Nightwatcher: Fanwai 3 Celebration Banquet
At noon, Guiyue Tower, Beijing.
In the lobby on the first floor, an elderly storyteller wearing a Confucian shirt sits alone in the center of the lobby. There are wine tables on all sides. On the second floor, there are square tables next to the railings. .
"Pop!"
The old man picked up the gavel and said in a deep voice:
"Several times Cangshan sunset, the world is the most thought-provoking. I said last time that although the witch **** was forced to return to Jingshan City by the great Confucian Zhao Shou, the two sides fought a battle and both lost and hurt..."
The old man raised his hand fiercely and said with a sharp tone: "But that is the witch god, one of the strongest people in the ages, and it is hard to be buried in the sky. Even the great Confucian, I don't want to kill him. So almost, The witch **** has come back and attacked Dafeng again, but Daru is dead, who else can stop him?"
After a pause, he leisurely picked up the tea bowl, took a sip, and then continued:
"Furthermore, let’s talk about the land of Leizhou. The extraordinary powers I worshipped fought **** battles and prevented the Buddha from staying at the border of Leizhou. He did not retreat, but he fell into a life-and-death crisis. Dao Jin Lian died in his country, who is next?"
The diners around slowed down their eating speed and listened carefully.
"Leizhou and Yuyang Pass are already so dangerous, they can be no more dangerous than Xu Yinluo, who is living overseas, alone blocking the two gods and demons." The old man said with emotion:
"The world fought in that battle paled, the sun and the moon were dull, the entire ocean was red as blood, and the fish corpses were densely packed..."
The storytelling old man described the incident in a true manner, while the diners in the restaurant listened attentively, immersed in the picture outlined by the old man. .
By the fence on the second floor, Li Lingsu took a sip of the wine and said sourly:
"Speaking in such detail, Xu Ningyan must have passed it on himself."
The green-shirted swordsman Chu Yuanzhen sitting opposite, shook his head:
"It was passed down by the court.
"I've had the same version more than a dozen times. In the past few days, people in the teahouse restaurant Goulan, and even the Jiaofang Division, have been spreading the feat of Xu Ningyan. The people in Beijing know that he has become an ancient war god."
Li Lingsu put down the wine glass and said in anticipation:
"In the story, are there any details about me"
Chu Yuanzhen took a look at him:
"Tianzong Shengzi was confused for a while and wanted to respect his father on the day, and then was expelled from the teacher's details?"
"......" Li Lingsu lowered his head to drink.
Chu Yuanzhen asked, "What are your plans next?"
He refers to future practice.
Li Lingsu pondered for a moment:
"If you don't cultivate, I'm too grateful. I don't love the human sect and the land sect. I plan to go back to the original way. Well, before that, I want to upgrade the martial arts to the fourth rank."
Chu Yuanzhen suddenly showed compassion.
Li Lingsu tilted his head and turned his eyes to the lobby and the diners below, watching them show admiration, watching them rejoice in Xu Qi'an's record, and felt a little trance for a while.
"Envy you?" Chu Yuanzhen asked with a smile.
Li Lingsu sneered:
"I'm not Yang Qianhuan, these false names are nothing but clouds to me."
Shengzi doesn't like to show his saints in front of people, and he doesn't envy Xu Qi'an's reputation at all.
Chu Yuanzhen nodded:
"Fortunately, he is in retreat at the Sitian Supervisor, and he doesn't hear anything outside the window. Otherwise, I'm really afraid he can't stand this blow."
Li Lingsu smiled triumphantly after hearing this:
"I’ve been relieved a long time ago, and now I think about it, there’s actually no need to compete with Xu Ningyan. His peach blossom debt is the Flower God, Guo Shi, Lin’an Princess and Ye Ji. These women are all over the country. , It’s not a fuel-efficient lamp, it's better for him.
"Besides, my girl has a strong personality and can't rub sand in her eyes. She is destined to be someone he can see and can't eat.
"There is also Huaiqing, who is so overbearing on No.1, willing to serve a husband with other women?
"On the other hand, even though I deal with those confidantes, they are desperately trying to give me a baby."
Chu Yuanzhen showed pity again and said:
"I also made an appointment with Xu Ningyan..."
The Son didn’t care, said:
"So?"
Chu Yuanzhen hesitated:
"There is something I don’t know if I should give it to him. Well, His Majesty Huaiqing originally planned to die for the country and stop the wizard god. When I met at the border, she handed me a letter and asked me to pass it to Xu Ningyan. .
"Later, Dean Zhao Shou died for Sheji on behalf of His Majesty, but she forgot to go back with this letter."
Isn't this just a suicide note, and he named Xu Ningyan the dog thief? Shengzi's eyes lit up, and his voice lowered:
"What's on the letter?"
Chu Yuanzhen shook his head:
"Peeping into people's privacy is not the work of a gentleman."
Speaking, he took the letter out of his arms and put it on the table, saying:
"We will wait for Xu Ningyan to come, and I will give it to him."
Li Lingsu is an unscrupulous man. He grabbed his hands and started reading.
He was full of gossip at first, and he was secretly poking excited, watching and watching, his expression gradually solidified, watching and watching, his expression became angry and unwilling, and he revealed a kind of lifting a rock and hitting himself in the foot. The aggrieved.
"Why should I watch it? Damn, **** Xu Ningyan, this son has never seen such an unjust man. He is romantic and lustful, and the law of nature is intolerable."
Li Lingsu put down the letter paper, his face full of grief and anger.
That's the empress, the ninth-five-sage, the king of a country.
Such a woman, even if she is mediocre, is better than a majestic beauty.
And Huaiqing herself is a strange woman with both wisdom and beauty.
Li Lingsu, who is also Sea King, once again recalled the fear and humiliation of being dominated by "Xu Qian".
Chu Yuanzhen shifted his gaze downwards, glanced at the envelope quickly, and suddenly understood that the "addictive affair" between Huaiqing and Xu Ningyan stung Shengzi's heart.
He was jealous.
Just now I laughed at Yang Qianhuan...Chu Yuanzhen quietly put the envelope away, folded it, and retracted it in his arms, saying:
"I suddenly changed my mind again. I will report to Your Majesty later about the letter, and let her decide.
"Brother Li, let's take it as it is."
Since it's a "love letter" to confide in, it must not be given to Xu Qi'an. With Huaiqing's character, I would never hope that this letter would fall into Xu Qi'an's hands.
If he handed over the letter, perhaps a few days later, he would be beheaded by Huaiqing because he stepped out with his left foot first.
Chu Yuanzhen took out the letter in front of Li Lingsu, just to snoop on the content of the letter through him.
As for whether there is anything wrong with doing this, Chu Yuanzhen believes that Li Lingsu's privacy has something to do with him, Chu Yuanzhen, he is still a gentleman.
"Of course! This matter will never leak."
Li Lingsu agreed in one fell swoop, thinking in his heart, find an opportunity to reveal the adultery of dog men and women to Guo Shi, Miao Zhen, Lin'an and Flower God.
He wants Xu Qi'an to pay the price for his romance.
As for whether there is anything wrong with doing this, Li Lingsu believes that it is Chu Yuanzhen who has not kept the "suicide note" well. What does it have to do with Li Lingsu?
"Hey, when did the holy son return to Beijing?"
At this time, a familiar voice came from the stairs, and the two followed the sound. A plain-looking man in Tsing Yi climbed up the steps, sitting on his shoulders a girl combing a bun with meat. .
Two short legs hang on the man's chest, and a pair of white embroidered shoes are worn on his little feet.
The girl's face is round and round, and her eyes are not smart enough to make her look silly.
The man is exactly what "Xu Qian" looks like.
Chu Yuanzhen and Li Lingsu nod each other.
Why is Shengzi looking upset about me... Xu Qi'an sat down at the table, and then put the small beans down. The latter consciously went into a dry state, and started to eat.
"Your Majesty will hold a celebration banquet in the palace three days later. By the way, you will be rewarded for your merits. Remember to come and participate."
Speaking, Xu Qi'an looked at Shengzi: "Will you be wandering around in the future, or will you stay in the capital and mix with me?"
Li Lingsu glanced at him, then sneered:
"Do I need to mix with you? This saint son is a character who has a high power and a master, and he can't enjoy the glory and wealth."
Xu Qi'an said lightly:
"I discussed with your Majesty before I came here. I planned to teach you the secret of dual cultivation, and help you develop Taoism in the capital, recruit disciples, and specialize in room art. If you don't want to, then forget it."
Li Lingsu changed his tone: "The eldest brother is here, please accept the younger brother."
The double cultivation secret method can solve the dilemma that he can recover from the exhaustion of his wealth, and opening a Taoist temple is a beautiful thing that every Taoist monk dreams of.
Xu Qi'an looks at Chu Yuanzhen again:
"Why do you call me out?"
Chu Yuanzhen said without changing his face:
"Drink and eat meat."
Speaking, he mentioned his chopsticks to pick up dishes, only to find that Xu Lingyin had eaten up several dishes.
"My sister's appetite has increased again..." He silently put down his chopsticks.
..........
Three days later.
The female emperor hosted a banquet in the Xuande Hall, and invited princes, nobles, civil servants and generals to a banquet to celebrate Dafeng's smooth passing of the catastrophe and peace in the world.
As the time came, hundreds of civil and military officials entered the table one after another.
Wei Yuan led Yang Yan and Nangong Qianrou into the arena. Da Qingyi looked at the main table. Huaiqing, who was wearing the emperor's uniform, sat in the east position, and Xu Ningyan was on the left.
And beside Xu Ningyan is Xu Lingyin with half of his head exposed.
Wei Yuan groaned a little, walked to the side in silence, avoiding the main table.
"Foster father?"
Nangong Qianrou is puzzled.
The position on the right of the empress belongs to Wei Yuan.
"It's just a meal, it's the same everywhere you sit."
Wei Yuan said lightly, and led the two men to sit at the next table.
Just sitting down here, another group of people rushed in. The leader was the heroic Feiyan woman wearing a Taoist robe, and behind them were members of the Heaven and Earth Society such as Chu Yuanzhen and Asura.
Li Miaozhen glanced at Xu Qi'an, sat at the main table openly, turned his head, and found that Chu Yuanzhen and his senior brother quietly went to another table.
Seeing this scene, Nangong Qianrou's heart moved, thinking of the tragic situation of Xu Ningyan and His Royal Highness Lin'an on the wedding day, and she suddenly understood the care and dedication of her foster father.
Foster father is going to the theater again.
Sure enough, at this time a golden light general turned into a cold and beautiful fairy.
The national teacher is here.
Luo Yuheng, who was in the fluttering feather robes, silently picked up Xiaodouding and set it aside, and sat beside Xu Qi'an by himself.
On the other side, Xu Ershu took his family in a little cautiously, followed by his aunt, Erlang, Lin'an, Munanzhi, and Xu Lingyue.
"Ahem!"
Xu Erlang cleared his throat and said in a low voice:
"Father, come with me..."
I took my parents to Wang Zhenwen's table, while Lin'an, Munanzhi and Xu Lingyue took the opportunity to sit at the main table.
Next, the leaders of the Gu clan also came, and Longtu brought hundreds of clan members to the banquet, but was stopped by the imperial army outside the palace gate, and finally only brought in Lina and Mosan's children.
The court ladies and the eunuchs were holding wine and vegetables to and from each table. A little further away, the dancers of the Jiaofang Division danced for the fun, and the sound of silk and bamboo wind music was endless.
"Master!"
Xiao Douding, who was deprived of his seat, saw Lina and Longtu entering the arena, feeling that he had found an organization, and hurried over happily.
Long Tu touched Xiaodouding's head, glanced away, and walked to the table of Gu clan leaders.
Shadow Baji and others suddenly showed disgust.
Lina looked at the location of the Gu clan leader and the members of the Heaven and Earth Society, retracted her gaze, did not pass, and took Xiao Douding to the table of civil officials such as Liu Hong and Zhang Xingying.
She patted Xiao Dou Ding's head, Xiao Dou Ding suddenly blessed her soul, showing a wit beyond the past, and said softly:
"Can I sit here?"
Who can refuse Xu Ningyan's sister?
Zhang Xingying caressed his beard and smiled:
"The little girl is not afraid of life? Sit next to the old man."
Liu Hong turned his head and looked around, jokingly:
"Fortunately, Tai Fu did not come today."
The civil servants on the table laughed.
Xu Ningyan, the sister of Xu Ningyan, made a sensation in the officialdom of the capital because of her dull name.
Xiao Douding jumped on the round stool and began to eat without saying a word.
With this beginning, the scholar Qian Qingshu casually echoed:
"The official doesn't believe in evil, Miss Xu Jia's didn't enlighten, that's because I didn't meet me."
Zhang Xingying's skin is not smiling:
"You don’t need money to get a bachelor’s shot. The officer took a few days in his busy schedule to enlighten this girl~ IndoMTL.com~ Zuo Du Yu Shi Liu Hong took a sip of wine, grabbed food, and said:
"I heard that Miss Xu Jiaer is gifted in spiritual practice..."
He was stunned suddenly, his chopsticks clinked on the plate, what about the dishes?
The food was eaten up.
Xu Lingyin and Lina stood up in silence and walked to the next table.
They choose the seat where the civil servants are, and there is a table with a taker, and the two girls cleverly avoid it.
Liu Hong looked at the mess at the table full of cups and plates, and for a long while, he suffocated:
"Who said she was dull?"
.........
On the other side, Luan Yu, who was dressed brightly and charmingly, got up and left the table and walked to the main table.
