This is not impossible. The two kings of Qi, Shu and King Lu have already figured it out, but they still have no in-depth understanding of their nephew who has been in Beijing for only two years.
Collecting information about King Dai always feels like looking through the fog, but when King Lu met King Dai in person, the feeling of being invisible was even stronger.
King Lu was depressed. At this moment, he heard a shout not far away: "King Qi is here——"
With this sound, King Lu had entered the main entrance, and the guests were greeting each other. When they heard King Qi's arrival, the atmosphere froze for a moment.
Why did King Qi come?
Who doesn’t know that King Qi and King Dai are in conflict?
It was not surprising that King Lu would come, and it was not unusual for King Shu to come in person. But when King Qi came, things were different.
Yu Qianzhi glanced around and saw that the people in the reed shed were looking at each other, and countless thoughts were quickly passing through them.
"Did King Qi come to play in the gym?"
But now, Dai Guogong is already the acting king. Choosing to kick the court at this time, without necessary reasons, can easily turn into cruel and unruly rumors.
After hearing this, the emperor might feel even more disgusted.
Yu Qianzhi thought like this and got up to leave. He saw Su Ziji stood up to greet him again. When he arrived at the main gate, King Qi had already strode over with several guards. The swords clinked. This posture made Su Ziji nervous. Ji frowned.
"Is King Qi here to make trouble?" Su Ziji thought to himself, took a step forward and bowed: "King Qi."
"On behalf of the king." King Qi also bowed his hand lightly.
"I wonder why the King of Qi came here?" Su Ziji asked with a smile: "Did you also come to Xiao Wang's place for a drink?"
"Why, King Dai doesn't welcome you?" King Qi asked with a smile on his face.
Su Ziji still smiled: "How could it be? King Qi came to congratulate the little king. It's too late for the little king to be happy. Please!"
Saying that, he made a gesture of invitation.
King Qi did not go in immediately, but said to a guard: "Why are you still standing there? Send Gu's gift to you!"
"Yes!" The guard hurriedly bowed in response and handed the box in his hand to the steward of the acting prince's palace.
"It's an honor for Xiao Wang to have a glass of wine with King Qi. This gift..." Su Ziji declined.
King Qi had something to say at this time: "Why should you be so polite on behalf of the king? Mr. Gu is your uncle. The elders give it to you, so you can't refuse it!"
Putting these words aside, he strode in. Su Ziji smiled slightly and followed in.
It’s really King Qi who’s here!
In the reed shed, the guests felt uneasy physically and mentally since they knew that King Qi had arrived. They were afraid that an ordinary banquet would become a side in the eyes of King Qi. If they really thought so, these low-level officials would easily become cannon fodder in the fight between the two kings.
Oh, if I had known that something like this would happen, it would be better not to come this time, or to stagger the time, or to ask the butler to deliver gifts, than to tremble now!
The guests were as silent as a cicada. When King Qi walked in, they didn't even dare to express their anger.
As several nearby guests saluted King Qi, others stood up and kowtowed.
After glancing at the banquet, King Qi ignored the guests who were bowing carefully and turned to ask Su Ziji: "By the way, is Wen Xunpeng here with you?"
Su Ziji was not surprised that King Qi suddenly attacked him. If King Qi came here to give him a gift and drink a glass of wine this time, Su Ziji would have to think too much.
Then I heard King Qi sneer with his hands behind his back, but he said casually: "Don't say you don't know him. This runaway slave is so hateful. He stole the treasures in the Gu's house. If you are here and you make friends with us, we will still be good uncles and nephews. If we don't make friends with you, But don’t blame Gu for being unkind.”
Yu Qianzhi never expected that King Qi would attack him just after he was crowned king. Hearing Wen Xunpeng's name, his heart skipped a beat and he immediately looked at Su Ziji.
"No mercy? Have you and I ever been in harmony?" Su Ziji felt funny after hearing this.
Of course, in the past, we had only met with each other in the air and never fought head-on, but this did not mean that Su Ziji would give in.
Besides, only Wen Xunpeng was handed over?
As long as Wen Xunpeng is handed over, who will dare to take refuge in him in the future? Those who can't even protect their subordinates are completely disqualified from competing for heirs!
Su Ziji smiled and was not annoyed by Prince Qi's aggressive attitude. He bowed slightly and said calmly: "Wen Xunpeng is here with me, but he is not a runaway slave. Even in Prince Qi's palace, he is a guest."
“Sages have said that the master chooses his guest, and the guest chooses his master.”
"Although Wen Xunpeng was yours in the past, he is now a member of the Prince's Palace. You said he stole your treasure? I don't know what kind of treasure it was? When was it lost? Is there any witness? Even if there is, I want to It is not an easy task to take away a guest from my acting prince's palace. Just relying on the words of King Qi and your family will not work. If you really insist, you and I will have to argue in front of the emperor!"
These words were spoken in a calm tone, but they were very strong!
King Lu stood aside, watching this scene with a smile, as if "it has nothing to do with you whether you fight or not", but his heart sank.
The entire reed shed was suddenly silent. Dozens of officials and gentry officials looked at each other in shock, lowering their heads together, complaining in their hearts, not knowing how furious King Qi would be.
Only then did Yu Qianzhi truly appreciate the majesty of King Qi. He pondered quietly, but saw King Qi suddenly stop smiling and stared at Su Ziji. After a long time, he pointed at Su Ziji with his hand: "You won't give it to me." Face? Okay, okay, you have the guts!"
"As expected of my eldest brother's son, he is indeed brave!" After saying that, he laughed and left.
King Qi left, and the atmosphere did not relax immediately.
"Father, King Qi's unkindness seems to be intentional. Could it be that he knew that King Dai would not agree to surrender, so he did this deliberately to have a reason to attack King Dai?" Luo Zhengqi asked in a low voice.
"Don't worry."
Knowing that a son is more like a father, Luo Pei went to jail, with a few wrinkles on his face like knife carvings. He smiled silently and said: "It is a wise move for the king to refuse to make friends. As for whether to become enemies, it depends on their relationship and the relationship between them. Let’s go up this time.”
"Isn't that Lord Lopero?"
Just now, the two kings of Lu and Qi came in one after another, and everyone was stunned. Now that some people saw clearly the person who came forward to speak, they felt dazzled.
"The banquets held by the royal palace in this generation are only attended by humble officials like us, just to enjoy the autumn breeze."
"Officials of the fourth rank and above are very polite and not very close to others. No matter where we are, no matter who is important, we have to come in person. What's wrong with Mr. Luo? Isn't he a member of the King of Shu?"
"Even if you are not afraid of dissatisfying the King of Shu, this is a third-grade official. Are you not afraid of His Majesty's dissatisfaction?"
"Now he is no longer a member of the King of Shu. You don't know yet?" The eighth-rank official was probably a so-called inquirer in Beijing and was well-informed, because the news was not considered confidential. He glanced at it and found that Yu Qianzhi was missing. He breathed a sigh of relief and lowered his voice to explain.
"Not long ago, Mr. Luo was acquitted. He had been in prison for a long time before that. The King of Shu never visited him even once when he was in prison. The King of Shu also pretended that he did not have this person. On the contrary, he was acting as the king, and at that time he was still acting as the Duke. A Duke dared to visit him many times and intercede with him. Tell me, with such kindness, how could Mr. Luo still follow the King of Shu?"
