Luzhou drunken immortal upstairs, Zhu Shiyong feasted to welcome the distinguished guests from the capital, Zuixian Lou was originally unknown in Luzhou, of course, Luzhou basically has no good restaurant except for Hefeng Lou, but the business of this drunken immortal building has always been good, because its location is very good.

Luzhou North City is the place where fireworks gather, the drunken fairy building is impartial and just located in the seven or eight Qinglou Song Workshop, on weekdays, prostitutes, *, turtle slaves, and bustards usher in who comes to cook and cook vegetables, most of them are in the restaurant to call some wine and food, one is convenient, and the other is to free up more time to make money; Therefore, the business of Zuixian Building is very good, and the price is ridiculously high.

The two hundred horse troops of the Beijing Guards Department filled all the platforms upstairs and downstairs of the Zuixian Building, and the entire Zuixian Building was wrapped up by Zhu Shiyong.

People who know the inside story naturally don't think so, because the shopkeeper of this restaurant is surnamed Liu, and the owner is also surnamed Liu, who is the vice president of the Luzhou Chamber of Commerce, known as 'Xiao Zhuge '.

Zhu Shiyong warmly invited, and Long Zhen, who had been mixed in the officialdom for a long time, was half-pushed, and the soldiers did not mention the banquet themselves, and Long Zhen, Zhao and Fang were all invited to a private room on the third floor to dine alone.

The small charcoal stove in the private room is burning, the inside is warm, the snow-white tablecloth is spread, the dishes on the table are all on golden plates, and there are already a few people standing tall and low at the table, all of whom greet Long Zhen with a smile.

Long Zhen He has never enjoyed such treatment, he grabbed it casually in the capital, a lot of official positions are bigger than him, and he can't afford to mess with the masters, except in front of the subordinates of the Guards Division, Long Zhen has never been so valued, no wonder the gang of people in Beijing ran to the states and counties outside the capital at the first opportunity, and the feelings of the Beijing officials were three points bigger, and they had a bit of majesty in the imperial capital at the feet of the Son of Heaven.

Zhu Shiyong smiled and said to Long Zhen, who was a little dazed: "Commander Long, both of you are headed, please, please." ”

Long Zhen said: "Lord Zhu, how dare you be so expensive?" ”

Zhu Shiyong smiled and said: "Commander Long is polite, the mountains and wilderness are not as good as the capital, some home-cooked dishes, for Commander Long, the two heads and the brothers, please take a seat." ”

Long Zhen arched his hand and said: "In this way, brother is welcome." ”

Zhu Shiyong said: "It's polite to see the outside, come and come, and introduce you to a few good friends, all of whom are famous people on the ground in Luzhou." ”

After that, President Tang, Liu, and Huang of the Chamber of Commerce introduced Long Zhen one by one, and several people finally stopped and sat down after a long time of looking up, and the maid poured wine, Zhu Shiyong raised his glass and said with a smile: "Today, Commander Long is coming, come to my Luzhou Mansion on business, this is the glory of my Luzhou, this cup of wine wishes Commander Long to succeed and run smoothly." ”

Everyone raised their glasses to echo, Long Zhen laughed, and raised his glass; President Tang took matters into his own hands and diligently prepared the dishes, leaving the two handmaidens who were waiting on the side with nothing to do.

There are more than 20 dishes on the table, all exquisite, where is what home-cooked side dish Zhu Shiyong said in his mouth, President Tang will spread the dishes, and introduce it to Long Zhen and others: "Commander Long, how about tasting this dish, this dish is called 'Pearl in the Palm'"

Long Zhen sandwiched his mouth, and almost swallowed his tongue in the deliciousness, and praised again and again: "Good name, good taste, this dish has taken a lot of effort." ”

Vice President Liu is very good at it, and said with a smile: "It's also very simple, dip the duck paw in some flour, put the small balls squeezed with shrimp mash on it, smooth it with a ruler, and then press the quail eggs on the middle of the top, stick the minced ham and coriander on both sides, put it on the plate, and steam it into the upper drawer to become this 'palm pearl'." ”

Long Zhen was dazed when he heard it, although he was a person from the big dock in the capital, but in the final analysis, he was only from Qiu Ba, and he didn't understand these exquisite things for enjoyment.

"It's good, it's not bad, it's almost the same as the dishes in the restaurants in the capital, and the taste is similar, which is rare." Long Zhen nodded as he ate, trying his best to hide his ignorance and shallowness.

"This is stewed horseshoe turtle, this dish is honey. Sauce anchovy shrimp, this is stewed whitebait, this is chestnut pot grouse, this is ......" Tang Jiyuan's introduction was stacked, Long Zhen and the two of them mechanically followed his introduction with chopsticks, and they had the same fork and stuffed it into their mouths, and they had no time to speak.

Zhu Shiyong and several presidents glanced at each other, and they all saw a trace of disdain in each other's eyes, and the officers and soldiers of the Guards Division were just dirt buns.

After eating more than a dozen mouthfuls of food, Long Zhen felt a little out of shape at this time, and said vaguely with a bite in his mouth: "You guys eat too, don't just watch a few of us eat, we didn't eat much along the way, we were all a little rude." ”

Zhu Shiyong hurriedly smiled: "It's okay, it's okay, a few adults have worked hard, they should have eaten more, a few presidents, let's also accompany the adults to eat, otherwise wouldn't we lose the gift of hospitality?" ”

Everyone echoed in unison, and they picked up the dishes and put them in their mouths to chew carefully, compared to the eating appearance of Zhu Shiyong, Tang Jiyuan and others, Long Zhen and the two of them were too terrifying, the three of them could pick up a bunch of vegetables from the mountain and stuff them into their mouths with one chopstick, and the mouth had not been chewed and swallowed, and their eyes were already on the next target, and then the eyes were in their hands, and the chopsticks followed; Several times, Fang Dutou and Zhao Dutou's chopsticks collided in the air, making a clicking sound, and they used this dining table as a battlefield and practiced chopsticks as a sword.

After some sweeping, Long Zhen and the others finally put down their chopsticks to catch their breath, Zhu Shiyong saw the needle and hurriedly picked up the wine glass to toast, after a few rounds of back and forth, Long Zhen and the others gradually became slightly drunk.

"Commander Long, is Lu Xiang's body okay?" Zhu Shiyong said with a smile.

"Okay, okay, I can eat and sleep." Long Zhen wiped his mouth and said in his heart: I want to know how Lu Xiang's body is, but where will Lu Xiang tell me.

"I really envy the commander, I can meet these important ministers of the court and the pillars of the country every day in the capital, and I am in the field, although I have admiration, I can only wish good health."

"It's good to have a heart, and after returning to Beijing, I will convey the prefect's admiration on my behalf." Long Zhen was not ashamed.

"That's thanks to Commander Long, Commander Long came to my Luzhou on business, if there is anything that needs my Zhu someone's service, even if you open your mouth, if you don't like the food and accommodation, several presidents have inns and other courtyards at home, and you can also go to them to relax."

Long Zhen hiccuped and laughed: "Don't dare to do that, how can you harass you, and besides, maybe you won't stay long before you leave for Yangzhou Mansion, don't you dare to bother too much." ”

"Oh? Are you in such a hurry to leave? It's really hard for the commander. ”

"There's no way, I'm in the sea of Huan, and I can't help myself." Long Zhen came up with a sentence of Wen Zou Zou's words.

"I can't help myself in the sea of Huan, I say that you and I are suffering, and I should have a drink for this sentence." Zhu Shiyong smiled and raised his glass, and Long Zhen also raised his glass and drank dry.

"It's also very close to our Luzhou to Yangzhou, and the commander of the dragon is with the horse army, and it can be reached in three days and three nights at most, so bear with it." Zhu Shiyong cautiously listened to the news little by little.

"Bullshit, we won't be able to get there for more than ten days, and those who sleep in the open will suffer again." Fang Dutou, who was biting the grouse leg in his mouth, pulled out a chicken shreds from between his teeth with his big oily hand and scolded.

Long Zhen scolded: "Shut up, there are so many complaints, this is an errand, understand?" ”

Fang Dutou wanted to talk back, Zhao Dutou hit his leg with a kick below, Fang Dutou stopped talking, and continued to deal with his grouse leg; On such an occasion, not giving Long Zhen face is looking for boredom, scolding and scolding on weekdays, Long Zhen naturally doesn't care if he wants to be a good person, but if he doesn't give him steps in front of outsiders, it is more than enough for Long Zhen to rectify his little capital.

Zhu Shiyong saw that Long Zhen's tone was still relatively strict, so he looked at the envoy of the Tang Era, and the Tang Era understood, got up and raised his glass and said: "Commander Long, the two of them are working hard for the imperial court, it is really respectable and admirable, the villain respects three of them for a glass, if the three of them don't dislike it, how about living in my courtyard tonight?" ”

Long Zhen smiled: "Don't you dare to be, there are arrangements in the military post, how can you bother." ”

Tang Jiyuan said: "To put it mildly, how to live in the post station, there is nothing else in my courtyard, only the same, neat and elegant, if the adults sit down and work, it is also a good place." ”

Long Zhen's tongue was a little big, and he was poured wine by several people in a row, although the amount of wine was not small, but he couldn't stand it, and waved his hand and said: "Don't mention it, how can you have time to sit in the place and enjoy leisure, the grain envoy surnamed Su sent an errand, these days to hire a large number of ox carts and mule carts in Luzhou to transport grain, hundreds of carts, where to get it, my head ...... The heads are all big. ”

Zhu Shiyong and the people of the Chamber of Commerce were overjoyed: they finally showed their mouths, the special envoy who transported grain, surnamed Su, and hundreds of carts, this information was already very revealing.

Tang Jiyuan said quietly: "Yes, the commander makes it hard for the lord, and there is no way to do it if the official has a life, and besides, he is also on an errand for the imperial court, so the envoy will not erase your credit." ”

"What kind of bird envoy, the kid who hasn't dried up, I don't know whose ditch I licked, and the teenage boy also came to point fingers at us, speaking of credit, I'm afraid it's all lost this time, and even our salary is greedy, is there any hope for the?" Zhao Dutou, who had eaten all the grouse legs, couldn't help but scold.

"Are you in your teens? Became an envoy in his teens? To be honest, I don't believe it, I'm afraid I'm drunk. Tang Jiyuan said with a smile.

"You're just drunk, speaking of which, this guy is still from your Luzhou Mansion, I don't know you guys, this kid's name is Su Jin." Zhao Dutou shouted.

Long Zhen felt that it was inappropriate, and it was too late to stop him, and Zhao Dutou had already said his name.

Zhu Shiyong, Tang Jiyuan and the others were shocked, and their hearts jumped, it was actually him! This kid is so capable, didn't he say that he went to study in Yingtianfu? How did you get mixed into the position of the envoy, you have some skills.

Zhu Shiyong hated it, his precious son didn't mention anything except for asking for money when he came to the house a few days ago, not to mention anything else, Su Jin should always mention the matter of leaving Yingtianfu to go to the capital, this idiot, except for eating, drinking and playing, he can't do anything, he is really a bad son, and he takes his explanation as the wind in his ears.
