100 million walk alone

Chapter 457: I can also throw dirty water

The banquet hall of Fengyue Villa was truly packed with guests.

Some dignitaries originally only needed to send a junior to send congratulatory gifts, but this morning's big news about Princess Changle's three-flower gathering made many bigwigs temporarily change their minds and come to congratulate her in person.

Looking around, the prime minister and the six ministers came to the door in person.

There were also nobles such as Duke Zhenguo and Marquis Shenwei who rarely appeared in public, also sitting on the seats.

In addition, the patriarchs of the five major cultivation families in Shendu, as well as several prominent bosses in the black market, also appeared.

"Pei Yiye, Master Pei is here!"

As the master of ceremonies shouted loudly, everyone looked at the man and three women coming out of the door.

It is difficult for these four monks who caused the Three Flowers Gathering not to attract everyone's attention.

Under the leadership of the old housekeeper, the four of them sat very carefully, and they were actually next to Duke Zhen Guo and Marquis Shenwei.

The tradition of high-end banquets in Dazhou is a table for two people, with a dance floor performance in the middle, and tables and chairs on the left and right sides of the dance floor. Pei Yin and Black Rose sat together, Jade Sword Immortal and Rebecca sat together, and to Pei Yin's left were Duke Zhen Guo and Marquis Shenwei.

Everyone could see that Pei Yiye was a high-profile guest.

And the three women around him, although they are concubines and maids, possess something that symbolizes the VIPs of the temple-the token of communication with the gods.

People who possess the token of communication with the gods are regarded as distinguished guests even in temples, and Fengyue Villa is naturally treated as an honored guest as well.

Everyone is very understanding and understands each other tacitly. There is no such thing as "How can a maid sit at the same table with the Duke and the Marquis?" without blinking.

"Master Pei is blessed with three beauties. He is so blessed." The Duke of Zhenguo, who seemed to be in his prime, started touting his business.

"What the Duke said is very true. The talent of the man and the beauty of the woman are enviable to others." The Shenweihou, who looked like a middle-aged brother of a fierce general, was not as brave as the legend, and he could also say a few polite words.

"You two are so complimentary." Mr. Pei came prepared and started his performance: "The female appearance is real, but the male is not considered a man. Pei doesn't even have a weapon at hand, and he has nothing. Ashamed, ashamed.”

The old and cunning Duke of Zhenguo heard the hidden meaning: "Master Pei, there are many good things in Dongshi. If you don't mind, I will take you to Dongshi someday and pick out a useful treasure."

The so-called East Market is actually an elegant way of saying "black market".

At a banquet of this level, no one would talk about the black market.

The drama that Pei Yin was looking forward to appeared, and he looked flattered: "How can this be so embarrassing? How dare you trouble your lord."

The Duke of Zhen was very enthusiastic: "Master Pei, if you refuse, you will be looking down on me."

Pei Yin climbed up the pole and said, "I'm here for the first time, and I'm just about to ask my father-in-law, which is the best store in the East Market?"

The Duke of Zhen said: "Zhenbao Pavilion, Duobao Tower, and Xinglong Pawnshop all have good things. It depends on what Mr. Pei needs."

"Xinglong Pawnshop?" Pei Yin looked like he had never seen the world before: "Isn't the pawnshop just for pawning things? Can you also buy weapons?"

"The rules of the pawn shop are that if a pawn is not redeemed for a hundred years, it will become a perfect pawn. Those things that have not been redeemed for hundreds of years can naturally be purchased by future generations. However, that shopkeeper Miao does not do business at a loss. If he wants to buy from Xinglong Pawnshop To buy good things, you have to spend a lot of money." Zhen Guogong gave a brief introduction.

"Who is Shopkeeper Miao?" Pei Yin asked.

"My name is Miao Lihui, the owner of Xinglong Pawnshop." After Zhen Guogong said this, he saw an incredible scene.

"Ahhh!"

Pei Yin jumped up in shock, attracting the attention of all the guests in the banquet hall.

Then he looked in disbelief: "My lord, is the person you just mentioned really called Miao Lihui?"

Duke Zhen Guo didn't understand the situation: "Exactly, could it be that Master Pei and Shopkeeper Miao are old acquaintances?"

Pei Yin was even more shocked: "That shopkeeper Miao, is he a demon monk?"

The Duke of Zhenguo replied: "That's right."

"Oh, no!"

Pei Yin lost his composure on the spot: "No, this is impossible!" The Shenwei Hou next to him was confused: "Why is Master Pei so surprised?"

Pei Yin even lost his composure: "I made a mistake. Maybe I made a mistake. There are inevitably people with the same name in the world."

Marquis Shenwei said displeasedly: "Why do you need to whet your appetite? The luncheon hasn't started yet and everyone is idle. Speak out boldly and I will analyze it for you."

"In that case, I'll tell you straight." Pei Yin reluctantly said in a loud voice: "To be honest, I am from Dongsheng Shenzhou and I know a little bit about the history of China."

"Five hundred years ago, China was ruled by the demon clan, and the Ten Thousand Monster Empire dominated China for more than a thousand years."

"In that era, the demon tribe used the human race as food, and we, the human race, were miserable."

Pei Yin deliberately chewed the rations very hard, arousing the common hatred of most of the human monks present, and then slowly unfolded: "I traveled to China in the past and met an old man who survived five hundred years ago. I heard a lot about that time. Allusions."

"According to what the old man said, the imperial clan of the Ten Thousand Demon Empire belongs to the Cingma clan, and all of them are named Miao."

"When the Ten Thousand Monster Empire was destroyed, only one of the demon clan's Highnesses escaped."

"His Royal Highness, his name is Miao Renfeng. Back then, he often used the pseudonym Miao Lihui to visit China incognito."

"I didn't expect, I didn't expect that he would come to Dazhou and play with everyone in Shendu."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

The amount of information exposed by Master Pei is really huge!

The last sentence, "To play with you all in the palm of my hand," was obviously rhythmic and aroused a certain emotion in everyone's hearts.

"Master Pei, are you serious about this?" Marquis Shenwei rolled up his sleeves angrily.

"It's absolutely true." Pei Yin said, taking a step back and saying, "However, there are many people with the same name and surname in the world. Maybe I made a mistake."

"Does anyone really know what His Highness the Demon Clan looked like back then?" Shenwei Hou asked.

"He is a handsome young man. He looks about seventeen or eighteen years old. He has good facial features and a black mole on the left corner of his mouth." Pei Yin said seriously: "Miao Da, the shopkeeper of Xinglong Pawn Shop, I think he is a lot older. He should not be that person." His Highness the Demon Clan.”

"No, he is!"

Suddenly, a grumpy military attache stood up and slapped the table: "I have been to Xinglong Pawnshop, and the shopkeeper Miao told me exactly the same thing as Master Pei. It was so cool to see that Shenzhou Xizuo was lurking in my city. !”

"General Ma, calm down. The Ten Thousand Monsters Empire has been destroyed for more than five hundred years. Even if Miao Lihui's identity is true, he is just an exile." The person who spoke this time was the central priest Lei Wanjun.

The priest seemed to know Miao Lihui's true identity, and there was a hint of excuse in his words: "All the temples are inclusive, and there are many people who have perished in the nine continents of the earth, working for our temple. If Miao Lihui changes his past, all the gods will The temple also welcomes you.”

General Ma's violent temper is not an exaggeration: "But he is not a clergyman. He has been lurking in the black market... the East Market for almost a hundred years. God knows what this guy's intentions are."

As he said that, he looked at the Minister of Punishment opposite: "Li Shangshu, what does your Punishment Department do for food? You sneaked in like this and didn't check it?"

Li Shangshu almost cried. The so-called Highness of the Demon Clan was just a one-sided statement from Pei Yiye. Do you believe this?

He had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "General Ma, today is the princess's birthday. Let's put it aside for now. Li will definitely conduct a strict investigation tomorrow."

Everyone else also understood that it was really not appropriate to talk about this at the princess's birthday banquet.

What Pei Yin wanted was this effect. He didn't expect to overturn Miao Lihui with just one word, so he planted a seed first.

None of the guests present has a fuel-efficient lamp, so sooner or later that seed will take root and sprout.

Anyway, Master Pei was cruel. Even if he couldn't kill the Nine-Life Demon King today, he would still be disgusted to death.

Pei Zhenren, who has been slandered countless times, has now developed a new skill - I can also throw slander.
