Chapter Seventy-Eight: Night Talk
At night, the palace is brightly lit, talking and laughing, clinking glasses is endless, and the whole palace is full of joyful atmosphere, and even the faces of the people in the palace are smiling with joy.
Because of the celebration of the palace's big victory in the ring, Zhao Wenjin ordered to prepare a banquet in the palace for three days to celebrate, and Chen Yu, as the protagonist, naturally could not be absent.
At this moment, he was pulled in front of everyone by Zhao Wenjin, Zhao Wenjin patted him on the shoulder, and smiled at the enshrinement and guard commanders below: "This is the great hero of our palace, Ming Yu, it is he who turned the tide, defeated Xu Yang in the middle of the Naling Realm with the strength of the early stage of the Na Ling Realm, and won glory for our palace, let us toast him together!"
Chen Yu naturally couldn't shirk it, if he refused, he would simply be sweeping Zhao Wenjin's face, he didn't want to make Zhao Wenjin disgusted because of a glass of wine.
Chen Yu picked up the wine glass in front of him, signaled to everyone, and then dried it up, and everyone cheered loudly for him.
Chen Yu put down the cup and said with a modest smile: "Actually, this time it is not my credit alone, it depends on everyone's efforts and the leadership of the prince.
Seeing that Chen Yu was not proud of his merits, and was so modest, everyone couldn't help but have a good impression of Chen Yu in their hearts, and they raised their glasses to salute Chen Yu, and then drank it in one gulp.
Zhao Wenjin looked at this scene with a smile, but he smiled secretly in his heart, this Ming Yu is really a little slippery, but he is also very smart, and he knows that if he takes the credit completely on himself, he will inevitably be criticized.
Although it was true that he turned the tide and defeated the enemy, his victory alone would not make the palace shine, so he gave credit to everyone, on the one hand, he appeared modest, won the favor of everyone, and on the other hand, it could make him not so eye-catching.
What a good seedling, Zhao Wenjin sighed, his strength is superb, and his heart is even better, this kind of talent must not be sent, which makes Zhao Wenjin a little envious of Chen Yu's parents, giving birth to a son should be like this!
But if Chen Yu knew about it, he would probably laugh and lose his teeth, and once Zhao Wenjin knew his true identity, he probably wouldn't have the idea of soliciting, not only would he not have an idea, but he would probably have to think about how to get rid of him.
Zhao Wenjin saw Chen Yu toasting him, he smiled, took a sip of the wine glass, and just when Zhao Wenjin wanted to say something more, a figure hurriedly ran in and whispered something in Zhao Wenjin's ear, Zhao Wenjin's face changed slightly, but immediately retracted.
Although Zhao Wenjin's complexion changed quickly, Chen Yu, who was standing closest to him, had everything in his eyes, he lowered his head and sipped his wine, there was a big question mark in his eyes, and he didn't know what was going on, so Zhao Wenjin's face changed.
After beckoning everyone to eat and drink, Zhao Wenjin quietly left the banquet, and everyone except Chen Yu did not find out, although Chen Yu was very curious about Zhao Wenjin's whereabouts, but he was not ready to track down Zhao Wenjin.
Although Chen Yu overstepped the level and defeated Xu Yang, Chen Yu was not arrogant enough to be able to track a monk in the middle of the Divine Soul Realm without revealing his traces, and their Divine Soul Searching for the enemy was very powerful.
......
Zhao Wenjin actually didn't go far, he just arrived in the garden that was very close to his wing, and at this moment there was a person kneeling on one knee in front of him, who was the person who came to report the news just now.
Zhao Wenjin's brows tightened at this moment, and even his voice became much lower: "What the hell is going on, tell me your experience in detail, I want to hear how a monk in the late stage of the Naling Realm is in the middle of the Naling Realm!"
Listening to Zhao Wenjin's deep voice, the person kneeling on the ground couldn't help but shudder, he knew that Zhao Wenjin was already a little angry.
He hurriedly whispered: "The prince forgives the sin, it is the subordinates who are not doing well, but this time it is really an accident to lose it!"
"Oh, let's hear about it......" Zhao Wenjin said.
The man swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then spoke in a trembling voice about the evening's experience.
This person's name is Ma Ru, after getting Zhao Wenjin's order, he secretly followed Lin Wenqing all the way, originally everything was normal, because there was a lot of difference in strength, Ma Ru was also a hidden guard in the mansion, so before leaving the city, Lin Wenqing didn't find that he was still followed by a palace guard.
Originally, according to Zhao Wenjin's order, Ma Ru wanted to wait for Lin Wenqing to leave the city, find a place where no one was to kill him, if he did it in the Yuan capital, I am afraid that there would be many accidents, and it might even affect the reputation of the palace, Zhao Wenjin didn't want the palace to be contaminated with any bad reputation, what he cared about most was this.
So Ma Ru secretly followed Lin Wenqing all the way, although he always couldn't help but want to kill Lin Wenqing, but because of Zhao Wenjin's majesty, he still had to be patient.
After Lin Wenqing walked around the Yuandu City, when the sky gradually darkened, he walked to the city gate, which also made Ma Ru happy in his heart, Ma Ru, who had been following for a long time, was already a little impatient, and now he just wanted to kill this Lin Wenqing quickly, and then go back to the palace, he knew that there was a big banquet in the palace tonight, and it would be a pity to be late.
Seeing that Lin Wenqing was being inspected by the guards at the city gate, Ma Ru also walked not far from him, and finally, Lin Wenqing was about to step out of the city gate, when Ma Ru just wanted to follow, suddenly a figure stopped him.
It's the gambler Qi San, he is Ma Ru's old acquaintance, Ma Ru usually doesn't have any hobbies, the only thing he likes to do is to go to the treasure shop to gamble twice, and this Qi San is what he met in the gambling house.
"Eh, isn't this Ma Ye, why are you here, but it just so happens that I was just going to Baofang for two handfuls, how about it, let's go together?" Qi San leaned over familiarly.
Ma Ru frowned, he had a task on his side now, how could he go to the treasure shop with this Qi San.
"Get out of the way, I'm still in the way, don't get in the way!" Ma Ru said angrily.
Qi San didn't relent: "Master Ma, you're a little boring, you won so much money from me in Baofang before, but I brought enough money to turn the tables today, you won't give me face, right?"
Ma Ru saw that Lin Wenqing was about to walk out of the city gate, so he directly kicked Qi San away: "Get away from me, Lao Tzu is not in the mood to talk to you about this now!"
After Qi San was kicked out, he lay directly on the ground and couldn't get up.
"It's unreasonable to beat someone!" Qi San even shouted directly, attracting countless passers-by to stop and watch, and even the guards guarding the city were alarmed and sent a small soldier over to take a look at the situation.
When the soldier pushed away the crowd and walked in, he saw Ma Ru in the center of the crowd at a glance.
The little soldier immediately said respectfully: "My subordinates have seen the horse commander!"
Ma Ru waved his hand impatiently and said, "Drag this guy a little farther away, I still have important things to do!"
Hearing this, the little soldier hurriedly pulled Qi San, who was lying on the ground and holding Ma Ru's thigh, a little farther away, and Ma Ru also took the opportunity to look at the city gate, Lin Wenqing's trace was no longer visible!
Ma Ru instantly became anxious, if he lost Lin Wenqing, he didn't know how the prince would clean him up, he could only pray that Lin Wenqing didn't go far outside the city.
But the crowd of onlookers had not dispersed, and he could not hurt civilians at will, so he could only jump directly and step over the heads of the crowd.
The horse rushed out of the city gate like a madman, and the general who defended the city recognized Ma Ru, so he did not stop him.
After Ma Ru arrived outside the city, he didn't see any trace of Lin Wenqing, but he didn't give up, but ran out in one direction for many miles, and still didn't find Lin Wenqing, Ma Ru, who knew that his situation was not good, wanted to run away for a moment, but he knew that taking the initiative to ask for guilt was a little lighter than the punishment of being caught after escaping.
After weighing it again, Ma Ru still returned to the city, and after seeing Qi San who was detained by the guards, his temper suddenly came up, and he ordered directly to the guards: "Drag this kid away for me and beat him hard, but be careful not to beat him to death!"
After the guards received the order, two or three small soldiers dragged Qi San into the alley, and after a while, they heard Qi San's heart-rending wails from inside.
Ma Ru was a little relieved at this time, and he didn't care about Qi San, and walked towards the palace with a worried heart.
It's a pity that Ma Ru, who was far away, didn't see such a scene, and after Qi San wailed for a while, his voice gradually weakened.
After a while, a figure walked out of the alley, and it was Qi San who was wailing just now, but the strange thing was that Qi San, who had been wailing, did not have the slightest trace of being beaten, but was very clean.
Qi San looked at the direction where Ma Ru was going, smiled mockingly, and then put his hand on his face, and actually directly tore off a mask, revealing a completely different cheek.
"Hehe, this should be considered a complete task...... the man muttered to himself, and then disappeared in a few flashes......
