After leaving Mount Longhu, Zhao Ce and the others did not stay any longer.
He headed straight north.
Of course, there were some places where Zhao Ce had to go and sign in to receive the system's rewards.
Several days later.
Zhao Ce and the others entered the Qingzhou territory and went to Xiangfan City.
"Since you're here, shouldn't you be a guest at King Jing 'an's mansion and see the Spring Autumn Bed Armor?”
After entering Xiangfan City, Zhao Ce brought Nangong Pushe and the others to a restaurant to stay.
After lunch, Zhao Ce found a sweet potato and ordered,""Sweet Potato, go to King Jing 'an's mansion and tell him that I'm going to be a guest.”
"Yes, Young Master."
Although he was curious as to why Zhao Ce went to King Jing 'an's mansion, he did not ask further.
After answering, Sweet Potato went to the Prince of Jing 'an's mansion to convey Zhao Ce's message.
?? Zhao Ce and Zhao Heng, the King of Jing 'an, had an uncle-nephew relationship.
Zhao Heng had no reason to reject Zhao Ce's visit.
Without a doubt, Zhao Heng agreed to Zhao Ce's visit.
When Zhao Heng saw the sweet potato, he asked the sweet potato to reply that he would hold a banquet to welcome Zhao Ce to the King Jing 'an's mansion.
That afternoon, Zhao Ce had nothing better to do, so he brought Sweet Potato and the others around Xiangfan City.
In the evening, Zhao Ce brought Qing Niao to the King Jing 'an Residence.
On the way to King Jing 'an's mansion, Qing Niao couldn't help but ask curiously,""Young Master, why are you going to the King Jing 'an Mansion?”
"I heard that Zhao Heng is temperamental and not easy to get along with.”
Qing Niao was not usually a talkative person.
The reason why she said this was because she was thinking for Zhao Ce.
"I just have nothing to do. I want to go to King Jing 'an's Imperial Residence to have some fun.”
Zhao Ce knew what Qing Niao was thinking and comforted her,""You don't have to worry. With my status, Zhao Heng won't do anything to me.”
Thinking that Zhao Ce was not only Prince Lan Ling, but also the son-in-law of Northern Liang, Qing Niao nodded and said nothing.
Not long after, Zhao Ce and Qing Niao arrived at King Jing 'an's Imperial Residence.
As soon as the two of them arrived at the entrance of the Imperial Residence, they saw a middle-aged man in luxurious clothes with a noble aura standing there waiting.
The man in luxurious clothes was the King of Jing 'an, Zhao Heng.
Zhao Ce recognized Zhao Heng based on his memory.
He brought the green bird and walked straight to Zhao Heng. Then, he took the lead to greet him,"Imperial Uncle, please forgive me for disturbing you.”
Zhao Heng also knew Zhao Ce.
He smiled slightly and said," Royal Nephew, you're treating me as an outsider. I like you more than anything for coming to my residence as a guest. How can I say that you're disturbing me?"”
"If that's the case, then I'm not worried at all." Zhao Ce smiled.”
"There's no need at all."
Zhao Heng smiled brightly and waved his hand.”
Zhao Heng personally led Zhao Ce and Qing Niao into the Prince's mansion, his etiquette was very good.
Zhao Heng brought Zhao Ce and Zhao Yu to the living room.
Before that, Zhao Heng had already ordered a table full of sumptuous dishes to be prepared.
It was really a banquet for Zhao Ce.
"Royal Nephew, don't stand on ceremony. Just treat it as your own home and sit wherever you want.”
After entering the living room, Zhao Heng gestured for Zhao Ce to sit down.
Zhao Ce didn't stand on ceremony and sat down.
Qing Niao knew her manners and did not sit down. She stood obediently behind Zhao Ce.
After Zhao Heng sat down opposite Zhao Ce, he said,""Royal Nephew, is the banquet I prepared okay?”
"It's very sumptuous and not bad." Zhao Ce replied with a smile.”
"That's good." Zhao Heng nodded.”
"Let's eat now and catch up.”
Zhao Ce was not in a hurry to eat. He casually said,"Imperial uncle, are you the only one in the wang fu? Where's your wife and children? Why didn't you call them over to have a meal together?”
Zhao Heng replied,"Xun 'er is out playing and won't be back for dinner."”
"As for my wife, I've already asked the servants to call her. She should be here soon.”
"Let's eat first. We don't have to wait for her."
As soon as Zhao Heng finished speaking, a tall and beautiful woman in a colorful dress walked into the living room.
This woman was none other than Pei Nanwei.
The moment Pei Nanwei appeared, Zhao Ce and Zhao Heng both turned their gazes to the former.
Seeing Pei Nanwei for the first time, Zhao Ce's eyes flashed with surprise.
Zhao Ce sighed inwardly," As expected of a beauty on the Rouge Ranking. This Spring Autumn Beds Armor is truly beautiful. It can topple a country."”
Seeing Pei Nanwei in person, Zhao Ce felt that this trip was not in vain.
Pei Nanwei's temperament was cold and expressionless.
She walked up to Zhao Heng and bowed."Your Highness."
Zhao Heng nodded. He then pointed at Zhao Ce and introduced,"This is my nephew, Prince Lan Ling Zhao Ce.”
When Pei Nanwei heard this, she immediately turned around and bowed to Zhao Ce.""Greetings, King Lan Ling."
Zhao Ce smiled." Princess Consort, you don't have to be so polite. Please take a seat!"”
Pei Nanwei nodded lightly, then she found a middle seat and sat down.
Seeing that Pei Nanwei was intentionally keeping a distance from Zhao Heng, Zhao Ce thought to himself,""This Pei Nanwei and Zhao Heng's relationship really isn't very good!”
Zhao Heng could also tell that Pei Nanwei was deliberately sitting far away. He was unhappy, but because Zhao Ce was here, he did not flare up.
"Since everyone is here, let's start eating!" Zhao Ce said with a smile.”
"Alright," Zhao Heng agreed.
Then, the three of them began to eat.
The green bird also came and poured wine for Zhao Ce.
Zhao Ce said to Zhao Heng,""Imperial Uncle, with your magnanimity, you shouldn't mind letting my personal handmaiden sit down and eat with you, right?”
Zhao Heng was a person who liked to talk about seniority.
?? He would never let someone of low status sit at the same table as him.
Zhao Heng didn't want to agree to Zhao Ce's suggestion.
But after a moment of hesitation, he nodded.
"Since you're my nephew's person, you can do it.”
Zhao Heng's words were hinting that he was giving Zhao Ce face.
Zhao Ce smiled knowingly and flattered Zhao Heng.
"Imperial Uncle is indeed magnanimous."
"Qingniao, sit down!"
The green bird hesitated.
Zhao Ce turned to look at the green bird, his eyes indicating that the latter was fine.
Qing Niao understood and sat down beside Zhao Ce.
Zhao Ce personally poured a glass of wine for Qing Niao and said gently,""Make yourself at home, don't be so formal."
"Yes."
The green bird nodded and began to eat.
Then, the four of them started eating together.
At this banquet, Qing Niao and Pei Nanwei treated themselves as if they were invisible. Other than eating, they barely spoke.
Only Zhao Ce and Zhao Heng chatted as they ate.
"Royal nephew, why did you suddenly come to Qingzhou?”
"I'm going to Northern Liang and happened to pass by Qingzhou, so I came to visit you, Imperial Uncle.”
Hearing Zhao Ce say that he was going to Northern Liang, Zhao Heng seemed to be suddenly energized and raised his eyebrows.
"Royal nephew, what are you going to Northern Liang for?”Zhao Heng asked curiously.
"I'm going to see my father-in-law," Zhao Ce replied with a smile.”
"Oh, I see."
Zhao Heng's face revealed a look of realization, but his eyes flashed with a cunning light.
