Chapter 644: Life and Death (2)
The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have passed five flavors.
When the hearty Luo Tianjin, supported by Xie Xuan, swayed and prepared to leave the table, most of the people were already drunk, some people were lying on the table and drowsy, some were dancing, some were talking nonsense, threatening to drink another 300 cups, inside and outside the hall were in groups, bustling, and the scene was very funny.
"Drunk!
In the face of the successive persuaders, Luo Tianjin, whose face was flushed, waved his hand again and again while walking outside the hall: "Luo Mou has drunk tonight and got carried away, I just hate that I don't know what night it is? What year is this year? Let you laugh when you see it......
"Haha......"
Luo Tianjin's words were witty, and he couldn't help but laugh.
"Tomorrow is Laba Festival, and Luo has a great happy event to announce to you. Luo Tianjin burped while smiling indistinctly, "I hope you will testify for Luo, Luo will be grateful......
"Why should the Lord of the Luo League pretend to be mysterious?" someone coaxed, "Who doesn't know that the Lord of the Luo League will marry tomorrow, and I have already received the wedding card before I came here, right?"
"That's right! It seems that the Lord of the Luo League is really drunk, otherwise he would not have said such a foolish thing. ”
"Haha......"
With the sound of ridicule, there were bursts of laughter from the crowd again.
In fact, it is not a secret that Liu Xunyi and Luo Ningyu's marriage was canceled, and there were many people present who heard about it. It's just that Luo Tianjin, as the proprietor, has not yet been announced, and it is even more inconvenient for others to speak out as guests. Therefore, they all pretend to be confused, and they are all just playing on the spot.
"No! No!" Luo Tianjin spat out wine and said drunkly, "I have another happy ......."
"Oh?" Tang Yuan rolled his eyes and asked curiously, "Dare to ask what the joy is?"
"Rong Luo is a seller, I won't tell you first......" Luo Tianjin said mysteriously, "Tomorrow morning, you will know, hehe......"
"In that case, we will wait and pray until dawn and get a dip in the joy of the Luo Alliance Lord!"
"Haha...... It's a deal!"
As he spoke, Luo Tianjin suddenly stumbled under his feet, and if it weren't for Xie Xuan's timely support, he would have to fall in embarrassment.
Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but show worry on their faces, and scrambled to persuade: "Lord Luo Meng is drunk, please go back and rest!"
"Luo is not strong enough to drink, ashamed and ashamed!" Luo Tianjin said intermittently, "Everyone, please take it, Luo will ...... first First...... Gross!"
Before he finished speaking, Luo Tianjin's face suddenly changed, so he covered his mouth and staggered to the side, Xie Xuan, Deng Changchuan and others hurriedly chased after him and waited carefully.
In this regard, all the guests looked at each other and smiled, but they were not surprised. After all, everyone took turns to toast Luo Tianjin tonight, and it was reasonable for him to get drunk like this.
"Come on, come on, let's keep drinking!"
"Please, please, please!"
Luo Tianjin's departure did not affect everyone's Yaxing, and they were still staggering, eating and drinking happily.
"Oops, Mrs. Love!"
During the banquet, Yin Baimei, the head of the Kunlun faction, was the first to discover Ling Xiaoxiao's figure, his face was straight, and he hurriedly got up and bowed to Ling Xiaoxiao: "I've seen the wife of the alliance leader! I'm here to eat and drink and make noise, I don't know if I will disturb my wife's rest?"
"What did Master Yin say?"
Tonight, Ling Xiaoxiao was dressed in red and wore heavy makeup, not only was she no longer as graceful and luxurious as before, but she was full of charm, and even a little ...... Flirtatious. It is like the usual dignified and atmospheric Mrs. Luo, like two people.
Therefore, as soon as she appeared, the hustle and bustle fell silent, and one by one they looked at her with amazement.
There are even some young disciples, due to lack of concentration, who secretly have a secret idea of Ling Xiaoxiao who is full of charm in their hearts through the hazy drunkenness.
But as soon as her mind turned, Ling Xiaoxiao was the wife of the leader of the martial arts alliance, even if she was strong and courageous, she didn't dare to be presumptuous.
"The winter night is cold, and you are drunk again, I am worried that everyone will get into the body after drinking, so I ordered someone to boil some ginger soup, and everyone drank it while it was hot, so as to get rid of the smell of alcohol. ”
After that, Ling Xiaoxiaoyu waved her hand lightly, and all the maidservants carried bowls of ginger soup and sent them to the guests one by one.
"Although the Shaolin monks have not drunk, they have also chatted with you for a long time in the cold night, so drink some ginger soup to warm up!"
"Amitabha, the poor monk thanks the donor for the gift of the soup!" Xuan Ming clasped his hands together and thanked Ling Xiaoxiao in person.
"Whether young or old, everyone who comes is a distinguished guest. Ling Xiaoxiao pointed to the disciples of the various factions waiting on the side, and instructed the maidservants, "Send a bowl to all the young heroes, how dare you slack off?"
"Thank you, ma'am!"
Out of courtesy, everyone picked up the ginger soup, saluted Ling Xiaoxiao together, and then drank it while it was hot.
Regarding the contradiction between Ling Xiaoxiao and Luo Tianjin, there is still very little knowledge in the Xianwang Mansion, let alone these outsiders? Therefore, in the face of the hospitality of the hostess of the Xianwang Mansion, everyone can only be endlessly grateful, how dare they not know how to lift up?
What's more, Ling Xiaoxiao's father is also among the guests, and no one would have thought that a mere bowl of ginger soup could be anything strange.
Soon, everyone drank the ginger soup and thanked Ling Xiaoxiao again.
"When you come to the Xianwang Mansion, it will be like coming home, you don't have to be stubborn, please feel free!"
"Yes, ma'am!"
"Even so, I won't bother your Yaxing anymore, and I'll retire first!"
"Madame, go slowly!"
After greeting each other, Ling Xiaoxiao turned around and left. She came suddenly and went calmly, like a "virtuous helper" who took care of Luo Tianjin's guests and friends from all over the world.
When Ling Xiaoxiao walked away, there were still many people in the banquet who praised her, secretly envying Luo Tianjin for marrying such a virtuous lady.
At the same time, Luo Tianjin returned to the study with the support of Xie Xuan, Deng Changchuan, and Huang Yulang.
However, the moment Huang Yulang closed the door tightly, a terrifying light suddenly flashed in Luo Tianjin's erratic drunken eyes. Suddenly, the drunkenness was gone, and the spirit was lifted.
"Mansion Master, you are ......"
Seeing this, Deng Changchuan and Huang Yulang couldn't help but be stunned, both of them were like monks who were confused.
"I don't have to hide it from you now. Luo Tianjin took the tea handed by Xie Xuan, took a sip, and then said casually, "Tonight, something big will happen in the Xianwang Mansion!"
"What?"
Just this one word made Deng Changchuan and Huang Yulang's faces change, and their expressions became more and more confused.
"What does the lord mean?"
Facing Deng Changchuan's questioning, Luo Tianjin slowly shook his head: "This matter is a long story, and it can be explained in a few words." All I can tell you is that someone is going to kill me tonight, but you don't need to panic, because I'm ready to deal with it. You just need to brake with silence and beware of other people's lives!"
"Shhh
Luo Tianjin's words had no beginning or end, which made Deng Changchuan and Huang Yulang's hearts beat when they heard it, and they couldn't come back to their senses for a long time.
"Who is so bold as to dare to assassinate the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance?" Huang Yulang was furious, and suddenly his mind changed, and he said in surprise, "Since the mansion master expected that there would be a change tonight, why did he let Liu Xunyi send all the eight disciples, in this way, wouldn't it be ......?"
"Yulang doesn't need to panic!" Xie Xuan interrupted, "If it weren't for Liu Xunyi's transfer of eight disciples, how would we know that there was a change tonight?"
"What do you mean?" Deng Changchuan looked at Luo Tianjin, who was confident, and said in astonishment, "The more I listen, the more confused I become, why did Liu Xunyi send out the eight disciples, you only know ......?"
As for this, Deng Changchuan suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and his face instantly became extremely ugly, and he said in disbelief: "Is it possible...... This matter has something to do with Liu Xunyi?"
"In this way, Liu Xunyi is really a traitor planted in the mansion by the imperial court?" Huang Yulang reacted very quickly, guessed the key point in a few words, and said sharply, "I'll kill him now!"
"Stop!"
Luo Tianjin's face sank, and he said unhappily: "If you kill him, it's better to kill me first!"
"This ......" Huang Yulang's eyes were full of astonishment, "What does the mansion master mean by this? Could it be that I guessed wrong?"
"No!" Luo Tianjin said in a deep voice, "You guessed right, the people who want to kill me tonight are Zhao Yuan and Liu Xunyi." ”
Deng Changchuan was shocked and hurriedly said: "Zhao Yuan has returned to Lin'an, why is he ......?"
Zhao Yuan didn't leave at all, he pretended to return to Lin'an, but it was just a scene to cover people's eyes. Xie Xuan explained.
Huang Yulang gritted his teeth hatefully, and said, "Needless to say, I'll kill Liu Xunyi first, and then find Zhao Yuan to settle accounts......"
"Presumptuous!"
Luo Tianjin shouted, and the bodies of Huang Yulang, who were eager to try, and Deng Changchuan, who didn't know why, trembled, and the two looked at Luo Tianjin, whose faces were sinking like water, and they were speechless for a long time in surprise.
"I repeat, none of you can hurt a single hair of Liu Xunyi, even if it ...... He's going to kill me. ”
"Why?"
"I'll tell you the real reason later. Luo Tianjin said impatiently, "But not now, so you don't have to ask." ”
"This ......"
Deng Changchuan and Huang Yulang were full of suspicions, and they all set their eyes on Xie Xuan, and the meaning was self-evident.
"You don't have to be suspicious, the lord of the house also has his difficulties. Xie Xuan soothed, "After tonight, the mansion master will explain it to you clearly." ”
Hearing this, Deng Changchuan and Huang Yulang nodded suspiciously, although they were still puzzled in their hearts, but seeing Luo Tianjin and Xie Xuan's nervous appearance as if they were facing a great enemy, it was inconvenient for them to get to the bottom of it.
"Brother Xie, what I asked you to arrange...... How's it going?" Luo Tianjin ignored Deng Changchuan and Huang Yulang's reactions, and asked Xie Xuan directly, his tone sounding a little anxious.
"Liu Xunyi found a miscellaneous drama troupe from Junzhou, and that group of people is now in the house. Xie Xuan said very cryptically, "Today, Liu Xunyi ordered them to set up a stage in the East Courtyard, presumably ......."
As for this, Xie Xuan subconsciously glanced at Deng and Huang, who were entangled in their eyes, and then said bluntly: "Presumably, Zhao Yuan and Liu Xunyi plan to take the initiative in the Eastern Courtyard. Therefore, I have ordered Murong Bai and Deng Quan to lead people to secretly surround the Eastern Courtyard. ”
"That's right!" Deng Changchuan suddenly realized, "I haven't seen Murong Bai and Deng Quan for many days, where have they gone?"
"When it's time to show up, they show up. Luo Tianjin said secretly, "Tonight, the East Courtyard must be very lively." ”
