Before the time came, the sun was still strong, and the steward came to invite him to the feast.

Xiang Shi chartered the entire third floor of the Five Lakes Hotel today to have a banquet for Chen Xu and the county guard, and I heard that the county lieutenant, the sheriff, and the local gentry and nobles in Wuzhong came to the banquet.

After Chen Xu cleaned up briefly, he took Xiao He, Cao Shen, Liu Bang, and Zhou Bo, the four four King Kongs who came from Pei County, and Jiang Chuxing naturally went to the banquet with him, and when Chen Xu came to the restaurant, he found that there were many four-wheeled luxury carriages outside the door, and the people who came down were all dressed in exquisite clothes and not weak, but Chen Xu didn't know any of them, and Jiang Chuxing didn't know either, after all, he had only been to Wuzhong once.

Xiang Bo took Xiang Yu and a few servants to stand in front of the restaurant to greet the guests who came to the banquet, and the four businessmen who opened the Wuhu Garden that I saw last night also stood next to them to greet them, plus Yingying Yanyan A large group of hotel maids in uniform, the scene looked very lively, if there was a red carpet on the ground, it was estimated that it would be more luxurious and magnificent.

Seeing Chen Xu coming over with someone, the four businessmen hurriedly greeted him and saluted respectfully, looking very excited, "I'll wait to welcome Gongzi Xu!" ”

"Don't be polite, you don't have to worry about me, go upstairs!" Chen Xu arched his hand with a smile on his face.

"Xu Gongzi can come to the banquet, Xiang is honored, Xu Gongzi upstairs, please~" Xiang Bo also left the guests who came to greet him, although his tone was respectful, but his expression was still a little arrogant.

"Haha, it's easy to say, Xu thanked Xiang for his hospitality in advance!" Chen Xu smiled exaggeratedly, and his eyes didn't seem to take Xiang Bo in his eyes at all.

Watching Chen Xu and the others swagger into the lobby of the restaurant, accompanied by a maid and a businessman, Xiang Yu's face became quite disdainful, and he even spat on the open space.

"Don't be rude!" Xiang Bo couldn't help but whisper to remind himself of this little overlord nephew.

Today's banquet, in the final analysis, was provoked by Xiang Yu.

If it weren't for Xiang Yu's drunken and flirtatious niece of Lord County, Xiang wouldn't have had to hold this apologizing banquet so aggressively.

Although the Xiang clan is powerful and deep-rooted in Jiangdong, Jiang Heng can not be taken seriously, but if Jiang Heng is angered, as long as a piece of paper is delivered to Xianyang, according to the emperor's vigilance against the nobles of the former six countries, the soldiers in Huiji County can be crushed into meat sauce in an instant, and even all the gentry and officials who have dealings with the Xiang clan will be bloodied.

Three years ago, the change in Wancheng was still imminent, and Chu Shang Ran attacked Xingyuan at night, which directly led to the dismissal of dozens of officials in Nanyang County and their exile to the border wilderness, and later it was said that all of them were secretly killed by Zhao Gao and thrown their bodies into the wilderness, and almost all the bureaucrats of all sizes in Nanyang County were replaced.

If it was the former county guard Yin Tong was still in Wuzhong, the Xiang family would inevitably not be able to bird Chen Xu, but today, under the promotion of Chen Xu, the imperial court has implemented an official rotation system, Yin Tong was transferred to Yuyang County to serve as Taishou, the new Jiang Heng is an authentic Xianyang wealthy family, the four brothers of the Jiang family, all of them are members of the imperial court, and the new Yinshan Marquis Jiang Hu is a hot figure, both the emperor's favor, and I heard that he has a good relationship with the Qinghe Marquis, if it angers the Jiang family, it will inevitably attract the anger of the emperor and the Qinghe Marquis, Xiang's carrying it is really like a mantis arm as a car, and the end must be very miserable.

Therefore, under this pattern, the Xiang family had to bow his head, and he had to keep a low profile, honestly endure this tone to apologize and admit his mistake to Chen Xu, a little-known aristocratic son from Xianyang, and at the same time apologize to Jiang Heng.

And the reason for all this is actually the result of Chen Xu's single-handedly planning.

Recommending Jiang Heng to be transferred to the Huiji County Guard destroyed the close relationship between the Xiang family and the former Huiji County Shou Yin Tong, coupled with Chen Xu's special advice, Jiang Heng must be vigilant against Xiang's every move everywhere, and will never be in the same boat as Xiang, so Xiang lost the support of the county guard, and could only act slightly low-key.

These Xiang clans naturally didn't know, they didn't know that Chen Xu, an impostor, had been eyeing them since he crossed over, and then he continued to arrange them to monitor and clamp them.

So far, this arrangement has seen results, but Xiang is still in the dark.

Chen Xu and the others went up to the third floor accompanied by the businessman Qu Hai, and at this time there were already many people sitting in the seven or eight private rooms, including merchants in gorgeous clothes, scribes with wide sleeves and robes, and even warlocks from the Fang family wearing burlap clothes and buns, most of them were over thirty years old, and they gathered in groups of three or five to talk about it, and the center of the discussion was naturally the conflict between the little overlord of the Xiang family and Xu Gongzi from Xianyang last night.

"Master Hou, please inside!"

Under the leadership of Qu Hai and the maid, Chen Xu and the others entered the largest private room where they had dinner last night, and not long after they sat down, someone came to pay a visit in the next few private rooms.

The nobles from Xianyang, as a local celebrity, naturally still want to see it, especially this Xu Gongzi is still the nephew of the county guard, no matter what conflicts he has with the Xiang family, it is a favor to know each other and be familiar with each other, and maybe they will be able to get a relationship in the future.

No matter how strong the Xiang family is in Wuzhong, it still can't resist the county guard, not to mention that this Xu Gongzi not only has his own family power behind him, once he marries the daughter of the Jiang family, the power of the two clans is even more huge, and it is far from what the Xiang family can compete with in Jiangdong.

Of course, most of the people who are good friends with the Xiang family still won't come to visit in advance, the so-called strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, no matter how strong Xu Gongzi is, after all, he will not live in Wuzhong for a long time, and after a few days of leaving, the Xiang family is still in the local area, as long as it does not anger the two chief officials of the county guard and the county lieutenant, the locals still regard it as a tiger.

Therefore, celebrities from all walks of life who came to the banquet formed two distinct factions.

For the people who came to visit, Chen Xu showed very humility and enthusiasm, under the introduction of Qu Hai, it was a very friendly exchange and conversation, and warmly invited these people to go to Xianyang to play, and then they would inevitably have an east banquet reception in Qinghe Garden, so the people who came to talk were more happy and enthusiastic, and soon more than ten celebrities from Wuzhong gathered in the private room.

"The county keeper has arrived~"

With a long shout from the bottom of the restaurant, the people in the private room all looked down, and sure enough, they saw a luxurious four-bridle carriage and a delicate and small single-bridle carriage driving into the gate of Wuhu Park under the escort of hundreds of soldiers, and Xiang Liang, who was standing at the door, also hurried up to greet him.

The carriage stopped in the garden, Jiang Heng got down from the carriage wearing a robe and a jade crown, and on the carriage behind, Jiang Chuyue was wearing a light blue long skirt, and a short sword hanging from her waist followed indifferently, and at the same time couldn't help but look up at the third floor.

At this time, the sun was setting, and under the bright and brilliant sun, the young man standing in the middle of the window on the third floor like a star holding the moon showed a faint smile on his face and nodded slightly to her.

Jiang Chuyue lowered her head with a pounding heart in an instant, and she didn't hear Xiang Liang and the others at all, and followed Jiang Heng into the hotel step by step.

Jiang Heng arrived, and basically all the people who participated in the banquet this time arrived.

Xiang Liang, Xiang Bo, and Xiang Yu accompanied Jiang Heng to the third floor, and then came directly to the private room of Chen Xu and others, and more than a dozen celebrities in Wuzhong who were crowded in the room and Chen Xu and others were close to each other, and they also hurriedly saluted Jiang Heng and then said goodbye and went back to their private room.

After a moment of hustle and bustle, everyone sat down around the big round table.

Although there is no so-called main seat at the round table, Jiang Heng is still arranged to sit in the position due north, sitting in the north and facing south, which is the most noble direction.

Xiang Liang, Xiang Bo, and Xiang Yu sat on Jiang Heng's right hand.

Chen Xu, Jiang Chuxing, Jiang Chuyue and others sat on Jiang Heng's left, while Xiao He, Liu Bang and others sat casually.

Jiang Heng looked very embarrassed, and secretly looked at Chen Xu several times, but finally held back.

Chen Xu's identity cannot be revealed, so he is the biggest in the private room at the moment.

Soon there were maids and kitchen helpers rushing back and forth with a dazzling array of sumptuous dishes and wines, exquisite porcelain wine cups, neatly placed dishes and chopsticks napkins, and even the wine on the wine table today is not Wuzhong's specialty mulberry wine, but four bottles of Qinghe wine and a five-star special wine from Fan's Winery.

Xiang Bo and Xiang Liang personally opened the Qinghe wine, and poured the red Qinghe wine for everyone at the table, and then returned to their positions, and Xiang Liang picked up the wine glass.

"Lord County Shou, Master Xu, yesterday's incident was that the little nephew caused trouble after drinking, and the child was reckless and offended Sanniang, but he did not mean to offend, after going back yesterday, he had been heavily punished, and today he invited celebrities from all walks of life in Wuzhong to the banquet in the restaurant, just to let Ji'er make amends to Sanniang in person, and at the same time make amends with Lord County Shou and Xu Gongzi, and I hope that a few people will forgive, Ji'er, don't get up and raise a glass to apologize to Sanniang, when will you wait?"

"Yes, Second Uncle!" Xiang Yu whispered in a whisper and stood up, his burly body almost covered the sunset shining through the window, and the whole room suddenly dimmed.

Jiang Heng secretly glanced at Chen Xu, and found that Chen Xu's face was indifferent and expressionless, so he nodded slightly and said: "Since Xiang Nephew has no malicious intentions, the old man doesn't want to pursue it, but Xiang Nephew misbehaves on weekdays, and his reputation in Wuzhong I think a few people must have heard of it, and I hope that Xiang Nephew can be more restrained in the future, not to mention that molesting his fiancée in front of the old man and nephew is a big disrespect, if it makes trouble in Xianyang, I am afraid it will cause a lot of trouble, not that the old man is alarmist, but that the emperor parades to Huiji in front of him, if he breaks into trouble again, The county lieutenant and the police department will certainly not let it go as usual...... Yue'er, since Xiang Nephew has repented, don't be entangled, and give Xiang Nephew a cup to release his previous suspicions! ”

"Yes, uncle!" Jiang Chuyue stood up with her head down, holding the wine glass with both hands, and blessed Xiang Yu slightly: "Chu Yue accepts Xiang Gongzi's apology, please drink a full glass!" ”

Jiang Chuyue covered her sleeves and sat down with a small sip lightly, Xiang Yu raised her head and poured a full glass of wine into her mouth.

Xiang Liang poured Xiang Yu a full glass of wine again and pointed at Chen Xu and said: "I salute Xu Gongzi again, I hope Gongzi doesn't mind, the two are the same age, they are both young people with strong blood, and he can be closer in the future!" ”
