Chapter 359: The Real Hongmen Banquet
Gu Mingsheng pursed his thin lips and thought for a moment before he said seriously: "Since we have come to the Kingdom of Beicang, we naturally cannot return in a defeat."
"I understand this, too."
Shen Qingfei knew that they were determined to go on this trip, but he did not expect that Ran Yichen would be so decisive, and there was no room for negotiation.
"The night banquet in three days should be a banquet without a good banquet."
In fact, many people in the capital have begun to set up a backup plan. As for the future prosperity and honor and disgrace, it depends on this night banquet. I don’t know how many people will live after this time. The outcome is really unpredictable.
"He didn't say let us leave, which shows that our safety will not be a problem. Now we can do it just to leave as much as possible."
In fact, Shen Qingci's attitude just now seems to have explained many problems. No matter who the winner of this contest is, they all need the existence of their messengers - because he said when he left: The Ministry of Revenue is empty.
If the Ministry of Revenue in Kitakang Country is really empty, then there will be no strength to start a war. Peace talks may be something that will inevitably happen. They only need to do their duty at this time.
But both of them were quite surprised, and they didn't understand why this man must have concluded that Prince Chen would have the intention of admonishing the army?
The masked man looked at the letters on several tables and asked the person opposite: "Have you sent any news yet?"
"No."
Yesterday, the man sent a letter to the Chen Prince's Mansion very frequently. He originally thought he would send some useful news today, but he didn't expect that the person would lose his shadow.
"It might have happened to him."
It was an hour later than the previous time, and it can be seen that some uncontrollable things must have happened during this period. He did not expect that the confidants who had entered the Chen Palace for so long were actually eliminated.
"Is there any news on Hongxiu?"
"Although King Chen usually lingers in the area of the brothel and Chu Pavilion, he also has a bit of mutual appreciation for Hongxiu, he has never outspoken and Hongxiu failed."
Originally, he wanted to use the beauty trick, but Ran Yichen did not have the time to find flowers and willows during this period? The reason why Hongxiu was able to approach him was because of the relationship between the two of them in their early years, otherwise it might have aroused his suspicion.
"I don't know if the news about Concubine Yan's side is accurate. Is the emperor really going to do it in three days?"
The man was a little excited when he said this. If these people joined forces to kill King Chen, the danger in Jizhou would be lifted, and it would be impossible to recover the companion after accumulating for a few years.
"Since the emperor has thought, this matter should not be too outrageous and we will also send our people in." The masked man pondered for a moment, and then told the follow-up matters. Since he was an allies, he naturally had to give a corresponding attitude. "If the matter is exposed, try to send Concubine Yan and his son away as much as possible."
"...We are not equipped with enough staff, but we need to pay tribute to the two envoys..."
"No, there is no need to involve them in our affairs, otherwise the mess will be embarrassing if we fail."
The masked man sighed lightly, and the man opposite responded. Although he had few people, he was all good at it. And they were just auxiliary. After all, the person who actually took action was the emperor's.
The emperor sitting at the peak of power in Beicang Kingdom, he looked a little lonely in the face of the gloomy night sky. The inner prisoner on the side looked from afar and did not dare to say much. Only when he asked questions would the favored eunuch beside him responded tremblingly.
"The blooming flowers in this world have made people's desire to gain."
Everyone dared not agree with the emperor's muttering voice. After all, it is particularly important to serve the emperor in front of the emperor to be reliable.
"It's late at night."
He said as he walked quickly from the courtyard and headed towards his bedroom, feeling unprecedented peace.
The most threatening of the imperial power struggle is the crown prince, and the loneliest one is the emperor. Some people may feel sad, but aren’t this all his choice? So, even if he is lonely, he just sneered in his heart and complained about himself, and never made such a statement to his mouth.
He never regretted it, nor would he regret it!
The news that the emperor invited the imperial court officials and envoys of the Great Zhou in Fengzao Palace caused a great sensation in the capital of Beicang Kingdom, and people from all sides also gathered towards Fengzao Palace, but few people knew about it.
In the evening of that day, Shen Qingci and Gu Jinshu watched everyone disappear in front of the palace gate, and the two of them headed towards the largest restaurant. Until they sat down, Gu Jinshu smiled and said, "Are you planning to not return without getting drunk?"
"yes."
This area is the bustling area closest to the palace gate. Most officials in the Kitakura Kingdom will pass by this street after going to court, so the two of them chose their destination tonight, with the private room facing the street, which can be said to be quite convenient.
"You are here this time, I'm afraid there is something else!"
Although it will be a matter of time before King Chen and the East Palace have a quarrel, the person in front of him should not have expected it to be so soon. After all, his face has not been very good these days.
"Of course there are other things, but are you willing to listen?"
He held his cheeks with his hands and stared at Gu Jinshu, and Gu Jinshu looked a little flinched when she looked at him seriously. Some things should not be known to her. After all, this person has never been a person who suffers a loss.
——I got the news from him now, and I might have to pay a price of equality in a while, but she didn't dare.
Looking at her admitting appearance, Shen Qingci grinned sarcastically. This person never thought about entering him in his past and present life, otherwise he would not have looked so nervous. Is he even more terrifying than the murderer?
At this time, the palace was laughing and drinking, and even the talented man who had made the list had to leave a good impression in front of many noble girls, so he could not avoid a fight with the wine. The people who were a little confused seemed to realize that something was wrong today.
Ran Yichen kept staring at the wine glass in his hand, and never raised his head from beginning to end. Even when he was kneeling down to the emperor just now, he did not raise his head, as if he had already started wandering around in the void.
"Beicang Kingdom has strong soldiers and horses. At that time, all the iron hooves were trampled on the territory of Beicang Kingdom. However, if the Beicang Kingdom has it now, I have to thank someone, that is my King Chen."
The emperor said this very sincerely, even King Chen's eyelids drooped a little, and the emperor who was on the head continued, "So, I want to raise my glass with everyone and drink this glass of wine with King Chen."
When he said that, he poured wine himself, and then asked the eunuch to give him a glass to King Chen. The deep touch of King Chen's eyes was deeply covered, and he saw him take the wine glass: "Since it was the reward of the father, the son minister naturally dared not refuse."
