Time flies, and half a month has passed in a blink of an eye.

During this period, Wu Liang has been working at night shifts.

Perhaps it was because of the butterfly effect brought by Wu Liang that Fan Xian's reputation plummeted, which caused the eldest princess to relax a lot. Therefore, Lin Gong did not join forces with the Northern Qi spies and asked Cheng Jushu to ambush Fan Xian on Niulan Street.

For Fan Xian, except for the fact that some people would throw rotten eggs and vegetable leaves when they went out, his life was quite calm and there were no big setbacks.

However, several major events have happened in Kyoto recently.

For example, Chen Pingping led the black cavalry back to Beijing.

There is also the battle between Nanqing and Northern Qi, where Qing Kingdom won a great victory and occupied a city in Northern Qi.

Later, Northern Qi and Dongyicheng sent missions to Nanqing at the same time.

Dongyi City is here to watch the fun, while Northern Qi is here to discuss peace.

During the delegation meeting between the two sides, Fan Xian made an exception and won a small official position because he was favored by Emperor Qing and participated in the negotiations.

In fact, Emperor Qing was paving the way for Fan Xian, referred to as gilding.

During the negotiations, Nanqing made the Northern Qi mission deeply understand what the "power of a great power" is.

Originally everything was developing in the direction of Nanqing's good fortune, but the bad thing was that Yan Bingyun, the leader of the intelligence in Northern Qi, was arrested.

Now the Northern Qi mission has issued conditions, using Sean as a means of Bingyun, and at the same time put forward some excessive conditions.

After a while of negotiation, the two sides did not agree to those excessive conditions, but Sean agreed to the other words.

In fact, Emperor Qing and Chen Pingping have been waiting for this moment, just to let Fan Xian approach Sean naturally and get out of the temple's secret. So he agreed to this condition with the flow and prepared to hold a night banquet in the Hall of Prayer for the Year tomorrow night, and invite the delegations from Northern Qi and Dongyi City to attend the banquet together.

Because Fan Xian was hired by Emperor Qing, he became the deputy envoy to receive the Northern Qi mission and also attended the banquet together.

Fan Xian didn't care about the Northern Qi mission and Yan Bingyun.

What he is thinking about now is how to get the key to keep his mother Ye Qingmei to open the box.

Because the night before yesterday, Wu Zhu, who was elusive, found Fan Xian and claimed that he had thought of something and felt that the key was probably hidden in the harem.

The two discussed and planned to start after the night banquet tomorrow.

But he didn't know that Wu Liang had already obtained the key first, and the palace was banned and the news was blocked yet, so Fan Xian and Wu Zhu didn't know about this and were destined to have a trip in vain.

At the same time, Wu Liang heard about the night banquet in the Hall of Prayer for Youth, and secretly gave the eldest princess a big gift that day.

...

The night came quietly, and the night banquet was held as promised.

Wu Liang was on night shift today. Because Hong Sixiang had been missing for a long time, his job of protecting his car outside the hall fell on him.

Among the officials, Wu Liangfa made Fan Xian, but did not say hello.

On the other side.

Fan Xian entered the Hall of Prayer for Youth. Emperor Qing had not arrived yet. He only saw the eldest princess sitting in the upper left position, and the prince and the second prince were sitting opposite him.

What is empty in the middle is Emperor Qing’s dragon throne.

There is another empty space next to Li Yunrui, which should be kept for people.

This time, Emperor Qing mainly invited officials from the Honglu Temple and the Ministry of Rites, and the Northern Qi and Dongyi City missions were all foils.

This was the first time Fan Xian came to such a formal occasion and was a little uncomfortable. Suddenly, a figure stood in front of Fan Xian: "You thief, do you still have the face to see me again?"

Fan Xian was startled by Guo Baokun who suddenly appeared: "Who are you?"

Guo Baokun was furious when he heard this: "It's outrageous. He hurt someone on the same day. You pretended not to know me!"

"So it's Mr. Guo. Long time no see. Look, your injury is almost gone. It's so good." Fan Xian reacted and spoke with a smile, as if he wasn't the one who beat Guo Baokun seriously injuring him.

Seeing that the other party had no regrets, Guo Baokun said angrily: "You actually forgot me!"

"Be careful when you speak, you are like a resentful woman."

Fan Xian set aside for a while, and then asked Guo Baokun: "You are not from the Honglu Temple and the Ministry of Rites, why are you here?"

"I am a editor in the palace and my father, Minister of Rites, why can't I come?" Guo Baokun looked at Fan Xian fiercely. His injuries were almost healed at this time, but when he recalled the crime he suffered during this period, he couldn't help but grit his teeth.

Originally, Guo Baokun wanted to say something, but his father Guo Youzhi came over and scolded, "I don't know what occasion this is. Go back and sit down!"

"Yes, my father."

Guo Baokun glanced at Fan Xian and walked to his seat to sit down.

Guo Youzhi looked at Fan Xian with a gloomy face: "The dog son is ruthless, please forgive me if you want to be a little Mr. Fan."

After saying that, he walked to Guo Baokun and sat down.

His own child is in love with him, and Guo Youzhi has no good feelings for Fan Xian, who beat his son to seriously injured.

As time passed, officials from the Honglu Temple and the Ministry of Rites took their place one after another.

Fan Xian sat together with Xin Qiwu, who had worked together before, and chatted in a low voice.

Soon, an old man took the book boy to the hall.

The old man had a unique aura of a literati. His steps were not fast, but he was very steady. He was Zhuang Mohan, Wenzong of Northern Qi.

Behind me is a book about fourteen years old, with red lips and white teeth, and a bookcase behind me, looking weak.

Seeing this, the officials all stood up and saluted Zhuang Mohan to show their respect.

Zhuang Mohan sat down, and the book boy put down the book box and walked out of the hall.

Shortly after Shutong left, the eunuch's servant shouted, "Your Majesty is here."

"Long live my emperor."

The officials stood up to worship.

Inquiry Institute.

Chen Pingping, who was sitting in a wheelchair, looked at Shu Jian and asked Zhu Ge in a place: "Have you checked the palace maids, eunuchs and guards who are on duty today?"

Zhu Ge replied: "All of them have been investigated, and everyone has innocent family backgrounds and no suspicious people."

"Are there anyone who enters the palace who has a strange behavior?"

"Yes, Fan Xian, went to the Imperial Guard to report that when he arrived at the Hall of Prayer for Rebirth, he carried a short blade and poison on his body."

"Where is Zhuang Mohan?" Chen Pingping asked again.

Zhu Ge replied: "Zhuang Mohan brought a book boy, and in addition to that, it was a roll of old paper and books. We checked it and there was no weapon. The book boy next to him had already left the hall. Zhuang Mohan was not a martial arts practitioner, so he should not cause any major trouble."

"Yun Zhilan went to the palace with his sword?" Chen Pingping asked.

Zhu Keyan said: "Yes, but Yun Zhilan is a disciple of Sigujian and should have nothing to do with Zhuang Mohan."

Chen Pingping asked again: "If Yun Zhilan takes out his sword to kill the lord, who will stop him?"

Zhu Ge replied: "Yan Xiaoyi, Commander Yan is outside the hall."

"Yan Xiaoyi! It's not enough to get a ninth-grade archer. Let the shadow go too!" Chen Pingping was a little worried.
