"Hmm? Xiao Xuan, why are you back? "
Seeing that Li Zexuan had returned, Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but ask in surprise.
After Li Zexuan's "surprise attack", the few officials who came to Yan Mansion were no longer in the mood to continue admiring the electric car. The reason why they didn't leave was because they were waiting for Li Zexuan to come back. This was because they all heard the displeasure in Li Zexuan's tone just now!
After all, for these people to be able to get to their current positions, they were all shrewd people!
Everyone knew that Li Zexuan would return to Yan Mansion after going to the palace, but they didn't expect him to come back so quickly. This amount of time was not enough for a round trip from Yan Mansion to the palace!
Although Li Zexuan was a little depressed in his heart, he didn't show it on his face. Instead, he replied faintly, "His Majesty talked about some official business with me on the way back. After that, I came back!"
"Official business?"
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but be suspicious in their hearts. However, Li Zexuan obviously didn't want to talk about it in detail, so they didn't ask anymore.
Yan Shaoning's eyes flashed, and he asked in a deep voice, "Xiao Xuan, did His Majesty blame you for giving me something as valuable as an electric car? If that's the case, then you should drive the car back later! "
Among the people in the room, Yan Shaoning was the one who actually spent the most time with Li Zexuan. He could catch the slightest expression on Li Zexuan's face and guess what Li Zexuan was thinking. Just now, Yan Shaoning could clearly see that Li Zexuan had a very forced smile on his face when he replied to Cheng Yaojin. That was why he said that just now!
Hearing this, Li Zexuan quickly waved his hand and said, "Shaoning, what are you talking about! What His Majesty said to me just now was some official business. What does it have to do with the electric car in front of the door? Don't think too much! Oh! That's right! Hasn't the kitchen in your mansion prepared the food yet? Hurry up and let them serve the food! Don't let everyone starve because of me! "
"Yes, yes, yes! Old Yan, hurry up and let them serve the food! This old man's stomach is growling from hunger! At noon, I must have a good drink with Old Fang and Shiwen! It's not easy for us old fellows to gather at the same table! "
(Xiao Yu, courtesy name Shi Wen)
Cheng Yaojin's eyes flashed. He laughed and said loudly.
Yan Lide immediately reacted and hurriedly shouted, "Butler! Quick, tell the kitchen to serve the dishes! "
A moment later, the group of people sat together and began to eat heartily.
For Li Zexuan, although he had just been reprimanded by Li Er and promised to do his utmost to help the Imperial Court prepare for the invasion of the Turks, he still had to eat his fill, right? There's nothing wrong with that!
During the banquet, the thick-skinned Cheng Yaojin frequently toasted Fang Xuanling, Xiao Yu, Yan Lide, and Yan Liben. In his words, they, as military generals, had too few opportunities to drink with civil officials!
However, in Li Zexuan's view, Old Cheng's actions were completely to pick on the "soft persimmons". If Old Cheng "rashly attacked" the "tough ones" like Yuchi Jingde and Niu Jinda, it was very likely that he would encounter a "two-sided attack". However, there was no such risk when it came to Fang Xuanling, who was "trash" at the table. Cheng Yaojin could fight the four of them alone!
Therefore, after the banquet, Fang Xuanling, Xiao Yu, Yan Lide, and Yan Liben were all drunk, while Cheng Yaojin and the others wiped their mouths and immediately left!
