Chapter 99: The young soldiers of the border army and the young master in the imperial garment

The name of Keshengju is also very famous in the imperial capital, one of the famous old brands in Chang'an City. It is said that when the late emperor went on a tour in a dress, he checked the people's sentiments in Chang'an only to eat in Keshengju. Later, he wrote a poem on the snow-white wall of a private room on the second floor of Keshengju. Later, there was no guest in this private room again, and the poems on the wall were protected, and even the tables and chairs in this room became treasures.

The Fenghuangtai, the border town of the Eastern Frontier of the Great Sui Dynasty, was also very famous. The victorious army of the Great Sui Dynasty accepted the surrender of the Emperor of the East Chu.

The war pushed the border line of the Great Sui Dynasty thousands of miles away. After the victory, the emperor issued an order to build the Phoenix Platform garrison, which was a stone city representing the glory of the Great Sui Dynasty, and of course it was also a symbol of the shame of the Eastern Chu State.

The scouts of Phoenix Terrace Mo Xidao wanted to treat him at Keshengju. With his background, he could get such a large sum of money. Is there anyone behind him support? After all, the salary of the scouts of the border army is only a little bit, and not everyone has good luck and means.

Fan Gu opened a market for trade, and Fang Jie was understandable to make money through business and make money. But how could a small person in the border army who was promoted to the brigade leader even after his birth and death, so how could he give out so much money to host hundreds of soldiers who participated in the Martial Arts Academy exam? Fang Jie was a little confused and always felt that this dinner was not as simple as expected at the beginning.

The soldiers have no particular concerns, especially the border soldiers. It is common for them to sleep in the open air and even not have a hot meal for several days and nights. The salary I earned from my life was sent home to honor my parents. When I had nothing to do, I found a small shop to have a hot pot and enjoy it, which was very satisfying.

Even Fang Jie, who has enough wealth, was a little embarrassed to see the luxurious restaurants in the imperial capital, let alone Mo Xidao, who has no way to make money?

Fang Jie came here by himself, and didn't bring Mu Xiaoyao.

If he brought Mu Xiaoyao, he would be drowned immediately by the envious saliva of others. The soldiers of the Great Sui border army have been stationed on the border for many years and it is common for not meeting women for a year or two. Mu Xiaoyao is too eye-catching, so Fang Jie doesn't want to be excluded because of this.

Since they are all border troops, let’s take a look at the simplicity that border troops should have.

So Fang Jie specially changed into his military uniform when he was in Fan Gu, and was straight and straight. Although it was a bit shabby compared to the sign of Ke Shengju, the pride and pride in his heart after wearing this outfit cannot be understood by any person. Only people wearing the same clothes can understand the complex meaning contained in the word Bian Jun.

Sadness, hardship, struggle, killing, drinking and talking about joy today, you may die tomorrow.

After being together for a long time, there will be a brotherhood between the soldiers of the border that can be trusted by life. For example, when he was in Fan Gu, most of the soldiers of the border who were taken by Wu Peisheng did not understand. People who have not experienced life and death will not understand how respectable the kind of trust that can hand over their backs to their comrades.

Keshengju is worthy of being a century-old store. Although it is magnificent, it does not have the attitude of bullying customers. Seeing Fang Jie coming, the guest at the door immediately greeted him attentively. The guy was very clever. He knew that Fang Jie was an invited candidate from the Ministry of War and was directly introduced to the lobby.

The entire first-floor lobby of Keshengju was wrapped by Mo Xidao.

Fang Jie couldn't calculate in detail how much money this was, but he was sure that although he could still take it out, he would definitely bit his finger with distress. At least forty tables could be placed in the lobby on the first floor of Keshengju. The floor paved with blue bricks was flat, which made people feel that this was a smooth huge rock.

When Fang Jie entered the door, there were already sixty or seventy people in the military uniform sitting in the lobby. Seeing someone entering the door, everyone looked at this side. The guy who led Fang Jie to ask Fang Jie in a low voice, then raised his jaw and shouted loudly: "The military master of Fan Gucheng has learned it!"

Hearing this name, the border soldiers in the lobby stood up immediately for some reason. Almost at the same time, everyone saluted Fang Jie with his arms crossed on his chest. Fang Jie felt warm, stood up straight, and his right arm crossed his chest to return the salute.

A man in the brigade costume came over with a smile and said in a gentle tone: "Welcome, we have all heard of your name, and we all know Fan Gu. A while ago, the eight hundred brothers of Fan Gu were killed immediately and died. The brothers have admiration in their hearts. We are all border troops and our own people."

A word about one's own people makes Fang Jie feel a lot.

Mr. Zhuo had already told him about Fan Gu's affairs. Fang Jie suppressed his hatred for Li Xiaozong in his heart, but today he seemed to be unable to control his feelings no matter how hard he was to control his feelings, and his eyes turned red without realizing it.

"I am the only living border army in Fan Gu. I will receive the military salute from everyone on behalf of my brothers!"

He said.

The soldiers in the lobby had solemn faces, and the scene was so quiet that it made people uncomfortable.

"Let's sit in first. We were talking about you just now. We are very curious about you. We all admire you how heroic he is who can make twenty-one military achievements. By the way... My name is Zhang Kuang, and I came from the northeast border of the Great Sui Dynasty."

Crazy!

Fang Jie felt a little nervous when he heard this name.

This middle-aged man who looks kind and gentle, about thirty years old, has fair skin and bright eyes. If he changes into a long robe, no one would suspect that he is a scholar with spring and autumn in his belly. He is not tall, thin, and is a little shorter than Fang Jie, and does not look cold-blooded and ruthless. But it is such a kind-hearted person, a cold-hearted person who has been lurking in the Northern Barbarian tribe for two years, married the daughter of the tribe leader, and then sent his father-in-law and his wife to hell with his own hands. Speaking of which, the more than 10,000 Northern Barbarians' heads such a large blood debt should be counted on him.

In Anyuan City, Zhang Kuang was promoted to the brigade leader due to his merits. When he heard this name in Wu Yidao Mansion, Fang Jie once thought that he would be a person with a cold and arrogant face on his face.

“Have you seen the brigade leader!”

Fang Jie saluted again.

In terms of identity, he was just a scout team deputy, so he naturally had to salute him when he saw Zhang Kuang.

"Come on, sit with your brothers."

Zhang Kuang and gentle smiled.

...

...

"Maybe you're a little curious"

Zhang Kuang pulled Fang Jie to sit down next to a table, and said with a gentle smile: "We are all miserable border soldiers. How can we book a whole lobby in Ke Shengju so generously? Looking at your expression, I know that you definitely don't know the allusions, and no one has mentioned them to you."

Fang Jie nodded and said, "I'm really curious."

"Do you know who the ancestor of this boss of Keshengju?"

Zhang asked.

Fang Jie shook his head.

Zhang Kuang smiled and said, "The boss of Ke Shengju is also from military martial arts, named Li Sheng. He is also a member of the border army. Once in a fierce battle, he had to go home. After returning to Chang'an City, Li Sheng used his salary and the silver rewarded by military merits to open the restaurant. It was just a small shop at that time. Over time, the business of the building became more and more prosperous, and gradually became very famous in Chang'an. But Li Sheng did not forget his background. Any soldiers who came to the restaurant for dinner would not charge any money. But because they did not charge money, the soldiers were embarrassed to come back. Later, everyone persuaded Li Sheng, and he decided that if the soldiers would only charge 10% of the meal in the future. This rule has been followed by Li Sheng since Li Sheng established it."

"No wonder"

Fang Jie felt respect for the founder of the Hik Shengju.

"There is another allusion."

Zhang Kuang smiled and said, "Since His Majesty established the Martial Arts Academy, the current boss of Keshengju has set another rule. Every candidate from the border army can eat a free meal and order food as long as he walks into the gate of Keshengju. With this rule, the candidates of the Martial Arts Academy of the Martial Arts Academy gathered together to discuss it and decided to convene a party of the border army in Keshengju so that everyone can get to know each other. After all, we are not rich at hand, and we can't afford to treat guests. This year, Mo Xidao from Phoenix Station came out to arrange it. He said that he still has to thank the boss of Keshengju."

Fang Jie really doesn't know these things.

Since he arrived in the imperial capital, he has not been idle, and has been plotted against others, and most of the information he inquired was only for the examinations of the Martial Arts Academy. He has never heard of these things Zhang Kuang said. After he arrived in the imperial capital, he did not go around and ask for interesting stories like other soldiers in the border army. He was busy in the deadly situation and how to avoid being killed, and how to deal with waves of enemies in the open and dark places.

"What about Brother Mo?"

Fang answered the question.

Zhang Kuang said: "He was helping with the wine behind him and he will be back in a while."

As he was talking, a group of border soldiers suddenly surged out from behind Ke Shengju, each holding a jar of wine. The leader was a tall man, thin and strong, and the most eye-catching thing was the scar on his face from his forehead to his jaw.

He actually... lost one eye!

Seeing the surprise on Fang Jie's face, Zhang Kuang sighed slightly, "He is Mo Xidao. He killed more than 100 people in the infiltrated Dongchu that year, but he also damaged one trick. But it would be great if he could come back alive. If it were the case, I would have died in a foreign country. And... if I died in Dongchu, the court would never admit this credit."

desolate

The sadness in his tone made people feel touched.

He was right. If Mo Xidao had not been able to come back alive and was caught by Dong Chu's pursuers, the court would never have recognized him as a soldier of the Great Sui Dynasty. Even if the Great Sui Dynasty never took Dong Chu seriously, such a matter of destroying the entire family for no reason would have ruined the reputation of the Great Sui Dynasty. In fact, the Fenghuangtai guard who sent him to Dong Chu that year did just let him sneak into Dong Chu to inquire about the news. Zhang Kuang took his own initiative to destroy the entire family of the Dong Chu.

"I heard that Brother Fang Jie is here!"

The tall man with one left eye handed over the jar of wine to someone else and asked loudly: "Who is Brother Fang?"

"I am!"

Fang Jie quickly stood up and saluted: "I have seen the brigade leader!"

He and Zhang Kuang had such great contributions, but they were only promoted from the team to the brigade leader. It has to be said that the Sui court owed them and the border soldiers. Fang Jie had no doubt at all. If such great contributions were made by the children of aristocratic families, I was afraid that they would get much more than Zhang Kuang and others. Even if the court still did not promote them with great publicity, this was undoubtedly their qualifications for promotion and wealth in the future.

Now, the court has just given Zhang Kuang and Mo Xidao a chance to take the Martial Arts Academy exam, and these humble border soldiers are grateful to Wuming.

"I-Fuck!"

The figure is half a head tall, and the thin but strong Mo Xidao strode over and laughed loudly as he walked: "I thought that Brother Fang Jiefang, who has made twenty-one military achievements, must be a burly man, why is it actually a handsome young man who looks like a woman? Haha, you are not pretending to be the name of my brother Fang. If I see that you are fake, you have to be careful of your fart!"

What a vulgar person, but Fang Jie is not disgusted at all.

This is Fang Jie's true nature of the familiar border soldiers. They were rough and seemed to be devastated by the wind. They opened their mouths and shut up and were swearing, but their hearts were all hot.

"There are many people who want to get my fart, but I have been poked by them! If I had known that everyone knew my name, I would have stood up and showed off and cheated on food and drink."

Fang Jie said with a smile.

Ha ha!

Mo Xidao strode over and gave Fang Jie a bear hug: "He killed hundreds of horse thieves and is of course a man! I don't like being slutty the most. Come on, I will tell whether I lie or not!"

After he hugged Fang Jie, he grabbed Fang Jie's right hand and looked at it.

"What a thick knife cocoon!"

He couldn't help sighing, then raised Fang Jie's right hand and shouted: "This is our little brother, the youngest border army who participated in the Martial Arts Academy exam this year! You all show me his appearance clearly. Whoever dares to bully our little brother in the future is not allowed to pretend to be cowardly!"

Everyone applauded.

At this moment, six or seven young men in brocade clothes suddenly walked in from outside the gate of Keshengju.

The person in the leader had an extraordinary face, but his face turned too pale, as if he had a layer of powder. His nose was tall and his lips were very thin. Seeing the soldiers in the room of the border soldiers, the man couldn't help but frown and whisper: "A group of poor poor people came here to eat for free, and I don't know why they were so thick-skinned!"

The young man was smart and hurriedly asked the people in: "Young Master, hurry up to the private room on the second floor."

"It smells like fishy smell, disgusting!"
