Chapter 7: The Palace Banquet Begins
"Brother, why are you here?!" Mu Ziying looked at Mu Yan in surprise, as far as she knew, her brother had always pursued the principle of avoiding what he could and slipping away if he couldn't avoid this kind of banquet.
And Mu Yan on the side, looking at his sister's eyes when he looked at him for a while and looked at the sky for a while, he knew what Mu Ziying was thinking, raised his hand and pinched Mu Ziying's cheeks, which were still a little baby fat, and said funny: "Your brother, I can't come?" Mu Ziying hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, no, brother, of course you can come, hehe." Mu Ruoxuan shook his head helplessly when he looked at his sister's sneering appearance, and when he saw that the palace door was open, he picked up Mu Ziying and walked towards the palace. ,
The hall is brightly lit, and from a distance, it looks like a spreading red and yellow point of light.
At the banquet, a group of dancers with big red water sleeves twisted their waists and danced, everyone's seat was covered with a variety of exquisite dishes, the prince, the minister and the concubine talked and laughed and feasted, the sound of the collision of wine glasses and the reserved laughter drifted in the air, the sound of silk and bamboo was endless, it was really a song and dance, peaceful and prosperous. However, the emperor and queen are still in the future, and the banquet has not officially begun.
It's been a long time, and the emperor hasn't come yet, she doesn't think that Jun Ke'er will let go of such a great opportunity to deal with the Mu family, and she guesses what she is planning. Mu Ziying sat in her seat and thought so, but if she dared to calculate, then she would dare to let Jun Ke'er and her Jun family be ruined!!
Mu Yan on the side looked at Mu Ziying touching his chin, looking like he was thinking about something, and couldn't help asking: "Yingying, you" Before he finished speaking, he saw a familiar figure beckoning to him, so the words on his lips became "Yingying, you wait for me here, I'll go see a friend." ”
"Oh good, brother, go ahead, I'm going to find Sister Yuchen. After speaking, he got up and left, and left without waiting for Mu Yan's reply, Mu Yan looked at Mu Ziying's back gradually moving away, and shook his head helplessly, his sister is really
"Yan, what are you looking at? shouldn't you look at your sweetheart again?" Behind Mu Yan, a playful voice came, and this person was Xuanyuan Ya, one of Mu Yan's few friends.
Xuanyuan Ya looked at his friend who hadn't come over for a long time, and couldn't help but wonder, so he could only come over by himself. It's just that as soon as I walked over, I saw that my friend seemed to be looking at something, so I said something.
Mu Yan looked at the playful look on Xuanyuan Ya's face, and gave his friend a health ball, "What are you talking about, I was just looking at my sister just now." Unexpectedly, Xuanyuan Ya said again in an astonishing voice, "Sister, love sister?" Hearing Xuanyuanya's words, Mu Yan, who had always been known as an immortal, couldn't help but become angry.
Just as he was about to get angry, Xuanyuan Ya changed his previous playful look and said seriously, "I have found out about that matter." Hearing this, Mu Yan's anger was extinguished all of a sudden, and he said excitedly: "It's really ?!!!" Xuanyuan Ya nodded, and then said to Mu Yan: "But let's go out and talk about it, here" As he spoke, he looked around, Mu Yan remembered the environment they were in now, smiled awkwardly, and quietly left the Chonghua Hall with Xuanyuan Ya, but he didn't notice that after they left the table, four figures also followed and followed them.
Mu Yan and Xuanyuan Ya came to a remote and quiet place in the Chonghua Palace, and then they asked excitedly: "Back then, who was it!!"
"See for yourself. As he spoke, he took out a letter and handed it to Mu Yan, Mu Yan hurriedly opened it, the more he looked at it, the more angry he became, after reading it, Mu Yan burned the piece of paper to ashes, "Hmph, sure enough, it's them, Xuanyuan, let's go below" Mu Yan pulled out a sneer, and then attached it to Xuanyuan Ya's ear and said
When Mu Yan finished speaking, Xuanyuan Ya nodded excitedly and said, "Okay, just do it." Then the two of them returned to the Chonghua Hall along the way they came.
After Mu Yan and Xuanyuan Ya left, four black shadows flew out of the darkness, and if you look closely, they are actually four corpses!!! ! The two are Murong Yuchen and Mu Ziying.
Murong Yuchen looked at Mu Ziying worriedly, and said, "Xiao Youyou, you" Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Mu Ziying: "Chen, I'm fine, really." You dispose of the corpse first, let's go back, I guess the banquet is about to start at this time. Murong Yuchen looked at Mu Ziying carefully a few more times, and found that she was really fine, so he breathed a sigh of relief, then flipped his hand, took out a small porcelain bottle, and gently sprinkled it on the top of the four corpses, just a moment later, the four corpses disappeared without a trace, if it weren't for the faint smell of blood in the air, it is estimated that no one would believe it, just now there were four hideous and terrifying corpses lying here. After cleaning the corpse, Murong Yuchen and Mu Ziying walked in the direction of Chonghua Palace.
On the way back to Chonghua Palace, Murong Yuchen still didn't worry about Mu Ziying, after all, he saw that person, well, although they are not the same person, they can be said to look exactly the same, after all, in their previous life, they glanced at Mu Ziying several times, and in the end, Mu Ziying couldn't stand it anymore, and said to Murong Yuchen that he was really fine, and Murong Yuchen put his heart back in his stomach.
In fact, Mu Ziying didn't expect to meet someone on this continent who looked the same as him, not only did he look exactly the same, but even the name was exactly the same, all of them were called Xuan-Yuan-Ya. However, she hated that Xuanyuan Ya had died in her hands, even if they looked like that, it was not the Xuanyuan Ya she hated, and besides, she had already let go, the love and hatred of the 'previous life', why should she put it in the 'present life'?
Mu Ziying smiled faintly, thinking about what she had just heard from her brother, she really didn't expect that it was not an accident that her mother was taken away by her mother clan back then, but that the Jun family deliberately lured her mother's mother clan over, the purpose was to let the Mu family have no time to take care of the qualifying competition of the four major families in a month after a month, so as to get the throne of the first family.
It's just that the Jun family didn't expect that Mu Ye, the second young man of the Mu family who had been traveling outside for many years, actually came back five days before the qualifying competition of the four major families, and his strength actually reached the middle stage of the Spirit Emperor, and he also fell in love with Murong Qing, the eldest lady of the Murong family, for many years, which directly destroyed the Jun family's plan, and Mu Feng also directly passed the position of the head of the family to his younger brother of a fellow mother on that day, and then went into retreat. Soon after the end of the qualifying match, Mu Feng directly broke through the barrier in the late stage of the Spirit Venerable and flew up directly. And Jun Ke'er also married Xuanyuan Zheng, who had just ascended the throne at that time, but the revenge against the Mu family never stopped. Of course, it's all in the shadows.
Mu Ziying squinted, she was going to give the Jun family and Jun Ke'er a good time, but now, she suddenly felt that it was too cheap for them to do so, she wanted them to taste the taste of falling down hard the moment they landed on the clouds!! but this plan needs someone to help.
Thinking of this, Mu Ziying turned her head to Murong Yuchen and said, "Chen, I need your help. ”
Murong Yuchen nodded, smiled and said to Mu Ziying, "Okay, I don't know how Xiao Youyou needs help?" Mu Ziying attached himself to Murong Yuchen's ear and said. After finishing speaking, Murong Yuchen said excitedly, "Okay, this matter will definitely be done!"
Mu Ziying and Murong Yuchen had just returned to the Chonghua Hall on the front foot, and the emperor and queen came on the back foot, shouting with the voice of the eunuch: "The emperor has arrived! The queen has arrived!" The emperor and queen slowly stepped on the high seat above, and then I was a plopping sound kneeling down the mountain and shouting long live, but the heads of the four major families and their sons and daughters did not need to kneel, they just needed to bend down to show respect.
Immediately, Emperor Xuanyuan's majestic voice sounded: "All Aiqing, please get up." ”
"Thank you, Lord Long!!"
"Everyone also knows that the Four Nations Contest is about to start in five months, and this time the Four Nations Contest will be held in Mocang!! And the purpose of this palace banquet held by the Empress and the Empress is to select five talented women to represent us in the ancient competition to participate in the talent competition in the Four Kingdoms Competition, and those who win the Four Nations Competition will receive ten thousand taels of gold, a cloud crane egg, a silver heart grass and a green fruit. "Hearing Qingguo, everyone's eyes lit up at once! You must know that the aura contained in Qingguo can make a master in the middle stage of the spirit general instantly enter the early stage of the spirit king, that is to say, getting the green fruit is equivalent to getting a master at the level of the spirit king!!!! After the excitement, some people who were not strong enough and not strong enough calmed down, although Qingguo is a good thing, but they also have to have a life to take it, only a small number of people at the palace banquet still showed a look of inevitable, including the six talented women of the imperial city, these six people are Jun Qingya of the Jun family, Murong Rou of the Murong family, Yun Mei of the Yun family, Xuanyuan Shan, the fifth princess Xuanyuan Shan, Xuanyuan Rongjie, the lord of Rongjie County, and Bai Qianqian, the daughter of Prime Minister Bai.
Mu Ziying's eyes also lit up, not because she heard Qingguo, but because she heard the name Silver Heart Grass, you must know that Silver Heart Grass is the most important medicinal material for refining and washing the soul, but in the first life, she searched the entire fairy world and didn't find it, she didn't expect it to be here, she was just going to take revenge on Jun Ke'er, so now she must win this time!!
Then Xuanyuan Zheng said some more words, and then announced the start of the selection, as one woman after another came to the stage to show their talents, time was also passing little by little, when the tenth Li Shangshu's daughter Li Wan finished performing, Mu Ziying felt a vicious gaze at herself, and squinted her eyes slightly, is this about to start?
Jun Ke'er looked at Mu Ziying's unaware of her gaze, and pulled the corners of her mouth disdainfully, if she was really a child, she didn't even notice her own obvious sight, but even if she was a child, she couldn't let it go when she could suppress it!!! Jun Ke'er thought of this, and a vicious look flashed in her eyes, but it quickly disappeared, as if it was just an illusion.
When Jun Keer restrained her emotions, another woman finished performing, and before the thirteenth performer took the stage, Jun Keer spoke: "This palace still remembers that Yi Lan, the first talented woman in the imperial city, was gorgeous, and later married Mu Feng, the young man of the Mu family, who was known as a genius at the time. Speaking of this, Jun Keer paused, as if recalling the situation back then.
