Chapter Thirty-Six: A Slight Deception Works Well
Old Henness was very distressed, and Prince Xerxes was afraid that until now he had not realized that his identity might have been exposed.
Who else could be the Persian girl who gave Prince Xerxes a golden melon seed?
It must be the new guest of the county lord's mansion who became famous some time ago, Latisi!
This woman is very intelligent, and Prince Xerxes still has a good conversation with her? Where do people have so many common topics with you?
Prince Xerxes chatted eagerly with the student of the Agricultural Research Institute named Su Han, but soon began to inquire about Latis, and the purpose of his coming to the investment conference today was simply obvious.
Old Henness now knows where he got that golden invitation, and the county lord's mansion doesn't want to invite him at all, but Prince Xerxes. It's a shame that he was still complacent before, thinking that he was really a business wizard and was favored by Zhang Junma.
Wait a minute! This Zhang Junma is friendly with me, could it be that he was fighting our Persian royal family in the first place? For the sake of their wealth, or do you want to capture them and give them to the Caliphate of the Great Food in exchange for benefits?
Old Henis clearly remembers that this Zhang Junma is quite familiar with the dynastic changes and historical changes that have taken place on the distant Iranian plateau from ancient times to the present, even better than he Hennis.
Thinking of this, a cold sweat broke out on Old Henis's back, and he looked at the smiling merchants in the Western Regions around him, but he felt that everyone seemed to have a knife hidden in their laughter, and they had bad intentions towards him.
Old Henis was also a man of great storms, and he quickly calmed down, after all, those were only his worst conjectures.
Because in fact, the Persian royal family in exile now has even less wealth than his old Henis alone, and it has been many years since the Great Eclipse annexed Persia, and almost all the Persian city-states that still insist on self-government have also been eaten away by the Great Cannibals, and now there are not many people who continue to respect the Persian royal family as the legitimate ruler.
It can be said that the current Persian royal family in exile is simply the chicken rib of the chicken.
It's just that Prince Xerxes was easily seen by a woman to see the flaws in his identity, which makes people speechless, alas, a knife on the head of the color word, the more beautiful the woman, the more dangerous it is.
That's it, if you come, you will be safe, and presumably the county lord's mansion will not have any bad intentions when inviting the prince to the banquet.
After Su Han brought hot tea to the two, Xerxes couldn't wait to chat with him again, and the more the two chatted, the happier they became, and young people always had a lot of common topics.
The elder Henis decided to get acquainted with the other Silk Road businessmen who attended the meeting.
He had a good reputation, and his conversation style was aristocratic, so he quickly made many new friends.
As soon as everyone heard that he got a golden invitation, they all respected him a little more.
"Mr. Henis must be extraordinary, otherwise he would have received the most honorable golden invitation!"
"I heard that the people who also got the golden invitation letter are His Royal Highness King Yu, Feng Shilang, Guizhu Khan, the Prime Minister of Khotan, and the Second Elder Xue Yantuo!"
"I didn't expect that Mr. Henis would have opened up the network at the top of the Great Xia Kingdom without a trace, and in the future, I would like to carry my little brother more......
"Mr. Henis is simply a model for my businessmen in the Western Regions, in the future, the two of us must move around more, and we will make a fortune together......"
There are more and more compliments, and the sycophants are getting louder and louder, Rao is old Henis is cheeky and a little twitching at the corners of his mouth, is this how I usually have a face?
Finally, in a burst of hustle and bustle, old Henis saw Zhang Pengjun Ma wearing a delicately made red maple silver silk crewneck shirt enthusiastically appeared in the banquet hall, he walked all the way, all the way to greet the merchants of the Western Regions who were invited to the meeting, and when he met the familiar, he would pause and chat for a few words.
Behind him, one left and one right followed a man and a woman, the male is the beautiful male Gundam, and the female is the beautiful royal sister Latisi, but she is wearing Western Regions costumes at the moment, wearing a veil on her head, and only revealing a pair of beautiful eyes.
Both of them were dressed in costumes and had excellent demeanor, commanding the students of the Agricultural Research Institute on the field to quickly arrange the sitting of the businessmen from the Western Regions.
"Oh, my sincere old Hennis, you can attend this investment conference, it really makes my county lord's mansion shine," Zhang Peng walked in front of old Hennis, and took the old Hennis's hand without saying anything, his eyes were eager, his tone was sincere, and the words of praise poured out as if he didn't want money.
"Hahaha, Zhang Junma, you are too polite, I am just an ordinary gold and silver merchant, it is my honor to be able to participate in the investment conference today," Old Henis was very humble, he was very self-aware.
Xerxes stopped talking to Su Han, but focused on this rumored county master, and sure enough, as he thought, this was a noble character engraved in his bones, and he could see at a glance that Zhang Peng and himself had some kind of similar temperament.
At this time, Zhang Peng ended his greeting with Old Henis, looked at Xerxes, and happened to meet Xerxes's eyes.
"Prince Xerxes, hello, I extend my cordial greetings to you on behalf of the Northern Court Protectorate of the Great Xia Empire," Zhang Peng walked up to Xerxes without any warning, and in front of everyone's eyes, he told Xerxes's identity.
Xerxes immediately widened his eyes and took a half step back, and after a brief moment of panic, he turned his suspicious gaze to old Henis.
"Prince Xerxes, don't doubt old Hernis's loyalty to you," Latis stepped forward at the right time, she lifted her veil, revealing a beautiful face, "Your identity was guessed by Latis, and the golden melon seeds as a tribute will only be known to the Persian royal family. ”
Seeing Latis in full costume, Xerxes was stunned for a long time before coming back to his senses, but worthy of being a prince with royal education, he hurriedly adjusted his state, put his right hand on his chest, and replied to Zhang Peng's greeting: "Hello, Sir Overseer from the East, Xerxes IV sends you the best wishes of Elanshahr. ”
Zhang Peng's mood at the moment was excited, he didn't expect that he really caught a big fish, two days ago Latis told him that there was a young man suspected of being a descendant of the Persian exiled royal family in the old Hernis's house, and he didn't believe it, and then he asked Mr. Qin to use the secret agent system of the Beiting Army and only confirmed the sixty percent possibility.
And today, he deliberately made such a surprise attack, and he really deceived the Persian prince.
Xerxes has been cheering himself on at the moment...... There will be no danger, there will be no danger, Beiting will definitely invite me if he asks for me!
The next moment, Xerxes saw Latis, who was standing behind Zhang Peng, actually looking at him, blinking with a beautiful eye and biting his lip.
Xerxeston was deflated, and a palpable red color appeared on his face...... It's over, I can't remember what I said to Latis that day, damn it, why is she so beautiful?
