The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 459

[Chapter 459: Parting Sorrow]

When Fang Xiu heard this, he took a deep breath, looked at Wu Yi, and slowly said one word: “Get out!”

Wu Yi got up in a hurry, trotted outside, and did not forget to turn around and said: “If I really have the chance to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, I’ll treat you to a meal before I leave!”

Fang Xiu watched him disappear around the corner of the courtyard wall, feeling like he had heard this sentence somewhere before.

It seems that in the TV series of the previous life, as long as the person who said this kind of thing has a better ending, no matter what, he will never come back.

But

no matter what, Wu Yi’s meal was eaten by Fang within a few days. Hugh is here.

On the third day after Wu Yi left Fang Mansion, the decree from the palace was conveyed to Qinjun Mansion.

Half of the Sixteenth Guards of the pro-army army was left to guard the capital, while the remaining half followed An Pingbo and went south to wipe out the Mu rebels.

It just so happened that Wu Yi was in the remaining half.

“When I make great achievements and come back, I must hold a big banquet in Chunfeng Tower and eat all the delicacies in the capital!”

In a corner of Zuihua Pavilion, Wu Yi said while pouring wine for himself. .

The five thousand taels of silver owed to Fang Xiu meant that he had not been to a restaurant for a long time.

This time, we used the salary paid in advance to treat guests to dinner at Zuihua Pavilion.

His original lofty ideal of making great achievements has turned into delicacies eaten all over the capital.

Fang Xiu looked at the drunk guy in front of him and felt a little sad for some reason.

Perhaps this is the sadness of parting that the ancients often mentioned in their poems.

Wu Yi was the first and perhaps only friend he met in this world.

Not only because they had known each other since childhood and knew each other well, but more because he felt that Wu Yi was very real.

Unlike other people, who more or less concealed themselves in front of him, or else put him in a very high position.

“I heard that there are a lot of snakes and insects in the southwest, so be careful when sleeping to avoid being bitten by any venomous snakes.”

Fang Xiu looked at Wu Yi, took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, and said, “Here There is a bottle of antidote that can cure not only hundreds of poisons, but dozens of poisons.

When the time comes, if you are bitten by some snake or insect, take one and apply it on the wound to make sure you don’t die.”

Wu Yi heard this . After saying

that, he stared straight at the small porcelain vase, grinned: “You are still thoughtful, you are the first in the provincial examination, and I will be the first in the review,

so I won’t be polite!”

After saying that, he stretched out his hand. I grabbed the small porcelain bottle.

Seeing this, Fang Xiu felt helpless and said: “It’s useless to talk about these things. When you get to the southwest, you will know that marching and fighting is not as simple as you think.

However, it is better to go south to quell the rebellion than to go north to attack the beggars.”

Anyway ,

, with Heavenly Punishment No. 1 and Heavenly Punishment No. 2, it would not be too difficult to go south to quell the rebellion.

Even with only two thousand people, the Mu rebels may not be able to break through the defense line.

What’s more, this time An Pingbo brought ten thousand elites!

“I don’t like hearing this anymore!”

Wu Yi drank two bottles of wine and became a little drunker. His eyes were red. He looked at Fang Xiu in front of him and said unconvinced: “Although the Mu family is a rebel, it turned out that They are also soldiers from our important town in the southwest. Are they not as good as those barbarians from the Qiyan tribe?”

Fang Xiu shook his head when he heard this and said very seriously: “If they are in the mountains, they can be compared, but in other places, they can’t be compared. No.”

He has never seen what the soldiers in the southwest important town are like.

But he had seen those so-called barbarians from the Qiyan tribe.

To be fair, they are far superior to the soldiers of the Sixteenth Guards of the Pro-Army, and by analogy, they are by no means weaker than the soldiers of the nine important towns.

Otherwise, the imperial court would not have been able to set up five important towns in the four northern states!

When Wu Yi heard what he said, he didn’t refute, but muttered: “That’s because they didn’t meet this general!

As long as I’m here, the rebels of the Mu family and the barbarians of the Qiyan tribe will all be defeated!”

When Fang Xiu saw this, he knew that this guy was drunk. He shook his head and did not argue with him. He just stood up and said, “You are drunk. Go back and rest for a while. We will leave Beijing tomorrow.”

Wu Yi heard this and shouted. Pulling himself together, he shook his head and said, “I’m not drunk. We’ll leave the capital tomorrow. We’ll talk about it tomorrow.

Today, you and I, brothers, won’t come back until we’re drunk!

Come on, there are a few lobsters here. I’ll peel them off.” Here you go!”

Fang Xiu was speechless when he saw this scene.

Somewhere someone treats guests to dinner with crayfish.

Moreover, after the Kyoto Prefecture and the Ministry of Finance spare no effort in publicity, the news that the red worms are actually crayfish, taste like river shrimps and are edible has spread throughout the Gyeongsang Province.

The price of lobsters has naturally dropped.

Even at Chunfenglou, which is famous for its delicious lobsters, a plate of lobsters now costs only one tael of silver, the same price as a cup of drunkenness.

Fang Xiu pushed away the crayfish that Wu Yi handed over, looked at Wu Yi who was already drunk, and asked with some worry: “Do you still remember what I told you before about asking you to help?”

“Remember, remember. Isn’t it just when we were passing through Jiangnan Road, we arrived at that Gusu City?”

“Just remember, if you want to drink, just drink alone.

The old man left Beijing one day earlier than you. After drinking with you, I have to see him off.”

Fang Xiu said this, stood up, and looked over The boy next to him said, “Wu Mansion, you should know each other, right?” “

Master

, we know each other. Don’t worry. After Mr. Wu has finished his wine, some of the young men will take Mr. Wu back to his home.”

The young master is a good friend of the young master, and the Wu Mansion is also a famous residence in the capital, so it is natural for the servants in Zuihua Pavilion to know him.

“Yes.”

Fang Xiu nodded after hearing this, then turned and left Zuihua Pavilion.

Wu Yi caught up with him before he took a few steps.

“You, you just left me in Zuihua Pavilion?”

Wu Yi looked at Fang Xiu and said angrily.

Fang Xiu glanced at him and replied: “A general who is about to make great achievements, is it possible that he is still afraid of being harmed?” When

the cold wind outside blew, Wu Yi’s drunkenness was over, and his head was much clearer.

At this moment, when he heard this, he said unwillingly: “Making achievements is on the battlefield, not in a restaurant!”

Fang Xiu shook his head when he saw this, and was too lazy to argue with him on the day he left Beijing. .

“You want to go back to the mansion?”

“Otherwise?”

“I’ll go with you.”

When Fang Xiu heard this, he stopped and looked at Wu Yi, a little speechless: “If you don’t go back to the Wu mansion, why are you going back to the Fang mansion with me?” “

Wu Yi said matter-of-factly: “My father left Beijing two days ago, and my mother is still in Qingzhou and has not returned to Beijing at all. What’s the point of going back home alone

? Fang Mansion, follow the general directly out of the city. “

The general here naturally refers to Dingyuan General Jun Rui, that is, An Pingbo.

Fang Xiu thought for a while.

There was no problem, so he nodded and said, “It’s up to you.”
