Three days later.

The three princes sent people to the No. 7 courtyard of Ping'an Street to pick up Shi Zhiyi into the palace for a banquet. It was none other than Chen Zhiyi, the head of the guard who had escorted the three princes and the county lord of Yining to Puzhou. When Ning Yuchuan was attacked, he was also injured by the blow of the giant dragon Bai Chen, and he recuperated in Kyoto for several months, and recently recovered.

Chen Zhiyi is the general of the Fu family, and watching the Yu brothers and sisters grow up, it can be said that he regards them as his juniors. Because Shi Zhiyi saved the third prince in Tianshui City, Chen Zhiyi had an excellent impression of him, and now he went through a lot of hardships to escort the county lord of Yining back to Kyoto, which made him even more grateful.

When the two arrived at the gate of the palace, Yu Zhongqian and a little eunuch who passed on the message of Emperor Jingchang were already waiting there. The palace gate guards saw the third prince personally send this young man out the day before yesterday, and he waited here early today, so that a prince could be so attentive, and he couldn't help but secretly speculate about the identity of this young man.

The banquet only started in the evening, and it was still morning, so the two of them first returned to the Chonghua Palace where Yu Zhongqian lived to sit for a while. For some reason, when the two are together, there are always endless topics to talk about, and time seems to pass very quickly, and before you know it, the sky has darkened.

Emperor Jingchang's banquet was set up in the Xiandu Palace, and the vast majority of those who came to the banquet were the princes and family members of the royal Yu family, as well as the queen, the concubines and their relatives. It can be said that except for Shi Zhiyi, almost everyone is related to Emperor Jingchang.

When Shi Zhiyi entered the table, Emperor Jingchang had not yet arrived, and Yu Zhongqian kindly helped him introduce several uncles present one by one. In addition to Prince Rui Yu Lizhi, whom he had already seen, there were also Emperor Jingchang's second brother, Prince Mu Yu Limeng, and fourth brother, Prince Zheng Yu Lizun.

The age difference between the four brothers of Emperor Jingchang is not big, the eldest Emperor Jingchang has six out of fifty, and Prince Zheng Yu Lizun, who is the fourth in line, is also forty-seven years old. Among the four of their brothers, Prince Rui Yu Lizhi, who was able to kill four assassins in the Hall Realm with a single fishing rod, needless to say, Emperor Jingchang and Prince Zheng Yu Lizun could hardly feel the breath of any martial artist, and they had obviously been in the Holy Realm for a long time.

Only the youngest and most suave-looking fourth Prince Zheng, who is surging with blood and energy, is obviously still in the realm of ascending to the hall, and he can't control his breath with his divine thoughts.

Except for Prince Rui Yu Lizhi, the other three princes are obviously well-informed people, although they don't know the ins and outs of the matter, they have long known that the county lord of Yi Ning is escorted all the way back to Kyoto by the young city lord of Yunqi City.

Although they were polite to Shi Zhiyi one by one, saying something about hard work and high achievement, but when they saw his face that looked like Shi Huaichuan back then, they were more or less uncomfortable in their hearts, and obviously recalled some unpleasant experiences back then.

Subsequently, Shi Zhiyi also met the eldest prince Yu Zhongcheng and the second prince Yu Zhongjing. The eldest prince Yu Zhongcheng was born to the queen Daxi family, backed by the inheritance of tens of thousands of years of Daxi family and the royal Yu family, the top two of the eight families, and as the eldest son, Yu Zhongcheng from the birth, he took a good hand can not be better.

Obviously, the eldest prince himself did not have the slightest intention to hide this, although it was not domineering, but from the dress to every move, all of his body told his noble status as the son of the true dragon. Even if he saw a few imperial uncles, he just nodded his head, and the treatment Shi Zhiyi enjoyed was just a notched sound from his nose.

This is not to say that several princes are more modest and approachable than the eldest prince, but when they were still young and frivolous, they had more or less suffered the losses of a guy who was more crazy and arrogant than them, and Yu Wei was still there, so he was unconsciously polite to his son.

Contrary to the eldest prince, the second prince Yu Zhongjing is extremely introverted and low-key. If it weren't for Yu Zhongqian taking him forward to pay a visit, Shi Zhiyi would hardly have felt the existence of this person. Of course, this is not because his martial arts path has reached the holy level and can restrain his own aura, but because he sat there alone without saying a word, as if he had disappeared from the Immortal Capital Palace.

Shi Zhiyi glanced at him deeply, if he hadn't heard Beigong Zhao say that the second prince coveted the position of prince, and at the same time had personally experienced the pursuit and killing of the Beigong family, he would not have been able to connect the silent and elegant young man in front of him like a scholar from a humble family with the four words of cannibalism.

The banquet is about to begin, and everyone is seated.

After a while, I only heard the little eunuch singing a promise: "The saint has arrived!" but heard a rapid and brisk pace sound from outside the palace.

Everyone turned their heads to look, but it was a woman in a bright red dress with towering hair, in her early twenties, her appearance was extremely beautiful, but her whole body exuded a charm from the bone marrow. The long phoenix-like dress barely covered the key position on the chest, and the large white skin and a deep furrow on the chest were unscrupulously exposed to the air.

As she ran, countless jewels clinked at her wrists and ankles, like fairy music. A pair of jade rabbits on their chests rose and fell rhythmically, as if they would break free from the shackles of the phoenix feather dress at any time, which made everyone at the banquet excited.

However, the woman turned a blind eye to everyone's hot gaze, and only realized that she was the last to enter the table, so she looked a little embarrassed, and smiled at everyone in the banquet.

A smile is a hundred beautiful people, and a smile is a thousand cities.

Many men at the banquet were fascinated by this smile.

Under Shi Huaichuan's training, Shi Zhiyi has a good cultivation, has rich experience in fighting and surviving in various situations, and also has the psychological quality of being in danger and a kind and innocent heart.

But in terms of men and women, Shi Huaichuan has never taught him half a word, he has not been accompanied by his mother since he was a child, and all the uncles and uncles who come in and out of the city lord's mansion, and even the servants in the mansion are mostly men.

This situation caused Shi Zhiyi to have no concept of the emotions between men and women, so that he, who was extremely talented in the way of cultivation, also reacted indifferently to some hints and small emotions of Lord Yining.

Because in his consciousness, the concept of women is very vague, and he only knows that as a man, he should protect girls and not bully them, which is also the reason why he fled in embarrassment when he found out that he had accidentally injured a woman in "Zhu Mansion" that day.

As for the relationship between men and women, he did not have any way to understand it, let alone think about it.

And the appearance of this woman, and her smile, made Shi Zhiyi feel a blushing heartbeat for the first time, and found that girls can be so charming!

This is not to say that this woman is more beautiful than the lord of Yining, in fact, Chunlan and Qiuju have their own merits between the two. But after all, the county lord of Yi Ning is only sixteen years old, and she is still a budding flower and bone that has not yet matured, and this woman is six or seven years older than Yi Ning, which is the most gorgeous and glorious moment in a woman's life.
