Section 17 Feast of Celebration

Yuan Shao, who was far away in Youzhou, didn't know that his younger brother with low eyes and low skills was sailing away with the jade seal. At this moment, he was still immersed in the joy of destroying Gongsun Zhan. To this end, in order to celebrate the end of the two-year-long siege of the whole army, Yuan Shao specially held a banquet in the inner city of Gongsun Zan to invite a meritorious officer. Of course, Gongsun Zhan's inner city was actually burned down by him as early as when the city was broken, and it became a ruin. For this reason, Yuan Shao had to move the golden tent into this ruin, which was used as a temporary banquet hall. Although there are no pillars painted with gold and silver, and there is no spacious courtyard, just sitting and eating at the place where Gongsun Chan used to live is a symbol of victory. In addition, Yuan Shao has always paid attention to face, and the wine and food in the big tent, and the singing and dancing beauty are complete. Therefore, the scale of this banquet is no smaller than the banquet that Cai Ji participated in Yecheng and Xudu at the beginning.

However, since it is a celebration banquet, it is natural to sit in accordance with merit. The one with the most credit sat close to Yuan Shao, and the one with the little credit sat far away. It stands to reason that the general Koji Yi has been ordered by Yuan Shao to conquer Gongsun Chan since the Battle of Jieqiao in the second year of Chuping (191), and has experienced countless battles in the past seven years, and can be called the first hero of the destruction of Gongsun Zhan. However, that night, Lu Yi did not sit at the same table with Yuan Shao. And the one who replaced the position of the first hero of Koyi was Yu Ji, a Taoist priest who had previously opened an altar under Yijing City.

For most of the Yuan Shaobu civil and military forces present, Yu Ji can be regarded as a strange and familiar being. said that it was strange because he didn't know this white-bearded old man before Yi Jingcheng broke. It is said that it is familiar because anyone who has seen Yi Jing fall apart on that day will not forget the white-bearded old way. Although Yuan Shao gave Yu Ji an unusually generous treatment, Yu Ji himself was still dressed in a fairy robe at the moment, even if he drank wine, he did not get fishy, and he was really an old fairy who was full of food and drink.

After three rounds of drinking, Yuan Shao saw that the dishes in front of Yu Ji did not move, and couldn't help but open his mouth and ask why the old fairy didn't feast? Could it be that Shao was not well entertained? ”

"The general's banquet in Yijing today is really a grand event." Yu Ji first praised Yuan Shao, then pointed to the dish in front of him, and said with a meaningful smile, "It's just that although this dish is rich, it lacks a delicious dish." ”

"Oh? What kind of dishes are exactly? Yuan Shao paid for his own research, and he couldn't help but ask Yu Ji curiously.

"Of course, it's the fish belly. Sea bass. Ji Tan stroked his long beard and said.

The so-called yushimi is actually sashimi. Unlike the popular seafood sashimi in later generations, sashimi in the Han Dynasty was mainly based on freshwater fish. Sea bass inhabits the sea and also enters fresh water, making it an excellent ingredient for sashimi. Yuan Shao came from a famous family and the delicacy of natural sea bass, but there was no sea bass in the waters near Yijing. Yu Ji's proposal to eat sea bass at this time is undoubtedly an rude request. However, since the other party is an old immortal, it is normal for him to make some rude requests. Therefore, Yuan Shao, who was magnanimous and magnanimous, had no choice but to laugh and say, "Where does the perch come from the bitter cold land of Yijing?" If the old fairy loves the perch, Shao immediately sent someone to Yecheng to fetch live fish for the old fairy. ”

Who knew that Yu Ji waved his hand, shook his head and said that there is no need to work so hard, the old way has its own way of fishing. But I don't know if I can borrow a general's fishing rod and use a basin of gold to make a basin of water? ”

Yuan Shao'er heard Yu Ji say that he was borrowing a fishing rod and drawing water from a golden basin, and he couldn't help but think of various legendary fairy spells. So he didn't say a word, but turned around and ordered, "Someone come and go and get a fishing rod for the old fairy and fetch a basin of water." ”

After a while, two attendants, one with a fishing rod and the other with a golden basin filled with water, entered the tent at the same time. The civil and military bureaucrats, who had already been aroused by the dialogue between Yuan Shao and Yu Ji, immediately put down the wine cups and chopsticks in their hands, and raised their heads one by one to look curiously. Seeing that everyone's attention was attracted, Yu Ji immediately stood up leisurely, took the fishing rod from the attendant's hand, and checked the fishing rod and hook up and down. Then, in front of everyone's eyes, he suddenly picked up the long rod and threw it into the copper basin, and in an instant, a fresh fish leaped up from the water.

"Fish are live fish"

A chubby staff member pointed and exclaimed loudly. Yu Ji just smiled slightly, and took the fishing rod and presented the fish to Yuan Shao in front of the general, this perch? ”

Yuan Shao gasped, reached out and touched the fish that was still jumping around, and immediately nodded and said, "It's a perch, it's a perch." ”

And just when everyone was stunned by Yu Ji's empty-handed fishing, Cai Ji, who was the recommender, was eating side dishes by himself below. After all, in the TV and theater of the previous life, she had not seen this kind of magic show less. Thinking about it at this moment, the reason why Yu Ji is wearing a wide robe tonight is not to prepare for the performance. It's just that the original drama between Zuo Ci and Cao Cao was transferred to Yu Ji and Yuan Shao, and it really makes people feel a little funny when they look at it.

In fact, Cai Ji is not the only one who disdains Ji's little tricks in the big tent. Just as Yuan Shao praised the perch again and again, there was a sudden sound of a heavy cup shake at the banquet. Everyone couldn't help but follow the prestige, but when they saw a young man in armor, Huo Ran got up, he walked out of the big tent without looking back.

Good guy whose brat is so bullish. Cai Ji couldn't help but look at the young man's back curiously. At the same time, Lu Yi, who was sitting opposite Cai Ji, suddenly came out with a blue face and complained to Yuan Shao, "The dog is rude, and I ask the lord to surrender." ”

It turned out that the young man who left the table angrily was none other than Koji Yi's eldest son, Koji Yan. It seems that this kid is not angry with Yu Ji to take advantage of his father's military exploits, and he shows off his spells in front of everyone, so he left the table in an awkward manner. It's just that with Yuan Shao's strength, can he be thrown off by such a kid? Thinking of this, Cai Ji secretly turned his gaze to Yuan Shao.

I saw that Yuan Shao's expression did not change much on the surface at this time. On the contrary, he also walked down to help Koji Yi and comforted, "It's okay." It is not uncommon for children to get drunk. It is rare to be transferred by the gods for the monarchs today. It's better to be happy alone than to be happy, come and go, quickly go and give this fish to the heroes who broke the city. ”

After Yuan Shao's round, even if everyone present thought about it in their hearts, they had to put on a face as if nothing had happened. Therefore, when the chef put the good fish fillets in front of Yu Ji, Koji Yi, Wen Chou and other heroes who broke the city, the atmosphere of the scene became warm again.

This fish doesn't have parasites, does it? There are a lot of words on the no novel network - Cai Ji looked at the small piece of perch in front of him and secretly scolded himself. Although he didn't know that Yu Ji had raised this fish in the place before, seeing that the uncles around him looked like they were feasting, Cai Ji had to eat it with his eyes closed. However, not long after, when a group of young dancers entered the tent to perform, Cai Ji immediately got up and withdrew from the banquet on the grounds that he was too strong to drink.

A gust of night wind blew, and Cai Ji, who was sitting on horseback, suddenly felt refreshed and quick-witted. Thinking of the scene in the big tent just now, she couldn't help but turn around and open the conversation to Duan Emei and said, "Lord Duan Qi, this mansion hopes that you can stay by Yu Ji's side. ”

Duan Emei lightly pinched the horse's belly after hearing this, and walked side by side with Cai Ji, "Does the lord want Emei to spy on Yu Ji and prevent him from leaking gunpowder prescriptions?" ”

"Definitely." Cai Ji shook his head and analyzed, "If Yu Ji wants to be an 'immortal', he can't let people have the secret of his 'heaven and earth' technique. Therefore, the government is not worried about the leakage of gunpowder. ”

Duan Emei was puzzled, "Then what is the purpose of the lord to want Emei to stay by Yu Ji's side?" ”

Facing Duan Emei's question, Cai Ji turned his head and solemnly entrusted, "This government hopes that you can save people as much as possible under the guise of Yu Ji." ”

"Saving people? Who to save? Duan E frowned and asked.

"The people around Yuan Shao." Cai Ji said and set his eyes on the sky full of stars, imagining the account in the history books about Yuan Shao's persecution of his subordinates in the later period, and said to himself, "Yuan Shao is a man who is wide on the outside and jealous on the inside, and he is stubborn and self-serving. As his ambitions swelled day by day, he would have to have a gap with his subordinates and strategists in the future, and even take action to inflict harm. As for who can save and who can't, as the so-called generals are outside, the king's order is not subject to it. As soon as it is qiē, it is up to the Duan Qi master to make his own decisions. The government only does not want to see the righteous persecuted. ”

Cai Ji's words reminded Duan Emei of what happened to her father Duan Cheng back then. If there had been a prince like Cai Ji to help back then, Pingqiang's meritorious father would not have been framed to death by the likes of the Ten Standing Servants. Empathetic, Duan Emei immediately hugged her fists and said, "Rest assured, Emei will not disgrace her mission." ”

According to history, the generals and ministers of the Ministry of Liyi, Fu Zhu, and Tian Feng will all die of Yuan Shao's suspicion in the recent Yuan Cao War. In particular, Lu Yi was actually killed by Yuan Shao before Guandu, and there are few relevant accounts, only saying that "Black Mountain is flat, and righteousness is arrogant, Shao is very jealous, and he is afraid of it, and he is worried about his fierceness and repetition, so he summoned and killed him, and his people." "According to the previous table of Yuan Shao and Ko Yi, there is a certain gap between the two. But it is still a mystery to be the reason why Yuan Shao was busy killing the generals under his tent before the battle in Guandu.

As far as Cai Ji's position is concerned, of course, she wants to rescue and recruit these celebrities. It's just that now history has changed in her hands, and she can no longer follow historical events while taking the opportunity to poach people as before. I don't have the energy to personally inquire about every move that happened in Yecheng. So she urgently needs a trustworthy person to lurk by Yuan Shao's side to pay attention to this matter. Duan Emei is worthy of this position both in terms of experience and ability. At this moment, in the face of the other party's sworn reply, Cai Ji immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said like this, this government can return to Donglai with confidence. ”

But he never thought that Duan Emei would jokingly when he saw this, "It is said that the lord is good at collecting powerful generals and celebrities." Today's results are well deserved. ”

"Huh?"

Cai Ji looked back and blinked in confusion. Duan Emei raised her finger and counted them one by one, "General Ziyi, Fengxiao, General Wenyuan, Wenhe, and General Yiyi can also be counted." It was precisely because everyone understood this that General Wen Yuan brought back the Black Mountain Thieves in the canyon, and Shi Yuan also deliberately set up a secret post outside the city to catch a white horse general. ”

was reminded by Duan E's eyebrows, and Cai Ji immediately thought that there were two interesting captives in the camp. The Montenegrin thief brought back by Zhang Liao was Du Chang, the vanguard of the Montenegrin Army. Although I had a slight injury to my foot, I was fortunate not to be crippled. In addition, with his relationship with Zhang Yan, he may also be able to use it as a pawn to recruit the Montenegrin Army in the future. And the military general captured by Pang Tong is even more interesting, not only did he break out of Yijing City single-handedly, but he also carried a doll on his body. As soon as Cai Ji heard Pang Tong's report on the matter, he secretly slandered to himself, "This is not Changban Slope."

However, in the past two days, Cai Ji has been busy dealing with the aftermath of entering the city under the orders of Yuan Shao, and he really has no time to deal with the newly captured prisoners. Speaking of which, the root of this matter is still on Cai Ji. If it weren't for Cai Ji's miracle of "the heavens falling apart" at the north gate of Yijing that day, Yuan Shaojun would not have fallen into a frenzy that was difficult to control, so that there would be a state of disorganization and indiscipline that did not obey orders. Many soldiers and horses even fought each other for the spoils of war. And Yuan Shao said that whoever enters the inner city of Yijing, the treasures and beauties of the inner city will belong to whomever they want. But when he saw the ransacked inner city, he couldn't help but be furious. At this time, Cai Jibu, who had not yet been involved in the massacre, became a vital force to maintain military discipline. For this reason, Cai Ji has not cut off people's heads in the past two days. Among them, the most widely spread is the North Gate Slash.

It is said that on that day, Cai Ji took Zhang Liao and others to inspect all the way to the north gate, but saw a big man with a head around his waist, brocade wrapped around his body, a sack full of booty in his hand, and a group of soldiers swaggering through the market. Cai Ji happened to catch a glimpse of the head of the woman in the head of the big man's waist. So he asked people to intercept the big man and ask him. But he never thought that the big man was angry at Cai Ji and quibbled, "Men should kill people......" As a result, before the guy finished speaking, Zhang Liao, who was standing behind Cai Ji, drew a knife and made this person as tall as Cai Ji. And in the face of such a bloody scene, Cai Ji didn't even blink his eyes and directly ordered someone to hang the head of this guy to the public.

Afterwards, someone also reminded Cai Ji that the person who was beheaded by Zhang Liao was a warrior under Wen Chou's tent, but Cai Ji seemed disdainful of this. In her opinion, there are many people with high military strength in this era. And those who only know how to use force and do not know self-control are no different from wild dogs on the street. It is precisely because of her attitude that some generals who originally didn't take her seriously were a little more jealous. And the soldiers under Yuan Shao's subordinates were even more silent about the female envoy in charge of military discipline.

Of course, Cai Ji and Duan Emei are running side by side at this time, so they are naturally a little more daughter-in-law. Hearing the other party mention the captive, she couldn't help but ask curiously, has Lord Duan Qi seen the white horse general? ”

"It's a beautiful man. Lord. Duan Emei described in her unique tone, "What's more, the man with the doll can't be bad." ”

"It's suspicious because of the child." Cai Ji lowered his head and pondered. In fact, from Pang Tong's report, Cai Ji had already learned that the general's mount was branded with the logo of the Gongsun family, and it was obviously closely related to Gongsun Zhan. Therefore, although Cai Ji has not seen each other yet, he still instructed his subordinates to treat adults and children with courtesy, and keep the matter secret from the outside world.

"Then why don't you go and ask the other party and the child's identity in person?" Duan E's eyebrows looked at Cai Jijian with interest.

"Now? The smell of alcohol in this house is not suitable for recruitment. Cai Ji waved his hand and smiled bitterly and rejected Duan E's eyebrows.

"So whatever." Duan Emei threw a wink at Cai Ji and said, "Anyway, the lord is the kind of person who can't bear to look at Meilangjun's head even if he is drunk." ”

In response to Duan Emei's ridicule, Cai Ji not only continued to smile bitterly, but also secretly calculated in his heart how to see the white horse general tomorrow.

I have something to do today, so I'll send a new chapter first. Or the old update. In other words, Brother Zilong's popularity is really high~~~
