Chapter 133 Invitation

"What? The Third Highness didn't wait for His Majesty's summons?" In the private room of the restaurant, Han Xu and Wu Xiuxian sat opposite each other, with a table of food and two bottles of wine.

Wu Xiuxian said with a smile: "I suddenly figured out that my father didn't even have time to go to Concubine Ling, so how could he summon me to wait."

After speaking, he raised his glass and drank, and then said: "I think at this time, my father will definitely not see other people."

Han Xu nodded, and the prince left. It was obvious that he was demoted. How could a person like Emperor Wu not know the thoughts of his sons? Now I am afraid that no one will see him.

"Han Xu, to be honest, I can't see through you more and more." After a few glasses of wine, Wu Xiuxian started talking more.

"I'm just a playboy. I can't see through anything. Your Highness is too worried." Han Xu replied with a smile.

"Dandy? If I'm not afraid of offending you, I did think so before." Wu Xiuxian drank another glass of wine and said, "But have you ever seen any dandy who dared to offend a prince in the palace?"

"It was because he bullied others too much. I was also angry and impulsive for a moment."

Wu Xiuxian's expression was subtle and he was noncommittal to Han Xu's remarks.

"Han Xu, what do you think about the prince's affairs?"

Han Xu looked surprised and said, "How can a playboy like me have any opinion on such a big matter? I'm afraid that Your Highness is asking the wrong person."

"Let's talk about it. There's no need to be restrained. It's just you and me here. You can speak freely." Wu Xiuxian said, "Wine is intoxicating. Anything you say while drunk is harmless. No one will take it seriously."

His hint could be said to be very obvious, but Han Xu still said: "I don't understand anything about officialdom, and you also know, Your Highness, that I only like to flirt with beauties and write poems and paintings when I have nothing to do."

Wu Xiuxian said: "Han Xu, it seems you still don't regard me as a friend."

He suddenly looked at Han Xu seriously and said in what he thought was the most sincere tone: "Han Xu, to be honest, I did have the idea of ​​using you in the past. I wanted to gain Concubine Ling's favor through you, and I wanted Concubine Ling to be favored by you." Please say some kind words for me in front of my father.”

"But now, I really want to be friends with you."

"The Third Highness thinks highly of me." Han Xu said lightly. He didn't know why Wu Xiuxian was suddenly so honest with him.

Seeing that Han Xu was unable to make progress, Wu Xiuxian was a little helpless.

At first, he regarded Han Xu as a waste that could be controlled in the palm of his hand, but later through each detail, he discovered that Han Xu was not as simple as he seemed.

Even the legendary sword demon in white and the Buddhist master who appeared on that day of spring hunting can be vaguely related to him.

The two masters first appeared when Han Luoling was in danger. Considering the close relationship between Han Xu and Han Luoling, it makes sense to say that it was arranged by Han Xu.

Although most people judged that the two masters took action because of Han Luoling, no one had any evidence.

Since there is no evidence, why can't it be because of Han Xu?

These are just speculations. What puzzled Wu Xiuxian the most was Lin Feng.

Every extraordinary master has his own dignity, but Lin Feng is willing to be a groom next to Han Xu. This is too unreasonable.

The only explanation is that Han Xu deceived everyone with his image of a playboy and good-for-nothing.

When Wu Xiuxian realized this, he deliberately observed Han Xu's every move, and found that no matter who he faced, he seemed to be able to maintain a detached and calm attitude.

It's the same when facing extraordinary masters, it's the same when facing the prince, and it's the same when facing the Martial Emperor.

Therefore, Wu Xiuxian concluded that Han Xu must have some unknown secret. No matter what he was hiding, he was able to hide it for so long in the royal city under the close surveillance of countless informants. His temperament alone was absolutely impossible. Very within reach.

If you can have such a person by your side, it will definitely be a huge help.

Therefore, Wu Xiuxian's view of Han Xu gradually changed.

Wu Xiuxian came to the window with a wine glass. Through the window, he could see the bustling night of the royal city.

"Han Xu, I often feel that you and I have many similarities."

"You may not know that among the princes, I was originally the least popular. Ever since I was a child, my father has never given me the slightest care."

"My mother-in-law was originally just a palace maid, and my natal family was an ordinary person with no power, and I was just a product of my father's whim. As far back as I can remember, I have been accompanied by the rolling eyes of my brothers and my father's indifference. "

"People only see my achievements today, but they don't know how much hard work I have put in to get to this point over the years."

Wu Xiuxian was sincere and spoke eloquently, revealing to Han Xu the past that was deeply buried in his heart.

Maybe he wanted to win over Han Xu through this method, but I have to say that it did resonate with Han Xu.

The two of them had similar childhoods, but perhaps the difference was that Wu Xiuxian always had a mother, while Han Xu had never seen his mother since he was born.

Han Xu responded to him in a rare way: "Your Highness, there is no need to feel sad. If you want to be noble in front of others, you have to suffer behind the scenes."

"If you want to be noble in front of others, you have to suffer behind the scenes." Wu Xiuxian savored Han Xu's words carefully. In just a few words, he expressed all his sadness.

He couldn't help but sigh: "Well said, well said."

Suddenly, Wu Xiuxian turned around and said without warning: "Han Xu, come and help me."

After speaking, he looked at Han Xu expectantly, waiting for his answer.

This invitation is full of extraordinary meaning, which means that Wu Xiuxian really wants to treat Han Xu as his confidant, create a future with him, and fight for the world.

Now that the crown prince has lost power, the only ones who can accomplish things among the remaining princes are the third prince and the fifth prince.

In comparison, the power of the third prince is greater.

In this case, as long as Han Xu nods, he is likely to become a powerful minister with great power in the court, or even second only to one person.

I think no one can refuse such an invitation.

However, after a brief moment of daze, Han Xu still shook his head.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. Your Highness has many talents under his command, and there is no shortage of Han Xu, a playboy."

Hearing Han Xu's answer, Wu Xiuxian's eyes showed obvious disappointment, but he was also a man of extraordinary character, and he quickly returned to normal.

"It's a pity. Although you have no intention of doing this, if you change your mind one day in the future, I welcome you at any time."

"Thank you very much." Han Xu smiled and raised his glass, clinking it with Wu Xiuxian. The two smiled and toasted, and then no one mentioned the previous topic again.

Finally, Wu Xiuxian said to Han Xu: "I heard that Yingying is seriously injured and has not woken up yet. If you need it, just let me know. I still have a lot of elixirs in my house, which should be helpful."

"Your Highness has taken good care of me enough." Han Xu said, "As for the healing elixir, I have been to Jubao Tower. They will have an auction in a few days, and there will be what I need."

"Well, let's see you at the auction."

"Why, Your Highness is going to participate too?"

"Of course, it's not just me. Jubao Tower sent out invitations yesterday. I'm afraid many young dignitaries in the royal city will participate at that time."

"Is it so grand?" Han Xu felt that this auction might not be simple.
