In the back hall of the palace, three tables of wine and food were prepared early in the morning, but the difference was that the princess's table only had a glass of wine... not a pot...
The old king Shang Feng was sitting in the front seat, waiting for the two young men while drinking from a cup alone... There was an imperceptible cold light in his eyes...
It wasn't until he saw his daughter entering the palace that he quickly put down his wine glass and put on a smiling face.
"Here you come? Hurry! Sit down, sit down! The seat over there is reserved for you!"
As Shang Feng spoke, he pointed at the next seat to prevent his daughter from sitting in the wrong position.
Shang Wuxie lowered his head and looked at the position his father pointed at. He was also confused and quickly asked in a low voice: "Father, what kind of distinguished guest are you inviting? Your daughter actually wants to sit in the second seat?"
?”
"Hey~~~ Don't worry! You'll know when they arrive soon..."
"Why are you still playing riddles with your daughter? It's true...the older you get, the less serious you become..." Shang Wuxie complained in a low voice, and without thinking much, he sat down at his seat and was about to pick up his chopsticks to take a bite.
Food, but was stopped by the old king’s words...
"Tsk! We're not here yet! Why are you so greedy? You don't know etiquette..."
"Oh, aren't we just the father and daughter now? No one can see..."
"You are not allowed to eat it either!! Wait until everyone is here before eating!!"
Upon hearing this, Shang Wuxie was slightly startled, slowly put down the chopsticks in his hand, and looked at his father with a suspicious look on his face...
"Father...why are you...different from usual today..."
"I??I, do I have??"
"Look! You're already stuttering! You stutter whenever you feel guilty! You've been having this problem for many years..."
"Oh! Your dad, can't I stutter once in a while?? I feel guilty when I stutter? Then why don't I stutter now!"
"Your Majesty...His Royal Highness Prince Qi has arrived..."
While the father and daughter were bickering, the little eunuch on the side came closer, leaned over and whispered in the old king's ear. The old king then nodded and said: "Let him come in..."
"yes……"
The little eunuch followed the order and slowly exited the hall. After a while, Wang Wenshuo strode in...
Seeing Shang Wuxie rubbing his hands with the food, he was stunned for a moment, then quickly turned his head and bowed his hands to the old king...
"The young man Wang Wenshuo has met the senior..."
Why are you shouting like that?
Because strictly speaking... he and the King of the Ryukyu Kingdom are considered equals when standing together! And in terms of status, he, the second prince of the Liang Kingdom, is much higher than the old king, so if he wants to be called according to his status... he should
It was the old king who saluted him... So Wang Wenshuo could only shout according to his age at this time... so as not to embarrass the three of them...
As soon as the old king heard this title, he immediately nodded with satisfaction. It seems that his prospective son-in-law is not just an illusion... He is indeed a dragon and a phoenix among men!!
He quickly raised his hand and replied: "We are all a family sooner or later, so why should we be so polite? Come on! The seat is reserved for you. Sit down quickly!"
"Who, who is a family member with him...!!"
Before Wang Wenshuo could sit down, Shang Wuxie jumped up from his seat, pointed at him and shouted loudly: "So the distinguished guest my father mentioned is this white-eyed wolf!? I should have known that my daughter wouldn't even come!!"
Obviously... Shang Wuxie was still angry because of the previous incident... and the old king was not used to her at this time, and directly replied: "Then you can leave if you want... As a father, I will find someone else."
Come over and have a drink with me, Xiao Chengzi, and go bring Shangshu Ling’s daughter into the palace..."
"yes……"
The little eunuch bowed his hands and just took two steps when he heard the princess's voice from behind... 81Zw.????m
"Come back!! Go and serve your king! Don't listen to him! He is old and confused!!"
"This..." Upon hearing this, the little eunuch quickly looked at the old king with a troubled face, but the king was not angry, but waved to him with a smile...
There is no better way to know a daughter than her father...
When the old king controls his daughter, he is sure to pinch it...
As the little eunuch slowly walked back, Shang Wuxie also slowly sat back down, glanced at Wang Wenshuo secretly, and turned away angrily...
Wang Wenshuo looked at the angry Shang Wuxie opposite him and shook his head with a wry smile. Then he raised his glass and said to the old king: "This junior has been injured in the past two years. Thanks to the care of my senior and his daughter, he picked it up."
I have saved my life. I have long wanted to express my gratitude to my senior in person, but I have been suffering from the lack of opportunity. Today... I finally get to meet my senior. I should do my best to show my gratitude to you..."
After saying that, he took back the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, then raised the bottom of the wine glass with both hands in the air so that the old king could see it. He used the courtesy of a common people and condescended himself to express his sincere gratitude...
The old man saw it in his eyes, but he was happy in his heart...
How Daliang usually views his small country, no one else knows, but the old king knows best...
Not to mention the royal family members of Daliang, even a random envoy from Daliang would act arrogant and arrogant when he came to him.
So...save him...save him, you deserve it! How can you be grateful?
The reason why the other party deliberately appeared so humble was definitely not because of my age...
Naturally, it’s all about my daughter’s face...
This king...can he still be confused?
Thinking of this, the old king showed a wry smile, slowly raised his wine glass, and said softly: "Actually, this king holds this family banquet mainly for two things... One... is to celebrate our celestial dynasty.
This time, Shangbang is victorious! Clean up the world! Defeat Varro in one fell swoop!! So, let’s drink this cup together!”
After saying that, the old man slowly turned back to look at his daughter, and whispered: "Daughter, you have to respect this glass of wine... not for any other reason, just because you are my king's daughter, and I...
...He is also a vassal of the Daliang Saint Emperor. Do you...understand this principle...?"
Upon hearing this, Shang Wuxie, who looked depressed just now, seemed to be a different person now. With a solemn look on his face, he raised his hand to raise the wine glass on the table...
As the actual person in power of the Ryukyu Kingdom, she can still distinguish between public and private affairs...
The old king smiled and nodded, and then drank it all in one gulp!
Naturally, Wang Wenshuo and Monk Wuxie could not hesitate and hurriedly drank with him!
After finishing the drink, Shang Wuxie slowly put the wine glass back on the table, shook his head and looked around, but couldn't find the wine bottle, so he shouted directly: "Come here! Fill the wine!"
"No...Daughter, you...don't have to fall again..."
"Father? Why is this? You know your daughter's drinking capacity..." Shang Wuxie was halfway through his words when he suddenly got stuck... because she already felt something was wrong at this time, and her heart was pounding.
She was jumping wildly, and there was even a trace of heat on her face... Just when she looked confused, the old king who was sitting in the seat slowly looked at Wang Wenshuo and spoke word by word...
"And the second thing I have to do... is to decide on the princess's marriage today! Because I... am already old... I may die at any time and my life will go to heaven... And I
The most uneasy thing before closing my eyes... is my only daughter... this cup of 'Acacia Wine'... she... has already drank it...
If His Highness the Second Prince has no interest in my princess... he can get up and leave... In the side hall... is the distant descendant that this king has found from the clan... They two... can get married today... But
If His Highness the Second Prince is interested in my daughter! Then... I will do it myself... I... will go back to the palace to rest..."
After saying that, the old king let out a long sigh, stood up with difficulty from the table, and limped toward the outside of the palace...
The entire process did not look back at the panicked daughter...
Not even turning around to take a look at the astonished prospective son-in-law...
Because in his opinion...
For the royal family, it is naturally good to be able to obtain love...
