Chapter 53 Men and Wine

Wine is like a woman, men cannot live without wine, just like women. Cao Liu talks about heroes when cooking wine, Guan Gong kills Hua Xiong with warm wine, Li Bai's hundred poems on wine, Wu Er drunks Jingyanggang..., wine can be messy, indulges in love, and can increase blood and courage.

When they are happy, they have to drink, when they are sad, when they are bored, when they still have to drink. When they are worried, they still have to drink. When they talk about Ye Xiaotian and Hua Qingfeng, it is difficult to tell what the relationship between them is, but even if it was just a simple social event at the beginning, when a jar of good wine is finally met, they talked about everything like a pair of friends who have been together for many years.

"I can't compare to your circumstances! But I haven't defeated you!"

Hua Qingfeng paused with a confused mouth and spitted on Ye Xiaotian's face. Such a misbehavior would definitely not be able to do when he was awake. Ye Xiaotian smiled bitterly and wiped his face, and could only nod: "Yes, yes, sir, you..."

"You don't have to be polite to me!" Hua Qingfeng was very excited and spitted Ye Xiaotian again: "It's not that I'm unwilling to accept it. After I retired, I jumped out of the room. Then I thought about it repeatedly. I have thought about it seriously!"

Hua Qingfeng pounded the table hard and stared at Ye Xiaotian with blood-red eyes. It seemed that as long as Ye Xiaotian retorted, he would pounce on and pinch Ye Xiaotian's neck. Su Xuntian said laughing and crying: "Brother-in-law, you are drunk, you..."

"Go on the side! Fortunately, my brother-in-law loves you so much, you are a traitor!" Hua Qingfeng cursed, and Su Xuntian said embarrassedly.

Hua Qingfeng beat his chest and said to Ye Xiaotian: "I can't figure it out, it's okay if others betray me. Why does my brother betray me? Who else is more worthy of his follower than me and worthy of his trust? I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out after thinking for a long time..."

Ye Xiaotian quickly picked up the glass: "If you can't figure it out, don't think about it. Come on, let's drink."

Hua Qingfeng glared at her eyes, raised a mouthful of Dantian Qi, and shouted: "Later, I finally figured it out!"

Ye Xiaotian said in surprise: "Is that so? Oh. That's really good..."

Hua Qingfeng burped, drank the wine in the glass, and gasped and said, "I figured it out, because I can't be trusted! If someone wants to follow you, you can be violent and perverse, or be kind and righteous. You can be wise and unparalleled, or you can be brave enough to be a man. There will be people following you, but you dare not take responsibility and have no responsibility. No one will follow you!"

Ye Xiaotian quickly said, "My sir, this is like a sudden enlightenment, making Xiaotian suddenly enlightened..."

Hua Qingfeng squinted at him and snorted coldly: "You boy, don't pretend to me. Don't you just think I'm drunk and coax me as a drunk? I didn't drink too much, I'm just psychological. I didn't lose to anyone. No matter Meng Qingwei, Qi Mu, Xu Boyi, Wang Ning, you or anyone, I'm defeated to myself!"

Ye Xiaotian said carefully: "Xiaotian is now a local official and has no conflict with the old man anymore. But I wonder if he has the idea of ​​making a comeback? You are in your prime. If you are willing to make a comeback, I hope you can still go to Guizhou. You and I will abandon your past grudges and work together again!"

Hua Qingfeng stared at him for a while, picked up the empty cup, and raised his head to the sky. He shouted: "The moon is the lamp, the ground is the stool. The breeze drank, and he was drunk and had no return!"

"Boom!"

Hua Qingfeng pounced on the desk, drunk and unconscious.

There was wine everywhere. How much wine was? The outside guest was thirsty and wanted to drink a sip of water. As a result, he found that there was wine in the glass, wine in the bowl, wine in the scoop, wine in the jar, wine in the jar, and even the winding stone trough was wine.

The aroma of glutinous rice wine spreads the entire Feigeling.

The wedding ceremony of Chief Shiqian Chief Cao Tusi is being held here.

Cao Tusi, whose name is Ning and whose courtesy name is Ruixi. In fact, Cao Tusi's territory is quite large, and the entire Shiqian Mansion is under his rule. However, just as some dukes' territory and national strength may not be as good as some earls in the Spring and Autumn Period, Chief Cao was only at the same level as Chief Tixi, a subordinate of the Zhang family in Tongren.

But what does this matter? The rule of ruling on this land is: whoever has a strong fist will be the king. Cao Tusi is only at the same level as the chieftains of the Zhang family in Tixi from the level of official positions given by the court, but can be on par with Fatty Zhang.

Cao Tusi's wedding was full of greetings from all over the world, and the farthest came from Yun, Myanmar and other places. Due to the different distances of the guests, they had to come one after another. Therefore, the wedding banquet was very long, with firecrackers sounding all day long, and the sound of sheng, flute, gongs and drums were loud. Now the wedding has lasted for a month and seven days and is still being held.

So far, the Cao family has used 30,000 kilograms of pork alone, not to mention cattle, sheep, chicken, duck, fish and geese. The wine pond is like a forest, but this is just like this. This is just a small chieftain in Guizhou, which is regarded as a remote place by the people in other parts of the Ming Dynasty. The money and property squandered during the wedding has already made the royal families of Western empires such as England and France in the same era.

As a prince who held the power of life and death among the local people, Cao Ning had a habit of not riding horses or riding cars when he went out. Instead, he rode a man. In his mansion, he specially raised dozens of fat, powerful women, specially used as his mounts.

The chief official's office was built on the hillside, and the scope of the mansion was really larger. When Cao Ning sent the chief Yang Xianmin, the chieftain of Shiqian Yang family, to walk when he left, he was too lazy to walk when he came back, but instead rode on the neck of a "mount". Fortunately, he was as thin as a monkey, with a clever body, and was free from up and down, and it would not be too difficult for people to struggle.

The office is facing south and north, with brick-built courtyard walls, a 8-shaped gantry door with wide outside and narrow inside. The stone steps below are polished as jade and have deep dents. There are many places on the roof tiles, showing the long history of this manor.

A fat woman rode Cao Tusi on her neck and stepped into the dragon gate. Cao Tusi rode a man since she was a child and had extremely skilled skills. Even if the fat woman crossed the threshold, she sat steadily on it, without moving at all.

After passing through the patio, there is a money and grain room, a stable, and a room. Then there is a stone pier built about two meters high and seven or eight meters wide. The house built on it is the Department of the Ministry. Bypassing the Department of the Ministry, there is another courtyard with left and right wing rooms and a living room on the front. Going back is the Martial Arts Hall. Then continue to be the court where Cao Ning and his family live.

Various banners were hung on the main hall of the inner house, with noble gifts such as silk, satin, wood carvings, strange stones and porcelain. This was an antique courtyard with a quartz and painted building in the main hall, which was very magnificent. One floor and one bottom, two floors were nailed, and wood chips were intertwined in the middle to sound insulation. When you walk upstairs, you can't hear the sound downstairs.

There is a pair of stone lions in front of the main hall. The bluestone slabs, stone ridges, stone foundations and guardrails in the yard are all carved patterns. There are merging watchtowers on the guard wall. There are five-story watchtowers on the south courtyard wall at the foot of the mountain. Each floor has a triangular arrow mouth, which is as tight as a military fortress.

When he arrived at the door, the fat woman squatted down and supported the ground with her hands. Cao Ning got off her and stepped into the door. A man immediately came out of it and said with a smile: "I heard that Yang Tusi is here, why did he leave like this?"

Cao Ning curled his lips and said, "He had no time to delay housework with his brothers. He sent me a gift and sat for a while, and went back without even drinking the wedding banquet. Humph, as a toast, even his subordinates can't suppress it, which is useless."

The visitor is considered to be taller than Cao Ning, who looks like a thin monkey. He walked into the main hall with Cao Ning, lowered his voice and smiled: "It seems that Brother Ruixi is very disdainful of Yang Xianmin's character. So... are you planning to cooperate with Yang Xianda?"

Cao Ning smiled sly, glanced at the left and right, and said twice: "Yang Xianmin is a legitimate chieftain. He thinks everything in the Yang family belongs to him. Even if it is temporarily in the hands of his brothers, as long as he firmly controls the position of chieftain, when the brothers' family is no longer so strong in the future, they will still be assigned to him in this room. How can they cooperate with me to calculate his own property?"

The visitor raised his finger and said, "Brother Ruixi is brilliant!" Cao Ning raised his head and laughed.

The person walking next to Cao Ning was Zhao Wenyuan who came from Bozhou. Yang Yinglong heard him tell some of Ye Xiaotian's deeds in detail, and carefully analyzed Ye Xiaotian's character from these deeds.

For the same thing, people with different personalities will make different choices. Of course, when most people make choices, due to the circumstances and constraints they are in, they will first make more inclined choices, but on this basis, specific practices will still be affected by their personality.

Ye Xiaotian is one of the few people in this world who are less hindered. Because of the influence of thousands of years of doctrine, the mountain people who are blocked from the deep mountains are too obedient to him. In this way, the more severe the traces of Ye Xiaotian's actions are affected by his personality.

After analyzing Ye Xiaotian's personality and character in detail, Yang Yinglong and he made a plan, saying it was a plan, but in fact it only pointed out a direction for Zhao Wenyuan. Things in the world change rapidly, so Yang Yinglong would not be stupid enough to tell Zhao Wenyuan what step he did. He just pointed out a direction that could be taken, and the specific operation was fully released to Zhao Wenyuan.

Ye Xiaotian's climate has become better in Tongren, especially there is Yu Junting who knows the background of Bozhou but betrays the king of heaven and turns to Ye Xiaotian's arms. It is not appropriate to lay out this place, so they chose the location in Shiqian, which is adjacent to Tongren.

Among the powerful chieftains of Shiqian, the first one is of course Cao Ning, the second one is the deputy chieftain Tong family, the third one is Zhan Boxiong Zhan family, and the third one is the Yang family. However, among the four chieftains of Shiqian, the territory of the Tong family is located west and closest to Bozhou. Once Yang Yinglong rebelled, he would take the lead in annexing with the force of Mount Tai to crush the eggs, so there was no need to make any decisions about him.

Among the remaining three chieftains, the strategy set for the Zhan family was to win over, while the other two wanted to provoke the fight between them by driving the tiger and swallowing the wolf. These two were the Cao family and the Shiqian Yang family. The two brothers of the Yang family have always been on guard against the main house of the Bozhou family and are now doing housework. This is the good goal of knowing the color. Therefore, Zhao Wenyuan came to the Cao family in Fei'eling like a night owl.
