"Brothers, we have two great victories today. We will record the merits first. We will discuss the merits and reward them after the Heroes Conference is over. Let's have a banquet today. I am here to respect my brothers!"
Seeing that the show was almost over and the banquet was coming to an end, Sun Lei stood up with a smile and raised his glass and said to everyone in Liangshan. Qinbei Pavilion
"Congratulations brother!"
Everyone in Liangshan stood up with a smile, picked up their wine glasses, looked at Sun Lei and said.
"Everyone, today's banquet ends here. If you haven't had enough fun, there is also a lantern parade in the town."
Sun Lei then looked at the other guests and said, since it is the Lantern Festival, it is indispensable to enjoy the lanterns and guess riddles. The lantern riddles were all thought up by everyone in Liangshan. The elegant ones were created by Xiao Jiasui, Wen Huanzhang and others, and the vulgar ones were even imagined by Li Kui. There are a bunch of them, anyway, it covers all aspects, and there are rewards for guessing correctly. Sun Lei doesn't give anything for nothing. From a penny to a tael of silver, as long as you guess correctly, you can take off the lantern and exchange it immediately.
After the banquet was over, everyone went to have their own fun. In addition to the lantern festival, Liangshan Town also had tiles that were still open for business, so those who weren't having enough fun could still continue.
"Fake monk, let's go and have another drink!"
Lu Zhishen was in a high mood today. He played with Guan Sheng for a while and was in a good mood. When he saw Deng Yuanjue, he shouted hello. In the past few days, he often invited Deng Yuanjue to drink. Lu Zhishen even gave Deng Yuanjue the nickname "Fake Monk" because Deng Yuanjue called himself A Buddhist monk joined Mingjiao, but Lu Zhishen did not admit that Mingjiao came from Buddhism.
"Haha, the poor monk will go and accompany you!"
Deng Yuanjue didn't care what Lu Zhishen said about a fake monk. Since he joined Mingjiao, he had long been expelled from Buddhism, so it was not wrong to say he was a fake monk.
"Brother Hua Rong!"
Song Jiang pulled Zhang Shun, waved and looked at Hua Rong and shouted that he was going to invite Zhang Shun and Hua Rong to go to the lantern festival together to build a relationship.
"Brother Gongming!"
Hua Rong didn't want to meet Song Jiang again. He always felt that he owed Sun Lei for Wang Daoren's matter. Although Sun Lei said that he would not do it this time, he was still worried. He was the first person in Liangshan to make Sun Lei eat his words. , which made him feel a sense of indebtedness that he had never felt before. Now his mind was filled with how to make up for Sun Lei.
"Brother Hua Xian, we are having a great day today, why are you so unhappy? I just happened to call Brother Zhang Shun, why don't we go enjoy the lanterns together? Chief Sun has made this Lantern Festival really lively and festive!"
Song Jiang pulled Zhang Shun to Hua Rong's side, and naturally took Hua Rong's arm, as if they were brothers and went to the lantern festival together.
"Brother Gongming, little brother and..."
Hua Rong wanted to withdraw his arm and refuse Song Jiang's invitation, but Song Jiang's grip was tight and it was difficult for him to break free.
"Brother Hua Xian, this little girl is already married, what else do you have to do? Leader Sun just said that you should have fun today!"
Seeing that Hua Rong was about to refuse, Song Jiang knew that it must be because of Wang Daoren's affairs, so he quickly used Sun Lei's words to block Hua Rong's mouth so that Hua Rong could not refuse.
"All right."
Hua Rong said helplessly.
"Haha, let's go to the lantern festival."
Song Jiang smiled and pulled Zhang Shun and Hua Rong towards Liangshan Town.
Sun Lei was not in a hurry to return to Liangshan, but took Hua Chan and Li Shishi to visit the lantern festival. The two girls were in a good mood today. They pointed at the beautiful lanterns and looked at the lantern riddles on them and sometimes took off the lanterns and replaced them with a smile. Reward, sometimes frowning and thinking about the answer.
Sun Lei was not interested in guessing lantern riddles. He had seen these lantern riddles a long time ago and knew the answers to them clearly. He kept nodding his head while looking at the lively Lantern Festival. This kind of prosperity was what he wanted.
Liangshan Town is very lively inside and outside. Some smart farmers even set up food stalls, and there are many artists who come here because of the reputation. There are shadow puppet shows, puppet shows, juggling and various performances. The combination of the two makes the lantern festival more enriched. Colorful.
He plans to hold this kind of lantern festival every year in the future. When the Heroes Conference is over and people from all walks of life leave, Liangshan will be famous all over the world. By then, there will be an endless stream of people coming from north to south, and the income brought by merchants and tourists will be considerable. of.
It was already midnight when the entire lantern festival was finished. The tourists gradually dispersed, and the night of joy also came to an end.
Back in Liangshan, Sun Lei asked Hua Chan and Li Shishi to rest first while he went to Duanjin Pavilion.
Tang Bin and Hao Siwen were drinking with Guan Sheng at Duanjin Pavilion. Guan Sheng was defeated and surrendered to Liangshan today. Naturally, he was not in the mood to go to any lantern festival. Tang Bin and Hao Siwen were drinking with Guan Sheng here. Duanjin Pavilion is located halfway up Liangshan Mountain. You can also see the lively Liangshan Town while drinking here.
"elder brother!"
When Tang Bin and Hao Siwen saw Sun Lei coming, they quickly stood up and clasped their fists.
When Guan Sheng saw Sun Lei coming, he sighed and stood up and cupped his hands. He was now a prisoner and had no arrogance.
"Everyone, take a seat."
Sun Lei sat down with a smile and waved his hand.
"General Guan, I didn't expect that the first batch of soldiers and horses to attack Liangshan were brought by the general. How long have we been apart?"
Sun Lei looked at Guan Sheng with a smile.
"The king is successful and the bandits are defeated, Guan Sheng is defeated, please do as you wish!"
Guan Sheng looked at Sun Lei and said.
"General Guan has misunderstood. I have no intention of humiliating General Guan. Victory or defeat is a common thing for military officers. One success or failure does not mean anything. I am thinking about what General Guan will do in the future."
Sun Lei looked at Guan Sheng and smiled and said, he was not in the mood to humiliate Guan Sheng in the middle of the night. Guan Sheng's staying or leaving was a problem. It would be easy to keep Guan Sheng, but if Guan Sheng still had the idea of serving the imperial court, then There is no point in staying. In the original work, these surrendered generals were the main force of the surrender faction of the Liangshan court.
"Brother, Brother Guan actually has no intention of becoming an enemy of Liangshan!"
Tang Bin quickly explained.
Sun Lei shook his head and did not comment on Tang Bin's words. Regardless of whether Guan Sheng was truly an enemy of Liangshan or not, it was a fact that he led troops to attack this time.
"General Guan, I think that when Guan Yu surrendered to Cao Cao, he was in Cao's camp and his heart was with the Han. In the end, he left Cao Cao and joined Liu Bei. If General Guan still has the court in his heart, it is better to choose a day to go down early."
Sun Lei looked at Guan Sheng and said with a smile, Liangshan only accepts those who sincerely rebel, and those who have other intentions should leave the mountain as soon as possible.
"elder brother!"
Tang Bin became anxious when he heard this and asked Guan Sheng to leave. Wouldn't there be a war next time?
Hao Siwen next to him was indeed silent, but he was quite shocked in his heart. Guan Sheng was excellent both in martial arts and in leadership ability. Most people would try their best to win over such a powerful general when he surrendered, but Sun Lei smiled. Push it outward.
"I really can't understand my brother."
Hao Siwen thought silently in his heart.
"Chief Sun, are you willing to let me go?"
Guan Sheng stared at Sun Lei with a pair of red phoenix eyes. He didn't believe his ears. Sun Lei let him go so easily?
"With brothers Tang Bin and Hao Siwen here, if General Guan doesn't have this intention, can I still confine General Guan? It's better not to do such a dilemma."
Sun Lei nodded. He had seen a lot of difficult things during this period and his head hurt. If Guan Sheng didn't want to stay, it would be better to let him go.
"That section of Lieutenant Commander and General Xuan?"
Guan Sheng looked at Sun Lei and asked.
"General Guan, the reason for letting you go is because of brothers Tang Bin and Hao Siwen. If the others want to be taken away, then just follow the old rules and redeem them with money."
Sun Lei waved his hand and said, Liangshan is not a Shantang, and he does not have the heart of a Bodhisattva.
