Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 884

The reception banquet lasted from noon to evening, Lan Tian kept smiling at everyone, but no one dared to persuade them to drink until the end of the order, and the atmosphere in the hall was always cheerful.

Zhang Zhao wanted to toast several times to ask why, but in the end he was hesitant because of the large number of people in the hall, so he felt as if he was sitting on pins and needles at the banquet.

Seeing that it was late, Lan Tian got up and clasped his fists and said loudly: "It is a great honor to meet you today, but Lan is not able to drink well and can't accompany me anymore. I will take my leave first and go to rest. I will come to this hall on time tomorrow morning to manage the administration."

"Where is the Fujun going to rest? Do you need an old minister to arrange it for you? There are many idle rooms in the palace." Zhang Zhao got up in a hurry.

Lan Tian waved his hands and replied: "Lan is just a Yangzhou shepherd, living in the palace is really presumptuous, besides, I only have three fathers and sons, and I have entrusted Hui Shu (Zhang Wen) to find me a small courtyard to live in temporarily, which seems to be not far outside the palace. place, don’t worry about Zibu.”

"Uh, Huishu handled the matter properly, the Lord will be satisfied when he sees it." Zhang Zhao was taken aback when he heard this, and then he handed him off.

Zhang Zhao recalled that before the banquet, Lan Tian had a few words with Zhang Wen alone, probably to find the other party to arrange a residence, but why didn't he find the old man?If you want to respect the elderly, you can find Zhongsi (Zhang Cheng).

Lan Tian's father and son left the venue one after another, Mi Fang, Hao Pu and other generals also followed, and soon only the courtiers of Eastern Wu were left in the hall, and they all gathered around the "favored" Zhang Wen.

The princes of one side fall like whales, and women and wealth will be divided up by the victors in an instant. Sun Ce broke through the Lujiang River in the past and Zhou Yu divided the big and small Joes. Yuan Shu's family, wealth, and trilogy also belonged to the Sun family. Qiao, but finally accepted Yuan Shu's daughter; Cao Cao broke through Yuan Shao's Yecheng, and Cao Pi took the Zhen family one step ahead of him.
No one will cast aside all kinds of deeds, and some things are even cited as a good talk. There has never been a team like Lantian, who will not provoke Sun Quan's harem. Zhang Wen was actually asked to live in a private house outside the palace, and Lan Tian made the credit for destroying the country, and Liu Bei didn't ask for it?

Lantian's elegance, smiling face, not greedy for beauty and other deeds made Jiangdong's officials unable to see through them for a while, but his character convinced them.

Zhang Zhao heard everyone's gossip, and thought that you are only at this level, you can't see the point when you look at the problem, and you don't have much political enlightenment at all.

Is that why Lan Tian doesn't want to do it?It should be because he is in a high position and dare not dare, but now this person holds a heavy army and has two sons of tiger generals as his wings, and he has surrendered all the minions of Jiangdong. Too similar to Lu Xun, he is cautious in everything he does, and he doesn't know what his childhood experience was like.

When Zhang Zhao shook his head and sneered, he suddenly found that Yu Xiu was missing from the hall. He punched his palm and chased him out. After entering the city, I pushed Zhang Wen in front of others, and I will sneakily show my loyalty to the past, and I can't let you take all the good things.

Zhang Zhao rushed over out of breath, the sky was gray and dark, and the soldiers outside the house stood tall, and Hu Ke was about to lead the team away after negotiating.

"Zecheng, walk slowly." Zhang Zhao rushed forward and called to stop.

"Mr. Zibu should be drinking in the palace, why did he leave here so quickly?" Hu Ke looked surprised.

"Why is the general here?" Zhang Zhao asked back with a frown.

Hu Ke said solemnly: "Mr. Lan is staying here temporarily. Of course, I have to come over to identify the door. I will turn around and explain to the nearby courtyard. It is best to move these people to other places so as not to disturb the quietness of the mansion."

"Heh, Yu Zecheng is said to be astute. Now that Guan's real name is well-deserved, the general is as careful as he is in handling things. I think the Lord of the Lan Mansion will definitely use it again? There is every inch of land near the palace, and your wife's family wealth is very powerful." Zhang Zhao said. Said deeply.

Hu Ke pointed to the soldiers standing guard and said with a smile: "Mr., you will know if you look at it, and the general will not be able to get into the eyes of the law at all."

"The general is really greedy. The entrapment army is the confidant of the government. What do you use to fight with them? Don't think about it anymore. Letting you continue to be in charge of Jianye city defense is already a great trust." Zhang Zhao shook his head and smiled wryly.

"Sir, what you say from the bottom of your heart, will definitely be remembered in the end." Hu Ke is still acting on the surface, but in his heart he is indescribably proud, what can I use to fight against the enemy?They were probably still crawling on the ground when General Ben was a lieutenant in the False Army.

"Where is the general going now? Do you want to visit Lord Lan?" Zhang Zhao asked again.

"The Fujun was on the road just now, and he gave a few words of encouragement to the general, so he didn't plan to meet alone. Didn't Mr. Zibu go out of the city last night?" Hu Ke shook his head first, and then asked curiously.

Zhang Zhao also shook his head lightly, "No one in the palace is busy. I just exchanged greetings last night. You have seen the situation today. There are too many officials in the palace, so I want to meet alone at this time. go?"

"The last one is stupid, I think it's better to forget it, Mr. Zibu can go on his own." Hu Ke cupped his fists as a bid to leave.

Hearing this, Zhang Zhao slandered, thinking that you are stupid?You can't even believe in ghosts, but you still politely replied: "It's fine if you don't go, the old man will give you a good word."

"Thank you, sir." Hu Ke tried to hide it from Zhang Zhao, and said in his heart that with your little ability, I'm afraid that you will be eaten to pieces by your husband.

Zhang Zhaohou was allowed to enter through a pass. In the courtyard, he saw Lan Ji playing with the long halberd vigorously. He couldn't help but yelled "Hello" in amazement, and then entered the main hall to see Lan Tian.

"Why did Mr. Zibu come out?" Lan Tian motioned for Zhang Zhao to sit next to him, and then asked curiously.

Zhang Zhao saluted and sat down and replied: "Forgive me, my lord, the old minister is impatient, and I can't hold back when I have something on my mind, so I came to disturb your rest."

"It's okay, it's still early, what's the matter, sir?" Lan Tian asked with a frown.

"The gentry in Jiangdong is deeply rooted and powerful in Yangzhou. Even Sun Quan couldn't control it when he was here. Seeing that the governor is showing favor to them today, do you also want to rely on these people? The veteran thinks that we need to be more cautious, otherwise a single family will not be able to check and balance." Zhang Zhao looked sad.

Lan Tian stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Like Sun Quan, push out a talent like Mr. Huaisi to check and balance the Jiangdong gentry? Don't you think it's cruel?"

"Where there are people, there are struggles, and political struggles are even more bloodless, but the veterans and them are willing to do so. If the government does not check and balance, it will be controlled by others." Zhang Zhao hissed and sighed.

"Sir, I'm worrying too much. Lan is just a Yangzhou shepherd, not a prince like Sun Quan. There is no need to play checks and balances. I just hope that the people are happy and the treasury is full. No matter Zibu or Jiangdong gentry, everyone can live in peace." Lan Tian shook his head lightly.

Zhang Zhao's face was full of bitterness, "Your Majesty thinks this way, but others may not think so. There are quite a few people in the state, but you and I are both foreigners. Jiangdong's nobles are united and xenophobic. Want to live in harmony? It's hard."

"Zibu, don't worry. Jiangdong will never be like Sun Quan, but now I need their help. Sun Quan's defeated army is still lingering. When the foreign enemies are really wiped out, I will re-establish the rules. Zibu, you are a veteran of several dynasties. Be patient and calm down." Lan Tian's words were a little harsh at the end.

Zhang Zhao smiled awkwardly, "The old minister is just too impatient."

"Zibu, be more patient. I said I would not treat you badly, so I will definitely not break my promise. I am tired." Lan Tian waved his hands helplessly.

"Uh, the old minister is bothering you." Zhang Zhao hurriedly turned around with his fists cupped.

Lan Tian looked outside the door and remained silent. Lan Yuan sighed and said, "I heard it in the back room just now. What does Zhang Zibu want? Don't you understand at such an old age? I thought I was under Sun Quan's command."

"Boyang should not be underestimated. This man has stood in Jiangdong for decades, and he is not someone to wait for. Now go to the back door and bring General Yu Xiu to me." Lan Tian ordered in a deep voice.

"You still call him General Yu?" Lan Yuan asked suspiciously.

"Don't ask too much, you'll know in a while."

"only."
