"Your Excellency, what are you saying? Your Excellency's trip is for the benefit of the people of Yanzhou. Even if the entire army enters the city, I, Cao, will be happy to entertain you."
"Alright, Your Majesty and the people have not committed any offenses against you. Mengde, stop acting like a woman."
Looking at Mengde's government office in Juancheng, it was like a sparrow—small, but complete in every way.
"At the banquet, Mengde will need to properly introduce these outstanding individuals to me!"
"Of course, the Duke also has many fierce generals under his command. At that time, please introduce these fierce generals to us!"

"Hey, you guys too, don't go easy on me just because I'm familiar with Mengde."
Today, I will properly demonstrate the might of the soldiers of Bingzhou to them!
