The arrival of the leaders of the four sects attracted some people who wanted to curry favor with them.
In this way, Qin Fan's table became more lively and instantly became the focus of the entire hall.
Li Meili grabbed the wine glass angrily and drank one cup after another. Her originally beautiful face turned green.
"I should have been the one who stole the show, damn Qin Fan!" She cursed in her heart.
The father and son of the Qian family next to him also had gloomy faces. This honor that should have been his was now completely taken away by Qin Fan.
"Hey, Brother Qian, you are indeed here!"
Following a voice, a man in his fifties wearing the official uniform of the Daqian Dynasty appeared behind Qian Zhong.
This official uniform is not ordinary. It has a flying bird embroidered on it.
In the system of the Daqian Dynasty, this was the symbol of the official uniform of a first-class official.
A first-grade official is almost equivalent to the status of a champion. In the system of the Daqian Dynasty, he is a figure at the top of the pyramid, and his status is no less than that of the leaders of the four major sects.
When he saw the visitor, Qian Zhong, who had a sad expression on his face, was suddenly filled with surprise: "Master Xu, are you back?"
Master Xu smiled and said: "I just came back. I heard that you were here, so I came here to see you. Is this the Master Li of the North Pole Gate?"
Li BeiJi quickly stood up: "It's me!"
Although Li BeiJi didn't recognize this person, he knew Feiniao Fu and knew that the smiling man in front of him was a powerful official of the Daqian Dynasty.
Such a being is the one that he, the North Pole Gate, tries his best to curry favor with!
Qian Zhong hurriedly introduced with a smile: "Master Li, this is my benefactor, Mr. Xu Tingxu, the Secretary of the Ministry of Household Affairs, a first-rank official!"
Qian Zhong was promoted by Mr. Xu, and Qian Zhong did not disappoint Xu Ting and helped him accomplish many things.
Li BeiJi and others were suddenly surprised when they heard that the other party was a high-ranking official and a wealthy household official.
"I didn't expect that the Qian family would have such a backer! In this way, the Qian family will be treated with a higher standard in the future."
Li BeiJi secretly thought that it was not that he was snobbish, but that this was a method that the leader of a force must have.
Li Shan and Li Meili were very happy.
Li Meili took Qian Zhili's arm, rubbed it hard on his body, and said, "Brother Qian, do you know Mr. Xu? That's amazing!"
Qian Zhili showed off proudly: "To tell you the truth, my father was promoted by Mr. Xu, and Mr. Xu is the backer of our Qian family."
Eighty percent of these words are bragging. The Qian family is at best a pawn of Xu Ting. If something happens, Xu Ting will never protect him.
However, under the current circumstances, the relationship between the Qian family and Xu Ting is obviously unusual.
"Master Xu, if you are not busy, how about sitting down and having a drink?" Qian Zhong asked tentatively. He wanted to use Xu Ting's prestige to give himself a long face and suppress the limelight of Qin Fan opposite him.
"Okay!" Xu Tingzheng had this intention. After all, even if he treats his subordinates, he must always maintain a relationship to prevent his subordinates from feeling left out.
A junior official immediately gave up his seat: "Sir Xu, sit here!"
"Okay!" Xu Ting was not polite and sat down directly.
The lower-level officials at that table immediately picked up their wine glasses and began to toast Xu Ting.
If Qian Zhong hadn't been here, it would have been impossible for them to talk to Xu Ting.
"I didn't expect that I would be lucky enough to sit at the same table with Mr. Xu today. This is all because of Mr. Qian!"
"Master Qian, I'd like to toast you!"
"That's right, a toast to Mr. Qian!"
Qian Zhong regained his sense of ownership and drank with several junior officials with a smile.
Xu Ting's appearance quickly spread.
Some officials from the Daqian Dynasty immediately swooped over like cats that smelled the fishy smell.
"Sir Xu, my subordinate Wang Hua has come to pay me a visit!"
"Hello, Mr. Qian!"
A fat, middle-aged man wearing a fourth-grade official uniform came over and greeted with a smile.
Qian Zhong's face froze slightly, but he quickly returned to his smile and greeted, "Hello, Mr. Wang!"
This Wang Hua is actually Qian Zhong's old enemy.
However, at this time, he wanted to overpower Qin Fan, and Wang Hua could be considered a big help.
If it were normal times, Qian Zhong would have started spraying already.
Wang Hua came to please Xu Ting. He was already prepared to deal with Qian Zhong's complaints, but he didn't expect Qian Zhong to change his gender this time.
Of course he was also happy. He winked at a junior officer next to Xu Ting, and the junior officer immediately gave up his position.
Wang Hua sat down and began to toast Xu Ting, and the atmosphere was warm.
Soon, other officials came over one after another, second-rank, third-rank, and a lot of lower-level officials, and they immediately surrounded Li Meili's table.
In contrast, Qin Fan's table, which was lively just now, is now much deserted.
After all, most of the people at King Daqian's birthday banquet were court officials, which immediately took the spotlight off Qin Fan's table.
Seeing this, Li Shan and his daughter laughed happily.
Li Meili walked directly to Qin Fan's table, sneered, looked at Qin Fan with a proud expression and said: "Although I don't know what means you used to find the leaders of the four major sects, but with my husband's family Far worse than you."
After mocking Qin Fan, he did not forget to hit Li Wanqing: "Cousin, among the officials who came to visit my husband's family, some of them have unmarried sons. Do you want my sister to help you find one?"
"This woman, no matter how good she is, no matter how knowledgeable she is, is not as good as marrying a good husband. Think about it, there is no shop like this after passing this village."
Seeing the proud look on her face, Li Wanqing was so angry that she almost broke her silver teeth.
Li Yuan glanced at Li Wanqing and could only sigh helplessly.
Although Li Meili's words were intended to hurt Li Wanqing, was what she said not the truth? It's just that Li Wanqing has never listened to him. Otherwise, with Li Wanqing's appearance, how would Li Meili be able to show off her power here?
Seeing the desperate Li Meili coming to taunt Qin Fan, He Zudao, who had the hottest temper, couldn't stand it anymore.
However, after looking at Qin Fan who looked like he was fine, He Zudao didn't dare to have an attack.
So he asked, "Mr. Qin, I still have a few friends over there. Do you want them to come over and pay a visit to Mr. Qin?"
He Zudao wanted to overwhelm the opponent and give Qin Fan some air.
Qin Fan shook his head: "I appreciate your kindness, but it's really not necessary."
At this time, a high-pitched and sharp cry resounded throughout the audience: "Your Majesty is here!"
The whole place suddenly fell silent!
Everyone was shocked: "King Daqian is here!"
But someone immediately became confused: "Isn't the birthday banquet started yet? Why did King Daqian come out at this time?"
While he was talking, a eunuch opened the way, followed by a powerful and domineering old man wearing a five-clawed golden dragon court uniform, with a majestic face, walking quickly towards the North Pole Gate.
Qian Zhong was shocked: "Your Majesty is here! And it seems to be coming for us!"
Qian Zhong suddenly looked at Xu Ting and said in surprise: "I didn't expect that Mr. Xu just came back and your Majesty came to greet him in person."
