Chapter 24: Going to the Feast

Knowing that Li Chengqian was going to the banquet, Jiang Ji immediately said that he would follow.

"I'm going with you."

Li Chengqian's arrival brought her a great sense of security, and she naturally didn't want to be separated from her easily, even if it wasn't for a long time.

Even, if it weren't for the fact that she couldn't practice the method of forging her body in the Tingchao Pavilion, she would prefer to practice it under Li Chengqian's nose.

"Your cultivation has reached the corner of the gate, stay here in peace, wait for me to come back."

Li Chengqian smiled and pinched Jiang Xi's fair and tender cheeks, which made Jiang Xi pout a little angrily, but she didn't refute it.

However, Xu Fengnian saw that Li Chengqian and Jiang Xi were so intimate, and his slightly peaceful face twitched faintly.

As for Cao Changqing, as long as Li Chengqian does not require it, naturally where the little princess is, he will be there, and as for going to the banquet, it is nothing more than things like wind and snow, and he is not interested.

So, when he left the Beiliang Palace, Li Chengqian became a loner.

Xu Fengnian is surrounded by a blue bird dressed as a man, in addition to the blue bird who dresses as a man, he is a raunchy old yellow, and Chu Lushan, who leads the way in front of his head.

And on the way, Li Chengqian also knew the destination of their trip.

Purple Tower.

It can be called the most prosperous green building in the whole Lingzhou city.

Xu Fengnian said with a smile: "There is an Oiran in this Purple Gold Tower, who is the best at sword dancing, which can be called a must in this Lingzhou City."

Li Chengqian said thoughtfully: "Then I want to see it, but it is said that the place where the best sword dance is the former Western Chu, and this Oiran is a person from Western Chu?"

Xu Fengnian's face moved slightly, and he suddenly remembered the assassination he encountered when he came back, those people were related to the former Western Chu army.

But he soon put the matter behind him.

Right now, the King of Shu is by his side, just for the success of the marriage, and he will not watch him have an accident.

Not to mention that Lao Huang and Blue Bird are not mediocre hands, it doesn't matter what they assassinate.

Perhaps, I can also take this opportunity to take a look at Li Chengqian's attitude towards their Beiliang.

He snorted and said, "Perhaps, the Xichu Sword Dance is indeed famous."

Walking on the street, it attracted the attention of many young women.

Xu Fengnian himself is famous for being handsome, and of course, his reputation for being lustful is also not weak.

"Ah, the son is back?"

The girls hid quietly, but they couldn't help but look.

"It is said that the prince is lustful, and many girls have been snatched back to the house by him."

"It's good to be robbed of the palace by being so handsome."

"Wait, how can this son next to him be better looking than the prince!"

As the girls talked, they involuntarily shifted their gaze.

I have to say that when it comes to appearance, Li Chengqian really wants to be three points even worse.

Especially under the body of heaven and man, the otherworldly and extremely attractive temperament is not comparable to Xu Fengnian.

"Wow, who is this son? How do you walk with the son?"

"It's over, it's over, I seem to be fascinated by him."

"Why is it so good-looking, the skin is so good."

Li Chengqian's face was expressionless and he walked by, while Xu Fengnian snorted coldly and said angrily in a low voice: "No vision!"

Lao Huang smiled low and shook his head.

The blue bird comforted, "In my heart, His Royal Highness the Prince is the best-looking."

However, in a sense, this sentence has already admitted that Xu Fengnian is inferior to Li Chengqian.

Xu Fengnian's heart was even more depressed.

But thinking that the man didn't need to care about his appearance, he was much more comfortable.

However, in a blink of an eye, he remembered that compared to him, the powerless prince of Beiliang, His Royal Highness the King of Shu was strong and terrifying.

It's nothing to lose in appearance, and it's really hard to evaluate the strength of losing completely.

And just as they were heading towards the Purple Tower

, Xu Xiao arrived at the Listening Tide Pavilion.

He smiled awkwardly at Jiang Xi, who just snorted coldly and ignored it.

The personal feud is barely counted, but the national enmity and family hatred are not easy to break.

Cao Changqing naturally wouldn't give Xu Xiao any good face, and as for Nangong servant, when Xu Xiao didn't talk to her, she just didn't know.

If it weren't for the martial arts secrets in the Chao Pavilion, she wouldn't want to have anything to do with Bei Liang.

Only Wei Shuyang hurriedly got up and greeted him.

"Lord Wang."

At this moment, Xu Xiao finally felt that he was still the king of Beiliang again.

He waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite, I'll go up and sit down."

Wei Shuyang bowed again and made a gesture of please.

Xu Xiao followed the steps and went to the top floor step by step.

Above, Li Yishan has been waiting for a long time.

In the past few days, they naturally have not done nothing, and Li Chengqian's collection and analysis of relevant information, and their correspondence with each other have never been broken.

Although Xu Xiaoren did not come, it was not difficult to communicate with each other through the people who delivered the meal.

The two sat opposite each other, and no one spoke easily.

Through previous communication, they all know how tricky this matter is.

After a while, Li Yishan said leisurely: "The purpose of the marriage of His Royal Highness the King of Shu should be to take advantage of the situation, to take advantage of my Beiliang's momentum, to deter Tai'an City."

Xu Xiao was silent, they had already reached a consensus on the exchanges between them in the past few days.

Li Yishan's voice paused slightly, and he said, "Dazhu Guo should also know that none of the people sent to Shu by my Beiliang have news coming, which shows that there is an extremely terrifying intelligence agency under the command of the King of Shu.

Obviously, even if the Seventh Prince has not been in the domain for a long time, he should not be underestimated.

Moreover, Shu is easy to defend and difficult to attack, once married to my Beiliang, my Beiliang will become the most powerful barrier in his Shu.

In addition, since the Seventh Prince dared to promise to bear the military needs of my Beiliang army, it can be seen that the financial resources under his command are also extremely amazing, and the plans are very large.

However, judging from the past resumes of the Seven Princes, these are not in line with common sense.

Of course, the most unreasonable thing is the strength of the Seven Princes.

At least, I'm Beiliang, and no one can compete with it.

Because of his amazing strength, even if I have 300,000 iron horsemen in Beiliang, I don't dare to act rashly.

Unless we can find one, or several strong people who can entangle and even rival them, this marriage is almost a foregone conclusion."

Of course, what he feared the most was actually the death of Huang Longshi.

The thirteen armors of the Spring and Autumn Period, Huang Longshi occupies the third.

The name of Huang Sanjia is by no means in vain.

Especially as a strategist, he naturally knows more about the terrifying aspects of Huanglongshi than ordinary people.

The depth of his plan, the horror of it, even he is slightly inferior.

But even so, he died in Shudi.

To tell the truth, as a strategist, what he fears and helpless the most is the kind of person who can easily overturn the chessboard with his own strength.

This means that many of his plans are meaningless, and when the strength of one person is almost comparable to that of 10,000 people, the deterrence and uncertainty he brings will far exceed that of an army of 10,000 people armed to the teeth.

Breaking ten thousand laws with one force, what can he do about it?

Therefore, even if he meditated hard, he couldn't think of any way to break the situation.

Xu Xiao was still silent, but after a while, he suddenly said loudly: "The people from Longhu Mountain are here, and they want to take Huang Man'er as an apprentice."

The preface he said didn't match the afterword, but Li Yishan's eyes tightened, and he said, "What does Dazhuguo mean, driving wolves and chasing tigers?"

Xu Xiao did not deny it, and said, "Is it feasible?"

Li Yishan pondered for a long time, glanced at Xu Xiao deeply, and said slowly: "Maybe you can try, but I'm afraid that one Heavenly Master is not enough, and in addition, the army may also have to move."

Xu Xiao did not continue to speak, with an ancient expression

There is no wave, showing a bit of coldness.

He knew very well that no matter whether this matter succeeded or failed, it would be a river of blood.

But he needs to show strength, even if he has to choose to cooperate in the end, on an equal footing.

Rather than under duress, had to follow.

The distance between the two is very different.
