the banquet is over

The three people were covered with cloth on their faces, and they couldn't see their faces clearly. However, the dense tattoos and scars on their bodies had to make people breathe.

Behind them, a man who looked like a housekeeper ran over panting and shouted, "Oh, no, the young master is injured, come quickly! Come quickly!"

Young Master Gu Yue looked back at the butler who was rushing over, and curled his lips helplessly. He waved his hand gently, and the crossbowmen around him suddenly shot thousands of arrows. Xiang Ji waved his overlord gun to resist the rain of arrows. He looked up and saw the butler helping to help Young Master Gu Yue walk towards a carriage.

"Stop!" Xiang Ji shouted loudly, picked up his gun and chased after him. The three masked men jumped up quickly in an instant. Xiang Ji waved his arms hard and one of them was shaken away several meters, while the other two took the opportunity to block Xiang Ji's actions.

The martial arts of these three masked men were completely different from those in black before. They were top-notch in terms of strength and attack speed. Although they were not as good as Xiang Ji, the three of them took action at the same time and still surrounded Xiang Ji.

In a short interval, Young Master Gu Yue took the opportunity to get on the carriage and fled quickly. The guards around him were not in a fight, and after defending Young Master Gu Yue left, they all dispersed. The three masked men used all their strength to trap Xiang Ji in place, and did not evacuate quickly until the carriage disappeared.

"Crazy and cunning bastard!" Xiang Ji looked at the galloping carriage and cursed hatefully, but he was helpless at the moment, so he had to watch the injured Young Master Gu Yue escape from Liu'anpo.

This ridiculous banquet is over after all...

The dancers and guards were relieved and kneeled down and were grateful to them. Zhang Liang persuaded them for a long time before he dismissed them and let them go home.

Liu Ji let out a long breath and put away his sword. He raised his arm, took a deep breath to use his exercises, and his internal strength surged out of his dantian. Before he knew it, the poison seemed to have been relieved. He walked to Young Master Gu Yue’s seat just now, picked up the antidote he had dropped on the ground, put it on his nose and smelled it, and said in surprise: “Is this…dogtail grass?”

Zhang Liang walked forward with a smile, took out a purse from his sleeve, and joked: "Time is tight, so I have to use the dog's tail to get rid of my bag. The real antidote is here."

Liu Ji took the purse and a fragrant smell of medicine came from him. Liu Ji was surprised: "When did you... drop the bag?"

Zhang Liang smiled proudly: "Hehe, just now, when Mr. Gu Yue said he poisoned you, Xiaosheng felt something was wrong, so he took advantage of Mr. Xiang's attention and quietly walked behind him."

"The men in black didn't find your intention?" Liu Ji was even more puzzled: "They are all well-trained killers."

The smile on Zhang Liang's face was even more proud: "You don't understand this. Xiaosheng doesn't know martial arts and has been hiding aside from the beginning. In the eyes of the killer, Xiaosheng's existence is not threatening. Coupled with Mr. Xiang's forcing momentum, they will soon ignore Xiaosheng's existence."

"So you took the opportunity to steal the medicine?" Liu Ji suddenly realized.

Zhang Liang threw the remaining antidote on the ground and patted the dust on his hands: "If you and Mr. Xiang are both poisoned, it will be troublesome. Xiaosheng cherishes his life and doesn't want to die here today."

Zhang Liang's unconcealed intuition made Liu Ji speechless, but from the bottom of his heart, he admired this timid but smart man.

Such a bloody confrontation, the tense atmosphere was about to break out, but he was able to help Xiang Ji detoxify while protecting himself. This courage and wisdom are absolutely extraordinary.

The incident finally came to an end. Now Young Master Gu Yue has escaped, and it is useless for them to stay any longer. Liu Ji and Xiang Ji discussed it and decided to go back to the inn to meet Qi Lan and the others first.

When I returned to the inn, it was already at night. The sky was completely dark, the streets were bustling, and there was still a lot of people, without any influence.

Qi Lan was waiting in the lobby of the inn early. Seeing Liu Ji and others coming back from afar, Qi Lan was immediately surprised. She lifted up her skirt and ran towards Liu Ji lightly. The big stone hanging in her heart finally fell to the ground.

"Thank God, you are finally back!" Qi Lan felt relieved and threw herself into Liu Ji's arms. Liu Ji smiled like a doting smile and gently hugged Qi Lan's waist.

"Are you injured?" Qi Lan looked at Liu Ji carefully up and down. Liu Ji smiled and shook his head, indicating that Qi Lan should not worry.

Zhang Liang walked over quickly, interrupting the affection between the two of them, and asked directly: "How is the situation over you? Have the child's mother found it?"

"We have found an incredible person!" Qi Lan smiled mysteriously and pulled Liu Ji into the lobby.

In the room, Xiaoxin sat upright in the owner's seat, drinking tea slowly, while Hongye stood respectfully beside Xiaoxin.

Yu Ruoyan sat upright in her seat, waiting anxiously. The sound of footsteps gradually came from outside the door. Yu Ruoyan stood up happily. The door creaked open, and Xiang Ji rushed in quickly.

"Have you really found the son of the King of Chu?" Xiang Ji was both surprised and happy when he saw Yu Ruoyan.

Yu Ruoyan pointed excitedly and gestured with her eyes. Xiang Ji turned around according to her gaze and saw the young man sitting upright in the seat at a glance. He was stunned and blurted out: "...Aren't you, the little servant in Nuanxiang Pavilion?"

Yu Ruoyan was startled and hurriedly grabbed Xiang Ji's sleeve and whispered in his ear. After hearing Yu Ruoyan's words, Xiang Ji opened his eyes like a copper bell: "You, you - are the son of the King of Chu?"

Xiaoxin nodded and put down the teacup: "I am the son of King Chu, Mi Xin."

Xiang Ji was stunned for a long time, then knelt on one knee, clasped his fists with both hands, and said respectfully: "I am Xiang Ji, the grandson of Xiang Yan, and I have been looking for you for many years..."

Xiaoxin stood up, helped Xiang Ji up, nodded and praised: "General Xiang Yan has such a grandson, which is really a great blessing for our Chu State."

Xiang Ji and Xiao Xin are both prominent people in the Chu State. When they first met, they inevitably had a lot to say. They both hit it off at first, and even dinner was sent directly to the store to the room.

Qi Lan and Liu Ji and Zhang Liang were free, so they gathered together and talked about what happened today. When they heard about the atrocities of Mr. Gu Yue at Liu'anpo, Qi Lan was shuddered. Even if she had never seen it with her own eyes, she could deeply feel the tyranny of Mr. Gu Yue from the line.
