In the corridor pavilion of the inner palace, the first few people who arrived were enjoying tea. There were various fruits and snacks. Qingya here mostly peeled peanuts from his pocket, and Xianghaihua was responsible for accompanying the guests.
Seeing Nan Zhu who came with Yu Qing, Mu Aotie and Chong'er stood up suddenly, both surprised. They both went over to ask for the reason, but Nan Zhu still looked sick.
The woman is attentive, and when Chong'er saw that he was sick, she couldn't help but become concerned about his body, "Brother Qi, how is your injury?"
When asked about this, Nanzhu glanced at Yu Qing and repeated his old rhetoric, "It has improved slightly, but it may be a bit troublesome to cure it. Yao Tu said that more attempts may not lead to a cure, but Various medicines don’t fall from the sky. It costs a lot of money to collect various medicinal materials from everywhere. It costs a lot of money. If someone is willing to treat them, it is already showing a noble hand. It is impossible to let others pay for it. Alas, never mind. Just take it one day at a time."
After saying this, Chong'er stared at him blankly, with a similar sadness on his face.
Mu Aotie also looked solemn when he heard this.
Chong'er then looked at Yu Qing and Mu Aotie, knowing that these two people also had the same hidden dangers and would probably do the same in the future, and his heart became heavy.
When he sat down, when Nanzhu saw Baili Xin, he just said hello in a normal way, without any unusual closeness.
Regarding this, Yu Qing couldn't help but take a second look and determined that Lao Qi seemed to have changed his character after he came back from the "Realm of Zhuyao". He used to always pester Baili Xin, but now he is serious. Treat her with a normal heart, without the emotion of Feng Qiuhuang.
Bailixin didn't realize that she had no feelings for Nanzhu. After all, Nanzhu looked like this. It was really not easy for a qualified woman like her to accept it. However, she used to pursue her all the time, but now she suddenly let go. Somewhat disappointed.
But I won't mind too much.
A group of people chatted for a while, and suddenly several people arrived, led by Li Chenghu and Xiang Luo Ce. A group of people present stood up to greet them.
Chong'er didn't know Li Chenghu, and her eyes glanced back and forth on their faces. Judging from the gorgeousness of their clothes, her guess was not wrong, but she wasn't sure.
She also moved subconsciously and hid herself behind Yu Qing.
Li Chenghu's aura was full of majesty, and his energy was more powerful than those of those high-level masters. His eyes were fixed directly on Yu Qing, and he walked over with a smile on his face.
At Xiang Haihua's signal, a group of people saluted, "Your Majesty."
Li Chenghu waved his sleeves, indicating that there was no need to be polite and showed no pretense to others. He stood directly in front of Yu Qing and said with a smile, "Tanhua Lang, we meet again."
As he spoke, he glanced slightly at the person shrinking behind him.
Xiang Luoce, who was accompanying him, glanced at the insects a few times without noticing.
Xianghaihua was very attentive to observing Chong'er, and noticed that Chong'er's reaction was abnormal and seemed to be shrinking.
Yu Qing cupped his hands and said politely: "It is a great honor for Yu Qing to be entertained by the prince."
Li Chenghu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn't know why this person still called himself a false name in front of him. The so-called plain people don't say secret words in front of his eyes. This is boring, or a bit ignorant, but he still showed a smile on his lips, " You are a good friend of the princess, that is, a friend of this king. To say 'honored' is an exaggeration. Before coming, the princess repeatedly told me that I must treat you well..." He glanced at everyone and then added. The word "we" is used, "If the reception is not good, the princess will probably blame the king."
Yu Qing was very confused. He didn't know what Tie Miaoqing was thinking. He made it clear about taking money to draw a clear line. Now he was doing this again. He didn't think Li Chenghu would lie. With Li Chenghu's status, strength or power, , there is absolutely no need to do this to him.
He could only greet him as he was told, "Is the princess okay?"
Li Chenghu laughed and said: "Fortunately, I just like to be quiet by nature and don't want to socialize or anything like that." He glanced at everyone in Taohuaju and said, "You are her friends. Come visit Yin Guo's capital more often when you have time. Old friends can always visit." Just catching up on old times."
Chong'er, who was hiding behind Yu Qing, had his lips tightly closed, his hands hidden in his sleeves were tightly clenched, and his breathing was long and heavy.
For her, this place was originally her home. She had seen it when she came here, and the building complex was basically in its original state. But now things and people have changed, and the man who killed her tribe and her mother was... The murderer was right in front of her.
Although Aunt Alang had repeatedly warned her not to take revenge, at this moment, she found that her heart was still full of hatred, and she could only forcefully suppress her emotions.
After his eyes bounced back and forth on the people in Taohuaju, Li Chenghu tilted his head slightly, his eyes fell on her, and pointed to the others with a smile, "Tanhualang, Nanzhu, Mu Aotie, Bailixin, I Did you admit your mistake?" He stared at Chong'er again, "This little brother, I am a bit blind?"
Yu Qing hurriedly stepped aside to let go of Chong'er, "Lin Long, a guy from Taohuaju."
Zhong'er, who was suddenly exposed, was stunned at first, and then looked panicked.
The resentment and hatred just now disappeared in an instant. After all, her temperament was not a person who could support hatred. The mixture of various complex emotions made her at a loss.
Even in this situation, Qingya still played with peanuts in his hands. He could resist crushing them, which was considered polite, and he still wore wooden clogs under his feet.
Li Chenghu raised his hand and patted his forehead, "You know your sin, I know it. I heard the princess mention it. You don't go out much. It's my neglect. I will punish myself with a few drinks later to make amends."
Chong'er hurriedly shook his head and refused, "No... no need."
Li Chenghu did not answer the question and turned to look at Xiang Luo Ce, "Is the banquet ready?"
Xiang Luo Ce nodded, "It's ready." He extended his hand and asked me to follow him.
Li Chenghu immediately greeted everyone warmly, "Everyone, please."
Immediately followed Xiang Luo, leading the way.
All the lanterns in the corridor were lit up, and the future was bright, combining light and night to create an elegance. The clicking sound of the clogs under Qingya's feet ruined the atmosphere, and even Li Chenghu couldn't help but look back at his feet.
This glance made Qingya dig his shoe soles with his toes, and then continued to pretend to be calm and indifferent.
A living room, everyone was a little surprised after entering.
It stands to reason that most of the banquets given to princes like Li Chenghu are divided into separate cases, so the order of priority is clearly defined, but in front of him is a large round table filled with delicacies.
Xiang Luoce, who was leading the way, stretched out his hand to signal Li Chenghu to please take a seat.
However, Li Chenghu pressed down his hand and smiled at everyone: "Here are all friends of the princess, and also friends of the king. Today is just a time for friends to reminisce about old times. There is no discussion of status, and there is no distinction between high and low." He pointed. Referring to Qingya's barefoot clogs, "Just like Qingya, you can sit wherever you like today."
Everyone looked at Qingya's feet, which made Qingya feel uncomfortable, and his toes dug at the soles of his shoes again.
"Sit down, sit down, you guys sit down first." Li Chenghu, who was greeting, saw that Chong'er was following Yu Qing step by step, and immediately went over and patted Yu Qing's shoulder, "Tan Hua Lang, you see everyone is being polite here, you take the lead first sit."
Xiang Lanxuan had been watching with cold eyes and found that the low profile of the prince today was extremely rare, especially for a person of this status. This was the first time she had seen Prince Duan with such a low profile.
Even if there is some intention, there is no need to do this. It will only make people more suspicious.
She thought about it for a while, and found only one answer. It seemed that the prince's love for the princess was indeed extraordinary. It was really sad that he would be so humbled just because of the princess' explanation.
Even she was a little envious of Tie Miaoqing.
After his name was called, Yu Qing felt that there was no need for practitioners to go through so many red tapes, so he immediately took the lead and sat down, taking a random seat, but he would not sit in the upper seat.
Seeing him sit down, Chong'er immediately followed and sat next to him.
Ever since Yu Qing fed her delicious food on the way to take the exam, showed her kindness and care for her as a lowly servant, and led her out of danger in the ancient tomb wasteland, she felt that she would feel safe as long as she could stay with Yu Qing. , you can feel at ease and not be afraid of anything.
In her heart, Yu Qing is the most talented and capable person in the world. Although he has little money, it still does not prevent her from thinking this way.
She thinks that Yu Qing is just a gentleman who loves money and gets it in a wise way. If you want money, you can make a lot by writing some poems. This kind of moral character is very noble.
Seeing Chong'er sit down, Li Chenghu immediately walked up to Chong'er and laughed at everyone: "Since you are so cautious, well, I, too, can sit down." After saying that, he sat directly next to Chong'er. , nodded and smiled at Chong'er.
The enemy of the blood feud was sitting next to him, and Chong'er was immediately at a loss.
Seeing this, Prime Minister Luo Ce suddenly realized, and finally understood why this prince did not take the throne, but wanted to be more noble than him. This was the case.
He didn't say anything, and he sat down when Li Chenghu sat down. Naturally, he sat directly next to Li Chenghu.
So everyone took their seats one after another. Nanzhu was not polite and wanted to sit next to Yu Qing. Unexpectedly, before his legs could reach the position, someone pulled him out. It was so sudden that no one noticed.
The one who took action was Xiang Lanxuan. She stepped forward and sat calmly next to Yu Qing.
Nanzhu, who staggered for a few steps, glanced at her. He had experienced how ruthless this woman was. She would silence her at every turn, and she couldn't afford to offend her emotionally or rationally. Forget it, let's change places.
However, as long as he was struggling like this, everyone was basically seated. When he found the last empty seat and was about to sit down, he froze there again.
There was no other reason. If Li Chenghu didn't sit in the upper seat, no one else dared to sit in the upper seat. They all actively avoided the upper seat when they sat down.
Now that only Zhang, the leader and chief, is left, what should he do?
Dayesi was walking in front of him, and Xiang Lanxuan, a master in the high-xuan realm.
There are heroes who command the Amber Sea, and Xiang Luoce, a master in the high-mysterious realm.
There is Li Chenghu, the powerful Prince Duan of the Yin Kingdom.
Qingya, a local snake in the sea, is far superior to him in terms of status, strength or power.
Xiang Haihua, the master of Zhihai Pavilion, has no place here and can only stand aside and obey orders.
He himself is also asking himself, is it appropriate for him to take the main seat on this occasion?
His eyes glanced at everyone present, and he realized that Lao Fifteen didn't want to listen to him, so he focused on Mu Aotie, "Lao Jiu, come on, let's change places."
The words came out and attracted everyone's attention.
Mu Aotie understood his situation, shook his head slightly, and then pretended not to see him and remained silent.
Well, Nanzhu had no choice but to stare at the most obedient Chonger, but before he could speak, Li Chenghu preemptively said: "Nanzhu, I said we are all friends today, there is no priority, sit down, sit down!"
The last two words subconsciously sounded almost commanding.
Well, Nanzhu walked down the slope and sat down with a sigh of relief, but after looking around, he still felt awkward.
"Come on, let's fill up the wine first." As soon as Li Chenghu greeted him, he saw Chong'er taking the initiative to take the jug and help Yu Qing pour the wine. This scene made him a little silent. After taking a deep breath, he smiled at Yu Qing: "Tanhua Lang, I can see that Brother Lin has a good relationship with you."
Yu Qing glanced at Chong'er and replied with a smile: "We are a family."
Hearing this, Chong'er's face showed a slight smile from the bottom of his heart.
family? Li Chenghu touched the wine glass filled by Xiang Luo Ce, stared at the wine in the glass, his eyes were a little heavy, and he remained silent for a long time.
