Back to the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 434: Banquet

There was footsteps outside the door, and Chen Lang couldn't help feeling his heart beating. I couldn't help but looked towards the door, and saw a man with a white robe and a charm and charm came in! Chen Lang only felt his eyes light up.

Zhuge Liang walked into the back room, noticed Chen Lang first, and then saluted his brother: "Little brother has seen his brother."

Zhuge Jin smiled and said: "Kong Ming is here." Then he pointed to Chen Lang who was sitting next to him and said: "I have seen General Donglang soon!"

Zhuge Liang immediately bowed to Chen Lang and said, "I have seen General Donglang!"

Chen Lang smiled and said: "I am worthy of Brother Tzuyu, you don't have to be so polite with me. I will call you Kong Ming according to Brother Tzuyu, and you will call me Big Brother Donglang."

Zhuge Jin nodded and said yes. Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Big Brother Donglang really has an appetite for the younger brother!"

Chen Lang laughed loudly and turned to Zhuge Jin and said, "Tzuyu, we are all our own, so I don’t think we need to be so polite! Everyone eats, drinks, and laughs at will. Wouldn’t you be happy!" Zhuge Jin said with a smile: "Me too. That's what I meant!" At this time, Zhuge Liang had already sat down a few times after his brother's case.

The three maidservants filed in with drinks and delicacies, put them down in front of the three, and then stepped back.

Zhuge Jin picked up the wine glass and smiled to Chen Lang and said: "Congratulations to Brother Xian for winning the martial arts test leader!" Chen Lang picked up the wine glass and smiled; "Thank you, thank you!" The two drank the wine together. Putting down the wine glass, Zhuge Jin frequently advised the dishes. Chen Lang tried everything. Although it was not as delicious as his own, he did not have a Jiangnan flavor. It's just that this Jiangnan cuisine is too pure and unwilling, and some of them don't quite like Chen Lang.

Zhuge Liang glanced at Chen Lang, then smiled and said, "Brother Donglang, I think you can be described as the dragon among the people with your temperament and demeanor. You don't have any Dongyi barbarian atmosphere at all?"

Chen Lang smiled and said, "I have learned the language and culture of the Han from a Han master since I was a child, so I am more like a Han than my own! I am not afraid of the two brothers laughing, in fact, when I was in the clan, I was of the same kind! On the contrary! Staying at ease among the Han people! So this time I came to Jiang Xia and it simply worked for King Wu!" Zhuge Jin couldn't help laughing. Zhuge Liang was smiling.

Zhuge Jin said: "This virtuous brother's decision is very wise! With the current virtuous brother's situation, it will only be a matter of time before it is too high!" Chen Lang smiled and clasped his fists and said, "Thank you brother for your kind words!"

Zhuge Jin waved his hand and said with a lonely expression: "Seeing that the future of the virtuous brother is bright, brother Yu is happy for the virtuous brother, but thinking that I have been working for King Wu for so many years, Yingying Gougou has made no achievements, and can't help but feel a little hurt. Embrace!"

Chen Lang said: "Brother, don't worry. Brother just hasn't waited for the opportunity. Once the opportunity comes, your brother will be famous all over the world!"

Zhuge Jin couldn't help showing a look of longing. He picked up the wine glass and ate it, and said loudly: "If you really can do what the virtuous brother said, you will have no regrets in this life!" He glanced at Chen Lang and said: "Don't hide from the virtuous brother. Yu brother is not clinging to the official position, but How can a man who was born in the world not make a great contribution! If he spends his life in a mediocre life, it is really shameless to see the ancestors and ancestors!"

Chen Lang nodded appreciatively.

The three people continued to drink and chat, but at this time the topic shifted to Fenghuaxueyue. Chen Lang frequently toasts to Zhuge Jin. Zhuge Jin is not refusing to drink until the drink is dry. Before he knows, Zhuge Jin is already drunk on the desk.

Chen Lang smiled and said to Zhuge Liang: "Kong Ming, brother is asleep, let's not disturb him, it's better to go around in the yard."

Zhuge Liang smiled and clasped his fists and said, "My little brother has this intention."

The two stood up, Zhuge Liang called the servants and asked them to help Zhuge Jin to go to bed in the bedroom.

The two people left the back room and came to the backyard. At this time, the night was thick, and the heaven and the earth were quiet.

Chen Lang took a deep breath, and the cool night wind poured into his lungs. He seemed to be awake a lot. He couldn't help sighing, "It's a quiet and beautiful night!"

Zhuge Liang glanced at Chen Lang and said, "I heard that Luoyang is completely different from this Jiangxia. Even at this time, Luoyang is full of bright lights and noisy!"

Chen Lang smiled and said: "At this time in Luoyang, there are only a few commercial streets busy, and other places are still very quiet." As soon as he said this, Chen Lang immediately felt a gaffe and said with a smile: "I also heard what the merchants in the city said. What exactly it looks like is really desirable!"

Zhuge Liang smiled slightly. The two were strolling along the small pond. Zhuge Liang asked, "Why did Brother Donglang take refuge in King Wu?"

Chen Lang was taken aback, then smiled and asked, "Why does Kong Ming ask that? Shouldn't I take refuge in King Wu?"

Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "I think Brother Donglang's speech is no different from our Han people. I must also know the general situation of the Central Plains now. The heroes of the Central Plains, in terms of strength, are led by Yuan Shao, and in terms of the hero's courage, Chen Langhe must be counted. Cao Cao is here. Although Wu Wang is still a Mingzhu, he is not as strong as Yuan Shao, and his boldness and heroism are not as good as Chen Lang and Cao Cao. It can be said that the difference is high or low. Brother Donglang naturally understands this. Yes. The younger brother is really puzzled. Since Big Brother Donglang wants to come to the Central Plains for development, why would he choose King Wu instead of Yuan Shao, Chen Lang or Cao Cao?"

Chen Lang’s thoughts flashed in his heart, and he smiled: “The reason is actually very simple. Who told me to be born in Dongyi, my hometown and relatives were under the rule of King Wu! If I didn’t work for King Wu, who else could I do? Effectiveness." Chen Lang's remarks sounded very reasonable at first glance, but in fact they didn't make sense after thinking about them carefully. Today, there are crowds of heroes competing, and the talents of the world choose the master and cast their effects. Quite a few of the princes' subordinates are not local talents. Therefore, Chen Lang's words were obviously perfunctory, but Chen Lang couldn't find any other words at this moment.

Chen Lang couldn't help sighing in his heart: "This Zhuge Liang really deserves his reputation! Some seemingly simple words almost forced myself to a dead end! Why did he suddenly ask me this question? Is he already aware of my identity? 'Chen Lang immediately denied this speculation. He was confident that he had not revealed any flaws so far. If Zhuge Liang could really guess his identity under such circumstances, then he is really not a human but a demon. !

Zhuge Liang smiled, and said, "Brother Donglang, when I was chatting with my brother just now, he seemed absent-minded, but he frequently advised him to drink. I don't know if I am over-hearted. How do I feel as if Brother Donglang intends to get my brother drunk. what!"

Chen Lang couldn't help but feel terrified.

Just listen to that Zhuge Liang continued: "Brother Donglang invited me out to hang out after being drunk by my brother. I think the purpose of Brother Donglang being drunk by my brother should be to talk to me in private. I don’t know if I am right. wrong?"

There was a strange feeling in Chen Lang's heart that he had never felt before, as if he was standing in front of Zhuge Liang with a slight bu. I couldn't help but smile and shook his head with emotion: "Mr. Wolong really lives up to his reputation, he is observant, and his wisdom is as deep as the sea!" Then he looked at Zhuge Liang, smiled slightly, and said in the tone of the exam: "Then Kong Ming might as well guess what I want to say to you. ?"

Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "Brother Donglang is embarrassing me! I am not a god, how can I guess your intention out of thin air!"

Chen Lang smiled and said, "Kong Ming might as well take a guess. Even if the guess is wrong, I won't laugh at you!"

Zhuge nodded brightly, clasped his fist and said: "Since Big Brother Donglang is dead, it is better for the younger brother to be respectful. If you guess wrong, don't make fun of Brother Donglang!" Chen Lang smiled and looked at him.

Zhuge Liang showed a contemplative look, and walked back and forth in front of Chen Lang for a while. Stopped and said to Chen Lang: "If Donglang is only here to work for King Wu, he should talk to my brother a lot. There is no reason why my brother is drunk and talks to me! And brother Donglang. The practice is completely the opposite! Why is this? Is it necessary to discuss major issues with me? It is impossible for me to think about it. So I guess that Brother Donglang’s purpose is for me. After all, I am a little fake. what."

When Chen Lang heard what he said, he couldn't believe it.

Just listen to Zhuge Liang continue: "I heard that Brother Donglang had a conflict with Miss Sun Ren outside the city. Then Miss Sun Ren recommended Brother Donglang to King Wu. However, Brother Donglang was obviously negative at the Samurai Conference. , If it weren’t for Miss Sun In who always called out Donglang at critical times, Donglang would still be an obscure samurai now. I think Donglang’s participation in the samurai meeting was just out of coincidence and unwillingness, and Donglang seems to always I want to be unobtrusive! Therefore, I judged that the purpose of Donglang's trip was not to do business, nor to participate in the samurai meeting, let alone to work for King Wu. Brother Donglang should belong to a certain party. People of power, I think those who are not from Cao Cao’s side must be from Chen Lang side! Brother Donglang’s trip to Jiangxia, one is to inquire about the weather in Jiangdong, and the other is perhaps for me? The so-called Dongyi barbarians should be just the eldest brother. It’s just a disguised identity."

Chen Lang really doesn't know what to say! This Zhuge Liang was almost as if he had seen his words and deeds. Although he didn't get everything, he was almost done. A word suddenly appeared in Chen Lang's heart: Demon! Yes, it's a demon! This Zhuge Liang is simply not human!

Chen Lang smiled and nodded, and said, "Kong Ming is really not given the title of Wolong for nothing!"

Zhuge Liang smiled slightly.

Chen Lang couldn't help but want to see how powerful Zhuge Liang's ingenuity was, and asked: "Kong Ming might as well guess which side I came from and what my specific identity is?"

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Big brother, this is me in the exam!" Then he nodded and smiled: "Big brother is dead, I dare not follow!"
