Wei Yangmou

Although Zhang Qian said that he wanted to leave Jiaodong, he didn't choose to leave immediately. Not to mention anything else, it was New Year's Eve, and everyone wanted to spend the day peacefully.

Knowing that they would be able to go back in two days, everyone felt very relaxed, and the Jiaodong Army did not treat them badly.

Although they are not allowed to move around, they still brought a lot of things over, including wine and meat, which can also make people have a big meal.

Gouzi nestled next to Zhang Qian, holding a pig's trotter in his hand. He grew up in a poor family and often ate these big meats.

They all eat very seriously, but there are not many opportunities for this kind of food. During the Chinese New Year in the Southern Army, at most it is stewed pork with cabbage. There is a lot of meat, but it is not so late.

He gnawed the pig's trotter clean, stuffed the bones into his mouth and chewed hard.

"Brother, you said that the king of Jiaodong is really a good man. We are all enemies, and he even treated our wounds and ate meat. Such a big hoof is really delicious."

What he said was vague, but Zhang Qian could hear it, raised his hand and slapped him: "Eat yours, even such a big pig's trotter can't stop your mouth."

Gouzi spit out the bone, touched his head and laughed: "I just don't understand, why do you think he did this? Isn't it a bit silly?"

Zhang Qian thought to himself, what did you say earlier?

good one...

Zhang Qian was a little preoccupied, as if in this short period of time, they forgot how Liu Che took down the Zhou army so quickly, and also forgot the more than 1 brothers who died.

People are probably so ruthless. Compared with their own safety and joy, others are more or less inferior, not to mention they are not transferred from the same army, that is, a few acquaintances.

However, even so, it still makes people feel cold.

Zhang Qian thought that he probably already guessed what Liu Che wanted to do.

It's just that he still finds it unbelievable, and thinks that Liu Che is too daring to think, but whoever dares to say that the other party's general is good in the army, this is considered a cholera military spirit, and it will be dealt with by military law. Who dares to say that?

However, even though he only met the man a few times, Zhang Qian still felt that the other party would not make useless efforts, and always felt that this move might end at some point.

But would the imperial court be so vulnerable?

Zhang Qian couldn't figure out what he was thinking, and he didn't know where his inexplicable trust in Liu Che came from. He felt a little depressed. He didn't even want to eat meat. In the end, he thought a little annoyed, never mind, anyway, he just went to the place Liu Che said, and just got back what he wanted.

At that time, the love between the brothers and myself will be paid off.

There are not many soldiers and horses left in the Jiaodong barracks now, except for the 2 brought back from Suichuan, only the [-] Fuhu troops stationed before are left, and these soldiers can't all rest in such a busy time. At this time, there were only a little over [-] soldiers in the barracks next door, but it was very lively, with constant laughter and guessing.

Zhang Qian glanced at it from a distance, thinking, they are all fools, maybe they will be beheaded by the court at any time, but they don't know how to worry, and they are still foolishly happy.

It was hopeless.

Jiaodong was indeed very lively that night, and the imperial court also lifted the curfew on this day, and the streets were full of people, probably because of the good harvest this year.

Moreover, Emperor Jing's new funeral, the folks are forbidden to play for three months, and the people in Jiaodong have not been able to come out until now.

Guansi deliberately emptied a street, recruited some merchants and hawkers, held a rally, and prepared fireworks in the middle of the night, intending to make the people who had a difficult year happy this year.

Counties and counties followed suit one after another. Jiaodong was really empty this night, and the lights were shining in the sky.

Even in the royal palace, the uproar was heard.

The master father Yan pointed to the chicken on the plate to make a fu, but he couldn't make a sentence, and the words didn't make a word. He even said things upside down, and everyone knew that he was drunk.

Although the future is uncertain, all the ministers are very excited today.

The so-called devotion to the country and the people must always be reflected in performance. The excitement in Jiaodong today is like a eulogy, and the officials couldn't help being excited, so they inevitably drank a few more glasses.

Besides, they are so busy that they don't touch the ground, and they really don't have time to drink.

Wang Zhi's face was full of red, and he entertained all the wives in the Chengde Palace. Although these wives have not issued their orders yet, everyone knows that it will only happen sooner or later.

Moreover, although Wang Zhi hosted the banquet, she was not a legitimate queen mother after all. If it wasn't for Han Yan being a man, and Liu Che's harem had no concubines, she might not have been allowed to appear.

There are a lot of topics among women. These women followed their husbands all the way and knew a lot about political affairs, but Wang Yan didn't know anything about it. After a few chats, the wives realized this, and put aside those things, they can talk Not much more, nothing more than children and in-laws.

What Liu Chi said last time somewhat touched Wang Zhi, and even when the other side tried to persuade her again and again, she was still a little hesitant, but now listening to these wives mentioning how filial their sons are and how rich their children are, I felt a little uncomfortable in my heart.

She vaguely realized that she seemed to be going too far with Liu Che.

Even though Liu Chi's idea of ​​"brothers end up with brothers" moved her heart, Wang Zhi still hesitated.

What's more, Liu Chi meant to keep Han Yan to clean up Liu Che's harem, but let the other party favor Liu Che alone. Whenever she thinks about it, she always gets very angry.

Even if Liu Che can't have children, it can't be because of Han Yan...

Looking at the smiling faces of the wives, Wang Zhi suddenly had an idea that Liu Che, the woman he sent, could deal with it as he wanted, without any consideration for his own face. Nengchen, would Liu Che still be so casual?

If it is to protect the face of these ministers, will you accept a few?

Once this thought passed through his mind, it instantly became a prairie fire, making Wang Zhi unable to extricate himself from thinking about it again and again.

She shook her hand and took a sip from the wine glass, her eyes slowly becoming brighter towards those ladies, she cleared her throat: "Ladies."

The very happy ladies who were chatting with each other stopped talking one after another, and looked up at her.

Wang Zhi smiled reservedly: "This Palace has newly acquired a few interesting palace lanterns, and I intend to invite everyone to enjoy them together. I plan to hold a lantern appreciation party in the fifteenth group. Are you interested?"

Even though they were not interested, the wives still agreed one after another. The smile on Wang Zhi's face was brighter, and she glanced at everyone with a smile: "We are at this age, and we can't be lively if we want to. Any family with a daughter will bring it to the palace together." It's bustling."

To Wang Zhi's surprise, the faces of all the wives froze as soon as she said those words.

"how?"

Wang Zhi didn't know why, she just thought that these women were unwilling to give her face, her voice suddenly turned cold, but even so, no one spoke to her below.

Her meaning was too obvious, and she made it clear that she wanted to choose a concubine for her son. However, neither Liu Che nor Liu Chi was a good match. Not to mention Liu Chi, both of his mental abilities were inferior, and he only knew how to play dirty tricks. He is not close to Liu Che, so he can have a place in Jiaodong at this time.

It's just relying on Wang Zhi's best support. If Wang Zhi goes away, Liu Chi's line will have no chance to stand up.

Besides Liu Che, everyone in Jiaodong knows that the king and husband of Jiaodong are deeply affectionate, and they are a couple who share weal and woe. Who is willing to marry their precious daughter to be a widow.

The scene froze for a while.

These ladies don't understand Chang'an's hypocrisy and obedience. They don't know that even if they bring people, there are thousands of excuses. If they can't get married, they don't know how to promise first, and then find other excuses to prevaricate. They just think they agreed. It was to push their own daughters into the fire pit, one by one, with a very firm attitude, regardless of how ugly Wang Zhi's face became.

The banquet looked like it was going to break up unhappy.Just at this moment, there was a commotion outside.Immediately afterwards, Liu Chi rushed in, laughing and walking towards Wang Zhi.

"Mother, brother Wang got a few rare fireworks, and brought them to my mother to have a look at."

After he said this, he bowed his hands to the ladies around him, and in his capacity, it was not considered rude.

And as soon as he came in, he broke the embarrassment just now, and the ladies hurriedly flattered, trying to confuse the incident just now.

Fortunately, Wang Zhi was not without a city mansion. Seeing everyone's attitude, he just sneered and didn't say anything more about the topic just now.

Two palace men came in carrying a big box. Even if the fireworks were set off outside, they could still be seen, but they were just sent here on purpose.

It was just to give Wang Zhi some face, but Wang Zhi was full of anger at this time, and he didn't realize the meaning of it, so he waved his hand in a disinterested manner: "Then let it go."

The palace people then carried the fireworks out again, put them on the open space, and lit them with firefoils.

Not long after, bright golden colors rose up from the box in strings, as if an umbrella blocked the sky, and not long after, the golden color transformed into a very dazzling peony in the air.

The wives were all amazed, and the palace man introduced: "This firework is called Jinyu Liuchuan."

As his words fell, the peony changed again, becoming a peony, followed by a crabapple, and a thorn rose, which really made people dizzy.

Everyone was amazed, but Wang Zhi didn't care much, seeing that the color of the sky was no longer changing, and the golden color was slowly fading away, he wanted to let everyone disperse.

Before she could open her mouth, the faded fireworks suddenly seemed to be scattered, turning into thousands of golden threads and scattered down, reflecting the golden splendor around it, as if it was a golden rain.

Some of the wives exclaimed: "What a river of gold and jade! It's really an eye-opener."

Wang Zhi recovered from the astonishment, and was about to say a few words of modesty when he suddenly heard someone say, "I know these fireworks. My girl likes to watch them. I went out to order them for her on the eighteenth day, but I met them." Your Royal Highness, I heard the name he said with my own ears."

Everyone was amazed again, because the golden rain seemed to be continuous, and it was still falling, as if it could be touched by hand, even if they closed their eyes, they still felt a golden light around them.

Only Wang Zhi's face, which had been softened just now, darkened again the moment he heard those words.

She couldn't help clenching her fists, and a wave of anger rose in her heart. No matter how she looked at it, she felt that Han Yan was using herself to make a name for herself, and a wave of used resentment rose in her chest.

She was about to sneer and sarcastically sneered at Han Yan, but when she was about to leave, the maid suddenly hurried in and whispered a few words in her ear.

Wang Zhi's eyes slowly widened uncontrollably, and shock and disbelief instantly appeared on his face.

Then there was anger and disgust, but after a moment of change, the expression slowly turned into sarcasm and a sneer.

She tapped on the short table lightly, and the gorgeous golden armor clasped on the wooden tabletop. The sound was not loud, but it seemed to be clasped on her heart. The maid looked at the armor that was almost sharp. I couldn't help swallowing my saliva, and my heart was beating loudly.

She didn't know whether it was right or wrong to do so, but Wang Zhi promised her that if she was willing to help Wang Zhi well, Wang Zhi would give Liu Chi a good future when she became an adult.

She was irresistibly tempted, and stayed by Wang Zhi's side cautiously, trying to inquire about her as much as possible, but the palace was too strict.

Moreover, she is from the Chengde Palace, and she is not popular. Even if she worked hard, there was no progress until she went to the toilet just now...
