Chapter 1485 Wei Wenchang''s decision


    In the past few days, Wei Yan was too idle to sit still. Langzhong hadn''t belonged yet, Zhao Wei, an old fox, would give him food and grass, so it would be difficult to continue westward, so he could only stay here for the time being, and went to the mountains to hunt when he was bored.


    On this day, Wei Yan had just returned to Daying, but saw Zhao Wei''s nephew deliberately went outside the city. When he saw Wei Yan, he smiled all over his face, and said cheerfully: "General Wei! But let me wait!"


    "Hehe, since you''re here, why don''t you eat some wild game together?" Wei Yan gestured to the hares and pheasants he had brought, "It just so happens that someone can hunt some..."


    "Haha, I wanted to bother you, but a certain general held a banquet in the city, and I invite General Wei to honor him..."


    "A banquet?" Wei Yan asked, "Why?"


    "Happy event!" Zhao Wei''s nephew also sold a pass, "General Wei will naturally know when he met a certain general."


    Wei Yan pondered for a moment, and said: "Okay! I''ll come after I arrange the military affairs first!"


    Zhao Wei''s nephew naturally agreed.


    Du Hu, who came with Wei Yan, was a little worried. He glanced at Zhao Wei''s nephew who was waiting outside the camp and said, "General Wei, what kind of banquet is this suddenly... Is there any problem? It''s like you Han people." What door are you talking about?"


    "Hey! You know a lot!" Wei Yan laughed loudly, as if he didn''t care about his own safety at all, "Who cares about him! If Zhao Wei really had the guts, he would have done it long ago! Why bother with a Hongmen banquet?" Wouldn’t it be more guilty if I waited in fear? Don’t forget, I am Wei Wenchang under Zheng Xi’s command now!”


    Du Hu followed Wei Yan, and watched Wei Yan break through all the way, even like that stick, messing up the balance of power in the entire Sichuan and Shu, maybe there is also an element of luck, but Wei Yan himself has a good understanding of fighters. Sensitivity also played a very important role in it. Seeing what Wei Yan said, Du Hu pondered for a while, and it seemed that there was some truth in it...


    "I''m going to the banquet, and you''ll have to watch more in the camp," Wei Yan said boldly, but he didn''t seem to be too relaxed. What should be paid attention to is still not relaxed at all. Let people release forty miles, and there will be a report every two hours, and if there is an emergency, just beat the drum and blow the horn, and someone will know!"


    Du Hu glanced at Wei Yan, also laughed and said: "I thought..."


    "What do you think?" Wei Yan put his feet on the table, then took a dagger and stuck it in the middle of his combat boots, twisted it twice, then raised the saber, and said, "I don''t know if Mr. Xu took Langzhong... If Langzhong has not fallen, it is still a hidden danger, and we should take precautions to some extent..."


    "The general, you..."


    "I''m fine. As long as Zhao Wei is not insane, he won''t attack me." Wei Yan scratched his head. Although he said it very confidently, but this kind of thing, not everyone can live a rational life. In case Zhao Wei Impulsive and stupid for a while?


    "I''ll bring forty armored guards there, in case something really happens..." Wei Yan pondered for a moment, then said hesitantly, "As long as Zhao Wei doesn''t leave within five steps, unless he wants to burn everything..."


    Wei Yan left the camp with his guards, got up and went to Guanghan City. Zhao Wei''s nephew also sent people to wait at the gate of the city early. When he saw Wei Yan''s flag, he rushed out immediately, led Wei Yan into the city himself, and then threw flattery words all the way without money...


    "General Wei is such a promising young man, his future is boundless, please take care of him in the future..."


    "General Wei is unparalleled in martial arts, and he must be a leader under Zhengxi''s command..."


    "General Wei..."


    Wei Yan laughed and squinted his eyes, as if he was enjoying himself, but his eyes did not relax at all. In Guanghan City, the layout of the city defense, the look of soldiers, the storefronts in the city, etc. were all in his eyes and remembered in his heart.


    From entering the city to now, it seems that there should be no major problems. The soldiers in Guanghan City are relatively relaxed, and they do not show a tense or defensive posture. This is good news for Wei Yan. Of course, if these soldiers are all at the movie king level, or if Zhao Wei just has some arrangements in the government office, then sometimes it is a different matter.


    Following Zhao Wei''s nephew all the way to the center of the city, Wei Yan saw Zhao Wei up close for the first time. Zhao Wei looked to be in his forties, and his figure was also very strong. He seemed to be half a head taller than the average people from Sichuan and Shu, but a little shorter than Wei Yan. When he saw Wei Yan, he laughed loudly and spoke very loudly. It is Hong Liang, giving people a very heroic feeling, but the eyes are always a little wandering, so in fact Zhao Wei''s inner character may not be as it appears on the outside.


    Of course, this may also be caused by some preconceived notions in Wei Yan''s mind.


    "I have seen General Zhao..." Wei Yan took two steps forward, shortened the distance between Zhao Wei and bowed his hands in salute. No matter what, at least we are all allies now, and we may still be ministers of the same court in the future. This due etiquette is still required.


    Zhao Wei laughed, clapped his hands up, and said in a loud voice: "It''s time to entertain General Wei long ago, but the mundane affairs are indeed onerous... If I have free time today, I will be making an apology to General Wei!"


    Wei Yan also laughed twice, but his heart moved slightly. This Zhao Wei didn''t mention General Zhengxi at all, what do you mean?


    A few days ago Zhang Song arrived in Guanghan, and then said that he would go to peace talks with General Zhengxi, and the two stopped. At that time, Zhao Wei''s attitude was a little ambiguous, is there any new change now? Although Wei Yan had already made some psychological preparations, when he heard what Zhao Wei said, he still had some doubts and speculations. However, judging from the current situation, Zhao Wei may not necessarily want to turn against General Zhengxi. After all, Zhao Wei’s family is in Brazil County.


    Wei Yan smiled and said: "General Zhao has been in Sichuan and Sichuan for a long time, and he is a veteran who has fought for many years. Wei is just a mere general. It is an honor to be invited by General Zhao. How can it be so blameless... Zhao If the general says this, doesn''t it mean that the subordinates will fail?"


    Zhao Wei''s smile froze slightly, and then he still calmly invited Wei Yan in.


    Entering the lobby, Wei Yan couldn''t help but pause.


    Zhao Wei smiled slightly, and stretched out his hand to invite, "General Wei, is there something wrong?"


    Wei Yan took a look inside the lobby.


    Zhao Wei seemed to have just realized it, and said with a smile: "Aha, I forgot to introduce...Come here, so that General Wei can know that this is Wu Zhonglang''s servant, Wu Yi and Wu Ziyuan..."


    Wu Yi?


    Wei Yan frowned slightly.


    Congzi, in the Han Dynasty, basically represented the status of adopting a godson, or a nephew within the family. If there is no heir, then Congzi can also inherit the family name and so on. Wu Yi is such a person Condition. Wu Yi''s uncle, Wu Kuang, has no children, so Wu Yi is the successor of the next generation of the Wu family.


    Wu Kuang, this person can also be regarded as a member of the imperial court during the period of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty. Back then, he was the direct subordinate of General He Jin. During the chaos when Yuan Shao and Cao Cao killed the eunuchs, Wu Kuang not only killed many eunuchs, but also beheaded the general’s brother He Miao. One of those names...


    Although it is said that He Miao played a disgraceful role in the death of He Jin, for Wu Kuang, it actually meant a little bit of restraint, so Wu Kuang did not get any benefits in the subsequent spoils conference. During the chaos in Guanzhong, a large group of Wu Kuang''s family took refuge in Sichuan and Shu, and established a relationship with Liu Yan, the then lord of Sichuan and Shu, and even married Wu Yi''s younger sister to Liu Yan''s son Liu Mao.


    Well, that''s right, it was Liu Mao who died early.


    So from this perspective, Wu Yi can also be regarded as Liu Zhang''s half-relative status...


    Sitting on the mat, Wu Yi half stood up arrogantly, cupped his hands, and he had seen Wei Yan. For most people, Wei Yan is just a nouveau riche who rose from the army, and has no family background, not even a poor family. A family of officials and eunuchs like the Wu family naturally has reasons to be proud.


    Wei Yan chuckled, ignored Wu Yi''s attitude, but glanced at the seat, then turned to Zhao Wei and said, "General Zhao, is this a wrong arrangement?"


    Zhao Wei put on an innocent face and said, "What''s wrong? What''s the problem?"


    In the lobby, there are three seats, one seat at the top, and one seat at the left and right, in the form of finished characters. Zhao Wei is the master, and he sits in the chair. There is no problem with this, but there is a difference between the left and the right.


    The Han people are on the right, they have a taste for words, and they are unmatched. They stand on the left side of the road, one expresses praise, and the other expresses humility. The left is respected, which lasted until the Song Dynasty. In the Yuan Dynasty, the Mongolian Hu people had to overthrow the previous habit and changed it to respect the right. After Zhu Yuanzhang defeated the Yuan Dynasty in the Ming Dynasty, he changed it to respect the left again. …


    So here, Wu Yi took the right seat, and Zhao Wei naturally wanted to take the main seat, so the vacant seat was given to Wei Yan, which clearly put him under Wu Yi. Perhaps for Wei Yan personally, it doesn''t matter where he sits under normal circumstances, but for the current situation, where he sits has different meanings.


    If Wei Yan does not argue at this moment, or just sits down in a daze, it is tantamount to acknowledging Zhao Wei''s position as the master of Sichuan and Shu Brazil, and admitting that Wu Yi and other Sichuan and Shu gentry are higher than Wei Yan, an outsider. This may not change anything substantially The situation on the battlefield can affect the attitude of the Sichuan and Shu gentry, and it can even be regarded as a temptation.


    Wei Yan raised his eyebrows, and although he said with a smile, his words were not polite: "General Zhao, it is a great thing for you to abandon the dark and turn to the bright this time, to return to the banner of General Han Zhengxi, and return to the banner of the Great Han Zhengxi... He is a minister of the same hall, General Zhao is old and lives in Guanghan, so he should be seated at the head... but the seats on the left and right...hehe, it is better to ask this person to change his position, so as not to hurt the friendship..."


    Wu Yi suddenly went crazy, he jumped up, and shouted angrily: "Nonsense! You are just a warrior, and you dare to let someone be the first! How dare you! Could it be that under the conquest of the West, everyone is arrogant and rude? yeah?"


    Wei Yan sneered: "The Great Han General Zhengxi was appointed by His Majesty himself! Hold the Emperor''s Sword! Hold the festival! You can kill false ministers and plot rebellion! You actually speak rudely to General Zhengxi, could it be that you can''t do it if you want to rebel!"


    "Zhuzi is rude!" Wu Yi was furious, grabbed the long sword on the mat, drew it out of its sheath, and pointed it at Wei Yan, "You dare to speak evil words and slander Yu X! Is it not good to bully X?! "


    Zhao Wei hurriedly waved his hands, but he was firmly nailed to the ground, and he didn''t intend to get involved in the circle of Wei Yan and Wu Yi''s struggle at all, "Oh, it can''t be like this, it can''t be like this... If you have something to say, just say it..."


    Seeing Zhao Wei''s attitude, Wei Yan was stunned.


    I see…


    Wei Yan shouted at Wu Yi in a deep voice: "Put away your weapons! Otherwise, don''t blame me for being rude!"


    Wu Yi ignored Zhao Wei''s helpless persuasion, raised his long sword, pointed it at Wei Yan, walked away from the table, walked slowly towards Wei Yan, and shouted loudly: "I am an official in the court!" At that time, I don’t know where your people are! How innocent are the people of Sichuan and Shu, who were slaughtered by fire and fire! Let me see what kind of murderers are under the Western Conquest!"


    Wei Yan glanced at Zhao Wei, and saw that Zhao Wei was still standing in the distance, and the guards and servants in the hall were all standing there like dumb geese, as if they didn''t see everything in front of them.


    Wei Yan''s mind was spinning rapidly, and within a moment, Wu Yi was two steps in front of him. Wei Yan narrowed his eyes, and instead of looking at the tip of Wu Yi''s long sword, he stared firmly at Wu Yi''s shoulder holding the sword, his feet also remained motionless, standing where he was. It''s not that Wei Yan was scared stupid, but that Wei Yan dared to hack Wu Yi to death if he didn''t believe Wu Yi.


    Moreover, Wei Yan is also very confident in his own skills, and he is sure that if Wu Yi really wants to stab and slash, he will also make a forceful movement, so he only needs to see that when Wu Yi''s shoulder is pulled back forcefully, it is not necessary to dodge the counterattack. Late.


    Sure enough, Wu Yi just put on a show. When he came to Wei Yan, seeing Wei Yan didn''t move, Wu Yi thought Wei Yan was timid, so he stopped his steps, and when he was about to scold Wei Yan, he kept his hands down and didn''t make any movement. But Wei Yan suddenly made a move!


    Wei Yan suddenly stomped, twisted his body, let the edge of Wu Yi''s long sword go, and then moved his hands together to put Wu Yi''s long sword in his palms, and then twisted suddenly, the large rotation and pulling immediately let Wu Yi Yi was caught off guard, he couldn''t hold the long sword with one hand, he loosened his five fingers, and the long sword fell out of his hand!


    Wei Yan hesitantly took advantage of the momentum to fit in and ran into Wu Yi''s arms. His shoulder hit Wu Yi''s chest, causing Wu Yi to be unsteady, staggered backwards, and fell on the ground full of bean dishes. On the table with tableware such as bowls and chopsticks, the table suddenly collapsed with a click!


    Dim sum syrup splashed everywhere, and Wu Yi rolled into it, with his head crooked and his robe crooked, in a panic.


    Wei Yan threw the long sword back with a flick of his hand, and thrust it into Wu Yi''s neck, which was lying on the ground with a bang. Wu Yi''s face turned pale with fright, and the hairs on his neck stood on end...


    "Say it one last time!" Wei Yan faced Wu Yi, but glanced at Zhao Wei from the corner of his eyes, "Don''t play this kind of trick! How dare you show your ugliness in public with even a little skill!"
