The crowd dispersed, and Zhao Heng, in the name of the clan, specially invited all the Zhao clansmen to participate in the night banquet.

Chu Hong was actually invited as a relative.

"Chu Lang, I don't know why, I always have some restlessness, and I always feel like something big is going to happen. ”

In the carriage, Zhao Qingchan snuggled in Chu Hong's arms and said with some concern.

"Moreover, my father's performance in recent days is completely similar to before. I'm worried that he was coerced into doing this?"

Chu Hong held Zhao Qingchan's slender waist with her left hand, and she also frowned tightly.

"Qingchan, tonight's night banquet, I feel that there is no good banquet, and I found that those clansmen of yours have more or less dealings with some foreign forces, and even your royal brothers have openly colluded with major forces. ”

"Don't leave me for tonight's feast. Whether it's your father or someone else, I'm afraid we'll make a move tonight. ”

Zhao Qingchan nodded quietly.

"I hope my Zhao clan can survive this turmoil. ”

"Rest assured, no matter what, I will keep you safe. As for the others, see how they choose when the time comes!"

Chu Hong said firmly.

"It's almost here, let's get ready, by the way, how did you prepare the sword weapon that you prepared before?"

"Well, according to your request, regardless of the grade, I have prepared more than three hundred sword weapons. I wonder if it's enough?"

Zhao Qingchan gently patted a beautiful storage bag on her waist, indicating that it was all in it.

"It's almost enough! Be careful. If I can't take care of you, you can go to Senior Sister Ji and them, and they will take care of you. ”

"Why do you want me to go to her? I'm going to be with you! I'm also an innate realm, so it's enough to protect myself, okay?"

Zhao Qingchan said a little unhappily when she heard that she was going to seek refuge from Ji Yu'er by herself.

"Don't forget, I'm also a genius, you broke through the innate at the age of eighteen, and I'm only seventeen this year! She's just like that compared to me, don't look at her young, I guess my real age is probably almost thirty, right? ”

Zhao Qingchan was full of displeasure when she mentioned Ji Yu'er.

Chu Hong has a big head, and the secret woman is really troublesome, when is this happening, and she is still thinking about these things?

"Okay, now is not the time to worry about this, only to ensure your safety, I can use it wholeheartedly. If something happens to you, I'll regret it for the rest of my life. ”

Chu Hong had to be safe for Zhao Qingchan.

"Hmph! The queen mother is right, men don't have a good thing, eating in the bowl and looking at the pot, and peeking at other people's tables from time to time. ”

Zhao Qingchan reached out and gently hammered someone's chest a few times, and said with some resentment.

After speaking, he took the initiative to get out of the carriage.

Chu Hong looked at the slender figure who had already gotten out of the car, shook her head helplessly, and also got out of the carriage.

Just as Chu Hong got out of the carriage and walked towards the side hall of the ancestral temple with Zhao Qingchan, an attendant hurriedly walked past the two of them. When he staggered by Chu Hong, he stuffed a paper ball into Chu Hong's hand, and then pretended to be casual and left in a hurry.

Chu Hong glanced at the waiter suspiciously, and opened the paper ball, and only a few words were written on it, "Be careful of Zhao Heng". Chu Hong quietly crushed the paper ball and followed everyone into the banquet hall.

In the main hall, a case table has been placed, and many people who arrived in advance have already found a place to sit down and wait for the night banquet to begin.

At this time, seeing Chu Hong and Zhao Qingchan coming together, they immediately began to talk in a low voice.

"Why is the King of Qi here? Isn't this the banquet of my Zhao clan? What qualifications does he have to participate?"

"yes, that's not the norm!"

"I don't know what to do! This kid must have fallen in love with His Royal Highness our Prince. ”

"What a prince, it's just a yellow-haired girl, anyway, I don't agree. How can the throne be passed on to a female child?"

"That's right, it's a taboo for a woman to be in charge, let alone control the government! ”

"Clan Elder, you have to discuss this matter with several other clan elders and mention it to Your Majesty! ”

"Yes. That's right! Our Zhao clan is also a legacy of Chen, and there are many talents. How can you let a woman be in charge? I think the four princes are good. "This person is obviously supporting the Four Princes.

"You are the in-laws of the four imperial concubines, of course you want the four princes to inherit it. I think the Five Princes can. ”

"Don't talk about me, aren't you also the in-laws of the Fifth Prince. ”

。。。。。。

There was a lot of talk in the hall. Chu Hong was too lazy to take care of this group of old and young, took Zhao Qingchan's hand and walked past them, and walked towards the two seats in the front.

"Clan elder, look at it, this is too arrogant. It's shameless, as a prince, when he was not married, he actually did this in public, and he did such an indecent thing openly. ”

"yes, yes, my face has been lost. If you say anything today, I will also recommend Your Majesty to death, and abolish this unjustifiable prince. ”

An old man who looked to be seventy or eighty years old, probably encouraged by everyone, and then realized that he was Zhao Heng's elder again, angrily banged on the table with the cane in his hand.

Zhao Qingchan is also an innate realm, although she didn't open her ears, she still heard everyone's words clearly. Qi's jade hand clenched into a fist tightly, and his entire body trembled slightly.

Chu Hong naturally heard the discussion of this group of old and young, and he reached out to hold Zhao Qingchan's jade hand. Pull her to sit in the front row of the desk.

"Ignore them. A bunch of stubborn old antiques. Who really scarves this position, a mouse-eyed guy. Let's talk about whether they will get out of here alive!"

"Chu Lang, what do you mean?"

"Well, if I didn't expect it badly, your father might start to open the secret realm tonight, and he wouldn't wait until three days later. ”

Chu Hong said the conjecture in his heart.

"But I don't understand, what does the opening of the secret realm have to do with this group of old and young people? But one thing I can be sure of is that your father will never tolerate this group of old and young people living in this world. ”

"Then what should I do, Chu Lang, do you have a way to save them?"

Zhao Qingchan said anxiously.

"You're going to save them?"

"You don't understand, they are the foundation of this country, if they all die, then my Zhao clan is not enough to rule the entire country. ”

Zhao Qingchan said worriedly.

"Then why did your father kill them, unless he had enough chips to replace them!

Chu Hong also fell into this mystery at this time. Suddenly, Chu Hong thought of a question. Said with some horror.

"Qingchan, you say, could it be that the group of people who disappeared with Emperor Gou Chen didn't die at all?"

"It's impossible, right? they've all disappeared for seven hundred years, seven hundred years, I'm afraid only saints can live that long, right?"

"Yes, but someone just stuffed me with a letter saying to let me be careful of your father. How can this be explained?"

"Anyway, let's see the opportunity to do something later, but this group of people must be saved. I really can't imagine that one day, I will go to the opposite side of my father. ”

Zhao Qingchan didn't know what to do at this time. Things have developed to this point, and they can only see the tricks.

"Your Majesty has arrived!"

The shrill voice of the little eunuch outside the palace came, temporarily suppressing the discussion in the hall.

"See my emperor!"

"Hehe, everyone, today is our Zhao clan's banquet, you don't have to be polite, and you don't have to be restrained. Get up, all of them, and take your seats. ”

Zhao Heng sat on the main seat in the center and stretched out his hand to signal everyone to take a seat.

"Someone, pass the feast!"

Zhao Heng saw that everyone was sitting down step by step, and signaled to start serving.

"Your Majesty, the old minister has some doubts, and I ask Your Majesty to clear up your doubts!"

The old man who had just threatened to abolish Zhao Qingchan didn't wait for everyone to sit down, and stood up tremblingly with a cane.

"Oh, it's Uncle Seven! Sit down, what's the matter, sit down and say. Zhao Heng saw that it was this old man, and hurriedly and politely invited him to sit down.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, as you said, you said that this is a banquet, but why are outsiders still sitting on this hall in a grand manner?"

After speaking, he stretched out his finger and nodded towards Chu Hong's location.

"Oh, you mean King Qi! Seventh Uncle, you don't know that His Royal Highness King Qi has turned the tide several times when the country was in danger, and has made great contributions to my Zhao country. Besides, he is in love with Qingchan girl, and he is the pavilion master of my Zhao Guotong Heavenly Pavilion. I'm not an outsider now!"

Zhao Heng saw that it was Chu Hong who was the first to attack the seventh uncle, and secretly said in his heart that this was simply looking for death. However, he still explained it.

"Your Majesty, even so, after all, the King of Qi and the princess have not yet been married, and they are not considered to be my relatives of the Zhao family. Even after getting married, as a relative, he should not sit in the chief position. I think the last seat at the entrance of the palace is more suitable for him, right? A hairy boy who still can't find out the specific origin, don't think that if he climbs to the princess of the dynasty, he can show off his might! After all, my Zhao family is a lineage. The majesty it should have had to be maintained. ”

"Besides, I have been in the dynasty for 700 years, and I have not yet divided the king with a different surname. This title of King of Qi, Your Majesty should consider it carefully!"

The seventh uncle stroked his beard in an old-fashioned voice, and skimmed Chu Hong disdainfully.

"This...."

Zhao Heng was just about to answer, but Chu Hong had already stood up with a smile and a wine glass.

"I don't know what to call this one?"

"It's easy to say, the old Shanyang Zhao family, my ancestor is the brother of Emperor Zhaozong. In terms of seniority, it is His Majesty's seventh uncle. ”

The old man's head was raised high, and he didn't even look at Chu Hong.

"Hehe! What a high seniority! Who are you Shanyang Gong?"

"Shanyang Gong is my cousin's nephew!"

"Well, I understand! So dare to ask, at the beginning of the year, the Duke of Shanyang rebelled with the eldest prince, and His Majesty ordered the three clans of the Duke of Shanyang. Why are you still alive? Could it be that you didn't recognize you at the time?"

Chu Hong's words directly frightened the old man and almost sat on the ground.

"Or are you the fish that slipped through the net at the beginning? I have the sword of Shang Fang given by His Majesty, which can behead the mediocre and corrupt at the top, and behead the corrupt officials and traitors at the bottom. I wonder which one you fall into?"

Chu Hong said, pulling out the Shang Fang sword that Zhao Heng had given him personally. Lightly pulled out three inches long.

The old man who was still showing off his martial arts just now was about to behead him when he opened his mouth in front of the public, and his face was so frightened that his face was colorless. Sitting behind the desk, he didn't dare to speak.

"King Qi doesn't need to be angry, the seventh uncle was meritorious at that time and took the initiative to expose the crime of Shanyang Gong. Sit down!"

Zhao Heng was also angry in his heart at this time, when Chu Hong pulled out Shang Fang's sword just now, although he was facing the old man, he actually hinted that he could cut Yong in his words. I was also very annoyed in my heart.

"Bold fanatics, Your Majesty is in front, how can you use swords and soldiers in vain! Uncle Seventh is very old, what is your intention to threaten him?"

At this moment, another stout old man, about sixty years old, got up angrily. scolded Chu Hong angrily.

"This is my Zhao clan banquet, you are an outsider, you are fortunate to participate, it is already a great kindness, you still dare to shout here and make a lot of nonsense. According to the law of my Zhao Kingdom, he should be killed on the spot. ”

At this time, another clan member also stood up and scolded angrily.

"What's more, you are clever and charming, and you are the princess of the dynasty. Is it trying to subvert the superprogram?"

"I, Zhao Guozuo, in fact, you can control it as a yellow-mouthed child. Your Majesty, we and others jointly played, begging to remove this madman from his identity as the king of Qi, thoroughly investigate his origin and identity, and rescue the princess. ”

"Yes, remove him, and ask Your Majesty to grant it. ”

Zhao Qingchan never expected that these people would suddenly point the finger at Chu Hong. looked anxiously at his father, Zhao Heng.

But Chu Hong didn't move, and drank a glass of wine by herself. threw the Shang Fang sword in his hand to Zhao Heng,

"Your Majesty, since my existence has caused so many people to be dissatisfied, I will not embarrass you, this sword was given to me by you at the beginning, and now I will return it to you. As for the removal of my lordship, you will see for yourselves. Seriously, it's really not uncommon. It's just the cause and effect of me and your Zhao Kingdom. I can go up the mountain and practice with peace of mind!"

"In addition, if I leave, I am afraid that this group of old and young people will not allow Your Majesty to let Qingchan continue to serve as the prince. I think you can choose one more of these wrecks to be the prince. Qingchan is only seventeen years old and has already broken through the congenital, and I returned to the mountain this time to find a master for her. I won't bother Your Majesty. ”

"Qingchan, let's go!"

Chu Hong didn't give Zhao Heng a chance to speak at all. A move is to retreat into advance, and pick yourself up completely.

At the same time, he signaled Zhao Qingchan to take this opportunity to leave this place of right and wrong with him.

At this time, the green tendons on his forehead kept beating, and the uneasiness in his heart was so strong that he couldn't suppress it.

After speaking, without waiting for others to say anything, he pulled Zhao Qingchan, who was at a loss, and ran out of the hall quickly.

It was night, and the entire ancestral temple was immersed in a staggered mix of singing, dancing and bargaining.

Although Chu Hong was skeptical of Zhao Heng's words before, he didn't expect that Zhao Heng would really be so cruel that he actually ordered to kill all the clansmen of the Zhao clan to forcibly open the secret realm.
