Wang Xiu couldn't help being speechless, and said with a dry smile: "Uncle, you used to be a member of Honglu Temple, and you were in charge of entertaining foreign guests. There must be more people. You can't do it, can you?"
Grass!
"What do you mean you can't do it? Who are you looking down on, boy? I added a nephew to you not long ago." Tang Jian immediately glared at Wang Xiu as if he had been beaten to death.
"Brilliant!"
Wang Xiu gave a thumbs up, this is a ruthless person, clearly the feeling of an old urchin.
"Haha, I'll leave the matter to you. I'm going to have a few drinks too. I'm thirsty."
"Thank you uncle, I will send you some men's supplements another day, which will make you so refreshed that you can't breathe."
Wang Xiu turned his head and looked into the courtyard. It was already full of guests, and they all came to give gifts.
There were ten tables full of people, almost all of them were young people at a glance, only a few of them were recognized.
The one with the highest status is probably Prince Li Chengqian. He is the future heir apparent of the Tang Dynasty. He actually came here in person, obviously to support Wang Xiu. This uncle is quite good.
Then Li Ke, King of Shu, Li Jingheng, the eldest son of Li Daozong, Fang Yizhi, the eldest son of Fang Xuanling, and others all came.
This lineup is definitely strong enough. The combined strength of these people is enough to overthrow Datang.
This reminded Wang Xiu of a saying: If the flowers are in full bloom, the butterflies will come naturally.If you are wonderful, the world is like firewood.
Everyone is gathering firewood and the flames are high. Isn't this just to praise it.
……
Some of the guests who were not planning to come couldn't help but be surprised. Fortunately, they came here, otherwise they would have missed this grand event.
Zhou Wennai is the son of Xiangzhou Inspector, this time he was sent by his father to make contact with each other.
After seeing this scene, he was dumbfounded.
As the son of the governor of a state, he actually sat at the last seat. If Tang Jian, the Duke of Tang, hadn't arranged it, he would have scolded others.
Looking around at the other people on the table, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart. It's too much for a bunch of crooked melons to sit at the same table as him.
"If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have come. This is simply suffering."
He couldn't help complaining in his heart.
Wang Xiu is just a warm residence, so what do so many people come to do, it's a waste of time.
He couldn't help but whispered: "What a Wang Xiu, he is just Wen Ju who changed the name of his mansion, so many people came here, I'm afraid he is a corrupt official."
Hearing his words, the person next to him couldn't help but glance at him, seeing his disdainful expression, couldn't help but smile.
"You are quite courageous, dare to speak ill of Wang Xiu. You know that many people want to give gifts to Wang Xiu, but they haven't had the chance yet. Naturally, they will take this opportunity." The man laughed.
Zhou Wen was dumbfounded, and said with a dry smile: "It's such an exaggeration, is there any chance of giving gifts, is it true that personal gifts will be accepted?"
"Hmph, you don't understand, don't you? Look who is there!" The person who spoke just now pointed to the innermost main table and said with a smile on his face.
After Zhou Wen glanced at it, his complexion changed drastically, and he lost his voice and said, "My God, it's actually the Crown Prince and the King of Shu. Why did these two come together?"
Although he is only the son of the governor of Xiangzhou, it doesn't mean he doesn't know Li Chengqian. The prince often comes out to do things, so he naturally knows him.
It was already surprising that the prince came, and he never expected that the king of Shu would also come.
Everyone knew that the King of Shu and the Crown Prince were rivals, and they had been wrestling in secret all along. Now they came to Wang Xiu's place together, which was a big deal.
Taking another look, the sons of Ren Chengwang, Su Guogong, and Fang Xuanling, these people are people he usually needs to be promoted, and now they are all here.
This is too arrogant.
"Haha, isn't this a very normal thing?"
"Wang Xiu is now the emperor's confidant. He built the Jiaozhou granary for the Tang Dynasty, and now he has promoted the vegetable base. That is a solid gold mountain. Who doesn't want to get involved."
"As far as I know, many people have gone to give gifts in Jiaozhou, but ordinary people's gifts can't even enter the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, and they are directly thrown out."
"Both the Crown Prince and the King of Shu want to win over Wang Xiu, so naturally they have to come in person. Even if they can't win over, at least they have to make friends, otherwise it would be bad to have one more enemy."
Zhou Wen couldn't help trembling. Even the crown prince and the king of Shu needed to win over Wang Xiu. This made him feel that he should be like this. This is the real successful person.
"So that's how it is, a man should be like this!" He couldn't help sighing.
"Hehe, it's ridiculous that the members of the Wang family wanted Wang Xiu to return to the Wang family, and even threatened Wang Xiu. If the family tree is expelled, I think they want to eat ass."
A person couldn't help gloating.
With such a lineup, even the Crown Prince and the King of Shu wanted to save face, and the Wang family was simply humiliating themselves.
Zhou Wen saw that he was so clear, and suddenly felt that this buddy in front of him was not a mortal, and he probably had a lot of background, otherwise he wouldn't know so many inside stories.
Such an expert must make friends.
Chapter 264 My friend is here, I want fine wine
"This man is very knowledgeable, I wonder if I can tell you his name. Thanks for my advice today, I will definitely invite my brother to visit Pingkangfang some other day." Zhou Wen said excitedly.
The person who spoke did not refuse, and said with a smile: "Hahaha, I am not afraid to tell you, I am Duan Xuan, governor of Yongzhou!"
"Governor of Yongzhou?"
Zhou Wen's complexion changed drastically. This is actually a big man, one level higher than his father, so he is a little neglected.
Fuck, I seem to have said bad things about Wang Xiu in front of him just now, this is really troublesome.
"The kid doesn't know the identity of the adult, it's really offensive." His heart skipped a beat, and he quickly apologized, his eyes also became pitiful.
If this guy told him to tell Wang Xiu, he would be in serious trouble.
"Hmph, it's good to know the offense!"
Duan Xuan glanced at him, and said quietly: "It doesn't matter if you offend me, but you can't forget about the treat you said about Pingkangfang, otherwise the governor will let you know what cruelty is."
what?
Zhou Wen was about to cry, what are you doing sitting at the bottom of our table as a governor, isn't this a scam.
The others were also dumbfounded. They were all businessmen and members of the low-level family, and now a member of the Duan family has sneaked in. This is the nephew of Duke Fan, who has a big backer.
Everyone knows that the Duan family has a place in the imperial court now, this is definitely not a joke, it is much more noble than them.
Why did he appear at the last table? Could it be that Duke Ju is too confused?
Snapped!
At this time, a hand appeared on Duan Xuan's shoulder, and said with a smile: "The reason why he is here is because he is avoiding me!"
"Meet the champion!"
When everyone saw this person, they couldn't help being excited, and quickly stood up and said hello.
Duan Xuan froze, her face turned green, she turned her head in disbelief, and saw Wang Xiu at a glance, she couldn't help being dumbfounded.
"Fuck, you found out about this?" He said in shock.
Wang Xiu grabbed him and said with a smile: "Let's go, brother, you are the governor here. If word gets out, Lord Baoguo will probably blame me. I won't take the blame for this."
"How could it be?" Duan Xuan laughed dryly. The reason why he was afraid of seeing Wang Xiu was because he still owed money.
A full 50 guan, he wanted to hide when he saw Wang Xiu now, because the money was not a small amount, and he really couldn't get it out for a while.
Wang Xiu glanced at everyone, expressed his thanks one by one, and said solemnly: "I have wronged you all, Wang Xiu has not made arrangements for his arrival in Chang'an, and everything is still a bit rough. If I have the opportunity, I will definitely thank you all."
"Champion Hou is too polite!"
"With the words of the governor, we are already very moved."
Everyone couldn't help being moved, it was a great honor to be able to talk to them as Wang Xiu and even express his apologies.
Champion Hou is really approachable, he has no airs at all.
Only the corner of Duan Xuan's mouth twitched. Looking at the faces of these people, he knew what they were thinking, and he couldn't help but sighed. These people are still a little too young.
At the beginning, this guy had [-] sticks and a carrot, but he was so deceitful, this kid is not a good person.
……
Wang Xiu brought Duan Xuan to the main table. The people here are all well-connected, and the leader is the crown prince Li Chengqian, the future prince of the Tang Dynasty.
Then there are Shu Wang Li Ke and Li Jingheng Fang Yizhi and others. These are the strongest second generations of the Tang Dynasty.
As for the several princes who did not come, they all sent their juniors to present gifts.Obviously, their identities are not suitable for Wang Xiu, a junior, to visit. After all, they are elders.
The Duke of the State is Tang Jian, who came in the name of Wang Xiu's parents.
The old guy ran over and scolded the Wang family for a while, and then took over the task of greeting the guests himself, saving Wang Xiu a lot of trouble.
He didn't know many people here, which was a bit embarrassing.
Seeing Wang Xiu bring Duan Xuan over, Li Chengqian couldn't help being stunned.Duan Xuan is known as the first victim of Chang'an, and is Duan Zhixuan's nephew, so Li Chengqian naturally knows him.
How did these two get related?
He couldn't help but asked with a smile: "Wang Xiu, what are you doing with Duan Xuan, this guy won't provoke you?"
"I kept the prince waiting for a long time. I'm too busy today, so I neglected the prince. As for this guy, he owes me money, Wang Xiu said with a smile." Wang Xiu apologized.
owe money?
Li Chengqian had a strange look on his face. It seemed that the two of them were tricky, but he didn't pursue it.
He looked at Wang Xiu, couldn't help laughing and said, "Haha, we're almost a family, don't say those polite words. I'm here to join in the fun today, but I'm causing you trouble."
After hearing this sentence, everyone couldn't help being moved. It seems that Wang Xiu's marriage to the eldest princess is basically a certainty, and this is certified by the crown prince himself.
"Congratulations, Wang Xiu. This mansion is what I want, but unfortunately, Father has been reluctant to give it to you this time. It really makes people jealous."
Only Shu Wang Li Ke said with a smile.
In fact, his mood is very complicated, and it can even be said that he is a little lost.
Once Wang Xiu marries the eldest princess, it will be the most unfavorable for him, because then Wang Xiu will be closer to the crown prince and the king of Wei.
"That's right, the Prince Qi's mansion was auctioned by the Supreme Emperor himself. It is the largest mansion, and it is the mansion of a prince. The emperor rewarded Wang Xiu. Even I, the crown prince, are jealous." Li Chengqian couldn't help it. laughed.
"Congratulations, Champion!"
"Haha, if the crown prince comes here in person, and the king of Shu and all the brothers can come, that is to save my king's face."
After speaking, Wang Xiu turned his head, looked at the guests in other seats, and said solemnly: "The same is true for all the guests. I, Wang Xiu, thank you very much for coming. This is for my face. Just call me Wang Xiu from now on. , I can see that I call me Brother Wang, and I will do my part."
"I am very simple. If you treat me as your own, then I will treat you as your own."
"Since we are our own people, we must treat you with the best things, otherwise it is my fault, Wang Xiu."
"Xuanwu, take out the top-quality wine from the Dudu's collection, and I'm sure everyone will have a good time today."
He gave instructions to Xuanwu who was on the side, and the latter hurried down to get the wine.
"Brother Wang, then we will not be polite."
"Haha, Brother Wang is really interesting. I like such a free and easy person. It's good to live like this."
The crowd was touched by Wang Xiu's words, and they all couldn't help cheering, such a free and easy Champion Hou is really handsome, living a beautiful life.
Chapter 265 Jiannan Shaochun, Peerless Wine
Wang Xiu laughed happily and said, "I have a sword when the enemy comes, but naturally we need good wine when the friend comes. Today we won't go home until we're drunk!"
What a Wang Xiu who clearly distinguishes between himself and the enemy, this guy lives in style.
"Okay, if you don't get drunk, you won't go home!"
Even the crown prince Li Chengqian couldn't help but shoot the case. Infected by this kind of pride, perhaps this is the most comfortable day.
It's a pity he couldn't do it.
As a prince, he often has no choice but to balance the forces around him, and even compromise. There are too many last resorts.
and many more!
Excellent wine?
After hearing these four words, Tang Jian, who was drinking with a few acquaintances next door, suddenly brightened his eyes. What can be called the best wine is not easy, and this is probably the real wine.
"Wang Xiu, what is this superb wine, you kid didn't bring it to me last time?" Tang Jian was suddenly dissatisfied, this kid is not sensible.
Wang Xiu smiled wryly and said: "This wine is called Jiannan Shaochun, I just got it recently, it is definitely the best wine!"
