The king of Shu sent a carriage to pick up people, and the carriage slowly passed towards the magnificent palace, and the city gate was garrisoned by the forbidden army.

The palace of the palace is majestic and magnificent, the pattern design is solemn, the banquet is set in the "Prayer Heaven Pavilion", Lu Kai can see that the king of Shu is setting up a private banquet, and there must not be many officials for the private banquet.

The carriage stopped at the foot of the Qitian Pavilion, and Lu Kai got out of the car and saw Chang Yue, Chang Yue didn't know if he was waiting for him or if he was sent by the King of Shu to wait, no matter what the reason was, he had to come forward to be polite.

Walking up the long steps, Chang Yue said in a low voice, "If you want to go out of the city, don't make trouble, you will answer the king's questions, and you can get out of the city safely if you deal with it properly."

Chang Yue's kind advice is not to forget what Lu Kai has done, after all, people are about to leave the city, they must always leave a good impression, and they should not mention anything they have doubts.

Lu Kai knew that at least half of Chang Yue's advice was sincere, and he remembered that one day he would turn his face with him, and sighed helplessly in his heart.

Lu Kai smiled and said, "Remember the Taishi's advice" As soon as the words fell, a long laugh came to his ears, and Lu Kai looked back and saw that it was Cheng Minghu who came.

Cheng Minghu's scorching eyes fell on Lu Kai, and he smiled, "The envoy has a merit in sending peace books, and this return to the dynasty will definitely be reused by King Wei, and the prosperity is just around the corner, although the time to get along is not much, it can be seen that the envoy is a great talent"

Seeing that Lu Kai was going to leave Cheng Minghu was happy, he praised a few words casually, of course Lu Kai knew whether this praise was sincere or fake, no matter which two parties knew it, Lu Kai would also say with a humble smile and "borrow the prime minister's auspicious words"

Cheng Minghu made a request, three people entered, there is a chief in the cabinet, the chief belongs to the king of Shu, there are four seats on the left and right of the chief stage, two palace maids stand next to each seat, and the four seats are four people, Lu Kai breathed a sigh of relief, and it was naturally easier to deal with so many people.

As soon as the three of them entered the table, Fang Wenhou arrived, Lu Kai Chang Yue was in the second seat on the left, Cheng Minghu Fang Wenhou was in the second seat on the right, and Chang Yue was not on the side of Fang Wenhou in order to avoid suspicion.

Cheng Minghu saw what Chang Yue's move meant, and the other party Wen Hou smiled and said, "It's good that General Fang is back, and the city defense of Bei'an is safe."

Fang Wenhou said politely to Cheng Minghu, "The king trusts him, and he will do his best"

Cheng Minghu glanced at Chang Yue and said deliberately to Fang Wenhou, "The Northern Shu hussars have repeatedly made war exploits, and the enemy has been terrified in the frontier, which has greatly shocked the prestige of our country, and it is really a blessing for Beishu to have such a good general, and I want to be closer to the general if I have the opportunity."

Fang Wenhou secretly screamed, he was so blatant in front of Chang Yue, it was both direct and scary, Fang Wenhou secretly glanced at Chang Yue, Chang Yue turned a deaf ear, but Chang Yue was not deaf, how could he not hear.

Fang Wenhou smiled slightly and did not reply.

Lu Kai glanced at the seat of the King of Shu who had not yet arrived, and thought, "Is it the King of Shu who deliberately arranged for Cheng Minghu to divide Fang Wenhou Changyue?" Lu Kai didn't have an answer, only heard the voice of the chamberlain from outside the pavilion, "The king has arrived!" ”

The four of them buckled up to greet him, and Zhao Zong's tone was thick and he smiled and said, "Let's get up"

The three of them said in unison, "Thank you, Your Majesty"

Lu Kai said, "Thank you, King Shu"

Lu Kai got up with Chang Yue and the rest of the people to look up, and just happened to make direct contact with Zhao Zong's gaze.

Zhao Zong, the king of Shu, is more than forty years old, tall and thin, fair-skinned, full of elegant eyes, Lu Kai has never seen Zhao Zong, and now he feels that Zhao Zong is more like a scholar of Wenxiu, not like a monarch with full eyes and extraordinary spirit.

Zhao Zong has such a scholarly appearance, and it is not surprising that he ascended the throne directly from the youngest prince, Lu Kai thought, "If I have such a polite brother, I will not guard against him"

Zhao Zong saw that Lu Kai was far more popular than ordinary people, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and the corners of his lips showed a gentle smile and said, "The festival envoy can become an extraordinary thing, it must be an extraordinary person, and the delivery of the book did not disappoint the King of Wei, and at the same time, it did not disappoint Lone."

Zhao Zong's tone was very kind, and his voice was very comfortable in his ears, and Lu Kai looked very comfortable.

Chang Yue and Cheng Minghu exchanged glances, and they didn't know what Zhao Zong's thoughts were in the few words of praise Lu Xingzhong.

Zhao Zong's gaze swept over everyone, and he said lightly: "Take a seat!" ”

Everyone came to the table one after another to stand up, and after Zhao Zong sat down and the guards stood up, and Chang Yue and Cheng Minghu took their seats, Fang Wenhou dared to sit down.

The last to sit down was Lu Kai, which was very decent, indicating that Jing Wei clearly did not exceed his identity.

The palace maid interspersed the banquet, adding wine and offering sweets to everyone, Zhao Zongdao "Talking about peace is about to arrive at the king of Wei Yueyu, talk about peace if you become lonely and have no regrets, make a cup!" ”

And they lifted up their wines.

Zhao Zong's gaze fell on Fang Wenhou, and he said in a slight voice, "General Fang"

"The minister is here," Fang Wenhou stood up and listened.

Zhao Zongdao "Lonely let the general take care of the envoy, but the envoy was repeatedly in danger, and he did not respect the envoy to make amends"

Zhao Zong spoke, Fang Wenhou didn't dare not listen to "yes"

Fang Wenhou raised his glass and did not sit at the table, Lu Kai stood up, respectfully leaned over and raised his glass to Fang Wenhou, Fang Wenhou apologized and said, "The guards are not good, please punish the envoy."

Fang Wenhou apologized funny, Lu Kai's face was respectful, but he said in his heart, "Punishment? Can the King of Shu spank you in the face? ”

Lu Kai defended Fang Wenhou and said, "The thief is cunning, and it is impossible to prevent it, but fortunately, the general is properly guarded, so that the general can ensure that the official is thorough, the general is not only without fault, but meritorious, and he is not in a hurry to be grateful, how can he be punished."

Lu Kai said this beautifully, Chang Yue's eyes were very approving, Cheng Minghu nodded with a smile, but his eyes were very cold, Zhao Zong was also satisfied when he heard Lu Kai say it so decently.

Fang Wenhou said, "Envoy please"

Lu Kaidao "General, please"

The two drank it all.

Zhao Zong asked, "How is the investigation of the assassins?" ”

As soon as Zhao Zong mentioned this, Lu Xingxing's head couldn't help but chuckle.

Fang Wenhou said truthfully, "I don't have a clue about the assassins"

Chang Yue was afraid that Zhao Zong would punish Fang Wenhou, so he answered, "Southern Wei and Northern Shu are talking about peace, and this matter is either done by Jing Yue or Western Sui."

Cheng Minghu looked for a conversation, and immediately said, "It won't be Jing Yue, the prince is a guest in Northern Shu, how dare they do this?"

Zhao Zong's eyes lit up and asked Cheng Minghu, "What does the prime minister mean, is the assassin from the Western Sui?" ”

Zhao Zong's question seemed to be asking about the assassin, and in Cheng Minghu's ears, this had a deeper meaning.

There is no need to mention that the envoy is about to leave the city, has it been traced that the assassin can't ask Fang Wenhou in private? Put it on the bright side, if there is no result, does it not mean that Beishu is incompetent? Why did Zhao Zong say such a thing that harmed the prestige of the country?

Cheng Minghu pondered for a moment and guessed Zhao Zong's intentions, and hurriedly said, "This matter is mostly related to the Western Sui, so you might as well send more people to pay attention to the trend."

Cheng Minghu replied like this to Zhao Zong's mind, Zhao Zong glanced at Cheng Minghu with satisfaction, Zhao Zong mentioned that the assassin was "leading" Some words need Cheng Minghu to reply before continuing, Lu Kai also used this trick on Zhang Zhongping, and at the beginning, he also introduced the topic of Cheng Weilian in the Pawn Bureau, and this kind of thing to guide the topic is not only Lu Kaihui, but Zhao Zong is one of the experts.

Zhao Zong successfully introduced the topic, and suddenly said unhappily, "Yes, this matter must be inseparable from the Western Sui, the Western Sui's move is really a wolf's ambition, fortunately, the heavens favor the security envoy to enter the city, and the assassination of the envoy is one of them, over the years, the Western Sui has frequently plotted against Beishu, and you can't let it go."

Zhao Zong's eyes fell on Lu Kai and asked, "In your opinion, if you want to capture the Western Sui, how many men and horses do you need?" ”

Fang Wenhou Changyue's eyes lit up at the same time, and now they understood that Zhao Zong's mention of assassins was false, and it was true that he wanted to use troops against Western Sui.

Fang Wenhou and Cheng Minghu looked at Lu Kai with a look of attention, to see if he had anything to say.

Lu Kai is now thinking about one more layer than Cheng Minghu and the others, if the Southern Wei and Northern Shu talk about peace, the next step is either to move the West Sui or Jing Yue, no matter which one is moved, the remaining one is like a dangerous egg.

Lu Kai didn't answer, Zhao Zong's topic turned blunt, presumably Lu Kai also heard it, Chang Yue laughed and said, "It's okay for the envoy to say it directly, there are no outsiders here"

The four words "no outsiders" are very interesting, Lu Kai smiled slightly and knew what Chang Yue's metaphor was, and after talking about peace, of course, the two dynasties were not outsiders, and they could even cooperate with each other.

Zhao Zong deliberately mentioned this matter to let Lu Kai go back and talk to King Wei, wondering if King Wei meant this, and at the same time telling King Wei that it is better to forget if he doesn't mention his father's affairs.

Lu Kai is now an envoy, and he can only be judged according to his identity, Lu Kai said his opinion: "It is not difficult to capture the Western Sui, Northern Shu and Southern Wei to send 400,000 troops to take it, but if you want to completely control it, even if you raise the strength of the two countries and the whole country, it may not be possible."

The 800,000 army still can't take the Western Sui? Everyone was stunned.
