Shangguan Yu smiled lightly at Sima Ji and said, "Brother Sima is really making me laugh!" After hearing this, Sima Ji burst out laughing.
At that moment, the tense atmosphere suddenly became very harmonious. Shangguan Yu and Sima Ji were like old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years, and they actually hugged each other and smiled.
Sima Ji completely put down his ideological weapons, and with a sincere and humble attitude, he walked up the steps and followed Shangguan Yu slowly into the Shangguan Mansion.
I saw the small bridges and flowing water in the Shangguan Mansion, the pavilions like pavilions, the green trees, the chirping of birds and the fragrance of flowers. The Hongmen Hall was magnificent, decorated with lanterns, candlelight, and brightly lit, which created a unique scene.
Sima Jida thought to himself: "Shangguan Liang, as a prince, lives quite comfortably and well in Dongyang County!" "I, Sima Ji, must make good use of this prince and do something great." !”
"Please, brother Sima, come and take your seat!" Shangguan Yu very politely invited Sima Ji to his seat.
Sima Ji cupped his hands and thanked Shangguan Yu and Shangguan Liang: "Master Shangguan, please! Lord Shangguan, please!"
Later, Shangguan Liang sat on the chairman's seat in the middle of Hongmen Hall, with Shangguan Yu on the left and Sima Ji on the left. After the guest of honor took his seat, the banquet officially began, with singing and dancing, and it was very lively.
Shangguan Yu raised his wine glass, stood up and delivered a speech: "March in spring is full of red peaches and white willows, which is a good season in the world. However, the raging fire is not going to burn out. Cheng, Wu and other rebels are revolting. The world is in turmoil and the current situation is changing. I Shangguan Yu and Brother Sima also obeyed the destiny, walked the high road, worked hand in hand, and were successful in every battle! However, today, Brother Sima rode hundreds of miles alone to go to the banquet, not afraid of the hardships on the road, not afraid of beacon fire, crossbows and swords, sincere and sincere. Jia, your spirit is touching!" Shangguan Yu raised his glass and expressed his welcome and thanks to Sima Ji for his arrival.
"Master Shangguan is extraordinary in spirit, open-minded and broad-minded. He is truly a true hero and a great hero who saves the common people and the country from fire and water!" Sima Ji stood up and raised his glass and said, "I, Sima Ji, hereby pay my respects to Master Shangguan for the sincere banquet!" Sima Ji Ji said and drank it all in one gulp.
At the beginning of the banquet, Shangguan Yu and Sima Ji exchanged glasses and talked and laughed happily. Singing and dancing in the banquet hall added to the fun. After three drinks and six dances, Shangguan Liang could only hear three high-fives. A young woman with long hair shawl, holding a long sword, turned and rushed out from the right side of Hongmen Hall.
When Sima Ji saw this, he shuddered in his heart: "I am going to die here today!" He was sweating coldly and was so panicked that he almost spilled the wine in his hand.
Shangguan Liang noticed Sima Ji's panic expression, so he laughed "haha" and said: "Mr. Sima, don't be nervous, I just want you to experience Dongyang's sword dance! Come on, come on, come on, cheers!" After saying this, he toasted another glass of wine to Sima Ji.
Sima Ji calmed down a lot after hearing Shangguan Liang's words. He raised his glass and said repeatedly: "Sir Shangguan, please!"
I saw the young woman, holding a long sword in her hand, stepping forward to salute Shangguan Yu, Sima Ji and Shangguan Liang, and then danced gracefully to the rhythm of the music. Under the edge of her long sword, sometimes a rainbow pierces the sun, sometimes it overturns mountains and seas; sometimes it is as quiet as a coquettish rabbit, and sometimes it moves like a wild horse. In addition, the young women stretch their sleeves and twist their waists, and the sword skills and dance complement each other, which is beautiful and wonderful.
Shangguan Liang glanced at Sima Ji with drunken eyes, and saw Sima Ji staring at the young woman, almost drunk.
Shangguan Liang coughed lightly. He said to Sima Ji: "Mr. Sima doesn't know something. This woman is a real fairy who descended to earth. The sword in her hand is called 'Ruoshui Sword'. The beautiful sword dance, but I, Dongyang Shangguan Mansion, specially selected it for Mr. Sima." The banquet entertainment program, Mr. Sima will enjoy it!"
Sima Ji quickly calmed down his drunken attitude and forced a smile. He whispered to Shangguan Liang: "Sima Ji is very grateful to Shangguan Mansion for being so kind!" Then he raised his glass and toasted to Shangguan Liang. Sima Ji thought to himself: "The Shangguan Mansion invited me to a banquet and chose a beauty to dance with swords. It is obvious that he has no good intentions! But what kind of good show is he performing?" Sima Ji did not dare to indulge in the beauty sword dance, so he poured it on himself I drank two glasses of wine, cheered up, and forced myself to calm down.
In Shangguan Yu's blurred and drunken eyes, he could still see the sword dancer's skin as radiant as snow and her extremely beautiful appearance. Her pair of black pearl-like eyes really shone like pearls and jade; there was a faint sense of clarity between her brows. The nobility makes people feel very confident at first glance. He thought to himself: "Is there really such a beautiful woman in this world?" Shangguan Yu drank to himself in the sword dance of that young woman, and unknowingly drank five or six more glasses.
Shangguan Yu seemed a little drunk. Was he drunk on wine? Or are you obsessed with sword dancing? He couldn't tell the difference himself. Of course, he is obsessed with beauty. He seemed to have entered a beautiful world while drunk.
"Everyone, please step aside and let me show off my sword skills to cheer everyone up!" Suddenly, a thunderous scolding sound came from the left side of the Hongmen Hall. Shangguan Yu became sober after being given such a drink.
Sima Ji was startled again. I saw a young man who looked like a thin scholar entering the Hongmen Hall with a long sword in his hand. The dozen or so singers in the hall slipped out quietly like a school of fish. The young sword dancer held her sword and retreated to the back of the hall.
Shangguan Yu thought to himself: "What is this guy Murong Fei trying to do? What kind of trouble is this guy doing?"
Not allowing Shangguan Yu to think too much, Murong Fei started playing Longyou Sword. Murong Fei's Longyou Sword was pointed at Shangguan Liang, Shangguan Yu, and Sima Ji. Although his swordsmanship is exquisite, the shadow of his sword is graceful, and his sword power is as powerful as a rainbow, he always hits the right mark and stops at the right moment.
Sima Ji felt uneasy again and was in a dilemma. He thought to himself: "Doesn't this mean that I, Sima Ji, is being treated as a piece of fish in the case?"
Sima Ji heard Shangguan Yu clap his hands and applauded, so he tried to calm down again. He forced a smile and clinked glasses with Shangguan Liang again.
Shangguan Liang smiled and asked Sima Ji, "Mr. Sima, are you surprised?"
Sima Ji quickly forced a smile and said, "It's very exciting!"
Shangguan Liang said again: "Actually, drinking is an adventure. I'm afraid you don't have the courage!"
"Drinking is really fun, and you don't have to think about anything!" Sima Ji raised his glass again and said, "But I feel uncomfortable when I drink, and I get a stomachache when I feel uncomfortable!"
"I didn't expect that Mr. Sima is the same as me. He feels uncomfortable when he drinks." Shangguan Liang laughed "haha" and said, "It's okay. Keep drinking and you won't feel sad!"
Just as Murong Fei was dancing his sword exquisitely, Shangguan Liang frequently turned to the left and raised the jade jue towards Shangguan Yu. Unexpectedly, Shangguan Yu ignored him and turned a blind eye, looking full of relief. Shangguan Liang was full of sullenness and cursed secretly: "My nephew who is a plague is really hard to figure out!"
Murong Fei raised his sword and danced wildly, sometimes approaching Shangguan Liang, sometimes approaching Shangguan Yu. While Murong Fei was dancing with his sword, he stared at Shangguan Yu closely, his eyes telling Shangguan Yu to make up his mind quickly and implement the set plan. However, Shangguan Yu still turned a blind eye as if possessed by an evil spirit. Murong Fei was secretly angry in his heart: "I don't care whether you can make up your mind or not, just let me kill this thief Sima Ji with one sword!"
Just as Murong Fei was once again pointing his sword at Sima Ji's Er Qing, a beam of sword light came over at lightning speed, and with a "clang" sound, the Long You Sword was released from Murong Fei's hand.
Shangguan Yu suddenly raised his sword. He shouted loudly: "Who is coming?" Xuanyuan Sword had gathered strength in Shangguan Yu's hands.
"I am Lord Sima's attendant, with a single surname of 'Ying' and a double name of 'Zhixiong'. Today I swear to live and die with Lord Sima!" Ying Zhixiong looked at Shangguan Yu angrily as he spoke. His eyes were obviously filled with murderous intent.
Murong Fei was startled secretly: "What a fast sword! No wonder Sima Ji went to the banquet so calmly and calmly. It turns out that he really brought his entourage with him!"
"Ha, ha, ha!" Shangguan Yu suddenly laughed three times. He turned to Murong Fei and angrily scolded: "Black Hand, why don't you retreat quickly?" Shangguan Yu then ordered: "Hurry up and give wine to the strong man!"
Ying Zhixiong thought to himself: "The person who just held the sword to kill the lord was actually this black hand!" He heard Shangguan Yu reprimand the black hand and ordered someone to give him wine. Then he put away his anger and held his sword towards the black hand. Murong Fei saluted.
The black-handed Murong Fei held his sword in his hand and bowed his hand to Ying Zhixiong, then retreated.
"Thank you Mr. Shangguan for the wine!" Ying Zhixiong took the wine and drank it in one gulp.
Shangguan Yu clapped his hands and praised Ying Xiong when he saw his extraordinary courage and generous drinking capacity. He suddenly laughed "haha" again and said: "Hurry up and give meat to the strong man!"
Ying Zhixiong sat cross-legged in the middle of the Hongmen Hall. With a "clang" sound, he pulled out his sword and cut the pig's leg on the shield. He actually acted as if no one else was watching, cutting and cutting crisply while eating, and eating generously.
Shangguan Liang, Si Jingang, Si Dharma Protector and others were all dumbfounded. Shangguankan sighed secretly: "This hero Shinsuke is a big foodie!"
Shangguan Yu admired Ying Zhixiong greatly and asked loudly: "What a strong man! Can you drink another jar?"
Ying Zhixiong wiped the corners of his mouth and responded loudly: "For a person who is not even afraid of death, what does wine mean?"
"You really have the guts. I've made a promise to you, brother, before I serve you the wine!" Shangguan Yu ordered. When Shangguan Yu saw Ying Zhixiong raising the wine jar, he said, "Gulu, Gulu!" He drank heavily and thought to himself, "Isn't he afraid that I will put poison in the wine?"
While the hero was eating meat and drinking wine, he was making long and impassioned speeches. He analyzed the current world situation and denounced Shangguan Yu for listening to greedy words and almost accidentally killing a meritorious person. It can be said that Shangguan Yu was speechless and extremely embarrassed.
Sima Ji secretly thought: "If I don't leave now, when will I wait?" He then bowed his hands to Shangguan Liang, burped again, and then shook his body, pretending that he had a stomachache and was about to get sick. In the toilet, he quietly slipped out of Shangguan Mansion without saying goodbye to Shangguan Yu, Shangguan Liang and others.
Sima Ji then ran along the path for five or six miles, and with the support of the Zhenhan Army, he returned to the Zhenhan Prince's Mansion. He was thinking as he ran, puzzled: "Which good play are Shangguan Yu and Shangguan Liang acting in?"
The banquet came to an end, and Shangguan Liang, Si Jingang, Si Protector, Shangguan Yu and others did not see Sima Ji again. Shangguan Zhen, the leader of the Four Guardians, whispered to Shangguan Yu: "Master Shangguan, Sima Ji left without saying goodbye. He must have escaped. Do you want to send someone to find him?"
Shangguan Yu smiled faintly at Shangguan Zhen and waved his hand. Shangguan Zhen felt very impatient and sighed inwardly: "Young master's thoughts are really something that people will never understand!"
Shangguan Yu no longer paid attention to Sima Ji taking the opportunity to escape, and his respect for Sima Ji deepened in his heart.
Shangguan Liang did not ask Shangguan Yu why he did not kill Sima Ji as originally planned, because he knew his nephew's personality and way of doing things too well.
