The prince’s mansion has a brilliant wall of lights.

A maid stood at the stairs and reported to the prince Liang Chengkang who was half lying on the couch: "There are four people in the car, in addition to the Eighth Princess, the Ninth Princess and Ji Da, there is also a young man carrying a bamboo knife. According to the Eighth Prince, the young man with a bamboo knife was the gentleman he invited back from the Xingtan."

Liang Chengkang looked motionless, opened his mouth, and the maid sitting next to him who was peeling oranges carefully put a piece of orange in his mouth.

"Well, I understand." His Highness the Crown Prince spoke while chewing oranges. "Give me instructions to hold a welcome banquet for Prince Yan in the Crown Prince's Mansion."

"Yes." The maid bowed and retreated.

Liang Chengkang sat up, clapped his hands, stared at somewhere and fell into deep thought. After a moment, he said to himself: "Mr. Xingtan, who cuts the river with one knife..."

"Your Highness, do you want to send someone to try it?" a maid next to him suggested.

Liang Chengkang shook his head, "It's not that he sent someone to test it, but to invite him to come and verify his true self. I want to see what kind of bamboo sword that can break the river?"

Speaking of this, Liang Chengkang raised his hand to the maid in red dress standing beside him, "Go and invite three gentlemen."

After the maid in red dress left, Liang Chengkang lay down again, staring at the ceiling with his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a while, another maid came in and reported: "Your Majesty summoned His Highness the Eighth Highness and the Young Mr. Xingtan in the Imperial Study."

Liang Chengkang lay there and waved his hand without saying a word, thinking, "Young brother can really endure it, you can really act."

The eighth prince Liang Yan, who can be tolerant and play, came out of the imperial study room and was unhappy. He had escaped from the palace so many times before, but his father always turned a blind eye and didn't care at all. Unexpectedly, he was summoned as soon as he came back from outside this time. The influence of Xingtan was beyond his imagination.

"I wonder what my father will talk to fellow Daoist Li?" Liang Yan looked back and walked into the corridor to wait for Guo Dalu. He was noticed by his father so quickly. He was happy and worried. Needless to say, he was worried that his "tiger roaring abyss picture" with "painting tiger skin and bones" had not yet taken shape. He was not sure whether he could afford the attention of his father.

As night falls, the sky is full of stars.

Liang Yan was just watching it, and suddenly he saw two black dots flying over the royal city.

The black dots are approaching.

Under the reflection of the lights of the royal city, two figures of black and gray came from the sword.

The royal city formation did not respond, and the Tianyi Holy Guard hidden in the dark did not stop them. The identities of these two people were self-evident, the second of the three great worshipers in the Prince's Mansion, the black robe and the gray robe.

Those three worshippers did not know what agreement they had reached with King Liang, and made a great vow to guard the peaceful city for life, and never leave the city if they were saints.

However, Liang Yan had only seen two black robe and gray robe since he was a child. As for the white robe worshiper... Like other brothers and sisters, he only heard of his name and never saw him.

"What are the prince asking two worshipers to enter the palace at this time?" Liang Yan was puzzled.

After a while, Guo Dalu came out of the Imperial Study room and Liang Yan came forward with an unconcealed inquiry on his face.

Guo Dalu said: "Your father - Ling Zun only talked about some issues in cultivation and knowledge, and did not say anything about you."

Liang Yan laughed at me.

The two returned to the Eighth Prince's Mansion side by side, but unexpectedly they met the maid of the Prince's Mansion. The maid said that the prince had already set up a banquet in the mansion to welcome the Eighth Prince. The other princes were already waiting for the Eighth Prince and the Young Master Xingtan in the Prince's Mansion.

Liang Yan and Guo Dalu looked at each other and sought his opinions. Guo Dalu nodded slightly.

Liang Yan said: "Let's go."

The maid led the way, and the three of them walked towards the Prince's Mansion. Along the way, Guo Dalu could clearly feel that countless pairs of eyes were staring at him in the dark of the palace, like a camera in the world.

The three of them walked around and came to the prince's mansion. When they looked up, they saw two big red lanterns hanging high. Guo Dalu paused for a moment, suddenly smiled inexplicably, and entered the mansion with the maid.

In the prince's mansion, the small banquet was held early, except for the married princesses, the other princesses and princesses were all present.

With the arrival of Liang Yan and Guo Dalu, the princes and princesses of the Prince's Mansion all turned their eyes to each other with different expressions.

Liang Chengkang even stood up and clapped his hands and said, "Brother Eighth brother has worked hard for this mini-dress tour!

"Welcome to my prince's mansion."

The prince stood up, and the others naturally stood up.

Liang Yan first bowed and thanked the prince, and then met all the brothers and sisters.

Guo Dalu is a master in the practice of practicing Buddhism and is also a sixth-level master. He is a fellow Taoist with Liang Wang Shang. Naturally, he does not have to give any great gifts to the prince and bow with a kind smile.

After sitting down, everyone praised the eighth prince's achievements in governing the floods in Cangzhou. Liang Yan hurriedly pushed the credit to Guo Dalu. Guo Dalu smiled and watched quietly, and found that there were people in the room. Except for the lively ninth princess Liang Hongli, everyone else was obviously exercising their acting skills, a harmonious and subtle atmosphere.

Is this the royal family?

Guo Dalu suddenly felt bored.

At this time, Prince Liang Chengkang took the initiative to look at Guo Dalu and said, "Sir, since the news of your sword breaking Canghe spread, I have been looking forward to seeing your bamboo sword with my own eyes, I don't know..."

Guo Dalu said gently: "Then forget it. Your level is low, and it will be of no benefit to you when you meet him."

Whoosh ~

It was like a gust of cold wind blew, and the atmosphere was suddenly very awkward.

Guo Dalu hurriedly said, "Did I hurt you if I say this?"

Liang Chengkang smiled casually, "Mr. is telling the truth, I won't care."

Guo Dalu nodded, "That's good." Then he added: "But if there are any entourages or strong subordinates in His Royal Highness's mansion, he can come out and compete with me. I can take the opportunity to let everyone see how powerful my bamboo sword is."

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and even the two cunning and deep-sized His Highnesses, the Fourth Prince and the Seventh Prince, were stunned for a moment.

As for Prince Liang Yan, he didn't know how to answer the conversation for a while.

The reason why he held this welcoming banquet was to let the three worshipers teach Guo Dalu a lesson to suppress Lao Ba's arrogance.

Although the white robe worshiper once again directly rejected this boring invitation, the black robe and the gray robe are also masters of kendo with profound realm and powerful strength, and are sure to give the Eighth Prince a little color.

but.

According to the arrangement of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, it is not time to start. He has to lay the groundwork first, and then bring the topic to the competition without any trace. Finally, he asked Mr. Xingtan to "expose one hand to the broken river sword, so that everyone can see the eyes", and then "It would be boring to dance the sword by one person, but I asked XX to help the competition" to successfully promote the competition.

But now he was about to lay the groundwork, and the other party took the initiative to invite the fight, so direct and did not follow the routine at all.

"Ah this..."

Liang Chengkang hesitated and said, "Is this okay?"

Guo Dalu said: "I have no problem. Do you have any problems? If there is any problem..."

His Highness the Crown Prince waved his hand: "I have no problem either!"

Guo Dalu smiled and stood up: "Come on."

Liang Chengkang no longer covered up, looked back at the two worshippers, and stood up in black robe.

Suddenly, the young Mr. Xingtan said, "He can't do it, please change to the person wearing a gray robe."

The three tributes in the Prince's Mansion are black, gray and white, and their strength levels are also sorted from black to gray and then to white.

Listening to Guo Dalu's words so contemptuous, Black Robe was furious on the spot, and immediately drew her sword and pointed directly at Guo Dalu.

Although the black robe ranks third among the three worshipers, its sword intent is quite concise and pure, otherwise he would not dare to draw the sword in front of so many princesses.

At this moment, the sword was unsheathed, and the next moment, the sword had arrived in front of Guo Dalu's throat.

Its speed is like lightning.

bite!

The tip of the sword did not pierce the throat, but penetrated a wine glass.

The black-robed swordsman was startled and had no time to withdraw his sword. His wrist was cut and his long sword was taken.

Zheng--

Guo Dalu raised his hand and inserted the snatched sword into the black robe scabbard, saying, "If you practice, you will not be false. If you say you can't do it, you won't do it, and you won't do it if you don't accept it."

"Next!"
