That year, that cicada, that sword

Chapter 1086

It is said that the family of Zhongming Dingshi, but there are only a handful of aristocratic families in the world that are truly worthy of these four words, and the Northeast Mu family is one of them.

The banquet tonight is not the popular round table dining together, but rather an ancient style of sharing meals, one person sits on a desk, kneels on a cushion, and there are maids on both sides of the desk holding white jade jugs and holding ivory long chopsticks Serving dishes, with a wide robe and long sleeves, dressed like a lady from the south of the Yangtze River, with a red jade belt tied on her head, every time she pours wine and serves dishes, she gently lifts her big sleeves with one hand, like red sleeves adding fragrance, she is indescribably elegant, not like a maid, She looks like a daughter of an ordinary wealthy family.

Halfway through the wine, there were musicians playing music on both sides of the banquet, and white-clothed dancers entered the arena. The sleeves are full of dark fragrance, and the fragrant wind blows.

The lights are brilliant, the beauties are dancing lightly, and the cups of wine are intertwined. It is really like a fairyland on earth.

The dancer of the Prince Mu's Mansion is a masterpiece, proficient in the six generations of dance, namely "Cloud Gate", "Xianchi", "Da Shao", "Da Xia", "Da Bo", "Da Wu", also known as the Six Dynasties. Le, when Gongsun Zhongmou and Xu Beiyou's master and apprentice visited the Liao Palace, Mu Tangzhi asked the dancers to play "Cloud Gate" to cheer up the fun. Today, they changed to "Da Shao". Sheng, xiao, gong, drum, ji, yi, yong and other musical instruments sing together, and the dancers are like flying birds, like a hundred birds facing the phoenix.

As for who is the Phoenix, it is naturally the host of this banquet.

The entire hall was brightly lit, and countless red candles the size of a baby's arm were lit all over the candlesticks. The Liao King Mutang, who was just a year old, sat in the main seat. Although there was Mrs. Feng by his side, he seemed to be alone and alone. The ground alone faces south and backs north.

Drinking fine wine, watching this dance, and being the guest of the majestic Northeast Shepherd King, Chu Tongcheng, who was full of ambition, couldn't help but applaud loudly, which immediately aroused the echo of other visitors and turned into a full house of applause.

After a dance, the dancers were about to leave the stage, but at this moment, an uninvited guest who arrived slowly walked into the lobby, just in sharp contrast to the dancers in white who left the stage.

Many visitors in the hall followed, and they couldn't help but show unimaginable expressions.

Wasn't the "Great Governor" of the small Northeast court unable to come because of the tight war?Why did it suddenly appear here again?
Zha Qing, who was "supposed" to sit on the front line of Shanhai City, was wearing a strong and persistent sword, with a knife on his waist, and his body was full of wind and frost. He really looked like he had just walked off the battlefield.

Sitting on the main seat, Mu Tangzhi put down the wine glass in his hand, didn't get up, his expression was peaceful and calm, like an old friend meeting, and he said flatly: "You're here."

Zha Qing didn't speak, but stopped and put his hand on the knife head at his waist.

This knife is the monkey knife among the twelve drinking snow knives.

At that time, Wanyan Beiyue donated the Dragon Knife, Snake Knife, Saber and Monkey Knife among the twelve snow-drinking knives to Emperor Daqi, King Wei of Wei State, King Grassland Khan and Northeast Muwang respectively.Because Mu Tangzhi didn't use a knife, he donated the knife to Zhong Mang Cha Qing, who holds military power in the Northeast.

Because of this, the meaning of this knife to the two of them is very unusual.

Mutangzhi's gaze then moved down, and landed on the monkey knife, finally showing a somewhat complicated expression on his face.

Zha Qing pressed the head of the knife with one hand, and slowly raised it with the other.

Suddenly, the sound of strong and sturdy footsteps, the clattering of armor, the clashing of knives and axes, and the trampling of combat boots could be heard from outside the hall.

Immediately afterwards, another torch was lit, one after another, like a fire dragon, reflecting the outside in a blur.

All the guests who came here at the invitation saw this scene, they didn't know what happened, all of them were pale, and there were many people who were fighting with each other, because they were kneeling, they couldn't even sit still.

At this moment, there was no sound of people, no music, and the lobby was completely silent.

Zha Qing looked around, looked at the guests in the hall, and slowly said: "Maybe some of you already know, maybe some don't know, the imperial court has issued a decree, the governor Zhao Wuji will personally lead the troops, State, Youzhou, Jinzhou, Beidu, put down the rebellion."

The word "imperial court" was bitten very hard by Zha Qing. All the people here are human beings. There is no reason why they don't understand. The right-hand man of the Northeast Liao king does not call him "Xiao Qi" but "imperial court" , as if he had already regarded himself as a courtier, his heart suddenly became cold.

Although there were rumors early in the morning, it is just that the Mu family has been operating in the Northeast for many years. Before the real confirmation, most people are still hesitant or lucky. Now hearing what Cha Qing said, it is really like a thunderclap. Let their atrium tremble suddenly, almost stop beating, frightened to death.

At this time, in the hall, except for a few people, most of the people were all pale and panicked.

Zha Qing said word by word: "His Royal Highness Princess Regent Jun's orders, orders, orders, orders!"

"Against Wang Tangzhi, honor Taizong's success, He Benchao's kindness, but he does not want to repay the favor. He supports the army and threatens the court. Anyone who does not follow will raise troops to make chaos. So the world is peaceful and peaceful? The people are peaceful and peaceful ? The national security is not in chaos? The natural disaster police are not in time?"

The four questions in succession were sonorous and forceful, like thunder from a silent place, making everyone in the hall even more frightened, as if the sky above them was about to collapse.

Zha Qing continued to speak loudly: "Shangyu! Today, the heavenly soldiers of the imperial court will be revived, and the rebels of the Mu family will be put down. Whoever wins Tang's head will be made an earl and will be rewarded with a million dollars in silver. Those of the Mu family, I hope you will repent before it is too late, and if you can fight back, the imperial court will also be lenient as appropriate!"

There was silence in the hall.

Zha Qing looked around again, and said slowly: "If there are people who are obsessed with obsession and still stubbornly resist, they will be dealt with as traitors and killed without mercy."

A murderous killing word made everyone in the hall tremble suddenly, and then a cold air rose from the back, passing through the tailbone and penetrating the back of the head, making the scalp numb.

Mutang, King of Liao whose head had already been offered as a reward, was expressionless, Lin Zong was full of sorrow, Emperor Fengdu frowned, only Chu Tongcheng remained calm.

Then the counselor of the King of Wei got up slowly, and knowingly asked: "Who is in the hall? How dare you speak outrageous words here!"

Zha Qing, who was wearing the left-duty-style armor, slid his palm from the head of the knife to the handle, and said coldly: "This governor is the left-duty supervisor of the Great Qi Right Army, and he is ordered to hunt down thieves!"

The word "seeking thief" is like Hong Zhong Da Lu, echoing in the lobby, shaking people's eardrums.

Zha Qing raised and lowered the five fingers of his right hand holding the handle of the knife one by one. After holding the handle tightly, he asked, "Who are you?"

Chu Tongcheng shook his sleeves, and said loudly: "I am the special envoy of King Wei, surnamed Chu, going up to Tongcheng and down to the city."

Zha Qing twitched the corner of his mouth, "I know what kind of person it is, it turns out that he is a traitor to King Wei."

Chu Tongcheng was furious, and was about to speak out to reprimand, but Zha Qing had already taken a heavy step forward, and drew his knife out fiercely.

A bright white light flashed past.

Moment of youth.

The next moment, the head fell to the ground.
