Chapter 226 Looking Back at Fengxuan Pavilion
For several days, the morning court was as deserted as the first morning. Those officials who asked for leave still asked for leave, and even those who could attend the court on time had nothing to report.
In the past few days, the news has spread throughout the Great Wu Dynasty, and all forces have begun to stir.
From the intelligence collected by Bai Yiyi, there are more or less traces of military mobilization in each city, and they are all heading towards the direction of the royal city.
Rumors have spread among the people, especially in the royal city at the center of the storm.
Han Luoling temporarily took over the government, and coupled with Han Xu's statement that he was the one who responded to the disaster, it almost confirmed Han Luoling's identity as a demon witch.
Those troops that came from all directions were also under the banner of clearing the court.
No matter which force it was, now almost unified a statement, that is, when the Wu Emperor was practicing and breaking through, he could not resist the inner demon, was seriously injured and dying, and his life was not long, and the gods could not save him, and the reason why the Wu Emperor was defeated by the inner demon was precisely because of Han Luoling's bewitching.
It was she who used the magic to confuse the mind of the Martial Emperor, so all the knowledgeable people in the world flocked to the royal city, wanting to kill the witch as soon as possible.
During these days, Han Xu followed the actions of all parties through Bai Yiyi, and hurried to download Bai Yiyi's Misty Steps.
Since this incident happened, Han Xu smelled a conspiracy. He must improve his strength as soon as possible, and the fastest way to improve his strength is to upgrade the system.
It only takes the last five days to complete the download of Misty Steps.
On this day, a guest came to the Han Mansion, the pride of Jiuxiao Academy, the son of King Wei, Wei Tong.
"There is no maid in the mansion now, so there is nothing to entertain, please bear with me." Han Xu welcomed Wei Tong into the door and reached out to brush the dust off the chair.
Since Qing'er and Yingying left, no one has been cleaning the house. Bai Yiyi wanted to do it, but seeing her running around all day, Han Xu couldn't bear to ask her to do it. Anyway, the two of them didn't have much to do at home, so who knew that Wei Tong would take the initiative to put things in place.
In Han Xu's impression, Wei Tong's attitude towards him was extremely bad. He was one of the most talented and powerful students in Jiuxiao Academy, while Han Xu used to be a waste at the bottom.
Wei Tong was not good at speaking. After seeing Han Xu, he didn't know what to say for a while, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.
He didn't expect that Han Xu, who he looked down on before, would suddenly become the first of the younger generation, and Han Xu's record could not be faked. So far, the Gong family has not withdrawn the Jianghu hunting order against him.
Even the eldest brother in the family admitted that he was not Han Xu's opponent, let alone Wei Tong's cultivation.
However, what shocked Wei Tong even more was the letter from his father, asking him to spend more time with Han Xu in the royal city. The protective intention in the letter was evident, as if Han Xu was his own son.
Of course, as a hostage, Wei Tong had lived in the royal city for a long time and did not know much about the affairs of the King of Wei and Mu Yao, so he was even more surprised.
Han Xu probably knew that it was the King of Wei who asked Wei Tong to come, so he would not embarrass Wei Tong, so he took the initiative to find a topic.
After all, Wei Tong was also a young man, and after a few visits, he gradually let go.
He said to Han Xu: "Actually, I came here today to tell you something. Father has brought the elite of the Suzaku Army to the royal city."
"Uncle Wei is here too?" Han Xu asked, "What does Uncle Wei mean?"
"Father asked me to tell you that no matter what happens, don't act rashly before he comes, and be sure to protect yourself."
Han Xu felt a little ashamed after hearing this. He just wondered if the King of Wei came for the throne like everyone else. After all, the temptation of the throne is not something that everyone can resist. Before the princes grow up, he, as one of the kings of different surnames, is fully qualified to compete.
However, after listening to Wei Tong's words, Han Xu realized that the King of Wei sent troops to the royal city entirely for his safety. The reason why he only brought a small number of elite Suzaku Army was that he wanted to come as quickly as possible to ensure Han Xu's safety.
"I'm such a jerk. I even doubted Uncle Wei." Han Xu thought in annoyance. Seeing that it was time for dinner and there was nothing to eat at home, Han Xu suggested inviting Wei Tong out for dinner. Wei Tong, who was not good at speaking, didn't know how to refuse. Thinking of King Wei's instructions, he agreed.
But when he arrived at the destination, Wei Tong's face turned red because of shyness.
Han Xu actually brought him to Fengxuan Pavilion, and as soon as he entered the hall, a group of beautiful women surrounded him, making Wei Tong feel very uncomfortable.
Seeing Wei Tong's embarrassment, Han Xu thought that it was really a family of cultivation maniacs. The sons of King Wei seemed to be ignorant of the world and only knew how to cultivate.
Thinking of this, Han Xu felt that he had to teach Wei Tong a good lesson, otherwise the Wei family might be at risk of extinction in the future.
So he found the madam.
After Hong Gu disappeared, the new madam called herself Sister E, who was younger and more presumptuous than Hong Gu, and more charming.
Seeing Han Xu coming, Sister E secretly kept a wary eye on him. She knew that her superiors had been paying attention to Han Xu, and she also knew that her predecessor was punished and silenced because he did not handle Han Xu's affairs properly.
"So it is Mr. Han who has come!"
"Do you know me?"
"Who doesn't know Mr. Han's name? Sister E has been looking forward to your coming since I came."
Han Xu smiled and said, "Then Sister E, please call your courtesans and a few more Hongguan."
"Mr. Han is indeed worthy of his reputation." Sister E said with a smile, "Sister E will ask Lian Xing to serve the young master well."
After Bai Yiyi left, Fengxuan Pavilion naturally selected a new courtesan, Lian Xing mentioned by Sister E. Han Xu had seen her once before. Her appearance and figure could not be compared with Bai Yiyi, but compared with ordinary women, she was like a fairy.
Han Xu quickly said, "Sister E misunderstood. I asked Lian Xing to come to accompany my brother."
"I don't need it." Wei Tong said coldly, but in Han Xu's opinion, he was clearly using a cold voice to cover up his inner panic and expectation.
Sister E was stunned for a moment. She naturally knew Wei Tong's identity, but since the other party didn't say it, she must pretend not to know him.
Han Xu said, "Sister E, don't worry about him. My brother has no experience, but I know his character. The more he says no, the more he wants it. Just call the girls and tell them to do their best to serve my brother today. As long as my brother is happy, I will reward him handsomely."
"Okay!"
Hong Gu smiled and covered her face, and hurried out to make arrangements. After a while, the door of the private room was pushed back, and Lian Xing, wearing an almost transparent veil, entered with five or six equally beautiful girls from the Hongguan. Laughter and joy immediately came out of the private room.
Han Xu smiled and said to Wei Tong, who had a stiff face, "Brother, let's have fun today."
