Chapter 8 Grand Event
Jingzhou suddenly caused a major shock at the level of scholars.
Sima Decao, Pang Degong and Miannan celebrity Huang Chengyan, who had not been moved for a long time, suddenly decided to hold a grand event in Xiangyang and invite Jingzhou Junjie to the banquet together...
It is said that it was the matter of the cooperation between the Huang family of Kuai Bang and the Huang family.
Not only that, they also wrote a letter of invitation to send to each family, hoping that the younger generations in their families could join in.
Of course, the first invitation was sent to the Jingzhou Governor Liu Jingsheng.
At the same time, he was invited as an elder to comment on many scholars, and also invited many famous scholars in Jingzhou, such as Yiji, a native of Shanyang...
Such a grand event seemed like a banquet, but in fact everyone knew it well, and it was about to be visible to some people.
The Jingzhou family forces were intricate, and the day after the news came out, the matter between Zhuge Kongming and Liu Xuande was dug up completely.
Although I feel that Zhuge Liang is so bold, I have no intention of opposing it.
Guan Yu next to Zhuge Kongming was very confused about this.
"Sir, I'm really not worried that Liu Jingsheng will cause trouble from it?"
Now everyone in Jingzhou knows that this matter is related to us, so Liu Jingsheng is quite afraid of us.
If Liu Jingsheng really intervened in the matter and wanted to destroy this, the lord might have face damage..."
"It's a good thing for General Guan to have such thoughts, but this time you're over-thinking.
As a place where literary style is prosperous, Jingzhou needs such a grand event to establish its identity and status, both famous scholars who avoid disasters and children of various families.
Even if they do not intend to have anything to do with Liu Jingsheng from Jingzhou, this is the same.
This is a rare opportunity to become famous.
Celebrities need to prove their talents so that they can gain respect and status in this troubled times.
The juniors of the aristocratic family also need this time to gain a reputation for them, and no matter which party they are invested in in the future, they will have a better development.
Now that wars are frequent, it is no longer realistic to travel around the world. The only way is to make your own reputation in your hometown.
The one with some reputation in Jingzhou is now Pangzi's Saint Yuan.
But the other companies cannot fall into the trap after they fall into the crowd. There are many people who want to take this opportunity to get comments from a famous scholar.
As for Liu Jingsheng, he neither dared to turn against these people directly, but also needed to raise his reputation and gain more support from him.
This event is an opportunity for the lord, but it is also an opportunity for others."
"But... there are many famous scholars in Jingzhou, so the lord can really..."
"Yes!" Kong Ming nodded with great certainty, "In Liang's eyes, the lord is the real hero in the world!"
Guan Yu looked at Kong Ming with a sincere look on his face, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.
How could this young man who had only met his elder brother a few times have such great confidence in his elder brother... Even if he and Yide were not so firm in this confidence, they might not be so firm.
Of course, they will still follow their elder brother forever, no matter what the result is!
"Since Kong Ming said so, Guan will stop talking more."
"Well...but we have to go to Xiangyang this time."
"Go to Xiangyang?"
"Well, when you meet someone, you can help the lord foolproof."
"Didn't you just say that your lord is fine?"
"Well, it's okay now!"
“….”
In July of the eighth year of Jian'an, there was a peaceful atmosphere in the city of Xiangyang, and countless scholars came to Xiangyang to participate in the grand ceremony.
Liu Biao specially built a high platform to be responsible for such grand events, which can be said to have engraved the words "host" directly in everyone's hearts.
Liu Bei also came to Xiangyang with Kong Ming and others to meet with Chen Dao and Liu Yan.
"Brother Jingsheng is worthy of being the lord of Jingzhou. Although Kong Ming raised this grand event, his few small actions made everyone in Jingzhou feel that he is the lord of this place.
Such a skill really makes Bei admire him.”
Although Liu Bei said this, what Kong Ming saw in his eyes was not only the so-called admiration, but also the trace of desire.
He longed for all this to be done by Liu Bei, and he longed for him to replace it... but he suppressed this hint of desire very well.
"My lord, don't worry, this place in Jingzhou is destined to be the foundation for the lord to support the Han Dynasty.
Liu Jingsheng is no longer the worldly hero who rode alone in Yicheng back then. At this time, he only knows these small tricks."
"Kong Ming knew what he wanted, but he was just feeling a little moved when he saw Brother Jingsheng... he thought about his wasted years.
As for Jingzhou, I will never go against my conscience when I get it."
After saying that, Liu Bei walked firmly to the high platform and looked at Liu Biao with a spring breeze on his face to take the lead in salute.
"I'm going to pay a visit to Liu Jingzhou."
"How come Brother Xuande is so polite? Since Brother Xuande won last year, you and me have not seen each other for a long time.
Are you still used to it now in Wancheng?”
Liu Biao asked this, making Guan Yu and Chen Dao, who were behind Liu Bei, want to rush up and punch him directly.
Liu Jingsheng and Cai Mao are still not sure about how life in Wancheng is.
In order to prevent Liu Bei from becoming bigger, whether it is food or supplies, it is really possible to get stuck, so that they can face the counterattack of Xiahou Dun and others in Wancheng.
On the other hand, he had to humble himself and try every means to ask for enough food and grass from Cai Mao.
If it weren't for Liu Bei's suppression of the generals, Wancheng would have had a stir.
However, all this was completely unaware of Liu Bei's face. After hearing Liu Biao take the initiative to mention Wancheng, Liu Bei looked calm and peaceful.
"Protecting the safety of the people in one place is just my duty. What are the habits or not?
Brother Jingsheng is also busy with business in Jingzhou. Compared with Brother Jingsheng, what is the point of preparing for this matter?"
"Hahaha..." Liu Biao had already prepared for Liu Bei's reaction. He shook his sleeves and then sent an invitation to Liu Bei.
"Xuande is a guest of honor in Jingzhou, and he must attend the seat!"
"Brother Jingsheng is the lord of Jingzhou, so please ask Brother Jingsheng for it first!"
"You and I come in hand in hand, how can we divide each other?" After Liu Biao finished speaking, he grabbed Liu Bei's arm, and then the two of them walked towards the main position of the high platform with the salutes of the famous scholars and many scholars in Jingzhou.
After the two of them took their seats, other celebrities and children from various families also slowly found their own positions.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Biao raised his wine and invited him to worship the world. The event officially began.
And during this grand event, Liu Bei always looked calm, and was not in a hurry or taking the initiative, as if he was really just coming to the banquet.
Until someone took the initiative to stand up and asked Liu Bei the premeditated question.
"Today is a grand event in Jingzhou. I wonder why Duke Xuande came?"
