Mi Han

Chapter 249 No Good Banquet, Fei Yi Stands Up
When Han Shizhong Deng Zhi led the mission to the border of Yong'an, Wu Jun noticed it.

Before Deng Zhi's mission arrived, Sun Quan ordered Zhu Ran, who was stationed in Yong'an, not to be negligent after discovering the Deng Zhi mission.

So when Deng Zhi's mission arrived in Yong'an, Zhu Ran immediately led the army to welcome Deng Zhi and his party into the city.

Zhu Ran originally wanted to entertain Deng Zhi and the others for a few days in Yong'an City.

But Deng Zhi felt that state affairs were important, so he only rested in Yong'an City for one day, and bid farewell to Zhu Ran the next day.

Because of the existence of the Yangtze River, Deng Zhi's mission traveled downstream from Yong'an to Jianye, but it only took a few days.

As early as the day Deng Zhi's mission arrived in Yong'an, Zhu Ran ordered people to report the incident to Sun Quan.

On the day before Deng Zhi's mission arrived in Jianye, Sun Quan had already made all the preparations for the reception.

Sun Quan led all the civil and military officials in Jianye, and waited for the arrival of Deng Zhi's mission at the port ten miles outside Jianye City.

The naval scouts on the Yangtze River kept going back and forth, reporting to Sun Quan all the movements of Deng Zhi's mission.

Sun Quan was sitting on the chariot, when the naval scouts reported that the boat carrying Deng Zhi's mission was about to arrive at the port, Sun Quan, who closed his eyes and meditated, suddenly opened his eyes.

He looked at the port ahead with a pair of mighty eyes.

Under his gaze, a huge building boat began to appear on the wide river.

The missions of the Han army were all on the huge building ship.

Although Deng Zhi's mission had only hundreds of people when it set out from Chengdu, when they arrived in Jingzhou, General Guan Yu sent more than 1000 Han troops to join Deng Zhi's mission as guards.

In the chariot, Sun Quan looked at the large ships that had already started to dock in the port. He looked at the big Chinese flag fluttering on the huge large ships, and his eyes narrowed.

When Liu Bei was the King of Hanzhong before, although his army also had a banner with the word "Han" in it, most of the banners in Liu Bei's army at that time still had the word "King of Hanzhong" as the main character.

But now all the banners in Liu Bei's army have been replaced with "Han" characters.

This quietly changing scene made Sun Quan feel uncomfortable.

When the news of Cao Pi usurping Han and proclaiming himself emperor reached Jianyezhong, Sun Quan was actually very happy.

Because Cao Pi's move is tantamount to completely removing a mountain that was pressing on his head.

As he got older, although the territory did not expand much, Sun Quan's ambitions continued to grow.

In the past, the Han family still existed in righteousness, no matter how ambitious Sun Quan was, he always had a layer of fear.

However, Cao Pi's act of usurping Han and proclaiming himself emperor made Sun Quan's fear disappear.

The big man has already died in the hands of thieves, so Sun Quan, who was originally a Han minister, has too many things to look forward to in the future.

But now Liu Bei has re-established the crimson banner of the great Han in the world, which dealt a blow to Sun Quan's previous ambition.

Seeing Deng Zhi and other envoys coming down from the building boat one after another, Sun Quan showed a "smile" on his face, and he immediately got off the chariot and walked quickly towards Deng Zhi and the others.

As Sun Quan kept approaching Deng Zhi, he knew that his actions today meant that Jiang Dong had officially surrendered to the great Han established by Liu Bei.

It's just that the situation is like this, so what can he do?
Anyway, he was originally a Hanchen, but now that his strength is not good, it doesn't matter to be a Hanchen for a while.

Quickly, Sun Quan came to Deng Zhi's body very quickly.

Before and after arriving at Deng Zhi's body, Sun Quan took the lead in bowing slightly to Deng Zhi: "The minister is paying homage to the envoy of the Son of Heaven."

Sun Quan did not come to Deng Zhi alone, there were many Jiangdong civil and military ministers behind him.

Although many of those civil and military ministers had reluctance on their faces, Sun Quan had already bowed to Deng Zhi. As Sun Quan's ministers, they had no choice but to bow to Deng Zhi in the end.

Just as Deng Zhi got off the boat, he saw Sun Quan leading Jiangdong's civil and military ministers to salute him.

Because he is currently the envoy representing the emperor of the Han Dynasty, he accepted the visit of Sun Quan and Jiangdong ministers frankly.

After saluting, Sun Quan hastily attracted a chariot, intending to connect Deng Zhi to Jianye City.

But Sun Quan stopped him, and thousands of Han troops entered the city with Deng Zhi.

Faced with Sun Quan's pretext to stop him, Deng Zhi did not object.

Jianye is the governing place of Jiangdong, and Wu Jun has at least tens of thousands.

If Sun Quan wanted to harm him, he could do it with just one thought.

So Deng Zhi ordered the thousands of Han troops who followed him to stay in the camp prepared by Sun Quan outside the city.

Deng Zhi only led dozens of people from the mission into Jianye City.

When Deng Zhi came to Sun Quan's mansion, Sun Quan immediately ordered someone to set up an incense case, ready for Deng Zhi to read Liu Bei's reward edict.

Originally, according to common sense, after the mission arrived in Jianye City, they should have a good rest for a day and then reward them tomorrow.

But there was a reason why Sun Quan was so impatient.

Deng Zhi, as the envoy of the emperor, as long as he does not announce Liu Bei's reward to Sun Quan for a day, then as the envoy of the emperor of Han, he will always be a head higher than Sun Quan.

This made Sun Quan dissatisfied.

Once upon a time, Deng Zhi had to salute him, but now it's the other way around.

Only after Deng Zhi read out Liu Bei's reward edict, Sun Quan didn't have to pay too much respect to Deng Zhi.

Of course Deng Zhi understood what Sun Quan was thinking, but he didn't point it out.

Before Sun Quan set up the incense case, Deng Zhi successfully read Liu Bei's award to Sun Quan.

When Sun Quan learned that he was worshiped by Liu Bei as the Taiwei who was the head of the three lords, and was granted the title of Marquis of Jiujiang, he, who had a sensitive political sense, immediately understood Liu Bei's intentions.

It's just that although he understood Liu Bei's intentions, Sun Quan didn't show anything on his face.

At least Liu Bei's reward for him is reasonable on the surface, and there is no problem at all.

After Sun Quan calmly accepted the letter of reward from Deng Zhi, Deng Zhi and Sun Quan breathed a sigh of relief.

Deng Zhi felt relieved because he had completed his mission, and Sun Quan was relieved because he no longer had to salute Deng Zhi.

The two have their own thoughts, but at least on the surface, the two still show a happy state.

After receiving the edict of reward, Sun Quan took advantage of the opportunity to invite Deng Zhi to participate in the banquet tonight.

Faced with Sun Quan's invitation, Deng Zhi naturally had no reason to refuse.

Seeing that it was still early in the morning, Sun Quan ordered Deng Zhi and others to be taken to their residence to rest.

After Deng Zhi and the others left, the smile on Sun Quan's face in the lobby faded instantly.

The imperial edict, which was originally held in both hands, is now held frivolously with one hand.

Sun Quan's actions reflect his true psychology at the moment.

Sun Quan looked at the back of Deng Zhi and others leaving, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Tonight's banquet is the beginning of the good show.

The mission headed by Deng Zhi quickly went to their respective dormitories under the leadership of the servants.

But not long after Deng Zhi entered the dormitory, a scribe who seemed to be in his 20s came to Deng Zhi's dormitory and found him.

This scribe is the deputy envoy of the Dahan Mission, Fei Yi, who was appointed by Liu Bei as Zhaoxin Zhonglang not long ago.

He is also one of the four phases of Ji Han who are famous in later generations.

When Fei Yi came to Deng Zhi's bedroom, he bowed to Deng Zhi:

"Servant, tonight's banquet may not be a good one."

Although Sun Quan has been worshiped by Liu Bei as the Great Han Taiwei, everyone in Chengdu knows that this is Liu Bei's way to appease Sun Quan.

In essence, Sun Quan is still a prince who has the heart of disobedience to rule a place.

So Fei Yi called Sun Quan by his first name in private, and was very suspicious of his intention to hold a banquet tonight.

Facing Fei Yi's speculation, Deng Zhi showed admiration for Fei Yi on his face.

He was admiring Fei Yi for his keen insight at such a young age.

Just now that Sun Quan asked him to read the imperial edict so eagerly, it shows that he is dissatisfied with Liu Bei's proclaiming himself emperor.

He has been an official for many years, and he has seen many more things in the world than Fei Yi.

How could he not know what Fei Yi could see?
It's just that Deng Zhi, as an envoy, has a reliance in his hands, so he doesn't have too much worry about tonight's "Hongmen Banquet".

Deng Zhi ordered his attendants to bring a wooden box for Fei Yi to look at. When he saw the familiar wooden box, Fei Yi's eyes froze.

When Mi Yang sent the battle report to Chengdu, he also sent the wooden box containing Cao Ren's head.

When Liu Bei summoned his ministers in the hall that day, the wooden box containing Cao Ren's head was placed in front of him.

So after the discussion was over, because of Cao Ren's fame, the style of the wooden box containing his head had already spread in Chengdu.

Fei Yi, one of the Three Heroes of Shu County, although he didn't witness everything in the hall that day, he had heard about the style of the wooden box.

Fei Yi looked at the wooden box that Deng Zhi took out, and he felt extremely familiar.

After seeing the wooden box, Fei Yi bowed to Deng Zhi, he already understood Deng Zhi's intention.

This is their method to counter Sun Quan tonight.

Seeing Fei Yi's quick response, Deng Zhi felt that Fei Yi was a talent to be made.

When he set off from Chengdu, the emperor specially summoned him and handed him the bag containing Cao Ren's head.

The emperor told him that if Sun Quan was in business as usual, then there was no need to take this thing out.

If Sun Quan made some small moves, then he would take this thing out to frighten all the officials in Jiangdong.

Because of having this object in his hand, Deng Zhi didn't have much worry about the banquet held by Sun Quan.

If the heads of famous people in the world were listed for sale, the selling price of Cao Ren's head and Sun Quan's head should be about the same.

Maybe even higher?

Time always flies by quickly, and soon after, the night has filled the sky.

When the Taiwei Mansion was shrouded in darkness, Deng Zhi, Fei Yi and other ten envoys who were qualified to attend the banquet began to slowly enter the banquet under the guidance of the servants.

And when Deng Zhi, Fei Yi and others took their seats, the lobby where the banquet was held was already full of people.

Those people are all Jiangdong ministers who are in Jianye City today. Except for Zhang Zhaowei, almost everyone has arrived.

Compared with those military generals, those civil servants among Jiangdong's ministers looked at Deng Zhi, Fei Yi and others with a bit of unkindness.

They know their mission tonight.

Of course, Deng Zhi and Fei Yi also noticed the gazes of those Jiangdong officials, but they didn't care.

After Deng Zhi, Fei Yi and others took their seats, Sun Quan, the great Han Taiwei, came to the main seat of the banquet and sat down under the escort of his entourage.

After Sun Quan arrived, it represented the official start of a grand banquet.

With the beginning of Wudi dance music in the banquet, the atmosphere of the banquet is slowly developing towards a climax.

Listening to the beautiful music, Sun Quan, who was sitting on the main seat, was not paying attention to those fair-skinned and beautiful dancers.

His eyes are constantly watching Deng Zhi.

Under the watchful eyes of Sun Quan, many Jiangdong ministers began to toast to Deng Zhi when the dance and music kept on during the banquet.

At the banquet today, Sun Quan prepared all the first-class wines in Wu Dizhong, and most of the good wines were spirits.

Therefore, under the continuous toasting of many Jiangdong ministers, Deng Zhi, who was too strong to drink, soon gradually became drunk.

When the blush climbed up Deng Zhi's cheeks, Sun Quan saw that Deng Zhi seemed to be drunk, so he clapped his hands to stop the singing and dancing in the banquet.

After the singing and dancing stopped, the banquet fell into silence for an instant.

Then Sun Quan, the Taiwei of the Han Dynasty, took the lead in attacking Deng Zhi.

Sun Quan is funny, he deliberately lowered his voice, and teased Deng Zhi in a joking voice, hoping that Deng Zhi could answer his teasing words.

Most of Sun Quan's teasing words have a strange angle, and it is difficult to answer.

Although Deng Zhi is also a person with eloquence, but at present he is already drunk.

In addition, Sun Quan deliberately lowered his voice so that Deng Zhi could not hear his words clearly, so Deng Zhi didn't know how to respond for a while because of his dull thoughts.

Seeing that Deng Zhi was too drunk to reply, Sun Quan had a smile on his face, and he hurriedly ordered someone to draw Deng Zhi's performance at this moment.

The messenger of the great man is nothing more than that.

But just when Sun Quan thought he had succeeded in his treachery, a person whom he ignored suddenly stood up and began to answer Sun Quan's teasing words.

This person is the deputy envoy Fei Yi.

When Deng Zhi was drunk and unable to cope, it was reasonable for Fei Yi to come out as the deputy envoy to answer Deng Zhi's place.

Although Fei Yi is still young, he is very quick-witted.

After he stood up, he answered Sun Quan's teasing words one by one with smooth and clear words.

He also secretly mocked Sun Quan in his words, which made Sun Quan's complexion extremely ugly.

But Sun Quan was wrong about this matter, so as long as Fei Yi can answer his words, Sun Quan will not be able to get angry even if he is angry.

Seeing that his master Sun Quan was deflated, Zhang Wen, Yang Chi, Yan Jian and other ministers who were famous for their talents and learning all stood up to make things difficult for Fei Yi for Sun Quan.

It's just that these ministers of literature are not as disregarding etiquette as Sun Quan. The way they make things difficult for Fei Yi is to test and teach Fei Yi the content of Confucian classics, which is a matter of the world.

All Jiangdong talents are talents with extensive learning, they are talented and decisive, and they have discussed difficulties with Fei Yi one after another, and they are endlessly eloquent.

But facing this situation, Fei Yi was not nervous.

In terms of talent and education, Fei Yi is not inferior to any of the ministers present, and he also has a gifted ability, that is, a photographic memory.

Fei Yi defended himself with his convictions.

Although because of the large number of people on the other side, Fei Yi couldn't immediately answer the other party's questions.

But whenever he finished answering the questions from a Jiangdong minister, he only needed to think a little about what the other party asked just now, and after a while he would be able to answer all the scriptures without making any mistakes.

So the current scene in the banquet is that there are more than a dozen Jiangdong ministers who are criticizing Fei Yi on the opposite side of Fei Yi.

On the other hand, even though he was the only one on Fei Yi's side, he always stood proudly on the spot, and no one could distinguish him.

Sun Quan was stunned by this scene: Where did this young man named Fei Yi come from?
And this scene also made Jiangdong painter dumbfounded: how does this make him paint?
Can Fei Yi be defeated in a one-man battle with Jiangdong's sages?
　Feeling a little dizzy.

　　Continue to code words, Chapter 2 should be out before twelve o'clock as much as possible.
