In the stronghold, all the princes were having a banquet and drinking wine, but Cao Cao came to the pottery merchant at some unknown time and held him hostage with a short crossbow.
Over there, Yuan Shao was drunk and stupid. He glanced around with hazy eyes and saw Cao Cao and the pottery merchant hiding in the corner of the handsome tent, mumbling and not knowing what they were doing.
Yuan Shao burst into laughter with his face flushed, and shouted: "Mengde, what are you doing there? Why don't you come over and drink!"
The crossbow in Cao Cao's hand did not leave Tao Shang's waist at all, and he turned around with a smile and said: "I hit it off with Mr. Tao from Xuzhou, and we will be comrades on the southern front again from now on. I took advantage of the banquet today to get closer and closer. "
After hearing this, the potter wanted to whip him...
Yuan Shao's drunken eyes were blurred and he didn't see what was going on. He stood up unsteadily and kept saying drunkenly: "You are so close! You are so close! That is...a good thing! This is our first alliance! It's time...it's time to move around more. Today I will be with all of you...all the wise men as allies...and as companions! Mr. Yuan is so happy! So happy! Taking this opportunity of passion...let's...let's sing and dance! Shao starts first They are equal in size and equal in size!"
As the saying goes, Taoists’ leisure travel is the dance of literati!
Historically, the Han Dynasty was an extremely prosperous multi-ethnic country compared to other countries that developed during the same period. The Han Dynasty could be described as a powerful overlord in history.
During the banquets of the Han Dynasty, multiple cast bell dances were performed. The Han dance, with hair combed in a snail bun, wide sleeves lightly stretched, and knees bent, was very common in the palace, down to the princes and wealthy merchants.
When it comes to playing disco and getting drunk in the middle of the night, the Chinese are actually the first in the world.
Today, Yuan Shao invited all the princes to dance, and they did not refuse politely. They were all veterans, and no one had less experience than the other.
A bunch of old crooks!
When the words fell, the bell outside the tent was already ringing, and the music floated into the handsome tent. It was obvious that the band had been waiting for a long time, and it was just a moment for these princes to have fun!
Yuan Shao laughed heartily, took advantage of his drunkenness, and staggered to the open space in the middle of the handsome tent. He raised the wine cup with one hand and swung his body in the air with the other hand, dancing to the beat!
The potter couldn't help but tremble and bury his face in his hands.
Don't want to see it, it hurts my eyes.
Just dancing is not enough, Yuan Shao sings loudly while dancing:
"Fight in the south of the city and die in the north of Guo. If you die in the wild, you will not be buried but can be eaten."
Call me a cuckold: and be a distinguished guest!
If you die in the wild without burial, how can you escape with carrion?
The sound of water is surging, and the pampas grass is dark;
The owl cavalry died in battle, and the rogue horse wandered and screamed.
When building a house in Liang, why should it be south? Why should it be north?
If you don't get the grain and millet, how can you feed it? Is it possible for you to be a loyal minister?
Think of your son and his good ministers, and think of your good ministers sincerely:
Go out to attack in the morning and return home at dusk!"
When the princes gathered to fight against the national traitors, singing and dancing were not appropriate for the time, but Yuan Shao sang "Battle City South" by Han Yuefu. Its connotation is quite in line with the current mood. It is tragic and majestic, and inadvertently it can inspire everyone even more Determination to destroy Dong.
When the princes saw Yuan Shao playing the harp there, they couldn't hold it in any longer. They got up in twos and threes and joined Yuan Shao's dance troupe.
Some of the officials holding the border were holding wine bottles, some were holding wine cups, and some were simply gesturing with two roasted lamb legs with their hands, huffing and puffing, stretching their arms and moving to the sound of ancient music, and going crazy in the room. The twisting... the atmosphere was extremely high for a while!
The potter's eyes widened when he saw it...
This scene... looks like a group of crazy monsters trying to eat Tang Monk's flesh.
Yuan Shao danced profusely with sweat, every cell in his body was in a state of indulgence, and he did not forget to wink at Cao Cao while twisting!
Brother, come here and jump around to find some youth!
Tao Shang also saw Yuan Shao wink at Cao Cao, and whispered to Cao Cao: "General Cao, the leader of the alliance is calling you... There are many contestants in the Dance Forest Conference, how can we miss you, General... Why doesn't Mr. Cao get excited?"
Cao Cao snorted coldly, and regardless of whether the pottery merchant was happy or not, he actually dragged him into the dance floor.
The pottery merchant completely collapsed... what a sinner!
Cao Cao jumped and danced with the princes who had entered a half-mad state. While dancing, he said to Tao Shang: "Boy, don't even think about running away! Continue what you just said."
The pottery merchant was miserable... He did not fall in love with a beautiful woman who traveled through the late Han Dynasty, but instead had to have fun with a group of big men... It was too bad for a time traveler.
"General Cao is a heroic man who takes it as his duty to help the king and support the country. How can he be more serious than a weak young man like me? If it spreads, it will not make people laugh." The pottery merchant did not dance as wildly as other princes, but just stood up and down on tiptoe to show off.
…From a distance, they look no different than zombies.
While Cao Cao was dancing around the pottery merchant, he spread his arms and danced, and said with a sinister smile: "It is very unwise to pretend to be Cao Cao instead of Yuan Shao! Yuan Shao is much more powerful than Cao Cao... Who said this?"
"Which grandson is spreading rumors? What nonsense!" Tao Shang was filled with indignation: "Is Cao Cao so worthless!"
Cao Cao raised his eyebrows and said, "How much is Cao Cao worth?"
The pottery merchant thought about it very seriously and replied: "It must be worth a hundred and eighty thousand to say the least."
While speaking, he was adding in his mind: "Shit!"
Cao Cao narrowed his beady eyes and stared at the pottery merchant like a hungry wolf... as if he was trying to estimate whether he was worth the price.
After dancing for a while, Cao Cao suddenly grabbed the pottery merchant and walked towards the outside of the circle.
Yuan Shao and all the others in the arena were already at a climax.
Cao Cao shouted: "At this time, Cao and Mr. Tao were discussing the details of the Southern Allied Forces' advance. I have the right to withdraw!"
Yuan Shao was already in high spirits. He danced with Yuefu poems and sang one song after another. He wished he could sing all the famous "Eighteen Songs of Cymbals" of the Han Dynasty before he stopped.
Simply can not stop!
"Mengde will just leave!"
The pottery merchant wiped his sweat... Leader, are you taking drugs?
Behind him, the damn short crossbow was pressed against the potter's back again.
Xu Chu did not come because he was training the Xuzhou Tiger Guards. Today, the four Pei brothers came to guard Tao Shang.
Cao Cao held the pottery merchant with a crossbow and walked out of the tent. The Pei brothers felt something was wrong when they saw this, but they heard Cao Cao whisper behind the pottery merchant: "Go to Cao's camp."
"That's not necessary, right? General Cao, you'd be embarrassed to bother me so late..."
Cao Cao let out a laugh and swung the short crossbow from side to side, which made the pottery man feel a little flirtatious.
Grandson! I will make you eat this crossbow later!
Tao Shang sighed and said to the four Pei brothers: "Get your horses ready and follow me to General Cao's camp."
Pei only saw the two men's faces, but did not know what Cao Cao was doing behind the pottery merchant's back.
When they saw Cao Cao, they couldn't help but feel surprised. Isn't this the liar who was beaten up by Xu Chu on Suanzao Street that day? How could he come out of the stronghold of the princes?
The swindlers nowadays are so arrogant...have they even tricked them into the princes' camps?
Cao Cao chuckled and said, "Why are you preparing your horses? It's spring now, the wind is high and the air is refreshing. Let's just walk... Don't worry, I won't kill you from exhaustion."
Tao Shang had no choice but to say to Pei Qian: "Go back and tell General Xu... I will go to General Cao Cao's camp and go back later so that he doesn't worry about it."
As he spoke, he winked at Pei Qian.
After that, he said to the three brothers Pei Guang, Pei Jing, and Pei Ben: "Follow me on foot to General Cao's camp."
Pei Qian took the order and left, Tao Shang thought to himself, hoping that this boy understood what he meant... and also hoped that Xu Chu could understand the meaning of the message and come as soon as possible.
The three brothers of the Pei family and Cao Cao's bodyguard cleared the way, and the two princes walked towards the west one behind the other.
Under the "escort" of Cao Cao, the pottery merchant arrived at Cao's camp soon.
In front of Cao Ying's main tent, he saw a young woman with elegant clothes and outstanding grace standing at the entrance of the handsome tent, as if she had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing a crowd of people coming, the young woman smiled brightly at Cao Cao and whispered softly: "Amao, next time you have this happen, please send someone to spread the word earlier, so that I won't be ill-prepared and let the guests see the joke."
The potter was confused. What should he prepare for the guests?
Cao Cao ignored the woman and just whispered behind the pottery merchant: "Go in!"
Would you like to go in? Cao Gong’s tent is like a dragon’s pond and a tiger’s den…
"I have a stomachache. I must have eaten bad at the banquet just now. Where is the toilet?" The potter turned around and wanted to leave.
Cao Cao blocked the pottery merchant's circuit and said with a half-smile, "Go in."
Now the pottery merchant didn't have a stomachache, but a cold stomach... The cold and hard short crossbow pressed against his lower abdomen, forcing the pottery merchant to turn around helplessly and walked into the handsome tent.
Forget it, what is supposed to come will eventually come, just face it calmly.
I saw that the main table was not placed in the handsome tent, but two counter tables were placed on both sides. Various delicacies prepared with food cauldrons were placed on the two tables, all delicious and delicious!
The pottery merchant raised his eyebrows...what do you mean? Hongmen Banquet?
Cao Cao walked to the desk on one side and placed the crossbow on the desk, making a crisp "snap" sound.
Tao Shang secretly sighed, this time was really the most passive time since he returned from time travel... But his opponent was Cao Cao, he recognized it.
After the pottery merchant sat down opposite Cao Cao, the young woman just now walked into the handsome tent and poured wine for the two of them.
The pottery merchant glanced at the young woman and decided to ease the awkward atmosphere. He also gave Cao Cao a hand and turned the hostility into friendship.
"General Cao, who is this lady who looks like a fairy and is elegant and elegant? She looks like a lady from a famous family!"
The young woman couldn't help but be startled when she heard this, and then smiled and said happily: "I am a singer and a prostitute, and the words "lady from a famous family" are not appropriate."
Cao Cao said while eating the food: "Her name is Bian Yu'er, and she is my concubine."
The potter suddenly understood and bowed slightly to Bian Yu'er: "Hello, sister-in-law."
Later, I thought something was wrong. Although Bian would be Cao Cao's first wife in history, now she is just Cao Cao's concubine. It seemed inappropriate to call her sister-in-law.
"Hello, second sister-in-law."
Bian Yu'er covered her mouth and trembled with joy: "Master Tao is really funny. No wonder we, Ah Ma, have been thinking about you these past few days."
The potter was very curious: "What does General Cao miss about me?"
Bian Yu'er said with a smile: "Ah Man is talking about you. He has lived for more than thirty years since he was a child. This is the first time he has suffered so much at the hands of others. Not to mention being beaten, even his identity is fake. Already."
After hearing this, the pottery merchant couldn't help but feel numb. What kind of thinking is this... thinking about beating me? After her nagging, it seemed like he was drinking wine.
Cao Cao suddenly raised his wine cup and said loudly: "Master Tao, today's meal of wine will make Cao go on a grand tour for you!"
"Plop!"
After hearing this, the potter fell directly from the dwarf tree.
Bian Yu'er was standing aside and was about to pour wine for the pottery merchant when she suddenly found that the pottery merchant had disappeared. Her pretty face showed surprise and she secretly wondered what kind of skills Master Tao had practiced? How could he say that he was gone?
But Bian Yuer soon discovered that the potter's Kung Fu skills were really limited... He just slipped from the edge of the table.
Cao Cao was stunned by Tao Shang's strong reaction and said curiously: "Mr. Tao, Cao is just offering you a cup of wine to prepare for the expedition. I wish you and my troops a triumphant victory in the expedition in the future. You What is this for?"
I didn’t tell you before I went out to fight and drink wine! It’s like beheading my head to drink wine!
The potter patted the dust on his body, stood up, returned to his position and said, "It's okay, there was a mouse scurrying across the ground just now."
Cao Cao was stunned, looked down at the ground, and said, "Where is the mouse?"
"I pinched him to death." The pottery merchant raised his wine cup with an expressionless expression and drank it all in one gulp.
