Chapter 191 Dunwu Dutong(2/3)
If they can all be deployed, even though this "Dunwu Army" is separated from the Privy Council and the Three Yamen, it is not completely out of control.
What's more, this Guo Mo, at first glance, seems to be a well-rounded person, so he may not be unable to have good cooperation opportunities in the future.
"Okay, Prime Minister Shi is indeed very impressive, so it's settled that all fifty people taking the 'Martial Arts Examination' will enter the 'Dun Wu Army'."
"Promote Guo Mo to be the commander-in-chief of the "Dunwu Army", and Meng Gong and Yue Ao to be the deputy commanders of the left and right, assisting Guo Mo in the training of the "Dunwu Army"."
"I will give you three months. After three months, I will personally inspect the "Dunwu Army" at the military training ground in the south of the city. If I am satisfied, I will personally award the flag to you and others!"
"When I finally thank the officials for their support, I will surely break into pieces. I will repay you with all my heart!"
The three of them bowed down and thanked each other again.
The lengthy court meeting was finally over.
Outside the Li Zhengmen, the top ten "Emperor's Disciples" freshly released from Jinke filed out of the palace.
"Congratulations to Guo Dutong and both of you. From now on, my brothers will be working under you, haha——"
Lei Peng's careless temperament had long forgotten his failure in the competition.
After all, my skills are not as good as others, and I am also an "Integrity Man" now, from the ninth rank.
Lei Peng has been in the army for two or three years and has fought some battles. However, he has no one to support him in the army. He is still just a small "Deputy Lieutenant of Jinyi". He has been promoted to five levels all of a sudden.
"Everyone, it's past noon now, and we are all hungry after working hard for a long time. I wonder if I can give you a favor, so I would like to invite you to get together at the 'Sanyuan Building'?"
Guo Mo also liked Lei Peng's character, so he thanked him first and then said to everyone.
"Haha, that's a good relationship. 'Sanyuan Building', I heard that it is one of the largest restaurants in Lin'an City. Wang has been in Beijing for a few days and has never dared to go in for a drink."
Wang Jian echoed from the side.
"This is the first general order given by Guo Dutong, and the last general will obey it to the death, haha——"
Even Yu Jie, who seemed so weak, actually responded actively when he heard about drinking.
"Guo Dutong, the general is still busy, so he won't go through. See you at the military camp in three days."
Still uncooperative, Li Geng clasped his fist at Guo Mo, then mounted his horse and left.
Zhang Ce didn't even reply, he jumped on his horse and left immediately behind.
"These two people are the prime minister. Guo Dutong should not take it to heart if his results are not good in this competition."
Qin Ju came to Guo Mo and reminded him in a low voice.
"Haha, Guo Mo is not so stingy. It's just that in three days, I will enter the military camp. Once we enter the military camp, we won't have many opportunities to drink."
"If I don't take the opportunity to drink once, I don't know when the next time will be. Do you have any objections?"
Guo Mo was asking everyone, but his eyes were fixed on Meng Gong, who was also the person he cared about most.
"Since Guo Dutong Shengyi Quanquan, it would be too unwise for us to refuse. I just want to go and see what's so special about the famous 'Sanyuan Tower' in Lin'an?"
Meng Gong's statement was echoed by others.
Originally, they were all young people in their early twenties. The eldest was probably Qin Ju, who had just turned thirty, but today he accepted Guo Mo's favor twice.
It can be regarded as a "golden list title", and what is even more rare is that he has been given the additional gift of "emperor's disciple". Now that the future summit is going to treat guests, and it is a place like "Sanyuan Building", how can you not go there happily?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Guanying, go to the 'Sanyuan Building' first and book the best private room. We will arrive soon."
Guo Mo didn't think much about it. Seeing that everyone agreed, he gave the order casually.
Lu Guanying clasped his fists in agreement, mounted his horse and left first.
This scene, in the eyes of the other six people, was extremely shocking.
"Um... Guo Dutong, this Brother Lu Guanying, do you two know each other?"
Lei Peng is a stubborn person who can't hold back his words. Moreover, he was defeated by Guo Mo and Lu Guanying one after another, so he can barely be regarded as an "acquaintance" of these two.
"Well, Guanying is one of my nephews. His kung fu is only so-so. This guy is usually too lazy. I hope you can bear with me and give me some advice when he is in the army."
Guo Mo said calmly.
Well, this time of pretense, the other people don’t know what to say.
"Haha - let's go. When we get to the 'Sanyuan Building', let's eat and talk."
Everyone got on their horses and headed towards the "Sanyuan Tower".
"Young Marshal, this Guo Mo is not simple."
Wang Jian followed Meng Gong, and both of them were born in the "Loyal and Shun Army". The commander of the "Loyal and Shun Army" was Meng Gong's father, Meng Zongzheng. Therefore, Wang Jian also called Meng Gong "Young Marshal" in private.
"Yonggu, don't call me 'Young Marshal' anymore. It will have a bad influence. Although Guo Dutong is not old, his skills and intelligence are the best."
"If you can work with him, you will definitely be able to achieve something. Since he can so easily instruct people like Lu Guanying, and he can take people directly to the 'Sanyuan Building' and arrange a high-class private room without making a reservation in advance."
"This kind of ability is rare even in Lin'an. He is currently the top martial arts champion in high school, the appointed head coach of the Dunwu Army, and the Tipian Imperial City Secretary. Who would believe that he has no background?
"
Guo Mo also didn't expect that just by asking Lawrence Lu to book a private room at will, Meng Gong would think so much.
When a group of people arrived at the "Sanyuan Building", there was already the shopkeeper Wu Mianfeng waiting at the door with a few waiters.
Although it was already past dinner time, many people went to watch it this morning. The competition in front of the "Five Phoenix Tower" also had lunch a little late.
"Haha - welcome to the 'Sanyuan Tower'. Today you are awarded the title of 'Disciple of the Emperor' together, and you are also in charge of the 'Dunwu Army'. In the future, you will surely rise to the top, and your official career will be prosperous."
"The best private room has been vacated in the 'Sanyuan Building'. All purchases today are half price, so let's take it as Wu's congratulations to all the generals!"
This Wu Mianfeng is becoming more and more like a businessman.
This loud voice yelled at the door and went out like an advertisement.
"Shopkeeper Wu is so sincere, we brothers will not be polite. My dear, Guo Mo, I will host a banquet for several future colleagues today. Sanyuanlou will serve you all the good wine and food. The more the better."
Guo Mo also cooperated with him, and even took out a thousand tael of silver note from his arms and handed it to Wu Mianfeng.
"Open it. If there's more, it's yours. If you don't have enough, come back to me."
This arrogant Lei Peng and Wang Jian's eyes were filled with little stars. Lu Guanying hid behind Wu Mianfeng, her mouth curled up, not daring to smile.
"It turns out that Duke Zhuangyuan is here in person. I am disrespectful and disrespectful. Everyone, please come upstairs!"
A waiter had already gone over and took over everyone's horses. Under the personal guidance of the shopkeeper, and with the envy of the diners in the lobby on the first floor, everyone arrived at a private room on the third floor.
"Qilinju? What a good sign!"
Seeing the name of the private room, Yu Jie couldn't help but admire it.
Everyone entered the private room. As expected, the decoration was luxurious and magnificent. All tableware was made of gold and silver jewelry. Even the tables and chairs for eating were all made of mahogany.
The private room is very large, visually at least two feet square, with the left and right sides slightly longer. The floor is covered with a thick orange-red carpet.
When he took over the "Sanyuan Building", due to Guo Mo's suggestion, all the dining tables in the private rooms had been replaced by large round tables.
In fact, the round table appeared as early as the Sui and Tang Dynasties, but more people still habitually choose the Eight Immortals table.
There are four beautiful women in formal dresses standing at the four corners, ready to pour wine and serve dishes for the guests.
"Shopkeeper, it's fine if you have already picked out the food and drinks. There's no need for a maid. My brothers are all men in the military. When you're drunk, it's not good to cause trouble for no reason."
After Guo Mo's words, Meng Gong, Yu Jie, and Qin Ju's eyes flashed again.
It’s really commendable to suddenly be in a high position, young and rich, but to be able to restrain yourself like this!
Not long after, dishes and dishes filled the table.
Golden Chicken, Dongpo Pork, Sea Bass, Crab Stuffed with Orange, Song Sao Fish Soup, Wushan Ghee, Rice Balls, Mutton Shaomai, Premium Sour Mix, Beggar's Chicken, Sweet and Sour Pork Ribs, Old Hangzhou Smoked Fish, Bamboo Shoots
Dry old duck pot...
Guo Mo felt that the two royal banquets he had in the palace seemed to be inferior to the dishes here.
It is estimated that "Sanyuanlou" has taken these people into consideration and all of them are able to eat, so the amount of dishes has been increased a lot.
The wine is even better.
Yangzhou's "Qionghua Dew", Yuezhou's "Penglai Spring", Xiuzhou's "Qing Ruoxu", Zhenjiang's "Floating Jade Spring", Jiankang's "Qinhuaichun".
Five kinds of famous wines, each put into a large jar, a full ten kilograms of that kind.
"Haha, Guo Dutong, do you want to drink all the brothers here?"
Seeing so much wine, Lei Peng became excited.
There were eight large bowls, and Lu Guanying rushed to pat them open and filled them one by one.
"Come, it's a rare fate for us brothers to get together here. After drinking this bowl, you will win -"
Guo Mo first picked up a bowl of wine and drank it all in one gulp.
After eight people and eight bowls of wine, the atmosphere suddenly changed.
"Guo Dutong is really good at martial arts. If Qin read it right, this horse fighting skill shouldn't be Guo Dutong's strongest, right?"
Qin Ju sat diagonally across from Guo Mo, drank a bowl of wine, and started chatting.
"Hehe, to be honest, just to prepare for this 'martial arts competition', Guo Mo just sharpened his spear before the battle, and barely practiced bow and arrow and horse fighting skills for two months."
