snort! "
Gu Tong snorted coldly and walked away.
The official hissed secretly.
This incident was actually not Gu Tong's fault, but the businessman's deliberate attempt to cause trouble.
Seeing him leaving, the businessman hurriedly chased after him. He couldn't help but smile shyly and said to please: "Oh, Mr. Gu, don't you have eyesight but don't recognize Mount Tai? Your Excellency doesn't remember the faults of villains, haha."
"Okay, okay! There's nothing to see anymore!" Some government guards began to drive away the people.
The crowd of onlookers outside dispersed, and when they saw Gu Tong walking by, everyone started to point their fingers:
"I didn't expect that he was Princess Qin's father."
"Oh, this is Qin Jun's father-in-law. Mr. Wei must not be embarrassed."
"I didn't expect that Jinxiu Villa has such a background."
The crowd was talking a lot, and Xiao Yuan was among them. Watching Gu Tongyuan leave, he couldn't help but frown secretly and whispered:
"Old man Gu, now that his identity has been exposed, he will be in big trouble."
As he spoke, he looked at Liang Yuan again and whispered: "Immediately send an order to the Imperial Guard Camp to send more elite troops to accompany him to protect his safety."
"Yes!" Liang Yuan responded quickly.
But this is in the Ling Kingdom. No matter how strong the Duwei camp is, Xiao Yuan must ask the Ling King for help. But in this case, he will owe everyone a favor, and once the relationship between Qin and Ling deteriorates, Jinxiu Villa will It will be the first target.
Shaking his head secretly, Xiao Yuan had no choice but to leave here.
At the same time, the study room of Ling Wang Palace.
King Ling frowned slightly: "I have already received a reply from King Qin, saying that he will arrive as scheduled. Now that so many days have passed, have any officials along the way seen King Qin's honor guard?"
Cheng Ping shook his head: "Based on this, King Qin is either delayed by something or traveling in casual clothes."
"The king of a country will not easily break an appointment after he replies to the letter. He should be in casual clothes. This is also the problem."
King Ling was slightly worried and said: "If anything happens to Lord Qin in the Ling Land, our country will not be able to escape suspicion. The Qin State will definitely put the blame on us, and then use all the troops in the country to fight against the Ling Kingdom. When the time comes, , it means that two countries will perish, and other countries will reap the benefits."
"So, the king is worried about people with ulterior motives." Cheng Ping received it.
"Yes." King Ling nodded, thought for a while, and could only say: "Send the order to improve the security of Lingzhou, and check it carefully."
"No!" Cheng Ping accepted the order.
It can be seen that King Ling attaches great importance to this meeting between the two monarchs.
Two days later, at the Lingwang Palace, at the palace gate.
When Xiao Yuan and his party arrived, they were naturally intercepted by the Forbidden Army.
In order not to waste time and avoid misunderstanding, he also directly disclosed his identity and took out his credentials.
After seeing the certificate of credence, seeing the king's seal on it, and hearing that the other party claimed to be the King of Qin, the imperial army did not dare to hesitate and hurriedly reported the matter to the superiors.
The Spiritual Palace is very large, and it takes time to walk here from the study.
Just when Xiao Yuan was getting bored waiting, a hearty laugh came over.
"Haha! Brother Qin Wang, I haven't seen you for a long time, but you still look like you!"
Following the words, the Spirit King, dressed in royal robes, came out in person.
"Brother Ling Wang is the same way." Xiao Yuan also bowed his hand and returned the salute.
When he got closer, King Ling said again: "Oh, Brother Qin, if you can accept the invitation, it is a great honor for me. I asked you to wait for so long without notifying me in advance, so I can welcome you early. I feel ashamed." ah."
"Brother Ling Wang is so polite. I just happened to go sightseeing on this trip. The scenery of Ling Kingdom is really pleasant." Xiao Yuan said with a smile.
"Haha, okay, since Brother Qin likes it, then tomorrow, I will take Brother Wang to have a good look at it, and I will show my friendship as a landlord."
The Spiritual King smiled heartily again, then stretched out his hand sideways: "Brother Wang, please."
"please."
After the polite greetings, the two kings walked into the palace side by side.
Dinner that day.
The positions of the two monarchs are directly above, and the two desks are placed diagonally. King Ling's arrangement was undoubtedly done after careful consideration.
On the two sides below were some important ministers of the Ling Kingdom, as well as Xu Hu, Liang Yuan and others.
Xiao Yuan originally thought that there would be birthday celebrations from other countries this time, but he didn't expect that the scene was more like a family banquet.
Seeing his doubts, King Ling smiled and said: "This banquet is not meant to be public. It is enough for me to have a drink with King Qin's brother."
"Brother Ling Wang is so flattered." Xiao Yuan said modestly.
"Huh? Brother Wang is joking." King Ling waved his hand.
At this time, the food and wine were almost served one by one by the palace maids.
Xiao Yuan was the first to hold the cup and said: "Come, let's toast Brother Ling Wang with a cup to express our congratulations. I wish this brother can have this day every year and this day every year."
His words were very easy-going and made the Spirit King smile heartily.
The ministers below hurriedly took the cups and said at the same time: "Let's respect the king together."
"Okay! Let's all drink together!" The Spirit King also looked very happy.
After saying this, he also raised his glass to Xiao Yuan: "Brother Wang, please."
"please!"
After finishing a glass of wine, the Spirit King also extended his hand downwards: "No need to be restrained, everyone, just treat it like a family banquet. Eat and drink well. There will be dancing and music to entertain you later."
When people heard this, they saw that King Ye Ling and King Qin were already picking up the dishes, and they all started to use their chopsticks.
The atmosphere at the scene was quite good, with everyone laughing and toasting from time to time.
But at this moment, a girl next to the Spirit King suddenly said: "Father, what's so good about the dance?"
"Oh?" The Spirit King looked at her with interest.
This young girl is beautiful and charming, with a hint of playfulness in her expression. She is none other than Princess Lingyu.
Her beautiful eyes moved slightly, she looked at Xiao Yuan, and said with a smile: "I thought that King Qin was the kind of fierce and evil type with scars on his face, but I didn't expect that he turned out to be like a young master."
There was a sparkle in her eyes.
"Yu'er!" King Ling frowned and warned in a deep voice.
However, Xiao Yuan didn't care at all. Instead, he laughed and said, "It seems that the king has disappointed the princess."
"Are you disappointed? It's okay." Princess Lingyu was very familiar with her. She tilted her little head and thought for a while, then said, "How should I call you? Should I call you Brother Wang or Uncle Wang?"
"Yu'er! You're so presumptuous!" King Ling couldn't help it anymore and scolded her angrily, and hurriedly smiled awkwardly at Xiao Yuan, "Brother Prince Qin, don't be offended. My little girl is used to being coquettish. It's all because of my lax discipline."
After hearing this, Princess Lingyu felt aggrieved. She pursed her red lips and said, "That's right! He is only in his twenties. If you call him Uncle Wang, wouldn't you call him old?"
"You! This girl!" The Spirit King was extremely angry.
Xiao Yuan smiled cheerfully again: "Yes, yes, the princess is absolutely right. We all call each other what we call ourselves. It's very good to call us Brother Wang!"
