Chapter 217 Chapter 217

At this banquet, Song Lehe was probably the only one enjoying the skills of the chef that Huang Zhifu invited from nowhere. Everyone else had their own thoughts and didn't care about the taste of the food at all.

As the host, Magistrate Huang was very enthusiastic, both for Prince Taiping and the young man from the Taishan Sect. He was able to keep the situation calm despite the fact that Zuo Lengchan and the others had no communication with Dongfang Bubai. Song Lehe looked in admiration. As expected, people who can achieve this position always have two skills. Although he is timid and incompetent, he is good at dancing.

But just because Magistrate Huang seemed to be good at dancing, Song Lehe remembered his attitude towards the Gu doctor just now, and felt that it seemed to be below his level of good dancing. Could it be that he looked down on doctors or female Jianghu people, or felt that Song Lehe The doctor's martial arts skills are not as high as other Jianghu people, and his personality is better than other Jianghu people, so he is not worried that

Song Lehe is thinking about something careless, but his ears are not set on Huang Zhifu's gift to Dongfang Bubai on the left and Zuo Leng on the right. After Zen handed over the topic, the atmosphere of the exchange took a turn for the worse.

Even if Magistrate Huang was trying to push back, Dongfang would not give in at all, and it was impossible to let go of Zuo Lengchan, the culprit. Even if Magistrate Huang was willing to go out and rectify the name of the Sun Moon God Sect, it would be impossible.

And Zuo Lengchan was not willing to pay the price at all. He insisted that he was only deceived by Xiang Wentian, so he had some misunderstandings with Dongfang Bubai. After all, who said that the Sun Moon God Sect has a long criminal record? He just had some stereotypes That’s all. So he could apologize for his 'misbelief', but when it came to other things, he pushed back and forth, and even mentioned Prince Taiping in his words.

Song Lehe, as a bystander, did not comment on their one-sided quarrel. After all, Dongfang was sitting firmly on Diaoyutai and had a clear plan on what to do. On the contrary, the Wuyue Sword Sect said that no matter how fierce it was, it was of no use. It is not possible to get rid of the facts.

It is because of this mentality that Song Lehe has the leisure to focus on other aspects. For example, judging from what Zuo Lengchan said, it seems that he bumped into Prince Taiping while escaping from the search of the Sun Moon God Sect. I don’t know what happened in the middle. Anyway, he seems to regard himself as being with Prince Taiping now. Yes, he tried to pull the Taiping Prince's tiger skin many times during the conversation to protect his own interests. Could it be that he defected to the Taiping Prince?

However, Song Lehe was quite curious as to why a prince of a vassal could defect to him. After all, in this world Although there was no Battle of Jingnan, and no Zhu Laosi adjusted the policy to raise the vassal king like a pig, the rights of the vassal king were still quite limited. The vassal territory of King Taiping was not near the Songshan sect at all. What was the point of his defection? Meaning, is it really necessary to abandon the foundation and take people to the land of Prince Taiping to serve as subordinates?

Song Lehe felt that this guess was really unreliable. After all, it was really hard for him to believe that a medium-sized sect would To become a subordinate of a prince who has no real power is not something that a single martial arts master can do.

Except for Zuo Lengchan who seemed to have someone to rely on, the others sent by Wuyue Sword obviously lacked confidence. Not to mention the Taishan faction who was obviously pushed to take the blame, Mr. Mo Da of the Hengshan faction seemed to have communicated with his junior brother, and his attitude was very ambiguous, and even seemed a little absent-minded.

As for the Huashan Sect, the leader of the Huashan Sect is still locked up by Dongfang. Although Ning Nuxia was invited to exercise the leader's censure, she is worried about the leader who is still in Dongfang's hands. Secondly, she is still a reasonable person. , I really can’t say anything that ignores the truth. Yue Lingshan, the only one who glared at Dongfang, also looked at Dongfang in a daze after asking Ning Zhongze if he knew that their second disciple of the Huashan Sect, Luo Denuo, was an undercover agent of the Songshan Sect. .

Just when Song Lehe sighed and felt that the so-called Five Mountains Sword Sect was basically dead, Prince Taiping, who was sitting at the top, suddenly spoke.

It's just that he didn't speak to Zuo Lengchan, but to make himself clear.

Gong Jiu: "So this is what happened. I didn't expect Master Zuo to be such an ambitious person. I was rash."

Then he said lightly that he trusted the wrong person and he would not protect Zuo Lengchan. , everything is subject to the decision of the Eastern leader. Hearing Song Lehe's head, there were questions. Was it possible that the Taiping Prince was really deceived by Zuo Lengchan? Why did he give up so easily, or decide to rely on him? Isn't he afraid of the cold hearts of his subordinates?

Zuo Lengchan looked quite unbelievable. He didn't know what he had communicated with Gong Jiu before, before he decided to take refuge with such a person. He must have been betrayed now.

As soon as Prince Taiping's attitude came out, Zuo Lengchan took action very keenly, but instead of attacking Dongfang or taking a hostage, he fled outside without hesitation. No wonder he escaped from being hunted by the Sun Moon God Sect. He was definitely one of the best in terms of life-saving acumen.

It's a pity that Dongfang Bubai is still sitting here. Zuo Lengchan only rushed out a few meters when he was caught up by Dongfang instantly and slapped him on the seat again. His eyes were almost like those of Huang Zhifu, who didn't even notice when Dongfang left.

With Prince Taiping's statement, Magistrate Huang would naturally not continue to protect Zuo Lengchan. Instead, he changed his face without hesitation. Not only did he reprimand Zuo Lengchan for his wolfish ambitions, but he also unceremoniously involved the two poisoning incidents. On his body, it indicated that he must have instigated these two poisoning incidents in order to coerce others. He took out the others at once, showing off his flexible figure.

Magistrate Huang probably also noticed that Dongfang Bubai only wanted to be the mastermind, and no one else paid attention at all; and Prince Taiping also seemed to be interested in getting closer to Song Yi; and Song Yi seemed to have no one other than Dongfang Bubai. He also had friends in the Wuyue Sword Sect opposite him; and he didn't want this matter to cause too much trouble and affect his reputation in the court.

With such a calculation, it is very appropriate to put everything on one person's head. The leader of Dongfang Cult could kill the mastermind without being stigmatized and continue to lead the transformation of Sun Moon God Sect; Song Yi could save the lives of his friends; Prince Taiping could remove the stain of unclear understanding of people; and Magistrate Huang could get an explanation The past, the reason for reporting: It is much better to have some evil people with sinister intentions than to rule chaos.

Wuqing and Song Lehe couldn't help but frowned. Because of Huang Zhifu's plan, they were both people who were more willing to find out the truth than to smooth over the matter smoothly. Especially when Song Lehe himself already knew the real culprits of the two poisoning incidents. He was absolutely unwilling to ignore the truth, just acquiesce in the matter, and just save Wang Yunmeng.

But before these two people could veto the "good intention" of Magistrate Huang, Dongfang Bubai snorted and rejected Magistrate Huang's proposal.

Dongfang: "I will find out the truth of the matter on my own, and I don't need your conciliatory approach. The difference between the so-called good and evil is not that big to me, and I won't tie myself up for a mere fame."

Dongfang finally That sentence was said to Song Lehe. Of course he would not be nagging about a stranger, but friends were different. He knew that Song Yi seemed to be investigating other things besides the Five Mountains Sword Sect, so he told him not to worry about him if he wanted to do anything.

Dongfang Bubai had someone escort Zuo Lengchan away. This was the only reason why he came to this banquet. This guy was so good at hiding. Instead of chasing after him again, it would be better to use this opportunity to deceive him. come out. Now that he has achieved his goal, why does he still stay here? Does it mean that the old face of Governor Huang is very good-looking?

Dongfang Bubai left without looking back, clearly showing his use, which made Governor Huang blush. green. He took a deep breath and first looked at Prince Taiping. Seeing that he had no expression, he suppressed his anger and motioned for the banquet to continue.

After Dongfang Bubai, who was the main invitation target, left, the banquet ended before it lasted long.

The boy from the Taishan faction was taken away by Ning Zhongze, who couldn't stand it. They might also go to Lu Xiaofeng, after all, he was the one who brought them the news about Yue Buqun. As for Mr. Mo Da, he may have gone to find his junior brother. As the person in charge of the attack on Dongfang, Qu Yang should know a lot about how Dongfang plans to handle this matter.

As for Song Lehe, he simply went to find Wuqing and chatted with him on the way to his room. When it comes to investigating the case, he still trusts his life-seeking senior brother more than Magistrate Huang who wants to make peace with him, so he feels more at ease leaving Wang Yunmeng to him.

But now Song Lehe has more curious questions to ask Qing Qing than Wang Yunmeng who has already caught him: "If I remember correctly, the power of this dynasty's vassal king only has some effect on his one-third of an acre of land. , He should be useless in the court. He has already become the prefect, why is he so flattering to a prince?"

King Taiping's vassal was not near Luoyang, but closer to the western border. The reason why Prince Taiping appeared here is also very confusing. The vassal king cannot leave the vassal territory without an edict. Although the prince's requirements are not so strict, he certainly cannot run around. The Taiping prince has no intention of covering up at all.

Qingqing smiled and said: "The Taiping King is indeed a bit special. He is about the same age as the late emperor, but one generation higher than the late emperor. The two grew up together in the palace and have a good relationship. The Taiping King has the ability of the vassal queen. He was quite outstanding and was highly praised by the late emperor. Later, he even became one of the emperor's most trusted ministers. Later, as the emperor grew older, King Taiping bravely retreated and handed over his power, so he was highly respected by the emperor. A child, the emperor has shown kindness to him many times to show his closeness."

Song Lehe nodded and understood. King Taiping had been a powerful minister, and he had support and timely letting go of his favor with the current emperor. His opinion was. He was still very useful in the court, so Magistrate Huang was very flattering to Prince Taiping.

After solving this doubt, Song Lehe talked about the results of the two poisoning cases, and finally concluded: "Wang Yunmeng has been caught. You can go to Song Lehe to take him away tomorrow. She may also do You can check some things yourself, but I won't get involved. Then there is a vague force besides Wang Yunmeng. The group of killers seems to come from a place called Ghost Villa, but I don't know the specific situation. I don't know that Lu Xiaofeng is pursuing this matter."

Song Lehe paused for a moment, and saw that he had reached the door of Qingqing's room, so he stopped talking for the time being. Wu Ming's matter should be settled with Wu Qingqing when the Gu doctor comes tomorrow.
