There were many guests in the royal palace, and famous scholars from all over the territory of Prince Zuo sent people to send gifts.

Chen Xuan brought Zuo Yezi and two guests who came from afar to the side hall of the royal palace. Chang Shi Jian and Wu You were from the martial arts world, so naturally they were not qualified to drink with a king and a prince in the same hall, but just sat with many small gentry officials.

Chen Xuan and Zuo Yezi went directly to the main hall and sat down after the case in front.

At this time, the magnificent main hall was brightly lit, and more than a dozen tables were divided into two rows, all sitting were high-ranking officials from the Northern Qi Dynasty and several generals from the Left Army.

Prince Jiang Sui sat above and vowed not to break Suzhou or remove his armor. At this time, he was still wearing golden armor and his long hair was scattered, which was quite a bit of a heroic spirit as a veteran on the battlefield.

In the middle of the hall, an envoy sent by the monarch of the Northern Qi Dynasty was reciting the congratulatory message written by the emperor.

Qi Guohai and He Jian, two warriors with some status, sat next to the desk behind.

Qi Guohai was in his early forties and was the chief coach of the Northern Qi Imperial Boxing Gym. He was in his year of fighting and was one of the best masters in the capital of Northern Qi. Seeing Zuo Yezi coming, he spoke:

"Yezi, why did you come here?"

Qi Guohai and Zuo Qingqiu are of the same generation, and they are considered elders. They have given some advice to Zuo Yezi. Zuo Yezi is more respectful and nods slightly:

"I just went to see two people from the martial arts world with Lord Chen, saying that there was a good seedling to let the master see it, so I went over and talked about it."

He Jian is extremely tall and crazy about martial arts. When he heard this, he turned his head:

"The threshold for the closed disciples of the national master is not very high. Nowadays, the younger generation of Northern Qi is the only senior brother who is better than Mr. Zuo. Including the Central Plains, there is only one Mei Qu who gave birth to the other Xu Buling. Could it be that a good seedling is better than Mr. Zuo?"

Zuo Yezi smiled plainly: "The world is so big that strange people should have emerged. Chang'an and his party made me understand what 'the sky is high and the earth is thick'."

Qi Guohai smiled twice: "It's great to have this intention, but those who practice martial arts should have a sense of arrogance. Mei Qusheng and Xu Buling are just some names among the young people in the Central Plains. Ye Zi is a great man, but there may be a gap now, so after a few years of hard work, they will naturally catch up."

Zuo Yezi thought a little bit: "Xu Buling this person, well... he can't be considered a human being. He was so powerful that he was beaten by the Dragon Lock Gu. I heard from the spy that he had recently found a drug from the Western Regions. It is really unimaginable how powerful it can be when the Dragon Lock Gu is solved."

He Jian shook his head: "No matter how famous you are, you are a human being. You have never left the world. You met Xu Buling in the first battle. It is normal to look at him with admiration. When you see more geniuses in the world in the future, you will find that it is actually that way."

While he was talking, a guard suddenly rushed in outside the hall.

Because the special envoy in the capital was reading the monarch's congratulations, the guests were whispering when they were talking, and they broke in rashly, obviously rudely.

For a moment, the special envoy stopped talking with the imperial edict. Prince Zuo Jiang Yan also frowned and said:

"Why is Xu You calling him in such a hurry?"

“Hahaha…”

A few chuckles came from the hall, and their eyes turned to the guards who suddenly broke in.

The guard looked panicked and stepped forward and bowed:

"Prince, there is a guest outside who claims to be Prince Su Xu Buling, and come to celebrate the birthday of the prince."

“…”

The guests were a little confused, and even Zuo Yezi and Chen Xuan frowned. Their first reaction was that someone came to cheat and fucked the banquet.

However, if you cheat, you can also report the names of the nearby big families. King Su is close to you, but they are kings of different surnames from the enemy country, and they are against each other for a long time. Could it be that anyone else has never heard of it?

Jiang Yan turned his head slightly, and was stunned for a moment before he was sure that he had heard it correctly. He said in a deep voice:

"All things come in and report. Xu Youneng sent his son to celebrate my birthday. I cut off my head and used it as a chamber pot for him."

The tone was filled with anger, and the guard was frightened and said tremblingly:

"I thought it was a fisherman in troubled waters, but...just..."

Before he could finish his words, a noise rang out of the hall.

So the man turned around and saw a white-clothed young man walking around the screen wall in the small square outside the hall, holding a roast chicken in his left hand and a "long stick" wrapped in black cloth in his right hand, and strode towards the main hall.

Dozens of soldiers holding weapons were trying hard to stop and scold them. Unfortunately, no matter how good or bad your skills were, they were slapped down in an understatement, as if they were in a state of no one.

Hundreds of guests around the main hall stood up after seeing someone making trouble.

The Chang Shi Jian in the side hall frowned. He had never seen Xu Buling and didn't know him. Seeing that Prince Zuo's guard was so careless, he thought of getting up and helping to clean up and make a favor. But Wu You next to him suddenly pressed his shoulder.

Chang Shijian turned his head, but saw Wu You's eyes full of blood. He stared at the figure in white and gritted his teeth and said:

"Don't be impatient, this person is Xu Bu Ling, and is definitely not an ordinary person."

Chang Shijian was slightly stunned when he heard this, looked carefully and sat down again.

"Bold—"

"Who are you-"

There were constant scolding outside the main hall, and the guests of the royal palace surrounded him from all directions.

Xu Buling carried a long spear and roast chicken, slapped the fish blocking the road along the way, came to the front of the main hall, saw the man in the armor sitting at the deepest point, and spoke:

"I heard that Prince Zuo's birthday is here today, and this prince came to congratulate him. Unexpectedly, he was attacked by others. Northern Qi is a country of etiquette. Is this your way of hospitality?"

The sound was clear and neither anxious nor slow, but it came to everyone in the surrounding halls.

"Xu Bu Ling?!"

Zuo Yezi reacted when he heard the sound and immediately looked stunned and a little unbelievable.

Qi Guohai and He Jian frowned, only to hear that people's martial arts skills were unfathomable, but they still didn't believe that King Su's son dared to run here.

Chen Xuan's face changed drastically and he stood up: "Is it because the Xiliang army broke through the city? Hurry up, go outside the city to take a look..."

Jiang Yanxian was also incredible, but compared to the Western Liang Iron Cavalry who silently broke the Black City, the chances of Prince Su coming over were greater. After all, Xu Buling was about to do this a few years ago, but he got lost after leaving the customs and ran to kill a nest of bandits.

After a few words, Xu Buling had already entered the main hall. The royal family guarded Jiang Yan with weapons in hand, and Qi Guohai and He Jian also stood up.

Jiang Yan looked at Xu Buling, because he had seen Xu You on the battlefield, and then he really confirmed that the person coming was King Su's son, and said:

"Crown Prince Xu is so courageous, he dares to come."

Xu Buling carried the roast chicken and walked to the center of the hall as if no one was around. He raised his sword eyebrows and looked at Jiang Yan above:

"The central gate is open and guests from all directions are welcomed. Why don't I dare to come?"

Chen Xuan saw that it was Xu Buling, and after analyzing the situation, he became excited and said:

"Take him down quickly, he is the son of King Su..."

"Slow down!"

Before many guards could take action, Jiang Yan raised his hand:

"Xu Buling, is Xu You asking you to surrender?"

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and then they felt that it was very likely that they could send their own son to come over, and there seemed to be no other possibility except surrender.

But King Su had just broken through Wangnan Pass. Now the two armies are still fighting in Yuanzhou. They have always pursued the victory, and it is too incredible to surrender.

Facing the puzzled eyes of everyone present, Xu Buling put the roast chicken in his hand on the table with a clear smile:

"I am afraid that Prince Zuo is not worthy of my Xu family. Come here to celebrate my birthday and discuss something with Prince Zuo by the way."

When Jiang Yan heard this, he was not angry and raised his hand to ask the visitor to put away his sword first:

"I respect the old general Xu, give you a face and say something. Although 'the two armies will not be killed when they fight,' if you don't have a suitable reason today, if you want to return to Dayue, Xu You may have to exchange two states for it."

Xu Buling held the long spear wrapped in black cloth and glanced at everyone present:

"A few days ago, I broke through Wangnan Pass and the Qi army defended Yuanzhou to the death. The two armies were in a stalemate in Yuanzhou. The war caused many businessmen to dare not come and go. So my father asked me to come over and talk to the left."

Jiang Sui frowned: "Are you here to ask for peace?"
