Cheng Mo chased out and sent Su Zhi to the gate, he was his father-in-law and the prime minister of the dynasty, and the etiquette had to be fulfilled.
Most of the overnight guests said goodbye and went back, there were only three or four carriages at the gate, two men in official robes, and an old man in a big-sleeved Confucian shirt, successively crossed the high threshold, saw Cheng Mo standing on the steps, and saw one person get into the carriage, and they all followed his eyes to see the carriage parked on the side of the steps.
The flathorn carriage stopped quietly beside the white jade steps, which was twice as long and half as wide as other carriages, silently showing its low-key luxury.
Only when the prime minister can sit in a carriage of this specification.
Of course, when Huo Guang never retired, the carriage was wider and longer than this one, but he was a figure who could depose the emperor, so naturally it was another matter.
A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the three of them.
Cheng Mo watched Su Zhi get into the car, and the coachman whipped up and drove away, only then did he turn around, and saw three people standing by the threshold, the two of them had strange faces, and when they saw him, they quickly changed their smiling faces and arched their hands: "Wei Wei got up early." ” It's noon, and it's still early, Cheng Mo naturally understands the meaning of the joke in their words, and bows his hand and salutes: "Why don't the three of you eat lunch in the mansion and then take a walk and have a few drinks together." ” As he spoke, he took two steps forward and took the arm of the person who laughed the most weirdly just now, this person's name is Jiang Wei, and he is now a riding general, and he eats a thousand stones.
Jiang Wei is a military general, but the world is peaceful, there is no war in the court, and he is so idle that his eggs hurt, in addition to practicing martial arts, he drinks and visits the kiln, and often sighs that the turbid wine is too light, and it is not enjoyable to drink ten catties at a time.
Cheng Mo's self-brewed wine is well-known among the noble ministers, according to Taichang Cheng Taoran, who drank it once in the Anguo Mansion, this wine is like a jade liquid, as soon as it is poured out, it is fragrant, making people reluctant to swallow it.
Jiang Wei has been greedy for a long time, and finally has a chance to drink, how can he miss the opportunity He rushed over just after the hour, under the pretext of helping, hoping to drink one more time, who doesn't know that Cheng Mo is rich, and everyone in the house is waiting, three meals at a time Sure enough, he was not disappointed, at noon, the host set up a banquet to entertain all the distinguished guests, the wine on the table was this kind of wine, he only took a sip, and he was fluttering, but he knew that the evening was the big head, and he was reluctant to drink more, only drank a jar, some were not addicted, and wanted to steal an altar to drink in the afternoon, and it was difficult to start in front of everyone.
Besides, he was a guest at the mansion, and he was not familiar with the situation in the mansion, so he stole the wine and hid it for a while, so he had to give up.
But in the evening, he had no scruples, and he drank heartily, and he did not know how many jars he drank, until he was so drunk that he was helped to the guest room to rest, and he still clung to the jar of wine.
In his sleep, he drank the remaining half of the jar of wine in his arms.
It's rare to drink such a good wine, and he will never forget it in this life.
Seeing Cheng Mo staying as a guest, he was about to move, and said to the other two: "Then we will stay" Those two people, one is Taishi Cheng Fu Yi, and the other is the great Confucian and former emperor Du Qing.
Fu Yi also drank a few more glasses because of the rare wine, but more importantly, the atmosphere at that time was so good, everyone raised their glasses, or drank freely, or toasted each other, and when he woke up this morning, he was a little annoyed, blaming himself for misconduct.
Du Qing was Emperor Zhao's teacher, and he planned to try his best to teach and assist the emperor, but he didn't expect Emperor Zhao to die young, and he was sad and refused Cheng Mo's persuasion, and did not teach the new emperor Liu Xun as the emperor's teacher again.
A few days ago, he received an invitation, thanking Cheng Mo for his kindness, so he came to the banquet, but he didn't expect many people he didn't know at the banquet to toast him, how could he refute the face of others, so he had to raise a glass and take a sip.
After sipping it one sip at a time, I was still drunk, alas, the wine was too mellow.
As a Confucian who is rich in learning, he actually got drunk at the banquet, so much so that he stayed at the host's house, and when it was spread out, he had no face to see people.
Therefore, he deliberately rubbed until this time, just estimating that the guests were almost gone.
Unexpectedly, when I turned the wide road leading to the gate, I actually met Fu Yi first, and then Jiang Wei.
Fu Yi had met him once, but Jiang Wei didn't know him at all.
But he doesn't know people, so it's hard to guarantee that people don't know him.
He couldn't wait to cover his face with his sleeves and get out of the house and get into the car as soon as possible, but he didn't expect that as soon as he arrived at the door, he happened to meet Cheng Mo to send Su Zhi out.
Su Zhi had already gotten into the car, and Cheng Mo saw him, but neither of them noticed him.
In this way, it is not easy to grab it.
Fu Yi and Jiang Wei both recognized that it was Su Zhi's carriage, with a strange look on their faces, and Du Qing was a great Confucian, so they were only a little surprised.
When Cheng Mo turned around and saluted each other, Du Qing looked like a thief, her old face was red, she was very embarrassed, and she didn't know how to speak.
Fu Yi said generously: "Wei Wei is gracious, but there is something in the house, and it is inconvenient to stay longer, so I will definitely visit the house in the future, and I will rest when I get drunk." ” It's just time to eat, and when he met the three of them, Cheng Mo said politely, not really staying guests, and said, "Okay, then make an appointment another day."
Saying that, he looked at Du Qing and asked inquiringly.
Du Qing couldn't wait to leave early, so he was willing to stay, and said like Fu Yi: "The old man has to teach a few disciples in the afternoon, and it is inconvenient to stay for a long time, so he will cook wine and discuss poetry with Wei Wei in the future." ” Before Cheng Mo could speak, Jiang Wei was already the eldest and said unhappily: "Why are you like this, it's just a meal, and then you go to class after drinking." ” Cheng Mo saw the three of them appear together, and thought that they were saying goodbye together, everyone was here to drink happy wine, these two people were leaving, how could he stay alone, with his official position, Cheng Mo would not personally accompany him to drink.
Du Qing didn't know him, and from the official robe, he recognized that this was a general.
He didn't know this person, let alone make friends, and it was taboo to have shallow romances, so he didn't speak.
Fu Yi said: "General Jiang stayed to drink the bar, and I will leave first." ” He bowed his hand to Cheng Mo and Jiang Wei, turned around and went down the steps, and got into his own carriage waiting there.
Du Qing has learned from each other.
Jiang Wei was very entangled, his thick eyebrows were furrowed, he wanted to stay but was afraid that his official position would not be enough, if Cheng Mo ordered the housekeeper in the house to accompany him to drink, it would be very boring, but if he wanted to leave like this, he was reluctant to drink that fine wine.
Cheng Mo looked at him with a smile.
Jiang Wei's muscles twitched a few times, and he said like a toothache: "Since this is the case, the lower official has also resigned." ” Seeing that you are so reluctant, is it possible that there will be two taels of meat less to eat one less drink, Cheng Mo couldn't help but smile: "It's okay to do this." ” Jiang Wei walked down the steps, stood again, turned around and said, "The lower official has a reluctant request, I don't know if the guard can be accommodating."
Seeing that his eyes lit up, he must have been very eager for something.
Cheng Mo said: "Please speak." ” It depends on what you want, if you can give it, you can't refuse it.
Jiang Wei's heart was horizontal, and he said loudly: "I drank the fine wine in the house last night, and it was very difficult to give up, I don't know if Wei Wei can cut his love and send him to the two altars of the official." t1706231537:
