Chapter Forty-Six: Meeting at the Palace

After the rain, the sky is clear, and the morning is bright.

Life is full of fireworks and worries. When a shadow comes, it will fade like the hustle and bustle of the world.

Luo Xian'er stroked the soft hair beside her ears, and her eyes were clear. The plain white pleated skirt is high-waisted and tied, and the shoulders are wrapped in fine velvet shawls, and the demeanor is graceful and gorgeous.

β€œ......”

The skirt and hair swayed in the wind, and the beauty put her hands on her abdomen, silently looking at the figure of practicing martial arts all night in the courtyard, her eyes were soft.

Until Yang Shifei turned over and waved out his palm, the two happened to meet their eyes.

"When did you come?"

Yang Shifei hurriedly stopped his fists and feet, and laughed twice: "Practicing martial arts is a bit fascinating, and I only find out now." ”

Luo Xian'er shook her head: "I just came here not long ago. ”

She walked over with a soft expression: "Childe's practice is also hard, let's rest first." ”

"Okay." Yang Shifei smiled, and was about to turn around to get a cloth to wipe his sweat, when a pink and white handkerchief was handed over.

Facing his stunned gaze, Luo Xian'er whispered: "Childe also has to take good care of himself." ”

"It warms my heart to have Miss Luo's concern."

Yang Shifei took the handkerchief and wiped his forehead, and said with a gentle smile: "You look good in this dress, like a lotus fairy." ”

Luo Xian'er pursed her lips slightly, and her eyes were faint: "Childe..."

Yang Shifei cleared his throat: "I also like lotus." ”

Luo Xian'er: "......"

But she just sighed softly and whispered: "I'm going to a banquet tonight, I'll talk to Gongzi about the situation of all parties recently, so that I can be prepared." ”

Yang Shifei hurriedly responded and followed Luo Xian'er back to the lobby to take a seat.

With just a slight glance, you can still see the eldest lady's slightly red earlobes.

"Tonight's banquet is to determine the ten qualifications for command. At that time, there will be a ring to discuss martial arts, and they will be sorted by martial arts. The party that wins the qualification will be able to participate in the distribution of Taiwu Holy Soldiers in the future. ”

"But, that's just a qualification?"

"Yes." Luo Xian'er bowed slightly: "Tonight, there are people from the rivers and lakes from various provinces and cities, and there are also many geniuses from wealthy families. But after all, not everyone will gather in Dongcheng, and there are many people who go directly to the Thousand Blades Soldier Pool, not to mention people from all over the world. At that time, it will depend on who has the bigger fist and whose background is more convincing. ”

Yang Shifei thought thoughtfully: "Therefore, these ten soldier qualifications are just a good name, and they will be arranged when they arrive at the Thousand Blades Soldier Pool." And this martial arts discussion in the ring, just to start a strong momentum and fight a good game? ”

As he spoke, his mind turned: "So, is it our chance to make a name for the sect?" ”

Luo Xian'er smiled in her eyes: "Childe will pick a good time to go to the ring and fight a few times." ”

"It's easy to say." Yang Shifei rubbed his chin, thinking about how he should make a move, so as to surprise everyone and firmly remember the name of the Falling Moon Pavilion.

"β€”And in addition to tonight's banquet, I also want to talk to Childe about what the Holy Envoy of Bingtan said."

Luo Xian'er's expression was a little solemn, and she said slowly: "Yesterday, I sent someone to carefully collect information, and I did find many clues. Not only are the kings and guards gathered in the dark of the eastern city, but there are secret movements in various towns in the northwest, which are inseparable from many princes. ”

Yang Shifei was shocked when he heard it: "This is a blatant rebellion? ”

"Now that Emperor Liang is still gaining momentum, no matter how stupid they are, they won't be like this." Luo Xian'er muttered: "In my opinion, it is more like uniting several clans with deep backgrounds, wanting to test the chaos in the rivers and lakes. ”

"Sect clan?"

"Just like the princes want to compete for the throne, many sects also want to go further."

Luo Xian'er took out a secret letter from her sleeve: "There are a total of seventeen sects and clans, and they all have secret cooperation with all the princes. During the forging of the Holy Soldiers, they may gather together to stir up momentum in various places. ”

Yang Shifei took the letter and looked at it.

Seeing the many misfortunes in it, he couldn't help frowning: "With these princes, it is really the sorrow of the Liang Kingdom. ”

Luo Xian'er said softly: "Not only the prince, but also many princes and important ministers also have bad intentions. And in the final analysis, it is still the current Lianghuang who can't stop the field, which makes the domestic undercurrent surge. ”

As she spoke, she cast a calm gaze: "What do you think?" ”

Yang Shifei thought for a moment: "If there is a troubled world, it may also be a good opportunity for us to get up." ”

Luo Xian'er's eyes moved slightly: "You... Want to be an emperor? ”

Yang Shifei was stunned, and quickly smiled and waved his hand: "Being an emperor can be tiring to death, you have to live with trepidation every day, and if you are not careful, you will even cause trouble to the people of the whole country." What I want in my heart is to strengthen our Falling Moon Pavilion, and to become the authentic world of the famous town is one of the goals. Of courseβ€”"

He changed his words again and said with a smile: "If you want to be an empress, I will try to work hard." ”

Luo Xian'er smiled in her eyes and shook her head: "I'm not interested in governing the country, but I also thank Gongzi for his thoughts." ”

The two glanced at each other, each thinking in their hearts, but they only tacitly closed their voices and did not talk deeply.

Now that the sect has not yet been completed, it is too far to think about those things again.

"Childe, is Miss Yuerui going to join us tonight?"

"She?" Yang Shifei smiled: "She is a night owl, she watched me practice martial arts last night, and went back to the house to sleep during the day." Maybe when we come back from the palace, she won't wake up. ”

At this point, he was quite curious: "Miss Luo, there are only two maids in your house, where did all this secret information come from?" ”

"It's the people left by my mother's parents back then, and they are all quite capable. And Jasmine is the one who communicates with them. ”

Luo Xian'er thought of something, and said softly: "Think about it carefully, Childe has never met Jasmine once yet. After two days, you might as well let her come to meet Childe. ”

"Well, I also want to see what the maid girl who is never seen will look like."

...

At night, the Dingjiang palace is brightly lit and full of people.

Tables and chairs covered with bright red silk cloth were placed inside and outside the courtyard, and various appetizers were served one by one, and the aroma of meat was permeated.

The attendants were staggered back and forth, and the noise was so loud that it was as hot as a festive day.

But at this moment, several passing attendants paused and looked towards the arch of the cloister.

Just at a glance, all the attendants couldn't help but be secretly frightened, so handsome men.

Although the gentle woman who followed her wore a veil, she could still see her graceful figure, and the lotus steps moved lightly like wearing the stars and the moon, which made people tremble.

"β€”β€”This palace of King Dingjiang is really big."

Yang Shifei came to the palace in advance according to the invitation, and as soon as he stepped into the backyard, he witnessed this scene.

He originally thought that the Luofu Mansion was big enough, but he didn't expect that the palace would be more than several times larger, it was no different from a small park, and dozens of big red tables were placed without the slightest crowding.

Outside the palace, there are dozens of tables, and I don't know how many people from the rivers and lakes have been recruited.

"There must be at least a few acres of land in this quadrangular house."

"After all, it's the Prince's Mansion, and it's naturally magnificent."

Luo Xian'er has a hairpin tied with hairpins, and the long sleeves of the yarn are loose and hanging, and she is dressed with a graceful and luxurious charm.

The eldest lady swept her eyes casually, and said coldly: "After that, there will be warriors from various factions coming, and these seats may not be enough to sit." ”

Yang Shifei secretly smacked his tongue. Although it was expected that there would be a lot of people at the 'palace gathering', the scale was much larger than expected.

Instead, a hint of curiosity welled up in his heart.

Although he has been practicing martial arts for a while, he has even fought against several strong enemies. But in the final analysis, it is still in the 'small place' of Dongcheng, and the knowledge is still shallow.

Now it is the first time to experience the taste of rivers and lakes.

"You might hear a lot of interesting stories."

Luo Xian'er turned around and raised her hand to help him straighten his robe: "But do you want to visit the prince and them?" ”

Yang Shifei said softly: "Since you are going to the banquet, you naturally want to see it." ”

Luo Xian'er grabbed his arm: "I'll accompany you." ”

The two walked side by side through several landscape corridors, and soon walked to the stately main hall of jewels.

"-Miss Luo, I haven't seen you for a long time."

A tall middle-aged man waved his hand to retreat from the attendants, a smile appeared on his solemn face, and he brushed his sleeves and said, "With you at the banquet, this heroic event is really a lot of color." ”

"The prince has won the award."

Luo Xian'er responded indifferently: "I came here with my fiancΓ© on this trip, just to observe, and I won't mix in the banquet at will." ”

The prince smiled: "Miss Luo doesn't like trouble, and this king knows it, so I specially prepared a quiet room for you on the second floor, so you won't be disturbed by those men in the rivers and lakes." ”

"Thank you."

"This little brotherβ€”"

The prince turned his eyes and said with interest: "This king has heard about your feat, and he is really young and promising. ”

Yang Shifei calmly hugged his fists and saluted: "I have long heard of the prestige of King Dingjiang, and now I see that it is indeed his name." ”

"This king is already old, what majesty is there." The prince smiled and waved his hand: "An old bone like me, just listen with peace of mind." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Luo Xian'er again: "If there is an accident, I hope to be able to protect my little girl more." ”

"It's nature."

The two sides did not communicate much, and the prince soon left with other things.

"Miss, childe."

Sandalwood came from not far away at this time and said softly: "The attendant of the house has informed me of the location of the guest room, come with me." ”

The three of them walked down the corridor to the second floor and came to a book room with a classical style.

A table has been set up by the window, and several exquisite appetizers have been prepared.

"This house is really well dressed."

Yang Shifei entered the house and looked around, feeling quite novel. It looks like a place where literati and artists lived.

"There are many empty rooms in the palace, and these are also used to entertain guests. There are also many guest rooms in the surrounding area, where other distinguished guests will come. ”

Sandalwood came to the window and lifted the curtain, revealing the backyard view, just in time for a panoramic view of the banquet hall.

Yang Shifei nodded slightly. This location is good, and there is no need to worry that people in the rivers and lakes will pay attention to this side.

- Knock knock.

Just then, there was a soft knock on the door.

Yang Shifei turned around and opened the door, but the familiar face outside the house made him look slightly stunned.

"The Holy Envoy of Bingtan?"

"It's me."

Qiu Buhuan stroked his lips and smiled: "Brother or not, can you miss it if you don't see it for a day?" ”

Luo Xian'er and Sandalwood in the room suddenly looked back, their eyes slightly condensed.
