Chapter 168: Going to the Banquet

In the early morning of the next day, when Li Tiantu, who was full of alcohol, returned to the door of the mansion and saw Su Ling'er, whose eyes were red and seemed to have not slept all night, he said unconsciously and emptyly: "Ling'er, you didn't sleep last night?" ”

Su Ling'er, who had a cold face, didn't say a cruel word after all, and held back for a long time before saying, "Childe, no matter where you go in the future, Ling'er must follow you." ”

Li Tiantu sighed and said, "Hey! Silly girl, go to sleep. ”

Although she didn't directly get an affirmative answer from Li Tiantu, Su Ling'er, who had already figured out her son-in-law's temperament, finally had a hint of joy on her face, and walked away briskly.

Li Tiantu returned to the study and immediately summoned Gong Tu.

Li Tiantu sat on the chair and rubbed his faint head after a hangover, and said casually: "I'm still used to the days in the house." ”

Gong Tu nodded, but he didn't answer, he was a man of few words.

Recently, he has lived too peacefully, and he is really bored. He was also very worried that if he continued like this, he might not even be qualified to be a killer.

As if he had seen through Gong Tu's thoughts, Li Tiantu said again: "All the forces of the Heavenly Demon Sect have shrunk in Jiangnan, I want you to go to Jiangnan and monitor the Heavenly Demon Sect on my behalf." ”

Li Tiantu paused deliberately, and said in an accentuated tone: "You should know that this errand has a certain degree of danger, and the Heavenly Demon Sect Master and the Heavenly Demon High Priest are both existences that are not weaker than the peak of the Earth List masters. ”

Gong Tu's expression was calm, and he said lightly: "I will go to Jiangnan immediately." ”

Li Tiantu secretly appreciated Gong Tu's simplicity and clarity, threw Gong Tu a swarthy token, and said in a deep voice: "After you go to Jiangnan, find the head of the Xia family in Yangzhou and let him assist you." Also, take care of yourself, it's just a surveillance, and you must not act rashly! ”

Gong Tu held the spirit card in the palm of his hand and nodded.

Linghu innocently came one after another, bringing a big red invitation that made Li Tiantu feel familiar.

Li Tiantu frowned and said, "What's the matter?" He could see that it was a special invitation for the small building in the middle of the lake.

Linghu innocent originally felt inexplicable, he knew that someone from Xiaozhu in the middle of the lake had sent an invitation yesterday, how could there be another one today.

But after listening to the explanation, he was relieved. It's just that he doesn't understand how the people in the small building in the middle of the lake know that the landlord lost yesterday's invitation.

Linghu innocently saw that Li Tiantu was behaving abnormally at this time, and his first reaction was that the person in the small building in the center of the lake was lying, so he had to bite the bullet and say: "The person who sent the invitation in the small building in the center of the lake said that the owner accidentally lost yesterday's invitation, so he sent another one today." ”

After a short period of contemplation, Li Tiantu figured out the key, he must have been seen by Yan Mengyu's people when he went to Zhufu yesterday.

Yan Mengyu's mind is so delicate, she is afraid that she will not go!

If Zhu Fatzi knew that he had received another invitation, he should be very happy.

The sky was getting dark, and Li Tiantu originally thought of a reason to persuade Su Ling'er to stay in the mansion obediently, but to his surprise, Su Ling'er didn't take the initiative to follow this time.

Old Yu Tou drove a horse-drawn carriage across the slightly icy and snowy city avenue, heading towards Weiming Lake in the western suburbs of Beijing.

The banquet venue was in the Yanyu Building behind the small building in the middle of the lake, and Li Tiantu met many familiar faces as soon as he entered the door.

In addition to Ding Yifan, the adopted son of the general who did not know what to do, the other three were impressively listed, chatting with several other noble sons who could not be named.

Zhu Wenwu arrived very early and was watching calligraphy and painting with a handsome man dressed as a scholar.

To Li Tiantu's surprise, Bei Mingyan and Ni Xiaodie were actually there, accompanying a tall woman who was as elegant as a fairy, delicate and pleasant, and caressed Yan Mengyu's guqin.

As the host, Yan Mengyu looked a little lost, leaning on the balcony on the second floor, leaning against the railing, looking at the lively crowd below, but his thoughts didn't know where to go.

One static and one moving, creating a sharp contrast.

Li Tiantu didn't fully enter the door, so his arrival didn't attract people's attention.

Quietly came to Yan Mengyu's side on the second floor, Li Tiantu said softly: "As the host, I didn't greet the guests below, but ran upstairs to hide from the leisure." ”

As soon as the words came out, even Li Tiantu felt that he could behave so easily in the face of Yan Mengyu, just like seeing an old friend for many years, maybe he really let go from the moment he decided to go to the banquet.

Some Yan Mengyu, who was outside the world, was slightly surprised when she heard this, and her intuition told her that Li Tiantu had changed, and the beauty tapped the direction of the downstairs with her right index finger, and said bitterly: "You see, those young heroes downstairs are all here for the Nine Princesses, and the two most famous talents of the two Heavenly Empires are here." ”

Li Tiantu didn't agree, and stared at the ninth princess who was caressing the qin for a long time, before he said lightly: "Not really, at least half of the downstairs also has thoughts about you." ”

Looking at the distance that Li Tiantu deliberately maintained from him, Yan Mengyu suddenly felt angry in his heart, and deliberately got close to Li Tiantu, so that the clothes of the two had already had deep contact, which frightened Li Tiantu and finally did not move.

Yan Mengyu pouted and smiled, looked downstairs, and laughed at herself: "Am I that terrible?" Half of the people below are here for me, but they're just passing by. You can go below and ask, who would dare to ask the former wife of Li Tiantu, the owner of the drizzle building and the commander of the Praetorian Guard of the Beijing Division? Including Nangong Huai, the young master of the self-proclaimed and extraordinary Nangong family. ”

Li Tiantu heard the resentment in Yan Mengyu's words, although he knew that she was exaggerating, but he didn't break it, he just smiled bitterly.

However, Zhu Wenwu's eyes were sharp, and after seeing Li Tiantu, he exclaimed, and he no longer appreciated the painting, and climbed the stairs with a rolling belt.

The originally lively hall on the first floor suddenly quieted down due to Zhu Wenwu's shouting, and the eyes of the audience looked at Li Tiantu and Yan Mengyu on the second floor.

It's just that everyone's eyes are so intriguing, Li Tiantu suddenly felt that his scalp was numb, this was the scene he didn't want to see, and at this moment he had the urge to kick Zhu Wenwu.

Zhu Wenwu, who was not aware of Li Tiantu's complicated mood at all, came to Li Tiantu out of breath, and said excitedly for a long time: "Big brother, I knew that you would not ignore me." ”

Li Tiantu felt helpless, leaned close to Zhu Fatzi, and whispered in his fat ear: "If you are still as unproductive as you were just now, the Ninth Princess will be completely useless." ”

As if in order to confirm Li Tiantu's words, when Zhu Fatzi turned his head to look down, he saw the ninth princess frowning with a look of disdain. His original excitement for the arrival of Li Tiantu was suddenly lost.

Li Tiantu relieved the siege at a critical time, put his arm around Zhu Fatzi's shoulder, and said comfortingly: "Let's go, let's go down first." ”

The Northern Immortal was the first to greet him, and the scholar who had just enjoyed the painting with Zhu Fatzi followed.

Li Tiantu scolded with a smile: "You kid is heavy on sex and light on friends, when you arrive in Beijing, you don't go to see your brother first, but you run to the first beauty in Beijing." ”

Bei Mingyan looked indifferent, and said in a low voice: "I want to get to you first, but this aunt and grandmother will come here first." ”

Li Tiantu didn't answer, but the smile on his face became more and more intense.

Soon, the Northern Immortal understood why.

Ni Xiaodie, who came with the Ninth Princess in her arms, glared at Bei Ying, and at the same time was dissatisfied with Li Tiantu: "Brother Li, I don't know what's going on, Brother Yan has to become a little bolder every time he sees you, do I want to consider letting him break off his friendship with you." ”

looked at what Ni Xiaodie said seriously, but Li Tiantu, who knew that she was a person, touched his nose and said with a wry smile: "Well, it's okay." Don't let him hurt friends like this. ”

As he spoke, he looked at the Ninth Princess beside Ni Xiaodie, bowed slightly, and said lightly: "The commander of the Praetorian Guard, Li Tiantu, has seen Her Royal Highness the Princess. ”
