In this side room, Luo Lingwei was sound asleep on her bed. Zhang Long and the others were on duty outside the door, and Zhao Wei and Zhao Hu were calculating the distance between them. On the other side, a group of elite soldiers had set up camp outside the inn and were preparing a meal. A few centurions were sitting in front of the bonfire, cursing and swearing.
"F * ck, that Zhao Wei really has a lot of authority. He ate his fill and dressed warmly in the inn, yet we brothers have to camp outside to suffer this suffering." Zhao Si scolded.
"Not bad, who knows where this f * cker came from. He has been enduring in the capital for so many years, and I've been to his shop many times. He's always been polite to everyone he meets." I didn't expect him to be so fierce! " Li Si said.
"That's right, we have seen General Tong's martial arts, but he was actually able to snatch his knife and hack him into two with a flip of his hand. It's absolutely amazing." On the other side, Qian San also nodded.
"Tell me, with his skills, if he were to go to the battlefield and fight a few battles, wouldn't it be easy for him to become a general?" "How could he be willing to be a restaurant owner in the capital?" Zhao Si asked curiously after drinking a mouthful of wine.
"I heard that Zhao Wei was very concerned about that wangfei. Could it be …" As Li Si spoke, his face gradually revealed a lewd and evil smile.
"That might still be possible. This wangfei is really pretty, but our wangye is famous for not looking at women at all. It's normal for her to be lonely." As Qian San spoke, a few of them burst out laughing.
While the three of them were talking and laughing, a messenger and a few servants drove a few carriages into the camp. The sentry stopped them and shouted out, "What are you guys doing?!" "My name is Chen, and I am from the Pine Hall. I don't have much food in the house, so I can't tell you to be brave, so I've specially sent some people to hurry up and prepare some meat and wine for you, to treat you all."
The guard opened the lid and smelled the aroma of the wine, then laughed and said: "Come in, it has been hard on you, Sir Fu. A few people have come to help!" As soon as they heard that someone was bringing meat and wine over, everyone surrounded them. Not too long after, the carriages of fine wine and cooked food were all divided among the soldiers.
Following which, the official and a few other attendants left the stronghold, and behind them, the entire stronghold suddenly burst out in cheers and cheers. Zhao Wei and Zhao Hu were about to rest, but they heard the noise outside the inn. Thus, they called a soldier over to ask. Drinking and having fun while marching was a taboo in the military. What's more, Zhao Wei had strictly restrained them from drinking along the way, but there were still people who turned a deaf ear to him.
"Zhao Hu, let's go and see what's going on!" Zhao Wei waved his hand and the two of them picked up their swords before walking into the camp. After a while, they arrived at the camp and saw Zhao Si and the rest sitting in front of the fire with a wine bowl in one hand and a piece of soy sauce in the other. The rest of the people did the same as well. Zhao Wei was so angry that he stepped forward and grabbed Zhao Siyi's lapel. He raised his hand and slapped her.
"Pa!" A crisp slapping sound could be heard. The crowd who were originally cheering were all stunned.
"What did I tell you when I was on my way?" Zhao Wei's face turned green as he looked at the more than 400 people, but none of them dared to speak.
Only now did Zhao Si awaken from his daze after being slapped by Zhao Wei. He covered his still faintly aching face, pointed at Zhao Wei and said, "You lowly person that sells meat and wine, you actually dare to hit me, your lord!"
When everyone heard him, they knew that Zhao Si was already drunk. Then, he started to blabber nonsense. And when Zhao Wei heard this, he sneered and said, "Your wineskin and rice bag is worthy to be this Centurion! Look what you've done to your men! Today, I shall kill you and enforce the law of the land! " As he said this, Zhao Wei pulled out his long blade and kicked Zhao Si onto the ground. No matter how much Zhao Si struggled, he could not stand up.
Zhao Wei looked around and said, "You guys watch and see. If anyone dares to disobey the military order again in the future, this person will end up as well. Do you understand?" Zhao Wei's hand raised and his blade fell. Zhao Si's head rolled to the side.
At this point, everyone was scared out of their wits and had half of their alcohol to drink. However, just as they were about to reply to Zhao Wei, they saw stars in front of their eyes and after a short while, they all fell to the ground.
Zhao Wei was shocked. He walked up to sniff the remaining wine, but he smelled a strange smell and yelled, "Not good!"
"Zhao Hu, quickly go back and call for a few people. Get Zhang Long to protect the Empress. There's a problem with this inn!" Zhao Wei shouted to Zhao Hu.
Zhao Hu nodded and quickly ran back to the inn. On the other side, Zhao Hu had just left when he saw ten strong men holding a long-hilted saber walking out from the darkness.
