Yuan Minzhi understood the relationship between Qian Wei and his daughter, and did not ask more, but only told her to cover her identity tightly, not to be used by people with ill intentions, so she went to the reception banquet with confidence.

The people who prepared the banquet knew that King Jing preferred beautiful things, and deliberately relaxed the requirements for entering the banquet, and those who had the heart to cling to each other brought their daughters with their families, and this banquet also invisibly became a place for various girls to compete for beauty.

Although Yuan Minzhi is an official residence, there is no power behind him to rely on, and he is deliberately suppressed by the upper peak, so he can only accompany the last seat in this banquet.

He seemed to have long been accustomed to it, and did not show indignation.

At this time, King Jing and Song Qingquan had not yet arrived, and most of the officials who came in advance were officials.

Just like the people sitting above him, they are all county orders of Jing County and neighboring counties, and their grades are even lower than him, but they each have unshakable backers.

In addition, there are some wealthy families in Jing County, such as Chen, Wei, and Yun, who also have people from each other, who obviously have no official and no quality, but they are higher than those officials in the seat.

And a person like Yuan Minzhi, who has great achievements in war but is weak, is often isolated in such a banquet, and even becomes the object of ridicule.

"Isn't this Lord Lieutenant...... How can you come to the banquet alone, your family? Someone came to look left and right, and when he saw that it was really him, he sneered: "Don't you don't take the prince in your eyes?" ”

Won Minzhi glanced at him and ignored him.

But someone on the side answered: "Who doesn't know that Yuan Duwei was born in a farmer's household, and the mud on his legs has not been washed, where can I find a family member who can get on the table?" ”

When Yuan Minzhi joined the army, he used the favor of the Shen family, and his origin in the military register has been changed, so others only know that Yuan Minzhi was born in a farmer, but they don't know that he is from Gyeonggi.

However, because the Shen family had already lost power, although that person helped him in the past, he didn't give much care to the outside world, and he was bullied in the army, so he didn't know about it.

Yuan Minzhi is not the kind of person who welcomes him, and since then, he has also consciously cut off contact with that side.

"I heard that they don't bathe for months, and they eat some multigrain and wild vegetables on weekdays, where have you ever seen such good things? Isn't it polluting the eyes of the prince to bring here? ”

A crowd laughed.

Yuan Minzhi could tolerate them ridiculing him, but he couldn't bear them scolding his family, and his hands were clenched into fists.

Just as he was about to refute, he saw a breezy and moon-like figure coming in from outside the door, exuding an air of alienation all over his body, and he coldly skimmed over the person who had just laughed at him.

"Under the command of the prince, it turned out that there were all such people with broken mouths......"

King Jing, who came in one step behind him, felt a toothache.

Now he was only one step away from that supreme position, but the more he climbed, the stronger his awe of Yunmeng Mountain became.

Others only thought that he was valued by Yunmeng Mountain, but only he knew that he had not even seen the face of the person in charge of Yunmeng Mountain.

If he wants to really get on Yunmeng Mountain, he has to go through Song Qingquan.

Song Qingquan was unhappy at this time, where did he dare to slack off?

"Throw them all to the king."

was angry, and saw Song Qingquan looking at Yuan Minzhi: "The token I gave was not for you to press the bottom of the box." ”

This is to blame for not taking out the token in advance, so that he will encounter this kind of scene that makes him not feel happy as soon as he enters the door.

Song Qingquan entered the table after saying this, and King Jing looked at his back, but he didn't follow immediately.

"You are ......" He felt that the person in front of him was somewhat familiar, but for a moment he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

If it was usual, he didn't have the leisure to ask about the forgotten person, but the person in front of him obviously had something to do with Song Qingquan, which made King Jing see some hope.

"The ...... of the Humble Wonmin"

"It turned out to be you, but this king has an impression."

Yuan Minzhi fought in Tongzhou, beheaded the head of the Tongzhou guard, and became famous in the first battle.

It's just that there are too many generals around him, and it didn't take long to forget about Yuan Minzhi, see you at this time, and after he reminded him, he thought again: "Why did you come here?" ”

"The humble post has been transferred to Jingcheng and appointed to the position of Commander of Zhichong."

Yuan Minzhi was a fierce general, and he was suitable for fighting abroad, but he was transferred to the rear for no reason, which made King Jing suspicious.

"This king remembers the battle of Tongzhou, you are under Li Yan, why did you suddenly transfer here?"

Yuan Minzhi tugged at the corners of his mouth: "The humble position was originally only a five-grade official position, but General Meng Li raised his love and promoted the humble position." ”

Such a transfer obviously did not have King Jing's approval, which firmly planted a thorn in King Jing's heart.

He stretched out his hand and beckoned the attendants on the side: "Move the position of Yuan Duwei, and this king wants to catch up with Yuan Duwei." ”

Originally, there was only one side of the relationship, where is the old appearance?

Yuan Minzhi knew that King Jing had this arrangement, all for the sake of Song Qingquan's feelings, and perhaps it was also to test his relationship with Song Qingquan.

I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, Yuan Minzhi's position was placed diagonally opposite Song Qingquan.

After sitting down, Song Qingquan nodded to him quite face-saving.

This attitude made King Jing a little pantothenic in his heart, thinking that he had been currying favor with Song Qingquan for so long, when had he ever had such a gentle attitude?

"Mr. Qingquan and Yuan Duwei are old acquaintances?"

Yuan Minzhi didn't know how to answer this question, right, he had never said a word to Song Qingquan before, but if not, he didn't know how to explain the matter of the token.

"There is some connection." The ambiguity of Song Qingquan's words can be understood by King Jing, which means that it does have the meaning of the matter.

At this moment, he was even more enthusiastic about Yuan Minzhi, and the people below saw the wind and steered, and they were also extremely stammered with him.

At this banquet, Chen Minzhong also brought Webster, accompanied by the most charming girl in the Chen family.

Only King Jing didn't know if he was angry with the Chen family because of the sweat and blood, and he was not enthusiastic about them.

Chen Minzhong was sitting on pins and needles, only Wei Shi, looking at Yuan Minzhi thoughtfully.

The girl surnamed Yuan she saw before, although she did not deliberately investigate, but intentionally or unintentionally, she also paid some attention to that place, Yuan Minzhi was a fourth-grade official after all, although not everyone in Jingcheng knew him, but he was by no means an unknown person.

He frequently went in and out of that courtyard, and Webster had already heard about the people under him.

also guessed that the family should be Yuan Minzhi's family.

But at this time, she actually saw the people of Yunmeng Mountain showing favor to Yuan Minzhi at the banquet, which showed that the Yuan family was related to Yunmeng Mountain.

If her original guess was right, the force behind that girl was very likely to be Yunmengshan.

Her intuition told her that there was more than just a relationship between that person and Yunmeng Mountain, and there might be a deeper connection.
