Chapter 414: Famous birthday banquet scene...
The General's Mansion became busy.
As Yun Wanyue's sixth birthday approached, the entire General's Mansion began intensive and orderly preparations.
The servants in the mansion were moving around in every corner, their faces filled with joyful smiles.
Outside the palace, big red lanterns were hung high, swaying in the wind, as if announcing to the world that this special day was about to arrive.
The brightly colored flowers compete with each other in beauty and emit bursts of fragrance, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.
In the kitchen, the fire was burning brightly, and the chefs were waving big spoons, skillfully cooking a variety of delicious dishes.
One dish after another with delicious appearance, aroma and taste was served on the table, making people salivate.
In the garden, gardeners carefully trimmed the flowers, plants and trees, arranging them into beautiful landscapes.
Every detail shows their ingenuity, just to bring the best visual enjoyment to the guests.
Amidst this bustling scene, Ah Cai's two maids appeared remarkably calm. They each performed their duties and handled various matters with composure.
Aunt Rong stood in the middle of the courtyard, holding the guest list and seating arrangement in her hands, frowning slightly as she carefully checked every piece of information.
She was well aware of the importance of this banquet and that any mistake could affect the entire situation.
Therefore, she must be absolutely sure.
Gu Mama was in charge of security. Her eyes were as sharp as an eagle, and she watched every move around her vigilantly.
Once she spotted a suspicious person, she would step forward and question them without hesitation to ensure that no one could disrupt the party.
Thanks to the efforts of these two maids, the entire General's Mansion operated in an orderly manner.
Although busy, everyone's heart is filled with anticipation and joy.
After all, this is the sixth birthday of the little princess of the general's mansion, and no one dares to take it lightly.
...
Among all the preparations, the most eye-catching one is the birthday gift Yun Wanyue is about to receive.
The mysterious gift personally selected by my adoptive father, King Rui, and several gifts called "Cat-Seeking Bags" were carefully placed in the inner room and guarded by a special person.
The origins and uses of these gifts are full of mystery, making everyone who knows about them curious and expectant.
It is said that these gifts are not only extremely precious, but also contain special powers.
Such legends added a touch of legendary color to Yun Wanyue's birthday banquet, and also made people look forward to the outcome of the banquet.
...
Ah Cai played with the space capsule in her hand with great interest, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart: "This thing is really interesting! It can actually be used to store things with vital signs."
She opened the space capsule out of curiosity and found it filled with all kinds of items, including delicious cat food, fresh and tempting fruits and vegetables, precious and rare medicinal herbs, etc.
Ah Cai felt it was a bit novel, so she casually threw out an identification spell.
Soon, the identification results appeared before our eyes:
[Space capsules are capsules left behind by the dead cats on the planet Ta Miao. They can hold things with signs of life...]
Seeing this result, Ah Cai couldn't help but scratch his head, muttering to himself: "My divine pets seem to have similar sacs. Could it be that these Ta Miao people are actually transformed from beasts?"
Thinking of this, Acai nodded thoughtfully, then carefully put away the space capsule.
Then, her eyes were attracted by the "Chongmi Cat Bag" next to it.
Ah Cai looked at the cat bag carefully, and suddenly realized: "Oh, so that's it, isn't this an automatic cat house!"
She fiddled with the cat bag excitedly, feeling its wonders.
Afterwards, Ah Cai checked the transaction records of King Rui and his companions and couldn't help but exclaimed, "Oh my god, how much stuff did they buy? It's unbelievable!"
...
As time passed, more and more guests began to arrive.
They were dressed in gorgeous clothes, holding carefully prepared gifts, with happy smiles on their faces.
The nobles exchanged greetings and enthusiastically discussed the wonderful performances and grand banquet that were about to begin.
The whole scene was bustling with activity and filled with an atmosphere of joy and anticipation.
The children were playing and laughing nearby, looking forward to the upcoming birthday celebration.
...
Acai sat obediently beside Prince Rui and her grandfather with a stiff smile on her face.
She muttered to herself, "This party is so boring!"
However, in order not to worry her family, she still forced herself to maintain a polite smile.
After the banquet officially began, maids and servants served the dishes. Various delicacies were brought up one after another.
A group of dancers in colorful costumes stepped lightly onto the stage.
Holding their long sleeves, they danced gracefully to the melodious music, their graceful and moving movements like butterflies, winning rounds of applause from the guests.
Then the singers began their performance.
Their voices were clear and melodious, and they sang beautiful songs one after another, filling the entire banquet with a joyful atmosphere.
However, at this moment, a sudden change broke the tranquility.
One of the dancers' movements suddenly became extremely fast and fierce. The long sleeves in her hands instantly turned into deadly weapons, stabbing straight at Ah Cai who was sitting obediently.
This sudden change made the guests present scream in surprise and the banquet hall suddenly fell into chaos.
Ah Cai widened her eyes in excitement.
The famous scene is coming,
Assassination?
And assassinated her?
Ah Cai muttered to herself, "Come on, let me see what's going on."
At the moment of the assassination, Madam Rong and Madam Gu immediately displayed their extraordinary martial arts skills.
Rong Mama's figure flashed and she appeared beside Yun Wanyue like a ghost. Her movements were as fast as lightning. She protected the little princess with one hand and was ready to fight any possible attacker with the other hand.
Nanny Gu followed closely behind, her sharp eyes scanning everyone around her, looking for possible threats.
The two's tacit cooperation and superb martial arts skills shocked everyone present.
At this critical moment, the secret guard Xiaojia and a dozen other secret guards reacted quickly. They rushed towards the assassin from all directions, drew out the daggers hidden in their sleeves, and started a fierce fight with him.
Xiaojia acted swiftly and decisively. He understood the assassin's intention in an instant and quickly subdued her.
The other secret guards were not to be outdone. They cooperated well and quickly subdued the dancers and singers right under their noses.
Although the scene was chaotic for a while, Ah Cai was safe and sound thanks to the heroic performance of the secret guards.
Although the assassination was stopped in time, it cast a shadow on the originally festive birthday party and made people realize that there might be a bigger conspiracy behind the party.
It turns out that these seemingly ordinary dancers and singers are actually well-trained assassins. They sneaked into the banquet and waited for the opportunity to launch a fatal attack on Yun Wanyue.
However, Madam Rong, Madam Gu and the secret guards reacted quickly and subdued them in an instant.
Although these assassins were very powerful, they were unable to escape under the combined siege of everyone.
After a fierce battle, all the assassins were subdued or killed.
The hall was filled with a tense and heavy atmosphere. The guests were stunned and could not believe what was happening before their eyes.
King Rui looked at his adopted daughter angrily as she almost met with an accident at her first birthday party, and his face suddenly became extremely gloomy.
He immediately ordered his men to launch a comprehensive investigation and make sure to find out the identity of the mastermind behind the incident.
His anger was like a raging fire, and he vowed to seek justice for Yun Wanyue.
The investigation was extremely fast and the results came out soon.
All the evidence points to a shocking fact: the mastermind behind the assassination was actually the "Seven Kings"!
This news shocked everyone present. No one expected that the "Seventh King" would be so bold as to take action on King Rui's territory.
When King Rui learned the truth, he was furious. He knew that this assassination was not only a provocation to him personally, but also a threat to the stability of the entire dynasty.
After all, it’s still unclear who these “Seven Kings” are!
...
A dozen or so children from the Li family were banging on the table and kicking the stools. They felt that the singing and dancing were boring.
They all ran to get gifts for Acai, and ended up missing an exciting fight.
General Li scolded them harshly, "How dare you fight with assassins? Do you know what kind of martial arts these assassins use?"
Li Yifei became interested when he heard it, "What kind of Kung Fu is this?"
General Li took a sip of wine and said slowly, "This is the kung fu of the southern barbarians. The skills are not very good, but the knife is coated with poison. If you touch it, you will die!"
Li Yisong frowned upon hearing this, "Nanman? Why did they want to kill Yue'er? That's too much!"
Prince Rui already knew what was going on. He had originally planned to wait until Yue'er's birthday to investigate, but he didn't expect these people to be so blind. So, let them die!
