The Moon Lotus on the River is a restaurant with several shipyards connected by iron chains across the Han River.
This place is the top place for eating, drinking and having fun in Jingzhou. The Huang family is a high-ranking family in Jingzhou, and Huang Chengyan is now Liu Jingsheng's burden.
The sky had just turned dark, and Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, who had changed into his true form, Liu Feng, Pang Tong and others were already happy to attend the appointment.
The eldest son Liu Qi, with his hands and eyes astonishingly, knew about Huang Chengyan's invitation from somewhere, and waited by the Han River in advance with a smile on his face.
Xiangyang is a big city in Jingzhou. Liu Biao doesn't like the humidity and heat in Jiangling. Among his supporters, Xiangyang has the most high-ranking families. After running Jingzhou for more than ten years, Xiangyang has become much more prosperous than when Emperor Ling was!
The night was dark, and lights were lit on both sides of the Han River. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were excited as they watched, knowing that this was the source of their elder brother's strength.
Especially the third brother, who has not stepped out of the role of Cao's thief and cavalry for a while, can't help thinking that if he leads the troops to plunder this place, it will be a big deal!
If it was said that the first time he entered Xiangyang City, everyone's reputation was not obvious, but this time it was completely different.
Among the high-ranking Xiangyang students and Confucian students in the restaurant, who would not shout a hero when they see the second brother or the third brother?
Big Er hadn't arrived yet, and everyone asked where he was going, with concern in their eyes.
Pang Tong looked at this scene and was speechless. He didn't expect that Xiaolian and his bachelor's degree from Taixue were not as good as the plan of a pig-killer in Zhuojun.
Although Zhang Fei's plan was ineffective, it fundamentally changed the lord's unfavorable situation.
Da'er didn't come for a while, so everyone drank and waited.
Pang Tong was lost in thought when Huang Chengyan introduced an old man to the scene, but he didn't even notice.
"Shi Yuan, Shi Yuan, Mr. Shui Jing is here!"
Pang Tong was lost in thought, and Huang Chengyan kept talking, which interrupted Feng Chu's thoughts.
Pang Tong looked through his nostrils and saw an old man opposite, still wearing straw sandals and with a warm smile on his face. It was Sima Hui who had talked with him all night in Yingchuan.
Feng Chu was overjoyed and hurriedly stepped forward to greet them, and even introduced Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to Mr. Shui Jing.
They were fighting in the daytime, and Sima Hui was also watching from the city wall. He felt that the third brother looked familiar, but he had no time to think about it at this time.
Everyone sat in a circle, waiting for Xuande and discussing world affairs. The atmosphere was very harmonious.
Above the Han River, the atmosphere was harmonious. In Cai Mao's mansion, looking at his best friend Zhang Yun and General Cai who looked tired and wanted to cry without tears, they were very uneasy.
Ma De, that Liu Bei who deceived children, defrauded money and food, has now become the heart of all people in Jingzhou!
Young Master Liu Cong still has nightmares every night. What's more important is that beside the Han River, the victims are starving and the money sent from the south is also stuffed into Big Er's backpack.
If you think about it carefully, you will find that it is unbearable!
"These three brothers have a big plan. They also want money and reputation. They should not be underestimated!" |
"We must let the three of us know who has the final say in Jingzhou. Hmm, it just so happens that Xu Huang comes to attack on the day Big'er enters the city? It's really strange!"
After all, Cai Hao was not the idiot recorded in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Looking at Zhang Yun, he pointed out the key to the problem.
Liu Biao's nephew also realized at this time that the whole thing was unusual. Since Liu Bei's arrival, Xiangyang City seemed to have gone off the normal track.
"Degui, it's true. What's even more worrying is that the eldest young master is also very close to this person!"
"When I heard that Liu Bei was coming, I rushed here from Jiangxia! Huh!"
"Do you know where Liu Bei is tonight?"
After hearing Zhang Yun's words, Cai Mao became more murderous. He glanced at his close friend and asked slowly.
"Hey, I heard that Mr. Huang hosted a banquet on the Han River. Degui, why is this Mr. Huang's elbow turned outward? He is an in-law of the Cai family!"
"Humph, the world is in chaos. What do these rotten scholars know? Speaking of which, the root cause still lies with Zhuge Liang!"
"This Wolong, are his eyes blurred? He can't see Liu Bei's hypocrisy!"
"You, hurry up and gather your troops. Let's go to the Han River to find trouble with Da'er. We are so anxious to put on the employment list and bring more soldiers. I don't believe it. On the river, brothers Liu, Guan, and Zhang dare to fight with me.
Wait for the fight!"
"It's best to drown a few of them, and Jingzhou will be clean from now on!"
"Here, Degui, are you not afraid of my lord's punishment?"
"General Zhang, yesterday my sister reported that my master has been vomiting blood for ten days and has gained very little water and rice. Brother-in-law, he is dying!"
"If we don't stand up, I'm afraid that the second young master and I won't have a foothold in the future!"
Cai Hao gritted his teeth, took a breath, and spoke slowly word by word.
Zhang Yun mobilized his troops very quickly. Half a moment later, hundreds of sailors, led by Wenpin, were heading straight towards the bank of the Han River.
Not only the land soldiers were mobilized, but more than ten warships on the Han River had also left the water village and headed towards the restaurant.
Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others did not realize the danger. They just had no choice but to wait for their elder brother to arrive.
The owner of the Moon Lotus on the River is said to be from a prominent family in Jingzhou, and is closely related to Mrs. Cai.
Seeing Cai Mao, the popular fried chicken in Jingzhou, attracting the soldiers with murderous intent, the shopkeeper wanted to come forward to say hello, but was pushed away by Wen Pin in front of Cai Mao.
"Don't talk too much. Today's business is important. I don't have time to listen to you making noises here!"
"Where are the Liu Bei brothers?"
"General Cai, they are in the Tianzihao private room. Huang Gong and Mr. Shui Jing are also there, accompanied by several oirans. What's going on? They are all our own people!"
"Our own people? I and you and other rotten scholars and people who lead wolves into the house are not our own people!"
Cai Mao sneered and strode forward. The followers around him also waved torches to the navy warships on the Han River to send out signals!
At this time, in the private room No. 1 of Tianzi, Da'er had not yet arrived, but Zhang Fei and Liu Feng were already showing off their northern style in front of Jingzhou's celebrities.
Several beauties wearing heavy makeup were held in the arms of the third brother and the son of a man who pretended to be mature, talking and teasing.
The second brother still closed his eyes and said nothing in his signature style, stroking his beard with one hand and pouring wine with one hand.
Pang Tong, together with Mr. Shui Jing and others, were discussing the events of that year. When they were very interested, they suddenly saw the lights on more than a dozen warships on the Han River.
"Something's wrong. Where did we move our troops late at night? What happened?"
"I have also lived in Xiangyang for more than ten years, and I have never heard of a warship coming to the river here!"
"It's Degui's ship!"
Liu Qi recognized the battleship at a glance. Sima Hui looked suspicious and murmured to himself.
From the beginning to the end today, Jian Yong, who was smiling without saying a word, and Tongfengchu Pang Tong, naturally understood what was going on when they heard that this was Cai Mao's song.
The two looked at each other and already heard the noise of the boat in front and the exclamations of the dancers.
"Huang Gong, Sima Gong, I and General Cai have something to say!"
"This is a matter for warriors. It's best for you two to leave here for the time being!"
"What's wrong? You and De Gui are not on good terms? It doesn't matter, we are all family members, just talk it over!"
