After this historic meeting, Lord Changping forcibly snatched Xiang Shaolong from the unwilling hands of Ji Yanran and Qin Qing. When Lord Changping arrived at Prime Minister Zuo's office in the palace, Lord Changwen had already arrived. Looking forward to his arrival.
After closing the door, Chang Wenjun slapped the case and scolded: "Guan Zhongxie, this guy is really hateful. He has fascinated my eldest sister. The prince has informed us through the mouth of Li Changshi, and asked us to control our eldest sister. What should we do about this matter?" Woolen cloth?"
Lord Changping put his arm around Xiang Shaolong's shoulders and said with a smile: "It seems that even Master Qin has fallen in love with you, Shaolong. You haven't got a mere Yingying at your fingertips. Shaolong must be given free rein by us." Evil hands snatched my eldest sister back."
Shanrou's separation, Zhao Ya's death, and the deaths of Xu Xian and Lu Gong had a series of serious blows to Xiang Shaolong. At this time, except for Qin Qing, he was really devoted to women. Ying Ying's willfulness and changeability would have been exciting and interesting if he had just arrived in this era, but since the death of Mrs. Ni and Zhao Ya's betrayal, all he needs is deep feelings. Changping Jun said: "I heard that Lu Niangrong insists on Guan Zhongxie fighting with you again, and will only marry him after winning."
Chang Wenjun said: "Shaolong, why don't you do this favor for our brothers? Otherwise, if Guan Zhongxie plots rebellion in the future, I'm afraid even my eldest sister will not be able to get rid of the relationship. That's not a joke."
Xiang Shaolong smiled bitterly and said, "This kind of thing can't be done by force. What do you want me to do?"
Changping Jun said: "Now we have made it clear that we are going to fight against Lu Buwei. If we don't fight him, we can first defeat Guan Zhongxie's prestige. My eldest sister will never get along with the defeated general. Then everything will be equal." It can be easily solved.”
Xiang Shaolong said calmly: "If you want me to defeat Guan Zhongxie and marry Lu Niangrong, I would rather lose."
Chang Wenjun smiled and said: "Don't worry, even if Lu Buwei is killed, he won't give you his precious daughter. In fact, there is no need to publicly compete with Guan Zhongxie to win. You just need to suppress Guan Zhongxie's arrogance in some aspects and increase Shaolong's With the momentum, the eldest sister should know who is the real powerful person."
Chang Qianjun said in a pleading tone: "The most domineering people in Xianyang now are the people in Zhongfu's house. Everyone dares to be angry and dare not speak out. Shaolong's incidental defeat of their prestige is also a very satisfying thing. In fact, We, this group of people, are all waiting for you to come back and give us a sigh of relief."
Xiang Shaolong tried his best to cheer up, thought for a while and smiled bitterly. He said: "Okay, you can book a banquet for me at Zui Feng House tonight and specify that Shan Meimei and Gui Yan will accompany me to drink, and we will go and make a big fuss." Let’s get back the flying dragon gun I deserve by the way.”
The two were overjoyed and hurriedly arranged everything.
Xiang Shaolong took the opportunity to escape and return home. When he asked about Zhou Liang, he found out that he had gone to find the Eagle King in his heart and had not come back yet. Counting the days, he found that this guy had been gone for half a year. He became worried and asked Zhou Wei to question him. I don’t know. Whether nourished by Wu Guo's love, Zhou Wei was in high spirits and stunningly beautiful. She felt a little embarrassed when she saw Xiang Shaolong.
After Xiang Shaolong asked her to sit down, he asked, "Why has Brother Zhou Liang been gone for so long?"
Zhou Wei said: "In order to find the best falcon, my eldest brother must go to northern Xinjiang. It will take at least four months to go back and forth. It will take time to search and see if there is any luck."
Xiang Shaolong said distressedly: "I'm just about to ask him for help, what should I do?"
Zhou Wei cheered up and said, "Xiao Wei also knows a thing or two about what my brother knows. I wonder what kind of things it is?"
Xiang Shaolong scrutinized her confident expression suspiciously and said, "Do you know how to build a ship? But it's not as simple as building a ship, but...I don't know how to put it this way."
Zhou Wei said happily: "Master, please feel free to tell me. Our Zhou family has been passed down from generation to generation, and both men and women are familiar with watercraft and shipbuilding. Xiao Wei is not much worse than my brother."
This time, it was Xiang Shaolong's turn to be energetic and revealed his plan to make a fake black dragon.
Zhou Wei frowned after hearing this, and said after a while. "If it is controlled by people under the water, it is not difficult. The difficulty lies in how to breathe under the water. If it pops up, wouldn't it be exposed immediately?
."
Xiang Shaolong said, "I have thought about this problem before, but it is not difficult to solve: If the head and face of the dragon driver are completely covered by the dragon body, and only open a breathing hole in the dragon body, and stay away from the shore, any
It would be difficult for anyone to see through it, but the dragon must have good buoyancy and be able to be assembled and dismantled in the water, so it won’t leave any traces.”
Zhou Wei said enthusiastically: "Leave this matter to Xiaowei. Ah, it's great. Xiaowei can finally help the uncle."
Xiang Shaolong said happily: "Wouldn't Wu Guo treat you better?"
Zhou Wei's cheeks were flying, she knelt on the ground and said, "Everything is decided by the uncle."
Xiang Shaolong smiled and said, "That's it, it's time for Wu Guo to get married."
After returning to the inner hall, he told Wu Tingfang about Wu Guo and Zhou Wei. Wu Tingfang happily accepted the order and took on the important task of arranging the marriage of the two.
Xiang Shaolong played with Xiang Baoer for a while, then went to praise Ji Yanran, and then the Tian sisters waited on Yu Baoyi and rushed back to the official office.
At this time, everyone in the cavalry army regarded Xiang Shaolong as a heroic idol and treated him with great respect.
When they arrived at the Office of Health, Jing Jun was nowhere to be seen.
Teng Yi said: "Xiaojun went to find Lu Dan'er. Oh, I almost forgot. Xiaojun asked me to ask you to marry him. It seems that he is very serious now."
Xiang Shaolong said happily: "As long as Lu Dan'er doesn't object, everything should be fine. However, it is best for Wang Ling to propose the marriage, which is more suitable than for me to do it."
Teng Yi said: "Lu Dan'er is crazy about Xiao Jun now, how can there be any problem, but I think it's best for you and Wang Ling to go and tell Lu Dan'er's parents together, that would give the Zunv family face.
"
Xiang Shaolong sat down and nodded in agreement.
Teng Yi said: "I arranged a merit-based arrangement for Zhao Da and the others, and Lord Changping has already approved it. Fortunately, he is the Prime Minister of Zuo, otherwise nothing would have been approved smoothly."
Xiang Shaolong smiled and said: "We have more powerful means to undermine Lu Buwei's authority." Then he told the story about the fake dragon.
Teng Yi praised: "This move is more powerful than Lu Buwei's sword. Ever since Lu Buwei hung up the gate of Jinshi, I was worried that he would openly rebel. This matter should be done sooner rather than later. When do you plan to do it?"
Xiang Shaolong said: "As soon as the black dragon matter is resolved, we can immediately choose a date to carry out it. It seems that the spring festival is the most suitable. Therefore, we must concoct a black dragon within these two months."
Teng Yi said: "It is always not appropriate for the capital guards to be in Guan Zhongxie's hands. It would be best to sweep him down. I heard from Xiaojun that people in Zhongfu's house are becoming more and more domineering and oppress good people from time to time. Guan
Of course they are protected by evil spirits, which makes people angry just thinking about it."
Xiang Shaolong thought of the days when he made trouble and fought in the 21st century, and said with a smile: "Are they tough? We are tougher than them. Are you interested in accompanying me to Zui Feng Chu to cause trouble tonight?"
Teng Yi laughed loudly and said happily: "My hands are itching right now. I've been much more diligent than you in the past six months. I'm just thinking of asking Guan Zhongxie to test the sword, but I'm afraid he will be a coward."
Xiang Shaolong looked at the sky and said, "We will meet at Zuifeng Tower an hour later. Now I want to talk to Meng Ao about my concerns. As long as I can make him have the slightest doubt about Lu Buwei, I will be successful."
After sending his servants away, Meng Ao looked at Xiang Shaolong calmly for a while and sighed, "If Lord Xiang is here to criticize Father Zhong, it's best to avoid it."
After a pause, an apologetic look appeared in his eyes, and he said calmly: "I, Meng Ao, was originally from Qi. When I entered the Qin Dynasty during the reign of King Zhao, I was always squeezed out by the Qin people and suffered a lot of hardships. It was only when my father Zhong took charge that I could stand out. Zhong
It can be said that my father has treated me with great kindness. Even if he was wrong in every possible way, and even if he took the lives of my father and son, I, Meng Ao, would never frown.
If it weren't for Shaolong's sacrifice of his life to protect Wu'er and Tian'er, I would never have let you cross the threshold of my general's mansion today, but it is also the last time."
Xiang Shaolong said in astonishment, "The general already knew about that."
There was sadness in Meng Ao's eyes, and he nodded slowly and said, "That day, I repeatedly asked Wu'er and Tian'er about the attack in the dense forest beside Luoshui. Naturally, I knew there was something hidden in it. However, the matter has passed, and I don't want to do it now.
Please mention it again, Mr. Xiang”
Xiang Shaolong didn't expect that he was so loyal to Lu Buwei. He couldn't help but feel angry, and he stood up and said calmly: "Everyone has his own ambitions. It's difficult for Mr. Xiang to be strong with each other. He only hopes that the general can understand the difference between serving Qin and serving Lu Buwei, so as to avoid
It will cause harm to the descendants and relatives. I say goodbye." After saying this, he strode towards the main entrance.
Meng Ao shouted: "Stay"
Xiang Shaolong stopped and sneered: "The general doesn't want to keep my head, Xiang Shaolong"
Meng Ao stood up and said in a deep voice: "I, Meng Ao, have always been clear about grudges and grudges, and I am not used to the behavior of a despicable villain. Although Father Zhong is passionate about power, in the final analysis, he still wants to save his life. Just look at the people who came to power in the Qin Dynasty in the past,
Who will have a good ending? Father Zhong just had no choice but to do so. If Shaolong is willing to put aside his past grudges, I can make an apology to Father Zhong on behalf of Shaolong..."
Xiang Shaolong shook his head and smiled bitterly, "It's too late. Ever since Princess Qian and others were killed by him, he and I can only use blood to cleanse the blood debt. And he later poisoned the late king and caused others to kill Xiang Xu. He was so angry
The dead Lu Gong has formed a deep feud with the Crown Prince and the Qin Dynasty. Now General Meng can only hope that he can successfully plot to usurp the throne. Otherwise, it will be a catastrophe that will affect the three clans. That’s all.
I have no interest in mentioning this matter again in the future.”
Meng Ao obviously didn't know that Lu Buwei poisoned King Zhuang Xiang and killed Xu Xian, so his expression changed and he asked: "What are you talking about?"
Xiang Shaolong laughed, revealing untold sorrow and indignation, then ignored Meng Ao and strode out of the hall.
The figure suddenly appeared, and the two brothers Meng Tian and Meng Wu jumped out from the left and right, knelt in front of him and said in unison: "Tai Tuo"
Xiang Shaolong said in astonishment: "Are you eavesdropping outside the door?"
Their eyes were red and they nodded angrily.
Xiang Shaolong helped the two of them up and whispered: "Don't let your father know, come to me later." Then he left.
Xiang Shaolong stepped into Zui Feng Tower, and a beautiful middle-aged woman who still retained her charm came up to her surrounded by four maids. She said with a flattering smile: "I am a spring flower in my family, welcome to Master Xiang."
The four maids came up to him, took off his coat, and served him attentively.
Xiang Shaolong said calmly: "Did Mr. Wu die of a sudden illness? Why can't I see him?"
Xiang Shaolong secretly laughed in his heart, knowing that Wu Fu was willing to avoid it, and at the same time knowing that he would definitely inform Lu Buwei and beg him to save his life, he turned to the iron guards and said: "Master Wu is having a treat today, you can go and enjoy yourself under the coat."
Have fun, but don’t eat poisonous food and drinks.”
Jing Shan and others still didn't realize it, cheered in unison, and crowded into the jacket. Chunhua was so tired that she hurriedly sent someone to greet her, and said in fear: "Master Xiang is joking, how can the food and wine be poisonous?"
Xiang Shaolong calmed down and said, "Then we have to ask your Miss Guiyan to find out. Isn't she also ill?"
Chunhua lowered her head and said in a low voice: "Master Guan has arranged for Miss Guiyan to stay with him alone tonight. The slave family has informed the superiors of this matter."
Xiang Shaolong smiled and said, "Did Father Zhong take care of Shan Meimei?"
Chunhua said in panic: "The one who took care of her was Mr. Miao."
Xiang Shaolong was stunned for a moment and snorted coldly: "I will ask them both about this matter, but you'd better tell Master Wu Chu that if I don't see him within half an hour, his
There is no need to open Zuifengju from now on, and today will be his death anniversary next year, huh."
Smiling secretly in his heart, he strode forward.
The beauty of the spring flowers has faded, and they tremble in front to lead the way.
The place for this dinner is the hall on the second floor of the main building of Zuifeng Building. It is also the most luxurious and lively place in Zuifeng Building. It is not like an independent courtyard in the backyard. More than 20 seats are arranged in one hall, which is a bit like Twenty-one
Century restaurant, only much more spacious.
When Xiang Shaolong ascended the stairs, there were more than ten groups of guests sitting around, with their shadows and fragrant clothes, and it was noisy.
There are fires in the four corners of the hall, so you can enjoy the warmth inside.
Seeing Xiang Shaolong coming up, nearly half of the people stood up and saluted him.
Xiang Shaolong glanced around and suddenly realized that Guan Zhongxie and Miao Du were guests. Whether intentionally or not, the two seats were placed on the left and right sides of Lord Chang Ping's seat.
But what made him angry the most was that Ying Ying was sitting at Guan Zhongxie's seat, and Yu Guiyan was standing next to Guan Zhongxie.
Ying Ying obviously did not expect to meet Xiang Shaolong on such an occasion, she lowered her pretty face in bewilderment and did not dare to look at him.
Xiang Shaolong was secretly resentful, knowing that Guan Zhongxie deliberately brought her here to embarrass Chang Pingjun brothers and himself.
Xiang Shaolong laughed, raised his hand to greet everyone, and walked towards his seat. Only then did he see Jing Jun coming and winking at him.
Miao Du left Shuang Meimei beside him, met Xiang Shaolong and said with a smile, "I don't expect to meet Mr. Xiang here."
Xiang Shaolong grabbed his arm affectionately, pulled him to the corner of the fire, and said with a smile: "Let me guess first, Master Miao must have suddenly received an invitation from Shan Meimei and came here to attend the meeting, right?
"
Miao Du said in astonishment: "How could Lord Xiang guess that?"
Xiang Shaolong said easily: "How could you not guess it? Because I came here tonight to bring bad luck to Wu Fu. Shan Meimei and Gui Yan are inseparable, so they naturally need someone to protect them. If Miao and I
The open conflict between the adults has played into the hands of Lu Buwei, who is hiding behind the scenes of Shan Meimei. Do you understand, Mr. Miao?"
After Miao Du was stunned for a while, he gritted his teeth and said: "Meimei, this stinky bitch, dares to play with me. I must make her look good."
Xiang Shaolong patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't be angry, as long as Master Miao understands it, I will see it in Master Miao's face tonight, I won't argue with Shan Meimei for now, sir, drink with all your heart."
When passing Miao Du's table, Shan Meimei lowered her head and didn't dare to look at him from the corner of her eyes.
There were also a few people at the same table who seemed to be staff diners who had just joined Miao Du's camp. Everyone sat surrounded by beautiful women. They were all very respectful when they saw Xiang Shaolong, and the other girls were even more flirtatious towards him.
Xiang Shaolong stopped, greeted everyone one by one, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for half a year, it turns out Meimei has forgotten me."
Miao Du had a look of displeasure on his face at this time, and sat back down next to Shan Meimei on the floor, saying coldly: "Meimei is just not good at this, and has a terrible memory, so no matter what good things she has done to her, she forgets them in the blink of an eye.
"
After talking like this, Xiang Shaolong immediately understood the reason for Miao Du's displeasure; the main reason was that Shan Meimei hid her friendship with Lu Buwei from him.
Shan Meimei's delicate body trembled slightly, she raised her pretty face, glanced at Xiang Shaolong in panic and said: "Master Xiang has a lot, don't argue with a little girl like me, Meimei is really grateful."
Although Xiang Shaolong knew that she was acting, he still found it difficult to bully her openly. He smiled smartly and walked to the table next door.
Guan Zhong Xiehuo stood up and said with a smile: "How can Mr. Xiang favor one over the other and not come to our place for a walk and a few words?"
Xiang Shaolong glanced at his seat. In addition to Ying Ying, Gui Yan and the girl serving the wine, there were also Jing Jun's defeated general Zhou Zihuan, Lu Can and two unfamiliar swordsmen, who should be Lu Buwei.
New blood recruited over the past six months.
Just looking at their calm attitude and sturdy figure, you can tell that they are masters.
Ying Ying's head lowered even lower, but Gui Yan smiled charmingly, not looking like she had ever done anything vicious to him.
Xiang Shaolong, Teng Yi and others exchanged glances and came to where Guan Zhongxie was sitting.
All the men stood up and saluted him.
Guan Zhong smiled evilly and said: "Let me introduce three famous swordsmen from various places for Lord Xiang. This is Xu Shang. Shangcai from Chu State is known as the best swordsman in the local area."
Shangcai is a military stronghold in the northwest of the Chu Kingdom. It is not easy to dominate in such a place. Xiang Shaolong couldn't help but take a look at the handsome young swordsman who was born in 20 years ago.
Xu Shang cupped his fists and said, "Commander Xiang has been well-known for his reputation for a long time. If you have the opportunity, I must ask him to give you some advice."
Another short, stocky man, full of murderous aura, saluted with a loud voice like a bell: "I, Lian Jiao, am a native of Wei."
Xiang Shaolong said calmly: "That's Master Guan's fellow countryman."
Lian Jiao's eyes flashed with Senhan's murderous intent, and he said coldly: "Lian Jin is my brother."
Guan Zhongxie interjected: "Master Xiang, please do not misunderstand. Although Lian Jiao is a brother of the Lian Jin clan, he only has respect for Master Xiang after he defeated Lian Jin."
Xiang Shaolong's eyes flashed coldly, he glanced at Lian Jiao but said nothing.
The tall and thin man who looked like an ape was left. He was the calmest among the three. He said coldly: "I am Zhao Pu. I am originally from Qi. I used to be an errand under Lord Xinling of Wei State; that is Xiang.
It’s up to you, sir, after you arrive in Daliang.”
Gui Yan smiled and said: "Master Xiang, why don't you sit down and talk again? So that Gui Yan can have the honor of toasting to you."
Xiang Shaolong laughed and said, "Miss Guiyan is joking. The so-called never forgetting the past is the master of the future. How dare I make mistakes?"
Turning to Guan Zhongxie, he said: "Master Guan is really good at timing. As soon as he knew that I was going to visit Zui Feng Tower tonight, he immediately booked Miss Gui Yan. However, it would be best for my brother Guan to return home with beauty and hide it in his private room.
Then I really can’t compete with you.”
With Guan Zhongxie's depth and Gui Yan's acting skills, he couldn't help but change his expression when he heard Xiang Shaolong's threatening words.
Only then did Yingying become aware of the smell of gunpowder between Xiang Shaolong and Guan Zhongxie, and her delicate body trembled, and she raised her pretty face to look at Xiang Shaolong.
Xiang Shaolong laughed and said, "Hello, Miss Ying."
Yingying's beautiful eyes showed panic, her shoulders trembled slightly, but she was speechless.
Xiang Shaolong was not interested in talking to her, so he smiled evilly at Guan Zhong and said, "Why don't you see Miss Niang Rong accompanying Brother Guan? I haven't had a chance to say hello to Third Miss since I came back, so I can only ask Brother Guan to do it for me."
After laughing loudly and ignoring Yingying, Guan Zhongxie and Gui Yan's expressions turned ugly and they returned to Changping Jun's table.
