Chapter 1286 - 1092, The Little Prince Xiao’s Tender Around the Finger (4)
Haqi City.
Residence of Commander Ren Feng.
It was the birthday of the elderly mother at home, and Ren Feng hosted a grand flowing feast. The Ren Residence was filled with guests, drums and gongs resounded everywhere.
Compared to the clamor elsewhere, the courtyard in the front yard where the opera was being performed was somewhat quiet.
Under the stage, the Provincial Governor, Inspector, and Commander, the three highest officials of Liaodong, were sitting with a distinguished young man, accompanying him with smiles.
Xiao Moxi lightly tapped the table with his fingers, smiling as he watched the stage and casually chatted with the three: "I must have really good fortune to meet the three of you at once, saving me from running back and forth."
Ren Feng replied with a smile: "Whatever you say, Prince, if you summoned us, we would naturally visit at once. How could we trouble you to travel yourself?"
Xiao Moxi’s smile didn’t change: "You three are the highest officials of the Governor’s Office, busy with daily affairs. I dare not delay your duties."
As these words were spoken, the three’s expressions changed simultaneously.
Today was the fifth day of the feast at the Ren Residence. If they were truly busy with official duties, they wouldn’t appear here at this time.
Wasn’t this Little Prince Xiao hinting at them again?
Just then, the opera on stage concluded, and Xiao Moxi said directly: "For the next performance, let’s have ’Loyal to the Country’. Liaodong is at the frontier, and you three guarding the gates of Daxia is truly meritorious work."
