After all, they were distinguished guests from Beirong. Since they met, it was hard to drive them away.
Soon, the group of people took their seats.
Unfortunately, the person sitting opposite Yun Jiutang was Li Chongzhuo.
His eyes looked like a smile but not a smile, as if he was afraid that others would not know that he was related to Mr. Xiaoyao!
Mu Canglin naturally noticed it and said, "Do you know the King of Yue?"
"His Royal Highness the King of Yue once sought medical treatment from common people." Yun Jiutang said quietly.
"Yes! Mr. Xiaoyao has superb medical skills and even cured my old injury! I am very grateful!"
Li Zhongzhuo said, raised his wine glass and said, "Come, I'll give you a toast!"
"I don't dare to take it! I don't dare to take it!" Yun Jiutang returned the drink with a smile, and Mu Canglin said,
"Can Xiaoyao still heal injuries? Why don't you go to the king's army and become a military doctor! What do you think?"
"My lord, please forgive me, but the people's ambitions are not here."
"What kind of military doctor are you going to do? It's bitter cold in the army. How can a young master with such delicate skin and tender flesh like Xiaoyao suffer that kind of hardship! Why don't you go to my palace and be my exclusive doctor!" Li Zhongzhuo said, "Xiaoyao, I will definitely not treat you badly!"
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness, King of Yue! However, the common people are from Dayong and do not want to leave their homeland. I hope Your Highness will forgive me!" Yun Jiutang said with a smile.
"Ah, that's such a pity." Li Zhongzhuo said with regret.
"I really like you. If one day you no longer want to stay in Dayong, you might as well come to me. I will definitely accept you with open arms!"
Yun Jiutang, "..."
"Unexpectedly, the dignified King of Yue actually has a habit of cutting off his sleeves." Bai Liran said sarcastically, "But it's a pity that Xiaoyao is not interested in you."
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Before Li Zhongzhuo said anything, Princess Yueqing stood up and pointed at Bai Liran and shouted angrily,
"Who do you think you are, you dare to slander the King of Yue! This is simply unreasonable! Come on!"
Before Yue Qing finished speaking, the wine glass in Mu Canglin's hand fell on the table with a "pop".
"It is not Princess Yueqing's turn to teach this king's people." Mu Canglin's voice was not loud, but his eyes when he looked at Yueqing were very compelling.
The arrogant look on Yueqing's face just now froze. For a moment, he couldn't stand or sit. He was very embarrassed.
But at this moment, Li Chongzhuo smiled nonchalantly and said: "I am the one who is abrupt! I am not very proficient in Dayong's language, so my expression may be a bit biased.
What I mean is that I admire Xiaoyao's medical skills and want to cherish such talents. "
What he said in Dayong was even smoother than that of a native Dayong person. Who would believe him if he said he expressed something wrong?
"His Highness's cherishing of talents is truly admirable! However, I will be born as a Yong man and die as a Dayong soul. I have no intention of serving other countries. I am afraid that I will disappoint His Highness the King of Yue!" Yun Jiutang did not follow. He was polite.
"The King of Yue admires you. It's your honor! Don't toast there without eating the fine wine!" Yue Qing scolded coldly.
Hearing this, Yun Jiutang couldn't help but glance at Princess Yueqing secretly.
This princess was very protective of Li Chongzhuo and would not even allow others to say anything wrong about him!
It is really……
At this time, Mu Canglin said in a deep voice: "Since Princess Yueqing is not attending the banquet sincerely, I will not force her to stay! Someone, please send the princess back!"
His behavior was very disrespectful to Yueqing and even Beirong.
But Li Zhongzhuo turned a blind eye to Yueqing's grievances and had no intention of stopping it at all.
The strange thing is that Yueqing didn't bother much, turned around, snorted coldly, and strode out.
This episode was quickly cleared up, and everyone seemed to have no grudges and continued to exchange cups and cups.
Yun Jiutang couldn't help but feel in a trance when he looked at the chatting and laughing people in front of him.
I always feel a little uneasy, as if something important has been ignored by her.
The banquet was in full swing in the room, when Yun Jiutang excused himself to use the toilet and walked out.
After walking to the backyard, the cool breeze blew her soberly.
She began to sort out the things that had happened recently!
It seemed that something was wrong from the moment Li Chongzhuo entered Jishi Hall and sought medical treatment from her.
He easily recognized her identity and used her blood to heal his injuries!
He had a close relationship with Concubine Zhuang and gave her a big piece of drunkenness.
Zui Guxiang was even absorbed by the bracelet, and then Li Zhongzhuo predicted that Mu Canglin would bring back Shui Rourou!
Then Mu Canglin was in danger in Kongwu Mountain. They went to rescue her, but her bracelet directed her to the hiding place of Zhao Qinghan's body!
She later lost some memory and followed them back in a daze.
During this period, I also encountered a ghost face!
Everything seems to be fragmented and unrelated.
But it always gave her the feeling that there was a huge conspiracy hidden inside.
What on earth had she overlooked?
Yun Jiutang was thinking hard, and was very lost in thought, but suddenly he heard exclamations one after another.
"No! It's gone!"
The air was filled with the smell of smoke. Yun Jiutang looked up and saw that the originally magnificent Zuixian Tower had somehow burst into flames.
Zuixian Building has three floors, mostly made of wooden structures. Because of the wide view, the third floor is full of elegant rooms, where most dignitaries eat.
Mu Canglin and Li Chongzhuo stayed in that place.
Moreover, Zuixian Tower was always packed with guests every day, and now the fire started from the first floor and quickly spread to the second and third floors.
There was also a fire on the stairs, and the people inside screamed.
"Fire out! Put out the fire quickly——"
Many people were anxious to splash water with buckets, but for such a fierce fire, this was simply a drop in the bucket.
But at this moment, Mu Canglin and his men jumped down with several people in their hands.
Several people were choked and coughing, and looked disgraced and embarrassed.
Without taking any time to pause, Mu Canglin rushed in again.
Some people on the second floor stuck their heads out of the windows, looking like they wanted to jump down.
But even the second floor is quite high. If you go down, you may break your legs and feet and become disabled.
Most of the people who come here are high-ranking officials, who are usually pampered and do not know Kung Fu.
Therefore, everyone huddled in the window, but they did not dare to jump out.
Thick smoke was billowing, the fire was threatening, and the crying inside became more intense.
Li Zhongzhuo also jumped down at this time. He was very good at martial arts, so he didn't have to worry about being burned by the fire.
Seeing Yun Jiutang at this time, he still joked: "Xiaoyao, please stay far away, don't get hurt by the fire!"
Yun Jiutang glanced at him and said nothing.
And Li Zhongzhuo continued: "I'm afraid those people inside will have no good end! Water and fire are ruthless, and they will not take a detour just because they are dignitaries!"
While talking, Bai Liran and Mu Canglin mentioned a few more people.
"King Zhenbei, why bother? There are at least dozens of people inside. How many of you can save even if you try your best? Instead, you hurt yourself!" Li Zhongzhuo's sarcastic words earned everyone a blank stare.
But after all, he is just a foreigner, not from my race, so who can expect him to feel the same as the Dayong people.
Mu Canglin's speed was very fast. When he came down again, the person he was holding was already unconscious.
Moreover, his clothes were burned in several places, which showed the critical situation inside.
Yun Jiutang couldn't stand any longer and decided to avoid the crowd and go in to help.
As a result, she was stopped by Li Zhongzhuo just as she made a move.
"You are a doctor and you can't do such rough work. You'd better stay outside!"
"Get out of the way!" Yun Jiutang didn't want to argue with him, so he suddenly raised his hand and hit his hand that was on his arm.
With a "pop" sound, Li Zhongzhuo shrank back as if he was electrocuted.
He covered his wrist, looked at her in surprise, and then smiled meaningfully.
But Yun Jiutang didn't stop at all and rushed into the fire.
It was that feeling again, she seemed to be able to resonate with these flames.
In other words, she felt that these flames were part of her body.
They couldn't hurt her and would avoid her when she got close.
The people on the first floor had already run out, but the connecting stairs were already burned to the point of being overwhelmed.
She didn't dare to do anything too obvious, she just controlled the flames and kept them away from the people inside.
Then, she quickly climbed up to the second floor with the help of tools in the space.
There was thick smoke inside, and many people were choking and coughing.
"Everyone get down! Find a way to wet your clothes and cover your mouth and nose!" Yun Jiutang shouted loudly, "There is a rope here to get down!"
As she spoke, she quickly tied the rope.
With her around, the flames were naturally avoided, and the rope would not be burned.
From the outside, the flames still looked fierce.
In fact, it's more like a layer of fire effects floating on the surface, and they can't hurt anyone.
Fortunately, everyone listened to her advice and followed her guidance, and everyone went down the rope.
There were still a few unconscious people inside. Yun Jiutang checked and found that the problem was not serious, so he quickly called down: "There is someone here! Come and save them!"
The fire here was no longer large under her deliberate control.
The guards at the bottom who came to support came up one after another to save people.
Yun Jiutang took the opportunity to go to the third floor. The fire on the third floor was not as big as the one below, but the smoke was very thick.
As soon as she went up, she suddenly bumped into someone.
"What are you doing here! Get down quickly!" It was Mu Canlin's voice, which sounded a little hoarse.
It is not easy to use your inner strength to save people all the time.
While talking, Mu Canglin pulled her to leave.
"I'm here to help!" Yun Jiutang said solemnly, "How many people are there?"
"No more! I am planning to go down! Let's go!" As soon as Mu Canglin finished speaking, the fire around him suddenly intensified.
The fire was so fierce that it immediately blocked the way out!
Yun Jiutang's expression changed suddenly, and he quickly controlled the fire, trying to clear a way.
However, she was horrified to find that the fire that had been so controllable just now was suddenly out of control!
