"Well, it's so damn comfortable! After being on the boat for a long time, I still feel as solid as sleeping on the ground!"
Sitting up from the bed and stretching, Chai Shaomi stared around, but could only see darkness.
"Why is it so dark? When did you sleep this time?" Chai Shaogang scratched his head and muttered to himself on the bed, then heard the door open, and Xiaodong peeked through the crack of the open door.
"Hey, who is that? I know you! What time is it now?"
By the light coming in from outside, Chai Shao recognized that this was Xiao Han's personal guard, so he yawned and asked.
"Go back to the Chief Manager, it's already midnight!"
Xiaodong popped his head in when he heard some movement in the room. When he saw that Chai Shao had woken up, his face suddenly lit up with joy and he quickly answered.
Alas, man finally wakes up, and he is finally liberated!
At first, he was ordered to wait here for Chai Shao to wake up. He thought it was a good job, but he ended up waiting for several hours. Listening to the loud snoring in the room, he couldn't fall asleep. He almost died of boredom squatting outside!
"It's time? So soon?"
Regardless of Xiaodong who was secretly happy, Chai Shao couldn't help but stretched out his hands to rub his belly when he heard that it was already Xu Shi.
Well, that’s right, it feels like I haven’t eaten for a day, grunting.
Xiaodong was already smart. When he saw Chai Shao's appearance, he immediately reacted. He immediately went into the room and lit the candle. At the same time, he said with a flattering smile: "General Manager Chai, my Marquis has prepared a banquet and is waiting for you to come over!"
"Oh? Haha! I happen to be hungry! Let's go!" Chai Shaowen was immediately happy when he heard that there was something to eat. He got out of bed and was about to follow Xiaodong out when he suddenly thought of something and stopped and asked:
"By the way, where are those two things?"
"Those two? Goods?"
Xiaodong was stunned. He naturally knew who the "goods" Chai Shao asked was referring to, but there was probably no one in the world who could call the prince a "goods".
"Ahem! Those two..."
His mind was still a little confused. Xiaodong almost shouted the word "goods" along with Chai Shao. Fortunately, he reacted at the critical moment. He suddenly broke out in a cold sweat and quickly changed his words: "Prince Li and Wu Shangshu haven't woken up yet."
When Chai Shao heard this, he raised his thick eyebrows and said, "Huh? How long will these two lazy idiots sleep? Take me to call them!"
So, there was a lot of noise at the beginning, because the way Chai Shao called people was exactly the same as how some people get injured, raising his legs...kicking the door!
But his feet were obviously much stronger than those of Xiao Han and Xiaodong. He kicked two doors and still showed no signs of injury.
The bright moon hangs high, and the lanterns begin to shine.
The cool evening breeze blew through the night sky, seeming to blow away all the sultry heat of the day.
In the courtyard of Xiao Mansion, a huge round table is placed under the open air.
The bright moon in the sky is reflected in the white wine cup, making people feel drunk even before they start drinking.
Xiao Han did not invite anyone else to this unexpected dinner.
After all, there is only one person with the same status as Li Xiaogong in Yangzhou city, Sun Simiao, and even Yin Can is not qualified.
As for Lao Sun, he has been particularly irritable recently, especially not having a good look towards Xiao Han.
Xiao Han would not ask for trouble by looking for him. At most, he would ask the fat cook to make an extra portion of the meal and deliver it to him!
Xue Pan shyly came out to see Li just now.
Li Xiaogong is Li Shimin's cousin, and her brother Xue Shou has a very close relationship with Li Shimin, so she also knows Li Xiaogong.
It would be rude not to come out to meet an old friend when he came to visit, so she quietly left after seeing her.
On such occasions, it is still inappropriate for women to be present.
The dishes were quickly served and the wine was refilled.
On the huge table, the four people started staring at each other.
"Ahem, Xiao Han, speak!" Chai Shao, who was so greedy with the dishes in front of him, who was a little impatient with waiting, finally couldn't help but nuzzled at Xiao Han.
When Xiao Han saw this, he just smiled awkwardly.
Although he is the owner of this place, the other three, one is the prince and the other is the Duke, also serve as ministers.
Even Chai Shao, whom I was most familiar with, was seriously the Prince Consort of the Tang Dynasty, and also concurrently served as the Commander-in-Chief of the Army and Horses.
He is just a little prince, and he has no right to be the first to speak.
Xiao Han's hesitant look also caught the eyes of several people present.
Sitting opposite him was Li Xiaogong, a general, but his temperament was not as rough as that of Cheng Yaojin and Liu Hongji. Instead, he looked like a scholar.
Seeing this, he just smiled and said: "Xiao Hou, you are the master here, please tell me what the regulations are tonight."
"This is not good..." Xiao Han blushed a little.
Chai Shao stared at him angrily: "What's wrong? If I ask you to say it, just say it!"
Seeing this, Xiao Han had no choice but to stand up, holding a glass of wine in his hand and said: "This...um...how many..."
Then, he didn't say the next sentence for a long time.
Chai Shao was still waiting to eat. Seeing that Xiao Han hesitated for a long time without saying anything, he suddenly became anxious and asked with a glare: "What on earth are you going to say?"
"I said we don't have any rules here. Just eat and drink well! Drink well and eat well! That's all!"
After being glared at by Chai Shao, Xiao Han became nervous and subconsciously took out the words for a banquet in the village.
After hearing this, Li Xiaogong and Samurai Yi looked at each other, but in the end they laughed generously and toasted together.
"Drink victory!"
"It's all done. The first cup, no one wants to raise fish for me, Lao Chai!"
"Haha, done it, done it!"
Otherwise they all say: wine is a powerful tool for communication between men!
After just a few glasses of wine, several people who were strangers suddenly became familiar with each other.
Chai Shao chatted wildly at the wine table, winking at Xiao Han from time to time, and drinking the two of them a few drinks together, which made the atmosphere extremely cheerful.
"Wu Shangshu, are you going to Jiangnan too?"
After three rounds of wine and five tastes of food, Xiao Han's face turned red after drinking, and he spoke more casually, unlike before, who only cared about silly fun.
Samurai Yan's drinking capacity is good, but compared with Xiao Han, the difference is really huge!
Xiao Han was a little drunk, and he was even more drunk. When he heard the question to himself, he put the wine glass on the table and laughed loudly: "Xiao Hou, don't call me Minister, I am no longer Minister of the Ministry of Industry.
"
"Ah? You resigned?" Xiao Han was stunned, and his mind was a little confused. Can he still resign at this time? Can the emperor approve it? There are no workers' associations these days, and even if there were, they probably wouldn't be so bold as to take charge.
On the emperor’s head!
Chai Shao next to him was concentrating on dealing with a large piece of ox tail bone. After hearing this, he raised his head and struggled to swallow the meat in his mouth: "Don't listen to Lao Wu's nonsense. Now he has been appointed by the emperor as the governor of Lizhou and is in charge of Shu.
He is an out-and-out feudal official, much better than the minister of the Ministry of Industry who is always being criticized!"
