Even so, Ximen Hou still said to Lu Yu: "Although that woman is beautiful, as long as she is a man in Daliang, she wants to move her to the couch." But because of her complex and powerful backstage, I have never heard of anyone so lucky, and I have never even seen her beauty, so Brother Lu still needs to be careful in everything. ”

Lu Yuxin said Of course you don't know that I have seen her beauty, but he deliberately said: "Because of this, it is very exciting." ”

Ximen Hou said again: "It is certainly a great joy in life to be able to spend the Spring Festival with beauties, but Brother Lu still needs to remember that the king is the master." ”

This proved that Ximen Hou had suspected that Yu'er's backstage was also planning to win over Lu Yu, so he had to remind him. After all, the reputation of "Jiaolongxia" is already strong, and if he can stand out in the sword competition tonight and be appreciated by King Wei, the future will be limitless. For Xinlingjun, if such a talent cannot be accepted for his own use, he must be removed, so as not to become a trouble in the future.

Lu Yu didn't know what he meant. If he doesn't say anything, he will definitely report to Shin Lingjun. Anyway, he still has to rely on Xinling Jun at present, so he laughed and said: "The king is so important to the younger brother, and Brother Ximen takes care of the younger brother like a brother, of course I, Lu Yu, will not be ungrateful." ”

The two were about to go back, when King Xinling sent someone to find them.

As soon as he returned to the house, he saw Xinlingjun angrily scolding a servant girl. Lu Yu and Ximen Hou walked over and found some fragments on the ground, presumably because the maidservant had accidentally broken something, and it should be a relatively valuable item, which made Xinlingjun lose his temper.

Lu Yu persuaded: "Don't be angry, things are broken, and sticking back is not the original state, just let the subordinates be careful in the future." ”

How do you know that Xin Lingjun turned his head and still looked angry, and said as soon as he spoke: "What are you?" Benjun scolds the slave, and he wants you to teach him? ”

Then he was silent for a short while, probably feeling that his tone was too heavy, and said to Lu Yu: "Ben Jun was too angry for a while, Brother Lu don't blame Ben Jun for being a little heavier." ”

Lu Yu was kind enough to persuade him just now, but when he scolded him, his heart became nameless, and he swallowed this breath after hearing him say this. Then he asked, "What is it that was broken?" provoked such a big temper on the king. ”

Xinlingjun said: "South Korea's Zhang Xiangye gave Benjun four white jade bowls, and broke two for this cheap maid, and there is no heavy punishment It is already an amnesty, just a few words of scolding for Benjun, which is considered to be cultivated by this cheap maid for several lifetimes." As he spoke, he turned to the maidservant and scolded, "Do you know that people in the next world will not be able to afford these two bowls if they are cows and horses?" ”

Simon asked the maidservant, "What is your name?" ”

The maid was so frightened that she knelt on the ground and didn't dare to raise her head, and when she heard Ximen Hou ask, she didn't look up, but replied in a low voice: "The slave maid is called Xiaohuan." ”

Lu Yu hadn't heard her speak before, but when he heard her voice at this moment, his heart suddenly shook, and this voice seemed to have been heard somewhere.

Xin Lingjun snorted coldly, and said, "If it weren't for Brother Lu speaking for you, I wouldn't spare you today." Then he ordered the maidservant to clean up the debris on the ground, and called Lu and Ximen to the main hall.

Lu Yu looked back at the servant girl from time to time as he walked, and always felt that this person seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

In the main hall, Xinling Jun ordered his subordinates to hand over two sets of samurai uniforms, and said to Lu Yu and Ximen Hou: "One for each person, both of you represent Benjun tonight, and you can't let others compare anywhere." After a pause, he said, "Especially Long Yangjun's people." ”

The two thanked Xin Lingjun, the two sets of samurai uniforms are mainly red, Lu Yu's set is more than Ximen Hou's more Xuan pattern as decoration, and the clothes are made of high-quality fabrics, although Lu Yu is not expert in this material, but the samurai clothes are silky and smooth, and the workmanship is delicate, and modern craftsmanship is difficult to compare.

I only heard that Lingjun said to Lu Yu again: "If you play well in the first competition tonight, it will directly overshadow the light of Longyang Jun's 'First Swordsman of Great Wei', and as long as this Jun makes a statement to the king, everything will be realized according to our plan." ”

Lu Yu felt Ximen Hou's jealous eyes in the corner of his eyes.

If it weren't for him, the princess of Wei would have been escorting Ximen Hou on her trip to Handan, and when he left Chen County, Lu Yu had already noticed the unusual relationship between Ximen and the princess, but now because of Lu Yu's appearance, he replaced everything that originally "belonged" to Ximen Hou with himself, and everything was under Lu Yu's pressure, if he was replaced by himself, it would be strange if he was not jealous.

If it weren't for Xinling Jun, I'm afraid he would have already met Lu Yu.

Thinking of this, Lu Yu secretly screamed that it was not good. I didn't have any friends here, but now I'm making enemies everywhere.

At present, it is because Xinlingjun is trying his best to win him over, Ximen Hou has no choice but to endure living under himself, once he publicly states that he will not serve Xinlingjun, then he will be able to justifiably become his enemy.

And Jing Jie on Long Yangjun's side was already unfriendly to him, and he had to find a way to leave Xiao Zhengwen with him forever when he left Wei State, otherwise he could either give up Xiao Zhengwen, or he would not please both Xinlingjun and Longyangjun, which would be a very tricky matter.

Taking advantage of the fact that there was still some time in the afternoon, Lu Yu took the time to continue to study the "Yin Fu Seven Swords", wanting to study a little more skills to make up for his shortcomings in swordsmanship, and make final preparations for tonight's competition.

The Yanren Warrior would not be a strong opponent, and the only worry was that that day in the Drunken Orchid Fang, Long Yangjun forced Lu Yu to give up the killing move to kill Jing Jie with a sword, and was distracted to resist this sword.

To what extent is Long Yangjun's swordsmanship? If he proposes to fight himself tonight, he will surely lose.

If he is unlucky, he wants to fight against Long Yangjun, and if he chooses to abandon his sword and admit defeat, 'Jiao Longxia' will definitely be removed from the world. It's not to fight, it's not to fight.

Suddenly, a thought came to mind, and there was already a countermeasure to deal with the battle.

This is the first royal palace that Lu Yu came to in this Warring States Period. The Wei State originally took Anyi as its capital, then moved to Huanshui, and finally moved to Daliang. Lu Yu and Ximen Hou sat in the same carriage and entered the palace with Xinlingjun. I didn't go through the window to appreciate the grandeur of the Daliang Palace, but on the way to stop and walk, there were heavy guards at every gate, even if it was Xinlingjun's convoy, it had to pass the inspection, which showed that it was heavily guarded.

However, it may also be because there is a banquet in the palace tonight, and there may not be such a dense guard in normal times.

Lu Yu's limited ability to distinguish ancient texts is a flaw here. When you enter the door, the beams and pillars on both sides are carved, and the animals can distinguish them, but they can't read any of the words.

The three kingdoms of Zhao, Wei and Han originated from the Jin Kingdom, and their language families and characters should be relatively close; The Wei character structure is slender, similar to the orthodox used by Zhou. Lu Yu wanted to ask Ximen Hou beside him, but he was afraid that he would make fun of him because he didn't even recognize the words, so he simply ignored the surrounding buildings, and the lively princes and nobles also dazzled him.

Of course, the big seat in the center of the north of the hall is the royal seat of the King of Wei, and there are more than 50 seats on both sides, and it is divided into two seats before and after, and each seat can sit two people, forming a double "same" character shape. The more seats in the front, the higher the status, such as Xinlingjun and Longyangjun, each occupying the first seat in the front seat on the left and right, and the back seat is the family and the samurai with status.

The next step is lined up by the noble ministers and envoys of various countries in the royal family, even at the end of the table, although their identities are incomparable with the previous ones, they should all be figures with heads and faces in the Wei State. The spaciousness of the center of the main hall, like half a football field, provides enough space for tonight's sword competition.

Lu Yu was fortunate to sit behind Xinlingjun with Ximen Hou, and Xinlingjun sat with Zhu Hai. The guests entered the hall one after another, and sat down in their own banquets, and soon they were close to full.

Long Yangjun and the graceful princess Wei Mingji came to the scene, attracting the attention of all the guests, and many guests stood up to see. One is the male favorite of King Wei, with a "beauty" that eclipses the beauties of the palace; The other is the daughter of King Wei, bright and moving, gorgeous costumes with precious jewelry, and a jeweled body is the focus of the audience. The retinue of the two followed, and Jing Jie was among them. Long Yang and the princess sat at the same table. The princess's eyes swept over, looked at the Xinling Junxi, and found Lu Yu in the back seat, and her delicate body trembled slightly.

Lu Yu thought to herself that she should know that she had her own appearance at tonight's banquet, why did she still show such an "unexpected" action.

Just thinking about it, the princess of Wei had already gotten up to greet her, greeted Xinlingjun, and said a few polite words, and finally her beautiful eyes stayed on Lu Yu, and said coquettishly: "Farewell to Longpo, this palace has not personally thanked Lu Ye, meet again today, Lu Ye is angry, and it is better than the previous mile." ”

Lu Yu saw that a look of jealousy flashed in Ximen Hou's eyes, so he stood up and saluted the princess, coughed dryly and laughed: "Compared with Brother Ximen's credit, I have very little credit, and it is my duty to protect the princess, so why worry about it." ”

Ximen Hou hurriedly stood up and said: "Brother Lu said that he laughed, if there was no Brother Lu that day, how would the villain escort the princess to Xiangling safely?" ”

Xin Lingjun interjected: "Both of them have merit, there is no need to shirk here, having such talents as you two is really a blessing for my Great Wei." ”

A crisp brass bell rang, reminding everyone to take their seats. At this time, all the guests had arrived, and when they heard the bell, everyone sat down in their seats, and the original noise slowly turned into each other.

The bell rang again, and then two loud bells rang from both sides of the main hall, and Lu Yu noticed that there were a set of large and small chimes placed on each side of the middle of the main hall, and the number of each set was hundreds of dozens of pieces. Next to the chimes are two musicians, who are responsible for striking the music.

Everyone looked towards the door, and saw a group of more than a dozen people singing and playing with the music of the chimes in the hall, while walking neatly and lightly, divided into two teams from the door, until they walked to the chimes.

Lu Yu was extremely shocked in his heart, thinking that this was probably the style of the prince.

You don't have to guess to know that the next person to appear is King Wei, who walked into the main hall surrounded by concubines and dozens of close guards. Lu Yu knew that the monarch of the Wei State, King An Li, was the sixth monarch of the Wei State, but his life style was chaotic, not only did men and women eat it, but the relationship with Longyang Jun made him "famous in history", and the death of Xinling Jun was also related to King An Li's jealousy.

In the main hall, except for the sound of musical instruments, there was no sound of conversation, and everyone knelt on the ground one after another, waiting for King Wei to take his seat.

The guards were divided into three groups, one group followed the King of Wei to the chairman, and the other two groups were also scattered to stand guard behind the banquets on both sides of the main hall.

Stop.

The crowd shouted, "Blessed be the king!" ”

After King Wei sat down in the seat, his tone was flat but everyone could hear it: "All the ministers are seated. ”
