The next day at noon, Yun Zheng followed the address on the invitation and came to the Duke Rong's Mansion.
As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw a big man with a hairy face waiting there.
Taking a closer look, this guy looks almost exactly like Qin Liugan.
It’s the youthful version of Qin Liugan.
Seeing Yun Zheng coming with his guards, he immediately ran forward and asked, "Is it the Sixth Prince?"
"Um."
Yun Zheng jumped off his horse and asked, "Are you the son of Duke Rong?"
"right!"
The hairy-faced man nodded and bowed slightly, "Qin Qihu greets His Highness the Sixth Prince!"
Qin Qihu?
...
...
A black line passed across Yun Zheng’s forehead.
So, the Qin family's seniority is arranged from one to ten?
If this is passed down to the eleventh generation, would he be called Qin Shiyilang?
"Brother Qin is too polite."
Yun Zheng waved his hands repeatedly, "Duke Rong and my father are sworn brothers, there is no need for us to be polite."
"Haha, that's what I've been waiting for you to say!"
Qin Qihu laughed loudly and enthusiastically put his arm around Yun Zheng's shoulders, "Sixth Prince, please come in quickly. My father and the emperor are waiting for you to drink!"
"ah?"
Yun Zheng was startled, "Is my father here too?"
"Of course!"
Qin Qihu winked and said, "If my father hadn't invited His Majesty to our house for a drink, how could he have kept you in the Carpenters' Office?"
When Yun Zheng heard this, his face suddenly turned black.
My cheap father sold me out over a meal?
How long has it been since he had a drink with this old rogue?
With a heart full of resentment, Yun Zheng followed Qin Qihu to the backyard.
In the backyard, the old rogue was arguing with Emperor Wen.
"Stop playing dirty, you must have moved my chess piece!"
"Which eye of yours saw me move your chess piece? It's obvious that your chess skills are not as good as mine!"
"Bullshit! How can my chess skills be worse than yours?"
"Oh, I have been closed to visitors for many years, studying chess painstakingly, and my chess skills are no longer what they used to be!"
"You're still studying chess. I'd rather believe you've dug a hole and buried yourself in it!"
"What, you want to sentence me to death?"
“…”
As soon as they arrived at the door, they heard Emperor Wen arguing with the old rogue.
Yun Zheng was stunned when he heard that.
Oh my god!
My father actually referred to himself as "I" in front of this old rogue?
How close must his relationship with this old rogue be!
No wonder this old rogue is only fined every time he makes a mistake!
Among all the civil and military officials in the court, this old rogue is the only one who has received such treatment, right?
The two of them were arguing fiercely in the backyard.
It was not until they saw Yun Zheng and Qin Qihu come in that the two stopped arguing and sat up straight.
"Greetings to the Emperor, and to the Duke of Rong..."
Yun Zheng stepped forward and saluted obediently.
“That’s enough, that’s enough!”
Emperor Wen waved his hand and said, "If there are no outsiders, then don't bother with all these empty formalities! You can just find a place to sit down first, and wait for me to finish playing chess with this idiot."
After saying this, Emperor Wen started playing chess with Qin Liugan again.
Yun Zheng and Qin Qihu were watching from the side without saying anything to disturb the two.
During this time, Qin Liugan kept disturbing Emperor Wen's sight by moving the chess pieces on the board.
Through this shameless method, Qin Liugan finally won.
“Wahahaha…”
A typical Qin-style laugh rang out, and Qin Liugan put his hands on his hips and laughed triumphantly: "So, my five years of painstaking study of chess was not in vain, right?"
"You shameless old thing!"
Emperor Wen laughed and scolded, "If you don't cheat, can you beat me?"
"Playing tricks?"
Qin Liu dared to curl his lips and immediately looked at Yun Zheng and Qin Qihu, "Am I cheating?"
As he spoke, Qin Liugan showed his sharp white teeth and smiled particularly ferociously.
When the two men saw this, they shook their heads like rattles.
If they dare to accuse this old rogue of cheating, he will probably hang them on the beam to dry!
“See?”
Qin Liu dared to grin and laugh, "Your son said I didn't cheat!"
Emperor Wen was speechless and didn't bother to argue with the old rogue. "Okay, it's okay if you win, right? Hurry up and ask your people to prepare some wine and food. I'm hungry!"
"Look at what you're saying. If you come to my place, can I still offer you wine and meat?"
Qin Liugan laughed, then immediately turned his head and glared at Qin Qihu, "You evil creature, why don't you go and ask someone to prepare wine and food? Didn't you hear His Majesty say he was hungry?"
Qin Qihu immediately used Flash and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Yun Zheng saw this and couldn't help but secretly sympathize with Qin Qihu.
How badly must he have been tortured by this old rogue to have been able to develop such a weird flashing skill!
Soon, the food and wine were ready.
Qin Liugan deliberately asked all the servants in the house to leave.
Emperor Wen also ordered all the guards to withdraw, which showed that he had great trust in Qin Liugan and his son.
Just as Yun Zheng was about to pour the wine, the old rogue slapped his paw away and said, "It's not your turn to pour the wine!"
As he spoke, Qin Liugan directly picked up the wine jar, poured a bowl of wine for Emperor Wen, and then poured a bowl for himself.
Emperor Wen was about to pick up the wine bowl, but Qin Liugan held his hand.
"I'm sorry for you and Da Gan! I'll punish myself by drinking three bowls of rice first!"
As he spoke, Qin Liugan directly picked up the wine bowl and drank it in a few gulps. Then he poured himself another bowl, drank it in a few gulps, and then had a third bowl.
"none of your business!"
Emperor Wen glared at Qin Liugan, "You are not qualified to let Da Gan down!"
After saying this, Emperor Wen picked up the wine and drank it in a few gulps.
Yun Zheng looked at the two old guys with a bewildered look on his face.
Why couldn't he understand what these two old guys were talking about?
Qin Liugan rubbed his nose and slapped Qin Qihu on the forehead with his backhand, "What are you doing standing there like an idiot? Pour the wine!"
Qin Qihu looked at his father depressedly and poured the wine obediently.
Qin Liugan glanced at Yun Zheng sideways, and then said to Emperor Wen: "Your son is a good person, but he is not suitable to go to Shuobei."
"Bullshit, how could I not know that?"
Emperor Wen rarely showed off his imperial airs, and glared at Yun Zheng, "This bastard has pushed him and me to the forefront. I won't let him go to Shuobei, okay?"
"Why not?"
Qin Liugan puffed up his eyes like copper bells, "As long as you don't let him go to Shuobei, if anyone dares to object, I will knock out his front teeth! If you feel embarrassed, leave this matter to me!"
Oh shit!
Hearing the old rogue's words, Yun Zheng immediately cried out that something was wrong.
From what this old fellow said, he wants to help his father to stay in the imperial city!
Damn it!
Has this old rogue really become a Cheng Yaojin who shows up out of nowhere?
Emperor Wen was silent for a while, then shook his head and said, "It's okay. Lao Liu is a bit cowardly by nature. It would be good to let him go to Shuobei to train!"
"Exercise as hell!"
Qin Liugan said angrily: "He is not fit to lead an army in battle! It would be better for you to assign him a job in the Ministry of Industry than to send him to Shuobei for training!"
"Let's not talk about this for now!"
Emperor Wen waved his hand, "We haven't sat together to drink for more than five years. Let's have a good drink first, and we can talk about other things later!"
As he spoke, Emperor Wen took the initiative to pick up the wine bowl and clinked it with Qin Liugan...
