Chapter 249: The Banquet

A group of people were talking, and suddenly King Wei, dressed in a dark robe, walked over with his hand, his handsome face was slightly gloomy, obviously not in a good mood. The crowd was immediately silenced and stood up to salute.

King Wei didn't mention what happened just now, but said gently, "This expedition has worked hard for you, this king has already prepared dinner in the kitchen, and will celebrate with you at that time." ”

When they heard this, they thanked each other in unison, and their eyes flashed with worship. Although they were jealous of Xu Huaiqing, but in fact, the prince did not snub them, King Wei knew people well, was generous, as long as he had the ability, he would never be buried by his side.

King Wei sat down on the stone bench, rubbed a jade white wine glass with his slender fingers, and said with a smile, "Each of you is an indispensable talent in my house, since this king left you, he naturally hopes that you can show what you have learned all your life, everyone has an irreplaceable place, I hope you remember."

After speaking, the wine was drunk, and everyone pondered these words, and they all blushed slightly, the prince heard what he said just now, and he was beating them in a different way. However, this method is not offensive, but it makes them even more ashamed.

When King Wei saw it, he took it, got up and said, "I won't bother you." ”

"The prince walks slowly."

After King Wei left, everyone looked at each other, they were all a little embarrassed, and one of the oldest said, "In the future, these words should be said less, this is also our prince's generosity, if you meet other masters, I don't know what will happen." ”

"Yes, yes, the old gentleman is right." Everyone echoed in unison.

King Wei left the gaze of those people, his expression returned to calm, he thought about the words he had just heard, and a trace of determination crossed his dark eyes.

"Wang Gui!"

The little servant hurriedly responded, "Lord Wang." ”

"Go to Xu's Mansion to send an invitation, and it will mean that there will be a banquet in my Mansion tomorrow, and I will specially invite Lord Xu and Mrs. Xu to play."

Wang Gui responded, but it was a little strange, didn't the prince just say that there would be a banquet tonight, how did it become tomorrow. King Wei didn't explain to him, and glanced at him lightly, "Don't go yet!" ”

Wang Gui got out of the way. King Wei stood under the eaves of the porch, squinting into the distance, his dark eyes surging with emotion, gradually calming down. He naturally knew Wang Gui's doubts, but Xu Huaiqing's status in his heart was much higher than that of ordinary people.

On this expedition, King Wei once again saw Xu Huaiqing's ability, this person, even if he was not on his side, he also appreciated it.

Xu Fu, Bai Jiujiu and Xu Huaiqing have been tired and crooked for a few days, and they have their own things to do, and they can't stay together all the time. However, when Xu Huaiqing returned from the victory, the emperor gave him a few days off, and the king of Wei also told him to rest well.

Bai Jiujiu was very happy, and dragged Xu Huaiqing with her when she went to the store, Xu Huaiqing was naturally happy to accompany her, and the two were really inseparable for a while.

In the end, even Old Man Xu couldn't stand it, so let Bai Jiujiu not keep pulling Xu Huaiqing around, he is now working in the Hanlin Academy.

Bai Jiujiu stuck out his tongue, but he didn't care in his heart. Xu Huaiqing pinched her cheek funny, but his tone was extremely indulgent, "It's okay, Dad, Your Majesty gave me a holiday, and I can't delay my business." ”

The Xu family had long been accustomed to Xu Huaiqing protecting Bai Jiujiu like this, and when they heard this, they only glanced at them lightly and didn't say more. Bai Jiujiu was very happy, and when he was eating, he sandwiched dishes for Xu Huaiqing several times, urging him to eat more.

The Wang family always said that Xu Huaiqing lost weight when he went out to fight, and kept piling big fish and meat into Xu Huaiqing's bowl, and the result was that Xu Huaiqing's bowl was piled high. He finished all his good-natured meals, and when he put down his chopsticks, he propped himself up on the table.

This action was only seen by Bai Jiujiu. Back in the room, Bai Jiujiu walked over to Xu Huaiqing and took the initiative to put his hand on his stomach.

Xu Huaiqing, "......"

"Jiujiu, what are you ......" Xu Huaiqing's face was a little red, mainly because the touch was too distinct, Bai Jiujiu's soft little white hand walked gently in the abdomen, and Xu Huaiqing felt that the senses of his whole body were concentrated in that square inch.

Bai Jiujiu glanced at him and said leisurely, "I don't know which fool it is, obviously I can't eat so much, and I have to eat it all." ”

Xu Huaiqing smiled slightly, his dark pupils glowing with a hint of blue, and looked at Bai Jiujiu intently, "Because it's a lady's clip, you have to eat it all." ”

Bai Jiujiu was secretly happy when she heard this, but she pretended to be arrogant and raised her chin, "I pinched it everywhere, and Mingming Niang also clipped a lot of it for you." ”

Xu Huaiqing touched her hair and didn't speak.

After Bai Jiujiu's gentle rubbing, Xu Huaiqing was sleepy, his back was still straight, but his eyes slowly wanted to close, and then he opened it quickly for some reason, looking at Bai Jiujiu in confusion.

It was the first time Bai Jiujiu saw him like this, his heart was soft, and he said softly, "Sleep, it's okay." ”

Xu Huaiqing fell asleep with peace of mind. Bai Jiujiu stared at his handsome side face for a long time, couldn't help but yawn, and simply went to bed and got into the quilt.

After sleeping until dusk, Xu Huaiqing woke up early, leaning on the head of the bed and flipping through the book, sensing the movement around him, he smiled, "Awake?" ”

Bai Jiujiu snorted, lifted the quilt and got up, and the sun was already setting in the west. Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and a grandmother heard the movement in the inner room and knocked on the door, "Is the young master awake, someone from the Wei Wangfu is here." ”

Bai Jiujiu and Xu Huaiqing glanced at each other, Wei Wangfu?

After the two cleaned up and came to the front hall, a small guy wearing the clothes of the Wei Wangfu stepped forward to ask for a thousand greetings, and then handed over an invitation, Xu Huaiqing opened it and looked at it, and bowed his head slightly, "I know, I am tired to reply to the prince, I will be there tomorrow."

Wang Gui saluted again and left.

Bai Jiujiu leaned his head over curiously, "What is it?" ”

Xu Huaiqing handed her the invitation, it turned out that King Wei set up a banquet to invite their husband and wife to the banquet together, please Xu Huaiqing is easy to understand, after all, the outside world says that King Wei is thirsty for talent, but what is the matter with Bai Jiujiu.

"This ...... You even invited me?! Bai Jiujiu's eyes widened in surprise.

"Well, please go together, it's okay, there are also female dependents in the palace, don't be afraid, I will protect you."

"I'm not afraid." Bai Jiujiu had a hard mouth, but she was actually a little nervous in her heart, this was the first time she had officially met King Wei, for fear of losing someone to Xu Huaiqing.

But she quickly calmed down and turned to worry about something else. Now the situation in the capital is complicated, we all know that the prince and the king of Wei are incompatible, Xu Huaiqing has done things for the emperor, and he has not yet stood in line, in the eyes of the outside world, at most, he is more intimate with the king of Wei, but if he goes to the banquet, they will really be tied together.
