Eighty-three: Cheer and arrive at Kaiyang
Chapter 83
As soon as the group arrived at the foot of the city gate, a group of people similar to the greeting team was waiting there in the distance.
As soon as the carriage approached, he began to beat gongs and drums, and the suona in his mouth was also blown very loudly, just like the scene of Zhu Bajie marrying.
"Brother Fan, who is this going to marry?" Liu Cong was quite happy to see the excitement.
Fan Shijin saw this grand occasion and looked at the east and west, this is not a team to welcome relatives, there are many people under the city wall, but they are in a hurry, and they are not like people who want to marry and send relatives.
"I haven't seen the groom yet!" Xiong Jingchong was also very curious.
As soon as the carriage was about to pass, it was surrounded by this group of people, and the sound of gongs and drums seemed to come out of the ears, and every few times there was a suona sound, one after another, endlessly.
"You're mistaken, I'm not married!" Fan Shijin said as he walked outside the carriage.
When the team beating gongs and drums saw Fan Shijin say this, the guys in their hands stopped, but it didn't stop for long, and it sounded again, and someone in the crowd could be heard shouting: "Welcome the envoy of Shu to my Langya!"
Wei Shujin and his horse were also at a loss, they all looked at Fan Shijin, and then teased: "Brother Fan's prestige is on fire in the entire eastern region!"
This Langya country is controlled by the Zhuge clan, and the people of this country are familiar with Zhuge Liang's life and deeds, so they are naturally full of enthusiasm for this Shu country.
"Bring the envoy of Shu into the city!" The greeters shouted.
Then the team of gongs and drums opened in front, while not forgetting to beat the instrument while walking neatly in front, the faces of the soldiers at this level were also full of happiness, and they didn't even do anything to check a few people, and directly let this group of people into this Kaiyang City. This time Wei Shujin is completely convinced, as early as Jianye has heard that the envoy of Shu has been blessed by the Dragon King, although he has not seen it with his own eyes, but he has heard of it. When I saw it today, it was really unusual, this dragon lord did not come to open the way, but the people of this Langya country consciously gave up a way.
The opening of this day is very lively, the voices are boiling, the crowded crowd on the street, the people on the pavilion are full of people, all look at the envoys of Shu who came into the city, flowers and applause bloom together, a group of people with flowers on their heads, hear applause, and the sight is crowded with crowds.
Uncle Wei will smile when he enters this meeting, this is the way to enter the city, this is clearly the courtesy of which soldier who returned triumphantly, he is loyal to his duties in the frontier, and he has not received such treatment when he returns to the city, and he is generally supported by the people only after making a first-class meritorious service, this is the moment of prestige, and the person who accepts such courtesy, even if it is not as famous as it is recorded in history, can also be a household name in this Kaiyang City.
I don't know if it was the cheers of people or something else, the oncoming wind was very comfortable, like the sea breeze blowing from a city on the sea, caressing people's cheeks and ruffling people's hair.
"Brother Fan... What's going on...?" Liu Cong was stunned by the scene in front of him.
Fan Shijin's face was like a flower, and when he saw Liu Cong shouting, he turned around and said, "Although I don't know what the situation is, this should be specially to welcome us!"
The envoy of Shu came to the palace surrounded by a group of people, and the cheers were already much quieter when they arrived at the palace, and even the team of people who played and sang no longer pulled the strings, and it seemed that they should be tired.
The momentum of this palace is not like the streets and alleys, * dignified standing in front of a few people, and it has a force to attract a few people, as if this palace is bubbling with purple breath, the purple gas is very different from the sharp breath of the smelling stars, it is the purple gas that has only been available since ancient times.
Liu Cong rubbed his eyes, and then looked at it, the purple qi was gone, and what was in front of him at this time was just a high-rise palace under the blue sky and white clouds.
"Envoys, please come with me. The soldier in front of the palace said respectfully.
The treatment of this Langya country, compared with the previous countries, is simply much better, not as a messenger, but as an extremely distinguished guest to treat, a group of people in the whole city in the cheers of the people of the city to this palace.
"But Brother Fan... Do I have a plan like this?" Liu whispered.
Fan Shijin whispered: "I was confused by the people in this city, and the ghost envoy came with me... If you don't say that I have forgotten, I am here to borrow the Tao..."
Uncle Wei is calm and light-hearted, with a smile on his face, he is indeed unofficial, not only watching the scenery and enjoying the flowers all the way, tasting the food from all over the world, feeling different human geography, and from time to time he can also come out with a few ruthless characters to accompany him to practice, this trip is worth it.
A few people can be taken to a palace by the soldiers, this palace is not luxurious, it is indeed an extremely simple and low-key type, there are a lot of carved gallery painting walls, the dragon and phoenix auspicious patterns are also everything, plus the sun, moon and stars on the top of the ceiling, it can be said that it satisfies the pursuit of the design of their own palace by ancient and modern emperors.
When I entered this palace, I didn't see anyone else, just a few palace maids and eunuchs waiting together, and I didn't see the princes and generals, let alone the civil and military officials.
"Your envoy will sit down for a while, and the king of Langya will come in a while. The soldier took a few steps back, then turned and walked away.
These few people were dumbfounded, this empty palace, where is it appropriate for them to sit? Is it close to this door and window, or close to this place of the throne? I couldn't get an answer for a while, this Fan Shijin simply pulled a few people to sit in the middle position, and it was very comfortable, neither on the side, nor near the throne, this is a place where both sides can talk, and everywhere can be toasted, Fan Shijin is very satisfied with his choice.
Soon there was the sound of footsteps in the temple, and it was the footsteps of several men, not from outside, but from behind the throne. Sure enough, a man in a luxurious yellow robe walked out of it, followed by two palace maids, Two eunuchs, Zhuge Lin walked to the edge of the throne, turned to face a few people, and then sat down, today this Zhuge Lin did not wear the curtain crown, just an ordinary crown, this sat down The whole palace seems to come to life, the golden place has become more golden, everything has the meaning of awakening, and then look at Zhuge Lin who is sitting in danger, that face is a young face, but a dragon horn was born on the forehead of that face, seeing that half of the face became a dragon, Fan Shijin did not sit firmly at once, and fell... wiped his sweat and looked at Zhuge Lin again, the dragon horns and dragon face disappeared, and then looked at the few people around him, all of them looked at themselves blankly.
"Didn't sit still..."Fan Shijin muttered quietly.
Zhuge Linke looked over, that face was very upright, the lips were very thin, the eyebrows were very clear, and the facial features were very good, I don't know if it was because of his status, or because he was really handsome, everyone at the bottom felt that this Zhuge Lin was born a talent.
"Is Envoy Fan okay?" the thin lips began.
Fan Shijin was about to get up and leave the banquet, and when he knelt in front, Zhuge Lin waved his hand, signaling Fan Shijin to avoid this red tape. This Fan Shijin had no choice but to shrink back the body that was about to get up, and then said: "Xie Wang cares, the villain is fine." ”
Just as Fan Shijin finished saying this, people entered this palace one after another, seeing that this dress should be a civil and military official, and after a while, the palace was full.
"Ladies and gentlemen, today is the noble envoy of Shu to come to my Langya, we should treat each other with courtesy, and we must not neglect the Shu envoy. Zhuge preached condescendingly.
"Obey the order!" replied the hundred officials below.
Fan Shijin still couldn't figure it out, he didn't know the intention of this King Langya to invite him, and he didn't dare to ask casually, so he could only sit in the banquet and wait for this King Langya to ask questions first.
Zhuge Lin seemed to see Fan Shijin's concern, so he asked, "Is it okay for Fan Envoy to see my Langya land?"
"Back to the king, Langya is an outstanding person, the scenery is gorgeous, whether it is to live or travel, it is an excellent land. Fan Shijin said again and again.
Zhuge Lin was smiling at Fan Shijin's words, and then said: "The people of my Langya land all admire the brotherhood of Liu Guanzhang and the three of them, and even admire You Jia for Wolong Zhuge Kongming, so the arrival of the noble envoy will make the people of Langya so boiling, and it will also make my Langya prosperous." ”
"At that time, Mr. Zhuge worked hard and devoted himself to recovering the Central Plains and reviving the Han Dynasty, and he was a model for my generation. Of course, Fan Shijin could hear what Zhuge Lin meant.
"Hahaha! Aiqing in the audience knows that he has left Qishan six times, why did he return from the Northern Expedition several times in vain?" Zhuge Lin looked at the military officials below.
Can the military officials below not know the reason? It's just that it's hard to explain. The times create heroes, success is also the times, and defeat is also the times. The dispute between Wolong Zhuge Kong Ming and Tomb Tiger Sima Zhongda, in the end, Zhongda survived Kong Ming.
Fan Shijin opened his mouth and said: "Of course, Sima Zhongda has a long life, and he has survived this Zhuge Kongming, so he should usually exercise more, play five poultry dramas diligently, and be as smart and talented as Prime Minister Zhuge Cheng, if you take care of your body, you will be able to unify the world." ”
"Okay! Wonderful! Fan Envoy is really intellectual!" Zhuge Lin was very satisfied with Fan Shijin's answer.
At this time, Wang Shaozhi, who was sitting at the bottom, opened his mouth and asked: "Shu is running for the two countries, in order to unite the two countries and help Shu get out of danger, why don't you find me Langya to unite?"
"Eh! Why did Wang Aiqing talk like that!" Zhuge Lin looked at Wang Shaozhi and said.
The cooperation between these two monarchs and ministers is quite tacit, and Wang Shaozhi's timing of insertion is also quite good, just like the singing on the stage, one sings with a red face and the other with a white face.
This hot potato was thrown over, Fan Shijin had to take it well, if this was not connected, today's wedding banquet would probably become a Hongmen banquet.
Uncle Wei glanced in the direction of Fan Shijin, this Fan Shijin's eyes flashed left and right, and he should be turning his brain rapidly.
"Back to this adult's words, my Shu is thousands of miles away, I have heard of Langya country, but I know little about the movement of Langya country, if I knew that Langya country has such friendship with my Shu, but thousands of miles, even if it is thousands of miles away, I will wait for gifts to come to show friendship. Xiong Jingyi caught the hot potato.
Zhuge Lin sat on the throne and nodded heavily, but he didn't mean to speak, and looked at Wang Shaozhi again.
Wang Shaozhi thought so, and then said: "Although my Langya is sparsely populated, and there are natural barriers, mountains and seas surround, it is very similar to Shudi, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and my land is in the key place of the Northern Zhou Dynasty.
This Uncle Wei couldn't listen to it anymore, and muttered in his heart: You big fart place, you also want to chase the Central Plains? I haven't spoken in the Southern Tang Dynasty, and your ambition in this projectile land is not small.
Fan Shijin has figured out the intentions of this Langya country now, and the current Zhuge Lin has the ambition to dominate the industry, coupled with his clever strategy, it is unknown what kind of development will be in the future.
"If Langya intends to make friends with my Shu, you can agree verbally and report it to the King of Shu after returning to China!" Xiong Jingchong said with his fists cupped.
The ministers below began to talk about it, and I don't know which one of them said inconspicuously: "Who are you?
"In the Hou Shu Xiong Maozhen's son, Xiong Jingyi!" Xiong Jingchong said not to be outdone.
As soon as these words came out, the voices of discussion below were even worse, and even Zhuge Lin couldn't sit still, this Xiong Maozhen's status in Shu was very important. No one thought that his son would come as an envoy to several countries.
