The lights were on, and plates of delicacies from mountains and seas were served like meat soup and pastries. Each dish was very delicate, with a full range of colors, fragrance and taste. The beautiful and charming maid was walking around the table, pouring wine for the guests attentively, and smiling sweetly.

If you are drunk or not, you will be drunk.

Zhao Guangyi was accompanied by Li Changjing, Yun Zhonghou and Jiang Lie, and was toasted by the table with a red face. Although the opening ceremony was slightly flawed, Fu Jingtao's strong performance shocked the heroes and made him feel good. Except for Gao Zhenghuan and other few people

In addition, most guests have tried to compliment Zhao Guangyi in different ways. Anyway, everyone is carrying the flower sedan chair, so they won’t suffer any losses if they flatter a few more times.

When he walked to Fu Jingtao's table, Zhao Guangyi patted Fu Jingtao's shoulder and praised him for winning the face for the Song Dynasty. Fu Jingtao pretended to be flattered and gave him three cups to respect him. Zhao Guangyi laughed loudly

, and then grabbed him and greeted Jiang Lie for three cups before he was willing to give up.

Halfway through the wine, the atmosphere was warm, and a group of dancers came gracefully and offered moving singing and dancing. The dancers selected by the royal palace were all stunning, with extraordinary temperament, slim figure, and white skin as white as porcelain. Every move was hidden with a gentle rhythm.

After the music and dance, the audience won applause.

Suddenly, a bold voice said, "Your Majesty, you have seen all the good wine and dishes, and beautiful women singing and dancing. Do you have to take some rare treasures and take a look?" The conversation was Yelu Hu, the envoy of Bei Liao, and he

He looked arrogant and looked cold like an eagle. He was holding a silver knife to pick the bones of flesh.

The atmosphere suddenly became cold. Could this Khitan envoy want to cause trouble at the banquet?

Zhao Guangyi's eyes instantly returned to clearness. He glanced at Yelu Huge indifferently, and said with a smile: "My Song Dynasty is brilliant civilization, with vast land and vast objects, and possesses countless priceless treasures. I am afraid that the Liao envoy will not know how to appreciate it!"

Brother Yelu Hu threw the silver knife to the table, wiped his mouth with a silk squid, and smiled, "It's rare that guests from all over the world gather today. I heard that there is a map of the country and the country hidden in the prince's mansion. I wonder if I can be generous to us.

Show it?"

"Map of the country and country?!" These five words were like thunderbolts in the clear sky, shocking everyone, and then they whispered and buzzed.

Fu Jingtao murmured: "It turns out that there is ulterior motive!"

In ancient times, the Nine Cauldrons cast by Dayu collected the essence of the Nine Provinces, corresponding to the rise and fall of the Nine Provinces, symbolizing the destiny of heaven and the unification of imperial power, and was an important weapon of the country. The Nine Cauldrons went through the three dynasties of Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties, and were accidentally destroyed when Qin destroyed the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.

It will never appear again. It is said that the secret of the Nine Cauldrons is hidden in the map of the country and the country. As long as you can break this map, you can find the tripod of Dayu.

After the fall of the Qin Dynasty, emperors of all dynasties secretly sent elite troops to search for the whereabouts of the Nine Cauldrons, trying to prove that they were the true emperor. Around the belonging of this treasure map, all forces continued to kill and blood flowed into a river. The map of the country changed hands several times, but

Those who once owned it either died suddenly or died of illness. No one has successfully found the exact location of the Nine Tripods to this day.

Since the Nine Tripods represent the supreme imperial power, anyone who strives for the severity is an ambitious hero. Even if he is as powerful as Jiang Lie, he will not violate the taboos and openly express his interest in the map of the country. If it is recognized by the Song Dynasty as a rebellion by the court of the Song Dynasty, he will be considered a rebellion.

All elements and the entire sect will be implicated.

No matter how many rumors there are about the map of the country and the country in the world, who dares to ask Zhao Guangyi for verification in person?

The reason why Yelu Huge lost this matter was because he was an envoy of Northern Liao, representing the ambition of the Khitans to march south and enter the Central Plains!

Zhao Guangyi's face darkened and he frowned and said, "I warned the Liao envoy that the Nine Cauldrons are a magical artifact that I, the nine provinces of China, will never allow foreign races to be involved! Don't say that I don't have a map of the country, even if I have it, I will not give it to you.

Take a look!"

Brother Yelu Hu curled his lips and sneered: "Is it because the prince is worried that I can see through the mystery of the treasure map at a glance? I am not a god!"

Li Yi interrupted at the right time: "Prince Zhao, our ancestors have been studying for so long but have not found anything. How could the Khitans easily crack the mystery? It is rumored that this picture depicts birds and beasts in ancient mythology, and the vast mountains and magnificent mountains. Li

I also long to see the works of God!”

Sheng Shifeng said leisurely: "If you can see the treasure map with your own eyes tonight, it will be worth your life!"

Gao Zhenghuan, Meng Baiyi, Xuan Yi Zhenren, Tubo envoys and others also expressed their opinions, persuading Zhao Guangyi to take out the treasure map, which would open everyone's eyes.

Zhao Guangyi was amused and crying. The Jin Palace covers a vast area, with hundreds of houses and pavilions, countless rockery trees, God knows where there is a treasure map? Do you have to dig three feet of the ground and tear down all the houses to search? In his opinion, Chai Rong is about to die

Before, you must bury the treasure map in the palace rather than the palace, because the palace is the most closely guarded place in the world.

Zhao Guangyi looked around everyone and sighed: "Since the end of the Tang Dynasty, there have been many wars, and life is full of disasters. Who has seen the map of the country with his own eyes during this period? Think about it, how credible are the rumors in the market? If I really have hidden them in my hands

The treasure map must be as tight as a bottle. If it were you, would you foolishly disclose such top-secret news? It is obvious that someone is secretly fanning the flames and maliciously slandering me, and you are all deceived!"

Yelu Hu and others pondered for a moment, and had to admit that Zhao Guangyi's words were reasonable. Many people looked at Meng Baiyi with a gloomy expression, probably because they suspected that the Shushan Sword Sect had tricked everyone. After all, this news was first leaked by Shushan disciples.

Zhao Guangyi was so smart that he said coldly: "Mr. Meng, is Shushan spreading rumors behind his back?"

Meng Baiyi said calmly: "Your Majesty Zhao is unfounded and proof, so how can you make random guesses? Our Shushan Sword Sect acts openly and will never do such boring things."

Jiang Lie suddenly said: "It seems that Master Ji has recently accepted a disciple named Zhou Chengzong?"

Meng Baiyi smiled bitterly in her heart and had to admit it: "Not bad!"

Jiang Lie said in a deep voice: "Zhou Chengzong is Zhou Huan's nephew. He is said to be of extraordinary martial arts qualifications and has been doing well in Shushan Jianmen. I wonder if he has returned to Kaifeng this time?"

Meng Baiyi said: "Chengzong is still practicing in Shushan, so the leader will not care about it."

Jiang Lie smiled indifferently and did not comment.

After Zhou Huan died in battle, everyone thought that Zhou Chengzong was Chai Rong's son. Ji Fenglei not only personally accepted him as his disciple, but also issued a ban to prevent any strangers from approaching him, for fear that the Zhao Song royal family would send killers to assassinate him. Shushan Jianmen did this without any loss behind it.

It was instructed by Emperor Shu that he eventually wanted to disrupt the affairs of the Song Dynasty.

Zhao Guangyi smiled and said, "Zhou Huan was originally a powerful general of the Song Dynasty, but unfortunately he died young. If Mr. Meng could persuade Zhou Chengzong to return to the Song Dynasty, I would like to plead with the emperor and allow him to inherit Zhou Huan's title and land."

Meng Baiyi bowed and said, "Chengzong has joined the gates of Shushan and will serve Shu in the future. It would be better if the wealth and glory given by the Song Dynasty were not allowed."
