Chapter Thirty-Eight: Banquet Guests

It turned out that after summoning An Lehou, Zhang Lingyang still felt very depressed.

Without him, he was used by Wang Guowei.

Many people say that you can be used by others, and that is because you have the value of being used.

But if you really put it on yourself, I'm afraid that few people are willing to be used by others.

How much more is it the king of a country?

Therefore, the more Zhang Lingyang thought about it, the more angry he became, so he ordered someone to draw up this holy decree and punish Wang Guowei with a big commandment.

After the holy decree was given, the depression in Zhang Lingyang's heart was slightly alleviated.

At this time, Feng Xi hurriedly trotted in and said to Zhang Lingyang: "Long live Lord Qiqi, the slave heard that An Lehou is preparing to be a guest for tomorrow's banquet, I wonder if Long Live Lord is interested in participating?" ”

The meaning of Feng Xi's words, of course, was not to really go to An Lehou's banquet, but to let Zhang Lingyang take the opportunity to come to Xingwei's again.

For Wei's family, Feng Xi has also met a few times, and that appearance is really a little more handsome than Shen's.

Zhang Lingyang glared at Feng Xi angrily and said, "I see that you are in a panic, how are the preparations for the draft?" ”

Feng Xi knew that Zhang Lingyang was not really angry, so he smiled and said: "The slave does things, long live the Lord rest assured." Not to mention anything else, the gifts given by the noble ministers alone are worth no less than two million taels of silver. ”

"Really?" Hearing this, Zhang Lingyang couldn't help but smack his tongue.

You know, there's still more than three months left before the draft really starts.

Now that he has received so many gifts, I am afraid that after the draft really starts, Feng Xi will be able to collect more than five million taels.

Thinking that the silver was about to enter his pocket, Zhang Lingyang's heart couldn't help but feel a little excited.

"Do a good job, and your benefits will be indispensable when the time comes!" After encouraging Feng Xi a few words, Zhang Lingyang asked Feng Xi to retreat.

Right now, for Zhang Lingyang, the most important thing is the upcoming first Chef God Contest of Da Zhou, as for the draft, it will be three or four months later.

Yesterday, Xiaofuzi had already returned to Zhang Lingyang, saying that the venue for the competition had been prepared, and the chefs from all over the country had arrived in the capital, and the registration had been completed, and the competition was officially held.

Thinking about the upcoming Chef God Competition, Zhang Lingyang was still a little inexplicably excited in his heart.

After Sun Sheng returned to the palace, Zhang Lingyang immediately ordered him to bring people to make a batch of invitations, and invited a group of civil and military nobles in Beijing to participate in this kitchen god competition.

Of course, the number of invitations is much higher than the number of ministers in Kyochu.

After the invitations were made, Zhang Lingyang ordered someone to call back Xiaofuzi, who was busy outside, and instructed: "You take these invitations and go to major restaurants and teahouses to sell ......."

Xiao Fuzi understood Zhang Lingyang's thoughts, and said again and again: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the slave understands what to do!" ”

After speaking, Xiao Fuzi hurried out of the palace again......

In the Anle Hou Mansion, there are many guests, all of whom are nobles or military generals.

As for Wenchen, he has always been at odds with Wu Xun, so how could he come to congratulate him?

Of course, An Lehou did not invite them to come.

Otherwise, they will be 'the same' one by one, and An Lehou will not have to die of tooth soreness.

During the banquet, there was a staggered mix of ideas and laughter.

In the back house, it is also very lively, laughing and laughing.

However, An Lehou was a little unhappy, because the head of the martial arts, Ningguo Gongsun Ding'an, did not arrive.

Not only did Sun Ding'an not arrive, but the rest of Ning Guofu and others did not participate in the banquet, but only sent a butler to congratulate him.

Although he was not very happy in his heart, An Lehou didn't dare to express it, otherwise, he wouldn't be mixed in the martial arts circle.

However, soon the unhappiness in An Lehou's heart disappeared again.

Because Wang Guowei and his son are here.

"An Guohou is here, and he has missed the distance, please forgive me!" Seeing Wang Guowei's arrival, An Lehou hurriedly got up and shouted to the door to greet him, looking very happy.

Can An Lehou not be happy?

His own family was valued by His Majesty, but Wang Guowei was demoted and demoted.

In contrast to the two, it naturally seems that the Anle Hou Mansion is more prosperous.

In addition, An Lehou has always been at odds with Wang Guowei, and seeing that Wang Guowei was disgusted by His Majesty, An Lehou was naturally extremely happy.

"Congratulations to An Le Hou Rong on being promoted to the commander of the guard!" knew the sarcasm in An Lehou's words, but Wang Guowei did not have a little anger on his face, and still congratulated An Lehou with a smile.

"What's going on? Could it be that Wang Guowei took the wrong medicine before going out today? Seeing Wang Guowei's smiling face, An Lehou was very puzzled.

Although he was confused in his heart, An Lehou's face did not show anything, and he took Wang Guowei's hand and walked towards the hall: "The banquet has been prepared inside, An Guohou, please take a seat first!" ”

Between the words, the three words 'An Guohou' bit very hard.

"An Lehou is polite!" Wang Guowei didn't care at all, and let An Lehou pull him to the main seat, and sat down as if no one was around.

The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have passed five flavors.

Wang Guowei and An Lehou were both a little drunk.

An Lehou put one hand on Wang Guowei's shoulder, and said with an extremely contemptuous smile: "I heard that Your Majesty went to your house again a few days ago?" ”

"Hmm!" Wang Guowei nodded his head, his eyes were confused: "I went, I stayed for more than two hours!" ”

An Lehou smiled on his face, but in his heart he sneered at the kingdom.

"Presumably your daughter-in-law had a hard day, right?" An Lehou asked again.

"Of course, the hard work is a little harder, but fortunately, with your daughter-in-law by your side, it is much easier than before!" Wang Guowei still looked drunk, and even stuttered a little when he spoke.

"What?" An Lehou suddenly froze, put his hand in the air, and put it down for a long time, squinting at Wang Guowei, and asked, "What did An Guohou mean by what he said just now?" ”

"What do you mean?" Wang Guowei sneered and said, "Don't An Lehou know that your daughter-in-law Wei was also at my house that day?" ”

"You mean......" As soon as he opened his mouth, An Lehou stopped his words and didn't dare to say any more.

Wang Guowei didn't care about this, and said to himself: "Why do you think Your Majesty wants to reward your father and son?" Is it really just because of the merits of the Yang ancestor? Naive! At this time, Wang Guowei's eyes were still a little drunk, and his knife-like eyes stabbed straight at An Lehou.

"What do I say?" An Lehou was only stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses, smiled bitterly, and drank the wine glass on the table.

Because the voices of the two of them were very low when they spoke, and the hall was full of the noise of guests, no one heard what An Lehou and Wang Guowei were saying.

"You're not angry? Not angry? Seeing that An Lehou just smiled bitterly, Wang Guowei asked suspiciously.

After all, in the kingdom's conjecture, An Lehou at this time should be extremely angry, and even directly flipped the table.

But as a result, An Lehou just smiled bitterly.

Immediately, An Lehou's face returned to normal, glanced at Wang Guowei, and said, "Why is the old man angry and angry? If it weren't for this, how could the old man and father and son get His Majesty's reward? ”

Vaguely, An Lehou's eyes revealed a hint of excitement.

Although it was well hidden, it was seen by Wang Guowei.

"You ......" stretched out his hand and pointed at An Lehou, and the kingdom was speechless.

Because now that he has come to his senses, An Lehou knows all this......
