After saying that, Zhu Tianci said towards the outside of the house, "Here comes someone!"
Several maids and servants walked in and saluted Zhu Tianci and Su Yin, "I have met Mr. Zhu and the Duke."
Zhu Tianci said, "The Duke has come a long way and is very dusty. Go and open the room that has been cleaned in advance and send the Duke to rest."
After saying that, without waiting for Su Yin to speak, Zhu Tianci said, "Your Majesty, the Duke, it has been a hard work for you to come here, so please take a rest in the mansion. Although the prince is not here, I have repeatedly told you that you must not be polite, your Majesty, and just treat this place as your home."
At my own home, in the evening, the civil and military officials of King Dingnan will come to visit me, and I would like to ask the Duke to show his appreciation."
It has to be said that Zhu Tianci was so polite to the point of hypocrisy, but this kind of hospitality made Su Yin feel more useful. Under the leadership of several maids and servants, Su Yin and others moved into the guest room.
"Qingyan, do you think this King Dingnan is hiding from me on purpose?"
Qingyan frowned and thought deeply, "My lord, Qingyan thought that it was such a coincidence that King Dingnan traveled to inspect the border when the lord came to visit, it must have something to do with Gu Xueqiao and the others."
"That's right, I think so too. This guy, King Dingnan, expected that I would definitely ask him to return the city building materials, as well as Gu Xueqiao and the others, so he left for the border in advance so that I couldn't ask for it."
Qingyan smiled and said, "Things are not that simple. He is hiding from us, so why don't we speak up? Don't worry, Lord, no matter what happens this time, Qingyan will definitely help the Lord to get our city building materials and guards back. Looking at Dingnan
In the palace, I’m afraid no one can stop me yet.”
Su Yin smiled knowingly. Indeed, Qingyan was not boasting. Even Nalan Song was not sure that he could fight against Qingyan. You must know that Qingyan can be said to be the culmination of all the masters of the Xiahou family in the past and present. Who can challenge the Xiahou family alone?
What about a clan?
Night fell quickly. Qingyan, Su Yin and the accompanying officials from Dingnan Province were invited to the banquet hall of Dingnan Palace. When they entered the banquet hall, Su Yin found that many people were already sitting there.
In the banquet hall.
Su Yin looked around and found that although these people were all officials under King Dingnan, they were clearly divided into two rows of cultural relics and sat on both sides.
Zhu Tianci brought Su Yin to the table and sat opposite Su Yin. The chairperson's seat was vacant and should have been reserved for the absent King of Dingnan, Luo Tianbo.
"Colleagues, Your Majesty is worried about state affairs and went to the border for inspection a few days ago. However, he happened to miss the meeting with the Duchess of Dingguo. Today, Zhu Tianci will act as a guest and host on behalf of Your Majesty." Zhu Tianci said with a smile, "I'm here.
Let me introduce you to the Duke."
Zhu Tianci introduced the civil servants and generals who sat down one by one. The leader of the tables on the left was called Han Ziping. He was taciturn, but he always revealed a murderous intent. This kind of murderous intent, if it weren't for the many people who went back and forth in the mountains of swords and seas of blood,
It is absolutely impossible to cultivate inferior people.
There seemed to be no leader in the civil service group. Although Zhu Tianci used a lot of flattering words when introducing these people, Su Yin could see that these people always restrained their sharpness in front of Zhu Tianci and seemed to have no interest in them.
He was very afraid.
A retainer could entertain Su Yin instead of King Dingnan himself. Su Yin could tell that Zhu Tianci should be the leader of this group of civil servants.
