"Brother Xu, please eat more. The sauce-flavored duck at Haokelai Restaurant is excellent!"
Shi Xiaomei picked up a duck leg and placed it gently in Xu Shu's bowl. Then she turned around and picked up a duck butt for Shi Tao.
Shi Tao looked at the duck butt in his bowl, and then at the big duck legs in Xu Shu's bowl, and his heart suddenly became unbalanced.
"Little sister, do you think you are a real girl? Why should I feed him duck legs while I eat this?"
Shi Xiaomei picked up another duck leg, took a bite happily, and said angrily: "Brother Xu gave me the meat ticket. It's good if you have a duck butt to eat. How can you get so many opinions?"
"You, I am your brother!"
"Do you have any meat tickets?"
"me……"
Shi Xiaomei sneered and said: "I asked you to go north with Brother Xu, but you refused. Now you want to eat duck legs. I think you want to eat shit, huh."
This was the first time that Xu Shu had eaten such delicious duck meat. He took a bite and said with a smile: "Brother Guangyuan, my little sister is right. You can work with me to work for the young master. Your benefits will be indispensable in the future."
Shi Tao made a sound and said bluntly: "I won't go. It's great to be so free now. If I really wanted to work for others, when I was in Luoyang, I would have gone to work as a retainer for Wang Yun. There are three people there.
Please invite me to go."
Xu Shu smiled bitterly and didn't bother to persuade him any more. Shi Tao was used to being lazy and didn't want to be restrained. He hadn't been like this before.
Shi Xiaomei was not used to Shi Tao, so she smiled disdainfully and said, "Hey, which Wang Yun is it, the one from the Wang family in Taiyuan?"
Speaking of the Wang family in Taiyuan, Xu Shu and Shi Tao looked at each other.
It was only after they came to Hedong County that they learned about Wei Cheng's annihilation of the entire Wang family in Taiyuan.
Xu Shu said at that time, "This is what a real man should do!"
The Wang family colluded with foreigners to harm their compatriots, and it was simply not a pity to die.
Shi Tao also admired Wei Cheng's courage and ruthlessness, but he still couldn't accept the idea of him being someone's little brother.
Even though that person is Wei Cheng.
The three of them had lunch.
Shi Xiaomei went to work in the soup pool as usual. Shi Tao yawned and looked at Xu Shu, "Brother Yuanzhi, do you really want to work for that person?"
Xu Shu nodded slightly, feeling that he was not firm enough, so he nodded again, "Yes."
Shi Taoba chirped and said jokingly: "Along with those two little guys yesterday? How old are they? They are still young brats. If you hang out with them, you are simply... making people laugh."
Xu Shu grinned, looked at Shi Tao, and retorted: "Do you believe it? That little brother named Sima Yi can kill you in terms of resourcefulness."
"It's an exaggeration."
"Do not believe?"
Shi Tao opened his mouth. Although the two of them joked with each other every day, Xu Shu never joked randomly.
"No way, that little guy is that powerful?"
Xu Shu shook his head and said with a smile: "Do you know who his master is?"
Shi Tao looked at him.
Xu Shu pursed his lips towards the north of the city and said, "That's the man."
Shi Tao raised his eyebrows and squinted, and instantly became quiet... He still admired Wei Cheng.
"Okay, I made an appointment with them to go to Dingjunfang outside the city. If you have nothing to do, do you want to come with me to see the world?"
Xu Shu looked toward the clock tower in the center of the city. Although it was far away, he could vaguely see the hour displayed by the hands.
For almost everyone who comes to Anyi for the first time, the first thing they learn is how to read the big clock.
"It's already late." Shi Tao glanced at the big clock, nodded and said, "I have nothing to do, so I'll go for a walk with you."
Less than half an hour later.
The two of them walked all the way to Dingjunfang. They didn't know the specific location, so they found it by asking for directions.
Sima Yi and Cai Heng had been waiting at the door for a long time. When they saw Xu Shu, Sima Yi said angrily: "You are three quarters of an hour late."
Xu Shu was stunned for a moment, then turned around and looked towards the inner city, where could he see the big clock?
Seeing this, Sima Yi took out a pocket watch from his arms and said, "No need to doubt it, I'm holding the watch."
Cai Heng whispered from the side: "Well, today is the last day, please return the pocket watch to me."
Sima Yi frowned and said, "Isn't the last day over yet? Come and ask for it at midnight tonight."
Cai Heng clenched his fists angrily, "I fell asleep at midnight."
Sima Yi said proudly: "Then I'll pay you back tomorrow."
"Shameless."
"Who is so shameless? Don't you understand that you are willing to admit defeat?"
Sima Yi waved his hand and said: "Okay, hurry in, Governor Xu should be waiting in a hurry."
The city guards had been notified and took them directly into Dingjunfang and came to a wooden tower.
"Sima Yi, Cai Heng, and Xu Shu, please see Governor Xu."
"Here you are, come in and talk."
Xu Ding was writing at his desk. Hearing this, he raised his eyes and motioned to the futon next to him.
Sima Yi and the four of them took their seats in stages, cupping their hands and cupping their fists.
Xu Ding was still writing with his head down, and did not speak to them immediately. He just glanced at Xu Shu from time to time while writing.
Xu Shu knew about Xu Ding, but he only read about it from the "Dragon and Tiger List of the Great Han Dynasty". This was the first time he met him in person. His first impression was that Xu Ding was a serious person.
Shi Tao, on the other hand, glanced at the Yitian Sword behind Xu Ding from time to time... Yitian Xu Boyan and Dragon Slayer Xu Zhongkang, the two brothers are the right-hand men of Anyi Wei Gong. This is not a secret.
Shi Tao and Xu Shu just happened to be practicing swordsmanship. When they learned that there were magical weapons such as the Yitian Sword and the Dragon-Slaying Sword in the world, they had also imagined it.
It would be a lie to say he wasn't excited after watching the magic soldiers today. Shi Tao even had the idea of following Xu Shu and joining Wei Cheng's army.
"I'm sorry for keeping you waiting for so long. I'm busy with business."
Xu Ding put down his brush, looked at Sima Yi, and said with a smile: "You little guy, you finally managed to keep the clouds clear and the moon shine."
Sima Yi laughed and said: "Brother Xu, please don't laugh at me. Master has assigned an important task this time. If I mess up, he will not recognize me as his disciple. You must help me."
Xu Ding chuckled, stood up, walked to the side and pulled out a screen. On it was a map of the nine counties of Bingzhou.
Seeing this, Sima Yi hurriedly stood up, and Cai Heng and Xu Shu also hurriedly followed.
"Young Master has told me earlier that I should try my best to cooperate with you. However, now that there are many people in Hedong, if you want too many people at once, I'm afraid I have to say sorry."
Sima Yi turned around and looked at Cai Heng with a smile, and said with cupped hands: "Brother Xu, don't worry, we don't want too many people, just give us 10,000 city guards, plus 1,000 Longshan troops, other things will be easy to handle, first we can win Shuo Fang smoothly."
The essential."
Xu Ding did not look down on Sima Yi because of his young age, and said with a smile: "Don't flash your tongue when you talk, little guy. We all know that it is easier to attack a city than to defend it. This defense is not only military affairs, but also internal affairs and the needs of the people."
Hold on, can you?"
Sima Yi chuckled and patted his chest confidently, "How can a man say no?"
"I just have one more request."
"Talk about it."
"Can you borrow ten more marksmen from the Dragon Breath Team?"
