Arknights is too real, right?

Chapter 895 The Untold Lie

Because Sister Qianye was in high spirits, the three of them went shopping until nightfall.

As the capital of Dongzhou, it is naturally no less lively at night. Although it is not as flashy with neon lights as in Victoria, there are basically electrified street lights on the main streets, and there are also bright large lanterns in front of the shops on the side streets.

There are all kinds of weird trinkets, as well as fine wine and food.

At least on the surface, the Sakurawu family's rule over Dongzhou is quite good, of course, it is limited to Dongzhou Mansion.

Sister Qianye has not been so happy for a long time. With two "brothers" by her side, she seems to have regained the feeling she had when she was a child.

Since adulthood, her two brothers rarely returned to their family and basically stayed in the military camp all year round. Her best playmate Sakura Wuyun also worked hard for the family.

As a woman, she cannot go to the battlefield, and it is difficult for her to serve the Sakurawu family. She can only stay in the family and wait for marriage.

According to the current situation, there are basically only two directions for her future engagement.

First, the Sakurawu family stabilized Dongzhou, and the head of the family, who was the father, recruited outstanding "outsiders" to become sons-in-law.

Secondly, the war between the Sakurabu family and the Nishimiya family is tense, and the winner cannot be determined in a short time. If the two sides want to resolve their conflicts, the best way is to marry.

There are many precedents for this kind of thing. When the time comes, she will marry into the Nishinomiya family and through the relationship between the "in-laws", the conflict will be temporarily settled. Of course, it will only be temporary.

Dongzhou Mansion is extremely lively tonight, because tomorrow is the family head's birthday banquet, and even the people will celebrate together.

To welcome this moment, residents set off simple fireworks outside the city the night before.

"boom!"

The simple fireworks exploding in the night sky were not spectacular in Xia Feng's eyes, nor could they be called beautiful.

But in Sakurawu Qianye's eyes, it seemed like the most beautiful moment in the world.

"so beautiful!"

Her cold little hands unconsciously held the "brothers" on both sides. Under the light of the fireworks, her brows were full of expectation.

"Brother Yun, third brother, and the Yingwu family will definitely settle the dispute with the Nishinomiya family and let Dongzhou return to stability and peace."

Ying Wuyun noticed Qianye's mood and comforted him with a smile.

"That's for sure. The Yingwu family has a solid foundation and many strong generals. Coupled with the hidden masters like the third brother who have joined the family, this war will definitely subside."

"kindness."

Ying Wuyun's words made Qianye Tianzhen feel relieved, but Xia Feng, who was standing on the other side, did not say anything.

Because he knew that no matter what he said at this moment, it was a lie.

the next day.

Today is the birthday party for the head of the family, Sakura Takeyama, and the entire mansion has been busy since early in the morning.

In the morning, invited people from all walks of life arrived at Dongzhou Mansion.

There are subordinates who manage the surrounding large cities, such as Ying Wuyun's father, and various business tycoons, such as cloth merchants from all three places in Dongzhou, Xichuan, Shenyewan, big drug sellers, big salt merchants, etc.

And those men with serious faces and murderous intent were all military generals from the Yingwu family who came from various battlefields to celebrate their birthdays. Among them were famous generals who were well-known throughout the Eastern Kingdom.

Throughout the afternoon, Xia Feng stayed in his room and turned a deaf ear to the noise outside.

It was not until evening that he heard a shout from a servant.

"Your Excellency Frey is here!"

Hearing the name he thought about day and night, the only left eye under the white fox mask finally opened.

If there were anyone else in the room at this time, they would definitely be shocked by Xia Feng's sudden burst of murderous intent, making their legs weak.

This is naked hatred, a desire for revenge that has accumulated over several days and nights.

Night falls.

The Sakurawu family's birthday party officially begins.

Because of the large number of guests, the Sakurawu family directly set up the banquet in the spacious courtyard, with delicious food and wine on the table, and singing and dancing performances in the middle.

Guests from all walks of life gathered together and sat around the outside of the huge courtyard.

In front of the main room in the middle, the head of the Sakurawu family, Sakurawu Shanxiong, was sitting surrounded by people.

The wine was filled, and the guests raised their glasses in congratulations.

"I wish the master of the Shanxiong family a long life!"

"May the God of Heaven accompany the Shanxiong family and guard our Dadongzhou!"

"May the men of the Yingwu family be brave and prosperous!"

Facing all kinds of congratulations, Sakura Takeyama's face glowed with a smile. Although he was only 47 years old, he looked like he was celebrating his 80th birthday.

During this period, Xia Feng didn't make a sound, he just sat silently in the corner. Because he was wearing a mask, he didn't even take a sip of wine.

Ying Wuyun was sitting not far from Xia Feng. During this period, he kept winking at Xia Feng, trying to get Xia Feng to stand up and say a few words, even if it was just a simple congratulation.

But Xia Feng completely turned a blind eye to this and just sat quietly, as if waiting for something.

The Sakurabu family is a family of military commanders. Even though they have now become the hegemons who rule the East Continent, most of the military commanders in the army are still from this family.

In this regard, simple singing and dancing obviously cannot satisfy the interests of the owner and guests.

After three rounds of drinking, everyone was a little tipsy, and Sakura Takeyama gave a big wave of his hand.

"Takeno protects the foundation of my Sakura family. Haha, we old guys may not be able to fight anymore. Young men, who would like to show off their skills and help all the guests?"

Sakura Takeyama said it in an understatement, but everyone knew that this was not just for fun.

In addition to my family, there are many "weird" guests at the banquet. This time is the time to show the strength of the Sakurawu family.

To put it simply, this is the same nature as the sword competition held by Victoria when she faced the threat of Ursus when Lieqi died.

It is said to be for fun, but in reality it is a show of force, and the Sakurabashi family obviously does not need to show it. At this time, of course it is to show some "things" that others do not know.

For example, the new "outsider" who joins the Sakurawu family.

As soon as Yingwu Shanxiong finished speaking, Xia Feng, who had been silent all night, rose up in response.

"My lord, I would like to demonstrate the swordsmanship of the Yan Kingdom to all our guests. My martial arts skills are poor, so I hope that the lord will not find it objectionable."

Seeing that Xia Feng actually wanted to "stand in the spotlight", Sakura Takeyama was naturally happy.

"Okay, Your Excellency Zhang San is a new strong general who has joined our Yingwu family. It is said that he has superb swordsmanship from the Yan Kingdom. It is just right for us to experience it today."

Xia Feng bowed slightly.

"Then I'll make a fool of myself."

The so-called display is of course not a person's gestures, and swordsmanship is not a performance. Most of the people sitting here are military commanders. The connotation can only be seen in actual combat.

Standing in the center of the courtyard, the servant immediately brought Xia Feng a wooden sword.

Swords have no eyes. On such a happy day, it would be bad if you use real swords to compete and accidentally see blood.

In the strong confrontation, even with wooden swords, the process of sparring is exciting enough.

Seeing that Xia Feng was ready, Yingwu Shanxiong nodded with satisfaction.

"Your Excellency Zhang San, I don't know who you want to choose to compete with you. Our Yingwu family's strength speaks for itself. Don't worry, you can just choose as you like without fear of offending anyone."

At this time, Ying Wuyun, who was sitting in his seat, stood up and raised his hand towards Xia Feng.

Yes, Ying Wuyun really wanted to spar with Xia Feng, because he had already heard the hint in the family leader's words.

Obviously, Sakurawu Shanxiong wanted him to pretend to accidentally take off Xia Feng's mask through this fun competition, so that all the guests could see Xia Feng's true face.

If Xia Feng is related to the Nishinomiya family, so many big shots who have seen the world will definitely recognize him.

If his appearance does not arouse anyone's attention, it proves that this person is available.

However, Xia Feng's choice did not follow the script.

He ignored Ying Wuyun who raised his hand to look, and turned his gaze to the face of a middle-aged man sitting next to the head of the family.

"I choose him."

Hearing this voice, Frey, who was drinking, was stunned, and the wine glass in his hand stopped in mid-air.

I stopped doing it yesterday due to force majeure, so I will add another chapter today.
