The Heavens Begin with Detective Di Renjie

Chapter 315
Shangshufu, Banquet
Although Wang Shichong is dominant in Luoyang, he has never proclaimed himself emperor, and has always regarded himself as the Shangshu of the old Sui Dynasty, so his mansion is also called Shangshufu.

At this moment, two banquets are held in the spacious hall of Shangshu Mansion, which are arranged at the south end of the hall.

On the east side of this gorgeous hall, more than a dozen men and women who looked like musicians were sitting and waiting, obviously they were the accompaniment team for Shang Xiufang.

Including the serving maids and servants, although there are nearly 50 people in the hall, most of them are strictly quiet. Even if there are people talking and laughing during the banquet, they are cautious, with a kind of official entertainment.

Wang Shichong himself also sat in the banquet, patiently waiting for the rightful lord Li Shimin to appear.

Before the banquet started, he had already sent someone to Luoyuan to report, but he did not want Li Shimin and Wang Xuanying to pay a visit to the Jingnian Temple and never returned.

In desperation, he had no choice but to order someone to go to the Jingnian Temple again, and at the same time postpone the opening time of the banquet.

Count the time, it's time to come now!

Wang Shichong was estimating the time in his heart, when there were already steady and powerful footsteps outside.

After a while, Li Shimin and the people of Tiance Mansion entered the hall accompanied by Wang Xuanying.

Seeing this, Wang Shichong rushed to greet him, bowed his head, and shouted respectfully: "My servant Wang Shichong, welcome His Royal Highness King Qin!"

Li Shimin stretched out his hand to help him up, and said apologetically: "This king forgot the time for a while, Mr. Jiaowang has been waiting for a long time!"

Afterwards, he looked at the people in the hall again, and said softly: "I have kept you waiting for a long time."

For a while, everyone said that it was okay, and at the same time, they were impressed by Li Shimin's approachable behavior.

No wonder it is widely rumored that the King of Qin is as magnanimous as a valley, seeing him today, it is indeed so!

"Is Mr. Shen still unwilling to show up?"

Wang Shichong glanced at the generals accompanying Li Shimin, but he still didn't see Shen Youzhi, and felt a little regretful.

"Mr. Shen still has important things to do, so he can't get away." Li Shimin explained in this way.

In fact, he doesn't know where Shen Youzhi is now, he only knows that the other party has entered Luoyang City one step ahead.

After all, the other party is only cooperating with Tiance Mansion, not a subordinate, so naturally he can't interfere with the other party's actions.

"That being the case, please sit down first, Your Highness and colleagues!"

Seeing that it was almost time, Wang Shichong quickly asked everyone to sit down and prepared to start the dinner.

Li Shimin nodded slightly, and then sat down one by one with the generals under his command, ready to watch Shang Xiufang's rare song and dance.

Luoyang City, the stronghold of the Yingui Sect

Not only is Wang Shichong's Shangshu Mansion holding a night banquet, but there is also a "grand party" being held in this little-known secret stronghold.

It's just that those who participated in this banquet were not literati, let alone princes and generals, but demonic heroes who frightened the people of Jianghu!
And the place where this meeting was held was not a dark and quiet secret room, let alone a dark cave, but a bright, bright, antique, exquisite and elegant attic.

The various layouts in the building are also exquisite to the extreme, which is not much better than Wang Shichong's Shangshu Mansion. The only shortcoming is that there are no singing and dancing to add to the fun.

Under the light, the spacious lobby is as bright as day.

The "Empress of the Yin" Zhu Yuyan sat on the high platform, looking down at the powerful men from all walks of life who came to the meeting, any single one of them would be enough to shake the entire Jianghu.

Sitting on the table on the left side of her are Zhao De, the "Devil Commander" of the Demon Xiangzong, Zuo Youxian, the "Ziwu Sword" of the True Daoist, Pichen, the "Demon Dao" of the Laojunguan, and the Huajian Sect. "Passionate son" Hou Xibai.

On her right side, "Shadow Assassin" Yang Xuyan of Butian Dao, "Fat Jia" An Long and Fu Gongyou of Tianlian Sect, Bi Shouxuan and Hou Hou of Yin Gui Sect, and "Tianjun" Xi of Mieqing Dao. Ying, Xu Liuzong and others also took their seats in turn.

Except for the absence of the "evil king" Shi Zhixuan and people from the extreme evil sect, it can be said that all the elites of the two factions and six paths gathered here, occupying more than half of the entire evil path.

"Empress Yin, since everyone has arrived, should we start the election of the leader of the Holy Gate?"

Under the stage, "Magic Commander" Zhao Deyan couldn't hold back the first, stood up and said.

His figure was tall and thin, his skin was crystal clear like jade, his face was pretty but very pale, and his pair of cold eyes were always narrowed into a slit, making him even more ruthless.

Among the two factions and six ways, apart from Zhu Yuyan and Shi Zhixuan, Zhao Deyan is the most powerful person.

Moreover, the Moxiang Sect has been operating in Turkic for many years, and it is no longer what it used to be, and its power is only slightly inferior to that of the Yingui Sect.

It can be said that besides Zhu Yuyan, he is the most qualified person to compete for the throne of the new leader of the Holy Gate.

"Humph!"

A fat man with a big belly suddenly sneered and said ironically:

"Why is the commander-in-chief so anxious? Could it be that he can't wait to ascend the throne of the leader of the Holy Gate?"

This person is the "Fat Jia" Anlong of Tianlianzong.

He is a die-hard fan of Shi Zhixuan and has always hoped that Shi Zhixuan can unify the Holy Sect, so naturally he can't understand Zhao Deyan's impatient behavior.

Zhao Deyan glanced at An Long lightly, and said coldly: "Even if I, Zhao Deyan, are weak, I'm afraid it won't be your turn, Fatty An!"

Tianlianzong puts business as the most important thing, and martial arts is just an auxiliary, so he doesn't pay attention to Anlong at all.

"Hehe." An Long sneered again, the fat on his fat cheeks trembling.

"I, An Long, have always been self-aware. Unlike some people, toads want to eat swan meat!"

"Bastard!" Hearing that the other party compared himself to a "toad", Zhao Deyan was furious, and almost fought with An Long.

Fortunately, Zhu Yuyan stepped forward in time and stopped the verbal confrontation between the two——

"All right!"

"The Holy Gate Conference has its own rules, how can it be a place to show quick words?!"

Seeing her voice, both Zhao Deyan and An Long shut up wisely and did not continue to pester.

Although the Yingui sect's strength has been seriously injured, it is still the number one sect in terms of strength, and Zhu Yuyan's martial arts is also the number one on the scene.

In any case, she still has to give her face.

"The magic commander-in-chief just said that the person has expired, I'm afraid it's too early to say!" Zhu Yuyan glanced at Zhao Deyan with a deep expression.

Zhao Deyan's heart trembled, and he pretended to be calm and asked, "What does Queen Yin mean by this?"

"My meaning is also simple, that is, the members of the Saint Extreme Sect have not yet arrived!" Zhu Yuyan said very calmly.

Hearing this, Zhao Deyan's expression changed several times almost indistinctly, and finally returned to calm.

"The members of the Holy Extreme Sect are free, so it's only natural that the Yin Queen can't find them." Zhao Deyan said.

"Hmph!" Zhu Yuyan snorted coldly, and said, "I'm afraid some people don't want them to be found!"

Zhou Laotan and Jin Huanzhen of the Xieji sect fell into the hands of Zhao Deyan. Chang Zhen and Fanan had already reported this matter to her, so she tested Zhao Deyan many times.

"I really can't understand what Queen Yin said!" Zhao Deyan remained indifferent.

He was sure that Zhu Yuyan could not know the whereabouts of Jin Huanzhen and Zhou Laotan, as long as he refused to admit it, the other party would have nothing to do.

Just when Zhao Deyan was full of confidence, a joking voice suddenly came from outside the building——

"The magic commander doesn't know, but I, Shi, know it very well!"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the building had different expressions.

Stone House!
He even came!

Zhu Yuyan clenched her hands tightly, forcibly suppressing the killing intent in her heart, and did not let her mood get out of control.

On the other side, Hou Xibai, who is romantic and suave like a wealthy son, and Yang Xuyan, who is cold and deep like a dead man, are a little flustered. They didn't expect their "mentor" to appear suddenly.

After being disrupted by Shi Zhixuan, Zhao Deyan's expression also changed suddenly, and he was even more uneasy.

Only An Long looked normal, as if the current situation had already been expected by him.
