Chapter 251 Not angry, is this still called a young man?
The dinner was held at Chen Guowei's residence "Liyuan", with sumptuous food and wine, and silk and bamboo. Yan Jizu was unwell and did not accompany him in person. Instead, his two important counselors, Yan Benchu and Mr. Huang, did the work for him. In this way, together with Chen Guowei and
Liu Ruyi, one table became four people!
When Chinese people discuss political affairs, many of them are negotiated over the wine table. Although Liu Ruyi and Chen Guowei are already at odds in private, Chen Guowei is the deputy commander-in-chief after all, and he plays his cards according to the rules. In addition, Yan Jizu's relationship
, On the bright side, Liu Ruyi still has to give them some face!
The Liyuan is located in the northern section of Dezhou City, covering an area of nearly 30 acres, with carved pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, full of rich Jiangnan style! The most touching thing is that in the middle of the garden, a pond of about ten acres has been built.
Both sides are covered with pear trees. When the pear blossoms are in full bloom, the whole garden becomes white and the fragrance can spread to more than ten miles away. It is called "Pear Orchard Cream", and the Pear Orchard gets its name from this!
This fairyland-like ‘Dongtian Paradise’ was originally owned by a wealthy businessman named Huang. After Chen Guowei settled in Dezhou, he ‘gave’ this garden to Chen Guowei!
At this time, it was late winter, and the pear trees were already withered. Although he could not appreciate the grand scene of "thousands of pear trees in bloom," Liu Ruyi sat on the three-story pavilion, overlooking the sparkling silk and bamboo flowing water in the garden.
My mood gradually calmed down a lot!
"Brother Liu, I heard that Brother Liu's mother is from Jiangnan. Brother Liu has been accustomed to southern food since he was a child. This table of Suzhou dishes was specially made by the chef from Wanhualou in the city. How about it?
"Is it still to Brother Liu's taste?" Chen Guowei looked at Liu Ruyi with a smile, and he was unspeakably kind. Obviously, he had put a lot of thought into tonight's banquet!
"Thank you for your kindness, brother! Ruyi has remembered this friendship! Haha!" Liu Ruyi smiled and cupped her hands, and gave Chen Guowei a playful look!
As the saying goes, 'Don't stretch out your hand to hit the smiling person'. Although the two secretly wish to strangle each other to death, in terms of face, they are more intimate than brothers with the same mother!
"Haha, is this all what it should be? We can sit here and drink and have fun now. In the final analysis, it is all thanks to Brother Liu! If Brother Liu hadn't been so brave and defeated those dog Tatars, we
I'm afraid I'll have to freeze and starve! It's just a table of food and wine, so what does that mean? Oh~~! What a pity~! Brother, several of my daughters are already married, otherwise, I would definitely recruit Liu
Brothers can't be sons-in-law!" Chen Guowei pretended to laugh cheerfully, but there was a sense of resentment between his eyebrows, which disappeared in a flash!
Liu Ruyi smiled slightly, picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and said: "I don't dare to accept my brother's love! Come on, I'll give you a drink!"
After saying that, Liu Ruyi picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp!
Chen Guowei frowned slightly, but quickly relaxed, "Yes, yes! Come on, let's not talk about this, drink, drink!"
The centerpieces of today's banquet were obviously Liu Ruyi and Chen Guowei, while Yan Benchu and Mr. Huang were complete foils. Seeing that the two principals did not talk about the topic at all, Yan and Huang were not very talkative, so they had to
After getting up and drinking, the atmosphere gradually became more lively!
After three rounds of wine and five tastes of food, several people had a hint of drunkenness on their faces!
At this time, Mr. Huang picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "Guys, we are almost done drinking. Shouldn't we talk about something serious?"
The expressions of several people changed at the same time. Liu Ruyi did not expect that Mr. Huang would speak so recklessly!
But Mr. Huang seemed to be fine, and said: "General Liu defeated the Qing army, and his hard work is great, but General Chen's troops defended Dezhou City, and he personally went to rescue General Ni, and his merits are not bad! Is it just that? If Yanzhou City is lost,
The vassal king was killed, this..."
Mr. Huang paused, but his eyes drifted towards Liu Ruyi and Chen Guowei!
Chen Guowei seemed to have expected it, and said with a smile: "Mr. Huang, I, Old Chen, are the governor's soldiers! Whatever the governor wants, I, Old Chen, will do what I do! I need to trouble you to report to the governor.
!”
Liu Ruyi smiled slightly, but a cold light flashed in his eyes!
Are these two old bastards playing a double act in their relationship? They have laid a trap and want to get in!
This~~ is not that easy!
"Why can't Mr. Liu understand what Mr. Huang means? Mr. Liu is just a guerrilla in Jinan City, with a low position and a low position. What does the loss of Yanzhou's capital city have to do with me?" Not to mention that Mr. Huang is just a staff member.
Yan Jizu is here, how can Liu Ruyi compromise on such a principled issue?
"You~~~~!"
Mr. Huang stood up suddenly and wanted to pat the table, but he found that the table was full of wine and food, and there was no way to start. He had to sit down angrily and said calmly: "General Liu, you should take a long-term view in life! If you just look at it,
In front of you, be careful of falling!"
"Hahaha!" Liu Ruyi laughed, but without even looking at Mr. Huang, she turned to Yan Benchu and said, "Mr. Yan, do you think so too?"
Yan Benchu was a little embarrassed. He didn't want to participate in today's events, but since Yan Jizu gave him such an order, he couldn't refuse at all~!
At this point, after hearing Liu Ruyi's words, he could only shake his head and smile bitterly: "General Liu, you are a hero! Although Yan is just a scholar, he also knows the justice of the nation. General Liu saved my millions of Qilu elders from fire and water. Yan
I am deeply impressed! Today Yan is feeling a little unwell, so he will take his leave now. I will see General Liu again the next day for a toast!"
After Yan Benchu finished speaking, he cupped his hands to the three of them, turned around and wanted to retreat out of the door!
"Yan! What do you mean? Have you forgotten the governor's instructions?" Mr. Huang didn't dare to do anything to Liu Ruyi, but he had no scruples about Yan Benchu. He slapped the chair hard and became furious.
He asked further.
"Hmph~! Yan will naturally explain it to the Governor personally! As a person named Huang, you must first touch your own conscience! You should take care of yourself first! Don't accompany me!" Yan Benchu finished speaking without even looking at it.
Take one look at Mr. Huang and leave quickly!
"What the hell! It makes me so angry! It makes me so angry!" Mr. Huang was like an irritable weasel, stroking the three-inch long beard under his chin and yelling at Yan Benchu's back!
There was a faint smile on the corner of Liu Ruyi's mouth. Yan Benchu was already a little shaken. Unfortunately, the heat was not enough, so he had to add more!
"General Liu~! You are still young, don't be too arrogant!" Mr. Huang also calmed down at this time, looked into Liu Ruyi's eyes coldly, and said bitterly.
"Haha? If you don't have great energy, how can you still call yourself a young man? If you don't have great energy, how can you drive out all the Tatars? Are we all like you, Mr. Huang, who just lies behind and talks? Mr. Huang, I also advise you.
Just say, haha, don’t look at how happy you are today, be careful in the future~~make a list!” Liu Ruyi stood up suddenly and looked down condescendingly!
"You, you, you..." Mr. Huang trembled for a while, but he couldn't say a single word!
"Go away~~~! Go back and tell your master that if anything happens, ask him to come and talk to me in person! Otherwise, don't blame me for not giving him a chance~!!" Now that he had broken his face, Liu Ruyi didn't even do it.
He felt a trace of scruple, waved his hand, and in a moment, several soldiers rushed into the house quickly, picked up Mr. Huang's limp body like a chicken, and threw it outside the door!
"Come on, Mr. Chen, we have good wine and good food, but don't let this bug spoil your mood! Come on, let's have a drink first!" Liu Ruyi picked up the wine glass with a smile, gestured to Chen Guowei, and said
Drink it all!
Chen Guowei's expression was complicated. Fortunately, he was thick-skinned and the ravines were like the Loess Plateau washed by water, so he did not show any change. He quickly picked up the wine glass, drank the wine in the glass, and said with a smile: "
Brother Liu is such a happy person! Speaking of which, I have long disliked this weasel! Haha! Brother Liu, you are relieved for my brother! It’s so happy! It’s so happy! Come on, brother, give you another drink
!”
After a few more glasses of wine, Chen Guowei suddenly became lustful and smiled, "Now that the eyesore is gone, we brothers have to get down to business! Hehe!"
Liu Ruyi was stunned, then she saw Chen Guowei clapped his hands vigorously. For a moment, the orchestra sounded in unison, and several graceful women walked in from the side. They were only wearing thin silk gauze, with no hair underneath, and followed the music.
To the beat, start dancing!
"Haha, these are all treasures! I asked someone to get them back from Persia at a high price! They are all original goods. Brother, I am not willing to enjoy them yet! Hey, Brother Liu, you can choose whichever one you like.
This is a meeting gift from me, brother!" Seeing that Liu Ruyi had not yet reacted, Chen Guowei explained with a smile on the side!
Only then did Liu Ruyi realize that these dancers were all foreign products, all Caucasian, with plump breasts, fat hips, and slender waists, which made people's blood boil!
In later generations, many people believed that the Chinese people's aesthetic concepts in history did not agree with the Western "Yangma", thinking that they were "disasters" and taboo. In fact, this is pure nonsense with twisted braids!
As everyone knows, as early as the prosperous Tang Dynasty, Chang'an was full of Hu women. The high-ranking officials were all proud of having enchanting Hu women as their concubines. This was also the case in most Song and Yuan Dynasties! Only at the end of the braided dynasty,'
Only the great emperor Kang Xiaomazi would call the women donated by Russia Rakshasa women, and he would not look at them with disdain! Even ministers and princes followed suit one after another, and the custom also spread among the people!
But what Kang Xiaomazi didn't expect was that when it came to his direct grandson, Mr. Hongli, there was already an authentic white concubine in the palace!
"How's it going? Brother Liu, which one do you like?" Chen Guowei couldn't hold himself back anymore and waved several Persian dancers forward for Liu Ruyi to choose!
Liu Ruyi reached out and lifted the round chin of a dancer. She turned her head away shyly. Liu Ruyi took a look and saw that she was indeed very beautiful. It was obvious that Chen Guowei had already spent a lot of money!
"Haha! They're all good! If I want them all, can Mr. Chen give me some love?" Liu Ruyi said with a smile.
"Uh? This..." Chen Guowei was stunned, and his eyebrows were tangled together in pain, but in just a moment, he made a decision, pretending to be bold: "Brother Liu, since, since you like it, then everything
Just take it! I will treat you as my friend!"
Liu Ruyi laughed loudly, "Although women are good, they still have a life to enjoy!"
After saying that, Liu Ruyi waved her hand to ask the dancers to leave, and turned to Chen Guowei and said: "Mr. Chen, I think your garden is good! I wonder, Mr. Chen, if you are willing to part with me?"
