The main hall of the city lord's mansion, although it is not atmospheric, but at this time there are lanterns hanging everywhere, and the entire hall illuminated is brightly lit, giving people a feeling of splendor.

Hundreds of soldiers lined up outside the main hall, and hundreds of maids were busy inside and outside the main hall, fighting in battle, waiting to be summoned at any time.

Hao Yunzheng, Liu Yunya, Jiuhuang, Hao Qingxuan came here with ten young generals and Lu Shang and others.

As soon as they came to the door of the main hall, a group of people immediately poured out of the main hall.

"See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

This group of people came out and immediately knelt down on Haoyun Zheng with their fists and worshipped.

Looking up, I saw that there were Shao Si Ming, Deng Guhong, Fan Bing, Tu Gang and a number of generals from the Deserted City Lord's Mansion in this group of people. And the leader is a middle-aged man.

This man has a white face and beard, and although he looks only middle-aged, there is a sense of vicissitudes between his eyebrows, obviously, his age is not only this.

"No courtesy!" Hao Yunzheng carried his left hand and waved his right hand to make everyone stand up.

"Dad!" Liu Yunya, who was behind Hao Yunzheng, stepped forward, came to the middle-aged man, and called softly.

Haoyun Zheng saw Liu Yunya calling this man's father, smiled faintly, and said: "Recently, I have had several encounters with the city lord, but I didn't expect that the city lord turned out to be Uncle Liu who was called by the palace when I was a child!"

That middle-aged man is the city lord of this deserted city, Liu Yuan, although his strength is in the innate realm, he already has the power to stay in the face.

On the way of cultivation, it is divine, and it is divided into four realms: heaven, earth, spirit and mortal. Mortal realm cultivation, no matter how advanced and profound, reaching the peak of the Gang Qi Period, is always just an ordinary person. And cultivating to reach the spiritual realm, even if it is only the innate spiritual realm, can also increase the lifespan and maintain the appearance and health. It is precisely because of this that this middle-aged man looks so young. In fact, he was already in his fifties and sixties.

When Liu Yuan heard this, he was slightly stunned, not understanding where the title of Uncle Liu came from.

Liu Yunya, who was on the side, saw her father like this, and said in a soft voice: "Dad, have you forgotten that eighteen years ago, when you returned to your hometown to worship your ancestors on the Yuanyang Festival, your daughter was separated and was taken in by Ye's Tea House?"

Hearing Liu Yunya say this, Liu Yuan suddenly remembered what happened back then, and hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "Oh, it turns out that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was the prodigy of the Ye family back then!

Hao Yunzheng shook his head slightly, smiled bitterly, and said, "Uncle Liu smiled." ”

"Hey, didn't you tell us to come to dinner? don't talk, I'm hungry!" Just as Hao Yunzheng and Liu Yuan were greeting, Hao Qingxuan's dissatisfied voice came from the side, disrupting the two.

Hearing this, Liu Yuan hurriedly apologized, and then welcomed Hao Yunzheng and the others into the main hall.

When they came to the main hall, everyone took their seats.

Of course, although Hao Yunzheng seems to be a guest, with his status as a prince, he is naturally sitting on the main seat. And Liu Yuan can only sit down.

In the main hall, Liu Yuan had already arranged singing and dancing to wait for Hao Yunzheng. When the people served the wine and food, the music sounded, and the dancers specially rehearsed in the City Lord's Mansion also began to sing and dance.

Everyone pushed each other's cups and exchanged lamps, but it seemed to be happy.

At this moment, Haoyun Zheng gives others the feeling of being an easy-going and elegant feeling. It was as if he had forgotten about the war that was imminent, and had completely indulged in the joy of singing and dancing, the life of wine and meat.

On the main seat, Hao Yunzheng talked with everyone from time to time and sang and danced, as well as the music played by the band.

Below, the four generals of the Praetorian Guard looked at Hao Yunzheng with a frown.

"Lu Shang, what did the prince say after receiving the information?" Tu Gang, as the most senior of the four generals, turned to Lu Shang who came in with Hao Yunzheng on the side and asked.

At this time, the four of them were in no mood to drink at all, let alone care about singing and dancing.

When Lu Shang heard this, he frowned and thought for a while, and changed what Hao Yunzheng said at that time.

Tu Gang, Fan Bing, and Deng Guhong were all listening. After listening, all three of them frowned.

"What does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince mean by this, and what are your plans to bring us to this border place?" Fan Bing asked with some confusion, looking at the other three.

The other three also frowned, obviously not understanding the meaning.

"The prince has been playing a little too much recently, and he has been walking around with these women every day, and he doesn't seem to have paid attention to the affairs of the court. If you want to know the reason, I look at the woman next to him, and maybe you can get some answers!" Finally, the indifferent and arrogant Deng Guhong opened his mouth and whispered such a sentence.

When the words fell, several people raised their heads at the same time and looked at a woman sitting next to Hao Yunzheng's right hand.

This woman was dressed in pink Luo Qun at this time, her hair was black and red, and she was combed into flowing cloud sideburns. That beautiful face makes people heartbroken at a glance.

Jiuhuang looked at the singing and dancing in front of him at this time, and it also seemed a little novel. It seems that since Hao Yunzheng took her back to the Celestial Empire, because of her troubled affairs, she had no time to sing and dance, so she almost never really experienced this kind of scene.

When Jiuhuang was fascinated by the singing and dancing in front of him, listening to the beautiful melody of the music and falling into a whirlwind, he suddenly felt that someone's eyes were on him, and when he turned his head, he saw Tu Gang and a few people looking at him.

In the hearts of Tu Gang and others, Jiuhuang should be the woman who is determined by Haoyun Zheng. In the future, if they are not queens, they should also be concubines, so they naturally dare not offend Jiuhuang, and hurriedly retract their gaze at the moment.

Several people withdrew their gazes, glanced at each other, and then said at the same time: "When the banquet is over, let's find an opportunity to talk to Miss Jiuhuang to see if she knows His Royal Highness the Prince's plan." ”

A few people spoke, all nodding slightly.

"It's better to advise you not to act rashly, His Royal Highness the Prince's plan, it's best not to get involved. The most important thing for you now is to hurry up and prepare for the coming war. Don't really think that the prince is really addicted to this wine. A few people had just made a decision, but a cold voice came from the side, and it was the young priest who was sitting next to a few people who spoke.

Several people turned their heads to look at each other, and Lu Shang frowned even more, and said, "What do you mean?"

Shao Si Ming glanced at a few people lightly, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I don't know what the prince's plan is, but I can tell you that at this time, there is a dark tide outside, and His Royal Highness the prince has already organized a killing array." As long as the time comes, take action immediately, pacify the three continents, and regain all the power on the north bank of the Tianlan River. ”

When Tu Gang and the others heard this, their faces changed slightly, and they didn't expect that under the surface of this singing and dancing, there was such a turbulent scene.

When the wine has passed three rounds and the food has passed five flavors, everyone has different thoughts. Some people are in the middle of a banquet, but their hearts are concerned about things outside. And some people are really dedicated to this song and dance.

"Brother Haoyun Zheng, now that the banquet has passed, do you want to withdraw the banquet, you will play a piece of music in person, and try it with Miss Liu Yunya?" Jiuhuang has not forgotten the competition between Hao Yunzheng and Liu Yunya. And she really wanted to continue listening to this music, so she immediately raised the matter.

Hao Yunzheng looked at Jiuhuang, and then glanced at Liu Yunya on the side, only to see Liu Yunya smile generously and nodded slightly, which was considered to be agreed.

At that moment, Hao Yunzheng was in charge and said to Liu Yuan: "Lord Liucheng, withdraw the banquet, tonight, the palace is also a little interested, play a song." ”

Of course, Liu Yuan didn't dare to disobey Hao Yunzheng's order, and immediately asked people to withdraw the banquet. and sent someone to take out the musical instruments that Liu Yunya had collected over the years.
