Chapter 96: The Golden Masked Guard Playing the Fairy (2)
As soon as Lin Yi entered the hall, everyone's eyes were focused on him. They were all so surprised. They were wondering who this mysterious "gold-faced guard" was and why he appeared again after disappearing for a while.
Although Prime Minister Lu and Shangguan Minghong were surprised, they could not help but frown slightly. They looked unhappy at the sudden arrival of the golden-masked guard. Although the other party was a "gold-masked guard", one of them was the prime minister and the other was Wang Hu.
The leader of the generals obviously did not take the golden-masked guard seriously.
Some officials were about to stand up to greet them, but seeing the cold faces of Prime Minister Lu and Shangguan Minghong, they sat back down after just leaving their chairs.
This shows the control and influence that Lu Xiang and Shangguan Minghong had on these officials.
Lin Yi walked towards Xiang Lu and his party's table.
Qing Honghe followed closely behind him.
Lin Yi walked to the table and stood there.
Prime Minister Lu looked at Lin Yi expressionlessly and said, "I am hosting a banquet for Prince Ling today and will invite you all to accompany me. It seems that I did not invite the golden-faced guards."
Shangguan Minghong also said: "It's very inappropriate to come uninvited, bring people into the banquet hall without reporting anything. Mr. Lu and I are still in the banquet hall."
What Shangguan Minghong meant was that the golden-faced guard did not take him and Prime Minister Lu seriously.
Although Lin Yi is now the "gold-faced bodyguard", he cannot be arrogant when facing the two giants of the dynasty.
Lin Yi seemed neither humble nor arrogant.
"Prime Minister, General Shangguan, Your Majesty knew that Prime Minister Lu was hosting a banquet for the King of the Tomb, and that you were also accompanied by all the gentlemen. I originally wanted to come and have fun with everyone, but due to my health, I was unable to leave the palace, so I ordered me to come as my representative." At this point,
Lin Yi took out a manuscript and handed it to Prime Minister Lu: "This is the sacred manuscript."
It turns out that the golden-faced guard actually came on behalf of the emperor.
And there is also the emperor's edict.
This nature is different. If you are negligent, it is contempt of the holy will, and it is the crime of bullying the emperor.
So the officials in the hall stood up on their feet.
Prime Minister Lu, Shangguan Minghong, and Li Chao also stood up.
Prime Minister Lu respectfully received the emperor's handwriting. After reading it, his expression suddenly became awe-inspiring. It was awe of the power of the emperor.
Prime Minister Lu said: "It's an oracle."
As soon as Mr. Lu said this, Shangguan Minghong's displeased expression suddenly turned apologetic. The officials in the hall quickly saluted Lin Yi.
Lin Yi nodded slightly to the officials.
Then he glanced at Qin Dingfang behind Li Chao.
Qin Dingfang also looked at Lin Yi.
At this moment, only each other can understand the gaze between the two.
Because in this world, we are the people who understand each other best.
Although Qin Dingfang changed his mask, he could not hide it from Lin Yi.
Lin Yi really didn't expect that Qin Dingfang was here. This meant that Qin Dingfang and Li Chao were cooperating again.
Then Prime Minister Lu and Shangguan Minghong invited Lin Yi to the table and sat in the middle, right between Li Chao and Prime Minister Lu.
Lin Yi sat down, and then Lu Xiang and others sat down one after another.
Lin Yi said: "Let's continue to have fun, and don't disturb the atmosphere with my arrival."
So the music continued to sound, and the beauties continued to dance gracefully.
The officials started drinking and mingling again.
Lin Yi came to attend the banquet for Li Chao on behalf of the emperor. According to etiquette, Li Chao had to toast Lin Yi respectfully. Li Chao stood up, holding a glass of wine in both hands and was about to toast, when Lin Yi said: "Prince Ling, please wait."
Li Chao looked suspicious.
Lin Yi smiled and said: "Today, Prince Ling also ridiculed me, saying that I will never be on the stage. It is difficult to participate in such a feast, but here I am. Now, Prince Ling, you want to toast me, have you thought about it?"
"
Li Chao was shocked when he heard this.
At this moment, Qin Dingfang, who was behind Li Chao, used his voice transmission skills to say to him: "This golden-masked guard is Lin Yi! It's Lin Yi, the bastard! Since he is a golden-masked guard, he still... has the will of heaven.
What!"
Qin Dingfang's mood at this moment is really indescribable.
He felt like his chest was going to explode.
Although Lin Yi wore a gold mask, he still recognized Lin Yi from his voice and behavior.
Qin Dingfang never imagined that Lin Yi would be a "gold-faced guard"!
He is the "popular person" around the emperor.
He now fully understood why Lin Yi was acquitted.
It turns out that Lin Yi and the current emperor "hooked up" together.
The emperor is supporting Lin Yi!
He just climbed up to a prince from the Western Regions, and Lin Yi now represents the current emperor.
It's really hard to compare to him.
It was unbelievable for Li Chao to learn that the "gold-faced guard" was Lin Yi. This was something he had never dreamed of. Li Chao's face suddenly became extremely embarrassed. He held the glass of wine, neither toasting nor putting it away.
His expression was as ugly as if someone had stuffed him with shit.
Although what Lin Yi said to Li Chao was not loud, Prime Minister Lu and Shangguan Minghong heard it clearly.
The two of them had long suspected that Lin Yi was the "gold-faced guard".
But there has never been conclusive evidence.
Even if there were, they would not pierce the window paper. After all, they had to take the emperor's face into consideration.
Now, it is finally confirmed that Lin Yi is the golden-faced guard.
Prime Minister Lu and Shangguan Minghong each had a subtle feeling in their hearts.
Prime Minister Lu used his voice transmission skills to say to Lin Yi: "Prince Lin, the Li Dynasty is here to discuss peace. This is of great importance to our Dynasty. We cannot embarrass him too much. Otherwise, my efforts will be in vain."
Now Lin Yi is a golden-faced bodyguard, and Prime Minister Lu also respects Lin Yi as King Lin.
Lin Yi used his voice transmission skills to reply: "Don't worry, Mr. Lu, I have my own sense of proportion."
Then Lin Yi stood up, took the wine from Li Chao and said with a smile: "Thanks to King Ling for his respect, I must drink my wine."
After saying that, Lin Yi drank the wine in one gulp.
Lin Yi took the jug and filled the empty cup again. He said: "The King Ling has the common people in his heart. He stopped fighting and promoted reconciliation, so that the two countries could put an end to the scourge of war and bring peace to the country and the people. It is really admirable. I offer a glass to the King Ling."
.”
Only then did Li Chao come back to his senses.
Although he wanted to eat Lin Yi's flesh and blood at this moment, he could only grit his teeth and endure it.
The King of the Tomb forced himself to smile.
Li Chao took the drink.
This wine was the most angry and aggrieved wine that Li Chao had ever drunk in his life.
But there is no doubt that Lin Yi's move gave Li Chao enough face. If Lin Yi took the opportunity to mock Li Chao, Li Chao would be crazy.
Then the two sat down again, and the banquet continued amidst the sounds of singing and dancing.
But now the moods of Li Chao, Prime Minister Lu, Shangguan Minghong, and Qin Dingfang have also changed.
It seems harmonious, but there is an awkward atmosphere.
After everyone had indescribable emotions and exchanged cups, Lin Yi pretended to be curious and said to Li Chao: "Prince Ling, who is the girl behind you? Why is her eyes red?"
After hearing Lin Yi's question, Li Chao wanted to throw the wine glass in his hand at Lin Yi's face, while Qin Dingfang wanted to rush forward and strangle Lin Yi to death.
But Lin Yi asked, and Li Chao couldn't turn a deaf ear.
After all, Lin Yi now represents the emperor.
Moreover, Li Chao had previously told officials that Qin Dingfang was the Fairy Feiling.
Now he can't make another one.
Li Chao could only say: "She...she is the Feiling Fairy from Lingding Mountain in my Western Region. Her eyes turned red because she practiced a strange skill."
