Lunchtime feast. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The welcoming hall is full of tables and chairs, the delicacies of the mountains and seas are stacked high, the wine and wine glasses are overflowing, the guests are seated, before the chairman, the old city lord gets up to toast, says some words of gratitude and thanks, and then toasts three times in a row, the guests chant "long life 100 years old", "longevity is like a green pine" and so on, the atmosphere is as strong as fire for a while.

The city lord Mo is over sixty years old, although he has reached the sixtieth birthday, but his posture is tall, his body is strong, his black hair is not stained with silver, his long hair is fluttering, and his bearing is extraordinary, like a man of about forty, and his voice is like a bell, and he is full of confidence, which makes Li Xiaomu and others not surprised, and it is difficult to add the word "old" to his head.

After the toast, all the guests raised their glasses and drank freely, and the hall was full of joy.

Li Xiaomu and the five of them sat in a corner close to the chairman, eating and drinking with their heads bored, trying to avoid everyone's attention.

According to Li Xiaomu's meaning, choosing such a seat, it is called "putting death and resurrection", the closer to the danger, the less likely it is to attract the attention of the enemy, but if you hide too far, you may be searched by Mo Jiaxuan and his gang repeatedly.

It turned out that Li Xiaomu was right, at the far end of the lobby and outside the hall, more than a dozen guys dressed as servants were sneaky, interspersed with the crowd, looking at this for a while, and then at that, their eyes were gloomy, obviously looking for someone.

On the chairman, the people who sat with the city lord Mo Qi were all some people with heads and faces, among which Li Xiaomu knew several, including Liu Gongzi of "Tongshui City", Bai Lao of "Yangguanze", and Yan Wanliang, a wealthy man from the city.

Liu Yuan and Xiwen were also listed, and they were close to Mo Qi's side, which showed that the attention they received was extraordinary, Mo Jiahan was not on the table, wearing light armor, standing tightly behind his father, on guard, as if a great enemy was coming.

The other people present are also dignitaries, all dressed in brocade and gorgeous clothes, silk and satin.

To the surprise of Li Xiaomu and the others, Mo Jiaxuan actually sat in the most remote corner of the chairman, far away from his father, and the chair was back, and he didn't know if it was squeezed by others, or deliberately retreated, his face was ugly, depressed, powerless, and unenergetic, and he looked a little out of place.

Li Xiaomu finally stared at Mo Jiaxuan's back, the man with a short beard has not left his side, Li Xiaomu began to think about how to restrain Mo Jiaxuan quietly, the enemy is strong, it seems that it is absolutely not possible to use strong, and it is the best choice to use poison and drugs. But how to approach him has become the biggest problem at the moment.

The middle-aged man with a short beard is called Shang Youru, Li Xiaomu They learned through many investigations that this person has been by his side since Mo Jiaxuan returned from the "Cold Frontier" in the Northern Regions half a year ago.

Li Xiaomu also saw two people at the chairmanship, a sturdy man and an elegant and handsome son, who were the two people who had helped him beat "Yilan" before.

During the banquet, the city lord Mo Qi was quite respectful to these two people, not only toasting and smiling, but also introducing the people around him to the two one by one from time to time.

"These are the high-ranking disciples of the 'Tianhe faction', who act chivalrous and righteous, and love and compassion for the people......"

"These are generals from the frontier, guarding one side and driving out the Tartars......"

"These people are the great goodness of the 'mountain city', helping the needy, and making the rich more benevolent......"

"This is the dog Mo Jiahan, who is stupid and stupid, and follows his old father. Hehehe-"

Mo Qi turned around in a circle to introduce, but only missed Mo Jiaxuan, Li Xiaomu was surprised-could it be that this guy is the same as himself, he is also a mother who doesn't love his uncle and doesn't love him?

Sure enough, Mo Jiaxuan kept a cold face, and when Mo Qi went to toast to the elegant boy again, he seemed to be unable to help it, and snorted coldly, although the voice was small, but it still attracted the attention of the son, and the son smiled and said, "Uncle, this is-"

Mo Qi glanced at Mo Jiaxuan obliquely, "Rebel, don't you know how to count etiquette?

Mo Jiaxuan stood up and said, "I've bowed to Yuan Gongzi, below-"

"Brother Jiaxuan, is it?" the boy smiled and stood up, "We met when we were young, and that time with my father...... Hehe, it's been years. ”

"Oh, do you remember?" Mo Jiaxuan raised his eyebrows, "yes, it's been many years." ”

Li Xiaomu was stunned when he heard the word "father", and then heard Mo Qi's "haha" laugh and said: "I haven't seen you for a long time, is the emperor's dragon body good?"

The boy also laughed, "The Holy Communion is healthy, with your uncles helping to run the government and guard the border gates, how can his old man be bad?!"

Everyone at the table also laughed and was full of joy.

Li Xiaomu finally figured it out, it turned out that the elegant son was actually a prince, no wonder although he was weak, he had an extraordinary bearing, and everyone was like the stars holding the moon, no one dared to slack off.

Then I secretly inquired about the people around me, and then I learned that the son's surname is Yuan Xiaoren, and he is the son of the current emperor Lao'er, for some reason, he has not yet obtained the title; It is said that the commander is the three hundred "Golden Dragon Guard", specifically responsible for the defense of the inner city of the palace, as we all know, the "Golden Dragon Guard" is not only a high level of cultivation, but also wearing a blessing of powerful spells of the "Golden Dragon Armor", enough to be able to defeat a hundred, it can be seen that Hong Lianjie has won the emperor's trust and appreciation.

"I came with Uncle Hong this time, in addition to paying homage to Uncle Mo's birthday, there is also one important thing to do. Won Hyo-in said with a smile.

"Oh, what's the matter, can the city help?" asked Mo anxiously.

"It's a case. Yuan Hyo-in said.

"What kind of case, can the criminal be in my 'mountain city'?" Mo was stunned.

Yuan Xiaoren didn't answer immediately, and glanced at the other side intentionally or unintentionally, Mo Jiaxuan lowered his head immediately, and his face was cloudy.

"Hey, uncle's birthday, you and I won't mention those fights and killings for the time being-" Yuan Xiaoren smiled and raised his wine glass, "Come on, come on, drink and drink!"

"Yes, yes, drink—" The people around him echoed.

Li Xiaomu was thinking quickly in his heart, but he felt that Luo Shu'er secretly touched his arm, "Oh, they're here, what should I do?"

The dozen or so guys sent by Mo Jiaxuan had already searched the back row and were looking for it here, and one of them had been secretly looking at Li Xiaomu, as if he had found something wrong, and was signaling to his accomplices, seven or eight people were slowly approaching, and it had become a siege......
