Chapter 33: The Plains King Enters Chu

After hitting a soft nail at King Han's place, Pingyuan Jun returned to Daliang and continued to consult with King Wei. King Wei generously said that even if South Korea does not send troops, Wei will definitely send troops to help! With the assurance of King Wei, Pingyuan Jun felt that the trip was worthwhile! But when Pingyuan Jun asked for an oath, King Wei refused. He said: "Zhao and Wei are counted, but what is their back? My brother and king, in-laws also, endure the disaster of sister and nephew joining the army? But if you get the year, you will raise a large army as for Handan, and you will have no worries! ”

Pingyuan Jun knew that the two brothers of King Wei and Xinlingjun were in close harmony, and in the past, in order to win over King Wei, he rarely met with Xinlingjun alone. Seeing that the King of Wei had the intention of prevaricating, he said: "The minister and the king of Xinling have not seen each other for a long time, and dare to stay in the king's house!" ”

King Wei actually showed that he didn't care, and said, "This is easy to do." Mowgli's house is on the side of the palace, Mowgli and lead the king! Fu and said behind him: "Long Yangjun resigns for the widow!" "Behind the screen, turn out Long Yangjun. Ten years of wind and moon have made Long Yangjun look old, but he is still radiant. However, in recent years, King Wei has no longer let Long Yangjun enter the harem.

The three of them came out, and the doorman who was waiting in the court greeted him, and Pingyuan Jun said: "Let's go to Wei Gongzi's Mansion today, and we will leave in a few days." ”

Xinlingjun and Pingyuanjun are both noble sons who are known for raising guests, admiring each other, and there are also acquaintances and acquaintances between the disciples and the guests. Xinlingjun entered the palace and did not bring his own guests; Since it was a private banquet, Pingyuanjun only brought one attendant to wait outside, and the others stayed in the pavilion.

When Long Yangjun saw the entourage, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Mr. is a sword?" ”

The man also stared at Long Yangjun and said, "If you don't mean it, the sword intent is like this!" ”

Pingyuan Jun said to Long Yangjun: "The little servant Mao Sui, the rough swordsmanship, is not a view!" ”

Long Yangjun said: "If Brother Mao's sword is not a view, there is no sword in the world!" The sword of the brother is from Mao Gong? ”

Mao Sui said: "The giant eyes of the monarch are exactly what Master Mao taught!" ”

Long Yangjun said: "I haven't seen Mao Gong for more than ten years!" ”

Xinling Jun said: "I didn't expect to meet the old know." Dare to invite the second prince to go with him! ”

Long Yangjun said: "The cheapness of the minister, dare to hope for the king's gift, dare to resign!" ”

Mao Sui said: "You should go to call the guests, willing to be the same!" ”

Xinling Jun said: "I wish to see it soon!" ”

Mao Sui was led out of the palace gate by Long Yangjun and went to the pavilion to lead the guests to the Wei Gongzi's mansion. Xinlingjun personally led Pingyuanjun through the hall and alleys, and entered the mansion through the back door. In the past ten years, although Xinlingjun does not love women, the back house has gradually become red and green, which is not the cold scene before. Pingyuanjun traveled all the way, and the fat powder was fragrant.

Out of the back house, into the lobby, Xinlingjun called Tsukazai, saying that Pingyuanjun and the guests will stay in the mansion, and the guests can be invited to accompany them. When Mao Sui rushed to the long street in front of Wei Gongzi's Mansion with all the guests, Zhang Yu, Mr. Zhong Yue and more than a dozen guests living in Daliang City were already waiting at the entrance of the street. Everyone joined hands in Wei Gongzi's mansion, like a reunion of relatives and friends. Soon, the two gentlemen in the hall passed down the word, but today but feast and drink, and they can go to Juxianzhuang together on the same day, leaving Pingyuan Jun and Xinling Jun in the house.

When the banquet was opened, Xinling Jun and Pingyuan Jun sat on the steps in front of the hall, and at the bottom of the steps were the guests of both sides, the main east and west; The two gentlemen in the hall raised each other's lamps, and the guests in the hall sang to each other. Drinking, all the guests hook shoulders and backs, call friends, this group, that group, sitting in the court, seem to complain to each other, in fact, they are intriguing with each other, tempting, confessing, it is the confrontation of words and swords. The two gentlemen in the hall looked at each other and toasted each other with a smile.

The next day, Pingyuanjun's doorman was led by Zhang Yu and drove to Juxianzhuang, where he would negotiate various details with Xinlingjun's doorman. And Xinlingjun and Pingyuanjun together, or drinking and singing, or climbing high to look at, or watching singing and dancing, but it seems relaxed. Three days later, the doormen returned to Daliang and reported the results of the negotiations to their respective monarchs, and neither side raised any objections. Xinlingjun set up a banquet again to see off Pingyuanjun. Both of them expressed their satisfaction with the agreement reached and jointly worked together for the longevity of the two countries!

After arriving at Daliang, Pingyuanjun's itinerary was no longer low-key, they hired a big ship from Daliang, inserted the envoy's festival charm in the bow of the boat, set off from Daliang, and went straight down to Chencheng along the chasm.

On the boat, the attitude of the guests towards Mao Sui has changed a lot, and they obviously show respect. Obviously, Mao Sui played an important role in the negotiations in Juxianzhuang. Ping Yuanjun asked about the details of the negotiation, and everyone also publicly recommended Mao Sui to come forward to answer, Mao Sui's answer was clear and concise, showing an accurate grasp of the key points, which made Ping Yuanjun look at Mao Sui with admiration.

The boat got off the boat ten miles outside Chen Cheng and entered the pavilion. The postman immediately sent people into the city to report to the king of Chu that the envoy of Zhao, Pingyuanjun, had arrived. Unlike Daliang, where all traffic relies on people to run, all traffic in Chencheng relies on boats. About an hour later, Chun Shenjun personally led hundreds of guests to arrive in a number of boats, and after the post official reported in, Pingyuan Jun greeted the mouth of Jin, and took Chun Shenjun and his party to the pavilion. Chun Shenjun immediately invited Pingyuanjun to rest in a mansion outside the city, Pingyuanjun said a few words, and then took the doorman on the boat and went to Chunshenjun's house together.

Chunshenjun's mansion, said to be a mansion, is actually a very strong small city, and a trench is dug out of the water. Embark on the shore from Jinkou and walk into the city.

The retainers who greeted him at the gate bowed and saluted. Chun Shenjun introduced: "Zhao Gongzi Pingyuanjun, and Mr. Zhong, will be stationed here, and you will wait for good students!" ”

The retainer immediately saluted Pingyuan Jun and said, "Minister, Zai, but there is a call, don't dare to be late!" ”

Pingyuanjun also replied: "Tired of the housekeeper! ”

Chun Shenjun said: "Are all rooms fully prepared?" ”

Zai Xi said: "On the orders of the king, the main hall and the main room have been cleaned and cleaned, and several cases have been prepared. Chunshenjun then invited Pingyuanjun into the city.

When the group entered the city, a group of retainers were already lined up inside the door, and they all bowed their hands.

A small river runs through the city, forming a pond with pavilions, flowers and trees, which are beautiful. Chun Shenjun's residence is on a high platform not far away, majestic and magnificent. There are other houses scattered around, ranging from high terraces to stilted buildings, and they are supposed to be the residence of the retainers.

Entering the house, it is also divided into the front hall and the back house, but according to the rules of the Chu people, the back house is built on a higher pedestal, and there are several steps to go up. There is a large area of martial arts arena under the pedestal, which can also be used as a courtyard for feasting and drinking. Climbing the steps, the scale of the front hall is not small, there are always twenty or thirty large and small rooms. Entering the hall, the window is bright and clean, which is obviously different from the dark feeling in the north, and there is a plate of potted plants on the front case, and a few green bamboos are slim. Chun Shenjun took Pingyuan Jun and his entourage to check room by room, all of them were neat and bright, and the beautiful scenery outside could be seen by pushing the window, and the summer heat was swept away.

Chun Shenjun took Pingyuanjun and his party again, went up the steps, and came to the back house. Pingyuan Jun was suddenly stunned by the scene in front of him: there were dozens of beauties in Chu costumes standing behind the steps. When they went up the steps, they didn't pay attention because of the obstruction of the rocks, and when they got up the steps, the unexpected visual impact made many customers marvel.

Chun Shenjun said: "The minister supports his own family, and his voice is not enough for the gentleman, so he can entertain his ears and eyes!" ”

Pingyuan Jun didn't dare to continue to move forward, and hurriedly saluted: "How dare you accept the generous gift of the king!" ”

A woman at the head came over and said, "The concubine respectfully inherits the king!" ”

Chun Shenjun said: "Zhao Gongzi Pingyuan Junsheng, silk and bamboo singing and dancing, don't ignore it!" ”

The woman saluted the plain king and said, "Teach Mu Jue, worship the son!" ”

Pingyuanjun hurriedly avoided the side and said, "How dare you!" ”

Chun Shenjun saw that Pingyuanjun was cramped, and said to Mu Jue: "You wait and play music by yourself." Then he led Pingyuanjun and his party down the steps and returned to the main hall. Soon, there was a soft, melodious sound of silk and bamboo from above.

In the sound of silk and bamboo, Chun Shenjun and Pingyuan Jun talked happily, traveled through the mountains and rivers in the city, until the smoke curled, and the group returned to the lobby and had dinner together. During dinner, not only melodious music can be heard, but also a group of dancers dance in front of the hall.

In the evening, Chun Shenjun resigned and made an appointment to meet again. The retainers cooked the soup and invited the plain king and all the guests to bathe. Twenty people were divided into five teams, each bathing in a corner in front of the hall, and a retainer waited at the bottom of the stairs. Pingyuan-kun alone served an urn of soup, and Jae-hee personally served the bath.

After all kinds of bathing, Zai Xi took a large stack of bamboo sticks, on which were written the tortuous Chu book, and presented it to Pingyuan Jun. Pingyuanjun didn't know what he meant, and asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Zai Xi said: "Chu Nu is thin-faced, and she doesn't dare to go to Ren Jun to pick it up, but the title of the book is on it, and the king is interested in it, but it is okay to sign it!" ”

Pingyuan Jun was a little surprised, pointed to the back house and said, "Girls? ”

Zai Xi said: "The daughter of the family is not enough to be gracious, but she is a pillow!" ”

Hirahara-kun was amused, so he took a random lot. Zai Xi did not give up, and sent the bamboo sticks to the guests one by one, some of them were restrained, and some of them refused politely. Zai Xi turned around, asked the person who did not draw the lot to go back to the room first, and the one who took the lot held the sign in his hand, and rushed out with the name, and then took the remaining bamboo sticks to the back house. When he was young, Yan Yan Yingying, a group of beautiful women came down, each found their own name tag, and sat next to the person.

Mu Jue shouted, "And recommend the pillow seat!" The women each helped the man beside him, got up and went to their rooms! Although Pingyuan Jun is also a noble son, he has thought of such a generous heart, and there is a kind of comparison in his heart.

The next day, Chun Shenjun arrived as promised, and also brought a group of doormen to talk with Pingyuanjun's doormen. Chun Shenjun and Pingyuanjun sat down in the hall, and all the guests sat down in turn. Chun Shenjun first expressed his honor to the arrival of Pingyuanjun and the honor to be able to get to know Mr. Zhu; Then he expressed his sympathy and admiration for Zhao's heroic resistance to Qin, and finally said that his country's capital had fallen, his family and country had fallen, his ancestral tomb was uneasy, and he had a common experience with Zhao and felt the suffering of Zhao. The words are hot, but there is no actual content.
