Chapter 500: The Birth (2)

"Mr. Yan, I haven't seen you for many days, so I'm healthy?" Xu Wen bowed his hand and smiled aloud.

"If General Xu is worried about it, he is still healthy!" Yan Keqiu stopped and returned the favor. Since he joined Yang Wo's mansion, he has rarely dated Xu Wen. Even Zhu Yongzong, who stayed in the mansion as Xu Wen's adopted son, had never visited him. After all, he understood that after Yang Wo ascended the throne, he did not trust Xu Wen and Zhang Hao and other old ministers left by Yang Xingmi. If he wanted to use Yang Wo's power to avenge Lu Fang, he had to keep a distance from Xu Wen and others.

Xu Wen smiled and said, "Three days later, Zhigao's birthday. The child before coming to the palace asked me to bring a message. He missed him very much. If he had time, could he come to the palace for a trip to the palace that day?" The "Zhigao" mentioned by Xu Wen was Zhu Yongzong, the orphan of the Zhu family brought to the palace by Yan Keqiu. Xu Wen took him as his adopted son and named him Xu Zhigao.

Yan Keqiu was slightly surprised, and a warm feeling could not help but slipped through his heart. Since all his tribe members died and decided to disfigure and revenge, he had been a human being for two lives. Xu Zhigao, the orphan of the Zhu family, can be said to be the only connection between him and the graceful and luxurious family in the past. Only when he thinks of this child, Yan Keqiu felt that there was something soft in his heart besides hatred and conspiracy. Thinking of this, a smile appeared on his scar face: "I dare not, Xu will bother him three days later."

Zhang Hao looked strangely from the side. When Yan Keqiu walked away, he asked, "Brother Xu, you are so good at dealing with that adopted son. Don't you have several parents or children?"

A wry smile appeared on Xu Wen's face: "It's so shameful to say that Brother Zhang, you don't know that those little beasts in my family are not very good, especially Zhixun, who acts absurdly and is born to cause trouble. However, Zhigao respects his elders, is quick and studious, and will become great in the future!"

Zhang Hao looked disapproving: "You can't say that. No matter how bad Zhixun is, he is still a seed of your Lao Xu. No matter how good that 'Zhigao' is, it is a seed of others. How can this be compared? In my opinion, Zhixun is just a little naughty. Anyone who has driven the car knows that strong livestock often cannot pull the car at the beginning, but if they are tamed, they are a good helper. Lao Xu, don't worry too much."

"I hope it's as Brother Zhang said!" Xu Wen couldn't help but smile. After all, there is someone in the world who doesn't want their parents and children to be more powerful than adopted children?

In the back hall of the King of Wu's Mansion, at the first update, there were two rows of candles as thick as arms on the hall, which shone the lobby like daytime. Yang Wo's clothes were half-clear, his eyes were blurred, and he was already drunk with a 70-80-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-eight-

A sudden woman's scream interrupted the crazi drink. It turned out that a person on the right had drunk too much, and he actually reached out to touch the buttocks of the maid who poured him wine. The maid jumped aside in fear. The wine pot in her hand naturally couldn't grab it steadily and hit the man's head, making her head wet, and I don't know if it was blood or wine.

The man had already drunk 70% or eighty-eight drinks, so he dared to tease the maid in the palace. However, when the wine pot was smashed, he was sobered up. He quickly threw himself to the ground and called out "Damn" to apologize to Yang Wo, who was above. Yang Wo didn't care, waved his hand and asked the man to get up, pardoned the man's guilt of rudeness, and gave him the maid he had just teased. Not only that, he also asked everyone to choose one of the maids in the hall to give him a reward. Everyone was immediately overjoyed and praised him with a chant. So the king and his ministers shouted and drank wildly, and they didn't know where tonight.

"King!" With a burst of rapid footsteps, Fan Si appeared at the door of the back hall, his pale face was full of worries and anger. Obviously, he did not agree with what was happening in front of him.

"Fan Qing!" Yang Wo shouted in surprise, trying his best to stand up, but he felt that his hands and feet were not too big, and the large amount of mellow wine he had just drunk was like strong glue, sticking him firmly to the ground.

"Come here, pour a cup for Fan Qing, and our monarch and ministers will have fun together tonight!"

Fan Si took the fine wine presented by the maid, took a sip and handed the glass back to the maid, bowed and said, "King, it's already the third day, let's just have this banquet!"

Yang Wo was already drunk, and Fan Sicong's words seemed to be coming from a faraway place. He just looked at Fan Sicong with a strange look, but he didn't answer for a while. Seeing Yang Wo like this, Fan Sicong couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, turned around and ordered the maids beside him to send Yang Wo back to the bedroom, and asked the servants to send the rest to the guest room to rest. After everyone left, he looked at the messy hall and looked at the candles that had been burned halfway, and couldn't help but sigh deeply.

Three days later, there was a banquet in the side hall of Xu Wen’s mansion. There were only Xu Wen, Yan Keqiu and Xu Zhigao. After three rounds of wine, Xu Wen smiled and said, “Zhigao, you have all the gifts from your teacher. I don’t respect Mr. Yan!”

Since Xu Zhigao came to Detang, his eyes were staring at Yan Keqiu tightly. He didn't know how many words he had in his heart wanted to tell him, but there was a third party present, so many things were hard to say. Hearing Xu Wen's order, he immediately stood up, poured his drink, and walked in front of Yan Keqiu, bowed a long time, and presented his hands: "Sir and I are the kindness of recreation. Please drink this cup for a long time to make your birthday!"

Yan Keqiu's eyes were also rippled in Gu Jing Wubo's eyes. The delicate child back then had grown into a teenager and his voice became much thicker. He suddenly remembered his own child who had died. If it weren't for the disaster of extermination, he would probably be as big as the person in front of him. Thinking of this, Yan Keqiu couldn't help but feel a sharp pain in his heart, as if he was storming a knife.

Xu Wen saw Yan Keqiu staring at Xu Zhigao with his eyes full of pity. He forgot to receive the wine glass for a moment. He couldn't help but think in his stomach, could Zhigao be Yan Keqiu's biological flesh and blood? Otherwise, how could his eyes be so strange? But if these two were father-son relationships, why did Yan Keqiu not come to visit him once in the past few years? And who was assassinated by this person that time? There must be a big secret behind him, so he should be careful. Thinking of this, Xu Wen saw that Yan Keqiu was still like a wandering soul outside the sky, so he had to whisper: "Mr. Yan! Mr. Yan!"

Yan Keqiu came to his senses and quickly took the wine glass, drank it all, and said with a smile: "I just thought about something and got distracted. Mr. Xu laughed!"

"It's okay, it's okay. Mr. Yan is now a strong minister of the king. Naturally, he is busy with affairs, so he is naturally considerate!" Xu Wen's face was filled with smiles, but his eyes were staring at Yan Keqiu, trying to see something from his ugly face covered with scars.

"Mr. Xu is joking. The counselor in the King's Mansion is like rain. I am a half-dead person. I am just a half-dead person. I can't say anything about my strength." Yan Keqian thanked. What disappointed Xu Wen on the side was that he never found anything he needed from the other party's face. Thinking of this, Xu Wen frowned and said, "What did those guys in the kitchen do? Why haven't the dishes been delivered for so long? Could it be that they fell asleep? Zhigao, go and urge and get some hot water to warm the wine."

"Yes, father!" Xu Zhigao responded, stepped back to the door in small steps, and then turned around and left. Xu Wen sent Xu Zhigao away, turned his head, lowered his voice and asked Yan Ke, "There is something that has been unsolvable for a certain family. Can Mr. Yan solve my doubts?"

Yan Keqiu knew that the meat of the show tonight was coming, so he put down the chopsticks in his hand and said, "Mr. Xu, please speak, I will be grateful to Mr. Xu, but if you know anything, you will definitely tell everything you know and say everything."

Xu Wen reached out and pointed to the south, and asked in a low voice: "What a family wants to ask is, is there any turning point in the war with Zhenhai Army this time?"

The long scar on Yan Keqiu's cheek twitched, like a caught earthworm. Xu Wen was satisfied to find that the other party's expression had been unpredictable and finally had a slight fluctuation, just like there was a shark swimming under it. Although there was no big sign, the experienced fisherman could already feel the signs of danger from it.

"Why did Mr. Xu say this? Although our army has suffered a small setback, the fundamental land is still there. The land in Huainan still has less than 100,000 armors, which is twice as good as the Lu bandits. As long as our army is united, the Lu bandits will definitely be awarded the head one day!" Yan Keqiu's tone was excited, which was somewhat similar to the counselors in the court.

Xu Wen waved his hand, as if he pushed away the other party's anger: "Mr. Yan's words are reasonable. If our army is united, it will indeed be better than Lu Fang." Xu Wen particularly emphasized the four words "unity" and looked at Yan Keqiu's face before continuing: "But can Huainan be united in this situation? To be honest, if Yang Wo did not suspect Wang Xuanzhou, the situation would not be corrupt until now. If this continues, Lu Fang will sooner or later score troops to rescue Huizhou. At that time, the situation will become beneficial to us! Under that situation, our army cannot be united in one's heart. Can it still be done now?"

Hearing Xu Wen's rebuttal like a cannon, Yan Keqiu was silent for a while and finally whispered: "The king is still young, so he made such a mistake. However, Lu Thief is like a snake in the Bashan Mountain, greedy. If he does not clean up the mess, he will be under the three states of Xuan, Run, Chang, and Guangling. I think all the generals should be able to see this, even in order to eliminate foreign enemies, they can unite."
