Chapter 265 His Royal Highness the King of War of Dongling
Behind the man, eight riders followed closely.
The uniformly brown horses and black robes, the uniform pace and speed, and the well-trained momentum are intimidating.
The formation of guards stationed outside the city gate and hundreds of officials waiting was obviously unexpected. The man in white robe who was galloping in the wind saw this scene from a distance. His pupils narrowed slightly and he held the reins in both hands to slow down his galloping speed. Eight riders were riding behind him. It slowed down for a while.
Even at the critical moment, he did not get even half a step past the white horse due to inertia.
The man on the white horse at the head was about twenty-five or six years old. He had slender eyebrows and phoenix eyes. He was as handsome as fire. He had accumulated a strong bearing and pressure because he had led troops all year round.
Even though that face is stunningly beautiful, you can't ignore the overwhelming feeling of oppression around you.
The white horse soon arrived.
"Are you all waiting for me?" The man reined in his horse and stopped, raising his eyebrows as he looked at the tired faces in front of him. His voice was leisurely and leisurely, "You all don't look very good. Could it be that you haven't slept all night? Have you been waiting here early?”
Chu Tiankuo composed himself: "Your Excellency, are you from Dongling?"
The man in white robe nodded: "My king's general Zuo should have sent the news to the palace."
Chu Tiankuo's voice was dry: "So, you are Dongling's most brave and skilled general, His Royal Highness the War King?"
The man in white robe glanced at him and didn't take it to heart: "This king is indeed Xuanyuan Rongzhan."
Chu Tiankuo's face turned pale, and the last hope in his heart was finally shattered.
"What?" Xuanyuan Rongzhan narrowed his eyes, "Your Excellency doesn't seem to welcome me?"
Chu Tiankuo was startled and quickly raised a smile: "How could it be? I... I have only admired the name of the War King for a long time, and I have always admired him. Suddenly I was too excited when I saw him, so I lost my composure. I still look forward to the War King. Forgive me."
Xuanyuan Rongzhan nodded lightly: "Let's take what you said as true."
Chu Tiankuo's smile was a little unnatural.
"What did you call yourself just now?" Xuanyuan Rongzhan raised his eyebrows, "My king? Are you the Prince of Xiqi?"
Chu Tiankuo nodded quickly: "I am the current second prince, titled Prince Xuan, and the legitimate son of the queen."
"There is no need to introduce him in such detail. I have no interest in you." It was as if he was not his legitimate son.
Chu Tiankuo's smile suddenly froze: "..."
Xuanyuan Rongzhan ignored him and turned to look at the Xiqi officials standing in a row in front of him. They all looked pale and tired. The dark shadows were particularly obvious under their eyes. Mosquitoes were staring at them all over their faces. They looked as funny as they could be. How funny.
Xuanyuan Rongzhan's eyes were a little subtle: "Did you really wait all night?"
King Zhenbei said: "Donngling is an honored guest, so we should wait all night."
"It's because I didn't think carefully." Xuanyuan Rongzhan said with excellent demeanor, "I and the soldiers originally arrived in the eastern suburbs last night."
King Zhenbei paused.
"However, I thought that my sons had a hard time traveling, so I set up a tent in the eastern suburbs to rest for one night." Xuanyuan Rongzhan's tone was particularly sincere, "If I had known that you were waiting here, I would have come to meet you last night. , instead of making you wait so long.”
After all, the eastern suburbs are only thirty miles away.
Xiqi officials: "..." Is it necessary to say this?
Are you really sorry, or are you deliberately poking their guts?
They worked hard here for half a day yesterday afternoon and fed mosquitoes all night, but the Tanglin envoy slept happily all night in the eastern suburbs, only thirty miles away?
If I had known they were going to greet them, wouldn't I have been able to meet them earlier?
All the adults were in extremely complicated moods and turned to look at King Xuan and Uncle Qin in unison.
Uncle Qin clearly proposed to greet the envoy last night, but King Xuan did not agree, so they spent the night feeding mosquitoes here, exhausted both physically and mentally.
Chu Tiankuo was also annoyed. He was also the one who fed the mosquitoes last night, okay?
Automatically ignoring the glances from everyone, Chu Tiankuo adjusted his mood and quickly put on a warm smile: "How about we go into the city now?"
"Don't be in a hurry." Xuanyuan Rongzhan turned around and pointed, "This king came to Xiqi with 10,000 cavalry. Now I don't know how to arrange these soldiers?"
"Let's go directly to the city." The maroon horse came slowly, with a middle-aged man with a handsome and noble appearance sitting on the horse's back.
If you just look at his appearance, the man seems to be in his thirties, but the demeanor settled between his eyebrows and eyes is steady, deep and unfathomable, making him look like he is in his forties.
It was impossible to see through his true age for a moment.
Chu Tiankuo said: "This is..."
Xuanyuan Rongzhan said in a calm tone: "King Rong introduced me that this person is the most respected and trusted by our emperor in Dongling, the most powerful first-class minister of the current dynasty, Mr. Xie Jinxie."
"That's what the King of War said." Xie Jin smiled slightly, "The person the Emperor trusts most is obviously you, how can you not be a bad old man like me?"
You may not believe it, but a man who is clearly no longer young smiles like this, but he can still catch the fleeting glory that has passed in the corner of his eyebrows, making people unable to help but feel lost for a moment.
Bad old man?
The Xiqi official had a strange expression.
If such a handsome and profound man turns out to be an old man, will those of them who have already stepped into the coffin become old monsters?
However, this question is obviously not important.
The important thing is that Dongling not only has a war king, but also a chief assistant?
Isn’t this battle a bit big?
Is it necessary to dispatch a chief assistant when traveling to other countries?
