The emperor was annoyed by the noise, so he simply refused to see anyone and hid in the harem to enjoy some leisure time.
This has been tough for Eunuch Dexi, as he has offended many people in recent days.
Seeing that the eldest prince of Beidi, Huyan Sui, was getting closer and closer to the capital, the other officials didn't know what the emperor was thinking, so they could only receive him first.
When Hu Yansui entered the capital, many people came out to watch.
The appearance of the Beidi people and the Jiang people is quite different. In Han Xiao's opinion, the Beidi people are more like some modern ethnic minorities.
The eldest prince Hu Yansui rode a tall grassland horse that was as tall as a small mountain.
He is not fat, but what is commonly known as fat-wrapped muscles in modern times. He is tall and strong, and his sharp hairstyle makes him look like someone who is not to be messed with.
The young master was terrified and whispered to Han Xiao: "Sir, are all the Northern Di people so strange?"
Xing Yi is also a mixed-race of Northern Di people, but not so ugly, the young master thought with disdain.
Han Xiao helplessly pulled the young master's hair and told him not to judge people by appearance, but the young master was right, the eldest prince was indeed not very good-looking.
Hu Yansui rode past with an expressionless face. The road was filled with the whispers of the civilians. His Central Plains dialect was very ordinary, but judging from their expressions, they probably didn't say anything nice.
If his father had not said that he must seek help from Jiang State, he would have wanted to kill all these civilians long ago.
Hu Yansui reluctantly suppressed the murderous intent in his heart and began to look for the little beauty in the crowd out of boredom.
The Northern Di people like women from the Central Plains the most. They are white, soft and fragrant, and much smaller than their Northern Di women.
But now he can only enjoy the sight and dare not act rashly. Beidi is now under attack from all sides and must not cause trouble again.
Huyansui tried hard to comfort himself, thinking that he should first solve the problem of Huyancuo, and then he could have any kind of beauty he wanted in the future.
However, the moment he saw the young master, Hu Yansui could no longer conceal the lust in his eyes.
Han Xiao was standing next to the young master and saw everything clearly. He immediately blocked the young master's way and looked back at him with a cold look.
Hu Yansui was stunned when he saw Han Xiao, and then he showed a provocative smile. He was just a lowly poor man. There was no one that Hu Yansui could not get who he wanted.
Han Xiao held the young master in his arms to cover his cheeks, cursing in his heart: This Hu Yansui is not a good guy.
The young master was unaware and didn't know why his husband suddenly blocked him.
But the young master didn't ask, he just leaned on Han Xiao's chest cooperatively.
Han Xiao still had a cold face until Hu Yansui walked away.
"What's wrong, husband?" He was fine just now, why does he look so scary now? The young master touched Han Xiao's face with heartache.
Don't care that it's outside.
Han Xiao pulled the young master's hand down and let out a sigh, pretending nothing happened: "It's okay, dear, let's go home first today, okay?"
The young master wanted to come and watch the fun early this morning, and Han Xiao would not have any problems in broad daylight.
But after noticing Hu Yansui's disgusting look, Han Xiao became uncertain. He regretted very much why he didn't put a veil on the young master when he went out.
But it's no use regretting it now, it's better if Hu Yansui doesn't do anything small, otherwise...
A cold light flashed in Han Xiao's eyes. He didn't mind at all that Hu Yansui returned as a corpse.
However, this incident also gave Han Xiao a warning, making him more certain that Beidi's purpose of coming this time was definitely not simply to seek peace. He was afraid that after Jiang Kingdom helped them this time, they would turn around and bite him back.
Unable to bear the excitement any longer, the young master also lost interest when he saw how ugly Huyan Sui Zhang was, so the two of them simply went home.
In the evening, Chu Jinglin sent someone to convey a message that the emperor had set up a palace banquet to entertain the Beidi royal family, and both Han Xiao and the young master had to go.
Han Xiao didn't want to attend the palace banquet at all, but he also understood that the emperor wanted to see the young master and Chaochao and the others under the pretext of the palace banquet.
In this way, Han Xiao had no choice but to go to the palace banquet. After Han Mingyuan came back, he was ready to go with Han Xiao. The father and son were both invited, one was an official appointed by the court, and the other was a newly promoted marquis.
The reception of the Beidi royal family was the responsibility of Zhang Yuanzhong, the Minister of Rites. Zhang Yuanzhong was now tied to the second prince, and had ample opportunity to collude with him.
Han Xiao was still thinking about this matter when he brought the young master and Chaochao to the palace banquet. The young master looked at Han Xiao's thoughtful expression and knew that he was still worried about Hu Yansui's matter.
She gently held Han Xiao's hand and approached him: "Husband, are you still thinking about Beidi?"
Han Xiao turned around and saw the worried young master. He felt warm in his heart and moved Chao Chao in his arms closer to him: "No, are you bored?"
They came quite early this time, and the palace banquet had not yet begun. At the banquet, three or two people gathered together to discuss the purpose of Beidi's visit.
Han Xiao began to feel bored. He was not familiar with these officials. Occasionally, a few who wanted to get close to him were scared away by Han Xiao's aura of rejecting approach.
Not to mention the young master, who was completely covered by Han Xiao's protection circle.
The young master did see a few familiar friends, but the palace banquet was no different from any other place, so he could only nod and greet them.
Soon, more and more people came to the palace banquet, including the envoy from Beidi. The envoy from Beidi was a shrewd and capable old man. Han Xiao lost interest after taking a look at him.
Hu Yansui followed behind the old man, obviously respecting him very much.
Ever since Hu Yansui came in, Han Xiao sat up straight and blocked the young master's body.
Hu Yansui swaggered in, found a seat, sat down, and began to stare at the palace maids and the wives of other officials who were passing by with obscene eyes.
The old man seemed to know Hu Yansui's character and coughed lightly to make him pay attention.
Although Hu Yansui was reluctant, he had to mention the old man's words. He didn't know what he said to the old man, but he sat down obediently and drank depressedly.
Han Xiao continued to look at him warily.
As the eunuch shouted: "Your Majesty has arrived..."
Everyone knelt down. Han Xiao was worried that the young master would feel uncomfortable kneeling, so he prepared cushions in advance.
"Your Majesty, may you be well..."
The emperor walked in with a smile, sat down in the main seat, and then waved his hand and said, "Everyone, stand up. This is a welcoming banquet for the Northern Di envoys. You all should relax a little."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
After Han Xiao stood up, he whispered to the young master if he felt unwell. The young master was very proud and had never knelt before anyone. This was also the reason why Han Xiao did not like the young master to come to the palace.
