Wang Hanxin looked at his righteous brother Zhou Siyi on the side with a bitter face, and let out a long sigh.

Since the last crusade against the victorious class master of Weizhou Yingzhou, Wang Hanxin has had nothing else to do every day except for studying the swordsmanship of the Yangtao Sect with Zhou Siyi. There is no one he knows well in this Beijing division except for his old boss Xue Boren, the squire of the military department, and he himself has no intention of making friends with powerful people, so he shirks and ignores the invitations of some officials, so Wang Hanxin's mansion can be said to be cold and sparse.

Wang Hanxin doesn't care about this, he has been on the battlefield since he joined the army, and the commander has always taken good care of him, so he doesn't know anything about the officialdom, and he doesn't bother to learn it. But today Wang Hanxin encountered the worst situation since he entered Beijing, Her Majesty the Empress gave birth to a princess for Liu Yan, today is a hundred days, Emperor Liu Yan decided to celebrate in the Yuelou banquet, so that Wang Hanxin, who is the general of Anyuan, will of course attend this feast.

Thinking of having to face hundreds of officials and greeting each other, Wang Hanxin felt that his scalp was numb, so he dragged his brother-in-law Zhou Siyi with a dead face. Originally, Zhou Siyi's official and humble position could not participate in this banquet, but he couldn't stand Wang Hanxin's soft grinding and hard bubbles, so he could only follow.

"I'm not qualified to participate in this banquet, is it okay for you to pull me into the banquet like this?" Seeing that it was about to arrive, Zhou Siyi still felt that it was inappropriate.

"It's okay, the emperor doesn't miss you for this bite, second brother, if you don't go, I won't even have someone to talk to. Lord Xue is a third grade, the seat is too far away from me, I want to toast him, so I have to toast all the way over. In short, second brother, you don't have to worry. Little brother, I've caused enough trouble, this kind of thing is simply not worth mentioning. ”

While speaking, the two of them had already arrived at the Invitation Moon Tower. Sure enough, the guards standing at the door showed a suspicious expression towards Zhou Siyi.

Wang Hanxin's eyes widened and said, "This is my second brother Zhou Siyi!" We brothers are blessed and have shared hardships. If there is my seat, there is my second brother! ”

"Wang Anyuan, don't be embarrassed, we are acting on orders, and we also know Captain Zhou, but if we are like you, the order of this banquet will not be maintained." A guard laughed.

"! Who else would dare to do this except me, a Manchu civil and military force? If you don't let us in, I'll go home. ”

The guard waved his hand again and again and said, "Master, don't make trouble, the little one can't mess with you, please come in." ”

Wang Hanxin snorted, and took Zhou Siyi to stride up the Invitation Moon Tower.

"He is Wang Hanxin." One of the guards asked softly.

The other also replied softly, "I see." This is now a celebrity in front of His Majesty's eyes, and if you want to say that there is no such person in the world in this capital, you can't find such a person. Fortunately, he rarely goes out, otherwise our Chang'an City would not have to be turned upside down? ”

After entering the table, Wang Hanxin only exchanged a few words with the officials before and after, then took the wine to himself, and drank it with Zhou Siyi. Seeing this, it was difficult for everyone to come forward to talk, and no one pointed out that the banquet had not started yet, and no one asked why there was an extra lieutenant in his seat, everyone knew what kind of person Wang Hanxin was.

Soon after, the invited officials had arrived. At this time, I could only hear someone say loudly: "His Majesty the Emperor has arrived!" Her Majesty has arrived! ”

Everyone knelt on the ground to welcome the arrival of the emperor and empress. Liu Yan slowly walked into the arena with the queen in his arms. After taking a seat, Liu Yan spoke: "All the Qing family is flat. Today, a banquet will be held for the princess of Pingguo for 100 days, and the family does not have to be restrained, and everyone will have to disperse happily. ”

The ministers hurriedly kowtowed and thanked him, and the banquet began. Three rounds of drinking. The ministers began to toast each other, and laughter filled the Yuelou for a while.

At this time, Empress Hua glanced at the audience, and her eyes stopped on Wang Hanxin's table. Because only Wang Hanxin sat on the seat, there were two people.

"Your Majesty, who is that?" Empress Hua asked softly.

Liu Yan looked in the direction she was pointing. couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, he nodded and called the guards on the side to ask a few words softly. Only then did he turn back to the queen and said, "This person is Wang Hanxin, the general of Anyuan, and the one next to him is his brother-in-law, Captain Zhou Siyi." ”

"Captain? Isn't that the guest you're invited to? ”

"The queen doesn't need to be surprised, you must have heard of what this Wang Hanxin did, if he doesn't make something out of the ordinary, it won't be him."

"Your Majesty, please let Concubine Rong say more. The way of the monarch and the minister lies in the order of respect and humility, the king has the dignity of the king, and the minister has the courtesy, if the net is open to a person, then it will destroy this order, and the concubine thinks that His Majesty should not be so conniving at this kind of behavior. ”

Liu Yan nodded and said, "What the queen said is true. It's just that this Wang Hanxin is different, although he often does things unexpectedly and does not stick to the old etiquette method, but what he does is not completely unreasonable. Except for killing the Goryeo royal family out of personal vendettas, what he did was never for his personal interests, and during his time in the capital, he was also his wife and never took the initiative to cause trouble. It can be seen that this person is not ignorant of good and bad, and his ability is indeed not comparable to ordinary people, and I also want to make good use of this talent. ”

Empress Hua chuckled when she heard this, and said, "Your Majesty is right, but the concubine wants to see if this Wang Hanxin is worthy of such a warm treatment from Your Majesty." ”

Liu Yan was taken aback and said, "What does the queen want to do?" ”

"The concubine asked the emperor to move to accompany the concubine to toast the ministers, and it makes sense for the concubines to wait in front of them."

"Queen, you've had a whim again. Well, I'll cooperate with you. With that, Liu Yan stood up with the wine, pulled Queen Hua and began to toast the ministers

The ministers were all flattered when they saw this, only Wang Hanxin only cared about drinking with Zhou Siyi, and he was already six or seven points drunk, and he didn't notice that things had changed.

"This is Anyuan General Wang Hanxin." When Liu Yan's voice sounded in his ears, Wang Hanxin raised his head.

At this time, Wang Hanxin's eyes suddenly lit up, and it was Emperor Liu Yan and Empress Hua who appeared in front of him. Empress Hua's appearance was enough to make the men's hearts shake, and Wang Hanxin was stunned when he saw it, but not because of her beauty, but because she looked like her dead lover.
