387: You always come up with new ideas for me.

“No! Lin Yue suddenly looked down at his feet. He had clearly poured it all into his sleeve, so why was there some under his feet too?

He then looked at She Jian beside him, whose eyes were darting around, looking a bit embarrassed, and instantly understood!

This scoundrel, he actually poured it all under my chair!

He truly lives up to his reputation as a scoundrel!

Lin Yue then sighed. Everyone talked about ‘muscle-headed soldiers,’ but ever since Lin Yue joined the Great Wall Legion, he hadn’t met a single foolish one!

Each person seemed to have eight hundred tricks up their sleeve!

No, She Jian wasn't like that; She Jian must have had eight hundred and one!

She Jian’s face also flushed slightly upon hearing this. To cover his embarrassment, he immediately shouted, “Someone, bring a jar of wine for each of these two tables!”

Soon, someone brought a jar of wine for each of the Generals.

She Jian Domineeringly lift the altar mouth, Said to the generals: “ This jar of wine, No one can slip, Drink it all for me!”

“Damn it, what if you yourself cheat, you rascal? I think we need to find someone to watch over us, and it has to be someone unrelated to us, otherwise, it’s easy to cheat!” Wang Da Tou said.

“Good idea!” the Generals responded.

However, since they couldn’t find anyone related to the Generals, the only one who didn’t drink, Yang Dengshan, was excluded. And Wang Zhi, whom everyone considered the most impartial, probably drank the most that night.

So, who should they find?

Just as everyone was wondering, Lin Yue noticed the simpleton constantly moving through the crowd, helping out, and suddenly smiled, “Simpleton, come here!”

The Simpleton smiled foolishly and walked over.

Lin Yue put his arm around the Simpleton’s shoulder and said to everyone, “This is the Village Guardian of my Fief! His name is Simpleton. He’s usually the most enthusiastic. Let him supervise the drinking this time!”

“What is a Village Guardian?” Wang Zhi suddenly asked.

“It’s someone who always stays in the village, never leaves, and is usually the most enthusiastic to help with anything in the village!” Lin Yue explained with a smile.

The Simpleton thought carefully for a moment, then said, “No, Simpleton has been in the village for twenty years, how come Simpleton has never seen the kind of person you’re talking about, Master?”

“Hahahaha!” The Generals reacted at this moment and burst out laughing.

Lin Yue also laughed, then put his arm around the Simpleton and said, “Simpleton, we each have a jar of wine. You watch to see if anyone tries to cheat or secretly throws it away if they can’t drink it.”

“Simpleton understands!” The Simpleton nodded, then stared intently at the Generals with a nervous expression!

Seeing this, the Generals waved their hands and flicked off the wine lids, and the aroma of wine immediately filled the air.

“To Brothers Pan Feng and A Rong! May they be forever united in heart and have a hundred years of happiness!

Bottoms up!”

Then She Jian was the first to raise his wine jar and guzzle it down, head tilted back!

Following closely, all the Generals emulated him. This time, under the Simpleton’s watchful eye, no one dared to cheat anymore!

Gulp, gulp!

Lin Yue watched Wang Zhi’s face grow paler with each drink, and Wang Da Tou’s belly had swelled like a ball. Li Siye was already bare-chested, raising a jar of wine and tilting his head back to pour it down; the most terrifying thing was that his throat didn’t seem to move, it just went straight down!

Soon the wine in the jar was at the bottom!

Seeing this, Lin Yue also tilted his head back and drank it down, chugging it in one go. Even though his stomach was uncomfortably bloated, he still managed to swallow it with difficulty, finally inverting the jar in mid-air!

“Refreshing!”

All the Generals made the same motion and then burst into laughter!

But as Aruhan laughed, he suddenly retched and then vomited into the air!

Like a human fountain!

Rain flying everywhere!

Fortunately, the Generals were agile and all dodged out of the way immediately!

Wang Da Tou laughed heartily at the sight, but soon after, the smell spread!

“Ugh!”

“Ugh!”

“Ugh!”

The Generals could initially suppress it, but this thing was like an infection; they all started to vomit uncontrollably!

Lin Yue watched the Generals vomit, and his stomach also churned violently. Finally, he couldn’t control it and it erupted like a floodgate opening, gushing out all at once!

He then fell to the ground, the surrounding noise gradually diminished, and a brilliant starry sky appeared before him.

“Such a beautiful starry sky…” Lin Yue said with a smile on his lips, then closed his eyes.

It wasn’t until many years later that Lin Yue suddenly realized that this day was the happiest day of his life,

But there would never be another time like it… The sky was already bright, and light streamed into the room.

“Water, water!” Lin Yue slowly opened his eyes, feeling as if his throat was on fire.

Soon, a pot of water appeared before Lin Yue, and he drank directly from the spout.

Only when the pot of water was empty did Lin Yue recover.

He then looked to the side and saw a woman standing by his bed, her head slightly bowed.

“Who are you?” Lin Yue asked curiously. Was he dreaming?

“Servant Yi He,” the woman bowed gracefully.

Lin Yue looked at her appearance and said, “Raise your head.”

Yi He shyly raised her head, her eyes holding a hint of alluring shyness.

Hmm, a charming beauty.

Lin Yue thought to himself, then said to her, “Did Feng Cai arrange for you to come?”

“Yes, Servant was ordered by City Lord Feng to come and serve Master,” Yi He said.

“Call Feng Cai over for me,” Lin Yue said in a deep voice.

“Yes, Master,” Yi He bowed gracefully, then walked out.

“Bang.”

The door gently closed. Lin Yue watched her retreating figure, silently swallowing his saliva.

She swayed even more than Xia Qing and Xia Lian.

Wasn't this Feng Cai forcing him to make a mistake!

He'd have to have a good talk with him when he arrived!

Speak of Cao Cao and he shall arrive. Feng Cai knocked and entered the room.

“Master, are you satisfied?” Feng Cai’s old, weathered face smiled.

Lin Yue thought to himself that he didn't need anyone to take care of him, and besides, he was about to go to Xianyang. Wasn't Feng Cai just wasting money? So he feigned displeasure:

“Feng Cai, I really must have a good talk with you! You need to focus your mind on important matters, not spend all day thinking about…”

“Knock, knock, knock…”

Feng Cai looked back, then said to Lin Yue, “Master, the freshly cooked millet porridge is ready. Would you like to eat first?”

“That would be good,” Lin Yue nodded. His stomach felt uncomfortable, so some millet porridge would be soothing.

“Come in.”

Feng Cai gently clapped his hands, and Yi He returned, carrying a bowl of millet porridge and several small bowls of plain vegetables as she walked in.

“Yi He, could you please trouble you to get a bowl for Feng Cai as well? We’ll eat together,” Lin Yue said.

“This old man thanks Master!” Feng Cai’s smile grew even brighter upon hearing this.

“Yes, Master,” the woman replied, then bit her lip and said, “Master, Servant’s name is Yi Qian…”

“Okay, I know, Yi Qian,” Lin Yue nodded, but then suddenly looked up: “Yi Qian? Was that Yi He just now…?”

“That was Servant’s elder sister,” Yi He said, then bowed, seemingly fleeing as she went to serve porridge for Feng Cai.

“Oh, by the way, Master, what were you just saying you wanted to have a good talk about?” Feng Cai asked.

Lin Yue’s expression was a bit awkward, but then he smiled and said to Feng Cai:

“You, you always come up with new tricks for me!”

“Hehe, Master is joking. This old man just saw that the two sisters were pitiful, sold to such a place at a young age, frightened like little kittens.

It just so happens that Master is being transferred to Xianyang, and this old man cannot serve you personally. After much thought, this old man felt compassion and brought them to the Earls Mansion, thinking they could serve you. Otherwise, these two sisters might suffer greatly in that place in the future!

Now it’s perfect; Master has someone to take care of you, and these two sisters have escaped their suffering. Master, just consider it a good deed.” Feng Cai smiled.

“Alright, but don’t let it happen again,” Lin Yue said with a smile, feeling happy for having saved two young girls.

“Yes, Master!” Feng Cai cupped his hands and smiled.
