Ruan Qingai stopped pretending, she nodded, "The troops have long been taken to the border. The north city gate is close to my Wencheng and the south city gate is close to Lingyucheng. The two city gates have long been blocked by me. There is a cliff on the east side of them. The official road is rugged and it is difficult for the army to withdraw. It can almost be said that it is unblocked. As long as your Xijiang River falls into me and breaks the only waterway of Lu Yanshang, he is the turtle in my jar."

"..." Qin Shuiyou was speechless.

Ruan Qingai laughed and said, "This time I can go to the banquet, if I can have peace talks, I really can't do it. Even if I attack, I will still defeat him. The five major cities of Beijunshan must be decided by me."

“…”

"Mr. Qin tried his best to help me reduce the influence of war. After all, the people were injured when the war broke out."

Qin Shuiyou sighed deeply, "Oh, I understand. I will try my best to persuade him."

After a day of rectification, Lu Yanshang's army finally set off. It is expected to arrive within two days.

The city lord's mansion was busy inside and outside, and there were orderly evacuations on the official road, and all the troops were stationed in the official road homestay.

On the day Lu Yanshang entered the city, Qin Shuyou welcomed him into the city. As expected, he saw Lu Yanshang's anxious expression.

All the troops in Xijiang were lined up to welcome him, City Lord Lu, is this giving him face or pressure?

Three thousand vs. Six thousand, even if Lu Yanshang is ready to fight back to the main city, the fight will probably be wiped out.

Lu Yanshang clearly felt that Qin Shuiyou was ready to start a war. In this alone, Lu Yanshang's confidence was suppressed by him.

He really doesn't want to start a war.

They are all the people of Daxing, and they are all good at it. Why do you have to fight back?

Lu Yanshang looked around for a while and saw that Qin Shuiyou did not see Ruan Qingai. He couldn't help but ask, "Isn't Lord Ruan here with you? Is she leaving?"

Qin Shuiyou whispered, "She didn't leave. She was eating and drinking in my mansion. She didn't plan to attend this banquet."

"Why is this?" Lu Yanshang asked.

"I heard that she had a good time with you last time, but you rejected it again and again. She said she had a bad temper and was afraid that she would lose her temper when she was at a banquet."

"snort!"

She has a bad temper? He is not good yet!

It’s better if you don’t come! He can save him from getting angry!

When he arrived at the city lord's mansion, Lu Yanshang dismounted.

Two women came towards each other.

"I've met Lord Lu." The tall woman bowed her knees first.

Lu Yanshang nodded, "Ruohan, I haven't seen each other for several years. I've become so tall? I've become more beautiful. It's really a girl who has changed a lot."

Qin Ruohan responded with a smile, "It's a pity that the little girl is not a man, otherwise she would have shared a lot of her father."

Qin Shuiyou laughed, "My eldest daughter is my heart! This future son-in-law must be a talented man, and he can choose from a thousand miles away. He must be both literary and martial, beloved by his wife, and be loyal. He must be a copy of Mr. Ni."

"Uh, hehe..." I meant that I didn't plan to marry their Lu family.

Qin Shuiyou wanted Ni Ri to be his son-in-law, but unfortunately Ni Ri already had a wife. And his sons, Lu Yanshang, were all incompetent and mediocre. In addition to eating, drinking, gamble, they were just spending money on their family.

Lu Yanshang turned his gaze to the short woman behind Qin Ruohan and asked, "Is this your second child?"

"No, this is my third child, the second child didn't come."

"Hmm? Where is your second child?" Lu Yanshang asked curiously.

Qin Shuiyou smiled and said, "My second son has gone to the Ministry of War and has already put on military uniforms."

"..." Ha? Is this old man Qin's mind broken? What does it mean to let his daughter wear military uniform?

Aren't he afraid of being irresponsible?

Qin Shuiyou greeted the third brother and said, "Qin Xiaoruan, come here quickly to pay homage to Uncle Lu."

Qin Xiaoruan jumped over and waved, "Hello, Uncle Lu!"

Lu Yanshang smiled, "The third child of the Qin family is lively by nature, and it is indeed as cute as the rumor."

"That's it, that's it. My Xiao Ruan doesn't know anything else, the naughty leader. If you are disrespectful later, Brother Lu will take care of him!"

"It's okay, it's okay, every daughter is innocent and carefree."

Qin Xiaoruan rushed over and took Lu Yanshang's arm and said, "Uncle Lu walks around, go in the house to have a drink. Will I sit next to you and chat with you later? I'm so drunk! I'm afraid that Uncle Lu can't bear it and gets drunk by me."

"Oh, you girl still want to get me drunk? Let's go, I want to see your alcohol tolerance, hahaha--"

Hahaha?

Qin Shuiyou sneered in his heart, hoping that you can laugh out loud in a while.

After all, the Hongmen Banquet is the Hongmen Banquet! Be more serious!

Qin Xiaoruan went to a seat next to Lu Yanshang and poured wine for him, "Uncle Lu, try it, is this wine delicious?"

Lu Yanshang held the wine and sniffed two sips, "Well, it smells good! It's so mellow."

"That's the wine my dad brewed himself."

Lu Yanshang said in surprise, "I didn't expect Lao Qin to make wine?"

"Uh...hehe..." Qin Shuiyou smiled awkwardly and did not answer.

Lu Yanshang turned his attention to the other side. He had met Mr. Ni Ri earlier. When he met before, he discussed with his father how to seize Wencheng. But who knew that in just a few days, in a blink of an eye, Ni Ri turned around and defected to Ruan Qingai, the slut whore, and helped her, and made his father angry to death.

The beautiful woman sitting next to him should be his young wife born in a brothel.

Lu Yanshang couldn't help but make a joke, "Mr. Ni, I heard that your wife was a red card before? She has amazing singing and dancing skills. Why not invite your wife to come out to help Yaxing at today's banquet?"

Xue Sanniang paused slightly when drinking, Ni Ri pinched her fist, and couldn't help but his wife was teased. She wanted to respond with a word, but was suppressed by Xue Sanniang.

"I remember back then, I was already a daughter in Yiwu. After marrying a wife, my arms were even more precious. How much would Lord Lu want me to come out?"

Lu Yanshang laughed and said, "Is 10,000 taels enough?"

Xue Sanniang sneered, "Of course it's not enough. At least ten million taels of gold."

Lu Yanshang narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly, "What kind of beauty do you really treat yourself as a charming person? Ten thousand taels? Do you think you are worthy?"

Xue Sanniang chuckled and asked, "What about you, City Lord Lu? How much silver do you think you are worth?"

“…”

"Is one or two enough?"

"you!"

Xue Sanniang snorted and said, "My Lord Lu, my Lord said something that you can say, and I can say too. Since everyone is sitting at the banquet, be more polite, don't bring those boring games where children quarrel every family to the stage, so that Lord Qin can make a joke."

Lu Yanshang's expression was blue and purple, "What a clever woman. People who don't know would think you are an official lady."

Xue Sanniang couldn't help laughing, "The official lady has a pedantic mind and has instilled the concept of men's three obediences and four virtues since she was a child. Please let them come to me and see how many moves they can use in my hands?"

“…”

The scene was once awkward, and Ni Ri didn't plan to smooth things over for Lu Yanshang. After all, he humiliated his wife, and Young Master Ni Ri felt angry.
