Zhang Fei led a group of his men to flee back to Jiangnan, and Zhang Yan, who acted as a hostage, had to stay in Liu's mansion. Fortunately, as a good sister in the past, Zhang Yan had also stayed in Liu's Mansion more than once, and because she was busy preparing for Wang Kunjun's affairs, neither Liu Fei nor the others in the mansion felt anything inappropriate about this.

On the tenth day of the third lunar month of the first year of Jianlong, Wang Kunjun's chariots and horses arrived in Langzhou City under the escort of the "Ranger Battalion" led by Muttle, and Zhang Weixin, Xu Shaoan, Qian Yuanshan, Zeng Zhilin, and a number of local civil and military officials in Jinghu, including Liu Fei, went out of the city for ten miles to greet them and connected them into the city.

The main purpose of Wang Kunjun's visit to Jinghu was to appease the local officials, commend Zhang Weixin and others for crossing the crowd, and completely put down the rebellion in Jinghu, especially in Hunan. Therefore, after entering the city, Wang Kunjun first read out the imperial court's edict to appease local officials, and then announced the commendation order for those who made meritorious contributions to the pacification of Jinghu. Among them, Zhang Weixin and Xu Shaoan were mainly rewarded with gold and silver and false titles, and local officials were mainly rewarded with grades and positions. As for Qian Yuanshan and Zeng Zhilin, because of their good performance in the process of suppressing the rebellion, they not only restored their official positions as pacification envoys and deputy envoys who had previously guarded Jinghu Lake, but also obtained a large amount of gold and silver property. Of course, for Qian and Zeng, who are the founding uncles, the commanders and deputy commanders of the palace, and the generals of Jin Wuwei, the official positions of appeasement envoys and deputy envoys are actually nothing, and some gold and silver goods are not worth mentioning, and what the two of them value most is that they have finally proved their abilities with their own efforts and regained the affirmation and trust of the crossing team. Therefore, whether it is the edict of commendation to the imperial court, or the restoration of official positions, or the reward of gold and silver, they can handle it calmly, but Wang Kunjun took their hands after reading the holy decree, and sincerely said "The two brothers have worked hard during this time, and I hope that the two brothers will make persistent efforts in the future and turn this place into a base for our brothers to pacify the southwest", but it made the two of them feel a lot of emotion and excitement, and it took a while to calm down.

After finishing the official business, the next step is to prepare for the private business. Seeing that the twelfth day of the third month of the lunar calendar is approaching, Qian Yuanshan's pacification mansion is full of lights and lively, and the whole house is preparing for the wedding celebration that will be held in two days. As one of the entertainment programs at the wedding banquet, the cabaret performance is naturally also doing rehearsals for zuihou. Although Zhou Yihan, who is known as Zhou Yun, did not come here to show her singing and dancing talents and win the favor of the guests at the grandest ceremony in Langzhou City in recent times, as the leader of the song and dance performance, she also had to cheer up and devote herself to rehearsing the show to the best so as not to arouse the suspicion of others.

In fact, after learning the news that Wang Kunjun would stay in the Qian Mansion during this time from the small talk of his dance partner, the Qian Mansion's family members, and his subordinates, Zhou Yihan did not think of taking advantage of his unpreparedness to launch an attack in advance. It's just that after entering the Qian Mansion, in order to avoid attracting the attention of others, Zhou Yihan has cut off contact with his companions outside, and he doesn't know if Zhang Fei, Zhang Yan and others have safely evacuated Langzhou now, for fear that his early action will cause his companions to fail to escape. Second, Jinghu is a newly occupied place, and it has just put down rebellions everywhere, whether it is Zhang Weixin, Xu Shao'an, or Qian Yuanshan, Zeng Zhilin, and Mutel, they all attach great importance to Wang Kunjun's safety in Langzhou. Although the Qian Mansion was jubilant and seemed to be defenseless, it was actually loose on the outside and tight on the inside. Although the guards outside the palace are no different from usual, inside the palace are the pro-guard battalions on the surface and the agents of the Internal Affairs Department of the Ministry of Intelligence in the shadows cooperate with each other, and a number of bright or dark warning curtains have been formed around Wang Kunjun and even Zhang Weixin, Xu Shao'an, and others. It is said that Zhou Yihan is a subordinate of Kabuki, and even local officials like Liu Fei who want to get close to Wang Kunjun and others have to go through layers of reporting and supervision, and there is no chance to do it at all. Therefore, after carefully testing and realizing the strict vigilance of Wang Kunjun's side, Zhou Yihan decisively gave up his plan to act in advance, and patiently waited for the best and only opportunity to perform singing and dancing on his wedding day.

On the twelfth day of March in the lunar calendar of the first year of Jianlong, with the official holding of the wedding, the festive atmosphere of the Qian Mansion has gradually entered the **. After a series of tedious and solemn ceremonies, with the official start of the wedding banquet, the whole wedding ceremony has also entered the most enthusiastic stage.

At the banquet, a group of guests pushed glasses and changed lamps, you came and went, eating and drinking lively. Compared with those local officials who were still a little restrained in front of Wang Kunjun, Zhang Weixin, Xu Shaoan, Zeng Zhilin, Muter, and the groom official Qian Yuanshan were much more relaxed and open-minded. After the brothers poured several rounds of wine with the groom's official to coax the seedlings, they turned the spearhead of the "attack" to the fifth brother Wang Kunjun. And Wang Kunjun, who has always paid attention to getting along in private, especially at the wine table, faced with the "attack" of the brothers, he also changed the seriousness and solemnity of the office on weekdays, and actively "responded" without fear.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, with the sound of silk and bamboo, a team of Kabuki fish dressed in colorful and light costumes entered the venue, and in the crowd of guests who had already drunk to the point of whistling and cheering, they gently opened their singing voices and slowly stretched their waists, presenting a beautiful and beautiful song and dance performance for everyone.

At the end of the song, the kabuki did not leave the curtain call, but under the leadership of Zhou Yihan, they took the wine jugs from the hands of the servants standing next to them, walked to the guests, and poured wine for them. As the leader of this group of kabuki, the task of toasting Wang Kunjun, the most distinguished guest present, naturally fell on Zhou Yihan - the toast was Zhou Yihan's timely proposal and persuasion of the Qian Mansion steward who was in charge of the banquet program to agree to join in order to improve the probability of successful assassination, and used his advantage as a dancer to win the opportunity for Wang Kunjun to toast in his own hands.

Holding the exquisite silver wine jug in both hands, restraining the nervousness of the first assassination mission and the imminent revenge, Zhou Yihan tried his best to maintain a light and graceful posture, deliberately showed a sweet and slightly restrained smile, and walked towards Wang Kunjun.

Seeing a kabuki who was leading the singing and dancing, walking towards him with a wine jug, and then seeing the other kabuki who were pouring wine for other guests, Wang Kunjun, who had just had a drink with Qian Yuanshan, and was about to reach out and pick up the wine jug from the table to pour wine for himself, naturally understood the meaning, so he took back the hand that was about to take the wine jug, held his own wine glass, and waited for the Qingli girl opposite, who looked no more than seventeen or eighteen years old, to pour wine for herself.

Seeing that Wang Kunjun withdrew the hand that was about to take the wine jug on the table, and waited for him to pour him wine with a smile, whether it was his posture, expression or eyes, there was no sense of precaution, and the nearest guard in the banquet hall was also three feet away, Zhou Yihan couldn't help but be secretly happy in his heart. While suppressing her more and more excited feelings, she walked in front of Wang Kunjun like a spring breeze blowing willows, first gave a deep salute, and then held the wine pot to fill the wine glass in Wang Kunjun's hand, and said softly: "The slave respects the prince of the country, and wishes the prince good luck." ”

Wang Kunjun smiled when he heard this, and saluted the brothers who had just been filled with wine glasses by Kabuki, and then raised his head and drank the wine in the glass. And at the moment when Wang Kunjun raised his head to drink, Zhou Yihan, who was originally holding the wine jug in both hands, immediately handed the wine jug to his left hand, raised his right hand, and touched the bun seemingly unintentionally, and a hosta that was originally inserted in the hair was already in his palm, and then stabbed the throat exposed in front of him by the other party with lightning speed.
