Chapter Seventy-Seven: I'm sorry, this was really a misunderstanding
Lu Zixu dared to conclude that he had never eaten such an unpalatable meal since he came out of his mother's womb.
It's not because the food is unpalatable, on the contrary, in order to keep the envoy of Lu and buy time for the Baishan Army to come to the capital, Lu Zixu also used the best chef and directly called the imperial chef of the palace.
Regarding Lu Zixu's request to call the imperial kitchen, which is almost arrogant, Wang Guo naturally expressed his affirmation.
After all, he was not afraid of these courtiers overstepping the rules. I even wish that these dog minions would be as concerned about the things in their palace as possible......
If only these dog slaves could get out of their palace, then good!
So Lu Zixu just asked to call the imperial kitchen, but Wang Guo didn't ask the reason at all, and immediately approved.
After all, he often nested in Tian Xuan's palace, and a lot of the food he ate was made by Tian Xuan himself, and he didn't feel any influence.
As for Sima Wanyi, these eunuchs and palace maids want to eat the food cooked by the imperial kitchen?
What does that have to do with widows?
Anyway, he is not a good person who will help him lose his country, and this meal is a little worse!
Receiving this kind of unconditional trust from Wang Guo, Lu Zixu couldn't help but be grateful. Sure enough, the king knew him best, and directly called the imperial kitchen, and he didn't have any doubts about him at all!
I have to say that although Haiguo is a small country, the imperial chef still has two meals, and the food is very delicious.
But Lu Zixu is difficult to swallow, the key is that he is not in the mood to eat at all!
He negotiated with the envoy of Lu at the dinner table, just to find a way to keep the other party, so as to get a chance for himself to check the silver again.
The envoy of Lu was very happy to eat. After all, the craftsmanship of the Haiguo Imperial Chef is not bad, and he can put enough salt......
That's right, don't look at him as an envoy of the Lu country, but in the Lu country, salt still can't be eaten casually.
After all, it is now an eventful time for the state of Lu, and it urgently needs to sell salt to the countries of the Central Plains to restore the economy.
Therefore, Lu Guogong strictly restricted the distribution of salt to them, so as to save more salt and sell it in the Central Plains.
Therefore, the envoys of the Lu State basically have a meal that can eat some salt, and the food is naturally not as delicious as that of the Hai Kingdom......
When Lu Zixu invited him to eat, and put an appropriate amount of salt in each dish, the saliva of the envoy of Lu was almost able to swallow the plate.
"Messenger, don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry, it's a lot of ......" Lu Zixu looked at the envoy of Lu who was eating like a pig, and couldn't help but smack his lips.
The envoy of the Lu State still kept pulling the food into his mouth, and while eating, he said vaguely: "What are the conditions of your Haiguo, you have a mine at home, and you can eat salt all at once?" Haiguo is really a treasure land......"
Lu Zixu shrugged his shoulders and sneered in his heart, damn it made you look down on Haiguo just now, after a meal, don't you still have to kneel and lick it now?
But Lu Zixu was also secretly relieved in his heart, and his brows were still wrinkled.
Because according to his estimate, at this time, the people of the Baishan Army should have arrived, why haven't they arrived yet?
Could it be that something happened on the way?
Lu Zixu is in a hurry here, but the envoy of Lu is not in a hurry, he is full of wine and food, his attitude is not so horizontal, and he is much more polite when he speaks.
"Lu Gong, thank you for your hospitality! The meal was very satisfying. If nothing happens......"
Before the envoy of Lu finished speaking, he heard the sudden crowd around the restaurant.
"It's in this building, don't let him run!"
Lu Zixu looked out the window, and the black pressure was overwhelming, and the restaurant they were in was surrounded by water.
What's going on? Where did the army come from?
At this moment, there was a sound of rapid footsteps in the stairs, and the forbidden army sent by Lu Zixu came to Lu Zixu and gave a military salute.
"Report to Lord Lu, the general has arrived with a thousand hundred good troops, and at this moment the hundred good army has been assembled and is waiting for dispatch!"
Lu Zixu: ???
Why are so many people here?
The Baishan Army drove directly from Pingcheng to here?
Immediately, he suddenly came to his senses.
If it's broken, it's going to be wrong, and the orders are ambiguous!
Before, he instructed the forbidden army to go to Pingcheng to invite the Baishan Army, meaning that he wanted to use the civilian masters in the Baishan Army to help him check the silver......
But when these words reached the ears of the forbidden army, it was understood that Lu Zixu wanted to mobilize the army......
So he hurried to Pingcheng non-stop, and when he saw Jiang Shen, he said that Lu Zixu was very anxious and hoped that the general would transfer the Baishan Army to the capital.
When Jiang Shen heard this, he thought that something was wrong in the capital, and he was startled.
Hurriedly counted the army, brought a thousand hundred good troops, took advantage of the night to kill directly from Pingcheng to the capital, and surrounded the restaurant where Lu Zixu and the envoys of Lu Guo were located......
Because it was naturally more troublesome to lead the troops, Jiang Shen arrived with the troops later than Lu Zixu expected.
Hey, isn't that embarrassing?
Seeing that the army outside was solemn and murderous, the face of the envoy of the Lu State turned white, the chopsticks were unstable, and he trembled when he spoke: "Lu Gong, didn't I just say a few words of pretending to be forced, as for mobilizing so many troops to arrest me......
Lu Zixu's face was also a little embarrassed. After all, he really didn't want to mobilize the army, he just wanted to borrow a master who could test silver from the Baishan Army......
"Messenger, I said it was a misunderstanding, do you believe it?"
……
Tonight's wind, it feels a bit strong.
Jiang Shen, Lu Zixu, and the envoy of Lu Guo stared at each other with big eyes.
Jiang Shen: For this matter, you want to transfer troops from Pingcheng to arrest people?
Envoy of Lu State: Just this matter, you sent so many people to arrest me?
Lu Zixu: Hey, that's not what I meant, I can't explain it to you...... It's uncomfortable!
Just when the situation was at a stalemate, suddenly someone outside the door shouted, "The king has arrived!" ”
Wang Guo walked in surrounded by everyone, and his face gradually became gloomy.
Originally, he was quite happy.
When Sima Wanyi ran to Wang Guo's side in a panic and said that Jiang Shen had ordered a thousand hundred good troops to kill from Pingcheng to the capital, Wang Guo was still a little excited.
Why, this dog minion has finally opened his mind now, and is he going to take the position of the widow?
This happiness came too suddenly!!
"All the way, open the gates!" Wang Guo was overjoyed at that time.
As a result, Wang Guo was in the palace, and he couldn't wait for the left and the right. After asking Sima Wanyi to send someone to inquire, he learned that after Jiang Shen entered the city, he did not go to the palace, but led troops to surround the restaurant where Lu Zixu was located......
That's it?
Why did the people mobilize the people just to surround an envoy of the Lu State?
Although the widow was indeed a little unhappy with the fact that Lu Guo repaid the money too quickly, he directly transferred a thousand troops to surround him......
Look at the envoys of the Lu State who scared people! These dog minions, you really have them!
The country is not contributing, and the trivial things are in a hurry.
Wang Guo narrowed his eyes: "Say, what's going on?" ”
