Chapter 847 Birthday Party, Langya Ranking Master Showdown

Xie Yu's family, plus the invited guests, all sat down.

Naturally, there is a reason for this seat. The hosts of the seats, Xie Yu, Marquis of Ningguo, and Princess Liyang, are naturally the principal seats in the middle.

Sitting on the left side below is another pair of Xiao Jingrui's parents, Zhuo Dingfeng and his wife from Tianquan Villa, below them are Zhuo Qingyao and Xie Qi, behind them are Xiao Jingrui and Xie Bi, on this side are Xie Bi Zhuo family.

The first seat on the right is Commander Meng Zhimeng. As the Commander of the Forbidden Army, his official status is no worse than that of Xie Yu. After him is Xia Dong. Xia Dong is the envoy of Xuanjing Division. The status is not low.

After that came Mei Changsu, Yan Yujin, and Zhou Chengongyu, none of them had entered official positions, and Mei Changsu was well-known anyway, and he was 'the king'.

As for Zhou Chen and Gong Yu, in terms of status, they could only sit at the bottom.

There is a servant girl kneeling behind everyone, ready to pour wine and change dishes at any time.

Zhou Chen doesn't care much about these things, anyway, he is not the protagonist today, as long as he is a handsome young man quietly and waits for the development of things quietly.

As the banquet began, Xie Yu, the host, stood up first.

"Little son, Chen, you are here, Xie is ashamed and dare not take it, a glass of water and wine, a little respect, I will do it first."

"Please!"

After finishing speaking, he raised his head and drank the wine in the glass. Everyone else also raised their glasses, but Xie Qi and Gong Yu were the only ones who drank tea instead of wine.

Xie Yu sat down slowly, and said with a smile on his face: "Since it's a private banquet, everyone, please don't be too polite. Xie is not very good at entertaining guests. Please feel free to do so."

Immediately afterwards, he looked at Meng Zhi: "Commander Meng, for this first glass of wine, I want to respect you first."

Meng Zhi holds the cup in both hands: "Thank you, Lord Marquis, please."

"Please!"

In the original plot, in order to test Zhuo Dingfeng's swordsmanship, Xia Dong deliberately proposed to compete with Zhuo Dingfeng, and the two had a fight at the banquet.

However, Xia Dong is already a member of Zhou Chen and the others, and he is very clear about everything. He knows that Zhuo Dingfeng is the murderer of the inner prison murder case, so naturally he will not deliberately propose a competition.

After drinking with Meng Zhi, Xie Yu looked at Xia Dong again: "Lord Xia Dong, I respect you for this second glass of wine, thank you for being able to take time out to attend the children's birthday party when you are so busy, please .”

Xia Dong raised his wine glass: "Thank you, Lord Marquis, please."

At this time, Princess Liyang, who was in charge, leaned next to Xie Yu and whispered something in his ear, Xie Yu kept nodding.

"Everyone, an elegant banquet cannot be without joy. There is Gong Yu from Miaoyinfang here. Why don't you invite her to play a song to wash away the worldly dust of our generation?"

Then Xie Yu smiled and looked at Zhou Chen and Gong Yu.

This was agreed before coming here, so Zhou Chen didn't think there was anything wrong, he nodded to Gong Yu.

Gong Yu glanced at Zhou Chen first, then bowed gracefully, and said, "Your Majesty loves you. Although Gong Yu is not talented, he is willing to help everyone."

Seeing that Gong Yu agreed, everyone laughed and applauded.

The servants quickly brought out an antique Guqin, Gong Yu walked to the Guqin and sat down slowly.

"Present a song called Fengqiuhuang, please appreciate it."

Then Gong Yu started to play, Feng Qiuhuang is an ancient song, even those who are not very good at temperament have heard of this song.

The song "Feng Qiuhuang" is very special. Some people may hear sadness, while others may hear joy. Different people have different feelings.

Gong Yu's piano skills are very good, and it is easy for people who like rhythm to immerse themselves in it, just like the Princess Liyang sitting on the main seat at this time.

I saw her expression suddenly became very sad, and tears flowed down uncontrollably as she played.

And Xie Yu, who was beside her, obviously had a bad face. He had been with Princess Liyang for more than 20 years, and he knew the person beside her very well.

So he knew very well why Liyang shed tears when listening to the song, the tears were not shed for him.

A strong person like him would be so conniving only if he really fell in love with Li Yang, and often pretended to be deaf and dumb, because he wanted to keep Princess Li Yang by his side forever.

The sound of the piano stopped, and everyone remained silent for a long time.

In the end, it was Mei Changsu who broke the silence first, and said, "Miss Gong's song "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix" is really emotional and heart-stirring."

While speaking, he looked at Princess Liyang on the main seat with far-reaching eyes.

Xie Yu's complexion became even uglier, and he didn't want to be so embarrassed, so he said: "Miss Gong is really talented, but today is a happy day, it is really inappropriate to listen to sad songs. I heard that Chen Yu The young master's poems are unique, such a happy day, I wonder if Mr. Chen is willing to write a poem?"

Zhou Chen was also surprised to see that Xie Yu brought the topic to himself.

Xiao Jingrui hurriedly excused Zhou Chen: "Father, this poem can't be written in a short while. Brother Yu has already given me the Feihong Sword as a gift. How can I ask him to write poems for me again? Let Gong Yu Let's play another cheerful tune, girl."

Xie Yu didn't listen, he regarded Mei Changsu as an enemy, and Zhou Chen was on good terms with Mei Changsu, so he didn't have any good feelings for Zhou Chen.

"Mr. Chen, although I am a warrior, I have read a few poems by you. They are quite good. I believe that Mr. Chen's on-site creative ability must be better. Don't you think so, Mr. Chen?"

There was a flash of light in Zhou Chen's eyes. Xie Yu didn't want to see Princess Liyang sad, so he led the fire to him. He really had sinister intentions.

"Since Mr. Xie Hou said so, let's think about it."

Only then did Xie Yu say with satisfaction: "Mr. Chen, don't worry. Writing poems and lyrics requires careful consideration. Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry."

After saying this, he was about to call everyone to continue drinking, but suddenly a young man hurried over, shouting as he ran.

"Lord Hou, Lord Hou, Lord Benedict, there are, there are guests, guests."

Seeing the servants rushing in in front of so many guests, Xie Yu shouted angrily, "Who are you? Didn't you see that the Marquis is entertaining guests? Is it proper to be flustered? Didn't I tell you earlier?" Are you going to close the door to thank the guests?"

The little servant didn't dare to lift his head in fear, he lowered his head and said, "You guys can't stop them, they've already come in..."

Before he could speak, a deep male voice suddenly sounded.

"I have an old contract with you, brother Zhuo, why do you refuse to come? Could it be that you stayed in Ningguohou's mansion to avoid the challenge from below?"

I saw a grey-haired, but muscular, burly man, holding a sword in his hand, walking into the hall at a leisurely pace.

Behind him was a man and a woman, both dressed luxuriously, and the woman was still covering her face, so it was obvious at a glance that her identities were not simple.

As soon as Xie Yu saw the man talking, he quickly stood up and shouted, "Lord Yue!"

Xie Yu's face was gloomy, and he took a few steps forward, while Zhuo Dingfeng and the others also stood up and looked at the person coming.

"Lord Yue, do you know that the place where you are standing now is the private residence of the Marquis, and you are so arrogant and rude when you break in without authorization, who do you think you are? Could it be that you are so ignorant of etiquette in the Southern Chu court? ?"

Yue Xiuze hadn't spoken yet, but the luxuriously dressed young man behind him came out yelling.

"I'm wronged, I'm wronged, I'm wronged, Yue Xiuze had already resigned from the position of commander in front of the palace half a month ago, he's just a man in white clothes, and he's reckless; if Lord Xie has any dissatisfaction with him, just settle it , but don’t casually refer to our Southern Chu court.”

Xie Yu stared at the young man coldly: "His Royal Highness, you are considered a member of the Southern Chu court, and you also rushed in. Don't tell me you don't understand etiquette?"

Yu Wenxuan, the king of Southern Chu Ling, had an innocent expression on his face: "I didn't rush in, let me declare first that we are not together with Yue Xiuze. Xiao Wang heard that today is Young Master Xiao's birthday, so he thought he was an acquaintance, so Prepare a small gift and come to celebrate the birthday, and please thank the Marquis by the way."

Xie Yu's face was gloomy, and he said coldly: "You are not welcome to wait for unexpected guests in the residence of the Marquis, please leave as soon as possible, otherwise, don't blame the Marquis for being rude."

He could tell at a glance that Yue Xiuze and Yu Wenxuan were not friendly, so he didn't want to give them a chance to speak, and wanted to force them back directly.

But Yue Xiuze didn't give him any face at all, but looked at Zhuo Dingfeng who was next to Xie Yu, and said: "It's the rules of the world to challenge in person, so I deliberately resigned from the imperial post, if brother Zhuo wants to evade, at least Let me put it mildly, letting others take care of you like this is really not the brother Zhuo I know, is it possible that you are no longer a member of the Jianghu since you became relatives with Master Xie?"

How could a man like Zhuo Dingfeng bear such unceremonious cynicism, he took a step forward and was about to speak, but Xie Yu grabbed him, he gave Xie Yu face, He could only stop with an expression of resentment.

Xie Yu whispered in his ear to calm him down. He felt that Meng Zhi and Xia Dong came here to investigate the murder of the inner prisoner, so he didn't want Zhuo Dingfeng to take action.

Because Yue Xiuze is also a strong player in Langya master list, although Zhuo Dingfeng ranks higher, but if they fight, they must go all out, it is easy for Meng Zhi and Xia Dong to see the flaws, so he doesn't want Zhuo Dingfeng at all shot.

Seeing that Zhuo Dingfeng remained silent for a long time, Yue Xiuze took a few steps forward and performed a quack etiquette.

"Brother Zhuo, please."

After hearing Xie Yu's words, Zhuo Dingfeng's face was full of confusion. To be honest, he wanted to take up this challenge, but Xie Yu was right. Once he fought with Yue Xiuze, he couldn't hide his sword edge. At that time, it will definitely be exposed in front of Meng Zhi and Xia Dong, and they will think of him as the murderer of the inner prison murder case.

Meng Zhi winked at Xia Dong, Xia Dong nodded, and was about to speak, but Zhuo Dingfeng spoke first.

"Brother Yue, today is the child's birthday, can we make another date?"

Yue Xiuze flatly refused, "No."

Zhuo Dingfeng asked puzzledly: "Why?"

In his opinion, left and right are just a change of time, why doesn't Yue Xiuze agree?

Yue Xiuze said in a deep voice: "My Majesty only allows me to resign for half a year, and within half a year I can freely look for opponents outside, so I don't have much time."

Zhuo Dingfeng said: "Then how about we change it to tomorrow? But in one day, you won't be in such a hurry, will you?"

But Yue Xiuze said: "The night is long and full of dreams. Who knows what will happen tonight, who knows if there will be tomorrow. Since we have met now, why not end it immediately? A martial arts competition is not a bad thing. Could it be possible to ruin your son's life?" Is the banquet not going to happen?"

"Then according to what you mean, Brother Yue, the end is going to be done at this moment?"

"good."

Xie Yu saw that Zhuo Dingfeng had loosened up, and shouted angrily, "Presumptuous, today's children's birthday banquet, there are so many distinguished guests, how can you allow you to act wild here."

Meng Zhi suddenly interjected at this moment: "Master Xie, this day's battle against spring and clouds is not something you can just watch, but I don't mind, everyone can also watch the battle, Mr. Xia, Mr. Chen, what do you think?" ?”

Xia Dong immediately smiled and said, "I am also looking forward to having this blessing."

Zhou Chen also said with a smile: "Tianquan Yuyun is a master ahead of me, so of course I'm interested."

Xie Yu snorted coldly, "Of course the three of you don't mind, it's just that there are female family members present today, so it might be inappropriate to unleash your weapons."

"Come on!"

"exist."

In an instant, a group of soldiers in armor rushed over.

Seeing this scene, Yue Xiuze said in a deep voice: "Brother Zhuo, whether I'm here to challenge or to make trouble, you should know best, whether to accept the challenge, please give me an accurate answer."

Xie Yu roared unceremoniously: "Get out."

The government soldiers immediately put their weapons on their hands, and approached Yue Xiuze and the others slowly.

Seeing that he was about to make a move, Zhuo Dingfeng couldn't bear it anymore, he yelled loudly: "Stop."

Then he turned around and looked at Xie Yu: "Brother Xie, forgive me, after all, I am a member of the rivers and lakes. Brother Yue is in the Langya list with me. I cannot refuse his challenge."

Xie Yu eagerly grabbed Zhuo Dingfeng's hand, and his eyes kept indicating: "Today is not suitable."

Zhuo Dingfeng understood what he meant, and said in a deep voice, "Brother Xie, don't worry, I will handle it properly."

Xie Yu also understood what he meant, so he said, "Okay, brother Zhuo, you have to be very careful."

Following Zhuo Dingfeng's agreement, the birthday banquet was suspended, and both Yue Xiuze and Zhuo Dingfeng came outside the house, fighting with swords facing each other, staring at each other.

Gong Yu had already retreated to Zhou Chen's side, and Zhou Chen whispered to her, "Be careful later."

Gong Yu nodded, she knew that after this competition was over, it was time for her to appear.

Yue Xiuze and Zhuo Dingfeng finally made their move. As the challenger, Yue Xiuze took the lead in attacking, his sword was like the wind, and he killed Zhuo Dingfeng in the blink of an eye.

"Clang clang clang..."

The two quickly exchanged dozens of moves. Yue Xiuze attacked fiercely, but Zhuo Dingfeng didn't fight back at all. He just defended blindly and didn't attack at all. An angry Yue Xiuze yelled loudly, wanting Zhuo Dingfeng to fight back.

Although Zhuo Dingfeng was two places higher than Yue Xiuze, his strength was not necessarily higher than Yue Xiuze's, so he was aggrieved by his defense.

After all, he is also a master of Langya's master list, and he also has arrogance in his heart. If Xie Yu hadn't instructed him, he probably wouldn't have held back at all.

Finally, under Yue Xiuze's aggressive offensive, he couldn't help resisting. He quickly used his unique move and was about to counterattack, but when he saw Xie Yu's eyes when he made the move, his heart tightened. Finish.

Yue Xiuze also seized the opportunity and quickly attacked Zhuo Dingfeng. At the last moment, Zhuo Dingfeng changed his sword move and slammed into Yue Xiuze's sword.

"Shh!"

Yue Xiuze's sword hit Zhuo Dingfeng's wrist, Zhuo Dingfeng couldn't control the sword, fell to the ground, covered his wrist, and Yue Xiuze stopped his attack in time.

Seeing that Zhuo Dingfeng was injured, both Zhuo Qingyao and Xiao Jingrui exclaimed nervously, rushing forward eagerly to check on Zhuo Qingyao's injury.

Seeing this scene, Xie Yu heaved a sigh of relief, as long as he didn't expose it in front of Meng Zhi and Xia Dong, as for Zhuo Dingfeng's injury, he didn't take it too seriously.

Although Yue Xiuze won, he was not happy at all, instead he asked Zhuo Dingfeng in dissatisfaction: "Brother Zhuo, why are you doing this?"

Of course he could see that Zhuo Dingfeng did it on purpose, this was not the matchup he wanted, so naturally he couldn't be happy.
