In just a few days, the whole He City was in a state of upheaval. First, there was news that King Zhou had been framed. Then, people sent by Zhao Xue sent out people to frame King Zhou one by one, including many of Zhao Xue's cronies.
.However, Zhao Xue showed no mercy at all. As long as he caught the evidence, he would punish them one by one on the spot.
Hecheng, which was originally heavily guarded, relaxed at this time. The nobles of the Zhou Wang faction were no longer under Zhao Xue's surveillance.
Under Zhao Xue's butcher's knife, many nobles throughout Hecheng were killed one by one. The smell of blood made people in Hecheng panic. But despite this, the people of the Zhou Wang faction were excited. They knew that Zhao Xue was
Killing people and silencing them means that King Zhou is safe. This makes these people very happy. Judging from the past situation, King Zhou can only wait for death. But they did not expect such a turn of events.
A few days after the upheaval in Hecheng, the order of the Three Saint Masters finally came down to clear the name of King Zhou and capture the guilty ministers who framed him. However, Zhao Xue jumped out at this time and personally took Cui Li and others with him.
The heads were reported to the people sent by the Three Saint Masters.
The imperial envoy did not expect that Zhao Xue would find out the truth before the Three Saint Masters. After praising Zhao Xue a few words, he went back with the heads of the guilty officials found by Zhao Xue to report.
After the imperial envoy left, Hecheng returned to calm after the turmoil. Similarly, both Zhao Xue and King Zhou became extremely quiet, and no trace of them was seen.
Three days passed like this, and Xu Feng didn't go anywhere during these three days. He just stayed at Chu Yunhai's mansion. However, Chu Mei'er didn't look good on Xu Feng at Chu Yunhai's mansion. Ever since she scolded Chu Mei'er
He had big breasts and no brain. Chu Meier wanted to bite Xu Feng twice.
When everything returned to calm in Hecheng and Xu Feng was about to leave the Chu Mansion, Chu Meier suddenly threw him an invitation and said to Xu Feng: "Tonight King Zhou will hold a banquet to celebrate his clearing of the charges. Zhou Yang has invited you."
When Xu Feng heard this, he smiled slightly and reached out to take the invitation: "I understand!"
After Chu Mei'er saw that the things were brought, she stopped saying anything to Xu Feng and left Xu Feng's side with a quick step.
…
King Zhou once again returned to be the most noble person in Hecheng, so his banquet was naturally attended by many people. Xu Feng did not go to the party venue with Chu Meier's family, but went there alone. When Xu Feng rushed there, there was a sea of people.
Follow the flow of people and enter the tallest and most spectacular building in Crane City.
Entering it, the dance venue is spacious and magnificent, with splendor and splendor, showing the majesty of the royal family.
However, even such a banquet and dance hall did not seem spacious when the nobles entered one after another.
After arriving at the dance, Xu Feng saw no one he knew, so he casually sat down in a seat in the ballroom. Not long after, Xu Feng also saw some young people sitting next to him. A group of young people sat together and naturally talked loudly.
"The King of Zhou is really ups and downs this time! Tsk tsk, if it weren't for the Inspector of Chu, he would probably have to wait for death this time."
"That's right! It was so dangerous at that time, and almost no one could turn things around. But Inspector Chu did it."
"What is the Inspector of Chu? He only gets half of the credit. The other half of the credit belongs to Ye Si. Otherwise, why do you think King Zhou accepted Ye Si as his adopted daughter today?"
"I heard about it too! Ye Si did a lot to clear King Zhou's name this time! No wonder King Zhou wants to accept him as his adopted daughter!"
"Ye Simei turned all living beings upside down and conquered the country, but she didn't expect that she was so courageous. However, it also paid off. With Ye Si's embarrassing position in the Ye family, she was regarded as a righteous daughter by the king of Zhou. The head of the Ye family wanted to take her away.
She has to be careful about squeezing out of the Ye family."
"Tsk tsk! I haven't seen how stunning that woman is. It looks like I'm going to be in for a treat today!"
Xu Feng was slightly stunned when he heard this, and asked the young man next to him doubtfully: "You said that King Zhou recognized Ye Si as his adopted daughter?"
"Don't you know? This banquet is said to be a celebration for King Zhou to clear his name. But everyone knows that this is the banquet for King Zhou to accept his adopted daughter, and Ye Si is the protagonist of tonight's banquet.
Xu Feng did not expect that this banquet was actually held by King Zhou to adopt his adopted daughter. Xu Feng smiled slightly, but he did not expect such an outcome.
When Xu Feng roped in Ye Si, it was indeed to change Ye Si's situation. Because as long as he rescued King Zhou, Ye Si would definitely have a relationship with King Zhou, and then the head of the Ye family would have to think carefully about dealing with Ye Si. However,
Unexpectedly, King Zhou would recognize Ye Si as his adopted daughter, which was undoubtedly beyond Xu Feng's expectation.
However, the benefits beyond Xu Feng's plan made Xu Feng very happy in his heart, and it was not in vain for him to drag Ye Sijin into this dangerous game.
A group of people began to discuss various things excitedly. When they noticed the top of the hall, there were several banquet tables. The young people looked at the banquet tables with envy and yearning in their hearts.
With a look on his face, a young man said, "I really want to go up and sit on those seats."
"Stop dreaming! The chairman's position can only be occupied by the highest-ranking figures in Crane City. Do you want to sit on it? Wait until you become a marquis or above."
"Hey! I'm just talking. Who really dares to do it? If I really dare, I won't be able to sit on the outside. Tsk, tsk, even if I can't sit there, it's good to sit closer to the chairman."
"..."
After listening to the discussion of these people, Xu Feng realized that these seats cannot be sat randomly. The closer to the chairman's position, the more distinguished it is.
"Earl Li is coming out!" Several teenagers looked at a middle-aged man with a rosy face and exclaimed, their eyes full of envy. Xu Feng looked over and saw a middle-aged man slowly looking at the respectful gaze of everyone.
Slowly walked to the third seat from the chair.
"Earl Li? Li Hexuan?" Xu Feng was stunned, looking at the middle-aged man surrounded by Li Hexuan and Li Wei, thinking that this should be their father.
Seeing Xu Feng sitting there in a daze, several teenagers patted Xu Feng on the shoulder and said, "Brother, don't be envious. You can't be envious of these things. Who told you that you don't have a good father? It would be great if we can come to this dance
Already."
"That's it! Brother! Come on, let's drink. One day we can sit in that seat."
"You sit on it? That will probably lead to the day when heaven and earth will be destroyed. Haha..."
"Why are you laughing? How much better are you? Huh, if any of you can sit on it, I will call you uncle right away."
One sentence made everyone shut up, obviously knowing that this was impossible.
Xu Feng smiled slightly after listening to these people's words. He turned his eyes to the chairman above. Still no one dared to sit on the chairmen at the first two tables.
Xu Feng didn't have much idea about where he was sitting. Anyway, for him, what he wanted to see was how amazing Ye Si would be when he became the princess today.
Not long after, heavyweight nobles arrived one after another. These nobles not only had dandruff, but more importantly, they had real power. For example, the city lords of the three major branches around Hecheng, the controllers of the major districts in Hecheng, and the
There are some big guys who hold a very important position.
Xu Feng was dazzled. When he saw these people and heard the discussions of several teenagers around him, he realized that the forces in Hecheng were complicated and complicated.
After the second table was filled, the hall became quiet. Everyone knew that King Zhou was coming out. So everyone looked towards the luxurious entrance of the hall.
Amid everyone's expectations, several young men came out. Looking at these young men, the people around Xu Feng were full of envy: "Young Master Zhou, the Young Master of the Wang Family, and the Young Master of Xicheng City, it would be great if I could integrate into their circle.
?”
Xu Feng looked at the three young men who were stepping out in front of him, showing off their youthful heroic spirit. Especially when he saw the pace of the leader Zhou Yangcheng, Xu Feng thought to himself that he might have suffered a big blow this time. Compared to not long ago, less
A little greener, a little more mature.
Zhou Yang was dressed in brocade clothes, showing nobility, and walked straight to the chairman without looking away, making countless people envious.
After Zhou Yang came out, several marquises from the empire who were very light-weight also came out. A group of marquises surrounded King Zhou, chatting and laughing happily. King Zhou in the center showed his domineering dignity. The people who saw it were dizzy, and they thought, why
Only then can they reach this point, with so many heavyweights surrounding them, what a sight it is.
Xu Feng looked at the middle-aged man in the center who was high-spirited and full of royal demeanor without turning his eyes away. He thought to himself that this was the most powerful man in Hecheng, King Zhou, who even the elders praised him?
Several teenagers around Xu Feng looked at King Zhou who was sitting in his seat surrounded by everyone, and they all murmured to themselves: "If one day I can be so prosperous, I would be willing to die in one day."
Hearing these words, Xu Feng smiled and looked at Xiao Yilin who was beside King Zhou. He did not expect that Xiao Yilin was taken by King Zhou personally. This treatment was a bit higher than that of Zhou Yang.
Xu Feng looked at the elegant and stunningly beautiful woman next to King Zhou and whispered to Xiao Yilin, thinking that Xiao Yilin might be very popular with Princess Zhou.
Xiao Yilin is wearing a blue dress, which wraps up her small body. She is exquisite and attractive. Coupled with that white and crystal-clear face, she is stunning. Standing next to the mature Princess Zhou, the girl's youth and youthfulness are revealed.
.The maturity of the woman echoes it, making people look at her frequently.
After everyone sat down in the chair, a middle-aged man laughed in a hearty voice: "Your Majesty, call your newly recognized daughter! We are all waiting to see her incomparable beauty."
This sentence immediately caused everyone to start booing and shouting that they wanted to see Ye Si.
King Zhou smiled slightly, waved his hand, and said: "I will postpone the appointment of my adopted daughter for the time being. Before that, I want to propose a toast."
Everyone was stunned, wondering who was so proud that he could actually let King Zhou postpone the adoption of his adopted daughter. However, some people immediately remembered that King Zhou almost died this time, and they all reacted with envious eyes.
