Chapter 123: The Great Feast Begins
Another day passed quickly.
At noon on the third day, the banquet at the palace was about to begin.
At this time, the palace was full of traffic, and the envoys of various countries, as well as the people of the major sects, all rushed to enter the palace, and then went to the main hall under the guidance of the palace attendants.
Chu Chennan also entered the palace with an invitation card and walked inside with the flow of people.
I have to say that the strength of the ancient sword country is indeed not weak, just looking at the envoys who came this time, it really feels like all countries are coming to court.
"Young Master Chu!"
A woman's voice came from the front, and he raised his head and said indifferently: "It turned out to be Princess Wushuang, polite." ”
"It's only been a few days since I saw him, why did he get angry, does Young Master Chu really hate Wushuang so much?"
Huoyun Wushuang looked pitiful.
"How noble the princess is, I'm an ordinary ordinary person, how can I hate the princess. ”
"Since you don't hate it, then don't reject people thousands of miles away, it's too sad, don't you know, our people in Huoyun Country have no status here, since I came to the Ancient Sword Kingdom, I have suffered a lot from the eyes of those princes and ministers, as well as the harem concubines, it's too annoying. ”
Huoyun Wushuang bit his lip and gasped: "Young Master Chu, you still come to help me, we finally belong to the same country, can you really watch me being bullied?"
"Hehe, the princess looks like this, let's let the prince of the east see more, I believe that he will pity you even more. ”
Chu Chennan was unmoved, his figure flashed around the woman, and he continued to walk forward with a light smile.
"Damn!"
Huoyun Wushuang gritted his teeth in anger.
She didn't understand, which man was usually in front of her, not confused, why was this guy in front of him like a stone man, as if he had no lust at all?
In the main hall, the huge council hall was full of tables and chairs, and many envoys had already taken their seats.
It can be seen that everyone's seats are arranged in advance.
The throne located directly in front naturally belongs to Dongfang Mingxin, the monarch of the Ancient Sword Kingdom, but at this moment the throne is empty, and it is obvious that Dongfang Mingxin has not yet arrived.
On the left and right sides of the throne are the ministers of the ancient sword kingdom, as well as the envoys of various countries.
Chu Chennan was among them, and saw Huoyun Wushuang, Dongfang Yuheng, and Ge Biwang, who he had seen before.
That Ge Biwang also seemed to notice him, his eyes were meaningful, and he didn't know what he was thinking?
And the position below the ministers belongs to the people of the major sects.
Chu Chennan found the position that belonged to the Extreme Dao Martial Sect and sat down casually.
This is the alliance of all the nations, of course, not any sect is qualified to enter.
The people who can be invited are all the top ten sects in various countries, and the Extreme Dao Martial Sect can only be ranked in the middle and upper class among these sects, so Chu Chennan's position is not at the top.
But he didn't care, he didn't really want to join the alliance anyway.
Today is just to see the strength of the countries, by the way, taste the wine and food of the Ancient Sword King's Palace, and when he is full of food and drink, he is ready to pat his ass and leave.
Time passed slowly, and more people gradually entered the main hall.
The scene was very lively, everyone knew each other, they were talking to each other, and there were many discussions.
Chu Chennan didn't pay attention to anyone, tasted dim sum and drank tea by himself, waiting for the banquet to officially open.
But at this moment, the words of the person at the table next to him caught his attention.
"Have you heard, recently there seems to be a thief in the palace of the ancient sword country, and all the precious medicinal materials in the palace treasure house have been swept away. ”
"I also heard that that thief is really bold, he even dared to enter the Ancient Sword King's Palace, and he was not afraid that Dongfang Mingxin would kill him. ”
"I think this person is very capable, after all, there are many masters in the Ancient Sword King Palace, and it's not just anyone who can sneak in and steal things. ”
"I do have some ability, but I don't know where this thief came from?"
Chu Chennan frowned when he heard this, because he subconsciously thought of Old Man Guiyun.
"It can't be that old guy, didn't he leave the inn and enter the palace?"
......
The harem is where the concubines live.
All of them are women from the king's heart, and men outside are absolutely forbidden to enter.
Therefore, although the palace was full of guests today, it was always quiet, except for the occasional passage of palace maids and eunuchs.
Dongfang Mingxin's favorite concubine, Li Guifei lives in Qionghua Palace.
At this time in the palace, Dongfang Mingxin had just sorted out the royal robe: "Ai Concubine, the widow still has to go to receive the envoys, so he left first, prepare the wine and food tonight, and the widow will still come to accompany you." ”
"Yes, congratulations. ”
Li Guifei's coquettish salute, her voice was soft and glutinous, which made people's hearts itch.
This woman is also a rare beauty, although it is not as good as Linglong and Shao Qingyuan, but it is better than Huoyun Wushuang, and it is no wonder that Dongfang Mingxin will favor her alone.
Seeing that Dongfang Ming's heart was far away, Concubine Li Guifei waved to the palace maid: "You guys go down, don't come to disturb the palace if you have nothing to do." ”
"Yes!"
The palace maids withdrew, and Concubine Li Guifei stretched her waist and walked to the bed.
After tossing and turning all night yesterday, she barely fell asleep in the middle of the night, and now she feels sleepy, so she is going to make up for sleep first.
The beauty went to bed, and the tulle couldn't hide her graceful posture.
But she didn't notice that a pair of eyes outside the window were shining, taking in her charm.
"Hehe, this concubine of Dongfang Mingxin is really good, I am so excited to see the old man, tsk, it's a pity that the old man is not really a flower thief, he can't do those dirty things, he can only feast his eyes. ”
The old man Guiyun was on the window, pouting and twisting his buttocks, and his saliva was about to run down.
"The beautiful scenery in this palace is really wonderful, not only this Li Guifei, but also the other concubines are also very good, fortunately, the old man is not in a hurry to leave the royal capital, otherwise if you really can't see these beautiful scenery, you have to regret it for the rest of your life." ”
The old man licked his lips: "By the way, I heard the palace maid just now that Concubine Xiao Shu seems to be ordering someone to prepare bath water, quack, it seems that the old man can feast his eyes again, hurry up and take a look!"
After saying that, he was about to leave, but suddenly a strong wind swept by him, accompanied by a smell of medicine, as if this person had just come out of the medicine jar.
"Who?"
The old man Guiyun's face changed greatly, and he saw a middle-aged man pass by and slapped his palm on his waist.
Bang!
The powerful force exploded, and the old man Guiyun smashed through the window and shot straight at the bed.
Bang!
The bed broke directly, and the old man Guiyun and Concubine Li rolled together, and they were suddenly full of warm nephrite, and the fragrance was fragrant.
"Ah...... What kind of person are you, so bold, you dare to offend the concubine, you don't want to live, come on, come on, come on, there are assassins!"
Li Guifei woke up and saw that she was actually being held in her arms by a bad old man, and immediately screamed.
