Wuwei City Palace, the largest mansion in the northwest, the city king is the brother of the current saint. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info When the saint ascended the throne, the frontier was in turmoil, and the northern frontier was subdued by his senior brother Gao Zheng. But the 36 countries of the Western Regions are ready to move, and at the critical moment, Liu Yawang, the king of the city, acted as an angel of the Han Dynasty and sent an envoy to the 36 countries of the Western Regions, suppressing the signs of the 36 countries being ready to move.

Liu Yawang worked hard and made great achievements, and he was a relative of the emperor, so the emperor crowned Liu Yawang as the king of the city, guarding the 36 countries of the Western Regions on behalf of the Son of Heaven, and enjoying 30% of the income from the caravan every year.

Rao is only thirty percent, which is enough for the king of the city to live a luxurious life second only to the royal family, and even the city king's mansion and Luoyang do not have the dancing girl of the Western Regions. Wuwei County also developed into a prosperous county under the influence of the king of the city.

The night banquet of the Chengwang Mansion invited the prince, the princess, and Shaoyuan, while Dugu Lin and the six door people were escorted to protect the safety of the prince and the princess, and a group of eight people went to the Chengwang Mansion in four carriages.

The carriage walked slowly on the street, and Shaoyuan and Dugu Lin unexpectedly did not divide the two cars one after the other, but the two of them opened the road in the first car in front. However, such a chic arrangement was deliberately arranged by Dugulin.

"Ah Lin, are you arranging it this way to discuss something with me? Is it related to your sudden departure in Danxing Building?" Shaoyuan sat in the car, and Dugu Lin did two abnormal things in a row, I am afraid there must be a deep meaning behind it.

"The informant came to report, today I saw twelve wrestlers from the Western Regions enter the palace, it is said that the palace is a juggling troupe found in order to entertain the prince," Dugu Lin said slowly

"Ah Lin, are you afraid that these people will have problems, or are you afraid that the king of the city has ulterior motives?" Dugu Lin didn't say it explicitly, but Shao Yuan had already guessed a few points, "This is the real palace territory, if something happens to the prince, I'm afraid the prince of the city will not be able to get out of it."

Dugu Lin nodded, "I naturally know this, I'm afraid of the other one, that is, if the target is you, you don't have to harm your life, and you will be seriously injured Shaoyuan, the emperor will not kill each other for your protégé, a little punishment is nothing to the king of the city."

Shaoyuan arched his hand, "Thank you Ah Lin, but I, Lu Shaoyuan, am not kind to my peers"

At the dinner, the king of the city invited celebrities from Wuwei County, people from the Ma family, and his own generals. Although there were many people who participated in the dinner, they did not staggered as imagined, and the existence of the king of the city, as an uncle, did not deliberately embarrass the prince, but took out the grape wine from the Western Regions and drank it with his subordinates. The subordinates of the king of the city are also distinct, although most of them are from the Ma family, but there are also some old subordinates who have traveled west with the king of the city, but the number is not much, only less than ten people.

The wine was half-drunk, and I saw the head of the city king's mansion, Shan Jinpeng bowed his hand and said, "Lord, now that the wine is half-drunk, the atmosphere is just right, why not summon today's new juggling troupe, it is rumored that their skills are extraordinary, and they will be able to win the prince and His Royal Highness the Prince, and Her Royal Highness the princess is relieved."

The king of the city stroked his long beard and nodded, "That's right, I don't know if the prince and princess are also interested in this juggling in the Western Regions?"

The prince gave his hand to "the guest is as he pleases, and it is all arranged by the imperial uncle"

The princess also nodded, "But listening to the arrangement of the imperial uncle, Wan Ting has no opinion"

The king of the city nodded, "Okay, come on, summon today's new juggling troupe to perform"

Shan Jinpeng returned to the table "Xie Wangye"

Shan Jinpeng just sat down, and a young man sitting in an inconspicuous seat opposite him spat at Shan Jinpeng disdainfully, "Phew, the guy who has no ability will only offer these strange tricks to please the prince."

The voice was small, but the middle-aged man in front of the young man could hear it clearly. I saw that the middle-aged man stared at the man viciously behind him, signaling him not to make a sound, and there were many people.

After a while, a group of juggling troupes dressed in strange costumes came to the front of the lobby, only to see that they were dark-skinned, and they were not from Middle-earth at first glance, they looked at each other and did not know what the situation was, but they were not slaves of the class master, so the class master did not give instructions, and they just stood still and did not dare to make a mistake.

Shan Jinpeng nodded to the class master, signaling that the performance could start, so the class owner arched his hand to the city king, "Lord Wang, our performance may be a little special, I guarantee that you will be eye-opening", the city lord nodded and motioned for them to start.

The juggling troupe set up, only to see a few people lit fire sticks and began to dance, thanks to the large enough meeting room of the city king's mansion, even if someone wanted to perform a fire-breathing process, a long tongue of fire spewed out diagonally upward, and the wonderful skills attracted a lot of applause. Secondly, there are also juggling skills such as performing knife throwing stunts.

Dugu Lin and Shao Yuan are not in the mood to watch these performances at all, in the eyes of Shao Yuan and Dugu Lin, the things in the hands of these people never know when they will suddenly 'miss' and fly to Shaoyuan and the prince and others.

In fact, in addition to these two people, there are other people who have no intention of watching performances, such as the young man who complained about Shan Jinpeng, his name is Ma Yunfei, he is only sixteen years old this year, and his talent is the highest among the young people of the Ma family in recent years.

Speaking of Shan Jinpeng, in fact, in order to please the king of the city, Shan Jinpeng not only offered such a team, in addition to this, he also quietly practiced a juggling by himself, in order to wait until today to show what he has learned and win the peace of mind of the king of the city.

I saw Shan Jinpeng come to the front of the hall, and he could integrate into the entire juggling troupe without hindrance, and play with those jugglers, at this moment, the atmosphere present was even more active, everyone laughed, and praised the whole juggling performance was very interesting, it was really happy, and even the king of the city and the prince praised Shan Jinpeng's ingenuity.

was praised by the king of the city, but the Ma family was unmoved, because they knew that this was just fun, and it would not affect the status and role of their Ma family at all. But Ma Yunfei doesn't care so much, he just can't get used to Shan Jinpeng, in his opinion, as a martial artist, Shan Jinpeng is not based on martial arts, but is so opportunistic, which is really despicable. Seeing that the others were so intoxicated, Ma Qicai looked at the table in front of him and chose a small peach pit at a glance.

Ma Qicai squinted at the performance in front of him, the performance in front of him was a joint performance, one after another, if one of the joints was broken, the whole performance would be ruined, although the lights were bright, but during the performance, everyone's attention would not be focused on the underground, so he also had a chance.

If you make up your mind, you have to take action, this is Markicai's creed, so Marchess pressed his arm, hid his wrist under the table, disguised his behavior, and used his internal force to bomb the little peach pit at their feet.

It just so happened that there was a link in the team that would jump on the walnut, only to see that the person from the Western Regions stepped on the walnut with one foot, jumped in the air, and stepped on the small peach pit with his lower foot, just hit the foot, and then fell backwards, and the whole team immediately became out of shape, and the performance was finally destroyed by this little walnut.

After the exclamation of the performers, the audience suddenly fell into an eerie silence.

Shaoyuan and Dugu Lin breathed a sigh of relief, and when the performance was over, their pressure would not be so great.

Dugu Lin frowned, looking at the crooked crowd, and at this moment, his skills immediately glanced at the Ma family's seat. Then Dugu Lin pointed in the direction of Ma Qicai, who was showing a happy smile at the moment. Dugu Lin then looked at Shaoyuan and signaled that the accident in front of him was related to this person.

Shao Yuan nodded, signaled to understand, and then looked at the city king sitting on the main throne at the same time as the eyes of everyone present, the stagnant silence was like waiting for this prince with an uncertain expression to break.
