Three Kingdoms: Stealing the Tiger Talisman and forcing Yuan Shao to become a monk

Chapter 565 Jianye night banquet, full of talent

The farce at the port did not have any bad impact, and everyone followed Zhou Yu to his residence and settled down for the time being.

In the blink of an eye, it was midnight, Zhou Yu came again, picked up Yuan Tan and the others and headed to Sun Ce's residence.

Today, Sun Ce held a banquet at his own mansion, entertaining Yuan Tan, and ordered all the civil servants and generals under his command to accompany him, which was also a grand scene.

Everyone was seated, and Yuan Tan didn't know anyone except Zhou Yu who had met today.

Soon, Sun Ce came out from the back court and took the main seat. All the subordinates stood up to salute, and Yuan Tan also stood up. Seeing this Sun Ce, he looked like a tiger, but his face was more handsome, which is rare handsome man.

"Everyone sit down, today is an ordinary banquet, there is no need to be too formal." Sun Ce said boldly.

Everyone thanked them and took their seats one after another.

As soon as Sun Ce sat down, he looked at Yuan Tan. It was the first time he saw Yuan Tan. He had always heard about Yuan Tan's deeds before, but seeing him now, he felt that he was very ordinary, not the brave man he imagined.

"Marquis Qi has heard his name for a long time, and it is indeed extraordinary to see him today. Come on, let me toast you first." Sun Ce toasted to Yuan Tan at the beginning, causing all his subordinates to frown.

"General Sun, you are polite. I have admired General Sun's name for a long time, so I will not be polite." After finishing speaking, he drank the wine in his glass.

"Qi Hou is bold, don't tell me that Qi Hou is not afraid of me poisoning the wine." Sun Ce's question surprised everyone, especially the four people brought by Yuan Tan, who were even more worried about it.

"General Sun was joking. Since I have already arrived here, why did General Sun poison the wine? Moreover, General Sun is an upright person, so why should he behave like a villain?" Yuan Tan laughed.

"Well said, Marquis Qi is indeed very generous. Sun was so abrupt that he punished himself with a glass of wine." With that, Sun Ce drank all the wine in the glass.

"The banquet is here, but there is no program. We and others in the army certainly don't like those Yingying and Yanyan, so let's make people dance swords to cheer up." Sun Ce said also happily.

"General, the last general Cheng Pu is willing to give it a try, but he needs an opponent. I wonder if Qihou would dare to send someone out?" This person is Sun Ce's general Cheng Pu.

Yuan Tan said with a smile, "Who is willing to learn how to teach generals?"

Zhao Yun started fighting first: "Lord, I am willing to go and give it a try."

Seeing Zhao Yun standing up first, the other three felt regretful in their hearts.

"Okay, Zilong, it's up to you to go, remember to click until the end, don't hurt General Cheng." Yuan Tan settled down.

Cheng Pu felt underestimated, so he decided to defeat Zhao Yun.

"The last general, Zhao Yun, lead the tutorial general's brilliant move." Zhao Yun drew out his sword and saluted.

"Okay." Cheng Pu slashed at Zhao Yun first.

Zhao Yun also blocked it with a horizontal sword, turned around and stepped on a swallow in the sky, and handed the long sword to Cheng Pu.

Cheng Pu saw that the slash was fruitless, so he turned back his sword to block, and used the blade of the sword to hold the tip of the sword that Zhao Yun handed over.

The two of them fought back and forth for dozens of rounds.

Cheng Pu was exhausted, so the two drew their swords again and retreated.

At this moment, Cheng Pu didn't dare to be careless. This Zhao Yun really had some tricks. Now it seemed that he was not blushing or out of breath, and seemed to have the strength to fight again.

However, he was a little tired, probably because he was tired from patrolling the army today, and he didn't expect Zhao Yun to be so difficult.

"Okay, both of you are heroes, this time it's a tie." Sun Ce also saw that Cheng Pu was not Zhao Yun's opponent, but he couldn't watch Cheng Pu lose, so he stopped.

"General, I'll... okay" Cheng Pu still wanted to fight, but when he looked at Sun Ce, Sun Ce gave him a sharp look.

"Thank you, General Cheng, for showing mercy." Zhao Yun also thanked him and returned to his seat.

Cheng Pu blushed, returned to his seat, and drank a full glass of wine to feel better.

"Qi Hou's subordinates are really full of general talents." Sun Ce praised, raised his hand and toasted another glass of wine.

"I made General Sun laugh at you." Even he picked up the wine glass and drank it all.

"I heard that Qihou is also good at martial arts, and Zibu wants to learn a thing or two here." This person is Zhang Zhao.

"I don't know, so how can I teach you?" Yuan Tan asked.

"I wonder if Marquis Qi is involved in the strategy of governing the country?" Zhang Zhao asked the most difficult question.

When it comes to the strategy of governing the country, it can be said that it is big and embraces all rivers, and it is small and can be said to be difficult to describe in terms of the livelihood of ordinary people.

However, Yuan Tan said with a smile: "If the way of governing the country is peace in the world, it can be summarized as governance, employment, acceptance of words, pragmatism, clean government, rewards and punishments, reform, prosperity, enlightenment, military affairs, ethnicity, diplomacy, self-discipline, etc. On the one hand, the so-called governance..."

At the beginning, everyone had malicious intentions, and the civil servants all felt that Zhang Zhao's question was too difficult, and I am afraid that no one in the room could answer it well.

However, after hearing what Yuan Tan said, everyone's mouths almost fell on the table.

Including Zhang Zhao, who asked the question, was also fascinated by listening at this time. If these remarks were compiled into a book, they could be regarded as classics handed down from generation to generation.

Sun Ce didn't understand many of them. Seeing Zhang Zhao looking like a student asking for advice, he felt that Yuan Tan was indeed inconsistent with his appearance, and he really had great talent inside.

"...Thus, to be a wise ruler, one needs to be diligent in managing government affairs, know how to use people well, accept advice with an open mind, and be responsible for the truth. If the above can be done, then you will be a wise ruler. This is the strategy for governing the country." Yuan Tan talked endlessly. Said.

Now Zhang Zhao also wanted to ask for advice from the beginning of contempt, so he said: "I listened to what you said, and I suddenly understood, some of which I didn't understand. After the banquet, I will find everyone to ask for advice." Yuan Tan paid homage.

Sun Ce knew that Zhang Zhao was such an arrogant person, who would dare to compare with him in all matters of internal affairs, but at this time he was bowing to Yuan Tan, which shows that this strategy touched his heart.

"Qi Hou is indeed a great talent. It is really Bo Fu's fortune to be able to drink with you here this time. I will wait until I am not drunk tonight." After finishing speaking, he drank another glass.

Yuan Tan also responded with a smile, raising his glass and drinking it all.

At this time, the people in the hall no longer looked down upon Yuan Tangao as before, and all looked at Yuan Tangao.

The banquet lasted until very late before everyone left.

The drunk Sun Ce was supported by Zhou Yu and sent to Sun Ce's residence in the backyard.

"What does Gong Jin think of this person?" Suddenly Sun Ce's eyes were focused, and he didn't look drunk at all.

However, Zhou Yu was not surprised as he knew it before, and immediately replied: "This son is a great talent. If he is an enemy, he will definitely create troubles. If he is a strong enemy, he will get rid of him early."

Sun Ce shook his head, but he felt a heroic feeling in his heart, so he said to Zhou Yu: "Gong Jin, you should go back early, don't keep your siblings waiting."

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand and walked towards the inner room.
