Sword God Wine Ancestor

Chapter 222 Invitation
Su Bai didn't know what to say, Xiao San didn't feel any more sour, and took out a piece of red cardboard from his bosom, and handed it to him.

"What is this? An invitation card?" Su Bai took it and looked at it, but he didn't understand why he was being given this.

Xiao San nodded and said: "Yes, it is an invitation card, and it is an invitation card from the Fifth Prince Zhao Yan. They also specifically stated that they want to invite you. I see, I am actually an incidental one. They just want to invite you." !"

Su Bai was stunned for a while, Fifth Prince?Zhao Yan?Do you know this person yourself?Suddenly, his heart moved again, thinking that after he came to Beijing, he asked Xiaosan about Mr. Yan but it was fruitless. In his understanding, Mr. Yan is definitely a rich family, the kind that is either rich or noble. It's unknown, how come Xiaosan hasn't even heard of it?

Now when Xiaosan mentioned the name of the fifth prince, Su Bai suddenly remembered that Mr. Yan might not have the surname Yan, but a word Yan in his name, maybe it is the fifth prince!He opened the invitation and found that Zhao Yan's Yan was the Yan of Young Master Yan. Another thing, he seemed to remember that Young Master Yan said that he was ranked fifth in his family at that time, but his impression was very vague and he couldn't remember clearly. up.

Seeing that Su Bai didn't speak, Xiao San didn't know that he was thinking about this, and thought that Su Bai was wondering why the Fifth Prince invited him, so she explained: "You don't know, after the last spring hunting, you went to the nobles of the capital You are well-known among the children, and the credit for saving the prince is not small! The seventh prince even gave you the thousand-mile horse that he got. Isn’t this a corporal of courtesy and virtuousness! This matter of you has already become a good story in Shangjing. !"

Su Bai curled his lips and said, "What are you talking about?"

Xiaosan clicked her tongue and said: "Don't pretend to be confused, the Seventh Prince intends to take you under his account, you don't understand this, right? This is really climbing a high branch!"

Hearing this, Su Bai could not help but frown tightly, and said with a serious expression: "Little third brother, is what you said true? Do people outside think so? Do you think I have taken refuge in the Seventh Prince?"

Seeing that he was so serious, Xiao San stopped joking, nodded seriously and said: "Although it has not been made public, and the Seventh Prince has not admitted it, many noble children really think so."

Hearing this, Su Bai's head suddenly became dizzy. He never thought, why did things turn out like this?At that time, he saw that the Seventh Prince Zhao Zhen was in danger, so he couldn't just leave him alone, right?Afterwards, the other party should thank him, and it is only natural for him to accept the other party's gift!It's true that he is willing to help others and does good deeds without leaving his name!This is like doing business, there are back and forth, how come I want to take refuge in the Seventh Prince Zhao Zhen!

He didn't want to participate too much in the affairs of the court, and now he regrets joining the "Jiugongmen". Why is it involved in joining the prince now?
Seeing Su Bai's expression, Xiao San roughly guessed that he might not be very willing about this matter. Xiao San actually understood it very well, after all, he himself didn't want to get involved in these matters between the princes, just like now including the Lu family. Many big families in China did not choose to stand in line. This is something to be carefully considered.

Xiaosan patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother Su, you don't have to worry too much. After all, things haven't been settled yet! Although it is said that if the Seventh Prince asks directly, it may be bad for you to refuse him, but you can let him Don't open your mouth like that!"

Su Bai was taken aback, and asked, "What do you mean, little third brother?"

Xiao Sanyi smiled and said: "The opportunity is here now! The fifth prince Zhao Yan invited you to the banquet, of course you will go, not only to go, but also to show affection to the fifth prince Zhao Yan at the banquet! Such a Others will think that you haven't chosen to take refuge with the Seventh Prince, otherwise you wouldn't be so close to the Fifth Prince, in this way, even if the Seventh Prince directly asks you whether to take refuge with you afterward, you can prevaricate it without answering directly."

Su Bai thought about it carefully, and it seems that this is indeed possible. Originally, he was going to attend this banquet, so as to confirm whether the fifth prince, Zhao Yan, was the Young Master Yan he knew.But thinking about it again, the more he deals with the fifth prince, the more he will be involved with the royal family, and maybe he will end up in a quagmire and cannot extricate himself, which is not what he wants to see.

It's just that if the fifth prince, Zhao Yan, was really the Young Master Yan he knew, then he might have been involved in it a long time ago. For a moment, Su Bai felt a little dizzy, and suddenly felt that it was a mistake for him to come to Beijing!

The little San on the side also shook his head suddenly, Su Bai was getting irritable, and said angrily, "What are you shaking your head again, little San? Could it be that I can't even attend this banquet?"

Xiaosan replied: "That's not true, but I suddenly remembered that the fifth prince, Zhao Yan, is not one of the strong contenders for the throne. I'm afraid it's not right for you to seek refuge with him, and I'm afraid you will have to make friends with other princes in the future." Just do it."

Su Bai's face darkened, when did he say that he wanted to join the prince?Isn't this to get rid of the Seventh Prince?He hastily waved his hand and said: "Forget it, I never thought that I would really seek refuge with a certain prince, and whether others are strong contenders for the throne has nothing to do with me!"

Xiao San chuckled and said nothing more.

Su Bai asked: "By the way, third brother, you haven't said what kind of banquet this is. I can't just go without knowing anything, right?"

Xiaosan smiled and said: "This time the Fifth Prince held a banquet, many people were invited, there is no reason for it, it is a private reception, and the people who went were probably the friends of the Fifth Prince, if you say that the Fifth Prince Zhao Yan, he is also considered one of the princes. What's more special is that he usually doesn't live in the palace, but buys a house by himself and runs a business on his own. He has contact with people of all religions and ranks on weekdays, and he doesn't have the airs of a prince at all."

Su Bai's heart moved when he heard the words, and he felt more and more that the fifth prince, Zhao Yan, was the son of that Yan.

The time for the banquet was the night after tomorrow. Su Bai originally planned to ask Xiaosan about other things about the fifth prince Zhao Yan, but after thinking about it, he decided to forget it. If it was really that young master Yan, then he knew him already, if not, he I don't plan to have a deep friendship with the other party.

The two chatted for a while, Xiaosan went to attend to his own affairs, and Su Bai also went to the headquarters of "Jiugongmen", the wine was found by him, and the case was solved. Three third-class cases, plus the previous first-class case that he completed with Xiaosan and Xiaowu, he has already met the conditions for promotion to the second-class head arrester.

Su Bai didn't hesitate, and was directly promoted to the second-class headhunter. The clothes didn't change much, except that the belt around his waist changed from blue to red. Su Bai didn't think blue was very good-looking, but after turning into red, he felt it was more conspicuous. No, he is not in his birth year!

After becoming a second-class head catcher, Su Bai's treatment has been improved, his salary has doubled, and he can learn some news and information in the "Nine Palaces Gate", such as the secret bases in various places. Of course, this is not something that can be browsed at will. , only when the case is handled in a certain place, can it be inquired.

He didn't look at the other odds and ends, but paid attention to the conditions needed to be promoted from the second-class headhunter to the first-class headhunter. One is to have a first-class state, and the other is to complete ten second-class cases, or three first-class cases, or one super-first-class case.

As for the third-class cases, no matter how many cases are completed, it is useless. Su Bai couldn't help but frowned. In fact, the case is not as easy to complete as that one, and it is not a third-class head arrester who is competent. In this way, if the case cannot be solved, it is likely to become a death case, at least the probability will increase.

Even though he thought of this, Su Bai didn't intend to say it out. After all, the "Nine Palaces Gate" doesn't exist for long. Since it can operate for such a long time, if there are any mistakes, the people above won't pay attention to it. I realized that since this regulation still exists, it means that there is no major problem.

He is not in the mood to handle the case now, so after he was promoted, he left the headquarters, but when passing by the door, the elder Zong suddenly sat up straight, opened his eyes and looked at Su Bai, Su Bai stopped suddenly, feeling his hands and feet stiff , There is a feeling of being watched by a beast, and if you are not careful, you will be swallowed in one bite.

He didn't even notice what Elder Zong's eyes looked like, and the other party had already lay back and closed his eyes again. Only then did Su Bai heave a sigh of relief, realizing that in such a short moment, the clothes on his back had been covered with cold sweat. Soaked in water, he felt a little horrified, how high is Zong Lao's martial arts?I'm afraid he is about to reach the point where he can kill people with his eyes!

Before crossing, Su Bai had watched many martial arts novels, film and television dramas. In Jin Daxia's work "Tianlong", the sweeping monk "killed" Xiao Yuanshan with his eyes. strength!

Elder Zong said indifferently: "It's really you Su boy! I didn't expect you to break through so quickly. I thought I was wrong just now. It seems that you have another chance during this time? I didn't see you showing any signs of breaking through before. of."

Su Bai didn't know how the other party saw it. As for the fact that he made a breakthrough after drinking a bowl of wine, he naturally wouldn't tell it, so he smiled and said, "The boy is just lucky, and I am a little puzzled to break through like this all of a sudden. Woolen cloth."

Elder Zong shook his head and said: "Okay, no one can say for sure about chance. As for the signs of breakthrough, it is also changing at any time. The bald donkeys of 'Shaolin' pay attention to epiphany, and there is indeed a little reason for it. You don't have to Explains so much."

Su Bai didn't think about explaining at first, seeing that the other party had stopped talking, he saluted and left.

Time flies by, and soon it will be the day of the fifth prince Zhao Yan's banquet. That night, Su Bai and Xiaosan are riding in a carriage and heading towards the fifth prince's house. Su Bai finds that the fifth prince's house is in the northeast city .
