Zhu Gaoyu's eyes flickered, how could the grudges and entanglements for so long be relieved at a banquet? Presumably, the purpose of the aristocratic family is definitely not as simple as the surface, there must be a backhand.

"Then let's join in the fun too."

After he finished speaking, he beckoned, and together with Shen Lian and others, he set off again mighty.

......

And on the other side.

The aristocratic family headed by the Bai family sat opposite the chieftain headed by the An family.

The table was full of delicious food and wine, but no one cared about it. It was obvious that they were here to attend the banquet, but everyone looked tense, as if they were about to go to the battlefield.

As the host, Bai Jingxi, the initiator of this banquet, laughed, but the smile did not reach his eyes. He raised the wine glass in his hand and said, "I toast everyone."

The aristocrats also picked up their wine glasses, but there was no movement from the toast.

Bai Jingxi's smile faded, and his face suddenly sank, "What do you mean? Are you afraid that I won't be able to poison me in the wine?"

"That's impossible to say. Who knows what means you will use."

"What do you mean by that! Our family master kindly invited you to a banquet, but you are so disrespectful, it's okay to have a stinky face from the beginning to the end, and say some yin and yang strange words, I really think we are afraid of you."

"Hey! It's like we're going to be scared. I've endured you for a long time, but the lion wants so many things, why don't you family go to grab it!"

The chieftain and the aristocratic clan already had deep grievances, but after a few words, they quarreled, and there were many people who were short-tempered and impulsive.

The strong smell of gunpowder suddenly filled the audience, both sides were fighting with each other, and their faces were not very good-looking.

Bai Jingxi is worthy of being an old fox. His expression remained unchanged, and he even had a smile on his face. He looked at Yang An, the leader of the toast, and said, "I'm a few years older than you, so I call you a brother."

"Brother Yang, what do you think of my proposal just now?"

Yang An thought of the conditions and requirements that Bai Jingxi just put forward, and sneered in his heart, "It's not very good."

If the chieftain really agrees, not only will he lose his majesty in front of the people, but he will not have a place for them in the future, so how can he continue to rule.

I'm afraid it won't be long before they will be framed into an empty shell by these aristocratic clans, with only the name of governance, and no actual power. All power is in the grasp of the aristocratic clan.

"How can there be such a beautiful thing in the world, I'm afraid that Your Excellency thinks too well. If these are the sincerity of your aristocratic family wanting to negotiate with us, I don't think it is necessary, and there is nothing to say next."

Bai Jingxi's eyes did not change, and his voice was faint: "According to what Brother Yang said, we can't talk about it. You must know that I have great sincerity."

"We cannot afford this sincerity."

"It's a pity—" Bai Jingxi sighed and threw the cup in his hand, "I originally wanted to talk to you guys, it would be best if there was no blood."

Yang An realized something was wrong and asked cautiously, "What do you want to do!"

The shattered cup was like a signal, and a series of soldiers broke in from the outside and surrounded Yang An and others, making them almost unable to fly.

"Reporting to the patriarch, we have all surrendered to the troops of the chieftain outside."

Hearing this sentence, Yang An's eyes were split.

"You did a good job." Bai Jingxi waved his hand and looked at Yang An with a proud look, "What else do you have to say next?"

People who see the toast here still don't understand.

"The banquet is not a good banquet, it really is a Hongmen banquet!"

Although they had taken precautions and brought men and horses before, there must have been fewer people on Bai Jingxi's side. Yang An guessed that Bai Jingxi and others would be restless and would make small moves, but he didn't expect them to suddenly take action.

"Well, are you going to fight against me next?"

"Bai Jingxi, you are so bold! We were appointed by the imperial court, so you are not afraid of the imperial court blaming you for doing this!"

Bai Jingxi showed a ruthless expression, no longer the kindness he was before, and finally showed his true face.

"What can the court do to us? The Emperor Tiangao is far away. When the court notices the matter here, you have already been resolved, and the boat is done. If you want to come to the court, you won't blame us too much."

It turned out that this was the idea. The chieftain was wiped out by the local aristocratic clan. In order to maintain the local security and peace, it was impossible for the imperial court to destroy the aristocratic clan in order to avenge them.

It has to be said that Bai Jingxi's slashing of wages is really ruthless.

Bai Jingxi looked down condescendingly, "I don't like to see blood, and I don't like to listen to the voices of fighting and killing. If you know each other, I can still save your life."

Yang An was extremely unwilling, and blamed him for being careless for the time being and being fooled by this old fox.

"Bai Jingxi, don't forget, His Royal Highness Prince Liang is pacifying the Japanese chaos in the southeastern coastal area at this time. If you are hit by him, do you think you still have your life?"

However, Bai Jingxi did not buy it.

"What can King Liang do, don't say that he is not here yet, even if he is here, what would a nine-year-old be afraid of!"

At the moment when these words landed, the door was pushed open from the outside.

Zhu Gaoyu looked at everyone with a half-smile, "Really?".

Chapter 208

The child who pushed in the door looked like a nine-year-old. He was dressed in a red python robe with four claws in the sea and river teeth. The dragon's eyes flashed with a strange look. Upon closer inspection, it was actually decorated with small pearls, and the entire dragon's body became more and more alive. It seems to be whizzing away in the next second.

Bai Jingxi, who was still complacent before, widened his eyes at this time.

At nine years old, and dressed like this, his identity is ready to be revealed.

Zhu Gaoyu's smile deepened. Seeing that no one was talking, he went straight to the main seat, "Say what you just said again."

Bai Jingxi hurriedly got up and gave up his seat, "Greetings to His Royal Highness Prince Liang, I didn't know that His Royal Highness was here, and that the ministers have lost their way. Please forgive me."

This old fox is obviously avoiding the topic just now. After all, if he admits it on the spot, he is afraid that he will peel off his skin if he doesn't die.

It was really hard to deal with. Seeing Bai Jingxi playing Tai Chi, Zhu Gaoyu was happy to accompany him through some tricks.

"His Royal Highness Prince Liang, you don't know that this group of noble families is too much, they actually—"

Before the people on the Tusi finished speaking, they were interrupted by Bai Jingxi, who showed a threatening look.

"Brother Yang, take care of your people, don't let them talk nonsense. I kindly invite you to the banquet, but I don't want you to splash me with dirty water in front of King Liang."

Yang An was silent for a moment, then shook his head calmly at the person beside him.

First of all, they didn't know the attitude of His Royal Highness Prince Liang. Even if His Royal Highness Prince Liang was on their side, what could a nine-year-old child do.

Even if they received the news, His Royal Highness Prince Liang was resourceful at a young age. If the rumors were wrong, none of them had contacted them, and they did not dare to put all the treasures on Zhu Gaoyu.

Zhu Gaoyu had a panoramic view of their eyes, and he didn't need to think about what Yang An was worried about. He said casually, "Your party is really lively ¨".

"This is a banquet specially set up by the minister in order to turn the war with the chieftain into jade and silk."

Really trying to coax a child who was his age, Zhu Gaoyu raised his eyebrows, "So that's how it is." He rolled his eyes and his voice became condensed.

"Then ask Patriarch Bai to explain to me, which host has so many soldiers at the banquet! Is this a treat or a prisoner?"

Zhu Gaoyu spoke loudly, and the Panlong on his chest was even more coveted, making that little face even more precious.

"This..." Bai Jingxi rolled his eyes, "Your Highness, please forgive me, because of the serious Japanese chaos along the southeast coast, I am worried about the safety of the chiefs, so I set up guards to ensure that the banquet can be held successfully."

I have to say that Jiang is still old and hot. With Bai Jingxi's mouth, black can be said to be white, and the people on the toast side suddenly showed a look of disdain.

"Patriarch Bai has a heart."

Zhu Gaoyu did not continue to ask questions, as if he really believed what he said.

"This king is here for the first time. There will be a banquet in a few days. I hope everyone can be there. Otherwise, I will go to the capital and report to the emperor to cure you of a sin of neglect."

He has a domineering look on his face, as if when a child goes to a certain place, he must be welcomed by everyone, so that he can reflect his noble identity, and even the emperor has come out to threaten.

Hearing such naive words, Yang An and the others became more and more disappointed. Sure enough, the rumors could not be believed. What kind of prodigy, with extraordinary talent, must be said by the group of people around the emperor in order to flatter.

Who does not know that His Royal Highness King Liang is the emperor's most beloved son.

Bai Jingxi showed a bit of contempt, but he hid it well, "Please rest assured, His Royal Highness Prince Liang, I will be here on time."

Zhu Gaoyu came and went quickly, leaving a sentence and leaving in a hurry, as if it was really just a passing scene, while Yang An and others took advantage of this opportunity and followed behind.

Bai Jingxi watched them leave with gloomy eyes.

The people around them were extremely unwilling to say: "The patriarch, do we have to pass up this great opportunity, and finally wipe out these chieftains in one go. If we let them go now, it will not be so easy next time."

Bai Jingxi shook his head, "Now that His Royal Highness Prince Liang is still here, we don't want to act rashly. If it spreads to the capital, we won't get much benefit."

Bai Jingxi still knew how many pounds and taels of the aristocratic clan. Although they were the emperors here, if they were disturbed by the sage, they would not be enough to see in front of the Ming army.

"Then His Royal Highness Prince Liang is here? I heard from the capital that Liang Wangzhi is very close to a monster, and he has already made a lot of achievements at a young age."

"Huangkou child." Thinking of Zhu Gaoyu's performance just now, Bai Jingxi obviously didn't take it to heart, and his tone was a little disdainful, "...I thought it was so powerful, I want to exaggerate, it's just a little boy, just coax it."

"When Queen Liang is sent away, it will not be too late for me to clean up the Tusi group."

His thoughts were the same as Yang An's, he thought it was King Liang or someone close to the emperor, and the news released was exaggerated.

It is with such contempt in it that Bai Jingxi didn't even bother to investigate. If he knew what Zhu Gaoyu had done along the way, and the war against Japanese pirates not long ago, he would definitely regret his careless underestimation of the enemy.

"If the Tusi group said something they shouldn't say in front of King Liang, wouldn't we be in danger?"

Bai Jingxi snorted softly, "Yang An is a smart person, he knows what to say and what not to say, and even if he does, it's useless without evidence."

At this time, Zhu Gaoyu, the chieftain and others had already walked out of the door, and Yang An bowed to him and saluted, "Thank you, His Royal Highness King Liang."

Although the person in front of him may not know why he thanked him, if (Zhao Wang Zhao) was not King Liang, perhaps they have now become prisoners of the aristocratic clan, and it is not known whether their lives can be saved.

"I took you out of the world, how are you going to thank me?"

Yang An suddenly raised his head like an electric shock, and met Zhu Gaoyu's smiling face, still with that innocent expression, but the dark look in his eyes was like an unfathomable well of water, making it impossible to see the end at a glance.

He was dumbfounded and said, "His Royal Highness Prince Liang, you—"

"You really think I'm a child, and that old fox Bai Jingxi said a few words and I believed it."

King Liang is only nine years old now, but he is not a child, but Yang An did not say this, and Zhu Gaoyu's transformation made him still in shock and did not recover.

On the other hand, the others couldn't hold back and said angrily, "Since Your Highness knows that Bai Jingxi has ulterior motives, why not punish him on the spot!" Lu.

Chapter 209

"Condemned on the spot?"

Zhu Gaoyu looked at him like he was looking at an idiot, "What if Bai Jingxi is in a hurry and the dog jumps over the wall, what if you give us a fish and a dead net?"
