Drunk Yangzhou

Xiao Ge was seldom drunk, this time he slept until the sky was bright.Outside the window is an ancient pine tree with messy roots, and birds hide among the branches, playing and singing.Xiao Ge woke up with the morning light, his mind was still a little dazed, he looked down at Wen Zheng who was leaning over his bed, and sat up distressed: "Feng Chi...you don't have to guard me all night."

Wen Zheng slept lightly, felt Xiao Ge's movements, and woke up now.He straightened up, thinking of what happened last night, his heart seemed to be blocked by a big rock.The lord whom I tried my best to help and cherish at the top of my heart was casually insulted and desecrated by that shameless Fu Yiting... Thinking of this, Wen Zheng couldn't help but hate and annoyed: "My lord, this matter is all Fengchi's fault, we This step should not have been taken."

Xiao Ge got off the Arhat bed and walked to the screen, "Feng Chi, I was still thinking at the banquet yesterday, although your move is dangerous, it is extremely high."

He rinsed his mouth with green salt, "If this trip to Lishan is successful, we will join hands with the King of Qin to solve the current difficulty of King Yu's crime in the East; The transfer of power to Qinbei is also beneficial to our expansion in Fujian."

"That being said, Fengchi can't see you being wronged like this!" Wen Zheng sighed, his handsome brows furrowed tightly.

Xiao Ge chuckled, "It's the first time I've seen such a brazen person like him... If I can't even stand this kind of grievance, how can I talk about making meritorious deeds!"

In the Yunhe Hall on the east side of Yi Palace, Fu Yiting sat on the top chair carelessly, with his head thrown back on his head, his angular face was full of irritability, "Old man, have you said enough?"

"You are really getting more and more unruly." The white-haired old man in front of him helplessly threw his tea bowl on the table, "Don't say that your father had friendship with old Xiao Wang, even if he is just an ordinary prince, You shouldn't have gotten him drunk either!"

The people around Fu Yiting were all afraid of his ruthless means and obeyed him. Only this Li Yuankai was a counselor who had followed the Fu family for more than [-] years. He had a whip handed down from the old prince Fu when he was dying, and beat Fu Yiting from time to time. Discipline... In today's world, only he has such courage and power.

Fu Yiting thought to himself, you still don't know what kind of joke Zheng Qian made with him.He thought of Xiao Ge's embarrassed expression last night, and felt relieved for no reason.

Seeing that he didn't repent, Li Yuankai sighed with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "I'm just one day late, and you made such a mess! I'll see how you end up!"

"Didn't the father give you a feather whip? Take it out and beat me up, I have no objection." Fu Yiting looked indifferent.

Of course, Li Yuankai couldn't really whip this young and naughty King Qin, not to mention that he couldn't wield the feather whip long ago, so he waved his hand and said, "Things are already like this, let's think about it now." Deal with this Xiao Wang."

Fu Yiting also restrained his contemptuous look, "Before the king of Yu asked us to stand on the sidelines... I agreed. This is indeed the safest strategy, but once the power of the king of Yu expands to the east, our obstacles will become bigger and bigger in the future. "

Li Yuankai nodded and said: "King Xiao is not a cheap lamp. Although his military strength is relatively weak, he is indeed capable of governing the world, and he is praised by Yangzhou for his excellence, which is very popular among the people! The emperor wanted to weaken his strength a long time ago, but The treasury is empty, and there is no silver at all, so the court hinted that King Yu would go east."

"After all, King Yu is the prince of the same clan of Great Xia. The imperial court is weak, so we can only rely on King Yu." Fu Yiting curled his lips, "This emperor is really fucking useless."

"You should know the art of combining vertical and horizontal lines. The right way is to make friends at a distance and attack at a distance! Listen to King Xiao's conditions today. If it is beneficial to us, King Yu can ignore it." Li Yuankai turned the palm of his hand, "Also, remember to hide your edge!"

"You don't need to teach me. The army has already moved to the deep valley." Fu Yiting stood up and stretched his muscles.

A look of approval flashed across Li Yuankai's eyes, and he couldn't help but asked, "Don't be rude to King Xiao again."

"Understood." Fu Yiting walked to the corridor and told his attendants, "Go and ask King Xiao to come over."

Xiao Ge had already had his breakfast, and took a bath again to get rid of the smell of alcohol on his body. The bright moon stone hair crown kept his black hair in place. Move with the pace.He was a very trim person, everything was neatly tidied up, and then he followed his attendants to Yunhe Hall.

Fu Yiting was standing in the inner hall waiting, Xiao Ge stepped in, saw the luxurious and exquisite decorations in the hall, and the scent of orchid musk and rosin lingered in his nose, he felt extravagant, the man by the window was wearing black narrow sleeves Collared brocade robe, with only a solid-color jade belt hook at the waist, it was not deliberately decorated like yesterday, but instead looked sassy and neat, facing the wind and jade trees.

"Prince Xiao? Come, this way please!" Fu Yiting turned around and saw Xiao Ge, trying to make himself smile sincerely, showing the sharp corners of two left and right canine teeth under his lips.

Xiao Ge sat next to him by the window, the maid served hot tea, and then quietly exited the hall.

"King Qin should understand my reason for coming. Maybe King Yu has already looked for you before me." Xiao Ge didn't bother to circle around with him any more, and simply cut to the chase.

Fu Yiting had a cynical smile on his face, "Fu Mou is no more ambitious than King Xiao to pursue a great cause, and he has the vision to save lives and burn people. I just want to be a local emperor in Qinbei, with a warm fragrance and soft jade in my arms, admiring the moon and playing the piano, Beating horses and boiling eagles..."

"I know that the King of Qin has no intention of getting involved in the dispute, so my condition is very simple - if the King of Yu commits a crime in the east, the noble soldiers only need to be restrained on the west side."

"A little restraint? To put it lightly!" Fu Yiting sneered: "Is Xiao Wang forcing Fu to rebel?"

"Senior's friendship is here, and Qin Wang wants to be alone, I'm afraid it's not so easy." Xiao Ge smiled softly, using the bowl cover to skim the tea powder, "If Yangzhou can appease this disaster, I will also pay 50 taels Silver is used as a gift of thanks. Or, if the King of Qin takes the opportunity to enter Henan, the land in Luoyang can be obtained at his fingertips... I am afraid that such a cheap thing is rare in the world, and the King of Qin has to think about it."

Fu Yiting's heart skipped a beat, the King of Yu wanted to give him 40 taels of silver as military pay, but Xiao Ge was more generous, the land of Huaizuo is really rich!He intends to keep all the money at both ends!

Fu Yiting put the tea bowl on the case, and pretended to be kind and warned: "Of course I am happy to swallow this piece of fat. It's just... Fu is a real villain. Does Prince Xiao want to seek skin from a tiger?"

Of course Xiao Ge knew what kind of virtue he was, but he still held the corners of his lips lightly, the expression in his eyes was like the morning sun reflecting on the spring water, and the bright moon falling on the waves of the pond, "It's no problem."

The two of them had wishful thinking in their hearts, and they were speechless for a while.The morning breeze is coming, and the clouds and mists in the mountains are lingering into the room along the hollowed out gaps in the floor-to-ceiling round windows of camphor wood. Fu Yiting raised his eyes, and the person opposite was looking sideways at the boundless wind and moon outside the house, from the brow bone to the eyelashes, from the bridge of the nose to the chin. , forming an extremely graceful arc neatly and smoothly, as if carefully crafted, but also as if it was made by nature, and with the white clouds around the knees, it is even more like a fairy.

Fu Yiting withdrew his gaze annoyed, he didn't know this was the first time he lost his mind when he looked at Xiao Ge, this kind of blank gaffe made him feel annoyed and bored.If he wanted to drive Xiao Ge away, it was just a one-sentence matter, but he was reluctant to say it; if he insulted him like Zheng Qian did last night, he would be happy, and Li Yuankai would not be able to pass that test...

There was a fierce battle in Fu Yiting's mind, so he decided to follow Li Yuankai's suggestion, pretending to call Xiao Ge brothers for a few days, and when Xiao Ge returned to Yangzhou... Whether to sit on the sidelines or join forces against Henan, it depends on the current situation.

"Since Qin and Wu are on good terms, Fu can't let the hard work of the first exam go to waste... I agree with your terms." Fu Yiting said reluctantly.

"Then invite Chang Shi to come over and draft the covenant." Xiao Ge smiled.

"Okay." Fu Yiting ordered his attendants to invite Chang Shi Qian Lingcong, and after the covenant was drawn up, he personally affixed the seal of King Qin.

"After I go back, if I need to get in touch again, I will send the letter by flying pigeons." Xiao Ge stood up and straightened the hem of his clothes.

"I'll send King Xiao a messenger." Fu Yiting also got up, and whistled with his finger between his lips. Not long after, a very beautiful eaglet flew in from the round window and landed on Fu Yiting's arm. Its wings are still immature, but its iridescent golden eyes are already full of vigilance and sharpness.

Fu Yiting stroked its forehead, "It's called Li'er, and it can travel thousands of miles a day. You can bring it back to Yangzhou. If there is any matter, it will send a letter."

Seeing the appearance of the little eagle flapping its wings frequently, Xiao Ge liked it very much in his heart. "Then thank King Qin."

"Xiao Wang is too polite—by the way, don't you know Xiao Wang's famous name Gui Geng?"

"Xiao's name is Huaiyu, and he has just completed the weak crown. Where is King Qin?"

"Eighteen, the word Qishao."

"I'm actually two years older than Qishao Chi." Xiao Ge changed his words.

"That's right, Brother Huaijie. One king of Qin, listen to the birth." Fu Yiting said with a smile: "These days, Brother Huaijie, let's have a good rest and play in Qinbei. The soup spring in Lishan is very nourishing. The old capital of Xianyang is also very lively... You have come from thousands of miles, and you must let me do my best as a landlord."

At this time, Xiao Ge didn't have any intention of having fun, besides, Fu Yiting's rude behavior last night was still stuck in his heart like a hidden thorn, he actually didn't bother to be with such a person.But for the plan of going south, and also for the purpose of inquiring about Fu Yiting's strength, Xiao Ge was silent for a while, but still agreed vaguely, "Thank you Qi Shao for your kindness, then Xiao will just disturb you for a few days."

"That couldn't be better." Fu Yiting smiled, with a sly light in his eyes.
