Chapter 427: It Wasn't the Lantern, It Was My Heart

A couple with children was about to return, but the little boy riding on the man's neck had not watched enough fun and cried and didn't want to go back.

The man was upset because Dafeng lost the competition. When his son cried, he lost his patience and carried the boy away.

The little boy cried even harder. In order to stay, he grabbed a wooden pole beside him, making his father unable to pull him away.

But who would have expected that the wooden pole was used to hang lanterns, but it was temporarily inserted into the ground. When the boy pulled it, the pole immediately tilted, and the lanterns hanging on the wooden pole fell down one after another.

Miss Zheng Wu, who accompanied her mother to watch the competition, sat next to the wooden pole. She looked up at the several lanterns that fell towards her, and she was stunned and could not move at all.

A scream sounded around, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.

If the lantern falls on Miss Zheng Wu, it is very likely to catch a fire, and the consequences are simply unimaginable!

At this critical moment, a figure quickly rushed out of the secret. He raised his hand to protect Miss Zheng Wu, and waved his knife with his other hand to chop the falling lanterns to the ground.

Before the lantern fell, the flame was extinguished by the sword wind. After the lantern fell to the ground, there was no string of sparks.

The place where the accident happened was not far from the stone platform. The emperor could see it clearly and was so shocked that he felt a layer of sweat in his palms.

When Dugu Jue, who was standing beside him, saw that the matter was soon calmed down by the guards of Dafeng, his eyes showed a hint of disappointment.

The worse the banquet of the Dafeng nations was held, the more beneficial it would be for them in the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

So he asked someone to secretly raise a few wooden poles by an inch, waiting for the chaos to make a mistake.

Unexpectedly, the guards in Dafeng were so vigilant that they arranged people to stare at each place. The scene looked chaotic, but in fact it was orderly in chaos and it was difficult to make mistakes.

The emperor also discovered this and felt much more at ease. He knew that these were Li Yuan’s arrangements, and he became more and more satisfied.

At this time, Yulin Guard had quickly controlled the scene, and someone quietly took the crying little boy's family away.

Miss Zheng Wu looked at the man in the flying fish suit in front of her, her heart was beating fast, and her face was so red that it was almost bleeding.

Hua Jingyi looked at Miss Zheng Wu in a daze, thinking she was injured, so she said with concern: "Are you okay?"

Miss Zheng Wu shook her head into a rattle, lowered her head, and timidly spit out two words from her lips: "It's okay!"

Mrs. Zheng was so scared that she smoked her orifices. Only then did she come back to her soul. Seeing her daughter having nothing to do, she said to Hua Jingyi gratefully:

"General Hua! Thank you very much!"

"The responsibility is, no need to thank me!" Seeing that Miss Zheng Wu was not injured, Hua Jingyi inserted the knife back into the scabbard and directed several subordinates to hide in the crowd again.

After Hua Jingyi and others left, the ladies around came over. They first cared about Miss Zheng Wu's situation, and then said:

"I didn't expect that Mr. Hua's second master's kung fu is so good!"

"Yes, the moment he just took out the knife, it was not the lantern that hit me, but my heart!"

"Speaking of this, if his half of his face was not destroyed, his appearance would definitely be comparable to His Highness Qa! But even if his face was destroyed, he would still be very handsome!"

"I heard that he hurt his face to save Hua Shuyue! Damn Hua Shuyue! What a damn evil spirit! When it's autumn, I must go to Caishikou to see how she died!"

Miss Zheng Wu listened to the discussions of these people, and couldn't help but reach out to touch the scar hidden under her bangs, and her heart was jumping all over.

After the performance, the first banquet of the All Nations officially ended.

Under the guidance of Yulin Guard and Wucheng Bingmaster, the people left Chang'an Street in an orderly manner.

Another team of Yulin Guards escorted envoys from various countries back to the foreign hall.

The emperor also returned to the palace with the imperial carriage.

The commander of several competitions naturally followed the emperor into the palace.

In the imperial study room, the emperor looked at the people in front of him with a tiny color, without saying a word.

Today's competition was really ugly.

Except for Yue Annian, the few people were frowning, and King Liang even knelt directly on the ground, and said with red eyes:

"It's my son's fault. I'm embarrassed by my father. Please punish me!"

King Liang knew that he could not shirk this responsibility. If it was because of others who influenced the competition, he could still pull the man out and beat him up, but the person who made the mistake was himself.

The emperor was completely disappointed with King Liang. He was too lazy to scold King Liang anymore. He waved his sleeves and said:

"Forget it, what's the use of punishing you? All the faces that should be embarrassed!"

This made King Liang feel even more uncomfortable. He actually felt that this was strange. It seemed that someone was deliberately implicating him, otherwise why would he suddenly step on a foreign object?

But he had no evidence, so he could only stand aside with grievance.

Yue Annian felt so happy when he saw King Liang like this. He stepped forward and said to the emperor:

"Father, don't be so angry about your brother! This is just the first competition!

Don’t worry, the next music competition will definitely turn the tide, give you a face and give you a glory!"

Seeing that Yue Annian was so confident, the emperor's brows stretched a little.

He looked at the five people in front of him and reminded:

"We can't lose anymore. Back to Meng, the dog legs of Goryeo have been watching. Whoever they are thick with their thighs will hold whom.

If Dangxiang, the two countries in the East, and the two countries in the East have formed an alliance with the Northern Zhou Dynasty, our northern border will be in danger!

You must let them see the strength of Dafeng. Even if the Northern Zhou Dynasty has the help of Japan and Dangxiang, we can still beat them with our strength!"

Except for the four kings of Liang, they knelt down together and said in unison: "I will definitely live up to my mission!"

After being spurred by the emperor, everyone left the imperial study room.

It was already late at night when King Liang returned to his mansion. He looked at the butler in dismay and asked, "Where is Ali?"

At this time, he really needed to be comforted. He knew that after the banquet of the nations, his father would agree to him go to the fiefdom, but leaving in such a shame is really uncomfortable.

The housekeeper also knew that King Liang had lost the competition. He was afraid that he would be angry and did not even dare to show off his anger. He replied in a low voice:

"Go back to the prince, I haven't seen Guanren Song come back!"

King Liang frowned, feeling worried and confused.

He was afraid that his mother took Song Li away because he lost the competition, so he said to the housekeeper:

"Send a few people to the palace to ask, and then send someone outside to search. You must not let something happen to A Li!"

The housekeeper knew the importance of the Song official in King Liang's heart, so he did not dare to neglect it, so he hurriedly ordered people to go and search.

King Liang returned to the house and was worried about Song Li, so he wanted to change his clothes and go out to find someone.

But as soon as he unbuttoned his belt, he heard a few crisp sounds of "Dangdang". Then, he saw a small iron bead rolling quickly under the candlestick.

He quickly walked over and bent over to pick up the iron beads. Looking at the iron beads, his face almost turned white into paper.

He shook his body slightly and suddenly collapsed on the ground.

The iron bead shaking in his palm, and there was a layer of grease on it. This small iron bead weighed as heavy as ten thousand pounds, crushing his heart to pieces.

He thought that before the competition, Song Li sorted out his clothes. It was very likely that Song Li would put this bead on him, but why did he do this!
Chapter completed!
