Chapter seven hundred and thirteen old friends(1/3)
...
"Master, Master, why are you here? You are so anxious to find me!" The old man was caught in a trance. He calmed down and then saw that it was his coachman. He actually left half of the city in a trance.
The groom was also anxious and was ordered by the second lady to take the master to Shouchun, but who would have thought that the master would be separated? He had pointed the way for the master. If he hadn't been lucky enough to find the master, he would have been done.
Under the leadership of the groom, the old man came to the door of a mansion in the inner city of Shouchun. The name of this mansion was Zhou Mansion.
"Mr. Qiao!" Zhou Yu was really in the mansion and saw the old man clasping his fists at the old man.
But the old man did not give a gift, which made Zhou Yu a little confused. It shouldn't be. Gong Qiao is a person who treats etiquette as life, or this person does not value interests but does not value official positions, but is very concerned about reputation. Even if he is an acquaintance, he must come with him Qiao Gong in a regular manner. However, the old man was silent all the time, just when Zhou Yu was about to ask questions, the old man spoke up.
"Gongjin, do you think there will be exactly the same people in this world?" the old man asked Zhou Yu.
"A exact same person?" Zhou Yu was very confused.
"Yeah, I just look very similar, and even my behavior is the same." The old man looked at Zhou Yu and said.
"Twins ≤⊙,ww★w.?" Zhou Yu was a little confused. It shouldn't be. If you talk about twins, then there are differences, such as the behavior and personality are also different.
"Mr. Qiao, what did you see today?" Zhou Yu asked in confusion. "There are no leaves in this world!"
"Yes, how could there be the same leaves in this world? She has already died long ago. Forget it. I don't want to!" The old man shook his head and threw away the distracting thoughts in his mind. The old man then came back to his senses. "Where is Gongjin, where is Yue'er?" The old man cared about his other daughter.
"Yue'er is not in the mansion!" Zhou Yu said to the old man.
"Not in the office?" The old man looked at Zhou Yu in confusion.
"Yeah, he is with the old lady in his brother's mansion!" Zhou Yu said to the old man. The reason why the old man came to Shouchun, Yangzhou this time was because Mrs. Wu was about to have a birthday. With the relationship between the Qiao family and the Sun family, the old man had to participate. The old man also adopted Qiao Yue as his adopted daughter.
"Yeah!" the old man nodded.
"Mr. Qiao, you are tired from the road, so let's go and rest first!" Zhou Yu said to Mr. Qiao.
"It's a blessing to Gongjin!" Qiao Gong nodded and refused. He left with the butler. Zhou Yu looked at the old man's back, "Yue'er, brothers can only help you do this, and whether you succeed depends on the day after tomorrow."
...
Liu Mang was almost in a daze these days. Not only was the Yangzhou exam, but there was another thing, that is, Mrs. Wu, Liu Mang's mother-in-law, was about to celebrate her birthday, so Liu Mang had to prepare in advance. He was the King of Shu and was being paid attention to by everyone. Some etiquette cannot be paid, even if Liu Mang doesn't want to go, Mrs. Sun in the family would spare him.
Fortunately, on the birthday of Mrs. Wu, Liu Mang, as the King of Shu, did not need to arrive at the beginning. He just needed to go over and have a meal after the false gifts were over.
"Xiang'er! Let's go!" Liu Mang could only bring a wife for the banquet. He should have been the real lady Miss Lu, but this was Mrs. Wu's banquet. Miss Lu naturally gave it to Sun Shangxiang and asked Sun Shangxiang and Liu Mang to go with her.
"Yeah!" Sun Shangxiang nodded. His husband gave him face and attended all his mother's banquet.
The Wu Hou Mansion is full of people. Today is Mrs. Wu’s birthday. Originally, with Sun Ce’s reputation and status, there were not so many people. However, Mrs. Wu has the status of the mother-in-law of His Royal Highness the King of Shu, so basically as long as he is not a rotating official, all of them are here. The entire Wu Hou Mansion, which is seven-in-seven-out house, cannot accommodate so many people.
There are dozens of tables above the mansion, and hundreds of tables of flowing tables outside.
Qiao Yue looked at the people coming and going at the door, as if she was looking for something.
"Don't worry, Yue'er, he will definitely come." Zhou Yu walked behind Qiao Yue and said to Qiao Yue.
"Yeah!" Qiao Yue nodded.
"Your Highness the King of Shu is here!" Just as she was expecting, a loud-sounding concierge over there shouted loudly.
Liu Mang's figure gradually appeared at the gate. The soldiers in front of him opened the way, and Guan Hai Zhoucang stood behind him. Liu Mang sat on Longpan and arrived at Wu Hou's mansion before falling to the palace.
This is not Liu Mang's pretentiousness, but Liu Mang is giving face to the Wu Hou Mansion. If Liu Mang comes here directly, it means that the Wu Hou Mansion is not in good condition, and even our King of Shu may be angry and dissatisfied with Wu Hou.
But in this way, soldiers lead the way and come in a dragon. This is the greatest face. This is to tell everyone that he has come down from the King of Shu and that the Wu Hou Mansion is a very close family with Liu Mang.
"I'm welcome to the King of Shu!" Before Liu Mang entered the gate, someone had already greeted him from the gate. The head was the owner of the Wu Hou Mansion, Wu Hou Sun Ce, behind him were Zhou Yu and Huang Gai, and the civil and military officials of Yangzhou were next to him. Liu Mang saw that Zhuge Villageman also came to join in the fun, but Xu Shu did not come. He had no time, and Lu Su did not come either. He was afraid that his face would scare people. Mi Zhu, the Minister of Revenue, also came. Two of them came from the six ministries, and Huang Zhong and others. It can be said that Wu Hou Sun Ce was simply glorious today.
"I have seen His Highness the King of Shu! His Highness the King of Shu is in peace!" Mrs. Wu leaned on a crutch and was about to salute Liu Mang with the help of the maid there.
Liu Mang hurried forward, "Why should my mother-in-law do this? We are a family! Today is your birthday, so I should be my mother-in-law."
"I don't dare!" Mrs. Wu said modestly to Liu Mang with great awareness.
"What's the matter not to dare? They are all family. Come on, my son-in-law Liu Mang has met my mother-in-law. Thank you for marrying the pearl in your hand to my son-in-law." Liu Mang said half-worship to the old lady.
"I'm sorry!" Sun Shangxiang next to him said to Liu Mang. Liu Mang's action made everyone's restraint disappear in an instant. Today, there is no monarch and minister, but only a son-in-law to pay his birthday to his mother-in-law.
"Get up!" Liu Mang waved his hand and shouted at the people below.
"Thank you, Your Highness, King Shu!" A group of Yangzhou civil and military officials stood up.
"Mr. Wu, Sun Ce, met Your Highness!" Sun Ce came up and clasped his fists at Liu Mang.
"My Overlord Brother. I said that today I came to the door as a son-in-law. Instead of His Highness the King of Shu, do you need me to give up the king's order?" Liu Mang said to Sun Ce with a smile.
"District, I'm down!" Sun Ce wanted to call His Highness, but Liu Mang snorted and then he called "Han Yang!"
"That's right!"
Sun Ce can be called Liu Mang, but no one else dares. Zhou Yu, Huang Gai and others also came forward to greet him with fists, and Liu Mang was also nodded.
It was Zhuge Liang's turn, but Liu Mang stopped him, "Oh, Lord Zhuge Shangshu, why are you here to attend the banquet?"
"Of course, Mr. Wu invited me!" Zhuge Liang took out the invitation and said provocatively.
"I don't remember that the Ministry of Justice is not on the rotation today." Liu Mang looked at Zhuge Liang with a smile. The six ministries only had two days off until the end of ten months, but today is not, not to mention that one ministries must have the Minister or the Secretary of the State.
"I feel uncomfortable, please give up!" Zhuge Liang lies in front of the boss Liu Mang without blinking.
"I'm not feeling well and I'm here to attend the dinner!" Liu Mang said angrily.
"Doctor Hua asked me to come out and run more and run to make it better for the body!" Zhuge Liang dragged Hua Tuo from there directly into the water. Hua Tuo was shot while lying down.
Liu Mang looked behind Zhuge Liang and asked, "Doctor Hua, what is the condition of Kong Ming? Where is his medical treatment form?"
Zhuge Liang subconsciously said, "Doctor Hua, I'll go find you today. If you are not here, I'll let you go, let you..." Zhuge Liang turned around and realized that there was Hua Tuo. Hua Tuo was busy reading the medical books that Liu Mang gave him every day, and where did he have time to attend the dinner? Zhuge Liang realized that he had been beaten. Zhuge Liang's face was very dark.
OK, this disease is fake, and even the Imperial Hospital was not even allowed to go to the Imperial Hospital. Liu Mang said that if he gets sick, the Imperial Hospital needs to issue a diagnosis to prevent some officials from pretending to be sick.
Liu Mang looked at Zhuge Liang playfully.
"My business is done!" Zhuge Liang looked at Liu Mang, and he looked like I was skipping work. Why? My business is done.
"One month, no, the salary for three months is gone!" Liu Mang also said with a smile.
"Why!" Zhuge Liang shouted. Although our Mr. Zhuge has not been married yet, this fiancée has been injected into the mansion. That is Miss Huang's family in Jingzhou. This Miss Huang's family is of high IQ and is also a tigress type. Therefore, in history, our military advisor Kong Ming has always been a wife.
This Miss Huang has kept Zhuge Liang's salary tightly, so Zhuge Liang has no extra money at all. If he knew that his salary had been deducted, Zhuge Liang would have to explain when he went back.
"No!" Liu Mang smiled at Zhuge Liang, "Just because I am your lord!" He pretended to be sick for no reason, and he should have deducted one month's salary, but Liu Mang made a big move for three months.
"You!" Seeing Zhuge Liang being defeated and Liu Mang laughed and left, even Zhou Yu next to him was gloating and patted Zhuge Liang on the shoulder, "Brother Kong Ming, do you want me to lend you money?"
"Get out!" Zhuge Liang shouted to Zhou Yu.
In the hall, the old lady's birthday party was naturally given to everyone, and Liu Mang also gave the mountain and stones, which was a metaphor for the old lady's lifespan compared to the southern mountain. Mrs. Wu was not bad at giving gold and silver. Such a rock had a unique charm.
The dinner was mostly held. Mrs. Wu was tired and went back to rest early. Sun Shangxiang also accompanied her mother. She left a group of Yangzhou civil and military officials in the hall.
"Your Highness, you are deeply honored to be able to come to the mansion to celebrate your mother's birthday. Thank you for your kindness, and respect it first!" Sun Ce said as he drank a glass of wine.
Sun Ce toasted, and Liu Mang had no choice but to drink it. If he didn't drink it, he wouldn't give him face.
"Your Highness, Sun Ce is my brother, and Old Lady Wu is like Yu's old mother. Yu also respects Your Highness." Zhou Yu also walked up and said to him first.
Liu Mang had no choice but to drink again.
"Your Highness, I, Huang Gai, used to be a retainer of the Sun family, and the old lady is Huang Gai's old mistress. Gai also thanks Your Highness for the old lady!" Another cup.
"Your Highness. You are the son-in-law of the old lady. You are also the brother-in-law of Wu Hou. You are a family with me, so I will respect you first!"
Liu Mang didn't know how much he had drunk, and even Zhuge Liang came up there, as if he wanted to revenge his salary.
After drinking, Liu Mang seemed to have withdrawn. If this continues, he will be drunk sooner or later, but it comes from there. Miss Sun's mother has already gone to bed with Mrs. Wu. The mother and daughter have to have a night chat.
Well, Liu Mang couldn't leave anymore, and I don't know how much he drank, but in the end Liu Mang was really drunk and fell down.
In a daze, Liu Mang was taken to the room on the Wu Hou's mansion, which was originally reserved for Sun Shangxiang to visit his relatives, under the guidance of the servants in Wu Hou's mansion. Liu Mang walked into the bed and fell asleep.
Early in the morning, Liu Mang was woken up. He heard the noise outside and seemed to be very intense.
"What's the situation?" Liu Mang rubbed his eyes and got up, baptized him slightly in the bronze mirror and walked out.
"Who are you and why are you in my daughter's boudoir!" This was the old man's voice, full of anger.
"You father-in-law is so ignorant. This is your daughter's boudoir, and this is obviously the room my mistress is on the Wu Hou's mansion!" = Guan Hai's voice also sounded.
"Your mistress. Are you?" The old man looked at Guan Hai and suddenly remembered something and pointed at Guan Hai and shouted loudly, "You are the guard that day?"
"Yeah? You know me, father-in-law?" Guan Hai said in confusion.
"Are you the guard of the Shu King Liu Mang?" the old man continued to ask.
"Yes!" Guan Hai nodded.
"So that is the King of Shu Liu Mang living inside?" the old man continued to ask.
"Yes, our lord got drunk last night, so he fell asleep on Mr. Wu's mansion. You father-in-law is so ignorant. This is obviously my mistress's boudoir!" Zhou Cang also spoke.
"Is this Wu Hou Mansion?" The old man was so angry that he was squirting, his face turned red
"Liu Mang, fake king, you hypocrite, come out for me. People like you are simply ruthless. How can Your Majesty decide a person like you to be the king? Scum!" The old man became more and more angry and cursed Liu Mang in such words.
"Why are so noisy?" Liu Mang finally woke up. When he saw that it was quite lively outside the door, an old man was quarreling with Zhou Cang Guan Hai. Guan Hai's face turned red. It was obvious that this was a quarrel rhythm.
And there are more and more people in the courtyard, all of whom are attracted by this sound.
