Grassroots Overlord of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 126 Gongsun Zan's Banquet to Taishi

Gongsun Zan heard the general guarding the gate and reported to him: Qingzhou Taishici came to visit him! Gongsun Zant's face suddenly became bright, and he was overjoyed and ordered the servants of the mansion to prepare for the ceremony of welcoming the distinguished guests.

When Tai Shici came to the Muhou Mansion, Gongsun Zang had already stood at the door to greet him with a smile. Tai Shi Cicai wanted to kneel down and worship, so he was stopped by Gongsun Zun stretched out his hand. Then, under the gaze of the civilian generals, the two walked shoulder to shoulder on the red carpet and went straight to the hall in the third courtyard.

Several people under Gongsun Zan's command showed indignation when they saw Gongsun Zan's such a grand courtesy to Tai Shici. After looking at each other with dissatisfaction, they stared at Tai Shici's back with angry eyes.

When Tai Shici saw Gongsun Zan with a happy face, he couldn't help but turn to the situation when the alliance army attacked Chang'an City. The overwhelming momentum and the picture of swords and shadows made Tai Shici's blood boil. This kind of excitement was definitely no less than the excitement brought by the fierce female bed battle.

Entering the hall, the guests sat down one after another, and Tai Shici was arranged by Gongsun Zant to the top of the banquet. After Tai Shici knelt down in this position, he felt the hot eyes of Tian Kai, Yan Gang and other fierce generals. Of course, that hot look is not full of admiration, but jealousy and even hatred.

Tai Shici felt that a good play would be staged soon. With the ceremonial official's promise, the banquet officially began: the 20 musicians kneeling at the door of the hall played with their hands, and a clear and gorgeous palace music rose. In the pleasant music, the two-line palace beauty floated in from the door with a tray in their hands. They added dishes and wine to the tables of the host and guests in the order of their seats.

Tai Shici, who has entered the role, looked like a countryman entering the city for the first time. For a moment, he looked at the guests sitting upright, and for a moment, he looked at the maid who shuttled like a butterfly, and looked like a local cat in the elegant hall.

Gongsun Zan looked at Taishi Ci's lack of eyes, so he pinched his voice and said to Taishi Ci, "General Taishi, if you like any beautiful girl, just tell her directly..."

When Tai Shici heard the words, he pretended to be shy and lowered his head. It was not until he drank three rounds of wine and five flavors that Tai Shici's expression and movements were much more natural. Under the attention of everyone, Taishi Ci gave a toast to Gongsun Zant, "Pongsun Muhou, the humble function has been treated so solemnly by the Muhou, and I am deeply panicked!" A cup of honoring herdsman..."

Tai Shici looked flattered, which caused a few people to smile. Tai Shici ignored those people. He put down the wine bottle and let the maid to drink. At the same time, he sincerely praised Gongsun Zan and said, "Gongsun Muhou, before I just thought that the Muhou was good at commanding the army to fight. Today, I witnessed the scene all over Jicheng all the way, which really opened my eyes: the fields around Jicheng. The crops are growing happily, and the village is full of chickens and dogs. The trade in the market town is booming, people come and going, and the shouts of vendors are full of joy. The goods related to food, clothing, housing and transportation are more complete than the general urban business area. According to the observation of Beizhen, the prosperity of Jicheng is definitely greater than that of any city in the Qingzhou, and its peaceful journey is peaceful. It is like a paradise in the world... This happy land in the world is absolutely inseparable from the management of the shepherd's wisdom and martial arts!"

Tai Shici did not hesitate to praise Gongsun Zan. Gongsun Zan heard the words of praising him, especially what Taishi Ci said in person. Naturally, he was very useful. He smiled and waved his hand to Tai Shici and said, "Ha ha, General Taishi, you are so honored! The current situation in Jicheng is the result of the joint operation of Jicheng! ...Ha ha, what can I do with the strength of Ben Mu alone..."

After Gongsun Zun finished speaking, he replied to Tai Shici. After that, Gongsun Zan asked Taishici how Taishici left Chang'an City and returned to Qingzhou. Tai Shici naturally told that it was true and false: the route of return was real, but the time of return and the materials escorted with the army were false. Of course, Tai Shici would not show to Gongsun Zan that the property accumulated by Li Li and Guo Yan, the head of the Xiliang Legion, had been swallowed by him alone... The change near Luoyang City in the middle was deliberately concealed by Tai Shici.

After that, Gongsun Zan asked Taishici about the results of the struggle between Liu Yao in Qingzhou and the Sun Group in Jiangdong. Taishi Ci frankly told Gongsun Zan what he said to Lieutenant Liu Yu. After listening to Tai Shici's explanation, Gongsun Zan said with a little thought: "The invasion of the Jiangdong Sun Group on Qingzhou is similar to that predicted by Ben Mu: Jiangdong Sun's Zhi is not in Qingzhou, but in Jiangxia County, Jingzhou. If Ben Mu's guess is good, the Sun family in Jiangdong will definitely launch a battle against Jiangxia County in the autumn..."

Although Youzhou and Jingzhou are thousands of miles apart, Gongsun Zan still knows the feud between the Sun family in Jiangdong and Huang Zu, the governor of Jiangxia County, Jingzhou. Hearing Gongsun Zan's remarks, everyone nodded and echoed, while Tai Shici nodded blankly in disbelief, and his movements were slightly stiff.

Gongsun Zan looked at the crowd like a torch, and then asked Taishici softly, "Taishi, what do you think of the trend of the Jiangdong Sun Group?"

Tai Shici pretended to be confused and said to Gongsun Zan, "Jihou, I don't understand these things, and I can't see them clearly... Ha ha, as long as the Jiangdong Sun Group does not target Qingzhou and start a war again, I will be satisfied with the inferior position!"

In the giggle of Tai Shici, Gongsun Zan pinched his anger and said to him, "Tai Shi, do you really follow Lieutenant Liu Yu?" At this time, everyone else here was whispering and toasting to each other. No one noticed the private conversation between Gongsun Zan and Tai Shici, which was not the cultivation of the innate realm. Even if they paid attention, they could not notice the conversation between the two. Pinching air and sound transmission is a super unique way of communication.

"Ha ha, Jihou, the humble position is to help Lieutenant Liu Yu resist the invasion of Rongdi in the north," Tai Shici took his chopsticks and put the vegetables into his mouth, while pinching his voice and answering Gongsun Zan.

"Ha ha, so it is!" Gongsun Zan smiled and said, "Tai Shi, I also know that Liu Yu spares no effort to pay for you... But Tai Shi, if Ben Mu tells you that the reason why Liu Yu wants to attract you is to use your combat strength to deal with Ben Mu, how will you deal with it?"

When Tai Shici heard that Gongsun Zan had spread the bottom card, he pretended to think for a while, and then he said to Gongsun Zan, "Jihou, the humble position has been cultivated by the Jihou. The humble position has not recied such kindness. How can he dare to have evil thoughts on Jihou? If Jihou thinks that Liu Yu's bridging of inferiority is to deal with Jihou, inferiority also understands why Liu Yu favors inferiority before... Jihou, don't worry, since Liu Yu is so sinister to inferiority, inferiority is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Hey, the humble position also knows where Liu Yu's treasure house is..."

When Gongsun Zan heard Tai Shici's statement, he suddenly felt much more cheerful. He opened his heart and said to Tai Shi Ci, "Tai Shi, it's true. At this time, Rongdi in the north invaded the border of Youzhou half a month in advance, which was actually the result of Liu Yu's old dog's plan behind his back. At the same time, Yuan Shao of Yizhou gathered heavy troops at the junction of Yizhou and Youzhou, and launched a thunderbolt attack on Youzhou at any time... In such a situation, Liu Yu not only ignored it, but also forced Ben Mu to disperse his troops to resist from The invasion of Rongdi in the north and Yuan Shao in the west... Taishi, if Liu Yu's old dog stabbed in the back at this time, I am in danger..."

When Tai Shici heard Gongsun Zan's heartfelt words, he couldn't help taking a deep breath: Yuan Shao from Yizhou also sent troops to invade Youzhou? This Yuan Shao's march is really secretive... The movement of Yuan Shao's side in Yizhou. If Gongsun Zan doesn't tell him in person, Tai Shici really doesn't know.

Tai Shici thought for a while, and then sent a voice to Gongsun Zan and said, "Jihou, don't worry, I swear that I will never do anything despicable to Jihou!" It's just that Liu Yu's old dog has not openly torn his face with Jihou, and there is no appropriate reason to leave him... Jihou, Liu Yu's side is gathering a large number of material and manpower to build a fortress in the southern suburbs of Yanjing City. However, due to Liu Yu's strict blockade, there is no way to explore the scale and pattern of this fortress. But Beizhi knew that Liu Yu had hidden all the treasures he had collected for many years in that fortress..."

"Ha ha, Taishi, you can't leave Liu Yu's side." Gongsun Zan squinted at the colorful, fragrant dishes on the table, and continued to pass on to Tai Shici in silence: "Tai Shi, as long as your heart stands in the position of Ben Mu, Ben Mu is fully sure to completely destroy the power of Liu Yu's old dog... Tai Shi, at present, you still need to gain the deeper trust of Liu Yu's old dog. I am in danger on all sides, and I also use tricks to get out of danger. The success of the scheme requires the cooperation of Taishi. Taishi, next you just need to do it like this..."

Gongsun Zand told Tai Shici about the plot. Tai Shici accepted it in silence!
