Sheng Fu

Chapter 722: Drunk, a little ungentlemanly

Yu Wenjun watched Xu Huanshan walk out of the tent, his heart calm.

The decadence of politicians is still quite strong in Xu Huanshan.

Throughout the ages, countless comrades-in-arms on the battlefield have parted ways in the temple where people's hearts are evil, and even fought against each other with swords. Yuwen Jun did not want to go to that step with Xu Huanshan, because Yuwen Jun knew very well that when one day he lost his original value in the heart of His Majesty the Human Emperor, he would inevitably go to this step with Xu Huanshan.

It is better to break off some delicate relationships as soon as possible, which will be a comfort to both parties.

"What a pity, you and I are destined not to be the same kind of people." Yu Wenjun sighed.

In the camp.

Zhang Benchu ​​and Yan Zhao were talking with Qi Yuan and other young generals when they suddenly heard the horn signaling the army to assemble.

"I wish you all great success in the next battle and that you remain unscathed."

"We'll go first, see you later."

The soldiers of Hengchang gathered in an orderly manner.

Yuwen Jun walked out of the central military tent, and soon Zhang Benchu ​​and Yan Zhao arrived.

"Withdraw troops and return to Saibei City." Yu Wenjun said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Benchu ​​wanted to ask him how his conversation with Senior Brother Xu Huanshan went, but when he saw a hint of sadness on Yu Wenjun's face, he gave up the idea.

The two of them hurried down to arrange the specific matters of the withdrawal.

About half an incense stick later, the Hengchang soldiers finished their reorganization. Yuwen Jun waved his sleeves, constructed a void passage, and led everyone back to Saibei City.

Xu Huanshan did not come to see him off, because the next battle would not be easy for the temporary commander-in-chief. If the 30,000 golden armored troops won, everything would be easy. If they lost, Xu Huanshan would be in a desperate situation.

Whether he can gain a firm foothold in the military and secure his position as the young commander-in-chief depends on how he commands and dispatches troops next.

In fact, he still wanted to see the Hengchang soldiers off on their return journey.

Maybe he couldn't say many polite words to Yuwen Jun, but he still had a good relationship with Zhang Benchu, and Zhang Benchu ​​was also a nostalgic person.

But from beginning to end, Yuwen Jun never gave Xu Huanshan such an opportunity.

Saibei City, City Lord’s Mansion.

After returning, Zhang Benchu ​​and Yan Zhao set up camp in the old place.

Yuwen Jun and Jing Peiyao came to the city lord's mansion.

It was lunchtime, and inside the hall, the table was filled with delicious food, with a variety of colors, aromas and flavors, as well as a pot of old wine.

Yue Bo personally went out to greet the Ba Gu couple.

“Zhang Benchu ​​has already prepared a celebration banquet for them. After winning the battle, how can we not celebrate? There will be banquets tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.” Yue Bo said with a smile on his face.

In Yue Bo's eyes, Yu Wenjun is not an easy person to deal with.

In Yue Bo's eyes, Jing Peiyao was even more of a troublemaker. He still remembered the time when this descendant of the empress rode a white tiger into the depths of the imperial palace to confront His Majesty the Human Emperor.

But so what? They won the first prize and killed the great monster Lingxiao.

Although their positions in the government were different, in Saibei City, Yue Bo admired and respected the young couple from the bottom of his heart.

The three of them sat around a table, and Yu Wenjun suddenly asked, "Where is Jiang Zheng?"

Yue Bo smiled gently and said, "Most people have already gone to the battlefield. I still have a few old generals around me, but they don't know Benchu. I have to let someone go and have a few drinks with them."

Yu Wenjun smiled implicitly and said, "As expected of the Grand Marshal, he can even think of things at the wine table so thoughtfully."

Yue Bo took the initiative to pick up two pieces of the best braised pork for Yu Wenjun and Jing Peiyao. "Xu Huanshan still has feelings for you." Yue Bo suddenly said.

Yu Wenjun heard this and said, "We are all classmates. If we don't cherish each other's past, it would seem too heartless and ungrateful."

Yue Bo smiled and asked, "Then would you be a heartless and ungrateful person?"

Yuwen Jun didn't expect Yue Bo to lead his army like this, and said with a calm smile: "If you were ruthless and unrighteous, Senior Li Guangxin would be dead by now."

Yue Bo understood immediately and said with a smile: "I see!"

Yue Bo poured wine for Yu Wenjun and Jing Peiyao. At this table, there was no male superiority or female inferiority, only the friendship of comrades.

Yu Wenjun said: "The next battle is all counting on you. We may return to Henglong Mountain. I think the State Master has also told you about it."

Yue Bo was not displeased when he heard this, and said calmly: "Of course, you have made a good start. I also know that you, the soldiers of Hengchang, are short of manpower now. In the future, you may have to make some arrangements in the North Sea. It is quite difficult for these 5,000 elite soldiers to be preserved intact."

"I am not a person who does not know the big picture."

"After this battle, those generals who were upset because you took the Flying Dragon Cavalry away will have fewer prejudices against you. In the future, when we fight side by side, you will be recognized by more people. Perhaps, many people under my command will be willing to sacrifice their lives for you, His Highness the Dragon."

"But at least, you can't leave until this celebration banquet is completely over."

"Our kindness should not be wasted."

Yuwen Jun raised his glass and clinked it with Yue Bo, while Jing Peiyao raised her glass and took a sip.

The wine tasted a little unpleasant for the descendant of the empress. She was a woman who was gentle on the outside but strong on the inside, but she had no feelings for wine.

The two Snow Pengs were still on the battlefield. Yuwen Jun and Jing Peiyao had discussed that they could launch a surprise attack if necessary, but the prerequisite was that the opportunity must be ripe enough.

As for whether he could return to the battlefield, Yu Wenjun did not dare to guarantee it.

Because there are some arrangements at the Mountain of Bright Souls in the Demonic Realm.

Yu Wenjun said softly, "Thank you."

Yue Bo smiled helplessly and said, "There's no need to be polite between you and me. In fact, if you count carefully, you two have never been polite in front of me."

"It's good this way, there are fewer unnecessary rules."

Yuwen Jun took the initiative to pick up the wine glass, clinked it with Yue Bo, and then drank it all in one gulp.

Yu Wenjun smiled slightly strangely and said, "To use a phrase often used by businessmen and officials, a thousand words are all in the wine."

Upon hearing this, Yue Bo couldn't help but burst into laughter, and his hearty laughter spread to every corner of the City Lord's Mansion.

Jing Peiyao only drank one glass of wine from beginning to end, and didn't say much, because she didn't know what to say...

At the banquet, Yue Bo became interested and kept drinking with Yu Wenjun.

"When Xu Huanshan and I drink, I am always not so happy because I am the elder and he is the younger. But it is different with you. In terms of age, you are indeed my junior, but in fact, you and I are equal."

"And I also know that you are on an equal footing with many others."

"So we drank very happily during this meal."

"I hope that one day, you, me, and Qi Han can sit together and have a drink."

Yu Wenjun was also a little drunk at the moment, and laughed: "There will be such an opportunity. When the time comes, the three of us will get drunk and go to the brothel together to arrange flowers and jade, and make love. It will be so happy!"

When Jing Peiyao heard this, she rolled her eyes. It was unclear whether it was out of helplessness, disgust or anger. In short, the meaning of this eye roll was somewhat complicated.

"Okay, I'll treat you then." Yue Bo opened his heart completely, without any trace of politeness or decency.
