Chapter 286: Night Banquet

Since it is a show to promote Han culture with Xiao Lian, Tuoba Hong naturally does a good job. Tuoba Hong not only treated Xiao Lian as a guest, but also invited all the important ministers of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

As soon as Xiao Lian walked up to the main hall, a thousand eyes scraped on him like a knife. Whether it was Hanchen or Xianbei courtiers, they were all hostile to Xiao Lian.

For the old ministers of the Xianbei clan, it is inconceivable that a subordinate national heavenly master who has been broken down is treated with the courtesy of a guest. Tuoba Hong's move was undoubtedly using Xiao Lian to slap the faces of a group of Xianbei old ministers.

Now that everyone in the Northern Wei Dynasty uses the surname Han and the Han woman, do they still have to bow down to the Han people? The Xianbei ministers couldn't be angry at Tuoba Hong, but against Xiao Lian, the hostility of wanting to eat his flesh and drink his blood was not concealed at all.

For Hanchen, first of all, the reputation of the ghost-faced Langjun in Southern Qi is not too good. Secondly, Hanchen has been suppressed by Xianbei ministers in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and Hanchen who can sit in high positions has survived in the cracks for many years and has paid his whole life to get to that position. And now Xiao Lian is in a high position because of the false name of a heavenly master. This will not be tolerated in any way.

Xiao Lian looked at him step by step above the hall and sat down in his place.

"Hmph, why does Mr. not dare to show his true face?" The one who spoke was sitting opposite Xiao Lian with a somewhat gray beard, he had a gray beard, and although he was wearing Hanfu, he still wore a braided hair in the Xianbei style, and his gray beard was also braided into a braided style.

A maid walked beside Xiao Lian and poured a glass of wine for Xiao Lian: "That's the King of Rencheng." ”

Tuoba Cheng, the king of Rencheng, was an important minister of the Northern Wei Dynasty. It is rumored that he was also one of the important ministers who supported the southward migration of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

Xiao Lian looked at Tuoba Cheng's dress, thinking that this supported the southward migration, Tuoba Cheng was probably just talking.

Xiao Lian looked back at the maid who poured wine for herself, the woman was wearing a simple Hanfu, and she was in the uniform style of the palace maids of the Northern Wei Dynasty, but her appearance was full of Xianbei appearance, with slightly dark skin and a high nose.

The maid knelt behind Xiao Lian and said, "The slave maid is Mo Huyao, and the fourth prince asked the slave maid to take care of the Heavenly Master." ”

Xiao Lian looked to his side, and Gongziyu was still sitting behind the desk in white. Chai Yu changed into a blue shirt and sat behind Gongzi Yu, and when he saw Xiao Lian looking over here, he glared at Xiao Lian fiercely.

Tuoba Cheng saw that Xiao Lian didn't answer his words, as if he didn't put himself in his eyes, and suddenly said angrily: "Didn't you say that the Southern Barbarian is the most important courtesy?" I think a barbarian is a barbarian, how can there be any rudeness? ”

Xiao Lian raised one side and smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth: "Don't King Ren Cheng know the sentence 'People don't respect me, it's because I have no talent'?" ”

"You!" Tuoba Cheng was not good at words, he was choked by Xiao Lian, and suddenly slammed his fist on the table with a "bang": "Don't pretend to be a ghost for Lao Tzu!" We Xianbei people don't eat your lip lawsuits, we have the ability to compete, let you know what it means to speak with your fists! ”

Xiao Lian smiled slightly. To be honest, if he was asked to talk about Sinology, he really couldn't do anything to bring out the poems of Du Fu, Li Bai, and Bai Juyi. Not to mention anything else, if he does this, he will immediately be seen by Gongzi Yu. But if he speaks with his fists, he has much more confidence.

Xiao Lian raised the corners of his mouth and smiled at Tuoba Cheng: "Okay." ”

Tuoba Cheng was stunned, he didn't expect this seemingly unruly Han man to agree to him so easily.

Gongziyu picked up the cup from the table and took a sip lightly, hiding the smile on his face. If Xiao Lian could directly kill Tuoba Cheng on the spot, it would be in line with his heart.

It's just that if Xiao Lian exposes his strength now, I'm afraid that it will be even more difficult to assassinate Tuoba Hong in the future.

Gongzi Yu put down the wine glass and said warmly: "Today's palace banquet, I am afraid that the emperor will be blamed again when he comes later." ”

Tuoba Cheng is not used to Gongzi Yu's pretentious appearance. Tuoba Cheng snorted coldly: "What do you mean by the Four Kings? If you can't clean up a Han person's tea, where will it hinder the emperor's eyes? ”

Gongzi Yu looked at Tuoba Cheng with a smile and said, "Why is King Ren still shouting and killing like this?" The emperor wants us to learn Han culture, doesn't he just want us to get rid of the bad habit of fighting and killing? ”

"Hmph." Tuoba Cheng snorted out of his nose: "Do you want my Xianbei men to be like you?" Men and women and women? ”

Gongzi Yu lowered his eyes and smiled, not annoyed, but Jackal Yu was so angry that he couldn't help but want to stand up. Gongzi Yu lightly knocked twice on the desk, and Chai Yu had to sit back again.

Childe has a noble posture in his bones. But this noble posture fell in Tuoba Cheng's eyes, but it was pretentious and elegant. Tuoba Cheng saw that Gongziyu didn't pay attention to his own provocation at all, and he looked down on Gongziyu even more. Just as he was about to ridicule Gongzi Yu again, Tuoba Hong had already entered the hall.

Tuoba Hong looked at Tuoba Cheng, then at Gongzi Yu's expression that seemed to be smiling, squinted at Tuoba Cheng and asked, "What are you talking about?" ”

Tuoba Cheng immediately put away the sarcastic expression when he looked at Gongzi Yu, and smiled innocently: "Your Majesty, Weichen is thinking that the Heavenly Master of Southern Qi has just arrived, so he should also see the ability of our Great Wei." ”

Tuoba Hong nodded: "Well, what you said makes sense, how do you want the Heavenly Master to see?" ”

Tuoba Cheng looked at Xiao Lian triumphantly: "We Xianbei people are fighting the world on horseback, of course, we want to let the Heavenly Master teach us the ability of Great Wei." ”

Several of the courtiers in the palace echoed it. The Hanchen also looked at Xiao Lian with a smile. Han Chen wanted to use these Xianbei clans to suppress and suppress Xiao Lian. What's more, there has been a long-standing grudge between the Xianbei clan and the Hanchen, and now that someone has come to be the first bird, the Hanchen in the palace are happy to watch a good show.

Tuoba Hong did not object to Tuoba Cheng's proposal: "Do you want to compete with the Heavenly Master? ”

As soon as Tuoba Cheng heard that Tuoba Hong agreed to his proposal, the whole person immediately became excited. In order to promote sinicization, Tuoba Hong highly respected the literati, and their generals had long been aggrieved.

Gongzi Yu on the side sighed invisibly.

Xiao practiced kung fu and how to Tuoba Cheng didn't think about it at all. Tuoba Cheng saw that although Xiao Lian was tall and long, he still looked very thin compared to the strong Xianbei people, and he didn't take Xiao Lian in his eyes.

Tuoba Cheng held the shelf and glanced at Xiao Lian with great disdain: "The sword has no eyes, but it can't really hurt the Heavenly Master." It's better to shoot than to ride. ”

Tuoba Hong looked back at Xiao Lian and asked, "What is the Heavenly Master's intention?" ”

Xiao Lian smiled faintly: "Don't be so troublesome, just compare here, just point to the end." ”

Tuoba Cheng saw Xiao Lian's indifferent appearance, and his face suddenly looked bad.

Tuoba Hong looked at Xiao Lian gently: "King Ren Cheng is the number one warrior of our Great Wei. The Celestial Master is a little overbearing, isn't he? ”

The first warrior? Xiao Lian subconsciously glanced back at Gongziyu, and Gongziyu sneered at him, and his heart suddenly had a bottom.

Xiao Lian said lightly: "It's okay. After that, he got up and walked to Tuoba Cheng's side: "What kind of blade does King Ren Cheng usually use?" If you don't use a blade to just compare your fists and feet, you can also be accompanied. ”

Tuoba Cheng's face froze, and when he saw Xiao Lian so arrogant, he was very angry in his heart: "That king's knife is here!" ”

Xiao Lian walked to Gongziyu's desk while holding his sleeves, looked at Jackal Yuwei behind Gongziyu and smiled slightly: "Little friend, borrow your sword and use it." ”

Jackal Yu gritted his teeth angrily, Xiao Lian could still think about the unhappiness of coming to him at this time, and called himself a child. "I don't ......"

Gongzi Yu glanced at Jackal Yu lightly. Jackal Feather had no choice but to swallow the second half of his sentence into his stomach, and angrily handed out his saber.

Xiao Lian took the jackal's sword and stood in front of Tuoba Cheng upright. He rolled up his sleeves to reveal his strong forearms. As soon as Tuoba Cheng saw the muscles in his arm, he could see that Xiao Lian was different from the Hanchen he had come into contact with before.

Tuoba Cheng raised the knife in his hand to his chest: "Rest assured, Heavenly Master, this king will definitely show mercy to his subordinates and not hurt your life." ”

Xiao Lian smiled slightly, and with a shake of his long sword, he stabbed towards Tuoba Cheng.

Tuoba Cheng was strong, and the horizontal knife blocked Xiao Lian's sword.

Vigorously from Tuoba Cheng's knife to Xiao Lian's sword. Tuoba Cheng only blocked it with a horizontal knife, but with seventy percent of his strength, Xiao Lian already felt that his arm was numb. Xiao Lian's eyes were slightly condensed, Tuoba Cheng's strength was not weak, but his strength and skills were not refined, his first warrior of the Northern Wei Dynasty was obviously all based on this brute force.

At this time, the swords were connected, and Xiao Lian could easily unload Tuoba Cheng's strength as long as he turned the sword body lightly, and the long sword tilted along the blade and slid onto Tuoba Cheng's right wrist.

But Xiao Lian didn't move, just fought with force. In terms of strength alone, where is Xiao Lian's opponent of Tuoba Cheng, a reckless man, he was immediately shocked back by Tuoba Cheng three steps.

Tuoba Cheng looked at Xiao Lian contemptuously: "It turned out to be just a showcase." ”

Tuoba Hong, who had been frowning slightly, saw Tuoba Cheng retreat Xiao Lian with a move, and his tightly knit brows relaxed.

Xiao Lian stood on top of the main hall, his sword hand trembling slightly, but although his words were appreciating Tuoba Cheng, his tone seemed to be quite annoyed: "King Rencheng is worthy of being the first warrior of Great Wei." ”

Gongzi Yu lowered his head, put a round and clear grape into his mouth, and whispered in Jackal Yu's ear with a smile: "It's a pity that he doesn't sing opera." ”

Tuoba Cheng saw that Xiao Lian was a straw bag, and laughed: "This king will take off your mask of pretending to be a ghost and come to see the true face of the Heavenly Master." ”

"Eh, why should King Ren be like this?" Tuoba Hong saw that Tuoba Cheng wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue, and opened his mouth to stop it.

Tuoba Cheng looked at Tuoba Hong unwillingly: "Your Majesty, is this not over yet?" ”

Tuoba Hong said gently: "Heavenly Master is not a military general, so it's not surprising that you can't win. If you are unforgiving, it will seem that we are stingy. ”

Tuoba Cheng Qi knotted, he originally wanted to use Xiao Lianzhen to shock the Hanchen present, but he didn't expect it to end like this. Tuoba Cheng turned his head and glared at Xiao Lian angrily, and said, "Waste." ”

The sound was not loud, but it just reached Xiao Lian's ears.

Xiao Lian pretended not to hear, turned around and walked to Gongzi Yu and returned the sword to Jackal Yu.

Gongzi Yu spit out the grape seeds, lowered his eyes and said, "Yes, this king underestimates you." ”

Xiao Lian said with a smile: "The four kings are too famous, and the poor road has to think about it in front of the Buddha tonight." ”

Gongzi Yu smiled slightly and poured himself a glass of wine: "Okay." ”

Tuoba Hong said to Xiao Lian gently: "Heavenly Master, the king of Rencheng is a good martial artist, you don't have to take it to heart. ”

Xiao Lian said respectfully: "The poor road is willing to bow to the wind. ”

"Heavenly Master, I have admired the West Mansion of Great Qi for a long time, and the Heavenly Master was also a member of the West Mansion. There are also famous Confucians in my dynasty who want to discuss a lesson or two with the Heavenly Master. ”

Xiao Lian hid half of his face behind the mask, hiding his toothache expression cleanly. In order to let the ghost-faced Langjun enter the court, Xiao Daoci coincidentally chose the West Mansion. has served as a ghost-faced Langjun, and I don't know how many people have changed in Li Fan's generation. Even Li Fan may not know about the West Mansion, but he may not even remember what poems he once wrote "himself".

Xiao Lian sighed and said, it seems that he has to memorize poems. Li Bai is sorry, Du Fu is sorry, Bai Juyi, I was wrong......
