I am a prince in Zhutian Films

Chapter 165 Chu Zhao and Baili Dongjun

When Baili Dongjun left the courtyard, there was no one outside. He weighed the sword in his hand and headed towards the marquis' mansion.

When he was walking out of the street, a pedestrian who couldn't be more ordinary passed by him. Baili Dongjun turned his head slightly and glanced at him, but unfortunately the pedestrian seemed to be in a hurry and walked away quickly.

On the rooftop not far away, Wenhujiu squatted there and took a sip of wine. "The Fire of the Sky, the Baili family hid it very well, very interesting. My good sister must have hidden a lot of things from me, but it's true. After all, she married into the Baili family and is the daughter-in-law of the Baili family. Should I inform that little uncle?"

At this time, Yunlai Inn.

Chu Zhao had just seen off the innkeeper who came to pay him a visit.

Wang Yanxiu, the name of the innkeeper, is the son of the deputy commander of the Western Chu Imperial Guard.

He left home in his early years and wandered around the world, marrying a woman from the underworld. Later, his wife died in a feud between the underworld and he returned to Western Chu with his daughter.

But before he could get back to Lausanne, Western Chu had already been destroyed.

However, he also saved his life and stayed in the former capital city of Lausanne, where he opened the Yunlai Inn and secretly helped the survivors of Western Chu in the city.

Five years ago, it was discovered that someone was secretly transferring the remnants of Western Chu. He followed the clues and found the organization, becoming a nail buried in Qiandong City.

Chu Zhao had not expected that he and the innkeeper had such a fate. He couldn't help but laugh and shook his head. He glanced at the invitation sent by the Baili family on the table, then sat down cross-legged and began to practice.

In the dead of night, two figures entered the courtyard silently, causing Chu Zhao, who was meditating, to open his eyes instantly: "Come in."

"No way (Wutian) to meet the uncle."

Chu Zhao stood up, sat at the table, waved his hand and said, "No need to be so polite, sit down!"

"Thank you, uncle."

Chu Zhao personally poured a cup of tea for the two of them, drank a sip of the tea, and said calmly: "No use, no angel, do you know what the relationship is between the Confucian Immortal and Xi Chu, and me?"

The Confucian Immortal Gu Chen can be called a national hero of Western Chu. As a man of martial arts, he has never received a salary from Western Chu, but he took the initiative to offer his medicine man skills to help Western Chu resist Beili. He even stepped forward when Western Chu was destroyed and his family was ruined, and guarded the country alone with the sword immortal Gu Mo.

In a sense, they are also Chu Zhao's saviors.

If they had not guarded the national border, Zhao An might not have been able to take him away.

Chu Zhao has always respected the two immortals, Sword and Confucian. Now Tianwaitian actually dares to set his sights on Gu Chen. It's simply... courting death!
Wu Neng and Wu Tian looked at each other and saw panic in each other's eyes.

Wu Tian quickly stood up and bowed, "Sir, we don't really want to come either."

Chu Zhao motioned Wu Tian to sit down and chuckled, "It seems that Yue Qing and Wu Xiang didn't take my words to heart."

Unable to take over the conversation, he smiled bitterly and said, "Son-in-law, you misunderstood. We are not here for the Confucian Immortal, but for Baili Dongjun. The Second Miss and Wu Xiang asked us to take Baili Dongjun back to Tianwai Tian during the chaos."

Just listen to this, anyone who believes it is a fool.

In other words, he came to Qiandong City in person, otherwise Wufa and Wutan would definitely take action against Gu Chen.

Chu Zhao looked back at Wu Fa and couldn't help but find it a little funny: "With Xi Chu Jian Ge's appearance, Qiandong City will be a little chaotic, but with just the two of you, you want to take Baili Dongjun away from Qiandong City. Aren't you underestimating Baili Luochen?"

Hearing this teasing tone, Wu Fa finally breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "We also know that, so the Second Miss and Wu Xiangshi have another word, if things can't be done, retreat!"

“They are decisive.”

Chu Zhao said, and suddenly looked outside the door, saying leisurely: "You came here so late at night, aren't you here to have a drink with me?"

"You don't like drinking, why would I ask you to drink?"

As these words were uttered, the door was pushed open and a figure walked in.

Chu Zhao sat on the chair and looked at the newcomer with a smile. Wufa and Wutan suddenly stood up and stood beside Chu Zhao in a protective manner. Wutan asked with a wary look on his face, "Are you from the Wen family? Are you warming up a pot of wine?"

"Someone from the outer world?"

Wen Hujiu glanced at Wufawutian and was quite shocked. He smiled at Chu Zhao and said, "I didn't expect that even Tianwaitian is your power. I admire you!"

"It seems that you, the young master of the Wen family, are not qualified enough. My sworn brother still has something to tell you."

Chu Zhao smiled and shook his head, saying, "Tianwaitian is Tianwaitian, Yuelu City is Yuelu City, but we are also one of our own, so please take a seat."

The three of them sat down, and Chu Zhao poured a cup of tea for the warm wine before saying, "Tell me, what's the matter with you looking for me so late at night?"

"Have you received the invitation from the Baili family?" He took a sip of tea after warming the pot of wine, with a look of disgust on his face, and put the teacup down directly.

Chu Zhao hummed, gestured to warm the pot of wine and continued.

"Someone from the Baili family asked me to poison you at the banquet in three days."

"Bai Li Luo Chen is so tasteless?"

"That's not what he meant." Wen Hujiu shook his head and smiled, "It's Li Huo. You probably haven't heard of him at your age. He's not a simple guy. I fought him today, and I didn't win."

"The best assassin in the martial arts world, the elder brother of the killer Wang Litian, and the one who secretly protects Baili Dongjun. Of course, in addition to him, there is also the shadow warrior of the Baili family who is secretly protecting your nephew."

"Shadow Warrior?"

"You don't think the Baili family only has one Pofeng Army, do you?" Chu Zhao smiled and said calmly, "In addition to the Pofeng Army in the open, the Baili family also has Shadow Warriors and Jingzhe in secret. I don't know the exact number of people, but these people are not weak in skills. At least they are masters of the Vajra Ordinary Realm."

Wen Hujiu was shocked, shocked by the Baili family's secret, and even more shocked by Chu Zhao's understanding of the Baili family. He quickly drank a sip of wine to calm down: "The Shadow Warrior and Jingzhe you mentioned are definitely the most secretive things of the Baili family. I'm afraid my sister may not know about it. How do you know so much?"

"I have my sources."

Chu Zhao smiled faintly and asked, "Lihuo acted on his own initiative. Did you tell Baili Luochen?"

"I told you, Lihuo is imprisoned."

"What a pity." Chu Zhao sighed with some regret and asked curiously: "Then what are you doing here so late at night?"

"I want to ask the person in Qiandong City, what do you think?"

Chu Zhao said calmly: "Kill him."

"killed?"

Wenhujiu stood up suddenly and asked in confusion, "He is your Western Chu Confucian Immortal, you want to kill him?"

"All forces want Xi Chu Jian Ge and the Art of Medicine Man. Even your father... probably doesn't want Xi Chu Jian Ge, but he definitely wants the Art of Medicine Man. Only his death is the most appropriate solution, isn't it?"

He warmed the pot of wine, thought for a moment, and then sat down in silence.

"No, why are you sitting down? Why don't you leave?"

When Wenhujiu heard this, he knew that Chu Zhao had something to discuss with the people from Tianwaitian. Although he was curious, he didn't ask too much, so he just got up and said goodbye and left.

As soon as Wenhu wine was gone, Wufa asked, "Sir, why did the Baili family invite you to the banquet?"

Chu Zhao shook his head: "You may not believe it if I tell you, I don't know either."

"Does the Baili family know your identity?" He couldn't ask any further.

"I know. I asked Mr. Gu to tell Baili Luochen."

"Are you planning to attend the banquet?" Wutan suddenly asked with a complicated tone.

On the one hand, he didn't want Chu Zhao to go to the banquet, because he felt that the banquet held by the Baili family was a Hongmen Banquet, and the purpose was to kill Chu Zhao. If Chu Zhao died, their Tianwaitian would lose a powerful helper. On the other hand, he wanted Chu Zhao to go, because once Chu Zhao died in the Baili family, then the power in Chu Zhao's hands would fall into the hands of Miss Yue Yao, and also into the hands of their Tianwaitian.

In this way, they will have a greater chance of restoring their Beique country.

After all, Chu Zhao’s attitude towards Tianwaitian is very clear. Unless Tianwaitian is facing a life-and-death situation, he will not help Tianwaitian with all his strength.

Chu Zhao looked at Wu Tian deeply, and said with a meaningful smile: "I do plan to go and see what that old fellow Baili Luo Chen is up to. Is Wu Tian worried about my safety?"

Wu Tian felt as if his thoughts were seen through, and his heart trembled inexplicably. He quickly said, "Son-in-law, although Baili Luochen can be considered upright, the other people in the Baili family must be guarded against. I think it is better not to go."

Chu Zhao shook his head: "I have already decided to attend the banquet, Wu Tianshi, there is no need to persuade me anymore. I asked you to come here because I have something to ask of you."

Wufa and Wutian stood up in a hurry: "What are you talking about, sir? If you give us an order, we will go through fire and water without hesitation!"

Half an hour later.

Wufawutian and Chu Zhao both left the courtyard.

Wufa and Wutan returned to their residence, while Chu Zhao went to Gu Chen's residence.

Unexpectedly, when I came back, I met Baili Dongjun who was coming out of the small medicine shop and preparing to go home.

"Bai Li Dong Jun."

Baili Dongjun looked over and found that it was Chu Zhao who called him. He was stunned for a moment: "Chu Zhao?!"

"Looking for a place to chat?"

Baili Dongjun was silent for a moment and asked, "Where are you going?"

"You are the little bully of Qiandong City, and you ask me?" Chu Zhao said unhappily.

Baili Dongjun smiled embarrassedly: "Come with me."

The two of them walked around and came to a yard. As soon as they entered the door, they smelled a faint smell of alcohol, which made Chu Zhao frown slightly.

“Is this a wine-making workshop?”

Baili Dongjun nodded and hummed, "Would you like to have a drink at the place where I brew wine?"

"I don't like drinking. Drinking can easily cause trouble."

Baili Dongjun couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but he heard Chu Zhao change the subject and said with a smile: "But I still want to try the wine of the future wine fairy, but I have to tell you in advance that I don't have any money on me."

"You are a prince, are you still short of money for drinking?" Baili Dongjun rolled his eyes and then entered a room.

Soon, he took out the wine bottle and wine utensils from the room.

The porcelain bottles and glasses for wine have a delicate texture, smooth glaze, pure color, without a trace of impurities, and a warm luster, just like ivory white.

It is also extremely comfortable to the touch, smooth and warm, giving people a feeling as warm as jade.

Chu Zhao couldn't help but praise: "Let's not talk about whether the wine you brew is good or not, just the wineware is quite good, which makes me look forward to it."

Baili Dongjun snorted proudly, "Of course, good wine needs to be served in good wine vessels, otherwise the taste will be reduced by three points. If it is served in a good wine vessel, not only will the aroma of the wine not be lost, but it will also increase its aroma and artistic conception. These white jade porcelains are just barely enough."

As he spoke, Baili Dongjun poured Chu Zhao a glass.

It is warm in the throat, mellow and long-lasting, with a faint scent of osmanthus.

"Nice wine, what's its name?"

"Guixiang, this is the first time I brewed wine myself after learning how to brew wine from my master."

Chu Zhao shook his head: "The name is appropriate, but for wine lovers, it lacks some artistic conception and loses some luster!"

Baili Dongjun was stunned: "Master also said so, what do you think it should be called?"

Chu Zhao thought for a moment and said, "Guanghan, what do you think?"

Baili Dongjun thought for a moment, clapped his hands and said, "When the osmanthus flowers are in full bloom, it coincides with the Mid-Autumn Festival. In the mythology, the moon palace is called Guanghan Palace, and there are osmanthus trees outside Guanghan Palace. Guanghanlu, what a good name! You say you don't like to drink, but you are actually a wine lover. Do you want to try my other wines?"

Chu Zhao put down his wine glass and shook his head, "One glass is enough. I didn't ask you to drink today."

"Yeah, what did you ask me to do?"

"Didn't we say we should chat?"

"What to talk about?"

Chu Zhao choked: "I really don't know what to talk to you about. I just happened to meet you and called you. Is there anything you want to talk about?"

"Yes, can you give me ten years?"

"What do you mean?" Chu Zhao was a little confused.

"I know the hatred between my family and you. Can you give me ten years? After ten years, we will compete to see who is better. If I win, you will let go of your hatred and stop seeking revenge on my Baili family. Not only my grandfather and father, but the entire Baili family."

"What if you lose?"

Baili Dongjun said proudly: "I won't lose!"

"It's good to be confident, but you are too confident. You are not qualified to protect the Baili family by yourself."

Baili Dongjun nodded: "I know you are very powerful. You are the most dazzling person I have ever seen. Even the Eighth Young Master Beili I have seen is far inferior to you. That's why I said ten years later."

When Baili Dongjun praises people, he is always very sincere, without any flattery, making people feel that every word he says comes from the heart.

So even though he is naturally opposed to the Baili family, he doesn't hate the protagonist Baili Dongjun so much.

"Bai Li Dong Jun, you are too naive. Many things are not what you want them to be. Do you know how many things will happen in ten years? Not to mention whether your Bai Li family will attack me first, once my identity is exposed, do you think the emperor in Tianqi City will let your Bai Li family go to attack Yuelu City?"

Chu Zhao smiled and said, "Once the war begins, both sides will stop at nothing to win. Assassinating the enemy's commander is also a means, and it is a very effective means. Do you think I will agree to you?"

Baili Dongjun was silent for a long time before he said, "If it's as you said, then we will have to rely on our own abilities on the battlefield. But if there is no war and my Baili family doesn't attack you first, can you agree to my ten-year agreement?"

"That's possible." Chu Zhao had never thought of relying on personal force to kill Baili Luochen and Baili Chengfeng for revenge. They were both famous generals, and the best fate for them should be to die on the battlefield.

Baili Dongjun smiled, then sighed, as if asking Chu Zhao, or as if asking himself: "If there is no hatred between us, we will definitely become good friends, right?"

Chu Zhao asked back: "Who said that enemies can't be friends? Aren't your grandfather and Xi Chu Ru Jian Erxian friends?"

Baili Dongjun was stunned for a moment, then he laughed: "It seems like what you said is right."

"It's not like, it's true. Enemies can be friends, but we won't be friends."

The smile on Baili Dongjun's face froze.

"why?"

"Because I don't want to be friends with you, go away!"

Chu Zhao stood up, and after a few seconds of shaking, he disappeared from Baili Dongjun's sight and blended into the darkness...
