Chapter Ninety-Six: Haiyan Tower

Lu Qingjin and the others followed the flow of people and saw a brilliant restaurant, the whole building was made of expensive yellow wood, which was very magnificent under the reflection of the night lights, like an incompatible city gate.

Concubine Yun shook her fan to drive away mosquitoes and said, "This is the restaurant of King Wei's prince!" From the outside, it looks a little interesting, but I don't think it's so weird! It's still pretty good-looking. ”

Lu Qingjin looked up, and even a bright red sign above the dark yellow building had a few big characters written on it, and it was not strange that he said that it had become like this! It's more of a tourist attraction than a place to eat.

Concubine Li also seemed to see it and said thoughtfully: "This prince of Wei is very thoughtful, but it's a pity that he doesn't understand what the people really need, I'm afraid that this restaurant is full of the few rich people in the capital." ”

Lu Qingjin walked in with everyone and said: "No, just looking at this brand, his appetite is not small, Haiyan Heqing!" I don't know, I thought it was a royal restaurant! ”

A few people entered the hall and the person at the door immediately said: "A few ladies must be distinguished guests, but we don't have a private room here, if you don't mind, you can take a break in the hall!" ”

In fact, there is no one in the hall at all, and the decoration is very comfortable, a few people took a look at a corner and sat down, Concubine Yun smiled while shaking her fan: "Sisters' guess is really good, look at where there is an ordinary person in this hall!" I don't know, I thought it was a family banquet of that family! ”

A young man came over and said, "What do you want to eat?" ”

Concubine Shu coughed, and when she saw that no one was speaking, she said: "You have ten dishes for the better dishes here, I have long heard that this newly opened restaurant is not ordinary, I hope you don't let us down." ”

The young man's eyes lit up and he hurriedly said, "This is the restaurant of the prince of Wei, madam, just wait and see, I promise you want to come a second time!" ”

Lu Qingjin felt what real wealth was for the first time since she came here, she looked at Concubine Shu with a complicated expression and said, "You are really generous!" Just a few of us, not to mention ten dishes, even five dishes can't be eaten! ”

Concubine Shu waved her hand and said nonchalantly: "What's this, it's just a few dishes left, and when we go out, we'll give the rest to the beggars in the city!" When I came in, I saw a lot of beggars outside the building! ”

The guy who served the food laughed when he heard this: "Madame, this is not often out, you should leave the beggars at the door of this building alone, they are all some market splashes, and they have brain problems." ”

Lu Qingjin frowned: "I looked at the few people at the door who were old and weak, women and children, even if they were occasionally tall, they were yellow-faced and thin, not at all what you said about the appearance of the market." ”

The guy was a little embarrassed and said, "I just said casually that you don't have to care, this dish is already ready, you can eat slowly!" If there is something to call it small! ”

Concubine Shu stretched out her chopsticks and put a little bit in her mouth: "What is this!" Bamboo shoots don't taste as good as green onions in your kitchen! Just like that, I dare to say what delicacies from the mountains and seas, I look at it and look fresh! ”

Lu Qingjin also tasted it, I don't know what kind of meat was made of firewood and old, and there was only a mouthful of oil left in her mouth, she put down her chopsticks and said meaninglessly: "There is indeed something wrong with this dish, even if the ingredients are fresh, it is impossible to have so many guests, I think there is something strange behind this matter." ”

Concubine Li thought more and looked around and whispered: "I once heard my brother talk about the previous dynasty, saying that the original emperor once opened a restaurant, and the food in this restaurant is very unpalatable, the purpose is to drive away unimportant people, and most of the people who stayed are some ministers of the court, and they are plotting something inconvenient to say here." ”

Concubine Yun took two bites and put down her chopsticks: "There is indeed something wrong with this Haiyan Tower, and those beggars at the door are not right, but I don't know why the emperor didn't send someone to take a look!" ”

Lu Qingjin took a sip of tea and said lightly: "What's so strange, hasn't the emperor already sent a few of us?" I think it's been calculated a long time ago, and if you want to use me to explore the truth, you have been affected. ”

Concubine Xian seemed to have found a roast pigeon that suited her taste, and said happily while eating: "When I first started, I thought that the emperor was a righteous gentleman, but now it seems that he is just the same conspirator. ”

Several people laughed, and before they could say anything, they heard an argument at the door: "What else are you going to do?" We don't want any more money, can't we just spend the night here? ”

Lu Qingjin frowned and walked over, four people, you look at me, I will see you stay for a while and follow, an old woman at the door stood there holding a child who was only eight or nine years old, and the child was still holding the sugar gourd handed to him by Lu Qingjin.

Concubine Xian was already hot-tempered, but she still had a good impression of this child, and she didn't care about anything else at the moment, so she walked over and scolded: "Who are you?" Such a young child is bullied, is there any royal law in this world! ”

Several guards guarding the door smiled, and one of them said politely: "Since Madame has entered the restaurant to eat, don't worry about these other things, you also know that there are some high-ranking officials and nobles in this capital, and it is really not worth offending people who should not be offended for the sake of these untouchables, what do you say?" ”

Concubine Xian sneered: "I don't think that there are a lot of people in this building who want to have an identity, and there should be a lot of people like you who are high and low, but I don't think there are many people whose status can be higher than mine." ”

Lu Qingjin originally wanted to stop it, but she had already said this, so she could only say helplessly: "We're just here for a meal, don't say anything about this identity, you give these people a little silver and forget about today's matter!" ”

Concubine Xian seemed to be still angry, and Concubine Yun silently pulled her. Who knew that as soon as Lu Qingjin's words fell, he heard a voice from the stairs and said: "You guys are too much, why don't you hurry up and do what the ladies say, if I see you do such a thing again, this Haiyan Tower will not be able to keep you in the future!" ”

Lu Qingjin felt that there was a problem just now, but she didn't expect that something would happen after a while, she turned around and looked at it helplessly when she heard this voice.

Zhao Yunheng, who was richly dressed on the stairs, was looking at them with a smile.
