"I've heard of the famous Chen Qianhu for a long time, let me toast to you!"
"Cheers!"
"Wonderful! You are truly a man of large capacity!"
The courtyard was bustling with noise and excitement.
Upon learning Chen Mo's identity, no one could close their jaws. Who would have thought that this young man, with the scholarly air, is actually the famous Mr. Chen from the Southern Border! And so young, yet already promoted to the Heavenly Qilin Guard Thousand Households!
Such a figure, to have come to Fengmu County?
It's simply like a dream come true!
After all, his reputation was so illustrious that initially, no one dared to approach him rashly. They only dared to try their luck with a toast after witnessing him casually drink with County Magistrate Ji.
To their surprise, Mr. Chen turned out to have a free-spirited and bold character, without any pretense, accepting nearly every toast.
Witnessing this, more and more people came forward to offer a drink, almost forming a long line beside the banquet table. The clinking of glasses and sound of toasts gradually pushed the atmosphere to a climax.
"Good wine!"
Chen Mo's cheeks flushed a rosy hue, as if he were truly drunk.
In contrast, Li Yuan sat upright with a stoic expression, untouched by the wine and food on the table.
"This must be Households Commander Li? Allow me to toast you as well," Ji Weifeng, a bit tipsy, staggered while holding a wine cup and walked towards Li Yuan.
Clap—
Suddenly, a large hand pressed down onto his wrist.
Ji Weifeng looked up to see Chen Mo staring at him with a smile, saying, "She never touches a drop of alcohol and has other duties later, so drinking may lead to mistakes."
"Un-Understood." Ji Weifeng retracted his neck, suddenly feeling a chill down his spine, but quickly recovered as if it was just an illusion.
"Lord Ji, let's continue drinking!"
"Alright, another round!"
Servants carrying trays of food wove through the seats, filling the table with steaming dishes, and casks of wine were brought forth one after another.
It's said that to host this banquet, Grandmaster Li reserved all the restaurants in the city, spending thousands of taels on various ingredients, yet not taking a single contribution. After several days, the number of citizens who have come to partake in the feast is countless.
Saying it's for charity wouldn't be an exaggeration.
Feng Liu held half a chicken leg in one hand, with one foot propped on a bench, his mouth shining with grease, saying, "Mr. Chen was personally escorted into the city by me. We chatted along the way, and he warmly called me Brother Liuzi…"
Everyone at the same table looked at him with envy.
In Tiannan State, you may not recognize the Sky Scale Guard, but you cannot not know Chen Mo.
He eliminated the Demon Sect in Linyang County, slew the Blood Demon in the Ten-Thousand-Great-Mountains, saving countless citizens from water and fire, all of which are solid achievements! To even speak a word with such a figure would have one smiling till they awoke from their sleep!
"Brother Liu, tell us more, what did Mr. Chen talk about with you?"
"Ha, we talked about a lot…" Feng Liu was encircled by the crowd, full of satisfaction, straightening up his stance.
