On the day Zhong Lifei and his apprentices arrived in Taiwu City, it was just in time for the king's sixtieth birthday.

The founding monarch of Fengyi is the descendant of the emperor, and he assisted the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty, so he was named a prince, and he has been on the throne for sixty-nine generations, which can be said to be a long time for the country.

At this moment, the city is full of lights and joy.

In the palace, hundreds of civil and military officials and many big figures in the immortal cultivation world in the country sat in an orderly manner, and they all raised their glasses to congratulate the king on Shoubi Nanshan, as blessed as the East China Sea.

The king's surname is Ji Mingling, his temples are white, his smile is full, he looks amiable, but his eyes are as sharp as an eagle.

The guest seats below are placed on both sides, and the empty position on the upper left is specially reserved for a guest of honor, the Taiping Prince of the Republic of China.

It is said that he came to congratulate the neighboring king Ji Ling on his 60th birthday today, which is a special mission with the royal brother.

On the long seat on the right, the corresponding position sits Ji Ling's only son, Ji Guangqing.

The two people sitting next to each other turned out to be Zhong Lifei's master and apprentice.

Many officials saw them for the first time, and their eyes unconsciously glanced over as they drank, secretly looking at the two strangers.

According to the rules of the imperial court, the person who is qualified to sit next to the prince is either the third prince or the sixth secretary, at least he should be a respected person in the country.

But now it is Zhong Lifei's master and apprentice who accompany him, which makes many officials have great doubts in their hearts.

They couldn't understand why the two guests, who looked very ordinary, were qualified to sit next to the prince?

Could it be that their identity is more noble than the three princes and six kings, and the famous people in the immortal cultivation world?

In fact, it's no wonder that these officials are confused, after all, they are not immortal cultivators, even if they have heard of Zhong Lifei's deeds before, they don't know each other.

It was because of surprise that the official sitting opposite Zhong Lifei's master and apprentice discussed in private.

"Who are those two, they are neither like the children of official eunuchs, nor are they immortal cultivators, why can they sit next to the prince?"

"These two people are not small, they are Zhong Lifei and Chu Fan, who have been in the limelight in the rivers and lakes recently."

"Hey, the name is so familiar! This official remembered that they were wanted criminals by the imperial court! ”

"That's right! Zhonglang general Qi Hongzheng was ordered to guard the border pass and block the Qingqiu treasure hunting team led by Zhong Lifei. ”

Someone shook his head and smiled: "Lord Wang, don't laugh, prisoners can attend His Highness's birthday banquet?" I'm afraid that as soon as I enter Taiwu City, I will be arrested and brought to justice. ”

"Do you know, His Royal Highness and the Prince have seen this pair of masters and apprentices in the Imperial Garden today......"

Before he finished speaking, a young official shouted urgently: "What a big dog, dare to assassinate His Highness!" Do all the imperial guards eat dry rice? Why not take them down! ”

"What pig brains, if they had done something rebellious, could they sit here and drink leisurely now?"

The officials were silent, their eyes fixed on the colleague surnamed Wang, and listened to him tell the inside information.

The official surnamed Wang shook his head and said: "At that time, His Royal Highness was playing chess with the prince, and these two people were so good that when they appeared on the edge of the chessboard, none of the guards along the way noticed it!" ”

"Huh?"

The faces of many officials immediately changed, and their hearts were full of horror.

If Zhong Lifei was really an assassin, then their king would not be able to live his sixtieth birthday.

The official surnamed Wang said: "There is also a shocking story, which is more exciting than their master and apprentice breaking into the imperial garden!" ”

"What an insider, say it quickly!" Someone urged.

"The real assassin is Qi Hong, the lieutenant general who has been with our colleague for many years!"

"How is that possible? General Qi has been loyal and good for generations, and has made many military exploits, what reason does he have to assassinate His Highness? ”

"Qi Hong, who is loyal to the king, has already been killed by a monster, and this demon is attached to him and plots against him!"

When everyone heard this, their eyes immediately widened, and their faces were full of astonishment!

The official surnamed Wang explained: "Fortunately, Zhongli Fei explained the truth to His Highness, otherwise, our Fengyi Kingdom would be finished!" ”

Someone asked in surprise, "What about Qi Hong...... No, where is that youkai now? ”

"It's been eliminated by Zhong Lifei."

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and their faces were much calmer.

Another official asked in disbelief: "How did Lord Wang hear about this news?" ”

The official surnamed Wang replied: "My third brother is a sword-armed guard in the prince's mansion, and today the imperial garden is with the prince, and when Zhongli flew to report to His Highness, he heard it clearly beside him!" ”

The officials were moved and no longer had any doubts.

"No wonder Zhong Lifei's master and apprentice can become guests, they are my great benefactors of Fengyi Country!"

"In this way, their wanted warrants have been cancelled."

"I've been with youkai for so many years, and I'm a little scared to think about it!"

The crowd exclaimed one after another, and a timid official, his wine glass almost fell to the ground.

Chu Fan, who was drinking, saw the panicked appearance of the official opposite, and immediately laughed secretly.

Before he could come back to his senses, these officials who knew the inside story came one after another to toast him and Master.

"Shake the Taiping King of the Republic of China Dugu Sheng to drive to congratulate the king on his birthday."

At this moment, there was a loud announcement from the officials on duty outside.

Many of the toasting officials quickly retreated to their seats and looked out of the door.

King Ji Ling didn't react much, but just waved his hand at Ji Guangqing at the bottom of the stairs.

Seeing his father's hint, Ji Guangqing put down his wine glass and got up to greet him.

In the blink of an eye, Dugu Sheng strode in with his head held high.

He was followed by a dozen followers, most of whom were old men.

Everyone's hearts suddenly sank.

Between Dugusheng walking, the breath that inadvertently emanated was extremely depressing, and I was horrified.

Moreover, the dozen or so followers who followed behind were all masters of the immortal cultivation realm.

Especially those old men, although they deliberately restrained their breath, they still made people feel terrible.

It was as if this group of people had not come to congratulate, but had come to sabotage the enemy.

Seeing Dugu Sheng enter the hall, Ji Guangqing hurriedly stepped forward to salute and said with a smile: "Brother Dugu came from afar, and the younger brother is very honored." ”

When Dugu Sheng heard this, his face suddenly became gloomy.

He is the younger brother of the king of the Republic of China, and Ji Guangqing is the son of the king of Fengyi.

Now, the other party is actually commensurate with his peers, isn't this humiliating himself?

Dugu Sheng's temper was about to attack, but suddenly his eyes widened and he was stunned on the spot.

He actually saw Zhong Lifei's master and apprentice in the middle of the banquet!

Bastards, aren't they wanted?

For a moment, Dugu Sheng thought he was hallucinating.

He quickly blinked and stared.

That's right, sure enough, these two guys were still sitting on the table as VIPs!

At this moment, Zhong Lifei's face did not change at all, and he drank silently, as if he was crazy and lonely.

Chu Fan was different, this kid stared at Dugu Wang Ye with a wicked smile, his eyes full of disdain.
