Xiong Wan and Wei Wuji came to the palace of the king of Chu in a carriage, and Huang Xie was already waiting there respectfully.

The young king of Chu stepped on the back of the waiter, got out of the carriage supported by Huang Xie, turned his head and looked, huh? Where did the carriage go?

Xiong Wan waved his hand to beckon Jingyang to the front, and after asking, he learned that Chen Zheng and the others were picked up by Uncle Wang's people halfway.

"How can this be true? Even if Uncle Wang sent someone to pick up Mr. Lu Gongzi and Mr. Zou Zi, he had to inform this king, how to hide it from this king? ”

Jingyang knelt there with his head bowed, his eyes turned around a few times, but he was silent.

Wei Wuji seemed to sense something, and hurriedly asked Huang Xie, "Chun Shenjun, did you send Uncle Wang back to the house?" ”

Huang Xie recalled innocently: "The old man sent Uncle Wang back to the mansion on the order of the King of Chu, and after some kind words of relief, Uncle Wang was also remorseful. In order to make amends to the king of Chu, Uncle Wang took out more than a dozen jars of good wine that had been treasured for many years from the mansion, taught the old man to go back to the palace to prepare the banquet first, and also sent someone to ask General Jingyang to escort the king of Chu. How did you pick up Brother Lu and Mr. Zou Zi halfway? ”

Wei Wuji leaned into Xiong Wan's ear and whispered, Xiong Wan's face suddenly became cloudy, and then he shouted to Jing Yang: "Hurry up to Uncle Wang's mansion, and you will definitely bring Lu Gongzi and Mr. Zou Zi, oh yes, and that Xu Fu into the palace." If Mr. Lu Gongzi and Mr. Zou Zi are missing a hair, you will come to see you! ”

At this time, Huang Xie also felt a trace of panic, thinking of Zilan's smiling old face, he couldn't help but shiver a few times in his heart.

Xiong Wan looked at Jingyang who turned over and got on the horse, a trace of doubt drifted through his heart, and he thought, this guy has a very good relationship with Uncle Wang Zilan on weekdays, and he will get together to drink and talk about it if he has nothing to do, but today's matter is very strange, I am afraid that it is not as simple as expected.

Huang Xie saw Xiong Wan's thoughts, took the initiative to ask Ying, got into the carriage and went all the way with Jingyang.

When they came to Zilan's mansion, several gatekeepers nodded and said that Uncle Wang had entered the palace for a banquet.

Huang Xie was so angry that he stomped his feet and scolded repeatedly: "Uncle Wang didn't know if he entered the palace to feast the old man?!" After the old man left, did anyone come in a carriage? Say! ”

Several goalkeepers turned from nodding to shaking their heads.

"Give it all to Lao Tzu to flash aside!" Huang Xie raised his sleeves and pushed a few goalkeepers aside, beckoning Jingyang to break in.

After working for more than an hour, Huang Xie shouted while looking for it, and almost opened all the mouse holes in Zilan Mansion to see what was going on, but he didn't find any clues.

Zilan's family gathered in the courtyard, all of them innocent and funny.

A strange smile appeared on Jing Yang's face, but unfortunately Huang Xie swept it right with the corner of his eye, it seems that Zilan and Jing Yang are colluding to do something.

Huang Xie's brain spun rapidly, and it seemed that ensuring the safety of King Chu and himself first was more important and urgent than looking for Brother Lu and Mr. Zou Zi.

"Old General Jing, people are not seen in your hands, if something happens to Mr. Lu Gongzi and Mr. Zou Zi, I am afraid that the old general will not be able to get rid of it. According to the old man's opinion, the general might as well take someone to search carefully in the city, and the old man should go back to the palace first, so that the king of Chu can have an idea. Huang Xie stood outside Zilan Mansion and looked at Jingyang with a sincere face.

Jingyang is not a vegetarian either, thinking to himself, the old guy still wants to send the old man outside the palace, in case this Chun Shenjun pours himself a bucket of eye drops in the ear of the King of Chu, how can he still swing back and forth between Xiong Wan and Zilan?! The more lively the two groups of Chu and Uncle Wang fought, the more stable their position became, even if one side defeated the other, they had to quickly have an intimate hug with the victorious side, and then make up for a few more knives on the dying loser.

In the process of power struggle, regardless of whether you are a war of public opinion or a war of words, or whether you are a Chenqiao Mutiny or a Xuanwumen Mutiny, what is inseparable from the changes is that the winner is always the one who hides the deepest, and the one who makes the most stable, ruthless and accurate shots. Those who flaunted their might and bluffed ended up dying in the hands of those who pretended to be stupid and silent, and those who held a domestic sudden strafing shot ended up dying in a scope hidden in a corner.

Those who jump and scream at the touch of a button, praise him for a few words and dance with their eyebrows, and lift the table when they say two words about him, are actually insignificant and inconsequential people. The most terrible person in this world is that he can be calm and quiet at any time, you never know what he is thinking, what you see in this kind of person is not what you see with your eyes, but what people want you to see you can see, how much you want to see you can see, you can see as much as you don't want you to see, you never see what you don't want to see, or in other words, by the time you see it is already too late.

There are many smart people in this world, but the fastest and worst deaths are these smart people who are well-behaved and clever, and can speak freely. In fact, anyone who thinks they are smart can be classified as fools, and people can see that smart people can be classified as fools. Thousands of years in the past tell the future that those who are extremely smart will have their homes raided, beheaded, and exterminated in the end. The answer lies in those who laugh to the end and cry to the end.

In the wine glass of a smart person, it is better to put a little stupid, a little stupid, you need to know, people who are real everywhere at all times take advantage of morality, make people impeccable, and people who can suffer a little loss to people and things instead take the opportunity and make people unable to resist, so that even if they can't become a peerless master in ten thousand, they will not always be smart but be clever and mistaken, and be smashed to pieces by the palm that fell from the sky.

Jingyang is not only a bold person who can fight and drink, but also knows a little bit about not being proficient in political games, and at the critical moment when Wang Shuzilan is about to have a showdown with the king of Chu, the closer he is to the center, the safer he is, and the more he is out of the center, the more dangerous it is.

Chun Shenjun laughed, now that the old man has no soldiers around him, how can he lead people to find it? Besides, without the king's order, how dare the old man lead people to fight in the city? ”

Huang Xie was stunned for a moment, why did Jingyang, who nods his head and bows his head in front of the King of Chu and himself on weekdays, speak softly and rigidly at this time, and hide needles in the cotton? But in the face of Jingyang's rhetorical question, he couldn't think of a way to deal with it for a while, and an inexplicable sense of panic drove Huang Xie to jump into the carriage and let Jingyang follow him all the way.

Back outside the palace of the King of Chu, Huang Xie trotted all the way to the palace, and the soldiers of the State of Chu guarding the palace gate had never seen Chun Shenjun so flustered, all of them were stunned and looked at each other.

Walking through the wide square and stepping up the steps of the main hall, Huang Xie, who was covered with sweat, slipped and fell under his feet, his straight body was close to the steps, and after dropping seven or eight meters in an instant, the friction overcame the strong gravity. Only one shoe was still enjoying the thrill of speed skating, and after a flying kiss with the other shoe on Huang Xie's feet, he continued to jump on the steps, and finally landed firmly at the beginning of the steps of the main hall.

This Chun Shenjun stood up in a push-up, endured the sharp pain from the joints on his body, pretended to be calm and straightened the crown of hair on his head, coughed lightly, and turned his face to look at the palace guards standing on both sides of the steps.

The guards standing on either side with halberds in their hands all blushed, some dozing off with drooping eyelids, and some looking up at the sky and thinking about things, as if they were blind to what had just happened in front of them.

Then Jingyang came to the front of the steps of the main hall, leaned over and picked up the shoes that had fallen on the ground and longed for freedom, a sour and sour, very naughty smell passed through Jingyang's sensitive olfactory nerves, Dao lightning flashed frequently in Jingyang's brain cells, and a black mushroom cloud rose above Jingyang's head, the battle-hardened veteran general shook a few times in the successive shocks of the nuclear bomb, until he forcibly closed the two air intakes with his fingers, and the world that was spinning gradually returned to calm.

Jing Yang pinched his nose with one hand and carried the little boy nicknamed Fat Man with the other, and after approaching the bomb drop point, he threw out a parabola with a swaying movement.

Huang Xie turned around and looked, oops? It's amazing! can stand tall in front of the old man's shoes, Jingyang can be counted as one.

"Hahahaha... Hahahaha..."

Suddenly, there was a faint laughter from the top of the steps, Huang Xie hurriedly put on his shoes, limped up the stairs, and stepped into the palace hall with a wide courtyard.

As soon as he entered, Huang Xie instantly froze on the spot.

Jing Yang, who had just handed over the sword to the guards outside the palace, was very puzzled by Huang Xie's abnormal reaction, and after raising his eyes to look around, he also turned into a wax figure.

In the main hall, Xiong Wan, the king of Chu, sat in the center, and Zilan and Wei Wuji sat on one side of the lower place, and Chen Zheng and Zou Yan sat on the other side. I saw Zilan sitting there like a pins and needles, wiping the beads of sweat rolling down her cheeks with her sleeves from time to time, while Xiong Wan, Wei Wuji, Chen Zheng and Zou Yan were talking and laughing, and the unfinished smiles were still on their faces.

Xiong Wan waved his hand and beckoned the two wax figures in the main hall, and said easily: "Chun Shenjun and General Jingyang came just in time, don't sit down quickly, this king has something good to report to the two." ”

After Huang Xie and Jing Yang finished saluting the King of Chu, they sat on both sides.

Chen Zheng turned his face to look at Huang Xie and said with a smile: "Why is Chun Shenjun so flustered, and he can't walk easily?" ”

“……”

Jingyang suddenly said, "Why is that disciple of Mr. Zou Zi not here?" ”

Chen Zheng smiled: "General Jing is really a worrying person. The capital of Chu is so prosperous and lively, how can people be in the mood to sit here and spend time with us?! ”

Jingyang thought that Xu Fu had been shot by Zilan and thrown into a mass grave, even Lu Buwei and Zou Yan, who were sitting opposite, were also doomed, but the scene in front of him seemed so unreal? ! Turning his head to look at Zilan again, in addition to wiping her sweat vigorously, where did the arrogant panache go?!

Xiong Wan raised the wine bottle on the table in front of him, and said with a happy face: "I'm waiting here to drink, how can I waste my time?!" Come on, come on, this bottle of wine should be toasted to Uncle Wang, if it weren't for Uncle Wang's open side, oh no, it's not the past, it's not right, uh..., oh yes, it's a deep understanding of righteousness, how can Brother Lu's trip to Chu be full of it?! Come, this king respects Uncle Wang! ”

Zilan held the wine bottle with trembling hands slightly, glanced at Chen Zheng and Zou Yan opposite painfully, and slowly poured the wine into her mouth, with a look of wanting to cry without tears on her face.

Huang Xie is also strange, Zilan, who was originally hindered everywhere in front of the King of Chu and himself, learned to be obedient in a blink of an eye?

Xiong Wan looked at Huang Xie and Jingyang, whose eyes were straight, and said with a smile: "Uncle Wang sent someone to invite Lu Gongzi and Mr. Zou Zi on the way back to the palace, and now it seems that this king is really worried." Come on, the second bottle of wine to toast Chun Shenjun and the old general Jingyang, one of the two has prepared such a sumptuous banquet, and the other is a meritorious escort, both of whom are the king's right-hand men! Oh yes, the wine in this wine bottle is Uncle Wang's private collection, why don't Uncle Wang accompany me to drink another bottle?! Hahahaha! ”

Wei Wuji interjected: "Since it is Uncle Wang's private wine, I have to thank Uncle Wang for having this blessing today." What's more, Uncle Wang is well aware of the righteousness and promises to give as much food as he wants when Brother Lu leaves Chu. The king of Chu can be assisted by someone with such a mind as Uncle Wang, and the hegemony of the Chu country is just around the corner! ”

"Good, good!" Xiong Wan said excitedly: "Come, let's raise the bottle together, and then pay tribute to Uncle Wang." ”

At this time, I looked at Zilan again, but she was sitting there dejectedly, looking at the wine bottle on the table and being stunned.

"Uncle Wang..., Uncle Wang..."

In Xiong Wan's successive shouts, Zilan turned around, slowly picked up the wine bottle and gestured for it, and put the wine bottle back.

Jing Yang looked at Zilan's abnormal performance, suddenly became alert, got up and came to Zilan and arched his hand: "Uncle Wang, where is he uncomfortable?" ”

"......" Zilan waved her arm weakly, but she was speechless.

"Uncle Wang really agreed to the grain thing?"

Zilan glanced at Jingyang resentfully, then glanced at Chen Zheng and Zou Yan, and silently lowered her head to the side.

Jingyang turned to Xiong Wan and said: "King, the matter of food is very important, if you annoy the King of Qin because of this, I am afraid that the soldiers of the Qin army will turn to the Chu State, and then it will be too late to regret it." ”

Chen Zheng chuckled and said, "Old General Jing, when you and I used that ear cup to fight wine, you didn't say that, did you?!" Why do you have to regret it in the blink of an eye? The old general drank me all to the underworld, and I almost didn't come back alive, why, I drank all the wine in vain?! ”

Jingyang turned his face: "How can national events be child's play!" You don't know what means you used, but you actually drank the old man and became unconscious, how can that wine count?! ”

"Good! That's fine. Chen Zheng got up and walked to Jingyang, waved his hand and greeted: "If the general wants to know my drinking methods, you might as well come over close to your ear, and I will teach the general the unique secret of not getting drunk with a thousand cups." ”

Jingyang, a veteran of the wine industry known as the No. 1 wine producer in Chu State, couldn't resist the temptation in front of him after all, only to see Chen Zheng whispering in Jingyang's ear, that Jingyang frowned, his face became gloomy, and then he bowed his hand to Chen Zheng and said: "Accept!" Then he sat back down, lowered his head, and continued to make wax figures.

The other people present were all confused, except for Zou Yanzai, who was smiling and silent, how could they feel weird?

Chen Zheng sat back beside Zou Yan, twisted his face and smiled: "I heard that Mr. Zou Zi is good at playing music, today in this palace hall, why don't Mr. play a song to help the wine?" ”

Before Zou Yan could answer, Zilan, who had been silent for a long time, hurriedly raised her hands and shouted, "Don't!" ”

Everyone's eyes focused on Zilan.

Chen Zheng smiled: "Uncle Wang, what do you mean?" ”

"This..., this..."

Chen Zheng smiled at Zou Yan again: "Mr. Zou Zi once blew that poor land to warm up the earth and revive Vientiane, and the tools he used must be extraordinary, can you teach me to wait for a look?" ”

"Don't!" Zilan shouted again.

The eyes of everyone present shifted from Zilan to Zou Yan, and then to Zilan at this time, what is this for?

Xiong Wan was puzzled: "What does Uncle Wang mean?" ”

Beads of sweat rolled down Zilan's cheeks, and at his ankle, a snake's tail showed an inch, and in a flash, it disappeared again.
