Chapter 263: Let My Son Lose Face

The atmosphere in the tent was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, and it felt a bit eerie.

Manguda and his companions looked at the couple with extraordinary aura, and suddenly understood why Murong Chen hosted a banquet for them.

The identities of these two people must be extraordinary!

After a struggle in his heart, Murong Hongyi picked up his wine glass and stood up.

He looked coldly at Jiang Ruo and Xiao Chengjin across from him, "It was my own impulsiveness today that caused me to offend these two distinguished guests."

"I would like to take this opportunity to apologize to you and your wife. I will drink first as a token of my respect."

Murong Hongyi drank the wine in his glass and sat back in his seat with an angry look on his face.

Jiang Ruo and Xiao Chengjin looked at Murong Hongyi's expression and raised their eyebrows.

Prince Yi gritted his teeth when he apologized, and it was obvious that he was not convinced.

They are not petty people, so just forgive him!

Jiang Ruo nudged Xiao Chengjin with her elbow, signaling him to speak.

Xiao Chengjin had a cold expression on his handsome face. "Since Prince Yi's mistake was unintentional, my husband and I will naturally not hold it against you and forgive you." There was a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

The veins on Murong Hongyi's forehead were throbbing, and his patience had reached its limit.

You should just quit while you are ahead, why are you being so aggressive?

Doesn’t this prince have any dignity?

Jiang Ruo looked at Murong Hongyi, who was about to get angry, and curled the corners of her lips.

Are you angry now?

You are too petty!

Jiang Ruo coughed lightly and said in a deliberately instructive tone, "Prince Yi, don't make a bet lightly before you know the other party's strength."

"After all, if I lose again next time, I might lose my arm."

Upon hearing this, Murong Hongyi stood up suddenly.

He looked at Jiang Ruo with resentment, and roared in a distorted voice: "You, you...you're going too far."

Jiang Ruo shrank back and moved closer to Xiao Chengjin.

"Husband, am I wrong?"

Xiao Chengjin gently stroked Jiang Ruo's back and comforted her, "Ruoruo, you're right. Some people just don't know what's good for them."

Sure enough... he deserves a beating!

Murong Chen looked at the impatient Murong Hongyi and shouted sternly, "Shouting and yelling, how disrespectful!"

Murong Hongyi's eyes flashed with fear, and he stammered, "Father Khan, your son..."

Except for Manguda, everyone present had a look of watching the fun.

This couple is so powerful that they can control Prince Yi like this.

Man Zhuoya closed her eyes to hide the anger surging in them.

This couple is truly despicable.

My son lost all face and prestige...

After she opened her eyes, she looked at Murong Hongyi with a look of disappointment, "Yier, Madam Xiao is right."

"From now on, never make a bet easily." Man Zhuoya said, looking at Jiang Ruo coldly.

At this moment, under Murong Chen's warning, Murong Hongyi quickly calmed down.

He restrained his expression and said to Manzhuoya, "Yes, Khatun, I will follow your instructions."

Jiang Ruo felt that if she continued talking, the delicious roasted whole lamb might get cold.

"Khan, can we..." Jiang Ruo said, pointing to the roasted whole lamb in front of him.

Murong Chen waved his hand and said, "Let's start the banquet!"

"I want to eat lamb legs and ribs..." Jiang Ruo rubbed his hands.

Xiao Chengjin looked at Jiang Ruo who was swallowing her saliva and smiled dotingly.

He picked up the dagger on the tray and silently cut the mutton for Jiang Ruo.

"Ruoruo, eat quickly!"

"Thank you!" Jiang Ruo smiled with her eyes curved. She picked up a piece of roasted lamb and put it in her mouth. "Delicious!"

The people present looked at this heartwarming scene and suddenly felt that the roasted lamb in front of them was no longer fragrant.

The atmosphere in the tent relaxed a lot.

During this period, Murong Chen also asked about Xiao Fenghuang and the capital city in a roundabout way.

In view of the delicious taste of the roasted whole lamb, Jiang Ruo tried to show off Little Phoenix's ability and made up some stories about the capital.

Murong Chen got so much information easily, and he was so happy that he drank a few more glasses of wine.

Manguda and the others were not idle either, taking turns to urge Xiao Chengjin to drink.

"Mr. Xiao, welcome you and your wife to the Salo tribe. I, Manguda, would like to offer you a drink." Manguda said, raising his head and drinking the wine in the glass.

At the same time, he gave Murong Hongyi a look that said "Uncle will deal with him for you."

Xiao Chengjin picked up the wine glass and drank it.

"My husband and I have already told the Khan that we will buy any cattle and sheep from the Salo tribe as long as you sell them." Xiao Chengjin said, looking at the five people.

He knew something about the situation of the Salo tribe. If he guessed correctly, they were the heads of the five major nobles.

Great! When they heard that there was business to discuss, they all put down their glasses.

During the conversation, they speculated that the couple might be wealthy businessmen from Dayan.

They became excited at the thought of selling their cattle and sheep for silver.

After all, no one would have a grudge against silver.

The atmosphere became increasingly heated.

After agreeing on the price, Murong Chen said in a deep voice, "Three days later, we'll hand over the silver and the goods."

"It's settled then." Xiao Chengjin responded.

After eating and drinking, Jiang Ruo and Xiao Chengjin left the palace tent and rode their horses straight to the woman's house.

Wei Ming stood outside the tent, looking forward to it. When he saw Jiang Ruo and the other two returning on horseback, he shouted, "Mother, my brother and sister are back."
