Three Kingdoms: Ancestors of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 250
Hanzhong, Liangshan.

In the evening, the sun withdrew its dazzling and scorching light, turning into a brilliant yellow disc, with the clouds supporting it below, glowing red.The cool breeze is coming, taking away the heat. At this time, Liangshan in the evening is particularly cool.

On the slopes of Liangshan, nearly a hundred generals, generals and military officers of the Han Dynasty were on the mountain road, bowing their hands and saluting each other, congratulating each other on their achievements.

Among the crowd, Wei Yan was in high spirits. Today, he was wearing a strong suit and a crown, which made him look extraordinarily high-spirited.

"General Zuo went deep into Huangzhong and defeated the Wei army, and his power shocked Liangzhou. Ai also heard a lot about the might of General Zuo in Longyou!" Deng Ai said, clasping his hands in congratulation.

Wei Yan and Deng Ai are both from Yiyang, Jingzhou, and they are from the same village, so they often have contacts in Longyou, and their relationship is not bad.

Wei Yan laughed, pretending to be modest, cupped his hands and replied: "Shizai has a great reputation, and Shizai has made great achievements in Longyou."

Deng Ai smiled, raised his hand forward, and said, "The Son of Heaven is hosting a banquet, General Zuo please go first."

Wei Yan was also polite, bowed his hands in return, and walked proudly in front of Deng Ai, Pan Jun and others.

Not far away, Yang Yi, who was talking with Lu Yi, saw Wei Yan's attitude, snorted coldly, stroked his beard and sneered.

When Wei Yan entered the room and saw Zhao Yun who was already seated, he took a few steps forward and asked respectfully, "Yan has met General Wei."

Zhao Yun heard the reputation, looked up at Wei Yan, and said with a smile: "So it's Wen Chang, I haven't seen him for a long time. Wen Chang can be said to be getting more and more energetic!"

Wei Yan no longer looked proud just now, and replied: "General Wei is still handsome, and Yan Xin admires him."

Zhao Yun coughed lightly, waved his hands and said, "When you get old, your spirits are not as good as each year. How can you talk about the same demeanor? In the future, the big man will still need to rely on you juniors to work hard."

"The general has the courage of Lian Po and the hero of Ma Yuan, so how old is he?" Wei Yan said.

"It's also powerless."

After finishing speaking, Zhao Yun coughed a few more times, and continued: "Yun is impolite, please don't blame the chief text."

When Wei Yan was about to speak again, suddenly, the attendant shouted: "Please take your seat, gentlemen."

Hearing this, Wei Yan cupped his hands and said in a low voice, "I hope the old general will take care of himself."

Zhao Yun nodded and signaled Wei Yan to take a seat.

Wei Yan was seated below Wu Yi and above Wu's class.

Not long after everyone was seated, Zhuge Liang and Huang Quan walked into the banquet talking and laughing all the way.

During the banquet, everyone stood up to welcome them, and said, "I have seen the prime minister and the chariot general."

Zhuge Liang and Huang Quan returned their salutes to the crowd, then went to both sides of the high seat to salute each other and sit down.

"Your Majesty is here," the attendant shouted.

During the banquet, a group of civil and military ministers, seeing the emperor stepping in quickly, got up in unison, and they all stood up and worshiped. They congratulated and said: "I pay my respects to the country, and I wish your majesty ten thousand years."

Liu Chan sat on his height, and after everyone bowed down, he signaled to everyone to sit down without courtesy.

Looking around, Liu Chan sighed and said: "I have gathered less and more with you, and now I take the opportunity to gather you in Hanzhong when the Wei army is retreating. First, celebrate the defeat of Long last year and the defeat of Wei this year; two , I am about to return to the capital, and Lao Zhuqing is stationed hard in the northern border. Therefore, you must enjoy yourself today."

"No!" Everyone responded.

Liu Chan looked at the crowd and said with a smile: "Cao Wei raised 400,000 troops to attack me. Thanks to your help, I was able to retreat from the enemy in two months. I am very grateful. Don't forget your contribution. Therefore, before this banquet, we must Recognition of meritorious service and rewards to comfort the meritorious officials."

After finishing speaking, Liu Chan turned his eyes to Dong Yun who was beside him, and said, "Dong Shizhong can read out the reward."

Subconsciously looking at Dong Yun, the lower-level civil and military officers on both sides couldn't help but increase their breathing.

Dong Yun respectfully took out the imperial edict, read it aloud, and rewarded him for his meritorious service in this battle.

Soon after Dong Yun finished reading, all the officials at the banquet cheered and thanked, and said: "My minister Huang Quan/Wei Yan, thank you Your Majesty."

Liu Chan raised his bottle, looked around at the crowd, and said, "I respect you all for this bottle."

Wen Wu returned the gift with wine, and said: "I dare not wait."

Afterwards, everyone in the banquet staggered with cups and cups, and there was constant laughter.

When everyone was drunk, Liu Chan held the wine bottle in his hand, turned to the left with a smile on his face, and said: "This battle, the Prime Minister has made an orderly plan and retreated the enemies of Jingzhou. Take a bottle to the prime minister."

Zhuge Liang got up immediately, raised his bottle to return the salute, and said: "This is the duty of the minister, Liang dare not take credit for it."

That's what he said, but Zhuge Liang still picked up the wine bottle, bowed to Liu Chan, and drank it with a mouthful.

At this time, the somewhat excited Ju Fu pulled Li Qian out of the line together, cupped his hands to the emperor on the steps and said, "Your Majesty, for today's banquet, Fu and Bowente will present the Bayu Dance for His Majesty's entertainment."

"Can!"

"I ask Habayashi Rider to help him!" Ju Fu raised his voice.

"Good." Liu Chan replied.

Yuren Habayashi and his friends left the stage one after another, helping Jufu and Li Qian to make peace.

Li Qian beat the bronze drum and sang "Crossbow and Yuxin Fu Song" and said: "The officials select talents, and the swords and crossbows are wrong. They should dance to the dance festival and bow down like gods. Appreciate my martial arts, and respect my honest benevolence. From east to west , all guests..."

Jufu and the others are holding crossbows, their steps are majestic and powerful, and the formation is neat and orderly, either in the posture of fighting and marching, or as if they are fighting and fighting.

Li Qian's drumming became more and more intense, that unique desolate and passionate sound, accompanied by the heroic and majestic dance steps of Jian Ren.The blood of the people who watched could not help but burst out, and their hearts were full of pride.

Liu Chan couldn't help but feel excited and nodded again and again.

After the dance, Gou Fu and others shouted loudly: "I wish Your Majesty ten thousand years. I hope that the Han Dynasty will be rejuvenated and the Central Plains will be restored." The voice was sonorous and powerful, and the sound shook the whole field.

Liu Chan was overjoyed when he heard the words, stood up and waved his sleeves, and said boldly: "When King Wu defeated Zhou, the men of dragon and ben, singing and dancing, destroyed Yin and Shang; while Gao Zu was fighting for the Central Plains, the Ba people were brave and fearless, and fought to the death. Today I am like Gao Zu , King Wu, got the warriors to conquer the world. Qing and others performed dances, and I was really pleased with them, so I bestowed them with Shu robes."

Ju Fu, Li Qian and the others knelt down to worship and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

As soon as this remark came out, Liu Yin at the end was displeased, and he came out and cupped his hands, saying: "Your Majesty, the Ba people are brave and dare to fight, how dare we wait for the Shu people to fight! Now Yin wants to compete with him and others to correct me The name of the Shu people."

Jiang Wei followed suit and said loudly, "Your Majesty, we will not fall behind even the people of Qin. I hope Your Majesty promises."

"I, the Jing people, are not afraid of war?" Fu Xun agreed.

Seeing this, Liu Chan laughed loudly and said, "How can there be any distinction between Shu, Jing, Qin, and Cong people! They are all my people."

Liu Chan raised his hand, motioned to his attendants, and said, "Come here, set up a pile of arrows a hundred paces away, and whoever can hit a red heart in the pile of arrows will be given a Shu robe."
