Chapter 10 tit for tat
"Your Highness, I'm late to come down, I hope to forgive you!" When I came to the prince, Zhao An bowed with a smile.
In theory, if the prince comes to hold a banquet, the prince will definitely feel that the person who comes to the late will disrespect him and will be a little angry. However, the prince did not look at all angry at this time. Instead, a look of joy flashed in his eyes. He smiled and stood up and patted Zhao An on the shoulder: "It's okay, Zhao An, you are busy with your business, it's nothing to come late. Sit, we have just started the banquet."
"Thank you, Prince." Zhao An took a seat, looked at Zhongli opposite him, and nodded with a smile.
Zhongli nodded and returned the gift, glanced at the prince, and thought deeply inside.
The prince was not only not displeased, but was very happy. What was this? There must be something unspeakable between these two people!
Thinking in his heart, Zhongli picked up the wine glass and greeted the prince: "Your Highness, I'll give you a glass!"
Toasting at a banquet is polite, either from younger generations or people with low status or from people with high status except for guests and hosts.
Zhongli's move was to suppress Zhao An. They were the sons of the left and right prime ministers. Except for the prince, the prince, they respected their identities and gave them the first to toast. The meaning of the meaning is intriguing!
The prince was slightly stunned, looked at Zhao An, chuckled and raised his glass, "Let's go together, just have a good time."
“Yes, yes, together, together!”
"Yes, come on, let's respect the prince!"
"Come on, let's all give me a cup of honor to the prince!"
Everyone stood up and picked up their wine glasses toast the prince.
Sure enough, there is a problem!
Zhongli stood up with a smile, but he was convinced that there was something wrong with the prince and Zhao An.
If there is no problem, whether you are myself or Zhao An toast first, as the prince, he will definitely not refuse. After all, the position of left prime minister and right prime minister is the same. It is said that it is the same whether you are myself or Zhao An toast first.
At this time, the prince did this, on the surface, so that everyone would not be restrained and raised their glasses together, but in fact, it was taking care of Zhao An's face, which made Zhongli more sure of his thoughts.
Everyone raised their glasses and drank the wine and sat down again, and began to communicate with each other in a low voice.
A banquet is full of joy and the guests are all happy!
After the banquet, a maid took down the leftovers and replaced them with fresh fruits and mellow fruit stews.
"Next, everyone will watch the singing and dancing!" the prince said with a smile.
The servant next to him turned around and walked down the top floor.
Dingdeng!
After a while, a group of musicians and dancers arrived at the top floor.
The top floor wine table is designed to be placed vertically on both sides and left, leaving a space in the middle. The musician stood in the open space at the entrance of the stairs, while the dancers came to the middle of the two rows of long tables.
Didida...
The music sounded, and the dancers danced gracefully.
"Hey, look at the leader dancer in front, have you seen it?" A person next to Zhongli whispered to his companion.
The companion glanced at the leading dancer and nodded gently and said, "I saw it, what's wrong?"
"Today is the birthday of the second prince and grandfather. She should have been to attend the birthday party, but she didn't expect to appear here." The person who spoke first continued.
The companion was stunned for a moment, glanced at the prince, and sighed: "The prince is so handsome. Can even snatch the dancer at the birthday party of the second prince and grandfather?"
Zhongli looked up at the prince, frowned slightly, turned his head and looked at the leading dancer carefully.
Although the prince and the second prince were not born to the same mother, there was something wrong with this move. It seems that the prince was intending to target the second prince!
"Prince, this leader's dance skills are superb and his dance posture is rare!"
"Yes! This woman's dancing skills are extraordinary, and she was considered an eye-opener today!"
"Compare my dancer in the house with this girl, I really want to drive all the dancer in the house away!"
"If this dancer can come, he must be impressed by the charm of the prince!"
Everyone praised the dance moves of the leading dancer.
Prince Lang smiled and said, "Haha! Come on, come on, let's continue drinking."
The prince picked up the fruit brew in front of him and looked around.
Everyone raised their glasses and drank the fruit brew in the cup in one gulp.
After drinking the fruit sauce, Zhongli glanced at the person he had just met, with a sarcastic look in his eyes.
The leading dancer did dance well, but it has not yet reached the level of amazement for everyone. Everyone praised him so much that he was able to snatch the dancer of the second prince’s grandfather’s birthday. However, this matter cannot be explained explicitly, so he expressed his mood in this way.
After the dance music ended, the dancers left the stage. Zhongli glanced at the dancer who led the dancer and speculated in his heart that this incident might cause some dispute.
"Young Master Shan seems to be very concerned about the leading dancer! Could it be that he has some thoughts about that woman?" A slightly sarcastic voice sounded, and everyone looked at Zhongli one after another.
Zhongli looked up and Chen Jin looked at him sarcastically, knowing that Chen Jin was trying to make things difficult for him.
"Everyone knows my situation. Because I cannot practice, I practice some soft and soft moves that can cultivate my body and nature. When I watch the dance this time, I feel that I can go one step further, so I glanced at the dancer more." Zhongli spoke softly.
"This dancer's dance is really eye-catching!"
"Yes, it's still a big face in the Prince's Palace. I can invite this dancer to dance for us today!"
"Don't put gilds on your face, they are here to dance to His Royal Highness!"
"That's right, you don't have that face yet."
Everyone took the opportunity to compliment the prince again.
The prince looked at Zhongli with deep thought and smiled softly.
"Young Master Lu turned out to practice soft and soft moves!" Chen Jin said with a sudden understanding: "Yes, Young Master Lu cannot practice Taoism, that is, he can practice some soft and soft moves that are not far from the dancer's skills."
Everyone was stunned. Chen Jin said this, but he implicitly mocked Zhongli and the dancer, and immediately turned to look at Zhongli.
"Chen Jin, do you want to try my soft moves that are comparable to dancers' skills?
Zhongli didn't say much, nor did he look at Chen Jin, but just sipped a little wine and spoke calmly.
Everyone looked at Zhongli in surprise.
Although Chen Jin is arrogant and domineering, he is also arrogant and lustful, but he is also in power. It is well known that Zhongli cannot practice. Everyone thought that Zhongli would retort, but they did not expect that he would directly invite the battle. Isn’t this a humiliation?
"We are here today just to communicate with each other so as not to meet each other." The prince glanced at Zhongli, turned his eyes, and waved his hand with a chuckling.
Everyone suddenly realized that yes, today the prince was holding a banquet. How could a fight between the son of the right prime minister and the son of the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel? So that's it!
Chen Jin also thought of this when he heard this, and a sarcastic look flashed in his eyes. Zhongli, Zhongli, do you think I can’t deal with you if the prince holds a banquet today? Since you have made such a request yourself, I must satisfy you!
"Your Highness, this time everyone gathers for exchanges. Although martial arts are not as good as the laws of the great way, they are also exchanges. I hope your Highness will allow me to discuss with Mr. Lu, and I will act as a way to help the prince and everyone." Chen Jin stood up and bowed to the prince and said.
"This..." the prince hesitated for a moment, turned to look at Zhongli.
"Yes, Prince, let Mr. Lu discuss with Mr. Chen. I also want to see how Mr. Lu's soft moves are. If it works, I also want to learn it."
Princess Qingling's eyes rolled, remembering what Zhongli did on the street and the ridicule he had at the banquet. She looked at Zhongli with a gloomy face, turned her head and bowed to the prince:
The prince glanced at Princess Qingling, turned his head and looked at Zhongli again with a embarrassed look.
Seeing that Zhongli had never spoken, Chen Jin sarcastically said, "What's wrong? Mr. Lu made a bold statement, but now he is timid?"
"Qizzy? That's not."
Zhongli glanced at Chen Jin, turned around and bowed to the prince, "Please be sure of the prince."
"This... OK!" the prince nodded with embarrassment.
Everyone suddenly became interested and looked at Zhongli with joking eyes, feeling that Zhongli was forced to do so, so they could only agree. This was to shoot themselves in the foot!
Chen Jin walked between the two rows of long tables and looked at Zhongli coldly.
