Chapter 54: Mutual Rejection and Repayment (3)

The banquet has been set up on both sides of the hall, and the delicacies are placed in front of the table by the servants one by one, and a few pots of hot wine are taken out, and the mud seal is opened, and each is poured full, and the fragrance is overflowing, and the smell is overflowing, and the nose is coming. Then he took the ivory basket and laid it on the bowl in turn; There was only one old minion, holding a pair of silver chopsticks, who walked to the chief and presented it to Lu Fangxuan's hand.

"It's hard work for you to have this big feast." Lu Fangxuan caught the chopsticks, nodded at him, and ordered him to go down.

He was about to pick up the wine glass and say something to everyone, when there was a sudden burst of laughter outside the door, and he saw Zheng Shiyan and others holding Qi Shi's arm and going up to the hall step by step.

Qi Zhi's face was full of red light, and he immediately said: "Lord Lu! The evidence has all been burned clean, and the subordinates are now light! If he doesn't succeed, we'll be much happier! ”

"This is all the credit of the leader, if you don't persuade the thieves and confuse Jiang Tian, then everyone here today will be imprisoned. The feast is for you, so sit down. Lu Fangxuan smiled in a coping manner, while motioning for him to take a seat.

Qi Shi was a little arrogant, and as soon as he lifted his robe, he sat on Lu Fangxuan's left hand side.

"Come," Lu Fangxuan stood up with his lamp in his hand and looked around at the crowd, "This temporary victory is also worth a drink!" ”

After that, he raised his neck with everyone and drank it all in an instant.

"Today's feast, I'm afraid it's not enough to show that I will win," Qi Shi put down his wine glass with a snap, "Wangyue Gongji soldiers will be rewarded in turn, so that the whole army can share the blessings, and it will be good!" All the generals understood what Qi Zhi meant, and before Lu Fangxuan could speak, several people were already looking forward to it and were ready to applaud.

However, Lu Fangxuan frowned, and said with a faint smile: "Ah, the commander can think about the soldiers, and the officer is very moved. But the Liu Party will definitely launch a new offensive, and the outcome is not yet known. It would be too imprudent to discuss this matter. ”

The lively scene just now was like a dream, and suddenly they didn't dare to move, and one by one their faces were like earth, holding their breath, and the oppressive gray-white pressed down from the top of their heads like a dark cloud, enveloping the entire hall. Qi Shi looked at Zheng Shiyan, and then glanced at everyoneβ€”he still maintained that stiff smile.

"What Lord Lu said is also very right. Commander Qi is really bold, we have to let him eat and support this celebration banquet to be worthy of his credit! Eat all, eat ......" Zheng Shi hurriedly came to play the round.

"Yes," Lu Fangxuan forced his awkward expression into a laugh, "Commander Qi, did you hear what General Liu said?" ”

"The subordinates are on order." Qi Shi picked up the chopsticks and reluctantly fed himself a few mouthfuls of food, but he had no appetite at all and almost vomited.

So everyone ate for a while, and Qi Zhi didn't move his chopsticks much, just drinking cold wine, and the strength of the wine came up unconsciously.

Zheng Shiyan was afraid that something would happen to him, so he glanced at him from time to time, and saw Qi Shi swaying with one hand, already holding the sword at his waist.

His complexion changed instantly, and when he was not paying attention, he hurriedly bumped into him with his arm.

Qi Shi pushed his arms away, staggered to attend, and shouted, "Everyone, everyone! Why isn't there a singing and dancing today? This can't be! ”

Zheng Shiyan secretly screamed bitterly, and had to stare dryly.

"Qi Ling, you've drunk too much." An officer hurriedly came to persuade.

"No, no," he exhaled and shook his head excitedly, "I can't still walk, I can still jump?" And for you to dance the sword for fun, don't say more! ”

With that, he took two steps back, drew his sword, and danced in the middle of the hall; The crowd had no choice but to applaud again and again to liven up the atmosphere.

There was a general in the crowd, who had gone out to see Shi Xiushen with Qi Advisor, looked at the appearance of the sword, and his heart sank: 'This sword has been given to Shi Xiushen in the past, and he has not been asked to return it, why is it in his hands again?' Mo Fei Liu Dang ......'

When he saw that Qi Shi was already drunk, he boldly picked up the wine cup and said that he wanted to toast Lu Gong, so he walked up to him and whispered, Lu Fangxuan understood.

"Commander Qi, your sword is really good," Lu Fangxuan looked very pleasant, squinted his eyes and smiled, "Can you give it to this official?" ”

"Brother Lu, your words are out," Qi Shi wiped the sweat from his hair, walked straight to Lu Fangxuan, and knelt down to offer the sword: "Foolish brother is for you!" ”

Lu Fangxuan did not hesitate, took the sword in his hand, and without looking at it, he threw it to his subordinates for safekeeping; All the generals of the Yue Mansion could see it clearly, but Qi Zhi stared his eyes like copper bells, but he was still unconscious.

"This sword is in your hands, tell me the truth."

The banquet had been withdrawn, it was dark, and the general knelt in the light of the candle to accept Lu Fangxuan's questioning.

He kowtowed: "My lord, this sword was given to the imperial court in the past, and I said about it at that time, but he felt that this thing was not important, and he gave it to others in exchange for personal favors, so he ...... That's it. But today he suddenly took out the sword, silently, and did not know when...... Oh, maybe you know. ”

Lu Fangxuan pouted silently: "It's a pity that I don't know his whereabouts." ”

"Just imagine, Shi Xiushen, as a person in the court, although he does not have the name of the party, he always has to do things according to the Liu party, and he will definitely keep all the relevant evidence intact, how can he give it to others? Commander Qi is probably in contact with them. The general looked directly at the sword and speculated.

Lu Fangxuan listened, and there seemed to be murderous aura in his eyes. He slowly turned his head, "It takes a lot of courage to expose your boss, let alone someone like Qi Zhi. You've worked hard, go back and rest for the night. ”

The general asked fearfully, "Will the commander of Qi be disposed of in the end?" ”

"Disposition." Lu Fangxuan pulled out his sword and said coldly, "But now is not the time, he still has a little value, and he must use it all." ”

"General, squire, the prefect of Nanjing is here." Si Ban Lu Yingshan made a gesture of invitation, and asked Ye Yongjia and Liu Zhennian to meet.

"It seems that your inspection department is not very competitive," Yan Liang said a little sarcastically, "so that Qi Zhi has broken through the net and swam back to the sea." ”

Ye Yongjia shot back: "No. Although Qi Zhi is free from my little net, there is still an iron net in the sea. ”

"The iron net is the holy decree, right?"

"Yes."

Yan Liang was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but laugh contemptuously: "Lord Ye, you didn't say that at the beginning. If it is delayed again and again, the capital will become a mess! We think about the big picture first and foremost. ”

"Yan Shilang, this is the last fight!" Ye Yongjia's heart is as hard as iron now, "You don't have to persuade me. I ask General Liu to order His Majesty to issue a holy decree! ”

"The temple plan, how can you wait for Hu to come!" Yan Liang said urgently.

Liu Zhennian admired his momentum very much, and immediately patted the case: "Just do what you say!" ”
