Chapter 110: Drunken Immortal Tower

After about a meal, the carriage came to a halt.

When Li Jizheng felt doubtful, he only heard Xiao Yan already whispering outside Princess Wukang's carriage: "Princess, Weichen has just received a message from General Wang Feige, saying that tonight a banquet will be held in Yangxian's 'Drunken Immortal Building', and heroes from all over the world will be invited to participate in the grand event. There are also invitations and ministers, and I have come to report it, I don't know what the princess thinks?"

Princess Wukang said curiously: "Is it Wang Jingze?"

Xiao Yan said: "Exactly!"

Princess Wukang said: "He is quite trusted by his father, he is a high and powerful official, a hussar general, in charge of the world's soldiers and horses, wise and brave, and the first capable person in the court." This princess also heard that he has lofty ambitions, is unwilling to be indifferent to fame and fortune, and gathers heroes and heroes from all walks of life in the world in his spare time. At this time, I don't know what I want to do with a banquet and hospitality? General Xiao, just tell me what you think!"

Xiao Yan nodded and replied: "For example, the princes of all walks of life today support their own troops, disobey the imperial court decrees, and exploit and oppress the local people, indiscriminately levy harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and are extremely corrupt. Nowadays, there are strong soldiers of the Northern Wei Dynasty outside, and there are heroes from all walks of life fighting like tigers, people's hearts are uneasy, and the world is changing. The local heroes are doing their own thing, which will surely lay the root of the chaos in the world, and it is related to the fortunes of the great Qi and should be taken seriously!"

Princess Wukang sighed and said: "What General Xiao said is extremely true, as the saying goes, if you hold the power of life and death for a long time, you will have the heart to control the world." The division of the heroes, the chaos in the world, the starvation of the people, the control of the upper class, and the self-respect of the army, are really a big trouble for the court. Now that the great powers are waiting, the heart of destroying our great qi will not die, and if they want to win a place in the battle for the world, they should change the law and strengthen the army. The internal troubles are worse than the external troubles, and the outside must first be settled, so go and see what kind of medicine is sold in General Wang's gourd, and General Xiao has an invitation to pay respects, so it would be rude if he didn't go. The identity of this princess is still not suitable for publicity, so let's do it cheaply as a portable scholar!"

Xiao Yan retreated respectfully and said, "Obey the princess's instructions." ”

When Li Ji heard the conversation between Xiao Yan and Princess Wukang, his heart was shocked, and he secretly thought: "Although Princess Wukang is rude and willful, she has served the emperor all the year round. Wang Jing is in great power, he has been entrenched in one side for a long time, his power is all over the north and south of the river, and his tail is too big to fall, and sooner or later he will become a thorn in the side of the imperial court, but how difficult it is to shake his foundation! Moreover, there are many eyeliners in the imperial court that he secretly deployed, not to mention that Yu Nizi is also the mastermind behind the scenes that he sent to the palace. Wouldn't it be nice to take this opportunity to meet with you!"

I don't know how long it took to walk, but the carriage slowed down.

Li Ji lifted the car curtain, the sky was slightly dark, looked around, only to see that the drunken fairy building is located in the middle of the most prosperous West Street in Yangxian, looking all the way from the street, the shops are lined up, the crowds are crowded, the eyes flow, suddenly see a high-rise building.

The building is fifteen zhang high, divided into three floors, there are five corners, and a big red lantern is hung at the tip of each corner, and the fluorescent flow color.

The roof is bordered by green glazed tiles, and the body of the building is made of beige bricks and gray-white marble, and there are detailed patterns carved on it.

Looking at the drunken incense building from a distance, it looks like a giant standing in the eaves of the building, which is particularly conspicuous.

When he got closer, he felt majestic and luxurious.

There are three floors in the drunken fairy building, the top floor has a wide view, the whole city has an unobstructed view, it is undoubtedly a place for the most distinguished guests to drink and talk, and the people sitting here are often the nobles who spend a lot of money.

Zuixianlou is the most prestigious and luxurious restaurant in Yangxian, and it is certainly not something that ordinary civilians can afford, but there is an endless stream of guests who come every day.

Today, however, there seems to be an exception, and the entire building is not a single person.

There was a commotion, and three people came to the door of the drunken incense building, and at a glance they knew that they were businessmen, with big bellies and poop, wearing gold and silver.

The person in the lead was even more fat-headed and big-eared, his eyes were squeezed by the flesh on his face to only a slit, and the flesh on his stomach was swaying.

The fat rich businessman led by him glanced at it, frowned slightly, and shouted: "Why is there no one in the Drunken Immortal Building today?"

At this time, the two subordinates standing at the door of the restaurant greeted them and said, "Three guest officers, please go back, the Zuixian Building does not accept foreign guests today." ”

"What? Why?

"No, no reason, I'm really sorry, please come back another day. ”

"Are you bullying people, don't you see that you don't have any money on you? Tell you, there is no shortage of money on you, it's really unreasonable!" The fat and rich businessman in the lead was quite annoyed, and with a bit of alcohol, he pushed and shoved and tried to break in.

Suddenly, a white light lit up, and more than a dozen officers appeared at the door, all of them brushed up their swords and crossed in front of the three rich businessmen: "Take a step further, and you will be asked to wait for the heads to fall to the ground!"

When the three of them saw this, they were so frightened that they didn't want to drink at all, hugged their heads and ran away.

The officer led by the leader came straight to Xiao Yan's iron cavalry and said, "General Xiao, General Wang has been waiting on the top floor for a long time, everyone, please." ”

So, under the guidance of this officer, Xiao Yan, Li Ji, Yu Baoqing, Xi'er, Princess Wukang, Tian Anqi, Zhikong and others entered the Zuixian Tower, and the rest of the people were secretly fortified and set up sentry posts around the Zuixian Tower.

When the group came to the top floor, they saw that the seats were full of people, including civil and military officials at all levels, literati, and heroes of various factions in the rivers and lakes, about 100 people, and the crowd was full of voices and was very lively.

As soon as Xiao Yan went upstairs, he saw Wang Jingze, a hussar general with a beard on his face, sitting upright in front of the table, smiling heartily, and clasping his fists in the air and saying, "Brother Xiao, don't come unharmed!"

Xiao Yan also clasped his fists and saluted: "The last general, Xiao Yan, see General Wang!"

Wang Jing stood up suddenly, held Xiao Yan's wrists and said, "Brother Xiao, why be polite. You are a general of the Gyeonggi Praetorian Guard, directly under the command of Your Majesty, and you are a minister of Your Majesty, and you are highly respected. It's a great honor for you to come tonight!"

Xiao Yan said: "The last general was brave and brought some friends from the rivers and lakes to the banquet, and General Wang should not be surprised." ”

Wang Jingze patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "The family doesn't talk about two families, Brother Xiao's friend is my friend Wang Jingze, besides, today is the World Heroes Club, people of insight in the world can participate, please feel free, no need to be polite!"

As soon as everyone sat down, at this time, they saw a ball of fireworks blooming from the sky above the drunken fairy tower, and the hall was immediately full of applause, and the hero banquet had begun.

Wang Jing stood up, raised his glass and said: "The heroes of the world, gathered here, Wang is not talented, thanks to your love, I specially prepare a banquet here, coarse tea and light rice, the banquet is disrespectful, the banquet is not right, there are many incomplete, please forgive me, I hope you will take this opportunity to discuss the reappearance of the rivers and lakes......

When Li Ji heard this, he was suddenly startled, and secretly said: "Wang Jing is holding a hero meeting here with great fanfare, and the original purpose is to make a fortune. Could it be that I have a scroll of wind and clouds that he knows?"

Thinking about it, he looked around, but when he saw that the sword was dazzling, he couldn't help but be scared for a while, and he didn't have the heart to listen to what Wang Jingze said later.

Yu Baoqing quietly pushed Li Ji with his elbow and said, "Little brother, you have started to move your chopsticks, what are you doing stupidly?"

Hearing this, Li Jifang withdrew a trace of uneasiness, licked his tongue and said secretly: "No matter what, let's wait and see what happens for the time being!"

Yu Baoqing didn't pay attention to what Wang Jingze said and everyone's strange eyes, he was already hungry, and he had never seen such a sumptuous food, and he had already gobbled it up with his pounding heart.

Bursts of melodious music circled the beams in the hall, and more than a dozen costumed Loulan singers were like stars and moons supporting an alien beauty who led the dance!

But seeing that the leading dancer's waist is as soft as water, his eyes are as bright as stars, and his long water sleeves are fluttering, he is as moving as a goddess descending from heaven, and the dance is even more beautiful!

And the noisy guests gradually quieted down.

I saw a woman in a royal blue gown approaching, her long hair hanging low, her clothes lightly trimmed, and she sat elegantly in front of the piano.

The blue gauze woman's red lips opened lightly, her teeth were slightly exposed, and she said to the guests in the Drunken Immortal Building with a smile.

"The song that Dongmei played for you today was accidentally heard chanting on the bank of the Qinhuai River not long ago, called 'Chang Closed Chapter', everyone, Dongmei is ugly. ”

After speaking, I saw her onion-like ten fingers caressing the strings, and the palace merchants in the strings were scattered, noisy and cut, poignant and graceful, and the notes filled the entire Yanyu Building like jade beads rolling down the jade plate.

She sang slowly, suppressed and raised, as if she was in another world, and made the powerful people and characters of all factions in the rivers and lakes fascinated.

The banquet is at the peak of life, at this time the music is suddenly like the sound of rain, and the dance steps of the dancers are also rapid, and the sleeve wind even drives the green smoke of the incense burner, which is immediately blown away before it has time to rise.

The sound of drums and drums again, the lead dancer raised her legs and swirled, and the skirt bloomed with her straight legs like a flower, which made people dizzy to watch.

Li Ji said secretly: "General Xiao's 'Chapter' in the palace is magnificent, ambitious, and brilliant, and the rhetoric is gorgeous. Heaven and earth, the most prosperous is here, everywhere whitewashed the prosperity of the peace. How many powerful people talk about wine, the lights are bright, take off their hats and get drunk in the green building, but the poor people outside are hungry and cold, and there are frozen bones on the road, which can't help but make people sigh. ”

When the wine was half-drunk, a young man with a rather handsome appearance proposed: "General Wang, today is so Yaxing, why don't you dance the sword to help the fun, Zuo Ziqing is willing to sacrifice ugliness." ”

Wang Jing applauded and smiled: "Zuo Ziqing is a high-ranking disciple of Wang Xiao of Huaxia, and he has the true inheritance of the 'Wind Sword Technique', he is young and promising, and his swordsmanship is exquisite. Since he was put into the command of Wang, he has not yet seen this swordsmanship, and if he looks at it now, he is really fortunate to have three lives. ”

I saw Zuo Ziqing standing in the middle of the hall, bowing to everyone, and then dancing the sword in his hand, the sword is like frost and snow, the body is silver, the long sword is like a mang, and the qi runs through the rainbow.

Although the sword aura is fierce, it does not affect his gentle and jade-like temperament at all, just like the most tranquil lake, the moment the breeze blows, it is just more and more clear, and the wind and moon are quiet.

The sword qi seemed to be given life, wandering freely around him, bringing up his clothes and fluttering, not getting dusty, light as a cloud, and instantly giving people an illusion: as if he was dancing the sword like this, he wanted to ride the wind and go back.

Li Ji saw that the sword danced by this handsome young man was like dancing, although the body was elegant, but it was not masculine, and it was far from the practice that Xiao Feng, the king of Huaxia, practiced in the palace that night, and couldn't help but laugh "sneer", he immediately knew the gaffe, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to cover his mouth.

Zuo Ziqing suddenly turned his eyes, looked at the table where Li Ji was sitting, and said: "Little brother, in the 'Wind Sword Technique' that I practiced just now, this little brother seems to be quite unimpressed, so please give some advice? General Xiao is a genius of the world, and there are no weak soldiers under a strong general, so I expect that your swordsmanship must be extremely superb." ”
