After the envoy entered the city, it was another busy scene. Xu Haifeng saw that it was already late and thought about going to Wu Wangfu for a banquet, so he made an excuse that there was something in the military and left the large team. Only Su Chunwei and others were left to go to the palace to pay respects and receive orders.

  If it were any other general who had acted in such an unorthodox manner, Su Chunwei would have spoken out against him directly. However, facing the illustrious leader of the Black Flag Army, he deliberated repeatedly and finally chose not to mention it, pretending that he had not seen anything.

  He first settled Lin Wanwan and Liu Ting in the military camp outside the city. The Blood Wine Warriors were different from ordinary soldiers, even if they were high-ranking masters, they could not pass through their ubiquitous patrol network. This was also the reason why Li Yanbo made three trips to the Black Flag Army's camp, but ultimately returned without success.

  He then went into the city and paid his respects to his adoptive father Fang Lian Tian.

  Arrived at Fang's residence, after a report was made, unexpectedly it was Fang Yingying who came out to greet.

  This Miss Fang led him, unrestrained and recklessly rampaging through the Fang estate. Those servants who saw this scene were all shocked and amazed, instantly looking at this new noble of the Fang family with a different gaze.

  "Little sister, is this your boudoir?" Xu Haifeng asked in surprise as he saw the room filled with swords and blades.

  Fang Ying nodded and looked at Xu Haifeng, saying seriously: "Big brother, I've never liked the traditional feminine skills since I was a child. I only admired the bravery and heroism of my brothers. So, I really can't compare to all the sisters. However, this is just my nature. General Jiang taught me that it's easy to change one's circumstances, but hard to change one's nature. If I forced myself to change my personality, then I wouldn't be myself anymore. Big brother, you should think carefully - can you really accept a daughter like me?"

  Xu Haifeng felt a pang of sympathy in his heart, and through his spiritual awareness, he naturally knew that Fang Yingying was also anxious and uneasy when she said this, apparently extremely tense.

  He pulled Fang Ying's small hand, revealing a gentle smile: "Ying'er, long before I met you, I had heard Brother Xiangming mention you. At that time, I was very curious, how could there be such an unusual girl in the world? Until after meeting you, I couldn't forget your heroic and elegant appearance, nor could I forget your straightforward and lovely nature. Even in Xiongnu, I never forgot for a moment, are you satisfied with what I said?"

  Hong's pretty face lit up with a joyful smile, she looked up bravely at Xu Haifeng and said: "Since big brother doesn't despise little sister, then little sister will never betray big brother for the rest of her life."

  Xu Haifeng grasped the jade-like hand of this young maiden tightly and suddenly thought of something, asking: "What about your adoptive father?"

  He has been in Fang's mansion for some time, how come he still hasn't seen Fang Ling Tian? Even if he is busy with official duties, it's impossible for him to ignore his adopted son and future son-in-law.

  "Since Su Chunwei had an audience with the Emperor, His Majesty has summoned Father and he hasn't returned yet." Fang Yingying explained.

  It turns out that Su Chunwei must have reported the alliance between the Xiongnu and the Qiang people to the emperor, causing Emperor Huan of Han to panic, so he summoned several trusted ministers to discuss countermeasures.

  In the imperial court alone, since there is this extremely large traitor of the Cheng family, no matter how they plot, the outcome will not be optimistic.

  Xu Haifeng had originally intended to reveal the matter of Cheng's family to Fang Lingtian and let him make a decision.

  This is no trivial matter; even if there were solid evidence, it couldn't be made public lightly.

  Otherwise, it would inevitably provoke the Cheng family to rebel ahead of time. Even if the rebellion can be quelled, the Great Han will suffer greatly and will no longer have the strength to resist the joint attack of the two great empires.

  If the Xiongnu and the Romans hadn't made a move yet, and the Han people had already started fighting each other to the death, then that would be called a big mess.

  It's just that since Emperor Han Xian has summoned all the officials at this time, it's unknown when they can be dismissed. Such a sudden major event is worth discussing throughout the night.

  Looking up at the sky, the sun had already set in the west. Xu Haifeng sighed and said: "I won't be able to wait for my adoptive father any longer, I have to go to Wu Wangfu for a banquet."

  Fang Yingying grasped his large hand and said: "Big brother, I'll go with you."

  Xu Haifeng burst out laughing and said: "Yinger, even if big brother is useless, he can't bring you down. Don't worry, nothing will happen to me."

  Fang Ying thought that he had already grasped the profound and mysterious spiritual power, in any case, self-protection was never a problem, so she no longer insisted.

  Under the leadership of a lower-ranking official from Fang Manor, Xu Haifeng came alone to Wu Wangfu. Not one of the six top-notch experts from the Black Flag Army was by his side.

  This was not his blind arrogance, but rather he was exceptionally perceptive at this moment. If there were any unexpected events, only intuition would be able to sense them. Moreover, with his cultivation level, unless a super high-level master personally took action, who else in the world could possibly hold him back?

  The Wu King's mansion is located outside the imperial palace, but it is not far away, which shows that the five temples below have won the favor of Emperor Xian of Han.

  The residence of the king is naturally decorated with elegance and refinement, simple yet unconventional.

  As soon as they entered the Wang Mansion, Zhang Zihua came out with a smile to greet them. After exchanging pleasantries for a moment, under the host's lead, they arrived at the main hall.

  Xu Haifeng had barely sat down when Liu Zhengqi emerged from the inner chamber.

  Helpless, Xu Haifeng had to get up and pay his respects. Fortunately, he had been promoted to deputy general, one of the high-ranking generals, unless it was an audience with the emperor or the crown prince, otherwise there was no need to perform that kneeling ceremony.

  "I will see you at the Wu King's palace later."

  Liu Zhengqi stepped forward quickly, supported him with one hand and smiled: "General Xu, today you and I will not observe the etiquette of monarch and subject, but only talk about the beauty of nature, so this courtesy is not necessary, right?"

  Xu Haifeng secretly admired him, although he had only met him and the Crown Prince once, but this person's depth of character was far superior to that of the Crown Prince, no wonder Fang Lingchen's evaluation of him was so high.

  "Thanks so much, Your Highness." Xǔ Hǎi said with a smile.

  Under Liu Zhengqi's lead, the three of them sat at a round table. It can be seen that today's banquet is indeed as Zhang Zihua said, just a family dinner, so they don't separate seats.

  "General Xu, on this trip to Xiongnu, you defeated the two countries' three great masters, and elevated the prestige of our Great Han Empire. I, Xiao Wang, admire you greatly. This first cup of wine is offered by me on behalf of my father, the Emperor, to toast you." Liu Zhengqi raised his cup and drank it in one gulp, saying:

  "I dare not, all I have done are trivial matters, not worth Your Excellency's praise." Xǔ Hǎi Fēng said humbly after taking a sip.

  Liu Zhengqi burst out laughing and said, "Not being arrogant after achieving success is truly the spirit of a great Han hero. Well done, good fellow! Little Wang, let's toast him again." After finishing speaking, he raised his cup filled with fine wine by Zhang Zihua and drank it in one gulp.

  Xu Haifeng smiled slightly and raised his cup for a toast, saying: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your undeserved praise. I am humbled."

  Liu Zhengqi put down his wine cup and said loudly: "With wine but no joy, isn't that a waste of this beautiful scenery?"

  Having said that, he clapped his hands. Suddenly, a burst of instrumental music came from the back room.

  Almost at the same time, four maidservants carried in a square wooden chest and placed it in the center of the hall.

  Liu Zhengqi smiled and asked: "General Xu may guess what is hidden in this box?"

  Xu Haifeng took a glance, his spiritual awareness had already sensed that there was someone hidden inside, but he didn't know what Liu Zhengqi's intention was in doing so, and shook his head saying: "This general can't guess."

  Liu Zhengqi burst out laughing and struck the small bell beside him, its clear and crisp sound echoing through the hall.

  The wooden box suddenly split in all directions, and the spotless floor that had been wiped clean earlier showed no signs of dust or debris.

  The music in my ears becomes soft and touching, winding and misty, as if the sound of intimacy, making people blush.

  The person in the box was a half-naked woman wrapped in transparent gauze, she danced with the music, extremely provocative. A piece of gauze fluttered up and down with her undulating body, her snow-white skin appeared and disappeared, making people's blood vessels swell, and their desire burn fiercely.

  The girl finished her dance and bowed to the three men.

  Xu Haifeng only then saw her appearance clearly, although not as good as Lin Wanxian and Tang Rou'er, but already not inferior to Fang Yingying, can be called the most beautiful in the world.

  "This woman's name is Yuna Ito, a beauty from the distant land of Fusang. She was purchased by the imperial servants and now our king presents her to you, General." Liu Zhengqi pointed at the woman.

  Xu Haifeng looked at his bright smile and secretly sighed. There is no free lunch in the world, since Wu Wang sent out such a heavy gift, the return he wants may not be something that can be borne.

  "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. However, I have a virtuous wife at home and this woman is not easy to place, so please withdraw the imperial edict." Xǔ Hǎifēng sincerely declined.

  Liu Zhengqi burst out laughing and shook his head, saying: "A real man shouldn't be afraid of his wife. General Xu, you're not joking, are you? Since the general is too embarrassed, then I'll do a good deed for once. Zihua, arrange for this woman to be sent to the Black Flag Army's camp."

  "Yes..." Zhang Zihua responded with a single word, stood up and took the girl away.

  Xu Haifeng saw him send away Zhang Zihua and the beautiful woman, knowing that he was about to get to the point, so he didn't stop him anymore, but just looked at him coldly, waiting to see what would happen next.

  "A great Han dynasty eastern expedition sailed hundreds of miles, and there was an island nation called Fusang. The land is inhabited by people who are also known as bandits. Although they have a small population and weak power, they produce many beautiful women, it's indeed a strange place." Liu Zhengqi personally filled the cup with wine for Xu Haifeng and said to himself.

  "Thank you, Your Highness. The world is vast and full of wonders, I'm just a humble learner with limited knowledge, but this is the first time I've heard of it." Xǔ Hǎifēng thanked him calmly.

  Liu Zhengqi saw that he was unmoved, and knew that it would be useless to beat around the bush any longer. He too was a wise and decisive person, so he got straight to the point: "Today, the King of Japan has invited you, and there are actually two things he wishes to request of General."

  Xu Haifeng slowly asked: "I'm afraid I'm dull-witted, please speak clearly, Your Highness."

  Liu Zhengqi looked into his eyes and said word by word: "The first thing is to ask General Xu to help me with one arm, let me ascend to the throne of the nine five."
