The runaway general of the black-bellied book

After ordering the food that Li Yuze wanted, Fang Yimin added a few more cakes that Li Yuze liked the most and some tea to reduce the heat.

The green tea was brought up first, Li Yuze poured a pot for himself and Fang Yimin each.While Xiao Er retreated, the sound of conversation from the private room next door came over.

"I heard that a few days ago, Zhuojing is going to hold a flower viewing feast! Let me tell you, this flower viewing feast is incredible!"

A young voice sounded: "What's the big deal, isn't it done every spring? I didn't say it, Mr. Xu, when did you become so fussy!"

Li Yuze hadn't stayed in Zhuojing for a long time, and he didn't know much about the ministers in the court.

From these few words, he could only know that the other party's surname was Xu, but he hadn't been able to find out who it was.

That Master Xu gave a "tsk" and retorted: "What do you know! I heard that this flower viewing banquet was proposed by His Majesty! On the surface, it is for viewing flowers, but in fact it is not. The drunkard's intention is not to drink. Think about it, how many years has your majesty been on the throne, our empress and this harem are still empty..."

"Your Majesty Xu's words are wrong." An older voice sounded beside him, "If Your Majesty wants to fill the harem, he will definitely not use such a casual way as a flower viewing banquet. I'm afraid it will be a big fanfare. I think this time ... After all, it is still pulling the red line for the young masters and ladies in Beijing."

Li Yuze raised his eyebrows, feeling a little surprised - the person who spoke was actually someone he was familiar with.

It was Qi Chengye who had been at odds with him.

"Master Qi's words make sense." Master Xu also changed his tone, "However, by taking this opportunity, we can also let the young princes and ladies in the capital meet each other. In my opinion, there are many princes and ladies from famous families in Zhuojing. Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to get married and leave the court. For example, our Jia Heng'er, and the third lady of the Li family..."

Li Yuze:? ? ?

This guy, why did he suddenly cue my sister? ? ?

When Li Zitong was mentioned, Li Yuze suddenly cheered up 12 points.The attitude towards these dialogues can't help but be scrutinized and become more harsh.

Just kidding, if Zitong is also going to the Flower Appreciation Banquet, maybe he will really run into Master Xu's son!He has to keep his eyes open and help his sister check it out!

——If this person surnamed Xu doesn't look like a good thing, he must tell his sister when he goes back, and tell her to be careful at the flower viewing feast.

"Oh, it seems that Mr. Xu has already chosen someone for your son's marriage!" The young man said with some compliments in his voice, "Then I will congratulate Mr. Ling first!"

Master Xu said with a smile: "These are his own affairs. I never want to interfere. After all, the child should have his own ideas when he grows up. As long as she is a girl from a clean family background, both my mother and I are satisfied! However, I also accept your good words!"

The two seemed to have raised their glasses to meet each other, and there was a moment of silence in the private room next door.

After a while, the person sitting opposite Mr. Xu tried again: "I don't know if you know, besides Young Master Ling, who other young masters and ladies... will go?"

"Huh? Mr. Zhao, didn't your family marry a daughter at the end of last year? Why didn't I know that there is still a suitable one in your family?"

...Master Zhao?

The voice sounded really young, not like Zhao Xiangming, but like Zhao Seungbi and Zhao Xianrong who were about his age.

Zhao Xianrong has not yet entered an official position, so there is only... Zhao Chengbi alone?

But if it was someone else, Li Yuze might hesitate a little bit, Zhao Chengbi knew it very well.

The other party's voice, with such a humble attitude, is far from the strong general.

Perhaps seeing his doubts, Fang Yimin dipped his fingertips in some of the tea left in the cup, and wrote the word "nephew" on the table.

Perhaps Li Yuze didn't know that Fang Yimin had been in Beijing all this time, but he had heard that a nephew of Zhao Xianrong changed his surname to "Zhao" and thus entered the Zhao family.

That Mr. Zhao said with a bit of resentment in his tone: "Mr. Xu's words are wrong! You don't know something, but I... I am asking for my cousin. You also know that my cousin has been here since he was here. Southwest... has been in a slump since then. Now that he is old, but he has no intention of starting a family at all, my aunt is dying of anxiety! I can only pay more attention to him, so it can be regarded as... sharing my aunt's worries."

Fang Yimin swallowed a sip of wine, and sneered in his heart: Zhao Chengbi himself is not in a hurry, but you, a relative who can't be beaten, is more enthusiastic.I'm afraid it's not Sima Zhao's heart, everyone knows it!

Li Yuze also heard something was wrong in Master Zhao's words, and frowned.

The Master Xu sitting across from him sighed after hearing the words: "General Zhao is young and promising, and the conditions were excellent. But then something happened... I think it would be more difficult to match him with a marriage." It’s still hard to reach the sky!”

As soon as this "Master Zhao" heard that his cousin's marriage was difficult to achieve, the worry in his tone immediately dissipated completely: "In that case, it is really embarrassing."

"After all, a girl from a good family background is also pampered. Who wants to serve such a...?"

Afraid that walls have ears, and I have some respect for Zhao Chengbi, Mr. Xu still didn't say the word "crime" directly.

"But if the conditions are really too ordinary, let alone the general himself, I'm afraid His Majesty will not agree. After all, he is also a courtier who has been born and died for him... Hey, tell me, I don't know if Your Majesty will hold this flower viewing banquet. this means?"

"It doesn't seem to be the case at all. I heard that Mr. Fang will also go to this flower viewing party! In terms of youth and promise, this is..." The person surnamed Zhao paused for a moment, and seemed to analyze seriously, "Before It can be said that Cousin and Mr. Fang are No.1 in one article and one military. Today is not what it used to be... If it is true that the conditions are superior, I am afraid that in the hands of Mr. Fang, now Cousin Zhao is hard to come by..."

Master Xu sighed, and said: "Oh, you and I don't talk about it anymore, it's other people's business after all, how much do you and I know? Come, let's eat!"

The conversation between the two ended here, and Li Yuze and Fang Yimin, who heard the news, were left looking at each other in their private room.

Fang Yimin: Wait, why did you suddenly mention my name? ? ?I... When did I say I was going to this shitty flower viewing party? ? ?Hey, let me tell you that you can eat nonsense and not talk nonsense! ! !Come, come, stand up, and I will talk to you! ! !

It's strange to say that he obviously didn't do anything to feel sorry for Li Yuze, but when he heard such news suddenly and met Li Yuze's gaze, he somehow felt a little... a guilty conscience.

"Zilan..."

Li Yuze stared at him for several seconds, almost making Fang Yimin so nervous that he couldn't eat.

Fang Yimin quickly swallowed the food in his mouth, looked up at him: "Huh?"

Li Yuze's pupils were originally darker than ordinary people's. When he stared at a person so intently, there was an inexplicably deep meaning in his eyes.

He asked in an unclear tone: "...Are you going?"

In all the time with Fang Yimin, he had never exuded such an oppressive aura, Fang Yimin couldn't help being a little stunned.

"I……"

In Fang Yimin's paused silence, Li Yuze's expression gradually disappeared.

The dark pupils locked on Fang Yimin's face, as if he would not look away until the other party gave him an answer.

Fang Yimin originally wanted to deliberately say that he was going to the flower viewing feast, so that this idiot would be enlightened.

Who knew that when he met Li Yuze's dark eyes, all his thoughts were forgotten, he could only stammer and tell the truth: "I won't go...I won't go."

Li Yuze didn't seem to care what Fang Yimin's answer was, he just wanted to hear the other party's answer.

After Fang Yimin said that he would not go, he nodded and said in a flat tone, "That's good."

Fang Yimin looked at Li Yuze's expressionless face, and tentatively said, "Congyi, don't be angry... I won't go..."

Li Yuze looked away, and took another sip of the wine in his glass.

The cold wine passed through his throat and reached his stomach, and there was a burning sensation, which made his mind less clear.

Li Yuze looked back at him, with a warm smile on his face, as if the indifference just now was just Fang Yimin's illusion: "What's the matter, Zilan? Do you think that if you go... I will be angry?"

Fang Yimin didn't expect the other party's attitude to be so calm, but it was like the calm before the storm, so he couldn't help feeling a little uneasy, and sneaked a glance at Li Yuze.

He couldn't figure out what Li Yuze meant, so he could only tentatively say, "No, I just..."

"It's just a trivial matter, it's not enough to make me angry with you, don't think about it." Li Yuze smiled and shook his head, "Zilan, you are my best friend, you want to start a family and find a lover... I'm happier than anyone."

Unexpectedly, the other party would say such a thing, Fang Yimin was angry and impatient, and denied, "I didn't think...!"

He paused for a moment, and was afraid that Li Yuze's words just now were really what he was thinking, so he hesitated a little: "Then you, Cong Yi... what do you think?"

"Thinking about what?"

"Just... as long as you want to, find one..."

"Me?" Li Yuze sighed, his expression was still relaxed, but there was a bit of self-mockery in his tone, "In this state, if the foreign enemy is not eliminated, I don't have such thoughts, and I don't deserve it."

When the two of them talked about this matter a long time ago, Li Yuze talked like this.It has been several years now, and he still said the same thing, which made Fang Yimin a little suspicious.

Fang Yimin then looked at Li Yuze, and asked in confirmation, "...Really?"

Seeing Li Yuze nod his head, he felt a little relieved, and defended the person in front of him: "Who says you are unworthy! You can find it too!"

——If you want to find... can you consider me! ! !

Li Yuze looked at Fang Yimin, pretended to be helpless, and suppressed the deep pain in his heart: "Zi Lan, since you and I have known each other, except for the few years when I was stationed in the army, we have been inseparable. What kind of person... So sometimes I often wonder, is it possible that our relationship may also restrain you?"

Li Yuze looked at his friend, and unconsciously expressed a little worry in his tone: "Leading troops to fight, victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. It is possible that if you lead troops out today, you will never return..."

He was afraid that if his position in Fang Yimin's heart was too important, at that time, the day Li Yuze left suddenly would be the day Fang Yimin collapsed.

——So, when I was still alive, if I could see my best friend get married, marry a wife and have children... I, Li Yuze, would have no regrets in my life.

His eyes kept lingering on Fang Yimin's face, there was a little nostalgia in his eyes, a little entanglement, and a little undetectable...reluctant.

Fang Yimin thought he was determined, but was defeated by Li Yuze's few words.

He looked at the other party's extremely serious expression, and finally asked in disbelief: "Really?... You really think so?"

Half of it was true, half of it was false, Li Yuze didn't know why he said these words at this time.As if by accident, when he heard that Fang Yimin was going to that messy flower viewing party, these words came out of his mouth naturally.

Seeing Fang Yimin's depression obviously, and with an expression of disbelief, Li Yuze felt a little regretful in his heart, but continued to nod on the surface: "Yes... that's what I thought."

Fang Yimin's breath was stuck in his throat, and he couldn't get up or down.

He saw that there was no flaw in Li Yuze's expression, as if the other party really considered him wholeheartedly, and he cared more about his own marriage than himself.

Since you are so concerned, why don't you come by yourself!Fang Yimin groaned, he picked out a lot of sawdust from a corner of the wooden table, and it was almost pitted.

Fang Yimin thought angrily: Since you don't want me, then I don't want to think about your feelings anymore!Isn't it just a flower viewing feast? I'll go as soon as I go. What can you do to me? !

So he said quickly: "Actually, I think it's good to go to this flower viewing feast, right? Cong Yi, you are right, I am not young. At that time, at the flower viewing banquet, look Look at the scenery and admire the flowers, and then chat with others, maybe...then I will suddenly look back at the person who found me, and a good story will spread."

Li Yuze's hand holding the wine glass paused.

It was obvious that Fang Yimin listened to what he just said in every word, and this decision completely followed his instructions, but Li Yuze couldn't be happy at all.

He tried his best to move the corner of his mouth, but found that he could not move the stiff muscles at all, so he could only forcefully smile: "Then... that would be the best."

"If that's the case...Zilan, I'll be happy for you." Li Yuze added another sentence trying to cover up.

Fang Yimin looked at his stiff expression and sneered: "Oh, really?"

——Li Yuze, you coward.

He raised his wine glass with a more bold posture than Li Yuze who stayed in the Northland all year round and sometimes needed to drink wine as water.

Fang Yimin stared at Li Yuze without turning his eyes, just stared at him like this, and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.
