Acting

 After the two finished chatting, they left separately.

Zhengjun Duncan found a hotel nearby to check in and wait for good news.

Liu Qiang was not vague in his work. After changing his clothes, he ran to West Lucozia Palace to hand in the visiting card in person.

However, when he arrived at the destination, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.

At this moment, many people had gathered at the gate of West Lucozia Palace.

Among them were several big figures he was familiar with, such as the general soldier of the city guard, General Longwei, and the Grand Secretary of Tianzhang Pavilion.

These three were all first-rank officials. In West Lucozia, it was not an exaggeration to describe them as being able to call the wind and rain.

Especially General Longwei, who was the boss of his boss.

When he saw them at ordinary times, he had to march in step, for fear of leaving a bad impression.

In addition to the three powerful big figures, there were also some second-rank officials, all standing in a row at the door.

It is no exaggeration to say that any one of them would have more power and background than him.

"Oh my god, is today an important day? How could so many big shots show up at the same time?"

Liu Qiang was secretly shocked and became nervous.

The self-confidence that had swelled before was now all transformed into trepidation.

In the eyes of many people, he, a third-rank official, was indeed a powerful person.

But compared to these real big shots, he was just a small character who led horses in front of the door. He usually just made himself familiar and supported them, and knew that there was such a person.

As for the right to speak, it can be completely ignored.

At this moment, the red painted door of the West Lucozia Palace was closed, and everyone stood at the door and waited.

Several leading first-rank officials would peek inside through the crack of the door from time to time.

The guards did not stop them. As long as they did not force their way in, they would all pretend not to see it.

"What's wrong with the prince today? We have been standing outside for a long time, and he really doesn't plan to invite us in to sit down?"

General Longwei paced back and forth, looking very anxious.

"That's right! I am so old, and I am dizzy and dazed under the sun. How can I bear it?" Tianzhang Pavilion University Scholar also complained.

"Okay, the two of you, the prince said that there are important matters at home today and he will not see guests. You should go back." The general soldier of the city guard advised.

"Humph! Let us go back, why don't you leave?" General Longwei replied unhappily.

"That's right! We are all thousand-year-old foxes, what are you playing with us? I don't even want to expose you!" Tianzhang Pavilion Grand Secretary rolled his eyes.

He came here on behalf of the eldest prince to find out the truth.

And the city guard general knew with his toes that he had received benefits from the third prince.

As for the rough general Longwei, he owed a favor to the second prince.

The three of them had the same goal, but different positions.

"Don't be so angry, both of you. To put it bluntly, the prince has not seen us for so long, he must have guessed our intention and does not intend to wade into this muddy water. There is no point for us to waste time here, why don't we find a place to eat something and drink a few glasses of wine?" The city guard general smiled like a signature.

"Eat shit! I'm not in the mood now. If you want to eat, go by yourself!" General Longwei was very irritable.

"I won't go either. I'm taking care of my health now. I only drink tea, not wine." The Grand Secretary of Tianzhang Pavilion also refused.

"Since you want to wait, then continue to wait. I won't accompany you."

The city guard general said with a fake smile, and then pretended to leave.

As a result, he almost bumped into Liu Qiang who was coming towards him.

"General, sorry, sorry, I didn't bump into you?"

There were so many big shots at the scene, and Liu Qiang was scared, so he was distracted for a while and met the city guard general. He almost made a mistake and was scared to the point of being incoherent.

He is not like other generals, who have a background and a strong backing.

He can get to where he is today step by step, and he has worked hard. If he accidentally offends some big shot, he might be beaten back to his original form at any time.

The city guards frowned at first, but soon recovered and smiled, saying, "It's okay. You look so panicked. Have you encountered any difficulties? Tell me about it."

A third-rank official is not a small official. If he is promoted to a higher level in the future, he will be qualified to be his right-hand man.

Giving a smile and doing a favor is harmless.

"I have an important matter to ask to see the prince. I didn't expect that all the adults are here. I am really scared." Liu Qiang smiled.

"Oh? You want to see the prince too? What a coincidence. We all want to see the prince." The city guards smiled.

"Who are you? How dare you join in the fun? Get out of here as far as you can!" General Longwei looked unhappy.

These words scared Liu Qiang so much that he shuddered all over and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes, I came here suddenly. I didn't know that all the adults had important matters to discuss. I will leave now, I will leave now!"

After a deep salute, Liu Qiang was ready to run away, but the city guard general held him back: "Don't be nervous, since you are here, make the best of it."

As he said that, he turned his head to look at General Long Wei and smiled: "General, this guy is your subordinate after all, and he didn't make any mistakes. Why are you so fierce? Why don't you listen to him? What if there is really a major military event, and you drive him away, delaying the opportunity, and the prince holds him accountable, what should you do?"

"Hmph! If you have something to say, just say it, and if you fart, just fart!" General Long Wei frowned.

"Yes... it's like this, Zhengjun Duncan, the third son of the Duncan family, is visiting West Lucozia. Today, I was specially asked to deliver a visiting card, hoping to meet the prince." Liu Qiang hesitated and briefly explained the situation.

After listening, the people around him laughed.

"What is the third son of the Duncan family, I've never heard of it, tell him to go away from where he came from!" General Long Wei was not polite.

If Xueliang Duncan was here, he would still give him some face.

He didn't take a dandy who grew up with the blessing of his father seriously.

"Hey, hey, hey, what do you think of the West Lucozia Palace? Can anyone come in? How ridiculous!" The Grand Secretary sneered.

The three first-rank officials were still waiting outside the door, and a little Karami who came out of nowhere was actually asking to see the prince like them. It was really a mess!

"Get out! Don't embarrass yourself here! It's annoying to watch!" General Longwei issued an order to expel him again.

"Yes, yes, I'll take my leave now!"

Liu Qiang was sweating profusely, and he didn't even dare to wipe it off. After bowing deeply, he was about to run away again.

"Squeak!"

At this time, the vermilion door of the palace suddenly opened slowly. - Ton
