Chapter 344 Chapter 374
When Leng Yungui and Yan Xie came to the main hall together, the banquet had already begun.

The high-ranking officials and nobles on the seat saw the two talking and laughing, and they already knew what kind of relationship they were.

Leng Yungui, as the protagonist of the banquet, naturally wouldn't be said anything, smiled at Xiao Xie, and went to his seat.

Yan Xie bowed to the emperor who was sitting on the throne: "I am late, please punish me, Your Majesty."

The emperor smiled and waved his hands: "Yesterday's great victory, the barbarians have sent envoys to sue for peace, Aiqing returned from a great victory, how can there be punishment?"

Hearing this, Yan Xie smiled gently: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

In this way, Yan Xie went straight to Leng Yungui's side, accompanied by the hot eyes of countless people, and sat down.

Leng Yungui lowered his head slightly, and looked at Yan Xie with a smile: "Ah Xie is indeed very powerful."

Yan Xie blushed again, but not because of Leng Yungui's words, but because of Leng Yungui's hand under the table, which had already quietly held Yan Xie...

Others didn't know what the two of them were doing under the table, they just thought they were close.

In addition, the emperor also showed great optimism towards Yan Xie, and a group of ministers who had shown affection to King Li immediately turned against him.

In fact, Leng Yungui's status in the court was almost the same as that of Li Wang. The reason why he was attached to Li Wang before was actually because Li Wang had something that Leng Yungui did not have - military power.

But now, Jian Xie and Leng Yungui are on good terms, and they are the number one general, plus they have the military strength specially bestowed by the emperor, in terms of military power, they have actually surpassed King Li.

So under such circumstances, Leng Yungui naturally became their first choice again.

Therefore, during the banquet, many ministers rushed to congratulate Leng Yungui, and even praised Leng Yungui's ability, which made the emperor very happy.

Yan Xie is drinking tea alone, please keep silent, and look at Li Wang who is sitting opposite from time to time.

King Li should have sensed the minister's defection, but his smile remained the same, looking relaxed and at ease.

Yan Xie looked at it for a while, frowned slightly, and pulled Leng Yungui's sleeve like a little wife.

"Prince Li seems to be planning something, something big."

Yan Xie was familiar with military books, and he could read through every move and look in people's minds, but the appearance of Li Wang at this time gave him a feeling that he had to be careful.

Leng Yungui had been in the palace for a long time, and he had a strong ability to perceive words and emotions. He looked at King Li and summoned Qingfeng.

"Is there anything unusual about being away from the palace recently?"

Qingfeng was a little confused: "Recently, I saw that the servants in Prince Li's residence are all the same as usual, so it's not strange..."

Naturally, there is no fool in the royal family, and it is natural that nothing can be seen on the surface, but their servants are different.

If the master is planning something, as a servant, he will know something, and the servants happen to be civilians, so it is easy to find out and see something.

Leng Yungui listened, and continued to chat with some ministers and descendants of noble families with a light smile, and gently shook Xiao Xie's wrist with the hand placed under the table, which was regarded as a response.

Jian Xie took a sip of tea absently: what went wrong?

After a while, a eunuch came up with small steps and knelt in front of the hall: "Your Majesty, the envoy has arrived."

The emperor just responded lightly: "Didn't I say that the envoys should be settled first?"

The eunuch's voice was crisp and trembling: "But the envoy just found out that there is a banquet in the palace, and he insisted on attending together..."

As soon as the little eunuch finished speaking, Yan Xie suddenly opened his eyes wide: Envoy... By the way, it is an envoy!
