Chapter 95
In addition to the two wives of Guan Yu and Liu Bei, Sun Ce also received the invitation.
Sun Ce did not expect Liu Xie to be so close to Guan Yu, so he hesitated and called Zhang Hong.
Since Zhang Hong single-handedly brought Liu Xie back to Wu County, his already high status in Wu County has once again risen, even faintly surpassing Zhang Zhao, Cheng Pu and others.
Although the person Sun Ce trusted the most was Zhou Yu, once there were doubts and problems that required a certain amount of experience to be solved, Sun Ce was still willing to ask Zhang Hong for advice.
"Sir, Your Majesty hosted a banquet for the two wives of Guan Yu and Liu Bei. The name was to see them off, but in reality it was to win over them. However, I have failed to win over Guan Yu before. Is it appropriate to go again now?"
Guan Yu was an arrogant person, and he was indeed capable. Sun Ce recognized this, but how could he not be an arrogant person?
When two arrogant people meet, except for the happy scene, it is often disastrous, so Sun Ce doesn't know whether he should go to such an occasion.
"Whether Bo Fu is going or not, you still have to ask yourself whether you can endure the loneliness and whether you can trust your majesty."
What Sun Ce admires about Zhang Hong is that he will never be as aggressive as Zhang Zhao. Think of him as a junior, he will always let himself make decisions, and he just helps himself to think more clearly.
"I understand, Mr. Xie."
In just two words, Zhang Hong was sent out of his mansion by Sun Ce.
After walking out of Sun Ce's mansion, Zhang Hong sighed and showed a tangled look. Obviously, as the most popular person in Jiangdong recently, he was also quite hesitant in his heart.
As for what he was worried about, no one knew except himself.
After noon, Liu Xie was still lingering in the palace. The maid outside the door reported: "Your Majesty, the Taiwei said that he has military affairs and will not come to the banquet. Your Majesty will just send off the general in his stead."
After Liu Xie sent the maid away after hearing this, a curve appeared at the corner of his mouth. For some things, there are still steps that should be taken. Each step may not seem very eye-catching, but when combined together, in the end, it will lead to a result.
The impact is immeasurable.
Starting from the afternoon of this day, the palace, which was originally quite quiet, gradually became a lot more lively.
Although Liu Xie just brought the queen and the Qiao sisters to a banquet for Guan Yu and her two sisters-in-law, which totaled only seven people, the emperor's banquet was very particular in terms of specifications. Cao Cao did not do so when he was in Xuchang before.
He was given such an opportunity, but now, he has to get his face back, right?
The good thing about asking Sun Ce is that Sun Ce thought that this banquet was just a waste of Liu Xie's time to do things for him. Almost all the best cooks and cuisines in Jiangdong were used for this banquet. After all, people like Guan Yu
Strong generals are rare.
In addition, Sun Ce also contributed a special dancing beauty to Liu Xie for Liu Xie and Guan Yu to enjoy during the banquet, which can be said to be considerable support.
Liu Xie, the shopkeeper, did not let go until the maid came over to tell him that the time was almost up. Guan Yu and Liu Bei's two wives were already seated and waiting. Then he called Fu Shou and walked from his bedroom to the banquet hall.
When Liu Xie arrived, not only Guan Yu and Liu Bei's two wives had arrived, but the Qiao sisters had also arrived. Qiao Feng was talking with the two ladies, while Qiao Shuang was sitting aside bored. This was obviously arranged by her sister.
Yes, she is not the protagonist of today's banquet, she is just a shield for Qiao Feng.
Except for Qiao Shuang and Qiao Feng, the people at the banquet were not very familiar with each other, and they were all related to each other. In addition, with Liu Xie sitting on the throne, everyone could still be more relaxed.
of.
Guan Yu was really depressed in his small mansion these days. He finally had such a big scene, and he was quite satisfied. As soon as he came up, he was encouraged by Liu Xie to exchange cups with Liu Xie.
A few glasses.
At the same time, Mrs. Mi and Mrs. Gan also started to drink the drinks on the table under Qiao Feng's persuasion.
Originally, this was rare in this era, but Liu Xie is the emperor, and he is treating him today. According to Liu Xie's words, he just wants Guan Yu and the two ladies to relax at his place. After all, during this period
Whether they went from Xuchang to Wujun as a group, or Guan Yu went from Xuchang to Wujun alone, they experienced too many dangers in the process.
So, the two ladies, who had hardly been exposed to alcohol, finally pierced the layer of window paper and let go.
In fact, Liu Xie has to thank this dynasty. Since the Han Dynasty, women's status and freedom can be said to have grown by leaps and bounds.
Drinks, something that women rarely touched in the past, are actually common in this era. However, most women do not touch drinks because they may be overwhelmed by alcohol or may lose their temper after drinking.
.
Wine is definitely a magical thing. Even in later generations two thousand years later, many things still have to be discussed at the wine table, which shows the importance and role of wine in it.
In later generations, Liu Xie was the master who could still hold a pound or two of liquor with more than 60 degrees of alcohol. Now, he has serious doubts about the drinks of this era, because the concentration cannot be increased, so it is almost impossible to drink alcohol.
A bowl of wine is really nothing to Liu Xie.
As they drank, the relationship between the characters here became a little more liberal. Guan Yu, who originally tried not to interact with her because she was his sister-in-law, used his own drinking energy to start toasting the two wives of Liu Bei.
Already.
During this process, Liu Xie quietly withdrew, leaving Fu Shou and Qiao Feng to accompany him.
Fu Shou sincerely wanted to keep Liu Bei's two wives company, but Qiao Feng had a task that Liu Xie gave him before the banquet started, which was to incite a certain atmosphere. As for what this atmosphere is, in this era
It's something that can't be said.
At this time, Liu Xie slowly walked up to Qiao Shuang, who was struggling with a table of delicious food. Qiao Shuang saw Liu Xie approaching and quickly stood up to salute, but her face, which was bulging with delicious food, showed
There was an obvious hint of anger.
