Chapter 5319 (1/2)
”Chu Di is kind!”
The people got up and saluted. The Chu emperor smiled, raised his hand and motioned them to sit down.
”Have a banquet!”
The emperor of Chu said a word to the old eunuch around him.
”Your Majesty's grace! Have a banquet!”
The old eunuch waved the dust and shouted at his throat.
Immediately outside the door, there was a fairy like palace maid, floating in the air, dragging a jade plate with fragrant delicacies and drinks, which were sent to each martial artist's long and low table.
Plates of delicacies were placed in front of Lin Bai. Lin Bai looked at them carefully. Most of them were meat, and some were green vegetables made of some miraculous drugs.
But Lin Bai is not a martial artist who likes to eat, so he doesn't know much about the delicious dishes in the imperial capital and can't name them.
Yi Gu sat down and picked up his chopsticks and put on a plate of food. He then took a bite and met two dishes that he had enjoyed. He make complaints about his vomit.
Lin Bai is not very interested in delicious food. Instead, he is more interested in the wine in the wine pot.
He picked up the wine pot and brought himself a glass of wine.
When the wine leaves the pot, it is like a spring sliding down, emitting a pungent fragrance.
Lin Bai tasted it. It tastes delicate, silky and light. It also belongs to sake. However, the sake in shenxianlou is delicious.
All in all, it's not bad. It's not that bad.
In the East celestial palace, many martial arts people eat and drink. The emperor of Chu occasionally took the elders of five families and seven sects to chat.
In the whole fairy palace, I'm afraid only the elders of five families and seven sects are qualified to talk and laugh with the Chu emperor. The rest of the martial arts are not worthy to speak.
At the banquet below the emperor of Chu, in addition to the disciples of the five families and seven sects, the Zhao criminal division and the general of the military headquarters of King chaining, there were also large and small officials of the six departments of the chaotang, three gongs and nine Qings present.
”Your majesty!”
At this time, a white haired, dying old minister stood up and bowed to the top with a smile.
This man opened his mouth and attracted the attention of many martial artists.
Even Lin Bai couldn't help raising his head and looking at it.
The old man, sitting under the Chu emperor, is the head of the civil service. It is obvious that he has a very noble position in the court hall!
The Chu emperor smiled and asked, ”Zuo Xiang, what's the matter? Are today's dishes and wine not to your taste?”
Two prime ministers were set up in the court of the state of Chu and under the emperor of Chu.
Zuo Xiang is the first civil servant.
The right phase is the first military officer.
However, because there are six departments, the power of the left and right phases is divided by the six departments. Although they are extreme ministers and belong to the three public, most of the time they are empty positions and have no real power.
Therefore, most of the time, the left and right phases are held by well-known martial artists among civil and military officials.
For example, immediately this Zuo Xiang, who was once the Minister of rites and one of the vice presidents of Bailu academy, had worked for thousands of years in the Chu Dynasty.
And he used to be the prince and Fu. In short, he used to be the teacher of the Chu emperor!
Originally, he was going to return to his hometown and live a healthy life, but he was appreciated by the emperor of Chu and promoted him to Zuo Xiang and the head of civil servants!
Zuo Xiang smiled and smoothed the white goat beard and said, ”no, No. I think his highness King Chen should be rewarded for his great contribution to killing the devil of the blood god cult in Kezhou.”
”But the old man sat here, waiting left and right, but he didn't get the decree of his highness King Chen?” Zuo Xiang asked Chu emperor with a bitter smile.
This sentence immediately aroused thousands of waves.
If others dared to speak against the Chu emperor, I'm afraid they would have died thousands of times.
His highness King Chen quickly got up and said, ”old Zhao, you misunderstood. When my father was in the palace, he had already granted a reward!”
The Chu emperor interrupted his highness King Chen with a smile and asked Zuo Xiang, ”how do Zuo Xiang think to seal the reward?”
