It would be a lie to say he wasn't nervous. Zhang Yi was walking alone in the quiet corridor, surrounded by dense trees on both sides. They were blowing in the breeze, as if there were an ambush hidden there.
It was just a suspicion. Zhang Yi took a closer look and saw that no one was hiding in the dark.
But he didn't dare to relax at all. He clenched his fists and was ready to fight at any time.
After turning a corner, a spacious pavilion suddenly opened up. Zhang Yi was surprised to see a group of fully armed women sitting at a stone table, drinking tea and admiring flowers.
There are six girls in total, about eighteen or nineteen years old, about the same age as Anu and Yue Yaer. They are all wearing exquisite armors and have long swords around their waists. They are all pretty and pretty, and they look like they have practiced martial arts.
.
King Liu Kai's personal bodyguard?
An idea came into Zhang Yi's mind.
The girls all turned their heads and stared at Zhang Yi, looking him up and down from head to toe. Zhang Yi felt embarrassed for a moment and unclenched his clenched fists, lest the girls see that he was defensive.
It was too late, I just heard the girls talking.
"He wants to fight, how about we try his martial arts?"
"Okay, shall we go together or one by one?"
"I can't beat him alone, but if we go together, it will be a bit of a bully."
"Kekeke." "Hahaha."
The girls laughed so heartily that the birds in the garden flew away.
Zhang Yi was very depressed and didn't know where to look. It must be impolite to look at the girls. He thought to himself, these girls who live in the palace are not ordinary people, they are very bold in their jokes. I hope they will not come to provoke, otherwise six
If everyone is beaten to the ground by him, King Liu Kai will definitely be angered.
"What are you laughing at? How can you tease your guests?"
At this time, a person walked quickly across the corridor and said from a distance.
Zhang Yi looked up and recognized and even spoke to him. This middle-aged man had been to Mopan City with General Wang. He was the mysterious important minister Wu Feng.
I saw him wearing an ordinary cloth robe, walking with his hands behind his back, looking calm.
The six girls hurriedly stood up and went to meet him. They laughed and laughed without restraint and pulled him to sit at the stone table and poured him tea.
"Zhang Yi is here," a girl said with a smile. "He is the boss of the five tigers in Mopan City. We sisters want to compete with him. I don't know if we can defeat him."
"He is not as scary as we imagined. He seems to be a well-educated person. So, he is a Confucian general?" another girl commented.
"People should not be judged by their appearance," Wu Feng smiled and nodded, extending his right hand to invite Zhang Yi to come forward and sit down. At the same time, he said to the girls, "Brother Zhang is both civil and military. I think he is a talented person in governing the world, but..."
Wu Feng stopped talking mid-sentence.
Zhang Yi looked around and felt strange. King Liu Kai hadn't come yet. Was he sending his ministers and guards to give him a warning?
"Hello Mr. Wu, hello girls."
Zhang Yi smiled and said hello, and sat down at the stone table. A girl poured him tea. A refreshing fragrance came over him, the smell of jasmine, and he almost fell to the ground drunk.
Those slender white hands were so beautiful. Zhang Yi's heart and soul were filled with excitement. This was a feeling he had never had before. It was just that he didn't look at this girl, which would have been rude.
"You all stand down," Wu Feng said.
The girls covered their mouths and smiled and retreated behind Zhang Yi without leaving. Zhang Yi quickly looked back and saw that the girls had their hands on the hilts of their swords, ready to draw their swords and fight at any time.
This is still to guard against him.
All in all, this meeting seemed particularly strange.
Zhang Yi originally thought that he would be led to the majestic hall, with King Liu Kai sitting high on the throne, surrounded by hundreds of civil and military officials. Then, he would be forced to kneel down, just like meeting the overlord General Cao for the first time.
That way.
Zhang Yi would never kneel down. He even thought of a reason not to kneel down and did not hesitate to get into a quarrel with all the civil and military officials.
However, he was taken into the back garden. Apart from the imperial guards guarding the door, the garden was extremely quiet, with only a group of martial women and Wu Feng.
Everything was a bit inexplicable. Even the resourceful Zhang Yi couldn't figure out what medicine Liu Kai was selling in his gourd.
No, Zhang Yi was shocked. He looked at Wu Feng, who was sitting opposite him, and saw him leisurely picking up the tea cup and taking a sip of tea silently.
His face is calm and steady, and his eyes reveal a weather-beaten maturity. His facial contours are as sharp as a knife, resolute and majestic. At first glance, he is no ordinary person.
Could it be that he is King Liu Kai?
Zhang Yi was surprised. If he was really Liu Kai, it meant that he went to Mopan City to investigate in person and then sent an army of 100,000. This is amazing!
Zhang Yi's heart was filled with turmoil.
…
"There is no wind and waves are three feet long, and there is a thunder on the flat ground." Wu Feng stared at Zhang Yi, feeling a sense of superiority that he had everything under control. Then he sighed slightly, because the subsequent development exceeded his imagination, "You
Seems very surprised, Brother Zhang."
"I am very surprised that King Liu Kai, who is rich in wealth, did not hesitate to pretend to be a follower of General Wang Zheng and go to Mopan City for a visit. If Zhang Yi had known this earlier, he would have entertained him grandly and it would not have been rude!"
After saying that, Zhang Yi stood up, clasped his fists, nodded, and saluted solemnly. He was certain that Wu Feng was Liu Kai. He contained powerful energy and had the majesty of an emperor in his every move. Zhang Yi regretted that he had made a mistake and had not discovered it earlier.
The girls behind him became restless.
"You dare to show your righteousness and dare to call His Majesty by his name!"
"Zhang Yi dares to disobey the king's order, even if he is a general, he is so ambitious!"
"Shall we beat him up?"
Zhang Yi just smiled bitterly when he heard this and didn't look back. He thought these girls were very childish. In Zhang Yi's opinion, they were all pure girls. They just lived deep in the palace and had never suffered anything.
"From now on, no one will say anything!" A girl said, and the girls became quiet. This girl is the one with the scent of jasmine on her body, and is obviously the leader.
…
"These girls!" King Liu Kai shook his head and frowned, "A hundred thousand troops surrounded the city, but Brother Zhang beat them up. Do you want to break your muscles and bones? Brother Zhang, don't pay attention to them, come and sit down."
He admitted that he was Liu Kai, and his original nickname was Northwest Wolf.
Zhang Yi was quite shocked!
Liu Kai rose up in troubled times. He led his troops to defeat the overlord General Cao and established a vast kingdom. He is definitely one of the best heroes!
Zhang Yi slowly sat on the stone bench and looked at Liu Kai in front of him. This man was completely different from what he imagined. His eyes did not have the wildness of a wolf, but he had a wolf-like tenacity and a deep hidden will.
Not exposed.
General Wang said that King Liu Kai had a bad temper and that he had a somewhat fiery personality, but in Zhang Yi's view, he was definitely not a reckless man and was much smarter than his younger brother, General Liu Guangda.
The two of them stared at each other, their eyes colliding in one place. This was a silent confrontation.
Then the atmosphere became tense, and everyone present held their breath.
