in men's clothing and looked dashing. Han Bing rushed to Yang Peng's side, held Yang Peng's arm, frowned and asked: "Drink a lot of wine?" Yang Peng chuckled, "It's been a long time since I drank with my brothers, I'm so damn happy!"
Han Bing said angrily: "There are too many women at home, and I don't know what to do, so I ran out to drink with my brothers!" Yang Peng laughed, sighed, and said with emotion: "It's hard to enjoy the blessings of being together! Han Bing rolled her eyes at Yang Peng and said angrily: "You just know! You deserve it!" Then he said: "Let's go home!" After saying that, he supported Yang Peng and walked to the palace, followed closely by the secret guards.
What happened after all, let’s see what happens next.
