Chapter 69 The Royal Palace Banquet
"Ah hmm!"
Zou Heng sat up from the bed, stretched beautifully, turned his head and looked outside, it was already bright.
After quickly getting dressed, Zou Heng opened the door and walked out. The sun had already risen outside. He looked up at the sky. There were no clouds in the sky. It would be a very good weather today.
"I haven't slept so comfortably for a long time!" Zou Heng said to himself.
Ever since he joined Nioh's team, he has never woken up so late as today. Of course, not counting the days when he was injured and comatose.
He slept very comfortably this time. The burden on his body was relieved, and he felt completely relaxed. There was no pressure, so he could naturally sleep more soundly.
At this point, Zou Heng felt that he must have missed breakfast, so he simply moved his hands and feet in the yard for a while, and then planned to go out to have a meal later, and take a look at the prosperity of King Yu's capital.
When I entered the city yesterday, I just took a quick look at it and didn't take a good look at it. I just happened to be walking around today, so my trip to the royal capital was not in vain.
Zou Heng was thinking this, but he didn't expect a servant to come and tell him that King Ren invited him to have breakfast with him.
The King Ren invited him, so Zou Heng naturally did not refuse, so he went with the servant. When he arrived, he saw the King Ren and His Highness sitting at the table.
"I have met His Highness Renwang!" Zou Heng stepped forward, smiled and saluted.
"Master, you're polite, did you have a good rest last night?" King Ren heard Zou Heng's voice and raised his head to look at him and asked.
"I slept well, thank you for your concern, Your Majesty Renwang!" Zou Heng nodded and said.
The two of them had just said hello, and behind Zou Heng, Zhang Xiaonian, who looked sleepy, also came over. Unlike Zou Heng, who was now full of energy, Zhang Xiaonian had his tiredness clearly written on his face, clearly telling others that he had not rested.
good.
Seeing that both of them had arrived, Nioh immediately asked them to sit down and enjoy breakfast together.
All three of them got up late today. Zou Heng rested for a while because he had nothing to do and slept very comfortably. Niwang and Zhang Xiaonian had a lot of thoughts on their minds and couldn't sleep for a while.
Naturally, it was impossible for the three of them to eat together without saying anything, so they started chatting while eating. Because Nioh had just returned to the capital, it was very important what to do next, so everyone chatted next.
The main content is about what Nioh should do next.
It can also be seen from this point that King Ni regards Zou Heng and Zhang Xiaonian as his people, and he somewhat wants them to advise him.
In this regard, even if Zhang Xiaonian wants to show off, he cannot express his opinions easily. He must be more reliable when giving out ideas. If he talks nonsense, it will not be called expressing himself, but will lower himself.
status in the eyes of others.
Zhang Xiaonian did not speak easily, and Zou Heng was somewhat hesitant. After all, he was not really a Renwang. His next plan was actually to leave the royal capital, walk around, and improve his cultivation in order to learn from
Learn more interesting techniques.
But after hesitating for a moment, Zou Heng still spoke. No matter whether he wanted to join Niou or not, for the time being, he still lived with Niou, eating and living with others, so he should make some suggestions.
"His Royal Highness Nioh has just returned to the royal capital. I think it should not be too high-profile, but others must know that you are back, so what should be done next must be done safely."
"If His Highness Nioh has elders other than the King of the Kingdom, you can visit him during this period. Firstly, through these elders, others can know that His Highness Nioh is back. Secondly, he can also contact some helpers to let His Highness Niou.
There won’t be many people available for you in a short time!”
After Zou Heng finished speaking, King Ren immediately nodded, "The Master's words are in line with my wishes. Although my mother's natal family is not a prominent family, it can only be regarded as a small family in this royal capital, but
There are still some people, and there are a few uncles here, so we should go and visit!"
Niou was quite satisfied with Zou Heng. Apart from his low cultivation level, he was obviously a talent who could stand on his own with a little polishing. He had seen his opponent's performance along the way and really wanted to truly
He recruited Zou Heng under his command.
However, Zou Heng's attitude has always been unclear along the way. He neither directly rejected his solicitation nor agreed. King Ren felt that Zou Heng should also be testing him, and a good minister should be more cautious when choosing his master.
After breakfast, a servant brought tea, and the three of them continued their chat while sipping the tea.
"I don't know if the two mages have any arrangements today. If you want to go out, please come back early, because later, my father will hold a banquet in the palace. It can be regarded as a blessing for the king. I also want to thank you all for your journey.
It's hard work escorting, the two mages must participate!"
While drinking tea, Nioh suddenly thought of business and immediately spoke to the two of them.
"Have a banquet in the palace!"
When Zou Heng heard King Ni's words, he subconsciously wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he still didn't speak. After all, King Ni had already said that they must participate, so there was nothing more to say.
Moreover, Zou Heng is also somewhat interested in the leader of Yu State. He wants to see what the leader of Yu State looks like. Going to have a meal can satisfy his curiosity, so it's just a matter of going there.
went.
Unlike Zou Heng, Zhang Xiaonian was very excited after hearing the news. There was a banquet in the palace. This treatment was not something ordinary people could receive. He didn't expect that he had just arrived in the capital and could enjoy such a banquet.
The treatment made him very happy.
He had not planned to go out originally, but now he was planning to go out. He wanted to get himself some decent clothes so that he would not feel rude when attending the banquet in the evening.
After talking about this matter, Nioh seemed to have nothing else to say, and then everyone separated.
Zou Heng originally wanted to go out, but after they separated, he walked directly outside the courtyard.
After walking out of the door, it didn't take long for Zou Heng to hear the noisy sounds on the street, including those selling goods, bargaining, talking and laughing. The sounds were all mixed together, making it difficult to hear clearly what they were saying.
, but you can feel a lively hustle and bustle.
In this lively street, Zou Heng easily merged into the crowd and became an inconspicuous part of it. Then he started wandering along the street, looking at the goods on both sides and looking at them.
I will pay attention to the people in the crowd from time to time.
After walking through a street, Zou Heng couldn't help but sigh in his heart. After all, it is a king's capital, and it is indeed a place of outstanding people. As he walked along the street just now, he saw many extraordinary men and women. These people are here.
He is more conspicuous among the crowd, obviously different from ordinary ordinary people.
The large and small stalls on both sides of the road sell more exquisite things. Zou Heng also found a few warlocks with low cultivation among the people setting up stalls. The things they sold were more interesting, and they had specialized techniques.
There are interesting toys made, medicines that are very effective, and some ingenious things, such as beautiful glass mirrors.
In addition to these stalls, among the shops on both sides, Zou Heng also saw a shop specializing in the warlock business. There was only a mark on the plaque hanging at the door, and there was no name of the shop. But often such shops are in the background.
It is very deep, and there may be more than one warlock standing behind it.
After walking through several streets, Zou Heng bought some tempting-looking snacks and ate them while walking.
By purchasing these things, Zou Heng discovered a shortcoming of the royal capital, that is, the prices here are really high. When he bought the same snacks in other cities in Yu State, the price was about half cheaper than here, but as a
In a royal capital, it is understandable that consumption is higher.
After staying out until the afternoon, Zou Heng returned to King Ni's house, met with King Ni and others, and prepared to go to the palace for a banquet together.
When the three of them met, Zou Heng couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth slightly when he saw what Zhang Xiaonian was wearing.
It had only been half a day since we last met, and this guy had changed into more gorgeous clothes. There was nothing wrong with the clothes, but the problem was that the clothes didn't match him. The originally good clothes made him feel a little uncomfortable.
It's neither fish nor fowl, and there's an indescribable awkwardness about it.
Zou Heng originally wanted to persuade him to change his clothes, but before he could speak, Zhang Xiaonian came to him proudly, walked around in front of him and said like a child asking for praise.
"Master Zou, my clothes look good. I bought them specially today to go to the palace for a banquet!"
Seeing his appearance, Zou Heng had no intention of persuading him to change. He could only nod silently and praise him against his will.
Niwang also didn't say anything. Apart from looking a little awkward when Zhang Xiaonian was dressed like this, there really wasn't anything wrong with him. On the contrary, it seemed that he paid more attention to tonight's banquet. He didn't have much to say, so he had to let him go.
.
It was getting late, and since Zou Heng was back, there was no need to wait for anyone anymore. The three of them took the young highness with them and prepared to go to the palace for the banquet.
Before leaving the house, Zhang Xiaonian glanced at the three of them, then at His Highness, and said with some surprise.
"Well, why don't we go with the princess?"
As soon as he said these words, he immediately wanted to slap himself in the face. Why did he say this at this time?
Sure enough, as soon as he heard his words, the smile on Niou's face became a little unnatural. He looked back at the yard behind him, paused for a moment, and then spoke.
