In this banquet, only four people, Li Yi and Guo Zhun, Xiao Hui and Qiu Feng, were invited, all of whom sat on the seats on the left, and on the right were Liang Lan, the deputy envoy of Shanxian Jiedu, Shi Yuanhuai, the governor of the palace, and Cishuang Xun Zaluo.

The other officials and generals from Yunnan were all seated in the hall outside.

And because Lian Jun insisted on following Li Yi's side, Yang Huaiying made a special arrangement to set up a special seat for Lian Jun at the head of their seats.

Probably thinking that he had succeeded in lobbying Li Yi, Yang Huaiying was extremely excited.

After the banquet was set up and the personnel arrived, Yang Huaiyingzhi stood up proudly and said with great interest in front of everyone: "Today we can invite Li Dashuai from Yunnan to be a guest here, which is really the supreme honor of our Shanxian Mansion in Tokyo. Our Dayining Kingdom has always had a very close relationship with the Han Dynasty, and the friendship between the two countries is as eternal as the sun and moon in the sky. ”

"With the efforts of both of us, the Tokyo Shanxian Mansion in the Great Righteous Ningguo will also establish a closer and stronger relationship with the Great Han Yunnan. May we join hands and rely on each other, share weal and woe, and continue to maintain our deep friendship for eternity. ”

"We all know that Li Dashuai is not only the Xuanfu envoy of the Han Dynasty, but also the top champion of the Han Dynasty for three years. Li Dashuai is erudite and talented, has a good mind, and has unparalleled achievements in poetry and songs, which is really a model for my generation to learn and emulate. ”

Since Xiao Wang heard that Li Dashuai was in charge of Yunnan, he has been eager to meet with him, but Li Dashuai is busy with state affairs and government affairs, so he has no time to spare. It's hard to meet until now, which is really commendable! ”

"Maybe it's the favor of Heaven that has made it possible for us to have today's meeting. Unexpectedly, at first sight, Li Dashuai's charm and charm impressed Xiao Wang even more. To be able to make such a good friend, what a celebration and how fortunate it is for Xiao Wang! ”

Speaking of this, he raised his glass to Li Yi and greeted him diligently: "Today, Xiao Wang, I have to meet with Fan, and my joy arises spontaneously. Xiao Wang, I am obsessed with how old Li Dashuai is, and I am willing to be commensurate with Li Dashuai's brothers, I don't know what respect is"

Li Yi hurriedly stood up, pretending to be overjoyed and said: "Your Highness pushes love, how dare you disobey." Brother Yang is a descendant of the emperor, a royal weapon, if the younger brother and I can make friends, it is really a great blessing. The little brother is so frightened that he receives the teaching! ”

Yang Huaiying laughed, raised his glass happily and said: "Come, let's toast to the distinguished guests of Han Yunnan and Xiao Wang's dear brothers!" May Brother Li soar to 90,000 miles, and Qingyun will report good news. Come, let's toast together. ”

Everyone present stood up and raised their glasses, and then drank them all, and the waiter next to them hurriedly stepped forward to refill their glasses.

Li Yi knew that on this occasion, the host had finished toasting, and then it would be the turn of the guests to return the salute.

The main content is nothing more than a thank you speech to thank the host for his hospitality. After that, the escorts take turns to toast the guests, and so on and so forth, until the host and guests are all knocked down.

Therefore, in ancient times, it was not uncommon for sake breweries to last for a long time, sometimes from noon to night.

However, Li Yi just wants to make some fuss in this wine, and only when they have almost drunk can they say what is in their hearts.

Li Yi already knows the strength of this wine, and it is not a problem for himself at all. But it's hard to say whether there are any wine masters here.

I heard that people here generally drink slowly, and once you drink in a hurry, I'm afraid no one can stop it, so it's better to make a quick decision!

Li Yi calmed down, and after brewing his feelings for a while, he stood up. Raising the wine glass in his hand, he smiled and faced everyone present: "His Royal Highness the Prince just now, oh! Brother Yang mentioned the profound friendship between the two countries and looked forward to the future development of bilateral relations. ”

"As soon as I entered the Shanxi Mansion, I deeply felt the sincere affection and good wishes of your country, and Li Yi is willing to do his best to play a role in the further development of the relations between the two countries."

"The deep friendship of your country and Brother Yang's love made Li Yi and me a little panicked, and I deserved it. Li Yicai is shallow and low-minded. ”

"Today, he has been invited by His Royal Highness the Prince, and he is a national treasure, Li Yi is afraid that he will not understand the elegance of his shallow behavior, and it is difficult to look forward to it. In addition, the amount of alcohol is limited, if there is anything inconsiderate, please bear with me. ”

Then he turned to Yang Huaiying and said: "Li Yi's wine is a wine of gratitude. First, I would like to express my gratitude to your country and His Royal Highness the Prince for the kind invitation; Second, I wish our two countries prosperity, peace and peace. In the next first dry for respect, please! ”

After speaking, Li Yi drank all the wine in the cup unequivocally, with a smile on his face.

After everyone had finished a glass of wine, Li Yi picked up another glass of wine, faced Yang Huaiying again, and said with emotion: "Brother Yang has stopped in Shu for many years, and has been widely influenced by Confucianism. ”

"The younger brother is late in school, and it is difficult to hope for him. I would like to use this cup to pay tribute to Brother Yang's subordinates, and I hope that Brother Yang will not hate the rude and dull younger brother, and teach me! ”

Yang Huaiying couldn't stop laughing when he heard this, and only then did he smile happily at the end: "My brother is really cute!" It's not because of my brother's stinginess, although my brother has lived in Chengdu for 18 years, but he has been doing nothing, it can be said that he has achieved nothing, how can he have any clever opinions! ”

"What's more, with my shallow and contemptuous knowledge, how can I teach the champion of the Han Dynasty, isn't this a big joke? Don't tease your brother anymore! ”

"Huh! However, I can't shirk my brother's glass of wine, even if it is a bar of friendship between the two countries! ”

After speaking, he drank the wine without hesitation.

After Li Yi also drank the wine in the cup, he smiled slightly: "Brother Yang is really a cheerful person, you can see that Brother Yang is not only able to write and martial arts, but also has an extraordinary amount of alcohol." The little brother admires it so much! ”

Yang Huaiying smiled leisurely and said meaningfully: "Brother don't judge him like this, how can he compare his brother's alcohol consumption with you, people near and far in Yunnan know that his brother's alcohol consumption is unparalleled in the world!" I'm afraid none of you here are your opponents! ”

Li Yi knew that Yang Huaiying had already probed himself like a glass man, and he was afraid that there was no secret in front of him, so he had to smile and remain silent when he heard this.

As soon as Yang Huaiying finished speaking, Liang Lan, who was under his head, stood up, greeted me with a wine glass in both hands, and said to me in a loud voice: "Li Dashuai has worked tirelessly to visit Tokyo, and the young general has already been greatly admired. ”

"Now our two families are not only close neighbors, but also close allies, and Li Dashuai is a brother to my family, and the relationship between the two countries is very unusual. The young general's wine is limited, and it is not a tribute, so I would like to serve two glasses of water and wine, and ask Li Dashuai not to refuse. ”
