Chapter Forty-Eight: The Prince Competes for Favor and Rare Beauties Shangguan Kite smiled

Just as he was about to leave this courtyard, Li Yi felt that something was wrong and stopped.

Thinking about it carefully, Li Yi found a problem, turned around and returned to the courtyard, looking at the two corpses in the courtyard, as well as the two black and white puppets lying on the ground, one of which was also scattered.

Li Yi carefully observed the entire courtyard, not sparing a single thing.

Li Yi had a question in his heart: "Who controls those two puppets?" ”

No matter how magical the puppet zombie is, it also needs someone to control it, no matter how it is controlled, you must see that the black and white puppet is so precise just now, and the person who manipulates it must be nearby.

Now it's late at night, there is no fire around, the fierce battle just now is in motion, and now it is a little difficult to find a person hiding here.

"Is it hiding in the house?"

There was a hut in the courtyard, and the fight just now was not involved, and Li Yi was ready to find out.

Before he could step into the house, he said, "Woo Woo! Several silver needles shot out in front of him, Li Yi couldn't react, and subconsciously blocked it with his hand, and several silver needles shot at Li Yi's arm.

"Poisonous!"

There was a burst of laughter from inside the room: "Haha, the young man is still careless after all!" ”

An old man walked out of the house, it was Li Lao that day.

Li Yi, who was shot by the silver needle, felt that his internal organs were burning, as if he was on fire, and the power of qi and blood quickly dissipated.

Li Yi, who was struggling to control his qi and blood, said with difficulty: "Wugu San! ”

Li Lao was very proud and said: "Yes, it is Wugu San, the exclusive secret recipe of Wugu Old Man, how to feel good!" ”

Li Yi smiled: "It's a pity! ”

Then he took out a small bottle from his bosom, took out a few pills from it and ate them.

Seeing that Li Yi quickly returned to normal, Boss Li was shocked, "How can you have an antidote?" ”

"Don't you know that the old man of Wugu once participated in the Tianshan martial arts competition, and also obtained the treasure of our town faction, Jiuqu Gong, what is strange about me having the antidote of Wugu San??" The Tianshan faction will hold a martial arts competition in about five years, and the rewards are very rich, but it is not free, presumably the last time the old man of Wugu got Jiuqugong, he also handed over his Wugu San.

Li Lao's face was bloodless for a moment, and ordinary people who didn't know martial arts faced a great grandmaster, I was afraid that there were a thousand ways to die.

By chance, Li Yi actually had the antidote to the five grains, which is really not as good as the sky.

Li Yi slapped Li Lao's face and was about to kill.

Suddenly, there was a sudden fear in his heart, Li Yi hurriedly retreated, and he felt an extremely strong killing intent enveloping him.

Silently, a person stood behind Li Lao, and neither Li Yi nor Li Lao noticed that there was anyone else here.

A man in a white cloak stood behind Li Lao, not emitting a bit of a human breath, Li Yi couldn't even feel the qi and blood of the person in front of him, and he was a little panicked in his heart.

Li Lao was already ready to die, but when he found that Li Yi suddenly retreated, he also felt something behind him, but he didn't dare to move, for fear that he would lose his head at once.

Although it was dark now, the white cloak shone with a faint light, and the whole person was hidden in the cloak, and his face could not be seen clearly.

After a stalemate for a moment, Li Yi and Li Lao didn't dare to move, and the man in white said: "Originally, the assassination of Your Excellency failed, and Your Excellency should have taken revenge and killed them, but we are still useful to this person, you can't kill him!" ”

The voice of the man in white was hazy, as if he existed and as if he did not exist, very ethereal, and when he said that he couldn't kill, he pressed a hand on Li Lao's shoulder.

This business seemed familiar, and Li Lao finally dared to turn around and take a look.

"It turned out to be Lord Meng, thank you Lord Meng for saving your life!"

Li Lao breathed a sigh of relief, this fate was saved.

"I told you not to mix with this group of waste in the Ministry of Equipment, but you didn't listen, and you almost lost your life today, so let's go back and do your job!"

Li Lao said a little embarrassedly: "It's not that I have to come out, it's just that these two people are okay with me, just help them!" ”

Every killer in the dark department takes care of his own interests and rarely helps others, Zhang Cairen and Qin Fatzi are very good to Li Lao, so that Li Lao reciprocates Li often helps them, and later directly joins the weapon department, and the leader of the dark department is also quite dissatisfied with this.

But there are no rules to prevent others from joining the organization in the dark department, and the leader is helpless, and he is afraid that Li Lao will have any accidents when he goes out, so he will send someone to be responsible for protection.

"You're a good person, I haven't done anything serious these days!"

Li Lao knew that this person had probably been protecting himself, and it was not easy to refute, so he lowered his head and stopped talking!

"Now that they're dead, let's go back!"

Looking at the two people in front of him and talking to himself, the anger in Li Yi's heart burned again.

"Your Excellency, you can't help but take me too seriously!"

The extreme anger affected Li Yi's consciousness and made him lose the standard of judging things.

"Oh? How should you? ”

The man in white, who was just about to leave with Elder Li, stopped and said unhurriedly.

"Double Ten Kill!" Li Yi launched an attack in an instant, and his hands emitted ten sword qi to envelop the white-clothed man and Li Laodu.

Li Lao was so frightened that he hurriedly hid behind the man in white.

The man in white didn't hide or block, just stood and watched Li Yi's double ten kills.

Just when the ten sword qi were less than an inch away from the man in white, they all dissipated.

Li Yi's eyes widened, and he couldn't see how the man in white made a move.

In a second, Li Yi felt someone choke his neck fiercely, and slowly lifted himself up.

But Li Yi couldn't see anything.

Constantly attacking the surroundings with palm strength and sword qi, just like just now, they all disappeared for no reason, and the force of choking the neck was still there.

Gradually, Li Yi lost the ability to attack and struggled frantically.

The breathing gradually decreased, the blood slowly stopped flowing, and just a second before Li Yi was about to die, the force of choking his neck disappeared.

Li Yi fell, sat on the ground, panting, sweating profusely, had just experienced a life-and-death wandering, and boundless fear still filled Li Yi's heart.

The man in white and Li Lao had disappeared, and a faint voice came from the distance, seemingly nothing.

"If you don't save Li Lao and break the rules, if you dare to do it with me, it will be a dead end!"

One syllable after another dissipated, and although each word was light, it was deeply imprinted in Li Yi's mind.

………………

In the Phantom Source Pavilion, the guests are full, and all the courtiers and family members of the imperial dynasty appear here.

The prince is excited, although the rebellion of King Qicheng has defeated a house, but the dynasty has not wavered at all, and the culprit has been subdued, the prince on behalf of the emperor, rewarded the ministers, and held a performance in the Phantom Source Pavilion to entertain the ministers.

This performance, it is very rare to invite Shangguan Kite, originally the beauty was reluctant to come, but lived in Wushuang City for a while, except for the last song meeting, came once, the palace has not been carefully visited, for a time Shangguan Kite is also a little moved, the prince promised, except for a few places, Shangguan Kite can visit the palace at will.

After all, the building of the imperial palace is a collection of manpower and material resources of the entire dynasty, not under the Mengyu Pavilion, so it is a pity not to appreciate such a beautiful scenery.

The construction of the Phantom Source Pavilion is somewhat similar to the Dream Jade Pavilion, it is also a flower and grass in the water, a garden is built on the lake, and each courtyard is interconnected and extends in all directions.

The difference is that in the middle of the Mengyu Pavilion is a huge ancient building, while in the middle of the Phantom Source Pavilion is a huge courtyard, so that the ministers can watch the song and dance with the emperor, and the small courtyard is for the private rewards of individual courtiers.

Although many courtiers did not like these performances, believing that they influenced people's minds and led them to degrade into the land of fireworks.

Many ministers with strict family education do not allow their children to watch singing and dancing performances, and even do anything except the normal study of martial arts and literature, which is considered to be a serious business, and some have been revoked of the right to inherit the family business.

All the ministers present were shocked after watching Shangguan Kite's performance, including Long Yu, who was simply superb, and each scene brought people different feelings, these feelings were extremely real, even beyond the scope of what people should be, just like Long Yu's dragon array, indescribable.

Since this is a banquet and there is not much etiquette, many princes have also seen it, these princes are watching Shangguan Kite's performance for the first time, such a beautiful woman can still dance such a magical dance, which has captured the hearts of many princes at once.

After dancing, start to serve, the food in the palace is also a major feature, the imperial dining hall gathers famous chefs from all over the world, all kinds of famous delicacies in the city, basically the imperial dining can be done, some even come to the palace to season, sometimes the emperor wants to eat, each small shop will specially make a special one to send into the palace.

The food in the palace is definitely the best in the land of Kyushu.

Shangguan Kite is also very interested, after all, there will not be too many opportunities to eat food of this level.

This time, the main dish is chicken, although the ingredients are not very expensive, but the method of cooking is top-notch, first soak the chicken in snow lotus, wait until it tastes good, and then smear it with honey sauce produced by Qile Bee, and then cook it by the master, cut it into slices before it can be served on the table.

There are also countless snacks from famous people in the city, one after another.

There are more than 100 kinds of food in front of Shangguan Kite's table, each of which is beautiful and delicious, and the aroma is overflowing.

With such a delicacy, even Shangguan Kite couldn't help but eat two more bites, because of the perennial dancing, every meal has strict requirements.

Meng'er beside Shangguan Kite didn't pay so much attention, and frantically stuffed all kinds of food into his mouth, as if he was fleeing.

While eating, he said, "Miss, it's so delicious, um... Woo... Belch... Eat it! ”

I couldn't stuff anything in my mouth, and Meng'er was still persuading Shangguan Kite to eat more.

Because of Meng'er's martial arts practice, the consumption is large, although he eats more at each meal, but his figure is maintained very well, and there is no sign of gaining weight.

Shangguan Kite smiled and watched Meng'er eat Haisai, and he was also very happy, as if he was looking at his sister, and he was not sensible.

I don't know why Shangguan Kite is the one who was invited to perform the dance, but he sat in front of the stage, in the same position as the prince, and the rest of the ministers were all under the stage, and even the four kings such as Long Yu were only sitting close to the front desk, and a dancer could sit on an equal footing with the prince.

No one has an opinion on such an arrangement, Shangguan Kite also sat with his maid Meng'er, and no one had an opinion, a thought-provoking scene!

Several young princes even sat behind the four kings and the third duke, and none of them made a sound.

Shangguan Yuan smiled happily, but he was stunned by these men in the audience, and they all wanted to take good care of her in their arms.

Halfway through the meal, the eighteenth prince got up and saluted the prince, who nodded and turned to Shangguan Kite.

Shangguan Kite looked at the Eighteen Princes with some puzzlement, but Meng'er was still stuffing something into his mouth as if he hadn't seen it.

"Today, I learned that Miss Shangguan was fortunate to visit the palace, and I hereby prepared a small gift, I hope the girl likes it!"

Then, he took out a three-inch box from his arms and handed it to Shangguan Kite!
