Chapter 496: The Upcoming Emperor's Birthday Banquet

Phoenix Tower, the most famous landmark building in Fengcheng.

On weekdays, this is the most prosperous area of Fengcheng, and many tourists come here, and the crowds are surging and the river is endless.

But today, the Phoenix Building and a nearby area are under martial law, and they are not allowed to approach.

"Really, isn't it just a dead man's head?" A foreign tourist complained, "As for martial law for so long?" It was a little bit of a stretch for me to make time to travel. ”

"That's right." Another tourist complained, "I went to Lingdu last year, but I met a nobleman who died, and the whole city mourned in silence." As a result, when I came to Fengcheng this year, I encountered this kind of thing again......"

"Brother, you're too good at picking time."

"yes, yes......"

……

Black Crow and Qiu Wen mingled in the crowd of tourists, silently watching a group of pickets collect evidence in the Phoenix Mansion, and carefully watched the surroundings.

A faint, imperceptible green light spread from Qiu Wen's feet into the depths of the earth, scattered into thousands of wisps, and merged into the intertwined plant root system underground.

The surrounding greenery has become Qiu Wen's eyes and ears......

After doing all this, Qiu Wen looked at the black crow and asked the voice curiously, "Mr. black crow, there is a question that I have been curious about for a long time, you should still be wanted now, right?" Why do you dare to appear in public so openly and openly? ”

The crow replied, "Because what everyone else sees except you is not what I really am." ”

"Huh?" Qiu Wen looked at him puzzled.

The black crow smiled and didn't explain, but in the depths of his consciousness, a voice sounded, "You've been holding my face against me for so long, remember that I'm going to charge for it." ”

"Understood." The crow replied with consciousness.

……

While the two were talking, a picket officer retraced time with an extraordinary object, and publicly recreated how Yi An's head appeared in the Phoenix Mansion.

But the scene seen in time retrospectively is the same as what you see in the surveillance, Yi'an's head seems to appear out of thin air, without warning.

However, the pickets were not without gains, as another picketer spotted a faint shadow fluctuation in the form of a microscope-like transcendent object......

"Lady White Night won't be discovered, will she?" The crow asked, a little worried.

"No, it won't." Qiu Wen is very confident.

"No, it won't." St. Filina, who was in her soul, also spoke.

"Huh?" The crow asked with some curiosity, "So confident?" ”

"Of course." Qiu Wen raised her head and said with some pride, "These pickets, being able to perceive the shadows caused by the Night Lady's control of the power of the night is already their limit. They couldn't parse the Night Lady in the shadows at all, and under the shadows, the Night Lady was still invisible at the time, so it was even less likely for them to discover the Night Lady's true identity. ”

Santa Felina said, "The reason why your spirit friend was born with two forms is because there is an extremely high-level and extremely ancient power in her soul origin, and these pickets can't penetrate her night power just by going back in time. ”

"Is this so......" The crow nodded, in response to Qiu Wen, and then asked in consciousness, "Santa Phirina, you mean that there is a very powerful force in the soul of the White Night Lady?" ”

"Hmm." Santa Filina's tone was a little strange, "It's a very contradictory but powerful force, so strong that it borders on some kind of authority......"

Authority...... The crow's pupils shook, and he knew very well what it meant to be close to some kind of authority.

……

Things developed just as Qiu Wen and Santa Felina expected, and the Fengcheng pickets tried their best, but they couldn't parse out what was hidden in the shadows.

"It seems that this is a person who is good at shadow-type supernatural abilities." The picket, who has the ability to go back in time, judged.

"Report it."

"Hmm."

The pickets left, but the Phoenix Building was still not unsealed, causing a wave of dissatisfaction among the tourists.

"Huh?" Qiu Wenxiu twisted her eyebrows, and her countless ears and eyes did not find anyone who behaved abnormally.

The crows didn't find it either.

"Didn't the people behind Yi'an send someone to investigate?" Qiu Wen was a little stunned.

"Impossible!" The crow shook his head, "That doesn't make sense. ”

"But ......"

Suddenly, Santa Felina spoke again, "Follow the picket on the left with a mole on his face." ”

When the crow heard this, his spirits perked. He looked at the picketor that Santa Felina had mentioned, and saw that the other party looked as usual, and had not behaved in any particular way in the previous investigation, so he asked, "What did you find?" ”

"If you have to find something unusual," said Santa Philina, "this person's mental fluctuations are more intense than any other picketer. ”

Intense mental swings...... The crow nodded slightly, "I see." ”

He called Qiu Wen and followed quietly......

Yang Zheng and Tucharan came to Gu Quan's office together to report the progress of the incident to the consul general of the National Assembly.

Gu Quan silently listened to the two of them while commenting on the documents in front of him, and then raised his head and looked at the two.

The two of them immediately showed a posture of listening, waiting for the instructions of the Speaker General of the Congress, but Gu Quan's words surprised them, "Why do you want to report this matter to me?" ”

"Huh?" Yang Zheng was slightly stunned, quickly reacted, and said, "You are the consul general of the Congress, of course, you have to ...... you for all matters."

Gu Quan waved his hand, interrupting Yang Zheng's compliment, and said, "Your Majesty is very concerned about this matter, you can go directly to the palace and report to Your Majesty, I am still busy preparing for next month's birthday banquet." ”

Next month's birthday party...... When Yang Zheng and Tucharan heard this, they suddenly remembered that the sixth day of next month would be the thirtieth birthday of His Majesty the Emperor Yi Zhen.

His Majesty the Emperor turned 30 years old, which was a major event of national concern. At that time, the commanders of the four borders of the Xinhua Dynasty, officials from all over the country, aristocrats of all sizes, and representatives from all walks of life will gather in Fengcheng to congratulate Yi Zhen on his birthday.

The other four countries, the Ancestral Peak, the Celestial Star Forest, and the Lailong Mountain also sent envoys to the banquet.

The banquet was of high standard and wide influence, and even enough to have an impact on the national image of the Xinhua Dynasty.

Therefore, it is no surprise that this heavy responsibility fell on Gu Quan, the leader of the National Assembly.

For Gu Quan, the most important thing at the moment is this banquet, and the rest of the things can be put on hold for the time being.

"Your Excellency the Commander-in-Chief has worked hard, and the subordinates understand...... Yang Zheng bowed, "The subordinates will enter the palace with Chief Tucharan and report to Your Majesty." ”

"Well, go ahead." Gu Quan nodded and said lightly.

The two took two steps back, and then turned around, but just as they were about to walk out of the office, Gu Quan suddenly said, "By the way, don't bother the two masters, since you are going to enter the palace, help me make an appointment with Xiong Jiuxiao to worship, invite him to my home, and I will discuss with him about the security matters on the day of the banquet." ”

"Yes, the subordinate must bring the words."

"Our grade is still too low...... After leaving the Imperial Tomb for some distance, Lady Bai Ye lifted her invisibility and looked in the direction of the Imperial Tomb with regret, "If we were all middle-grade transcendent creatures, we should be able to blast that boulder directly." ”

"yes." Filna also said, "If we are all middle-grade transcendent creatures, we don't have to worry that the people inside the mountain will find us, and we can just go in recklessly...... However, if you want to be promoted to the third grade in a short period of time, it is obviously impossible, if only we could have a helper. ”

Helper...... Zhang Jichuan suddenly paused, his eyes lit up slightly, "Maybe I can find a helper." ”

"Huh? It's true? Lady Bai Ye said incredulously, "Mr. Siliang, didn't you just come to Fengcheng?" Have your helper here too? ”

"That's a must." Zhang Jichuan said, "Buddies and friends are all over the world...... You wait for me, I'll make a call. ”

After that, Zhang Jichuan really dialed a phone call.

A few minutes later, in the surprised eyes of Lady Bai Ye and Filna, a luxurious car stopped in front of Zhang Jichuan, and a young man wearing a housekeeper's costume walked in the car, nodded slightly at Zhang Jichuan and said, "Teacher Zhang Jichuan, I've kept you waiting, please get in the car, His Excellency the Duke is already waiting for you." ”

"Thank you." Zhang Jichuan hurriedly returned the salute, and then pointed to Lady Bai Ye and Filna and said to the man, "These two are my friends, can I take them to see His Excellency the Duke?" ”

"Of course, your friend is the Duke and his Excellency's guest, please get in the car with us." The man's tone was respectful.

Ms. Bai Ye and Filna got into the car in a daze, but they didn't expect that Zhang Jichuan knew the phone number, and actually called someone, and listened to the conversation between the two sides, as if it was someone from a certain duke?

Not long after, the car drove into a manor located in the 'Divine Bird Lane'.

Shenniao Lane is in Fengcheng, which is about the same as the positioning of Platinum Lane in Yujing, and the people living in it are either rich or expensive.

An old man greeted the door of the living room, and the moment she saw the old man, Ms. Bai Ye couldn't help but be shocked, and blurted out "Baizhu? Big Investor Atractylodes? ”

"I can't imagine that I have a cheap name, but I actually let the friends of the Spirit Clan know about it, it's really an honor to be old." The old man glanced at Lady Bai Ye and said with a smile.

This person is none other than Baizhu, Zhang Jichuan's investor!

"So......" Ms. Bai Ye's gaze went back and forth between Baizhu and Zhang Jichuan, and she immediately understood something, and said with admiration, "Mr. Siliang, I really have your ......"

"It's just that Your Excellency Baizhu looks up to me." Zhang Jichuan said modestly, he saw Baizhu coming forward, immediately got out of the car, bowed to the old man and said, "Your Excellency Baizhu, I'm sorry for your trouble." ”

"No trouble." Bai Shu smiled brightly, "I should thank you, Teacher Zhang Jichuan, thank you for giving me the opportunity to invest more, as long as you don't forget what I should gain."

"Let's go, don't stay outside, go in and have a cup of tea."
