After tugging at the door for a while, Ji Boxiao felt that this Yang master might still want to come to the fireside banquet in his heart.

After all, the prince is not a person who refuses guests, he has always liked to be lively, especially after the dinner party, drinking and having fun with others, tasting characters, Zhang Han likes to listen to it very much, as for hearing the wonderful heart, he will always ask meticulously.

As a result, Zhang Han's knowledge also grew rapidly during this period.

With a new friend coming at this moment, Ji Boxiao knew that Zhang Han would not refuse.

So he took Yang Xiu into the gate, after walking a short street for a mile, he went up the stairs to the gate fang, the door fang extends in all directions, and the mansions are all over the mountainside, Zhang's house is remote, in fact, it is not in the city, it is at the end of Suzaku Street, there was originally a hill here, Zhang Han's mansion is built by the mountain.

The terrain of the hill is not too high, at most it is a hill, so it can be paved with bluestone pavement, walking through the road, like a street, in the lower part, there are three or four storey attics, towers, to store books, or to climb high and look into the distance.

Walk through the door, straight up, more than ten steps, is the long drive to the main courtyard, after the door is a spacious martial arts arena, all kinds of weapons are placed on both sides, Zhang Han in Wancheng to kill the Quartet's blade "big root" is hung in the middle, it is a gong that costs eighty pounds of precious heavy iron to build.

It is now deprecated.

Because it is inconvenient to carry, he can only carry it on his back or hold it, and Zhang Han now likes to carry a knife when he travels in Shaoqing's military uniform.

Walk through the courtyard of the martial arts, along the corridor and around, just in front is the wing room that enters the main hall, and then enter one of the sides three zhang long, one or two zhang wide huge stone table comes into view, half a person high, there is a rockery and fake water on it, and a flag of the size of a hand is inserted.

"Is this the fireplace?" Yang Xiu's eyes lit up, and he could see the subtleties at a glance, which was much better than looking directly at the map, and he had the feeling of Emperor Guangwu back then-"captured in my eyes".

"In the eighth year of the establishment of the Han Dynasty, when Emperor Guangwu conquered Tianshui and Wudu, the general Ma Yuan 'gathered rice for the valley and pointed to the situation', which was to look at it and have a sense in the eyes.

"Today, I can see Zhang Hou's mansion on this plate, the mountains and rivers are all intertwined, quite meticulous, and there should be a strict comparison with the field, it should be built by skilled craftsmen," Yang Xiu's expression at the moment is more leisurely, and he also tells a lot of prehistory.

Ji Boxiao nodded slightly when he heard this, "It turns out that there is such a long history, Master Yang is erudite." ”

Yang Xiu smiled lightly, was welcomed to the courtyard and waited, the courtyard is located in a high place, blue sky and white clouds, the environment is beautiful, the mountains and fields can be seen in the distance, and there are faint people working and plowing cattle slowly.

"It's a great place."

"Master Yang is here for a while, and I will invite you again when the dinner begins."

"There is labor."

Yang Xiu was still proud at this time, he had been accustomed to seeing major banquets since he was a child, and he knew that such a banquet with such characters must be prepared in advance.

For example, when waiting for a topic that may be discussed, you should secretly make a decision in your heart and be ready to get up and answer at any time; Or, when drinking and having fun, someone should write a poem, or you can guess and prepare the verse.

Therefore, Yang Xiu still has plenty of time to prepare, after all, it has just sunset, and there is at least half an hour left to prepare for the banquet.

However, the main courtyard is already very lively, and today Guo Jia looks at the sand table, and it is so delicately done, he has already come to be interested in deducing it.

However, I don't know where this sand table was made, and in the upper left part is a large city in the plain.

After Ji Boxiao came to report, Zhang Han tilted his head and glanced at him, and said suspiciously: "Don't go?" What is he doing in my house if he doesn't leave? ”

"I don't know...... Ji Boxiao's face was aggrieved, "I have already said it quite tactfully, the prince is busy, but I see that he still wants to come to a dinner party......"

"Okay, let's have more bowls and chopsticks, and after the lieutenant general in the front yard leaves, I'll invite him to the main courtyard to sit down."

"Yui."

In the evening, the banquet began, the wine was happy, Zhang Han respected the Wenwu wine, and praised his hard work with good words, the guests and hosts were happy, and drank for an hour.

Banqueting soldiers is Zhang Han's consistent habit, and the generals and colonels in the army work hard, especially the soldiers and horses stationed in the army, who are training and patrolling every day, but they have no major merits, and it is difficult to make a name for themselves.

The elites selected from the army have all gone to make meritorious contributions, and those who have not been selected may not be wasted, Zhang Han appeased them with a banquet, and they were able to drink and leave every time, which was to be grateful to Zhang Han at the same time.

Cao Ang, the eldest prince at the same table, gradually became known, and was admired by these soldiers and horses, and from time to time he would come to toast and get closer to him.

After they left, Jia Xu pulled Zhang Han to the side and sat under the eaves, speaking earnestly, and even saying something bitterly.

Dian Wei They saw it from a distance, but when they saw Zhang Han waving his hand from afar, they didn't care about them, Guo Jia still looked up a few times from time to time.

But seeing that Zhang Han's face gradually changed from confused to relaxed and smiling, and finally like a spring breeze as if he had something to do, he was itchy for a while and wanted to ask immediately.

Leaning towards Russia, Zhang Han got up and went to the side courtyard and walked briskly.

After Jia Xu sat down, Guo Jia immediately asked, Jia Xu smiled mysteriously, gently picked up the wine, and said leisurely: "Don't panic about the sacrificial wine, tomorrow, the sacrificial wine will be known, this is an excellent situation to send to the door." ”

Guo Jia's face darkened, and he said in a deep voice: "Dian Wei, take Jia to join the army for training!" ”

"Hey, alas, don't don't don't ......" Jia Xu was in a dilemma, hurriedly waved his hand, and then the whole Wen Jing's indifferent expression collapsed in an instant, and said with a bitter face: "Don't do this to me." ”

I've really done evil in my last life, and I've met you scoundrels! It's just a mountain bandit, I didn't have to be so aggrieved when I was with Li Dao and Guo Yan!

"It's really hard to say about this matter for the time being, if I say it, the impact may be huge, at the latest when the banquet is over, I will explain it to the sacrificial wine, how about it?"

Dian Wei looked at Guo Jia, Guo Jia nodded secretly, and drank by himself.

So Dian Wei scratched his head and sat down with a smile, he didn't listen to Guo Jia's orders, he simply liked to toss Jia Xu, especially, when Jia Xu resisted and scolded more and more, Dian Wei became more excited.

"Come, come, drink, drink."

The main courtyard resounded with the sound of drinking and merrymaking.

At this time, Yang Xiu, who was in the side courtyard, was already so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back, and his lips were a little dry and white.

Of course, there will be no good face, a wave of anger and grievance is brewing on his face, and he feels that he has been treated slowly.

My Yang Xiu hairpin house, rarely famous, talented, and intelligent, after being recruited as the master of the Sikong Mansion, he is even more meticulous in everything, and never slackens.

Even Sikong praised me for being more capable than the previous two chief bookkeepers, but I didn't expect to be humiliated by Zhang Han like this today.

If I knew I wouldn't come.

"Long wait, Dezu."

"Ah, no," a smile suddenly appeared on Yang Xiu's face, he had been slandering, but as soon as Zhang Han smiled and spoke, he inexplicably smiled politely and replied politely.

"That's the case," Zhang Han looked at him very sincerely, "Today's banquet on the eve is actually to invite soldiers who have made meritorious contributions in the army, if Dezu is here, it is inevitable that they will be a little restrained, so it is better to let them speak freely." ”

"Most of these people are the children of Cao Gong, and the other half are from Qingzhou soldiers, and Dezu is the master of Sikong Mansion and the Hongnong Yang family, they definitely don't dare to speak loudly."

"What the prince said is extremely true," Yang Xiu suddenly understood, no wonder he had waited so long, "This is still for the sake of the prince and the marquis, if I hear the private words of the soldiers in the army, it will not be good, it will only make them more worried." ”

Zhang Han is still a real person, and he has invited banquets like this, in fact, it is not only to protect me, but also to protect the words of the officers and men in the army, which is very measured.

Yang Xiu wanted to understand this section, so he unconsciously had a great impression of Zhang Han.

"Well," Zhang Han nodded, "It's easy to talk to Mingming, let's go, come with me into the main courtyard, and then have a banquet." ”

"Today, according to the terrain of Huainan in Yangzhou, I made a military strategic table, and we went to drink and talk together, and listen to their high opinions!"

"Okay," Yang Xiu's eyes lit up, but he was interested, he had heard that the civil and military forces in this fireside dinner were all people with outstanding talents, or they were really people with countless achievements.

I have waited for so long today, and it is rare for this prince to be so upright, so I naturally want to see it.

That night, Guo Jia and Cheng Yu analyzed the situation in Huainan, each of them "talked on paper", which was wonderful, and when the wine was strong, they even set up a self-immolation barracks to lead the soldiers and horses in Shouchun City to attack.

There is also a secret alliance with Sun Ce, with the edict of the Son of Heaven to solicit righteousness, and the plan to divide the external relations of Jiujiang.

Seeing that Yang Xiu was thoughtful, his thoughts were uneven all night, and he was thinking deeply, but there were too many strategies and a lot of soldiers and horses dispatched, so he didn't have time to think about anything else, as if the whole person was immersed in it.

Until midnight, because Zhang Han wanted to go back to the backyard to sleep, the road was far away, so he began to rush people.

They could only disperse in a daze, but everyone also agreed to fight again next time, and they were determined to capture Shouchun, and tonight they had exchanged strategies, troops on both sides, and intelligence in the army, and many possibilities had been imagined.

Guo Jia and Cheng Yu looked harmonious, laughed and stopped, it is estimated that after going back, they will stay awake all night, secretly thinking about strategies.

Yang Xiu also opened his mind, and at the same time, when he found free time, he quietly informed him of his thoughts.

At this moment, his heart is surging and his thoughts are full of thoughts, and he is not expected to fall asleep immediately after he goes back, and he is destined to be sleepless tonight.

In the corner of the courtyard, Guo Jia and Dian Wei forced Jia Xu to the corner of the wall and pressed him against the wall as if they were bullying...... It's like asking something.

Throughout the night, it gradually became quiet, and soon it became peaceful.

……

On the second day, Cao Cao asked Liu Xie, the son of heaven, to explain the recent situation in Huainan, Yangzhou.

Yuan Shu's intention to usurp is already obvious, and it is estimated that it will be announced to the world in some time.

Liu Xie was furious when he heard this, and gave all the nominal "generals" to Cao Cao, ordering him to deploy in advance, prepare for them, and be sure to sweep away the usurpers.

There is no Dong Cheng and Fu Wan's Changle Palace, which is also quiet and quiet, and there is no more evil words and rivalry.

When the dynasty was dispersed, Cao Cao and Yang Biao walked together, full of spring breeze and calm expressions, and the two also walked slowly, talking about the expedition to Yangzhou.

"Your Majesty led the army to rebel against me, and asked Yuan Shu about the crime of trying to stand on his own, and the elite of my Chinese army must all be taken away, and I can only keep Zilian and Yuan Rang two troops and horses to garrison Hanoi and Dong County."

"As for Yingchuan, especially in the Imperial City of Xudu, all the ministers and scholars respect you Taiwei Yang, so that the rear of our army can rely on Your Excellency."

Yang Biao was elegant, his wrinkles gradually deepened, his left hand twisted his chin and beard, and he said suspiciously: "There are Xun Lingjun and Xifu Jun, and Dali Temple is based on fairness, and it is governed by Zhong Siqing and Zhang Shaoqing to be named Xudu, and the people love it, what can I do?" ”

"Hehe, humble," Cao Cao patted him on the back naturally, and continued while descending the stairs: "The fame of the public, the crown of scholars, the illustrious family background, and the leader of a hundred years. ”

"With you to stabilize the court, it will be truly stable," Cao Cao's words were heartfelt, but Yang Biao felt very bizarre, ordinary two people don't talk much, and the relationship is not a friend.

It's just that he is an official in the same dynasty, and Yang Biao has been very knowledgeable about protecting himself recently, since he saw the situation clearly, he never provoked Cao Cao, abided by his duty, and completed his part every day.

Why didn't Cao Cao suddenly go with him today, and talked to him about this kind of thing.

At the very least, does this have to be a heart-to-heart message that can only be trusted by mutual admiration among colleagues, or an alliance between each other for many years?

Yang Biao shook his head almost imperceptibly, and said with a smile: "Sikong's words are serious, I am above the court, and I only dare to promise to be loyal to my duties, do my best to do my part, and not lose my duty." ”

They are all old men in the court, and these words can be said without leakage, although he thinks it is strange, but he will not give Cao Cao a chance to catch the handle.

Yang Biao's face is not kind, his face is flat, he is not angry and arrogant, and his complexion is slightly dark, so he always looks extremely majestic.

Even when facing Cao Cao, it seems to outsiders that the momentum on the faces of the two is equally divided.

"Hmm," Cao Cao glanced at the corner of his mouth and said, "I heard before that it was common for the Hongnong Yang family and the Yuan family to intermarry quickly, but recently the school sent a statement, clearly saying that Yang Biao's wife is the sister of Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao's clan. ”

Yang Biao's footsteps suddenly stopped, and he looked coldly at Cao Cao's side face, then his back, and then his face with a relaxed smile.

"Captain?" Cao Cao called softly.

Yang Biao immediately gave up his hand and said: "Although there are Yuan's in-laws, they have never communicated with each other, so they should not be gullible and slanderous, and they should still be aware of everything." ”

"Hey," Cao Cao pulled him and continued to walk forward, "How can I be this kind of person who is framed and framed?" After I heard about this relationship, I told Xi Zhong that the Yang family began with the five marquis of the split corpse and started from the great achievements of the early Han Dynasty. ”

The so-called five marquis of the split corpse are the five heroes who snatched Xiang Yu's body by the Wujiang River back then, and they were awarded the title of five marquis, which is an allusion.

"And the Yang family, later out of the Kansai Confucius, Mr. Sizhi such figures, a hundred years of reputation, although fighting for the general trend, but disdain to conspire."

"Otherwise, why are they both famous families in Tokyo, and the Yuan brothers are out for the princes, while you, Yang Biao, still don't abandon Your Majesty?"

"It's just because you Hongnong Yang clan make friends with Qing Confucianism and don't touch the right."

"Right?"

Cao Cao knew so well, and was willing to believe in their backbone, which already gave Yang Biao a lot of face.

Yang Biao's face was relieved, and he suddenly showed a slight smile, their Yang family really only interacts with Confucianism, and they have their own backbone, and they will not easily make friends with wealthy families and businessmen, so as to humiliate their own family.

Some people scold it for being pedantic, and some people praise its reputation, but in fact, whether it is worth it or not is their own insistence.

If you can hold on, it will naturally be a strong stroke on the historical picture, and if you can't hold on, it will be a joke.

Yang Biao breathed a long sigh of relief and looked at Cao Cao, since he had doubts in his heart, it was better to ask clearly at this time: "Sikong, please make it clear, why did you mention these just now?" ”
