King Xian set the date for the Heroes Banquet to be three days later.
In three days, King Xian had at least 50,000 to 60,000 troops.
After thinking about it, Xiao Li went to find Rong Qing. Their arrangement needed some adjustments.
When Rong Qing heard that the empress wanted to act alone, he couldn't agree at all.
Xiao Li: "General Rong, this is an order from the king."
Seeing Rong Qing nod with difficulty, Xiao Li said, "Zi Yue, stay with me. If anything happens, I will run away and will not confront them head-on."
After Rong Qing left, Xiao Li asked Zi Yue to continue watching Prince Xian's Mansion.
Apart from the rebellion of King Xian, Xiao Li has not forgotten her goal. She is looking for Xu Nianqing. She has a hunch that Xu Nianqing will definitely appear around King Xian.
The Prince Xian's Mansion occupies a much larger area than ordinary mansions. Although it is not as luxurious as the prince's palace in the capital, it is still a very luxurious mansion in this remote place.
However, there are many people in Prince Xian's mansion now, and there are many people on guard and patrol. It is not easy to sneak in without being discovered.
Xiao Li wanted to confirm whether Xu Nianqing was there, but she didn't want to take any risks. After thinking for a while, she sent in a blank letter.
After seeing the three words "Xu Nianqing" on it, the guard at Prince Xian's Mansion took it in.
Xiao Li understood that Xu Nianqing was here.
Once we confirm that the person is tied to King Xian, then it will be easy to deal with him. We can catch him all in one fell swoop.
She has the ability to sweep away everything, so why would she take the risk of killing alone?
King Xian wanted to rebel, and Xu Nianqing happened to be involved with King Xian. This was simply perfect.
"Girl, why are you here?"
You may not meet love around the corner, but you will most likely meet your enemy.
When Xiao Li saw Jiang Zhou's mood, he could only describe it in two words: injustice.
She turned away with a cold face, but Jiang Zhou was delighted to see her again and quickly caught up with her: "Miss, my name is Jiang Zhou, may I know your name?"
Xiao Li drew his sword and threatened: "Get out!"
Jiang Zhou glanced at the knife that shone with a cold light and exclaimed, "What a good weapon."
Then he smiled at Xiao Li and said, "Miss, I have no ill intentions. Our meeting is fate. Could you please have a cup of tea?"
Xiao Li kicked Jiang Zhou, who dodged the attack. She quickly walked back, and Jiang Zhou chased after her without a second thought, then was hit hard by Xiao Li.
"Ouch!"
Jiang Zhou was kicked and flew away. He staggered to his feet, but he didn't get angry. He looked at Xiao Li's back, rubbed his stomach and laughed, "Young lady, you're really too strong."
After Xiao Li kicked Jiang Zhou, he turned around and saw Lu Ling standing at the entrance of the alley.
Today, the shocks were one after another.
He restrained his breath and walked over without looking around.
"Wait a moment."
Lu Ling raised his hand to stop her, his face unfriendly: "Miss, you hit someone and you just left like that?"
"Ah, ah, ah..." Jiang Zhou immediately came over and pulled him back: "Lu Ling, it's none of her business. I was the one who stopped her first."
Holding Lu Ling, he smiled apologetically at Xiao Li and said, "I'm sorry, it was our fault. Please forgive me, but I really don't mean any harm. If we meet next time, I hope you can tell me your name."
Xiao Li walked away with a cold face without saying a word.
Lu Ling frowned: "Are you interested in her?"
Jiang Zhou coughed lightly: "Don't talk nonsense, I just want to get to know you and make friends."
Lu Ling: "Do I look blind to you?"
Jiang Zhou was speechless: "I'm really not that deep. Right now, I just want to get to know you."
After speaking for a long time without hearing any response, he looked up and saw Lu Ling staring at the direction the girl left.
This expression frightened Jiang Zhou so much that his heart skipped a beat: "Hey, what are you doing? The girl didn't offend you."
Lu Ling was lost in thought: "She... makes me feel very familiar, but I can't remember where she is familiar..."
Jiang Zhou: "Could it be that you two have known each other before?"
Lu Ling shook his head: "Not sure."
Jiang Zhou: "If you can't think of it, forget it. Wait until I ask for your name next time we meet, and then you can think about it slowly."

On the day of King Xian's hero banquet, Xiao Li and Zi Yue went together.
Because there were too many people, many people had no seat. Zi Yue put his arm around Xiao Li's waist and went up to the roof. Although this position was far away, the view was excellent.
This venue is a martial arts arena, and the overall shape is funnel-shaped. There are five layers of steps on the four sides where people can sit, and a fighting pit in the middle that is ten feet deep.
At this moment, there was a huge cage in the middle of the pit, and inside it was a big tiger with hanging eyes. The tiger was strong and walked back and forth impatiently.
The people outside poured fresh blood outside the cage. The tiger smelled the blood and became even more violent. It couldn't wait to rush out and fight.
People are strange. If one person faces a tiger, he will be absolutely terrified and lose his soul. But as long as there are many people, even if the tiger is a hundred times more ferocious, they will only feel excited and stimulated.
"Oh my god, it's a really big tiger, so huge!"
"Who can beat this?"
"How did King Xian catch him? This is simply amazing."
"I heard that he was caught in a trap by one of King Xian's advisers. He was just a weak scholar."
"Wow, the scholar is so powerful?"
"Hey, scholars use their brains. Do you think we are reckless men who only know how to fight and kill?"
Xiao Li listened to the discussions below and sneered. They said that the scholar was, unfortunately, Xu Nianqing.
It is said that the guy first met King Xian's son by chance, and he offended him. Finally, he made a bet with him that he could catch a live tiger without hurting anyone.
Finally, he used a trick to catch the tiger, and successfully made King Xian's son look at him with admiration and introduce him to his father.
Afterwards, this man became the first counselor of King Xian, offering advice and suggestions to King Xian. Now King Xian obeys his every word.
He was also the one who caused the Heroes Banquet.
Xiao Li didn't leave today because he wanted to see what he was up to.
Zi Yue went around and came back: "Sister, King Xian hasn't arrived yet, and I haven't seen those people in silver armor."
Xiao Li looked at the group of people below and suddenly frowned. "Prince Xian is doing this to cover up the soldiers from other countries entering the city. I'm afraid this banquet has other motives."
Nearly half an hour passed.
Finally, the guard in silver armor came out with a few people.
In the middle was a middle-aged man with a big belly and a wealthy appearance. He was King Xian, and he was followed by two young men on his left and right.
One of them was dressed in brocade, he was the eldest son of King Xian, and the other was dressed in white, he was elegant and refined. Even though he couldn't see clearly from a distance, Xiao Li knew that it was Xu Nianqing and would never make a mistake.
Xiao Li's gaze swept across the people in silver armor and finally fell on Xu Nianqing.
The Silver Armor Guards got into trouble, and King Wei disappeared. These must be related to him.
As expected, he came with the memory of being an emperor. His skills and brains are much better than those of Liu Xueyin, Lu Yanzhi and others.
Yes, if this person didn't really have some ability, how could he be chosen by the world consciousness to restore order.
No one with too low ability can take the throne from her.
