Chapter 294:-for-tat
The Drunkard Pavilion is known as the first pavilion in the world.
But for hundreds of years, countless people who have come to Wangji to see the majesty of this pavilion will be disappointed by the small two-story building in front of them.
There is no carved railing, no famous calligraphy and painting, and there is no majestic momentum, and some are just an ancient wooden building.
The reason why this pavilion is so famous is entirely because Yao Jun once lived here and is famous all over the world. But as for why Yao Jun didn't live in the inner city palace separated by a wall, no one knew the reason, and there was no conclusion.
However, when Yao Jun drove the crane to the west, this place was listed as a forbidden place by the Son of Heaven, and he would meet with the princes of other countries in this pavilion whenever he met the alliance. This is done to commemorate Yao Jun with the princes, and to show the majesty of the king's grace and flattery to the princes.
But since the decline of the Son of Heaven, this place has not been opened for a long time, but this two-story pavilion has been carefully cared for by the Zhou royal family because of its unparalleled sacredness.
Brick by brick, wood by rafter, they have always maintained the appearance of when Yao Jun lived.
The four of them paced into the drunkard pavilion with the sound of the piano coming from the pavilion, and then under the guidance of a group of beautiful maids who slowly greeted them, they bypassed a huge jade screen and saw a small hall full of guests.
Several dancers in the hall danced to the sound of the piano, and the circle around the hall was full of nobles in brocade clothes. When the four of them entered the hall, they saw that the eyes of everyone in the hall also looked at the four of them.
The people sitting in the hall were looking at Zhao Zhihai and the four of them, and the four of them were also observing the people in the hall.
Zhao Zhihai saw that there were three people sitting in the hall, one fat, one thin, and one young. Among them, the chubby and somewhat funny middle-aged man was smiling at himself, and the young beautiful man who looked to be in his twenties was also carefully examining himself.
The thin-faced yellow-clothed old man on the left looked a little gloomy in his direction.
Looking to the side again, I saw that the protagonist of the banquet, the heroic and sassy princess Misi, was sitting on the right side of Sangu, looking at the four of them with a smile, and was about to get up to greet them.
But at this moment, a gloomy voice suddenly sounded in the silent hall, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Lord Zhao can make us wait for a long time, I don't know if this Wang Ji's woman is amorous and makes Lord Zhao forget to go to the appointment, or I think that our status is low and can't get into the eyes of Lord Zhao, so I deliberately came to the finale."
Originally, Zhao Zhihai was about to speak to the three orphans at the head of the hall and the host of this banquet, Mi Chunxi, Shili, but when he suddenly heard this, his face changed slightly, but in an instant, he returned to normal.
At today's banquet, half a day had already passed when Mi Chunxi invited them, so it was already very fast to be able to rush to the Drunkard Pavilion at this moment. And even if he complains and blames, it should be the host of the banquet, even if the old man in yellow is one of the three orphans, he is not qualified to accuse himself. It seems that he wanted to deliberately humiliate himself.
Zhao Zhihai laughed dryly, and then bowed to the old man in yellow who spoke, and said, "Who should I be, it turned out to be Lord Shaobao."
I haven't seen Lord Shaobao for many years, and it seems that his demeanor is still the same. Zhao congratulated Master Shaobao. ”
The old man saw that Zhao Zhihai's sarcasm at himself seemed to dare to be angry and dare not speak, and immediately said proudly: "Back then, this Shaobao and the first young master came forward to dissuade Lord Zhao from coming out
The soldiers went to war with the Qi State, but Lord Zhao didn't seem to take me, the young protector, in his eyes. Now that your Qin Kingdom has fallen, can you remember the words of the old man? ”
Zhao Zhihai obviously knew that this young guard Ji Ce would ask this question, but he did not panic but put down his hand behind him, sighed on his back and said:
"The things of the year are very clear, my daughter was kidnapped by Qi Jun and killed in the Qi Palace, how can Zhao, a father, not be the master of his daughter, be called a human being.
Now that Lord Shaobao has spoken and asked, then Zhao also wants to ask Lord Shaobao, if the only daughter of the adult is captured and killed by others, will Lord Shaobao swallow his anger? ”
After Ji Ce heard Zhao Zhihai's words, he was slightly stunned and immediately became angry, he just remembered that Zhao Zhihai had never given him face, and wanted to humiliate him in public today, but he didn't expect that Zhao Zhihai completely ignored the fact that he was asking for others today and spoke against himself.
Therefore, Ji Ce immediately wanted to get up and refute, but he heard Zhao Zhihai raise his hand and continue: "Lord Shaobao once said that if I Qin State is exhausted, then there will be a day of destruction.
Zhao remembered this sentence, but today I won't say whether my Qin State has fallen, even if it falls, is it just like Lord Shaobao said, is it because of the reckless use of force? ”
After Zhao Zhihai finished speaking, he suddenly changed his cold appearance and looked around, and then he glanced at Yu Lihua and continued to say solemnly:
"If Lord Shaobao thinks that my Great Qin is innocent of death, and my Qin State is dead by reckless soldiers, then we don't come to today's banquet. lest we, the generals of the country, defile the Yaxing of all the great adults. ”
After finishing speaking, Zhao Zhihai was about to turn around and leave, but at this time, Lu Lihua suddenly said in a loud voice: "Lord Zhao, slow down." ”
Zhao Zhihai stopped, turned his head to look at Zhu Lihua, and saw Zhu Lihua say respectfully to himself: "My lord, isn't it true that my Qin soldiers will die innocently, and my Great Qin will die by Wu Wu at his own end?"
If so, I'm the first to disagree! Gu Zaizuka would never approve of such a notoriety! ”
After Lihua finished speaking, he suddenly heard a sound of rustling in the hall, and it turned out that some people in the countries who had heard of the name of Lihua were discussing.
At the beginning, the fact that Lu Lihua was bloodless from the hands of Qi State to Hedong County had already made him famous, so people with a heart had already secretly investigated this suddenly famous general of the Qin State.
At this time, as soon as he heard that the young general sitting on the bamboo chair was Zhu Lihua, all the people who knew his details were surprised and introduced this rising star to the people next to him.
Of course, Lu Lihua didn't know what the people in the hall thought, he just saw that he had successfully attracted everyone's attention, and suddenly glanced at Xiao Wenkao, who was sitting opposite Mi Chunxi, and then shouted to everyone in the hall:
"Lihua is a military general, so he won't say a lot of useless things.
Half a year ago, the 120,000 Rong army wanted to occupy the Huangtian Ferry and join the Qi Beirong army through Mo County, but was defeated by our Qin army in Hexi County. Now the 300,000 Rong army has been blocked outside the city of Huangyin by our Qin army for half a year, although Huangyin is crumbling, but under the desperate resistance of our Qin army, they still can't advance a bit.
Originally, I thought that the bloody battle of my Great Qin soldiers would bring you peace at the moment, and even if you didn't appreciate it, you wouldn't speak ill of each other.
But today, I suddenly found that all of you don't seem to think that my Lihua is a meritorious general, and my Qin army is a meritorious soldier, but
It is chilling to satirize my Qin army's reckless military force.
If you think that I am troublesome, that my Qin army is self-inflicted, and that the blood of the soldiers and people of my Qin State is smelly.
Then I, Lihua, will lead all the soldiers and horses of the Qin State to retreat to Jiangcheng this time, and be a small state that is harmless to you in a safe corner.
As for whether Huang Yin can hold it or not, you adults can discuss it slowly. ”
After saying that, he turned to Zhao Zhihai and Gu Daoyuan and said solemnly: "The two adults have also seen that my sons and daughters have no plans to stop the Rong people from being killed and injured all these years, and today they originally wanted to use this banquet to discuss the major events of resisting the Rong with other countries, but they were so slandered and insulted.
Therefore, Li Hua simply became a disobedient and disrespectful general today, and asked my sons and daughters to withdraw from Huangyin and save their lives.
If the two adults don't think I'm domineering, please return to Jiangcheng with me, if the two adults blame me for not distinguishing between dignity and humility, then today I will break with the world and be a lonely minister! ”
After finishing speaking, Zhu Lihua suddenly took out the sword at his waist and was about to slash at the candlestick in front of him.
But at this moment, Zhu Lihua's arm was grabbed by Gu Daoyuan beside him, and Zhu Lihua looked at Gu Daoyuan with a hideous face, only to see Gu Daoyuan said with a panicked face: "General Lili, why is this so!" Does the general want to abandon those sons and daughters who died for the world for the sake of the words of others? Does the general really think that the world is full of blind people and wants to give up all the glory of his ancestors? ”
I saw Gu Daoyuan grab Zhu Lihua's arm and shout, and then Luo Lihua put down the sword in his hand.
And the more than ten Chu soldiers who rushed in when they heard the sound of the sword, under the leadership of the general surnamed Zuo, did not know what was going on for a while, and they were all stunned on the ground.
The stunned nobles in the pavilion came to their senses at this time, and several of them secretly looked at Shaobao Jice with embarrassed faces, and cursed in their hearts.
It's not that they think that Zhu Lihua's words are reasonable, but they think that Ji Ce is really an idiot for provoking such a domineering general.
If Lihua really gave up Huangyin, then the next ones to bear the front of the Rong army would be the nations.
Fang Cai Lihua also said that there were 300,000 Rong people outside Huangyin City.
Only 20,000 Rong troops have stirred up half of the Qi country to fall, and what kind of consequences will be brought about by those 300,000 people rushing out of Huangyin, everyone dare not think about it.
Moreover, they also had a trace of jealousy about the fact that Lu Lihua defeated the 120,000 Rong army in Hexi and resisted the 300,000 Rong army alone in Huangyin. Even if Zhu Lihua's words were exaggerated, he did resist the momentum of the Rong people's eastward advance.
At this time, everyone in the cabinet had their own thoughts, but most of them were dissatisfied with Ji Ce, and Ji Ce also knew that he had stabbed the basket, but he silently bowed his head and didn't dare to make a sound, where was there still a little bit of prestige.
In fact, just after he felt that the dream of the people of the Qin State to ask for something that he would not dare to make trouble was shattered, suddenly he seemed to have returned to the past time when he was swallowing his anger.
Then he skillfully took a deep breath in his heart, and began to settle down again after a long absence.
The people in the hall are all noble ministers of the world, and many of them have naturally seen Ji Ce's original appearance, and when they saw Ji Ce's familiar appearance at this time, everyone couldn't help but sigh, it seems that even if the country of Qin is destroyed, it still does not change the true nature of the domineering.
