Chapter XXVIII
Feng Yewu looked at the list in his hand, and for a while, his heart was even more upside down, indescribable.
Lu Jue waited silently for Feng Yewu to finish reading the roster in his hand before he continued.
"Your Majesty, although this time I captured many of Penglai Pavilion's subordinates and also captured this list, but I didn't find a trace of King Pingyi."
Hearing Lu Jue's words, Feng Yewu reacted at this time, there were many names on the list in his hand, and he really didn't level the king.
"It seems that the Lone King still underestimated the King of Pingyi. He's hiding deep enough. ”
Feng Yewu threw the list on the table on the side, thinking thoughtfully.
For a moment, the entire dormitory fell silent again.
"Your Majesty, the time for your banquet is approaching, you see ......"
Just as everyone was deep in thought, the voice of Mingde's father-in-law outside the dormitory came in, interrupting the tranquility in the dormitory.
"You go ahead and arrange it. Then the Lone King went. ”
Feng Yewu dismissed Mingde's father-in-law, and then got up and walked towards the back of the dormitory.
"Put this matter aside for the time being, the Lone King has other arrangements tonight."
Mingde's father-in-law Li spoke, Feng Yewu walked halfway, stopped, and turned to Lu Jue.
"Now the vassal kings of various places have returned with their own ghosts because of the affairs of the court. Since this matter is entangled with many vassal kings, at tonight's dinner, King Gu naturally wants to look at their faces. ”
After Feng Yewu finished speaking, there was a sneer on the corner of her mouth, and then she turned around and left.
"Go down, Hanyue will change the clothes of the Lone King."
Lu Jue withdrew from the dormitory after receiving the order, and Han Yue hurriedly stepped forward.
Feng Yewu's dinner party invited many vassal kings, and the preparation of this dinner party naturally cannot be unconventional.
What's more, at the previous banquet, because of the assassin's matter, the entire palace was panicked, and this time at the banquet, Feng Yewu said something seemingly ordinary.
But for the people below, it is a tight battle.
The entire palace has entered a stern state of haste since Feng Yewu spoke.
This is also why Lu Jue needs Feng Yewu's personal instructions to be able to bring the prisoner into the palace for interrogation.
Although Feng Yewu ordered a banquet for the vassal kings who returned halfway from all over the country, it was natural for officials at all levels in the court to be present.
This banquet is a wedding banquet, according to the traditional regulations.
The ministers of the DPRK and the central government, and those in important official positions, even need to go with a female dependent.
The prosperity of this banquet can be imagined.
Just when the big and small people in the whole Kyoto were busy arranging the dress for the dinner party and their families, the Pingyi Royal Mansion at this moment was also busy.
It's just that at this moment, the King of Pingyi stayed alone in the study.
"Lord Wang, I have already sent someone to arrange the clothes for this night's banquet, see if you can change them for you first."
The lady of the King of Pingyi came to the outside of the study, knocked lightly on the door, and asked inside.
After all, she didn't know anything about the King of Pingyi, but when she came back from the return trip, she could see something on the face of the King of Pingyi.
So he didn't dare to bother, but asked softly.
"Okay, I see, you can go and do something else."
After all, participating in a banquet is not simply about dressing.
The feudal kings and nobles from all over the country, as well as the important ministers of the imperial court, participated in the banquet held in Fengyewu, and expensive gifts were also indispensable.
Therefore, Mrs. Pingyi Wang has a lot of other things to be busy with in the future, and after hearing the words of King Pingyi, Mrs. Pingyi Wang agreed here and went to beckon her subordinates to prepare something else.
When the people outside the study left, King Pingyi looked at the screen in the study with a gloomy face, and said in a deep voice:
"There's no one left, you come out."
It turned out that there were other people hiding in the study, but this study was located in the corner of the entire palace.
On weekdays, it is difficult to get any sunlight in this study, and there are few doors and windows, so in the study at the moment, there is only a little sunlight shining in from the side of the door.
At this moment, whether the King of Pingyi lit any candles or not, naturally ordinary people would not notice that there were other people in this room.
Hearing the voice of the King of Pingyi, I saw a woman walk in very cautiously from behind the screen in the study.
"The prince knows I'm coming?"
It turned out that the woman who walked out from behind the screen was the Penglai Pavilion master who escaped from Feng Yewu's cronies, Zhao Xiyan.
"Hmph, now the news of the arrest of the entire Kyoto Nagakufang has been spread, and I already knew about it on the way back to Kyoto."
After King Pingyi saw that it was Zhao Xiyan, his face was obviously a little displeased.
At the moment, it can be seen from Feng Yewu's means of sending people to arrest Le Fang that most of them have also been leaked at this time, and he and the others have already taken a certain risk when they return to Kyoto this time, and this Zhao Xiyan actually came to find him at this time.
"Don't worry, I confirmed that there is no tail, so I came."
Zhao Xiyan was so smart, through the dim light of the study, he also clearly noticed the expression of King Pingyi.
Naturally, he also guessed the Pingyi King's worries, so before the Pingyi King could speak, he took the lead in speaking out.
"Hmph, I hope it's as you say. Otherwise, both you and I will be in danger of our lives. ”
King Pingyi naturally knew in his heart that he had not left any clues in the music square.
It's just that the matter of Penglai Pavilion is already a big rebellion, and it has surfaced with Penglai Pavilion.
In the future, every step must be cautious, otherwise if there is any accident, Feng Yewu will put him to death.
"Do you know what went wrong this time?"
King Pingyi walked over to the chair on the side of the study and did it. looked at Zhao Xiyan, who seemed to be injured, with cold eyes, and asked.
"Back to the prince, those officers and soldiers came in a hurry, and they seemed to be prepared. We haven't heard anything from us before. ”
Zhao Xiyan endured the discomfort of his body, his eyes hesitated slightly, and slowly looked away.
This time it was really sudden, and they had been in frequent contact with the officials in Kyoto for a long time.
Although the goal is too big, this is also the purpose of their hiding in an entertainment place like Le Fang, and they will always be aware of the slightest disturbance in Kyoto and in the court.
This is also the means by which they have been able to sign up until now.
"This time, it happened too suddenly, and Feng Yewu almost even retreated from the court, and we were surrounded by officers and soldiers. There was no time for anyone to give us a message. ”
Hearing Zhao Xiyan's words, King Pingyi's eyes shrank slightly, isn't this arrangement just to hide people's eyes and ears and prevent someone from ventilating the news?
