Chapter 305: Crossroads
“Heh heh. My great meritorious advisor has arrived. Please, quickly take a seat.”
When Emperor Zhao Xu saw Zhang Fei, he actually rose to greet him, and the table had already been prepared with fine wine and delicious food, all dishes that Zhang Fei loved to eat.
If Wang Anshi had witnessed this scene, he probably would have felt extremely envious!
“This humble commoner pays respects to Your Majesty.”
Zhang Fei hurried forward and performed a bow.
Zhao Xu feigned displeasure and said, “How many times have I told you? When there are no outsiders present, you need not be so formal. Moreover, you have returned in triumph today.”
“I dare not! I dare not!”
Zhang Fei replied humbly, “Speaking of it, I am truly ashamed. This entire incident only arose from my desire for revenge. That Your Majesty allowed me to act recklessly without blame, I am already moved to tears of gratitude. How could I dare claim credit?”
Zhao Xu laughed happily and said, “Your desire for revenge truly came at a wonderful time! It also helped me vent my frustration. Sit! Sit! Between you and me, there is no need for restraint.”
