Chapter 2340: If something goes wrong, there will be a demon
Behind one of the tables was Yan Qingchen. At this moment, he slowly raised his head, and Pei Yuanhao also raised his head, his eyes facing him.
At this moment, I felt that time seemed to be frozen.
Both of them looked very calm, their deep eyes seemed like a bottomless deep pool, and they could not see any fluctuations on the calm water surface. However, when I approached Pei Yuanhao, I could clearly feel that his breathing became heavy at this moment; and Qingchen, his usual pale, had a little more solemnity on his face.
The atmosphere was obviously very congested, but I felt inexplicably sparks in the air.
The people on both sides, including the officials behind Pei Yuanhao, were all facing each other quietly. There were so many people in the huge hall, but they could even hear the sound of a needle falling to the ground.
I just looked at each other, but I felt that there were already thousands of troops fighting in front of me.
No one spoke, and no one seemed to dare to speak.
I don’t know how long it took, but I finally cleared my throat and said calmly: “Your Majesty, this one is my younger brother, Yan Qingchen, the head of the Yan family; Qingchen, this one is His Majesty the Emperor.”
As soon as I opened my mouth, there seemed to be a little more fluctuations on the faces of the two people, and even the tight air just now eased a little.
Pei Yuanhao stepped forward: "The Lord of Xichuan, long-awaited to be famous."
Yan Qingchen also looked up at him: "The Lord of the Central Plains has failed to welcome him."
I kept hearing the two of them talking, and a depressed gasp came from behind me, and I could see some people's tense bodies twitching slightly. It seemed that there was no sound in the lobby just now because everyone was waiting for them to speak, and the tense atmosphere made them dare not breathe.
Once you open your mouth, you will determine the position and atmosphere of each other during this meeting.
However, from the first sentence they said just now, there was no emotion. Not only Pei Yuanhao, but Qingchen also had no expression of joy and anger.
The eyes of the two people met again, and this time, the thunderous force of the previous one was missing.
But there is a little sharpness of needles hidden in the cotton.
Every glance of the two of them looked at each other, every sentence, every word, and even every step forward, was a test of each other.
It’s not that I have experienced that kind of tense atmosphere and important occasions, but it has never been so difficult for me to display as I am now. Standing between the two of them, I feel that breathing is a bit difficult.
At this time, Qingchen raised his hand again and said, "Prepare a little thin wine and thin vegetables, and I hope you don't push it away."
Pei Yuanhao walked forward slowly and said, "At this rashly, Mr. Yan is intent."
After saying that, he had already walked behind another table, then turned to look at Yan Qingchen.
The rules of the Central Plains are not very similar to those of Xichuan, and even the posture of sitting and dining etiquette are different. But he walked over but did not sit down, but waited for Yan Qingchen. He obviously knew the etiquette on Xichuan. On important occasions, if two master seats are placed, the host and important guest should sit together.
It seems that during the period he entered Xichuan, he was not just "traveling around the mountains and rivers".
I could feel that he lowered his posture a little, but because of this, these people in Shu became cautious. No one said anything casually, and there was not even a loud sound of gasping. Yan Qingchen saw him looking at him, so he slowly held the armrests on both sides of the wheelchair. The follower behind him immediately stepped forward to support him, but he immediately reached out to block it.
I hurried over: "Qingchen!"
He looked up at me, with a faint smile on his lips: "Sister, don't worry."
He never left that wheelchair, but this time he was sitting with Pei Yuanhao, and he was about to get out of the wheelchair.
Although he has always shown no concern for his illness, in fact, even if he can only spend his life in a wheelchair, it is much more useful than many people with all their limbs, I can still feel that he is unwilling to show weakness in front of others.
Especially this person, Pei Yuanhao.
I reached out to hold his arm and whispered: "I'll do it."
He looked up at me, I clenched his arm, and after a moment of silence, he smiled slightly: "Okay."
I grabbed his arm hard, reached out to support him with one hand, and let him stand up slowly. I felt that he was so thin that his bones were rising high, almost hurting me, and he didn't feel any sense of his legs. He slowly moved out of the wheelchair and then slowly knelt down.
On the other side, Pei Yuanhao also sat down.
I gasped slightly, looked down at Qingchen, his forehead was covered with sweat, I reached out to wipe it away gently, and he said softly: "Sister, sit next to me."
"Um."
I nodded and sat beside him.
Then he raised his head and raised his hand to the old patriarchs standing in the lobby and the officials brought by Pei Yuanhao, saying, "Please sit down."
The old patriarchs naturally returned to their tables immediately. However, the officials waited for Pei Yuanhao to wave his hands before walking to the other seats and took their seats according to their grades.
I looked up and saw that although the sky was fine at this time, the sunset shone on the door of the lobby, and I could clearly see the expressions on everyone's face, but not only because, it was a deep and unpredictable feeling, probably because the expressions on everyone's face were very heavy.
Some of the old patriarchs in Shu did not attack Pei Yuanhao, which did not mean that they fully agreed to the peace talks. What's more, where will this peace talks lead Xichuan, everyone was at a loss.
And I saw the officials of the court sitting on the other side, who were different from the old patriarchs of Xichuan. Not only did they have heavy expressions, but their expressions were even more gloomy.
I noticed that several of them seemed to have a faint anger in their eyes, but Qingchen and Pei Yuanhao seemed to have seen nothing. Qingchen turned his head and ordered Aunt Hong behind him: "You can serve the food."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Aunt Hong immediately made a gesture to the bottom. After a while, a group of neatly dressed young and beautiful maids walked up in groups, holding an exquisite golden plate in their hands, with steaming dishes on them, and placed them on each person's table one by one.
These officials, including Pei Yuanhao, got up early in the morning and walked to the present, just to get to the Yan family before dark. There was almost no rest at noon. Everyone was hungry and tired. At this moment, they were served delicious food, steaming hot and fragrant, and everyone's expression subconsciously relaxed.
Food and sex are also difficult for people to hide anything in the face of the most basic desires.
Qingchen raised his hand and said, "Please, please."
...
Everyone looked up at him, and I frowned slightly and turned to look at him.
Today is his first meeting with Pei Yuanhao, the emperor of the Central Plains. No matter what, as the host, he should have said something first, but he didn't even say a serious word and just invited everyone to have a meal.
This is a bit-
Not only did I look at him in surprise, Pei Yuanhao on the other side also turned to look at Qingchen and said with a smile: "Mr. Yan doesn't have anything to say?"
Qingchen looked up and his eyes looked straight ahead. The blood-red sunset spread the last bit of light and heat on the earth. The entire Xichuan was illuminated thousands of miles away from the earth. The color reflected in his eyes also revealed an indescribable blood red.
He said: "No."
“…”
"This time your Majesty entered Xichuan, he was in peace talks with the Yan family. When the business matters that should be discussed will naturally be discussed."
“…”
"Other, I have nothing to tell you."
“…”
As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the lobby suddenly became tense again.
If his attitude and these words were usually a serious crime, it would not be an exaggeration to behead him. Now, I saw that several officials had already shown their anger.
One of the young generals immediately stood up and pointed at Qingchen and said angrily: "You are so brave, dare to be ignorant of the emperor?!"
Yan Qingchen didn't even raise his eyelids.
The young master Anyang who was sitting on the other side also stood up and said coldly to the young general: "There is no lord in Shu, the Yan family is supreme, there is no lord here, please be careful when speaking!"
I know that Pei Yuanhao entered Shu and came to the Yan family this time, and it was impossible for him to pass it quietly. The two previous assassins were a sign. Or maybe everyone realized this, and everyone was waiting for something with all their strength and tense. This situation was almost about to break out, so a little bit of Mars could ignite the entire atmosphere.
Sure enough, when he heard the words of the Young Master Anyang, "There is no lord in Shu, and the Yan family is supreme", all the officials sitting on this side changed their faces. One or two of them could hardly hold back their hands, but they were suppressed by their colleagues around them and held them down.
Because they all found that Pei Yuanhao, who was sitting in front, was not angry at all.
From beginning to end, he was not angry, but instead smiled: "Young Master Yan is indeed a quick talk."
“…”
"According to Mr. Yan's statement, the official matters that should be discussed will be discussed later. Then what about the private affairs between me and the Yan family?"
As soon as I heard the word "private affairs", I couldn't help but frown.
Qingchen slowly turned his head to look at him and said, "Your Majesty and the Yan family are selfless."
