Volume 5 The Demon Rebellion in Southern Xinjiang Chapter 17 The guests are like clouds and the people are forced to the palace
Liu Zhenquan came to the hall, the front hall was already crowded, many people who wanted to know each other were chatting, the family at the door sang the names and gifts of all kinds of guests, and the servants who carried the congratulatory gifts were also busy.
Liu Zhenquan noticed Hou Renying who was surrounded by guests, at this time, as the little marquis, he needed to take on the task of welcoming the eldest sister, when he noticed Liu Zhenquan, Hou Renying showed an apologetic look, Liu Zhenquan just nodded and found a place to entertain himself.
The British king's birthday was not proposed by the British royal palace, but due to the spread of the Yi people, people from all over the flower city responded positively, in addition to the subordinate officials of the palace, the rich merchants and old Confucians in the city, and other unknown Yi leaders participated.
Mr. Qian was hidden in the crowd at this time, and Liu Zhenquan penetrated the crowd to the edge of his table, "Mr. Qian, you are really lazy, drinking tea here alone." ”
"Liu Daochang, sit down quickly, and you will have to deal with the difficulties of the thirty-six cave Yi people later, so let's have a cup of tea first." ”
Liu Zhenquan sat next to Mr. Qian casually, like a person who came to celebrate his birthday, and his consciousness was swept away, "Why hasn't Yiren arrived?"
"I heard from the spies of the palace that the Yirentou people drank too much last night, and they didn't come so early today. ”
"That gentleman called Poor Dao so early. ”
"I'm so busy, I can't see the Taoist chief sitting alone in the house. ”
"Hahaha....." The two talked and laughed like old friends for many years.
While the two were chatting with each other, the scene suddenly became clear, and a chant came from the door: "Thirty-six cave heads, abrupt bones, Amu, Saidang, Wu Ma..... Came together to congratulate and presented a congratulatory gift of leopard skin, 300 catties of musk, and 300 catties of black pine mushrooms....... I wish the King of England a long life than Nanshan!"
When they heard this, everyone around them whispered.
"I didn't expect these people to come. ”
"These people are really bold. ”
"Looks like they're all leaning towards the rebels. ”
"Silence!"
........
At this moment, the thirty-six cave heads came with a large group of people, and they did not make trouble at the city gate as the day before, but showed great politeness, and they all wore the clothes that the Yi people wore only for celebrations, and their bodies were covered with silver ornaments.
The four sisters and brothers of the Hou family also took the initiative to greet them, just like distinguished guests, and the two sides had a friendly conversation, and after a while, Yiren was ushered into the position he had made.
What puzzled Liu Zhen was that his divine sense didn't know where the Yi people were sacrificing, and every Yi person became like an ordinary person, and the traces of Gu worms on his body seemed to have been deliberately erased.
The reception was busy from noon to midnight, and everyone was drinking tea and chatting, looking like an ordinary birthday feast, but the royal palace guards were more close, and they didn't know what a terrible wave was hidden under the calm sea.
"Master, the donkey has been released into the sea of flowers by me, and he is having a good time. ”
"Okay, it's been so long since we've been out, and the donkey is also idle, so let's let it frolic for tonight's feast. ”
"Liu Daochang's donkey has released a sea of flowers?"
"Yes, my donkey is not heat-tolerant, and I didn't want to let it go, but the climate here is hot and humid, and the poor donkey can't bear it, so the poor donkey has to let the child put it in the water. ”
"There is also a pool in the palace. ”
Mr. Qian didn't know, and the little prince Hou Renying also said the same, but Poor Dao felt that it was indecent for the guests to come to see Poor Dao's donkey in the water, so he put it in the sea of flowers. ”
Before Mr. Qian said anything else.
Hou Peiyue said in front of the hall: "Thank you for coming to congratulate my father on his birthday, please move to the backyard, the backyard has prepared water and wine." ”
Everyone followed the servants to the backyard, and when Liu Zhenquan accompanied Mr. Qian, a yin owl's voice came from the side, "Presumably this is Mr. Qian." ”
"Didn't ask Your Excellency?"
"I am the High Priest of the Five Flowers, Hairialai. ”
"I don't know what Your Excellency is looking for me?"
"I just want to ask if the king is cured and has the best medicine. ”
"Later, your Excellency asked the county lord if it was not clear at a glance, why did you ask me an outsider. ”
The two of them came to the backyard with a wit.
Everyone has a place arrangement, the Yi people are arranged in the water pavilion on the side of the lake, and some subordinate officials of the palace who know the situation are arranged next to them, but these subordinate officials are basically military generals, and they have quietly placed weapons under their tables, and they are wearing inner armor in their brocade clothes.
These Yi people didn't know what to do, and there was no imaginary dispute, but they sat down with peace of mind, and after a while, they began to drink lively.
After three rounds of drinking, the Yiren began to shout, "Today is the birthday of the British king, why don't you see the main master." ”
"Yes, I'm still waiting for the Lord to come over to toast, why don't I see anyone coming. ”
In the main table, the four members of the Hou family got up and said to Yiren: "Everyone, the prince will be here later, let the four of us toast you a cup." ”
"No, I'm afraid that if we get drunk, we won't be able to see the prince. ”
"Yes, I'm here to see the prince, and if I can't see the prince, I won't drink the wine. ”
This is Yiren actually turning the wine glass upside down neatly.
When the military generals on the side saw it, they immediately accused: "Are you here to celebrate your birthday or are you here to make trouble!"
"If you want to drink, if you don't drink, it's not your turn to be presumptuous. ”
After a while, the two sides began to fight with each other, and they had to turn over the table and take out their weapons.
Liu Zhenquan was still drinking the wine unhurriedly, and Liu Qingyi was concentrating on pouring the wine for him.
"It seems that the prince is not going to come out, and the wine is not drunk!" A Yiren leader got up and was about to leave as soon as he dropped his wine glass.
The generals on the side also got up to block the road, "What do you want to do!"
"Go back to the palace, if it's not your turn, you can come, and you can leave. ”
"Then what's wrong with me going to do it myself!"
"Then you try!" The military general on the side was not to be outdone, and pushed back.
Liu Qingyi asked, "Master, don't you have to worry about it?"
"It would be nice if it was just like this tonight, if the palace couldn't cope with this little trouble, then it wouldn't be in southern Xinjiang for a hundred years. ”
As soon as Liu Zhenquan finished speaking, a fight began in the Huxin Pavilion, not to mention that chaos began to occur everywhere in the palace, it seems that the Yiren are not only in the thirty-six caves of chaos, but also in the city.
As soon as the palace armor guards were dispatched to calm down, more ordinary people were running around.
Hou Peiyue didn't know when to change into a pair of armor, and wanted to hang her sword and command the guards to suppress Yiren and save Baixin.
After a while, the fighting in all parts of the palace stopped, and only a group of Yi people were suppressed in the Huxin Pavilion.
"You wait to make trouble in the palace, and you won't be arrested yet!"
"Hahaha, then it depends on what you are capable of. ”
"You idiots don't look around you. ”
At some point, these people had already painted oil paint on their faces, and each of them removed a hollowed-out silver ball from his waist and shook it constantly.
A burst of bells rang out, and many people fell to the ground and began to convulse.
