Chapter 73 Banquet

Guo Jia's illness was not serious. He just drank too much and damaged his liver. If he could stop drinking and take good care of himself, he might be cured. But it was more difficult for Guo Jia to stop drinking than to stop eating. Hua Tuo repeatedly tried to dissuade him.

Guo Jiaze laughed: "This wine is my lifeblood. If you don't drink, you will be a man in vain! Hahaha..."

After living in Chang'an for a few days, Guo Jia finally thought of looking for Xu Shu. Long Fei dismissed Guo Jia's idea because Xu Shu had left. Guo Jia was so smart, how could he not guess that this was Long Fei's excuse. But

Since he was in the general's mansion and couldn't be too domineering, the only way was to stay put. Since Xu Shu was here, Guo Jia wanted to see if Xu Shu had really betrayed them.

Since Dong Zhuo came to Chang'an, he had escaped the siege of the princes outside the pass, and had the Liangzhou soldiers as his backing. He felt a lot relieved, and he became even more unscrupulous in the court. Liu Xie still had the look of obedience, as long as Dong Zhuo said yes, Liu Xie would

Xie Xie was not reluctant at all. This made the ministers who thought they were loyal to the Han Dynasty anxious.

Wang Yun came to find Long Fei in a hurry. He came from the back door. He was wearing a black cloak in the summer, wrapping himself like a mummy. Wang Wei was extremely well-behaved. All the servants in the house were sent by Dong Zhuo.

There must be Dong Zhuo's spies. Therefore, Wang Wei took Wang Yun directly into the woodshed to avoid the servants.

Long Fei walked in and took a look, hehehe laughed: "The dignified Lord Situ actually did such tricks and spread it to make people laugh out loud! Hahaha..."

"How long has it been and you're still laughing!" Wang Yun wiped the sweat from his face: "Your Majesty is on pins and needles now. If you don't take action, Dong Zhuo will proclaim himself emperor!"

"Don't worry! Dong Zhuo is not so bold!"

"That's not certain!" Wang Yun said angrily: "A few days ago, while you were away, Dong Zhuo forced His Majesty to issue an edict to grant the title of marquis to his own people. Even his infant children were granted the title of marquis, and he himself was granted the title of Meihou.

I sent Dong Min to Meiwu to build a palace and hoard food and grass. His ambition to become emperor is obvious, but you don’t know it! I spent money to invite you here! You can’t just take money and do nothing!”

"What good idea does Wang Situ have?" Long Fei had seen the Three Kingdoms and knew that Wang Yun had a trick, but he didn't know if it would be useful. Since his wife was Diao Chan, he thought it would be useless to Wang Yun.

"Hey!" Wang Yun sighed: "What can I do?"

"Haha! Wang Situ, we plain people don't tell secret stories. Don't you have a conspiracy plan? Why not use it?"

"What kind of chain plan? I don't understand!" Wang Yun looked stunned and obviously didn't know. Long Fei realized that he said the wrong thing. He guessed that it might be because his arrival disrupted the original development of the Three Kingdoms. Wang Yun

The protagonists of the serial plot have all gone to their own beds. It seems that the serial plot is really gone. Since it is gone, let’s create one.

Long Fei called Wang Yun over and told him the steps of the chain plan. When Wang Yun heard this, his eyes widened: "This! Putting the safety of the world in the hands of a woman, if the matter is exposed, it will not be as simple as killing one or two people."

!”

"I just have this method, it's up to you Wang Situ whether you use it or not!" Long Fei looked at Wang Yun. The old man's heart was in a state of confusion, and he was constantly struggling with his thoughts. After a long time, he said: "Then where should I find such a woman?

?”

Long Fei shook his head: "I don't know. This woman must not only be courageous, but also beautiful, and she must also have acting skills. I heard that there are many singing prostitutes in Wang Situ's house. Isn't it possible to find one?"

Dong Zhuo caused chaos in Chang'an, and chaos outside the customs. First, Gongsun Du, the governor of Liaodong, proclaimed himself Marquis of Liaodong. Yuan Shao captured Han Fu's Jizhou and became the governor of the state. Cao Cao occupied Dongjun, considered himself the governor of Dongjun, and fought with the Black Mountain Army.

The war was fierce. Liu Yu, the shepherd of Youzhou, was afraid of Gongsun Zan and settled him in Beiping. Yuan Shu left Nanyang for Yuzhou. With the support of the old officials of the Yuan family, he was attacking Yuan Yi in Yangzhou. Tao Qian, the shepherd of Xuzhou, was harassed by the remaining Yellow Turban party.

Ask for help. All the princes are constantly strengthening their own strength for their own selfish desires, preparing to become kings and hegemons in the future.

On this day, Dong Zhuo held a banquet in Taishi Mansion. All the officials were specially invited to attend, and Long Fei was naturally among them. The banquet was very large, and all officials from the entire Chang'an City were present. In the grand hall of Taishi Mansion, Xiao Ji and

The cushions were arranged slowly, and even the courtyard was lined with tables and chairs. Dong Zhuo, wearing a bright red robe, sat upright in the hall. Li Ru and Niu Fu, Dong Zhuo's sons-in-law, greeted the guests at the door. The officials all knew each other well.

Gifts and money were given one after another. Although it was not a festival, everyone was bright and cheerful, talking and laughing.

The Grand Master's Mansion was newly decorated, and servants were constantly shuttled among the crowds. Wine pots, tea, and various exquisite snacks were not inferior to the royal banquet in the palace. Perhaps the emperor's treat was also attended by civil and military officials.

So thoughtful. Seeing that it was getting late, the butler gave an order, and the red lanterns lit up one after another, illuminating the Taishi's mansion like daylight. The fiery red color added to the excitement of the banquet.

When Long Fei came, it was the time when there were the most people. Long Fei was holding a square brocade box. The box was bright yellow, covered with cloud patterns, and tied up with red ribbons, which made it particularly noble. Li Ru saw the rush from a distance.

He came forward and stretched out his hand to take it. Long Fei smiled slightly and said, "Master Li, I want to present this to the Grand Master with my own hands, so I won't bother you!"

Li Su smiled: "What a good thing? Can you let me see it first?"

Long Fei laughed and said: "No! This thing is extremely valuable. Even a city's price cannot describe its preciousness! Maybe with the permission of the Grand Master, you can take a look."

Long Fei entered the courtyard. Li Su and Niu Gao looked at each other and smiled coldly. When the sky darkened completely, the whole courtyard was covered in red. Dong Zhuo said a few words to Li Ru. Li Ru nodded slightly and said loudly

: "My lords, the Grand Master is hosting a banquet today to wish the Han Dynasty long-term peace and stability. Come, let's toast the Grand Master together!"

Everyone stood up and raised their wine glasses to toast Dong Zhuo, which also announced that the banquet was about to begin. A dozen pretty singers came to Dong Zhuo with their long sleeves swaying amidst the melodious sound of pianos and harps. Long Fei sat on Dong Zhuo's bed.

The right side is opposite Lu Bu. This seat is not for ordinary people to sit. Even Li Ru and Niu Fu were under Long Fei's hands, which shows Dong Zhuo's admiration for Long Fei.

Li Ru picked up the wine glass: "Father-in-law, General Long has a good gift for his father-in-law. It is quite mysterious and we are not allowed to see it! General Long, can you give it to me now?"

"Oh!" Dong Zhuo hurriedly put down his wine glass upon hearing this: "Long Fei! What is it? Take it out for everyone to see."

Long Fei smiled mysteriously: "Grand Master, this thing is rare in the world, and ordinary people will never see it!" He took out the box from under the desk, raised it high above his head, and said to Dong Zhuo: "I was not in Chang'an a few days ago.

Go get this thing and present it to the Grand Master today. As for whether you want it to be seen by everyone, let the Grand Master decide!"

"Hehehe..." Dong Zhuo chuckled: "What is so mysterious! Then let me take a look first!"

Long Fei held the box in both hands, came to Dong Zhuo, gently opened the lid of the box, and only took a glance. Dong Zhuo's expression changed instantly. First he was surprised, then happy, and finally turned into ecstasy. Long Fei hurriedly opened the lid of the box.

He covered it again and handed it to Dong Zhuo with both hands. Dong Zhuo did not let the servant behind him do it, but finished it with his own hands. Everyone could clearly see the satisfaction and high spirits on his face.

Who is Dong Zhuo? It can be said that he controls the entire world. Although he does not have the name of emperor, he has the status of emperor. There is indeed no treasure in the world that can impress Dong Zhuo. What is in the box? Everyone is speculating. Even Li Ru can't think of it.

Come out, what did Long Fei use to make Dong Zhuo so happy? Dong Zhuo held the box in his arms and nodded to Long Fei: "Okay! Long Fei is really my loyal minister! You should learn more like Long Fei and serve me.

The big man will do his best to share your Majesty's worries!"

Dong Zhuo didn't say anything about letting everyone see it, and no one dared to ask for it. Lu Bu had been showing off in front of Dong Zhuo these days, which won Dong Zhuo's favor. Unexpectedly, Long Fei stole his limelight as soon as he came back. He felt even more uncomfortable.

Those eyes kept rolling their eyes at Long Fei. Long Fei pretended not to see it and talked to Dong Zhuo. When they talked about their happiness, the two laughed at the same time.

After the dance, the geishas left the stage one after another. Dong Zhuo was in a high mood and asked everyone to ignore it and drink happily. It seemed that he was in a particularly good mood today. After drinking this amount, he slowly entered a good state. Everyone gradually became more talkative.

He got up and made some inappropriate remarks, but Dong Zhuo didn't care. The more he talked, the happier he became. Hongmeng, the minister, continued to drink and staggered to the center of the hall, and bowed his hands to Dong Zhuo. Just when everyone didn't know what he was going to do,

Hong Meng said: "Grand Master, now that the world is stable, the Han Dynasty is prosperous, and Your Majesty has reached the age of fifteen, when will Grand Master prepare to return power to Your Majesty?"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was surprised. Those officials who were loyal to the Han Dynasty looked at Dong Zhuo with longing faces. Dong Zhuo's cronies looked at each other coldly. The rest of them frowned, waiting for the development of the matter. The atmosphere at the scene changed.

The boy became nervous, and the sound of music and dancing seemed to have stopped. Dong Zhuo was talking happily to Long Fei, but when Hong Meng said this, he immediately sat upright.

Cai Yong hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Hong Meng's sleeves, dragging him to his seat. Hong Meng may have really drunk too much, but he was not afraid at all when facing Dong Zhuo's sharp eyes: "According to the ancestral teachings of my great Han Dynasty, the emperor's fifteenth

He can take charge of the government at the age of 10. Your Majesty just celebrated his birthday a few days ago. According to the ancestral teachings, the Grand Master should return the government to your Majesty! The reason why General Huo Guang abolished the throne was also because of Liu He's immorality. However, now His Majesty is smart, benevolent and filial.

Being decisive is a wise ruler, not to mention that the virtue of the Grand Master is not as good as Huo Guang, so he should return the power to His Majesty!

The whole place was quiet, no one spoke. Only Cai Yong tried hard to persuade Hong Meng to shut up. More people turned their attention to Dong Zhuo, wondering how Dong Zhuo would deal with Hong Meng.

"Hahaha..." Dong Zhuo burst into laughter: "Today's banquet is very enjoyable. I have prepared a wonderful program for you. Please enjoy it!"
