In the evening, Guo Junpan, Pan Chenghu, Su Laochang, Xu Wukun and others arrived one after another after receiving the letter.
At this time, Wang Fan was summoned by Guo Boyi to discuss major military matters, so Zhu Hang went to Guo Jun on his behalf, and Pan Chenghu and the others discussed the matter of incorporating five hundred prisoners into the military envoy's court. In any case, Guo and Pan both met openly.
Everyone is the commander and deputy commander of the five hundred prisoners.
Compared with the previous reluctance and necessity, Guo Junpan and Pan Chenghu learned that Wang Fan's secret envoy Chi Hu had returned to take up an important position. Wang Zhen also regained hope that this time he could directly enter the Supervisory Army Envoy Court in Wang Fan and Zhu.
The two men, Han, were of course full of joy when they served under them.
I don't know when Wang Fan will be able to escape and come back at night. When it gets dark, Wang Zhen orders a banquet to be held first.
Xun Yannian had already transferred eight beautiful maids from his mansion to serve Zhu Hang and his son, as well as Wang Fan, Wang Xuan and his daughter. At this time, they were all wearing cotton clothes and serving drinks in the hall.
Xun Yannian also sent a chef from his family to take care of the dishes. In addition to many high-quality ingredients, Xun Yannian also sent a set of silver tableware. The candle was burned high, lighting up the spacious hall as bright as day. The silver tableware was filled with delicacies.
The plates, cups and cups reflect the charming and transparent luster.
Xun Yannian originally wanted to hire some musicians and luthiers from the workshop to join in the fun. Fortunately, Zhu Hang knew Wang Zhen's temper and refused to let him go. But in this case, the night banquet was much more sumptuous than what Xu Huai and the others had planned to prepare.
Not just a little bit.
No matter whether it was Zhu Hang or Xun Yannian, as officials, they still had contempt for the rough military officials who were merely brave.
Guo Junpan and Pan Chenghu were from Shanzhai after all, and they were not like Zheng Tu who had been very diligent in learning various speaking skills these days. No matter how cautious they spoke, they would inevitably appear vulgar and vulgar.
Therefore, at the beginning of the night banquet, Zhu Hang and Xun Yannian talked to Guo Jun, Pan Chenghu and others to win over him. After that, they mainly gathered around Wang Jun to discuss the elegant affairs of the literati and officials of the dynasty, and discussed poems and songs.
.
Even when discussing the general trend of the world, Guo Junpan, Pan Chenghu and the others still have nothing to say.
They were recruited and placed in Lanzhou. For half a year, no one even explained to them in detail the specific locations of Shuozhou, Yingzhou, and Datong, as well as the surrounding terrain. Even on paper, they didn't know how to talk about it.
Su Laochang is good at these things, but he needs to hide his clumsiness. The main thing is to sit next to Xu Huai with Xu Wukun and whisper about Zhufengtang's subsequent arrangements and adjustments in Lanzhou.
Although Su Laochang and Xu Wukun were surprised that Xu Huai sent Zhou Jing to recall Xu Wuqi at this time, they hoped so at the same time.
Xu Wuqi's forbearance and sacrifices over the years have been enough. Even Su Laochang wanted to seek revenge from the thief Cai Qi for the past, but he did not want Xu Wuqi to take this risk alone.
What's more, although Xu Wuqi's eldest son, Xu Pan, is only thirteen years old, he has already shown amazing talent in learning the Python Knife and Python Gun in the Xu clan's Lutang Hall. He should be given a better environment to grow up.
.
Brothers Zhu Zhi, Zhu Tong and Xun Tingheng all liked to wield swords and guns. Guo Junpan and Pan Chenghu couldn't get close to Zhu Hang and Xun Yannian, so Xiaoyi tried to please these three sons of the aristocratic family.
Xu Huai ignored them, and now there were two "big bandits" who seemed to have higher status and greater reputation. Xiao Yi wanted to please him, and Zhu Zhi, Zhu Tong, and Xun Tingheng naturally took advantage of him.
After drinking for three rounds, Zhu Zhi thought about Lu Xiong and Zheng Tu's words praising Xu Huai's bravery in the afternoon. He felt even more unhappy when he saw Wang Xuan sitting next to Liu Qiong'er but leaning over to talk to Xu Huai at every turn.
Being slightly tipsy, I held a cup in one hand and a pot in the other, walked to Xu Huai, sat down, and said: "Xu Huai, Lu Xiong, and Zheng Tu all said that you are very brave, and you can be called the first in Tongbai Mountain."
One person, two military envoys, Guo and Pan, are not as good as you - today I saw you holding the sword close to your body for most of the day, so you must be very skilled in swordsmanship. I offer you this glass of wine, show off your skills to us, and let us see you.
How much would the unparalleled sword skills of this number one person in Tongbai Mountain be worth to the world?"
The crisis was like a huge stone pressing on his heart. Xu Huai was irritable and turned sideways. He didn't even want to pay attention to a second-generation ancestor like Zhu Zhi.
Xun Tingheng remembered Xu Huai's previous rudeness to his father and son. Seeing that Zhu Zhi could not get off the stage, Xun Tingheng came over drunkenly and pretended to say: "I can also practice boxing and kicking for a few years, so you can give me some advice!"
"Across the table, I thought I was born with supernatural power, so I stretched out my hand to pull Xu Huai out from behind the table.
Seeing Wang Chun's brows furrowed, Xun Yannian hurriedly scolded his son: "Ting Heng, don't be rude to General Xu..."
Before Xun Yannian finished speaking, Xu Huai had already put down his wine glass and stared at Xun Tingheng: "I have a few bad generals under my command, so the sky is so high that I don't know what heroes are in the world? If you want me to give you some advice, then I'll do it first.
Let’s see if you have the qualifications!”
For this kind of role, Xu Huai did not use all his strength, nor did he really want to seriously hurt Xun Tingheng. After speaking, he squatted like a tiger, his seemingly loose shoulders swaying slightly. He did not use real punches, but used
The relatively broad palm struck Xun Tingheng's chest with thunderous force.
Xun Tingheng thought that no matter how bastard Xu Huai was, no matter how violent his temper, he would not be able to take action in front of Wang Zhen, Zhu Hang and his father.
Seeing Xu Huai's palm strike, he was so stunned that he didn't even have time to raise his fist to seal the attack. He felt as if his right chest was hit hard by a giant hammer, and his body flew up involuntarily.
Others saw Xun Tingheng pick up the long case filled with wine and delicacies behind him, and hit it against the pillar behind him. With a "click", the long case was broken into two pieces, and the wine and delicacies flew backwards with a clatter.
, hit the wall behind.
Xun Tingheng was knocked unconscious by a slap. He sat with his back against the pillars of the hall, panting silently, but felt that he could not breathe out, and suspected that he would die in the next moment.
Xu Huai held down his saber, stared at the stern Zhu Zhi and asked: "When I use my sword, I will hurt someone. Since you want to see Tongbaishan's murderous sword skills, I will not dissatisfy you, so as to save you, a waste like you, from being scared to death on the battlefield."
, the person who disgraced your parents!"
"How dare you..." Zhu Zhi screamed, but he saw a lone sword shining in front of his eyes like a full moon. He didn't even think of retreating. His gut felt cold, and he stretched out his hand to wipe away the blood.
Sitting on his butt and howling, "I'm being killed, I'm being killed!"
Not many people saw Xu Huai draw his sword clearly, and when they saw several layers of Zhu Zhi's clothes torn open and his hands covered with blood, their faces turned pale with fright. They didn't know why Xu Huai suddenly had murderous intent.
After a while, Zhu Zhi was seen screaming in the hall, and then he realized that Xu Huai's knife was extremely accurate and only cut through one layer of his belly.
Not to mention Zhu Hang, Xun Yannian was also a person of status and status. Zhu Zhi and Xun Tingheng were rude and provoked trouble, but when beating a dog, it depends on the owner.
What's more, he reprimanded him out loud, and Xu Huai even hurt someone. Why wasn't he angry?
Of course, Zhu Zhi was also scratched by the knife and was scared to death. Xun Yannian suppressed the anger in his heart and looked at Zhu Hang. He wanted to see if Zhu Hang could bear this anger.
Of course Zhu Hang was also angry, and he was trembling with anger.
As the son of Zhu Tan, a former servant, he also married the daughter of the royal family and county prince. He had been raised well and respected over the years. Even if his official career was not very smooth, it was mainly because the family was extremely strict at that time, but no reckless man dared to do so.
So rude in front of him.
Xu Huai ignored Zhu Hang and Xun Yannian, and directly clasped his fists towards Wang Zhen and said:
"These guys have been talking very loudly at this night banquet for a long time, and they are very noisy. Please leave them to me to teach them the art of killing enemies on the battlefield, so as not to make other people laugh at me in the future."
The military embassy is full of useless trash - if they don't want to, the military embassy will not let such trash be left in public!"
Although Wang Fan is the upright military supervisor, Wang Zhen must have said that he wants to drive people out of the military supervisor's palace. Who dares to say that Wang Fan will support him?
The problem is, neither Zhu Hang nor Xun Yannian believed that Wang Zhen would allow Xu Huai, a bastard, to behave so wildly. They all looked at Wang Zhen, waiting for him to drive this bastard out.
The reckless thing is embarrassing.
"Do you really think that you are sure of victory in this Northern Expedition and that you can sing and dance to peace now?"
Wang Zhen also thought that it was a great luck to see Wang Fan today, so he suppressed it until now without having an attack. At this time, when he saw Xu Huai first take action to deal with the two guys who didn't know how to make progress, he pushed the case in front of him and stared at him.
Xun Yannian, who lived in Zhuhang, said in an unceremonious and stern tone,
"Zhu Shizhong died young. I think I am still qualified to teach you two a lesson. At this critical moment, you can spend so much time on the night banquet and have the intention to send your children into the imperial court to plot against Yan.
Gong, have you ever thought about spending time to figure out the flaws in the attack on Yan, and whether the Khitan people are really vulnerable? Have you ever thought about how even if you can successfully capture Yunshuo and other places, what will happen?
Guard against the threat of the Chihu people in the north? The situation is such that the battle to defeat Yan must be fought. It is also the situation that there is no room for mistakes in the battle to defeat Yan. Have you ever thought about it? Especially you, Zhu Hang, you have to supervise the army.
The envoys appoint officials, and the envoys overseeing the army are responsible for the punishments and rewards of the entire army. If the envoys overseeing the army are like this, how can they restrain the military discipline of all the generals of the forbidden army? If you feel that my words are not acceptable, you can
Get out of this yard!"
"Zhu Hang knew he was wrong, so he ordered Zhu Zhi and Zhu Tong to listen to General Xu and teach him." Zhu Hang's face turned green and red after being scolded by Wang Zhen, but he did not dare to refute, he lowered his head and admitted his mistake.
"Dad!" Zhu Zhi finally came back to her senses and screamed unconvinced.
"Shut up, you two brothers can beat General Xu if you can, otherwise I will bear all the anger first." Zhu Hang was also very angry, and now he could only vent his anger on his two useless sons.
Head, tell him to shut up.
Xun Yannian saw that Zhu Hang was like this, not to mention that Wang Zhenqi was about to return, and he would probably enter the cabinet to pay homage to the prime minister, and once again compete with Cai Qing, Wang Qiyong and others. Of course, he did not dare to disobey Wang Zhen, so he could only bite the bullet and turn around to face this person.
Xun Tingheng, who only got up after a while, reprimanded: "From today on, tell General Xu to deal with your dandy temper!"
"Envoy Guo and Envoy Pan, take these two useless trash and follow me to the yard outside - yes, don't leave that Zhu Tong behind either. I'll check whether their basic skills are solid first!" Xu
Huaiyu stood up and faced Guo Jun. Pan Chenghu gave an order and walked out first.
Guo Junpan and Pan Chenghu originally thought that they would collude with Zhu Hang and Xun Yannian from now on, which would make Xu Huai look bad. How could they have imagined that a good night banquet would be tossed by Xu Huai like this, and Zhu Hang and Xun Yannian would not dare to break out?
At this time, how dare they take advantage of the commander and deputy commander? They stood up in a hurry, winked at Zhu Zhi, Zhu Tong, and Xun Tingheng, and told them to go outside to the yard to avoid making it more embarrassing...
