Chapter 107 The Grand Banquet of the Governor of Yizhou (Part 2)
. As soon as Zhang Chi arrived, the governor of Yizhou had already greeted him with a smile on his face: "The young master is here, and the glory is shining, and the glory is shining."
Although the governor of Yizhou smiled nicely on the surface, Zhang Chi knew that these people in the officialdom changed their faces faster than reading books. Maybe they would call you brothers and brothers a second ago, but they would be able to stab you in the back in the next moment. This is politics.
Zhang Chi has always been reluctant to come into contact with politics because of this reason. There are too many false thoughts and too many relationships. The most filling pit in ancient times is politics and the officialdom. Walking in the middle, you must be cautious step by step. Looking at history, I don’t know how many talented heroes, beautiful women and beautiful women have fallen into this pit and never left their bones.
Zhang Chi also said modestly and was invited to the back hall by the governor of Yizhou.
While greeting Zhang Chi and Luo An, the governor of Yizhou looked at the dark blade that had been following Zhang Chi. The dark blade covered his face and was holding a sword in his hand. The governor of Yizhou stroked his goatee and asked with a smile: "Young master, who is this person? Why is he still wearing a veil?"
"This is my personal bodyguard. As for the veil," Zhang Chi pondered for a moment: "She is ugly and afraid of scaring others, so she covers the veil on her face all year round."
Dark Blade glared at Zhang Chi fiercely, and didn't say anything.
The governor of Yizhou smiled a little strangely and said, "My mansion is very cautious. Is it not safe to come to my mansion and still need the guards to accompany him? The man is really cautious."
It is because I am worried about coming to your house, Zhang Chixin said.
Of course, the governor of Yizhou was mocking, and Zhang Chi didn't care. He replied lightly: "The personal guards have always been with them. The governor is too concerned."
Zhang Chi smiled, and the governor of Yizhou also smiled. The two of them went back and forth in a word, and they broke up with each other. After two or three sentences, they arrived at the door of the back hall. The governor of Liangzhou made a gesture and said with a smile: "Young Master, please!"
As soon as Zhang Chi entered the back hall, he felt very open. There were only a few people having a banquet, but there were dozens of women who arranged to serve.
The governor of Yizhou had already ordered people to set up three wine cases. Zhang Chi, Luo An and the governor of Yizhou were in the seat respectively. The governor of Yizhou sat in the main seat, and Zhang Chi and Luo An sat on both sides, and the dark blade stood quietly behind Zhang Chi.
There were delicious foods in the case, and two beautifully dressed women were kneeling beside each of the cases, pouring wine and picking up food. After a closer look, they all had some beauty.
It is said that the landlord Laocai has a luxurious life, but compared with the enjoyment of the gentry in this era, the landlord Laocai is really too simple.
Zhang Chi was still thinking that the governor of Yizhou had raised his glass and said, "Young Master is here, I wish you a cup. This Sichuan is not only beautiful, but also has a sweet and mellow wine. This first glass of wine is to welcome the young master. Please drink this cup full of wine."
During the Jin Dynasty, the gentry were all proud of drinking. Fortunately, Zhang Chi had a great alcohol tolerance, so he was not afraid of drinking. The maid next to him had already filled Zhang Chi with wine. Zhang Chi was not polite, so he raised his glass and toasted the governor of Yizhou, and then drank it all in one go.
As soon as he put down the wine glass, the maid had already filled it again. The governor of Yizhou said: "Today, the young master's words in front of the King's Palace in Chengdu are thought-provoking and loud. For the sake of his extraordinary courage, I would like to respect him another cup."
Zhang Chi drank another cup, and before he could speak to the governor of Yizhou, Zhang Chi said first: "The governor is warm and hospitable, so the students borrow flowers to offer Buddha and give it back to the adults."
Luo An originally wanted to hear how Zhang Chi persuaded the governor of Yizhou to send troops, but he did not expect that after these two people entered the table, you respect me and I respect you, but in the blink of an eye, he drank seven or eight cups, but he did not mention any words about sending troops to fight against Hu.
It would be fine if the governor of Yizhou was not mentioned, but why did Mr. Zhang not mention it? Luo An couldn't help but feel that the governor of Yizhou was happily drinking now, which was a great time to talk about the serious business, so he said to him: "Sir, look at the matter of sending troops to fight against Hu..."
Unexpectedly, before Luo An finished speaking, the governor of Yizhou interrupted him: "Mr. Luo, today I am a family banquet for you, and I only talk about the wind and moon. Don't let these mundane affairs disturb our drinking fun."
"That's right," even Zhang Chi said: "It's rare that the governor is hospitality, we should have fun today. Lord Governor, let's have another drink."
The governor of Yizhou was originally self-controlled and wanted to drink Zhang Chi more first, so he drank first and did not eat vegetables. Unexpectedly, after seven or eight glasses of wine, Zhang Chi still remained calm. Instead, he felt a little dizzy.
Seeing Zhang Chi lifting the cup again, the governor of Yizhou felt a little unbearable, so he shook his hand repeatedly and said, "Young Master is a huge amount of money, which is admirable. I can't bear to drink, but I have prepared for it. You see, these women serving and pouring wine are all beauties I have chosen. With such beauties, you will definitely enjoy the fun."
"Oh?" Zhang Chi became interested.
A woman had already walked up, knelt in front of Zhang Chi's desk, and said with wine: "Young master is young and romantic, and I really admire you. I wonder if you are willing to give me a favor. Have you drunk this cup?"
Zhang Chi laughed: "Okay, OK."
Zhang Chi is addicted to alcohol as if he is alive. Of course, there is a beautiful woman who advises him to drink until he drinks.
The dozens of women in the back hall were toasted Zhang Chi in front of them, and Zhang Chi came without hesitation, but in a blink of an eye, he had already eaten dozens of cups.
The governor of Yizhou originally wanted to make Zhang Chi faint and ask about his origin, but he did not expect that Zhang Chi's stomach was like a bottomless pit, and he poured in a lot of wine and did not change his face. Instead, the more he drank, the more he became, the more energetic he became.
He didn't know that Zhang Chi was a drunkard before traveling through time. He could drink more than two pounds of 58 degrees of white wine. The brewing technology in ancient times was of course amazing before traveling through time. Before Zhang Chi, water and wine were of no degree, and it was harder to intoxicate than beer in Zhang Chi's eyes.
Seeing Zhang Chi drinking dozens of glasses of wine, the governor of Yizhou felt that it was almost done and asked, "I think the young master is so majestic and extremely unparalleled. I wonder which famous family comes from?"
In fact, this is the focus of the concern of the governor of Yizhou.
Zhang Chi smiled but refused to answer, but instead made the governor of Yizhou guess himself: "What is the origin of me, do you think I am?"
The governor of Yizhou thought about it and thought that if he could get the King of Chengdu so relied on, then the origin of this young master must be unusual. He asked tentatively: "What is the relationship between the prince and the Huan clan of Jingzhou?"
If the power of the King of Chengdu can be shocked, the Huan family in Jingzhou must be one of them. Although Zhang Chi's surname is Zhang, these wealthy and prominent families have many relatives, and it is not necessarily that the people in the Huan family have the surname Huan.
Zhang Chi smiled and shook her head.
Seeing Zhang Chi shook her head, the governor of Yizhou was somewhat regretful. In fact, he really hoped that Zhang Chi was a member of the Huan family. Now that Huan Xuan is entrenched in Jingzhou, he actually hopes that he can get a backer like Huan Xuan.
"Is it the Taiyuan Wang clan?" Now Wang Gong, the Taiyuan Wang clan, is a force that cannot be underestimated.
However, Zhang Chi still shook her head.
The governor of Yizhou brought out several major warlords in the world now, but Zhang Chi kept shaking his head.
Since the young master in front of him is not the most famous family in the world, perhaps some down-and-out family members, the governor of Yizhou twisted his goatee, smiled, and said in one breath: "Is it the Wang family of Langya? Chen Jun and Xie family? Or the Yu family of Yingchuan?"
Unexpectedly, Zhang Chi shook his head one by one: "None of them are."
Now the governor of Yizhou became confused: "Young Master, don't make things difficult for me anymore. Since these are not all, where is the person you are?"
Zhang Chi smiled and replied truthfully: "What the governor is talking about is a famous family, and he is just a poor family and a scholar, that's all."
The governor of Yizhou didn't believe it: "That's true?"
Zhang Chi nodded affirmatively: "That's all."
Seeing that Zhang Chi didn't seem to be telling lies, the governor of Yizhou suddenly made a big turn of 180 degrees, and threw the cup and said, "Come on, take down the thief in front of me."
As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of soldiers rushed in from outside the door, holding swords and evidently they had already prepared to ambush outside the door, surrounding the hall with several people in the middle.
Luo An was shocked when he saw this scene and hurriedly said, "Sir, why is this?"
"Why?" said the governor of Yizhou coldly: "This thief deceived the King of Chengdu. Today, he killed the imperial court and ordered officials to discuss Cao's activities. I will capture and kill him now!"
"Misunderstanding, this is a misunderstanding," Luo An quickly tried to smooth things over: "Young Master Zhang is a distinguished guest invited by the King of Chengdu. How can the governor add up the weapons?"
However, Zhang Chi always smiled and looked confident. The governor of Yizhou wanted to know what Zhang Chi relied on and said, "I'm afraid the King of Chengdu was also blinded by this person. I will remove this person first today, and then naturally report the truth to the King of Chengdu."
Although the King of Chengdu is the nominal lord of Shu, many things are constrained. If the governor of Yizhou said that he would kill Zhang Chi and then report it, he would not be unable to do such a thing. In fact, even if he really did this, the King of Chengdu could not do anything to him.
"If you want to kill me, you have to ask my bodyguard whether he agrees." Zhang Chi was still calm.
The governor of Yizhou then remembered that there was a masked woman behind Zhang Chi. After hearing Zhang Chi's words, he couldn't help but look at her.
Since entering the governor's mansion, Dark Blade has never said a word. Now he has said the first sentence, which is still the cold tone she used, and said coldly: "You are within ten steps of me, and I will take your life, which is as easy as a hand."
When the soldiers who had just rushed in heard the dark blade's breath, they actually regarded them as nothing. Just as they were about to step forward, Zhang Chi slowly picked up the wine glass, took a sip of the wine, and said with a smile: "Sir, if you don't believe it, you can try it. Is it whether you die first or I die first?"
The governor of Yizhou really doesn't know what to do now. No matter whether what Zhang Chi said is true or false, he dared not take a risk. He stared at Zhang Chi for a long time.
