years later...
Guiyang, Wanjian Tower.
Wanjian Tower, whose real name is Eight Immortals Tower. In the early years, Ye Xiaotian once entertained An Nantian, the son of An’s family, and Mr. Wang, the governor of Guizhou. He was besieged by soldiers sent by Cao’s family in Shiqian, shooting random arrows. Since his reputation became more famous, he changed his name to Wanjian Tower. Yes, it has been passed down to this day, and it has become a place with extremely cultural connotations in Guiyang City.
It was still a restaurant on the third floor, and there were a lot of guests in the restaurant, all talking and talking, but the most talked about was the current war.
This year, Annan Wu Decheng's military governor invaded our border, Yunnan's commander-in-chief Mu Rui sent troops, and Guizhou also dispatched troops to help in the battle.
People at one table talked about the war, and people at that table listened to it interestingly, and would interject from time to time. There is a man and a woman by the window. The man looks like he is only in his thirties, with clear eyebrows, and looks quite majestic.
The woman is slightly younger than him, a mature and beautiful woman, just about the age of a peach. That beautiful face, every frown and smile is full of infinite amorous feelings, from time to time someone will sneak a glance at her.
At this time, someone at the next table was talking about the war in Yunnan: "Grandpa Mu is naturally powerful. The Shizhen Yunnan, Annan people invaded our Ming border, that is to invade his old man's territory, how can he let it go? However, we in Guizhou, but There are also heroes!"
He wiped the wine stains from his mouth: "We Tianwang Ye sent Hua Yunfei, the chief of troops and horses, to lead 20,000 troops to Yunnan to help in the war. General Hua is powerful, do you know? I heard that Annan monkey , was beaten up and down by General Hua!"
There was a burst of laughter in the restaurant, and the middle-aged man with sword-browed star-eyed and graceful manner sitting by the window smiled slightly, and slowly sipped his wine. The beautiful woman on the opposite side cast an interesting look at him.
At this time, another human said: "Speaking of the war in Yunnan, by the way, have you heard about the beheading of Chen Fantai's son?"
Immediately, a person at the next table said: "Of course I heard that this son of the Chen Fantai family took care of the supplies and rice grain business for my soldiers and horses from Guizhou to fight in Yunnan. Originally, there is enough oil and water here. He made money, but he was not greedy enough. The medicinal materials he purchased were false, and the rice grains he transported were shoddy. When some rice bags were opened, they were either moldy or chaff. Master Huo enforced the law impartially, so he was beheaded!"
The previous man said: "Hey! Why do you think he is so bold? Because he is the son of Chen Fantai's family. Huo Nietai is half a rank lower than the chief envoy, and the two are colleagues. Do you think Huo Nietai is so brave?" Don't give Chen Fan face, but have to commit a capital crime?"
Immediately, someone said: "What's the matter, isn't Huo Nietai ruthless and selfless? Is there any way here?"
The man before said triumphantly: "That's natural! To tell you the truth, my sister is the sixth lady of the governor's yamen, Mr. Hua Qingfeng, Xinna, Mr. Hua is the number one confidant of Mr. Fuyuan, so I know Such cryptic news..."
He showed off for a while, catching everyone's appetite, and then said: "Chen Fantai is such an only son, are you willing to let him die? I heard that Chen Fantai took a large sum of money to beg Huo Jietai for mercy! "
There was a commotion among the crowd, and the man said: "Think about it, what status is Chen Fantai, how can Huo Jietai give him this favor? Besides, there is still a lot of money to be made. So, Huo Jietai came up with an idea, Tell Chen Fantai to find a family member who will die for him, and take care of all this matter, and he will operate here, and Chen Yanei will escape this catastrophe!"
This guy seems to have been drinking a lot, otherwise, how could he dare to speak out about such a secret matter related to the top officials of the court in the province. At this time, the upstairs was completely silent, and everyone listened with pricked ears, even the couple by the window were attracted by him.
The man was even more proud, and raised his voice: "You guys forgot, whose soldier we sent from Guizhou to Yunnan to fight? It was Ye Tianwang's soldier! The medicinal materials are fake, and the wounded soldiers who could be saved are dying. Rice noodles are bad, soldiers can’t even eat enough, can they win battles?”
He looked at the crowd with a majestic appearance, like a storyteller, and slapped the table hard: "Ye Tianwang loves his subordinates the most. Can he seek justice for his subordinates in this matter? Ye Tianwang sent a guard to Huo Standard sent a sentence, just one sentence: the soldiers in front, don't die in vain! Mr. Chen, you must pay with your life!"
"Hey! Just this one sentence, Mr. Chen, no one can save him!"
He took a sip of wine and another mouthful of food, and there was a lot of discussion in the restaurant. Someone asked: "Huo Jietai listened to Ye Tianwang's words? Then Chen Fantai is such an only son, how can he sit idly by?" reason?"
He rolled his eyes when he heard this, and said, "You're asking, here is the meat!" He drank the wine in one gulp, and said enthusiastically, "Of course Chen Fantai wants to save you, don't you know? For the life of his son, Chen Fantai knelt down to Huo Nietai!"
There was a "boom" in the restaurant, and the commotion broke out again. His voice also raised a bit: "For the sake of his son's life, Chen Fantai knelt down to an official who was half a rank lower than him! What happened, guess, guess!"
The drinkers couldn't hold back anymore, they all said in a hurry: "My dear man, don't be so secretive. Tell me quickly, what's the result?"
The man chuckled, lifted the jug and shook it, but he drank it all. Someone next to him couldn't wait, and shouted: "Xiaoer, serve this man a jug of good wine, and I will pay for it!"
The man suddenly smiled, and said: "The result? Of course, the result is that Mr. Chen's family is still executed. You all know this. But what you don't know is what Huo Nietai said to Chen Fantai!"
He took a breath, put on a sad face, arched his hands and said: "Master Fantai, I'm so sorry! You knelt down for your son, as long as you can raise your hand, Huo dare not raise your hand? Huo There's nothing I can do about it, that's Ye Tianwang! Who can have more face than him!'"
At the table by the window, the beautiful woman made a funny face at the man across from her, and she was a bit naughty like a girl: "Hee hee, Tianwang Ye, what a face, what a great prestige!" The middle-aged man opposite stared. Glancing at her, the beautiful woman stuck out her tongue deftly.
The restaurant suddenly became lively, and everyone was chattering and discussing.
For a while, the topic shifted from the war in Yunnan to Ye Xiaotian, the son of Yelang, who is now the most popular in Guizhou. Xiaomin always likes to gossip about famous people, which is also a fun after dinner.
At this time, someone said: "If you want to talk about Ye Tianwang, that's really great. I heard that not long ago, Ye Tianwang passed by the Chong'an Department, and the chief of the Chong'an Department greeted Ye Tianwang thirty miles away. Zhang Zhang, the chief of the Chong'an Department, has a family. For the twin daughters, they are all charming and beautiful!"
"Ye Tianwang arrived at Zhang's house, and it happened that the twin daughters of Chief Zhang came back from offering incense. Ye Tianwang just took a second look, and Zhang Zhang became paranoid, thinking that Ye Tianwang fell in love with his daughter, so he had to bear the pain My daughter gave Ye Tianwang to be a little star!"
Someone nearby asked strangely: "Why is it the second daughter, not the eldest daughter?"
