Lefang Yashe, the largest wing of the three-story attic, has a wooden floor covered with a blanket, and the tables are pushed with glasses and glasses of wine clashing with each other.
On the carpet were eighteen dancers, singing and dancing, their graceful figures turning the eyes of the spectators white.
"truth."
Chen Yu secretly thought to himself, but his expression was still quite calm. He had secretly worked hard in his heart to show that he had seen the world and had an extremely broad vision.
You must not be looked down upon by those present.
Looking at the people present, the person in the main seat is Zhang Junhou, and the person on the left is a young man, with a calm expression and no signs of surprise.
Further down is a fierce warrior like an iron tower. That is Dian Wei, whom Chen Yu already knew.
Then there is a scholar in black robes on the right, with an arrogant expression and not squinting. He only stares at the dancer's figure, and judging from the angle of his gaze, he is admiring the big white legs.
Then came down a young general wearing copper-colored armor, with a long sword on his waist and a very exquisite scabbard.
Chen Yu didn't recognize most of these people, but the young man on Zhang Han's left looked familiar.
Living next to Chen Yu was a handsome and handsome scholar. Every move he made was extremely elegant and polite, and his chin was also slightly raised.
Generally speaking, if you see someone with their chin raised like this, they can be regarded as a famous family in the world.
Others don't have this kind of tolerance.
"Ziyan, the man on the left is Cao Ang, Cao Zixiu, the eldest son of the Cao family."
"On the right is Guo Jia, Guo Fengxiao, Cao Ying's sacrificial wine."
"This general is the most recent sword-wielding general beside the Prime Minister. Xia Houen, look at the sword on his waist. It is the Qingzhi that the Prime Minister cherishes most. Legend has it that it can cut iron like clay and is the most precious sword in the world."
"ah……"
Chen Yu was shocked and turned away from the couch immediately after hearing this, but he quickly sat down again.
This was his subconscious reaction. After all, there were so many high-ranking officials and ministers in the hall at this moment. It was an honor to be able to gather with them to enjoy the dance of the foreign land beyond the Great Wall.
This is truly an opportunity that has been cultivated for several lifetimes.
And the person accompanying him was Mr. Yang Xiu, the eldest son of the Hongnong Yang family!
His identity, status, and reputation are all top-notch in the world. He was drinking with me and chatting with me.
Mr. Yang is really white...no, really handsome...
This night, Chen Yu's eyes were almost opened, he experienced the literary style that he had never experienced before, and he had to listen to Zhang Han's countless poems, each of which can be regarded as a classic handed down from generation to generation.
The next day, he left Xudu, packed his belongings and headed to Xuzhou. Carrying Zhang Han's letter of recommendation, he went to Tancheng to meet with Bao Xin, the state pastor.
If he speeds up his journey from Xudu to Xuzhou, he can reach the five-day journey before the road is closed in winter.
After Chen Yu was sent away, no one in Xudu knew what Zhang Han had done. Even if others knew about it, they would not tell it.
…
In Shaoqing's Mansion, Zhang Han had dinner with his wives in front of the rockery pond in the inner courtyard.
The sisters Xiaoqiao are on the side, they are smart and fair, and they look quite similar. They are both tall, slender beauties with delicate figures. Their hair is soft and thick, and if it is let down, they are still a pair of long black sisters.
On the opposite side, Ganmei is as gentle as water, her complexion is white and tender, and her complexion is as full as water.
Next to him is Cao Xian, who has a pair of beautiful eyes and an eccentric temperament.
Zhang Han went home last night, so he slept until noon today, and the atmosphere was not right during the meal.
Zhang Han ate very nervously.
"My husband is away, does he have a crush again?"
Cao Xian suddenly asked.
"Pfft..." Zhang Han spat out a mouthful of tea. He felt a little guilty and panicked. He scratched his head and said, "Where did the rumor come from?"
"One night some time ago, you seemed to have gone to Aunt Cai Yan's house and didn't come back all night?" Cao Xian supported his chin with one hand, rested his elbow on his knee, and looked closely at Zhang Han.
"Besides, let Brother Dian go back to the mansion first, right?"
Dian Wei lives in the middle courtyard, and when he comes back, a servant will come to inform his mistress, so Cao Xian will know the news no matter what.
After hearing this, Zhang Han's mouth suddenly twitched, and he turned back to look for Dian Wei.
Dian Wei, who was standing outside the courtyard door, made eye contact with him. Without waiting for Zhang Han to change his eyes, he stretched out his hand... and closed the door with a bang.
Zhang Han: "..."
Dianwei, you are so special!
"Husband," Cao Xian grabbed Zhang Han's wrist and said coquettishly, "Oh, husband, just tell me, I won't blame you..."
You know nothing about it. Both men and women in the Cao family must be very good at attacking people's hearts. If I admit it later, something will definitely happen.
Zhang Han murmured in his heart. Although Cao Xian is not a messy girl, she is small and delicate, and she is very cute on weekdays. If she pouts and cries, it will be difficult to coax her.
My uncle, Zhang, is a manly man who does not allow his wife to cry anywhere else. They are only allowed to cry freely in one situation! Cry high!
Zhang Han looked at Gan Mei and the Qiao sisters, all three of them chuckled, and then said: "We don't dare to speak ill of our lord..."
"Then Madam mistakenly blamed her husband," Zhang Han shook his head and said disappointedly: "That night, I just studied the books collected by Dr. Cai at Dr. Cai's house."
"What I discussed with her were all classics from the Han Dynasty's ancient and modern schools, and they also included some verbal battles to argue against the classics."
"Later, I went to the military camp."
"Oh? I asked Mr. Wenhe, my husband went to the military camp that day, but left soon?" Cao Xian stared at Zhang Han slyly.
This is the fun of their sisters. It is rare to see Zhang Han with an embarrassed expression on his face. If you can encounter it, you will basically not miss it.
"Hey!" Zhang Han sighed heavily: "You are such a troublemaker!"
"What?" Cao Xian was stunned for a moment. He was confused and didn't understand what it meant. "What do you mean by troublemaker? Why do you say that I am -"
"Women can make trouble," Zhang Han said matter-of-factly, and then posed again: "Either they are making trouble, have you made trouble?"
The two older sisters among the four sisters suddenly turned away, which was unnatural.
"What about men?"
Cao Xian blinked and asked.
"Men are funny..." Zhang Han touched his nose with a smirk on his face.
Then when Cao Xian wanted to ask, he was pulled away by Gan Mei, held in the arms of Incomparable Rong, and covered his mouth.
"Don't ask, don't ask."
They were too lazy to listen anymore. At this time, Zhang Han put down the bowl and chopsticks, stretched, and said with a relaxed smile: "Although I was not in the military camp that night, I went to the Yang family's mansion later, and Taiwei Yang Biao invited me to his home. .”
"Later Dian Wei also went there, and we drank all night."
Hey, was it just for a meal and drink when I urged Dezu to take me to his house that day? !
Not really! This is the perfect reason. I, Zhang Hanxing, sit upright, who can poke my spine and gossip about me! ?
Neither can my wife!
"Then, does that husband know about Lefang Yashe?" The gentle Xiaoqiao blinked and stared at Zhang Han.
"Ahem, I've never heard of it," Zhang Han said seriously, "Madams, you have a good rest. If you have nothing to do today, you can go to the garden or go to Nanlin Villa."
"I want to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion. There is a major military matter to be discussed today."
After Zhang Han finished speaking, he quickly trotted all the way out of the mansion.
Cao Xian stretched his neck and looked at his back, grinning from ear to ear, and said, "Hey, this guy..."
"Mr. Xifu's red money of more than two thousand gold has been sent to his home. It's all been sent to his home, and he doesn't know it yet?"
"Maybe I don't know."
"Husband, you have so many things to do every day, I'm afraid you've forgotten it a long time ago?"
Cao Xian blinked and turned back, "Which one of you is Li Wanji?"
"screw you!"
The Qiao sisters laughed, crossed their legs and closed their hands without saying a word, and their faces turned red.
…
Outside the door, Zhang Han slapped Dian Wei on the back as soon as he came, "You said bad things about me, right!?"
"Where is it? Is there any evidence?" Dian Wei turned around and scratched his head honestly.
"..."
You still want evidence now, right?
Zhang Han was speechless for a moment and found that he had no evidence...
"I don't care! I don't listen! You must have said it! You have no sense of loyalty at all!" Zhang Han stared, "Didn't I call you that day when we were drinking at Yang Mansion?"
"Oh," Dian Wei slapped his forehead, "I forgot about this! Haha!!"
"forget!?"
This can be forgotten! ? How many legends can be written about this night you omitted?
Zhang Han chased Dian Wei all the way, chasing a stick of incense to the Happy Inn in the mansion, and then prepared the carriage to go out.
He went to the military camp first and called Jia Xu back from the camp, so that he could go back to live in the mansion.
When he heard the news, Jia Xu burst into tears. He couldn't help crying in front of Zhang Han and Dian Wei. After getting into the warm carriage, he kept sighing: "Junhou, Sima, you have finally come to pick me up... "
"I've been waiting day and night in the military camp, just waiting for the king to pick you up! I've missed you two so much, and I've finally come!"
Zhang Han looked at Dian Wei strangely: "What's the matter? What does he mean by saying this?"
"Jia Wen and his son said that I was uneducated and a country bumpkin, but I heard them."
"Hey!" Zhang Han was happy when he heard this. He came close to Jia Xu and smiled from ear to ear. "Your son? So arrogant?"
"Even Dian Wei is provoked? Why? Does he have any grudge against Dian Wei?"
"No," Jia Xu hid in Zhang Han's direction and said helplessly, "Isn't it because the young man is so angry and can speak so arrogantly that he made such arrogant remarks? He only has admiration for Sima in his heart, how can there be any disrespect at all?"
"Sima, you can't be the same as a child, right?"
"Yes, I will definitely not take the children's words to heart," Dian Wei said matter-of-factly. Just when Jia Xu was about to take advantage of this, he killed his chance to speak and said quickly: "So I am not Are you having trouble with me?"
Jia Xu:"……"
Zhang Han was in awe when he heard this. This... actually makes sense. A son owes his father a debt.
Of course, Dian Wei couldn't be like a naive boy, so if he wanted to get angry, he could only come to Jia Xu.
Bullying the old does not bully the young.
"That's not right," Zhang Han turned around and said, "You bully the old but not the young. You are talking about two unrelated people. This statement is just established, right?"
"If you don't bully your son, but you bully me, wouldn't that be a bigger hatred?"
Dian Wei: "Tsk, how can I swallow my anger? Why does his son say that I am uneducated and a bumpkin!?"
"I've never seen him!"
Jia Xu was stunned for a moment, then gritted his teeth: "Sima's words are too unreasonable!"
Who says women are inferior... Zhang Han subconsciously started singing in his heart, and turned back in shock.
"If it wasn't Sima who dragged me to the military camp all day long, how could my wife and children at home be so afraid of Sima!?"
Jia Xu was very vocal and seemed to be taking charge, but in fact he was hiding behind Zhang Han, only sticking his head out to be wary of Dian Wei's movements.
"So that's it," Zhang Han stopped Dian Wei and persuaded the two of them to stop.
Now this situation is really strange. Dian Wei is interested in Jia Xu, especially to torment him.
Moreover, in order to prevent Jia Xu from having sinister plans and ulterior motives, he was directly involved in all aspects of personal control, including dispatching and training troops. This time, the training of the guards of the first battalion was directly handed over to Jia Xu.
This is not just asking Jia Xu to train troops, but asking thousands of elite guards in the army to train Jia Xu alone!
"Okay, okay, please stop arguing now. Children talk freely, so why should you take it to heart? Dianwei, you do the same. Why do you always bully Wenhe and let your son see it?"
"This is indeed a bit unethical. After all, how can the family not be angry when they find out?"
Zhang Han thought for a while and said to Jia Xu: "In this case, you let our son come to Shaoqing's house to work, and I will see how knowledgeable he is."
Jia Xu listened for a long time, and suddenly stared at Zhang Han in shock: "This, this... After a long time of trouble, the prince still wants to torment my son!"
"How can I not!" Zhang Han looked left and right, spreading his hands: "O conscience of heaven and earth, am I such a person!?"
"I really plan to ask your son Shaoqing to find a job to ease the relationship with Dian Wei, and if he has merit in the future, he can be recommended to an official position! Wouldn't it be wonderful?"
"This, this..." Jia Xu looked at Zhang Han, then at Dian Wei, waved his hand and said: "I can't believe it, you must be threatening me with my son's life!"
"I want to control you, but you still need to sacrifice your son's life!?" Zhang Han's eyes widened, and his aura immediately increased, like a black tiger staring at Jia Xu's heart.
This sense of urgency and crisis made him feel frightened for a moment. His heart seemed to be suspended, and it seemed as if he was falling into the abyss. He was nowhere to be found, and even his beard was silent.
"That's true, that's not necessary..." Jia Xu lowered his head in shame and did not dare to say more. If Zhang Han and Dian Wei were provoked to mess with him, it would be even more difficult.
"Then it's settled," Zhang Han glanced decisively left and right, "From tomorrow on, let your son go to Shaoqing's Mansion, um... with Ji Boxiao."
"What is your son's name?"
Jia Xu sighed, as if accepting the matter, and said, "My name is Jia Ji."
"What's fake?!" Zhang Han blinked and said happily: "Then Ji Boxiao is the right one."
With this name, I will be absolutely civilized from now on. I will never add the character "Ba" to your son's name.
"Well, Jia Jier will come to the house tomorrow and she will not treat him badly. As for his grudge with Dian Wei, hey...it will get better in the future."
Zhang Han asked Jia Xu to get into the carriage, said a few words of comfort, and asked about the recent military reports.
When they came to pick up Jia Xu, they actually sorted out the military situation, and then sent them to the Prime Minister's Mansion and Cao Cao to report, and also discussed many major military matters.
When talking about business, Jia Xu looked solemn and sat upright and said: "There is one thing that is more urgent. This winter, there have been frequent refugees, so epidemics are rampant. I have found out in the camp that thousands of villagers have suffered disasters thirty miles away."
"What do you think? How should you make a decision? Or...do you have any choice?"
"Yes!" Zhang Han's eyes lit up and he was obviously very happy. "This is indeed good news. Come on, go see the Prime Minister immediately! I have a bold idea!"
