Chapter 124: Sitting on the Mountain and Watching the Tiger Fight
At the same time, the King of Jin's Mansion.
King Zhao Yi of Jin was also eating and drinking with a group of confidants and officials who defected to him.
However, their conversations are mostly about romance and seldom involving the government.
When the wine was over, a confidant of Jin came hurriedly and whispered a few times in Zhao Yi's ear.
Zhao Yi sneered and slapped his palms a few times.
So, the noise in the hall gradually stopped, and everyone's eyes turned to Zhao Yi.
"Have you ever heard of Yang Xu?"
Zhao Yiyin had a glass of wine on the table in front of him, and his eyes slowly glanced at the people below.
"Is it Yang Xu from the Yang Family Restaurant?"
"The one from the Yang family perfume shop?"
"Poetry God Yang Xu?"
"Little God of Wealth Yang Xu?"
...
Although there are many people in the world called Yang Xu, the ones that can be remembered and mentioned by King Jin are definitely not ordinary people.
Therefore, the first thing that everyone below thought of was naturally the famous Yang Xu.
Zhao Yi said: "Yes, it's what you are talking about Yang Xu! The King of Japan has set up a banquet and sent him an invitation. It's a pity that my little temple cannot accommodate his big Buddha!"
One of his subordinates said: "The King of Jin means... did Yang Xu reject your invitation?"
"No! He did not refuse, but he was not invited."
Zhao Yi's expression was faint, but his tone gradually became colder, and he said, "He went to my third brother."
"He actually surrendered to the King of Qin?"
An official suddenly stood up and said angrily: "I have heard that Yang Xu had an affair with the King of Qin! It seems that this is true today!"
Another official said: "Yang Xu is talented and famous and can make money. The King of Qin will be like a tiger with wings!"
A confidant under the command of the King of Jin whispered: "The prince is mediocre and not worth worrying about, but the King of Qin is quite talented and has the help of Yang Xu, but he must be guarded!"
Zhao Yi looked up and looked at the top of the hall and said: "Who said it was not... It's a pity! Then Yang Xu looked down on me, so what can I do?"
"Yang Xu's son is just a white-clothed man. Killing him is only a matter of thinking about the King of Jin!"
An official disagrees with it.
Zhao Yi smiled and shook his head and said, "Although he is a white-robed man, he is famous in the capital, and thousands of people are paying attention to it! Moreover, Yang Xu also left a name for his father's father! Killing him will inevitably cause a sensation in the capital. What should he do if his father ordered a investigation?"
"If King Jin wants Yang Xu to die, I am willing to serve the King of Jin! I will kill Yang Xu with my own hands. Your Majesty will investigate and I will take responsibility for it!"
A confidant of Jin King slapped his chest hard and said.
"Commander Li is loyal and I am very pleased! But... we don't have to take action on this matter, someone is ready to do it!"
An official's eyes rolled and he whispered: "Prince?"
Zhao Yi nodded and chuckled, "Yang Xu surrendered to my second brother, which poses the greatest threat to the prince. So when the prince gets the news, he will definitely be more anxious than us! The news I have received is that the dead soldiers raised by the prince's mansion are ready to take action!"
A white-faced and long bearded official twisted his beard and said, "So, let's sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight?"
Zhao Yi shook his head: "Although the prince raises many dead soldiers, there are not many real masters. And there are a few masters around Yang Xu to protect him. In addition, my second brother may have sent some guards to secretly protect Yang Xu. So if the prince wants to kill Yang Xu, it is still a matter of whether he can succeed."
The white-faced and long-bearded official said, "If you can't kill Yang Xu, then Yang Xu will still be a threat to the prince and King Jin!"
Zhao Yi laughed, picked up the maid's glass filled with wine, drank it all, and said leisurely: "I have a master in my hands... If the prince cannot kill him, then I will secretly help him."
※※※
Compared with the Prince's Mansion and the King of Jin's Mansion, the Qin's Mansion seems even more lively.
The Qin King's army, including Yang Xu, was drunk and drunk, and everyone was a little drunk.
The two princesses, Zhao Duobao and Zhao Duofu, also drank a few drinks, and their cheeks were slightly dizzy, which made them even more charming.
"Brother, it's boring to eat and drink. Are there anything else to cheer you up!"
Zhao Duobao asked.
The King of Qin smiled and said, "Aren't there singing girls and dancing girls just now? Why don't you like them?"
Zhao Duobao curled his lips: "It's boring... it's all what you men like to watch."
The King of Qin said: "Then how do you think you can help you? Or should I call the swordsman in the mansion to dance swords for everyone?"
Zhao Duobao shook his head: "I don't like it!"
King Qin knew that this girl had always been difficult to serve, so he said helplessly: "Then what tricks do you want to play?"
Zhao Duobao glanced at Yang Xu, then looked at his sister Zhao Duofu, his eyes turned, and said, "My sister Princess Yifu is known as the best beauty in the world. Let's do this, you can write a poem on the spot to praise my sister's appearance. Which one is better, I will ask my third brother to reward you! How about it?"
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone looked at each other.
Princess Yifu Zhao Duofu has a peerless appearance and is known as the "first beauty of the royal family". Although Zhao Duobao's "first beauty in the world" is suspected of being exaggerated, looking at the entire Zhao State, Princess Yifu's appearance is definitely first-class.
Although everyone knows this, it is really a bit abrupt to write poems to praise her beauty in front of Princess Yifu. If Princess Yifu gets angry, she will not escape the crime of disrespect.
Everyone at the scene was either under the command of the King of Qin or the officials in the court. Although they were all a little drunk at the moment, how could they dare to respond to Zhao Duobao's proposal? What poems should be written in front of Princess Yifu?
Zhao Duofu blushed and said in a low voice: "Duobao, don't mess around!"
Zhao Duobao laughed, leaned down, and whispered a few words in Zhao Duofu's ear.
After hearing this, Zhao Duofu's face turned redder and he quickly glanced at Yang Xu and stopped talking.
The King of Qin saw something from the expressions and expressions of the two sisters, and said with a smile: "Duobao, you are clearly favoring Yang Xu! Now, who doesn't know that Yang Xu is known as the God of Poetry? With him here, how dare others show their ugliness?"
The other officials breathed a sigh of relief and nodded to say yes.
Zhao Duobao snorted and said, "It's a pity that some of you are still arrogant and talented. I'm already scared before I even started comparing?"
Her eyes slowly glanced around, and finally fell on Yang Xu, pointing at Yang Xu and said, "Hey, Yang Xu, these people think that their talents are not as talented as you, so you can write a poem. If you write well, I will let my third brother reward you!"
Although Yang Xu drank a lot, he was far from drunk. No one else dared to abdicate the princess. How dare he?
So he held the wine pot in one hand and the wine glass in the other hand, pouring and drinking by himself. He just thought that Zhao Duobao had never heard of what he said.
