Xu Qing looked at Old General Liu in front of him and asked, "Why is Old General Liu here too?"
Old General Liu shook the wine jar in his hand and said, "Come and give this old guy a gift."
Old General Liu and Zhao Wennai were the only two remaining elder-level figures in the Chu Kingdom. They successfully sent away the two emperors, but at this time only Old General Liu was left working hard to see off the third emperor.
Old General Liu is the confidence of the military generals, while Zhao Wen is the confidence of the civilian officials.
Xu Qing looked at General Liu and said, "Why don't you go inside, General Liu?"
Old General Liu shook his head and said: "Back in the court, this old boy relied on his ability to write and write, but he had the air of being a scholar. He often quarreled and quarreled with me. Now I won't get in his way.
Eye-catching."
Xu Qing looked at Old General Liu and remained silent.
Old General Liu drank a large sip of wine and continued: "At first I thought this old boy's mumbling was annoying, but now that I think about it, I can no longer hear his voice. I'm a little uncomfortable with it."
As he spoke, Old General Liu was about to take another sip of wine, but he only poured half a sip and there was no more drop of wine.
Old General Liu threw the wine jar casually onto a large stone placed beside the tree as an ornament, and it immediately scattered into pieces.
"It's a pity that the wine belt is short." Old General Liu turned to Xu Qing at this time and said: "I heard that you have good wine somewhere, take me to have a good drink."
"This..." Xu Qing hesitated...
Old General Liu looked at Xu Qing's squirming look and asked, "What? Are you still worried that I can't afford the drink money?"
Xu Qing shook his head and said: "It's not because of the problem of drinking money. The old general is now the only remaining veteran of our Chu country. If you continue to drink like this when you are old, I'm afraid your health..."
Old General Liu glanced at Xu Qing and said: "What you said is just like that old boy Zhao Wen. More than ten years ago, he advised me to drink less alcohol and more tea, and to read more poems and books to cultivate my sentiments for a long time."
Xu Qing agreed: "You see, the Grand Tutor said this for your own good."
Old General Liu chuckled and said: "Zhao Wen spent a lot of time at home reading poems and books, making warm water and making tea. Now he is about to be buried. Many rotten Confucian scholars came to persuade me at the beginning, but now they are one step ahead of me.
Go, boy, do you want to persuade me now?"
When Xu Qing heard what General Liu said, he immediately tensed up and shook his head quickly: "Don't dare, please, Old General..."
Old General Liu's current record is terrible enough, so Xu Qing will not go over and add to Old General Liu's efforts.
Seeing Xu Qing who was so aware of current affairs, General Liu nodded with satisfaction and followed Xu Qing with his hands behind his back.
At this moment, Xiao Ye came over and said: "Brother Xu, Old General Liu, you..."
When Old General Liu saw Xiao Ye coming over, he stopped and yelled, patted him on the shoulder and asked, "How is it inside?"
Xiao Ye said: "The emperor said that Taifu Zhao was a national scholar and he was buried with national rites."
"National Scholar." Old General Liu laughed when he heard this: "Although this old guy is annoying with his mumbling, his achievements are outstanding. Winning a national scholar can be regarded as a worthy death. I don't know if I should die properly."
He is called a scholar of the country."
Xiao Ye quickly said: "Old General Liu is the pillar of the country and will surely live a long life."
Old General Liu waved his hand when he heard this: "Even if you live a hundred years, I don't have many years to live at my age."
Having said this, General Liu looked at Xiao Ye, and after some thought, he said: "By the way, when I die, it will be your turn to take charge, right? You have to get it for me when I die.
Is he called a national scholar?"
Xiao Ye pursed his lips: "Old general, do you have to compare yourself with death and burial?"
Old General Liu put his hands behind his back and hummed: "Beat, of course, the old guy has been fighting with me all his life, and he died as a national scholar? How is I worse than him?"
Xiao Ye didn't dare to refuse, so he had to clasp his fists and agree.
Old General Liu then nodded: "Let's go, there are too many people here. I don't like so many people crying and screaming. Come and pay homage to him after he is buried in the ground. By the way, Xu Qing, you brat will do it then."
You have to prepare a jar of very strong wine for me. This old guy has never drank wine in his life, so I must force him to try it this time."
Xu Qing said: "It all depends on General Liu."
Xu Qing and Xiao Ye stood on the left and right of Old General Liu, and the three of them slowly walked out the door.
Old General Liu said as he walked: "I heard that His Majesty chose your boy to be the deputy peace envoy?"
Xu Qing said: "That's it."
Old General Liu nodded and said, "His Majesty has released you, a profiteer, and the money will not be reduced by then."
Xu Qing said with a dark look on his face: "Old general, this junior is really not a profiteer..."
Old General Liu left at this time not because of the large number of people. Although Old General Liu likes liveliness as a soldier as he gets older, he still likes a carefree and carefree atmosphere. Now a group of literati are there, one by one, writing a sour and half-hearted eulogy in an atmosphere of mourning.
It really made General Liu feel a little uncomfortable.
It's better to leave first and find a place to have a nice drink.

Andinghou Mansion
Xuan'er was playing happily with Xiao Ruxue in the yard, a cute and cute little maid, and a naughty and arrogant little princess. They finished making snow sculptures and making snowmen.
At this moment, Xuan'er and Xiao Ruxue saw Xu Qing dangling outside being helped in by two maids from outside the house, and hurriedly ran over to catch him.
Xiao Ruxue smelled the strong smell of alcohol on Xu Qing's body and said to Xuan'er beside her: "He drank again."
Xuan'er blushed and said, "My uncle was drunk last time, and he liked to pinch his hands..."
Xiao Ruxue suddenly realized: "I remembered, I drank with Xiao Ye last time. Xiao Ye was even more drunk than him. I heard that when I woke up in the morning, I was talking in my sleep and wanted to drink with Xu Qing."
Just then Su Qian came out, looked at Xu Qing who was drunk again and sighed: "Xue'er, help him to the Nuan Pavilion, Xuan'er will make a bowl of sobering soup."
Xiao Ruxue helped Xu Qing to the bed in Nuange and volunteered: "Sister Su, I will go to the kitchen to help Xuan'er make hangover soup."
After saying that, he ran out in a hurry.
Xu Qing lay on the bed, pulled off her clothes, kicked the quilt and murmured with her eyes closed: "Madam... I'm so hot..."
Su Qian pulled Xu Qing's hand that was holding the clothes away with one hand, put the other hand on Xu Qing's cheek, and used her cold bare hands to cool him down. Xu Qing immediately became more honest.
This time he was even more drunk than last time. Su Qian could now understand why Princess Xian wanted to control King Xian's wine. The smell of drunk people was indeed unpleasant.
But then again, if he doesn’t smell good, he is the husband he chose, so what else can he do?
I can only take good care of him...
Xuan'er came in with a bowl of hangover soup. Su Qian looked at Xu Qing's slightly undulating lips, then looked at the hangover soup in Xuan'er's hand, sighed again and said, "Put it here, I'll feed it later.
