C52 Evening Feast

Name:Back to the Three Kingdoms Author:
Li Su stood up, and cupped his fists towards Chen Lang: "General Chen, I still have to go inform the others, I will take my leave."

Chen Lang stood up and cupped his fists: "Since General Li has matters to attend to, I will not keep General Li. I hope we can sit down and have a drink sometime. " Li Su nodded, then turned and left. Chen Lang looked at the entrance of the tent, deep in thought.

Guan Yu and the other two came over, and cupped their fists towards Chen Lang: "Big brother (wolf brother) (General)!"

Chen Lang retracted his gaze, looked at the three of them, and smiled: How's the army training going? The three of them could not help but reveal a look of joy, Gan Ning said excitedly: "All of you, look at how lively you are! "Haha!"

Chen Lang returned to his seat and said, "Dong Zhuo's birthday is coming up in two days, I want to congratulate the Grand Preceptor's estate. There will be a few days where I will be absent from the military camp. The three of them clasped their fists in acknowledgement.

The Grand Preceptor was overjoyed at his birth! The entire Luoyang City was decorated, the streets were filled with singing and dancing, the citizens enjoyed a rare moment of happiness, the atmosphere was jubilant, it was even more lively than the annual Spring Festival! At this moment, the people of Luoyang had temporarily forgotten their worries and pain.

The Grand Preceptor's estate was brightly lit with colorful ribbons fluttering in the wind. The magnificent lanterns lit up the entire estate, turning it into a heavenly palace. In front of the gates, a stream of well-dressed civil and military ministers came to the estate, cheering on the Grand Preceptor's literary and martial arts skills. The melodious music of bamboo drifted out from within the estate, making the commoners feel as if the estate was a completely different world.

Chen Lang came to the Grand Preceptor's estate alone, dressed in casual attire and carrying a gift box. He handed the gift box to the servant welcoming guests at the entrance and walked through the gates.

Arriving at the Grand Preceptor's estate, he saw a crowd gathering. The banquet had not yet officially started, and Dong Zhuo still hadn't appeared. The guests had gathered in groups of three or five to say these words. There were civil servants, military generals, and the wives of many ministers.

Suddenly, a burst of singing or howling came from the corridor on the left. "I'm standing in the fierce wind, wishing I could live with a heartache today …" Chen Lang was startled and couldn't help but look towards the source of the voice. He saw a group of generals from the West Cold Army gathered together to sing a wild wine song, singing it to the song that he sang that day, "Bidding Deity". This made Chen Lang feel a little surprised. Actually, Chen Lang stayed in the army camp all day, not knowing the extent of the "Overlord Bie Ji" s popularity in the Luoyang. Not only did it spread among the commoners, it also spread through the various armies. It could be said that this "Overlord Bie Ji" was already the hottest song in the entire Luoyang, when a man drank a few mouthfuls of wine, he would always roar out a few times. However, everyone was singing the same tune. Compared to the original version, they were much more unrecognizable.

"General Ying Yang!" A woman's voice suddenly came from behind Chen Lang.

When Chen Lang turned around, he only felt a light flash in front of his eyes. It turned out that a peerless beauty with flowing red palace dress and flowing hair was standing not far in front of Chen Lang.

Chen Lang felt that the lady in front of him was familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen her before. He couldn't help but smile and ask: "Miss, have we met before?"

The lady snorted and said: "I have seen the general, but I'm afraid the general doesn't remember me!" At this moment, the Western Lion General's howls came again, "Be a hero in your next life, let's go back to the Setting Sun!" Although it was not a beautiful melody, but the blood of a man rushed to his face.

The girl looked over to the source of the voice and sighed, "I thought that the person who could write such a song would definitely be an extremely powerful man! I never thought that he would actually be a vile person who fears death, covetous for wealth! "

Chen Lang was startled, then laughed: "Could it be that young miss is talking about me?"

The lady turned around and looked at Chen Lang, her beautiful eyes clearly revealing an infinite amount of anger. But why did you give up halfway through? "

Chen Lang laughed: "I think Miss has misunderstood. I, Chen Lang, am not a good person. "Since he lost his life for nothing, he might as well join the Grand Preceptor's side and enjoy wealth and prosperity!" The lady did not expect the other party to say such words. She was angered to the point that her beautiful face paled. This is too disappointing! " With that, he flicked his sleeves and left.

Chen Lang laughed, rubbed his chin, and muttered with a self-deprecating tone: "After being scolded, you still don't know which one it is?"

"General Chen." A man's voice sounded.

Chen Lang looked up and saw a skinny Jia Xu smiling as he walked over. As a result, he cupped his fists and said: "So it's Mister Jia, long time no see."

Jia Xu smiled and cupped his fists: "General Chen is still as elegant as ever!" Chen Lang laughed.

Jia Xu looked at the lady that was talking to Chen Lang a while ago and asked with a smile: "Is General very familiar with Miss Cai?"

Chen Lang glanced at the lady, and laughed: "I was scolded by her, but I still don't know who she is!"

Jia Xu was startled, then laughed out loud: "That lady's surname is Cai, and her name is Yan, she is the daughter of Great Scholar Cai."

Chen Lang's heart was moved, of course he knew of this woman who was extremely famous in the history of China. This Cai Yan's talent and both of his fates were troubled, his life experiences could be said to be a legend. In the future, many of his poems and even movies would describe her. However, Chen Lang felt that no matter if it was the image in the poems or movies, they were all incomparable to the real Cai Yan. If they really had to compare, Cai Wenji was like a firefly in later generations' movie and TV series, while the real Cai Wenji was just like a firefly in the sky, which was really amazing.

Chen Lang looked at Cai Yan in the distance and could not help but exclaim, "So it's her, she is indeed peerless!"

Jia Xu coldly snorted, "No matter what kind of woman she is, in the end, it's still a thing to harm others!"

Chen Lang retracted his gaze and laughed: "Mr Jia, your words are too extreme! "The Sovereign King had never abandoned the imperial government for the sake of his woman before. That was only a matter for the Sovereign King himself, how can he blame the woman?"

Chen Lang laughed, suspecting that this Mister Jia before him had suffered under a woman before, why else would he have such hatred?

Jia Xu looked at his surroundings, and said: "General, can we go to a secluded place to talk?" Chen Lang also wanted to talk to the legendary Poison Master, so he nodded his head.

The two of them came to a small cobblestone road near the wall. It was a quiet place far away from the crowd.

Chen Lang replied, "Mister Jia once said, I hope the Grand Preceptor can break the old order in order to establish a new order."

Jia Xu nodded.

Chen Lang said, "The old order seems to have been completely broken, but I can't see any signs of the new order at all."

Jia Xu smiled. "The Grand Preceptor is the best person to destroy this place, but the person who can restore order is definitely not the Grand Preceptor!"

Chen Lang was a little surprised and asked: "Then what does Mister Jia think is the best way to re-establish a new order?"

Jia Xu looked at Chen Lang, and his eyes flashed with a strange light as he said with a smile: "It's you, General!"

Chen Lang jumped in fright, and laughed: "Mister must be joking!"

Jia Xu laughed, turned his head and looked at the stars in the sky, and said: "These so-called heroes in troubled times, if we do not let the world become chaotic, how can heroes be born!" Chen Lang was startled, in his heart he vaguely felt that this Jia Xu seemed to be plotting a game of chess that was hard to imagine.

Jia Xu turned to look at Chen Lang and smiled, "Back then, when Cao Cao Cao was unable to assassinate the Grand Preceptor and escaped from Guan Dong, the Grand Preceptor suspected that the General and Cao Cao were together. I was the one who made Li Ru suggest the Grand Preceptor to summon the General to his estate for a meeting to test him!" Chen Lang did not understand what Jia Xu meant. Jia Xu smiled slightly and said, "General and Cao Cao Cao are very close. No matter if he is involved in Cao Cao's conspiracy or not, when he receives the Grand Preceptor's summons, he will not dare to say anything!"

Chen Lang laughed bitterly: "Sir, did you really not think that you could possibly kill me by doing this?"

Jia Xu smiled and said, "The facts have proven that not only did I not harm the general, I even helped him!" Chen Lang's heart skipped a beat. He faintly felt that Jia Xu had other intentions behind his actions. Smiling, he cupped his fist and said, "Thank you very much, mister!"

Jia Xu smiled and waved his hand, saying, "General, you don't have to thank me. This was all fought for by the general himself. If it were anyone else, they would have already been decapitated! "

Chen Lang laughed, then asked: "Mister is truly resourceful, can you predict how the situation will develop in the future?"

Jia Xu laughed: "I would like to hear the general's opinion first."

Chen Lang laughed and nodded: "Alright, then I will take the initiative." Pausing for a moment, he continued: "Yuan Shao is proud and arrogant, he has always had great ambitions, Cao Cao Cao is definitely not an ordinary person, his will is tenacious, although the two of them were defeated in Luoyang, but they will not let this go, I think that before long, they will make their move. As for the other dukes, hehe, there's not a single one who's a good person. If Grand Preceptor Dong had done something they didn't dare to do, then they'd probably all be stirred up! "
