But now that Lianyi is by this princess's side, he has to go to see it again.

After pondering for a moment, Ling Jing finally nodded and said, "Okay, Brother Le, I will go to this Yinghua banquet." ”

Oxfam laughed, in fact, he naturally had great selfish intentions in this move, if he could introduce Ling Jing to the princess, then with the princess's means, it must be easier to trap him.

As for helping him meet Lianyi, it was a convenient thing to do.

"Brother Ling, then let's find a place to settle down now, and then I'll tell you about this Yinghua banquet."

Ling Jing bowed slightly, the two of them settled the account in the "Seven Phoenix Building", and paid some more compensation, so they went out of the building.

After passing through several bustling street markets in a row, the two arrived at a small courtyard in the west of the city.

"Brother Ling, this is one of my private property, which has been uninhabited, and now it can be used as a place for you to stay."

The scale of this mansion is not too large, just like the mansion of an ordinary rich family, it is not too eye-catching, but the layout in the house is quite jīng, and there is no shortage of garden pavilions.

"Brother Le bothered." Ling Jing smiled.

"Where, I don't like to hear Brother Ling's words, it's too outward, haha!"

Oxfam led Ling Jing to get acquainted with the environment of the house briefly, and then sat down in a side hall.

"Brother Ling, now I'll tell you about this Yinghua banquet." Oxfam sat opposite Ling Jing, with two cups of fragrant tea on the table, and said solemnly.

Ling Jing saw that his face was solemn, and he also guessed that this Yinghua banquet was not as simple as it sounded, and immediately said, "I was about to ask Brother Le for advice." ”

Oxfam suddenly smiled and asked, "Brother Ling, do you know who initiated this Yinghua banquet in the first place?" ”

Ling Jing shook his head, his eyes were dark about this part of the capital, how could he know these things.

Oxfam took a sip of tea, and did not deliberately whet people's appetites, and said: "In fact, the initiator of this Yinghua banquet is the most favored princess Jingchun in the dynasty, and it has been held for five consecutive years. Every time it is held, only some of the most outstanding young masters in the world are invited, and they must be from prominent families and have a certain background. ”

"Only invite young masters from prominent families?" Ling Jingshen moved, and said in his heart, no wonder he had never heard of this matter in the rivers and lakes.

Most of the people in the rivers and lakes outside the Beijing division have no background, and even the local tyrants and squires are very few, so they naturally can't get into the eyes of the princess.

Suddenly, he remembered something else.

"Brother Le, how many young masters are there in Jingshi?" There is one thing, he has always wondered, why the artistic conception level master, who is extremely rare in the rivers and lakes, is not as powerful as he imagined among the Beijing masters, and now he casually meets a young boy, and the swordsmanship is actually at the artistic conception level.

Oxfam smiled slightly, as if he had expected Ling Jing to ask this question, and said slowly: "The land of the capital master is indeed a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, otherwise, wouldn't it have made the people in the rivers and lakes outside turn the sky upside down?" ”

Ling Jing's face showed a sudden sè, no wonder in recent years, no matter how the rivers and lakes stirred up the wind and rain, the imperial court was as stable as Mount Tai, and it was peaceful and stable, and it turned out that he had never taken the changes in the rivers and lakes to heart.

But then he sighed and said, "But there are also many hidden masters in the rivers and lakes outside, such as Brother Ling, who are skilled in martial arts, I am afraid that there will be no less than ten." It's just that these people are generally inconspicuous, and the court rarely asks them. ”

Ling Jing's heart moved, and he said, "Brother Le, are you talking about those hidden masters?" ”

Oxfam nodded, and suddenly smiled meaningfully: "Brother Ling, don't tell me that you don't know that the Huashan Sect also has a peerless master of swordsmanship?" ”

"Eh" Ling Jing snorted, and wondered in his heart, could it be that the imperial court also knew that Uncle Feng Taishi was still alive?

Both of them didn't want to continue to entangle on this topic, so they passed by, and then listened to Oxfam remind: "There is also this Yinghua banquet, Yi Xiaolou of Yizi Pavilion will definitely participate, this person has been pursuing Princess Jingzhen for three years, and the Yinghua banquet every year will definitely be held." ”

"Brother Ling must be more careful when the time comes, today you injured Chen Qi and cut off someone's hands and feet, with the style of Yizi Pavilion that has always protected shortcomings, they will not give up."

Ling Jing smiled coldly and said, "Thank you Brother Le for reminding me, I will deal with this matter." ”

Oxfam said: "At that time, there will be people in our East Factory to participate in the banquet, if the word pavilion wants to bully people with more people, then it will be a miscalculation." ”

Ling Jing smiled faintly, noncommittal, he naturally understood Oxfam's kindness, but he liked to rely on himself for everything, Yizi Pavilion and the number one swordsman in the capital, he wanted to go and meet for a while.

The two chatted for a while, and Oxfam got up and prepared to leave, and said to Ling Jing before leaving: "Brother Ling, there are a lot of fun places in this Jingshi, I may be entangled in some affairs and can't accompany you to play, you might as well walk around by yourself." ”

Ling Jing smiled: "It's okay, Brother Le doesn't have to pay attention to me." ”

Oxfam said goodbye, walked two steps, suddenly remembered something again, and stopped: "I heard that there will be relics of the Divine Sword Hou from a hundred years ago on display near the Divine Sword Hou Mansion, and Brother Ling is a master of using swords, so you might as well go and see it then." ”

Ling Jing fell into deep thought when he heard this, and he didn't even notice when Oxfam left.

Shenjian Hou was a marquis who was canonized by the emperor more than 120 years ago, and he also wrote the imperial plaque of "Shenjian Hou" to reward this person, which can be described as a favor.

Excalibur Hou served the royal family, guarded the Ouchi Palace, and his swordsmanship was unique in the world, and he never tasted defeat in his life, and he didn't know how many masters with bad intentions for the royal family had fallen under the sword.

It is rumored that the five most powerful grandmasters of the barbarian state at that time secretly infiltrated the Beijing division in an attempt to assassinate the emperor, but Shenjian Hou was only a single sword, but the tea kung fu killed the five great grandmasters under the sword, and it was precisely because of this battle that he was canonized by the emperor as Shenjian Hou, which shocked the world.

"Divine Sword Candidate" Ling Jing sat upright in the side hall, his eyes contemplative, he had been famous for Divine Sword Candidate for a long time, and there were many rumors about this person in the rivers and lakes.

The Divine Sword Hou Mansion flourished more than a hundred years ago because of the Divine Sword Candidate, but in the next hundred years, it was extremely mediocre, and there was no amazing and brilliant swordsmanship master among the children of the later generations, and even the eleventh and twelfth of the original swordsmanship of the Divine Sword Candidate could not be learned.

"Is it because the descendants of Shenjian Hou are too mediocre, or is his swordsmanship too profound, so that future generations can't know what he wants?"

He suddenly became very interested in the relics that the Excalibur Waiting Mansion was about to exhibit. (To be continued.) )
