Chapter 214: The Banquet

As Jiang parted, everyone began to sit down.

Jiang Boyo and Yang Ting sat down next to Qin and Chu's positions respectively, while Ye Bai sat down next to the main seat.

That position was originally Jiang Boyo's, after all, he was the pawn envoy and the master of Dacheng.

Under the city lord, it should be him, and Ye Bai's position was originally arranged on the side of Chu State.

But now it's different, because the current Ye Bai is a great grandmaster, and no one present dares not to give face to the great grandmaster, even Jiang Bieli,

The seventeen-year-old Grand Master is not something that anyone can look down on. Therefore, the position of the deputy seat was naturally given to Ye Bai.

Jiang Boyao didn't say much about this, he was too late to be happy, where would he care about this.

After taking their seats, a group of young women in green clothes stood on the red carpet in the main hall, and then the sound of silk and bamboo sounded, and they began to dance.

Generally, the orthodox banquet of the Great Zhou Dynasty will have four processes, the first is of course the welcome, and when the guests are seated, it is the declaration ceremony, which also represents the beginning of the banquet.

Then, it is the feast, which is the so-called serving, the formal banquet is generally held in a separate meal system, so the speed of serving will be a little slow, which is why the music and dance will be in front of the feast, otherwise, it will not make the guests wait for the food to be served.

Therefore, generally speaking, this kind of orthodox large-scale banquet is not something that ordinary local people can host.

This is also why in Liangcheng at the beginning, Li An and the others did not hold a banquet in their own city lord's mansion.

Then, as time passed little by little, the banquet was very lively, the sound of silk and bamboo was endless, and the vast majority of people in the banquet were staggered, and the words were happy, and they seemed to be happy.

But the discerning people can see that many of the people present are absent-minded and look very lively, but in fact, they are just perfunctory greetings with each other, and the singing and dancing are not fake, but among these people present, the vision of any of them is comparable to ordinary people, these things are not uncommon, they are not very interested in them for a long time!

Besides, now the vast majority of people are still immersed in Ye Bai's affairs, and they are not in the mood for the banquet for a long time.

is still here, just to give Jiang Beili the face of this great master.

Obviously, Jiang Bieli also saw this situation, but he only smiled and said nothing, and only after the singing and dancing stopped, did he speak: "Everyone, as the city lord of Yicheng, welcome to my Great Zhou!"

"I hope you can have a good time in my Yicheng these days, in Yicheng, you can find Ye Shaodian for anything, this time in Yicheng, he will be in charge of your affairs. ”

Even if Ye Bai is a great grandmaster, he has already taken over the position of this young envoy, and the things have already been arranged before, so Jiang Bieli will not make any changes.

Otherwise, wouldn't it leave people with an image of bullying the weak and fearing the hard.

Ye Bai glanced at Jiang Bieli, then raised his wine glass and said to the envoys of the two countries: "Yes, in Yicheng these days, I am in charge of your affairs, I hope you can live in peace during this time and not cause any conflicts!"

If Jiang Bieli's tone was still a little tactful, then Ye Bai's tone was a little unkind, Ye Bai was obviously telling everyone that he Ye Bai was responsible for their affairs in Yicheng, and asked them not to make trouble for Ye Bai!

Boom!

Xiang Tianyin put the cup in his hand on the table with a bang, and then said to Ye Bai: "Don't worry, with you, the new great master, opening your mouth, no one will cause you trouble!"

"Of course, what I said only represents our Chu people, what is their attitude towards the Qin State, I don't know!"

Generally speaking, Xiang Tianyin would not be involved in the affairs of these two countries, because she is a woman after all, and she has a certain degree of weakness in her congenital senses.

But now that Ye Bai has become a great grandmaster, Bai Zhan has also broken through to the great master at this time, and her Xiang Tianyin's strength has not yet broken through, Bai Zhan with that sword, now it is very likely that he is not the opponent of the other party, as for Ye Bai, not to mention, Xiang Tianyin knows that Ye Bai has a special physique, and now that he has become a great grandmaster, she has never thought about comparing with the other party in her heart.

You must know that when the few people first met, she felt that her strength should be the strongest, but now, she has become the weakest of the three, and there will naturally be some resentment in her heart.

So after Ye Bai spoke, Xiang Tianyin spoke, and seemed to have some intention of venting.

"When the Great Grandmaster speaks, we will naturally not disobey!"

Bai Zhan glanced at Xiang Tianyin, and then said to Ye Bai, "But Brother Ye is already a great grandmaster, do you still want to be this young envoy!"

"If Brother Ye is willing to enter my Qin State, I dare to guarantee that Brother Ye will at least be the third-grade official position of my Qin State!"

Bai Zhan's words shocked Jiang Bieli and Li Yan's eyes slightly, and then glanced at Ye Bai without a trace.

Jiang Bieli knew that if the Great Grandmaster joined the dynasty, he would at least be able to obtain the position of the fourth rank, just like him, he was now the fourth rank.

However, his fourth grade is different from the normal fourth grade, as the lord of Yicheng, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a prince of one side, in the capital, even many second-grade officials want his position.

And now that Bai Zhan is going to give Ye Bai a third-grade official position, he obviously wants to win over Ye Bai.

But it's a pity that this Bai Zhan didn't know that Ye Bai didn't have the heart to become an official in the court.

Thinking of this, the corners of Jiang Bieli's mouth couldn't help but show a hint of a smile.

It was precisely because Ye Bai had no intention of being such an official that he would tell Ye Bai about supporting the envoy group in the past few days.

Although he didn't have deep contact with Ye Bai, he knew Ye Bai a little, and in Jiang Bieli's heart, since Ye Bai had agreed to his previous conditions, he would naturally do it.

But even though he said that, Jiang Bieli also knew that there were already some cracks between himself and this Ye Bai.

Maybe when, this Ye Bai will find some trouble for himself.

As for Li Yan, he simply felt that Bai Zhan was a little unreasonable when he said this!

"Bai Gongzi, you're a little inappropriate!"

Sure enough, hearing Bai Zhan's words, Jiang Boyu immediately spoke, no matter what, Ye Bai can also be regarded as the grandson of their Jiang family, and now the Jiang family has begun to pave the way for Ye Bai, although the current Ye Bai's official position is indeed not worthy of Ye Bai, but after all, no one thought that Ye Bai would become a great grandmaster, otherwise, the people above would not only give Ye Bai a mere young pawn!

"Yes, Brother Bai, don't forget that this Ye Gongzi is the grandson of the Jiang family, with the strength of the Jiang family, if you want to give Ye Gongzi a third-grade official position, I'm afraid it's also a matter of being caught, Li Yan, you say yes!"

I don't know why, Meng Xuan also opened his mouth at this time, and Li Yan, who he asked, was stunned at first, and then saw Meng Xuan's eyes, he immediately reacted, nodded, and said: "Yes, if I become a great grandmaster, the ancestors will at least arrange an official above the fourth grade for me, after all, this is the unspoken rule in the mainland, isn't it!"

"Tsk, this Great Zhou really deserves to be the oldest founding country, even a martial artist like the Great Grandmaster can only obtain a seventh-grade official position within the Great Zhou!"

The words of these three people not only made Jiang Boyao's face change, but even Yang Ting and Jiang Bieli's faces sank slightly.

Although the words of the three of them sounded like they were complaining about Ye Bai, they were mocking the unknown acquaintances of the Great Zhou, and a character like Ye Bai could only get an official position of the seventh grade.

Of course, when they say this, they also have a bit of the meaning of provoking the relationship between Ye Bai and Da Zhou, or they are provoking the relationship between Ye Bai and the Jiang family.

Although now anyone with a discerning eye can see that this Ye Bai has just become a great grandmaster, the high-level of the Great Zhou may not know this news, and this official position has naturally not been promoted.

But now they are picking out this matter, just to make it difficult for this big week.

Bai Zhan said that he could give Ye Bai an official position of the third grade, and the Great Zhou, as Ye Bai's country of birth, would naturally have no problem if Ye Bai was treated the same as that of the Great Qin, but in the Great Zhou, generally speaking, the official position obtained by the Great Grandmaster was from the fourth grade.

Among the unspoken rules of the three major countries, the grand master enters the court as an official, that is, from the fourth grade, and if you want to rise again, it naturally depends on the merits of the great grandmaster.

And Ye Bai is so young, it can be said that it is normal to obtain a third-grade official position, but don't forget, what is the situation inside the current Great Zhou.

The three princes have taken over the heirs, the three-grade officials, and they are a great master, so they naturally want to grasp some real power.

And with real power, that is the object of the three princes to win over or suppress!

These three people, I'm afraid they have bad intentions!

Yang Ting and Jiang Boyo glanced at each other, they had already kept today's incident firmly in their hearts, and when they returned to Dadu, they would inform their respective families of today's incident.

You must know that no one knows whether the words of these three people today will leave any waves in Ye Bai's heart.

In case Ye Bai returns to Dadu and only obtains a fourth-grade official position, whether he will have the mood of not concealing this, no one can say for sure!

"Thank you, Brother Bai, but I, as a person, have no plans to become an official in the court, and the reason why I took this job is only because I was calculated by some people!"

"When I return to Dadu, I will naturally resign from the position of the young envoy!"

Ye Bai said without being salty, and then glanced at Jiang Bieli, causing Na Jiang Bieli to smile a little awkwardly and raise his glass to Ye Bai.
