Chapter 127: The King of Zhennan Arrives

Early in the morning, King Zhennan's Luan drove to the north gate of the Flame City. Duan Wuxian took the officials and celebrities in the Flame City to greet the king of Zhennan at the north gate of the Flame City. The people who came to greet him were all carefully arranged and selected by Duan Wuxi. Although he hated the Zhao family, the Xu family and others, he had to invite them over to greet them. Because the higher the level of the person who came to greet the prince, the more important he attached to the arrival of the prince. His arrival must be greeted with the highest courtesy, otherwise the prince blames him for not being able to bear it.

If no one from the Zhao family and the Xu family came to greet him, once he was blamed by the prince, he would not be able to eat and walk around, Duan Wuxian would definitely not make such a low-level mistake at this time. Now he didn't have many followers in Flame City, and if he didn't invite the Xu family and the Zhao family to come, he believed that most of the families wouldn't come, because they all looked at the Zhao family.

The person who came from the Zhao family today is Zhao Zhenduo, and the person who came from the Xu family is Xu Baichuan. Except for the officials of the City Lord's Mansion and a few families, almost all of the rest of the people who came over were from the Zhao family and the Xu family. Looking at the welcoming team, Duan Wuxian was very annoyed. He had completely lost control in the City of Fire, and these dignitaries almost ignored him anymore.

When the king of Zhennan arrived, his guard of honor was very spectacular, a group of thousands of people lined up neatly, majestic, showing the pomp and demeanor of the prince. For the first time in hundreds of years, the prince of Flame City came, and it was almost the first time for everyone to see this kind of battle, and everyone was excited, nervous, and excited. It was a rare opportunity to be invited to greet King Zhennan.

The honor guard of the king of Zhennan stopped, and the carriage in which the prince was riding also stopped. Duan Wuxian hurriedly led everyone forward, and everyone knelt on the ground to welcome Lin Huai's arrival. It doesn't matter how rich you are, no matter how high your realm cultivation is, since you have come to greet you, you must kneel down to greet you, otherwise it will be a great rebellion.

"Xiaguan Flame City City Lord Duan has no trace, and greets Lord Shengcha, the king of Zhennan. Duan Wuxian knelt on the ground and said respectfully.

Lin Huai, the king of Zhennan, rode in a four-horse carriage, which was wide and luxurious. In the Blue Wolf Empire, there was a strict hierarchy of carriages, the emperor rode in a six-horse carriage, while the princes rode in a four-horse carriage, and ordinary officials could only ride a two-horse carriage.

And ordinary people can only ride in a horse-drawn carriage, even if you have money, you can't trespass the etiquette system, otherwise you will be guilty. Some people who have made special contributions to the empire can get special approval from the emperor, which is a great gift to him.

Horses themselves are war materials, and there are very few people who own horses. The carriage is a symbol of status, and the selection of materials should be excellent, the manufacturing should be fine, and the carving should be exquisite. The person who owns the carriage is either rich or noble, which is a status symbol.

Warriors, however, rarely rode in carriages, and they generally rode horses. After all, the carriage was relatively slow, and they didn't like it.

Lin Huai walked out of the carriage wearing a python robe, he looked around, smiled at everyone kneeling on the ground and said, "Everyone please get up, thank you for going out of the city to greet you, this king has thanked you." ”

He walked up to Duan Wuxian and personally picked up Duan Wuxian, Duan Wuxian was a little flattered, he didn't understand why Lin Huai was so polite to him.

Lin Huai's attitude towards Duan Wuxian surprised many people, could it be that Duan Wuxian had a big background, why would King Zhennan be so polite to him?

Duan Wuxian then began to introduce the main characters who came to greet the King of Zhennan. He first introduced the officials of the City Lord's Mansion, and then introduced Zhao Zhenduo and Xu Baichuan.

"Lord Wang, this is Zhao Zhenduo of the Zhao family, the first family of our Flame City. After Duan Wuxian finished his introduction, he stood aside. Under normal circumstances, Zhao Zhenduo stepped forward to salute, and the prince nodded and passed. But as soon as Duan Wuxian finished his introduction, King Zhennan quickly stepped forward and held Zhao Zhenduo's hand tightly and refused to relax.

"Brother Zhenduo, I have admired the name for a long time. I haven't had a chance to come to visit you, and today I let you go out of the city to greet you in person, and I'm really ashamed to be a brother. ”

King Zhennan's performance made everyone dumbfounded, the prince actually called Zhao Zhenduo a brother and brother, what kind of friendship does this have? In the past, I only knew that King Zhennan protected the Zhao family and had a good relationship with the Zhao family. Today's meeting confirmed the news, they not only have a good relationship, but also are very close. King Zhennan and Zhao Zhenduo exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Zhao Zhenduo introduced Xu Baichuan to King Zhennan.

"Lord Wang, this is Brother Xu Baichuan Xu. ”

"I've seen the prince. Xu Baichuan hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

"You two can't be polite to me, let alone call me prince, just call me Second Brother Lin. If you call me Lord again, then I will be angry, and the family can't speak two languages. Everyone listened to the words of King Zhennan, and everyone was shocked or shocked, they finally knew that the relationship between the King of Zhennan and the Zhao family was so close.

Everyone's eyes showed envy, and the status of the Zhao family and the Xu family in their hearts was instantly elevated a lot. There were still some disobedient people in the past, but today they are all gone, and the Zhao family is really not something they can offend. The Zhao family is not only rich, but also masters, and the Zhao family's backers are even more powerful.

After Duan Wuxian introduced some representative figures, he led the way to welcome the King of Zhennan to the City Lord's Mansion. The honor guard and the entourage were arranged to stay in an inn in the city, and they ate in a restaurant. Only a few personal soldiers and accompanying officials followed the prince.

Duan Wuxian was in the City Lord's Mansion today, and he held a banquet to welcome the King of Zhennan. Many of the people who went to greet him were also left in the city lord's mansion to accompany the prince to dinner. Zhao Zhenduo and Xu Baichuan and others, although a hundred of them were unwilling to stay in the City Lord's Mansion for dinner, but it was the King of Zhennan who came today, and they had to stay and accompany them, and this was their own people who had to accompany them.

"City Lord Duan, I heard that Yanbei Hou lives in the Zhao family, why don't you invite Yanbei Hou to come over and drink together?" When King Zhennan said this, everyone was surprised, Yanbei Hou actually lived in the Zhao family's mansion?

Although Duan Wuxian knew that Yanbei Hou lived in the Zhao family, they were not in the same camp, and at the same time, Yanbei Hou was not a tolerance, so he had been pretending not to know. Now that King Zhennan has made it clear, he can't continue to pretend.

"Brother Zhenduo, why didn't the Marquis of Yanbei tell me in your mansion? Aren't you embarrassing me like this, if the Hou Ye blames me, I can't afford it. Duan Wuxian looked like he wanted to cover up, which made Zhao Zhenduo very disgusted.

But he couldn't help but talk to him: "Lord City, Lord Hou just arrived yesterday. Because he came here for private matters and didn't want to disturb anyone, he didn't tell you, so I'll go and ask Master Hou to come over now. After Zhao Zhenduo finished speaking, he wanted to go back to the house to invite Yanbeihou.

"Brother Zhenduo, you just sit here honestly, and let City Lord Duan personally invite this to show your sincerity. In this way, Yanbei Hou would not blame the Duan City Lord. Duan City Lord, am I talking about it or not?" asked King Zhennan with a smile Duan Wuxian asked.

"What the prince said is very true, I will go over and invite Yanbei Hou now. Duan Wuxian hurriedly asked people to prepare the carriage, and then quickly rushed to the Zhao Mansion.

When Duan Wuxian came to the Zhao family's mansion, it was already full of people with good deeds, and they all came to see the excitement. The Zhao family and the city lord are mortal enemies, and they want to see what kind of expression Duan Wuxian has when he comes to the Zhao family, and how he will behave.

"Please go in and report to the patriarch of the Zhao family, and say that Duan Wuxian came to meet Yanbei Hou. Duan Wuxian was not a fool, he lowered his posture very low. There are two big people here today, this is not trivial, there must be no mistakes, otherwise I will be even more embarrassed.

Jia Ding was very relieved to see Duan Wuxian whispering, and he slowly walked into the backyard, just to let Duan Wuxian stand at the door for a while, deliberately embarrassing him. After a long time, Yanbei Hou, accompanied by Zhao Wuwei, walked out of the Zhao family's mansion. When Duan Wuxian saw Yanbei Hou, he immediately knelt on the ground and bowed to Fang Jun.

"Xiaguan Duan visited Lord Hou without a trace, and Xia Guan didn't know that Lord Hou had arrived, and he hoped that Lord Hou would forgive his sins. Duan Wuxian kowtowed three times in succession.

"Then how do you know that I am in the Zhao Mansion now?" Fang Jun asked with a smile, but he didn't let Duan Wuxian get up, without him, Duan Wuxian could only kneel and answer Fang Jun's question.

"Back to the Hou Ye, it was the prince who said that you were in the mansion, and after the lower officials knew about it, they hurried over to invite the Hou Ye to come over and drink. Duan Wuxian knelt there and didn't even dare to raise his head, he was now frightened, for fear that Yanbei Hou would blame him.

"Get up and talk, since the prince is in your mansion, then I will go with you to the city lord's mansion to see the prince now. Duan Wuxian wiped the cold sweat from his head, and then invited Yanbei Hou into the carriage and went straight to the City Lord's Mansion. Many people saw Duan Wuxian kneeling at the door of the Zhao family's mansion, and they all felt that this was very pleasant, and it was very annoying to everyone in normal times.

"I've seen Master Hou. "When Yanbei Hou came to the City Lord's Mansion, everyone hurried to make a big salute. But Zhao Zhenduo and Xu Baichuan didn't make a big salute, they just hugged their fists as a salute. When King Zhennan saw Yanbeihou hurriedly stepped forward, he took his hand and said, "I'm here, why don't you come over for a few drinks, let's go, let's sit together." ”

King Zhennan arranged Yanbeihou by his side, and the people at the main table were arranged by him. In addition to him and Yanbei Hou, it is the city lord Duan Wuxian and Zhao Zhenduo and Xu Baichuan. His meaning was obvious, and everyone understood it.

After a meal, Duan Wuxian was like sitting on pins and needles, and cold sweat kept breaking out on his head. He can't afford to offend these two big people, in case he upsets them, he, the city lord, has done it. Fortunately, the king of Zhennan and the marquis of Yanbei only cared about talking and laughing with Zhao Zhenduo, kept drinking, and completely ignored his existence.

The luncheon didn't end until the afternoon, and Duan Wuxian arranged for King Zhennan and the others to stay at the best inn in Flame City. Originally, he wanted to have a separate banquet for the king of Zhennan in the evening, but he was refused. A welcome banquet has already given him face, and Lin Huai has already decided that he will not accept Duan Wuxian's invitation again.

Acting on the spot is not his strong point, so he doesn't have time to deal with Duan Wuxi. Duan Wuxian didn't want to be bored with himself, since the prince didn't want to go, he didn't dare to say anything more. Not people in one camp, and there is nothing to talk about.
