"Forget it, let's deal with the matter at hand first before talking about anything else."
Lu Feng stretched himself. He was going to Zuixian Tower tonight to talk to the people from the sect.
Lu Feng also had a headache regarding the martial arts matter, but now he had other ideas.
…
night.
Zuixian Tower.
Lu Feng got off the carriage and walked inside.
Miao Feng was still following Lu Feng as Lu Feng's bodyguard as before.
"Really, that little girl thought you were here for a big dinner tonight, so she just wanted to follow you without making any noise."
Miao Feng's tone was slightly helpless.
Lu Feng chuckled lightly, "Lin Dang's temperament needs to be polished. I always feel that if this continues, he will become a tomboy. Just like..."
Speaking of this, Lu Feng glanced at Miao Feng and stopped talking.
"Just what?" Miao Feng looked unkind, "By the way, what's that look in your eyes?"
"No, Feng'er, you are worrying too much."
Lu Feng quickly looked away.
The largest private room in Zuixian Tower has been booked by Tie Changlin.
When Lu Feng pushed the door open, he found that everyone inside was already there, waiting for him to arrive.
"Master Lu." Tie Changlin spoke first.
"Iron Alliance Leader, everyone, you are well."
As Lu Feng walked, he came to the seat left for him and sat down.
"It feels like it hasn't been long, and I don't know whether to call him Master Lu or General Shenwei." Feng Shi, the leader of the Sword Sect, said, stroking his gray beard.
"Hahaha, it's just a title, you don't have to be the sect leader." Lu Feng waved his hand.
"Hey, who in Daxia now doesn't know the reputation of General Shenwei." Leng Yu smiled, "People's storytellers have begun to talk about how brave you are. Just leading a cavalry turned the country of Hu upside down. Again. Using a small plan, we eliminated the active forces of the Hu Kingdom and placed them in a basin of the small country, laying the foundation for our victory in Daxia in one fell swoop."
"Now everyone among the people is praising the deeds of General Shenwei. I'm afraid that you will attract everyone's attention when you come out."
Just praise, you don't have to say it all. Lu Feng smiled.
"No." Tie Changlin took over the conversation, "As soon as we heard that Mr. Lu returned to Baima City, we prepared this banquet tonight to thank Mr. Lu for his efforts at the border."
"Oh? Thank you very much."
Lu Feng raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"Hahaha, Mr. Lu has a good drinker," one person said.
Those who came tonight were not only prominent figures from various sects, but also some juniors from the sects.
For example, Song Qing and He Xuejiao.
At the wine table, it's nothing more than persuading people to drink wine, pick up food, and compliment each other.
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.
Leng Yu started a new topic and said:
"I heard that Mr. Lu needs money now to help the scarce treasury to repair the border defenses that were damaged during the war."
"Although I am a martial artist, I also know the justice of my family and country. I can still distinguish the importance of things. In this regard, Tianxiang Pavilion also wants to contribute to the repair of the border and donate some money."
"Of course, I also hope that Mr. Lu will not forget Tianxiang Pavilion's help to the court."
Although Leng Yu's words caught the martial arts people off guard, the final sentence also made the listeners feel attentive.
Lu Feng also didn't expect Leng Yu to say this at this time.
Hua Mei had already told her the matter. Originally, Lu Feng only wanted to ask Tianxiang Pavilion to provide some money.
Fortunately now, she has also joined various major sects.
Lu Feng was also smart and quickly understood what Leng Yu meant.
He sighed and pretended to be serious:
"Master Leng Pavilion is really exquisite and knows my current difficulties. I didn't expect that the Wulin people would be so generous and willing to help the imperial court repair the border defenses."
"Come, I would like to thank you all on behalf of the court."
Lu Feng drank all the strong wine in the cup.
Hey, hey, hey, we didn’t say anything, why did you take us with you?
Except for Leng Yu, all the leaders were caught off guard.
But Lu Feng said so, and if the imperial court had not fought desperately against the enemy at the border, Daxia would not be so peaceful now, and the war might have spread to Jiangnan.
These leaders looked at each other in confusion, and finally it was Tie Changlin, Feng Shi and other highly respected people who spoke.
"I, the Wanyue Sect, will naturally not ignore the role of the imperial court because of some conflicts. I, the Wanyue Sect, will also donate some money for repairs."
"Since it is a matter of protecting our family and country, our Sword Sect is naturally obliged to do so."
"Jianjian Villa is also willing to contribute a small amount of effort."
With these three big guys taking the lead, the others also spoke in agreement.
With food to eat and money to earn, Lu Feng was naturally happy in his heart.
"On behalf of the imperial court and the people of the world, I would like to thank you all."
At this time, Bailian didn't open any pot, and said in a strange way:
"Since all our sects have come to help the court when it is in trouble, shouldn't Mr. Lu think about changing the court's hostility towards our martial arts world?"
These words speak to the sentiments of most people.
Although Wulin had a bad relationship with the court before He Wan ascended the throne, the relationship between the two has become even worse since He Wan wanted to purge Wulin.
Although Lu Feng didn't expect the leader of the Mo Sect, Bai Lian, to speak out about this issue at this time, he was not surprised at all, not even angry.
He looked at Bai Lian and said with a smile: "The words of Master Bai Sect revealed a little bit of what I am thinking."
"Oh, how do you say this?" Tie Changlin asked.
Lu Feng gently turned the wine glass and said slowly:
"Most of the news collected by the court before was negative news about martial arts. Officials from various places reported to the court that there were martial arts people who disrupted law and order and posed a lot of hidden dangers to public security issues. Every time the government came forward to coordinate, there would be some He stirs up trouble and makes it difficult for the government to deal with it."
"What's more, they do evil things. For example, the Disha Sect and the Qinglong Gang are the typical examples."
Lu Feng said as he glanced around, taking in the expressions on everyone's faces.
"Xia uses force to break the ban. This problem has troubled the court for a long time. Today, for the stability of Jiangnan, we must take action. I hope you can understand His Majesty's difficulties."
"but."
Lu Feng changed the subject.
"I came to Baima City and have been dealing with you for so long, and I have a deeper understanding of the martial arts sects in the south of the Yangtze River."
"Everyone here is a person who values love and righteousness, and is also respected in terms of moral character. Therefore, I have also changed my mind about coming here. After tonight's generous help, I have become even more determined. idea.”
"So?" Bai Lian was a little impatient.
"So, I decided to write a memorial to the court and His Majesty, so that neither party will be embarrassed by this matter."
