Text Text_Chapter 74 Dinner Party (II)



After some episodes just now, Zhang Yi and his party met Shangguan Enze, the lord of the Huaye Empire. At this time, Shangguan Enze was wearing a dragon robe and sitting on the dragon chair, and there were two men standing on the left and right, looking at their appearance, Zhang Yi had already guessed that these two people were Shangguan Yaochen's two elder brothers, the eldest prince Shangguan Yaoyang and the second prince Shangguan Yaoyue. It can be said that the lineup is already a symbol of the best power of the Huaye Empire, and the current emperor and the three princes who are all likely to become future emperors appear together, which shows that Shangguan Yaochen attaches great importance to Zhang Yi.

"Yaochen has seen his father!" he knelt down and saluted. Zhang Yi and others also reacted and knelt down and saluted one after another.

"Get up. Shangguan Enze said in a calm tone.

Zhang Yi got up and looked at the emperor who had a relationship with him, although Shangguan Enze was smiling at this time, but it gave people a feeling of not being angry and arrogant, just sitting there quietly and doing nothing, Zhang Yi and the others could clearly feel the majesty that naturally emanated from the superiors. This made Zhang Yi and the others feel very nervous, and even Zhang Xin'er, who was usually not afraid of the sky, was still bowing his head and not saying a word at this moment.

After a while, Zhang Yi took the lead in raising his head, bowing slightly, and said without humility or arrogance: "Zizheng has seen my uncle." ”

Although Zhang Yi's clear voice was not loud, everyone could hear it clearly in this room where the needle could be heard. Shangguan Yaochen couldn't help but give Zhang Yi a thumbs up, admiring the courage of this fifteen-year-old cousin from the bottom of his heart. Because although Shangguan Yaochen is a prince, he has been nervous in front of Shangguan Enze since he was a child, and he is not the only one who is nervous, his eldest brother and second brother are also the same. This is not because Shangguan Enze deliberately set up the image of a strict father for them to make them afraid of him, but because of the momentum of dominating the world naturally formed by years of being in charge of the empire. And this kind of inadvertently makes the people around him fearful of him, even the son who has been by his side for many years is no exception.

Shangguan Enze was very satisfied with Zhang Yi's performance, nodded slightly, and said secretly in his heart: "It is worthy of being Zhang Lingyun's son, just look at this kind of heart, this son is definitely not a thing in the pool." Moreover, it is said that he also has the highest talent in the history of the Zhang family, and if this continues, the next generation of Qinglong Dukes may make the entire Moon Scar Continent tremble. ”

But Zhang Yi's outstanding performance also made the emperor a little worried, and he looked at the three sons beside him without paying attention. Although they are all excellent, all of them are dragons among people, but compared to Zhang Yi, they are still too poor in talent, and they have absolute strength in the Moon Scar Continent to control the boundless power.

Gathering his thoughts, Shangguan Enze smiled and said to Zhang Yi: "Well, very good, worthy of being the son of a virtuous brother, this composure is the same as your father's touch, haha......"

"Uncle Liao praised, how dare Zizheng compare with his father. ”

"It's good that young people are not arrogant or impatient, and I am now already looking forward to the day when you will surpass. Shangguan Enze did not hesitate to praise him, so that the eldest prince and the second prince, who were still high up at the beginning, also reined in, looked at Zhang Yi with a very interested look, and were thinking about something in their hearts.

"Okay kids, I think you're hungry too, aren't you?"

"Erchen is here!"

"Take Zizheng's friends to dinner, Zizheng stays, I have something to say to him. Shangguan Enze said.

"Yes, Father. After speaking, Shangguan Yaochen secretly gave Zhang Yi a strange look, and then left with the others.

"You two go down too. Shangguan Enze instructed Shangguan Yaoyang and Shangguan Yaoyue.

"Yes! The two answered and left together, but Shangguan Yaoyue touched Zhang Yi's arm very covertly when passing by Zhang Yi's side, and then left as if nothing happened. Shangguan Enze, who was sitting on the main seat, acted as if he hadn't seen anything, and after the two of them left, he gently beckoned to Zhang Yi and said, "Zizheng is coming to me." ”

Although Zhang Yi didn't understand why Shangguan Enze wanted to keep him, who made him his boss, he could only walk to Shangguan Enze respectfully.

Although Zhang Yi's answer just now was neither humble nor arrogant, but now it is impossible for a person to face this lord of the empire so closely and say that he is not nervous. Seeing that Zhang Yi finally showed a hint of restraint, Shangguan Enze smiled knowingly, how firm his heart was, after all, Zhang Yi was still a child who was only fifteen years old. Shangguan Enze stretched out his hand and gently patted Zhang Yi's sturdy shoulder to comfort him not to be nervous, this affectionate action made Zhang Yi a little flattered, and he looked at Shangguan Enze in a daze for a while, not knowing what to say. Zhang Yi felt warmth in his heart at this time, but also pride. Everyone has vanity, and Zhang Yi is no exception, he can be so intimately patted on the shoulder by the monarch of the Huaye Empire and dare to ask how many people there can be in the world.

"Ahem, Zizheng!" Shangguan Enze's call pulled Zhang Yi back to reality from his smug fantasy, and Zhang Yi secretly scolded himself for being unproductive, and such a little thing made him flutter. However, before Zhang Yi could put away the stupid expression in his fantasy, it turned into a strange expression after the fusion of various emotions such as surprise, curiosity, and incomprehension. The reason why Zhang Yi is like this is because Zhang Yi saw that the dignified king of a country actually showed an embarrassed and unspeakable look in front of him.

If Zhang Yi was patted on the shoulder by Shang Enzehan intimately, few people in the world have gotten it, but there are some people who have such an opportunity. But if Zhang Yi, who saw Shangguan Ruohan, the lord of Huaye, show such an expression, dared to say that he was the only one in this world, so Zhang Yi would be so surprised.

Zhang Yi's expression deepened Shangguan Enze's embarrassment, and he deliberately cleared his throat and said, "Zizheng, did you hear something last night?"

Shangguan Enze's words immediately evoked Zhang Yi's memories of last night, originally Zhang Yi subconsciously forgot what he saw and heard yesterday as soon as he saw such a majestic Shangguan Enze, or did not associate Shangguan Enze last night with Shangguan Enze who was sitting in front of him now, after all, the gap between before and after can no longer be described as big.

The current Shangguan Enze is like a child who has been caught by someone, and wants to bribe the person who grabbed his handle to make him not publicize it.

Zhang Yi didn't know how to answer Shangguan Enze's question, and said that he heard it, Zhang Yi was still afraid that Shangguan Enze would embarrass himself regardless of his identity, although Shangguan Enze would not be unfavorable to himself because of Zhang Yi's matter, but God knows how many ways an emperor would have if he wanted to fix you. If you don't hear it, then it's even worse. It is impossible to convince Shangguan Enze of this kind of lie, and if it is discovered, the consequences will be even more serious.

Just as Zhang Yi was thinking about how to answer so as not to be beaten, Shangguan Enze spoke: "Zizheng! But it doesn't matter if you heard it last night, but you must forget everything you saw and heard, if such a thing is spread, it will have a very bad impact on the image of the empire." So I ask that you not speak of it to anyone, especially your father, can you promise me?"
