Chapter 108 Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet (End)
boom!
Zhu Huang's forehead hit the ground heavily with a loud sound.
Then, Zhu Huang was about to stand up, but he seemed to be feeling uncomfortable somewhere. When he stood up, he looked a little embarrassed and there was a struggle on his face.
Xia Fengxiang looked at Zhu Huang and smiled, but said nothing. He just glanced at the empress dowager.
The Queen Mother no longer had the smile she always had on her face, and her eyes showed confusion.
His eyes turned to Yang Guofu again.
Yang Guofu was seen with an angry look on his face and clenched fists, as if he had a huge hatred with Zhu Huang.
Xia Fengxiang remained calm, but suddenly thought of something and looked at Su Changan.
However, he found that Su Changan was staring at him blatantly. He immediately turned his head away, cursed him in his heart, and didn't bother to pay attention to Su Changan.
But he stole another glance and saw that Su Changan looked stunned, like a fool.
And at this time.
Earlier, when a poem was recited in "When is the Moon Bright", Lord Wu, who had stood up to praise him, stood up and walked out of the low table, clasped his fists and bowed to Zhu Huang: "Wu Xingba of the Cangjia Beidao Camp greets the general!"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Huang turned his head and looked over: "Oh, he's wearing a purple robe. Incredible, he must be a higher official than me."
Wu Xingba smiled helplessly: "My father passed away last year, and I inherited the title of marquis, thanks to my ancestors. But to the general, I am Wu Xingba of the Back Blade Camp."
Zhu Huang frowned. The general had left. He was going to burn incense. Then he looked at the three missing fingers on Wu Xingba's right hand. He remembered that when he followed him to fight against the northern barbarians, this guy rushed into the enemy camp alone to kill the enemy general and was chopped off.
At this time, another woman in red official uniform came out and clasped her fists towards Zhu Huang: "Cangjia Archer Liang Yue, I pay my respects to the general!"
Zhu Huang turned his head and looked over, curling his lips: "I can tell you're not married just by looking at you, right?"
Liang Yue, who looked average, smiled helplessly: "Yes."
Zhu Huang shook his head, too lazy to say more. He had advised Liang Yue many times to get married and have a baby, but Liang Yue was not happy about it and there was nothing he could do.
now
I saw military generals standing up one after another.
"Zhao Quan, the vanguard, pays homage to the general."
"Ran Yuanliang from the Iron Bone Camp pays homage to the general!"
"Liu Da Neng of the Three Thousand Camps of the Vanguard, I pay my respects to the great general!"
"Cang Jia Anding Fang, I pay my respects to the general!"
……
Excluding the talented men and beautiful women, there were over a hundred officials in the hall, a small half of whom were military generals. At that moment, more than a dozen generals stood up and saluted Zhu Huang with their fists.
He said he had no current official position, only the army he had belonged to in the past.
Zhu Huang greeted them one by one and looked at the boys and girls, some wearing green official uniforms, some wearing red and purple.
Although most people wore green robes, they all came from humble backgrounds.
However, since I was called to attend the palace banquet today, I will have to wear red or even purple sooner or later.
There is only one purple one, Wu Xingba, but he is okay. His military achievements deserve the purple robe.
Zhu Huang smiled and thought that each of them was quite promising.
Walking towards the front of the hall, Zhu Huang greeted each person he respected, such as the Duke of Qi, Mr. Gao, and so on.
He also greeted scholars, such as Mr. Yao, Zhao Shi, and Zhu Huang, to whom he showed great respect.
But after looking at Xun Kuang, Zhu Huang simply said "bad luck" and walked away.
Xun Kuang was depressed. He felt that he and Zhu Huang had had a good relationship as they had drunk together several times.
And at this time.
The young man next to General Meng Qin stood up and clasped his fists towards Zhu Huang: "Great Halberd Warrior Meng Wu, I greet the General!"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Huang immediately cursed, "Get lost! Damn it! Are you ruining the fun? The Great Halberd Soldier has already disappeared. What's the point of calling him a Great Halberd Soldier?"
As he spoke, Zhu Huang looked at Meng Qin, clasped his fists and said, "I pay my respects to the Grand Marshal."
But Meng Qin didn't say anything, but Meng Wu said: "The general and I are still here, the halberd soldiers are not all dead."
After that, the angular and somewhat stern young man clasped his fists again and said, "Great Halberd Soldier Meng Wu, I pay my respects to the Great General!"
Zhu Huang glanced and said, "Get away from me!"
After that, he looked at Meng Qin and said, "You are not angry for scolding your son, are you?"
Meng Qin rolled his eyes at Zhu Huang, but looked at his legs and feet and said, "You've been in Shu for three years, and your legs are broken?"
Zhu Huang chuckled: "Look at what you said, isn't your skin rubbed from riding all the way here? And you're still enduring this."
Meng Qin shook his head helplessly after hearing this.
Xia Fengxiang understood what Zhu Huang said to him, so he said, "Brother, you have worked hard all the way, so I will not let you go in vain. You don't have to tell me this specifically."
Zhu Huang chuckled and turned to look at the empress.
But when he turned around and glanced at where Su Changan was, he felt a little dazzled because he was so damn handsome.
But Zhu Huang didn't dare to look any longer, because he knew who Su Changan was.
Zhu Huang looked at the empress, clasped his fists and bowed, then said, "I haven't seen you for more than three years. Seeing that Your Majesty is still as imposing, talented, and powerful as ever, I feel relieved."
Xia Fengxiang smiled helplessly: "Brother, what dirty talk are you talking about? You used these words to Father before, and you still use the same words to me."
Zhu Huang suddenly said seriously: "Doesn't this mean that you are exactly like the late emperor, both of you are respectable emperors?"
Zhu Huang then asked, "Is that the one?"
Xia Fengxiang knew what Zhu Huang was talking about and nodded.
Zhu Huang ignored the empress dowager who had been looking at him and looked directly at Su Changan, but just as he was about to bow, he looked at the empress.
Because Zhu Huang thought that His Majesty had not announced it yet.
Xia Fengxiang nodded and said, "I know everything."
Hearing this, Zhu Huang stopped wasting time and looked at Su Changan, clasped his fists and bowed: "Zhu Huang greets Miss Changan."
As he spoke, he looked up at Su Changan and added, "When you really sit in that position, I will kowtow to you again."
Su Changan bowed in return.
However, looking at Zhu Huang, Su Changan roughly guessed the other party's identity.
I don't know the details, but he should be the so-called "mad dog" who seemed to be guarding the Fourth Prince under house arrest in Shu, but was actually watching the King of Shu.
Xia Fengxiang never told him about this person in detail, but sometimes when he mentioned him, he would say that he had been taken everywhere to play since he was a child and that he was like a brother to him.
Su Changan looked at Zhu Huang, not knowing what to say. But after thinking for a while, he realized that Zhu Huang had been traveling all the way and probably hadn't eaten anything, so he asked, "General, you must be hungry. Would you like to eat something?"
Su Changan said this.
Everyone around was stunned.
The people around were stunned because they didn't expect Su Changan to say such a thing.
Zhu Huang was stunned.
It was because he suddenly remembered the first time he met the late Queen Mother. She looked at him and said, "You are so thin, how can you be a general? Eat more."
After coming to his senses, Zhu Huang looked at Su Changan and felt that he was inexplicably much closer. He nodded immediately and said, "I'm hungry."
As he said this, he looked at Xia Fengxiang.
Xia Fengxiang nodded.
Zhu Huang immediately walked over to Su Changan.
Su Linhan stood up and made room for the table. Zhu Huang glanced at Su Linhan and thought for a moment: "The bookworm in Su Zimu's family?"
Su Linhan was stunned.
Su Zimu was even more stunned.
But Su Linhan still said: "It's me, Uncle Zhu."
Zhu Huang nodded: "Not bad, I didn't become a fool."
Su Linhan was ashamed.
Su Zimu wanted to say something, but gave up.
Su Changan glanced at Su Linhan with a smile, and brought some of the dishes that Xia Xia and the others had just brought to Zhu Huang's table. He helped Su Linhan and said, "He's quite smart and not so bookish."
Zhu Huang was flattered at once. He bowed quickly and took it with both hands.
Su Changan was helpless, but didn't say anything.
but
Zhu Huang sat down and started eating.
The people in the hall looked at him.
No.
To be precise, from the moment Zhu Huang came out, many people's hearts were filled with undercurrents, and they began to quickly think about how this person came back.
The smarter ones already knew that it was His Majesty who summoned them.
The stupid ones, however, looked at their masters, such as the Grand Tutor, the Queen Mother, the Eighth Prince and others.
Those who were only loyal to Daxia, such as the old ministers, or those who had always been loyal to the empress lowered their heads, and no one knew what they were thinking.
but.
anyway.
