The envoy and his entourage sat down opposite. Master Lan and Zhao An were only ten steps apart.
Zhao An smiled toothlessly, and the latter nodded in a friendly manner, then looked around the room and asked suspiciously: "May I ask, where is Mr. Zhou?"
He also wanted to meet Zhou Huang.
Cui Wengong said calmly: "Mr. Zhou is not here. He seems to be busy with other things."
"Aren't you here?"
Wang Siyuan's originally excited face suddenly faded.
Li Hongni consoled him: "I think he is just a man who is just seeking fame, otherwise how dare he not come?"
"Don't talk nonsense. Mr. Zhou is a genius. Since he is not here, maybe there is something to deal with."
Although Wang Siyuan felt sorry for not seeing Zhou Huang, she did not allow her sisters to insult her idol.
"To carry forward the unique knowledge of the past saints and create peace for all generations——"
Master Lan shook his head and sighed: "It's a pity that such a great talent has no chance to meet him."
"What's the pity? If Mr. Zhou comes, how will Master Lan discuss learning?"
Zhao An made a faint taunt, which immediately made a group of officials from the Ministry of Rites stifle their laughter, and the people in the envoy opposite raised their eyebrows and became furious.
"Master Zhao, please pass! Although Zhou Huang is talented, our Master Lan is the leader of Nanliang. How can we compare with that kid!"
"Yes, if you have the ability, why not come!"
"Ahem, Mr. Zhao, you are a guest, so please be polite." Xiao Tian suddenly helped.
Zhao An squinted and said, "What's the matter with you? How dare a young fifth-grade Qinglu man dare to interrupt?"
"you……"
Xiao Tian stared, his handsome face changed drastically, and finally he snorted and looked away.
This kind of targeting made everyone secretly complain. I wonder what the grudge between the two is. Aren't they both royalists?
King Ning watched from the wall with great interest.
Zhou Ruoxue muttered: "That bastard deserves to die. The Chen family has just been destroyed. He is so domineering and a powerful minister."
"At this moment, I feel that Zhao An is a man of temperament, and I admire his character quite a lot."
appreciate?
Zhou Ruoxue couldn't help but rolled her eyes.
Everyone had tidied up his princess so much that she could hardly get out of bed, but he was still admiring her!
"His Royal Highness the King of Chu has arrived——"
Another loud voice came, and the whole audience fell silent.
A middle-aged man walked out of the hall. He was tall and tall as a pine tree, with a resolute face and eyebrows. He was dressed in a nine-python robe and looked majestic. Although he had a broken arm, he still had the fierceness to fight on the battlefield. But as his footsteps swept through the entire audience, even Marquis Tongwu and Li Daoqi changed their expressions.
This was the general who truly emerged from the sea of blood and corpses. His magnanimity was far beyond the level of Zhang Qi's pampered martial arts.
Zhao An just looked at him, and there was a surge of resentment deep in his heart.
The executioner who destroyed the champion Hou Manmen, King Chu, finally appeared!
Xu Ruqing noticed something was wrong with Zhao An and hurriedly tugged on his sleeves. Only then did Zhao An wake up from his dream. He suppressed the urge to draw his sword and kill people, and then rated the King of Chu in his heart.
Judging from King Chu's appearance and demeanor, he should be at the elite BOSS level, very troublesome.
"His Royal Highness King Chu!"
Everyone said hello together.
Xu Ruqing also stood up, lowering his head and not daring to look around. Cui Wengong, Zhou Miao, Master Lan and Prince Ning also spoke.
King Chu paid no attention to anyone, and locked Zhao An with a pair of cold eyes.
Zhao An was still sitting, playing with the wine glass and looking at him, tit for tat without giving in.
Now that he has grown up and his appearance has changed, I wonder if King Chu can deny that he was his former enemy!
King Chu passed by the table, stopped, and asked coldly: "Are you Zhao An?"
Zhao An clasped his fists and said, "It's my minister."
King Chu said: "You are not a minister, but a eunuch. It is a death penalty for a eunuch to disrespect the prince."
"Haha, is King Chu trying to deal with his subordinates?"
"It's not my king's turn to deal with it. You are His Majesty's close minister, so it is natural for His Majesty to make the decision."
"That may disappoint His Royal Highness King Chu."
Zhao An raised his chin slightly, showing no respect at all.
This scene made the nearby ministers and holy disciples tremble with fear, fearing that a conflict would break out in front of the mission.
Finally, the King of Chu withdrew his gaze and said: "If a eunuch behaves like a eunuch, I will impeach you, but I don't know whether His Majesty will agree to it."
After saying that, he returned to his seat.
Damn it, this piece of shit is so cool!
Isn't it just that he has mastered the Northern Border Army and the family? If he doesn't kill him, he will be sorry for his dead parents!
Zhao An once again suppressed his anger and sat down.
Xu Ruqing comforted him: "You are too impulsive to confront the King of Chu."
"This is the capital, and even if it's a dragon, he has to be cared for by me."
The murderous thoughts in his heart made Zhao An have many thoughts at this moment. Why not inform Yunzhu to send Yunding disciples to kill this executioner after tonight!
At the Nanliang mission, Li Daoqi and Master Lan looked at each other and saw that Zhao An and King Chu were not dealing with them, which was good news for them.
The King of Chu is the only one who can openly compete with Zhao An, because his cronies are all in the north. If something happens to him, his heirs will have an excuse to send their troops south and attack the capital in the name of Qingjun.
Li Daoqi secretly thought: "How about we kill the King of Chu, so that Daxia can be in civil strife, and in this way, we can carve up the land of Nanzhou."
Master Lan shook his head. He was not in a hurry to talk about this matter now. He would wait and see.
"Your Majesty, the Queen has arrived——"
Huang Zhong's voice suddenly sounded, and everyone came out.
The empress came with a dragon and a tiger on her back, followed by Chen Yuru who was dressed in a phoenix robe and looked dignified.
"Long live my emperor! My empress Jin An!"
"My dear friends, no courtesy."
Tonight, the empress is full of heroic spirit, and her movements are full of supreme spirit, which completely overwhelms the killing spirit that King Chu achieved in the sea of knives and fire.
After she and Chen Yuru sat down, the officials returned to the table.
The empress said: "Master Lan, are you satisfied with your stay in the capital these days?"
Master Lan replied cheerfully: "Your Majesty is a benevolent king. Under his rule, everything is peaceful and peaceful. He is far more prosperous than the rumors say."
Scholars are good at talking. Even if they know that he is flattering, the empress and the officials of the Ministry of Etiquette still feel comfortable.
"I heard that Master Lan came to Beijing this time to ask for advice on civil affairs?"
The empress' words were so cunning that everyone in the delegation frowned.
Master Lan said sarcastically: "Nan Liang has been peaceful and happy under the protection of the Celestial Empire in recent years, and has made progress in terms of culture and governance. This time is just for discussion, and I hope your majesty will agree."
Master Lan corrected the empress's wording. He came here to compete, not to ask for advice.
The empress smiled evilly, her phoenix eyes scanned the whole place, and then said to Zhao An: "Master Zhao, why isn't Mr. Zhou here?"
Why?
Why doesn't she have no idea?
Zhao An had no choice but to make a few random remarks.
