“Everyone, please dispense with the formalities!”
The second Prince walked in slowly with a smile on his face and raised his hand.””We’re all talents from our respective countries. Today, let’s drink together and get drunk!”
On the surface, the second Prince was quite a gentleman, unlike the other people Lin Yi had met from the long bang conferred Kingdom. Even if they were just small fries, they had their eyes on their heads and looked down on people from commanderies.!!
The third Princess was wearing a thin veil that covered everything below her nose, revealing only a pair of bright and lively big eyes. She followed the second Prince and did not speak or move.
“I’ve long heard that the second Prince is a man of honor. Seeing you today, you really live up to your reputation!”
Someone started flattering Lin Yi, and both Lin Yi and Liu Ziyu couldn’t help but curl their lips. This guy just said something so casual, and he called this “treating the wise like soldiers”?
There were really all kinds of birds in a big forest!
The two didn’t follow the crowd, and seemed to be walking their own paths.
Fortunately, the second Prince didn’t notice Lin Yi and Liu Ziyu-there were plenty of people fawning over him, so he didn’t need one or two more.
The second Prince and the third Princess ascended to the main seats.
After they sat down at their table, the maidservants outside the door entered one after another and began to remove the fruits and desserts from before, and then replaced them with rare delicacies.
The White jade cup was filled with amber-colored wine, and the rich aroma of the wine quickly spread. Just by smelling it, there was a refreshing feeling. It was obvious that this wine was not an ordinary one.
“The purpose of today’s welcome banquet is to welcome all of you here in the Dragon nation. Since we’re all young, there’s no need to address you as princes and princesses. As the host, I’d like to offer a toast to all of you!”
The second Prince stood up and raised his wine glass to both sides. Everyone present stood up one after another, and after another round of flattery, they toasted each other.
Lin Yi drank a glass of wine, a little bored. He didn’t like this kind of occasion, and was thinking of an excuse to leave first and let Liu Ziyu stay to see what was going on.
As for whether Liu Ziyu wanted to stay here or not, it did not matter. He would have to face more similar situations in the future, so he would train for now!
“Your Royal Highness, your Royal Highness! The eldest grandson of the Sima family of Hongshang Commandery, Sima Zhongxiao, pays his respects to the two Majesties!”
Sima Zhongxiao stood behind the table and turned to the seat of honor,””I’ve long heard of the second Prince’s reputation in Hongshang Commandery. I’ve been looking for an opportunity to meet you. Now, I’ve finally fulfilled my long-cherished wish. It’s really delightful!”
“So it’s Sima Zhongxiao from Hongshang Commandery. I’ve heard of you too! No need to be so formal, I already said that you can call me whatever you want!”
The second Prince had a smile on his face. Although his words were polite, he could address him as he wished. Sima Zhongxiao did not have the guts to do so.
“Your Highness has heard of this lowly subject?”
Sima Zhongxiao’s face was filled with pride and even a little excitement,””This lowly subject is truly honored. Your Highness is indeed as the rumors say, knowledgeable and has a deep mind! Even if you don’t step out of the house, you can still know everything about the world!”
Liu Ziyu couldn’t help but purse his lips again. He thought to himself, this Sima Zhongxiao is getting more and more shameless!
Before anyone else could say anything, he had already jumped out and was eager to kneel and lick the boots of the second Prince of a conferred Kingdom of the Dragon state.
After all, it was more effective to curry favor with the second Prince of a conferred Kingdom of the Dragon state than with the young masters of the commanderies from before.
As long as a conferred Kingdom of the Dragon state gave the order, not to mention passing the throne to Sima Yun Fei or Sima Zhong Xiao, even if it were to pass it to Feng Zhi Peng, Sima Zheng Xin would have to obey it unconditionally!
Of course, Lin Yi wouldn’t agree to that. Who would be the unlucky one then?
Sima Zhongxiao didn’t care what others thought. He had finally managed to get close to the second Prince of the Dragon nation, so he was really trying his best to make the second Prince laugh. The atmosphere was quite good.
“Second brother, don’t just talk!”
The third Princess suddenly opened her mouth. Her voice was light and ethereal, and it was quite pleasant to the ear. Although one could not see her true appearance under the veil, just her eyes and voice alone were enough to be called a beauty!
“Everyone here is a genius from various countries. It’s rare for us to be able to gather together. Why don’t we let everyone show off some of their personal talents and broaden our horizons?”
If someone else had said this, these arrogant young masters might have been angry. After all, they were all people of status. How could they perform any talents in public?
There was no problem with exchanging pointers, but it would be embarrassing if it was a pure performance to attract the attention of others!
However, since the one who had spoken was the third Princess of a conferred Kingdom of the Dragon state, those young masters didn’t have any thoughts of embarrassing themselves. All of them felt that this was a good opportunity to show off!
“Your Highness is right! Since that’s the case, I’ll be the first to show off!”
Sima Zhongxiao took advantage of the fact that he had been talking to the second Prince the entire time and was the first to gain the upper hand, so he rushed to show off.
Unless there was a particularly amazing talent, if everyone’s standards were similar, the first one to come out would always have an advantage and would easily leave a deep impression.
“Great talent Zhongxiao, I wonder what kind of talent you are going to show today?”
The second Prince smiled and nodded, expressing his appreciation for Sima Zhongxiao’s initiative,””We can’t wait to see it.”
“Your Highness, I have some experience in sword dance and would like to show it off in front of you two. Please allow me to do so!”
Sima Zhongxiao left the table and walked to the center of the stage. He bowed and cupped his fists.
The people who came to the banquet naturally would not carry any weapons with them. Even if it was just a decorative sword, it would be taken away by the guards for safekeeping.
After all, they were going to meet the prince and Princess of a conferred Kingdom in the Dragon state.
Therefore, if Sima Zhongxiao wanted to perform the sword dance, he would first have to get the second Prince’s approval before he could get the props.
“Accurate! Of course it was! Men, go and get the sword!”
The second Prince raised his voice and gave the order. Soon, a guard brought a long sword into the hall with both hands.
The hilt and scabbard of the long sword were extremely gorgeous. They were inlaid with dazzling gems. Even if they were not moved, they would constantly reflect light, dazzling the eyes.
Lin Yi couldn’t help but rub his chin, thinking of Fernandes.
Well, it was now called Fei daqiang. If he saw this sword, his eyes would probably be very red, right?
From the decorations alone, it seemed to be from the same line as his great podao. Perhaps this guy would try to get his hands on this sword by all means.
On the other side, Sima Zhongxiao thanked the second Prince once again before he took the longsword and slowly unsheathed it.
A cold light as clear as autumn water shone out, reflecting on the gem decorations, making them even more dazzling.
“Good sword!”
Sima Zhongxiao praised loudly, his face full of admiration.
Liu Ziyu pouted and muttered,”how cheap!”
