Return of the Swallow

Chapter 129

"Isn't the official who is?" Although Lian Shengjie answered with confidence, you can tell how dry his voice is by listening carefully.

Pan Xiao squinted at his stern face, sneered and ignored him.

The slender fingers with distinct joints held the exquisite gold-painted white porcelain wine cup, and immediately a smiling and beautiful maidservant held a copper pot to pour the wine for him.

The amber syrup falls into the wine cup, the color is crystal clear and the fragrance is rich.

The maidservant's red lips slightly curled up, her eyes wandering cautiously on Pang Xiao's handsome face, her cheeks were immediately dizzy, and her eyes fell shyly.

Lian Shengjie, who was watching this scene, was envious, couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and took a few steps forward.

However, Pang Xiao didn't care. He raised his head and drank the wine, his Adam's apple rolled, and the sharp curve of his jaw added a bit of randomness and domineering.

The maid-in-law’s cheeks turned red, and she was still preparing to pour the wine, but Pang Xiao used her slender fingers to pinch the wine cup upside down, waved her hand to beckon people to retreat, slanted at Lian Shengjie, and said lazily:

"Master Lian must have obtained the saint's will, otherwise he won't be so courageous that he won't bow to this king."

Only then did Lian Shengjie look away from the beauty, and at the sharp look in Shang Pang Xiao's mockery, he shook his body and almost knelt.

"Ah, this official, this official came by order. It's not like some people come here privately." Lian Shengjie said very nervously.

He was really scared of being beaten, and when he saw Pang Xiao, his whole body was tight, and the few places next to his back began to ache.

Pang Xiao raised his eyebrows and smiled, and pointed his finger at the empty seat: "Sit down, why bother standing up and replying, this king has not punished you for standing."

Lian Shengjie's face turned red, his anger was on his head, his timidity faded a bit, and his neck was sitting on the opposite side of Pang Xiao.

Seeing that the two of Da Zhou seemed to be at odds, Honghesiqing's nervous palms were sweating, for fear that the two of them could not agree with each other. If such a thing happened under his nose, the emperor would definitely be angry.

Seeing that Lian Shengjie didn't speak any more after he took the seat, the secretary of Honghe Temple breathed a sigh of relief, and ordered the accompanying officials to sit together, and ordered a banquet, singing and dancing.

The sound of the elegant orchestral silk and bamboo is melodious, and the young dancers are dressed in tulle dance clothes and dance gracefully and gracefully. In the magnificent flower hall, there is a bit of ethereal and fairy appearance, plus the red brocade peony flower tablecloth. Jade plate delicacy on the table of the Eight Immortals, full of fine wine.

Somerset was eating good food and wine, and there were beauties waiting, staring at the dancing girl with good eyes, and felt relaxed physically and mentally, and the tight mood instantly relaxed.

Pang Xiao obliquely looked at the stupid stupidity of Somerset Lian, and took the jug in the hands of the maidservant to drink from himself, enjoying the singing and dancing with extremely cold eyes, as if he hadn't seen the beauty of this world in his eyes.

The officials of Hongxu Siqing and other Dayan officials, seeing Pang Xiao and Lian Shengjie’s diametrically opposed attitude, had their own guesses in their hearts, and did not dare to participate in the fight between the two, so they only accompanied them in silence.

After three rounds of drinking, Lian Shengjie completely relaxed, and his emotions rose from drinking.

"Prince Zhongshun, why should you be guilty of coming to Dayan in private this time?" The original imposing sentence was unassuming when he stuttered after drinking.

Pang Xiao said lazily: "The two countries have succeeded in the peace talks and become friendly neighbors. What's wrong with this king who just walks around?"

"You are arrogant! As the commander of the tiger card, don't you know that your position is important? The saint did not allow you to travel, but you made a private decision. Do you know that you have angered the saint?" Lian Shengjie was drunk and lashed out.

The singing and dancing stopped suddenly, and everyone was stunned by Lian Shengjie's sudden anger.

Not daring to participate in the affairs of Great Zhou Dynasty, Hongyu Siqing quickly got up, waved his hand and led people back.

The scene of singing and dancing just now is quiet and strange now.

Pang Xiao took a sip of wine and was too lazy to speak.

Seeing that Pang Xiao was silent, Lian Shengjie sneered and said: "If you don't speak, you are afraid! I tell you Pang Zhixi, it's not a day or two for me to see that you are rampant. You have always been disrespectful to us old officials in Beiji, I will wait. Already loyal to the sage, but you have raised your nose and eyes at us, beating and scolding at every turn. Fortunately, the sage of the emperor has also seen through your domineering nature."

Pang Xiao dug his ears, "Did you finish?"

"The emperor asked the officer to ask you why Dayan came instead of returning to the capital! You still don't answer?!"

"Will be out, military orders are not subject to it."

Pang Xiao put down the jug, and the bottom of the brass jug touched the tabletop lightly, making a beep.

"Moreover, this king has his own reasons."

Lian Shengjie sneered when he saw that Pang Xiao hadn't violently cursed like before.

What about the Tiger Talisman with the Tiger Army?

What if a hundred thousand tigers are brave and good at fighting with one enemy ten?

Even if Pang Xiao is a prince, he still has to bow his head to the sage, and he is also afraid of the officials of the old Ministry of Beiji and the Long Xiangjun of Ji Zeyu of Dingbei!

Not to mention that the Longxiang Army is sufficient.

Just say that when the Great Zhou stepped down the mountains and rivers of Beiji, Pang Xiao led the tiger army to carry out the charge and massacre for the vanguard; the officials who had clearly expressed their surrender were also taken out by Pang Xiao to feed the dogs. This viciousness has made Beiji's old ministers jealous.

These people have now returned to Da Zhou, and in their hearts, Pang Xiao was the chief culprit that led to the demise of Beiji.

How can they not hate Pang Xiao?

In addition, Pang Xiao’s military strength is feared by the sages. Ji Zeyu’s Longxiang Army is growing stronger and stronger, and it is a weapon to check and balance the tiger and the army.However, Pang Xiao still didn't know how to constrain, and was still arrogant and arrogant.

Lian Shengjie, as a courtier of Beiji surrendering to Da Zhou, has long seen Pang Xiao not pleasing to his eyes.

Now that Pang Xiao, under his questioning, just said with a sullen face, "I will not be subject to orders from foreign troops," he was really proud to float.

"You have been proud of it for too long." Lian Shengjie laughed and said: "Brother, I advise you to stop, and now you have to explain to me, I can also give you some good words in the letter to the holy Sentence, if not, I’m afraid you don’t know how you died. Besides, why did you come to Dayan is not for me to ask, but the sage to ask.”

As Lian Shengjie said, he stood up with his arms on the table of the Eight Immortals, leaned over and listened, but his face was full of mockery, "Come on, you talk to me first."

Pang Xiao kept looking down with a smile, playing with the golden wine cup in his hand.

The tiger next to him was already full of anger with Lian Shengjie's proud face, and he wanted to rush to break his neck.

Seeing that Pang Xiao was still silent, Lian Shengjie leaned forward a little bit, and smiled proudly: "Why don't you say it? You said you have your own reason, but you are telling your truth. !"

"Pop!" With a crisp sound, Lian Shengjie unbelievably covered his red and swollen face, and stared at Pang Xiao blankly.

"What are you, what right do you have to listen to this king?" Pang Xiao stood up and looked down at Lian Shengjie's face with blue and white.

Lian Shengjie's wine was awakened, recalling what he had just mocked him, he covered his face and stepped back, as if he could escape Pang Xiao's attack range.

Seeing that he was too lazy to pay attention to him, Pang Xiao turned around and left the flower hall with Huzi.

Lian Shengjie covered his face and stared at Pang Xiao's back, screaming inwardly, "You, don't be crazy, one day you cry!"

And this scene in the house was clearly seen by the Honghusiqing and others who were peeping through the sewn door, and quietly reported it to the emperor.

The emperor was hugging the empress, sitting on the bed of Luohan with bright yellow mattresses next to the window of the imperial study room and making fun of him.

After hearing the words of Hongyusiqing, the queen first smiled coquettishly: "It seems that the loyal prince is nothing more than that."

The emperor was fed up with Pang Xiao's domineering, patted the queen's buttocks, and whispered a few words in her ear.

The queen reluctantly acted like a baby for a while, and saw that the emperor really wanted to let her leave, so she reluctantly led her to leave the royal study room.

The emperor smiled and watched the queen walk away. Only then did he condensed his expression and stood up and said: "So, the Emperor Zhou is jealous of Pang Zhixi."

"Weichen feels the same. Otherwise, the domineering temperament that Pang Zhixi has always been, will definitely not tolerate the repeated questioning of the king."

"Cut! I know that people who are mad when they are in power will not last long even if they are rich. How can they let others snoring on the side of the couch? The Emperor Zhou would have been unable to understand what he did and intended to suppress. Otherwise, what? How dare a person named Lian dare to be so bold in front of Pang Zhixi?"

"The emperor Shengming." Honghu Temple Qing nodded repeatedly.

The emperor waved away Honghesi Qing.

When there was no one on the left or right, the emperor looked gloomy and sat behind the black paulownia dragon book case.

Recalling that in the daytime, when he was polite to Pang Zhixi, so many people and courtiers were all in sight, the emperor felt regret.

Who knows that Pang Zhixi's position in Da Zhou has already been shaken?

If he had known this, he should have been tougher!Liang Pang Zhixi can't influence Zhou Di's thoughts now!

He would actually believe Pang Zhixi's threat of war?

What a mistake, a mistake!

In his anger, the emperor swept the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table to the ground.

The guards and servants outside the hall heard the voice and rushed in panic to protect the driver.Seeing that it was the emperor who had developed the dragon nature, he was slightly relieved, but everyone was silent and afraid to come close to persuade.

The emperor's temper has become increasingly irritable in recent days.You can't control it when you get angry.Last time, the chief eunuch of Bingbi could not persuade him, so he was pulled out and beaten twenty boards.

If it weren't for Bingbi's eunuch who had accumulated a lot of prestige and managed the relationship in advance, where is his life now?

When the emperor smashed everything he could smash, he let out a sigh of relief.

"Bring me the elixir offered by Liu Xiangu."

"Yes." The eunuch immediately went to take a delicate gold box, held a jet black pill in both hands.

The emperor swallowed with cold wine, and immediately felt very comfortable all over, and he became happy.

He laughed and said: "The Queen's recommended Liu Xiangu is very good. I told the Queen to let her reward her as she pleases, and get what she needs from my internal money."

"Yes. The slave and maid will go here." The big eunuch smiled and saluted, and whispered to the little servant to clean up the mess on the ground quietly.

The emperor thought for a while and said: "Also, you will deliver the decree tomorrow morning. The grace I gave to the Qin family is not false. Now that the Sun family has become a super-first-grade fate, the rewards that should be given cannot be less, the Qin family’s The plaque, Minger, wrote that you sent it to someone to make it, and also, set up an archway for the Sun family in front of the Qin's house. After you send the reward tomorrow morning, you will also go to the Qin's house and explain it."

"Slaves follow the order."
