"Young Master Lu, your swordplay skills are... too bad!" Fang Zhengzhi looked at the sword on the ground and sighed.
"It is pretty bad!" Chi Guyan shook her head.
Lu Yusheng's throat moved. He wanted to explain, but when the words were at the tip of his tongue, he couldn't bring himself to say them. His swordplay skills were pretty good?
Didn't that mean that he was a swordplayer?
When he thought of this, Lu Yusheng felt as if he had been stuffed with shit. He was really frustrated, so frustrated that he could not even explain himself.
At this moment, Chi Guyan had already walked past Lu Yusheng with Fang Zhengzhi.
The two of them...
Didn't even look at him.
"Let's sit together?" Fang Zhengzhi looked at Yan Xiu.
Yan Xiu looked at Fang Zhengzhi with a strange expression, then looked at Chi Guyan, who was standing beside Fang Zhengzhi. Finally, his expression returned to a cold one.
"Sure!" Yan Xiu did not reject.
"Today, I have not been a good host. When Young Master Yan Xiu returns to Western Liang, please apologise to Grandfather Yan!" Chi Guyan bowed slightly to Yan Xiu.
"You are too polite!" Yan Xiu bowed to Chi Guyan.
Fang Zhengzhi listened to Yan Xiu and Chi Guyan's conversation. Why did the two of them like to talk about his grandfather? He was confused. However, this was Yan Xiu's family matters. If Yan Xiu did not say, he would not ask.
The three of them walked shoulder to shoulder. Chi Guyan continued to hold Fang Zhengzhi's arm. Yan Xiu walked on the other side of Fang Zhengzhi, just like three close friends.
When the three of them reached the main seat, Yan Xiu bowed to Chi Hou.
"Greetings Lord Chi Hou!"
"Haha... Xiu Er, there is no need to be so courteous. Let's sit together!" Chi Hou was especially courteous to Yan Xiu. He did not seem unhappy that Fang Zhengzhi invited Yan Xiu to sit together.
At this point, the Divine Constabulary banquet finally began.
Lu Yusheng stood in the middle of the aisle with a depressed expression, performing the drunken swordplay.
When the sword came out, the wind and clouds shook. Shadows floated in the air. Clouds floated...
To be honest, Lu Yusheng's sword dance was not bad. On the contrary, it was beautiful and full of charm. Unfortunately, he didn't look too good.
…
"Pa!"
Not far away, in a classically elegant attic, a sparkling white jade-like teacup was smashed to the ground, instantly turning into a pile of fragments.
This was an extremely valuable teacup. There were no impurities on it, so it must have come from a famous kiln. In terms of value, it was at least enough to feed a family of three for ten years.
However, the person who smashed the cup was still not satisfied. He stepped on the broken pieces with one foot and crushed them into powder …
"Kill!" A voice as cold as ice rang out from the mouth of a twenty-three to twenty-four year old youth. His sword-like brows were filled with anger, and the white robes on his body fluttered slightly.
"King Duan, you can't!" An old man in a black and white Taoist robe standing behind the young man shook his head slightly and hurriedly stopped him.
"Why not? Isn't he just a poor kid from a mountain village? I have been in the Divine Constabulary for so many days, but Chi Guyan hasn't even seen me once. Now, she suddenly came up with a ten year agreement, this is clearly a joke! "King Duan's body trembled slightly, clearly on the verge of exploding in anger.
"Those who achieve great things do not bother with trifles! King Duan, please calm down! "The old man in the black and white Taoist robe sighed and continued to persuade.
King Duan didn't say anything else, but he couldn't suppress the coldness in his body.
"Your Highness King Duan, think carefully. Now that you and the Crown Prince are opposing each other in front of the Emperor, Chi Guyan's allegiance has become the most important factor. If Chi Guyan finds out that Your Highness has attacked Fang Zhengzhi, even if you can break this agreement, You will probably push Chi Guyan towards the Crown Prince's side! "
"Then what do you think?"
"Wait and see!"
"No, it would be fine if I didn't see it. But now that I have seen it with my own eyes, how can I tolerate it?"
"Sigh … if your highness insists on this. Then I will have to take some risks. "Old Wen seemed to be in a difficult position as he looked at the main seat of the banquet nearby and shook his head.
"When I first stepped on this path, I was already mentally prepared. Why can't I take a little risk? Old Wen, why don't you tell me what you think? "
"Kill with a borrowed knife!"
"Kill with a borrowed knife?! Whose knife? How? "
"Whoever's hatred is deep enough can borrow the knife from that person! King Duan, please take a look! "Old Wen pointed towards a position in the banquet.
And there, there was a person leaping into the air, wielding a gleaming long sword in one hand and an empty silver cup in the other. He had a bitter look on his face as he danced there …
…
The dishes at the Divine Constabulary's banquet weren't as luxurious and exquisite as imagined. Instead, they were more crude, filled with the smell of a bloody soldier on the battlefield.
The main dish was freshly slaughtered Green-horned White Goats. A ball of fire was lit in the middle of the field, boiling wine. It made people feel as if they had returned to the army camp on the battlefield.
Fang Zhengzhi was very used to such a banquet. The taste of the wilderness was exactly what he was used to living in the mountain village for many years. Yan Xiu also liked it very much.
This made Fang Zhengzhi even more curious about Yan Xiu's background.
After the banquet started, the atmosphere returned to normal. Chi Hou also displayed the aura of an iron-blooded military marquis, and drank the wine like it was plain water … …
People who dominated the battlefield had always been straightforward.
Chi Hou was no exception. When something had already been decided, he wouldn't mention it further. Lady Chi had followed Chi Hou for many years, and her gentle and elegant aura also carried a sense of heroism.
She also drank a few cups with the officials and scholars from the five constabularies.
When the Divine Constabulary banquet ended, Fang Zhengzhi, Yan Xiu and a few other scholars were arranged to stay in the Divine Constabulary.
After all, they still had to enter the Heavenly Treasure Hall the next morning.
…
The moon was like a hook, the stars like fire. Within the Divine Constabulary, the shadows of the trees danced, the fragrance of the flowers filled the air, and the green water gently shimmered. And in a pavilion in a courtyard of the Divine Constabulary, two exquisite figures, one sitting and one standing.
Standing at the side of the pavilion was a young lady, Yuer, dressed in a green dress and with a silver hairpin in her hair. At this moment, she looked at Chi Guyan, who was sitting in front of her and lightly playing the guqin. A look of confusion appeared on her pure white face.
She really couldn't understand what this missy of hers was thinking.
"Missy …"
"You want to ask me why I am doing this?" Chi Guyan pressed her hand on the strings of the guqin, and the flowing music suddenly stopped.
"Yes, that little … Young Master Fang, how can he be compatible with missy?" Yuer pouted. Evidently, she wasn't very satisfied.
"I don't think there's anything about compatibility. Everyone is equal, what's the difference between nobility and lowliness? However … today's matter has indeed somewhat exceeded my original expectations! "
"Could it be that even Miss Lian never thought that such a thing would happen?" Yue'er was a little surprised. Ever since she followed Chi Guyan. Ever since she followed Chi Guyan, this was the first time she heard of something that exceeded Chi Guyan's expectations.
"Actually, the reason why I came down from the Heaven Dao Pavilion was to verify the thoughts in my heart." Chi Guyan didn't answer Yuer's question, but continued.
"Thoughts in your heart?"
"Yes, a thought that has troubled me for a year. But later on, I realised that verifying this thought was somewhat difficult, because that shameless thief is too comfortable, as comfortable as a real commoner! I think … even for the Law of Dao examinations, he probably only participated with the attitude of giving it a try? "
"Could it be. Missy's thoughts have anything to do with Young Master Fang? " Yuer naturally knew who the shameless thief Chi Guyan was talking about was, hence, her expression became even more curious.
"Even if it has something to do with him, it's not completely related to him! Double Dragon Roll Champion, shocking the world, obtaining it can bring peace to the world! This Heavenly Prophecy is definitely not as simple as it seems. Furthermore, the Heavenly Prophecy wouldn't set a time for no reason. Two years later. There must be a huge plot in the entire world, but … I can't see this plot! For the Great Xia Dynasty, for the entire human race, I can only force him. Furthermore, I've already made all the preparations. If my thoughts are really wrong, then I'll let go, and let him return to the Northern Mountain Village to live the life he wants. "
"Heavenly Prophecy?! Isn't missy the Heavenly Prophecy? How is it related to Young Master Fang? Furthermore, why did missy say that it's out of your original thoughts? "
"The time isn't up yet. How can the Heavenly Prophecy be set so easily? Of course, I'm only guessing now. I originally only wanted to give him some pressure, but I didn't expect him to be even smarter than I thought! Furthermore, even though this shameless thief has a comfortable personality, but he has an arrogance in his bones. This arrogance doesn't allow him to admit defeat, hence … this time, I've lost to him again! "
"Missy lost again?! Don't tell me, missy really lost to him eight years ago? "
"I've lost once in a one on one battle, and I've also lost once in a battle of strategies. Actually, I've still concealed some things today!"
When Lady Yuer heard this, her expression seemed to be somewhat understanding, but she still didn't understand. After all, she had never thought about what Chi Guyan was saying.
"But even eight years ago, Young Master Fang's abilities weren't even on the same level as missy's. In a one on one battle … how could he have lost?"
"That's right … how could he have lost?"
Chi Guyan raised her head slightly and looked at the bright moon in the sky. A gust of wind blew past, swirling her hair on her shoulders and her pure white dress. She looked like a fairy from the Moon Palace.
"Tomorrow's Heavenly Treasure Hall, I believe he will definitely be very surprised!"
As she finished speaking, her slender and pure white hands trembled slightly, and the strings of the zither were lightly plucked once again.
"Ding!" A light sound rang out.
Immediately after, the sound of the zither started flowing once again. At this moment, the entire world seemed to have been influenced by the sound of the zither, and fell into a state of peace.
Yuer didn't speak anymore. She only quietly waited by Chi Guyan's side. The doubt on her face disappeared, leaving behind only a sense of peace and tranquility.
The moon was like a hook, the stars were like fire, the sound of the zither was like flowing water …
…
(During this period of time, I've been writing until two or three at night every day. Then, because my brain is in a state of excitement, I can only fall asleep after four. I really can't take it anymore, and my family has started scolding me. I won't stay up tonight, and try to wake up earlier tomorrow. Then, I'll update two more chapters in the day! In the future, I'll try not to update past 12: 30 at night!) (To be continued.)
