Jincheng, a bright and spacious hall. In the space of the carved columns www.biquge.info the pen and the pavilion, the sound of silk and bamboo is endless, and the women of the warbler and the swallow are shuttling back and forth like flowers, decorating this space with extraordinarily gorgeous.

This is the largest Juxian restaurant in Jincheng, which has always been a frequent place for the wealthy people in Wuzhou, and can reach up to 1,000 guests every night.

But today, in addition to the constant flow of people in this restaurant, the real guests are only a table in the hall.

It turned out that since the Seven Princes came to Jincheng, the owner of the Juxian Restaurant also followed Gan Wenyao as a representative of the gentry, and after he met the Seven Princes, he offered to pick up the wind and wash the dust for him.

So this restaurant, which was usually full of guests, was only opened for the Seven Princes.

At this time, there were about a dozen people sitting at the big table in the middle. On the main seat in the center is the dashing Seven Princes. On both sides of the main seat, Qi Hezheng and Fang Haoze, who accompanied him to Wuzhou to control the water.

According to the seat of the right, the right side of the prince is the three-grade Ministry of Industry Shangshu Qi Hezheng, and the left side of the prince is the newly promoted six-grade water control inspection Fang Haoze.

Outside the three of them, there was also Gan Wenyao, the governor of Wuzhou, who was sitting next to Qi He. The other few people are important subordinate officials under Gan Wenyao's academic circles in Wuzhou.

On the agarwood round table covered with a gold silk tablecloth, there are all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and the owner of Juxian Restaurant stands at the table with a group of subordinates and waits for everyone on the table.

In this banquet, there is really no Bai Ding, and the worst official position is Fang Haoze, who is only six grades.

But even so, no one dared to despise him.

Not to mention, he also has a four-grade uncle Li Jinyu, who is also quite talented.

Now it is unanimously favored by the Seven Princes and the Emperor, and it is said that even the emperor is reluctant to release it, and has promised to be the elder of the pavilion.

"The Seventh Prince, although Wuzhou is also rich, it is still difficult to compare with Bai Yujing, who gathers the essence of the world, and the lower officials can only prepare this reception banquet and ask the prince to forgive his sins. Gan Wenyao looked at the prince and said respectfully.

"Lord Gan is polite, I'm afraid this banquet will cost a lot, such a luxurious banquet, I only arrived in Wuzhou today, and it is difficult to be gracious, but I don't want to take it as an example."

The Seventh Prince looked at the table of dishes in front of him and said with a smile on his face. He himself does not pursue extravagance, that is because the royal wealth has reached the extreme of the world, and he has long seen through the ostentatious grandeur of the nouveau riche.

But Gan Wenyao's dinner party is much more than ordinary wealth. In addition, these three-grade adults, after seeing themselves today, they have been low and small, and when they are happy, they will naturally give them face during the banquet.

"The Seventh Prince is noble, even if this table is ten times more expensive, it is not worthy of being called extravagant by the prince. Gan You hurriedly replied.

"Haha, I didn't expect Lord Gan to speak so humorously, the dishes on this table are not ordinary. The Seventh Prince waved his hand and said with a smile.

"All of you here are important ministers of the imperial court, and the prince is coming to Wuzhou for the first time, how can we not be careful. Gan Wenyao was praised by the Seven Princes, and his face was a little fluttering.

"Well, I have taught you your intentions, the journey has been tiring for the past few days, and it has been a long time since the morning meal, so let's start the banquet. "The Seventh Prince, as the main seat, first ordered the opening of the seat.

Naturally, everyone agreed, and the glamorous maids stood behind the guests one by one, what dishes they wanted, as long as they glanced at them, there were naturally beautiful women waiting behind them.

"Seven Princes, you try this. "The ball-like Gan Wenyao must be a senior foodie, who can enliven the atmosphere at the dinner table, and persuades the wine and food from time to time.

While persuading, he looked at all sides with his eyes, and made sure that the Seventh Prince was quite satisfied with his reception, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

At the same time, he noticed Fang Haoze diagonally opposite, his eyes rolled, and he suddenly remembered the information he had gotten: This young man's home had been broken once in the early years, and he had lived in the temple for many years, and he had also suffered hardships.

In his eyes, at this time, Fang Haoze was calmly tasting a dish sandwiched by the maids behind him, and his expression was very indifferent.

At this time, Gan Wenyao suddenly raised his wine glass and said to the Seventh Prince: "Prince, the lower official will give you a glass." This incense wine is the most warm, and the output is not much in a year, and Xia Guan has only tasted it once after being stained with your light today. ”

"Incense wine is produced in Xizhou, it's really not much, and I don't get much every year, this wine is good. The Seventh Prince smiled and agreed, and also picked up his wine glass and tasted it.

"The Seventh Prince is in Bai Yujing, he hasn't tried anything, you say this, you are laughing with the lower officials. Gan Wenyao pretended to wipe his sweat and said with a deliberate smile.

Then, he changed his words and pointed to a stack of tender red meat slices on the table that were as thin as cicada wings: "Fang Inspector is the number one young talent in the world, and this stack of rainbow trout meat is just right for you." I don't know if the patrol can know its origin?"

Gan Wenyao asked, his expression was not smiling. He wanted to step on Fang Haoze's body to take the position, so naturally he couldn't help but find opportunities to suppress the other party from time to time.

At this time, what he thought in his heart was that the young man in front of him had been bitter since he was a child, and he must not be able to tell the origin of the rainbow trout. In front of the Seven Princes, this can be regarded as a fool. Inevitably leave a bad impression of shallow knowledge.

Because it was spoken at the banquet, this difficulty was not serious, and the timing was also very clever.

"I've heard about this rainbow trout, and I don't know what kind of profound advice I have to give to Guancheng. Hearing Gan Wenyao's question, the Seventh Prince also said with some interest.

After all, he has been rich and noble since he was a child, and he can't hear the difficult meaning in Gan Wenyao's words, in his concept, rainbow trout is not an uncommon thing, but he really wants to take this opportunity to listen to Fang Haoze's high opinion.

When Gan Wenyao heard the words of the Seventh Prince, he smiled in his heart, with a treacherous mentality. "We all know that rainbow trout are produced in Yunzhou, and if Fang Inspector only introduces such a point, everyone will not follow it, and they will be punished for drinking. ”

Gan Wenyao's sudden attack, Fang Haoze had actually been prepared for a long time in his heart.

Before, on the official road, when he was received by the crowd, Fang Haoze felt the hostility of the other party. It's just that he is a fourth-order demigod after all, and this third-rank master is just a big ant in his eyes, and he doesn't pay attention to his attitude.

After being received, and later until this banquet, Fang Haoze also spoke to the Seventh Prince by chance, and the rest of the time was quite indifferent, but he didn't expect this calm performance to be considered cowardly by others, and he was compared to him as an uninformed country boy.

This is simply out of nowhere, and a trace of annoyance flashed in Fang Haoze's heart—both for the attitude of others looking down on him, and for the courage of that Gan Wenyao to dare to provoke him.

Thinking of this, he gently put down the chopsticks in his hand and looked directly at Gan Wenyao, although his eyes were calm, his momentum was amazing.

He suddenly changed his smiling face, as if a breeze was blowing: "Since the seventh prince is also interested, then I know everything and say everything." ”
