Xiaoyao Xiaojunhou

Chapter 203
However, the palace steward had already specially told the generals who would welcome the guests, not to neglect this old beggar, as he was an honored guest.

That's why the old beggar, so slovenly and unconventional, approached Poyang Prince's Mansion with such arrogance.

Zhu Xiuyuan and his party had just taken half a step into the palace when they saw the palace steward coming out with a smile: "Oh, we are full of distinguished guests, Governor Dong, Zhu Sima, Li Changshi, and Gang Leader Hong!"

Zhu Xiuyuan, Dong Cheng and others bowed their hands in greeting, and after a short exchange of greetings, the steward of the palace said: "Everyone, please come with me, the prince has been waiting for you in the inner hall, please..."

"The housekeeper is too polite..."

Dong Cheng and others were polite and followed the palace steward to the inner hall.

After Dong Cheng and the others walked away, the guests and generals here all looked at them sideways.

and gathered together to point and point.

There are people who can make the palace steward come out to greet him in person... It's true that there are no people, but those are all famous people.

What was that just now?
Governor?

Sima?

Long history?

What kind of gang leader is there?
What kind of miscellaneous petty officials are these? !
King Poyang is the uncle of the current emperor and a first-grade prince!
King Poyang guarded the Jiangzhou camp and was responsible for the military defense of the three states along Poyang Lake. The emperor had always relied on him.

Although King Poyang was a prince stationed in local states and counties, his power in the court should not be underestimated.

Therefore, most of the people who came to the Poyang Palace to congratulate him on his birthday today were high-ranking officials of the imperial court, princes and generals stationed in various places, etc.

If any of these people are pulled out at random, I'm afraid that the governor or the like can only carry shoes for others!

However, the fact is that it is so fucked up that the palace steward, who can only carry shoes for others, such as the governor and other miscellaneous officials, actually came out to greet him in person...

Everyone looked sideways.

"You don't know, right? Those are Dong Governor and Zhu Sima of Jiangzhou! Do you still remember the plague more than half a month ago..."

Among the guests present, there were also those who knew the cause and effect. After their explanation, everyone finally understood.

That's it!

After everyone realized this, they couldn't help but feel a little jealous in their hearts.

How lucky were Dong Jishi and Zhu Sima to have climbed to the top of the Poyang Palace, and from then on they rose to the top step by step... They were really envious of others!

……

Let's say that the palace steward took Zhu Xiuyuan and others to the inner hall. On the way, the old beggar and Li Linzhou left the team and went to wait in the hall where the birthday banquet was held.

The two of them were not familiar with King Poyang, so there was no need to go to the inner hall to be an eyesore.

Zhu Xiuyuan and Dong Cheng followed the palace steward around for a long time before arriving at the inner hall.

"My lord!"

"My lord!"

Zhu Xiuyuan and Dong Cheng saw King Poyang at a glance and bowed their hands in greeting.

King Poyang is the birthday boy today, so he is not wearing armor, but is wearing casual clothes.

However, the majestic and domineering aura of the iron-blooded general spread everywhere, but it could not be concealed at all.

It's as breathtaking as a sharp sword.

"Hahaha..." King Poyang laughed loudly and waved his hands repeatedly, "Prince Dong and Sima Zhu are all our own people, so there is no need to be polite! Please get up quickly."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhu Xiuyuan and Dong Cheng replied in unison.

"Zhu Sima, I just talked about you, come..." King Poyang half-circled Zhu Xiuyuan's shoulders like an elder, and brought him to the rest of the people in the inner hall, "I will introduce you to you. …”

Zhu Xiuyuan was dragged away, leaving Dong Cheng standing there alone.

Dong Cheng was at a loss for a moment. He couldn't follow him, nor could he stay where he was...

But he is a proven old fox after all.He followed shamelessly.

Dong Cheng was an old man and saw that King Poyang treated Zhu Xiuyuan as his nephew. Although he "snubbed" him, he had no evil thoughts in his heart and was actually very happy.

Don’t worry about what Dong Cheng thinks.

King Poyang took Zhu Xiuyuan and started making introductions.

"This is King Zhenze. The entire Taihu Lake and the areas around Taihu Lake are under his jurisdiction. The gold and silver in King Zhenze's house have been piled up into mountains of gold. You have to fawn over him..."

The king of Poyang first pointed to a rich middle-aged man.

She looked about 50 to [-] years old, with a big belly, as if she had been pregnant for several months.

"Your Majesty, Zhu Xiuyuan, pay homage to the prince!" Zhu Xiuyuan bowed hurriedly.

"Blessings to Sima, my king's ears are getting calloused, haha, he is indeed a handsome young man, a man of extraordinary talent!"

King Zhenze has a very easy-going appearance.

He laughed and waved his hand with five thick fingers.

Zhu Xiuyuan's eyes were dazzled by the gold ring on his thick finger, and he hurriedly said humbly: "The prince is ridiculously complimentary, how can I, the lower official, be so virtuous..."

King Zhenze burst into a smile and laughed, very satisfied with Zhu Xiuyuan's humility.

Then, King Zhenze suddenly turned his head and stared at a young man beside him, his expression suddenly changed.

And he raised his foot and kicked the young man's butt.

He scolded: "Look at you, you are older than Zhu Sima Du, but you have accomplished nothing. You only know how to recite poems, write poems, and do nothing all day long... You really disgrace me!"

Every time King Zhenze said something, he would raise his foot and kick the young man's ass...

It seems that there is quite a rhythm.

It seems that King Zhenze does this kind of thing often.

The young man looked about seventeen or eighteen years old. He was dressed in a gorgeous gown, a square scarf on his head, and a folding fan stuck behind his collar, dressed as a scholar.

He is relatively thin, and his neck seems to be leaning forward, making him slightly defective.

However, his face is like a crown jewel, his clothes are gorgeous, and his bearing is extraordinary. If he could straighten his neck a little, he would be a handsome and charming young man.

It's a pity that the neck is slightly tilted forward, which affects the beauty a bit.

However, this can be regarded as a major characteristic of this person.

"Ouch...Father, please spare my life...Ouch...Father, please be gentle...Ouch...Father..."

The young man jumped and ran away, shouting all the way.

King Zhenze chased after him, with his huge general belly sticking out, and raised his foot to kick his butt...

What a treasured father and son!
King Zhenze is a prince, and he actually kicked his own son's ass on the spot...this?

As for that prince, thanks to Zhu Xiuyuan, he thought he was a man of extraordinary magnanimity... Being chased and beaten by King Zhenze like this, he must have been a naughty troublemaker...

With this pair of living treasures, father and son, the entire inner hall became chaotic...

Zhu Xiuyuan and Dong Cheng looked at this scene and couldn't help but be stunned.

……

"Brother Wang..." King Poyang felt a little headache, "Brother Wang, my nephew has not made any mistakes. Brother Wang, just let him go!"

The remaining people who had not yet been introduced by King Poyang also started to persuade him.

With so many people trying to persuade him, King Zhenze seemed to have calmed down.

He panted and pointed at his own son and cursed: "Run away. For the sake of your uncles, I will spare you for the time being. After you go, hehe..."
