"So, Your Highness the Prince, what do you say?"

Qi Wuxian looked at Zhou Budo with a smile on his face, this matter still needs Zhou Budo to speak, after all, it seems that the main reason why this Wang Peng apologized and admitted his mistake neatly as soon as he came up is because the identity of everyone present is not much lower than him, especially Zhou Budo, a prince of Zhou Wang will press him hard, otherwise, if only one Qi Wuxian is here, it is estimated that this Wang Peng will have to have a good fight with himself about who is right and who is wrong.

Since this is the case, then let Zhou Budo see how this matter should be concluded, anyway, no matter how Zhou Budo decides, Qi Wuxiu is not afraid of Wang Peng, not to mention that there are so many people here now, one Wang Peng, it is still not enough.

However, I saw Zhou Budo blinking, supporting his head with one hand, and said to Wang Peng with an innocent face

"Director Wang, right?"

"Yes, yes, yes."

"Your son, disturbing our temperament of drinking and having fun, I will give in again and again, but your son still has to forgive people and not forgive people, and he is pressing step by step, Director Wang, what should I do, you must know more about being a father than I am a child."

After that, Zhou Budo picked up a string of meat skewers on the table, drank tea for a long time, and should always eat something to fill his stomach.

But before Wang Peng could reply, the young master of the Wang family, who was kneeling on the ground by Wang Peng, was not happy, and scolded Zhou Budo, who was eating meat skewers

"You little kid hasn't even grown any hair, what are you doing here? What is going on with my father, you little turtle calf needs to ask? Hurry up and roll how far, I really don't know which family raised you like this little turtle calf, meeting you little turtle calf is really a big disaster in this young master's life! ”

Suddenly, as soon as the words of the young master of the Wang family came out, Wang Peng's sweat was like rain, and he hurriedly looked at Zhou Budo, seeing that Zhou Budo's face slowly turned cold, Wang Peng hurriedly said in his heart that something was wrong.

Immediately after watching Kumu and the others' faces change, Wang Peng directly kicked on his son's back, the young master of the Wang family was good now, and directly lay on the ground with his whole body, and his hands wanted to support his body and press it on the floor, this posture, how to look like a posture of begging for mercy.

It's just that the only regret is that the young master of the Wang family is still immersed in his own fantasies, and he didn't understand why his father treated him like this, so he said to his father a little angrily

"Dad, what are you doing? Just that little turtle calf has no hair, what are you afraid of him doing? Dad, you can quickly call your men to come up and arrest all these guys, and I want to let them experience the feeling that life is worse than death. ”

Wang Peng now has the heart to kill his son, he really doesn't know, who is in his son's brain, why hasn't he come back to his senses when things have reached such a point, none of these people sitting across the fuck can be easily provoked by your father, not to mention that now your kid is provoking a group of them.

Zhou Budo's eyes looked coldly at the young master of the Wang family who was kneeling on the ground, just now he said that he was going to watch the play with a smile, but he didn't think about it, so he said a few words and was scolded by the young master of the Wang family, hehe, this gentleman, no.

This can't be regarded as a gentleman anymore, those young masters, will they be like this guy, and their brains are like decorations?

"Brother Kumu, scrap one of his arms."

Zhou Budo's tone and expression when he said this were the first time he had seen Zhou Budo like this in front of everyone, and he couldn't hear or see any anger, but he could clearly feel the indescribable feeling.

Kumu did not hesitate, and directly pulled out the fish intestine sword, before Wang Peng could react, he saw a flash of sword light, and the hands of the young master of the Wang family who were originally supporting the floor have now lost one, and in an instant, the entire arm was cut off by the fish intestine sword like chopping vegetables, and blood gushed out from that arm like a spring, and the young master of the Wang family was still stunned, and he lost an arm.

By the time Wang Peng reacted, Kumu had already inserted the fish intestine sword back into the scabbard, picked up the wine glass on the table, and glanced at the young master of the Wang family who was screaming in pain on the ground with some disdain.

This bloody scene not only stunned Wang Peng, but also the other guests who were drinking on the second floor were dumbfounded.

This, this, this, in front of the public, in front of someone's father, really broke one of the arms of the young master of the Wang family?

There are still many of these guests who don't know Zhou Budo and his party, so they only feel that this group of people has made a big deal now.

Looking at his son, who was in pain on the ground, Wang Peng lost his mind for a moment and almost fell to the ground, but fortunately, the subordinates behind him stepped forward in time to hold him, and Wang Peng did not lose face.

His face was a little pale, and the corners of his mouth were bitter and said to Kumu

"Bitter Sword Master, this move is too much, isn't it? My son just insulted His Royal Highness the Prince, so he cut off one of his arms, isn't this a little too much..."

Kumu snorted coldly, drank all the green plum wine in the cup, didn't even look at Wang Peng, and replied coldly

"But? Insulting the prince is like insulting the prince, Wang Peng, you don't even pay attention to the prince of Zhou? ”

"Yes, Wang Peng, I see you on weekdays, I don't want to say anything about your weak temperament, didn't I expect you to even pay attention to Lord Zhou and his old man?"

Qi Wuxian said this loudly, which can be regarded as letting the other guests on the second floor understand Zhou Budo's identity.

Suddenly, the discussion began

"Obediently, that little doll didn't expect it to be His Royal Highness the Prince of Zhou, this young master of the Wang family really deserves it."

"Yes, yes, yes, and this Wang Peng, among his sons, who insulted His Royal Highness the Prince, he, the director of the Second Division of the Ruling Money, actually said this, no wonder the Ruling Priest will gradually decline, it is really a rat poison that ruined a pot of soup."

The more and more ugly words came into Wang Peng's ears one by one, and at this time he also realized that his mouth was wrong, but his son lost an arm because of such a trivial matter, and as a father, he Wang Peng really couldn't swallow this breath.

"This matter, this is the end of it, His Royal Highness, okay?"

Wang Peng struggled a little in his heart, he wanted to stay and question Zhou Budo, but, but he also knew that at this juncture, he would never be able to confront Zhou Budo and these guys, this was related to the overall situation, if he decided like this because of his own thoughts, he would be invited into the palace by the emperor tomorrow and reprimanded.

However, seeing that Zhou Budo did not respond for a long time, Wang Peng gritted his teeth, and finally raised some confidence, and said to Zhou Budo again

"Your Highness! My son has lost an arm for his recklessness, and I beseech His Highness to spare him. ”

At this moment, Wang Peng knelt directly on one knee and faced Zhou Budo.

As the director of the Second Division of the Zhijin Division, one of the three major guards of the Nanli Yamen, Wang Peng's identity is a force to be reckoned with even in Jinling City, where powerful people are everywhere, but today in front of Zhou Budo, a ten-year-old child, he threw his face and knelt down to admit his mistake for his fool-like son.

Kuki's face remained unchanged at this scene, as if this incident had nothing to do with him.

However, Qi Wuxian frowned, approached Zhou Budo and whispered to him

"His Royal Highness, how can Wang Peng say that he is also a fourth-grade official, such a demeanor, it is better to let him hurry up, otherwise if it spreads, it will also be a bad influence for Lord Zhou."

Zhou Budo's face changed slightly, he opened his mouth, and when he was about to speak, he suddenly stood up with a smile and walked in front of Wang Peng, and said with endless disappointment in his tone

"As the director of the Second Division, do you know what impact your kneeling will have on my Jinshi?"

When he said this, the drunkenness of his laughter had not yet dissipated.

"Get up, this is the end of the matter."

Zhou Budo closed his eyes, although he was still young, he still understood the system of these things, but the words that the young master of the Wang family said would still leave a mark in his heart.

I'll settle accounts with him later.

Wang Peng stood up in shame, not daring to look directly at him with a smile, he also knew that it would be a complete scandal for the ruling Jinsi to do this, but if Zhou Budo still wanted to continue to confront him, he himself would be disliked by the emperor.

Zhijinsi's face and his own wealth, after he made a choice, he still chose the latter.

"Brother Xiao, don't talk to him, Director Wang, take your son with you, let's go."

Zhou Budo forcibly suppressed the displeasure in his heart, greeted him back with a smile, and at the same time issued an expulsion order to Wang Peng.

"Take the broken arm, take it away, go outside the city to find Ji Wuying, according to his means, he can still catch it."

Kumu dropped this sentence lightly.

What he said is not wrong, Ji Wuying's medical skills, it is possible to sew up the broken arm, but as for the fish intestine sword qi that remains on the broken arm, Ji Wuying can do nothing about it.

In other words, the broken arm can be connected, but the arm of the young master of the Wang family in the future will also become the culprit of his pain turning over and over every night.

And not only that, as long as the fish intestine sword qi is not eliminated for a day, this young master of the Wang family will not be able to cultivate for a day.

And the sword qi of the fish intestine sword, the people who can dispel it, there are only a few top monks of the older generation in the country.

Therefore, this can be regarded as a gift left by Kumu to the young master of the Wang family.

Insulting the prince of Zhou, heh, Kumu has another layer of identity.

Kumu is still a doorman in the Zhou Palace, although he has no other influence, but as a doorman, it is justified to take action for the master's family.

Wang Peng nodded in response, and while instructing the people under his hand to lift the young master of the Wang family, he picked up the broken arm from not far away, and soon after, Wang Peng left Tianxiang Building with these people.

It was also after Wang Peng and they walked away that Xiao Er of Tianxiang Lou came over again, and when he saw Zhou Budo leaning on the back of the chair and closing his eyes and not saying a word, Xiao Er had to smile bitterly and apologize to everyone

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I can't help it, let you suffer such troubles in my Tianxiang Building, I have reported this matter to the landlord, the landlord said, this matter is my Tianxianglou's mistake and omission to you, my Tianxianglou has nothing to make amends, if you come to my Tianxianglou in the future, say hello in advance, and then my Tianxianglou will leave a private room on the third floor for you, only open for you."

Qi Wuxian waved his hand impatiently and said

"Got it, there's nothing to do with you here, go down"

After Xiao Er left with a smile, Qi Wuxian looked at the chair sitting on the chair with a silent smile, smacked his lips, and said to him with some embarrassment

"Suddenly laughing, this thing."

"It has nothing to do with you, it's Wang Peng's fault, I'll reply to Director Gao in the back of the meeting, ask to see the boss with Director Gao, and let the boss deal with Wang Peng."

Suddenly, laughing, at this time, how could he still be at ease drinking green plum wine just now, and what he had on his face was just countless gloom and displeasure.

As soon as he woke up, he encountered this incident, and for Suddenly, the Ruling Boss means a lot to him, whether it is his master's expectations of himself or something else, he Suddenly Laugh has already regarded the Execution Boss as his home.

He had heard about the Second Division for a long time, so at the beginning, he didn't think about going to the Second Division at all, and only the most dangerous First Division could sharpen his mind.

But today in Tianxianglou, in front of so many people, this Wang Peng knelt down by himself regardless of the face of the ruling Jinsi.

Although this matter itself is because of the young master of the Wang family, but your Wang Peng's temperament is so weak?

Is His Royal Highness going to pursue it again?

These two divisions must be reported to the boss to rectify it.

In the past, he was just the commander of a division, and he had no right to meddle in this kind of thing and no capital to intervene.

But now, he is the deputy director of the first division, and he should have taken over some of the affairs of the second division.

Wang Peng?

Or let him go home and be a rich man, in addition to embarrassing the Jinsi by staying in the Jinsi, what kind of contributions has Wang Peng made to the Jinsi over the years?

"Your Royal Highness, I will retire first."

Suddenly, he got up and was about to walk out, but then a dizziness in his head appeared, and the soles of his feet slipped, if it weren't for Hei Thirteen holding him, Suddenly laughing would have fallen directly to the ground.

"You, you, you'd better stay here and wake up."

Qi Wuxian greeted and pressed Hu Di Xiao back to his place, then smacked his wine glass, picked up the teapot in front of Zhou Budo and poured a cup of hot tea for Hu Di Xiao, handed it to Hu Di Xiao's mouth, and said

"Drink it, I really don't understand, a plum wine can get you drunk."

Qi Wuxian was about to refute something, but his head still hurt a little, and in the end he could only take the cup and drink a sip of hot tea.

"I'm here, tired, how can this thing get me drunk with plum wine, it's because I got up too early today and didn't sleep well last night."

While drinking hot tea, he suddenly smiled and explained to himself.

However, everyone also smiled tacitly, and did not refute and laughed suddenly.

At this time, in the yamen of Honglu Temple in Jinling City.

Luo Yi stood in front of the Ministry of Rites Shangshu, and said respectfully to the Ministry of Rites Shangshu

"Today's court, thank you for your help, my lord's grace today, I will definitely remember it in my heart."

"There is no need to do this, the reopening of trade routes with Beigen is a matter of good and no harm to my south, and the official just said what he should say."

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu asked the officials of the Honglu Temple Yamen to be busy with their own affairs, and only he and Luo Yi were left in this room at this time.

"No matter what, thank you for today's events."

Luo Yi took out a feather arrow from his arms at this time, solemnly handed it over to the hand of the Ministry of Rites Shangshu and said

"This is my Yandi Nine Cavalry Arrows, the bearers of the arrows can run rampant in most places in my Beigen, my lord and my subordinates, if the south leaves the south in the future when the envoys are sent to my Beigen, maybe this thing will play some role at that time."

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu frowned, and just wanted to refuse, but after hearing Luo Yi's words, one hand trembled, and finally the feather arrow was handed down.

"When will you return to Beigen?"

"Two days later."

"What about the 60,000 Iron Horsemen? Do you need to wait until you get back to Beigen before you can go south? ”

Luo Yi chuckled

"This matter is easy, I discussed this matter with my majesty before the envoy, whether it is successful or not, my Beigen army will go south and go straight to the Central Plains on the fifteenth of this month."

After hearing this, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu couldn't help but look at Luo Yi's eyes with a hint of caution that he hadn't seen for a long time.

"Has the national situation of Beigen been eroded to such a point? Whether it works out or not, you Beigen will sell it with me. ”

Regarding the authenticity of Luo Yi's words, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu has no doubts, because Luo Yi can't deceive him in this matter, otherwise it will not be good for Luo Yi or Beigen.

But in this case, it also means that the little emperor of Beigen doesn't care much about the result of this mission to the south.

In the court, he noticed it as soon as Luo Yi said that he would reopen the trade route, this matter was that Beigen wanted to sell it to Nanli in order to gain the friendship of Nanli, but Beigen, as an empire, is also an empire famous for its military strength, so what kind of reason would such a country need to make friends with Nanli at a loss?

Judging from the intelligence over the years, there may be only one, that is, the gunsmoke of the Beigen Empire's family and royal family has become more and more serious, so serious that the little emperor needs to get the support of other empires.

This matter, for him Nanli, especially for his Ministry of Rites, is undoubtedly an operable thing.

Didn't he need solidarity from the royal family of Beigen?

The strength of this solidarity is what he has to grasp well.

The strength of the support was too great, and the royal family of Beigen gained the upper hand, allowing the family to fall into the upper hand, and finally restoring imperial power, which was not good for Nanli.

However, the strength of solidarity was too small, so that several families of Beigen usurped the throne of Beigen and divided the Beigen Empire, just like the past of the Zhongjin Dynasty, it was an unacceptable thing for Nanli.

And Emperor Li will never allow such an outcome to happen.

Because this is a kind of maintenance of the monarchy, if the Beigen royal family is destroyed because of the emperor's departure, then it will undoubtedly have a negative impact on the authority of the emperor and the reputation of the south.

Therefore, this place needs to be well controlled by him, as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and try to maintain the momentum of both sides on a horizontal line, so that it is in the best interests of Nanli.

What's more, Luo Yi has already conveyed the meaning of the little emperor of Beigen, and is willing to send 60,000 iron cavalry south to assist Nanli to attack the Central Plains coalition army, which is one thing that Nanli can't find any fault with, in other words, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu can't find any reason to refuse this matter at all.

Although he is a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, he also retired from the army when he was young, and made military merits before he reached the top of Shangshu, so he has a number of what the 60,000 iron cavalry in Beigen means to the front-line battle.

However, according to his expectations, these 60,000 iron horsemen need to wait until Luo Yi and his party return to Beigen to resume their lives before they can go south.

But now Luo Yi said to himself that the 60,000 iron horsemen of Beigen will go south on the 15th of this month, regardless of the success of the talks between the two countries.

This is undoubtedly Luo Yi's message of opening the skylight and leaving the south, and the contradiction between his current royal family and the family has gradually reached an uncontrollable point.

However, this will definitely be a good thing for Nanli, after all, the faster the army of Beigen comes, the faster the pressure of the new army on the other side of Baiqi will be relieved.

But there are pros and cons.

The disadvantage is that the Ministry of Rites Shangshu can see from the meaning of Luo Yi saying this to himself, and Luo Yi is also using this sentence to warn himself.

Don't play those false things in Nanli, my Beigen has already pulled down his face like this, if you still play the game of mastering the scales, don't blame me Beigen for being unjust.

Yes, after all, the matter is not a foregone conclusion, who knows that the 60,000 iron cavalry of Beigen will become the allies of Nanli, and will they join the Central Plains Coalition to crusade against Nanli?

Even if it becomes a settlement, the Beigen army kills the Central Plains, but as long as the battle on this battlefield has not ended, then as long as there is any mistake in Nanli's solidarity with Beigen, the 60,000 troops of Beigen staying in the Central Plains will not hesitate to defect to the side of the Central Plains coalition army.

Good means.

The Ministry of Rites' eyes narrowed slightly, Luo Yi also smiled and did not answer, and after the two were in a stalemate for a while, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu said

"The official knows, this matter will be reported to His Majesty, and the envoy should rest early."

With that, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu turned around and pushed open the door and walked out.

In the house, Luo Yi closed the door and sat back on the couch, and couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief.

To tell the truth, he was really afraid that this Ministry of Rites Shangshu would directly tear his face, after all, he Luo Yi also knew that his small means could deter Nan Liqun for a while, but as long as he waited until Zhou Dunyi and the old commander of the Bai family had a free hand on the two battlefields, his small means would be self-defeating.
