Su Qin then drank with the soldiers around him while watching the singing and dancing performances, and he raised his glass to almost every guest who participated in the banquet, thanking them for their dedication to the Alliance. All the soldiers crawled out of the pile of dead on the battlefield, and when they drank, they were much less restrained, and naturally let go of heavy drinking.

Su Qin was in a good mood, and he drank a few more glasses, and his head was a little dizzy. He saw that the song and dance performance had passed five or six times, and felt that it should be over, so he sent someone to call Chen Dan and prepared to announce the end of the song and dance to her.

However, the person sent to call Chen Dan had not yet returned, but suddenly there was a noisy sound from the door of the banquet hall, which attracted Su Qin's attention, he looked at the door strangely, and thought to himself: "What the hell is going on, how can it be so noisy." Today, for this banquet, Taoyuan has refused to entertain outsiders in the evening, how can outsiders come, is it that someone deliberately makes trouble? ”

Su Qin looked at the door of the banquet hall in surprise, and suddenly stumbled in from there, a person was a gatekeeper in the peach garden. The man entered the lobby in a panic, passing by a group of performing kabuki, whose flustered footsteps and nervous expressions made them all take a big start.

Su Qin was very displeased, and thought to himself: "This person is also rude and out of shape, so sweeping everyone's interest!" But Su Qin has always been not very strict with his subordinates, and he has to listen to this person's report before deciding whether to punish him.

When the doorman arrived in front of Su Qin, he fell to the ground with a thud and reported: "Su Cheng is compatible, there is a team of Imperial Forest Army from Handan Palace, which has arrived outside the gate of the peach garden, and the villain went to block it, but they pushed it back. ”

When Su Qin heard this, his eyebrows suddenly furrowed, he didn't expect that the Imperial Forest Army in the palace would come here in the middle of the night, "Could it be that something happened in the palace?" Su Qin couldn't help but tighten his heartstrings.

When he learned that these Imperial Forest Army were still menacing, he was even more puzzled, could it be that Zhao Hou and Zhao Yu had changed their hexagram again?

Even if Zhao Hou still supports the Huanshui Conference, there are only less than five days left before the Huanshui Conference of the Hezong Alliance, and if an accident occurs in the palace during this period, it will also be a tricky matter.

Su Qin hurriedly stood up, he didn't have time to wait for Chen Dan to come and obey the order, so he instructed Qu Xin: "General Qu, you take care of the banquet first, I have something to do." After a while, Chen Dan arrived, and you told her that the cabaret performance would end soon. The soldiers have traveled a long distance and worked very hard, so you should drink it once again tonight, and then have a banquet later. ”

Qu Xin also heard the situation reported by the Taoyuan gate, and when he heard that the royal forest army in the palace had come to Taoyuan, he knew that it should not be a good thing to be in the middle of the night. Qu Xin thought to himself: "It's all used in the Royal Forest Army, this must not be a good thing." ”

After listening to Su Qin's entrustment, Qu Xin interjected and asked: "I don't know if there are any urgent matters in the palace, do Prime Minister Su want me to accompany you on a journey, so that you won't be able to deal with it alone." ”

Su Qin shook his head and politely rejected Qu Xin's kindness. As soon as he stepped away, Zhou Shao rushed up from his seat, he had just heard the message from the doorman, and he had already had the intention of accompanying Su Qin to inspect it, but there was still half a pot of wine in the wine jug, so he was reluctant to waste it, so he hurriedly drank the wine dry.

When Su Qin was about to leave, Zhou Shao stood up without saying anything and followed Su Qin. Su Qin turned his head to look at Zhou Shao and asked, "General Zhou, what are you doing here?" ”

Zhou Shao touched a drop of leftover wine at the corner of his mouth and replied, "I'll go with the prime minister to see what happened, and you can take me with you." ”

Su Qin excused himself and said, "You drink your wine so much, you will have a good time tonight." Why bother to go out with me again, you better go back to your seat. ”

Zhou Shao didn't do it, he followed Su Qin out, and muttered in his mouth: "The last general is used to following the prime minister to do things, you go, I don't feel steady, where can I still drink?" You're just going to join in the fun. ”

Su Qin saw that Zhou Shao insisted on acting with him, but he couldn't persuade him to go back, so he had to follow him out of the banquet hall together. Su Qin knew in his heart that Zhou Shao was nominally accustomed to following, but in his heart he probably didn't feel at ease about handling urgent matters alone.

When Su Qin arrived at the gate of the peach garden, he found that there were twenty sergeants of the Royal Forest Army, led by a very old and tall captain, who were entering the gate, and they were eager to try and come to the garden. At the door, there were still a dozen peach-eyed gatekeepers standing in front of them.

Since Su Qin became the prime minister of Zhao State, his status is different from the past, and he has also arranged more guards in the peach garden, plus the peach garden itself is a place to entertain guests, and more guards are arranged to prevent rude and reckless people from making trouble by drinking.

The Imperial Forest Army in the palace has always been rampant, and they came to the Peach Garden today, with an urgent edict from Zhao Hou Zhao Yu. The Imperial Foresters rushed into the peach orchard, and the guards in the garden naturally did not do it, they stepped forward to stop it, so there was a small conflict.

After all, those Imperial Forest Soldiers were still afraid of Su Qin's status as prime minister, and they didn't dare to act casually, if it was the mansion of other Zhao people, they would have used strong means to rush in. Therefore, the guards of the peach garden stopped them, and they only pushed each other, and there was no fierce fight.

When Su Qin arrived at the gate of the garden, the guards in the garden shouted happily and shouted, "The prime minister is here, the prime minister is here." ”

The commander who led the Imperial Forest Army was a son of a family surnamed Zhao, and he was born to be more noble than others, and he didn't take ordinary people seriously. He raised his head and glanced in the direction where Su Qin was, and found that sure enough, there was a tall and handsome figure walking towards the door. He had also seen Su Qin originally, but he was not familiar with Su Qin, but the guards in the garden shouted "The prime minister is here", and the person who came should be sure that it was Su Qin, the current prime minister of Zhao State.

When Su Qin arrived at the door, the guards guarding the gate first opened their mouths to report to Su Qin, and said: "Please make the decision for us, these people claim to be the royal guards in the palace, and go straight inside, we said to them, and let us go to the garden to make a sound, they were impatient, and they simply came directly inside." The little ones were not sure of their identities, so they barricaded them at the door. ”

When the captain heard the report of the guards in the peach garden, he was very angry and said, "You minions, what kind of dog eyes do you look like, can't you see what clothes we are wearing?" How could ordinary people have such silver armor and white robes, these are all the attire of the royal forest army in the palace. ”

Su Qin heard the captain's reprimand, and his heart was extremely unhappy, and he persuaded the captain: "I have my own rules in this peach garden, and it is also because it is dark, and the guards in the peach garden can't see your outfit clearly, so I offended you." ”

The captain snorted and said: "We are here by the emperor's edict, and seeing us is equivalent to seeing the king, these slaves don't know how to respect the king." ”

When Su Qin heard the words of this captain, his anger rose in his chest, and he said in his heart: "You are a captain who runs errands next to Zhao Hou, and you are proud to be like this, one day you become a general, and you must not be kneeled in front of you and carried you to walk." ”

Su Qin said: "These people are also people in my peach garden, all the soldiers of the Royal Forest Army will give them a little face, don't keep saying that the slaves are long and the slaves are short, you just let them go." ”

The captain in the palace snorted coldly again at this time, and scolded: "For the sake of Prime Minister Su's face, I will spare you today and don't care about you, otherwise, hum ......"

The "hum" at the back of him hadn't finished humming yet, and there was already a person who couldn't hold back his temper, this person was Zhou Shao, he rushed out from behind Su Qin, and grabbed the lieutenant's neck with his right hand.

Zhou Shao's right hand was forceful, and he lifted the lieutenant, don't look at him as a head taller than Zhou Shao, but after the neck was caught, the person was like a helpless straw, and he had no strength to resist at all. The lieutenant grabbed his hands wildly, and his feet kept fluttering.

When the twenty or so Royal Forest Sergeants saw that their leader was being captured, they pounced viciously, ready to add their fists and save their leader.

As everyone knows, Zhou Shao is a general who fought with real knives and guns on the battlefield, and he has already practiced the sensitive feeling of seeing six ways and hearing all directions, only to see him exchange and raise his feet, Teng, Teng, Teng kicked out a few kicks, and kicked the several Royal Forest Sergeants who were in front of him and flew out.

Zhou Shao took advantage of this opportunity and slapped the captain three times with his left hand, causing the captain to squeak and scream, and tears flowed down. Then, with a wave of his right hand, Zhou Shao swept the lieutenant out of the way and slammed it to the ground.

Zhou Shao scolded: "When your ancestors and I fought on the battlefield, where did you dare to be rampant here. The prime minister told you not to call the doorman a minion, but you kept saying endlessly, I think you are something that no one has raised. ”

Zhou Shao stepped forward again, walked to the side of the captain, and then scolded: "I will teach you a lesson today on behalf of your ancestors, a child who doesn't understand the rules, don't you know that Lu Dao was the prime minister of Zhao State in front of you just now?" It's okay not to kneel down to meet each other, and ignore the prime minister's orders. ”

He raised his foot and made a gesture to kick the captain, but the captain hurriedly crawled on the ground, rubbed his hands instead of his feet, and rubbed back a few times, dodging Zhou Shao's big feet. Zhou Shao took his foot back and threatened: "Did you hear what I taught you today?" ”
