Chapter 543: Asking for a Horse

The news of the Dragon King's early arrival soon spread throughout the Dragon Court, and many people unfolded their imaginations in addition to the surprise, and some even claimed to have seen the Dragon King flying from the sky on a Dapeng bird.

King Kwari was very willing to show everyone that he had firmly encircled the dragon king in his hands, so in the evening of the next day, he held a large-scale dust-washing banquet and invited all the nobles of the Northern Court.

Gu Shenwei felt like a rare animal from afar, widely watched and admired, but lacked a little respect.

In the eyes of the people of Beiting, "Dragon King" is just a nickname in the rivers and lakes, and there is no difference between the King of Swords, the King of Guns, and the King of Might, Gu Shenwei had been reminded from Fang Wenis before, but it was not until this banquet that he had a personal feeling.

The Holy Sun King, who succeeded to the second throne, is said to have no ambition for the throne, and as soon as he saw the Dragon King, he affectionately grabbed his arm, "Where's the Dapeng Bird? ”

When Gu Shenwei said that the red-topped Dapeng had been away from him for a long time, the prince looked disappointed, let go of the dragon king, and never paid much attention to him since then.

The attitude of the other guests was similar, either too affectionate and casual, or arrogant and cold, and in short, no one regarded him as the real king.

In contrast, King Kwari was not only the host, but also the focus of the whole banquet, and everyone present, regardless of age or status, spared no effort to flatter the old Khan's favorite grandson, and even the King of Shengri, who was his own uncle, struggled to move his short body, pushed away the crowd that stood in the way, and said loudly with the strength of wine: "King Khari, I am very unhappy, why do you refuse to marry my daughter? Is she too ugly to be worthy of you?"

The phenomenon of intermarriage between the same surname of the Beiting royal family is not uncommon, so the question of the Holy Day King is not unbelievable.

King Kwari always maintained an amiable attitude in front of outsiders, he first drank a bowl of wine, and said: "My good uncle, whoever marries your daughter should feel high, but you should know that I have handed over the right to choose a concubine to the old Khan King, and if he does not speak, I dare not even touch a female slave, and the bow and arrow have not been shot for too long, and they are about to grow worms." ”

This is a joke that Beiting people like, and the hearty laughter of a tent shocked Gu Shen's ears numb.

King Shengri was inexplicably moved, and held up the wine bowl, "The old Khan King's eyes are all over the grassland, and he does not miss a single grass or tree, so he knows that King Kwari is the hope of Beiting, and all those who think about Beiting instead of themselves should automatically give way." ”

This was close to openly asking the Great Sun King to give up his bid for succession.

The Great Sun King did not attend the feast, but not all the people in the tent were supporters of the King of Kuari, and not many people heard this and applauded him, and many poured wine into him, and some people gathered around the Dragon King to ask questions, all of whom pretended not to hear the words of the Holy Sun King.

Gu Shenwei is a patient observer, and he is not in a hurry to establish authority in an unfamiliar environment, which is neither necessary nor effective.

He compared the people around King Kwari with his subordinates, and found that his previous judgment was not wrong, and in the face of the competition between the two powers, it is normal for people to waver and bet on both sides, and this kind of person occupies the mainstream everywhere.

Gu Shenwei strengthened the position and confidence of the swingman with a victory, and did not dig into the bottom of it too much, his expectations of loyalty were never high, yes, he would be very happy and cherished, no, and it would not affect his plans.

King Kwari obviously did not support the Dragon King's idea, and in the face of the cold scene, he looked immobile, but his gaze stayed on a few people for a while, and these people either pretended to be confused and showed a disdainful attitude, or they listened too seriously but did not agree.

They were blacklisted by King Khari.

King Kwari was born noble, and since he was a child, he has been exposed to the unflawed loyalty of the people of Beiting to the Khan King, and has regarded it as a natural and indispensable thing, just like the air he breathes, a little less will make people feel uncomfortable and dangerous.

He has not yet become the king of Khan, but he has already begun to test the loyalty of his supporters.

In Gu's view, this is a flaw, and some potential supporters are likely to be scared away and switch to the other side.

Even so, King Kwari still had the upper hand, and the signs of the Great Sun King's faintness were becoming more and more obvious, and he had actually withdrawn from the circle of competing for the King of Khan, but he himself did not know it.

Gu Shenwei is also flawed, he doesn't drink.

At the banquet of the people of the North Garden, he didn't drink much, it was almost an insult to the master, King Kuari was magnanimous about this, and the others were not so easy-going, once he picked up the wine bowl, he found that the Dragon King did not cooperate, and immediately showed a look of surprise and puzzlement, and then left with dissatisfaction.

Gu Shenwei lost some potential friends as a result.

Hunting and war are the two eternal topics of the Beiting people after drinking, more popular than wine and women, and soon, the upcoming "Battle of the Garden" has become a word on everyone's lips.

King Kuari is right, there will be a battle between Beiting and the Central Plains, at least the nobles of Beiting are ready, and the warriors of the clan have already gone to the pointing point to assemble and standby, everyone thinks that this will be the largest war in decades, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a decisive battle.

Not all the nobles have the consciousness of King Kuari, most of them want to let their horses in the Central Plains, "eat up their crops, rob their women and livestock, and in less than ten years, the locusts in the Central Plains will die, and all the land will become pastures for the Beiting people." This will always get a lot of support.

The main battlefield is located in the east and west directions, but even the westernmost battlefield is more than a thousand miles away from the Western Regions.

In the eyes of the two great powers, the Western Regions was only a minor nuisance, and while acquiring it would certainly help the war, losing it would not have a fundamental impact.

Gu Shenwei understood the reason for his contempt, and he began to think about his plan holistically, and found that many aspects needed to be adjusted.

In the middle of the feast, the king arrived.

He led a team of personal soldiers, riding the fastest horse and hurrying slowly, it was still a day and a night later than the Dragon King, Gu Shenwei would have been able to run faster if it wasn't for waiting for the Lotus Girl and Chu Nanping.

The Flame Pony is indeed a divine horse, and even the mounts with the other two are much faster, as evidenced by the blood-red eyes of the King of the Sun.

With the whip in his hand and sweating profusely, the king went into the tent, snatched the bowl from the nearest man, drank it up, threw it away, ignored all the greetings, and focused on his goal.

Soon he found it.

"Where's my horse?" said the King of the Sun, walking up to the Dragon King, in a low voice, his anger undisguised.

"I should have parked outside. Gu Shenwei stood up and pretended not to understand the other party's words.

"Don't pretend to me, if you don't see the Flame Pony today, we'll have a blood spatte on the spot. ”

The enraged King of the Sun attracted a lot of attention as soon as he entered, and when he confronted the Dragon King and raised his voice, everyone's eyes turned to this place.

As the master, the king of Khari was obliged to maintain peace among the guests, so he came over and said enthusiastically: "Lao Cha, haven't you gone hunting? Why did you come back early? I haven't seen the dragon king yet, so come, I'll introduce you." ”

It is not a secret in the royal circle of the North Court that King Ri ran to meet the Dragon King in advance, and King Kuari pretended not to know, but just wanted to give the two sides a step.

The King of the Sun Dynasty obviously only wanted the horse and did not want the steps, and glanced at the King of Kuari, his murderous eyes were still staring at the Dragon King, "Four Kings, you have to forgive me, this kid stole my flame horse, just like taking my life, if this revenge is not avenged, I will become his grandson." ”

King Kuari looked immobile on the surface, but he was taken aback in his heart, he couldn't imagine that the seemingly calm and calm Dragon King would be so bold and reckless, daring to offend the important magnates of the Northern Court.

He was just taken aback, and the others were shocked when they heard this, the King of the Sun Chase likes to show off, and the Flame Horse is famous in the North Court, and everyone knows that Lao Cha regards it more than his own son.

The Holy Sun King drank a little too much, and stumbled over, "Those who don't know are not guilty, those who don't know are not guilty, the Dragon King definitely doesn't know that the Flame Pony is the heart and liver treasure of the Ten Kings, as long as you hand it over, I guarantee that the King of the Sun will not bother with you." ”

The King of the Sun was very anxious to kick the old drunkard down, and wanted him not to care, unless the sun came out of the west, but his main concern now was to return to the BMW, so he held back his anger and waited for the Dragon King to answer.

Gu Shenwei opened his arms, "I was invited by the old Khan King, thinking that the people of Beiting would keep their promises, but I didn't expect that the Old Khan King's guarantee was useless at all. ”

"You take less old ......" King Rizhu shut up in time even in his rage, and the nobles of a tent would be disrespectful to the old Khan King at all, and it would be spread out immediately, which would be a big disaster.

King Khari said: "The words of the old Khan King are the will of heaven, and no one on the grassland will disobey it, please don't say such things again." Then he turned to the king of the sun, "Ask the ten kings to set an example to the guests." ”

The eyes of the king of Rizhu were almost spewing fire, his temper was very violent, but he was not stupid, and he would never be disrespectful to the old Khan king in public, so he asked in a low voice: "You dare to say that you did not steal my horse?"

"I didn't steal your horse. Gu Shenwei said flatly.

The king of Rizhu was stunned, looking at the appearance of the dragon king, it really didn't look like a lie, but the king of Kuari, who was standing on the side, laughed secretly in his heart, the "I" of the dragon king probably did not include his subordinates.

The Holy Sun King didn't feel superfluous at all, and burped a wine belch, spewing a strong smell of wine into the Dragon King's face, "Without the Flame Pony, how can you get to the Dragon Court so quickly?"

The King of the Day Nodding desperately, "Yes, how can it be so fast?"

Gu Shenwei raised his head, looked at the nobles in the room, and said, "I came here." ”

The Holy Sun King blinked, and suddenly leaned back with laughter, and the other nobles followed suit, as if the Dragon King had told the funniest joke of the feast.

"You came here?" King Rizhu didn't smile, and the murderous aura in his eyes became stronger.

"I can attest to it. Gu Shenwei was still calm, neither frightened by the king of the sun, nor embarrassed by laughter.

King Kuari's eyes changed a little, and he finally understood that he had underestimated this pale dragon king in the past.

Gu Shenwei's thought in his heart was another thing, after meeting several of the most important Beiting kings, he could already make a decision on the choice of allies.
