Three days later.
A letter was placed in front of the four people.
Feng Bei, the master of Xuyu Palace, opened the letter. After reading it, he looked around, took a deep breath and said, "The Marquis has agreed, and he will come here in person."
Mi Qi, Ouyang Heng and Mian Cheng were all a little surprised.
Mi Qi has been outside for the past few days and came in now to deliver a letter. The letter was placed in a bamboo tube and sealed with fire paint. Without permission, she could not read the letter in advance, so she did not know what was written inside. .
"He came by himself, what will happen to Yizhou?"
Mickey blurted out.
Without Luo Fengtang in Yizhou, no one can say what will happen there.
Once there is trouble over there, who has such great prestige and ability to solve the trouble quickly?
Others may be able to solve it, but it will take a long time.
The most lacking thing in Yizhou is time, and nothing can be delayed.
"The arrangement of the Marquis is so unpredictable that I can't figure it out."
Feng Bei cupped his hands toward the void.
These words left Mickey speechless for a moment.
This Fengbei sect leader is really a good judge of situations. Before Luo Fengtang showed up, he was already respectful, as if he was Luo Fengtang's most loyal "follower".
"When does the letter say you'll be here?"
Mickey pursed her lips and said.
"As soon as the letter was sent, the people set off. According to the speed of the war horses, it should take half a day."
Feng Bei stretched out his fingers and pinched them to calculate.
Even if the method of changing horses midway was calculated, it would still take that long for Luo Fengtang to rush over from Yizhou.
"Everyone, just wait a moment. The banquet in the west building has been held. Let's go over to eat and drink."
Feng Bei stretched out his hand and invited warmly.
Both Mian Cheng and Ouyang Heng's expressions were slightly ugly, but they quickly disappeared.
In the past two days, they kept eating and drinking, and the banquets were all kinds of delicious food arranged by Feng Bei.
It's absolutely heartbreaking.
They ate until they almost wanted to vomit, but because Feng Bei was too enthusiastic, they were embarrassed to express their unwillingness to eat or drink more.
Among them, only Mickey was truly hungry and had a look of joy on his face.
"Okay, then I would like to thank Sect Master Feng for the hospitality."
Seeing the smile on Mi Qi's face, Ouyang Heng finally swallowed the words that came to his mouth.
He couldn't eat it himself, so he couldn't stop Mickey from eating it.
They followed Feng Bei to the West Tower again.
Then I saw two tables of food in the private room in the west building.
"This is specially prepared for you. Do you think there is anything else you need to add?"
Feng Bei said with a smile.
On the table were two bowls of clear porridge and some side dishes, which were not greasy at all.
"This is the best."
Ouyang Heng's eyes lit up. This Feng Bei was really smart. He actually guessed what they wanted and prepared it in advance.
"Miss Mi, what do you find dissatisfactory about this table?"
Another table is prepared for Mickey, where there are exquisite wine and food.
This wine is also a flower wine that women drink. You won't get drunk after drinking it. When you pour it into the cup, the fragrance of flowers will hit your nostrils.
"Felting the sect leader has already spent a lot of money, how can this be so embarrassing?"
A dimple appeared on Mickey's face, and her smile was a little shy.
But Feng Bei did not look down upon her at all, probably because this Mi Qi was not an ordinary person. She was the deputy commander of the Yin Guard, and her ranking within the Yin Guard was still higher than Ouyang Heng. Such a person would be a little girl who was inexperienced in the world. ?
Anyone who thinks that Mickey is innocent and has undue thoughts about her will have no idea how miserable his death will be in the end.
"It's okay, this is what I should do. Our Xuyu Palace has always had a good relationship with the imperial court. The palace also has many items given by important figures in the imperial court, and even the handwriting of Grandpa Taizu."
Feng Bei smiled very "honestly".
"It is precisely because Xuyu Palace has always abided by the laws of the imperial court that the Marquis is willing to come and become the sect leader. The predecessors planted trees and future generations can enjoy the shade. Whatever the cause, there will be the effect."
These words were quite sincere. Mickey sat at the table and picked up the chopsticks.
At this time, Feng Bei bowed his hands and said, "Everyone, I still have something to do. I'll leave for a while. If I have something to tell the disciples outside the door, they will send a message to me."
"Master Feng, go and get busy. We can just eat by ourselves."
Feng Bei turned around and left, closing the door quietly, moving very gently as he left.
Waiting until Feng Bei left, Mian Cheng took a sip of porridge and then sighed slightly: "Feng Bei is really not an ordinary person. He doesn't look like a warrior at all, but a kind-hearted businessman."
"A harmonious atmosphere is not conducive to practicing martial arts, let alone becoming a martial arts master. I think Feng Bei's temper will prevent his martial arts from reaching a higher level." Ouyang Heng thought thoughtfully.
"Everyone has his or her own way of living. I don't think there's anything wrong with Feng Bei's way of living. Feng Bei himself doesn't have a high level of martial arts talent, so it's not a bad idea to take this path."
Mickey took a sip of flower wine and ate the roast goose.
"Feng Bei is right, but what Xuyu Palace needs now is not a well-rounded businessman, but what it needs most is a martial arts master who can carry a cauldron."
Ouyang Heng was talking while drinking porridge. As a martial arts practitioner, he had relatively straightforward ideas.
"Martial arts masters are rare. Don't worry about it. Eat your porridge."
Mi Qi glared, then concentrated on eating and stopped talking to Ouyang Heng.
This man was fine in other aspects, but he was too serious and liked to argue. I talked to him too much and argued back and forth over trivial matters. It would be better to end the conversation as soon as possible.
Mian Cheng buried his head in his porridge and didn't say anything, letting them gossip.
After eating greasy food for several days, I finally tried to eat something light, but I didn’t waste the time.
…
Night falls.
The sound of horse hooves finally came from outside the gate of Xuyu Palace.
Several horses roared and quickly approached Xuyu Palace.
Immediately, the gate of Xuyu Palace opened. Feng Bei, Mian Cheng, Mi Qi, Ouyang Heng, the left and right guardians of Xuyu Palace, the left guardian Wu Shang, the right guardian Ouyang Ming and others stood at the door to greet them.
After the horses screamed, the five horses slowly stopped, and Luo Fengtang got off the horse.
He strode forward.
Feng Bei immediately saluted with the etiquette of a person in the world.
"Greetings to the Marquis."
The people behind followed Feng Bei and shouted.
"Master Feng, there is no need for such a big pomp. Let the brothers do whatever they want. Let's go in and find a place to discuss."
Luo Fengtang took a breath and waved his hands.
He had never seen Feng Bei before, but with just one glance, he could confirm Feng Bei's identity.
"Okay, Wu Shang, you and the others can go back. I will take the Marquis to the west building."
Feng Bei didn't show much pretense, but quickly started making arrangements.
Before he understood Luo Fengtang's true temperament, he would have all the necessary pomp and circumstance, so as not to neglect Luo Fengtang.
However, after listening to Luo Fengtang's words, he understood that Luo Fengtang was a cheerful person and did not need such ostentation.
