It was already late at night when Chang Yu left the palace, but Chang's mansion was very lively. Chen Wangting, Jiang Fa, Su Chenghuang's family of three, Qiao Sanxiu's family of three, Wuzhong and his wife, Song Luoshu and his wife, Hao Yaoqi, Ji Jike, and Jinyiwei Commander
Wu Mengming and even the Red Lady gathered here.
eat hot pot!
The spicy and fungus soup at the bottom of the pot satisfies both tastes of those who can eat spicy food and those who can't. There are almost no vegetables in winter these days, but there are some in the palace. Of course, the main ingredient is mutton. There are also various combinations of dipping dishes, but Chang Yu's favorite is still
Garlic sesame oil.
How can you eat hot pot without beer? Well, there is really no beer these days, so let’s go to a rice bar. In these famine years, rice wine is rare in the world, but there is it in the palace!
This was a family banquet. Everyone prepared the ingredients by themselves and waited for Chang Yu to come back. They chatted and waited until the middle of the night. Finally, the real owner arrived and started this hot pot banquet to cleanse Chang Yu from the dust. Although it was not as good as that of ordinary people in later generations.
The hot pot is rich in ingredients, but it is considered extremely luxurious in this era when ordinary people don't even have to chew tree bark, and they mainly eat fresh. After all, although hot pot has a long history and was very common in the Ming Dynasty and even became a palace dish, this hot pot's
The taste and ingredients are very different, very different from today's and closer to future generations.
Of course, eating and drinking is just an excuse. The most important thing is that everyone gets together to have a short time and have a good time. Everyone here is close to Chang Yu. They don’t talk about government affairs or military matters. They talk about idle gossip. Everyone listens to Chang Yu.
Yu talked about patrolling the border, and Chang Yu asked them about interesting stories in the capital. Even though it was late at night, everyone became more interested.
"Luo Yu has made you fat during this period. As a martial artist, you have very poor self-discipline." After drinking for three rounds, Chang Yu scolded Wuzhong with a smile. The guy chuckled: "Maybe you have poor self-discipline.
I haven’t lost my kung fu and it’s better than before. It’s more than enough to take care of adults!”
If an outsider heard this, it would be shocking. However, Chang Yu and this group of personal attendants all get along like brothers and are not so strict. Everyone usually loves to watch them fight, but today Chang Yu listened to Wu
Although he was being teased, he did not show his teeth and claws to deal with him. Instead, he smiled and said: "Don't be arrogant. It is really difficult for our family to deal with it now, but we have found a helper to deal with it. If you can beat him, then come back and yell again."
Wuzhong curled his lips: "I am a martial artist in a humble position, and I am only good at martial arts. I am confident that this skill is not bad. I have always punished others, and I have never been punished by anyone." After saying this, he also said to Chen Wangting, Jiang Fa and Qiao San
Xiu Gonggong: "Of course I admire the skills of these masters."
Moreover, Chang Yu rolled his eyes: "After two ounces of wine, I felt that I was invincible."
Wuzhong laughed loudly: "I dare not say that I am invincible in the world, but I did not get the title of No. 1 in the East Factory by myself." Seeing the proud look on his face, Chang Yu really wanted to kick him: "Today
Has the little Taoist nun who came back with me seen you?"
Wuzhong shook his head: "I heard that the Governor picked up another Taoist priest. It's just that she locked herself in the room and didn't see her. But Niubi was very jealous." He pointed at Li Muchian.
Li Muxian made a sound and rolled his eyes: "Master Taoist, I have a high level of cultivation, how can I be jealous of a Taoist boy?" Then he suddenly raised his eyebrows: "The Governor has no white men under his command, so why is this Taoist boy so special?"
place".
Chang Yu smiled and said nothing, and gave Wuzhong a meaningful look.
Wu Zhong looked stunned: "Could it be that the Governor said that Taoist boy was here to deal with me? Oh!"
Everyone laughed and didn't believe it. Chang Yu didn't explain. He raised his glass and said to Wu Zhong, "Just because of your temper, I respect you as a man. I hope you can still come out when you are beaten in the future. But don't worry.
You are going to accompany Weiwei on a long journey soon, and I will not let him beat you first."
"It's hard to say who will beat whom." Wu Zhong stood up and raised his glass: "I hope you can still laugh when you look back."
Chang Yu laughed loudly: "I admire your confidence." He turned to Song Luoyu and said, "Luoyu, don't feel bad if he gets beaten later."
Song Luoyu chuckled: "He's thick-skinned, so it doesn't matter if he's beaten."
"No, he won't feel it if I beat him lightly." Chang Yu said and was about to have a drink with Song Luoyu but found that there was no wine glass in front of him. This was not in line with the style of a heroine. In the past, Song Luoyu was no worse at drinking than men, so he said: "A heroine
After all, he is the husband and the godson... Hey, Luo Yu, couldn't you..." Chang Yu suddenly thought of something, Song Luoyu's face turned red and nodded slightly, Chang Yu stood up with a cry, raised his legs and pushed Wuzhong next to him.
He was kicked to the ground. Everyone was startled at first, and then burst into laughter.
"Great, great!" Chang Yu was overjoyed. Song Luoyu was pregnant, but he was as happy as a father. But Wu Zhong, who was kicked to the ground, was confused as to why he was kicked inexplicably!
"Whether it's a boy or a girl, you must recognize me as your godfather when you give birth!" Chang Yu didn't know why he was so happy. Anyway, he was very happy. When Wuzhong and his wife heard this, they were also overjoyed and said ok, ok.
.
"Where's the princess?"
Chang Yu suddenly looked at Zhu Yan again, and saw that she was also blushing and nodded slightly. Next to him, Song Luoshu's mouth opened wide. Chang Yu clasped his hands and was overjoyed: "Wonderful, this one should be regarded as a godfather." Song Luoshu and his wife quickly agreed.
Chang Yu suddenly frowned again: "This may not work. After all, the princess belongs to Prince Heng's Mansion in Qingzhou." He was worried about the negative impact. After all, the prince's grandson recognized a eunuch as his godfather...
"It's fine that my husband and I have agreed, and others can't say anything," Zhu Yan said quickly, and everyone agreed with Chang Yule's grin: "Although our family cannot marry and have children, we still have three children!" (Gao Jie's son!)
Gao Yuanjue is also Chang Yu’s godson)
The two brides were pregnant and recognized their relationship with Chang Yu. Everyone found a happy excuse to congratulate each other and drank a lot of wine. Even the rice wine made Chang Yu a little drunk: "I thought I could spend the New Year in the capital.
Now it seems that this is no longer possible.”
"Do we have to travel far away?" Li Muxian raised his eyebrows: "North or west?" He didn't know about the rebellion in Yunnan yet.
"Nanbian" Chang Yu sighed, and Li Muchian said: "Zuo Liangyu?"
"You are so big, Yunnan," Chang Yu laughed and scolded, while Li Muchian was confused: "What's wrong with Yunnan?"
"We are not talking about government affairs at the dinner table. We will talk about it later. You should also make arrangements to go south with the governor." Chang Yu said and said to Luo Yu: "You should not let Mr. Wu follow you because you are pregnant, but the journey is long."
If you are not satisfied with me, I need him to overcome obstacles, and there is still military merit to be gained, so I will call some maids from the palace to serve you, and he will be back in three months at most."
"The Governor" Song Luoyu stood up and bowed: "Yu Gong and Wuzhong are all under your command. Yu and privately we have already regarded you as family, so we must go with Gong and Wuzhong."
Looking at Song Luoshu: "Also, please bring my brother with you."
Song Luoyu was a very good sister, and she always dreamed of making her brother stand out and honor his ancestors. So when he heard that there was military glory to be gained in the south, he took it upon himself to make the decision for Song Luoshu. Zhu Yan happened to think so too, so she stood up to plead.
Chang Yu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Buy one, get one free, it's hard for our family to refuse." The two couples were naturally very happy.
"It's just that you won't be able to spend the first year of your marriage together. Don't scold me in your heart." Several people quickly shook their heads, saying that they absolutely would not, but Chang Yu always felt a little regretful in his heart, but
It is indeed very dangerous to go south. Going to Wuzhong is equivalent to wearing a bulletproof vest. Of course, after Yu Gong gave the order, she had to follow Song Luoyu, who was pregnant, but how could he do such a thing?
After all, these people are his family and brothers.
Looking over everyone one by one, Chang Yu felt endless emotions in his heart. After drinking, he became very emotional. He told Guo'er to be obedient at home, and asked Chen Wangting and Jiang Fa to return to their hometown to visit relatives, but the two refused to behave as usual.
Chen Wangting thought that since his two nephews had gone back, it was unnecessary for him to go back. Moreover, he had not married at this time and it would not matter if he did not go back (Chen fled for murder in his early years and was invited just after he returned to his hometown). Jiang Fa was originally helpless.
The duckweed root is the same wherever it is.
Chang Yu, however, did not rush to respond to them. Instead, he suddenly said to Qiao Heling: "Come here and kowtow to me."
Qiao Heling was obedient and kowtowed three times to Chang Yu without asking why.
"I can't exempt you from being away from the capital during the Chinese New Year. Of course, I can't exempt you from the new year's money. We gave it to you in advance." Chang Yu asked Lao Hu to take a gold ingot and give it to Qiao Heling, but Qiao Sanxiu Liang
Frankly speaking, it's too expensive to have.
"If that's the case, then this is the gift that the governor gave to his godson." Chang Yu said this, and Qiao Sanxiu and his wife were overjoyed to refuse. Everyone hurriedly congratulated, and asked Qiao Heling to kneel down and kowtow to invite tea again, adding a set of etiquette.
Did it again.
No wonder the power supervisors in the past liked to adopt godsons. It turns out that this thing is addictive, Chang Yu thought to himself, but in the past, the godsons of those power supervisors were mostly officials who were either rich or noble, but his own godsons were all children.
Two of them were not born yet.
This hot pot banquet lasted until three o'clock in the morning. Everyone didn't need to go home to Chang's Mansion. They just tidied up the guest room and rested. The red lady, Li Muchian and Wu Mengming went to Chang Yu's study. They wanted to
