Chapter 118 Mr. Xiang, do you think your son is a fool?
Zhao Huan combed his hair back with his hands, walked towards the place where the soldiers were training, and said, "Have you found the tulip?"
Lian Zhongyi followed Zhao Huan and sighed: "She was seriously injured. As long as we search with all our strength under the mausoleum mountain, she will never escape. But what a coincidence, the Southern Zhou Army is making a fuss at this time."
"Xu Qingshan, Chen Jiudao, Tulip, and Cheng Shikong. Now these four people, like Luo Ying, have become Wen Tai's minions."
"It's all gone and empty."
"Um……"
Zhao Huan took two steps, stopped to take a breath, and said: "But if there is no Cheng Shikong, Wen Tai will find more Cheng Shikong. He wants to go all the way to the dark side."
Lian Zhongyi shook his feather fan lightly and said: "When you left Tianze Palace that day, Wen Tai was kind to you. Could it be that this assassination was arranged by Wen Hu and Wen Tai didn't know about it?"
Zhao Huan drooped his face and said expressionlessly: "Wen Tai will not be ignorant, he will only pretend to be ignorant. No matter what his attitude towards me was outside Tianze Hall, if he knew but didn't stop me, that's not what he wanted to do.
Did I burp?"
Lian Zhongyi nodded and said: "That's the truth."
"If you can't find it, you can't find it. Anyway, she didn't run to Lingshan Mountain, so she couldn't find it here."
Zhao Huan suddenly thought of something and asked: "What did you tell Acheng, how many people did I crowd into this mountain?"
"five hundred."
"Does he believe it?"
"With his brain, he definitely doesn't believe it, but if he makes a wild guess, it will probably only double. Do you think there are thousands of people on the mountain?"
"You should say one or two hundred."
Lian Zhongyi lowered his eyebrows and said, "Mr. Prime Minister, do you think your son is a fool?"
Zhao Huan: "..."
“That’s it, that’s it!”
Zhao Huan rested and continued walking forward, pointing at the training soldiers and saying, "If he knew that there were five thousand soldiers hiding in this mountain, would he still think that I was going to rebel?"
…
Qingdong City.
Xiao Mansion.
"Hahaha, Mr. Xiang has such a good drinking capacity, come on, come on, have another drink!"
The important figures of the Xiao family were lined up, and only Zhao Cheng was placed second only to the head of the family, Xiao Tian. After getting acquainted with each other, Xiao Tian pulled Zhao Chenghai to drink.
Sitting in a row opposite the Xiao family were Huang Zhen, the governor of Qingdong City, Chen Hai, the prime minister, and other prominent figures in Qingdong City.
The Xiao family's reception was prepared for Zhao Cheng's visit to Qingdong City that day, so it was considered a late dinner.
After Zhao Cheng was knocked unconscious by Yang Taozhi that day, he was already at the inn when he woke up. He didn't blame Yang Taozhi afterwards, and he didn't even mention the Lingshan incident anymore, as if he had figured something out.
Zhao Cheng drank with Xiao Tian enthusiastically, and also played with Huang Taishou, Chen Shucheng and others one after another, looking very happy.
Chen Hai acted very calmly towards the return of Zhao Cheng and Xiao Luofeng, as if he had no idea what happened in Lingshan, but Zhao Cheng still found a hint of sinisterness in his eyes.
"Thank you very much, Boss Xiao. I actually have an average drinking capacity, but I just drink too much!"
"It's good to be greedy for cups! People who are greedy for cups are really good-natured!"
"Boss Xiao is really good at praising people. Xiao Luomu learned this skill from you, right?"
"This is not a skill, it is admiration from the heart!"
Xiao Tian raised his wine glass and said: "Although the young prime minister claims to be a playboy, he is actually the smartest man in the world! The spies of the Southern Zhou Dynasty have been lurking in Yanchuan City for many years without even being discovered by the court, but they were discovered by the young prime minister.
!A person like Mr. Xiaoxiang is definitely a great talent!"
"Don't dare, don't dare..."
"It's not like my two sons, who can't do anything in martial arts!"
Xiao Tian suddenly changed the topic, looked at Xiao Luofeng, frowned and said: "I have been a soldier for so many years, but I haven't made a name for myself!"
Xiao Luofeng said: "My son disagrees with what my father said. He is just serving the country. What are you talking about?!"
"Who wants to be a general all day long?"
Xiao Tian pointed at Xiao Luofeng, and the more he spoke, the more energetic he became, and with a little anger, he said: "I know it's hard for you to be a soldier, and it's not easy to fight with real swords and guns. It can be said to be one step at a time. But! Do you think?
Is it enough to just rely on hard work? Without spending money or relying on connections, do you think you can become a general by just gaining seniority?"
"Dad!" Xiao Luofeng stood up and said, "Prefect Huang and the others are still here, be careful what you say!"
"We are all acquaintances, what is there to say?" Xiao Tian looked at Huang Zhen and said, "Master Prefect, am I wrong?"
Huang Zhenhe Xini said: "Boss Xiao, maybe you have too high requirements for your son. Xiao Shouwei is already the captain of a city at a young age. To be honest, he is much stronger than me back then..."
"That's right, Dad, I'm happy today, let's not talk about this." Xiao Luomu came over to support Xiao Tian.
Xiao Tian threw his hand away and said: "You are not much better! From now on, you will learn more from the little Prime Minister, you know?"
"Yes, yes... the young prime minister treats me like a brother, I will definitely learn more from him!"
Zhao Cheng interjected: "Don't mess around, don't ask me to collect semen."
With that said, Zhao Cheng raised his glass and touched it with Xiao Tian, interrupted him and said: "Boss Xiao, don't be anxious, maybe one day Shouwei Xiao will make great achievements."
"He?" Xiao Tian shook his head: "What great achievements can he make in Qingdong City? He might as well come back and help the family take care of business!"
When Zhao Cheng said this, he glanced at Chen Hai secretly and saw that Chen Hai was eating food with his head down, but the hand holding the chopsticks stiffened.
At this time, Xiao Tian's younger brother Xiao Ming came over with a wine glass and a very enthusiastic smile.
"Brother, don't criticize Luo Feng. A man has his own ideals. I believe that as long as Luo Feng persists, he will definitely succeed!"
With that said, he raised his glass to Zhao Cheng and said with a smile: "Tonight is the welcome banquet for the young prime minister. Let's not talk about anything else, only the romance."
Zhao Cheng immediately beamed with joy and raised his glass: "What a man who only talks about romance! Boss Xiao Er's words are very much what I like!"
Zhao Cheng looked around and said with a smile: "We have a heaven and earth world in Yanchuan City. There are some popular drinking games in it. They are quite interesting. How about we play and drink?"
"Very good!!" Xiao Ming smiled broadly. It seemed that he was also a cynical playboy when he was young. He immediately shouted: "Master!!"
After saying this, a dozen girls in full bloom and scrimped on food and clothing wandered in.
Xiao Mingdao: "Since we are going to play the game of heaven and earth, how can we not have a beautiful woman to accompany us to drink?"
Zhao Cheng winked at Xiao Ming and said, "It seems that Boss Xiao Er has been there too!"
"Everyone who enters Yanchuan will enter heaven and earth!"
"You are a fellow-minded person! Come on, come on, Boss Xiao Er, I respect you!!"
Zhao Cheng became more enthusiastic and joked, this is his big customer!
Under Zhao Cheng's drinking game, the atmosphere among everyone reached a boiling point. Some drunk people had completely forgotten their identities during the day, and jumped among the dancers to dance with them. Some even took off the dancers' clothes.
It reminds Zhao Cheng of the scene in the business KTV in his previous life.
"For rich people who love to have fun, no matter what the country is, it's a prosperous time at night."
After Zhao Cheng got them drunk, he got out and sat behind the desk to eat hard.
At this time, Zhao Wu ran in in a panic and quickly came behind him.
Zhao Cheng rarely saw Zhao Wu like this. He stopped the chicken drumstick that was about to be put into his mouth and asked, "What's wrong?"
