Early the next morning, Li Xiaobai was preparing to leave for the palace for a banquet.
Yesterday, Ouyang Yue'er told him that today the leader of the Zhenyuan Kingdom would hold a banquet, and he would invite him to discuss cooperation matters in detail, and also thank him in person for saving Ouyang Shuang'er.
Li Xiaobai was very speechless. There was nothing new in this family's operation. They always stabilized themselves first, and then held a banquet to invite themselves to the meeting. Ouyang Yue'er had already used this operation once, and the leader of the Zhenyuan Kingdom couldn't do it.
Come up with something new?
There are many rules in the palace and the security is tight. If you want to meet the king, you need to take a bath and burn incense. These are supervised by attendants.
Li Xiaobai was taken to a small house, soaked in a pool, bathed and changed clothes.
"How come there are so many things to do when meeting the king of the country? They are still waiting for us to go to the banquet!"
"Mr. Li, don't you dare to say such nonsense. Bathing and burning incense is a courtesy. Being able to meet the king is a supreme honor!"
The waiter was startled by these words. The young man spoke a little fiercely.
At the same time, inside the palace and in front of the palace.
The banquets on the left and right were already complete, and dignitaries from all walks of life had arrived early. Even the people from Huolin Cave had arrived, except that Li Xiaobai was not here.
The leader of the Zhenyuan Kingdom frowned. Li Xiaobai seemed a little ignorant of the importance of being late for such a grand occasion. He simply didn't take him seriously.
"Everyone, you are here today to give me, Ouyang Di, some face. I'd like to toast you all!"
After a while, the Lord of Zhenyuan raised his glass and drank it with everyone. The banquet had begun. Ouyang Shuang'er felt a little anxious. She was like an outsider here. Li Xiaobai had not shown up for a long time, which made her feel anxious.
Very unconfident.
"This is the little princess Ouyang Shuang'er. She is really handsome. It is really a joy to be married to the disciple of Huolin Cave!"
Many dignitaries praised it.
"My dear, thank you all uncles and uncles for your love."
Ouyang Shuang'er forced a smile and looked at the people in Huolin Cave opposite. They were all eating and drinking alone, and no one cared about her at all.
"I wonder which genius from Huolin Cave is the one who made the engagement with Miss Shuang'er this time? Could it be Young Hero Yunkunyun?"
An old man stroked his beard and asked with a smile. He was one of the worshipers of the Zhenyuan Kingdom and had cultivated in the Tribulation Period.
Hearing the old man's question, the people in Huolin Cave also put down their bowls and chopsticks, and replied with a smile: "Young disciples are incompetent, and they are not considered geniuses. The one who is getting married this time is Mr. Zhang Wei."
Yunyan pointed at the disciple next to him and said, the worshiper's cultivation level is similar to his, so he still needs to deal with it seriously. This is a world where strength speaks for itself, and only the strong can gain respect.
Ouyang Shuang'er looked at the disciple, his face even paler. He was obviously just an ordinary disciple. His cultivation level was probably not even at the Nascent Soul stage, and his strength was even weaker than hers. If such a person married him, he would really become
A victim of the royal family.
Everyone's expressions were also a little strange. I'm afraid this disciple is not an official outer disciple, but just a handyman. He actually asked the handyman disciple to marry the princess of Zhenyuan Kingdom. This Huolin Cave is a bit overbearing.
The old man who worshiped the old man didn't care about these details. For Zhenyuan Kingdom, it just needed to marry Huolindong to get a good reputation. As for who the other party sent to marry, it didn't matter.
"Haha, that's right. He is indeed a disciple of Huolin Cave. He is a talented person. He has already reached this level of cultivation at a young age. It's really good. The future is promising!"
The dignitaries were speechless. You are the best in the world at telling lies, but on the outside you still toasted with a smile and looked good-natured.
"Shuang'er, when will your friend arrive? My father and the emperor are all here today, and there are also distinguished guests from Huolin Cave, but he still refuses to show up. Isn't it too much?"
After drinking for three rounds, Ouyang Yue'er said sarcastically that she was extremely unhappy with Ouyang Shuang'er.
"Sister, my father hasn't said anything yet, why are you anxious?" the second princess said calmly as she poured herself a drink.
"That's right, today's little sister's wedding is the top priority for me. It seems that the eldest sister hasn't given her blessing to the little sister yet?" The third princess smiled with a hidden knife.
The eldest princess has a big tree and attracts the wind, and the other princesses like to spare no effort to target her.
"You are too abrupt as a sister. Little sister, you are engaged today. Big sister wishes you happiness!"
Ouyang Yue'er's eyes flashed with cold light, and she said with a smile on her face.
"There are guests coming, who are they?"
Yunyan from Huolin Cave had enough to eat and drink, and had nothing to do, so he asked casually.
"It's a big boss, my father. My two sons don't want to get married. When the big boss finishes his work, he will take me away!"
Ouyang Shuang'er stood up suddenly and said.
As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was silent. They did not expect that the little princess who had always been submissive would be so bold and blatantly refused the marriage of Huolin Cave. This was causing trouble for the Zhenyuan Kingdom!
You know, those guys from Huolin Cave are sitting next to you. Do you have any idea about discussing it with your father, the emperor and the empress alone?
If you say this in front of others, if they are not happy, I am afraid that the palace will be demolished today.
"Nonsense, Elder Yun. Shuang'er drank too much. Please don't take it to heart. I, the king, apologize to you." Ouyang Di raised his glass and drank it all.
"Little sister, how can you be so ignorant? I let you marry into Huolin Cave for your own good. Please make amends to Mr. Zhang Wei!" Ouyang Yue'er shouted in a stern voice.
"Shuang'er must not be rude. Being able to marry into Huolin Cave is a blessing to our Zhenyuan Kingdom. Don't act like a child. Someone, come and take the little princess to sober up!"
Behind the curtain, the woman spoke.
"Wait a minute, madam, this girl Shuang'er has some character, which I appreciate very much, but I want to know more, who is the big boss that girl Shuang'er talks about, who can actually give you such confidence?"
Yunyan stopped the waiter who came forward and asked with a smile, but anyone could see the killing intent in his eyes.
"The boss is very strong. The boss and I share adversities in the secret realm of Tianbei. If you bully me like this, the boss will not sit idly by and ignore you!"
Ouyang Shuang'er's legs were trembling a little, and she said in a tearful voice that she was extremely scared, but she would risk it for the rest of her life.
"who is he!"
Yunyan's face was as dark as water, and he stared at Ouyang Shuang'er closely. He was very angry that a declining Confucian and Taoist country could so despise the majesty of Huolin Cave.
The atmosphere in the venue instantly froze, and everyone felt like their breathing was stagnant and their hearts were beating wildly.
Ouyang Di and the lady behind the curtain did not dare to speak. They were extremely angry. This Ouyang Shuang'er would probably ruin the friendship they had worked so hard to establish with Huolindong. What a rebellious woman!
Tears welled up in Ouyang Shuang'er's eyes. This was the first time she had experienced this kind of situation. The people in Huolin Cave in front of her were like hungry tigers descending from the mountain, as if they could tear her into pieces at any time. She regretted a little and said
Those words might cost her her life today.
At this time, a voice with a solemn tone also came from outside the hall: "It's me!"
