Half a month later......

Chen's envoy had arrived in the capital, and the banquet was held as scheduled.

Qi Zhao is dressed today completely different from the past, tall and elegant figure. The clothes were of fine ice-blue silk, and the snow-white piping embroidered with the elegant bamboo leaf pattern and the mutton fat jade hairpin on his head complemented each other. He wore an inky satin robe with silver openwork hibiscus trim exposed.

I am used to seeing Qi Zhao's usual black clothes, but today he changed into ice blue clothes, lined with him like a handsome son who is as warm as jade, Qi Zhao is already good-looking, but he usually doesn't care much about his dress, so it doesn't look so amazing, but today is different, this dress can be said to have stolen the limelight of other well-dressed men, which provoked the ladies of the family who were present to blush and secretly look at him.

Qi Zhao didn't care about the sunshine of those people at all, he rubbed the hairpin hidden under his sleeve, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, this smile fascinated a group of people again. Fortunately, the eunuch said that the banquet had started in time, and those eyes were not so obvious.

The emperor, who sat at the top, said, "Welcome guests from afar and toast to the friendship between our two countries." After speaking, he drank all the wine in front of him, which made everyone present applaud, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively.

Then there were all kinds of polite words, either you praised me or I praised you, these words were too much, Qi Zhao ignored them, and immersed himself in his own world.

The emperor clapped his hands, and the hall suddenly burst into music.

A heart-stirring flute sound rises softly, the women dance in long sleeves, countless delicate petals gently fly between the heavens and the earth, and the refreshing fragrance of flowers is intoxicating. The hundred beauties had blooming buds, spreading out to the surroundings, and a beautiful girl in white appeared like a fairy in the hollow valley, with her light and graceful, fluttering like a fairy dance, the wide wide sleeves opened and closed to cover, but also set off her beautiful posture.

The girl has her right foot as the axis. Relax the long sleeves lightly, and the delicate body rotates with it, turning faster and faster. Suddenly it flew up from the ground. Hundreds of beauties gathered in a circle, waving their jade hands, dozens of blue ribbons fluttered out lightly, and blue waves seemed to be floating in the hall. Everyone watched her graceful dancing in fascination, almost forgetting to breathe.

Suddenly, the girl Jade Foot jumped into the air with a light water sleeve, and stabbed in the direction of the emperor with a knife, everyone screamed, but the guards next to the emperor escorted in time, and the girl was sent flying, who knew that the girl immediately rushed up desperately, the guards were entangled with the girl, and hundreds of dancing girls suddenly turned into a knife in everyone's hand, and seeing that the leader had made a move, the others also began their actions.

Qi Zhao suddenly stood up, pulled out the knife of the guard next to him and began to fight those people, and the hall kept falling corpses one after another, running and screaming, and the scene suddenly became chaotic. The Emperor was furious and shouted that the Assassins would die without a place to be buried.

Suddenly, Qi Zhao saw that there was an assassin behind Qianying who wanted to sneak attack, the knife stabbed straight at Qianying, Qi Zhao was startled, and immediately threw out the hairpin that had been kept in his hand, the hairpin collided with the knife, the knife was knocked away and the hairpin was broken, not caring about sadness, Qi Zhao solved the assassin in front of him and pulled out to Qianying's side, and said in Qianying's ear.

"Let's go, it's dangerous here."

Qian Ying turned her head to look at the man in front of her, Qi Zhao's gentle words kept echoing in her mind, and at that moment, Qian Ying really fell. A few seconds seemed to be slowed down to a century, and Qian Ying watched Qi Zhao leave, and immediately came back to her senses, obediently finding a place to hide.

After all, it was a rabble, and soon all the assassins were taken down.

The emperor was furious and insisted on finding out the mastermind behind the scenes, so that his life was worse than death. A good banquet was forced to stop because of this assassination, and the emperor apologized to the envoy of Chen and said that he would definitely give an explanation, but even so, the envoy of Chen was very angry and left.

Because of this incident, the emperor removed many people from their positions, and those who should be killed should be punished, and those who should be punished should be punished. And Qi Zhao was responsible for correcting the mastermind behind the scenes, and the emperor only gave Qi Zhao three days before throwing off his sleeves and leaving.

Qi Zhao rubbed his temples with a headache and resigned himself to investigate. Qi Zhao first came to the cell of Dali Temple, ordered the prison to open the door, Qi Zhao walked in, looked at the girl covered in blood in front of him, and suddenly sighed a little, not long ago she was still the most dazzling person, and now she ......

"Tell me, who's behind it." Qi Zhao asked. The girl didn't answer, she didn't move, if she hadn't looked at her body and could see a little amplitude, she would have thought she was dead.

Qi Zhao knew that this was the case, and left after saying a word.

"You should have a husband and a son." Suddenly, the girl moved, but unfortunately Qi Zhao had already left. Out of Dali Temple, Qi Zhao investigated one by one according to the clues, and finally determined who was the mastermind behind the scenes.

Qi Zhao reported the results of these days like the emperor and presented the evidence in his hand to the emperor. His face was solemn, and he paused word by word.

According to the minister's investigation, the woman was an orphan of the previous dynasty, she accidentally escaped the catastrophe, and then she has been secretly looking for the remnants of the previous dynasty, and has been planning for many years, and learned that this time there will be an envoy from Chen Guo, and specially prepared for this assassination. As for who revealed it, the minister has already written all the list on it. ”

Sure enough, as soon as Qi Zhao finished speaking, the emperor angrily tore the paper in his hand to shreds, as the emperor will never allow this to happen, not to mention that it is still under his nose, and what the emperor does next is none of his business.

Qi Zhao went out of the palace, came to the shop that customized the hairpin before, handed the broken hairpin in his hand to the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper took it and looked at it carefully, shook his head and said.

"Childe, this hairpin was originally handmade by the workers, and it was made of jade, how could it be repaired if it was broken."

After hearing this, Qi Zhao was shocked and asked anxiously.

"There's really nothing I can do." This hairpin was originally intended to be given to Lu Yunshu after the banquet, but there were unforeseen circumstances, and who knew that something would happen. It's also unlucky.

The shopkeeper sighed and shook his head, and returned the hairpin in his hand to Qi Zhao. Qi Zhao then asked: "Shopkeeper, in this case, can you re-customize a hairpin, I don't care about the money, as long as it can be customized." can make Qi Zhao say that sentence, how important this hairpin is to Qi Zhao.

"Childe, we have a rule on this, and customers can only order one jewelry in their lifetime, which is why our store has been open until now." After saying that, the shopkeeper left. Leave Qi Zhao with a hairpin.
