When the man approached, Alia realized that the person who came was not Zhang Bao'er, but the Prime Minister of Kang Guo who came to the banquet.

"Your Royal Highness, I wish you a happy birthday!" Tice greeted Alia with a smile.

Although Alia was disappointed, she was not rude, and she smiled at Tichi, "Thank you, Prime Minister, for your blessings!" ”

Tiči looked at Alia strangely and asked casually, "Your Highness Princess, are you waiting for someone?" ”

Alia nodded, sighed and said, "I asked a friend to come to the banquet, but he hasn't arrived yet, I'm afraid he won't be able to come!" ”

As she spoke, Alia's disappointment was palpable.

"Is Her Royal Highness the Princess's friend a Tang Dynasty?" Titch asked suddenly.

"Yes!" Alia was pleasantly surprised: "Prime Minister, do you know him?" ”

"I don't know!" Tiqi shook his head: "When I first entered the gate, I saw several Tang people standing outside the gate, seemingly blocked by the guards, I guess they may be ......"

Before Tych could finish his sentence, Alia ran towards the palace gates.

Looking at Alia's eager back, Tichy had an elusive smile on her face.

In the side hall of the palace, there were not many people who came to Alia's birthday banquet. Qu Dibo, Su Jia, King of Kangguo, Queen Seji, Prime Minister Tiqi, and Sudden Dusk's younger brother Juqi. In addition, Qu Dibo also specially invited several young talents in the Great Food Army, his purpose is very simple, to take the opportunity to celebrate his daughter's birthday, and to make a wishful husband for his daughter.

The men sat cross-legged in front of their desks, chatting about something from time to time.

Qu Dibo looked around and asked strangely, "Huh?" Where did Alia go? ”

All of you here, look at me, I look at you, and no one knows where Alia has gone.

Tič seemed to remember something, and he hurriedly said to Qu Dibo: "Your Excellency, when I entered the palace just now, I happened to meet Her Royal Highness the Princess, and she hurried to the gate of the palace, saying that she was going to pick up some friend!" ”

"Friends? What friends? Qu Dibo was confused.

Titch shook his head, "I don't know!" ”

Suga's face changed when he heard Tichi's words, but he didn't say anything.

Qu Dibo was about to send someone to call Alia, but he saw Alia pulling a person into the main hall, this person was a man in white, judging by his appearance and dress, he should be from the Tang Dynasty. They were followed by two other men, one of whom was dressed as a Tang Dynasty and the other was clearly Sogdian, both of whom seemed to be the retinue of the man in white.

Tich, Sergey, and Suga were not surprised to see Zhang Bao'er, but the rest of the crowd didn't know what was going on, and looked strangely at the people that Alia had brought in.

No need to ask, the man in white brought in by Alia is Zhang Baoer.

The words that Tiche said to Alia outside the side hall were of course instructed by Zhang Bao'er, and if it weren't for this, Zhang Bao'er would definitely not be able to enter the Governor's Palace.

In front of everyone's eyes, Zhang Baoer was not restrained, but smiled and nodded to everyone.

At this moment, Alia glared at Suga without hesitation, and the anger was full of anger at him.

Suga was expressionless and pinned her face to the side, dodging Alia's murderous gaze.

Before Alia could have a seizure, she heard Qu Dibo ask, "Alia, is this your friend?" How come I haven't seen it? ”

Hearing her father's question, Alia withdrew her gaze from Su Jia's body with hatred, and introduced to Qu Dibo: "Father, his name is Zhang Cao, he came to Kangju City from Datang to do business, I met him twice, and I can talk about it, so I invited him to my birthday banquet!" ”

Alia brought outsiders into the governor's palace without her permission, which made Qu Dibo somewhat unhappy. But today is his daughter's birthday, and he has to give his daughter some face.

So, Qu Dibo nodded to Zhang Bao'er and said, "Since it's Alia's friend, then please take a seat!" ”

Zhang Bao'er nodded, didn't say a word, and led Uncle Hua and Amy Dan to sit cross-legged in front of an empty desk.

The banquet began, but it was very different from Zhang Baoer's imagination, not only did there be no singing and dancing, but even no wine. At the banquet, in addition to chatting, everyone bowed their heads and tasted various delicacies. This depressing atmosphere made Zhang Baoer feel very bored, so she peeked at everyone present

Tich, Serge, and Suga, he'd seen them all.

Qu Dibo is in his forties, burly and strong, and although he wears civilian clothes, he still exudes the majesty of a military general who has fought for many years. In particular, his eyes reveal wisdom and perseverance. Zhang Baoer couldn't help but admire in her heart, she deserved to be a famous general of the Dashi generation, and this momentum alone was not comparable to ordinary people. At the same time, Zhang Baoer secretly had a trace of vigilance in her heart, and she could see that Qu Dibo was a difficult opponent, and I was afraid that this trip to the Western Regions would be much more difficult and dangerous than she imagined.

He was only in his thirties, and his sad face made him look much older than his actual age. As the king, Tu Du surrendered to the invading cannibal, and obeyed the words of the big cannibal, so that the minister of Kang Guo and the people secretly scolded him in their hearts, but Zhang Baoer was very sympathetic to Tu Duan. The fight between countries is strength, you can't beat others, either you will lose the country, or you can only be slaughtered by others to survive. Unfortunately, Sudden Dusk chose the latter, and only he must know how he felt in his heart.

Look at the other young people who eat big, although they are all burly and strong, they seem to be very afraid of Qu Dibo, and everyone looks cautious, which makes Zhang Baoer look down on him.

However, a Sogdian boy sat next to the sudden faint, which aroused Zhang Bao'er's curiosity. He was about sixteen or seventeen years old, his eyes were bright, his skin was fair, his hair was curly, and he was quite energetic, neither as unruly as Su Jia, nor as submissive as those young people who ate big food, but he tasted the food in front of him with a calm demeanor, and his movements were extremely elegant, as if the people around him did not exist, which made Zhang Baoer can't help but be surprised.

Zhang Bao'er whispered to Amy Dan beside her, "Who is that young man next to King Sudden Faint?" ”

Emitan squinted at the young man, and replied in the same whisper, "He is the younger brother of the King of Sudden Faint, and his name is Güki. ”

Zhang Bao'er nodded, and was about to ask, but heard Alia shouting to herself: "Zhang Gongzi, aren't you happy to attend my birthday banquet?" ”

Alia and Zhang Bao'er were separated by two desks, and when she spoke, she leaned forward, obviously sensing Zhang Bao'er's boredom.

Zhang Bao'er said politely: "Your Royal Highness Princess, with all due respect. In our Datang, a birthday banquet like this not only has good wine, but also singing and dancing, only in this way will the guests have fun, but you have nothing here! ”
