In the afternoon, Ah Zheng said that he was going, how could he get rid of Jinnian's sticky kraft candy, so he had to take her with him. Shu Yu, Shen Yanling and Ning Er were not interested in such a banquet, so only Ah Zheng took Jinnian to the banquet. When the two entered the palace, the palace banquet had not yet begun, Jin Nian and his acquaintances went to play, and Ah Zheng sat down alone in the men's area.

Ah Zheng came back because of Chu Yangcheng, but after sitting down, he didn't see Chu Yangcheng, so he couldn't help frowning, and asked people to ask if Chu Yangcheng was here. It wasn't until the banquet was about to start that Chu Yangcheng was late, and when he saw Ah Zheng in the middle of the banquet, he gave Ah Zheng a smile and signaled Ah Zheng to rest assured.

Seeing this, Ah Zheng frowned, if Chu Yangcheng had a plain attitude, Ah Zheng would not be worried, and now he deliberately comforted himself like this, making Ah Zheng suspect that Chu Yangcheng would do something stupid.

The singing and dancing at the banquet is pleasing to the eye, but Ah Zheng has been indispensable to participate in the palace banquet once or twice a year since he was a child, and he only feels that the palace banquet is almost the same, which is really not interesting. glanced at the table, probably Jinlong and Beirong have a bad relationship, and there is such an embarrassing princess as Princess Mingyang, the emperor did not invite many people, just some ministers and family members, as for the clan relatives, basically only Ah Zheng's generation came to participate.

Chu Yangcheng sat opposite Ah Zheng, except for saying hello to Ah Zheng, he sat there absentmindedly and barely spoke. Ah Zheng's eyes kept looking at Chu Yangcheng until Chu Yangcheng left the table halfway, Ah Zheng thought about it, but didn't catch up, and called the secret guard to follow secretly, and if there was anything, he would report it.

Looking at the song and dance performance in front of him, Ah Zheng felt bored, so he saw all the dancing girls in the hall retreat, and after that, a woman in red makeup walked to the center and bowed to the emperor Ying Ying in the hall. Ah Zheng looked, although he was veiled, he could still see at a glance that the person standing in the middle was Chu Yangcheng.

At this time, Chu Yangcheng was dressed in a bright red brocade robe, her hair was only tied up with red satin, and her face was covered with a red veil, she was not a familiar person, and she couldn't recognize her at all. Ah Zheng didn't have much impression of Chu Weiyan in the past, after pretending to be Chu Yangcheng, she was all a gentle and humble gentleman, that is, clothes, except for court clothes, basically a simple white robe, if it is not familiar to people, there is a little bit of a fairy beauty. But at this time, she was wearing red makeup, but she gave people a bewitching feeling.

Ah Zheng frowned and stared at Chu Yangcheng who was dressed in red makeup, he knew that Chu Weiyan was the first beauty at the beginning, but he didn't expect her to have such a bewitching temperament. Chu Yangcheng didn't know if he noticed Ah Zheng's gaze, and gave a salute to the emperor above, and then, the music sounded, and Chu Yangcheng danced alone in the hall.

Different from the light song and dance just now, Chu Yangcheng hunted in red, raised red yarn, and danced like a shock, so that the people in the hall couldn't help but be intoxicated, so that the music stopped, and when Chu Yangcheng knelt down elegantly in the hall, the people in the hall did not react.

Ah Zheng didn't know what Chu Yangcheng was going to do, so he subconsciously looked in the direction of King Beirong, and sure enough, he saw that King Beirong raised his eyebrows, and his face was dark.

Ah Zheng's gaze did not leave Chu Yangcheng, and he felt that someone behind him was pulling his sleeve, and he couldn't help but look back, but it was a maid dressed in Beirong costume. Seeing Ah Zheng looking back at her, the woman showed a trace of panic, but she still tried to calm her mood, controlled her nervousness, and said to Ah Zheng: "Lord Shizi, the slave maid has something to say to Shizi, and I ask Shizi to borrow a step to speak." ”

Ah Zheng frowned, a little unsure of what the maid meant, and even more worried about Chu Yangcheng in front of him, but listened to the maid continue: "It's related to Prime Minister Chu." ”

Ah Zheng stared at the maid's eyes, but saw that although she was a little afraid, she still refused to flinch, so she stood up and walked outside, and the maid hurriedly followed.

Walking to an inaccessible corner, Ah Zheng turned around and said to the maid: "No one will come to disturb here, if you have anything to say, just say it!"

The maid knelt down and saluted Ah Zheng before saying, "Please save the princess!"

Ah Zheng knew that this was Princess Mingyang's maid and should have been brought from Jinlong, but from this visit of Beirong, King Beirong should not be bad for Princess Mingyang, so he asked: "Isn't your princess good?

The maid didn't know whether to believe Ah Zheng, or if she was really desperate, and told Ah Zheng all the causes and consequences. It turned out that Princess Mingyang had always liked the real Chu Yangcheng, although Chu Yangcheng did not pick it out, but he did not object to it, and at that time, almost the emperor acquiesced to Chu Yangcheng's son-in-law. But just five years ago, the current King of Beirong, the then Prince of Beirong, came to Beijing and took a fancy to Chu Weiyan.

Later, for some reason, King Beirong wanted to poison Chu Weiyan, but Chu Yangcheng and Chu Weiyan were twins and looked almost identical. When Chu Yangcheng had not yet been crowned, and Chu Xuanyan had not yet been crowned, when the king of Beirong was poisoned, he mistakenly thought that Chu Yangcheng was highly poisoned. At that time, Chu Xuanyan and Princess Mingyang saw Chu Yangcheng being tortured to the point of being inhuman, and begged Chu Xuanyan to kill him. Chu Xuanyan couldn't do it, and in the end, it was Princess Mingyang who killed Chu Yangcheng with her own hands.

Chu Yangcheng's death had a great impact on Chu Weiyan and Princess Mingyang, Chu Weiyan began to pretend to be his brother from then on, wanting to avenge his brother, and because his brother died tragically because of her, he has always felt regretful and guilty. And Princess Mingyang was even more resolute, when Beirong proposed to Jinlong, Princess Mingyang proposed to Beirong herself, and the purpose was to personally avenge Chu Yangcheng.

Ah Zheng clenched his fists and asked the maid, "What do they want to do?"

"Use your body as bait to lure the people behind the ghosts to show up and cut down the grass and eradicate the roots!" replied the maid.

"What did you say?" Ah Zheng looked up at the maid, but saw the maid take out a letter and hand it to Ah Zheng.

Ah Zheng looked at the familiar handwriting, and unfolded the letter paper with a slightly trembling hand, but saw that it was written: "Xu Zheng, this may be the last time I will write to you." I know I've failed you, but I don't have any other choice. The person who died back then should have been me, but because I was greedy for fun, I left for a while, and my brother died tragically, and I will never let go of this knot. This time is my only chance, and I believe that you will definitely help me do the follow-up, which is the greatest comfort to me. Since my brother died, I thought I would never have love again, I'm sorry, I left you alone, you are so good, there will definitely be someone who will accompany you for a lifetime, I will bless you no matter hell or heaven. ”

Ah Zheng held the thin letter paper in his hand tightly, ignored the maid behind him, and walked calmly towards the banquet hall. From a distance, I saw Chu Yangcheng, who was standing alone in the hall, slowly unwrapping his veil, revealing that beautiful face. looked at the king of Beirong, and sure enough, he saw that he clenched the porcelain cup in his hand with a gloomy face, and beside him, Princess Mingyang showed a strange smile, and when the king of Beirong noticed her strangeness and looked back, he quickly pulled out the dagger and stabbed it into the chest of the king of Beirong.

The change was sudden, and before the people in the palace could react, King Beirong had fallen in a pool of blood. And at this moment, a group of black-clothed people suddenly rushed out, attacking Chu Yangcheng extremely quickly.

Chu Yangcheng hooked his lips and smiled, pulled out the soft sword on his waist, and quickly shot back, looking at Ah Zheng's direction, revealing a hint of a smile.

Ah Zheng had a bad premonition, only to see Chu Yangcheng smile at him, his lips moved slightly, he understood Chu Yangcheng's lip shape, four words, 'help me deal with the aftermath'. Ah Zheng rushed towards Chu Yangcheng quickly, he didn't care about anything big or not, he only knew, but mortals always have a chance to live.

Ah Zheng grabbed in front of Chu Yangcheng, and embarrassedly stopped Chu Yangcheng's soft sword stabbing at him, and roared angrily: "Bastard, what do you want to do?"

Chu Yangcheng tried hard to break away from Ah Zheng, but after several efforts in vain, he had to sigh: "They asked my blood to open a treasure, five years ago, it was because of this that they poisoned me and wanted me to be subject to them." But I don't know why, the poison will come down on my brother. Do you remember that Xiaoyu's father said that what the ghosts wanted was never a country, and according to Yuexi, they got a treasure and wanted to open it with my blood. ”

"So you're going to kill yourself and stop their thoughts?" Ah Zheng said angrily, "You haven't thought about it, can I protect you?"

Chu Yangcheng looked at Ah Zheng's angry handsome face and said with a smile: "I know you will protect me, but I don't want to implicate you." When his brother died, what he regretted the most was that Yuexi saw his misery, so that Yuexi did everything to avenge him. Xu Zheng, I don't want to follow in my brother's footsteps. ”

Ah Zheng was silent for a moment, glanced at the group of black-clothed people who came over, and said to Chu Yangcheng: "Go back and settle accounts with you, don't do stupid things again, if you dare to commit suicide, I will dare to bury you!"

Chu Yangcheng sighed, she knew that Ah Zheng had always been a person who did what he said, since he said such a thing, if he really committed suicide, he was afraid that he would really go with him, so he had to wave his sword to meet the enemy. At this time, Chu Yangcheng raised his eyes to look at the situation in the hall, but saw the ministers and family members in the hall, their eyes were strangely sluggish, like marionettes, and they surrounded them step by step, while the emperor and the crown prince looked at the chaos in the hall with solemn faces.

Ah Zheng frowned, and swept it carefully, he always felt that the master of the ghost snake was not the king of Beirong, at this time, the king of Beirong was lying in a pool of blood, but it didn't seem to affect their plan in the slightest, so, who is the real person behind the ghost dragon? And what kind of relationship is the so-called treasure, as well as the long snake fruit, plus Chu Yangcheng's blood? Could it be that getting that mysterious treasure can really control the world?

After a moment of silence, Ah Zheng suddenly spoke: "The long snake fruit is in my hands, don't you want it?"
