Chapter Seventy-Two: Teach the Rules
After this group of people finally passed through the city gate, after entering the city, the group of people who followed followed complained even more, Rao is they went all the way south from the atrium to here, eating and drinking in the middle, many times they were in the wilderness casually, the road was almost across most of the western continent, a group of people have been to the big cities in the territory of the princes, and they have also been to the big tents where the barbarians gathered, even if they are well-informed, they have never seen such a poor, such a depressed city.
It is said that the city is all lifted, and if it is said to them that a group of barbarian doves occupy the magpie's nest, for them, it is more credible.
"After asking about the situation, you can go directly to the surrounding big cities, so why waste time here?"
"Shen Yan, the princess naturally has her own considerations, she doesn't need you to talk too much here, not to mention that you have come so far away, it doesn't hurt to delay a little longer, you must always be fully prepared. β
"The sage said that the king must be the king, but the sage has never said that he can't even have his own opinion. β
"We traveled all the way south, tens of thousands of miles, and we didn't have anything good to eat in the desert before, everyone has been tired for so long, even if we have to hurry next, we are not in a hurry at this time, and it is good to resupply here a little. β
"Yes, you see, even Mr. Lu is willing to stay here, this place is by no means as unbearable as you seem, so don't talk more. β
"Heh, look at the people here, everyone has a hideous face, an ugly appearance, and what's even more strange is that there are so many different races mixed in it, it's just unlikely!"
"Yes, yes, the third brother is right, even the guards who came to greet us were composed of alien races, and it seems that this country is nothing more than Erer. β
"Don't even say it, you see, it's somewhere. β
Under the leadership of Gu Xuan, the group walked through the bazaar, and after walking for a long time, they finally stopped at the main gate of the county government.
It's just that even if the county government has been specially repaired by Gu Xuan in these days, and even the drum at the door has been re-erected, it still looks a little down, after all, resources are limited, and money can't be spent just in this kind of faΓ§ade.
Gu Xuan's face was slightly red subconsciously, and he said in a somewhat helpless tone: "Our mansion is simple, if there is any inconsiderate hospitality, please forgive the fifth princess." β
If other people come, he will never be like this, no matter how broken it is, he will not feel embarrassed, but the family is from the atrium, like a wealthy relative from afar, if there is nothing valuable in his own house can be put out, can not entertain the other party properly, then it is normal to feel embarrassed.
Ji Yaoling didn't care about this, even if the walls in many places in front of her had been painted, and many pillars were dusty, but she didn't come here to enjoy it, so these things naturally didn't matter.
Seeing the embarrassment on the face of the young man next to her, she smiled very intimately and said: "I know that there is a young man in the south who wrote a sentence, the mountain is not high, there are immortals, the water is not deep, and the dragon is spiritual, with you and Mr. Lu here, is it not as good as those prosperous places outside?"
Gu Xuan was praised by her like this, and the other party still used the second brother's verses, and his mood improved at the moment, he smiled shyly, and said in a modest tone: "The fifth princess praised it falsely." β
As if to see the reason why his mood changed so quickly, Ji Yaoling then asked, "I don't know who this Gu Canggongzi is?"
At the mention of Gu Cang, Gu Xuan's face immediately showed a look of honor, and he said in a rather proud tone: "It is the second brother who is below, and he is also the prince of the East Palace of my Daliang!"
When Ji Yaoling heard this, he nodded lightly in agreement, and said with some emotion: "Such a talent, even in the atrium, there are few people who can compare with it, the descendants of the grandfather, it is really a generation of talents, and it is also a good thing that he left the atrium back then." β
Gu Qiguang, as an outsider, relied on the strength of several people to start his business, and then took the four states and a half to establish a country, such a great talent, it is indeed worthy of the four words of the lord of Zhongxing, no wonder the Great Zhou royal family of the year tried their best to send it out of the whirlpool of the atrium.
Mentioning these old things of the two families and one family, Gu Xuan could only sigh softly, stretched out his hand and invited, "Please come in." β
In this way, the group followed him to the banquet place temporarily converted into the county government, the dining table and cushions had already been laid, and the small square tables had already been put on the throat-moistening tea and some fine wine, and the kitchen was still preparing meals.
After all, they came too fast, and it was naturally too late to serve the food.
After everyone sat down in order, Gu Xuan also deliberately put the fifth princess on the main seat with himself.
If it is an ordinary visitor, even if it is a prominent status, unless it is his father, when His Majesty the Emperor is in person, it is impossible to let him sit on the throne together, which is also part of the hospitality gift, and he must not weaken his identity in vain.
People who don't respect themselves won't be respected by others.
But this fifth princess is really different, the two sides are indeed of the same root, going back to three generations, they are all the royal family of the Great Zhou, even the name of this sister-in-law is justified, not to mention that in this kind of place, there is no red tape at all.
Seeing that the other party would put their own princess in the main seat together, the other entourages looked at each other, secretly floating, and nodded with satisfaction.
Although they are some countrymen who don't know the so-called, but at least they still understand the rules, if they want the other party to give up the throne, it is impossible, although they are arrogant, but they are not completely rude and arrogant people.
After the two sides sat down, they were about to exchange pleasantries, when an inappropriate voice suddenly sounded in the seat below.
"Poof!"
A young man sitting in the guest seat on the right-hand side suddenly spit out all the wine he had just drunk in his mouth, and landed directly on the opposite side, wiping the corners of his mouth with his sleeve, while still muttering as if no one was around: "How can such a bad wine be so inferior?" Is it because of the countryside?"
As soon as these words came out, Gu Xuan's face on the main seat suddenly froze, let alone him, even the fifth princess Ji Yaoling, who was sitting next to him, frowned slightly, and immediately wanted to take the initiative to apologize on his behalf.
"Smack!"
Just when Ji Yaoling was about to open his mouth to ease the atmosphere, Jing Long on the left seat suddenly slammed the table, stood up abruptly, opened his eyes angrily, and unceremoniously pointed at the other party and scolded: "Enough! What kind of place should you be, and it is your turn to spread wild? You have been insulting my prince all the way, are I all deaf when I wait? If it weren't for Mr. Lu to stop me, I would have cut you into two parts, and now I dare to be so presumptuous when I come here!" Could it be that the people from this atrium don't even understand the basic etiquette?"
The man saw that the other party suddenly stood up and scolded him, but he didn't have the slightest intention of admitting his mistake, and he didn't even stand up, but sat on the cushion peacefully, and laughed lightly at the opposite side: "It's an inferior drink, I'm just telling the truth, not intentionally insulting, but if you insist on thinking so, I can't help it, isn't it hard to drink?"
As he spoke, he smiled and looked at the people around him.
The other party's arrogant attitude stimulated Jinglong even more angrily, he couldn't hold back any longer, and immediately shouted: "Enough! Since you said that this is a rural place, then let me, a countryman, teach you a good lesson for your parents, do you dare to fight?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes turned to them, and no one thought that before they could say a word, they were suddenly about to fight?
However, Gu Xuan, who was in the seat, did not say anything to stop Jinglong, but silently picked up the teacup and took a sip.
If they blindly show weakness, these people really think that they are still in the atrium, and they are easy to bully when they are on their side.
The clay man still has three points of fire, and who is he Gu Xuan?
He is the king of Hedong County in Daliang, the master of Huangsha County, after experiencing so many things, he is no longer the down-and-out five princes in Yongle Palace who have to endure everything, since he has come to his place, then he must abide by the rules, if anyone does not understand the rules, he does not mind teaching each other well.
What's more, he had already seen that Ji Yaoling and the group of people below him were not really masters and servants, but were more like friends-like subordinates, otherwise the other party would not have cared about whether Ji Yaoling would be difficult at all, but was so bold and presumptuous and provocative, such a group of people, hiding big hidden dangers, he could be regarded as helping Ji Yaoling beat the other party in advance.
In the final analysis, the two sides say that they have the same root and the same origin, but they are already two families, relatives come to visit the door, if you abide by the rules, then there will naturally be good wine and good meat to serve, if you don't follow the rules, don't blame him for being ruthless.
As for Ji Yaoling's other attendants below, except for one or two sensible people, the others didn't feel anything wrong at first, and the second was that their gang went all the way south, walked through thousands of mountains and rivers, and had a lifelong friendship with each other, at this time, in the face of outsiders, it was even more necessary to unite, so no one stopped them at all, but they all held their hands on their chests, so they watched for a long time, which can be regarded as cheering for their companions.
In the face of Jinglong's initiative to invite battle, the man was not ambiguous, and immediately stood up, held the sword at his waist, and sneered loudly: "Heh, why don't you dare? β
Lu Yi on the other side only cared about drinking tea at this time, and did not get up to make peace, on the contrary, he also hoped that there would be this battle, and he could kill the arrogance of the other party well, some things, he was not easy to say, and it was not bad to let others do it, he was very clear about his identity, he only recognized Gu Xuan as the master, and the other party insulted his lord, if it weren't for the fact that the other party was not very old, and there was an old friendship, he didn't need Jinglong to do it, he would have to get back this face for Gu Xuan.
Gu Xuan's expression was calm, he couldn't see his joy or anger, he just raised his hand downward and said, "When you come to the realm of my Liang Kingdom, you have to learn to respect your master, Jinglong, you might as well teach this guest from the atrium a good lesson!"
Hearing this, the man below squinted at Gu Xuan on the main seat, and said in an arrogant tone: "It's ridiculous, I will only respect powerful people." β
As he spoke, he immediately bowed his hand to Ji Yaoling and said: "Princess, it just so happened that the thieves in the sand sea were not happy to kill before, and I also want to move my muscles and bones well, since this benevolent brother took the initiative to invite the battle, then I will ask him for a lesson or two, and ask the princess for permission!"
He was deeply afraid that Ji Yaoling would stop him, so he preemptively said this.
Ji Yaoling didn't have any special expression, he first glanced at each other with Gu Xuan next to him, both of them were smart people, they smiled sincerely at each other, saying that they wouldn't mind each other, it just so happened that Ji Yaoling also wanted to try the strength of Gu Xuan's side, after all, Mr. Lu Yilu, who was famous in the atrium, came here, and he also served the young man in front of him, how to look at how to condescend, so he also said: "Since the master doesn't mind, what's the harm in meeting friends with martial arts." β
If you lose, let these people's mouths stop for a while, she didn't come to Nandi to show her identity, but to ask for help, these people escorted meritorious, but if you can't control your mouth, sooner or later things will be bad, and if she leaves the atrium, she will no longer be the fifth princess of the Great Zhou Dynasty, especially now on other people's territory, with an interval of three generations, the blood is light, it is simply negligible, and when the time comes, it angers others, and there is only one death.
But these people accompanied her all the way south, hard work, and never screamed bitterly in the middle, which can't be taught by her to teach them, under the pretense of outsiders, no matter whether she wins or loses, she has a way to turn it into a big thing and a small thing, and in the end, it will unite everyone's hearts even more, and completely turn these people into her own subordinates, in short, except for the possibility of offending this "Gu Xuan", everything else is her benefit.
