Zhou Xianzong unexpectedly transmigrated into a novel, becoming the story's main villain who is destined to be crushed by the protagonist at the start.
Luckily, he awakened a Major Villai...
Chapter 158 This young man's temperament is too outstanding.
"Good job, you did a great job."
"Thank you for your kind words, Your Highness."
Hao Danteng smiled smugly, and then spoke.
"Your Highness, I have already ordered that a private room be prepared and a banquet be held to welcome you back. I hope Your Highness will not refuse."
"Once it's done, you can send someone to invite me."
Zhou Xianzong readily agreed.
"Yes, Your Highness, please rest well. I will take my leave now."
Hao Danteng said respectfully.
"etc."
Zhou Xianzong called out to him.
"Your Highness, is there anything else you require?"
Hao Danteng asked, puzzled.
"I've heard that there's a family surnamed Ye in Yincheng?"
Zhou Xianzong asked directly.
Hao Danteng was puzzled upon hearing this.
It is true that the Ye family is a prominent family in Yincheng, but that is only true within Yincheng.
How could someone as high and mighty as Zhou Xianzong suddenly pay attention to such a family?
Could it be that the Ye family inadvertently offended His Highness, which is why His Highness came to Silver City on purpose?
If that's true, then the Ye family truly deserves to die.
It's no wonder Hao Danteng thinks so much. For someone like him, a subject, if he doesn't think much and isn't quick-witted, even with great strength, he wouldn't be able to reach this position; he could only be a henchman.
"Your Highness, there is a Ye family in the city, and the head of the family is named Ye Qing."
Hao Danteng answered truthfully.
Upon hearing the name "Ye Qing," Zhou Xianzong's body trembled.
He suddenly realized something; no wonder the Ye family name sounded so familiar.
It was him!
Zhou Xianzong quickly pressed for an answer.
"Does Ye Qing have a son named Ye Jian, who has an exceptional talent for swordsmanship?"
This question left Hao Danteng even more bewildered.
He couldn't understand how Zhou Xianzong knew so much.
The Ye family does indeed have a Ye Jian, whose swordsmanship talent is astonishing. He broke through to the Celestial Realm at the age of twenty, and now he has reached an unknown and terrifying level.
Could it be that Your Highness has come because you have heard of Ye Jian's talent and wish to recruit him into your ranks?
"Your Highness, there is indeed a young man named Ye Jian whose talent is truly outstanding; he is the number one genius in Silver City."
Hao Danteng nodded.
Zhou Xianzong's lips twitched.
It really is him, Ye Jian.
The reason Zhou Xianzong had an impression of the Ye family was because of Ye Jian.
He is the second male lead.
He possesses exceptional talent, second only to Xiao Potian, and is also a sword fanatic.
To sum him up in one sentence: He has no woman in his heart, so when he draws his sword, he is naturally divine.
Yes, his heart was only for the sword.
Furthermore, the plot also revealed that Zhou Xianzong first clashed with the Ye family, and the two sides had a blood feud, which ultimately led to Ye Jian and Xiao Potian joining forces.
Zhou Xianzong also led Yingxi back to the prepared room.
He immediately took out his diary.
[I never expected that passing through Yincheng would lead me to run into the family of Ye Jian, the second male lead. I was a bit surprised, but also a bit curious. What the hell happened between me and the Ye family that made Ye Jian so determined to fight me to the death?]
Hmm... I'm having dinner with the Ye family tonight. Could it be that the conflict will start at the banquet?
However, the Ye family is, after all, the family of the second male lead. They wouldn't be so stupid as to openly provoke me, considering my status.
[But if we're talking about conflicts of interest, there's nothing in this little Silver City that I'd even consider.]
[I'm so curious, like ants are crawling all over me! The story hasn't even told me what happened to me in Silver City yet, but we should find out tonight.]
After finishing his diary, Zhou Xianzong began to look forward to it.
The female leads also saw it immediately.
Luo Le'er was also a little surprised.
Thinking to myself, "There's something you don't know?"
You think you know everything from astronomy to geography? Hmph, this time you're stumped.
This guy is really fast; it hasn't been long at all, and he's already arrived in Silver City.
Does that mean he'll have a lot of great girls at his banquet tonight?
This made Luo Le'er frown. This guy has never been able to control his lust. Will he fall in love with every girl he sees again?
On the other side, Yingxi finally understood.
Why was Zhou Xianzong so concerned about the Ye family?
So it was because of Ye Jian.
What puzzled her even more was why, knowing there would be a conflict, they still chose to meet with the Ye family.
Why not just avoid it?
In fact, as long as things can develop smoothly, Zhou Xianzong would not mind even if it meant conflict or taking his life.
at the same time.
Hao Danteng immediately ordered that all the prominent figures in Yincheng be invited to attend tonight's banquet.
Ye Jian was specifically mentioned.
Since His Highness cares so much about Ye Jian, he must value his talent.
Since that's the case, why not summon him and let His Highness take a good look?
"Not just the personal guards, everyone in the manor should increase patrols tonight. We must not allow any accidents to happen."
Hao Danteng looked at his wife and said.
"Okay, I'll arrange it in a bit."
Hao readily agreed.
"As long as we serve His Highness well and make him satisfied, His Highness will speak well of us to His Majesty, and we will enjoy endless wealth and honor. Promotion and titles will be within our grasp. At least tonight, we don't seek merit but only to avoid mistakes."
Hao Danteng said in a deep voice.
Mrs. Hao also understood the seriousness of the matter.
After the discussion, the two went about their own business.
As night fell, the prominent figures of Silver City arrived at the City Lord's Mansion.
They had all heard that a very important person was visiting Yincheng today, but the news had been kept very well hidden.
To this day, they still don't know who it is.
This made everyone even more curious. What kind of background did they have that could make the City Lord's Mansion act like this?
Once all the guests had arrived, someone was sent to inform Emperor Zhou Xianzong.
"Your Highness, everyone has arrived. The city lord specifically asked me to inform you that we are waiting for your arrival."
Let's go.
Without further ado, Zhou Xianzong, led by his maid, headed straight for the back garden.
At this moment, the place is filled with people dressed in fine clothes, chatting and laughing. Any one of them could make Silver City tremble with a stomp of their foot.
When everyone saw Zhou Xianzong arrive, they were all taken aback.
It was a young man!
However, this young man's temperament was too outstanding. Standing there, he seemed to be the center of the world, giving people an extremely elegant feeling.
He seems to possess some kind of magic, making it difficult for anyone not to notice him.
Furthermore, Zhou Xianzong was handsome and talented, which not only amazed some important figures, but also made some young girls admire him and want to get to know him.
Even the most talented people in Silver City felt inferior to him.
"Lord Hao, you told me a long time ago that an important person was coming today. I wonder who this young master is that you would invite us old bones here?"
Someone asked idly.
Hao Danteng replied loudly.
"Old Li, this is His Highness the Crown Prince of our Zhou Dynasty."
These words exploded like a bombshell in the crowd.
Everyone present gasped in shock, their hearts pounding.
The young girls were even more enamored, their hearts fluttering.
No wonder this young man is so outstanding; he is none other than His Highness the Crown Prince.
If you get along well with her, wouldn't you have a chance to become the Crown Princess?
At this moment, there was no need for the old men and women to remind their daughters; they couldn't help but want to go up and chat with them.
Some geniuses who had previously wanted to compete with Zhou Xianzong gave up the idea after learning of Zhou Xianzong's identity.
It is said that the crown prince's talent was exceptional, even by Zhou Dynasty standards.
