Chapter Forty-Six: Zhao Ming's Banquet
As soon as Zhu Yunyu's words fell, two people flashed out behind the screen, these two are twin brothers, their faces are very similar, the only thing that can distinguish the two is the hair of the two, one person's hair is blue, it is Delei, and the other person's hair is silver, which is Defeng, both of them have strength comparable to the middle stage of Mingyuan Realm, not weaker than the owner of the Seven Great Martial Arts.

After the two came out, they separated on both sides of Zhu Yunyu without speaking, and Zhu Yunyu didn't look at the two of them, and said lightly: "This Prince Qi himself sent someone to snatch the Ziyun Sword, but he came to me to sue the owner of the Fei Pavilion for dereliction of duty, which is too shameless." Defeng, Drey, you find someone to keep an eye on Prince Qi, report to me at any time if there is a situation, and at the same time keep an eye on Prince Xi, the man in gray may be the man he sent. ā
After listening to Zhu Yunyu's order, Dre performed light skills and disappeared like a ghost, leaving Zhu Yunyu alone in the council hall to continue to deal with political affairs.
And after Zhao Yishan and the others went out of the palace gate, they separated, but because the Seven Star Martial Arts Hall and the Yuhuai Street Gym were in the same Yuhuai Street, Zhao Yishan and the Ji Pavilion Master walked on the same road, Zhao Yishan rode a horse and followed the Ji Pavilion Master to the outside of the Seven Star Martial Arts Pavilion, and he watched the Ji Pavilion Master bring Yingya back to the Martial Arts Pavilion before he returned to the Yuhuai Street Gym alone.
Zhao Yishan returned to the Yuhuai Street Pipe House and fell asleep, because he had not been able to rest well for more than ten days, so he had to sleep well and recuperate.
In the early morning of the next day, Yan Guancha called Zhao Yishan over and asked about the things related to the ring match, Zhao Yishan told the truth, and Yan Guancha said: "Deputy Zhao Guancha can investigate the traces of the thieves with all the hall owners, you have done a good job on this patrol mission, but I think this matter involves disputes between big people, our inspection department is just a small yamen, and should not be involved, and Deputy Zhao should also pay attention." ā
Zhao Yishan knew that Yan Guancha had been on an errand in Tianhong City for a long time, and he had a considerable understanding of the situation in Tianhong City, no matter whether Yan Guancha was for the purpose of protecting his subordinates, or he was really unable to participate in this matter, for him, there was no need to get involved.
Zhao Yishan then bowed down and agreed to the instructions of the strict manager, and then went out of the lobby and gathered his men to inspect the streets.
Ma Wubing and the others were also very concerned about the situation after the black-clothed thief snatched the Ziyun Sword, and Zhao Yishan briefly told them.
Zhao Yishan also saw the hard work of Ma Wubing and others patrolling with him during the ring match, and gave them twenty taels of gold each, which was a lot of money for them, but these money were drizzle for Zhao Yishan now, and Zhao Yishan was not heartbroken.
Zhao Yishan returned to the Yuhuai Street management house after patrolling the street, and met the servant sent by Zhao Ming to find him, it turned out that Zhao Ming invited Zhao Yishan to his mansion for a gathering, Zhao Yishan changed his clothes, and followed the servant to Zhao Sikong's mansion in the east of the city.
Seeing Zhao Ming, Zhao Yishan said: "Brother Zhao Ming, since the last goodbye, I have always wanted to find another opportunity to visit you, but I didn't expect you to invite me over first." ā
Zhao Ming said: "Yishan, you and I are the same family, what does it matter who comes first and who comes later, and now it is the annual Yuanhe Festival, I invite you to come to have a family banquet, we spend such a festival together, isn't it just right?" ā
Zhao Yishan knew that Zhao Ming was in a high position, and there must be a lot of entertainment in the Yuanhe Festival, he could think of himself in his busy schedule, and he was also very concerned, and said gratefully: "Brother Zhao Ming, I am alone in Tianhong City, and I am grateful to have your big brother take care of me, so that I have a lot of difficulties, and I, Zhao Yishan, will definitely remember this kindness." ā
Zhao Ming laughed, took Zhao Yishan's hand and said: "Yishan, we are brothers of the same clan, we should take care of each other, don't say such things, let's hurry up and eat the vegetables, otherwise the dishes will be cold." By the way, why didn't the little brother who was with you last time see him coming? ā
Zhao Yishan said: "She is a woman disguised as a man, she is a girl, and she is the daughter of the head of the Seven Star Sect, and now she is left in the martial arts hall by the Ji Pavilion master of the Seven Star Martial Arts Pavilion, and she does not let us see each other." ā
"I see, but Yishan, do you like this little girl?" Zhao Ming asked curiously.
Zhao Yishan replied truthfully: "We are indeed in love with each other, but unfortunately my martial arts are low now, and I can't even protect my beloved." ā
Zhao Ming took a bite of food for Zhao Yishan and comforted: "Lovers can eventually come together, you don't have to be discouraged." ā
Zhao Yishan and Zhao Ming chatted while eating, a table of food was about to be eaten, at this time the servant came to pass the word, and the Fang Inspector of the Yamen of the Inspection Department came to visit, Zhao Ming asked the Fang Inspector to wait in the guest hall, and Zhao Yishan walked slowly to the guest hall.
When Inspector Fang saw Zhao Ming coming, he got up and saluted Zhao Ming and said, "Lord Zhao, the lower officials have taken the liberty to come here, and I hope you will forgive me." ā
Zhao Ming said: "Fang Patrol doesn't need to be polite, you came to me today, I don't know what is going on?" ā
Inspector Fang pondered for a moment, and said hesitantly: "Lord Zhao, in fact, the lower officials are here to find Zhao Yishan, and they want to know about the snatching of the Ziyun Sword in the ring competition. ā
Zhao Ming ordered the servant to exit the guest hall and said, "Oh? Is this matter still related to Zhao Yishan? Tell me, I would like to know the details of this matter. ā
Zhao Yishan has said this matter several times, and when he was asked this time, he spoke skillfully.
Zhao Yishan was silent, Zhao Ming and Fang Inspector were silent, and the guest hall suddenly fell silent.
After a long time, Zhao Ming asked, "Fang Inspection, what do you think of this matter?" ā
Inspector Fang smiled bitterly: "I see that the Great Zhou Kingdom is surging in the undercurrent for a period of time, and it is about to enter an eventful autumn. ā
Zhao Yishan was confused by the words of the two, and his face was puzzled, but Zhao Ming asked: "Yishan, you have already entered the palace and met the emperor, what kind of person do you think the emperor is?" ā
Zhao Yishan replied: "I see that the emperor is quite dignified, and he can also be a corporal of courtesy and virtue when treating people, but it is late at night but he is still reviewing the chapters, and he is a diligent emperor." ā
Zhao Yishan was closed, and Fang Inspector asked again: "Brother Yishan, you once greeted Prince Xi and Prince Qi outside Tianhong City, what do you think of the two of them?" ā
"Prince Hee is angry in the form of color, and he will not control his temper. Prince Qi seemed frivolous and calm. After Zhao Yishan finished speaking, he was still puzzled.
Zhao Ming knew that Zhao Yishan didn't know anything about the affairs of the court, and explained carefully: "Yishan, the emperor is a diligent emperor, there is nothing wrong with this, everyone in the court has a good reputation. And you were deceived by the appearance of Prince Xi and Prince Qi, and this is a long story, involving the battle for the succession of the first emperor. ā
Fang Patrol said: "The emperor's real name is Zhu Yunyu is the eldest son born to the queen mother, so he was made the prince by the first emperor, and the emperor was only ten years old when he was made the prince. ā
Zhao Ming took over the conversation again: "And as time went by, both Prince Xi and Prince Qi showed extraordinary talent. Prince Xi is good at writing, and the books in the Great Zhou Guo Academy's collection are all familiar to him, Prince Qi is good at martial arts, and after Prince Qi practiced martial arts in the Royal Martial Arts Hall, his strength has been comparable to that of the owner of the Royal Martial Arts Hall. And both of them are good at power scheming, and when they grew up to 20 years old, they each recruited a group of henchmen to fight against the crown prince Zhu Yunyu in the court. ā
"In order to avoid his own death, the Great Zhou Kingdom had civil strife due to the struggle for the throne, and separated Prince Xi and Prince Qi in advance, Prince Xi was divided into Nanzhou, and Prince Qi was divided into Tuzhou."
After Zhu Yunyu succeeded to the throne, Prince Xi and Prince Qi suddenly changed their personalities, one became short-tempered, the other became frivolous, and there were often conflicts between the two. The snatching of the Ziyun Sword is very likely to have been done by the two princes, this is the first time that the two princes have been dormant for many years to attack the current emperor, so Fang Inspector will say that the Great Zhou Kingdom is now about to enter an eventful autumn. ā
After listening to Zhao Ming and Fang Inspection's explanations, Zhao Yishan finally understood what was going on, and said: "Then why is Zou Jinrui involved in this matter, he is just a grain merchant?" ā
Zhao Ming said: "I don't know about this, Prince Xi and Prince Qi each have their own henchmen, even the emperor can't know everything." ā
Fang Inspector also said: "The forces that the two princes secretly collected should start to operate at this time, and our inspection department yamen should also pay more attention to these forces to avoid them causing major turmoil." ā
