Chapter 49: The Night Feast

In the next few days, for some reason, Su Jingluo followed Wan Junke's rhythm, and sent thousands of small servants to sell on the street every day, comparing them with Xianyulu.

Although Shang Zeyi was puzzled, he believed in Su Jingluo and knew that there must be a reason for him to do this, so he went to deal with the affairs of the mission.

On the fourth day, the mission finally arrived at the Golden Tower.

That night was a feast for the wind.

Night, Taihe Palace.

The first day of the envoy's visit.

The lights are shining, and the faces of people coming in and out are red. The long passage, with red lanterns hanging high, is a scene of prosperity and festivity.

The guests were already waiting, and there were dozens of people standing in the forest, whispering hello in their respective teams. The ministers of the Shang State and the envoys of the Qi State stood in line, waiting for the announcement of the chief eunuch to enter the table.

Several princes of the Shang Kingdom, except for Shang Zehong, the second eldest soldier stationed on the border of the East Fence, the rest have arrived.

Shang Zeyi didn't like such an occasion, so he couldn't just push it off according to his previous temperament, but it was about his marriage, and the mission needed him to deal with it, so he still had to go to the scene.

Because of their identities, Shang Zejin and Shang Zeyi stood very close, but they didn't say a word, and there was not even a merchant by his side, everyone stayed away from him with a tacit understanding, forming a blank circle on his side, looking extremely lonely.

Shang Zeyi didn't care, since he was a child, he had long been accustomed to the eyes of these people, but he looked down on him before, but now he was afraid and vigilant, anyway, he didn't get close to him, but he was happy to be idle.

"This mission is here for the marriage of the two countries, and this matter is very important. β€œ

Unexpectedly, he thought that no one would talk to him, but Shang Zejin took the initiative to talk to him, but his mouth was not very gentle, and it was an unsubtle warning.

Shang Zeyi has a temper that eats soft rather than hard, how can he stand being taught a lesson in front of others, he sneered and said: "If I don't want to do it myself, what can you do with me, Second Emperor Brother?"

Shang Zejin's brows furrowed, and just as he was about to speak, the shrill voice of the chief eunuch came from there.

"Seated~~~"

As the chief eunuch announced that he was seated, everyone put down the greetings and talks, and Shang Zejin also temporarily suppressed his anger and entered the Taihe Hall along the long passage in an orderly manner.

In front of the hall, famous people gathered, but there was no sound.

The guests of honor on the Shang side are the heads of various ministries and princes and nobles, headed by Shang Zejin, and they are ranked in an orderly manner according to their positions. Sitting opposite was the embassy of the Qi State.

Shang Zeyi is the younger brother of Emperor Shang, and he is still the protagonist of tonight, even if he is disgusted by others, he is still sitting at the head table.

As soon as he sat down, he began to look at the envoy of the Qi State opposite.

Sitting at the head table was the leader of the division, a young man in his twenties, who saw that he was richly dressed, and there was calmness and calmness in his gestures. The young man was quite handsome, but his eyebrows were a little cold, and he was looking at Shang Zeyi with hatred.

Hey, it's an acquaintance, it's Li Konghan who lost to him in White Deer City back then.

Glaring at Li Konghan's frequent anger, Shang Zeyi returned a provocative look, raised his hand and made a cut on his neck, so angry that he almost exploded.

Then he ignored the defeat of his men and looked at the others.

Sitting in the second seat was Lin Zixuan, at the age of twenty-five, she was even more beautiful, even if Shang Ze recalled his gaze above the top, he had to admit that there was no woman in this world who was more like a fairy than her.

If you meet in the rivers and lakes, meet on the road, or meet in a wine shop, no matter where it is, Shang Zeyi will be doubly happy, but here, the relationship between the two people has become a politics, which makes Shang Zeyi resist in his heart.

He looked at Lin Zixuan and shook his head slightly, telling Lin Zixuan that the time was wrong, the place was wrong, and the way was wrong, and the two of them should not be.

Lin Zixuan was also looking at him, the two of them had the same mind, and they understood the meaning from his demeanor. Lin Zixuan shook his head first, and then nodded, saying that the world is like this, no one really lives without eating the fireworks of the world, and many times for a purpose, he has to make a trade-off.

It's that he's so naΓ―ve, and she's right.

Li Konghan on the side looked at the two of them with even more jealousy, when Li Zhaoqing was still there, he and Lin Zixuan were called the Holy Son and Holy Daughter of the Burial Sword Mansion, and they were regarded by many people as a pair made in heaven, and later only a Shang Zeyi came out of thin air, and he didn't count if he won the election of the Lord of Bailu City, but snatched Lin Zixuan from him.

He always blamed Shang Zeyi for the fault, and the hatred of taking his wife was not shared, not to mention that his current situation is inseparable from Shang Zeyi.

After the battle in White Deer City, Li Konghan's pride in his heart was shattered, and then he had no confidence, and it was precisely because of this that he would go from martial arts to trickery, and put all his energy into officialdom, so that martial arts almost did not advance an inch, and now he is only at the peak of returning to the void.

You must know that the ten people who participated in the city lord election back then were all geniuses in the world, not to mention Yang Luoyu, Yao Wang Jiang, Yi Qingqiu, Wang Zhaomo, and Nan Kemeng had already reached the middle realm of Daozang, even if the slightly worse Lin Suifeng and Sanye people had passed the Daozang realm, Shang Zeyi had even entered the realm of Tongming, and Li Konghan had returned to the realm of the peak of the void, which was like mud compared to them.

He had been taught a hard lesson by Shang Zeyi, and therefore Shang Zeyi was both afraid and jealous, when he looked at Shang Zeyi and Lin Zixuan and almost couldn't bear it, there was a faint sound of piano from the side of the hall, and there was a eunuch in the solemn palace music who shouted loudly: "Your Majesty has arrived." ”

His Majesty the Emperor, the most powerful and only owner of the entire Shang Kingdom, slowly walked over from the side with the empress, and stood in front of the dragon chair with a gentle smile on his face.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live. ”

The ministers in front of the hall knelt down respectfully, and the guests of the saluting mission bowed, and all the traces of randomness that originally remained in the hall were replaced by an inexplicable solemn feeling.

"Flatten. ”

The young Shang Emperor raised his hands upward, everyone saluted, and the banquet officially began.

The palace maid took the food plate and wine syrup to add to each table one after another, and the monarch and the minister buried their heads in eating and did not dare to speak. His Majesty didn't speak, and naturally no one dared to speak first.

"Today, the envoys are here to visit and drink this cup together for the eternal friendship between the two countries!" the young Shang Emperor raised his glass, and the ministers raised their glasses one after another to promote the friendship between the two countries and form a brotherly state.

The banquet began to be lively.

The dancing singers came on the stage one after another, and the people in the hall were dazzled by the shows. The envoys of the prince and the ministers began to talk with each other, and you came and went to toast.

Li Konghan has come back to his senses and almost collapsed his senses, he is here for the marriage, even if he doesn't like it, he can't mess things up, otherwise he won't let him go when he returns to Lin Ziqi, the prince of Qi State.

Li Konghan lowered his head and drank, his eyes staring at Shang Zeyi imperceptibly, a plan appeared in his mind, wait, even if it can't ruin the marriage, it won't make you feel better.

Li Konghan raised his glass and drank it all, because he was the leader of the mission, and there was an endless stream of people who came to toast.

Li Konghanming drank very well, and those who came did not refuse. I've been drinking almost a jar of wine since the banquet began, and I haven't been drunk at all, and I'm still drinking with the officials of the Shang State.

After drinking down the four Shang officials, Li Konghan sat down with Shi Ran, and no longer fought for wine, and talked lightly to the left and right.

Just when everyone was drunk, he suddenly straightened up and came to the middle of the hall while the wine was warm.

"Your Majesty, it's monotonous to only drink today, why don't you find some programs to help!" Li Konghan said, his eyes slyly glanced at Shang Zeyi.

Shang Zeyi sneered, the main dish of the night banquet is here, needless to say that Li Konghan's program is coming at him.

"Oh, what festival does envoy Li have?" said Emperor Shang.

Li Konghan did not slow down, bowed to Emperor Shang, and said: "I heard that the martial arts cultivation of the four princes of your country has reached the great success, and the foreign ministers are not talented, and they also have some kung fu to strengthen their bodies. ”

What is to help the fun, that is, Li Konghan knows that Shang Zeyi's realm is no longer in the realm, and he wants to defeat him with his own hands in front of the full house of civil and military affairs, and take the opportunity to humiliate Shang Zeyi.

"What does Ze Yi think?" Emperor Shang did not rush to agree, but asked Shang Zeyi first.

He knew that Shang Zeyi had recently had to sleep in the ancient lamp and Yao Wang Jiang to repair his soul and soul, and the realm had returned, but he didn't know what realm it was, so he didn't directly agree for Shang Zeyi.

Shang Zeyi got up nonchalantly and replied rudely, "Aren't you going to fight?" ”
