Xuanyuan Shengcai's face turned red, and he seemed to be drunk a long time ago, but he was full of drunkenness, but he was able to hold on. On the contrary, Da Xizhang was already seventy percent drunk.

As far as Huang Tu, the servant of the Ministry of Rites, was already lying on the table, maybe he was tired all day, or maybe he was too drunk and snored loudly.

Da Xizhang's bronze-colored face was red when he was drunk, and there were already several empty jars lying here and there. Can't drink any more... Alcohol is forbidden on weekdays, except on special days... Even I don't drink at all... Today, today all of a sudden Drinking like this, if... If you are seen by the brothers, it is always bad...!"

Xuanyuan Shengcai was drunk, but he took Da Xizhang's hand and said, "Da Xi...General Da Xi, you...you know, the Duke used to... ..When we talked about you in private, I just... praised you again and again...!"

"Oh?" Da Xizhang sat down after listening to Xuanyuan Shengcai's words, "Young...major general, the old man...how does he say it?"

"The Duke said, you, Da Xizhang... Da Xizhang is a cautious person, but... you are affectionate and righteous, and... and you have outstanding talents...! "Xuanyuan Shengcai's tongue seemed to grow bigger, "He let you... let you come to Xiguguan, really... really reluctant...!"

"Major General, where did this... come from?"

Xuanyuan Shengcai said: "The Duke...the Duke said, you...your talent is more than enough to serve as a commander, but...you are asked to guard the pass. Overkill, in fact...in fact, this is the trust of the court in you, and also...it is also the prince who wants to train you, and sooner or later he will entrust you with important tasks..." He stood up Come on, take Da Xizhang's hand and shake it, "General Da Xi, if the Duke and... and the Holy Majesty didn't think you were loyal and reliable, it wouldn't be possible for you to make friends at Xigu Pass." Into your hand...!"

Although Da Xizhang was slightly drunk, he still cupped his fists and arched to the east, saying: "The sage is wise, the Duke... the Duke loves you, Da Xizhang... Da Xizhang Wan Death cannot be reported...!"

"General Daxi, wait until... until the imperial court uses troops to the northwest, your defenders at Xiguguan will naturally... naturally have to be reused, then... then you will make military exploits , to be promoted to a noble, of course it is... of course it is not a problem!" Xuanyuan Sheng said vaguely: "Don't worry, I... I will also... in front of the Duke... I strongly recommend you in front of you, no matter what, one of the princes is... that is not a problem...!"

"Thank you...thank you, Young General!" Daxi said with a tinge of joy, "If...if you are honored by the court, you must be heartbroken to repay the court and... and Duke ...!"

"In that case, let's... let's...for the court, for the Duke, drink...!" He reached out and grabbed half a jar of wine from the table, and handed it to Daxi Zhang Zhang said: "As the saying goes, it is good to drink wine with a bosom friend for a thousand cups. Daxi...General Daxi, although Xuanyuan is younger than you, but...but I want to become brothers with you, I don't know ...How do you know if you don't know?"

Although Da Xizhang was very drunk, he still maintained a semblance of reason. At this time, when he heard that Xuanyuan Shengcai was going to make sworn brothers with him, he was startled at first, and then he was overjoyed.

Although he was recommended by the Xuanyuan family and attached to the Xuanyuan family, but in terms of status, it can be said that he is only a retainer of the Xuanyuan family, but if he can become a brother with Xuanyuan Shengcai, then the relationship with the Xuanyuan family is natural is much more intimate.

He knew that it was Xuanyuan Sheng who was drunk, and made such a proposal on a whim, but for Da Xizhang, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and he said without hesitation: "Young general...the young general is so It's important, although it's the first time I've had a drink with the Major General today, we hit it off right away, and being able to become brothers with the Major General is really... wishful for...!"

Xuanyuan Sheng handed the wine jar to Xi Zhang, and said, "Take it!"

Da Xizhang took the wine jar, and Xuanyuan Sheng took the other wine jar, raised the wine jar, and said: "The yellow sky is thick with soil, today...today I, Xuanyuan Sheng, and... .I fell in love with Da Xizhang at first sight, we fell in love with each other, and we are willing to become...brothers with different surnames...!"

Da Xizhang also repeated it, and Xuanyuan Shengcai said: "We... Let's drink up the wine in the altar, and we are brothers from now on...!" Without further ado, he picked up the wine jar and drank it.

Da Xizhang was already too strong to drink at this time, and he faintly felt that it was inappropriate to drink like this, but seeing Xuanyuan Sheng was very proud, he could only pick up the wine jar and drink with his head up.

Putting down the wine jar, Da Xizhang was already dizzy, barely stopped, and said in a deep voice: "Changqing...Changqing...!"

He Changqing immediately came in from the door. Seeing that both Da Xizhang and Xuanyuan Shengcai were drunk, Da Xizhang was even more reeling, so he rushed to help him.

"Changqing, I... I'm drunk, order... pass the order, everyone abide by their posts, don't...don't be negligent...!" Da Xizhang articulated Unclear, he reluctantly said with the last sliver of clarity: "You...you inspect the places yourself, if...if someone neglects their duties, severely...severely punish... ..!”

He Changqing said: "Don't worry, General, I will understand. General, you are already drunk, and I will help you to rest...!"

"Go away...!" Xuanyuan Shengcai pushed He Changqing away and supported Da Xizhang, "You...you and I will become brothers, from now on... You are my elder brother, the elder brother is going...to rest, and of course the younger brother...the younger brother will help...!" Looking confused, he barely opened his eyes, looking left and right After looking at it, he asked, "Where is this...where is this place? Where is my elder brother... elder brother resting? You...you lead the way...!"

He Changqing hesitated for a while, and finally said respectfully: "Young General, you are also drunk, how about...!"

"Stop talking nonsense!" Xuanyuan Sheng said angrily through his drunkenness, "Don't you still lead the way?"

He Changqing had no choice but to lead the way. Xuanyuan Shengcai and Da Xizhang supported each other and went out. When they walked, they staggered. Da Xizhang was already dizzy after drinking the last half jar of wine. Shen Chen, with half of his body leaning on Xuanyuan Shengcai, Xuanyuan Shengcai supported him with one hand, and put the other hand on the wall, and swayed forward. Fortunately, Da Xizhang's room was not far away. That is to say, he arrived at Da Xizhang's residence.

There were two guards in front of Da Xizhang's gate. He Changqing stepped forward to open the door, and Xuanyuan Sheng helped Da Xizhang into the room. When he reached the side of the bed, he let go of his hands. Da Xizhang had already collapsed on the bed, and Xuanyuan Sheng supported him. He sat down on a chair beside him, leaned against the chair, and couldn't keep his eyes open.

He Changqing approached and said in a low voice: "Major General, do you want to help you to rest?"

Xuanyuan Sheng just waved his hands and said: "You...you step back, I...I will rest here...I have become brothers with my elder brother, I feel very... ...It's a pleasure to be here with him...!"

He Changqing glanced at Da Xizhang, who was unconscious, and frowned, before Xuanyuan Sheng raised his hand and said, "I...I want to rest, you...you can step back... ...!"

He Changqing hesitated for a moment, but in the end he had no choice but to retreat, and closed the door smoothly.

After leaving the door, He Changqing whispered to the two soldiers guarding the door: "Stay here and don't let anyone get close."

He Changqing inspected several important places in the pass to make sure that everything was safe, and then reached the critical point. Xigu Pass was strictly guarded day and night, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.

Above the juncture, there will be fire frames at intervals. The firelight in the night is like falling stars. They are brighter than the stars, but they never flicker, but sometimes they swell and stretch, and sometimes they degenerate and gloomy.

There are many defenders at the critical moment, but they are as silent as the rocks under their feet.

"He Pianjiang, why do you look unhappy?" Not far away, Guan Lei, a patrol officer, saw He Changqing, approached him, and said with a smile, "Could it be that the general didn't ask you to drink, so you're in a bad mood?"

He Changqing walked to the edge of the wall and said, "The general is drunk!"

"Drunk?" Guan Lei was taken aback, then sighed: "The general hasn't been drunk for a long time...!"

"Xuanyuan Shengcai sworn brothers with the general, both of them were drunk." He Changqing said, "I'm afraid the general won't be able to wake up until dawn...!"

"Sworn brothers?" Guan Lei was a little surprised: "Xuanyuan Sheng just became brothers with the general? This... this is rare, people in the Xuanyuan family have their eyes above the top, such a request, the general's temperament He would never bring it up on his own initiative, how could Xuanyuan Sheng have such an idea?"

"How can we know what he thinks in his heart." He Changqing looked solemn.

Guan Lei sized up He Changqing, and said softly, "Old He, do you have something on your mind? Why are you so unhappy? Could it be because of Xuanyuan Sheng?"

"I just think it's a bit weird." He Changqing said softly.

Guan Lei put one hand on He Changqing's shoulder and said, "Don't think too much, are you still doubting Xuanyuan Shengcai? Old He, I think you think too much on weekdays, and now you have to dig into the horns of everything. Xuanyuan Shengcai After a big loss in Jiazhou, I was in a bad mood and depressed. It is reasonable to drink alcohol to relieve my worries here. Maybe I drank too much and proposed to become brothers with the general on a whim. Speaking of which, it’s not a bad thing.” After a pause, he continued: “The Xuanyuan family is deeply rooted in the court, and the general has led the pass for so many years. With the general’s talent, he could have been repurposed and reused a long time ago... .If the Xuanyuan family can help the general in the future, the general will naturally be transferred from this place, and the future is boundless...!"

Although Xiguguan is an important military area, guarding the pass all year round is extremely boring. Da Xizhang worked hard at Xiguguan and was respected by his subordinates. It's also for Da Xizhang's injustice.

"I hope so." He Changqing sighed.

"Old He, seeing how tired you are, you should go and rest first, and leave everything to me." Guan Lei patted He Changqing on the shoulder, "It will be fine...!"

He Changqing shook his head and said, "Go and rest, the general ordered me to inspect it tonight, and I must not be negligent...!"

At this moment, a soldier rushed over, He Changqing frowned, and the soldier said: "He Pianjiang, Major General Xuanyuan is clamoring for iced bird's nest porridge...!"

"What?" Guan Lei said angrily: "It's really a son, how can there be any iced bird's nest porridge here?"

"How is the general?" He Changqing asked in a deep voice.

The soldier reported: "The general is still sleeping, and the young general Xuanyuan came out of the room. We said that there is no iced bird's nest porridge, and he also said that he wanted to find his brothers. We can't leave them alone...!"

Guan Lei sneered and said, "He's going to look for it, just let him go, he's just playing drunk, I just hope that it will be dawn soon, and send them away as soon as possible...!"
