Chapter 129 Banquet
After the envoys entered the city, there was another busy moment. Xu Haifeng saw that it was too late and thought that he would go to the King of Wu's mansion to have a banquet. So he left the brigade of troops on the excuse that there was something in the army. Only Su Chunwei and others came to meet the emperor and resumed the imperial edict.
If other generals had done such unruly behavior, Su Chunwei would have long refuted each other, but when faced with the commander of the Black Flag Army, he thought about it over and over again, and finally he never mentioned it and said that he had never seen it.
He first placed Lin Wanxian and Liu Ting in the military camp outside the city. The Bloody Wine Warriors are different from ordinary soldiers. Even masters of the Grandmaster level cannot pass their ubiquitous patrol network. This is also the reason why Li Yanbo, who explored the Black Flag Army camp three times, eventually returned in vain.
The first person he went to the city to pay homage was his adoptive father Fang Lingtian.
When I arrived at Fang Mansion, I informed me, but I didn’t expect that Fang Yingying would come out to greet me.
Miss Fang took him and rushed around the Fang Mansion without restraint. When the servants saw this situation, they were all very surprised and immediately looked at the upstart of the Fang family.
"Little sister, is this your boudoir?" Xu Haifeng asked in surprise when he saw the room full of swords and weapons.
Fang Yingying nodded, looked at Xu Haifeng and said seriously: "Brother, I have never liked the skills of my daughter's family since I was a child. I just admire my brothers' heroic spirit, so I really cannot compare with the sisters. But this is my nature. Master Jiang Da Jun taught me that the country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change. If I force myself to change my personality, then I will become not me. Brother, you have to think clearly, can you really accept such a daughter's family?"
A trace of pity flashed through Xu Haifeng's heart. Through his spiritual sense, he naturally knew that when Fang Yingying said this, she was also uneasy and obviously extremely nervous.
He pulled Fang Yingying's little hand and smiled softly, "Ying'er, I heard Brother Xiang Ming talk about you long ago when I had never seen you. I was very curious at that time, how could there be such a strange girl in the world. Until I saw you, I can't forget your heroic appearance and your straightforwardness and cuteness. Even in the Huns, I have never forgotten for a moment. Are you satisfied with me by saying this?"
Fang Yingying Hongshanshan's pretty face showed a happy smile. She looked up at Xu Haifeng bravely and said, "Since the eldest brother does not dislike the younger sister, then the younger sister will live up to the older brother for the rest of her life."
Xu Haifeng tightened the young girl's jade hand, suddenly thought of something and asked, "Where is the adoptive father?"
He has been in Fang's mansion for a while, but why haven't he seen Fang Lingtian yet? No matter how busy he is in official business, he will never be able to abandon his adopted son and future son-in-law.
"Since Su Chunwei met with the emperor, the emperor summoned his father and has not returned yet," Fang Yingying explained.
So that's it, Su Chunwei must have reported the alliance between the Huns and the Caesars, which caused panic among Emperor Xian of Han, so he summoned several trusted ministers to discuss countermeasures.
However, since there was a big traitor in the court, the Cheng family, no matter how they planned it, the results were not optimistic.
Xu Haifeng originally planned to reveal the affairs of the Cheng family to Fang Lingtian and ask him to make an idea.
This matter is quite a bit serious. Not to mention that there is no real evidence, even if the evidence is conclusive, it cannot be made public easily.
Otherwise, the Cheng family would rebel early. Even if the rebellion could be quelled, the Han Dynasty would be greatly damaged and would no longer be able to resist the joint siege of the two empires.
If the Huns and Caesar had not started, the Han people would fight to the death, and that would be a big fun.
However, since Emperor Xian of Han summoned all the ministers at this time, he didn't know when he would let them go. This sudden major event was not an exaggeration even if it was discussed all night.
Looking up at the sky, the sun had already set, Xu Haifeng sighed, "I can't wait for my adoptive father, I'm going to go to the King of Wu's Mansion to have a banquet."
Fang Yingying shook his big hand and said, "Brother, I'll go with you."
Xu Haifeng laughed and said, "Ying'er, no matter how useless your brother is, he can't take advantage of you. Don't worry, I won't have any trouble."
Fang Yingying thought that he had already mastered the mysterious and unpredictable spiritual power, and no matter what, there was no problem in protecting himself, so she no longer insisted.
Under the leadership of a servant from Fang's mansion, Xu Haifeng came to the Wu Prince's Mansion alone, and he had never brought any of the six first-class masters in the Black Flag Army.
This is not because he is blindly arrogant, but because he is extremely spiritual at this time. If something goes wrong, there is only a sense in the dark. Moreover, with his cultivation, unless a super master of the Grandmaster level takes action personally, who in the world can keep him?
Although the residence of King Wu is located outside the palace, it is not far away, which shows that the fifth prince is deeply favored by Emperor Xian of Han.
The prince’s residence is naturally beautifully decorated and elegant and refined.
As soon as they entered the palace, Zhang Zihua came out to welcome the guests with a smile. The two of them chatted for a while and led by their master to the main hall.
Before Xu Haifeng could sit down firmly, the fifth prince Liu Zhengqi came out of the back wing.
In desperation, Xu Haifeng had to get up and salute. Fortunately, he had been promoted to deputy general and belonged to a senior general. Unless he saw the emperor or the prince, he would not have to kneel down and bow down.
"I will meet His Highness the King of Wu at the end."
Liu Zhengqi quickly stepped forward, held it in his arms, and smiled and said, "General Xu, today you and I don't care about the etiquette of the monarch and ministers, and only talk about the romance of the monarch and the moon. This etiquette is not necessary."
Xu Haifeng secretly admired him. Although he only met him and the eldest prince, his cunning man is far better than the eldest prince. It is no wonder that Fang Lingchen has such a high evaluation of him.
"Thank you so much for your Highness." Xu Haifeng said freely.
Under the leadership of Liu Zhengqi, the three of them sat on a round table together. It can be seen that today's banquet was indeed as Zhang Zihua said, just a family banquet, so there was no separate seats.
"General Xu went to the Huns and defeated the three masters of the two countries and promoted the prestige of the Han Dynasty. Xiao Wang admired this very much. Xiao Wang would like to represent his father to greet you with this first glass of wine." Liu Zhengqi raised his glass and drank it all, saying.
"I dare not, what I do is a trivial matter, and it is not worthy of your highness's boast." Xu Haifeng accompanied him to drink a drink and said humbly.
Liu Zhengqi laughed and said, "I am not arrogant because I am a real hero and a good man. Xiao Wang wishes you another glass." After that, he raised the fine wine that Zhang Zihua poured and drank it in one sip.
Xu Haifeng smiled slightly, raised his glass to drink with him, and said, "Thank you for your praise, I will be ashamed."
Liu Zhengqi put down his wine glass and whispered: "Without having wine but not having fun, wouldn't it be a shame for this beautiful scenery?"
After saying that, he slapped him. Suddenly, a sound of musical instruments came from the back compartment.
Almost at the same time, four maids carried a square wooden box in the middle of the hall.
Liu Zhengqi asked with a smile: "General Xu might as well guess what is hidden in this box?"
Xu Haifeng looked at it and his spiritual sense had already sensed that there was a person hidden in it. He didn't know what Liu Zhengqi meant to do this, so he shook his head and said, "I can't guess it."
Liu Zhengqi laughed and rang a small bell at hand. The melodious bell sounded crisp and loud, echoing in the hall.
The wooden box suddenly cracked in all directions, but fortunately the floor had been wiped spotlessly, so there was no splash of ashes.
The music in my ears became soft and moving, and it was like the sound of acquaintance, making people blush.
The person in the box was actually a half-naked woman wearing a transparent gauze. She danced with the music and performed her best in teasing. A tulle flew up and down with her undulating body, and her snow-white and delicate skin appeared and made people's bloodlines open and their desire was full.
After a dance, the woman looked up and saluted the three of them.
Xu Haifeng then saw her appearance clearly. Although she was not as good as Lin Wanxian and Tang Rouer, she was no longer inferior to Fang Yingying and was considered a stunning beauty in the world.
"This woman's name is Yuna Ito, a beauty from Fusang Ocean. The subordinates in the mansion bought her. Now I will give her the gift to the general." Liu Zhengqi pointed at the woman and said.
Xu Haifeng looked at his cheerful smile and sighed in his heart. There is no advantage in the world that is vain. Since His Highness of the King of Wu has given such a heavy gift, the reward he wants is probably not something he can afford.
"Thank you for your kindness. But I only have a virtuous wife in my family, but this girl is difficult to settle. I would like to ask Your Highness to take it back." Xu Haifeng refused sincerely.
Liu Zhengqi laughed and shook his head, "How can a man be a real man, but he is afraid of his inner self? General Xu is not joking. Since the general is embarrassed, then Xiao Wang will be a good person. Zihua, please arrange it and send this woman to the Black Flag Army camp."
"Yes..." Zhang Zihua responded, stood up, and took the woman away.
When Xu Haifeng saw that he sent Zhang Zihua and this beautiful woman away, he knew that he was about to get to the point, so he no longer stopped him. He just looked at him coldly and watched the changes.
"The Han Dynasty went out to the east for hundreds of miles, and there was an island country called Fusang. The natives on it were also called Kou Ren. Although they were few and weak, they were rich in beauties, which was indeed a strange place." Liu Zhengqi personally filled Xu Haifeng with wine in his glass and said to himself.
"Thank you, Your Highness, the world is so great that there are all kinds of wonders. I finally learned about it for the first time." Xu Haifeng thanked without changing his face.
Seeing that he was unmoved, Liu Zhengqi knew that it would be useless to go around in circles. He was also a wise and decisive person. He immediately said straight to the point: "There are two things that the King of Japan invites you to ask for from the general."
Xu Haifeng asked slowly, "I will be dull, please let Your Highness say it clearly."
