Chapter 47: Staying Overnight Drunk

"I drank all day yesterday, and all day today. I've been drinking so much these past two days that I'm practically vomiting. If anyone invites me to drink again, I'll fight him to death."

Li Yi took a long breath while riding his horse, and instantly the pungent smell of alcohol gushed out of his mouth, almost making him faint.

Ma Renyu grinned and said, "Brother Yi, you need to practice your drinking capacity. Look at me, I can still drink a few more jars."

"Why practice drinking alcohol when there are so many other things to practice?" Li Yi glanced at Ma Renyu, "I also advise you to drink less alcohol. Drinking too much of this stuff is not good for you."

"If a person can't drink alcohol, what's the point of living?"

Ma Renyu didn't care and said that his biggest hobby was drinking, followed by visiting women, but if he had to choose one, he would definitely choose drinking.

Li Yi knew that he couldn't persuade this guy, so he shook his head and said no more.

Everyone should have some hobbies. He cannot force others to be like him or to restrain unnecessary desires.

Since Ma Renyu likes to drink, let him drink. At most, I will support him from behind.

I don't think there will be much of a problem...

Soon, the two rushed back to the house.

Li Yi learned from Guo that Zhao Yanwu and the other two went back home early in the morning. They all had families in Tokyo, so it was naturally impossible for them to wander around all day long like Ma Renyu.

"Brother Yi, I have something to do, so I'll leave first." Ma Renyu took the opportunity to say goodbye and leave.

"What the hell are you doing!" Li Yi scolded with a smile. "It's almost dark, where are you going? Going to look for that prostitute, Madam Wang, in the dark alleys of Yangchunfang again?"

Ma Renyu, whose thoughts were revealed, was suddenly embarrassed and stammered, unable to give any reason.

"Just stay here tonight and come with me to visit Guo Zhao's family tomorrow morning."

Today's full-moon banquet at the Zhao family reminded Li Yi of one of his ten generals, Guo Zhao, who died in the Battle of Gaoping and was still thinking about his family and his one-month-old baby before he died.

Li Yi originally wanted to visit his family after returning to Beijing, but a lot of things happened at the same time in the past few days and he didn't have time to do it.

It just so happened that he had nothing to do tomorrow, so he planned to help Guo Zhao fulfill his last wish.

"Okay then..." Ma Renyu could only nod in agreement.

……

late at night.

Li Yi hugged Guo and talked about private matters on the bed.

The two of them had just broken through the last step last night, and were in love with each other. Guo's face was full of happy smiles, and she listened quietly to Li Yi talking about some interesting stories.

Although last night's indulgence was Li Yi's first night in this life, he still felt a little unsatisfied, but there was still a long way to go, so a little time would not make a difference.

"After I finish these two days of work, I will go back to my hometown in Xiajin and bring my uncle and his family over to enjoy the good life..."

As he spoke, Li Yi looked down at Guo in his arms, only to see that her eyes were tightly closed. She had fallen into a deep sleep without him noticing.

Li Yi smiled, kissed Guo on the forehead, then carefully pulled his arm out from under her neck and covered her with the quilt.

Leaning on the bed, Li Yi couldn't fall asleep for a while.

As his thoughts drifted, he thought of the full moon banquet at the Zhao family today.

Zhao Kuangyin's various behaviors seemed to want to resolve the past grudges with him, but the other people in the Zhao family... Li Yi did not see Zhao Da's father, Zhao Hongyin, appear at the banquet.

Even the fat boy Zhao Er didn't show up.

Logically speaking, today is the full moon banquet of Zhao Hongyin's granddaughter, and many of the generals who came are acquainted with him, so he should at least come out and say hello to everyone.

How could she hide like a virgin and not dare to see anyone?

And that guy Zhao Er even came with Zhao Da to attend his housewarming party yesterday.

Today was his niece's full moon party, but he disappeared. It seemed abnormal no matter how you thought about it.

This inevitably made Li Yi wonder: What is the Zhao family's attitude?

Oh, and there’s also Madam Zhao Er.

This woman's words and actions puzzled Li Yi the most. He thought carefully and realized that he had only met her five times... no, six times.

Since Li Yi established a relationship with Zhao Kuangyin, he has been invited to the Zhao family only seven times in total.

The first time he met Zhao Erniang was when Zhao Kuangyin brought Li Yi and a few others into the Zhao family. He happened to run into Zhao Erniang coming out, and she greeted everyone politely.

The next two times they went to the Zhao family, Li Yi and Zhao Erniang only said hello.

It was not until the fourth time that Li Yi was taken to the toilet by a servant when he had to pee while drinking with Zhao Da and others. On the way, he met Zhao Erniang, and she chatted with him for a few more words.

Then, the fifth time, Li Yi accidentally drank too much and was completely drunk. Zhao Kuangyin asked him to stay overnight at his home, along with Shi Shouxin and others.

That night, when he was in a hurry, Li Yi ran into Zhao Erniang again in a daze.

At that time, he was still drunk and he was talking nonsense to the other party under the influence of the alcohol.

When he woke up the next day, he had forgotten what he had said.

However, when leaving, Zhao Erniang inexplicably stopped her in the street and said that she had promised to write a poem for her last night.

Although he couldn't remember what happened the night before, he and Zhao Da had a close relationship at that time. In order not to offend Zhao Da's sister, he could only agree to it casually.

As for writing poems for others...it is definitely better to copy than to write!
Why bother?
Li Yi casually picked up two lines from Li Qingzhao's "Huan Xisha Guiqing": The embroidered lotus face blooms with a smile, and the slanting flying precious duck sets off the fragrant cheeks.

Anyway, these two sentences describe beautiful women. Giving them to Zhao Erniang can be considered as a way to coax her and give her a little flattery. It won't be a loss, and it will just win the favor of Zhao's relatives.

The last time he saw Zhao Erniang was at the end of last year, and that was also the last time Li Yi went to the Zhao family.

When he visited the Zhao family that time, he gave the two copied poems to Zhao Erniang.

Speaking of which, Li Yi used the Slender Gold style when copying those two lines of poetry.

That’s right, it was the font created by Zhao Ji, the Song Huizong who later “went hunting in the north”.

In his previous life, Li Yi had practiced calligraphy for a period of time and copied many famous calligraphy styles. His Slender Gold style calligraphy was quite good.

Writing poems to the ancestors of the Zhao family using the font created by the descendants of the Zhao Song Dynasty can be considered a kind of pleasure for a time traveler.

After that, in the first month of this year, Zhao Da's aunt and cousin came to seek refuge with his father, Zhao Hongyin.

At that time, Guo Wei, the founding emperor of the Later Zhou Dynasty, had just passed away. The army was in a state of solemnity. Li Yi never visited the Zhao family again, and naturally he had never met Zhao Da's aunt and cousin, and had no idea what they looked like.

Until later, the unfortunate incident of Li Yi killing two people with one punch happened...

"Could it be that Zhao Erniang's abnormal behavior is just because I copied two lines of poetry for her?"

Li Yi didn't quite believe that he could bribe Zhao Da's sister to show goodwill to his "blood enemy" with just two lines of copied poetry.

The more he thought about it, the more confused he became.

However, if Li Yi knew that Zhao Da secretly wanted to be his brother-in-law.

Maybe he'll understand what's going on...

But since he couldn't figure it out, Li Yi simply decided not to worry about it for the time being.

Let's wait and see what happens...

The next morning.

Li Yi took the prepared wealth and goods and called Ma Renyu to go to the Inner Palace Guard’s station together.

Guo Zhao's family lived in the living area next to the Neidianzhi military camp.
