"Brother, why haven't you gone back yet?"
Song Qing immediately pinned the wine bag in his hand to his waist, picked up his horse and headed towards Young Master Liu.
"Brother, I specially waited for you outside the palace gate."
Liu Mingzhi looked at Song Qing with a puzzled expression: "Waiting for me? What's wrong? Is there something going on?"
"Yes, there is something I need to tell you."
Liu Mingzhi gently let go of the horse's rein and turned around to observe the situation around him.
"Brother, is this a business matter or a private matter?"
Song Qing let go of the horse's reins, took out two documents from his cuffs, and signaled with an envelope.
"Business matters, about the Western Expedition Army."
Liu Mingzhi looked at the documents and envelope in Song Qing's hand, and nodded solemnly.
“Brother, there are so many people coming and going on the street, it’s not convenient to talk about these things.
Let’s go back to my little brother’s house first, and then we’ll talk about this in detail after we get to my little brother’s study.”
Song Qing quickly put the documents and envelopes into his sleeves, grabbed the horse's reins and got on his mount.
Mr. Liu immediately got on his horse, nodded and exhaled a few big breaths of warm air into his slightly cold hands.
"drive!"
"drive!"
Following the soft shouts of the two brothers, the two strong horses raised their hooves and hurried slowly towards the street.
Young Master Liu faced the cold wind and kept rubbing his hands while shrinking his neck and looking at the wine bag on Song Qing's waist.
"Brother, give me some of your wine. The weather has been getting colder and colder these days."
Song Qing immediately took off the wine bag from his waist, raised his head and threw it towards Young Master Liu.
"Brother Wei, this is not fine wine. This is the wine that Brother Wei bought from the restaurants of Bizhu, Lingyi and the others after he left the palace not long ago."
Young Master Liu raised his eyebrows and directly pulled out the stopper on the wine bag.
"Strong liquor, that would be better."
Young Master Liu drank several large gulps of strong wine, and his face gradually turned rosy.
"Phew, it's so happy, it's so damn happy.
In this kind of weather, it would be more enjoyable to drink the strong liquor poured by cows and horses.
After a few big gulps of wine, my body immediately started to heat up."
"Hehehe, then you should drink more, and then go to the restaurant to get a new one after you drink it.
Anyway, your wife owns the restaurant, so you don’t have to spend any money on it."
"Screw you, Bizhu, Lingyi and the other two sisters. They get up early and finish their work every day. Is it easy to earn so much money?
It's a good thing for you, as all the little calculations have been done to your two younger siblings."
Song Qing shook his head angrily, grabbed the wine bag from Young Master Liu's hand and drank heavily.
"Good guy, as you said, it's not easy for the two siblings to earn some money.
Let's buy some wine for my brother and me, so I don't have to spend any money."
Young Master Liu took off the wine bag from his waist, grabbed the wine bag from Song Qing's hand again, and poured half of the wine bag into his own wine bag.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, look at how stingy you are. Chitose, the majestic King of Wuyi of the current dynasty, is he reluctant to even spend some money on drinks?"
"You're grand. You're grand, so don't drink from my brother."
Young Master Liu grinned and happily returned the wine bag to Song Qing.
"Here you go, I'll make it look like I've finished your drink."
Song Qing weighed the wine bag with only half of the wine left in his hand, and said helplessly: "Oh, you are so shameless, I really don't know what to say."
Young Master Liu took a sip of the wine, grabbed a corner of his cloak and rubbed his cheeks vigorously a few times.
"The cold wind is so strong today, it's like a knife, and it can cause pain on people's faces."
Song Qing tightened the cloak around her body and breathed in silently.
"How about the twelfth lunar month of winter, when the wind is as cold as a knife?
The Chinese New Year is only half a month away, and it would be really weird if the weather wasn't cold at this time."
"Alas, I have lived in peace and quiet for too long, and my body is no longer what it used to be.
I remember the time when we brothers and soldiers fought together on the battlefield.
I, the young master, led the soldiers, braved the oncoming violent storm and snow, and galloped their horses and whips across the endless snowy fields, charging for most of the day.
“At that time, I didn’t feel anything at all.
Nowadays, when the weather is a little bit bad, I feel a little uncomfortable."
"It's not just you, as a brother, why don't I do the same?
The past is like smoke, you can’t go back.”
"Hehehe, big brother, little brother respects you."
"Drink together."
Young Master Liu and Brother Song Qing were chatting with each other, and before they knew it, they had returned to the mansion.
When Liu Song heard the sound of horse hooves, he immediately opened the door and came out.
"Master, come back."
"Well, I'm back."
Liu Mingzhi got off his horse and threw the whip directly into Liu Song's hand.
"Master Song, you are here too."
"Yeah, brother Liu Song."
"Willow Pine."
"The little one is here."
"Just take the young master's horse to the stable, and the elder brother's horse to the yard."
"Yes, I understand, little one."
"Brother, please."
"coming."
"Willow Pine."
"Master, do you have any other orders?"
"Master, where are the documents I asked you to bring back from the palace? Are they still with you?"
"Go back to the young master. As soon as I got back, I gave the documents to Mrs. Ying'er. I guess Mrs. Ying'er should have already sent them to your study."
"Okay, I understand, go ahead and do your work."
"I'll take my leave, little one."
·Major Liu put the wine bag on his waist and waved to Song Qing with a faint smile.
"Brother, please give me the documents and letters first."
Song Qing nodded slightly, and immediately took out the letters and documents from his sleeves and handed them to Young Master Liu.
Young Master Liu slightly put his hands on his back and hurried towards the study room in the inner courtyard.
"Brother, let's go to the study first."
"OK."
It takes about a cup of tea.
