The banquet started, and the style was still normal.

In the middle of the meal, there was a general who was careless and intoxicated and got drunk. From the moment he started dancing for everyone to cheer up, the whole banquet changed drastically.

While other generals were hesitating to dance and sing, Xiao Jinan was already taking the lead to respond to that general.

Many people looked at Princess Jinyang's expression calmly. They were relieved when they saw that her expression was as normal and she didn't seem to be angry.

Since the princess agreed, they could dance, so soon, those who were hesitant stood up and joined in.

"Mom, I heard that the people from the Huns are good at dancing?"

Jin Yan suddenly said this.

Princess Jinyang's heart moved slightly, and she turned to look at Xiao Ji who was drinking and eating meat. "General, your daughter is asking you, are the people from the Huns good at dancing?"

Xiao Ji put down the meat in his hands, wiped his hands clean with a cloth, and then stretched out his arms to hug Jin Yan, "They do sing and dance together, but that kind of dance is too wild and rough, and people in the Central Plains don't like it very much. "

Jin Yan: "But it's very lively, right?"

She was young and had never been to places outside the North, not even Chang'an. She had only seen the surrendered Hu people in the city of Beidi, but those people were busy learning farming and weaving and had no extra time. go dance.

Xiao Ji listened and recalled the scene when he led people to surround him last time. Those people gathered together to eat meat, drink wine, sing and dance, and couldn't help but smile. "It was indeed very lively."

When the cavalry led by him rushed forward, the Huns, who claimed to be more ruthless and murderous than tigers and wolves, were frightened one by one. They did not even dare to resist and fled in all directions. Herds of sheep, horses, and people mingled together, and many people were killed. They were trampled to death by their own horses and sheep.

How could you say that scene was not lively?

Jin Yan suddenly sighed quietly.

Xiao Ji listened and found it amusing. He cupped her little face and stared at her for a long time, "You are a little baby. You have no worries about food and clothing. Why are you sighing?"

Xiao Buyi and Xiao Quji both smiled fondly.

My sister acts like a little adult from time to time.

They have long been used to it.

Jin Yan pursed her lips and said to Xiao Ji, "Father, I also want to watch the excitement."

Xiao Ji was stunned for a moment, then laughed again.

My daughter is like me!

Xiao Ji was extremely proud.

The minister sitting below heard this and couldn't help but ask him, "General, is something good happening when you laugh so heartily?"

Xiao Ji then repeated what Jin Yan had just said.

When everyone heard this, they all laughed.

Several people dancing stopped.

Xiao Jinan ran directly to the front and grabbed a meat-cutting knife from the table closest to him. He gestured with the knife in the air a few times and said to Jin Yan with firm eyes: "Sister, wait until I grow up." If you are older, I will capture the leaders of the Huns, the three generations of Great Chanyu’s ancestors, and dance for you!”

As soon as these words came out, the whole room was shocked, and everyone was shocked and speechless by his bold words.

Jin Yan's eyes were bright and he nodded at Xiao Jin'an, "Okay, I'll remember it. Third brother keeps his word!"

Xiao Jinan patted his chest and said: "Not only the Xiongnu, but also the Wusun of the Yuezhi, Qiuci Loulan, I will capture them all and let them dance together!"

Others came to their senses and began to praise Xiao Jinan.

At such a young age, he has such courage and momentum, and can say such heroic words, which shows his character!

And the third most incompetent young master in the Northland Palace has such courage and such bold words, how can the other young masters in the palace be just ordinary people?

The compliments from everyone continued like running water, and they didn't even have the same meaning. Even though Xiao Jinan was thick-skinned and confident, he was blushing at this moment. But he was not stage frightened. He made a nonsense statement, "I am drunk, I want to go back and sit down." Then he confidently returned to Princess Jinyang.

He knelt down in a nondescript manner, with one leg bent and swaying. But at this moment, no one stood up and accused him of being unruly, and no one accused him of being ineffective.

Before the banquet was about to end, a close servant came up and said that the messenger wanted to see him.

A sneer appeared on Xiao Ji's lips, and then he motioned to the attendant to bring the envoy in.

He also wanted to feed Jin Yan something to eat, but Jin Yan shook his head and refused, so Xiao Ji had to give up with a look of regret.

My daughter is so cute, her two soft little cheeks jiggle when she eats, making people want to pinch her.

He only pinched it twice before the messenger came in.

Princess Jin'an signaled Xiao Ji to hand Jin Yan to her, but Xiao Ji ignored it and instead looked at the envoy, "You want to see me, general?"

The envoy bowed down and saluted, then stood up and said: "Returning to the general, your majesty said that the general conquered the Huns in the north and beheaded more than 70,000 heads of the Huns. He made great contributions to protecting the people on the border and safeguarding the majesty of the Great Xia. Therefore, your majesty specially wishes to express his gratitude. The general is granted the title of Marquis of the Northern Territory, with a settlement of 2,000 households. The general is asked to go to Chang'an on a day to receive the title!"

As soon as these words came out, the whole hall was silent.

Beidihou?

There is already a Northland King in the Northland, and he is the biological father of the general, Xiao Sui. The entire Northland was originally the fiefdom of the Northland King, and now the general is granted the title of Marquis of the Northland. Where does the food come from?

Or Northland?

The silence of everyone was like a mountain. Looking at the uncertain faces of everyone, the envoy couldn't help but feel a little unsure.

These wolf soldiers in the North have been fighting against the Huns all year round, and each of them has had countless blood on their hands, and how many lives have been lost.

These people kill without blinking an eye.

Just in case they get carried away...

Just as the cold sweat on the messenger's forehead ran down his face, a very soft voice rang, "Congratulations, Father."

Xiao Ji's cold face melted in an instant. He ignored the messenger with trembling legs in the lobby, but looked down at his daughter in his arms, "What do you want to congratulate father?"

Jin Yan: "Some people said before that my father has been fighting for so many years and has not been able to get a title. Although the name of General Zhengbei sounds good, it is not as good as the real title. They said that my father is not as good as those in the court, so I congratulate you." Father, now my father is also a prince!"

Xiao Ji fell silent.

The officials and generals were also silent.

Although this sounds funny, only those of them who have died countless times on the battlefield can understand the sadness of this sentence.

Their general had fought so many victorious battles and made countless achievements, but when it came time to reward him for his merits, someone stood up in the court and said that the general had killed the prisoners, that the general had protected his subordinates, and that the general had protected his subordinates. The general is arrogant and does not take the court messengers seriously...

All in all, a general is not worthy of becoming a marquis.

Just because his name is Xiao Ji.

Just when everyone felt sad and unhappy for the general they were loyal to, a harsh laughter sounded in the hall.

Everyone's eyes immediately focused on the messenger.

Although the messenger had closed his mouth and resumed his feigned respect, no one could mishear that the laughter came from his mouth.

Before everyone could get angry, a familiar voice sounded from above, "You laughed for no reason in front of the Marquis of Beidi who was just conferred by Your Majesty. Are you dissatisfied with the Marquis of Beidi? Or are you dissatisfied with His Majesty? Or is there someone in the court who wants to embarrass the Marquis of Beidi? , to sow discord between the temple and the Northland?"

The messenger turned pale and knelt down with a plop.

Just as he was about to defend himself, he heard the handsome young lady above speak again.

"Someone, pull this evil-intentioned thief down and cook him."
