In order to win the applause of the guests, Ou Yangguang used all his abilities, starting with a move "Cangsong Welcome", followed by a "fairy guidance", "winding path to explore the secluded", and then turned around and fell to the ground is a trick "Diao Chan worships the moon".

Zhu Wen, Li Keyong, Yun Feiyang, Hui Feng and others all stopped eating and drinking, and concentrated on watching Ou Yangguang's fencing, only to see that he was as agile as an ape, as agile as a cunning rabbit, and his figure was shining with sword light everywhere.

Li Keyong had never seen such a clever swordsmanship, and blurted out: "General Ouyang's swordsmanship can be unparalleled in the world, even if the ancient swordsman is to leave, Nie Zheng, Jing Ke and the like, they may not be able to win the long sword in the general's hands." ”

Ou Yangguang did not answer, he saw a maid carrying a food box, with a budding hibiscus flower inserted on it, the maid put the food box beside Hui Feng, Hui Feng opened the food box, and saw that it was covered with a lotus leaf full of dewdrops, wrapped in an emerald green watermelon.

Hui Feng took out the watermelon from the food box, placed it on the banquet table, and said with a smile: "It's hard to be in the middle of summer, the villain specially bought a watermelon from the Luoyang Market to quench the thirst of the adults!"

Jiang Chao heard this and said in surprise: "General Hui, this watermelon was really bought from Luoyang, Bianzhou is five hundred miles away from Luoyang, and Lord Hui really took great pains to entertain Lord Zhu and Lord Li!"

Hui Feng didn't answer, and the maid said: "How can this be fake, our Lord Hui is afraid of the heat of your lordship, so last night the third watch sent a fast horse to Luoyang to buy it, and soaked the watermelon in cold water and transported it to Bianzhou, you don't see that there are still dewdrops on the melon leaves!"

Zhu Wen listened to the maid's words, and was even more proud in his heart, thinking: The upright and frizzy Huifeng in the past has long since died, and this Huifeng in front of him is really understanding, I am afraid that he is selfish and will ask me. But it doesn't matter, officialdom is like this, officials praise each other, officials protect each other!

Hui Feng said angrily to the maid: "Mouth too much, don't give you adults a share of food!"

The maid hurriedly knelt down and said, "My lord, the slave maid was nervous for a while, and she forgot to bring a knife, how to cut this huge watermelon?"

Hui Feng scolded: "Stupid minion, don't go down and get it!"

The maid listened, and was about to turn around to get the knife, but was stopped by Ou Yangguang not far away: "General Hui, you are too difficult for this little beauty, we are all people who practice martial arts, with swords, why bother to get the knife again, wouldn't it be troublesome!", after speaking, he stepped forward with his sword, and made a move "Shifting and Transposing", like a gust of wind through Hui Feng and the maid, raising the sword and splitting the watermelon on the banquet table, everyone saw that Ou Yangguang only used three horizontal and vertical swords, and divided the watermelon into eight uniform parts, and the profile of each watermelon was flat and smooth.

Zhu Wen first praised: "General Ouyang, your swordsmanship is superb, it really opens Ben Shuai's eyes!"

Jiang Chao saw that all the guests were praising Ou Yangguang, and he forgot that he was the number one sword in the world, Jiang Chao was young and vigorous, and gradually became a little indignant, he wanted to speak several times, but was stopped by Yun Feiyang on the side with his gaze.

Li Keyong sighed: "General Ouyang's swordsmanship is really unheard of, it's just that he swung his sword and cut melons too fast just now, and the servant couldn't see it clearly, it's a pity!"

Zhu Wen suddenly glanced at Ou Yangguang, Ou Yangguang stepped forward and bowed to Li Keyong, and said with a smile: "Since the King of Jin has not been able to feast his eyes, then I will use this melon in front of the King of Jin and give it to the king again, and the King of Jin will have to open his eyes to see clearly." ”

Ou Yangguang saw Li Ke with wide eyes, staring at the watermelon in front of him, one turned around, and with a sword forward, he split the watermelon into two, Ou Yangguang didn't wait for Li Ke to turn around, and he split a sword diagonally, and the melon was divided into four small pieces, at this time, the four pieces of melon were all horizontal on the table, and it was almost impossible to divide them into eight pieces, unless Ou Yangguang used his sword to cut the tabletop horizontally, which would hurt Li Keyong.

Ou Yangguang swept the table with a horizontal sword, the blade of the sword cut through the watermelon, and the head of the sword slid towards Li Keyong's throat, seeing that Li Keyong was about to die under Ou Yangguang's sword, Hui Feng made a "tiger pounce", crossed Ou Yangguang's sword blade, hugged Li Keyong, and threw him to the ground with a chair, but Hui Feng's back was slid by Ou Yangguang's sword blade, leaving a slender wound.

Zhu Wen saw that Ou Yangguang was about to succeed, his heart was overjoyed, and he almost screamed out in excitement, but when he saw that Huifeng didn't know how to lift, he actually sacrificed his life to save Li Keyong, and his good impression of Huifeng in his heart suddenly disappeared, and he said hurriedly: "General Hui, General Ouyang is just playing a joke with King Jin, why do you want to fake it, but let King Jin misunderstand that we have ulterior motives!"

Li Keyong saw Hui Feng suddenly pounce on him, and he didn't know what had happened just now, he heard Zhu Wen say this, and also blamed Hui Feng and said: "General Hui, what General Zhu said is very true, General Ouyang is just performing swordsmanship to show the servant, how could he plot against the king in front of so many people? You have too much heart, and you almost hurt the friendship between the servant and Lord Zhu!" , but after he finished speaking, he caught a glimpse of a very fine and deep sword mark on Hui Feng's back, and the blood had penetrated his clothes, and he felt a little guilty about Hui Feng in his heart, but he had already said his words, and it was inconvenient to take them back, so he had to give up.

At this time, the atmosphere of the banquet suddenly became awkward, and Hui Feng suddenly bowed down and said to Zhu Wen: "Lord Zhu, please forgive Hui Feng for being reckless, his subordinates are really not the material to be officials, he has offended his boss many times, he has done wrong things, and today he almost caused a big disaster, so that the two marshals have a dislike for each other, this is all the fault of his subordinates, and I also ask Lord Zhu to allow his subordinates to resign from all official positions, unload their armor and return to the fields, and return to the mountains and forests!"

Zhu Wen saw that Hui Feng actually threatened him with resignation, and in front of everyone, he put himself in the army, and said angrily: "Lord Hui, you are the official of the imperial court, and now that the Huangchao rebels are rampant, how can you abandon the people and safety of Bianzhou? You just want to resign, but you also have to resign from the imperial court, and resign from the old man, it is absolutely impossible!"

Seeing that Zhu Wen was very resolute, Hui Feng forgot Xu Zhi's words to let him endure for the time being, and also replied loudly: "General Zhu thinks too highly of the villain, the villain is immoral and incompetent, how can he take on the role of the handsome's right-hand man? The villain has long been disheartened and lazy about being an official, and he also asks the adult to sympathize with the hardships of his subordinates!"

Yun Feiyang listened and persuaded: "General Zhu, the twisted melon is not sweet, since Lord Hui has the trouble of saying it, you see that he is busy today and serves you wholeheartedly, don't blame him!"

Seeing that Huifeng still didn't give him a step, Zhu Wen said angrily: "General Yun, he is young and has not yet started a family, what troubles and hardships can he have?"

Ou Yangguang said with a smile: "You don't know this General Zhu and General Yun, there is a stunning beauty hidden in General Hui's mansion, who can sing and dance." His subordinates guessed that Lord Hui must be for the sake of beauty, and he was tired of state affairs, so he had the idea of resigning!"

Jiang Chao interjected: "General Ouyang, what kind of beauty is it? I remember that the Jiang Gang Master has a righteous daughter, named He Mengjiao, who looks like a flower and jade, by the way, General Yun, you have also seen it, is there a more beautiful woman in this world than Princess Xiuyun and He Mengjiao?"

Jiang Chengfeng said with a smile: "Speaking of the beauties that the old man has seen, the most beautiful is Princess Xiuyun, but unfortunately she is in her prime, and my Mengjiao is also one, but she betrayed her father-in-law who raised her for fifteen years for the sake of a flurry boy Xu Zhi, which is too sad;

When Jiang Chao heard this, he couldn't help but envy: "I don't know what blessings this Xu Zhi cultivated in his previous life, and he is accompanied by so many stunning women in this life?"

Li Keyong saw that all the adults present were very interested in the beauty, and said with a smile: "There is nothing to fight for, as long as General Hui invites a beauty and plays a song for everyone, won't it relieve everyone's expectation?"

Yun Feiyang has always had a good impression of Li Xiuyun, since he met Zhou Yuanzhi and He Mengjiao, he knew that the beauties in the world have their own merits, both noble and elegant beauty, as well as intelligent and agile beauty, he was also very curious and looking forward to this strange woman hidden in the Huifeng Golden House, and said: "General Hui, since the King of Jin vouches for you, what are you afraid of? Are you afraid that we will not be able to snatch your beauty in broad daylight?" Otherwise, General Ben also swore that if anyone moves his mind today to snatch the beauty from General Hui's hands, he will be my Yun Feiyang's enemy, General Hui, can you rest assured now?"

Huifeng saw that Li Keyong and Yun Feiyang swore to him, and it was not easy to discourage everyone, so he had to tell the maid to go to the inner room to invite Cheng Yingying to have a meeting with everyone.

After a while, Cheng Yingying held a pipa in her arms, slowly boarded the cruise ship by the lake, came to Huifeng, and said angrily: "Brother Hui, why did you let your little sister come here to show her face?", Huifeng didn't know how to answer for a while, so she had to secretly pull Cheng Yingying's sleeve and let her be patient for the time being.

Yun Feiyang saw that Cheng Yingying was long but the willow leaves were like hooks, bright eyes, looking forward to brilliance, and the country was overwhelmed, although the elegant temperament was not as good as the princess, but when it came to being merry and dexterous, she would never lose to the princess. Yun Feiyang saw that Cheng Yingying was slightly timid, and comforted: "Girl, don't worry, today, on a whim, you instigated General Hui to invite out the beauty hidden in the golden house, and everyone here just wants to see the girl, and you have no other intentions!"

Li Keyong also smiled and said: "What General Yun said is that the girl looks like a fairy, even the gods will protect you!"

Zhu Wen suddenly thought about it and asked in surprise: "General Hui, isn't this beauty the one who sang in Caizhou Yanyu Building and slandered my second brother for killing his grandfather, that Cheng Yingying?"

Before Hui Feng could answer, Cheng Yingying replied loudly: "Yes, I am Cheng Yingying from Caizhou, but Lord Zhu, did your second brother kill my grandfather and Brother Wu Jun in Yanyu Building, but all the guests in Yanyu Building saw it with their own eyes, and Yingying doesn't need to say anything here!"

When Zhu Wen saw Cheng Yingying as soon as they met, he gave himself a dismount, and said angrily: "Cheng Yingying, you are a lowly person who sells songs, how can your words convince all the adults here? I would like to ask you, how did my second brother die in front of you and Huifeng? This was also seen by the people of Caizhou at that time. ”

Hui Feng explained: "I was in a coma in the torture hall at the time, and I didn't have a chance to explain it, today I will make it clear in front of Lord Zhu, Lord Li, Lord Yun, and all the adults, it was I Huifeng who did it, I will never deny it, if it wasn't for me and Yingying to do it, we would have died, and we wouldn't have borne this notoriety!"

Li Keyong, Yun Feiyang and others also didn't like Zhu Wen's cunning, and they all praised Hui Feng's words: "What General Hui said is reasonable. Master Zhu, what do you have to do with Lord Hui and Miss Cheng, it's been so long, you should be calm and theorizing!"

Huifeng explained: " Ladies and gentlemen, when Lord Zhu's second brother General Zhu Cheng came to Yanyu Building for a routine inspection, after he saw Yingying, he wanted to come forward to tease, and then was stopped by grandpa and Wu Jun's eldest brother, General Zhu Cheng was annoyed and angry, and killed his grandfather and eldest brother in a fit of anger, and wanted to shoot the people of the whole building, I was drinking in Yanyu Building, these are what I saw with my own eyes, I was angry at General Zhu Cheng's approach, so I used an eagle to hold him hostage, who knew that he was killed by a dark dart, and died in front of me, but I was drunk and unconscious, and it was impossible to kill him! As for what weapon Lord Zhu's second brother was killed, the case at that time was presided over by Lord Zhu, and it will be known as soon as the autopsy is performed. I think Lord Zhu should also know that Hui Feng was wronged! If this matter is not clear, I, Hui Feng, will ask Lord Zhu to resign again, hoping that Lord Zhu will let me and Yingying return to the mountains and forests!"

Zhu Wen saw that Huifeng's old matter was brought up again, and he and Cheng Yingying revealed their shortcomings together, and laughed and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, don't listen to Huifeng and Cheng Yingying's slander, these are just their excuses. Isn't it because the old man came to Bianzhou and took away his position as the acting envoy of the festival? Because of this, they resented the old man, so they resigned from the official position, that is, they did not want to work with the old man!"

Huifeng didn't expect Zhu Wen to be so vicious, splashing dirty water on himself, he was so angry that his face was flushed, and he couldn't speak.

Li Zhen saw that Hui Feng didn't speak, thinking that Zhu Wen had said his sore spot, and added fuel and vinegar and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, don't listen to Hui Feng's slanderous words, I was a scholar who went to Beijing to take the exam, and I was also in Yanyu Building, what happened is this, at that time, Lord Hui was in Caizhou Yanyu Building for Cheng Yingying, and actually brutally killed General Zhu's second brother, General Zhu imprisoned him according to law, who knew that he actually colluded with Xu Zhi and others to escape from prison, and since then there has been a disagreement with my family." Now there are a lot of people in Zhu, looking at the feelings of new colleagues, forgetting selfishness with public affairs and repaying grievances with virtue, everyone has seen it. Today is Huifeng putting aside his feelings and revisiting the old enmity, so don't you blame my family for not being emotional!"

Li Keyong saw that Zhu Wen and Huifeng were calculating the old grievances and feuds again, and the atmosphere of the banquet became more and more tense, so he quickly stood up and persuaded: "Lord Zhu, Lord Hui, please listen to the servant, you Central Plains people often say that it is better to settle grievances than to settle them, and there are still many unclear points in your previous grievances, so it is better to put it aside for the time being and shake hands and make peace." General Hui took the initiative to persuade Lord Zhu to have a glass of wine and apologize, and never mention anything that the resignation did not do, so that both sides will dissipate their anger and extinguish the fire!"

Huifeng listened to Li Keyong's words, and took the initiative to hold Cheng Yingying and bow to Zhu Wen to apologize, but Zhu Wen turned his face sideways, "hummed" from his nose, and ignored Hui and Cheng.

Cheng Yingying saw that the contradiction between Zhu Wen and Huifeng had become public and irreconcilable, she took the initiative to give Huifeng a salute, and said with a smile: "Brother Hui, have you ever regretted knowing Yingying? It was Yingying who hurt you, you suffered in the officialdom, but Yingying suffered in your heart, you knew today, why bother in the first place? Life cannot always retreat, the more you retreat, the more fate will play tricks on you, people always have to fight for themselves and their loved ones in their lives!"

Li Keyong, Yun Feiyang and others suddenly saw Hui and Cheng talking to each other, and they were all extremely surprised, even Hui Feng didn't quite understand Cheng Yingying's thoughts at this time, only Cheng Yingying saw it best among everyone, as soon as the banquet was over, Zhu Wen would inevitably start to clean up himself and Brother Hui, a thorn in the flesh, and it was better to dedicate a song to his loved one before he died.

Hui Feng suddenly saw Cheng Yingying burst into tears, wiped the tears on her cheeks with his hand, and said with a smile: "Yingying, eldest brother can meet you in this life, I am content! There is really nothing happier than being with you day and night!"

Cheng Yingying said to Hui Feng: "Brother Hui, Ying Ying has played the pipa for countless people in her life, but she has not been able to play a song for her beloved, today Ying Ying is willing to play a song "Bosom Friend", thank you Brother Hui for his lifelong companionship!" After speaking, he took out the pipa and played it gently with his slender fingers. Cheng Yingying played to the deep place of love, and couldn't help but sing in a tactful voice:

The mountains are green and the water is green.

The rhyme of high mountains and flowing water.

A voice like a cry, like a cry of sorrow.

Sigh:

It's rare to have a confidant in life.

Soulmates through the ages are the hardest to find.

Huifeng saw that Cheng Yingying's singing voice was getting deeper and lower, and he couldn't help but feel heartache. Over there, Cheng Yingying was playing and singing, while recalling that she was young and followed her elderly grandfather from one restaurant to another to laugh and sing, and suffered from the bullying of the guests, the ruthlessness of the world, but she couldn't see a trace of warmth in human affection, where was the hero who she had been looking forward to for a long time and knew that she knew and understood herself? Cheng Yingying remembered the past, and couldn't help but cry like rain.

Zhu Wen listened to Cheng Yingying's playing, stood up suddenly, and said to Li Keyong, Yun Feiyang and others: "Ladies and gentlemen, the old man is not strong enough to drink, so it is convenient to go ashore to change clothes!"
