Chapter 509 Completion of Tribute
In the main hall, the conversations of some people on the tables could not be heard, obviously they were shielded by some means, and some tables were not hidden, even if they didn’t deliberately listen, they could still hear them.
Xiahou Dun arranged a soundproofing method casually, obviously he had something to tell everyone.
"Father told me to go to Emperor Lingwu to visit Zuoxiang's mansion. We must find out the location of Zuoxiang's mansion first, and then come to visit!"

Xiahoudun finally stated the purpose of coming to the imperial capital this time, but everyone did not speak. They mainly focused on protecting Xiahoudun, and they did not participate in some things.
Emperor Lingwu had two phases on the left and right, and the four ministries below, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Punishment.
Xiahou Qingtian was able to hand over this position to Xiahou Dun, so it is conceivable that he attaches great importance to Xiahou Dun. As for the right minister, it is not known which prince it is.
"Third Prince, do you have any ideas about choosing a son-in-law for the imperial princess?" Lu Tian asked with a smile.
Xiahou Dun smiled wryly when he heard the words: "It's better not to get involved in this kind of thing, I don't want to lose my life."

Everyone nodded, they all understood that there must be countless people who participated in the selection of a son-in-law, not to mention that Xiahou Dun stood out, it would be good to save his life.
Soon, the service staff served the food and drinks, and everyone began to eat and drink, while paying attention to the conversation on the next table.
"This time the Qingtian Dynasty's tribute team was killed by the White Lotus Sect, and the tribute was also cut off."

"The Qingtian Dynasty was unlucky. It just happened to encounter the White Lotus Sect massacring the city. I heard that there are teams from other dynasties as well."

At the next table, someone from an unknown dynasty is talking.
"This time it's another tribute, and it's the princess choosing a son-in-law again. It's strange that the White Lotus Sect doesn't jump out."

"There are so many forces in the imperial dynasty. When the princess chooses her son-in-law, she will win our dynasty, so be careful!"

The content of the conversation was not much, and it mainly revolved around the White Lotus Sect. Obviously, on the way here, many dynastic forces also encountered the White Lotus Sect.
As can be imagined, he died naturally at the hands of the White Lotus Sect.
Regarding the selection of the princess's son-in-law, many dynasties are also very knowledgeable and know that there are few opportunities, so they don't want to participate.
After everyone finished their meal, they left Mingsheng Restaurant and went out to inquire about the location of Zuo Xiangfu. After making a note of it carefully, Xiahou Dun planned to visit him the next day.
The left minister's name is Cheng Yong, he is the left and right hand of Emperor Lingwu, and has a high position and authority. For this reason, Xiahou Dun has been making preparations, what should he say if he sees Cheng Yong.
The next day, Xiahou Dun ordered his guards to keep an eye on the other five princes to see which minister they were going to visit.
I also brought a group of people to the outside of Zuoxiangfu, and saw a long queue in front of Zuoxiangfu, and many forces were queuing up to register.
Xiahou Dun also obediently queued up to register, and waited for the interview after registration.
With so many influences, it is of course impossible for Prime Minister Zuo to receive them one by one. After some influences shout their names and enter, Banzhuxiang Kungfu will come out.
From their conversation, we learned that Prime Minister Zuo will not meet them personally, but will be met by the steward of the Prime Minister's House.
Even if they are in charge of the Xiangfu, they will not say a few words to them, and see off the guests after completing the task, so Xiahou Dun's preparations are useless.
He also breathed a sigh of relief, if he really met Cheng Yong, it would be over if he said something wrong.
Not long after Xiahou Dun registered, a guard called Xiahou Dynasty to enter. Xiahou Dun brought Mi Lao and Lu Tian in, and a servant led them to the side hall.
In the side hall, there was an old man standing here, seeing Xiahoudun and his party walking in back and forth, he smiled at Xiahoudun and said, "Old man Zuoxiangfu is in charge, you can call me Wang in charge."

"Wang Guanshi, Xiahou Dun, the third prince of the Xiahou Dynasty, came to pay tribute on behalf of the Xiahou Dynasty."

Without further ado, Xiahoudun took out two storage rings, one was for the king alone, and the other was for paying tribute to the left.
This is the rule. After all, they paid tribute through the left minister and passed through the hands of the king. The meaning is normal.
Steward Wang smiled after taking the storage ring, and he knew the items in the ring already, after all, it was not the first time to handle it.
Seeing Guanshi Wang accepting the items, Xiahou Dun knew that the trip was over, and when he was about to take the two of them to leave, Guanshi Wang suddenly said, "What does the third prince think about the princess's choice of a son-in-law?"

Hearing the question, Xiahou Dun replied truthfully: "I know that I have no hope, so I won't participate!"

Steward Wang nodded approvingly: "It's best for the third prince to think like this. The old man in the province persuaded me that choosing a son-in-law this time is not as simple as it appears on the surface."

"Thank you, Manager Wang, for letting me know!"

Xiahou Dun saluted and thanked, and Wang Guanshi's reminder was also taken to heart, at least he knew that his decision was right.
Before leaving, Guanshi Wang said again: "Master Zuo ordered this old man to convey a word to King Xiahou, don't worry!"

After hearing this, Xiahoudun expressed his understanding, and took Lu Tian and Mi Lao to leave.
The group returned to Mingsheng Restaurant. They were the fastest to come back among the six princes. They waited for the other five to come back before deciding on their return.
This visit to Prime Minister Zuo did not see Prime Minister Zuo at all. Fortunately, the task is half completed, as long as you bring back the words that Prime Minister Zuo brought back, it will be successfully completed.
When the other five princes returned to Mingsheng Restaurant one after another, after Xiahoudun met with them, he knew that they had also completed their tasks.
The process is similar, none of them met the actual ministers, and they also passed the transfer.
The six princes have completed their tasks, and the next step is to return to the Xiahou Dynasty. On this matter, the six princes have different ideas.
Except for Xiahoudun and Xiahouyu, the other four princes want to stay and participate in the selection of son-in-law. If they succeed, then the throne will be secure.
Seeing this, Xiahou Dun didn't reveal what Wang Guanshi said. Although they are brothers, they are also contenders for the throne, so there is no need to remind each other.
The other four princes were very happy with Xiahou Dun's decision, they wished Xiahou Dun would not participate.
As for the sixth prince Xia Houyu, he has always shown that he has no interest in the throne. Maybe he really knows that he has no hope, so he plans to leave!

Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yu decided to rest for another day, and left the capital early in the morning on the third day to return to the Xiahou Dynasty.
Afterwards, the personal guard reported to Xiahoudun the itinerary of the five princes for a day, and learned that the sixth prince Xiahouyu had visited the prime minister, which made Xiahoudun pay more attention to his sixth brother.
This shows that Xiahou Qingtian is also optimistic about Xiahouyu, and even put him in the same position as Xiahoudun. If it weren't for this discovery, Xiahoudun might not have noticed Xiahouyu at all.
And Xia Houyu did not choose to participate in the son-in-law selection, and it is very likely that he was notified by the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, and finally decided not to participate.
In the evening, Lu Tian entered the Chaos Orb. The limit of this incarnation is the realm of the fairy king, but the half-step fairy king is also the realm of the fairy king. Through the gift of talent, he has reached the half-step fairy king realm.
No one knows about Lu Tian's becoming a half-step fairy king, even Mi Lao can't see through it, the two are in the same realm.
