"Uncle, you should go take care of the imperial envoy. Xiao Chen will be left to me." Wanyan Pingqiu said with a smile, "He is my sworn brother, and it is really not easy to sit at the same table with my father on this occasion."
"Oh, that's really wronging Mr. Xiao." Wanyan Liang said in her heart that this Xiao Chen is a wonderful man, no wonder everyone likes him.
"Uncle Wanyan is too polite, I'm not that particular." Xiao Chen really didn't care.
As soon as Xiao Chen sat down, a group of people rushed up to him and pulled him forcefully to the table. However, the people at the table held Xiao Chen and refused to let him go. The boss of Xiao Chen also sat down.
What the hell are you doing? What were you doing earlier! Go away quickly, the banquet is about to begin, don’t delay us from having a drink with Boss Xiao Chen!
Wanyan Pingqiu was on the side again trying to persuade them, and then they persuaded everyone to leave. There were still a few who refused to leave despite any words. They brought their own chairs and squeezed in. Naturally, it was not easy to drive them away.
…
"Hey, boss, why didn't you even join the main table?" Wen Shanchang, as an envoy sent by Xianbo and as a prince, openly sat on an equal footing with Hu Yanlei and others. When he saw Xiao Chen, he sat down
, couldn't help but make fun of him.
"You kid didn't even get involved!" Xiao Chen said.
"How am I qualified?" Wen Shanchang said with a smile, "Dare you compare with me, boss? I'm just better than those people." He said and pointed to Shangguan Qiji Ling'er and others in the corner.
"Speaking of it, Divine Doctor Wen is really qualified to be on the main table!" Hu Yanlei said with a smile, "Now you, Lao Wen, are a famous person in our northern Xinjiang. No matter how many tribal princes invite you, they can't even invite you!"
"Thank you for your love, the princes!" Wen Shanchang said with a smile, "But I can't help myself. King Moro refuses to let me leave the country. I can't go even if I want to, right?"
"King Moro regards you as his treasure! He is afraid that we will snatch you away." A prince laughed.
"I heard that the miraculous doctor said that you will have a secret recipe for immortality. I will give you a copy of it for each of us!" When a prince got older, he wanted to live a few more years.
"There is no secret recipe for immortality." Wen Shanchang said, "But there are only a few recipes for strengthening the body and prolonging life. I am just a doctor of Xianbo, so I can't give them to you.
I hope you will understand the little difficulties that princes face in prescribing medicines." He also took up the air...
"Brother, the atmosphere is very wrong." Hu Yanlei whispered to Xiao Chen, "I thought I would see some bloodshed and turbulent waves here. Why is it so peaceful? Do you know what's going on?"
"Don't talk nonsense, who told you there would be a bloody storm?" Xiao Chen said.
"There is no bloody storm, but there is still an undercurrent!" Hu Yanlei said, "I haven't calmed down in the past few days since I came here. Brother Wanyan's brothers have all come to see me. I listened to the meaning behind their words.
They all want to be king! If you don’t believe it, just wait and see, they will definitely look for you later!”
"You kid, don't worry about Mo Jie's affairs, think about yourself!" Xiao Chen said.
"What can happen to me? I don't want to be the king...it's not Brother Xiao. What do you mean by that?" Hu Yanlei suddenly became alarmed.
"You really don't want to be the King of Helan?" Xiao Chen said, "That's fine, that will save me the trouble. Since you don't want to be the King, then don't stay in Helan and come back to Yanyun with me."
Come on, I will ensure that you live the rest of your life in glory and wealth."
"Who said I don't want to be the king anymore?" Hu Yanlei suddenly became anxious, "Didn't I rush here in a hurry...Brother Xiao, can you just say it if you have something to say?"
"You should be the one to tell me this!" Xiao Chen said, "I'm telling you what's going on? You should think about it carefully these days in Mojie, and then go find me after you think about it!"
Hu Yanlei wanted to ask again, but people came over one after another to toast Xiao Chen, so he had no choice but to shut up, but he began to feel anxious in his heart...
"Governor Xiao Chen, I've heard about the name for a long time, and it's like thunder in my ears. When I saw him today...hehe, it's better to meet him than to be famous." A man in his thirties dressed in brocade came over with a drink and looked at Xiao Chen with a half-smile but not a smile.
"Brother Xiao, don't you know him yet?" Hu Yanlei quickly stood up and introduced him, "This is Prince Wanyan Pingyou."
Wanyan Pingyou is Wanyan Pingqiu's second brother. He is smart and capable, and he can also lead troops. He is well-known in the northern Xinjiang area.
After Wanyan Pingzuo's death, he became the eldest prince. According to common sense, he should be the first heir to the throne.
"I've admired you for a long time." Xiao Chen said hurriedly.
"Don't dare, I should have admired Governor Xiao for a long time. I have to thank you for my little brother Pingqiu. If it weren't for you, he wouldn't be the leader of the Northern Territory Alliance, hahaha..." Wanyan Pingyou smiled although
Very loud, but smiling.
"Pingqiu can be the leader of the alliance. That is his ability. It has nothing to do with me, little brother." Xiao Chen said.
"Why is it irrelevant? Aren't you his good brother?" Wanyan Pingyou said, "Haha, you humiliated him at the Great Zhou Lantern Festival, and now you help him become the leader of the alliance. Isn't this a slap in the face?
What's the point of giving me another sweet date?"
"Second brother Wanyan, I don't understand what I'm saying." Xiao Chenxin said, "You drank too much just after the banquet started? In front of so many people, are you talking humanly?"
"Hahaha, just kidding, my little brother Pingqiu will be very happy as soon as he tastes a little bit of sweetness. He is still a child with a temper, and sometimes he can't tell the difference between good and bad, true and false... Governor Xiao Chen will have to do this in the future
Just teach him more." What Wanyan Pingyou said was really too much.
Xiao Chen was left speechless.
"Come on, it's rare to see you today, so I offer you this glass of wine!" Wanyan Pingyou said, raising her glass and touching it slightly with Xiao Chen. She watched Xiao Chen finish the wine, but she only touched it on her mouth.
After a moment, he turned around and left.
"How can this be a toast? It's clearly a show of authority." Wen Shan grew angry.
"Haha, Brother Xiao, I have admired your name for a long time!" Wanyan Pingzuo had just left when another one came.
This is Wanyan Pingxin, Wanyan Pingqiu's third brother. He looks very friendly with a smile on his face.
He was also extremely enthusiastic towards Xiao Chen. He drank three glasses of wine with him in a row and gave him a big bear hug before leaving.
"This Wanyan Pingxin is a smiling tiger." Hu Yanlei whispered, "He is ruthless and extremely insidious. He can eat people without spitting out their bones. Brother Xiao, please be careful with him."
Later, Wanyan Pingyi, Wanyan Pingli, and Wanyan Pingzhi, three Mojiu princes, also came over to toast Xiao Chen. They were all very polite in what they said, and drank the wine quite happily, but they were so indifferent, as if Xiao Chen had nothing to do with them.
It's like having a grudge.
There is indeed a grudge, because Xiao Chen's subordinate Li Tanhua once killed their eldest brother Wanyan Pingzuo. Although he returned with a human head and a golden body, the hatred of his brother's murder is still unresolved.
Of course, their indifference towards Xiao Chen is not because of Wanyan Pingzuo, but because of Wanyan Pingqiu. They all know that Xiao Chen and Wanyan Pingqiu are brothers, brothers who are closer than their own brothers...
