Chinese dining table

Chapter 567 Let’s start with the fat ones

Fang Zheng became more and more square, and his stomach was still protruding high. Fortunately, Yun Chu was thinner and his arms were still longer, so that he could wrap his arms around Fang Zheng's shoulders and hug each other.

"It's been ten years since I left Kucha. Seeing that my brother is as strong as ever, my little brother is so worried that he finally landed on the ground."

"Brother Yu's famous name, and his invincibility in Liaodong, Brother Yu often learns from the documents that he congratulates his brother while drinking, wishing he could fly to the East China Sea with his wings and fight side by side with him."

"Hahaha, our brothers are finally reunited, come, come, treat me as your elder brother Yanke"

"Hahaha, that's exactly what I mean. The Western Regions are barren and closed. It's rare to see a hero in the capital. Brother Yu is waiting to get close to all the sages."

After Yunchu took Fangzheng's greasy hand and introduced him to Pei Xingjian, Wenrou, Zhong Kui, Wang Fangyi, Zhang Donghai, Liang Ying and the others, he took Fangzheng to sit on his guest of honor seat, and raised his wine glass and said: "Today I gather with old friends, you don't need to be polite, just drink to your heart's content"

Pei Xingjian raised his glass very face-to-face, Wen Wen and the others raised their glasses frequently, inviting Fang Zheng to drink.

As soon as Fangzheng came, the originally well-regulated banquet reached its climax. Pei Xingjian clapped his hands, and there were singers, dancers, and musicians seated. Blinking her big eyes, twisting her neck, she began to dance in a charming manner.

The music was too loud and it was not suitable for talking, so Yunchu dragged Fangzheng to drink endlessly, both of them drank until the glass was dry, without a moment's delay.

This drink lasted until midnight, when everyone felt exhausted, Fangzheng was about to leave, but Yunchu refused, so he took him back to the temporary residence, ordered his servants to prepare some food and wine, and prepared to continue the conversation.

After getting out, it was only then that the sky over Jiaohe City was covered with red clouds and the wind howling.

"This Hu Tian started to snow in August, and Brother Yu has been here for 14 years."

Yunchu had just lit the small stove, took out two pine cones and threw them into the red clay stove, heard the crackling of the pine cones, sat the kettle on the stove, and said softly, "I can't go to the capital at this time."

Fang Zheng said, "My brothers-in-law also mean the same thing. However, I have already spent too many years in the Western Regions, and I can't make it any longer. A Biejia from the sixth rank is already the highest position I can get in the Western Regions."

Yunchu crushed the walnuts, picked out the walnut kernels, and roasted a few dates on a small stove. After a burnt smell appeared, he put them into the kettle together with the raisins to cook.

"If you don't want to stay in the capital, you can plan something. If you want to stay in the capital, I think it's better to be quiet than to move."

Fangzheng moved his obese body forward and said, "Yuchu thinks that Changsun will lose this time?"

Yun Chu thought about Li Zhi's screen with the names of Captain Zhechong written all over the world, and sighed, "Your Majesty is really too powerful."

Fang Zheng said, "Is it so powerful that even the Changsun family can't compete?"

Yun Chu said, "The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are no match for His Majesty. If you stay in the capital at this time, you will easily suffer disaster. No, my younger brother also came to the Western Regions to find my elder brother for protection."

While talking, Yun Chu took out a sugar cube pressed with icing sugar from a celadon sugar bowl, put it in a square tea bowl, picked up the boiling tea, and poured it into the tea bowl, the sugar cube melted slowly at a speed visible to the naked eye .

Fangzheng took a sip of tea, nodded and said "good tea"

Yun Chu also poured tea for himself, and while thinking, he tapped on the table and said, "After the matter of the Changsun family is over, Your Majesty will take Luoyang as the capital of the gods and stay there permanently. After the imperial court has gone to the capital of the gods, Chang'an is lonely It’s true, if my brother wants to return to the Central Plains, he should seek an official position in the capital of God, not Chang’an.”

Fangzheng repeatedly shook his head and said, "Brother Yu, you know what you are good at. The reason why you have been promoted in the Western Regions is because you have some good brothers-in-law.
If you rashly go to the capital of God, you may die without a place to bury yourself.

Let’s go to Chang’an, with a virtuous brother by his side, Brother Yu can keep this official position and seek a glorious ancestor.”

Yun Chu pushed the teacup towards Fang, motioning him to continue drinking tea, and then said softly, "Brother, right now, you should be worried about the wealth you got in the Western Regions these years, right?"

Fangzheng looked at Yunchu with twinkling eyes, then became firm and nodded, "If you pass Yumen Pass, you will be skinned and cramped."

"So, when the younger brother returns to Beijing this time, the elder brother intends to go back together?"

Fangzheng looked into Yunchu's eyes and said, "There are not many people who I can trust completely, my virtuous brother ranks first.
Speaking of which, Brother Yu has indeed obtained a lot of money in the Western Regions over the years. However, if there is a lot of money, Brother Yu is not alone. Unknowingly, he has inextricably linked with the officials of the Western Regions
So, if the virtuous brother can help to settle this matter, Brother Yu promises that the virtuous brother will be able to get wind and rain in the Western Regions.”

Yun Chu was silent, and Fang Zheng didn't continue to ask. After the two drank a pot of tea quietly, Fang Zheng said goodbye and went back. When the door was opened, the snowflakes finally fell, and the snow fell heavily.

After Yunchu washed, he fell asleep and didn't even have a dream that night.

The next day, Yunchu sent someone to send Fangzheng a lot of gifts, none of which were too expensive, there were all kinds of smoked meat, all kinds of dried vegetables, cotton quilts, cotton jackets, cotton trousers, cotton shoes, and ones with ears Hat and a goggle polished with crystal.

There are also fine wines brewed by Shitan Zhixia Winery.

Fangzheng was not around, so he hurried back to Gaochang City at dawn.

When Wenrou came over, Yunchu was drinking mutton soup, a bowl of mutton soup should be delicious in the cold weather.

"I heard that Xizhou don't drive Fangzheng and left at dawn?"

Yun Chu nodded and said, "If it was his business alone, I would help him, but in the end, he was doing things for others." Text\./Study\./Network\./First\./Publish

Rourou frowned and thought for a while, "What should I do? It should be the boss's fortune."

Yunchu fished out a piece of mutton from the mutton soup and ate it, and said slowly, "What should I do? First, we came to the Western Regions to open up business channels, and second, we came to get more savings for Chang'an City, so that we can deal with the emperor." The dilemma we have to face after leaving Xi’an, since the amount of money is huge, we naturally cannot miss it.”

Gently smiled and said, "Okay, since you have decided, leave the matter to me, and it will be done very well."

Yun Chu hesitated and said, "Leave some for Lao Fang. If he has lost his savings for many years, he will die of heartache."

He smiled softly, "He didn't know that you were saving him, and he might hate you for the rest of his life"

Yunchu recalled Fangzheng's broken leg by his brother-in-law and smiled, "It's okay, just beat him once, if it doesn't work, just beat him twice until he is grateful."

"He is really lucky to have an old friend like you. The emperor appointed Pei Xingjian as the governor of Anxi, Xue Rengui as the governor of Beiting, and then sent us to be the supervisor. The purpose is for money.

After all, the emperor moved to Shendu and asked for money everywhere.

A fat pig like Lao Fang has long been targeted by Pei Xingjian, right? "

Yun Chu smiled wryly and said, "The royal family guards the Yumen Pass. When we left the pass, the captain did not show his face. This is a very bad sign. That is to say, even if we enter the pass in the future, they will not let us go easily. Pei Xingjian , Xue Rengui and the two who did the dirty work, together with those of us who supervised their dirty work, finally blocked the way back with the royal family, you can’t say that your Majesty’s plan is not clever.”

Gently smiled and said, "Since you plan to get some money to stay in Chang'an, it means that you must break the emperor's cage."

If you don't want to go to Yumen Pass, you have to go to Xu Jingye and the Tubo people's territory. These two roads are not so easy, especially when you have a lot of money with you, whether it is Xu Jingye or Lunqin Ling, I won't let you go easily.

You have to consider the issue of cost. If the cost is too high, it is safest to go all the way through Yumen Pass

I believe that the emperor will leave some of us in the end.”

Yun Chu nodded and said, "Yes, indeed, we should plan carefully, the emperor's plan is not impeccable."

Seeing that Yunchu was in a better mood, Rourou said to him, "Naha's law is going to continue westward in three days, should we go all the way with her?"

Yun Chu shook his head and said, "No, I have discussed it with Naha. We will meet in Qiuci, and then we will go back to Daxue Mountain together."

"So, Naha's Buddha Kingdom is really going to settle in Daxue Mountain?"

Yun Chu nodded and said, "Grasshopper Lake is really beautiful, you should go and have a look."

Gentlely said, "In that case, I'll arrange it. After we leave, I will start Fang Zheng's affairs."

Thinking of that fat man who was greedy for money, Yun Chu couldn't help but sighed, "Don't kill him"

Rourou snorted coldly and said, "This time, Gao Xian, the governor of Xizhou himself, may survive, but those who come down from him will inevitably die."

Yun Chu smiled and said, "Don't be so irritable. Didn't Pei Xingjian say it? You need to proceed step by step, you need martial arts, not martial arts. It's best if everyone eats and drinks. Don't get blood on your hands."

"The people who execute it are Zhang Donghai and his group. Maybe it will give us some face, but it shouldn't be a big problem for Fangzheng to survive, and it's not a big problem for him to leave some money, but it seems that you still want to keep his official position. It’s too difficult, to be honest, it’s the first time I’ve seen you be so gentle for a corrupt official.”

Yun Chu spread his hands and said, "I really can't hate this damned fat man. When I was in Qiuci, don't forget that I was with him. It was because of the first pot of gold I got in the Western Regions that I became rich." In Yun's current situation, when it comes to corruption, I cannot escape the responsibility."

"Zhang Donghai told me that the governor's office of Xizhou is rotten. The successor of the governor of Xizhou, don't drive the officials, probably will soon arrive in Gaochang City. You think Fangzheng's official position can't be kept?"

Yunchu rascally said, "This is a matter for a smart person like you, I think you must handle things safely."

Wenrou yelled, and left Yunchu's room. Just because of Yunchu's words, he had to rearrange, which was very troublesome.

Sending Wenrou away, Yunchu saw Naha's flushed face appearing on the courtyard wall smiling at him.

Yun Chu jumped on the wall, lifted the bloated Naha up from the other side of the wall, jumped off the wall again, brushed off the snowflakes on her cloak and said, "I'm still running around at this time."

Naha got into the room, threw off her shoes and jumped onto Yunchu's bed, wrapped herself tightly with the quilt, and then shouted, "I'm going to be bored to death"
