When they arrived at Magnolia Tower, Zhongsun Long and his son were already at Gonghou, and they were very affectionate. Of course, they were completely different from before.
The venue and style of the banquet this time were also very different. Zhongsun Long booked the most gorgeous courtyard, and eight beauties, including Lan Gongyuan, entertained it personally, and Mrs. Lan was indispensable to take care of it.
When Lan Gongyuan saw Xiang Shaolong who had returned to his original appearance, she came up to him, took him to the banquet and sat down, and whispered in his ear: "I stabbed you last time, so why was there nothing wrong with you?
?”
Xiang Shaolong secretly screamed, with just such an understatement, he easily turned the hatred between the two into a childish play between a man and a woman, and said with a smile: "Why did Miss Yuan obey Tian Dan? Is it because of Qi Yu?"
Lan Gongyuan said calmly: "As a native of Qi, Yuanyuan must do her best for our great Qi. However, she admires the general Nujia very much."
At this time, Zhongsun Xuanhua laughed and said: "Yuanyuan is in love tonight and only talks intimately with the general. Should I be punished with a drink?"
Lan Gongyuan kissed Xiang Shaolong's cheek gently, and then cast a flirtatious glance at Xie Ziyuan, who was having a heated exchange with another beautiful girl, and said with a smile like a flower: "There is another person who fell in love with someone else, and he will be punished."
It’s time to understand the master, not the concubine.”
Xie Ziyuan raised his glass and said with a smile: "You deserve to be punished. But Yuanyuan also deserves to be punished, and she must replace the wine with music, ha."
Xiang Shaolong was amused in his heart. When Xie Ziyuanfu entered the brothel, he was immediately in high spirits, as if he had changed into a different person. But as long as you see that he has no nostalgia for a super beauty like Lan Gongyuan, you can tell that he is just enjoying the occasion.
I won't really indulge in wine and sex.
Regarding the three famous beauties, Lan Gongyuan couldn't make him daydream at all. The reason may be that he was deeply wary of her ruthless methods. After all, a large number of her group members had died because of her. If she didn't have any intentions,
Resentment is a strange thing.
Although Feng Fei was highly attractive to him, she deceived him many times and even poisoned him to kill him, which made him feel weak.
On the contrary, Shi Sufang, a beautiful woman with a special style and difficult to get along with, aroused him a little admiration.
Amid laughter, everyone toasted and drank.
Zhong Sunlong was sitting at the table opposite Xiang Shaolong, hugging him from left to right. After raising a toast to Xiang Shaolong, he asked curiously: "Why is the second prince so late?"
Of course, no one could answer this question, so Xie Ziyuan suggested: "Why don't you send someone to check it out?"
Zhongsun Xuanhua immediately ordered someone to handle the matter, and then said to Xiang Shaolong: "I heard from Mr. Jie that Junior Sister Rou will come to the General tomorrow to try the sword. If the General doesn't mind, can Xuanhua accompany me to meet the General?
of majesty.”
Xiang Shaolong secretly blamed Jie Ziyuan for talking too much. He wanted to refuse, so he had no choice but to say: "I'm afraid it's a small skill that won't be able to stand in the eyes of Brother Xuanhua."
Zhongsunlong laughed and said: "The general is too humble."
Xiang Shaolong knew in his heart that Zhongsun Xuanhua's unkind invitation was to test his own strength and see if he could save his life under Naishi's sword. If they were unable to do so, they would have to find other ways to avoid themselves.
When someone dies, all their plans will be in vain.
Lan Gongyuan leaned into his ear again and said, "Has the General seen Duke Cao?"
Of course Xiang Shaolong would not tell her the truth and shook his head. Just when he was about to speak, three people strode in. One of them was Lan Gongyuan’s face Qi Yu, and the other two were about the same age. They were dressed as warriors and
Scribe attire.
The warrior was tall and sturdy in appearance, with thick shoulders and a thick neck, a pockmarked face, eyes like copper bells, and a lion's nose. He was quite ugly, but very masculine.
The man dressed as a scholar was tall, thin and smart, and he looked very much like Tian Dan. Xiang Shaolong easily guessed that he was Tian Dan's son, Tian Bang, and was shocked.
This didn't seem like the occasion he should have come to.
Zhongsun Long and others were also stunned for a while, not knowing how to deal with it.
All the girls have already knelt down and worshiped.
Tian Bang took the lead and stood with his hands raised in salute. He smiled at Xiang Shaolong and said, "Tian Bang heard that the general is here, so he came to kiss him. I hope the general will not blame me for being rude."
Xiang Shaolong stood up to return the salute, and when his eyes fell on Qi Yu's face, a deep hatred flashed across the boy's eyes, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Brother Xiang, you are well. I heard that Mrs. Ya died in Xianyang. This matter is indeed...
It’s a pity.”
Xiang Shaolong knew clearly that he was mentioning Mrs. Ya on purpose to arouse his old hatred of being robbed of his love, but he still couldn't help but twitch in his heart, forced a smile, and didn't answer him.
The warrior's attitude was even more arrogant. He cupped his fists and said, "I, Ma Chengjia, have always been fascinated by the general's swordsmanship. I wonder if I can learn his unique skills before the battle between the general and Cao Gong?"
Zhong Sunlong and his son Xie Ziyuan changed their minds at the same time. Ma Chengjia challenged Xiang Shaolong so openly. Not only did he not give them face, but he also made it clear that Xiang Shaolong would definitely die at the hands of Cao Qiudao, so he had to fight for the opportunity now.
.I just regret that in this situation, it is really difficult for them to interrupt.
Zhongsun Xuanhua himself was not a good man and believed in women. He secretly thought that as long as Xiang Shaolong politely refused, he would immediately fight against Chengjia and kill him. Zhongsun Long thought that even if Tian Dan protected him, he would still find someone to interrupt him.
Two dog legs.
There was a tense atmosphere in the courtyard for a moment.
When he was in the 21st century, Xiang Shaolong loved to stir up fights, but now that he was "older", he had restrained his anger, and felt that fighting was meaningless, so he was unwilling to fight with others, but he was definitely not
People who are afraid of trouble.
Now seeing Tian Bang, Qi Yu and Ma Chengjia, the famous swordsman of Qi State, looking like they were trying to bully him, they couldn't help but get angry, but they tried their best to suppress Liu, and said with a faint smile: "Since Brother Ma is so interested, Mr. Xiang
There is nothing wrong with playing with you, but now is not the right time, why not..."
Qi Yu rushed to intercept him and said: "Brother Xiang, if you are waiting for the second prince, there is no need to waste your energy. Father Zhong and Mr. Han just went to see the second prince, and they are afraid that the second prince will not be able to find time to come."
Zhong Sunlong and others all changed their expressions. Doesn't this mean that Tian Jian has clearly surrendered to Tian Dan and Lu Buwei? Only Xiang Shaolong deduced thoroughly enough to understand that Tian Jian was afraid that he would die at the hands of Cao Qiudao, which would make his
The bet was wrong, so he temporarily adopted a wait-and-see attitude and refused to attend to avoid suspicion. At this moment, Lu Buwei and Han Jie were speaking loudly and tried their best to incite him.
Ma Chengjia chuckled and said: "If that's the case, then please ask the general to draw your sword immediately and let me, Ma Chengjia, teach you how to be smart."
Xiang Shaolong was already sulking because he was betrayed by Han Chuang, Lord Long Yang and others. He also saw that Tian Jian was as snobbish as a wall grass swinging in the wind. Now he was deliberately provoked by Ma Chengjia, who didn't know the heights of the world. He was so angry that he was filled with anger.
, suddenly took off his outer robe, revealing a body that was even stronger than Ma Chengjia, and shouted: "Since we are under constant pressure, let's take action."
Everyone was surprised that he was so brave and would take action right away.
All the girls looked at his outstanding figure with broad shoulders, broad chest, thin waist and long legs, coupled with his stern and high-spirited demeanor. They all looked intoxicated, even Lan Gongyuan was no exception.
Xiang Shaolong now held the hilt of the Baizhan Knife in his hand and strode out of the field, creating an intimidating force.
Tian Bang and Qi Yu were both a little panicked and hurriedly backed away, which only added to the power of his dragon coming out of the hole.
Ma Chengjia also didn't expect that he would take action immediately. At this time, he felt the brunt of Xiang Shaolong's threat.
But he couldn't ask the other party to pause for a moment, so he snorted coldly and subconsciously stepped back to get into position.
Xiang Shaolong has so much experience in actual combat that he knows how to inadvertently create a head start, so he is willing to give Ma Chengjia a chance to breathe. Seeing him retreat, he laughs to the sky, with a "clang" sound, he pulls out the treasured sword of hundreds of battles and holds his ground. The other party forced him to leave.
As soon as the sword was taken off its sheath, a cold air seeped into the hall, making people feel cold.
At this moment, Ma Chengjia began to remember that the opponent was not using the long sword he was used to dealing with, and he couldn't help but feel even more timid. He took two steps back to see clearly the direction of his opponent's weapon.
Xiang Shaolong would let this opportunity pass and continue to move forward with a steady pace. He raised the Baizhan Sword to his head and held the handle of the sword with his left hand at the same time. He yelled: "Draw the sword!"
Ma Chengjia immediately felt as if he was facing thousands of troops and horses, and hurriedly drew his sword in response.
Xiang Shaolong stepped forward with an arrow, and the Baizhan Blade, which had reached the highest point above, turned into a cold light, and struck at the head of Ma Chengjia, who had lost his momentum and was unable to advance or retreat, like a lightning strike with all his strength.
If Ma Chengjia was smart, the only solution at this time was to retreat further, or even run out of the door, and then fight in the open space between the courtyards, so that he could avoid this earth-shattering sword.
However, as a challenger, he had spoken so eloquently just now. Now, in full view of everyone, Naken shivered as soon as the first sword was used, gritted his gums, and swung his sword across the board.
When Xiang Shaolong saw the opponent hastily parrying and using one hand, he secretly laughed in his heart and struck with all his strength.
With a "clang" sound, Ma Chengjia's long sword was cut off. When everyone exclaimed in surprise, Xiang Shaolong stepped back and returned the sword to its sheath.
Ma Chengjia's face was uglier than that of a dead man. He was holding a broken sword and stood dumbfounded in the field. There was a bloodstain from his edge to the center of his eyebrows. The blood was dripping down. It was extremely terrifying.
Everyone knew that Xiang Shaolong was showing mercy, but they were even more shocked by the size and precision of Xiang Shaolong's sword skills.
Who would have guessed that Ma Chengjia, who was famous in Linzi, could be completely defeated with just one blow? Even Cao Qiudao would be hard-pressed to do it.
Xiang Shaolong secretly called it a fluke. If he had used Blood Wave, he would have had to spend a lot of effort to deal with this guy.
For a moment, the place was completely silent.
Ma Chengjia suddenly let out a strange cry, dropped his broken sword, and ran away in shame.
Zhongsun Xuanhua stood up, raised his glass and sighed: "No wonder the general is so famous in Xianyang. Even my master is tempted to compete with you. Such sword skills are rare in the world."
Tian Bang and Qi Yu's faces were still pale, staring at Xiang Shaolong in disbelief, speechless, neither staying nor retreating, it was extremely embarrassing.
Xiang Shaolong scanned the crowd and saw that everyone was still in shock. Knowing that he had established his power by chance, he smiled slightly and said: "Since the second prince is not coming, why don't we go home and sleep early?"
As soon as he crossed the threshold, he summoned Feng Fei.
In the small hall on the upper floor of the main building, this outstanding beauty was facing Qin Dai. When she saw him coming, she came back to her senses, pulled him to a corner and sat down, and said quietly: "Han Jie came to see this person and said all kinds of good things.
However, I am so disheartened that I can't listen to him. It's really strange. Before, whenever I thought of him, I felt sweet in my heart. Now I only think of his handsome appearance. Why has my opinion of him changed so much?
Woolen cloth?"
Xiang Shaolong was secretly frightened, hoping that Feng Fei would not fall in love with him, so he asked, "What are the plans for the eldest lady?"
Feng Fei's beautiful eyes showed a sad look, but her tone was surprisingly calm, and she said softly: "Now I just want to live a peaceful life in peace. Can the general make arrangements for me?"
Xiang Shaolong breathed a sigh of relief and said: "As long as you have dealt with Cao Qiudao, I will take you back to Xianyang immediately. I will protect you there, so there is nothing to worry about."
Feng Fei said in surprise: "I know your swordsmanship is superb, but in the hearts of the people of Qi, Cao Qiudao is already a god and not a mortal, so why can you still be so confident? Cao Qiudao's sword is never merciful. If you have any shortcomings,
How...how...Oh, Feng Fei doesn't want to live anymore."
Xiang Shaolong didn't misunderstand what she meant. He understood that her unwillingness to live meant losing her support, so it would be better to commit suicide.
Of course he would not tell everyone about the "Ten Moves Agreement" and said with a smile: "Cao Qiudao is just a mortal, but his sword skills are more powerful than anyone else. I am not trying to pretend to be a hero. If I don't have the confidence to save my life,
, I will run away with you tonight."
Feng Fei said with half belief and doubt: "Don't be overconfident. Qi people's description may be exaggerated, but it is an indisputable fact that Cao Qiudao swept through the six southeastern countries."
His eyes fell on his Hundred Battles Sword, and he said softly: "Han Jie was afraid that people would have empathy for you, so he said a lot of bad things about you, which made me despise him even more."
Xiang Shaolong had long expected that Han Jie would be like this, and said without hesitation: "Who can make everyone in the world happy? I can only laugh and scold you. Hey, the eldest lady seems to be very interested in this little brother's knife?"
Feng Fei was so amused by him that she smiled, raised her face and kissed his cheeks, saying sweetly: "The ones who are interested in this treasure of yours are Cao Qiudao and the swordsmen of Qi. I am only interested in you."
What fun is there in fighting and killing each other? It’s just you men who enjoy it so much that we, weak women, are all implicated in it. Before Han Jie left, he said that you might lose your life if you go to see Cao Qiudao, but Feng Fei was not frightened by him."
Xiang Shaolong smiled and said, "Have you heard of Ma Chengjia?"
Feng Fei said with a bit of disdain: "Not only did I understand, but I also met him in Tian Dan's Prime Minister's Mansion. Apart from Zhongsun Xuanhua and Dan Chu, when it comes to swordsmanship, it's him and Min Yanzhang."
Xuan Ze frowned and said, "Why are you mentioning him? This man is quite disgusting, has an arrogant attitude, and looks arrogant. He also thinks that he is very popular with women. I feel sick just seeing his appearance."
Xiang Shaolong smiled and said: "It turns out that your likes and dislikes of men are so strong. If I don't meet him, I'm afraid you won't be able to see him for a while. He just came to provoke me. I gave him a knife and left an indelible memory on his face.
"
Feng Fei lost her voice and said: "Just one knife?"
Xiang Shaolong said calmly: "I'm exaggerating a little, I even walked a few steps."
Feng Fei fell into his arms and said with a sweet smile: "People hate you for being so proud and hateful, but you just don't care about them."
Xiang Shaolong said calmly: "I am terribly tempted. Who can not be tempted by you? It's just that the emotional burden is too heavy. I have three good wives in my family, so I really don't dare to show my affection to others."
Feng Fei said quietly: "You have already understood that both Mrs. Ya and Princess Qian have dealt a huge blow to you, right?"
Xiang Shaolong was surprised: "How did you know?"
Feng Fei said: "Of course someone told me."
The figure of the delicate lady appeared in Xiang Shaolong's heart. Could it be that she told Feng Fei? If so, then this beauty's heart is not as indifferent to him as she looks on the outside.
Feng Fei stretched out her slender hand, caressed his cheek, and said lovingly: "The general is tired, why don't you stay at Feng Fei's place tonight?"
Just as Xiang Shaolong was about to answer, there was a sound of footsteps on the stairs, which frightened the two of them and they quickly separated.
Xiao Ping'er's voice came up and said: "Long Yangjun wants to see the general."
Xiang Shaolong remembered tonight's date with Long Yangjun and sneered in his heart, wondering what excuse this old friend could find to cancel his escape plan.
After Feng Fei answered on his behalf, she said softly: "No matter how late you come back, remember to come to her place. What Feng Fei is looking for is not any status or responsibility, it's just a one-night stand."
