But he is just a little Yaksha, and his status is far less noble than the two emperors and the Seven Gods!
Even though Zhongli is already his former boss, to Mandrill, Zhongli is the benefactor and senior who gave him his name and new life.
According to Liyue's etiquette, how could he let the emperor toast him? !
"That's fine, I will toast you all on behalf of the hall master here."
Zhongli picked up the wine bottle without any psychological burden at all, while Hutao, after seeing Mandrill's expression suddenly changed, slightly raised the corners of her mouth, confirming her inner thoughts.
Picking up the flask, Zhongli glanced at Zhong Rui and Wendy and found that they both had playful smiles on their faces, probably thinking of how to make things difficult for him.
Well, the two of them will toast later...
So Zhongli took the wine bottle and took the lead to come to the restless Mandrill.
"I have admired the name of Immortal Jinpeng for a long time. It is an honor for me to have the honor to toast the Great Sage of Conquering Demons who protects the peace in all directions of Liyue. My boy Zhongli, I would like to propose a toast to Immortal Mandrill."
"puff!"
"Master Mandrill?! Why are you coughing up blood! Is it a recurrence of an old injury? Doctor! Zhongli, go to Bu Bu Lu and ask for Doctor Bai Shu!"
Chapter 193 Hutao: I invited three of the Seven Gods to a meal! This is connections!
"Master Mandrill, you must pay more attention to your health when you are slaying demons!"
Hutao expressed concern to Mandrill who was lying on the ground, his face pale and without a trace of blood.
"Ahem...I'm sorry to disappoint you all."
Mandrill's expression was still the same iceberg face that had remained unchanged for thousands of years, but blood was spilling from the corners of his mouth.
In order to prevent Emperor Yan from toasting him, Mandrill secretly shocked himself with a palm just now.
Although I had to lie in bed to recuperate for a month and a half, it was worth it!
"Mandrill, as your new boss and new superior, seeing you working so hard for all sentient beings in Liyue really moved me to tears! At the same time, I felt even more guilty for not paying attention to your physical condition... You Just three days of paid leave!”
At this time, Zhong Rui also came to Mandrill's side and expressed concern for him. With red eyes, he gently patted Mandrill on the shoulder and quietly treated his injuries.
"Only three days? They say that the capitalists in Liyue Port are the most heartless devils in Teyvat, but Emperor Tianrui, your values are even more twisted than those capitalists..."
After hearing this, Wendy looked at Zhong Rui in surprise.
Although Mandrill's injury was not serious, the incident of only giving him three days to recuperate was too sinister, right? !
Hiss...could it be that Tevalin also received similar treatment? !
No, he must secretly see Tevarin later!
Hu Tao shook her head when she saw Zhong Rui's face as a black-hearted boss, and considered whether to build a coffin for the Great Sage of Conquering Demons in advance, just as a small thought from her, the master of the Hall of the Past.
Moreover, Immortal Mandrill has shielded Liyue from wind and rain for so many years, so it’s natural for him to have a free coffin!
She has even thought about the process. When the time comes, she will bury Mandrill Fengguang, ask Zhongli and Zhong Rui to help carry the coffin, and ask the True Lord of Gechenlang City, whom she has recently made friends with, to play the suona...
"Don't look at me like this. I have already healed Mandrill's hidden injuries. He is now so healthy that even if he drinks another jar of wine, he will be fine!"
Zhong Rui saw that Wendy and Hu Tao had misunderstood him, so he picked up Mandrill, who was lying on the ground pretending to be dead, and pushed him back onto the chair to prevent him from escaping with the wind wheel.
Then he glanced at Zhongli, who was holding a wine bottle, and reminded him.
"Zhongli, continue to serve a drink to Mandrill Shangxian!"
"Your Majesty the Emperor, I... am still feeling a little unwell, so I'll just toast."
Seeing that he was still unable to escape the fate of being toasted, Mandrill tried to make a final struggle.
But this time, before Zhong Rui could speak, Zhong Li took the lead and spoke.
"Since Immortal Mandrill is unwell and unable to drink, I will offer him a cup of tea instead of wine."
"..."
Mandrill blinked and looked at Zhongli, who was determined to serve him tea, with a look of despair on his face.
Alas, how should he apologize to Lord Zhongli when he turns around...
In the end, Zhongli finished serving tea to Mandrill, and then he set his sights on the remaining two most troublesome people.
"I don't like alcohol, so let's use tea instead!"
Seeing Zhongli's eyes looking towards him, Zhong Rui raised a slight smile on his lips.
"It is an honor for me, Zhongli, to serve tea to the now famous Emperor Tianrui. I believe that under your wise rule, Liyue will reach a higher level in the future..."
Hu Tao watched this scene from the side, covering his smiling face with his hands.
Trying hard not to laugh and ruin the show.
After seeing Mandrill resisting Zhongli's toast, she had figured out Zhongli's identity.
But Hu Tao doesn't intend to point him out. After all, pretending not to know anything now will make the days in the future more interesting!
And she is probably the only one in history who can command the Rock King like this, right? !
Thinking of this, Hu Tao couldn't help but put her hands on her hips and puff up her chest.
After all, the King of Rocks is her subordinate’s business, who wouldn’t be proud of it?
"Hey, it's finally my turn! If I say it, there's no need to replace the wine with tea, just go to the bar!"
Wendy smiled and raised the empty glass and handed it to Zhongli, signaling him to pour the wine quickly.
When the Seven Gods gathered before, he had never asked Zhongli to pour him wine, but he never expected that he would be lucky enough to experience it today!
I wonder if the wine poured by King Yan himself will taste better~
After a long time, under Hu Tao's regretful eyes, the banquet finally came to an end.
Wendy, who was already drunk, and Mandrill, who had numb eyes, were escorted to the inn to rest by Zhongli, the younger brother of the Palace of Death.
"Oh, although it cost a lot of money, this meal is really worth it!"
Hu Tao waved goodbye to Zhongli and others, thinking of the many secrets she learned today, she couldn't help but laugh.
"Indeed, so many businessmen in Liyue Port don't have this face. Only Hall Master Hu's connections can do this."
Zhong Rui recalled the interesting things at the banquet and couldn't help laughing again.
Wendy was relatively restrained when she started drinking, but later she started talking drunkenly.
At the end of the banquet, Zhongli looked at him as if he were looking at a dead person.
The direction Zhongli was leaving this time was the road from Liyue Port to the wild. He was afraid that Mondstadt's Wind God would be buried alive by his predecessor Rock God later.
As for Mandrill... he and Wendy were madly persecuted along the way, and he was forced to accept tea offered by Zhongli many times.
The child is now numb and has not recovered yet.
"Of course! Don't you see what kind of person this hall leader is?"
Hu Tao puffed up her chest with great pride as she listened to Zhong Rui's praise. If she told what happened today, even those Seven Stars would be envious of her connections!
The current emperor is her good friend, the previous emperor is her younger brother, and the Great Sage of Conquering Demons is her acquaintance!
Relying on these connections, she can walk sideways in Liyue Port!
"But then again, who is that young man?"
"Oh? Isn't he the King of Rocks?"
Zhong Rui was still pretending to be stupid. In fact, after the banquet, Zhong Li's identity would definitely be hidden.
This was also the reason why Zhongli looked at Wendy with murderous intent in his eyes.
"Oh, I've already guessed who the emperor is. There's no need to pretend anymore. Don't worry! I'm very strict with my words and won't tell you! Tell me the identity of that person quickly!"
Hu Tao took Zhong Rui's wrist and said coquettishly. After seeing that Wendy's identity was at least equal to that of the Rock King, she became more and more curious about that person's identity!
If he hadn't learned his identity from Zhong Rui tonight, Hu Tao probably wouldn't be able to sleep well these days!
"Okay, his name is Wendy, and his main job is a bard. As for his side job..."
Zhong Rui deliberately let it slip when he said this, and then whispered into Hu Tao's ear.
"Barbatos, the wind god of Mondstadt, once restored Mandrill's mind with the sound of his flute. He is considered Mandrill's savior and is also Zhongli's old friend~"
"Oh! No wonder..."
After learning Wendy's identity from Zhong Rui, Hu Tao showed an expression of realization.
During the second half of the banquet, she did not think of Wendy going to Liyue Immortal, because he was obviously not used to Liyue's clothes and did not know many of Liyue's etiquette.
It turns out to be the God of Wind in Mondstadt!
So, she invited three gods and an immortal for this meal?
Tsk tsk, if other people find out, I'm afraid they will envy her to death!
Chapter 194 Yae Shenzi’s request for help
"Thank you sister Ganyu."
Yae Shenzi took the tea from Gan Yu with a warm and friendly smile on his face.
"You are welcome."
Gan Yu just smiled slightly, nodded to Zhong Rui, who was sitting opposite Yae Shenzi, and then walked out of the room without disturbing the two of them.
As soon as Gan Yu went out, Zhong Rui grabbed his hand, and Shenzi had been rubbing his calves under the table since just now.
"Hey, what do you mean?"
"Haha, don't you find this exciting?"
Yae Shenzi smiled charmingly. After her confession a few days ago, she and Zhong Rui became underground lovers.
Of course, this was her initiative. Firstly, she didn’t want Lei Qian to be jealous after discovering this relationship, and secondly, she wanted to pursue excitement~
After Zhong Rui's confession, Yae Shenzi already knew how many lovers he had. In order to make herself look more special, she took the initiative to let herself be his lover!
Although they are lovers, they are actually no different from Zhong Rui's lovers.
It's just that the title of lover can provoke the hearts of the opposite sex...
He is indeed a vixen...
Zhong Rui thought in his heart, then let go of Yae Shenzi's leg and asked her to take it back.
Speaking of which, Keqing said that the new home is almost ready, and by then he will be able to take Yae Sakura, who has destroyed the world, to live there.
I don’t know what Yae Kamiko will think when he sees Yae Sakura who looks similar to himself in the future.
The biggest difference in appearance between these two vixens is probably their ears.
Miko's ears are fluffy, while Sakura's ears are slender. They don't look like foxes, but more like...
"When you are alone with me, you actually think about other women's affairs? What a man he is. What a man he is."
"Huh? Is my expression so obvious?"
Hearing Yae Shenzi's complaint, Zhong Rui also came to his senses and temporarily put those distracting thoughts behind him.
Yae Shenzi came to see him today. According to her, she had real things to do and was not here to have a tryst with him.
"That's all, I'm already an old woman in the past to you anyway..."
Yae Shenzi pretended to be sad and pitiful. After taking a sneak look at Zhong Rui, he found that he didn't take the bait at all, so he simply stopped pretending.
"Time is precious, let's get to the point. I came to Liyue this time to ask you to save Dao Wife!"
"?"
Seeing the puzzled expression on Zhong Rui's face, Yae Shenzi was about to explain the ins and outs of the matter to him.
The next second, she blushed at Zhong Rui's words.
"So you shouldered the heavy responsibility of saving Dao's wife, and you just went to Liyue Port to fall in love with me, and you fished for more than a month?"
"...That, that's just to get close to you, and the process is not important!"
Yae Shenzi suddenly blushed, as if he had been stepped on a painful spot, and forcefully defended himself.
What about "The priest of the shrine is also a shrine maiden!" "Serving the gods does not count as falling in love! It is my job!" "I used honey traps all for rice wives!" "How can I call it a fish out of the affairs of Zhong Rui?! "
