Chapter 17: The Feast of the Hung Gate

In the evening, Han Yu, who changed into a clean and regular clothes and bathed in his hair, walked out of the wing room, Zhang Tanghuai, who was waiting outside, was slightly stunned, the new Han Yu looked dignified, how could he have the previous sloppy appearance, and couldn't help but praise: "Brother Han is so handsome and extraordinary, and his future is limitless."

"But Uncle Zhang has already sent someone to urge, I don't know which girl Brother Zhang has taken a fancy to!" Keane smiled heartily and couldn't help but tease.

"Father..."Thinking of the marriage that was sent to urge every day, Zhang Tanghuai couldn't smile bitterly for a while.

It turned out that Mr. Zhang, because he was kind and kind, did not refuse to propose relatives, and the marriage date was undecided here, but there were several families who made a fuss.

Although the matter was quickly resolved, the wedding date could not be postponed any longer.

Zhang Tang Huaitian was not afraid of the ground, he was afraid of Zhang's reprimand, and hurriedly promised that there would be a reply within a few days.

But now is not the time to think about these things, the Hongmen Banquet that I went to tonight is full of murderous opportunities.

Although Han Yu is full of confidence and has considered all aspects, but it is up to people to succeed in heaven, and no one has a perfect certainty, so he can only do his best.

Han Yu, who didn't know equestrianism, boarded the carriage that had been prepared long ago, and Zhang Tanghuai, who was riding a horse on the side, quickly arrived at the heavily guarded prefect's mansion with a horse and a cart.

As the supreme administrator of Fengyang, Yan Rongxuan, the prefect of Fengyang, and Chen Jinghao, the commander of the battalion, personally went to the door of the mansion to wait and greet them.

This is what Han Yu is quite concerned about, you must know that Yan Rongxuan invited two thousand generals to a banquet in order to control the battalion soldiers.

In addition to Chen Jinghao, the thousand president in front of him, there is another thousand president Zhen Xing in his early forties.

It's just surprising that Zhen Xing did not appear in the greeting team, but among the battalions stationed around the mansion, there were Zhen Xing's subordinates, two of whom led the troops, Han Yu went with Zhang Tanghuai to receive the silver, but he vaguely remembered that it stands to reason that even the prefect personally greeted him, although Zhen Xing held heavy troops, but his identity was only a thousand generals, so he had the courage to refuse to greet him.

In other words, Zhen Xing, the commander of the battalion soldiers, was either killed and deprived of military power, or was imprisoned.

Seeing the arrival of Zhang Tanghuai, who turned over and dismounted, the prefect greeted him with a smile on his face, and greeted him very cordially and warmly, without seeing the original official arrogance at all.

In fact, Yan Rongxuan has already fabricated about Zhang Tanghuai's disobedience to the government order and his intention to collude with Kou Jun to rebel.

It's just that when he learned that Zhang Tanghuai was willing to go to the banquet, Yan Rongxuan was naturally overjoyed, since the other party sent it to the door, how could there be any reason not to send people on the road.

Yan Rongxuan also made a bloody investment, not only ordered Chen Jinghao, the head of the thousand, to lead people, mobilized more than 1,000 heavy soldiers around the mansion, and even transferred another of Zhen Xing's subordinates to the head of the house, and in the back hall, dozens of elite soldiers personally selected by Yan Rongxuan were equipped with swords, bows and crossbows, and they were called by throwing cups.

If Zhang Tanghuai is aware of current affairs and takes the initiative to hand over the military power of the corps, he can save his life, if it is stubborn and scheming Yan Rongxuan, will he be killed on the spot, as long as Zhang Tanghuai has it in his hand, he is still afraid that he will not be able to mobilize the militia to obey his orders? Everything is under control, Yan Rongxuan even retreated from the left and right armor soldiers, and generously allowed Zhang Tanghuai to bring a knife inside, but it was a courtesy.

"This is..."

Yan Rongxuan was in a good mood, and just when he was leading Zhang Tanghuai inside, he suddenly noticed the fresh and handsome Han Yu on the side.

"My lord, this is my brother Han Yu, take him out to see the world today." Zhang Tanghuai bowed slightly, said respectfully to the prefect's face, and then raised his tone, and said to Han Yu with a little displeasure, "Han Yu, don't hurry up and salute the prefect, it's really unruly!" ā€

"Grass people Han Yu, knock to see the prefect!"

Yan Rongxuan was also stunned, he heard that Zhang Tanghuai had a stupid brother, and outsiders commented that he was stupid and sloppy, but today he was clearly fresh and handsome.

It can be seen that the rumors are false, and it is not enough to believe at all, of course, Yan Rongxuan will not let Han Yu bow down, and stepped forward to help Han Yu up with kindness.

Han Yu didn't think about kneeling, his knees just bent slightly, and when he saw the prefect step forward, he immediately stood up.

In the luxurious mansion banquet hall, the singing and dancing are leveled, the graceful dancing posture of the carefully selected singer is fascinating, the sound of instrumental music is fascinating, and everyone in the venue has drunk three rounds of dishes and five flavors, Fengyang prefect Yan Rongxuan got up and raised his glass and said: "The Lantern Festival a few days ago, thanks to Zhang Qian's total efforts to defeat the Kou army, won with the number of 100 people, he is really a famous general in the world, come, this official toasts you!" ā€

It's just that Zhang Tanghuai didn't get up, let alone raise a glass to celebrate, and even the delicious food on the table didn't move, just looked at the prefect indifferently.

"Why, Mr. Zhang Qian doesn't give this official this face?" Yan Rongxuan played with the wine glass in his hand, and his face was unhappy for a while.

"Lord Yan, just say it if you have something to say."

Zhang Tanghuai sneered again and again, everyone understood that this was a dangerous Hongmen banquet, and there was really no need to continue to pretend.

"In that case, this official will get straight to the point!"

Yan Rongxuan waved his hand casually, and the original ritual music suddenly quieted down, and the dancing girls hurriedly bowed and retreated.

In the luxurious hall for a while, only the prefect Yan Rongxuan who sat in the main seat was left, Chen Jinghao, the head of the thousand who sat on the upper right, holding a sword in his hand, and Zhang Tanghuai, the new head of the thousand who sat on the left, and Han Yu, who was eating food without gutter oil, and dozens of sword and axe hands behind the screen, just waiting for the prefect's order.

"I want to hear about it." Zhang Tanghuai's tone was calm, staring at Yan Rongxuan and said unhurriedly.

At the beginning, although Zhang Qian was lucky to defeat the Kou army, but the Kou army still has tens of thousands of troops, and my Fengyang defenders are less than 3,000, and the artillery is fierce, but it is not endless, although the city is solid, but it cannot be held all year round, and Zhang Qian's subordinates were originally only a few dozen people, and now although they practice the temporary formation of the militia every day, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist the attack of the Kou army, so this official thinks that the policy of appeasement can protect Fengyang! Yan Rongxuan obviously came prepared, and scolded Fang Xuan as he looked at Zhang Tanghuai and talked.

"What a appeasement strategy, interesting, interesting!"

Han Yu, who was munching on a delicious meal, suddenly held up a roast chicken and rudely slapped the table in support of the prefect's face.

Yan Rongxuan was slightly unhappy in his heart, but he didn't take Han Yu in his eyes, looked at the silent Zhang Tanghuai and continued: "This official has received a letter from Kou Shou Zhang Xianzhong, and now tens of thousands of Kou troops are stationed in the outer city without attacking, because they don't want the war to affect and hurt the people in the city, as long as we wait for the city to open the city and let the Kou army loot for half a day, I believe that Fengyang will not be lost..."

"Yan Rongxuan, as an official of the imperial court, you eat the king's fortune, serve the king, and don't want to serve the court, but in order to protect yourself, you open the city and surrender, don't you know that the Kou army is fierce, when the gate of Fengyang City is opened, the thieves will be in trouble, and they will inevitably be ruined, you evil guy, you really deserve to die!" Zhang Tanghuai got up angrily, pulled out his saber and scolded coldly.

At this time, the elite soldiers were on the side, Yan Rongxuan felt that the victory was in his hands, but he didn't expect Zhang Tanghuai to stand with a horizontal knife, proudly scolded, and was stared at by Zhang Tanghuai's intimidating cold gaze, Yan Rongxuan was so frightened that he took a few steps back, and the wine glass that was originally in his hand fell to the ground, and with a crisp sound, the wine glass suddenly fell to pieces.

Chen Jinghao, the head of Qian, who was sitting on the right hand side of the prefect Yan Rongxuan, got up and pulled out his saber and looked at Zhang Tanghuai coldly, as the wine glass shattered, dozens of elite soldiers who were originally hiding behind the screen quickly rushed out, faintly surrounded Zhang Tanghuai in the middle, the blades and arrows were cold and cold, and they were murderous for a while, just waiting for the prefect to give an order, and Zhang Tanghuai was captured on the spot.

"Those who know the times are Junjie, why should Zhang Qian be stubborn, when people die, there is nothing."

Yan Rongxuan's face was not good, he was actually frightened by his gaze before, and he couldn't get off the stage for a while, looking at Zhang Tanghuai's eyes turned cold, and his tone became more and more cold.

"I can't wait to break you to pieces!"

Zhang Tanghuai, who was surrounded by dozens of elite soldiers, proudly held his saber and looked at the prefect's face angrily.

"This is your own death, and you can't complain about this official!"

For Yan Rongxuan, although killing the famous Zhang Tanghuai on the spot may cause a lot of trouble.

It's just that Zhang Tanghuai is really stubborn, if he can capture him alive, it is naturally the best, and it is okay to kill him on the spot, Zhang Tanghuai is dead, I believe that the thousand militia groups will not be able to set off any storms.

Yan Rongxuan laughed angrily, raised his palm slightly, and just as he was about to let a group of elite soldiers rush up, suddenly a voice begging for mercy broke the peace.
