Chapter 166: The Battle of Lips and Tongue

Nangong Qi was originally very dissatisfied with Lingxi, and seeing her make the reception banquet so chaotic, he was filled with anger. However, it was only when he got closer that he could see Lingxi's true appearance.

I saw her skin as white as snow, lips as red as a dot, eyes as cold as a pond, with a warm surface but a bottomless depth inside. At this moment, he saw

Lingxi smiled on her lips, exhaling like orchids, but for some reason, when her innocent gaze, free from any impurities, looked at him, it made him feel uneasy.

Seeing her looking at the scar on her chest with a soft and weak gaze, she couldn't help but grab back her clothes and cover her chest. Her eyes didn't dare to meet her directly, but she forcefully pulled away her small hand that was holding onto her clothes. He said in his mouth, "Thank you for your kindness, General. I won't bother you anymore. I can wear it myself." With that in front of Lingxi, he put on his clothes and buttoned them up. After twisting them, he was afraid of missing anything, so he checked again and found that there was indeed nothing wrong. Only then did he return to his normal expression as before.

Lingxi's hand was opened by him, and in front of everyone, he bumped into her again. Ordinary people, afraid to be furious, stared closely at Lingxi's facial expressions, as if waiting for her to explode. Those who usually have some opinions about Nangong Qi were even more eager for Lingxi to find an excuse to beat him up.

Some people stretched their necks, while others wore a smile but a gloating expression. The only one who truly cared about him was Gong Sunyu, who was sitting with him and loved him. He was a rear general of the same level as Nangong Qi, and the rear general Gong Sunyu was a charming young man with a refined and elegant appearance. However, his personality was much gentler than Nangong Qi's, and he was also very tactful in his actions.

At this moment, he couldn't see the weight of Feng Lingxi in the hearts of Feng Qingyun and his son. Nangong Qi could have kicked him on the iron plate today. Unable to resist, he slammed his foot under the table, indicating that he must not act recklessly. We cannot underestimate the spirit of the rhinoceros. However, Nangong Qi showed no mercy and angrily returned to the table, picking up the wine glass in front of him and drinking it all in one gulp.

The atmosphere was somewhat awkward, but everyone rolled out of the crowd. How can you not see the subtlety of the atmosphere at this time? If Lingxi is so suppressed, her life will be difficult later. Even if she is supported by Feng Qingyun and his son, she will not be easy in the face of these old fogies and goblins. If Lingxi were to suppress the arrogant Nangong Qi in turn, things would be much more exciting.

Everyone waited for a long time, waiting to watch the show, waiting for Lingxi to throw wine glasses, shoot a few cases, and get angry. What could have been waited for half a day was disappointment.

There was no angry expression on Lingxi's handsome face, not even a frown. She slowly walked back again. When in action, she is like a weak willow supporting the wind, and the clothing techniques on her skirt and robe are soaring. At this moment, the gentle charm and heroic spirit of a woman are revealed. Under the flickering lights, although she is a woman, she has a unique charm.

Just the calmness of the telepathic connection and the composure when faced with challenges are admirable. Lingxi didn't understand everyone's mentality in her heart, so she returned to her seat and glanced at them. Ling Yun, who was still blushing and lost in thought, opened his red lips and asked softly, "Ling Yun, I heard that you are full of knowledge and have read the Four Books and Five Classics. I believe you are also familiar with the laws of my court. May I ask if there is anything inappropriate about what happened today

Ling Yun understood Lingxi's meaning when he saw her asking him in front of everyone. He inexplicably came to the army and got quite close to Lingxi. Having already been criticized by many people, Lingxi publicly asked him about such an important and sensitive topic, and it goes without saying that he was giving him an opportunity to show off.

He couldn't help but show a hint of embarrassment in his eyes, and after considering for a moment, he said, "Thank you, General, for trusting me. It's just that my words are insignificant, and I'm afraid no one will be convinced if I say them

Feng Qingyun trusts her daughter very much and intends to give her more exercise. She said, "Lingyun, it doesn't matter if you say it right or wrong today. I can ignore the gains and losses in your words. I heard that you once led a large army out of the sandstorm and helped everyone out of their predicament. Speaking of which, you are still a benefactor to us all

Seeing Feng Qingyun's polite words, Ling Yun couldn't help but feel extremely excited. He quickly took a step forward and clasped his fists, saying, "General, it's serious. When my father was alive, he admired General Feng's high integrity very much. You are the compass of our Feng dynasty and the object of our admiration. Today, you can serve your Feng family and the general without hesitation. To be frank, General Feng is not at fault today, but General Gong Qi is a bit reckless

Nangong Qi saw Lingyun, a 16-year-old young man with a hair like head, who was born with clear eyebrows, beautiful eyes, and peculiar bones, without any peculiarities. Lingxi seemed to attach great importance to him. He thought to himself that he had gained Lingxi's favor based on his own appearance, and the anger that had been suppressed in his heart couldn't help but burst out again. Pi Xiaorou looked at Ling Yun with a smirk and said, "Hmph, if you call me reckless, you can give me a set of rules and regulations. I know you literati like to play with fancy things the most. You sing poetry and paint, your mouth is like flowers, and you are very good at dealing with young girls. But in the eyes of Nangong Qi, it's not worth a penny. Can poetry and painting protect our country? Can we make the enemy's iron cavalry not invade our Central Plains and not disturb the nearby residents? I just don't buy your account. If you can't say it today, Hmph, don't blame me for not having eyes under the sword

After speaking, he deliberately revealed the sword around his waist. It is said that the sword around his waist is also a divine object. Weighing 20 kilograms, it is made of pure black iron, which can kill without shedding blood. The blade is smooth, as if measured with a ruler. And he usually doesn't use more than three moves against the enemy, so most people will be intimidated by his momentum when they see the sword in his hand.

So when these people saw his sword exposed at his waist, their face changed slightly. They thought that Lingyun, a weak scholar, would be scared to beg for mercy on the spot. But when they saw him holding his head high, I stood still.

But seeing a slight smile on his face, he calmly adjusted himself and said, "I am Lingyun, a weak scholar with no strength to tie a chicken. In front of General Nan, I am like a weak ant. Thank you, General Feng, for looking up to me and letting me discern this truth. Therefore, I am not a talented person. If what I say makes sense, everyone can listen. If it doesn't make sense, everyone only thinks of me and I have never appeared here

Nangong Qi raised her head proudly, her thick black eyebrows bulging up a small hill, and she said in a deep voice, "Just say it, why bother with such a big bend. Since you want to pick a bone out of the egg, Nangong Qi is not a stingy person, but will accompany you to the end. If it is my fault today, I will personally apologize to General Feng. If someone else is wrong, even if she has someone to support her, she must remove everything and restore the general camp to its original state

Lingxi's small hand slammed heavily on the table, and seeing that Chu Guagua was drunk with blurred eyes and seemed to have some lack of alcohol, she tilted herself in the arms of a woman. Her eyebrows furrowed slightly and she quickly said, "Okay! Lingyun, please speak up, we are all listening

Ling Yun saw Lingxi throw this offending hot potato at him. In this situation, if he didn't answer, he probably wouldn't be able to justify it. After giving a slight bow to everyone, he said, "You all know that our Feng Dynasty is a group of etiquette, and the Chu Emperor pays great attention to everyone's etiquette. I heard that once, the Chu Emperor heard a good news at the border and left the hall without grooming himself. Later, he didn't remember about it until he finished dealing with things, and apologized to everyone in court. From then on, he paid more attention to his words and deeds

Few people know about this matter. When Ling Yun mentioned it again in front of everyone, even Chu Guagua, who was drunk and confused, couldn't help but look deeply at him through his hazy eyes, emitting a terrifying light in his eyes.

Therefore, everyone nodded in agreement with Ling Yun's words. He continued, "The Chu Emperor is still able to restrain himself and others, and is strict in observing etiquette. This shows that we should pay more attention to propriety, righteousness, integrity, and shame in public places. Therefore, I will only discuss the matter today. I will not make personal attacks on anyone. This is just my personal opinion, for reference only

His words were even more reasonable, with a hint of a smile in his eyes. She knew that this kid had a lot of colorful things in his belly.

Encouraged by Lingxi's gaze, Ling Yun said again, "In terms of identity, General Feng is the main position, and General Nangong Qi is the guest position. Without permission, he publicly took off his shirt and exposed his skin, which is indecent and indecent." As soon as he spoke, Nangong Qi's face immediately turned purple. He didn't expect this kid to be so sinister towards him, but he was like a mute who couldn't express the pain of eating Huanglian.

Secondly, as a subordinate, he spoke disrespectfully and confronted his superiors in person, which was disrespectful. Afterwards, he not only did not know how to back down, but also became aggressive. General Feng was kind-hearted and repeatedly humble, while some people were aggressive and advancing step by step. Thirdly, today is the reception banquet, and he was angry in public before the banquet ended, which is a behavior that only ordinary people would exhibit. With the noble status and position of General Gong Qi, making the above actions is indeed very inappropriate. May I ask General Gong Qi, what did General Feng do wrong today that made you dissatisfied

After listening to Ling Yun's words, Nangong Qi's face turned red and black, with a hint of red in the black, adding a touch of majesty to his handsome face. But I saw him trembling with anger, his fists clenched tightly, but his bones clenched and creaked. The people next to him couldn't help but shrink their bodies inside, afraid that his roar would overturn this place.

He had a dark and composed face, and said in a hard voice, "You are General Feng's companion, so of course you will speak up for her. I am straightforward and will speak up if I don't like it. General Feng used to prioritize diligence and frugality, and the welcoming banquet was also simple and plain. Everyone was used to drinking big drinks and eating big bowls of meat. It was a lively scene, laughing and joking, and it was over. But look at all the dishes on today's banquet
