Chapter 1324: Xiang Family Banquet 10
The Xiyan chariot was pulled by four purebred horses, their ornaments gleaming brightly in the sunlight. The chariot's body was crafted from precious sandalwood, carved with Xiyan's unique cloud pattern, and inlaid with glittering gems.
As the breeze blew, the golden canopy on the roof fluttered gently, demonstrating its incomparable nobility and luxury.
The carriage curtain was slowly opened by a slender jade-like hand, and Xiliuyuan got out of the carriage. He was as tall and straight as a pine tree, with graceful and calm steps. He was wearing a black brocade robe embroidered with delicate silver patterns, which shimmered faintly in the sunlight.
Xiliuyuan looked like a banished immortal walking out of an ink painting, exuding an otherworldly aura and the ultimate in elegance and nobility.
There was a slight exclamation from the crowd, and everyone's attention was attracted by Xiliuyuan's style.
Everyone in the world knows that Prince Xiyan is a young genius and unparalleled in handsomeness, but very few people have seen him, making him truly beyond the reach of others.
Even those knowledgeable and experienced people in the martial arts world could not help but secretly admire in their hearts that the Prince of Xiyan was indeed an extraordinary person.
The team of envoys from Nanyuan also caught up from the rear. Prince Yu got off the car. With Prince Xiyan in front, no one noticed Prince Yu and his group behind.
The prince of Wanwang Mansion, Wan Weijing, had a gloomy face. He really couldn't understand why Prince Yu would disregard the royal family's reputation and come to a banquet in a small mansion.
Xiliuyuan walked towards the Xiang family’s gate.
The butler hurried forward.
Sang Qi was in charge of receiving the envoys. Since the envoys had not yet gone to the palace, he could not leave without permission. He stepped forward and told the housekeeper his purpose. The housekeeper glanced at the long line of envoys and immediately ran to the inner courtyard to report.
Soon, Xiang Minghou and Zhan Yi came out.
Xiang Minghou was no longer a court official of Beili. He used his martial arts skills against Sang Qi and continued to do so towards Xiliuyuan.
"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Zhan Yi saluted.
"No need to be so polite." Sang Qixu gave him a helping hand and did not take Xiang Minghou's attitude to heart.
Zhan Yi stood up and bowed to Xi Liuyuan again: "I believe this is the Crown Prince of Xiyan."
Xiliuyuan nodded slightly as a greeting.
"The envoys from Xiyan and Nanyuan came to the capital, but instead of resting in the temporary palace, they came to my small family, the Xiang family. I am afraid that I may not be able to entertain them well and cause trouble." Xiang Minghou said bluntly.
Zhan Yi glared at Xiang Minghou secretly, with cold sweat on his forehead. He followed him out just because he was afraid that he would say something wrong. He was really afraid of what he would say.
"I heard that the Xiang family was hosting a banquet, so I came uninvited. I hope Master Xiang won't be offended." Xiliuyuan spoke gently.
"That's right. I'm here to ask for some wine too. I hope the Xiang family won't be unwelcome." Prince Yu said with a smile.
"Of course you are welcome. Guests are welcome, of course." Zhan Yi agreed with a smile, turning his head and glaring at Ming Hou in warning.
Xiang Minghou ignored the warning and said loudly, "Of course we welcome them. However, envoys entering the capital has always been strictly prohibited. My Xiang family mostly entertains people from the martial arts world. If the envoy were to encounter an accident at home, we would not want to be blamed for affecting the friendship between the two countries."
Xiliuyuan still had a faint smile on his face, not taking Xiang Minghou's words to heart at all: "Master Xiang is worrying too much. If something happens to the envoy in Beili Capital, wouldn't the Beili guards be too incompetent?"
Zhan Yi: “…”
"Prince Beili, do you agree?" Xiliuyuan asked.
Sang Qi said coldly, "Beili will ensure the envoy's safety."
