Chapter 281 Baby Kiss

Chu and the imperial capital.

Due to the holding of the state banquet, the population of the imperial capital has been fully loaded, and the wide streets that can accommodate sixteen horse-drawn carriages are now crowded with pedestrians, let alone horse-drawn carriages, and even walking is difficult, one by one. Hands, screams sounded from time to time.

The same is true for the shops on both sides, which are packed to the brim, and the customers who go in take whatever they see, regardless of whether they need it or not; It was all paid by King Chu Heng.

The imperial capital is divided into inner and outer cities, the outer city is mostly where ordinary people live; the inner city is where practitioners or dignitaries live.

Starting from the gate of the inner city, in three rows, a wide long street was filled with banquets, with exquisite delicacies placed on it, all the way to the Chu Palace.

This is called Fenghua Banquet, implying that under the leadership of King Chu Heng, the Great Chu is in full bloom like a beautiful woman.

The Fenghua Banquet has a total of 99 tables, which also implies the supreme status of King Chu Heng.

These Fenghua banquets are prepared for those dignitaries and famous people from all over the world; walking into the inner city, you will arrive at the palace of Chu State, where there are also tables and tables of banquets.

After walking inside, you will arrive at the King's Terrace, where the state banquet will finally be held, where King Chu Heng entertains the big shots from all over the world.

On the King's Terrace, there is a table carved with a five-clawed golden dragon. On the right side of the table, there is also a table, but the engraved pattern on it is not a five-clawed golden dragon, but a phoenix.

From an aesthetic point of view, it is a bit abrupt to put one alone.

On the two sides below the king's platform, there are desks arranged in a symmetrical arrangement, extending to the end.

Except for the few table tables at the forefront, the rest are already full of people.

Among these people were the fourth prince Chu Liuxiang and the thirteenth prince Chu Huaixiang.

The fourth prince Chu Liuxiang looked around and said meaningfully: "This year's state banquet seems to have lost a lot of people!"

Chu Huaixiang took a look and said, "It's okay, everyone who wants to come has come, and it's useless to force those who don't want to come."

Chu Liuxiang smiled, and before he could speak, the gorgeously dressed man on the other side interrupted and said, "Brother Sihuang, I heard that the reason why many important figures from previous years were missing in this state banquet is because Watanabe Town Because of the so-and-so hegemony contest held by a magical bookstore there?"

"Brother Nine Emperors, it's the Pokemon Contest." Chu Liuxiang corrected.

Hearing the words, the Ninth Prince suddenly said, "Yes, it's the Pokemon Contest. I heard someone say it last time. It is said that this time the Promise Emperor is also absent from this year's state banquet because of this incident."

"Brother Nine Emperors, how can you talk nonsense, Wuji Linghuang is the mayor of Watanabe Town and a big official on the border. Right now, Qin State is about to move, and the situation in Yan State is in turmoil. It would be too inappropriate for Wuji Linghuang to attend the state banquet at this time. "Chu Huaixiang said out loud.

It's not that he favors Zhou Wuji and speaks good words for Zhou Wuji, the main fact lies here. A person like Zhou Wuji who guards the border fortress must definitely leave his post without authorization under such circumstances.

Brother Jiuhuang curled his lips, looked at Chu Huaixiang, and teased, "Why is Thirteenth Brother still obsessed with Miss Zhou?"

Chu Huaixiang frowned, and looked at the Ninth Prince unhappily.

Ten years ago, King Chu Heng wanted to marry Zhou Wuji in order to win over Zhou Wuji, so Chu Huaixiang, who was the youngest of the princes, naturally became the best candidate; Zhou Wuji did not object at that time, but he did not agree, so His attitude naturally made King Chu Heng feel that Zhou Wuji had agreed to the marriage, so he agreed with Zhou Wuji to let the thirteenth prince marry her when the daughter of the Zhou family came of age.

Later, Zhou Zhuling fell ill unexpectedly, dying, and even the medical sage Shaoyao was helpless; in this case, until Zhou Zhuling was close to 20 years old, King Chu Heng did not mention this marriage, so that everyone thought that Chu Heng Wang knew that Zhou Zhuling would not live long, so he wanted to abandon this marriage.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Zhuling's illness was cured after the turn of events, so the news of the marriage ten years ago suddenly spread again during this period. Some people even thought that at this state banquet, King Chu Heng would definitely bring up the old matter again. Married to Zhou Wuji.

Because Zhou Wuji's potential is too great, he is in the realm of Linghuang at a young age, and his future achievements will at least not be lower than that of Chu Sheng; if he can marry Zhou Wuji, then the national fortune of Chu State can be preserved for at least 3000 years.

But at this critical moment, Zhou Wuji was absent from the state banquet this time, which was very meaningful. Everyone felt that Zhou Wuji wanted to reject King Chu Heng in this way.

Although things are guessed by everyone right now, among these high-level figures, sometimes a single movement or a look is enough to make them think of countless possibilities.

So Chu Huaixiang was embarrassed. Basically, he was regarded as the one who was abandoned, and this matter was occasionally brought out to disgust Chu Huaixiang.

Just like now.

"Brother Jiuhuang shouldn't care about my affairs. Brother Jiuhuang should care more about himself. I heard that the freshmen of Cangmang College failed to select Brother Jiuhuang. It's a pity." Chu Huaixiang couldn't help mocking road.

"You!" The Ninth Prince's face was warm and angry, and he was about to scold Chu Huaixiang.

The fourth prince Chu Liuxiang waved his hands and said, "Okay, why are you brothers arguing? Today is a state banquet and there are many foreign guests. We represent the image of the entire Chu State, so pay attention to your words and deeds."

"Hmph!" The Ninth Prince and Chu Huaixiang snorted coldly, turned their heads to one side, and ignored each other.

"By the way, Brother Fourth, Miracle Bookstore openly held private activities during the state banquet, is Father clear about this?" Ninth Prince suddenly thought of this, turned his head and asked.

Chu Liuxiang smiled slightly and said, "Of course I know."

"Then what is the father planning to do?" The Ninth Prince asked curiously.

Chu Huaixiang on the side also pricked up his ears to listen carefully.

Although they are all princes, besides the eldest prince, the one who can often see King Chu Heng is the fourth prince Chu Liuxiang.

In the hearts of the Chu people today, the future king is basically chosen from the two of them.

Chu Liuxiang glanced at the king's platform, there was still no one there, and said in a meaningful tone, "Didn't you find that there is only one table on both sides of the throne this year?"

Hearing this, the two raised their heads to look at the King's Terrace, and found that there was indeed only a phoenix table behind the throne.

In previous years, there should be another one on the other side.

"Chu Sheng has gone to Watanabe Town!"
