Dawei Fanghua

Chapter 31 Drunken Sword Dance

The sky shrouded by clouds in Shouchun was gray and seemed to have become shorter, and the sound of wind rose and fell.There was a faint sound of strings in the attic of the front hall.

The woman passing by couldn't help but be curious, so she walked up the stairs and took a look into the attic.

Then he saw a handsome man wearing a dark blue coat with long sleeves and a small crown dancing drunkenly with a sword in the hall. He was a stranger he had never seen before.Erlang's face is a little white, and you can see the light and unnoticeable goatee. He is really good-looking, tall, and his drunken posture is like a jade mountain about to fall.

But the last thing in her life was to see someone dancing with a sword. Her slightly upturned red lips curled up, revealing a look of disdain and anger, and her beautiful eyes with single eyelids had a stern expression.Apparently Nalang's sword dance and songs did not move her, but only stimulated her.

The scene of the sword dance and the longing song seemed like some kind of signal that woke up the woman and made her remember all the things she had tried so hard to forget.She was distracted for a while, and she couldn't hear the words clearly clearly. The music already made her upset.Some kind of regret and hatred were entangled in her heart.

She put her hands on her chest and pressed it into a very deep depression. She almost shouted out her long-suppressed feelings and relieved the heaviness in her heart.In the end, I had to sigh "Alas" unintentionally.

The inadvertent sound immediately alerted the people in the attic, and several people looked over.

The woman's movements were very agile and her posture was very brisk, and she hurriedly dodged.Unexpectedly, the gaffe just now had already affected her mind. She stumbled and fell to the ground. The pain immediately made her gasp.

But there were footsteps in the attic, as if someone was coming.Regardless of her injury, she immediately got up from the ground, gritted her teeth and endured the pain, and limped away in a hurry.

... Qin Liang heard someone sighing outside the door. When he turned around to look, he only saw the hem of the light cyan long skirt on the stairs at the door. Soon, like the ebbing tide, the hem of the skirt that was dragging to the floor disappeared in a moment.Then I heard footsteps on the stairs. The woman must have walked away.

Qin Liang couldn't see the person clearly and couldn't ask questions.Most of the girls who can come to General Zhengdong's residence are female members of the Wang Ling family. What is an outsider asking for?
The sound of the piano and the singing were disturbed and stopped, but they had already played it once before, so there was no need to continue.The guests who had been lost in thought during the music just now suddenly came back to their senses.

Qin Liang bowed to his superiors and his colleagues before leaving.

Wang Guang, who had a beard on his face, had a reluctant expression on his face, and took the initiative to ask: "Is Zhongming proficient in playing the harp? How about you and your servant playing the harp to each other?"

The harp and the harp are harmonious, how good is the harp and the harp?Me and you with this big beard?But pull it down!

Just now, he asked Qin Liang to write a poem, which had already given Wang Guang face. Now Qin Liang no longer had to agree, so he excused himself and said: "The technique is a bit rusty, I'm afraid I can't keep up with Gong Yuan, and it will make people laugh in public. Someone will come soon." I washed my ears by the fat water."

Wang Guang then smiled and let Qin Liang go.After the joke just now, the originally sad atmosphere gradually eased, and people's conversations filled the attic again.

The banquet continued, and it was only after they were full of food and wine that they ended.Qin Liang followed Sun Li to say goodbye to Wang Ling and walked out of the attic.

After walking out of the gatehouse of General Zhengdong's Mansion, Qin Liang got on Sun Li's carriage and rode with him.He opened the curtain and took another look.However, the green attic of the mansion is antique, the cornices of the tower, and the air corridors connecting the turrets make the military facilities somewhat graceful and elegant.

Qin Liang asked: "How many troops and horses does Duke Ming have?" Sun Li said: "On weekdays, there are only thousands of cavalry brought from Luoyang, which are Chinese and foreign troops and Zhuang soldiers. Among them, the Chinese and foreign troops are also controlled by the king's governor in terms of status. The only one who completely obeys my orders is Zhuang Ding. If the garrison guards and state and county soldiers are summoned, the Royal Governor will let me take charge of some of the troops. However, for general military affairs, we still have to rely on the orders of the Royal Governor."

Qin Liang thought for a while, cupped his hands and said, "I understand."

The Chinese and foreign armies were all the central forbidden armies of the Great Wei State, and were organized directly under the jurisdiction of the imperial court.

The one stationed in Luoyang is called the Central Army, which is led by the leading general and the guard general. It is mainly the new fifth battalion. The old fifth school of the Northern Army has very few soldiers.The imperial troops stationed in important towns in other places were called foreign troops, and they were commanded by the governors of the four directions who were ordered by the imperial court.

The troops recruited by prefectures, counties and monasteries, the private soldiers maintained by officials, and the guards in military camps are not called foreign troops.

Therefore, in what Sun Li said just now, he said that the Chinese and foreign troops he brought over should also be controlled by the governor. After all, Wang Ling was nominally the commander-in-chief of the Chinese and foreign troops stationed in the entire Yangzhou area.But the people brought over by Sun Li can of course just follow Sun Li's orders under normal circumstances.

We rely on Chinese and foreign troops to fight tough battles. They are the most capable soldiers.Cao Shuang and Sima Yi, who are now in charge of the government, have a title that symbolizes their immense power: Commander-in-Chief of Chinese and Foreign Military Affairs.

Everyone returned to the Governor's Mansion, and Qin Liang went to his office to get something.

When he came to the hall again, Qin Liang walked in directly.He and Sun Li ate together here almost every day, and they were very close.

This is different from Qin Liang's position as an official in Cao Shuang's mansion. Cao Shuang has close confidants He Yan, Ding Mi, Li Sheng and others. They are the people Cao Shuang relies on from the beginning. They are the ones who get along with Cao Shuang day and night. All can be discussed.

When Sun Li became the governor of Yangzhou, Qin Liang was his personal official recruiter. Therefore, Sun Li had several closest civil and military officials around him, and Qin Liang was one of them.What's more, these people from outside Shouchun have no place to live, and they still live together in the government office. It can be said that they eat and sleep together.

Qin Liang came forward with the slip, presented it to Sun Li on the desk in front of him, and said: "My servant checked the weapons used by various armies, and saw that there were weapons workshops in Shouchun, Hefei and other cities, so he wanted to make a new batch of weapons. , and train army tactics accordingly. Practicing it will definitely improve combat effectiveness and prepare for the next Wu army's attack."

He then picked out one of the volumes and said, "This is the modified weapon. There are not many changes, just some changes in length."

Sun Li put his hand on the slip and looked at it carefully.Qin Liang sat next to him and gave a detailed oral explanation to the place Sun Li pointed to.

Today I have received the order from the Commander-in-Chief, Wang Ling, to "convene at that time, prepare for war if necessary, and train if necessary."Qin Liang wanted to strike while the iron was hot and get authorization from Sun Li so that he could continue to do more practical things.

This is what an official like Qin Liang is like, his power can be great or small.The decision-making power is in the hands of the lord. As long as you get the nod from the lord, you can do anything.Even those civil servants and generals with higher grades have to obey.
