Chapter 1364 Banquet(2/2)
Xin Ping stared at Chief Geng Bao, and suddenly noticed that there seemed to be some beads of sweat on Chief Geng Bao's head. His heart skipped a beat, and he realized that he seemed to be a little reckless...
The atmosphere in the lobby suddenly became strange. Everyone seemed to be busy with their own things, but they also seemed to be paying attention to the movements of others.
Tian Feng took a long breath, and the trembling of his arms gradually stopped. He first arched his hands towards Yuan Shaogong, then put down Huang Jin, grabbed the cane, stood up, and put some smile on his face.
With a smile, he said to Chief Geng Bao: "Master Geng, please come closer. I have something to say..."
Geng Bao, the chief clerk, did not doubt that he was there, so he took two steps towards Tian Feng, raised his hands and said, "Do you have anything to ask Mr. Tian?"
Tian Feng held the cane tightly, and the knuckles of his fingers were a little white. When he saw the chief Geng Bao approaching, he suddenly raised his hand and struck the chief Geng Bao on the forehead with a stick, and immediately hit the chief Geng Bao.
Smashed to the ground, blood flowed everywhere!
"You bastard! How dare you pretend to be auspicious! Deceive the lord! Confuse the public with your lies! Confuse the public!" Tian Feng shouted while continuing to beat the chief register, Geng Bao, with his cane.
There was an uproar in the lobby. Everyone was shocked and couldn't react for a while.
The cane was overwhelmed in the fierce collision and finally broke with a click. Tian Feng became unstable and fell to Jusue. Jusue quickly stretched out his hand to help Tian Feng up. Tian Feng's lips moved slightly, and Jusue suddenly
Eyes widened...
"Stop! Stop it quickly!" Yuan Shao shouted loudly, "Yuan Hao, why are you acting like this!"
Tian Feng threw the yellow brocade in his hand to the ground, pointed at Geng Bao, the bookkeeper, and shouted angrily: "Such villains slander the country, make false judgments, violate the ethics of heaven and earth, and intend to rebel against the court! What is the decline of red virtue?"
?Ah?! The big man is a man of fire, how dare you say that the big man is "in decline"? Such a person is so different from the Yellow Turban thieves of the past! The three brothers of the Zhang family disrupted the country and caused trouble in all directions. I never thought that such a villain would survive here.
, actually trying to bewitch the lord! If the lord falls for this thief’s plan, wouldn’t he fall into the trap of a Yellow Turban thief! He deserves to die! He deserves to be killed! His nine tribes deserve to be punished!”
"This..." Yuan Shao couldn't help but twitch his lips.
Jushu took a step forward, raised his hands and said: "Ming Gong! The people of Jizhou have been deeply harmed by the Yellow Turban! We must not let it revive and poison the country! Master Geng's book contains evil intentions. In the name of auspiciousness, he does dirty things. He can't do it without killing him.
According to the laws of the Qing Dynasty, if you don't kill, you can't make the people angry, if you don't kill, you can't calm the people! If you don't kill him, Jizhou will be in chaos! Please give the order to kill him quickly!"
Geng Bao, the chief clerk, was beaten wildly by Tian Feng. His head was covered with blood and his mind was a little dazed. Suddenly, he heard Tian Feng and Ju Sue jumping out and fiercely calling for beating and killing, and even wanted to kill his whole family. He couldn't help but feel
Somewhat panicked, he quickly raised his head, looked at Yuan Shao, and stretched out his hand, "This matter...this matter...my lord...my lord, save me...it's my lord..."
The corner of Yuan Shao's eyes twitched, "Here comes someone! Drag this person who has deceived the public with his monstrous words down! Kill him!"
"Master! Master! You can't... um..."
The chief secretary, Geng Bao, was about to say something, but he was slapped on the cheek by the guard who rushed in. He was unable to speak a complete sentence and was dragged down like a dead dog.
In the lobby, the atmosphere became weird again.
At this point, the banquet could not continue. Yuan Shao was the first to say that he was too drunk and left. The rest of the people naturally lost interest in continuing to drink. They looked at each other in silence, and then talked to each other with their own thoughts.
After leaving, only a piece of yellow brocade was left in the lobby, stained with the blood of the chief bookkeeper Geng Bao...
…………………………
"Bastard!" Yuan Shao slapped the table with a heavy palm. Talking about people's will, public opinion, and saying that Jizhou will be in chaos, in fact, they all have the same meaning, which is to threaten Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao is not a fool, how could he do this?
If you don’t understand, how can you not be angry?
Yuan Shao specially chose to entertain everyone here in Lishan, at the Temple of Emperor Yu and the Palace of King Shun. The meaning of this was obvious. As a result, Tian Feng got angry on the spot and even beat up the chief bookkeeper Geng Bao in front of Yuan Shao.
Crazy beating!
This is not a slap on Chief Geng Bao, but a slap on Yuan Shao’s face!
Geng Bao is not from a wealthy family, nor is he a famous scholar, but by sitting in the position of chief registrar, he represents Yuan Shao! The chief registrar is in charge of correspondence and confidential discussions. Although his rank is not high, it does not mean that his confidants cannot be trusted.
, Tian Feng's behavior did not leave any face to Yuan Shao!
And this was after Yuan Shaocai just expressed his willingness to let the emperor come to Juancheng!
What is reciprocation?
What is courtesy reciprocity?
Yuan Shao felt that his face was getting hot, as if he had been slapped by Tian Feng more than ten times!
"Lord..." Guo Tu's voice sounded outside the door.
Yuan Shao stretched out his hands, rubbed his cheeks, took a few deep breaths, calmed down a little, and said in a deep voice: "Gongze, come in..."
Guo Tu came closer, and under the light of the setting sun, he dragged out a long and wide shadow, which seemed to cover up the remaining light in the house. When he came to Yuan Shao, he cupped his hands and whispered in a low voice: "The Tian family is a wealthy family in Jizhou.
…”
"Well..." Yuan Shao let out a long sigh, nodded and said, "I know the meaning of public principles..."
Guo Tu nodded and stopped talking.
Yuan Shao closed his eyes, and after a long time, he suddenly opened them, with a cold light shining in his eyes, "The evil dog bites the master, and his claws must be cut off! Is there any good plan for you, sir?"
Guo Tu nodded, took a step forward, and whispered in Yuan Shao's ear...
…………………………
Outside the south gate of Gaoyang City, Qu Yi's tall figure was riding on a horse, but the black cloak behind his back was blown by the strong wind in the wild. Ju Yi's three hundred personal guards were neatly dressed and lined up behind him.
, just waiting quietly.
Although this time it was Yuan Shao's intention to hold a celebration banquet for Qu Yi, the expressions on everyone's faces from Qu Yi on down were not as relaxed and showy as before, but seemed a little uneasy.
Qu Yi was originally from Pingyuan, and later fled to Xiping. However, Xiping was a guest place after all. Qu Yi still wanted to return to his hometown, so he returned to Jizhou when Han Fu served as the shepherd of Jizhou. However, because Han Fu took the
It was a strategy to suppress the right-wing local gentry in Jizhou, so the relationship with Han Fu was always not good. It was not until Yuan Shao died at the east gate that Qu Yi found a good opportunity to stand up and rise.
but now……
Qu Yi looked around slightly. Originally, the total number of Qu's soldiers was close to 1,500, but now there are only 300 left. The rest died in this battle with Gongsun Zan, especially in
In that fight with Baima Yicong, most of them were lost!
These soldiers are all Qu Yi's old supporters. They are soldiers who follow Qu Yi wholeheartedly. They are like brothers. Naturally, they are the personal guards that Qu Yi can feel most at ease with.
Yuan Shao suddenly invited Qu Yi to a banquet in Gaoyang, saying that it was to commend Qu Yi for his contribution in the battle of Gongsun Zan. However, after Qu Yi arrived in Gaoyang, he didn't know why and felt something was wrong.
"...Yan Nanchui, Zhao Bei Shang. The chrysanthemums have fallen, and the village is deserted. Under the Zhang platform, the warehouse is full of bones. There are magpies, who lost their nests and perished..." Qu Yi suddenly remembered this sentence again for some reason, and then changed his mind.
He looked towards the outside of Gaoyang City.
In the harsh winter, the wilderness is desolate, the people are sparsely populated, and the sun hangs feebly in the sky, making it look like it is just barely surviving.
"Hmm..." Qu Yi seemed to have thought of something, but if he really wanted to sum it up, it was like a complicated hemp thread, and he couldn't find the clue.
All kinds of thoughts went over and over in his mind, but he still couldn't come to any conclusion. In the end, Qu Yi just let out a long breath, irritably waved a riding whip in the air, and the horse's four hooves were covered with snow.
His ears perked up and he just let out a long neighing sound.
Chapter completed!
