Chapter Twenty-Eight: Self-Inflicted Disgrace

As soon as the dinner party began, Ashina Mule, the first Turkic warrior, jumped out and shouted at Shen Lingjun, not to get along with her, wanting to embarrass her.

Zhao Qi and the others have been with Shen Lingjun for a lot of time, and they know that Shen Lingjun looks good-tempered, but in fact, he has a bad foundation and a very black belly.

Sure enough, Shen Lingjun narrowed his eyes, "Aren't you Turks born?" ”

Everyone chuckled, and Ashina Mule was choked and speechless for a while.

"Bang~", Ashina Mueller slapped the table and stood up, "I'm going to duel with you, and the one who loses will get down." ”

Lord Wang and Lord Zhu glanced at each other, and they both felt that this Ashina Mueller was determined to make trouble on purpose. I know it's not easy to do this errand!

The two adults wiped the beads of sweat from their foreheads and persuaded: "Today, the emperor invited Lord Shen and General Zhao to attend together, in order to give the envoys a clean sweep and show that my Datang welcomes you." ”

Lord Wang deliberately took Zhao Qi out to talk about it, Ashina Mueller didn't eat this, he arched his hand, "General Zhao, I fought with him, it's amazing, but we can't eat at the same table with women, since you female official is holding a knife, you should be a practitioner, let her compete with me, and the one who loses will kowtow to the other party three times, and get out from here." ”

The main thing is that he saw that Shen Lingjun was a short woman, she must be easy to bully, and it didn't matter if she was beaten or not, the important thing was to give a few officials in Datang, especially Zhao Qi, a look at Ma Wei.

Shen Lingjun lazily poked a chopsticks fish, "I said big guy, how can a woman offend you, could it be that you still despise me towards His Majesty the Emperor?" If the emperor invites a banquet in person another day, what will happen if you go down by yourself? ”

Ashina Mueller paused for a moment, then waved his hand, admitted his death, and said: "Anyway, I don't care, you just fight with me." ”

At this moment, anyone with a discerning eye can see that he is not looking for trouble for no reason, he obviously said it before, and he is trying to find something.

In fact, in addition to Shen Lingjun on this table, there is also a woman - the envoy of Tubo.

However, the envoy was very low-key, and had nothing to do with himself, so he drank and ate alone, and did not make a sound.

Zhao Qi hugged his arms, saw that the Turkic envoy bowed his head and drank, ignored it, and knew what their idea was, and said to Shen Lingjun, "It's better for you to play with him, don't waste it." ”

Shen Lingjun sighed, knowing that he couldn't eat a good meal, he supported his side face with one hand, looked at Ashina Mule, and said with interest: "Hey, let's discuss, don't you fight?" ”

Ashina Mule paused for a moment, and then said disdainfully: "I'll let you have a hand." ”

"Alas......" Shen Lingjun sighed again, stood up slowly, didn't take a knife, and walked to the middle of the venue, "As the saying goes, a gentleman doesn't move his mouth, and there is something to say, if you can make noise, don't do it, everything is precious to peace, you rarely come to the Tang Dynasty, I will take you around when you turn around, how good it is to be harmonious, why not fight and kill." ”

Automatically ignoring Shen Lingjun's long-winded words, Ashina Mueller snorted in his nose, "You don't take a knife?" ”

Shen Lingjun saw that he couldn't hide, so he just beat it, and at most he went back and ate a few more apricot yellow cakes to make up for it!

"No," Shen Lingjun waved his hand.

Ashina Mueller stood up and was bigger, tall and strong, and the ground felt a little shaky when he took a step, and he also threw the weapon in his hand, "Then I will compete with you in fist and foot kung fu." ”

As he spoke, he punched him, and wondered why Shen Lingjun was still standing still, but when he punched it, he found that it was not hit at all, and when he looked at it, the person was gone.

The Turkic envoy frowned, but he didn't expect this woman to be a master, he raised his head, met Zhao Qi's cold gaze, smiled awkwardly, and seemed to have miscalculated, and was about to explain Ashina Mueller.

However, Ashina Mueller, who was in a hurry, could still hear others talking, he saw that he didn't swing a punch, and turned around and punched again, but it was still the same as just now, the fist passed and hit the air.

The others saw Shen Lingjun's red shadow flying, and the big guy couldn't figure out the south, south, west, and north.

At this time, a few families sighed in their hearts, fortunately, there was no first provocation just now, Datang really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, a female official's kung fu is so unfathomable.

Shen Lingjun probably felt that he had enough amusement, and raised his hand lightly, and the big man was slammed to the ground, and the floor shook three times.

Ashina Mueller got up, felt pain all over his body, and looked around in disbelief, was someone plotting against him?

The Turkic envoy asked someone to help Ashina Muller retreat, stood up and apologized with a smile, "I apologize for Ashina's sins, it's rude." ”

Lord Wang and Lord Zhu sneered in their hearts, and said with a smile on their lips: "Young people are energetic, learn from each other, you don't have to be serious, and Lord Shen won't take it to heart." ”

Shen Lingjun returned to his position and poked the fish with chopsticks.

An envoy from another country who watched the show said, "Didn't you just say who lost and kowtowed and rolled down?" ”

"Yes, yes," the others chimed in.

The Turks came to change their faces, and it became a joke when this was spread.

However, Ashina Muller is a straight gut, he also feels reasonable, if he loses, he loses, and he is willing to gamble and lose, even if he is unwilling, he must abide by the agreement.

So, he pushed away the two entourages and walked in front of Shen Lingjun, really kneeling.

"Hey~" Shen Lingjun dodged, and the person jumped to the side.

The foreigners frowned, their movements so fast that they couldn't be seen at all.

Shen Lingjun raised his foot and resisted Ashina's body that was about to kneel, "I don't want to be your parent, don't worship me." ”

Lord Wang also came over and persuaded a few words, and this matter will not be over.

Afterwards, everyone raised their glasses and drank again, as if what had just happened had not happened, but at this moment, some of the wine in the mouths of those foreigners was not a taste.

After three rounds of drinking, there was still no shadow of the Silla envoy.

A secret guard ran over and whispered a few words to Luo Cheng, and Luo Cheng hurriedly said to Zhao Qi: "General, something is wrong." ”

Although his voice was very soft, Shen Lingjun was next to Zhao Qi, so he naturally heard it, "What's wrong?" ”

Luo Cheng frowned, "Just now Liang Yue said that Fifteen of Silla's envoys and his entourage were killed. ”

"What?!" Zhao Qi and Shen Ling were both shocked.

Zhao Qi asked Luocheng to inform Lord Wang, and he and Shen Ling both went to the Hebi Post House first.

But before he left the palace gate, someone ran over, it was another personal guard of the emperor, Yuejian.

Mei Jian and Yue Jian are twins, the two look very similar, but their tempers are very different, compared to Mei Jian's cold, Yue Jian is a natural smile, but he can't laugh at the moment, "General Zhao, Lord Shen." ”

Shen Lingjun and Zhao Qi nodded and said hello, and Yuejian said: "The emperor already knows, this matter is very important, the emperor said, I hope the two adults will be cautious and find out the murderer as soon as possible, otherwise the emperor will not be able to explain it to the Silla Kingdom." ”

Shen Lingjun nodded and asked, "There is no one guarding the Hebi Post House, how did the murderer commit murder?" ”

Tsukimi frowned, "The Praetorian Guards around the post house are all dead, and the commander Du Ruo is seriously injured, and the people haven't woken up yet." ”

Du Ruo, Shen Lingjun and Zhao Qi tacitly glanced at each other, subtle and subtle.

"What's wrong?" Seeing that their expressions were different, Yuejian asked.

After being unable to tell her for a while, Shen Lingjun shook his head, "It's nothing, let's go to the scene first." ”

Tsukimi nodded, "Well, I'll go back first, and I'll contact you then." ”

When Shen Lingjun and Zhao Qi came to the door of the Hebi Post House, they were quite surprised to see Kagura coming over with Ye Qingzhi, "Qingzhi, why are you here?" ”

Kagura helped answer, "Miss Ye said that she was looking for something to do with you, so I just asked her to take a look, it seems to be the same situation as the killer you met before." ”

A few people went in, and when they saw the corpses on the ground, they knew what he meant, the same wounds as the dead in the Jin Mansion before, but these few were not poisoned, and it seemed that the killer kung fu was very high.

"When we found out that something was going on here, we caught a killer," Kagura said.

Zhao Qi looked around, "What about people?" ”

Kagura spread out her hand and pointed to the ground, "It's gone." ”

Shen Lingjun understood, "Invisible killer," no wonder he wanted to bring Ye Qingzhi over.

Ye Qingzhi squatted down and poked it with a small piece of dead branch, then dipped it on the handkerchief and smelled it, nodded, "The same poison, I was just about to tell you this," stood up and said to everyone: "This poison should be in the mouth, bite it in a hurry, and it will be poisonous when it encounters water, and the medicinal properties are very powerful, and people will be wiped out in an instant." ”

"That means just keep him from biting the poison in his mouth?" Shen Lingjun asked.

Ye Qingzhi nodded, "This poison has been lost for many years, but it seems that the poisons that have appeared recently are all ancient poisons. ”

Zhao Qi was not interested in the dead, so he asked Kagura to take people to get the corpses back to the Dali Temple, "It's not just to kill a few Silla envoys to do so many things." ”

Shen Lingjun thought for a moment, "The banquet is almost over, let's suppress the matter first, otherwise those foreigners will be in trouble." ”

"I let Luocheng and the play be arranged," Zhao Qi and the two walked out, scratching their faces, "It's only been a few days since I came back, and people die every day, it seems that I don't get along with this Luoyang fate." ”

It was getting late, and a crescent moon hung high in the sky, illuminating the entire main street.

Shen Lingjun said to Zhao Qi: "You send Qingzhi back first." ”

"Where are you going?" Ye Qingzhi looked at Zhao Qi, a little disgusted, and asked Shen Lingjun.

Zhao Qi sighed in injury, a stinky girl who didn't know what to do.

Shen Lingjun's fingers holding the knife unconsciously tapped a few times, "Hmm...... Go and check it out. ”

A wisp of wind passed, a black shadow fell, and Luo Cheng appeared in front of several people, "Bai Ma took his personal entourage to Qiwan Lane, and the others returned to the post house. ”

Shen Lingjun looked at him and was about to ask who Bai Ma was, but Luo Cheng first explained: "Tubo is coming. ”

"Oooh," then frowned, "Sevenbend Alley......"

Luo Cheng said: "It's the place you found, it looks like it's in a hurry, I let the play Shi and Liangyue follow." ”

Shen Lingjun touched his chin, "You just said that a few other entourages are back, why don't you catch them and ask, and by the way, search where they live." ”

L.A. opened his mouth wide, "That's not good." ”

Shen Lingjun shook his head and slapped him on the shoulder, "Use your brain, your brain," and turned around after speaking, "I'll go to Qiwan Lane first, you know how to deal with it." ”

Luocheng's face was full of black lines, and Zhao Qi said to him, "Didn't you just make a thief?" Find a few people with masks, pretend to be thieves and rob, and do things beautifully. ”

Luocheng supports the forehead, they are soldiers, pretending to be thieves to rob or something, is it really good? But he didn't say anything, and went to prepare right away.

Zhao Qi turned around to greet Ye Qingzhi and wanted to call her back together, but saw Ye Qingzhi looking at herself with a pair of bright eyes.

After a long time, Ye Qingzhi opened her mouth and said five words, "Sure enough, it's a hooligan." ”

Zhao Qi opened his mouth and said in his heart: Women are really unreasonable.
