Chapter 243: The Banquet
Du Ziqing took Su Yunxiu's hand to attend the banquet, and a special person led them to their place, Su Yunxiu looked at Du Ziqing and smiled, letting go of each other's hands.
As soon as the two of them sat down, the King of the Western Regions looked at Du Ziqing's eyes very warmly, if the King of the Western Regions was a man, Su Yunxiu would undoubtedly think that he was interested in Du Ziqing.
"Ziqing, I salute you, you are really amazing, you defeated the Huns in such a short time!" The King of the Western Regions raised the wine glass in front of him and raised it in Du Ziqing's direction, his mouth full of words of praise for Du Ziqing.
Du Ziqing's performance is indeed excellent, if he relies on these people in the Western Regions alone, it is estimated that he will not be able to win without a year and a half, let alone be able to sign a ten-year peace agreement.
It only took him a few days to make it like this, and he really could afford these compliments, and Su Yunxiu was also proud of Du Ziqing on the side.
Such a powerful general is her future husband Su Yunxiu, just thinking about it, Su Yunxiu feels happy.
After all, beauties love heroes, and there is no woman who doesn't like heroes, and now Du Ziqing is undoubtedly a big hero, not only Su Yunxiu thinks so, even the people outside think so.
"It's not that powerful, it's all luck!" Du Ziqing responded modestly, he really didn't want to take credit, he just wanted to live a simple and ordinary life.
The King of the Western Regions listened to Du Ziqing's modest words, admired him even more, and said a few words of praise for Du Ziqing.
With the king of the Western Regions taking the lead, these subordinates who fought side by side with Du Ziqing also admired Du Ziqing, and couldn't help but want to say a few words.
"General, to be honest, you are really amazing, I respect you for this cup!" A former deputy general said to Du Ziqing that before, he was not convinced, but when he saw Du Ziqing's performance on the battlefield, he was convinced.
Now these Du Ziqing's previous subordinates can't wait for Du Ziqing to continue to stay, as their generals, the experience of fighting side by side with Du Ziqing makes them can only be described in one word, that is, "cool!" ”
The successive praises came one after another, and Du Ziqing responded one by one, and he didn't know what it was like in his heart.
Looking at these people who were not convinced at all, now they are showing admiration, admiration, and reluctance one by one, Du Ziqing is also a little uncomfortable, but he clearly knows that their difference is doomed.
He is not from the Western Regions, he will not stay in the Western Regions, and Shangjing still has responsibilities that belong to him.
"I don't know if Ziqing can stay in the Western Regions, of course, the general is still yours!" The King of the Western Regions looked at Du Ziqing, as if asking, but there was still oppression.
The king of the Western Regions is the king of the Western Regions, and naturally he has his own iron-blooded means, otherwise, how could he have been in the position of king for so long.
If he didn't have an iron and bloody wrist, it is estimated that the people below would not obey him, and he might have been ousted from power a long time ago, so the words of the king of the Western Regions are still imposing.
When Du Ziqing heard the words of the King of the Western Regions, he was not surprised, he clearly knew that what should come would always come, and when the King of the Western Regions wanted to hold a banquet, he knew that the King of the Western Regions had fought with this idea.
When the words of the King of the Western Regions came out, the subordinates who fought side by side with Du Ziqing also spoke out one by one, they also wanted Du Ziqing to stay here, and they also hoped that Du Ziqing could continue to march and fight with them.
Without Du Ziqing, they feel that no one can be suitable for the position of general, and only Du Ziqing will sincerely obey.
Hearing that the whole banquet was a little noisy, Su Yunxiu's brows furrowed, it turned out that this king of the Western Regions actually had this idea, Su Yunxiu's face immediately changed, the Western Regions was not their home.
Who doesn't love their hometown, Su Yunxiu and the others naturally want to return to their hometown, they can't stay here in the Western Regions, Su Yunxiu glanced at Du Ziqing lightly.
"Wang, I can't stay here for the time being, there are still things waiting for me in Beijing." Du Ziqing said respectfully, although he spoke a little tactfully, but none of the people present were fools, and they all knew what Du Ziqing's choice was.
His words clearly told these people in the Western Regions that he Du Ziqing could not stay in the Western Regions, and he wanted to return to Shangjing, without any room for negotiation.
After Du Ziqing finished speaking, he glanced at Su Yunxiu, and the two of them smiled tacitly, the two of them had a heart, and they really didn't want to stay in this place in the Western Regions.
After listening to Du Ziqing's words, his former subordinates were a little disappointed, they had just heard the words of the King of the Western Regions, and they originally had some hope that Du Ziqing would stay here, but after Du Ziqing's words were finished, the glimmer of hope in their hearts was shattered.
But the reaction of the king of the Western Regions was different from these people, his face immediately changed, he didn't expect Du Ziqing to be so ignorant of current affairs, so he refused directly.
The King of the Western Regions was about to have a seizure, and Du Ziqing naturally found out that now there were only the three of them in the Western Regions, and he didn't have anything, but Su Yunxiu definitely couldn't be hurt.
"Wang, when I go back, I will tell the Holy Lord about this matter, and let him strengthen the defense of the Western Regions." Du Ziqing hurriedly said, he knew what the King of the Western Regions was thinking now.
He can't stay here, and all the King of the Western Regions wants is the peace of the Western Regions, and saying such a thing should make the King of the Western Regions gradually calm down.
When the King of the Western Regions heard Du Ziqing's words, he thought about it, and he also understood that Du Ziqing was so resolute that it was impossible to stay in the Western Regions, and his proposal was barely acceptable.
Now there is only this way, and other than that, it is estimated that there is no good way, and this is the only way to get the best of both worlds now.
"Okay." The King of the Western Regions just said one word, but Du Ziqing knew that this was the King of the Western Regions who was relieved, and the few of them could go back safely.
Du Ziqing glanced at Su Yunxiu, and Su Yunxiu also knew what Du Ziqing meant, so he directly and respectfully saluted like the king of the Western Regions.
"King, we will go back to-morrow!" Su Yunxiu looked at the King of the Western Regions, as if he was talking about what the weather was like today.
The King of the Western Regions looked at Su Yunxiu, and when he heard his words, he was still a little reluctant in his heart, he really admired Du Ziqing and his party, and wanted to keep them for a few more days, but now in this situation, he had no other way but to agree.
Although they were reluctant, they could only agree, and the Western Regions Dynasty nodded with Su Yunxiu and them.
