In the early morning of the next day, Lei Ying sent the news that King Guhong really no longer delved into the matter of the inner ghost, so he announced the truth to the outside world according to what Mu Huang said, and did not mention anything about Liang Feng. However, Liang Feng, as the vanguard of the left army in Linhai City, suddenly disappeared, which inevitably aroused suspicion, so Zhenhai Hou had to announce Liang Feng's death in the army and arrange a funeral for him.

When the matter came to an end, Qingcheng was relieved. The inner ghost subdues, and Liang Feng's reputation is preserved, which is the best of both worlds. However, at the moment, he can't care about other things. After Lei Ying came back, not long after, someone from Wan Li's army spread the word, and he actually claimed that King Guhong was going to give a banquet to Qingcheng.

"Pass on the order of the prince, invite General Duan to the banquet at noon today, and the prince will set up a banquet in Linxian Ju to entertain the general."

Listening to the words of the herald, the three of Qingcheng were stunned, and they didn't know what King Guhong had planned, so they wanted to feast Qingcheng.

"Duan Qingcheng thanked the prince for his kindness, and he should go to the meeting."

King Guhong set up a banquet, how could there be a reason not to go, Qingcheng had to accept it. After he groaned for a while, he looked at the herald and asked, "I don't know what the prince wants to order, but I hope to mention it more, and I can be prepared so that I won't lose face in front of the prince." ”

After Qingcheng finished speaking, he glanced at Lei Ying, who immediately understood, hurriedly took out a silver ingot from his arms, and quietly handed it to the herald.

When the herald saw what Thunder Shadow was holding, his eyes showed unconcealable joy. After a little excuse, he saw that Qingcheng was very persistent, so he thanked him, and then accepted Qingcheng's gift with joy, and said with a chuckle: "The general doesn't have to worry too much, the prince has nothing important to order." This time the general has made a great contribution, the prince has been in a very good mood recently, he just wants to talk to the general, even if there is something, it is a good thing, a happy event, the general can be relieved. ”

King Guhong is very deep in the city, Qingcheng didn't believe that he just wanted to drink and talk to himself, after all, the relationship between the two didn't seem to have reached that point, thinking that it should be this herald who didn't know, so he didn't ask again.

"The prince is sympathetic to his subordinates, it is really the luck of Qingcheng, the luck of the army, in this way, then Qingcheng is better than obeying his fate. By the way, above the banquet, in addition to below, who are the others? ”

"The prince is just feasting the general today, and there is no one else."

As soon as he heard that King Guhong only called himself, Qingcheng was even more puzzled, this was obviously something to discuss, but he didn't know what kind of medicine was bought in the gourd of this Mu Wangye.

After sending off the heralds, Hurricane couldn't help but say, "This Lone Hong King, what is he going to do for no reason. I just picked up the wind for the army last night, and today I am going to feast the young master, shouldn't it be a Hongmen banquet? ”

Listening to the words of the wind, Qingcheng and Lei Ying glanced at each other, shook their heads in silence, and then said: "We didn't provoke him, for no reason, why do you want to kill me?" I'm just worried that the banquet must be a Hongmen banquet, but I don't know who he Guhong King is going to deal with. ”

Lei Ying heard the suspicion in Qingcheng's words, and immediately asked: "Is the young master worried, King Guhong intends to win over the young master and deal with Zhenhai Hou together?" ”

"That's all I can think of."

Qingcheng was indeed worried about the Marquis of Zhenhai, so after he pondered for a while, his brows furrowed slightly, and he sighed: "This Prince Mu must have something to order, and I suspect that he has already intended to move the Marquis of Zhenhai, so this Haichuan bandit should be an opportunity." However, there are also places that don't make sense, King Guhong wants to be the Marquis of Zhenhai, why bother to pull me? I am soft-spoken, whether in the DPRK or in the army, I have not made any achievements, not to mention that I am not his confidant, I am rash to discuss, am I not afraid that I will secretly inform the Marquis of Zhenhai and disrupt his plan? ”

Qingcheng really couldn't think of a reason, even if he suspected that King Guhong intended to be unfavorable to Zhenhaihou, he felt that he would not be able to pull himself along. And Thunder Shadow and Storm couldn't guess King Guhong's thoughts, and fell into silence.

"Hey", after a while, Qingcheng sighed and said, "It's useless to think too much, let's go and see the situation." Anyway, the soldiers came to block the water and cover the earth, and I began to wonder what he was going to say to me. ”

I don't distinguish between the position of King Guhong, and the wind is worried about Qingcheng, so he proposed to accompany him, but Qingcheng refused, and explained: "If you two go with you, it seems that I am not sincere and have the intention of embankment." We are under the roof, and we can't easily offend him. Anyway, there is only one Xu Lin in the Wanli army at most, and if there is really something, he Guhong King may not be able to keep me. ”

Qingcheng's attitude was insistent, and what he said was true, although the wind was worried about his safety, he had no choice but to give up.

Although Qingcheng is loyal and courageous, he is not a foolish and loyal person, and he knows that if there is a grievance, only by surviving can justice be served, so if King Guhong intends to cause harm, Qingcheng will never be killed. After all, now he is not only shouldering personal honor and disgrace, but also the fate of the entire Duan family.

At noon, Qingcheng changed into a light suit, took the special pastries he asked Lei Ying to buy in Linhai City, and went to the banquet alone. After arriving at Linxian Residence, Qingcheng carefully observed the surrounding environment, and after confirming that there was nothing abnormal, he tidied up his clothes and walked into the restaurant with his head held high.

One of the reasons why Qingcheng dared to go to the banquet alone was the place chosen by King Guhong. This is not a private house, nor is it a Wanli military camp, and King Guhong has not chartered the entire restaurant, so it is difficult to hide people's eyes and ears. And with Qingcheng's skills, even if Xu Linshang wants to take him down in the downtown area, it is impossible not to alarm the people nearby. Even the garrison army of Linhai City.

Therefore, Qingcheng concluded that King Guhong's move was not to set up an ambush to cause harm, so he naturally had no intentions. And after he walked into the Linxian Residence, there was a person who seemed to have been waiting for a long time, and when he saw him coming, he hurriedly greeted him, and clasped his hands into fists to salute, saying, "I've seen the general." The prince waited for the general for a long time, and the villain led the way for the general. ”

"I'm tired."

This person should be a soldier in the Wanli army, or the guard of King Guhong, although he is dressed in civilian clothes, but the military temperament on his body is difficult to hide, and Qingcheng can see at a glance that this person is a good hand, and his ability should not be under the thunder shadow and the wind.

"King Guhong really deserves to be the head of my Daqi's foreign surname, and even the guards around him are comparable to my Duan family's retainers, and they really have a profound background."

Thinking like this in his heart, Qingcheng's feet had already stepped on the stairs. However, at this moment, there was a woman blocking his way, Qingcheng was very puzzled when he saw this, thinking that he had recognized the wrong person, and hurriedly raised his head to look at it.

I saw that the woman in front of me had long hair hanging down her shoulders, and a Wen Xinlan-style hosta was inserted on her head, which was particularly beautiful. Dressed in a moon-white dress, she originally looked extremely stable, but a red belt around her waist could hardly hide her lively personality.

This woman is in the prime of her life, but she is only sixteen or seventeen years old, and she is very decent. She has red lips and white teeth, a delicate face, and a tear mole under her left eye. But seeing that her skin was like snow, and her white clothes were better than the moon; The complexion is stunning and touching. Placed in this small seaside city, it is as dazzling as the sun, and people can't help but take a few more looks.

Ouyang Lan is also stunning, but in Qingcheng's opinion, this woman is not bad at all, but the style is completely different, the former is stable and decent, and the latter is more lively. At this moment, she was standing in the middle of the stairs, obviously blocking Qingcheng's way, with a smug smile on her face, adding a bit of glamour. But Qingcheng thought about it carefully, but he still didn't remember who this person was, and he didn't know how he met him.

The woman looked at Qingcheng with a stunned look and felt a burst of amusement, but she didn't seem to be in a hurry to say hello, just looked at Qingcheng and smiled. Seeing her like this, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in Qingcheng's mind, as if he remembered a person, who was very similar to the woman in front of him.

However, after thinking of it, Qingcheng was even more surprised, with a puzzled expression, and asked tentatively: "Are you, Mu Huang?" ”

"Haha, look at your stupid appearance, don't you recognize Miss Ben?"

She opened her mouth to speak, Qingcheng listened to this familiar voice, and confirmed it even more, she was Mu Huang!

This is the first time Mu Huang has worn women's clothes since the two met, and Qingcheng naturally didn't think of it immediately. And after seeing her open her mouth to admit it, Qingcheng looked at her with a helpless expression, and said with a wry smile: "Mu Zhongzhen, where are you singing?" ”

Seeing Qingcheng's expression, Mu Huang was slightly angry, and said angrily: "What, Miss Ben has had enough, you have an opinion on changing back to your daughter, who told Miss Ben that the army is not a place for child's play, and let me go home early?" ”

As soon as she heard this, Qingcheng knew that she was still angry with herself. But today he was really in a hurry, and he didn't care about messing around with Mu Huang, so he hurriedly said: "Miss, it was my fault that day, Duan Qingcheng apologized to you here." But I didn't mean to teach a lesson, and it was really a good intention. But I have something important to do today, I don't have time to explain to you, when I'm done, I will come to the door to apologize, okay for the time being? ”

Seeing that Qingcheng said soft words, Mu Huang, who was no longer angry, naturally would not squeeze him, and his expression immediately changed a lot. Not to mention, after Mu Huang changed into women's clothes, his smile and smile were extremely moving, and his every move was very eye-catching, and he was completely like a tomboy before.

She heard that Qingcheng had something important to do, and she was playful for a while, and said with a chuckle: "It's just right, Miss Ben is free today, let's go with you, with me, shouldn't I be ashamed of you?" ”

As soon as Qingcheng heard that Mu Huang was going to go with him, he hurriedly explained: "Where are you talking about this, Mu Zhongzhen, you are like that fairy Luofan, but I am standing next to you, it is time to embarrass you." If you are interested, I should also treat you to a meal so that I can thank Brother Liang for his deeds. But it's really inconvenient today, I'm here for the banquet, and Prince Mu is still waiting there, let's talk about it another day, okay? ”

Hearing Qingcheng's rejection of his plan, Mu Huang snorted lightly with a little anger, then pushed him away, and said as he walked: "Who is rare about your food, and you don't know how to lift." When you have time, Miss Ben is not so interested. Let's go. ”

Seeing Mu Huang leave angrily, Qingcheng wanted to explain, but looking at the Guhong King who was still waiting for him, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, and thought in his heart: Forget it, let's explain it well when I have the opportunity.

"There's work waiting, let's go."

With that, Qingcheng went upstairs with the man, ready to meet King Guhong.
