Chapter Ninety-Three: The Hongmen Banquet

Xiangyang.

Sun Ce carried a group of generals, and the 150,000 soldiers and horses behind him were mighty, and this terrifying formation made the people of the world tremble.

"Sun Ce is back!" On the dragon chair, Liu Xie clenched his fists, and a solemn look appeared between his heroic eyebrows.

Next to Liu Xie, a fat and thin, plump and delicate concubine is the daughter of Dong Cheng. Now he is a nobleman.

Dong Guiren grabbed Liu Xie's hand and said, "Your Majesty, the hundred officials are already dressed in plain clothes and went to the Xiangyang City Gate to greet the prime minister, and my father also said that Your Majesty is invited to bend down and come in person." ”

"Yes, I will also prepare a plain dress for me, and I will give my condolences to the prime minister."

The gate of Xiangyang City.

Yang Biao came to Dong Cheng's side, and asked softly with a natural expression, "Is the general ready!" ”

Dong Cheng shook his head, "I never thought that Sun Ce would attack Yuan Shu so quickly, and the strategy is still being discussed!" ”

Yang Biao's eyes shrank, and his tone couldn't help but be stern, "If today's son urgently needs us and other ministers, hasn't this strategy been planned a long time ago, why hasn't it been prepared to succeed?" ”

Dong Cheng's eyes quickly scanned the surroundings, "Don't be anxious, if you want to subdue the Han family, it is not easy to get rid of thieves like Sun Ce!" We've been short on timing in our plans, and I've trained quite a few killers! ”

"Yes......" Yang Biao took a deep breath.

Dong Cheng looked in front of him and said softly, "It's here!" ”

Heavy footsteps shook the earth, and a lot of sand and dust slightly left the ground, this is an army of 150,000!

A group of loyal old ministers of the Han family looked at the person who was the leader, and the anger in their hearts swelled underneath, but there was no show on their faces.

The rest of the ministers were respectful!

As soon as Sun Ce entered the city, the cheers immediately rang out, loud and long!

"Congratulations to the prime minister on his victory and eradication of the puppet emperor Yuan Shu for the Han Dynasty!"

"The prime minister has no future!"

"The prime minister has no future!"

"The prime minister has no future!"

…………

Sun Ce sat on a horse overlooking the hundred officials, Dong Cheng and a group of Hanchen stood in the left column, in front of the city gate, and the rest of the Sun clan stood in the right column.

All the officials were dressed in plain clothes, each with a respectful look on their faces, and the people in Xiangyang City were also crowded on both sides of the street.

Wanting to look at the young prime minister, the man envied his heroic demeanor, and the woman was intoxicated.

"The prime minister's great victory, all the officials congratulate the prime minister in their hearts!" Dong Cheng walked out of the column and said respectfully.

Sun Ce glanced at Dong Cheng, smiled, and said to Cheng Pu, "Go and order the army to be stationed outside the city, and after rewarding them, tell them to return to the cities to garrison." ”

Dong Cheng would never have expected that the edict planned by himself and the hundred officials would have been revealed without revealing a little bit of his feet, and Jiang asked and Sun Ce all knew about it.

And Sun Ce already knew about Liu Xie's edict.

Although many of these Hanchen were still involved, he only knew that a few people, if they wanted to catch a bigger fish, they couldn't tear their faces now.

"General Wei was able to defend Xiangyang City and protect the safety of the Son of Heaven in my absence, and he was also loyal to the Han Dynasty, and he also worked hard!"

"Thank you for your kind words."

"The Son of Heaven has arrived!"

Sun Ce turned over and dismounted, and the rest of the hundred officials knelt on the ground, "Ministers greet Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty!" ”

Liu Xie sat in his own dragon chariot and phoenix, wearing plain clothes, and came to Sun Ce's approach, Sun Ce saluted and said, "The minister greets Your Majesty, I never thought that the minister would disturb the holy car and let His Majesty come in person, this minister's sin!" ”

"Aiqing has worked hard this time, and what is the crime of removing Yuan Shu, the puppet emperor, for me? I can't even be happy," Liu Xie took Sun Ce's hand, looking like a family, and said with a light smile, "It's just a pity that the former Prime Minister Sun Aiqing, I have already buried Aiqing with a state funeral, and I have specially crowned the Marquis of Wu, and the ten thousand households in the city." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your great kindness!"

"Your Majesty, the minister wants to go and see my father."

"Aiqing has worked hard these days, so I won't delay Aiqing, Aiqing, please."

"Everyone, please be even!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Zhou Yu glanced at Liu Xie slightly, withdrew his gaze, and left the place behind Sun Ce.

Sun Ce Mansion.

"My husband has made such a great contribution this time, why is he so sad when he comes back, is there something wrong with him?"

The woman's face is delicate and elegant, and her smile is full of tranquility, like a summer tea, which is elegant and moisturizing.

Cai Zhaoji rubbed Sun Ce's shoulder, Sun Ce's face softened a lot, and grabbed Zhaoji's hand, "Will my mother be okay when I'm away?" ”

"Naturally, I didn't eat much every day a few days ago, but now it's getting better, and Zhongmou often accompanies his mother." Cai Yan said.

Sun Ce pulled Cai Yan into his arms, "That's good, I haven't mourned for my father, can my mother be blamed?" ”

"No, my mother knows the reason for this, not to mention that this is a hard-won world for my father, if my father's inheritance is lost because of mourning, it really hurts my mother's heart."

Sun Ce smiled and said, "You are always like this, so it will comfort people." ”

Cai Yan smiled and got up from Sun Ce's arms, "I created a piece of music today, do you want to hear it?" ”

"Maybe it will relieve me?"

"Nature."

The Mansion of LΓΌmont.

Zhou Yu took a sip of wine, took the piano on the side, played the piano lightly, and the sound was in his ears, while Lu Meng drank in a sip, looking at the other two seats from time to time, a little uncomfortable.

"What is disturbing Ziming's heart?" Zhou Yu stopped stroking the qin and asked.

Lu Meng put down the wine glass and sighed, "I just feel a little empty, every time I won a big victory in the past, the four of us got together to drink and have fun, you stroked the qin, Chang Su wrote poems, and Bo Fu occasionally sang along with the lyrics, but now it is a little empty." ”

Zhou Yu's eyes were full of peace, "Bo Fu has become the prime minister this time, and many major events in the DPRK and China have not yet been dealt with, so naturally there is no free time, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to have time in the future, as for Chang Su, maybe wait a few days, and Bo Fu will be transferred back to him." ”

Lu Meng shook his head and smiled, "The four of us swore together in the past, and we all had our own wishes in our hearts, and we thought that we could be together for our ideals and parallels, confidants for life, and friends for life, but now it seems that this is too extravagant hope." ”

Zhou Yu stood up and said in a trance, "It is precisely because I have my own wishes in my heart that this situation will occur, Bo Fu did not become a general, but became the prime minister, you and I have also become important ministers in the court today, and we are no longer the ignorant young man like back then." ”

"Confidant, is to go through the polishing of time, true friends, never because of the distance and estranged relationship, nor because of the status of the estranged, just like the prince Dan and Jing Ke, the former is the prince, but the latter is a cloth cloth, but the friendship between the two is enough to make Jing Ke sacrifice his life for righteousness."

Lu Meng drank the wine a little smoothly in his heart, "Regarding the matter above the letter, you and Bo Fu have a countermeasure?" ”

Zhou Yu nodded, "All schemes will have flaws, and there is no perfect plan in the world." The people on the edict set up this bureau, they are the people who set up the bureau, but they are also the people in the bureau. ”

"Don't be so twisted and turned, I listen to my brain hurt," Lu Meng frowned, "You just tell me how to do it?" ”

Zhou Yu glanced at Lu Meng and didn't speak, Lu Meng raised his eyebrows, "Hey, don't hide it from me!" ”

"No," Zhou Yu said, "set up a Hongmen banquet and invite you to the urn." ”

Prime Minister's Office.

Sun Ce reviewed the recital, "You said that the Son of Heaven wants to hold a celebration banquet for me?" ”

"Yes, the prime minister, in addition to Yuan Shu's merits, caused a sensation in the government and the opposition, many ministers looked at the prime minister as young, and they despised the prime minister in their hearts, and after this war, the minister only had admiration."

Sun Ce put the recital table aside, "Where is the Son of Heaven going to hold a celebration banquet for me?" ”

Yang Biao said respectfully, "Prime Minister, in recent days, there are mountain people in the Perfume River who have witnessed the appearance of auspicious beasts here, carrying colorful springs, and now it is gradually approaching the summer season. ”

"When is the celebration feast?"

"In order to show the prestige of the prime minister, the Son of Heaven suggested that the sooner the better."

Cheng Pu walked out of the queue and said, "Prime Minister, the new funeral of the Marquis of Guanwu has not been three years old, and he should be filial to refuse the kindness of the Son of Heaven with such a heavy banquet. ”

Zu Mao said: "What General Cheng Pu said is extremely true, but the prime minister held a banquet during his father's funeral, and in the eyes of the world, he fell back to a disloyal and unfilial mouth!" ”

Sun Ce looked at Yang Biao, "As the generals said, this banquet may only allow the ministers to live up to the good intentions of the Son of Heaven." ”

Yang Biao frowned slightly, and behind him, Sima Fang came out and said, "Tell the prime minister, there is an ancient saying that there are two things, filial piety and loyalty, this banquet can be simply arranged, only a small number of important ministers in the court, one is not against filial piety, and the other is not against loyalty." ”

Yang Biao looked back slightly and nodded to Sima Fang, who just saluted Sun Ce with a normal expression.

"According to what Sima Lang said, he will indeed not disappoint the Son of Heaven and his father."

Gu Yong opened his mouth and said, "Sima Fang, Yang Biao, I don't understand, in the past, when Guanwu Hou was alive, he held many opposing opinions during deliberations, why is he so attentive to the prime minister today?" ”

Yang Biao said: "The prime minister has made great achievements for His Majesty to get rid of the puppet emperor Yuan Shu, which makes us happy and convinced, although there is nothing wrong with touting the prime minister?" ”

Zhu Zhi sneered: "I think there are probably things that are not humane here!" ”

Zhou Yu, who was standing in front of the ministers, was wearing an official uniform and holding a board in his hand and did not speak, Sun Ce looked at Zhou Yu slightly, and Zhou Yu nodded tacitly.

Sun Ce nodded after understanding, "Don't say that it is the honor of the courtiers for the Son of Heaven to set up a banquet for the ministers, since the Son of Heaven has a heart, how can the ministers live up to the good intentions of the Son of Heaven!" ”

"Please wait for me to tell Your Majesty that the banquet will be held the day after tomorrow."

"The minister commands."

Dong Chengfu.

Dong Cheng looked at Yang Biao excitedly in his heart, "He really wants to participate in the banquet set up by the Son of Heaven?!" ”

Yang Biao nodded, "Sun Ce has agreed, and said that he will go to the Perfume River with the Son of Heaven the day after tomorrow." ”

"Great! The Perfume River is densely forested, and no matter how many swords and axes are ambushed, they will not be easily seen, so that our great cause is just around the corner! Wang Zifu said excitedly.

Sima Fang frowned, and said thoughtfully, "But although Sun Ce is very powerful, there is no shortage of strategists around him, if he sees any clues, won't he take precautions?" ”

Wu Shuo shook his head, "We have been in this situation for a long time, and it is impossible for ordinary people to know about it, and this time it is just a feint attack on the Perfume River!" ”

"Feint?" One comes

Dong Cheng nodded, "Perfume River is suitable for assassination here, everyone can see this, even if Sun Ce is not sure that this is the Hongmen Banquet, he will definitely bring his trusted generals to go at that time, if he misses, it will definitely be a catastrophe!" ”

Yang Biao looked at Dong Cheng, and Dong Cheng said, "We still have the main attack, if we fail to assassinate in the Perfume River, we will definitely be arrested by Sun Ce, at this time, where do you say Sun Ce will go?" ”

"Enter the palace and ask the Son of Heaven for an explanation," Yang Biao frowned, "So it seems that once we don't succeed, the Son of Heaven may be in danger of his life!" ”

"Taiwei Yang is too worried," Dong Cheng smiled and said, "Sun Ce's entry into the palace is the real main attack!" ”

"Where to start? Is General Dong trying to put the Son of Heaven in danger? ”

Dong Cheng said confidently, "If our assassination in the Perfume River is successful, it is naturally a good thing, and if Sun Ce finds out, Sun Ce will definitely think that our operation has failed, then he will lose his defense, and at this time, I have already laid a heavy ambush on the way into the palace!" ”

"As long as Sun Ce enters the palace, he will be shot by the heavy soldiers arranged for negligence!"

Sun Ce's mansion.

"Without exception, it's the same as what Gong Jin said, this is the Hongmen Banquet." Sun Ce said lightly.

Zhou Yu nodded expressionlessly and said, "Who people will you take tomorrow?" ”

"Does Gong Jin have a recommendation?"

"Gan Ning and Zhou Tai's second general," Zhou Yu said, "Gan Ning has a resolute temperament, if there is really something to do, he will do it immediately without prompting, and Zhou Tai is calm, Chang Su said that this person is very good at protecting the master, and he can be used by the prime minister." ”

Sun Ce nodded.

Zhou Yu asked, "When is the prime minister going to summon Changsu back to Xiangyang?" ”

Sun Ce's face flashed slightly, "After I think about it, I will naturally arrange for Changsu to return to Xiangyang, and Gongjin won't ask more." ”

Fuchun, as Jiang Wen's hometown, the customs here are very clear.

In the small mountain village, the village chief happily set up a banquet, and praised Jiang Wen again and again, although he didn't even know what Jiang Wen looked like before.

"My young lady, this place is really not for people!" Xiao Shu looked at the red bumps on her hands, "Look at the bite again!" ”

Diao Chan smiled, "If you are suspicious, the sachet on my body will be given to you, and the mosquitoes on my body will not look for you." ”

"Then what's going on, Miss, you're a daughter, if you get bitten by a mosquito, you will kill them cheaply!" Xiaoshu walked to the courtyard, "This house is very different from what we live in Xiangyang, and the yard is not as big as the house we live in!" ”

Diao Chan's teeth were slightly exposed, and her coquettish eyes were comforting, "Xiaoshu, you should adapt as soon as possible, since you came with the master, then don't complain." ”

"Yes, yes, as long as Miss has a master, I can't wait to stay by my lord's side every day."

"Xiaoshu!" Diao Chan's cheeks were flushed with a little shame, and there was a hint of panic in her beautiful eyes, all of which were charming and moving.

Xiao Shu sighed, "Miss, although the relationship between the master and you has indeed improved a little, but our master is not so fond of women, if you keep doing this, I'm afraid the good years will be delayed." ”

"Ah, what should I do!"
