On the twelfth day of the first month, Liu Jun's wedding period is about to arrive, and the entire prefecture pastoral mansion is full of lights and bustle.

In the reception hall of the state pastoral office, high friends were full of guests, talking and laughing.

The envoys sent by the major princes have all arrived, and Jingzhou Mu Liu Jun has set up a banquet here today to give a grand reception.

The dishes are all the signature dishes of the north and south, and the wine is naturally the fragrance that is popular throughout the Han, so this level is higher than the royal banquet in the eyes of everyone, and many people feel that it is very face-saving to be able to participate in such a banquet. At the same time, I am deeply grateful to Liu Jun, because this reflects Jingzhou Mu's respect for them!

The envoys sent by Liu Bei of Jiangxia were Zhuge Liang and Jian Yong, Jiangdong Sun Quan sent Zhuge Jin and Lu Su, Zhang Lu of Hanzhong sent Yan Pu and Zhang Wei, Yizhou Liu Zhang sent Zhang Song, Western Liang Hansui sent Yan Xing and Cheng Gongying, Yongzhou Ma Teng sent Ma Chao and Jiang Yan, and Northern Cao Cao represented the emperor, and its formation was the largest, sending Hua Xin, Man Cong, and Chen Lin.

In the prefecture pastoral mansion, Pang Tong and Ma Liang were responsible for receiving all the people, and Wang Xuan was responsible for recording the congratulatory gifts of the princes. Wang Xuan had also surrendered to Cao Cao, but Yu Ban was in a hurry to evacuate Xiangyang, and instead of withdrawing, Ma Liang appointed him Cao Shan of Taishou Mansion.

Although Liu Wei occupied the seven counties of Jingzhou, his talents were still very lacking, and officials from various places could not return to Xiangyang for the time being, because Sun Quan of Jiangdong and Liu Bei of Jiangxia had always been eyeing Jingzhou.

Wei Yan and Huang Zhong were not idle after returning to Xiangyang, and between Xiangyang and Fancheng, Liu Jun set up two large camps, allowing each to recruit and train 30,000 to 40,000 soldiers.

Now the source of troops around Xiangyang is not a problem, with food and grass, it can naturally attract the surrounding displaced people, plus after the Battle of Chibi, there are some stragglers everywhere, so Wei Yan and Huang Zhong have no time to be in Xiangyang City.

Among those who came were scribes and generals, but whoever it was, in this era, liked wine, and Wanlixiang was a symbol of status, so they all drank freely, including Zhuge Liang.

Liu Jun is also generous, and today's wine is almost unlimited in supply.

"The state shepherd has arrived!" Suddenly, a soldier shouted, and the hall suddenly fell silent.

Soon, Liu Li appeared at the door of the hall, and saw him dressed in an official uniform, with a high air, a smile, not angry and self-threatening, and his eyes swept over everyone in the hall.

At the same time, everyone in the hall began to look Liu Jun up and down.

Young, handsome, and all over the body exude a kind of momentum, although very kind, but give people a kind of coercion, is this the kind of kingly atmosphere?

Looking at Liu Jun's eyes, some people involuntarily lowered their heads.

"See the state shepherd!" After a moment, everyone reacted and saluted almost at the same time.

"Messengers, excuse me!" Liu Jian also bowed his hand to everyone, "All of you have come from thousands of miles to participate in the wedding of the Honzhou Mu!" I am deeply grateful, and I have prepared a little light wine today to wash the dust for you to catch the wind, and everyone can drink freely!

"Thank you, Lord Shepherd!"

Liu Jun arrived at the main throne accompanied by two soldiers, Pang Tong and Ma Liang sat on either side, Wang Jian was at the bottom, and all the envoys also sat down.

"Congratulations to Lord State Shepherd." Hua Xin came out and bowed to Liu Jun.

"Mr. Ziyu, I don't know where the joy comes from?"

Hua Xin's name is known to everyone here. When he was in Youzhou, the world liked to refer to him as a dragon along with Guan Ning and Bing Yuan. He was honest and honest, and was promoted to filial piety in his early years, once served as Shang Shulang, and after Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, Hua Xin resigned from the government and went south to Nanyang and Yangzhou.

"I have come to read the oracle on the orders of Your Majesty!" After Hua Xin finished speaking, he took out an edict from his arms, "Imperial uncle Liu Biaomu has been guarding Jingzhou for many years, and his merit is in the society and the benefit of the people, but unfortunately he died of illness, and he regretted it very much, his son Liu Jun, who was young and promising, is now named the general of Jingzhou Mu and Zhennan, Kaifu, and false festival!" "

In fact, Liu Jun has already inherited the Jingzhou Mu and has already appointed officials in Kaifu, but this divine decree is also very useful, which can make Liu Jun's status more legitimate.

"Thank you, Your Majesty Longen!" Liu Jun asked the soldiers to take over the holy decree.

Seeing that Liu Jun did not kneel, Hua Xin's face was a little ugly, obviously dissatisfied in his heart. Some of the envoys also thought that Liu Wei was too arrogant. Although the Han dynasty has declined, the emperor represents the supreme ruler after all.

Where did they understand that even if the true emperor was in front of him, Liu Wei would not bow down, let alone this holy decree?

"Congratulations Lord!" Pang Tong and Ma Liang congratulated Liu Jun at the same time.

"Mr. Ziyu, is this His Majesty's oracle? Or does Cao Cao mean? Suddenly Zhuge Liang stood up, gently shook the feather fan, and asked slowly.

Although it is still winter, shaking the feather fan may have become Zhuge Liang's habit.

"Who are you?" How dare to say such a nonsense! Hua Xin was furious when he heard this, he didn't know Zhuge Liang.

"Under Zhuge Liang, Uncle Liu's military master!"

"It turned out to be that eloquent Zhuge Kongming!" Hua Xin smiled, "This is stamped with the holy will of the jade seal, how can it be false?" Questioning the divine will is a sin of deception! "

Ha..." Zhuge Liang laughed a few times after listening to Hua Xin's words, "Cao Cao coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and everyone knows that now His Majesty's holy will can't come out of Xuchang's palace at all."

"You... You are slandering the Prime Minister! Hua Xin was furious.

"Mr. Ziyu has a high character, when Dong Zhuo entered Beijing and controlled the dynasty, Mr. was ashamed to work with him and left Luoyang, which made me admire it very much, but I didn't expect that now he would be under Cao Cao's command!" Cao Cao's name is Han Xiang, but he is actually a Han thief, what is the difference between him and that Dong Zhuo?

"It's really a clever eloquent!" Hua Xin was actually very indifferent to fame and fortune, but calmed down at this time, "Yuan Shu of Huainan is called emperor, Yuan Shao of Hebei is engraved with seals, the princes of various places are divided, the dynasty is delayed, the imperial power is out of control, it is the prime minister who crossed the horse and fought in the south and the north for several years." Only by destroying Yuan Shu, defeating Yuan Shao, capturing Lü Bu, and moving the capital to Xuchang did Han Zuo not lose. If there is no prime minister in the world, I wonder what will become of it? The merits of the Prime Minister are not something you and I can comment?

"Then may I ask Mr. Ziyu, since Cao Cao is so wise, why doesn't he know that the order of growing up is the way of the usual?"

"So it is!" Liu Liang sneered in his heart, the reason why Zhuge Liang was embarrassed by Huaxin was that he was here!

"What do you mean by that?" Hua Xin was a little puzzled, Zhuge Liang said so much, is it just to distinguish an orderly elder?

"The second prince has a good command of the army, and he is a general of Feng Zhennan, which is well deserved, but this position of Jingzhou pastor should be passed on to the eldest prince Liu Qi. The eldest prince Lixian Corporal has quite his father's style, whether it is a li chang or a li xian, he should be the eldest prince. Waste the long and young, but the way to chaos! After

Zhuge Liang's words, everyone in the hall suddenly realized, they remembered that the eldest prince Liu Qi was still there, according to this statement, wouldn't these two brothers want to...

One after another, the surprised eyes were turned to Zhuge Liang and Liu Jun.
