Stunning at Every Step: Sheng Chong Ghost Princess

Chapter 263 The Banquet of the Hungry Ghost Festival

There are two more days until the Ghost Festival.

The Ghost Festival is over, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is not far away, right?
Hou Xi and Zhou walked to the desk and opened a drawer that was sealed with magic.

In the drawer were a bamboo flute, a piece of suet jade with South Sea pearls, and a folding fan.

Holding the folding fan open, the inscription:
If you don't love lovesickness in your life, you will love it, and you will hurt lovesickness.The body is like floating clouds, the heart is like flying catkins, the breath is like gossamer, there is a lingering fragrance in the sky, what can I hope for a thousand gold wanderers.When does the syndrome come?When the lamp is half dim, when the moon is half bright.

Hou Xiri's slender fingers touched the characters one by one.

The past five years have really passed too fast, and it is too long...

"My lord, Chief Bi'an is asking to see you." The Yaksha ghost Tuo Ze asked for instructions from outside the door.

There must be something wrong with Bian coming so late.

Close the folding fan and put it back in the drawer in the evening.

Bi An walked in and saluted: "This old slave pays respects to the Ghost King."

"What's the matter, Bian?"

"The old slave found a letter among the master's old things."

Zhuohua's letter?
Later, Xi and Zhou received the letter.

There is indeed Zhuohua's handwriting on a piece of silk, which looks a bit like a will, and it says:

Inheriting my ambition, if I die in battle, the one who gets the bird feather stone will succeed the master of Jiuqu City, and Bi An will succeed as the general manager to assist the new master.The two elder brothers, Xizhao and Houxi, if they feel that the master of Jiuqu City is chosen properly, they can hand over the Yaozu scepter to him, and if they are not suitable, please take care of the old department on their behalf.

June 530, [-] BC

Looking at Bian in the evening, why is there such a letter at this time?
Bi An explained: "Today is the Day of Reunion. The old slave suddenly found it among the old books in the academy. The old slave was also very shocked, but after careful identification, it was indeed the owner's handwriting. The date was written before the Great War broke out. Write."

Hou Xiri naturally recognized Zhuohua's handwriting, but why didn't he discover such an important thing until now?
"Who else knows about this?"

"Today's Juyi, everyone except Guichuan and Kunlunxu saw it, including... Lord Mojun."

"Has the rhino been taken care of?"

Xi took care of it, but Cai Cai never talked to him about it.

Bi An: "The devil said that this happened thousands of years ago. Bird Lingshi and the little city owner... Miss Zhao are no longer in this world, so this matter is irrelevant, but the old slave still thinks it is more appropriate to report to Wang Bei."

Five years ago, Zhao Mingyue was imprisoned in Kuozhi Prison by Namo. Tuo Ze only told Hou XiZhou alone about this. The others in Tuo Ze didn't know that Zhao Mingyue was still alive.

The matter has calmed down in the past five years, and today the stars in the southern sky have changed, and this manuscript appeared at this time, which always makes Hou Xiri a little uneasy.

"The king knows."

"The old slave will leave first."

Two days later, on the fourteenth day of the seventh lunar month, there was a grand ceremony in Youdu. After the King of Ghosts hosted a banquet for the ministers of humerus to discuss meritorious deeds, there was a din of singing and dancing, delicious food and wine.

Today we don't talk about state affairs, only good wine and beautiful women.

Chu Ziyan was dressed in a black robe, with a half mask covering his face, and was drinking from a golden bottle.

During the banquet, silk, bamboo and wind music played.

Singer and dancer come here.

The cyan water is beautiful and graceful, and the dance is graceful and graceful. Among the dozen or so dancers in green dresses, the lead dancer is wearing a red dress, with a little red in the green, which is even more eye-catching, and the hot figure has won the favor of the guests present Amazed.

She wore a red gauze on her face, painted eyelashes with heavy makeup, and glanced frequently as she danced coquettishly.

Suddenly, I was a little bit dazed.

Later, he saw many women with outstanding dancing postures, but none of them were as delicate and moving as the girl who folded off the plum branches and drew the picture of Tai Chi.

It was like he had seen many sunrises and sunsets later on, but none of them was as beautiful as the one he watched side by side with that man on the south coast.

Hou Xi and day watched the woman in red be distracted, causing the officials below to whisper.

"Hehe, it seems that the king is very fond of this red dancer."

"It should be so, I have never seen him look at other women like this before."

When Hou Xi and Zhou heard it, he hummed helplessly and drank the wine again.

The woman in red who was leading the dance threw her water sleeve lightly, almost hitting Hou XiZhou's wine glass, and he raised his black eyes slightly to look at the child.

His brows tightened unconsciously.

The woman also took off her veil and gave him a charming smile: "Xi Lan pays tribute to the king."

Lou Yanlan's exotic face looks extraordinarily charming, but also exudes a hint of wildness, and her body has a charming charm of various styles.

Hou Xizhou unconsciously closed his eyes, Xi Zhao had already greeted him two days earlier, he should have been prepared.

Seeing the beauty of this woman, everyone heard the name and said instantly: "Xi Lan...isn't that the sister of the Demon Lord?"

It was very logical for Lou Yanluo to take over the demon clan, because Xuanshu was originally his man, and he was just an agent for thousands of years. When Lou Yanluo came back, he was respectfully given the position of Demon Lord, and regained the name of Xizhao.

This is where he is different from Hou Xizhou, Xizhao will keep a hand in everything, and he is far more tactful and sophisticated than Hou Xizhou. For example, he will not directly take down Yin Guangyu like Hou Xizhou. .

due to character.

Later in the evening and in the afternoon, a piece of black iron is so hard that it can't be bent no matter what.

Rhinoceros is like molten iron, it is hard when it cools, and it can be handled casually, of course, the person who handles it must be able to withstand his temperature.

Everyone knows the relationship between the two of them, and many people know that Xizhao's younger sister, Xilan, fell in love with the King of Ghosts very early on. It seems that the Demon Lord once said something to facilitate their happy event.

So at this moment, there are princes who immediately add fuel to the flames: "The king's harem has been empty for so many years, isn't it waiting for the little devil?"

Someone else echoed: "If this is the case, now should be the time when lovers finally get married. Our ghost clan has not had a happy event for a long time, and the grievances of these millennia should be washed away with a big joy."

Xi Lan was of course full of joy when she heard it.

Sure enough, what my brother said is right, the lifespan of human beings is only fleeting, even if Hou Xizhou had such a relationship with Zhao Mingyue, it was just a romantic relationship, fleeting.Now that Zhao Mingyue is dead, he and his elder brother have both returned to the underworld. It is only natural that she wants to marry Hou Xizhou, and it is what the people hope for.

Hou Xizhou put down the wine glass, and the eyes behind the silver mask were very sharp: "The only way to bring happiness to the underworld is to kill Wu Man, and nothing else is considered happiness."

As soon as Wuman was mentioned, everyone in the room fell silent.

After a long time, someone boldly said: "My lord, it will not be a day and night to eradicate the Wuman. Before that, the king should also be equipped with the necessities of the emperor's life."

Hou Xiri's sharp eyes shot at the man Jinyan: "If you don't get rid of the barbarians, you don't have to worry about other things for this king. Stop talking, Onikawa..."

Tuo Ze came out: "My lord, Master Onikawa has gone to Jiuqu City."

How did he forget about this?
He was very warlike back then, so that year's underworld war caused the ghost clan the heaviest loss. Most of his confidantes died in battle, except for Bai Yu, Onikawa and Kunlun Xu.

Gui Chuan and Kun Lun Xu were originally the third younger brother Zhuo Hua's people, and he saw that he liked it so much that he wanted it.

Zhuohua said, "People can be lent to the second brother, but they cannot be consumed by you at will."

Really obeyed his words, these two people were saved by him in the end, and most of his old ghost tribe died in battle.

During his serious injury, Yin Guangyu's power rose, and Guichuan and Kunlunxu would naturally be excluded. Those two were unwilling to submit to a hypocritical villain like Yin Guangyu, so they gradually returned to the Yaozu tribe.

The Yaozu is different from them. He and Xizhao entertain courtiers during the festivals. Zhuohua doesn’t follow the rules. On July [-]th, he also named it Juyi Day.

Two days earlier, Bian was the Zhuohua legacy that was discovered on Juyi Day.

The Ghost Festival is here, and everyone in the Yaozu who can rest arranges to rest, and Zhuohua doesn't stay in the palace, he goes to Jiuqu City to cook a banquet for a group of his friends.So every day after that day, Xiri had to let Onikawa and Kunlun Xu go on vacation and let them go to Jiuqu City to reunite.

In retrospect, Zhuohua is really different from him and Xizhao, which is why he always likes to be with Zhuohua, because the mountains, rivers and people around him are extraordinarily precious and peaceful.

Because of this, Zhuohua left for a thousand years, but Jiubu still followed his wishes, and kept guarding his favorite city in Jiuqu, unwilling to leave.

So sometimes I think about it, Zhuohua shouldn't have saved him that day, because he has more people caring about him, and he is a wonderful person who is more accepted by this world.

It's just that the old man has passed away.But now that he has returned to Huangquan, there is no one who is really available around him, no one can fight side by side with him, and sing to wine.

Originally, he wanted Onikawa to continue to receive these courtiers instead of him, but because there was no one, he could only continue.

It was a little embarrassing for Xi Lan to be so ignored by him, but even though he was so indifferent every time, she still wanted him even more, and she couldn't let go of it. Many, many years passed in a flash.

"Xi Lan dances so hard, can't Second Brother give me a seat?"

"Tuo Ze, give me a seat."

Tuo Ze took out the cushion, Xi Lan snatched it off and placed it beside Hou XiZhou, then knelt on the cushion and took the initiative to fill his empty wine glass.

At this time, someone will toast again.

Hou Xi and day picked up the glass of Xi Lan's full wine and responded.

The banquet continued like this...

Alas, he suddenly wanted to go to Jiuqu City too.

Although Jiuqu City imitated the city of humans, the only difference is that they also celebrated the Ghost Festival as the Spring Festival.Compared with the turbulent underworld, many ghosts prefer a place like a paradise like Jiuqu.

So at this moment, Jiuqu City is crowded with people and is very festive.

Fenghua Building should have had a lively reunion dinner, but...

Onikawa, who was carrying the dishes, and Heihe Wushuang, who was making dumplings, saw the people at the door, their festive faces were stunned.

Zhao Mingyue is back? !
The person who should have passed away five years ago reappeared!

And wouldn't it be too late for her to come back?Two days ago, Juyi discovered the master's "legacy", saying that the Jiuqu City was passed on to the person who held the bird's feather stone, and she appeared by accident!
