Chapter 55. Give up resistance

Qin Wu trembled with excitement, "We were led by the nose!" He said, "That's a great trick!" ”

It turned out that just when Qi Rusong thought that Lingnan City would set off a bloody storm, what he didn't expect was that the couple of the prince and his wife in the south did not make any resistance.

The two of them even took the initiative to send their children to the king of the south, and asked Qi Tai to "strictly discipline" him, hoping that he would become a talent.

The military power of Lingnan City was also handed over at the first time, which made the entire Lingnan City think that Qi Rubai was really a virtuous and competent son.

Qi Tai immediately laughed when he heard this, and at the same time he was sweating for Qi Rusong. The future of Qi Rusong, who is lacking in politics and lacking in politics, is full of thorns.

This is definitely not his brother's real purpose, the other party must be planning something. But there is nothing he can do about him, and if he deals with him at this time, he will inevitably be opposed by the entire Lingnan City.

Regarding the witchcraft and the "poisoning", the doctor took all the blame and admitted that he had done it alone.

The reason is that his son was "wronged" as a crossing demon, and as revenge, he harmed Qi Tai.

This is not the truth, Qi Rusong thought to himself. But no matter how tortured and tortured, the other party did not let go.

On the second night of the interrogation, the doctor died in prison for no apparent reason. All leads were interrupted as a result.

The truth is buried, and those behind it remain at large.

"It's okay to exile him and let him join the Demon Hunting Sect, in short, don't give him another chance!" Qin Wudao.

"What is his sin?" Qi Tai said, "During this period of my [serious illness], Lingnan City has been well governed!" After that, he also handed over all power as soon as possible. ”

"He didn't take this demon disaster seriously, and almost hurt the little prince."

"He sent Feng Gaowei! The southern realm has been calm for too long, this time the demon may be beyond too many people's expectations, and he doesn't have too many [faults] in this matter!" Qi Tai seemed to have guessed such a situation. "It's also good to avoid a bloody fight."

Maybe that's politics! Qi Rusong smiled, he still lacked too much in this regard!

"Rusong, tell me, what should I do next?" Qi Tai asked him.

"Whatever you do, send more men to secretly observe their movements!"

"I'll arrange this, but we made such a big move before, I'm afraid that some people will gossip!" Qin Wudao.

"Divert your attention," Qi Rusong said, "It just so happens that the prince of the Eastern Realm is in my Lingnan City!" A grand feast can leave all issues forgotten. ”

Qi Tai showed a smile, "Just do what you want!" ”

So Lingnan City set up a grand banquet to entertain He Xiao, who came from the east to save his son and save the entire southern demon hunting gate.

On the third night of Qi Rusong's return to Lingnan City. The welcome dinner held by Xiao to clean up the dust and celebrate the recovery of the king of the southern realm has been going on for two full hours.

The hall of the Lingnan City Palace is steaming, overflowing with the aroma of barbecued meat, broth, stewed river fish, roast duck, and so on. In the hall, several singers were plucking the strings and singing ballads.

Qi Tai, He Xiao, Qi Rubai, and Qi Rusong sat in the center of the hall, they talked and laughed, and talked very happily.

Wang Minjun was still late, and she wore a crown full of gems against her long black hair, shining, and the jade inlaid on it matched her brilliant black eyes flawlessly.

Qi Rubai helped her step onto the high platform and led her to the seat to sit down, she didn't look at Qi Tai and herself from beginning to end. Moreover, even Qi Rusong, who doesn't understand "politics", can still see that the smile of the princess is only superficial.

Everyone has a secret ghost, but on the surface they are so harmonious... I still need to learn too much, too much...

"Rusong, let's talk about this [Demon Calamity Journey]!" The prince of the southern realm spoke.

Qi Rusong tasted the beef tendon that had been cold in front of him. "Too many people want to kill me, the demon clan who broke the seal, the traverser, the demon clan hiding in the weird forest, the human race who lost their minds, and some killers sent by the villains to assassinate me.

But in the end, I slaughtered them all. ”

Feng Gaowei assassinated himself, Qi Tai and He Xiao both persuaded him not to say it in the open. Qi Rubai is meticulous and will definitely leave all responsibilities behind.

"Rusong, Rusong, you are always like this. No brains at all! He Xiao said. Where will some villains come to assassinate the little prince of the southern realm. It must have been done by those crossing demons, or the demon clan. ”

As he spoke, he looked at Qi Rubai, "Shizi, you said yes, right?" ”

As soon as this remark came out, Qi Rubai, who was good at smirking, had an unnatural expression, as if he had eaten maggots and stewed crows.

"These things should not be mentioned at a banquet." Qi Tai said, "No matter who instructs me, I will definitely find out." He sometimes took a bite of beef, sometimes took a sip of broth, sometimes took a sip of wine, and his mind was clearly not on the banquet.

"Go down and drink!" He Xiao proposed.

Then regardless of Qi Rusong's reaction, he directly pulled up the other party and walked to the audience.

He Xiao completely put aside the hard work of the road from the Eastern Realm to the Ghost Shadow Forest and then to Lingnan City. He pulled Qi Rusong and began to challenge the nobles in the hall one after another, this time it was the turn of a pimple-faced warrior.

This big man was already their third opponent, and I saw He Xiao wiping his mouth with the back of his hand and singing loudly. His voice wasn't bad, but it was a little rough after drinking high.

Unfortunately, the musicians in the room deliberately pulled out noisy sounds in order to cooperate with He Xiao. It's like a "beast and a girl" match, it's like flowers and cow dung, and the wind and horses and cows are incompatible.

Wang Minjun obviously didn't like such a noise, she covered her ears, her face full of disgust. Qi Rubai undoubtedly belonged to the unbearable crowd, he muttered a few words that he didn't understand, and then got up and went to the toilet.

The smoky hall was filled with a hustle and bustle of guests, and servants came and went.

When He Xiao was happy, he picked an empty seat and sat down, "Rusong, although I also hate these deceitful struggles. He lowered his voice, and then drank a large glass of wine to himself.

"But I have to tell you, you were born into one of the five great families, and you have to endure pressure from all sides. How to get along with people you don't like is the most important part of your later life.

Your brother, if not the son of the Qi family. In order to become the king of the South, he poisoned his father and murdered his brother. Such crumbs, I can't wait to pluck his skin and cramp his tendons.

But if you don't have evidence, you will be questioned if you move him. ”

Qi Rusong blinked, "Huh? ”

"Nothing works perfectly. As long as he does, he will definitely leave a clue. Be patient, find out his flaws, defeat him in one fell swoop, and don't give him a chance to turn over! ”

It's like fighting, killing with one blow and not giving the opponent a chance to fight back. Qi Rusong thought to himself.

I had to learn to read words and see the joys and sorrows that were hidden in people's eyes. Although his father behaved politely, there was a murderous intent in his expression that he had never seen before.

He didn't say much, and always scanned the whole hall with low eyes, and his gaze was very sharp. The brother next door had a hearty drink all night, and his big face full of smiles was swollen and red.

He kept raising his glass to toast, leaning back and forth with joy as he spoke. This person is really very deep, if it weren't for what happened before, he would have thought that the other party was just a gentleman who only spent all day drinking.

But the princess sitting next to him was like a cold statue.

"What is that woman planning," Qi Rusong told He Xiao, "My brother is smiling on the surface, but he is actually already thinking about his next step." ”

He Xiao carefully examined Qi Rusong and said, "Learn very fast, my Great Xia Kingdom needs a talent like you." ”

"Don't make fun of me!" He smiled bitterly.

"Let's go out for a walk and sober up." He Xiao suggested.

With that, he walked out of the hall, and Qi Rusong followed closely behind, running into the low-hanging night.

The whole palace was pitch black and full of loneliness. They sat down on the stone benches outside the hall, "By the way, you said you were going to take me to the East last time, does that count?" Qi Rensong asked.

"Count, you're always welcome."

"Then when you go back, take me with you." Qi Rusong suddenly became excited, "As long as you go and tell your father, he will definitely agree, I know he will." ”

He Xiao looked at his face again, "So anxious? ”

"Yes, swallowing the sword into the belly, I haven't learned to control the spirit sword yet." Qi Rusong said, "My father's health is fine, and I am only afraid that I will become the target of my brother's attack in Lingnan City." ”

"It's true." The corners of Bunyan's mouth turned down slightly, he picked up Qi Rusong's wine glass from the table, filled it with wine, and took a deep breath. "You haven't been exposed to these deceitful struggles since you were a child, and it's very difficult for you."

"So, you agreed?"

"Ha, since you say so, that's it." He Xiao smiled, "Do you want Su Yu to bring it?" I suggest not to bring it, it will affect us to live a fairy-like life. ”

"She'll be lonely if she's left here alone!"

"Hah, that's up to you." He looked up at Qi Rusong, "I'll tell your father about it when the dinner is over." ”

"Thank you," Qi Rusong asked him suddenly. "Ask you one thing, are you married?

He Xiao only felt a chill pierce his whole body, he pursed his lips tightly, and did not answer.

"Didn't I say something I shouldn't have said?" Qi Rusong hurriedly said, "I'm sorry! ”

Perhaps He Xiao's beloved wife died young, which became his pain.

"There's a wife!" He Xiao sighed. "I don't want to mention her, it's annoying."

So that's the case, Qi Rusong sighed. "You don't like her?"

"No man would like such a woman, he has to ask about everything, and he chatters all day long. It's like if you don't talk for a day, you will become dumb. ”

Qi Rusong smiled, "If one day you find that the person you hate the most is really not talking to you, that's the worst thing." ”

He Xiao smiled, "I hope that day will come soon."

After a few moments, the prince of the eastern realm pulled him up, "Let's go, go have a few more drinks, the addiction is back."

With that, they turned around and returned to the banquet hall, humming a love tune in their mouths.
