Chapter 225 The Strange Event at the Hongmen Banquet

Chapter 225 The Strange Event at the Hongmen Banquet
The soldiers on the left and right were busy laughing when they suddenly heard the sound of porcelain shattering. Not knowing what was going on, they all drew their weapons angrily and looked at her viciously.

Only the General Rong Zhan who was closest to the jug looked at the fragments of the table with a cold expression. Even though the others couldn't see clearly, he saw it for real.

It seemed that there was a powerful force that shattered the jug in an instant!
But on the right, Prince Xu, who had already been in the case, looked at the anger of all his subordinates present with a leisurely expression, without a trace of fear.

What made him even more surprised was that, according to rumors, King Xu, Emperor Wen's favorite, came to the city to negotiate peace, and he came with a small team like this?Before, the governor of the king of Jiangcheng came to ask for an audience, followed by the fewest battalion of soldiers. Is Prince Xu really not afraid or is he trying to stay calm?He couldn't see it at all.

And today, in order to frighten the King Wen who came from afar, he specially deployed the most elite troops under his banner to all the enemies that could be seen entering the city. Like a cow, he is more suitable for the battlefield than Wen Guo's men who are weak. If this battle really breaks out, Wen Guo will be like Feng Guo's pocket, and he will take it if he wants it!

At this moment, Xi Lan calmly glanced at the Feng Guo general who was facing him with his sword drawn, and asked with a cold smile: "The way the general's subordinates treat guests is really jaw-dropping."

Although Zhu Kuang didn't know for a moment how the jug was broken, it must have something to do with Prince Xu.

He stretched out his hand and gestured to the soldiers, and all of them put down their swords and sat down.

"These people are vulgar and reckless, don't worry about these people!" Zhu Kuang grinned, and at the same time, a maid came forward to change the flagon for him.

He said with a gloomy expression: "This Wenguo wine is as light as water. It's tasteless to drink. It's really boring. It's better to replace it with my Fengguo Jiukou Brew."

Xi Lan has long heard that people in Fengguo are fond of wine, and their nine mouthfuls of wine are full of strength, and most people pour it down in nine mouthfuls. Zhu Kuang wanted to pour her down as soon as he came, and wanted to be the first to drink in this wine case. Her intention to join the army is really obvious.

And today, she came to negotiate peace, and she couldn't let the other party lead her by the nose.

Immediately, she cupped her hands to express her position and said: "The general is very kind, and this king can understand it, but I came here after a long distance. I still hope that I can discuss the business clearly first, and then I can get drunk with the general."

Zhu Kuang smiled lightly, thinking that she was afraid, which was exactly what he wanted to achieve.

Nothing compares, what else to talk about?

Naturally, whatever conditions he raised, the other party would agree.

Zhu Kuang didn't say anything, but a general under him said disdainfully: "What a big tone, you can get drunk with General Rongzhan, and there are not many people in this world!"

In their eyes, this petite Prince Xu, let alone nine mouthfuls, would faint in one mouthful!

And their honorable generals, in the Fengguo, their drinking capacity is ranked first.

Xi Lan glanced at the general who spoke calmly, and was not moved. Instead, she said solemnly: "It is really an honor for this king to be one of these people?"

"Hehehehe!" There was a burst of ridicule, thinking that he was overthinking himself.

That being the case, she doesn't have to shirk.

Originally, she thought about using the official method to face this Hongmen banquet, but these people don't know how to flatter her, so she should use the Jianghu method!

"Since the general likes to talk about things after drinking, it's okay."

Zhu Kuang smiled proudly. "I just like how straightforward you are!"

So, the maid brought up several altars of nine mouthfuls of wine one after another, and poured a cup for Xi Lan.

Xi Lan raised her glass and drank with Zhu Kuang.

After these nine sips of wine were poured into her mouth, it was indeed extremely spicy. If she had changed her previous physique, she probably wouldn't be able to drink a few cups of this wine.

"How about my Fengguo's fine wine?" Zhu Kuang asked proactively.

She nodded and said lightly, "Very good!"

The other party smiled triumphantly, "It's good to try more! But Lord Xu, please pay attention, this wine is no better than Wen's wine..."

She suddenly raised her head to pick up the words, and reminded her deeply: "This king also wants to tell the general, this king is here to discuss national affairs, and I don't want to take advantage of the general at the wine table!"

The smile on Rong Zhan's face froze for a while, he thought about it, but he didn't know where this little white-faced prince got the courage to say that he could take advantage of him at the wine table?
"Prince Xu wants to use these words to provoke General Ben, but I'm afraid he is looking for the wrong person!"

"Really?" Xi Lan raised her eyebrows, propped her hands on her knees grandly, and put on a full posture of the prince.

Zhu Kuang did not show weakness, and immediately changed to a big bowl.

He wanted to let this brazen little boy of Wenguo get drunk on the spot, and see what else she dared to use to negotiate terms with him!

Seeing that Zhu Kuang was so easy to take the bait, Xi Lan was really conceited to the extreme, which was great, as she liked such arrogant opponents.

Soon, the two held the big bowl and drank it down in one gulp.

Zhu Kuang put down the wine bowl, and took a special look at Xi Lan's face, but there was no change at all, thinking, this kid seems to have a bit of a drinker, otherwise he wouldn't dare to drink with him rashly, he has a lot of patience.

"Pour wine!"

The maid stepped forward again and poured three bowls of wine for Xi Lan.

Zhuang Zhimou, who was behind him, took a look, and secretly scolded Zhu Kuang for being too deceitful, but on the one hand, he was afraid that his princess would collapse after drinking, and she would stay in this small town if she failed to negotiate, so she stepped forward cautiously and reminded him softly. : "Wangfei drinks like this, let this Zhu Kuang succeed!"

Xi Lan blocked the opponent back with her hand, without saying anything, took the first bowl of wine in front of her, offered to respect Zhu Kuang and said: "The general is so kind, how can I let this king down?"

Let's do it first!

Seeing how bold she was, Zhu Kuang had a calculation in his heart and drank a bowl too.

When Xi Lan picked up the second bowl, Zhu Kuang felt a little strange seeing that her face remained unchanged.

It stands to reason that after drinking two bowls of these nine brews, she would be drunk already. Even if she drinks too much, she won't be completely drunk, right?
He smiled and said: "Look at this, the prince has been here for a long time, and there are no beauties to serve him, why don't you hurry up and call the two most beautiful?"

As soon as the voice fell, the followers below him led the two flirtatiously dressed women to her.

When Xi Lan saw the two women, her expression finally changed slightly, and this change was precisely accepted by Zhu Kuang.

"What are you still doing in a daze, why don't you serve this general's distinguished guest who came from afar?"

The two women immediately sat next to her with smiles, rubbed and touched her body: "My lord, you are so handsome..."

Xi Lan is wearing a light armor, which has wrapped her exquisite figure. If you touch it through the clothes, you won't find anything, but if someone penetrates into the clothes and touches it, it will definitely reveal your secrets, so just now As soon as she saw these two women, she was worried, and now she really is.

She sat calmly at first, but when the two women wanted to reach into her clothes more and more, she grabbed the hand of one of them with one hand!
"My lord, it hurts, it hurts so much!" Everyone present looked at him with inquiring eyes.

She looked coldly and said: "With your beauty, this king can't take my eyes off of you!" After speaking, she shook the woman's hand, and the woman lost her balance and fell backwards.

Seeing this, Zhu Kuang's thick eyebrows tightened.

Xi Lan went on to say: "General, please forgive me, I have seen too many delicate, beautiful and shy women in Jinling, and I don't like such women who take the initiative and are easy to get!"

When the other party heard this, he even smiled heartily: "Prince Xu's desire for a woman is the same as this general!"

After finishing speaking, his face turned dark again in a blink of an eye, without looking at the two women, he said in a deep voice, "Go away!"

The two women disappeared from the banquet immediately, and Xi Lan passed the test safely, but at this moment, she saw Zhu Kuang calling his capable entourage, and mouthed: "Go and call that person!"

This Zhu Kuang is really unwilling to give up.

"Come on, Lord Xu, keep drinking."

Zhu Kuang then drank three more bowls with her.

Looking at Xi Lan now, he is still not drunk, and he is even more puzzled!

There are many deceptions in the Jianghu. It seems that the wine is drunk into the mouth, but in fact it flows to other places along a thin tube.

Just now he deliberately sent those two women close to him, just to see if there was something tricky hiding on her body, but before the two women were sent away, they didn't find any problems. What's going on?

Also, the flagon jug that burst suddenly just now is also really strange. Could it be that Li Huai, as rumored, was born extraordinary?

Twenty-seven years ago, in the year Li Huai was born, Wen Kingdom was almost destroyed. At that time, Zhu Kuang's father was about to conquer Wen Kingdom in one fell swoop. Feng, the army and horses of the Feng Kingdom had to retreat. That day happened to be the day of Li Huai's birth. After that, there was a rumor circulating in the Three Kingdoms that this prince of the Wen Kingdom would rule the world in the future!
Zhu Kuang has never believed in rumors. His father failed to capture Wen Kingdom in his prime. Now, he is more courageous and insightful than his father. He has been silent for more than 20 years, and his ambition has long since occupied the ancient city. After that, it became obvious.

Xi Lan said at this moment: "General, I've drank so much wine, can we talk about this ancient town?"

Zhu Kuang's deep and sharp eyes looked towards her. "How does the lord want to talk about this ancient thing?"

"For more than [-] years, the Wenfeng and Wenfeng countries have maintained that the well water does not violate the river water, and the business transactions between the two countries are also very ordinary. It is wise to continue to maintain peace and jointly benefit the people of the two countries. This small town occupies the past, logically, I'm afraid it can't be justified!"

Her voice is light and powerful, her articulate words are clear, and she already understands what she wants to express.

The other party secretly sighed that Li Huai had some eloquence, but it was just like a literati, and it would not work for him.

"The law of the jungle has always been prey to the strong in this world. The truth is for people who don't understand. People in high positions like you and me should understand that the truth between us is determined by the strong!"

This bandit's tone was no different from Zhu Kuang that Xi Lan knew.

To put it simply, the Wen Kingdom is a piece of fat, governed by the mean, and the Feng Kingdom is a hungry wolf. Apart from the vicious army, the domestic resources are scarce. They need the army to plunder the resources of other countries, and even have the ambition to directly annex them. .

"The general's words are not without reason, but the general should also understand a truth!" The coldness in her eyes gradually turned, she leaned forward slightly, and said in a deep voice: "There is a difference between not wanting to fight and not daring to fight." Big difference!"

As soon as the words fell, another strange thing happened at the banquet.

That is, the doors and windows were closed all around, but suddenly a strange wind blew, which extinguished several main lights around it!
