Xu Huaiqing was obviously also worried about this problem, this meal was by no means so delicious. Bai Jiujiu changed into clothes that he was more comfortable with, and followed Xu Huaiqing to the Wei Palace.

The carriage stopped at the Xu Mansion, the imaginary traffic did not appear, and it was very quiet in front of the Wei Wang's Mansion, even if there were a few carriages, they were far away in another aisle. The two of them looked at each other, both a little puzzled. Didn't they set up a banquet to invite people, could it be that they came early, and none of the guests saw it.

I entered the house with a stomach full of questions. King Wei was already waiting inside, and he seemed to be very happy to see the two of them come in, and without waiting for Xu Huaiqing to salute, he held his hand and said with a smile, "This is Mrs. Xu, it is rumored that Zhong Lingyuxiu is beautiful in the outside world, and this is true." ”

"You've won a prize." Bai Jiujiu pursed her lips lightly and smiled slightly.

"Lord Wang, the East Pavilion has been placed, is it now in the past or?" Someone will report it.

King Wei waved his hand, "Now it's over." ”

When I arrived at the East Pavilion, I found that there were only two of them as guests today. Bai Jiujiu's brain was spinning quickly, and seeing that King Wei had a courteous and affectionate attitude towards Xu Huaiqing, he had already guessed a few points in his heart to see what King Wei planned to do. After three rounds of wine and five flavors, King Wei really mentioned it.

"Lord Xu's talent is so good, it's really admirable, this expedition, thanks to Lord Xu, otherwise this king might not have won so beautiful."

Bai Jiujiu noticed that the self-proclaimed name of King Wei had become me.

Xu Huaiqing humbly arched his hand, "The prince has won the award, this counterinsurgency is not the credit of Xu, but the prince's wisdom and wisdom, and it has nothing to do with the lower officials." ”

"Lord Xu doesn't have to be modest, we all know what the truth is." King Wei shook his glass, and the transparent liquor danced in the glass.

Xu Huaiqing was not easy to accept this, and King Wei followed closely and said, "After this battle, most people will think that you are my King Wei's person, is Lord Xu dissatisfied?" ”

came, Bai Jiujiu suddenly cheered up, none of these people in the center of political power are vegetarians, don't look at King Wei looking gentle, he is still strong and shrewd in his bones.

But compared to most people, that's good. After all, people like the prince are very disgusting, and they have to be on guard all the time.

Xu Huaiqing took a sip of wine calmly, "Xiaguan was born poor, and his greatest wish is to do things for the people of the world, as for other things, Xiaguan doesn't want to care." ”

King Wei stroked his palms and laughed, "Lord Xu is really high-spirited, and having a good official like you is a blessing for my dynasty!" ”

Then his voice changed, "It's just that Lord Xu wants to show his ambitions, and some people are afraid that they will obstruct it, and you know, the prince has always regarded me as an enemy for a long time, but I'm afraid that even you hate it now." ”

Xu Huaiqing didn't say anything for a long time, what did he want him to say, say bad things about the prince? Forget it, when the prince heard it, he was not in danger of being headed. But if you don't say it, what about King Wei's side?

In fact, he also knew that King Wei was waiting for him to have an attitude. King Wei was very smart, and after saying this, he excused himself to change his clothes and went out.

At present, in addition to the two subordinates waiting outside the door in the East Pavilion, there are only two people, Bai Jiujiu and Xu Huaiqing.

"Huaiqing, what are you going to do?"

Xu Huaiqing is rarely a little entangled, this matter is very serious, if it is not handled well, it may endanger his family. He actually just wanted to be a pure minister, but with the display of his talent, his position seemed to be a little untenable. He didn't want to choose, and someone forced him to choose.

"King Wei has both talent and ability, and he is even more thirsty for talent, but he ......" Xu Huaiqing's eyebrows furrowed, hesitating.

Bai Jiujiu analyzed with him, "Like you said, King Wei is very smart and a magnanimous superior, if he can...... I haven't been in contact with that, but I've heard that he has a very rigid personality. On the contrary, if you want to insist on not standing in line, with the suspicious character of the prince, you will definitely not believe it, and will only classify you as the faction of King Wei. ”

Xu Huaiqing was surprised that Bai Jiujiu could see it so clearly. But it is precisely because he knows the prince's personality that he has some scruples.

The king of Wei changed his clothes, but did not go back immediately, but teased the birds under the eaves of the porch.

"Lord Wang, will Lord Xu agree?"

Wei Wang. The voice was cold, "I don't force him, no matter what his choice is, I will protect him." ”

The subordinate said angrily, "The prince treats Lord Xu so well, but he is still hesitating, he really doesn't know what to do." ”

King Wei suddenly looked at his subordinates, his eyes were cold, "This king has already said, how to choose is his business, I don't want to interfere." ”

"But what if he defects to the prince, the prince also appreciates Lord Xu."

"No, don't worry." King Wei smiled confidently.

Even if Xu Huaiqing doesn't choose him, he will never choose the prince, and he still has this confidence. When his subordinates were thoughtful, King Wei straightened his clothes and entered the East Pavilion.

"I'm sorry, I'm slacking."

Xu Huaiqing dared to blame him for being sloppy, and even said that it was okay. King Wei went straight to the topic, "Lord Xu, I won't go around the bend, what do you think of this king?" ”

"The prince is very strategic, and he treats people generously, and the lower officials are extremely admired and admired." Xu Huaiqing arched his hand sincerely.

"And what if I say I want you to support me?"

The two had been discussing in the East Pavilion for a long time just now, and Xu Huaiqing was quite calm at this time, "Xia Guan and the prince have killed the enemy on the battlefield side by side, and they have great respect for the character of the prince who is so brave and considerate of the people, and I will ask the prince for more advice in the future." ”

These words mean that he is on the side of King Wei. King Wei was overjoyed in his heart and stood up excitedly, "Great, Lord Xu, you and I will work together to benefit the people!" ”

The two raised their glasses, touched them lightly, and then drank them all.

"I want to give Madame a drink." King Wei took the initiative to raise his wine glass towards Bai Jiujiu.

He could see that Xu Huaiqing attached great importance to Bai Jiujiu, and this woman was different from ordinary women, and her vision was extremely unique, otherwise she would not have done such a big business with Han Zhaoyin.

Bai Jiujiu smiled slightly, and also raised his wine glass.

This matter has been decided, but for the sake of insurance, it will not be announced to the public for the time being. Outside, the two of them were still detached and polite, making it unpredictable to understand Xu Huaiqing's thoughts.

The prince's side has always had a faction of eyeliner following them, and King Wei and Xu Huaiqing knew about it. If he knew that Xu Huaiqing had already stood in line, he would definitely instigate Yushi and impeach him in the court.

King Wei counted, but Xu Huaiqing's foundation is still shallow, and he does not have a particularly strong backer, once he is put on the name of forming a party for personal gain, in front of the emperor, his career will be over.
