Being able to be summoned by Concierge was not unexpected by Jiang Lu.

To make such a big move at the luncheon, it is a sure thing to see him.

It's just that Jiang Lu didn't expect that from appearing in front of everyone to finishing the performance, the whole process would only take more than ten minutes.

In such a short period of time, Concierber, who was not at the scene, already knew everything, which is enough to show that his control over the royal palace and the entire Ulster is extremely terrifying.

This also sounded the alarm for Jiang Lu, Cú Chulainn was loyal to him, and before he had the ability to defeat Cú Chulainn, he still tried to avoid acting too arrogantly, and not to be too embarrassed, so as not to tear his face against this rumored violent monarch and add unnecessary trouble to the raid on the spiritual realm.

Following the attendants, Jiang Lu came to a palace that was even more noble than the already extravagant banquet hall.

It was supposed to be the place where the Alster high-level meetings took place, and a long table twenty meters long was placed in the center of the palace.

Wearing a crown and dressed lavishly, Concierge was at the head of the main seat, propped up on the long table with one hand, looking a little listless.

The attendant brought Jiang Lu with him, reported to Concierbert, and bowed to leave, leaving Jiang Lu alone with him.

But it seems that there are only two people in the palace, Kang Qierber and Jiang Lu, but relying on his keen intuition, Jiang Lu feels that there are more than just the two of them in the palace.

After a careful glance, Jiang Lu really found that above the dome of the palace, beside the stone pillars in the corners, there were some imperceptible shadows.

It seemed that something was hiding in his blind spot.

Concierge noticed Jiang Lu's eyes.

He said to Jiang Lu with some surprise: "I didn't expect your senses to be so keen. ”

After speaking, without waiting for Jiang Lu to say anything, he beckoned Jiang Lu to come over, and comforted at the same time: "Don't be nervous, this is not aimed at you, they are all my shadows, responsible for protecting my safety."

After all, this is a sensitive time, and Maeve may send someone to assassinate me at some point, so I think you can understand it, right? ”

"Yes, I understand." Jiang Lu replied, and then approached Concierber generously and sat down on his left.

However, Jiang Lu's heart was actually a little nervous, because he had a ghost in his heart.

Now they came with vigilance and the highest degree of precaution, so they were discovered, but at that time, they were only concerned about learning the piano and progressing, and there was no slightest precaution at all, who knows if there was such a shadow in Dectiel's mansion?

But the matter has come to this point, and Jiang Lu can't ask, so he can only take one step at a time.

So he decided to get straight to the point, and knowingly asked, "Don't you know what happened to you, King Concierber, that you summoned me?" ”

Jiang Lu thought that Concierber had summoned him for the Ulster March, but what he didn't expect was that his focus was not on this.

"I heard, you're my sister, Dectiel's personal musician?"

"Huh?" Jiang Lu was a little surprised why he asked this first, but he still nodded: "Yes." ”

King Conchierber lowered his hand supporting his chin and leaned back on the high back of the wooden chair: "She won't discuss such a big matter with me now." ”

The way he looked at Jiang Lu's eyes, there had already been some subtle changes.

This made Jiang Lu even more strange.

What's going on with this kind of old man's vision of his son-in-law?

You seem to have a problem with me.

If it weren't for the situation, now Jiang Lu would really want to take out a B-ultrasound sheet and slap him in the face, and then ask him: What grade do you still want to discuss with you?

But fortunately, King Concierber didn't delve into anything, and that subtle look was only fleeting.

Then he turned to say: "Do you want to consider becoming a court bard, Addison is old, he can't sit in this position for a few years, you just have to wait for a while, just rely on this "Ulster March", and the position of chief will be yours in the future, how about it?" ”

"This"

Jiang Lu was stunned.

He never expected it to unfold like this.

Although he thought that maybe according to his own ideas in the end, it would be such a result, and everyone expected it, but he didn't expect it to be so smooth and simple.

It was so simple that he thought Concierber was a little sloppy.

He couldn't even help but think about Concierber, "Is this a little too rash, king?" You haven't even heard my tunes with your own ears. ”

Concierge smiled and asked, "Who said I hadn't heard it with my own ears?" ”

"But you"

"You mean I'm here, how can I hear the sound of the banquet hall?"

King Concierge pointed to his ears and said with a mysterious expression:

"This is my palace, do you think that everything that happens in the palace can escape my ears? I can hear you and Addison in his piano room clearly, and after all, I have witnessed the whole process from your composition to being able to play proficiently. ”

Jiang Lu's heart was shocked, followed by a piercing chill.

A few people knew about going to see Addison on their own, but apart from the guard who led the way, and Cú Chulainn, Ghostface Fox and Heavy Artillery certainly couldn't have told Concierber about it.

And even if the guard or Cúchulainn had been informed, it would have been impossible to hear the content of his conversation with Addison, let alone know that his music was ready-made.

So is it Addison?

It's impossible, because from beginning to end, Addison has never left Jiang Lu's sight, let alone going to tell the whistle in person, and it is impossible to even arrange someone to tell the whistle.

So how did Concierge know about these things?

Could it be that it is forced to raise a tailwind ear?

Seeing Jiang Lu's shocked face, Concierber's smile was even worse, and he seemed to be satisfied with his reaction.

"Don't be nervous, I don't mean anything bad towards you, and you should be glad that you never said anything bad about me behind my back, otherwise even if you were a harp genius, I wouldn't have talked to you so calmly, and maybe you wouldn't have had the chance to perform at the luncheon, and we wouldn't have met here."

"Where would that be?"

"Dungeon? Gallows? Who knows? Concierge patted Jiang Lu's shoulder comfortingly: "But since it didn't happen, don't think about it." ”

Jiang Lu adjusted his emotions and bowed his head slightly, indicating that he understood.

To tell the truth, at the beginning of Concierber's invitation to come to the court, he was indeed a little moved.

The closer you are to Concierge you are, the better you can gather information.

But now, he only felt that he must not go near the palace.

Although I don't know how he did it, everything that happened in the palace was undoubtedly under his surveillance, and this environment was too dangerous to be used as a place to gather intelligence.

If he hadn't known about this in advance, and if Cú Chulainn had separated him from the ghost-faced fox and the heavy artillery from the moment he entered the palace, the two of them would have said something terrible as long as they had the opportunity to be alone together.

If the tavern had heard the words, it would not have been time to think about how to make a name for herself in the Ulster.

I guess it's all about how to bring the talent to Connaught and attack Ulster with Mr. Damei.

Thinking of this, Jiang Lu also said with some embarrassment: "Thank you for your appreciation, but Princess Dectel appreciated me before and had a kindness that was difficult to reciprocate for me, and I really can't give it up, so please allow me to refuse your proposal."

But rest assured, there is no doubt that I will contribute to the best of my ability, wherever I am. ”

"Ah, refuse," Concierber said with a look of regret, "There are not many people who reject me." ”

In this moment, Concierber's temperament changed.

His languidness vanished without a trace, replaced by a harshness and indifference.

"In that case, then you should go into battle with Cú Chulainn this afternoon, and you and your friend, the druid and the master of the tomahawk, are not cursed, this is the perfect time for you to shine."

Concierber looked serious.

"Huh?" Jiang Lu was stunned.

Concierge didn't seem to want to say anything more to Jiang Lu, knocked on the table, and the attendant who had been waiting at the door pushed the door and entered.

"Take Master Jiang Ge back." Concierge commanded.

"Yes."

Jiang Lu also realized that the conversation should have collapsed.

But he didn't regret it, after all, he couldn't put himself in such a dangerous situation, looking at Concierber's temperament, the officials who could survive in the palace to the current level, whether they knew more or less that he had a way to know everything that happened in the palace.

Therefore, everyone will definitely be secretive about the affairs of Concierge and the royal family, and they will not get any useful information, which means that being a court bard is not only extremely risky, but also has no corresponding reward.

So apart from refusal, Jiang Lu actually had no choice.

So Jiang Lu didn't say anything more, and left the palace with the attendants.

And after Jiang Lu left, Concierge waved his hand again.

In the next moment, a samurai appeared out of thin air behind him, covered in pitch-black armor, revealing only a pair of eyes.

"After the banquet, tell Cú Chulainn to find a way to let him die on the battlefield."

The samurai didn't speak, but after receiving the order, he disappeared into thin air

Back in the banquet hall, the ghost-faced fox and the heavy artillery immediately asked Jiang Lu what they had talked about with Concierge.

But Jiang Lu, who already knew the danger of the palace at this time, didn't dare to say anything, but said casually: "It's nothing, it's just that King Concierber wants to recruit me to become a court bard." ”

But when he said this, Jiang Lu dipped some wine in the wine glass with his hand and wrote a few words on the table where the snacks were placed-

Don't talk nonsense, Concierge can hear everything in the palace.

After writing, Jiang Lu quickly erased the words again.

The ghost-faced fox and the heavy artillery were both taken aback, and when they looked at each other, they were silent.

During the whole banquet process, Jiang Lu kept his head down, someone came to talk to him and wanted to get to know him, he also talked to people, behaved very naturally, no one was looking for him, he concentrated on eating.

In this process, even Cú Chulainn, who had changed his opinion of Jiang Lu because of the march, wanted to say something to ease the relationship between the two, Jiang Lu suppressed the urge to jump his face and express his cordiality and friendliness deliberately and abnormally.

Cú Chulainn was again a very subjective person.

When his opinion of Jiang Lu changed slightly, he soon discovered many advantages in Jiang Lu.

Although the duel still has to be dueled, he has already made a decision in his heart that he must spare Jiang Lu's life when the time comes.

Finally, when the banquet was over, Jiang Lu told Cú Chulainn that Concierber had asked them to go on the expedition, and although the latter thought it was strange, because it was Concierbo's order, he did not question anything, but only agreed with the three of them on a time and place, and went to prepare.

Jiang Lu, on the other hand, rushed to Dectiel as soon as possible, because he had something to confirm.

As for the ghost-faced fox and the heavy artillery, they went to prepare the military supplies that the three of them needed for the expedition.

As soon as he saw Dextell, Jiang Lu immediately asked, "Do you have that kind of secret room here, that is, a place that will never be monitored or monitored?" ”

Dectiel was thoughtful, and instantly thought of something, and he didn't talk nonsense, and nodded: "Follow me." ”

Following Dectiel, the two soon came to a secret room.

The entrance to this secret room is narrow, and there is a long ladder that can be seen in the basement, so even if someone sneaks in to keep watch, then it can be detected first.

"As soon as I heard that you played epic music at the luncheon, I felt like something was going to happen, and sure enough." As soon as he entered the chamber, Dectel sighed: "It seems that you already know the horror of Concierber, I told you to stay away from the palace, but you didn't listen." ”

Jiang Lu was a little embarrassed, who knew that Kangqi Erber would be so rebellious.

Said yes is very friendly? Ghost-faced foxes and heavy artillery lie about the military situation!

"I'm not here to talk about this." Jiang Lu waved his hand: "I must have been followed since I left the palace, so let's make a long story short." ”

With that, Jiang Lu briefly described the events in the palace to Dectiel.

After that, he asked, "So do you know what the hell is going on?" ”

Now that he has torn his face with Concierbo, Jiang Lu doesn't even know what Concierbo's thunder point is, which is quite aggrieved.

So he was going to pry something out of Dectiel as soon as he could.

The so-called enemy of the enemy is a friend, although the two of them are brother and sister, Jiang Lu can be sure that Dectiel must have a big complaint against Concierber.

Ten thousand steps back, even if blood is thicker than water, Dectel finally stood on Concierber's side, and the matter has come to this point, there is nothing to scruple about.

As long as you are not in the palace, it is the sky is high and the birds can fly, bring the talent to Connaught, and then make a "Connaught March", one draft and multiple submissions!

In the face of Jiang Lu's questioning, he learned that Concierber had already done something to him, and Dectel no longer hid it.

"In his dormitory, there is a microphone that connects all the rooms in the palace, as long as he picks up any of them, he can hear everything that happens in the corresponding room, and when you enter the palace, someone will tell him, as long as he knows where you are, he will naturally hear what you say."

Dectair said helplessly:

"You should be glad that he did not know about our affairs, so he gave you the opportunity to play, and because of this, you have established a glorious image in front of the prince and noble, and he has no way to dispose of you for no reason, otherwise you will already be a corpse the moment you refuse his solicitation.

But that doesn't mean you're safe, and from what I know of him, he forced you to go to war, intending to make you die unexpectedly on the battlefield.

In this way, he will make your death so natural that even if someone has any doubts, he will not dare to say anything.

And for the people who don't know why, they will simply think that you died in battle, so that although you will be honored after death, what does this mean to you? ”

"No, why?" Jiang Lu was a little indignant: "If you refuse him, you have to die?" What glass hearts? ”

"Of course, rejecting him is not a crime to death, but your identity is special, and you are my personal musician on the surface, aren't you?" Dectair sighed, "You rejected him and chose me, making him feel threatened, he has always been a sensitive and suspicious person. ”

"I don't understand." Jiang Lu asked suspiciously: "You don't have any real power, what threat can he feel, is it possible that you can still snatch his throne?" ”

"No, of course not, I'm talking about threats." Dectair stopped talking.

"Why, exactly? Say it quickly. Jiang Lu was about to die when he saw her like this.

Maybe it's because Dectiel has been suppressed for a long time and urgently needs the right opportunity to release it, or maybe it's because she was completely controlled by Jiang Lu and loved him to death, in short, after some hesitation, she still chose to confide in the truth heavily.

"Setant, my son, and at the same time his own son."
