Chapter 123

A person who looked like a private school gentleman walked in, he looked at Qu An, and then sat down by himself, picked up a cup of tea and said, "Qu Gong, this banquet is comparable to the banquet of Hongmen, I'm afraid there will be no return." ”

"Mr. Lu, don't tease the old man, this time is not much different from the previous two times, as long as the old man's ability is still there, it will be a sure victory!" Qu An's eyes flashed with a golden light.

There are only two abilities in the world that can emit golden light, one is dragon consciousness, and the other is illusion.

Lu Jianyan raised his eyes and looked at Qu An again, he was far from Qu An's age, but it could be seen that he had followed Qu An for many years, and there were folds at the corners of his eyes, and the thin folds were the traces pulled out by the years, which was also due to people's habits. He no longer stared at Qu An, but looked at the pillars of the room, and opened his mouth to say: "Qu Gong, I, Lu Jianyan, have followed you for many years, and have been in Qu Mansion as a guest. ”

"See the words, see the words! Your ambition will definitely be able to show its strength here in my Qu'an, just put your mind at ease. Qu An stood up, in the past, Qu An couldn't stand up easily, but he had to stand up today, maybe in the eyes of outsiders, he was a bloated old man, but the real Qu An was indeed a man with a hard waist and a burly figure.

For so many years, Qu An has been covering his original body under the ability of illusion, and he shows himself to outsiders, and he is completely bloated.

In order to control the power of illusion, Qu An specially went to study "Breath Record".

"Breath Record" is a book about breath, which not only introduces the types of qi, but also related matters such as the cultivation of qi, whether it is a literati or a military general, it can be used as a book.

"See, the old man's face-changing trick will turn you into my appearance, and I will change into your appearance, remember!" Qu An said.

After finishing speaking, Lu Jianyan got up and walked in front of Qu An, and then half squatted and half knelt down.

At this time, Qu An's eyes flashed with dazzling golden light, he stretched out one hand and put it on Lu Jianyan's shoulder, and took out a face mask out of nowhere with the other hand. The face was made of qi, and there was smoke around it.

Before Lu Jianyan could react, Qu An had already slapped him on the face, and there was a crisp sound.

"It's time, sir. The subordinate who came in said to Lu Jianyan.

Lu Jianyan reached out and touched his face, and touched his stomach again, it was indeed a flat belly, and his face did not become big and round, but the person in front of him was clearly talking to him.

Qu An beside him chuckled, and then walked out first.

"Huh... Crooked...... No... See you later!" Lu Jianyan felt that it was very difficult to say his name for the first time.

"Gong Qu, if it's too late, you won't be able to catch up with the banquet. Qu An walked ahead, and walked out without looking back.

Lu Jianyan and Qu An got into the carriage with their front and back feet, and the coachman saw that the two adults were seated, so he waved his whip and set off in the direction of the palace.

"I thought about it just now, if I let General [Hou Mo] quietly lead his troops back to the court... This Northern Zhou is not in Qu Gong's bag?" Lu Jianyan lowered his head and whispered.

Qu An closed his eyes, he wasn't thinking about anything, the most exhausting part of the face-changing trick was to take out the gasification face. Therefore, Qu An needs to close his eyes and concentrate to recover his breath, so as to deal with the next possible accidents. "Returning to the court without the king's order is a felony of beheading. I don't know how many heads are enough to cut off?" Qu An said.

"But..."

"Nothing good!"

Before Lu could say anything, he was interrupted by Qu An.

Qu An opened his eyes and said: "Is it true that Yan is a fool to be the king of Zhou? Yuwen Xiao is with Yuwen Fu, and the entire royal city's guards are all his Yuwen clan's cronies, plus the guard general is in charge, this matter can only be outwitted." ”

Lu Jianyan didn't say anything more, in his opinion, Qu An's number of troops was several times that of Yu Wenxiao, and there was no need to risk his life at all.

But Lu Jianyan underestimated Yu Wenxiao, for so many years, Yu Wenxiao has only done one thing, that is, the control of the guards of Wangcheng and the escort team, these people are all his cronies brought out. On the surface, Qu An is slightly superior, but in fact, Qu An can't get out of Guangyang City, once he wants to step out of Guangyang City, he will usher in the disaster of killing. Yu Wenxiao is fully capable of killing him as soon as possible, and then blocking the news of the entire city, which is a last resort. Casually killing Qu An may lead to the rebellion of the soldiers under Qu An, and in the end, I am afraid that one enemy will be injured by one thousand and lose eight hundred.

Yu Wenxiao and Qu An, the two have long been at odds with each other, but for various reasons, neither of them has the ability to kill anyone. It was not until the visit of the envoy of Shu that this impasse was broken...... The two who have been waiting for a long time finally ushered in the opportunity to go head-to-head.

Fan Shijin and his entourage also got into the carriage, and they will also attend tonight's banquet.

The sky in Guangyang City has darkened, and it is very rare to see starlight at night in winter. The crowds in the streets were scattered, and seemed to be even more scarce than the stars in the sky.

The wordless book in Fan Shijin's hand still didn't have any hints, except for the last time the text appeared, and there was no movement since then. Fan Shijin held the scroll and slapped the palm of his other hand. When people are thinking about problems, they always like to repeat an action all the time, as if this can make the brain more focused, and Fan Shijin has been doing this action for a long time.

"Tonight's banquet reminds me of the banquet in the Southern Tang Dynasty, but this time it was not us who were the protagonists. Xiong Jingchong said something meaningful.

Liu Cong and Bai Xiyue first raised their heads, then lowered their heads, and then raised their hands to pinch their chins, and after thinking for a long time, they still didn't understand the meaning of Xiong Jing, and the two of them sighed at the same time as if they gave up.

Wei Shujin had heard about the deeds of several people, but all he heard was a few words. And Liu Cong and the others experienced an alternation of life and death, if it weren't for Xiong Jing's magic pen, I am afraid that several people would have returned to the West. Therefore, Wei Shujin naturally couldn't see why a few people were like this, because what he heard was that the envoy of Shu finally won the appreciation and trust of the Queen Mother.

The protagonist of the Southern Tang Taichu Palace was Xiong Jingchong, who witnessed a bloody scene, and everyone died in front of him almost at the same time, less than an arm's length away from him. If he could, Xiong Jingchong didn't want to enter the palace of any country, including the palace of the Northern Zhou Dynasty in front of him.

The more they tried to escape, the more difficult it was to avoid it, and before they could come to their senses, they had already arrived in front of the palace. Before he could fully react, the eunuch had already led a few people to the main hall of the banquet.

Fan Shijin put the book back on his cuffs and said helplessly: "Please, a few people, it's a feast for us, that's all." ”

"This time it should be. Xiong Jingyi repeated.

"I don't know where Brother Wenren is, whether he is safe and sound..."Liu Cong muttered to himself.

Bai Xiyue continued: "I didn't hear the big brother this time, when there is a situation, we will just smear the soles of our feet with oil, and just run!"

"Let's go in, isn't there your brother Wei?!" Wei Shujin pushed Liu Cong and Bai Xiyue in.

As soon as several envoys from Shu entered the hall, the people in this hall looked at it together.

"Look at what this is..."Liu Cong felt that these sights were like pins and needles, just block them with something.

On the main hall, except for King Zhou's seat on the platform, everyone was divided into one left and one right. The guest on the left is Yu Wenfu, and the guest on the right is Qu An.

The reason why the envoy of Shu was noticed and saluted was that everyone wanted to know which side the envoy of Shu was on.

As soon as Fan Shijin entered the door, he knew the mystery inside, put his hand behind his back and poked Xiong Jingchong, and then pointed to the right.

Xiong Jingchong immediately knew what Fan Shijin meant, and pulled Liu Cong and Bai Xiyue to the right seat, while Wei Shujin and Xiao Wu followed Fan Shijin to the left seat.

"Feel free to sit down, just sit down at will..."Fan Shijin said to everyone.

"Okay, Brother Fan!" Liu Cong obviously didn't understand the reason.

Wei Shujin's expression was not good-looking, he suddenly remembered that he had seen two dragon senses before, it stands to reason that there can be no two kings in any country, this is obviously not logical, but his dragon sense discrimination technique will not go wrong, even if the dragon consciousness can disguise again, he can't hide from his purple star eye.

This was something Wei Xuancheng learned by chance, although he didn't know why his son had such an ability, but he knew that it had something to do with his illusion.

After Fan Shijin and his entourage took their seats, everyone at the banquet was still chatting happily, and they didn't mean to look at the envoy of Shu at all, which also showed the shrewdness of the envoy of Shu, and they skillfully avoided this unfavorable point.

Pseudo Qu An also nodded again and again, he admired the envoy of Shu very much, because Fan Shijin did not hesitate or make a wrong decision for a moment, and almost after entering the door, they were seated separately, without superfluous thinking, but an instinct. The pseudo-Qu An is also Lu Jianyan, and the person sitting next to him is the pseudo Lu Jianyan, but it is actually Qu An.

Qu An knew that the envoy of Shu would not let him down, and it was impossible to let them stand in advance. But the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty in the Northern Zhou Dynasty had to stand in line in advance, not that they could not be neutral, but that neutral people had no enemies, and at the same time had no friends, and no one wanted to be caught in the middle.

"Respectfully, the king has arrived!" shouted the officer.

The crowd first got up in unison, and then fell to their knees.

"Flat. Yu Wenxiao said.

"Long live my king, long live my king!" everyone finished reading this paragraph before slowly getting up and taking their seats again.

The yellowed lights in the main hall lit up the darkness of the northern night, and if you looked down on the palace from the sky, the whole hall looked like a giant lantern. And on top of this lantern, there are dense black-clothed people, they are like moths in the night, but the moths do not go around the lantern anymore, but perch on the top of the lantern.
