Chapter 1037 Banquet
As His Majesty Li Er's favorite legitimate son, the benefits of Jin Wang Li Zhi's wedding are definitely the most grand and luxurious among the princes. Of course, this is also related to the fact that His Majesty Li Er has been rich in money and pockets in the past two years. In the past, even if he wanted to be extravagant, he did not have the strength. He went hunting in the summer, built a palace, and borrowed some funds from the Ministry of Civil Affairs, but was blocked. From time to time, the imperial censors and officials headed by Wei Zheng would impeach him. Who could bear it?
What he is spending now is his own money. Although there will still be censors who clamor to live frugally to trouble him, but after all, there is still something wrong. His Majesty Li Er is just farting...
The wedding went smoothly, but the complicated procedures and strict etiquette caused time to be delayed again and again. By the time the newlyweds entered the bridal chamber, it was already the time when the Jade Rabbit was rising, and the cold silver light shone all over the roofs and walls of the Tai Chi Palace.
The Tai Chi Palace was filled with flowing tables, and delicacies from the mountains and seas, fine wines and fine wines were served free of charge, making sure that all guests felt the royal magnanimity and the emperor's generosity. Fang Jun was pulled to the main seat by Prince Li Chengqian and King Wu Li Ke to show their respect for Fang Jun and their friendship.
However, Fang Jun didn't want to eat in public, so he politely declined the invitation of the two princes and went directly to a table in the corner. Cheng Yaojin had been waving to him since he came in. It would be fun to drink and eat meat with a group of generals and common men!
The food given to him by Princess Jinyang has been almost digested for a long time, and now his stomach is pounding. Naturally, he will drink until the drink is dry. Drinking heavily, eating large chunks of meat, chattering and drinking, this is what it means to sit down for a banquet! Looking back at the prince's table, they are all princes, nobles and gentlemen. They are drinking wine and pushing around and pretending, which can make people feel depressed...
The wine was poured into the stomach one glass at a time without stopping, and the maid in charge of pouring the wine was so tired that her arms were a little sore.
"That little boy Chu Bi is about to be transferred back to the capital. Now he is the fifth-rank Dingyuan General. There is no point in being a personal honor guard Yulin Langjiang in the palace. Why don't you arrange a position in Jingzhao Mansion? , following you?”
Cheng Yaojin picked up his wine glass and clinked a glass with Fang Jun carelessly, and said.
Fang Jun drank a glass of wine and asked curiously: "Chu Bi has returned to Beijing? He can just handle such a trivial matter himself. They are all good brothers. It's just a matter of one sentence, so why should Uncle Cheng worry about it?"
Cheng Yaojin chuckled: "Isn't that boy tender-faced? You are under a lot of pressure now, and I don't want to cause you any trouble. Tell me, that's just fart! What do you mean by brothers? Brothers are just for two people. You can't block the knife for me. If something happens, I told him that Fang Erlang was not that kind of person, but he just refused to listen. He was almost mad at you for being so stubborn! Fa'er, who do you look like?"
Fang Jun sweats profusely...
This is the first time I heard that it turns out that good brothers are used to hold up cylinders and block knives?
But if you taste it carefully, the words are rough, and Li'er is really not rough!
Drinking and eating meat every day for fun, but retreating when something happens, how can we call them brothers?
Yu Chigong, whose face was darker than Fang Jun's, laughed and said: "Old Cheng, let me tell you, among your family's litter of cubs, this is the only one that I like, Chu Bi. They usually don't make a sound or make a fuss, but at critical moments, there are You have a strong sense of responsibility, follow me!”
Cheng Yaojin was naturally happy to see someone praising his son. Even though he scolded him fiercely, who wouldn't be happy that his son has a promising future? He raised his glass and touched it with Yuchi Gong, grinning widely and said: "After all these years, you, this old black guy, finally said something that made me feel better. Come on, drink the holy drink!"
"Drinking Saint!"
The table full of military commanders clinked glasses and drank together in an aggressive manner.
Cheng Yaojin drank the wine and clicked his tongue, feeling something was wrong.
Cheng Chubi, that's my son. If you say he has a temper like yours, there's nothing wrong with him, but what Yu Chigong just said was "Let him go"...
The Demon King suddenly became angry and banged the table. His eyes were as wide as copper bells. He glared at Yuchi Gong and said angrily: "Yuchi Laohei, what do you mean by this mother-in-law? Take advantage of me, right?"
Yuchi Gong looked at Cheng Yaojin who suddenly became angry inexplicably: "Did you take the wrong medicine? I didn't provoke you or provoke you, so why should I curse you?"
"Then tell me, why did you tell your son to let you go?"
"Is there any?" Yu Chigong looked confused, looked around, and asked for confirmation: "Did someone say this?"
Li Daliang nodded his head and became a witness.
Yuchi Gong was a little embarrassed. He just spoke without thinking, but he didn't mean anything else! I scold you, Cheng Yaojin, for being such a arrogant wise man. Isn’t that a slap in the face? Even if I'm wrong, it's not so extreme!
Yuchi's door god is also a hot-tempered person, how can he tolerate such a bird-like attitude?
He immediately slapped the table and said angrily: "I just said, what can you do? I'm right, your son is much better than you. Who doesn't know that Jing Zhaoyin, Fang Er, is under great pressure and is everywhere?" Are you an enemy? You, a careless bastard, can tell Fang Er to arrange his duties. Are you acting like an elder?"
When two hot-tempered guys come together, it's like sparks hitting the earth. Their eyes are getting bigger than the other, and they are about to fight with their arms and sleeves rolled up...
Fang Jun was helpless, so he quickly broke up the fight and persuaded Yuchi: "Uncle Yuchi, don't worry, my nephew Jingzhaoyin can't control his own one-third of an acre of land? I have the final say in the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion and make arrangements. What does this position mean? Who dares to be gibberish? Deal with him immediately!”
Cheng Yaojin raised his thumb: "That's what you call a man! You, Yuchi Laohei, are quite tall and thick, but your courage is actually less than that of a mouse, and you can't even compare to those two ladies in your family!"
Fang Jun was speechless, Cheng Yaoji, aren't you the one who doesn't want to open the pot?
Everyone knows that Yuchi was afraid of hen. After the death of his first wife, he married a second wife even more than before. This matter has become a laughing stock in Chang'an. But even though Yu Chigong was submissive to his wife at home, if anyone laughed at him for being henpecked outside, he would have to fight with them to show off his strength!
Sure enough, when he heard Cheng Yaojin scolding him for being afraid of his wife, Yu Chigong couldn't help it and cursed loudly: "You old guy, do you dare to fight with a certain person for 300 rounds? You also believe the rumors spread by outsiders, how do you know that I am here?" If you are afraid of your wife, how can I be better than Fang Xuanling? "
Fang Jun covered his face with his hands.
You guys are quarreling with each other. If you really can't resolve your hatred, just start a fight. Why do you want to get involved with our dad?
All the generals on the table held their stomachs and laughed.
If it were anyone else, saying that he was afraid of his wife would be offending, but it was not a big deal with Fang Xuanling. Someone said in front of Fang Xuanling that he was afraid of his wife. Fang Xuanling smiled slightly and said calmly: "My wife has worked hard to give birth to children and take care of the family business. She has worked hard and asked for help. It is really hard work and great achievements. Is it possible that she gets beaten and scolded from time to time?" It immediately shows that I am a man? I am not afraid, but respectful.”
I don't think it's a pestilence, but I feel proud of it.
Everyone in the world respects him.
But in the final analysis, it was inappropriate to say such words in front of his son. Yuchi Gong regretted it after saying it, and said to Fang Jun in embarrassment: "Don't be upset, Erlang. I didn't mean to laugh at your father. It was just a metaphor."
Fang Jun was speechless.
This is a good analogy...
Li Daliang and others had some good talk before the two of them sat down and angrily ignored each other.
Yuchi Gong said to Fang Jun: "Since you just boasted about Haikou, I have a friendship with you at that time, so you should also make arrangements."
Fang Jun had no choice but to say: "Yuchi Baoqi and I hit it off right away, no problem."
Of course there is no problem. Even if there is a problem, would he dare to say it at this time? Look at the current state of Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong, whoever provokes them will be in bad luck! You can arrange for Cheng Yaojin's son, but you can't arrange for my son?
Look down on people?
Li Daliang interjected: "I heard that His Majesty intends to build a 'Martial Arts Hall' near Kunming Lake. Erlang will be in charge of it in the spring. Is this true?"
This is not a secret, Fang Jun said frankly: "It is true."
At present, many civil servants and generals from the DPRK and China have greeted him and asked him to take more care of his nephew in the future.
What to take care of?
Fang Jun sneered, His Majesty Li Er personally served as the "Wu Lecture Hall" to offer wine, who dares to take care of it?
This group of people didn't even think about their children learning any skills, they were just trying to gain connections...(End of Chapter)
