03 Reunion
When he arrived at the Paradise Pavilion, all the ministers and officials who were invited to the banquet were already waiting here, Jielan glanced at these people, and did not find empty Jing, but there was a person who was quite eye-catching, that person was also dressed in a black official uniform, with a solemn expression, although he was more than forty, but he still looked heroic, the belt he was wearing was made of red silk, according to the official rank, the official's belt would have specifications, from one to seven grades, respectively, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple to distinguish the ranks, and must not be fulfilled, Otherwise, it is a grave sin. The supreme ruler of the city hall uses bright yellow, and this color is only used by the city lord alone, and if others wear this color, it is a heinous crime to destroy the whole clan. The wife of the lord of the castle is made of white jade, symbolizing holiness and nobility.
And the minister in front of him is wearing a red silk belt, so he is Lord Chengfu of Chiyan City. And this person is also the same Lord Yu Yao who let the strange beast attack Qi Xue in the southern city. In addition to noticing this Josuke, Jielan's eyes were involuntarily attracted by the guards behind him, the man was wearing a sword in his left hand and hanging in the air with his right tube, was his right arm broken?
Broken right arm? This made Jielan involuntarily think of the criminal, the innkeeper who died because of himself under Kong Jing, but unfortunately his revenge has not been avenged until now, how can I be worthy of him?
Jielan's face became sad, immersed in her own thoughts.
And the gangster behind Yu Yao, when he saw Jielan appear here so suddenly, he trembled with surprise, and he wanted to go out and greet Jielan, "How are you doing lately?" Why come to this temple and get out of here! This is not the place for you! But these words can only be buried in his heart, he can't say it, let alone show that he knows Jielan, which will only attract the attention of others.
And Ning Lu, who was staying aside, seemed to notice the strange changes of the criminal, she followed the criminal's gaze, and when she saw Jielan disguised as a man, her heart was disappointed for a while, and there was a trace of sadness between her eyebrows.
When Yu Yao saw that Qing Zhan had arrived, he hurriedly bowed his hand, and all the officials behind him, including the criminals, also bowed their heads and bowed their heads.
"It's really an honor for Qingzhan Shaojun to come to my city, I don't know if everything can be satisfied here?"
"Don't worry about Lord Yuyao, I'm happy to make this trip." When he said this, he looked at Jielan on the side, and Jielan hurriedly turned her head sideways and ignored him.
But in her heart, she was even more confused, what was the identity of the person in front of her, and even the first assistant of Chiyan City respected him so much. Jielan couldn't guess, since this was the case, she had to hope that this person could keep his promise and rescue Chengfeng, but this seemed to be just her own delusion!
But the gangster thought, this person in front of him is actually the young monarch, the young monarch of the royal city, so how could Jielan be with the young monarch of the royal city, is she already ......
"Please invite Shaojun to the banquet!" With Yu Yao's respectful invitation, a magnificent and festive music sounded, Qing Zhan's left eyebrow was raised slightly, obviously disliked the background of this boring music, but he didn't say anything, and was led by Lord Yu Yao to the Paradise Pavilion.
Entering the Pavilion of Bliss, they sat down according to their status levels, Qing Zhan naturally occupied the first seat on the right, Jielan stood behind him, and Chengfu was in the position opposite him on the left, when everyone was seated, Jielan noticed that the position on the side of Lord Yuyao was vacant, at this time, he saw the curtain at the position of the city lord flickering, and a man led by the palace man with a somewhat thin belt made of Ming gold silk came in, he wore a golden crown with a pearl inlaid on the crown, it seemed that he was fifty years old, and his face was half without joy, On the contrary, it is a bit perverse. And the person behind him was wearing protective armor, holding a cloud-breaking sword, wearing a red cloak, and short hair, who was it not Kong Jing?
Jielan's heart trembled slightly, and she hurriedly lowered her head to the side, afraid that he would notice her.
Qing Zhan glanced at the panicked Jielan behind him, and knew what she was afraid of, he glanced at Na Kongjing and smiled interestingly, his eyes full of contempt and mockery.
Yu Yao, who was sitting next to him, happened to notice Qing Zhan's expression, his thick eyebrows were deep, and he paid attention to his heart.
All the officials stood up and bowed to the city lord.
And the criminals also bowed their heads with the officials, when he looked up at the city lord sitting on the jade throne, he didn't know whether he was excited or nervous, cold sweat soaked in his palms, he looked at the figure that was already unfamiliar, with indescribable hatred and resentment, but why, why did he hate him so much, but at this moment he still hoped that the person could notice himself and notice that he was standing in front of him.
But the man's eyes never looked at him, and the criminals couldn't help but sneer in their hearts countless times, whether it was a mockery of himself or a tearing of his heart.
............
When the city lord sat down, Nakong Jing returned to his position on the side of Lord Yu Yao.
"Please take a seat!" The city lord's eyes were still heavy and suffocating.
All the officials sat down. Receiving the envoy was supposed to be a celebratory event for the whole city, but in this Pavilion of Bliss, he only felt dull and frightened. Qing Zhan felt this strange atmosphere, and seemed to be indifferent, he poured a glass of wine and held it alone, the corners of his mouth still had a leisurely and proud smile that had not been opened for a long time.
When the officials saw Qing Zhan with a calm expression, they were all shocked and frightened, and they hurriedly lowered their heads, not daring to look at him again.
Jielan looked at the expressions of these officials, and felt very strange, she didn't know whether these people were afraid of the battle in front of them, or afraid of the high city lord. Jielan raised her head and looked directly at the city lord, although she felt that her identity was very different from his, but she didn't feel any fear in the face of such a noble person, but felt that such a high position in him was a little disgusting.
