Chapter 24: Going to the Feast

This mansion is 13 acres wide, and the houses account for about one-third, and the whole building complex is distinct in primary and secondary, high and low, and solemn and generous. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 The remaining part of the info is a garden, in which there are mountains and rivers, islands and pavilions, flowers and bamboos. Mountains, waters, bridges, islands, pavilions, buildings, roads, bamboos, etc. form a beautiful picture, and the whole mansion is both magnificent and poetic.

Wen Bin, Fu Xuelan and two guards walked towards the main house under the leadership of Wan Qing, and along the way, Wan Qing talked endlessly, and his mouth was like a river in front of the mansion, but like a lobbyist. Thirty-one officers and men were brought to the stables by servants, and their horses were tended to by special personnel.

Not long after, Wen Bin and the others came to the main house meeting hall, and without waiting for Wen Bin to speak, Wan Qing said very brightly: "After many days of traveling, Wen Hou must have been tired, and the old slave is inconvenient to disturb, please Wen Hou take a break!" The old slave retires! ”

"Director Wan, go slowly!"

"The old slave retires!" Wan Qing bowed, then turned to leave the chamber.

After Wan Qing left, Wen Bin and the others did not speak immediately, and just stayed quietly in the conference hall. After a while, Fu Xuelan glanced at her, and two guards began to search the main house, one inside and one outside.

"Wenhou, after a careful search, there are no outsiders inside or outside the main house!" After the search, the two guards returned to the council chamber to report to Wen Bin.

"Good! This is the Longtan Tiger's Den, we must be careful! Don't let anyone else hear us! Liu Jun and Zeng Chen, you have to pay more attention! ”

"Yes!" After speaking, a guard named Liu Jun walked out of the conference hall and guarded the main entrance, patrolling the surroundings with a pair of tiger eyes.

At this time, Fu Xuelan opened her mouth and said: "Today's dinner, I don't know if the son has a way to deal with it?"

"Humph! There is no good feast, there will be no good feast! Bai Zongwu will definitely give me Ma Wei a look, so that I can keep my mouth shut in amusement! If you want to return to Beijing safely, you must act according to his eyes. Hum! Dream! ”

"Childe, you have to be careful! The slave family will accompany you! ”

Wen Bin shook his head, a confident smile appeared on his face, and then said, "You don't have to! It's not time to fight head-on, and he doesn't dare to do anything to me at this time! The identity of the Marquis of Yi Xian is nothing to him, but the identity of the Northern Observer is different, how can he be allowed to despise it! ”

"No matter what, Childe must be more careful, and never underestimate the opponent!"

"Hmmm! Rest assured! You and Liu Jun stay in the mansion and rest for a while. Zeng Chen accompanied me to the banquet. ”

"The slave family obeys the orders of the son!"

"Yes!"

One after the other, two voices sounded in the conference hall, and they had no doubt about Wen Bin's arrangement. At this time, Wen Bin frowned, as if thinking about something, his lips squirmed slightly, but he didn't make any sound. Seeing this, Fu Xuelan and Zeng Chen could only stand quietly on the side in order not to disturb Wen Bin, waiting for the latter's instructions.

"It's so unsafe here! After some time, we must find a reason to transfer Captain Zheng and the rest of the officers and soldiers to the mansion, only in this way can our safety be guaranteed. ”

"Childe, when is the transfer expected?"

"Hmm...... Don't rush now, we'll make a decision according to the situation then! ”

In the following hour, Wen Bin discussed the plan with Fu Xuelan and others, and did not stop discussing until it was dark. At this moment, a rush of running came from outside the door.

"Wenhou, Dong joins the army and asks to see you!"

"Exactly! Let him in! ”

After a while, Dong Yanbin, who had left the Lizhou army earlier, walked into the conference hall quickly, and as soon as he saw Wen Bin, he hurriedly bowed his hand, and said at the same time: "Wenhou, it's getting late, so the king ordered me to take Wenhou to the official residence." ”

"Lizhou's wine and delicacies, Benhou has been looking forward to it for a long time! Please also ask Dong to join the army to lead the way! ”

"Don't dare, don't dare! Wenhou please! ”

Dong joined the army in front, Wen Bin and the guard Zeng Chen followed, and the group of three walked towards the main gate of the mansion.

Three moments later, Wen Bin came to the official residence of the Lizhou assassin, which was much larger than the mansion where Wen Bin lived, with more than 20 acres. Along the way, Wen Bin looked east and west with great interest, and Dong Senjun also explained the scenery of the mansion from time to time.

After a while, a large group of people came towards him, and the person at the head was Bai Zongwu, the assassin of Lizhou, and I saw him walking towards Wen Bin quickly, maintaining several positions with the people behind him.

Seeing this, Wen Bin immediately quickened his pace and walked towards everyone. The two sides were like two streams, and they were about to converge, and at this moment, a hearty laugh came out of Bai Zongwu's mouth.

"Haha...... Ha ha...... Haha......"

After the laughter, Bai Zongwu stopped, and together with officials at all levels, he moved forward deeply, and said in unison: "I've seen Yixianhou!" ”

"Colleagues, don't be polite!"

"Wenhou, the dinner party is ready! This way, please! Bai Zongwu said respectfully.

"Thank you for your hospitality!"

"The lower officials are terrified! Wenhou, please! ”

Then, everyone moved in the direction of the meeting room, Wen Bin and Bai Zongwu walked in front, and officials at all levels followed. Along the way, Wen Bin and Bai Zongwu kept talking, and sometimes bursts of laughter came from the front of the crowd.

During the conversation, everyone came to the meeting room, and after a period of greetings, officials at all levels sat down in turn. As soon as Wen Bin sat down, he heard a loud clapping sound, which came from Bai Zongwu.

Wen Bin's heart froze, and he looked around quietly, and after a moment, a mouthful of turbid air was gently exhaled. At this time, through the small door on the side of the hall, many beautiful maids came out, each holding a silver plate in his hand, and many fine wines and delicacies were placed on the silver plate.

Within a few moments, all kinds of enticing smells filled the hall. In the past few days, Wen Bin has only eaten some dry food at each meal, and when he suddenly saw such a delicacy, it was inevitable that he would lose his temper for a while.

Wen Bin subconsciously swallowed his saliva, his throat kept moving up and down, and his eyes were fixed on the wine and food.

This scene was seen by Bai Zongwu, and after he smiled slightly, he picked up the wine glass and raised it high, and said loudly: "Come!" Dear colleagues, I'll wait for a cup of Jingwenhou! ”

"Good!" Everyone said in unison.

After drinking this glass of wine, Bai Zongwu continued: "Wenhou, the food in Lizhou is difficult to compare with the capital. I hope Wenhou will forgive me! ”

"Haha! Ben Hou doesn't think so! This fish, for example, is really delicious, and it is much stronger than the Kyoto cuisine! Wen Bin pointed the silver chopstick in his hand to a fish, and then said with a smile.

"Haha! Being praised by Wenhou is a blessing for me! Bai Zongwu said with a smile.

"That's it! It is! ”

"The blessing of Lizhou!"

"What the king said is very true!"

……

As soon as Bai Zongwu's words were finished, the officials of Lizhou also spoke one after another, and they echoed each other. Of course, not all Lizhou officials were like this, and three of them were silent, and even one was sarcastic.

The various performances of the officials were all under Wen Bin's eyes, and at the same time they were secretly recorded in his heart. In order not to attract Bai Zongwu's attention, Wen Bin didn't pay too much attention to the three silent officials.

For the official with a sarcastic face, Wen Bin swept it over, and his eyes did not stop at all. He had already recognized this person, as early as when Wen Bin and the others had just arrived in Licheng, this official had shown extreme disgust.

"It's kind of interesting!" Wen Bin said secretly in his heart.
