Chu Huan frowned, slightly surprised and said: "General Xuanyuan, you mean, among the most trusted personal guards around General Feng, among the famous thirteen Taibao in the northwest, there is an inner ghost?"

Xuanyuan Shao nodded and said: "It is precisely because of General Feng's trust that the Thirteenth Taibao may have known the route of exit and investigation from General Feng in advance, and it is also because of this that people in Xiliang may have known the route of General Feng's action in advance. , make arrangements in advance. If it is not a person trusted by General Feng, how can outsiders know the course of action of General Feng?" After a pause, he continued: "Since the Thirteenth Taibao is General Feng's personal guard, it is said that every time the wind When the general moves, the Thirteenth Taibao will follow closely and will never leave. The battle of Changtian Valley must have been extremely fierce, and the Thirteenth Taibao must have lived and died with General Feng. General Feng has died in battle, and the Thirteenth Taibao How could they survive? According to common sense, none of the thirteen Taibao would abandon General Feng. When they were alive, they guarded General Feng, and they must be with General Feng's corpse after death. But the corpse of Blood Wolf If he is still alive and he is not seen returning to the Northwest Army, it can only prove that he is the ghost who betrayed General Feng and the Thirteenth Taibao. If nothing unexpected, Blood Wolf is now in Xiliang!"

Chu Huan thoughtfully, finally nodded slightly and said: "What General Xuanyuan said is not unreasonable. From this point of view, the blood wolf may really be the ghost."

Xuanyuan Shao stared at Chu Huan's face for a long time, and finally said: "It is said that General Feng treats the Thirteen Taibao as his own heirs, and he is reborn with kindness. The blood wolf betrayed General Feng and the twelve princes he had been with day and night for his own self-interest. Brother, Lord Chu, do you think such a person should be cut to pieces?"

Chu Huan looked up at the moon and said calmly, "Maybe so!"

"If he also dies towards the blood wolf, I don't know how he will go to see General Feng and the other twelve Taibao under the Nine Springs." Xuanyuan Shao also looked up at the moon and asked, "Master Chu, if one day You happened to meet a blood wolf by chance, what would you do?"

Chu Huan pondered for a moment before asking back, "What will General Xuanyuan do?"

Xuanyuan Shao said calmly: "To be able to murder General Feng, such a murderous and evil person, is exactly what I aim for. If I can meet him, I will definitely shoot him with one arrow!"

Chu Huan smiled faintly: "The general is brave, I only hope that the blood wolf will not run into the general in his lifetime."

Xuanyuan Shao asked with a half-smile, "Does Master Chu not want to kill the blood wolf?"

"Of course I want to." Chu Huan said seriously: "If it is really the blood wolf who betrayed General Feng, Chu is duty-bound, and he will definitely kill the blood wolf!"

Xuanyuan Shao smiled and said: "Master Chu is going to Xiliang this time, why not pay attention and see if the blood wolf is really in Xiliang."

"Of course Chu will investigate secretly." Chu Huan nodded and said, "It's just that if he really betrayed General Feng, he will definitely not show it to others easily, even in Xiliang, he will hide it and want to find out about him. I'm afraid it will be very difficult to get whereabouts."

Xuanyuan Shao looked at Chu Huan for a few times, smiled, and just looked up at the moon without speaking.

Suddenly, the eunuch's voice was heard from the Guangming Palace: "All the ministers enter the palace and sit down!"

The courtiers waiting outside the Guangming Palace immediately arranged their clothes and filed in. The state banquet has its own seats, and everyone knows where they should be. Under the guidance of the eunuch who is in charge of ceremonies, Chu Huan also sat cross-legged in front of a table in the palace .

In terms of official position, there is no place for him in this hall, but he is both a deputy envoy and a viscount, but he can also sit in the middle seat, and in front of him is Xue Huai'an.

Xuanyuan Shao was in charge of guarding the palace and did not attend the table.

There are nearly a hundred seats in the hall, and there are three rows on the left and right. The first person on the left is Han Wang Yingping, and below that is Yingren. The crown prince still has not attended the state banquet. Gong Huang Ju.

Except for a few very special ones, such as Xuanyuan Pingzhang, Duke of Yi, and Lei Guheng, General of Zhenguo, almost all of the important officials in the court were present.

Chu Huan was sitting in the right side of the table, just facing Yingping. This time, he finally met Han Wang Yingping. Surprised, I didn't expect the third prince of Qin Dynasty to be such a handsome man, even women can hardly match his handsomeness.

Naturally, the upper right hand position is still vacant, waiting for the arrival of the envoy from Xiliang.

Fortunately, the Xiliang people did not keep the officials waiting for a long time. After a while, the Xiliang envoy Mahazang and Xiliang deputy envoy Gusa Heiyun had already arrived at the Guangming Palace to take their seats under the leadership of the eunuch.

Although the state banquet has the word "country" in it, it never talks about state affairs. It mainly eats and drinks, and also presents programs for the entertainment of foreign envoys.

After the chief and deputy envoys of Xiliang took their seats, His Majesty the Emperor came out soon. The officials got up and waited until His Majesty was seated before taking their seats. Xuanyuan Shao, the Commander of the Guards, appeared at this moment, standing behind His Majesty for a long time. Far away, like a statue frozen for thousands of years.

Zhao Xuan, Minister of Honglu Temple, finally found a chance to show up, so he was naturally attentive, and when the emperor was seated, he waved his hand and ordered the dancers to come up and perform dances.

The dancers are all graceful, like colorful clouds, all of them are covered with Mingluo, making people unable to see their faces clearly, but their clothes are quite gorgeous. During the dance, the willow waist twists, and occasionally reveals With a touch of snow-colored skin, the sound of drum music in the hall has already rang out in line with the dancing postures of the dancers.

She has a charming and charming figure, but her face is covered by the underworld, which naturally gives people a hazy feeling of looking at the moon in the flowers and water. Although all the dignitaries and dignitaries of the empire are present, everyone's house is indispensable. Concubine, but looking at these charming and charming bodies, many ministers still feel itchy and distracted.

Many ministers were smiling and looked elated, but Maha Zang seemed to have no interest in these beautiful dancers, and his expression was indifferent.

This is a state banquet set up for the Xiliang envoys. Naturally, a toast to Maha Tsang and Gusa Heiyun is a must. The prince is not here, and the King of Han is the leader. He first toasted to Maha Tsang, but Maha Tsang also toasted Welcome, after the toast of the King of Han, all the courtiers also toasted one by one. With one thought, he only hoped to get Maha Zang drunk in this Guangming Palace. If Maha Zang really got drunk in the Guangming Palace and showed some ugly looks, it would undoubtedly greatly damage the face of Xiliang Kingdom.

Originally, the officials were worried that Gusa Heiyun would persuade him by the side. Gusa Heiyun was over fifty years old and looked very stable. Zang never refused anyone who came, the courtiers took turns to fight, no one could tell how much wine Maha Zang drank, but Maha Zang was not even half drunk, his demeanor was calm, occasionally there was a look of disdain in his eyes , until this time, the officials finally understood that the capacity of this Maha Zang liquor is really huge, it may not be true that a thousand cups can't be poured, but a hundred cups can't be drunk, it is absolutely capable.

The emperor finally asked with a smile: "Prince Maha, how is the dancing posture of my Daqin dancer?"

Maha Zang said with a smile: "It's worth seeing!"

"Oh?" The emperor asked with a smile: "It seems that Prince Maha has a very high vision. These dancers are all my great beauty, and their dancing posture is the most beautiful dance in my Central Plains."

Moha Zang shook his head and smiled: "It's not because of high vision, nor is it that Qin's dancers and dancers are not good. It's just that you in Qin have a good saying, which is called beauty is in the eye of a beholder. In your eyes, your things are the most beautiful." Okay, but in the eyes of my Xiliang people, my Xiliang stuff is the best."

In fact, Chu Huan is not too far away from Maha Zang. Maha Zang's voice is full of air and loud. Although the sound of drums and music, Chu Huan can hear his words very clearly, and he can't help but smile. I remember clearly, these words were the words I taught Maha Zang the first time I saw him in the restaurant.

The emperor smiled faintly when he heard the words, and the Minister of Honglu Temple approached him and said respectfully: "My lord, I have also prepared a troupe of entertainers, which may be suitable for Prince Maha's taste!"

The emperor raised his hand and said, "Let them come up!"

Zhao Xuan hastily screened off the dancing girl, and clapped his hands. An official from Honglu Temple had already sent an acrobatic troupe. Soon, he saw a man in coarse clothes enter the hall first, and knelt down on the ground when he arrived. Said: "The grass people pay homage to my emperor, long live, long live, long live!"

In fact, if it was an official banquet within the Qin State, it would be impossible for such a troupe of acrobatics to enter the court to perform. To make the banquet a little bit more successful, I thought that the entertainment troupe might bring another excitement to the banquet, so I planned the entertainment troupe to perform.

The emperor just raised his hand to let this person stand up, and said in a low and majestic voice, "Today, the envoys from Xiliang are here, so you can present your housekeeping skills. As long as I am satisfied, you will be rewarded a lot!"

After Xie En, the master of the acrobatic troupe got up and waved to the outside, indicating that his acrobatic troupe would enter the hall to perform.

During the dinner, Chu Huan looked at the head of the class, and couldn't help being a little surprised. The head of the entertainment class turned out to be an acquaintance, and it was the neighbor Chang Yi who had met at the Huiyuan Inn before.

Chu Huan remembered that when he first entered the capital, he stayed temporarily at the Huiyuan Inn, and Chang Yi lived next door. In his memory, there was another thick black man with Chang Yi. It was just a one-sided relationship. Since then, he has never seen any trace of the black man, but Chang Yi took the initiative to contact him a few times, appearing very attentive.

Chu Huan remembered that Chang Yi seemed to claim to be a businessman who came to Beijing to do business from other places, but he didn't expect that the business he was doing turned out to be a performing arts troupe.

I also remembered that when I met Xuanyuan Shengcai in the restaurant, I saw Chang Yi had contact with a fat official. At this moment, I couldn't help but glance at Zhao Xuan, the minister of Honglu Temple. I finally remembered that that day The fat official I met in the restaurant turned out to be Mr. Zhao Xuanzhao.

No wonder he felt a little familiar when he first saw Zhao Xuan's back in the Imperial Study Room, but he couldn't remember where he saw it at that time. The official in charge was actually Zhao Xuan.

Thinking about it now, Chang Yi was with Zhao Xuan in the restaurant that day, naturally it was to win over the relationship with Zhao Xuan, and the purpose was naturally to be able to enter the palace to perform skills today.

It seems that this Chang Yi is not an ordinary brain, other entertainment troupes would never think of entering the palace to perform, but this Chang Yi has dredged up Zhao Xuan early and took such an opportunity. If the art team really satisfied the emperor at today's banquet, then the reward they got would naturally be a great fortune.

As big as the heart is, the road is as wide as possible. It seems that Chang Yi is well-informed about this person. As soon as he learned that the Xiliang mission was coming to Beijing, he knew that the emperor was going to hold a banquet in the palace, so he immediately used his wrist to clear up the Honglu Temple minister. Zhao Xuan, this person's vision is very far-sighted.
