Rebirth of the Northern Giants

The banquet was held in Anhak Palace, the old royal palace in Pyongyang. Ye Zhikui dressed up before going, changed into casual clothes he hadn't worn for a long time, got in a carriage and headed for Anhak Palace.

Ye Zhikui, who took off his military uniform, also lost a bit of toughness and arrogance, and added a bit of gentleness and tenderness. When Ye Zhikui entered the door, he was stopped by the doorman asking for an invitation card, but Ye Zhikui simply forgot to bring it. In the end, it was Zuo Baogui who arrived later He cleared the siege.When the disciples learned that they had stopped Young Marshal Ye, they were quite frightened. Fortunately, Ye Zhikui was not an ignorant person, so he didn't blame him.

Zuo Baogui said as he walked, "Nephew, you are so dressed that even I can hardly recognize you. There is one less young general, and one more young talent."

Ye Zhikui said embarrassingly: "Shi Bo was joking, my nephew knew this was the case and came here in military uniform."

The two walked into the palace talking and laughing. The banquet inside had already started for some time. Concubine Min was very well-mannered, because after the victory, the atmosphere was relaxed and happy. Seats, there are dancers performing on the inner high platform, among which the maids come and go, refilling wine and tea for everyone, and taking what they want to eat.

As soon as Ye Zhikui and Zuo Baogui entered the room, they became the focus of the whole room.It's not how glamorous the two of them are, but that the two of them came too late.When everyone saw Zuo Baogui, they pretended not to know that he had just arrived, but greeted him one after another.But when I saw Ye Zhikui, I got tired of it. Who is this person?Come so late and so calm, without a hint of shame.

Zuo Baogui looked around, and said to Ye Zhikui: "Nephew, the old man is going there, I guess you young people don't like talking with us old guys who are about to die."

Ye Zhikui watched Zuo Baogui leave with an embarrassed smile.Only then did I notice that because of the lax seating division at the banquet, except for a few well-appointed seats, the rest were all seated arbitrarily, which also caused acquaintances to basically sit together.

Ye Zhikui suddenly found that he had no place to sit. This banquet included all battalion officers and above. In his position, he should have followed Zuo Baogui, but as Zuo Baogui himself said, the group of people he was going to They are all old men, although Ye Zhikui knows them all, but he doesn't want to go and listen to these old men's lectures, no matter what, he can't urinate in a pot.

The other acquaintances at the banquet were only his subordinates, and Ye Zhikui didn't want to go there to make the atmosphere cold.As soon as he passed by, everyone would be restrained, and then the conversation would cool down.

Fortunately, the hall was wide enough, but Ye Zhikui didn't care, so he had to find a place with less people nearby to sit down.

After Ye Zhikui took his seat, he found that the people on his left and right were unfamiliar people.The man on the left is about 40 years old, dressed in a standard scribe's dress, with a blue silk robe in official uniform, and someone's staff member, watching the dancer's performance with great interest, while having a drink with himself from time to time.But the man on the right was a strong man in the official uniform of the Sheng army camp. The strong man was drinking alone. Seeing Ye Zhikui looking over, he raised his glass, saluted Ye Zhikui, and Ye Zhikui drank it back.

The strong man turned his head and said: "Brother, I saw you coming in with Zuo Shuai just now, could it be Feng Jun's brother."

Ye Zhikui was noncommittal, and asked instead: "I saw my brother drinking by himself, why is that?"

The strong man drank a glass vigorously, and said: "Don't mention those stupid things, brother, you can also tell that I am a small battalion officer of Sheng Jun, and I can't get sand in my eyes, and I don't like it. Someone withheld the sergeant's silver, and contradicted me a few words, just like this, I crossed out my military merits, bad luck, come to drink."

Although the brawny man lowered his voice, the scribe seemed to have heard it too. He put down his wine glass and stretched his ears to listen.Seeing this, Ye Zhikui secretly laughed, and said, "Brother, since you are interested, why don't you come and have a drink together."

The scribe smiled sheepishly, and sat around, the three of them exchanged glasses of wine, and Ye Zhikui said to the strong man: "It seems that the commander-in-chief of yours is the one who can make Xiongtai feel embarrassed."

The strong man looked around and said, "Our Shengjun brothers are miserable. They are incomparable to your Fengjun brothers. When we entered North Korea, we not only had to fight, but also had to plow and farm, and the military salary was not paid on time. I thought that when we arrived in North Korea It will be better, Zhiniang thief, when we get here, the military salary has been paid, but the rewards for the brothers who worked so hard are gone, I just couldn't bear it and refused to join forces and said a few words, and then I was squeezed out."

The scribe said, "Why don't you report this to Ye Shuai?"

The strong man curled his lips and replied: "Ye Shuai can control our Sheng army. Besides, since ancient times, officials and officials have been guarding each other. Brothers have no choice but to plunder all the way."

The scribe took a sip of his wine and said, "I think it's strange that you Shengjun Pyongyang rioted and robbed at night. The reason is not that simple."

Ye Zhikui lowered his head and said nothing, the strong man asked again: "What's wrong, isn't it just robbery?"

"No, how could the sergeant start looting the Japanese for no reason." The literati lowered his voice and said to Ye Zhikui and the strong man: "I suspect that this matter has something to do with Young Marshal Ye. I heard that he was assassinated by the Japanese the day before the incident. Another robbing sergeant said that he was jealous because of the tiger warriors saying that the Japanese had a lot of money."

Ye Zhikui choked on the wine when he heard this, but the strong man said: "Stop talking nonsense, I admire Young Marshal Ye the most, even if it is true, there is nothing wrong with killing the Japanese."

The scribe laughed and said, "You don't know that, it's said that Young Marshal Ye is only trying to kill the Japanese because of a woman."

Ye Zhikui was speechless, you literati who are full and have nothing to do, why do you like gossiping so much!Although he was a little surprised that this scribe could guess some facts, but he did not feel regretful or afraid. Ye Zhikui did what he did, and he would stand firm when the sky fell, not to mention that there was no clear evidence.

When the strong man heard this, he immediately became interested and asked repeatedly. Ye Zhikui was in a cold sweat, watching a black-bellied man and a fan man constantly gossiping about him, and asking himself such a question from time to time, it was really uncomfortable.

The three of them didn't communicate with each other's names, and they hit it off quite well, but it was a pity that the conversation between the three was interrupted not long after.

A crisp voice came over, "General Ye, why are you sitting here? Is it because my concubine didn't entertain me well?" Concubine Min stood not far away, followed by two court ladies, staring at him, who had finally found it with great difficulty. figure.

"General Ye?" The strong man and the literati glanced at each other, and then at Ye Zhikui.

Concubine Min obviously didn't understand what was going on, and said: "That's right, the famous Ye Zhikui Young Marshal Ye seems to be very dissatisfied with the slave family, and even the concubine, the host of the banquet, doesn't see him."

The faces of the strong man and the scribes changed drastically when they heard that, they had said quite a bit about Ye Zhikui's "heard incident" just now, so they hurriedly got up and escaped by urinating.

Ye Zhikui is trying to recruit these two people!But was disturbed by Concubine Min.Seeing Concubine Min's angry look again, Ye Zhikui had a headache.

Ye Zhikui had no choice but to stand up, took the wine glass, poured it on Concubine Min and said, "I'm a rough man, how dare I bother you, Madam?"

Concubine Min snorted coldly, and said, "What else are you afraid to do." Suddenly, she realized that the words were a bit ambiguous, and she didn't know what to think, her cheeks turned slightly red, as if she had been stained with a layer of rouge.

Ye Zhikui took a step forward and handed the wine glass to Concubine Min. At the same time, while the two maids behind Concubine Min were not paying attention, he gently hooked her jade-like palms with his fingers, and said softly: "Wait for me tonight, after the banquet I secretly stayed."

Concubine Min was attacked by this, her body trembled slightly, she hurriedly took the wine and drank it, she didn't even have time to say anything about the scene, and left in a hurry.

Ye Zhikui waited until the banquet was over, but he didn't wait for the two strong men and scribes who escaped by urinating, so he got up quietly, hid in a side hall and waited for dark.

It finally got dark, so Ye Zhikui sneaked out of the side hall impatiently, and slowly moved towards the sleeping hall. During this period, he avoided the maids and patrolling soldiers several times, and finally reached the place where Concubine Min lived. At this place, Ye Zhikui has had ulterior motives for a long time, he has already made many side-steps from Xiao Linglong, and found out the location of Concubine Min's bedroom clearly.

Opening the window, Ye Zhikui jumped in without a sound with a slight jerk, and closed the window casually. Ye Zhikui stepped forward lightly, and heard the sound of splashing water coming from the front. After walking a few steps, he turned around a screen, I saw Concubine Min soaking in the bathtub, rubbing her body.

The water vapor was hazy, and under the looming, white and crimson body was even more tempting to commit crimes. Ye Zhikui accidentally touched the screen lightly and made a slight sound.

Concubine Min raised her head and saw that it was Ye Zhikui, she smiled charmingly, hooked her finger lightly, and said softly: "Our great general is here, I have been waiting for you for a long time!"

Ye Zhikui cursed vixen inwardly, took off his clothes, jumped into the water, and said, "Xianzhu, hurry up and rub this general's back."

Concubine Min gently stroked her a few times, and Ye Zhikui turned around and hugged her.

"No, not here, let's go to bed!"

"Beauty, you are wrong, today I will play a new trick with you!"

It was not easy for the two of them to be together once, they were constantly asking for it, and there were bursts of panting...

The first volume of North Korea, Chapter 28, the secret plot

I woke up in the morning and saw someone giving me a reward. I was very happy. This is the first reward for this book. Thank you, brother "Delicate Pen", you made Xiaochong feel that the book he wrote can be appreciated by others.Take a bow and thank you!

..........................................................................................

The two of them tossed until the middle of the night before they calmed down. Ye Zhikui had to rest for a while and had to get up to leave. Concubine Min lazily wrapped her smooth arms around Ye Zhikui's body, and said charmingly: "Little enemy, you are leaving now!" gone?"

Ye Zhikui replied helplessly: "After a while, I'm afraid the sky will be bright, and it will not be convenient to come and go at that time."

Concubine Min hummed lightly, bit his back, and asked suddenly: "I heard from Congyun that you are short of money and silver."

Ye Zhikui frowned, Concubine Min was right, it was true, but she didn't know how she learned about it, because Ye Zhikui wanted to develop power in North Korea and cultivate his direct descendants.Thirteen Eagles is developing rapidly again, and money is needed everywhere, but Ye Zhikui is now a poor ghost. Some time ago, he sold a batch of relatively poor arms seized from the Japanese to the Koreans, but he couldn't make ends meet.

Suddenly, they couldn't raise so much money, thinking that Yuan Shikai made a lot of money by smuggling opium when he was in North Korea, so he wanted to get involved too!Heroin has already been invented. Do you want to sell it to Japan?But he can't quench his thirst from far away, and he can't go to Ye Zhichao and cry poorly, besides, Ye Zhichao still has a son!It's not good to have more.

Thinking of this, Ye Zhikui thought of Sheng Xuanhuai's younger brother Sheng Xinghuai who was known as the first official businessman in the late Qing Dynasty in history. He will never know that this matter is enough, whether he should make friends.

Seeing Ye Zhikui's silence, Concubine Min thought he had acquiesced, and then said: "I buried a batch of gold treasures not far from Seoul before the Donghak Party rioted and Japan seized the palace in Seoul."

Ye Zhikui was overjoyed that what was buried must be a good thing, he put his arms around Concubine Min's slender waist and asked, "Are you serious?"

Concubine Min nodded Ye Zhikui's tall nose bridge with her finger, and said with a coquettish smile, "Of course it's true, there can be fakes if I bury myself, but we have to pay five or five."

Ye Zhikui didn't care about this petty gain, but he didn't expect that Concubine Min was still a money fanatic, so he touched the beauty's chest, and said with a joke, "Are you and I going to divide each other?"
