Emperor Qin Ba Shi

Chapter 572 Fan Zeng Across Jiujiang (2)

Time flies, and half an hour flies by.

Fan Zeng and his group have finished washing and changed into neat clothes. Everyone looks energetic and energetic.

After all, after washing away the exhaustion of the long journey and the dust, it will naturally change a lot.

Especially Xiang Zhuang and others, who are all descended from nobles, their own conditions are extremely good, so after washing.Immediately, he showed his grandeur.

Xiang Zhuang swung his sword a few times, calmed down, and said to Fan Zeng who was standing calmly, "Yafu, why did the Prime Minister of Jiujiang hold a banquet at his mansion?"

Although Xiang Zhuang is a general, he is still clear about certain things.After all, he and Xiang Yu, the Overlord of Western Chu, received the same education when they were with Xiang Liang.

Although he was reckless, Xiang Zhuang still knew the etiquette that the Xiang family was a nobleman of the Chu Kingdom.

At this time, when an envoy from one country arrives, in the capital of another country, he will either be washed away in the post house, or at the palace ceremony.

With the status of his father Fan Zeng, the kindness of Western Chu to Jiujiang and other countries, and the power of Western Chu to dominate the world, Jiujiang Wang Yingbu should treat Fan Zeng solemnly.

Therefore, this time, it is reasonable to say that it should be above the main hall of King Yingbu's palace in Jiujiang.

Zhao Yan's actions at this moment, in a certain sense, are already disrespectful.Because of this, Xiang Zhuang asked.

"No problem!"

Fan Zeng's expression didn't change at all, as if he couldn't hear the hidden meaning in Xiang Zhuang's tone, and the breath in his whole body didn't change at all.

As soon as the word "no hindrance" came out, no one talked to each other immediately. They knew that with Yafu Fan Zeng's intelligence, he naturally understood the meaning of Xiang Zhuang's tone.

"Remember, this time we are attacking Qin together, and the old man believes that Jiujiang Wang Yingbu is aware of the current situation in the world and will not mess around."

At this moment, Fan Zeng's eyebrows and eyes were extremely confident. He knew that judging from the backhand he left behind when he divided up the kings, this time is the time to play a role.

Moreover, Qin Emperor Hu Hai was in full swing, and the rise of the Great Qin Empire was too rapid, which had already made everyone in the world fearful.

And this fear of the Great Qin Empire and Qin Emperor Hu Hai can be used to great advantage, coupled with a solid tongue, it is enough to let the Shandong countries put down their prejudices and form a bond.

The general trend of the kingdoms of Shandong that once shocked the world to jointly attack Qin will be repeated in his hands.

……

Fan Zeng and the others did not wait long before being picked up by a carriage in Zhao Yan's residence.

This is the place where Zhao Yan has always met guests, and it is impossible for ordinary people to set foot there.

……

The reception banquet was arranged in the main hall of the house in the backyard. Although it was not very magnificent, it also had the majesty unique to literati.

According to Fan Zeng's current status and power, the reception banquet should have been held above the palace hall.

But now it was getting late, Jiujiang Wang Yingbu did not reveal such meaning, even if Zhao Yan knew what was wrong, he had to do this.

Originally, Zhao Yan wanted to show neither humbleness nor overbearing in front of Fan Zeng, and wanted to set up the reception banquet in the post house, but the post house was too small, with only five bays and six entrances, and the side yard was full of other people, so it was inconvenient to receive the wind and wash away the dust.

Although in the post house, it is a state matter, and you can mediate both advances and retreats, and you can keep yourself innocent.But Zhao Yan knew that Fan Zeng was different from other envoys.

This envoy, who is over seventy years old, stomped his feet, and the entire land of the Central Plains would be shaken three times.

To the land of the Central Plains, Jiujiang is just a tiny place, and to Western Chu, Jiujiang is just a small vassal state.

There is only one county in Jiujiang in Jiujiang Kingdom. If its king Yingbu is not a famous power, among the many Shandong kingdoms, Jiujiang Kingdom is just ordinary and cannot be more ordinary.

And this time, Fan Zeng chose Jiujiang Kingdom as the first one because of Jiujiang Wang Yingbu's ability to conquer and fight well, which is an indispensable part of Fan Zeng's layout.

At this time, no matter whether it was Zhao Yan or Fan Zeng, both of them had the intention of wooing each other in their hearts. Because of this, there was an exceptional harmony at the banquet.

After entering the table, everyone looked different, each with their own goals and plans, and calculated in their hearts the gains and losses from this banquet.

In the hall at this moment, the four long cases have already been lined up, Fan Zeng has the highest position and the largest area, located in the middle of the east, and Zhao Yan is facing him.

At the same time, several people from Xiang Zhuang, Wu She, and Jiujiang Kingdom were seated on both sides, as a foil to this weird banquet, and the atmosphere was harmonious for a while.

At this time, Zhao Yan, as the host, shouted at Fan Zeng and the others, "Mr. Chu and everyone have arrived today, just in time. Come, let's be a noble first, and clean up the dust for you all!"

"Dry!"

For a moment, Tong Jue faced each other, and everyone drank it all in one gulp.This is even true for Yafu Fan Zeng. Although he is old, his drinking capacity is not inferior to anyone present.

Chu people are good at drinking!

This is something that everyone knows, even if Fan Zeng has such a huge amount, everyone doesn't think it's a big deal.

"Hiss, this wine is so powerful!" Wu She, who was used to drinking soft Chu wine, smacked his lips: "Could it be Qin wine—?"

At this moment, Wu She was yelling with his mouth full of alcohol and his face flushed.He is just a strategist, not a soldier in the army, so his body is far inferior to others.

Moreover, the strength of Qin wine is the best in the world.

This has already become the consensus of the people in the world, so when the wine is strong, the first thing people in the world think of is Qin Jiu.

"This is not Qin Jiu. I didn't expect Zhao Jiu to be so cold." After all, Fan Zeng was old, and his forehead was sweating after a cup of wine.

Zhao Qinjiu is like a nation, they are all extremely brave, even Zhaojiu makes people feel hot all over.

Xiang Zhuang, who has long been used to spirits, is very energetic at this time: "Good wine, good wine! This wine is on par with Qin wine, and it is the love of our hearts."

It has become a consensus between heaven and earth that warriors are good at wine, especially spirits, so that when Xiang Zhuang said this, the others just smiled and did not refute.

At the same time, Zhao Yan just smiled faintly at this time, as if he was unaware of the strong Zhao Jiu, and said with a smile: "Today, I want to respect the military commander of Chu, who is a role model for my generation."

After saying that, Zhao Yan made a move towards Fan Zeng, and then he raised the bronze jue and drank.

At this time, although everyone was tasting wine, it was not a confrontation. This was a confrontation between Zhao Yan and Fan Zeng, and it was also a confrontation between Jiujiang Kingdom and Xichu.
