Zhao Xuanji turned his head suddenly and looked expressionlessly at Zhang Biwu not far behind him, who was leaning next to Su Zhenting with a smile on his face.
This gaze was like a thorn, and Zhang Biwu also noticed it. He turned his head and looked over. The two people's eyes crossed each other, but Zhang Biwu didn't react at all.
Fu Yuzhi frowned, his expression solemn.
Su Zhenting was also surprised by Zhang Biwu's sudden show of goodwill. He smiled, cupped his hands and said, "Master Zhang, do you have something to say?"
As he spoke, Su Zhenting deliberately slowed down his pace, and the people around him also took the first step forward in a sensible manner.
"let's go."
Zhao Xuanji greeted Yuzhi coldly and left first.
Fu Yuzhi turned to look at Zhang Biwu, opened her mouth to speak but hesitated, finally sighed and followed Zhao Xuanji away.
Seeing the two people leaving one after another, Su Zhenting turned to Zhang Biwu and said, "Master Zhang, do you have anything to say to me now?"
Zhang Biwu said calmly: "I am not using General Su to deliberately provoke others. There is no need."
Su Zhenting's smile did not diminish and he said: "Then what does Mr. Zhang want to say? I am all ears."
Zhang Biwu said solemnly: "I hope to have a chance to meet His Highness alone."
Su Zhenting raised his eyebrows and said, "Now?"
Zhang Biwu shook his head: "Of course there is no need to be so anxious, just do it as soon as possible."
Su Zhenting did not hesitate and said: "I can't make the decision on this matter, but I will find an opportunity to report it to His Highness. Mr. Zhang can just wait for the good news."
"Here comes General Laosu." Zhang Biwu cupped his hands and turned to leave.
In the side hall next door, a banquet that was not extravagant but was sumptuous enough had already been served.
There are meat, vegetables, rice and soup.
Li Chen sat at the main seat and after some casual socializing, everyone started eating.
During the dinner, Su Zhenting tried to convey Zhang Biwu's meaning.
Li Chen, who was eating, paused and said, "I understand."
He didn't say he would meet, he didn't say he wouldn't meet, and he didn't say when he would meet.
Su Zhenting didn't ask either.
He just passed on a message. How to decide is Li Chen's business. There is no need to go through others.
Although there were many people eating, it was surprisingly quiet.
When most officials deal with the imperial dining room, the meals that are good in color, flavor, and flavor are bound to be tasteless.
It's not that the food isn't delicious, it's just that I'm too worried.
The current job appointments only give out the first few most critical core positions, and those positions have nothing to do with them. What they really care about is the middle-level positions in the three provinces and three prefectures, and whether they can get a piece of the pie.
Compared to the future, this food is naturally not that delicious.
While everyone was eating, a person came hurriedly outside the side hall.
An official sitting at the door looked over and saw Chen Tong, who had recently made all officials frightened and hated him to the point of gnashing his teeth.
"What is he here for?"
All the officials looked puzzled, but they saw Chen Tong not squinting and heading straight for Li Chen.
Looking at that posture, it seemed like something urgent was going on.
Some thoughtful people silently stopped their chopsticks and pricked up their ears.
Li Chen raised his eyes and saw Chen Tong's serious expression, and said, "Come closer and talk."
After Chen Tong bowed and apologized, he leaned close to Li Chen's ear. Although his voice was soft, there was an uncontrollable vibrato at the end.
"One hundred thousand firemen reported urgently, and the Liao army's 600,000 cavalry rushed to the Crescent Pass. A beacon tower was raised at the Crescent Pass to urgently ask for help from the imperial court."
