Because of the presence of His Majesty the Emperor, a family banquet was calm and unwavering, and the kings were all restrained and arrogant, regardless of seniority, they all revealed a meek meaning, which made Xu Beiyou, who was in the last seat, a little eye-opening, it turned out that these royal highnesses who were more or less in their eyes on weekdays also had such a side.

But seriously, there are three important members missing from the Xiao family banquet this time.

Xiao Jin, the king of Wei, the emperor's son-in-law Wanyan Beiyue, and the uncle Lin Han.

The three of them are the lords of one party, Xiao Jin, the king of Wei, and Lin Han, the king of the grassland khan, don't say that Wanyan Beiyue is already in the imperial capital, but he still did not appear in this family banquet, which reveals a bit strange.

It's just that everyone here is a person who has a deep heart for the city, no one showed it on their faces, and no one asked out loud, just ate silently, even if they spoke, it was also a common thing that had nothing to do with the government, Mu Tangzhi and Xiao Maha talked about the horse farm outside the Saiwai, and said that they would exchange a few high-quality war horses for a stallion named Goose Yellow in Xiao Maha's hand, but Xiao Maha was disgusted with too little and refused to do this loss-making business. Xiao Bai and Xiao Li talked about a troupe, if Xiao Li liked it, he would send it to his house, Xiao Li refused Xiao Bai's kindness on the grounds that the gentleman did not take the favor of others. Xiao Qi and Han Xuan, the two elders, were discussing the marriage in a whisper, drinking slowly.

At the banquet, Xiao Xuan focused on asking Xu Beiyou and Xiao Quji, the two young people, whether there were any difficulties in the imperial capital, and if there were difficulties, he said bluntly that he was not like the emperor of Great Qi, but like a kind elder.

It wasn't until the moment of Shen Shi that this family banquet came to an end, His Majesty the Emperor Xiao Xuan took the lead in getting up and leaving, Zhang Baisui also left, and then all the kings got up together and walked out of the palace.

After leaving the Gaoguang Palace, the kings who were originally happy immediately became distinct, Xiao Maha, the king of Lingwu County, glanced at Xu Beiyou, did not step forward to speak, and left directly, followed by Xiao Quji, the king of Liangwu County, nodded slightly at Xu Beiyou, and the second left.

The third is Xiao Li, the king of Yan, who does not squint and completely ignores Xu Beiyou.

After Han Xuan greeted Xu Beiyou, he left with Zhao Wang Xiaoqi, and it seemed that there was still something to discuss.

Unconsciously, only Xiao Bai, the king of Qi, Mu Tangzhi, the king of Liao, and Xu Beiyou were left.

Xu Beiyou stood in the middle, Xiao Bai on the left, and Mu Tangzhi on the right.

Speaking of which, these two prominent vassal kings are still small, but the relationship between the two is not very harmonious, especially after their respective kings became vassals, Mu Tangzhi's temperament became more and more gloomy, and Xiao Bai swept away his childhood fat and powder, and became more and more heroic.

Mu Tangzhi first glanced at Xiao Bai, then patted Xu Beiyou's shoulder, and said congratulations, Xu Beiyou returned with a fist salute, Mu Tangzhi smiled, flicked his sleeves and walked away.

Xiao Bai stretched out a hand to support the handrail of the carved dragon, and said with a light smile: "You have a wide range of friends, Xiao Maha, the king of Lingwu County, Xiao Quji, the king of Liangwu County, Mu Tangzhi, the king of Liao, and I am the king of Qi." ”

Xu Beiyou looked at Xiao Bai, a little uncomfortable, in addition to Xiao Bai's transcendent status, but also because there was an extra layer of relationship between the two of them, Xu Beiyou had no relatives since he was a child, how to get along with relatives was a very unfamiliar situation for him.

Moreover, Xiao Bai also has a layer of crown prince status, which is very different.

Xu Beiyou is only the young master of the Sword Sect, Xiao Bai is the young master of the Great Qi, in terms of today's Sword Sect, he is also the young master, and it is also a world of difference.

Xiao Bai turned around and asked gently, "Why didn't you come to Qizhou when you were alone in the Northern God Capital this time?"

Xu Beiyou said softly: "The reason why I went from the northwest this time was because I wanted to go back to Xiaofangzhai to have a look, and in the end I could only enter Zhili Prefecture from Yanzhou, which was too far away from Qizhou. ”

Xiao Bai smiled, turned around and walked in the direction of the spiritual platform, followed by Xu Beiyou.

Along the way, whether it is a eunuch or an inner guard, after seeing the black python robe, there is some awe from the bones, there is no half of the palace people facing the arrogance of people outside the palace, although the king of Qi has been crowned a prince, but he is different from other vassal kings, now everyone knows that the king of Qi is going to become the prince, that is, the future master of this palace city, there are not too many taboo rules for walking in the palace, even if there is, it is not for them to be managed.

The two walked side by side on the ink-colored royal road, and Xiao Bai spoke: "I heard that you taught Duanmu Yu a hard lesson. ”

Xu Beiyou nodded and said, "I planted a wisp of Immortal Sword Qi in his body. ”

He hesitated for a moment, and then said, "A few days ago, Duanmu Ruisheng once found me and asked me to take action to remove that wisp of Immortal Sword Qi, but I refused him. ”

Xiao Bai asked, "Because he didn't have enough chips?"

"Not exactly. Xu Beiyou shook his head and said: "My current realm is insufficient, and I can't put it away." ”

Xiao Bai turned his head to look at this future brother-in-law and said with a smile: "In this way, Duanmu Yu can only wait for death?"

Xu Beiyou said calmly: "Not really, it's still the same sentence, my cultivation is still shallow, and I can't fully exert the power of the sword qi of Zhuxian Immortal, if there is a master who makes a move, I can also temporarily suppress the sword qi in Duanmu Yu's body." ”

Xiao Bai smiled: "You still haven't done things completely, this rush to the crown is inevitable to be discounted." ”

Xu Beiyou said calmly: "If I were the kind of person who acted recklessly, I wouldn't be alive today." ”

Xiao Bai snorted and didn't speak.

Xu Beiyou continued: "My father said that the larvae of cicadas can only break through the ground after ten years of dormancy, and then the golden cicada will shed its shell and flutter its wings and fly. I have been unknown in the northwest for 20 years, and then it took me two years to reach the top of Jiangnan, and I am contaminated with too much worldliness and too many fetters. ”

Xiao Bai looked at the spiritual platform that was getting closer and closer, and slowly spoke: "I am also a person who practices swordsmanship, and I can understand your mentality. ”

Xu Beiyou smiled lightly.

The spiritual platform not far from the two of them was built by the former emperor Xiao Yu to mourn his deceased mother, and the other Tongxian platform stood side by side with each other.

Xiao Bai stopped in front of the white jade steps in front of the spiritual platform, looked up at the high platform of more than 30 zhang and said: "The first emperor often came here when he was alive, and it is said that standing on it can overlook the Meishan Imperial Mausoleum. ”

Xu Beiyou suddenly remembered something, hesitated for a moment, and asked: "Since it is an imperial tomb, is it the pattern of the ancestor in the middle of the left and right?"

Xiao Bai nodded and said: "The south is sunny and bright, so it is called 'Zhao', and Zhao has a clear meaning." The north front is backlit and ambiguous, so it is called 'Mu', and Mu has a dark meaning. Emperor Xuanzu Jing's tomb is in the center with the respect of the ancestors, Emperor Wuzuchun's tomb is 'Zhao' and lives in the south, and Emperor Taizu Gao's Ming Tomb is 'Mu' and lives in the north. ”

Xu Beiyou said softly: "Since the spiritual platform can overlook the Shengling Tomb of Emperor Wuzuchun, then the Tongxian Terrace opposite the Spiritual Terrace can not overlook the Ming Tomb of the first emperor?"

Xiao Bai was slightly stunned, and then his face suddenly became solemn, and he wondered: "Tongxiantai?"

Xu Beiyou said softly: "I met the great real person Qingchen before, and he mentioned the Ming Tomb of the first emperor several times, which seems to mean something. ”

Xiao Bai suddenly remembered many secrets, and his expression was in a trance for a while.

After a long time, Xiao Bai said in a deep voice: "Don't mention this matter to others again." ”

Xu Beiyou nodded lightly.

Xiao Bai turned around and hurried away.
