The originally long journey suddenly seemed to be a little different because of the arrival of Zhang Shisan.
Although speaking of it, Liu Deng hated this old boy so much that his teeth itched.
But I have to admit that this old boy does have his own uniqueness, and often he can smell it before something happens.
"I said you came all the way here just for this bar?"
When he was half drunk, Liu Deng picked up a piece of braised beef and asked with some confusion.
"Didn't I just say that I, the old man, thought that your boy would be in a bloody disaster this time, so he came here to rescue you. How can you be touched?"
This century-old wine does taste a little different. When the wine is scooped out from the plate, the viscous liquid is like honey.
Even with this old drunkard's drinking capacity, he can't hold it anymore, and it's obvious that he has a big tongue when he speaks.
"Stop talking nonsense here, you are the only one who has suffered a bloody disaster. Your whole family has suffered a bloody disaster!"
Liu Deng's eyes almost rolled to the sky. This old boy was just looking for trouble.
It seemed that he was not going to reveal his purpose, but Liu Deng had to admit that wherever this old boy was, he was probably the center of the incident. Could it be that he would really be in any danger this time?
But if you really calm down and think about it, your plan this time seems to be a bit risky. Could it be that this old boy really heard something?
"My old man's whole family is now the only one left. You should tell me where there is any bloody disaster in my old man. In this whole world, except you, who else dares to be disrespectful to my old man? Is it possible that you still plan to do so?" Do you want to fight with my old guy?"
Zhang Shisan rolled his eyes strangely and glared at Liu Deng angrily.
When Cao Wei next to him heard what Zhang Shisan said, the expression on his face became obviously strange.
Unlike Liu Deng, he was a second-generation official who grew up in Chang'an City. I didn't dare to have any doubts about this old man's abilities.
And his attitude towards Zhang Shisan was naturally very respectful. Seeing Liu Deng and Zhang Shisan laughing and scolding here, his eyes were full of admiration for Liu Deng.
"I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you. What happened to you this time is full of dangers. You'd better have some ideas in your own mind. I also know that your kid is different from others. You won't listen to anything I say to you. Be careful yourself. Just some!"
After the old man finished speaking, he took another big sip of wine. After finishing this sip of wine, he actually turned his head to the sky and fell down. Liu Deng rolled his eyes to the sky. This old boy was so unreliable. What was the difference between what he said and what he didn't say?
But this old guy was already drunk, and even Liu Deng had no good way to deal with him.
However, what the old man said just now gave Liu Deng some hints.
Although it is said that the Huns are now on the verge of rupture, who can say for sure about the people's hearts? I seem to take everything too much for granted.
After the old man drank too much, Liu Deng didn't dare to drink any more. Although the wine was good, he couldn't be greedy, especially since his drinking capacity was really limited.
"Throw this old boy into the carriage behind me, and cover him with a sheepskin so he doesn't freeze to death."
Listening to Thirteen's snoring one after another, Liu Deng frowned and gave Shunzi instructions.
"My wine, my wine!"
The door of the carriage had just been opened, and the old eunuch's heart-rending shouts could already be heard from behind the team.
"Stop mourning there. I caught this wine thief for you. Do you plan to cut him into pieces or something else? It's up to you!"
Looking at Zhang Shisan who was so drunk, Liu Deng shouted very shamelessly.
"This was brought out from Xianyang Palace by Emperor Taizu Gao. Even Emperor Gao was not willing to drink it back then! This old thief who can kill a thousand swords!"
The old eunuch beat Zhang Shisan's chest hard while shouting heartbreakingly.
"Okay, okay, this wine is just for drinking. He is already drunk now. Even if you kill him, he won't feel anything! You should think about how to deal with it!"
Perhaps because of his conscience, Liu Deng coughed dryly, cleared his throat, and then said.
"On behalf of the King, I implore Your Highness to kill this thief and bring order to the military discipline!"
After crying for a while, the old eunuch suddenly said.
"Don't be rude. Even if His Majesty sees this old god, he still has to bow to you as a junior. Isn't it just a jar of wine? Anyway, it is for those barbarians to drink. What do they know about it?"
Seeing the old eunuch's cruelty, even Cao Wei felt a little embarrassed. After all, the three of them secretly drank together, and now it seemed a bit unkind to let Zhang Shisan take the blame.
In particular, the old man is drunk and doesn't know what's going on. If the old man wakes up and finds out that he was the one who tricked him, who knows if the old man will plot against him afterwards?
"Master Cao is right about what he said. Okay, just pretend that this never happened. I will return you two jars of century-old wine tonight!"
As Liu Deng spoke, he winked at Shunzi and motioned for him to send Zhang Shisan to the carriage behind to rest.
Shunzi was still respectful to this old god. He carried Zhang Shisan all the way to the carriage behind him, and specially selected some thick sheepskins to put on the old man's body.
After the convoy set off again, Liu Deng took out a bag of fried soybeans from his sleeve out of habit.
These beans were all specially fried by Zhao Wengu before he left for Lingnan. Liu Deng put a lot of effort into keeping them dry.
The beans fried by others will always be more or less different. Only when he encounters difficulties, Liu Deng will chew the beans and think about his own thoughts.
Seeing Liu Deng lost in thought, Cao Wei didn't say anything and just drank and ate meat by himself.
The team advanced silently and waited until dark before entering Longxi.
Liu Deng was quickly calculating his entire previous plan in his mind. What he thought was a rigorous plan, but now that he thinks about it carefully, there are indeed countless variables.
But things have reached this point, and there is no turning back.
Jinyang is now in full swing. We are just waiting for the weather to get warmer and the first batch of carriages will start delivering supplies to the grassland.
As long as construction starts there, Longxi will have to start...
