Chapter 156: Birthday Banquet
There is an endless stream of people who offer gifts, and there are endless people who use them to play and watch, all of them are the most expensive and seem to be very bullish things, anyway, Yang Jiuyi has listened to ten, and there is no thing with a name within five words! And the gift session, which should be happy and joyful, always smells of gunpowder, competing for beauty, and I don't know what I want to show. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Yang Jiu looked bored, yawned and began to observe the guests attending the banquet. According to the physiognomy and seating of these people, combined with the list given to him by wood, the identities of some of them can be guessed to some extent.
However, when Yang Jiu looked at others, many people were also looking at him. Hey, who let my brother make a dazzling existence~╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭Although it is very suitable for the feeling of being in the spotlight, there is really a sight in it that is too piercing, and I can't ignore it......
Looking along the laser light, Yang Jiu was not surprised to see an acquaintance.
In my impression, he is still a fifteen or sixteen-year-old exotic boy, with healthy wheat-colored skin, slightly curly shoulder-length brown hair, and a little guy who likes to go barefoot. Now, he is already a handsome young man with a tall body and sword eyebrows~ Well, the complexion is darker, the hair is not long, not to mention that it has even been cut into small curls close to the ears, if you don't look at the clothes, it really feels like a modern mixed-race child! Let Yang Jiu inexplicably say very kindly!
Hawkers,Although it's a big change.,But it still looks like the idiot who looked like a teddy.,Bomerian-oriented.、Brainwave Erhafan.,Feel that canine-like eyes.,Hehe.。
This one sat on the opposite side and slightly to the left of Yang Jiu, which was the delegation of many small countries lined up after the prince and princess of the Anling Dynasty.
Aaron, the fourth prince of the Romans.
Yang Jiu was a little surprised when he saw this introduction on the roster~ Although he knew that the little guy's background was definitely not bad, the one he casually abducted on the road was a member of the royal family, and sure enough, the pig's foot aura was too invincible...... ╮( ̄_ ̄)╭
It is said that the fourth prince was still a freak who was only drunk on drugs before he was fifteen years old, but after he was lost and sent back to China by Emperor Yaoguang Cang himself, he didn't know what stimulated him, and he began to work hard. Today, the fourth prince, Aaron, is already one of the top martial arts masters and the first poisoner in the Roman Kingdom, and he has also begun to emerge politically, posing a great threat to several other princes. However, compared to other princes, who liked infighting, this Aaronic prince seems to be particularly fond of diplomacy. But it's not surprising that in such a small country, of course, it's more important to actively hold the thighs diplomatically than internal development~ Insiders feel that this little prince is very politically conscious, but in fact, most of the people here don't know much about this prince who was born in a small country and has only risen in the past year.
The above is the information provided by Yuge. I have to say that Duanmu Xiu, the master of Tingyu Pavilion, who has never met, is really the best partner of the year, and he is so carefully and meticulously prepared.
Yang Jiu smiled slightly at the young man who could vaguely see the shadow of the past.
Aaron was stunned for a moment, and then a pair of very beautiful cat eyes suddenly brightened! The whole person shook his head, and he felt that he could see the tail dangling behind him......
Uh~ Yang Jiu twitched the corners of his mouth, shook his head with a smile, and then looked away, looked towards his right side, and exchanged a friendly smile with Yan Cang, who was looking at him, and then staggered.
Yang Jiu's gaze slipped directly to Yan Cang's opposite, that person also had an unfamiliar face, but it was more recognizable than Yan Cang, because that man had a very typical Yanzhi appearance. This person is the eldest prince of Yanzhi, Helian Tieqi.
Compared to Helian Duyan, who has half of Yaoguang's bloodline, Helian Tieqi's appearance is obviously more impactful and dangerous, or wild. He is tall and has eyes like a falcon. However, his dripping eyes really ruined this masculinity, and he was staring at the emperor's concubines and some ministers and princes' daughters quite explicitly, full of lewdness/evil taste.
is really worthy of Duanmu Xiu's evaluation of him - just a lustful reckless man.
Helian Tieqi, in addition to his brave fighting instincts, is probably a bit interesting as a big prince. At least for now, Yang Jiu felt that if it wasn't for An Ling's support, he didn't know how many times this thing would have been delayed by Helian!
However, it could probably be said that it was worthy of being a combat race, and at the same time that he was full of River Crab Small Theater, he actually noticed Yang Jiu's gaze and looked at it. After confirming that Yang Jiu was the late Queen You just now, he suddenly showed a disdainful sneer at Yang Jiu.
Yang Jiu was dumbfounded for a moment! o_o
it! Who gave this product the confidence to hang like this?! Are you stupid? Forget about your own political idiot, don't you look at other people's attitudes towards your brother? , stupid fork with an urgent IQ! To be able to live until now is simply a virtue of a good life!
Rolling his eyes, Yang Jiu decided to look at something beautiful to cultivate his sentiments.
His gaze drifted from Helian Tieqi to the left over the two concubines, and a pair of round peach blossom eyes met him, and he couldn't help but smile dotingly.
An Lingxi received Yang Jiu's "pleading" signal, and the boredom in his heart for more than 20 days was slightly reduced, but he still expressed his dissatisfaction with a small face. Hum! Bad baba said that he would leave, but he didn't inform the prince of this! Don't like poop anymore! ╭(╯^╰)╮
The little guy is angry...... Yang Jiu couldn't cry or laugh, thinking that he would appease the little bun later~
One more to the left, another acquaintance.
Concubine Xuan, Xi Yingxuan.
Xi Yingxuan, who had been watching everyone's gifts, looked at Yang Jiu the moment his eyes fell on him, and then smiled at Yang Jiu, very lightly, completely social, but Yang Jiu, as the recipient, felt her sincerity, naturally, he did not spare his friendliness.
Although he didn't have much impression of this "sister-in-law", her younger brother was a friend of Yang Jiu, and he was also the first batch of literati to stand up for Yang Jiu's whitewashing in this incident.
Speaking of which, Yang Jiu was a little surprised that Xi Yingxuan's vigilance, or sixth sense, could instantly detect other people's sights...... However, he probably won't know that Xi Yingxuan didn't dare to look at him directly because of his identity, but in fact, he had been paying attention to him with his spare eyes.
As for Xi Linfeng, he is just a bachelor of Hanlin Academy, and he is still an intern, even if he can come to celebrate his birthday, he must be in a distant corner of the pavilion...... There is also Fu Qiyang, who reads as a sixth grade, and it stands to reason that he should be in a certain corner, but how to say that he is also the prince, presumably in the pavilion closer to the high platform. Thinking so, Yang Jiu didn't look for them.
finally looked at the other side, coincidentally, it was An Lingyu. Poor Thirteenth Prince, just because Yang Jiu looked at it unexpectedly, his hands shook in fright, the pastry in his mouth snapped on the table, his face was bitter, and he quickly lowered his head and drank wildly, not daring to raise his head.
Poof—this kid is getting more and more fun.
"Royal gift-" The duck's voice sounded, and an old eunuch announced the next gift.
So it started with the five concubines, and then began to offer gifts to the concubines, princes, princesses, and county kings. Most of the jewelry taken out by the harem concubines is a formality, although it is delicate and expensive, it is not very brilliant. The gifts of the princes are similar to those ministers who racked their brains to appease the queen mother, they are all rare things, but they have seen too much, and they are not necessarily very special.
Another prince sat down, and then no one stepped forward for a long time. Some guests who were not in the state secretly asked the people next to them, even the king of the county had finished giving gifts, why didn't they start the next item? It's strangely quiet......
The man would give him a look for himself, and he soon noticed that the quiet eyes were focused on one person.
Undoubtedly, it is our Lord Youwang.
Yang Jiu lay on the table and carefully placed the crystal cake in his hand on the top layer of the crystal cake tower that had been piled up just now-
"Oh yes! Succeed! Yang Jiuyi clenched his fists, very excited, and then seemed to discover the strange atmosphere of the entire square, looking at the embarrassed faces of a group of people innocently, turning his head and asking Yun Wuxiu beside him: "What's going on?" ”
"It's time for you to give a gift, lord."
"Oh~" Yang Jiu was stunned, and then seemed to feel that something was wrong, and continued to question Yun Wuxiu, "Why don't you remind me?" ”
Yun Wuxiu smiled faintly, "Wuxiu saw that the prince was very selfless and couldn't bear to disturb him. ”
Yang Jiu: Σ(っ°Д°; This product is actually natural black, right?!
Yang Jiu turned his head to look at the light dust on the other side, and the young man was blaming himself. I think the little guy has never seen such a battle, and it is estimated that he still understood what the current state was after listening to Yun Wuxiu's words just now.
Turning around again, Yang Jiu reached out and pinched the thumb-sized pastry on the top floor of the crystal cake tower, and quickly stuffed it into Yun Wuxiu's mouth, smiling like a big boy who had succeeded in a prank. "Reward my dear relatives Wuxiu for being so considerate of this king~"
Everyone sees that this is the case, and King You can still laugh with the male pets, there are really too many slots, but I am a little speechless......_(:3∠)_
Finally, after a long wait, Yang Jiu got up and straightened his robe, waved at An Ruxue, and said calmly: "After enlightening the mother, the congratulatory gifts of the sons are still waiting outside the hall, and I plan to wait until the night to offer them, and wait for the queen mother." ”
Everyone was suddenly interested, what do you have to offer at night? It can't be a prevarication, right? King You came in such a hurry, it is very likely that he didn't have time to prepare a congratulatory gift!
Obviously, An Ruxue also thought so, so she naturally hurriedly revealed: "You might as well talk about it at the night banquet." Grandpa Yu—"
The old eunuch immediately understood, "Friendly gifts—"
Yang Jiu sat down, unconcerned about those vague and mocking glances. lazily fell back, complaining like a liar: "Xiao Chichi didn't remind me, look at this king's shame~"
Chiyang looked down at Yang Jiu, who was smiling and had no reproach at all, and responded indifferently: "Chiyang thinks that the master did it on purpose. ”
"Cut-" Yang Jiu pouted.
Well, although Chiyang may really just believe in Yang Jiu, Yang Jiu is really intentional when he is so unobtrusive. Although Yang Jiu had to be high-profile to whitewash in order to offset the negative attention brought by those demonic theories, he didn't plan to perform too well~
"The minister is the envoy of the Ember State of Tianluo, and this time I came to congratulate the Empress Dowager Anling on the birthday of the Empress Dowager on behalf of our monarch, and wish the Empress Dowager Wanfu Jin Anshou than Tianqi! This is my emperor's congratulatory gift to the queen mother, purple black gold, is the best calcined mother gold, only half a penny to join the calcination of machinery, weapons, can greatly improve the success rate of smelting and product quality, the most suitable for the manufacture of weapons of the gods. A man standing on the left and right, dressed in a costume presumably unique to their country, displayed a dark purple "briquette" the size of a baby's fist in his hand, then put it back in the gift box and handed it to the eunuch of Anling by his own servants.
Yang Jiu bounced up from the ground when the man said the purple black essence gold, and lay on the table and looked at the briquette with great interest, these strange things are much more interesting than any golden hairpin and silver hairpin!
"So little, it's so stingy!" Yang Jiu whispered.
To Yang Jiu's surprise, Qingchen actually took the initiative to explain: "Purple Black Essence Gold is an extremely rare ore that is a specialty of the Heavenly Ember Country, and being able to take out such a piece of Purple Black Essence Gold is already a very heavy gift!" ”
Yang Jiu was slightly surprised, and then remembered that Qingchen liked to see those customs and gazetteers, and he was suddenly very surprised! picked up a piece of pastry and fed it to Qingchen's mouth, and praised it without hesitation: "My little dust is so amazing!" This is the reward, come, open your mouth, ah~"
"Male... Lord Wang, everyone is watching, ......" The young man was happy with Yang Jiu's approval, and blushed again because of Yang Jiu's teasing.
Yang Jiu didn't give up, "You don't care what you do, if you don't eat it, I'll eat it~"
Qingchen hurriedly shook his head, and then took a bite of the small pastry without thinking, when Yang Jiu's fingers were caressing in his cherry sandalwood mouth, he realized that he had actually bit Yang Jiu's fingers just now, and suddenly his little face was even more red, and he didn't dare to look at Yang Jiu's narrow eyes and the attention around him.
At this time, Yun Wuxiu on the other side added: "The Heavenly Ember Country is originally a country that is good at forging weapons, and most of the many weapons on the list that have been circulated in the world are from the hands of famous craftsmen of the Heavenly Ember Country. But in the end, it is unlucky to send weapons at the birthday banquet, on the other hand, it can be said that the monarch of the Ember Kingdom can take out the purple black essence gold. ”
"Huh?" Yang Jiu seemed to be very surprised, looking at Yun Wuxiu, and smiling ill-intentionedly, "Wuxiu forcibly explained, did he want this king's reward?" ”
Yun Wuxiu smiled: "Thank you for your kindness, but Wuxiu doesn't like these pastries." ”
"Don't like sweets? Then what flavor do you like, I'll make it for you next time~"
The "......" focuses on... This one? Yun Wuxiu looked at Yang Jiu's expectant eyes, and the ghost made a difference, "Spicy." ”
"Oh! What a surprise! ”ooo
These few people are here to talk about some non-nutritious topics, and of course the activities over there have not stopped, but the tables on both sides of them are a little speechless. Yang Jiu, the specialty of those small countries, is very interested, although he is gagging, but he also looks at it carefully, and the two around him will popularize science for him if he doesn't know. After a while, it was the turn of the representatives of the Romance Kingdom.
Yang Jiu looked at the young man who walked down the stairs, and estimated that there should be one meter eighty-five! Tsk, this large dog is developing well~
"I am the fourth prince of the Romans, Aaron. On behalf of our country, we will send this 'smell' ......" Aaron held a small flower pot in his hand, in which a white flower was planted, and three flowers bloomed and grew together. "If there is a poison within a radius of three feet, its petals will turn black, and the more toxic it is, the more the petals will change color, and the darker the color. If it's poisonous powder, you only need to dissolve it in water and water it, and the situation will be the same as before~"
"Oh oh oh, it's amazing!" Yang Jiu applauded, very supportive.
[Very good, you have successfully caught my attention~] Xiaobai confessed to Huahua.
Others were baffled by Yang Jiu, but Aaron turned his head and smiled at Yang Jiu with eight big white teeth.
"Hmph, a small country is a small country, either send some broken stones or broken flowers!" At this moment, someone let out a sneer, which instantly made the atmosphere of the scene super embarrassing. It will not be surprising when everyone has confirmed who said this. Or many people still have to say that if this is the case, it should have come a long time ago.
This dissonant sound is none other than Helian Tieqi.
Even though Helian Tieqi can barely be called an alliance with An Ling now, the arrogance in the bones of the Yan people makes him believe that An Ling is just a temporary help for himself. In his opinion, An Ling should be intimidated by his own strength, willingly for himself to drive, and then be swallowed by himself. Although he now has to maintain a semblance of peace and respect, in his heart, he has never recognized any country, no one except the fierce Yan Zhi!
He felt that some beating at the right time was still necessary, to show his toughness, otherwise these guys would step on his head!
And so there was the death he had just done.
The first to be provoked by Helian Tieqi's words was Aaron. He loved to play with poison, and the holy realm of his heart was defiled! The treasures of their own country are said to be broken flowers! He can't bear this cliff!
A certain dog exploded in an instant! Bared teeth and howled: "What do you say! You apologize to me! ”
"Hmph, apologize, dare to ask Prince Ben to apologize, joke! Say you're breaking flowers or lifting you! ”
An Lingye frowned, and was about to speak out to stop the situation from getting worse, but he didn't expect someone to move faster than him!
"Aaron!" Yang Jiu burst into a shout, Huo Ran got up and put his toes on the table a little, and shot towards the place where Aaron was, waving his long sleeves in front of Aaron, and at the same time encircling the young man's waist with one hand to stop Aaron from going berserk.
Most people still didn't understand what was going on, they were only surprised at how King You suddenly appeared, and then they were surprised that the rumor that King You's excellent light skills turned out to be true......
Aaron was stopped, and turned his face to stare at Yang Jiu, his face still unsubdued hideous. But then after realizing what he did and who stopped him, he immediately became angry, and by the way, he was a little aggrieved.
Yang Jiu moved his arm, his sleeves unfolded, and he stretched out his hand to catch a few needles as thin as cow's hair that slipped from his sleeves, and stuffed them into Aaron's hand without a trace.
Aaron knew that his small movements had been discovered, so he lowered his head and said angrily, "I'm sorry, ...... son"
"Call me Brother Nine!" Yang Jiu hurriedly interrupted. I'll go, I want this kid to shout "Brother Zixian", it is estimated that Yan Cang's goods will have to be compared with my brother!
Aaron is not stupid, he didn't notice that he almost missed his mouth when he was in mood swings, and he was shocked when he was reminded by Yang Jiu, and his expression suddenly became even more pitiful...... Well, it's the kind of cute way when a dog makes a mistake.
Yang Jiu withdrew the hand around Aaron's waist, rewarded the young man with a burst of chestnuts, and sighed helplessly: "I know that what 'political consciousness' is your mother's credit~ Okay, I'll hand it over to my brother next, you go down first." "Rubbed Aaron's short shaggy hair and smoothed it.
Aaron blinked his watery cat eyes, and after confirming Yang Jiu's posture of protecting a calf, he instantly smiled happily, and returned to his seat with a fart, dangling around, blinking at Yang Jiu.
After sending Aaron away, Yang Jiu and Helian Tieqi looked at each other.
The eldest prince of Yanzhi has a noble status, and although his seat is lower than that of Emperor Zhao and the Queen Mother, it is still two steps higher than Yang Jiu. However, Yang Jiu looked at it from a distance, and only needed to raise his head slightly, but Yang Jiu raised his head and squinted his eyes, giving people the feeling of looking down on Helian Tieqi!
"Heh, since the eldest prince looks down on the gift from my Anling friend, I don't know what treasure the eldest prince can come up with, and how big a deal he has?"
"Hmph, of course it's not comparable to this!"
"Oh, yes, it seems that the eldest prince is very confident, but it's a pity that this king is lonely and unheard of, and he really can't think of any special ability of Yanzhi that can afford the word baby, unless he ......"
Listening to Yang Jiu Chiguoguo's ridicule, Helian Tieqi's face darkened instantly, but he was still a little appetized by Yang Jiu's second half of the sentence, and couldn't help but continue: "Unless what?" ”
"Unless—" Yang Jiu stretched out a finger, "The eldest prince wants to send us half of the country." ”
As soon as the words came out, all four were shocked!
Is King You, crazy?! Dare to say such a thing!
An Lingye's eyes were deep. An Ruxue urgently shouted: "You'er! ”
"Bold! What are you to covet my Yan Zhi! Helian Tieqi shot the case, his eyes were cracked, and his murderous aura was overflowing!
For a moment, the tension was raised.
"Huh?!" Yang Jiu dragged out a long turn, and it seemed very unbelievable, "What, no, the loss king still only said half of it considering the actual situation of the eldest prince~" The implication is that Helian Tieqi and Helian Duyan fought against each other and failed to grasp full power!
Crazy crazy, this Youwang is crazy! Such a madman is not as good as the waste prince before!
"Look for death!" Helian Tieqi smashed the table in front of him with a single palm, crackling and the sound of dishes shattering, and the food scattered to the ground. And he stepped forward, his muscles stretched, and he rushed towards Yang Jiu at the bottom of the stairs!
"Prince Tieqi!" An Lingye warned that making trouble at the birthday banquet of the queen mother of his country would damage the prestige of the country!
An Ruxue also immediately gave an order to the Imperial Forest Army on both sides: "Stop Prince Tieqi!" ”
Suddenly, five long knives were placed in front of Helian Tieqi. He naturally didn't dare to defend it with his bare hands, so he looked at An Ruxue angrily and asked with a roar: "What does Empress Dowager An mean by this?" Don't you plan to give this prince an explanation for your lord's insult to our country? ”
"The eldest prince can rest assured, the mourning family has its own decision, and it will give you a fair return." An Ruxue made a promise, then turned her head to look at Yang Jiu, her eyes were full of warnings, "You'er, follow ...... quickly"
Yang Jiu didn't pay attention to An Ruxue, and even interrupted An Ruxue's words, and continued to mock Helian Tieqi who was glaring at him: "Huh? Prince, what's wrong with you? Why are you angry? Is there something wrong with what this king said? Didn't you say that the gift was precious, then obviously, what else could be more valuable than the territory of a country? If the eldest prince disagrees, then do you want to admit that the gift is low, or do you want to deny that the land is precious? ”
"You!"
"Hey, it seems that the eldest prince is going to give at least not the country, although he is a little disappointed, but this king is more curious about the eldest prince's next gift~" Yang Jiuguan'er smiled friendly, just like the perpetrator who spoke amazingly and was full of sarcastic skills just now was not him!
As he spoke, Yang Jiu was about to turn around and leave.
"Stop! I insulted Yan Zhi and can't think about it! ”
"Which sentence of this king is insulting? Trouble you have thought before you speak for a prince, even if you spew blood, you have to pay attention to evidence, how can I say that I am also a prince, not a flower on the street who can crush one with a wave of his hand. Insult? If you, a prince of other people, shouted at the birthday banquet of my Empress Dowager Anling, and insulted my friends in Anling, are you in line with the etiquette law? Helian Tieqi, I want this king to give you an explanation, right? Don't say that my Anling royal family has no room for people, as long as you can answer the question just now, this king will give you an explanation! ”
Whether to admit that the gift is low, or to deny that the land is precious, if you choose one or the other, there is no solution to this question.
Every word is fine, step by step! So awe-inspiring! How domineering!
When everyone was still in the shock that Yang Jiu brought to them for a long time, Yang Jiu had already strode back to his seat, his face was as steady as Mount Tai.
"Wuxiu Fang knows, the prince still has such good eloquence~" Yun Wuxiu still had a calm and comfortable attitude, and he didn't seem surprised by Yang Jiu's strong performance. When Yang Jiu sat down, he pushed a cup of freshly brewed tea to Yang Jiu's hand.
Yang Jiu picked up the teacup and drank it all in one gulp. In fact, he is not thirsty at all, but he just uses this action to calm the little excitement in his heart - it turns out that this is the pleasure of being a troll! (っ°v°)っ
The evil hooked his lips, and Yang Jiu responded to Yun Wuxiu, saying: "On the self-cultivation of a troll." ”
Yun Wuxiu: ...... Well?
(In the previous chapter, I forgot that there was a concubine and a prince when I was arranging seats, and it has been changed, sorry, sorry~~ Recently, there has been a serious lack of sleep, and Ah Qi is trying to adjust his schedule, so the update time has been changed to the afternoon...... Hmm, it's still the trial stage ~ take a look first ~) (to be continued.) )
