This man's voice was thunderously loud.
So loud that nearly everyone turned to look.
Bai Tingzhi stared straight ahead, standing there stiffly as he waited for a reply.
"Where did this guy come from? How does he know so little about the rules?"
"From the way he's dressed, he looks like some country bumpkin too..."
"After entering, he should have first toasted the Heir Apparent and the others. If he wanted to befriend Lord Chen, he should have done it quietly in private. Shouting it out so loudly is practically..."
Declaring allegiance!
But the problem was that Chen Sanshi was still a rising newcomer. His cultivation was not particularly high, and he had no deep background to speak of. He simply had no qualifications to open his own dock.
"Hold on."
Wen Qiushi narrowed his eyes and demanded, "The Heir Apparent is standing right in front of you, yet you aren't going to toast him first?!"
"The Heir Apparent?"
Bai Tingzhi said bluntly, "I don't know the Heir Apparent. I only know General Chen!"
Chen Sanshi had now been granted the official Fifth Rank title of General of Martial Virtue. He truly was a genuine general.
"Where did this fool come from?!"
Yin Hanwen said angrily, "Your Lord Chen still has to toast the Heir Apparent first. Do you understand the rules or not?!"
"Brother Bai, hurry and toast the Heir Apparent."
The sudden situation had nearly caught Chen Sanshi off guard. "Don't just stand there."
He could tell at a glance that this young man was a blockhead who knew absolutely nothing about etiquette.
With that, he had offended the already proud and arrogant Heir Apparent.
"You're the Heir Apparent? General Chen told me to toast you!"
Bai Tingzhi made another astonishing remark. "Bottoms up!"
*Why is this guy
