Chapter 686: Hongmen Banquet
Zhong Hui's eyes swept and said in a deep voice: "Why aren't Hu Lie and Qiu Jian here?" ”
Wei Qian said: "I arranged for them to lead troops to patrol outside to test safety." ”
Zhong Hui said with a little displeasure: "This is the ground of Jingzhou, under the rule of King Fufeng, are the guards still worried that someone will come to make trouble?" The Chinese army, the Hu Hujun and the Qiu Hujun came quickly, on such an occasion, wouldn't it not give face to the Fufeng King if he didn't attend. ”
Before handing over the military talisman, Zhong Hui was still the governor of this army and had the highest command power, and after hearing the order, the middle officer in front of the tent immediately turned around and went down to summon Hu Lie and Qiu Jian.
Wei Qian was slightly stunned, originally he arranged for Hu Lie and Qiu Jian to lead troops to patrol the camp, just in case of accidents, but he didn't expect Zhong Hui to act so decisively, and directly ordered the two to come.
Sima Liang smiled and said: "Since the two guards have responsibilities, it doesn't matter if they don't come, it is a great pleasure for this king to be able to get drunk with General Zhong's guard and supervise the army today." ”
Zhong Hui said stubbornly: "When the Fufeng King is coming, he will greet him in a queue to show his respect, if the Hu Hujun Qiu Protector is absent, wouldn't it be a great disrespect to the Fufeng King, what kind of system?" What's more, under the rule of King Fufeng, Jingzhou is politically clear, orderly, does not close the door at night, and does not leave the road behind. ”
Sima Liang said a little flutteringly: "General Zhong is not wrong, in Jingzhou today, although it is impossible to talk about the road, but the order is not bad at all, under the rule of this king, no one dares to come nonsense." ”
Although Wei Qian had some worries, he was relieved to see that Xiahou Xian, Ju'an, Wang Mai and other generals were in the tent, and he thought that in order to show respect for King Fufeng, Zhong Hui asked all the generals under the account to come to the banquet, so Wei Qian didn't say anything more.
After a while, Hu Lie and Qiu Jian came outside the main tent, both of them were dressed in military uniforms, with helmets and armor, hanging swords and swords, and the two of them were about to enter the tent, when the guards at the door stopped them and said, "Two generals, please leave the swords." ”
"Why is that?" Hu Lie said in surprise, when the Chinese military account was discussed before, he had never heard of the rule of unraveling the sword, and the generals who entered the account were all wearing swords and swords, and today Zhong Hui actually asked them to untie the sword and enter the account, Hu Lie and Qiu Jian were deeply inexplicable.
The guard explained: "Today, when a distinguished guest arrives, Governor Zhong has specially instructed all the people attending the meeting not to bring weapons into the room, so as not to disturb the distinguished guests. Two generals, this is the order of the governor, and I ask for your cooperation. ”
Hu Lie and Qiu Jian hesitated, but they didn't dare to disobey Zhong Hui's order, if Zhong Hui blamed it, they might not be able to bear it, the two thought about it, and they could only untie their swords and hand them over to the guards, and then they strode into the tent, walked to the front of the banquet, and bowed their hands and said: "The last general Hu Lie (Qiu Jian) will see the governor, see the king of Fufeng." ”
Zhong Hui just glanced at it lightly and said, "Two protectors, are you too late, why don't you punish yourself for three cups and ask the Fufeng King for your guilt?" ”
At this time, the sergeant handed over the wine glass, Hu Lie and Qiu Jian did not dare to disobey, and toasted Sima Liang with the glass.
Sima Liang smiled and said, "The two generals are duty-oriented, what is the crime, come and come, drink together." Sima Liang raised his glass to invite, and everyone in the tent also raised their glasses, and the banquet officially began.
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food, and staggered planning, the atmosphere in the big tent is peaceful.
Sima Liang was obviously a little drunk, and the people in the big tent took turns to toast him, and it was strange if he didn't drink high.
A sneer appeared at the corner of Zhong Hui's mouth, and he secretly handed a look to Xiahou Xian, who understood, pressed his hand on his abdomen, pretended to go to the toilet, confessed to the people around him, and withdrew from the big tent.
Originally, Xiahou Xian stayed in an inconspicuous place at the end, the atmosphere in the big tent was happy, everyone was drinking happily, at this time, Xiahou Xian's withdrawal, naturally no one paid attention, even Wei Qian, who had always been alert, his attention was all on Zhong Hui's body, and he didn't see when Xiahou Xian left.
Zhong Hui picked up the wine glass and said to Sima Liang: "Passing through Jingzhou under the next pass, I am sincerely treated by the King of Fufeng, and I am not very grateful, so I would like to pay tribute to the King of Fufeng with this cup and express my gratitude." ”
Sima Liang waved his hand again and again, and said, "This king is not strong enough to drink, so he can't drink anymore." General Zhong, taking advantage of this effort, why don't we do the delivery by the way, I don't know where the tiger talisman is? ”
Zhong Hui's face suddenly became gloomy, and he said coldly: "Why, King Fufeng can't wait to take away my military power?" Zhong Hui's voice was neither high nor low, but it was full of energy, and the words were like ice grains, which could be heard clearly.
The tent suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes fell on Zhong Hui's body, and everyone was surprised.
The smile became stiff on Sima Liang's face, and the solidified lines made Sima Liang's fat face very funny, he looked at Zhong Hui with some surprise, it was hard to imagine that Zhong Hui, who was smiling and bowing a few breaths ago, changed his face in an instant, and he said curtly: "This ......"
Also with a big change in his face was Wei Qian, who was obviously a little caught off guard by Zhong Hui's attitude, and said in a lost voice: "Zhong Dudu, didn't you say that you would hand over to King Fufeng today?" ”
Zhong Hui's gaze became colder, and two cold rays crossed the faces of Sima Liang and Wei Qian, giving people a chilling feeling, and Zhong Hui's voice was even more cold and piercing like a thousand years of cold ice at this moment: "In your plan, it is not only the military power that will be handed over, but also the head of the governor, right?" ”
Sima Liang came to his senses at this moment, and said a little angrily: "General Zhong, what do you mean by this?" ”
Zhong Hui sneered and said: "It's very simple, if you want the head of this governor, you can weigh it yourself and see if your head can be kept?" As he spoke, Zhong Hui slammed the sprinkling glass in his hand to the ground, and with a crisp sound, the glass shattered into several petals.
Just when everyone in the tent was stunned, shouts of killing outside the tent abounded, and countless soldiers with swords in their hands poured into the tent together, led by Xiahou Xian.
Xiahou Xian led the troops into the tent, and he didn't go to the tent door at all, but waved his sword together, smashing the cowhide handsome tent, and all the soldiers poured in from all directions, but it was just a few breaths of work, and everyone present was forced by the sword of the cold light, and they couldn't move.
Sima Liang's frightened face was like earth, he sat down on the seat, and muttered to himself: "Hongmen banquet...... It turned out to be a Hongmen banquet ......" (to be continued.) )
