"Would you like to visit another house?"
He Li nodded.
Before leaving, he looked back at the three children of the family.
In the child's eyes, there seemed to be the last trace of expectation, which was also wiped out.
He Li sighed in his heart, left this house, and followed Zhao Taichu to another military household not far away.
The house of this military family looks much better, and there is a small courtyard.
There are a lot of poultry raised in the small courtyard. From the outside of the courtyard, the furniture layout of this family is no worse than that in the city.
In the courtyard, there is a woman and a child.
However, the two looked much more relaxed, completely different from the three children they had seen before.
Zhao Taichu introduced:
"This family is also a military household under my command. They are the most industrious and work hard on weekdays, so their family background is also the best."
"Look, Brother He, I didn't lie to you, did I?"
"Every military household in my place is living a good life, there is nothing messy about it..."
"Do you want to go into the yard and have a look?"
At this time, the woman in the yard looked out and happened to see He Li.
The woman was not afraid of life, but smiled and nodded.
He Li nodded to the woman, then said:
"Since the man of her family is not at home, we a group of elders should not go in, so as not to provoke people's tongues."
"Thank you Brother Zhao for leading the way."
Zhao Taichu laughed and said:
"Where is it, brother He is responsible for the important task of the governor's mansion, and his subordinate is Yangzhou Weiqianhu, so he must do his best to help."
"Why, Brother He, do you want to take a walk and see for yourself?"
He Li shook his head and said seriously:
"I've already seen it. The so-called incident of the military household being oppressed is nothing but a false accusation."
"Zhao Qianhu, all the military households here live and work in peace and contentment, without any problems."
"After I go back, I will report the results of this investigation to the Governor's Mansion."
Done.
Go to the entrance of the village.
Facing He Li's answer, Zhao Taichu was very satisfied.
He immediately chased after him, and laughed softly:
"Brother He doesn't have to rush back."
"My little brother has already prepared a banquet at a restaurant in the north of the city. I wonder if Brother He would do me a favor?"
He Li originally wanted to refuse.
But then think about it.
Wouldn't it be better for His Majesty to carry out the next round of actions by sending Zhao Taichu away in this way?
then.
He Li pretended to think about it, nodded and said:
"Okay, but I can't drink much..."
"Don't worry, drinking is the second priority," Zhao Taichu saw that He Li agreed, and quickly said, "Brother He came all the way here. As the host, the main thing is to treat Brother He well."
In his words, he deliberately emphasized the tone of the word "entertainment".
He Li naturally knew that Zhao Taichu wanted to buy him off.
He didn't say much, just nodded, and followed Zhao Taichu to the north of Yangzhou City.
Just when everyone was riding back to Yangzhou on horseback.
Zhu Yuanzhang took Zhu Xiongying with him, and the two appeared at the gate of Haining Gate in the east of the city.
In Lao Zhu's hand, he was also leading a fine horse.
This is the horse he brought back on a special trip back to Sword Immortal Pavilion.
"Grandpa, if you go on a stroll, you'll be out of Yangzhou City?"
Zhu Xiongying looked at the city gate and reminded him.
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't look surprised, and said:
"Get out of the city as soon as you leave the city. We need to get back as soon as possible before the gate of the city is closed."
"We estimate the time, He Li's side should be almost here..."
"It's time for us to really find out."
Zhu Xiongying looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and said curiously:
"Grandpa, do you plan to ask He Li to investigate in the open, and then let's investigate in secret?"
Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and said:
"Yes, as expected of our grandson, you can understand it at a glance."
"Let's ask He Li to scare the snakes first, in order to let the thousand households think that the investigation by the imperial court is over, so they can relax their vigilance..."
"At that time, we, grandpa and grandson, will go to the military households for a private visit... we will definitely see many things that we can't see in normal times!"
Zhu Yuanzhang was excited, but Zhu Xiongying said:
"But we don't know where those military households live..."
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said:
"It's simple. We have already sent people to investigate. Grandpa knows the exact location."
"When we get out of the city, the two of us will go on horseback, and we will be there soon."
"My dear grandson, when we get to the place, let's pretend to be businessmen who accidentally got lost. Don't let it slip!"
Zhu Xiongying shook his head and said:
"Don't worry, grandson knows."
……
the other side.
North of the city.
In a restaurant.
It's not time for dinner though.
But in the best private room of the restaurant, Zhao Taichu was leading several other thousand households from Yangzhou Wei to pour wine for He Li.
Zhao Taichu brought a jar full of wine, put down a big bowl in front of He Li, and said with a smile:
"Come on, come on, Commander-in-Chief today is busy with official duties, so he asked some of our brothers to take his place and entertain He Qianhu from the capital."
"Brother He, I'll fill you up with a bowl first."
As he spoke, he began pouring wine boldly.
He Li looked at it, waved his hands again and again and said:
"Is this going to drink so much?"
"I really can't drink, please forgive me."
Among them is a thousand households:
"Brother He, if you say that, you will be out of your sight."
"Who doesn't know that the brothers of the Twelve Guards in the capital are all very skilled and have an extraordinary capacity for alcohol?"
"Thousands of households in our place can drink a big bowl to start the show. It's too weird for you not to drink it."
Immediately, someone shouted:
"That's it!"
"Brother He, please don't dislike the brothers, and drink a bowl happily!"
Facing the booing of the crowd.
He Li was a little helpless.
It's not like he can't drink.
in contrast.
He's a pretty good drinker.
But no matter how good the drinking capacity is, it won't be able to hold back a few people fighting to persuade them to drink!
With today's posture, it is clear at a glance that the few Yangzhou Qianhu present here want to get themselves drunk.
They all call colleagues very affectionately, calling them brothers and sisters.
Actually...
These people must want to get themselves drunk to see what they are.
If I am drunk, I will definitely miss something!
He Li's mouth became bitter when he thought that Long Live God and the eldest grandson of the emperor might still be on their way to investigate the military households.
"Well, my younger brother is here today. It is our fate to meet all the brothers of Yangzhou Wei."
"In that case, then I'd rather be respectful than obedient, drink a bowl first, and talk about respect!"
Done.
He Li picked up the big bowl on the table and drank it all in one gulp!
"it is good!"
"happy!"
Everyone applauded, hugged the wine jar, and started pouring wine for themselves.
The scene was very lively for a while.
Chapter 74
Three rounds of wine.
He Li was already a little drunk.
He looked at the Qianhu at this table, and three of them were already lying on the ground after being drunk by him.
Sitting, only Zhao Taichu and another elderly Qianhu were left.
Zhao Taichu kicked the people on the ground with his boots, and said with a smile:
"It's really useless. You just got down after drinking a few bowls?"
"I'm not afraid that Brother He will laugh at you!"
He Li waved his hand, beckoning him to sit down, and said:
"Brother Zhao, there's no need to be like this. Everyone's drinking capacity is different. This wine smells good, but it has a lot of stamina..."
"It's just that I'm in a daze right now, no wonder they are."
As he spoke, his voice became smaller and smaller, as if he was about to faint.
