I guess he was also troubled by this evil.
"Junior Ying Wuji pays homage to His Majesty the King of Chu!"
Ying Wuji arrived at the door and bowed politely.
Putting aside the fact that the King of Chu is Mi Xingli's future boss, he is also Mi Xingli's biological father. He can't act like a big shot. He still has to show proper etiquette.
When the King of Chu heard the voice, he immediately stood up with a smile, went out personally, and took Ying Wuji's wrist with a smile: "Wuji, no need to be so polite! Come in and sit down. There were a lot of things to do during the last Jiuzhou Festival, and we didn't have a chance to have a good chat. Today you must accompany your uncle for a drink."
As he spoke, he pulled Ying Wuji to the dining table.
The attitude is so affectionate, even towards one's own son.
Just sat down.
The King of Chu shouted behind the screen, "Little Bear, bring up some wine."
Little bear?
Ying Wuji was stunned for a moment, not knowing what the King of Chu was talking about.
“Here it comes!”
A familiar voice sounded from behind the screen, and soon Mi Xingli came up with a wine tray.
Today, Mi Xingli did not wear the loose robe as usual.
Instead, she was wearing a palace dress, a proper princess outfit, less of a female gangster's temperament, and more of the nobility and charm of a princess.
This kind of dress can't hide her voluptuous figure at all.
Little bear?
Ying Wuji became more and more confused, and it felt like it was quite something!
However, he quickly realized that the royal family of Chu was surnamed Mi and Xiong. To other clans with the surname Mi, they called themselves Xiong to show their identity as the founder of Chu. However, Xiong was weak and was regarded as barbarians by the Central Plains dynasty, so they called themselves Mi to show that they were descendants of Zhuanxu Gaoyang.
So was King Mi Duo of Chu, and so was Mi Xingli.
Therefore, Mi Xingli can also be called Xiong Xingli.
It’s normal to call him Little Bear.
The bear is big enough, but not small.
Mi Xingli seemed to feel Ying Wuji's fleeting gaze and felt her cheeks getting a little hot.
So weird.
Are you actually shy?
It must be because he was not used to wearing the palace dress, and it had nothing to do with Ying Wuji.
She was a little annoyed, but since Mi Duo was sitting aside, she could only pour the wine obediently and push one of the glasses in front of Ying Wuji.
Mi Duo picked up the wine glass and laughed: "Wuji has traveled a long way to come to Chu to help. This noble act is witnessed by all. As your uncle, I am very grateful. This glass of wine is in your honor!"
Ying Wuji smiled and said, "I should be the one to show my respect to my uncle. This is the first time I've had a hot meal since leaving Li."
"It's really troublesome for you to thank me all the time. I'll drink first."
Mi Xingli pursed her lips, picked up the wine glass, clinked glasses with the two men, and drank it all in one gulp.
After he touched her like that, the originally somewhat serious atmosphere suddenly became a lot more relaxed.
Mi Duo did not mention any official business. He treated Ying Wuji like an elder, asking him about his well-being and checking his homework from time to time, with satisfaction in his eyes not concealed at all.
After three rounds of drinking, he asked with a smile: "Wuji, what are your plans for the future? I heard from Xingli that you are quite interested in Chu State, and our Chu State also needs you. Uncle is not a businessman and does not like to bargain, so I told you directly.
The position of marshal is a bit high and cannot be given to you in a short time, but as long as you show your ability to lead troops, your uncle will do his best to help you get the position.
However, the Chu court is quite exclusive, so it may not be appropriate to only accept foreign ministers. It depends on what status you have entered the Chu court with. "
Speaking of.
He glanced at Mi Xingli intentionally or unintentionally.
Mi Xingli looked calm, but her heartbeat quickened. Although she had anticipated this scene, and had been trying her best to bring it about, at this critical moment, the excitement in her heart was more about personal gain than official business.
After all, Ying Wuji is still quite likable.
And his body... is very strong.
As long as Ying Wuji nods, it won't be long before the two of them will be sleeping in the same bed.
It feels a little weird and a little embarrassing.
Her eyes flashed and she subconsciously looked at Ying Wuji.
The eyes are somewhat moving.
Ying Wuji couldn't bear it anymore, so he took a deep breath, picked up the wine bowl and stood up: "The King of Chu is respectful to the wise and humble, he is truly a hero of the time. Wuji has been wandering for half his life, and I only regret that I have never met a wise master. If the King of Chu doesn't abandon me..."
Mi Xingli: (*?ω?)
Is it coming?
Ying Wuji paused and said: "Wuji is willing to be your godfather!"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the mansion suddenly became quiet.
Mi Duo: “…”
Mi Xingli: "..."
The corners of her mouth trembled. This kid...did he say a wrong word?
Mi Duo's smile remained unchanged, and he looked at Ying Wuji meaningfully: "Just being a foster father is probably not enough! I heard that you have a close relationship with Xing Li, and Xing Li even gave you the reincarnation worm I gave her. What? Don't you want to marry her?"
Ying Wuji sighed softly: "This young lady is stunningly beautiful, intelligent, and loyal. Which man in the world wouldn't want to marry her? It's just that..."
Mi Xingli quickly smiled and tried to smooth things over: "Father! Although Wuji is young, he has a lot of experience. He may have some trauma from the word 'father-in-law'. He may not be comparable to foster father, so..."
"That's true! King Li is blind and has ruined a good marriage for our Chu State."
Mi Duo laughed loudly, and there was no blame in his eyes when he looked at Ying Wuji: "I have also heard some of your affairs from Xingli. Now your wife and children are locked up in the Li Palace. Even if I make you the consort of the Great Chu, you may not really feel at ease.
Time is the best medicine for improving one's character. As time goes by, you will naturally understand that Chu is the place where you can realize your ambitions.
