Chapter 70 Night Banquet [Part 2](1/4)
"I didn't expect that the grassland royal court would become like this..."
The female friend sighed.
"Why do you feel a little regretful when you hear your tone?"
Chu Kuo asked.
The female friend should have hated Wang Ting to the core, but the feeling just now was not in line with her identity and will, which made Chu Kuo very surprised. How could a thing of hatred still feel regretful and sighing? If he saw that the place where he hated became such a devastating appearance, he should have a drink and stewed meat and celebrate with his friends.
But the female friend shook her head without explaining it.
She is also a woman. Even though she has hatred for this place, she can't help but sigh at the moment when she saw a prosperous place with her own eyes.
She would not let Chu Kuo know about her daughter's temperament, and he would inevitably laugh at her again.
The grassland royal court has great power. Although the orders of the Wolf King Mingyao are unified, if there is no war on weekdays, each tribe has almost no restrictions except for supplying cattle, sheep and other livestock and other daily necessities on time. This is very different from the five kingdoms.
When he walked back from the back wall to the front door, the waiter had disappeared and probably had already gone in for the banquet. Chu Kuo and his female friend walked to the door but were stopped by the person on duty. Fortunately, they were also "entered to the court", so there was no difficulty in communicating.
"What caravan do you two belong to? You probably aren't the one who "sents the court" in my Swallowing Moon City?"
The person on duty asked.
"We are the new guys in Qin Ziwei's teahouse."
Chu Kuo said.
He didn't want to take out Sifeng's token to scare people, and he felt that doing so would be useless and would not show his ability.
If you don’t use the token in your hand, you may be considered a fool. Chu Kuo didn’t want to use this token at all. But now he used the right to get things done and passed it to Sifeng, and he would inevitably be considered a person who is afraid of things. Now he is equivalent to dependents under someone else’s roof. Although there are many restrictions, he cannot lose his dignity.
It is very different to suggest Qin Ziwei. He is indeed acquainted with him, so it is okay to mention it like this. As for whether the person on the other side will give face, it depends on Qin Ziwei's own influence.
He did not use favors, and the person on duty would definitely send them to him. In this way, he was taking the initiative and the opposite side became passive.
Sure enough, when he heard the name Qin Ziwei, the people on duty immediately changed their faces... They were the "entering" people who depended on the second tribe, but Qin Ziwei was the confidant of the third tribe Sifeng, and the subtleties were self-evident.
"Why, the three masters of the Duke of the Ministry of Justice are talking about the fact that all the people who "sent to the court" and caravans in the Duanyue City can come to participate. Don't we count?"
Chu Kuo said loudly.
The sound was loud but it was transmitted straight from the doorway to it.
He did this on purpose, and the banquet of the three ministers could not be a reputation for keeping others from thousands of miles away.
Just when the person on duty was in a dilemma, someone walked out of the room and whispered to him, the person on duty politely welcomed Chu Kuo and his female friend in.
There was a screen wall behind the door, with a "Tiger Roaring Mountain" carved on it. Chu Kuo looked at this screen wall but laughed out loud. It was clearly the grassland royal court and the second master of the Tengyue tribe, but his private houses were all built in the style of the kingdom.
This made him think of the steps at the gate of Dingxi King City, which were all carved with the image of a prairie wolf rider, in order to let them be exposed to the sun and rain and trampled on them. However, here, the private houses of the ministry were exactly the same as those in the kingdom.
Originally, Chu Kuo didn't understand their thoughts very much, but now he seemed to have a little clue in his heart. The wolf riding carved on the Dingxi King City may have the intention of letting them be trampled by thousands of people, but he had another understanding.
The human and animal nature of the grassland have grown up through the hardships of wind and rain since childhood. This is their habit and their own wildness. To deal with a person, it is to make him feel uncomfortable, breathing smoothly, and habits are not connected. If the King of Dingxi is really just for trampling, it is better to carve them in the room and kill the free nature of the grassland people.
Letting ten thousand people trampled is a warning, which not only warns the grassland royal court to undergo training and destruction at all times, and to maintain its momentum as always, but also warns the people in the city that the grassland royal court is now being trampled under its feet, but it is not certain whether it will be the opposite in the future.
Rather than saying that he is a love man, he is more a loving person. Although the two places are opposite, their heroic, comfortable, unruly and free temperament happens to be the most lacking thing in the royal city, which is strict and unruly, without any mistakes.
People always have a heart of learning and awe for what they lack.
The decorations here with different styles are probably the same as those of Dingxi Royal City. They are opposite but complementary. The kingdom has fewer wind and sun-drenched environments, so they are carefully arranged in the house by the open-minded grassland royal court.
It is also a place to arrange banquets, which shows their importance to the kingdom.
The two sides intertwined on the battlefield and had victory or defeat, but in these aspects, the five kingdoms stabilized the grassland royal court.
"Are you going to have a meal?"
The female friend asked.
"You go eat, I'll do something first."
Chu Kuo waved his hand and said.
After saying that, he was ready to leave quickly.
The female friend thought for a while, but finally couldn't help but think. She glanced around, grabbed his wrist, and quickly said caution. Chu Kuo smiled slightly, without saying anything, and thousands of words were hidden in his smile. He knew she should understand, and then he looked around and walked hurriedly.
Along the way, he avoided the crowds coming and going in the Second Duke Mansion Mansion. He walked through several gardens. He saw a bunch of elite wolf cavalry standing in an atrium. The formation was not much better than Si Feng's guards who had seen in Qin Ziwei's teahouse before. Chu Kuo knew that this place should be the place of the Second Duke Man, so he walked up and showed the token that Si Feng gave him.
A man who looked like an officer came out of the wolf cavalry. He took the token and flipped it back and forth and looked at it several times, signaling Chu Kuo to wait in place. He walked into the house with the token. After a while, the wolf cavalry officer shouted a grassland language. The wolf cavalry soldiers standing in front of Chu Kuo immediately separated and gave up a road for Chu Kuo to pass.
When he walked to the door, the officer made a request gesture, but asked Chu Kuo for the long sword he left behind. Of course, Chu Kuo did not agree, and he now represents the three Gong Sifeng. If he removes the sword here, it would be equivalent to Sifeng's submission to these two Gong Sifeng.
During the stalemate, the wolf cavalry officer became a little impatient and reached out to hold the hilt of his knife. However, Chu Kuo was calm and there was a slight smile on his face.
Finally, a heavy sound came from the house.
After hearing this, the wolf cavalry officer let go of the hand holding the hilt, turned to make a love gesture, and greeted Chu Kuo in.
When he walked to the inner room, Chu Kuo saw an old man sitting on a middle chair, holding a book in his hand, reading carefully with his eyes narrowed. On the table in front of him was the token of Si Feng that Chu Kuo had just handed to the wolf cavalry officer.
"What's the matter with me?
The second master asked.
He could see that Chu Kuo was the one who "entered to the court", so he spoke to him Wang Yu dialect. However, his Wang Yu dialect did not have Si Feng's standards, and he had a strong grassland accent. Fortunately, his speaking speed was not fast, so Chu Kuo could understand it.
Before the wolf cavalry officer left, Chu Kuo said nothing. The second master also saw the clues, waved his hand, shut him back, and then put down the book in his hand and looked at Chu Kuo.
"What did Sifeng ask you to do?"
The second master asked again.
"What do you think?"
Chu Kuo asked back.
He actually pulled open the chair opposite him and sat down.
This scene really scared the second master. He thought Chu Kuo was a "going to the court" who came to run errands and passed messages. Although he was in a good mood, it was common for countless people to come and go in the city of Tunyue, and there were people he didn't know.
But no one is so arrogant in front of him. Chu Kuo's performance only shows that he is definitely not as simple as passing a message. Fortunately, the second son of the second son is mature and steadfast. Although his heart is turbulent, his expression is not revealed at all.
People who have experienced strong winds and waves will not hide immediately when they see the wind and waves, but will see how big the wind is and how high the waves are.
"He wanted to ask you why Qin Ziwei was not invited to come to this banquet."
Chu Kuo said.
Even though he was now sitting opposite the second master, he still did not make up his mind whether to kill him. If the reason given by the second master could satisfy him, it would not be impossible to go to the front to have enough wine and eat and fill it up after the greetings.
"The three masters of the Dangyue Department, the legitimate son of the old master, came to question me for a lowly person who "got to court"?"
The two men slapped the table and said in extreme anger.
"Tell him, if you have any dissatisfaction, come to me personally! There is no need to send someone to pass the message!"
After saying that, he picked up the book on the table and read it.
However, Chu Kuo knew that he might not be able to read a single word now, and he did this just to pretend.
"Since I came with the token, it means I can be fully represented. The second ministry still has something to say, so there is no need to be angry and pretend to be angry."
Chu Kuo said calmly.
This second-class man is definitely not a rude and irritable temper in front of him. Being able to become a second-class man already shows that he should have his own uniqueness. He raised his momentum in a few words and put the conversation between the two on the third-class man. If Chu Kuo, the messenger, was not very much, he would probably be said in the future that the third-class man told him like this.
Chu Kuo didn't accept his tricks, so he immediately took out the title of the Three Dukes and simply made this happen.
"This is how Sifeng told you?"
The second master opened the book in his hand slightly and stared at Chu Kuo and asked.
"I guess the token of Master Duke won't leave his body easily, right?"
Chu Kuo asked back.
"Okay! I might as well say it clearly, but you should go back and tell him what I said without saying a word!"
The second master said.
Chu Kuo nodded after hearing this.
"The Wolf King Mingyao is already very dissatisfied with the Moon Swallowing Division, especially the incident of the border a few months ago, which even broke the peace between my Grassland King Court and the Dingxi King Realm. And all of this is because Sifeng always cared about the private grudges of the old master's death in battle back then, which brought great losses to our Moon Swallowing Division and even the entire Grassland King Court. I also acted according to the king's order. If Sifeng had any questions, it would be better to go to the Wolf King's tent to ask thoroughly."
The second master said.
After listening to it, Chu Kuo pondered for a moment and said:
"He won't go."
"Hmph... he doesn't have the courage to measure himself!"
The second master said with great disdain.
"It's not that you dare to go or not, but that there's no need to go."
Chu Kuo shook his head and said.
From this, the second master heard a little different meaning, leaned back and looked at Chu Kuo very alertly.
"What the hell are you here to do?"
To be continued...
