When Xu Ci appeared in front of Tian Fan, Tian Fan didn't think that he could say anything good, and sure enough!

Liu Bei looked at Tian Fan and Xu Xi with a smile, Tian Fan couldn't get any information from his smile or eyes. Liu Bei's expression is simply the expression that should be shown when he hears or sees something interesting, and he doesn't see any disgust for Tian Fan, nor does he see any appreciation for Xu Xi. He just smiled like that, quietly waiting for Tian Fan to answer.

Because there was a sudden silence here, gradually, the whole hall noticed that there was something abnormal, so, slowly, everyone stopped the noise and looked here.

Tian Fan smiled, smiling like a stone cutting through the lake, bringing up a circle of ripples, rippling in the lake.

He bowed his head slightly and said, "Mr. Xu is right, in this war, everything is indeed very strong, and even overshadows the lord!" ”

As soon as he finished saying this, a few people nearby who heard Xu Xi's words couldn't help but be shocked! They thought that Tian Fan would deny it, but they didn't expect him to admit it! Meritorious master, this is a taboo for a courtier!

The smile on Liu Bei's face remained the same, he believed that Tian Fan still had something to say!

Chen Qun was also smiling, but there was obvious excitement in his eyes!

"Hehe, Mr. Xu, it's not right for you to say that! Anyone who is a rough person has never read a few books, but anyone who has heard of a sentence called, you don't compete with your ministers! Why? Because, the merits of the courtiers are all the king's! As a Ming Jun, you should know this sentence, remember this sentence, and do what this sentence says! I have made a little contribution, but without the trust and support of the lord, what can I do?

"To say a big disrespectful word, Gao Zu is not as good as Han Xin and Strategizing in terms of military affairs, not as good as Zhang Liang and Chen Ping, and not as good as Xiao He in terms of political affairs, and not as good as Xiahou Ying and Fan Hao in terms of military affairs. According to what you said, wouldn't all of these people overshadow Gaozu? But Gaozu created a 400-year-old Han dynasty! And what about Zhang Liang and Chen Ping? In the final analysis, they are still the courtiers of Gaozu. In the final analysis, Gaozu is skin, Zhang Liang, Chen Ping, Han Xin, Xiao He, Fan Hao and others are all Mao! One must build on a firm foundation? ”

On Xu Ci's face, a layer of fine white sweat had already appeared.

Tian Fan smiled slightly, and continued: "Monarchs, ministers, fathers, sons, fathers and sons, this sentence, presumably a learned person like Mr. Xu should know the meaning, right?" If you are a learned Confucian, I will show off my knowledge in front of you today! Hehe, this sentence means that the king should have the appearance of the king, and the courtier should have the appearance of the courtier, and the following are similar. But what about the other meaning? I don't know if Mr. Xu knows?

"Hehe, whether Mr. knows it or not, Fan has already said that today I want to be a learned Confucian! Another meaning, in fact, is not complicated, what is said is that the father and son of the monarch and the minister should have their own positioning! To put it bluntly, 'Jun' should set his position at the level of 'Jun', and 'Chen' should set up his position at the level of 'Minister'. In other words, you can't treat yourself as a minister, a minister, and you can't treat yourself as a minister!

"So, what is Jun going to do? And what should the minister do? For the way of the king, it is not appropriate to say much about being a courtier, but it can be the way of a courtier, but there is a little gain! A courtier is a meritorious servant to the king! If the courtiers do not make meritorious contributions to the king, then the courtiers will lose their value! ”

Xu Xi wiped a handful of sweat, he regretted what he did today!

Tian Fan was surprised: "Oh, why is Mr. Xu sweating?" Could it be that the fire in the hall is burning too much today? ”

After word of mouth, everyone in the hall already roughly knew what Xu Xi said, and they were somewhat disdainful of him. At this time, when Tian Fan mocked him, everyone couldn't help laughing.

Tian Fan waited for the laughter to pause, and then continued: "If you are a courtier, if you don't make meritorious service, you have no value!" As a Ming Jun, he naturally hopes that his courtiers will make more meritorious contributions, because only when his courtiers make meritorious contributions, can Jun's great cause develop, and Jun's peace of mind! Jun, in order to be happy! ”

Tian Fan turned his head to look at Liu Bei and bowed, the smile on Liu Bei's face was thick, and his eyes were also full of smiles. As soon as he saw him salute, Liu Bei nodded slightly.

Tian Fan looked at Xu Xi again, sneered, and said, "I looked at the lord just now and found that the lord was very happy. I wonder if Mr. Xu knows why the lord is so happy? If you don't know, anyone who can tell you, oh, don't charge tuition, whoever doesn't miss your family's money! ”

Everyone couldn't help but laugh again, and Xu Xi was already embarrassed.

Tian Fan said sonorously: "Because, everyone in the hall has made meritorious contributions!" If we have made meritorious contributions, he will know that the great cause of restoring the Han Dynasty is promising! ”

Zhang Fei couldn't help it, he suddenly stood up, clapped his palms vigorously, and shouted: "Cai! What Boguang said won my heart, and it should be a big white! ”

As he spoke, he took his glass and drank it dry.

As soon as everyone shouted through him, they hurriedly shouted: "Cai! As he spoke, they had a drink together.

When everyone calmed down, Tian Fan smiled at Xu Xi, smiled so shyly, and said: "Mr. Xu, after you reminded me, after seeing the face of the lord, I know even more that the lord is a rare Ming monarch, worthy of my life's assistance!" Hehe, I don't know, what do you think? ”

Xu Xi was sweating, he looked at Liu Bei, and hurriedly said, "Lord...... Lord...... It's Mingjun...... Mingjun! ”

Tian Fan nodded, ignored him, and turned to walk towards Liu Bei. Lu Bu and Guan Yu glanced at Xu Ci murderously, Xu Ci shrank his neck in fright, and almost didn't pee out. Guan Yu pushed him away, and the two rushed to Tian Fan's side.

Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and others saw it, and they hurriedly followed. More than a dozen generals came three steps in front of Liu Bei together, Liu Bei couldn't wait to ignore him, he hurriedly picked up his wine glass and stood up.

Tian Fan waited until all the generals stopped their steps and straightened their postures, and then raised their glasses and said, "Lord, Fan waits, I toast you with a glass of wine!" Thank you for your appreciation of us, without your appreciation, we would not have so many opportunities to make meritorious contributions, and without your support, we would not be able to make even a trace of merit! Lord, I salute you! ”

Lu Bu, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Gao Shun, Liyi, Pang De and other generals said in unison: "Respect the lord!" ”

Liu Bei was a little excited, he nodded again and again, and said, "Okay, good, good!" Boguang said it well! How can a monarch be afraid of his courtiers' meritorious service? Hahaha, generals, I hope you will work hard, kill more enemies, win more battles, go to the city more, and hope that you can make great contributions and be crowned! Here, let's have a toast! ”

Everyone drank a cup together, Tian Fan looked up at Liu Bei, and the two couldn't help laughing. When all the generals saw it, they immediately laughed.

The people in the hall looked at them and laughed, and shouted without knowing what to say: "Cai! The lord and the generals have such a tacit understanding, they should be revealed! ”

When everyone heard this, they hurriedly applauded and drank a glass together.

Tian Fan and the others saluted Liu Bei again, and after Liu Bei nodded, they turned around and toasted elsewhere.

When I looked for Xu Xi again, I saw that he was gone.

Tian Fan couldn't help frowning, and asked in a low voice, "Yun Chang, what's going on with Xu Xi?" ”

Guan Yu pursed his lips, snorted coldly, and said: "When the eldest brother returned to the army, he wrote an article, full of joy and sky, specifically to congratulate the eldest brother on his victory and return home. I read it out in front of my eldest brother and us, and as soon as my eldest brother was happy, he resumed his identity as a literary scholar. This kind of villain is not worth being angry with him. ”

Tian Fan smiled and said in a low voice: "I'm not angry, I just thought, who opened his crotch and exposed him?" ”

Lu Bu, Zhang Fei and others gathered around Tian Fan, not far away, and when they heard him say this, everyone couldn't help laughing.

The group led by Tian Fan is equivalent to all the senior generals in Xiapi City, where they go to toast, it is to give face to that person, and everyone has to avoid the table.

After a while of drinking, Tian Fan wanted to go to the civil official, but when several generals heard this, they immediately dispersed, and each went to find someone who knew each other to drink and have fun. They really don't want to deal with those civil servants, and they can't talk at every turn, and they get angry when they listen to them. Tian Fan smiled bitterly and shook his head, but he still went to the civil official to toast.

At this time, the banquet has entered a superb stage. A lot of people weren't in their seats, busy toasting around.

Tian Fan looked at the civil official, but saw that in the first row, only one Chen Qun remained. There are nearly two hundred people in this hall, and there are many patriarchs of famous local families, such as Chen Qi, Cao Bao and others, as well as many erudite and Hongru, such as Zheng Xuan, Guan Ning, Kong Rong, Sima Hui and others. For example, at this time, Zhuge Jin, Shi Tao, Xu Shu and others were toasting Sima Hui, Huang Chengyan, and Pang Degong, Chen Gong, Chen Deng, and Liu Ye were toasting Guan Ning and Kong Rong, and Liu Bei and Sun Qian were toasting Zheng Xuan.

Tian Fan was very surprised when he saw that Chen Qun did not go to toast. He planned to pay tribute to Wenchen and then to these erudite Confucians, because it was so quiet.

However, let's salute Chen Qun first.

Thinking about it, Tian Fan rushed to Chen Qun, three steps away from him, and prepared to toast.

Maybe it was a coincidence, maybe it was deliberate, Chen Qun turned around to look at the person behind him. That person was the patriarch of a large local clan, and he couldn't help but be flattered when he saw Chen Qun talking to him. But as soon as he saw Tian Fan coming to toast, he hurriedly reminded: "Chen Xicao, Tian Baihu is looking for you to toast!" ”

Chen Qun turned around at this time, and when he saw Tian Fan, he was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Oh, damn it, damn it, snubbing Boguang!" ”

As he spoke, he picked up his wine glass and said, "Boguang, hehe, please!" ”

Tian Fan's eyes froze, becoming a little gloomy. He drank quietly, turned around and left!

Chen Qun, I don't give Tian Fan face! The ancients had a good face, especially the men of ancient times! Tian Fan has lived here for several years, although he is not as good-looking as the people at that time, but he also has a bottom line in his heart.

During the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, in the banquet where Prime Minister Tian Wei married his wife, Dou Ying, the nephew of the former general, Wei Qihou and Empress Dowager Dou, led the former Yan Xiang to participate. Dou Yingcheng's mansion is deep, and there is nothing yet, but the bushman immediately couldn't stand it, and fought with that person, which directly destroyed the beautiful atmosphere of the Prime Minister's Mansion. As a result, Tian Wei became angry and chased and beat the bush, which directly caused a large-scale massacre and migration of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to the local heroes. At that time, no less than 100,000 people died or were relocated because of this!

In that era, when people were sitting, they were sitting on a cushion, and that cushion was called a "seat"! When someone makes a toast, in order to show respect, it is necessary to "avoid the table", that is, to get down from the mat and sit down on the side of the mat. If one leg is still on the mat, it is called "avoiding half a seat", which is very disrespectful!

And Chen Qun was even more excessive, he didn't even make a move to avoid the table, just sat down so big and received the glass of wine from Tian Fanjing! In this case, unless it is an elder to a junior, or a superior to a subordinate.

Tian Fan came to his place with a mysterious smile that seemed to be smiling. Zhang Fei, Lu Bu and others were drinking together, and when they saw a strange smile on his face, they hurriedly asked the reason.

Tian Fan whispered, they were immediately furious, and they wanted to settle accounts with Chen Qun. Tian Fan hurriedly grabbed him and said in a low voice: "Everyone is happy today, if you make the lord unhappy for this matter, the gain outweighs the loss!" ”

Lu Bu said angrily: "Then let him go on like this?" ”

Tian Fan sneered and said, "How can it be so simple? Yide, Fengxian, find all our people, give me a toast one by one, this cup is small today, everyone gives me three glasses! By the way, he drank light wine, you change it to spirits for him, and give me a toast one by one! Hey, hey, Chen Qun, you don't give me face, good, good! I'm going to tickle you all over and you won't be able to find the lice! ”

This matter is not big, it is not small, if Tian Fan can't help but be angry and makes a move, it is his fault, and the small thing becomes a big thing. Chen Qun's trick is enough to damage!

But Lu Bu, Zhang Fei, Guan Yu and others just went to toast and drunk you, this can't be said to be wrong, right? Oh, we're fighting in front, you're delivering food to us in the back, we thank you, we're giving you a few glasses of wine, we're thanking you, you're not drinking enough yourself, you're drunk, it's our business?

When Zhang Fei and Lu Bu heard this, they couldn't help but rub their hands, hehe, the whole person, it's still very attractive!

So, the two of them went to inform those generals separately, and after a while, Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, Liyi, Gao Shun and others all knew, and they were all angry. No wonder, provoking Tian Fan is equivalent to challenging the entire military general group, isn't this looking for death?

Tian Fan sat down in his place with a calm face, and happened to see Chen Qun looking at him, he picked up his wine glass, and toasted him with a smile on his face. When Chen Qun saw his face, he was immediately stunned! Tian Fan, it's not so easy to bully, right?

Sure enough, it didn't take long, Zhang Fei came to Chen Qun with a jar of spirits, and said with a grin: "Chen Xicao, haha, Lao Zhang is a rough man, I only listen to the eldest brother, the eldest brother said that you have great merit, that is, you must have great merit!" Haha, our brothers are close and close? Come, Lao Zhang respects you three cups! ”

When Chen Qun saw it, he hurriedly stood up, picked up his wine glass, and said, "Haha, it turned out to be General Zhang, hehe, General, come!" ”

As he spoke, he was about to drink.

Zhang Fei hurriedly stopped him and said, "Wait! Chen Xicao, you are not an authentic person, my old Zhang is in good spirits, so I came to toast, and you use that light wine to fool me? That's not going to work! ……”

Zhang Fei flickered, and Chen Qun reluctantly drank three glasses of spirits, squeezed his eyebrows and teased his eyes for a long time before he recovered. Zhang Fei is Liu Bei's sworn brother, so the relationship can't be too stiff!

Zhang Fei laughed and slapped him on the shoulder, almost knocking Chen Qun to the ground. Zhang Fei said: "Chen Xicao is good, refreshing!" ”

With that, he left.

Chen Qun had just recovered when Lu Bu came. Lu Bu said with a grin: "Chen Xicao, Bu is a rough man, but he also knows the truth that before the soldiers and horses arrive, the grain and grass go first!" So, this battle can be won, thanks to you! Well, without you, our soldiers would have to go hungry. So, Ben will toast you three times! But let's say okay, I'm Lu Bu, I'm not a fool, don't fool me with that light wine! ”

After speaking, he stared at Chen Qun with a pair of bull's eyes, his eyes blazing, and he looked at Chen Qun murderously. Where has Chen Qun ever seen this? Not to mention him, even Guan Yu and other generals, under Lu Bu's gaze, they all had to be cold.

He hurriedly picked up the cup and said, "Okay, Wen Hou, please!" ”

After drinking, I was slapped again!

Just relieved, Guan Yu came. Guan Yu smiled loyally and said, "Chen Xicao, hehe, a great hero!" Lao Guan is a rough man......"

Three shots of spirits, one slap!

Zhao Yun came, "Chen Xicao, Yun is a rough man...... "Three glasses of spirits, one slap!"

Gao Shun came, "Chen Xicao, hehe, Shun is not good at talking or drinking, make an exception today...... "Three glasses of spirits, one slap!"

Koji Yi came, "Chen Xicao, hehe, Yi is a rough man...... "Three glasses of spirits, one slap!"

……

Chen Qun found that all the generals had become rough people, but what they said always had a reason for you to drink. So, without waiting for Pang De and other new generals to toast, the great Chen Qun was gloriously drunk!

This guy is drunk, the wine is not good, he is smirking, and he doesn't know what he is happy about. At this moment, the movement is bigger, the fun is bigger, and everyone in the lobby is laughing one by one!

At this moment, a few days ago, Chen Qun wiped out several big clans and killed countless ** scoundrels, and the prestige accumulated was gone......

Liu Bei also frowned again and again, what's the situation?

Tian Fan sat opposite Chen Qun, with a harmless smile on his face, Lu Bu and the others always felt that this smile was terrifying! ps: Sorry, thank you, it's a little late.
