Chapter 141: Strange Costumes, Sudden Blades
How did Li Ao listen to it, how did he feel that the taste of these words was not particularly right, it sounded like he was praising himself, but there was a bit of derogatory meaning in it.
When he tried to find out the lady's expression again, he only left himself a wonderful shadow.
I have to say that from the moment they came to this country, they felt that this was an extremely beautiful place, with its own history and stories, and such an ancient kingdom did not exist in the time and space where he was.
The more he stayed here, the more he felt that this place was beautiful, peaceful, peaceful, elegant, full of etiquette, whether it was culture or people, he liked it very much.
Of course, especially women, the women in his world are all beauties with high noses, and they are all very sharp-looking, and the women here are very gentle and lovely, and there is a feeling of being a bird.
When Li Ao walked to the emperor's side, the beautiful lady was already standing aside with her husband, protecting the emperor's safety.
It was hard to imagine that such a gentle and gentle woman was an important person in the Fengbo Pavilion, but this also aroused Li Ao's curiosity about this woman.
"Li Ao, your ship is indeed good, it would be better if it could be used in battle. As he spoke, Ge Su looked at Li Xiangqing next to him and said,
"I remember that there was a time when the young people in the south made trouble and surrounded Dongou Kingdom, and it was because of our lack of combat power on the water that it took a lot of effort. If people could hide in such an iron-walled ship and shoot outside, it would have reduced a large number of casualties. ”
Li Xiangqing complimented, "What Your Majesty said is extremely true, I wonder if the envoy can find a way to combine such a ship with weapons and transform it into a warship?"
"This ......" Before Li Ao's words could be spoken, the emperor was already smiling and waving his hand,
"Hey, don't talk about politics today, don't talk about politics, what's over there?"
Following the emperor's gaze, Li Ao saw the control room on the other side and explained to the emperor,
"This is the control center of the whole ship, and people can control it inside, so it avoids many difficulties in taking the helm in the wind and rain. ”
"That's good, I'll take a look. ”
Li Ao led the way in front, and soon the group arrived at the control room, and the people inside were all wearing blue clothes, which were very similar to the kind of clothes Li Ao wore when he first came, shorts and shorts, but they looked much neater.
It's just that Tao Ziyuan always felt that the blue hat didn't seem to be able to cover the long hair of the Li Qing man, and the elegant black hair was a bit of an eyesore at the moment.
"What's the matter with these people's clothes?" the emperor frowned, Tao Ziyuan said badly, these days she has also more or less understood some of the emperor's temper, the boat is a new thing, but it is just a thing, now Li Ao has changed the clothes worn by these people. And also in front of the emperor.
Sure enough, the emperor glanced at Li Ao, his expression became cold, and his interest was swept away.
"Forget it, I'm tired, let's go and rest first, and when I get to the place, let's say goodbye. ”
Li Xiangqing led the emperor to the cabin, Chen Yan followed, Tao Ziyuan stopped Li Ao who was about to follow, the latter looked innocent and puzzled,
"Dare to ask Madame, what's the matter?"
Tao Ziyuan smiled, "It's nothing, it's just the dust of this way, I have a lot of opportunities to deal with Your Majesty, and now I'm a little tired, just go and rest." The envoys came with me to taste the skill of my imperial court. ”
"Imperial Chef?" Li Ao wondered, when did this come up to the Imperial Chef, he didn't even know at all.
Came to the restaurant on the second floor, Li Ao sat on a chair, the golden and brilliant restaurant everywhere showed the prosperity of this dynasty, he deliberately used the gold, jade and silver that the magnates here liked to build this ship, the emperor reacted very well at first, is it because of those people's clothes?
The imperial kitchen of the palace had already prepared lunch, and Tao Ziyuan tried them one by one with silver needles before asking Li Ao to move his chopsticks.
"Mrs. Chen, why is your majesty upset when he sees those people wearing new clothes?" Li Ao asked suspiciously.
Tao Ziyuan looked at the maid next to him, and the latter picked up the chopsticks on the side and put them on the plate in Li Ao's hand.
"Master Li, try it, this is the vinegar fish of the West Lake, the fish transported from Hangzhou, it is still fresh, while the fish is still fresh, with the skill of the chef's old knife, all the waste is cut with a knife, until it comes out of the pot, this fish is complete. ”
Li Ao picked up the fish meat on the plate and put it in his mouth, it does have a different taste, and the aftertaste is endless, but now he cares more about Tao Zikite's attitude, not long ago this lady was not such an attitude, what is going on?
Moreover, there seems to be a hidden mystery in these words, with a faint killing intent.
"Mrs. Chen seems to have misunderstood me. Li Ao's straightforwardness was expected by Tao Ziyuan, because he didn't know how to beat around the bush here, but he only had some skill in speaking.
"Master Li thinks a lot, the craftsmanship of the imperial kitchen is not something that can be tasted at any time, there is a saying in my country, it is called food is silent, sleep is silent, adults please use it. ”
Tao Ziyuan smiled lightly, but the faint smile on the corner of his lips made Li Ao feel a little cold behind him, as if there was an invisible knife around his neck, and his life would be in danger at any time.
He still doesn't know where this knife came from or who holds it.
These people in the palace, people in the court, all have a few sets of hearts, and it is several times more difficult to make waves under their hands, and once they are regarded as enemies, the terrible thing is not the means, but that you don't know that he regards you as an enemy.
Someone who could smile at you one moment is likely to have a knife on your neck the next, and they call it a scheme.
But in Li Ao's eyes, this is more like wearing an invisible mask.
"Where did Master Li come from?" Tao Ziyuan asked suddenly, Li Ao's hand stiffened suddenly, trying to keep himself as it was, but it was inevitable that he would miss his tracks, so he simply put down the tea cup at hand,
"I was able to visit your country by boat from the other side of the ocean for many days, what does Mrs. Chen mean by that?
Tao Ziyuan looked at him with a smile and said word by word, "I don't doubt your intentions, I doubt your identity, you are from another time and space, who helped you open the door to time and space? What is the purpose of your coming here? Wen Jiu, this name, the envoy should be familiar with it!"
With Tao Ziyuan's questioning, many guards with sharp blades appeared in the originally empty restaurant from all directions, and these people were uniformly dressed in black embroidered with double crane suits, and their eyes were blazing, like a second sharp blade falling on their bodies.
