Chapter 861: The Way of the Man

Li Gui gratefully saluted these soldiers, and his expression was exactly the same as that of a star chaser who was about to see his idol in the future.

Under the leadership of the soldiers, Li Gui was able to easily enter the Gong'an Port and head towards Liu Bei's mansion.

Li Gui and the others came to Liu Bei's mansion with a large number of fish and shrimp, and of course they were taken to the back door by the soldiers. The soldiers in charge of guarding the mansion stopped them at a glance. The soldiers who brought Li Gui and them over told the reason.

Originally, Li Gui couldn't get in, but at this time, a person appeared. This person is the subordinate sent by Jian Yong to purchase ingredients, and because Liu Yu is going to feast guests, he needs a lot of meat. However, the Public Security Port does not allow all the idle people to come in today, so there are not many things to choose from on the market. Although some have been purchased before, the ingredients are simply not enough. Jian Yong, who was in charge of all the matters, immediately asked his subordinates to find a way to solve it. This subordinate is about to turn around the public security port, and there are few things that can be bought. When I returned, I saw a large number of people carrying a basket of fish and shrimp, and after careful questioning, I learned that this was the people who automatically gave Liu Bei gifts.

If you want to fall asleep, someone will send a pillow. When the ingredients were insufficient, this subordinate asked Li Gui and them to send these fish and shrimp directly without saying a word. The soldier guarding the gate felt that it was inappropriate and wanted to stop and check it, but was angrily reprimanded by this subordinate.

"Your eyes are blind. I don't know if these people are grateful for the kindness of the emperor and came to congratulate each other. Where is someone who rejects the gift-giver, if the imperial uncle blames it, how many heads do you have? "The subordinate now only thinks about his own task, and ignores the danger of it.

Not to mention, the appearance of this subordinate fox and fake tiger made the soldiers guarding the door dare not make any moves. But it was too dangerous for so many people to enter it. The soldiers insisted that only about twenty people could enter, and the others waited outside the door.

Li Gui knew that it would definitely be inappropriate for so many of them to enter, so he immediately agreed. At the same time, Li Gui quietly gave the remaining spies a look, signaling that once they received the news inside, they would immediately kill in, and the inside and outside should be together.

So Li Gui and the others entered Liu Bei's mansion very smoothly.

Li Gui smiled secretly in his heart: "This is really God helping me." ”

Li Gui and the others turned left and right, and came to the back kitchen, which was already very busy, and they were all busy preparing for the banquet to be held later. And Li Gui and the others came over with so many fish and shrimp, which attracted everyone's attention at once. Li Gui smiled and put the fish and shrimp in front of them, and then he and the others found a place to sit down.

Then these fish and shrimp were taken away by Liu Bei's subordinates, who were in charge of preparing food, and they began to get busy one by one.

A middle-aged man who seemed to be in charge of affairs came here, obviously very dissatisfied with the current progress, and urged: "How did you do it." Uncle Huang's banquet is about to start, why haven't you prepared all the food yet. This is a big deal, you have to speed it up. ”

These subordinates want to be fast, but they have so many people, and they can't go fast if they want to be fast.

The person in charge suddenly discovered Li Gui's existence, and the twenty people were suddenly sitting on the side, and this formation made people not want to be surprised.

"What are so many of you doing here? Why haven't I seen you? How did you get in? Come on, blast them out! The steward said very dissatisfied.

And the subordinates who brought Li Gui and them in hurriedly explained: "Master, these people are here to give gifts to the imperial uncle. They sent enough fish and shrimp, and the quality was first-class. We can't ruin the reputation of the imperial uncle, and we must not bomb them out. ”

The person in charge now knows why Li Gui and them are here, so he said: "Now is a good day for Uncle Huang, and it is not a way for so many people to be here." If something happens, it's a problem. Give them a little in return, and tell them all to go out. ”

Li Gui secretly screamed that it was not good, if they were called out, the plan would change again.

Maybe today is Li Gui's lucky day, and the subordinate who brought them in came to the steward's side and said softly: "Master, we are short of manpower now." You see, this feast is about to begin. There are so many guests today, and it is difficult to fulfill the master's request at the speed of the small ones. At that time, it is inevitable that the imperial uncle will blame. So the little ones thought, it's better to let these individuals help here, seeing that they are all begging for a living on the river, this work must be neat. ”

This went to the heart of the steward, if he couldn't make all the food in time, then Liu Bei would definitely be embarrassed. Liu Bei has always wanted to save face, and he will definitely be furious if he loses his face, and the steward in charge of this matter will definitely not be able to eat and walk around.

"You're clever kid. I'll leave it to you. "The steward is very good at instructing his subordinates to do things.

This subordinate came to Li Gui and said in front of them, "Ladies and gentlemen, thank you very much for coming to give gifts today. As for the gift, I accepted it on behalf of Uncle Huang. I will definitely tell Uncle Huang when the time comes. ”

"This son is polite. The little ones are just very grateful for Uncle Huang's kindness back then, but it's a pity that the little ones have limited ability, otherwise they can do more things for Uncle Huang. Li Gui's ears were very good, and of course he heard the conversation between the steward and this subordinate, so he thought of the next plan with a roll of his eyes.

This subordinate secretly praised Li Gui for coming to the road, but he hadn't said it yet, he just sent it to the door.

"Your heart is really touching. In fact, now there is an opportunity for you to share your worries for Uncle Huang. You've all seen it. Today is the day when Uncle Huang adopted his adopted son, and those of us who are subordinates are also favored by Uncle Huang, and we all use our strength to do things for Uncle Huang. It's a pity, there is a shortage of manpower, and it looks like it's going to delay Uncle Huang's good deeds. The subordinate pretended to be sad and said.

Li Gui smiled: "Childe's words are wrong. There are more than 20 of these small people, and they are fortunate to be able to enter the emperor's mansion today and be extravagant. Now Uncle Huang is in difficulty. The little ones have a lot of strength. Some delicate work can't be done. But the rough work of serving food and delivering water can also be done well. The little ones still want to see the emperor's demeanor again. ”

"You are really loyal and courageous, so I will bother you." There is free labor to use, and a fool will refuse.

The steward saw that it was so easy to get it done, and he was very happy in his heart, with so many people joining, Liu Bei's banquet would definitely not be delayed. The most important thing is that you don't have to pay a penny. The steward felt that Li Gui and they wanted to get wages from him in the future, so don't blame the steward for turning his face when the time comes.

Li Gui didn't say a word and let his subordinates join him, and kept making eye contact with them. The spies understood something from Li Gui's eyes.

With Li Gui's help, the work efficiency of the entire kitchen has been greatly improved.

Li Gui took advantage of the fact that others were not paying attention, took out a jar of medicinal powder from his arms and secretly put it into all the wine jars.

"Liu Bei, don't you like to drugged in wine? Lao Tzu will let you clear your stomach today, so that all of you know what it is like to be drugged. Li Gui said lewdly.

"It's a pity that I didn't expect such a thing when I set off from Luoyang, if I brought those things, Liu Bei's gang would be all covered. It's a pity, it's a pity! Li Gui was very annoyed.

This time he came out in a hurry, Li Gui didn't bring the terrifying poison of the "dark department", but he still found some laxatives. In desperation, Li Gui planned to let everyone who participated in Liu Bei's banquet clear their stomachs, and the last one was weak, and Li Gui was much easier to move. It's just that Li Gui hopes that he has poison even more, but unfortunately, who told him to forget this. The other spies also had some sweat pills, laxatives and the like on hand, and under Li Gui's secret signal, they quietly mixed in the food by taking advantage of the time to help. And Liu Bei's subordinates were all busy, and they didn't notice such a point at all. Maybe even Liu Bei wouldn't have predicted that Li Gui could lurk here.

This is to treat others the way they do.

Liu Bei's side has entered the final climax.

In front of all the guests who came to attend the ceremony, Kou Feng had already bowed to Liu Bei three times and bowed nine times, completing a series of etiquette. Only Liu Bei would make this matter so serious.

Liu Yu smiled and picked up Kou Feng, and announced in public that Kou Feng became his adopted son, and his surname Liu Bei was entered into Liu Bei's genealogy. After that, Kou Feng changed his name to Liu Feng.

"Congratulations to Uncle Liu Huang for having a noble son." The guests kept congratulating Liu Bei.

But that sounds a little awkward. Liu Bei's heart was a little sad, if only he could really have a biological son.

Liu Bei took Liu Feng to introduce them to his subordinates and guests one by one. Liu Feng also followed Liu Bei's side very well-behaved, as if he was really Liu Bei's son.

Looking at Liu Feng's handsome appearance, everyone present praised that he was really a hero and a young man, and Liu Bei had a successor.

Liu Bei was also very comfortable listening to it, he estimated that he would not be able to give birth to a son. After having Liu Feng, Liu Bei's heart is also a lot more steady.

Liu Feng was excited in his heart. Not long ago, he was persecuted by the Kou family, and his family property was taken away, and he almost ended up on the streets. Liu Fengzhen, who was helpless, felt that the sky had fallen. But fate is such a trick on people, when Liu Feng was very desperate, Liu Bei appeared and wanted to accept him as a righteous son. Until now, Liu Feng felt that he was in a dream. If Liu Feng hadn't secretly pinched a few times and felt the pain, Liu Feng would have thought it was a dream. From being helpless to becoming the heir of a prince, such a life makes people wonder if they are not dreaming.

Liu Feng also knows what he wants to do now, Liu Bei is now his father, just listen to Liu Bei's words.

Liu Bei saw that Liu Feng was so well-behaved, which completely met the definition of a son in his heart.

Now that the etiquette has been completed, it is now the final step, and everyone eats and drinks together to end today's ceremony.

"Come on, serve the food!" Liu Bei waved his hand.

At this time, with the help of Li Gui and them, the back kitchen had just prepared all the food. The steward breathed a sigh of relief, and it was best to have such a result.

Li Gui and the others quietly returned to the bamboo pole they had just picked, but there were their weapons hidden here, just waiting to attack later.

The steward saw that Li Gui found a place to rest after they finished doing it, and in his eyes, he felt that these people were really good people, and they did things without saying a word, and it was really rare to find a place to rest by themselves. At least in the eyes of the steward, Li Gui and them are like this.

The so-called being a man should pay attention to a little morality, and the person in charge was really a little careless not to let people help in vain, so he arranged it and prepared a little water and food for Li Gui and them, and said that they would have fun with Uncle Liu Huang. It's a little simple, but it's a lot of thought. Li Gui: Of course, they will not refuse. Li Gui and the others also wanted to take a good rest and recover their strength as soon as possible.

The food and drinks soon came up. As soon as he saw the wine and food on the table, Liu Bei was very satisfied. In this era, people are very careful about eating and drinking. The upper one eats meat, the second eats fish, and the second eats vegetables. The common people usually live mainly on vegetables and coarse grains. Especially in troubled times, it's good to have a bite to eat. The ruling class is also known as the meat eaters, which are used throughout the ages. Of course, Liu Yu from later generations is a bit different, most of his diet is based on vegetables, because Liu Yu knows that eating too much meat will cause all kinds of physical discomfort, and a reasonable diet is the key to health and longevity. This result made Liu Yu's courtiers think that His Majesty is saving now. The Son of Heaven is all cutting back on food and clothing for this troubled time, how can they, who are courtiers, be extravagant and wasteful. Under the effect of upward and downward effects, a clear stream appeared in the Shenwu Imperial Court. The loyal and talented people all sighed at Liu Yurende, and they were determined to learn from His Majesty. Those courtiers who usually have no ability to establish themselves in the court for some reason have also restrained a lot and cannot make meritorious contributions, and they don't want to send them to hostile people when everyone is learning from Liu Yu.

This effect is unknown to Liu Yu.

Now there is meat and fish on the desk. It is very suitable for the identity of Liu Bei and the others present. The people present are all rich or expensive, all of them are characters with heads and faces, and of course they are very particular about food.

Although Liu Bei was satisfied, he felt that with so many dishes, the cost was a bit big. Liu Bei looked at Jian Yong inquiringly. Jian Yong had already learned about the situation from his subordinates, and gently came to Liu Bei's side and told Liu Bei about the people's spontaneous contribution of fish and shrimp. Liu Bei was greatly moved, it seems that the benevolence and righteousness he has always flaunted are right, and now he can see the results. Question: How many princes in the world can make the people give automatically? Liu Bei felt that he could be proud.

Knowing that his waist bag was not injured, Liu Bei was in a good mood.

But he didn't know that the delicacies and drinks that were served were all prepared by Li Gui and them, and it would be wonderful later.
