"Lord Liu, please hurry up, we all said that we hit it off at first sight, how can you make this big gift?"

Tang Ping pulled Liu Hong up and said, "Don't say anything about dying, although there is something that needs Lord Liu's help, there is no danger in thinking about it." ”

"Pingguo Gong, please command."

"It's up to you to find me a few hairs from your king or a sick prince."

"Hair?" Liu Hong looked at Tang Ping blankly.

"yes, it's just the best hair, it shouldn't be difficult, right?"

Liu Hong thought for a while and said, "No one can approach Your Majesty now, but Your Majesty will occasionally appear in the main hall during the early dynasty. Looking at his appearance, there is still a palace maid to sort out his clothes, and the lower officials will think of a way. ”

Although their Honglu Temple is to receive foreign guests, but a small country like Nanzhao does not have a huge institution like the Tang Dynasty, and it is not difficult to inquire who is the palace maid in charge.

As long as you find someone, you can find a way.

"Wait, Lord Liu will help me with my errands, so I have to do a little bit of something." Tang Ping took out a box of gold ingots and put it in front of him: "You take these first, don't be polite where you want to throw money." ”

Now because the Tang Dynasty began to use gold and silver currency, gold is also hard currency.

Liu Hong thought about it, Tang Ping was reasonable, looking for someone to do things was nothing more than coercion and temptation.

It's too difficult to coerce, so it's easier to lure.

With Tang Ping's financial support, it is much easier.

Ask Tang Ping to give him news, and he went out with the gold.

First went back to Honglu Temple, he remembered that a subordinate sister was working in the palace, and he inquired about it, and sure enough, he asked who was serving the current king of Nanzhao.

When he came to the palace gate, Liu Hong was stopped.

He arrogantly flashed his sign and said: "I am Liu Hong, the young secretary of Honglu Temple, and now the Tang Pingguo Gong wants to order a few dishes to eat in our imperial dining room, who will report it?" ”

Several guards looked at it, ran in and reported the matter to Zheng Luofeng.

After all, the guards in this palace are now controlled by Zheng Luofeng.

After listening to the words from the people below, Zheng Luofeng frowned.

But think about Tang Ping

Such a person must be pampered in Chang'an, and when he comes to a remote place like Nanzhao, it is estimated that the imperial chef in the imperial dining room can barely enter his eyes.

So he nodded and agreed: "Let Liu Hong go, no matter what Tang Pingguo Gong wants to eat, as long as there is something, make it for him." ”

Tang Ping, such a great god, came to Nanzhao, which he absolutely did not want to see.

Now he just thinks about hello, hello, hello, everyone, send Tang Ping, the Bodhisattva, away as soon as possible, and everything will be fine.

So there's no need to do anything out of the ordinary.

So Liu Hong was let in, and someone led him to the imperial dining room.

After entering, he casually pointed to a cook who looked like a Han Chinese: "You're Han, aren't you?" Will you cook the dishes from Chang'an? Ping Guogong said that he wanted to eat Chang'an food. ”

The cook said honestly: "The master of the villain's master is the master of Pingguo Gong's Xiaoluo, everyone learned to cook, I do know how to cook Chang'an cuisine, but the craftsmanship is definitely not as good as what Pingguo Gong ate in Chang'an." ”

"Aren't you talking nonsense?" Liu Hong glanced at him: "Ping Guogong didn't expect to be able to eat the same as Chang'an, as long as the taste is similar, it's okay, you make two soup dishes first, Ping Guogong wants to drink soup, I'll wait here." ”

The order from above was to ask them to cooperate with Liu Hong, so the cooks had no opinion and helped to do it.

After a while, the cook brought out two bowls of soup, and Liu Hong looked at it and pouted: "Look for yourself, see for yourself, the dishes in this soup have been ground by you?" Do you dare to serve this to Ping Guogong? I go to Chang'an and find a restaurant to do better than this! Redo! ”

The cooks have no choice, and now Liu Hong is the biggest here, and he said that if you redo it, you will redo it.

I was about to go back with the soup bowl, but I was stopped by Liu Hong: "What are you doing with it?" Didn't you see the guard brothers who came with me so hard? Treat them to eat! ”

The cooks blew their beards, put the soup bowl heavily in front of the guards who brought Liu Hong in, and went in again.

The two guards didn't expect to send Liu Hong to such a good thing, don't look at Liu Hong's depreciation of the soup and dishes to worthless, but after all, this is the imperial dining room of Nanzhao, and this is already the highest level of Nanzhao's cooking skills.

When will guards like them be able to eat such a meal?

I confirmed with Liu Hong, indeed

I thought it was really for them to drink, and the two of them were not polite, one of them picked up a bowl, and took a pair of chopsticks to eat and drink.

I drank two large bowls of soup in minutes.

I have to say that this imperial kitchen may be worse than Chang'an's, but the ingredients are absolutely top-quality, and they all think this bowl of soup is the best bowl they have ever drunk in their lives.

Then soon, two more bowls of soup came out, and Liu Hong nodded this time: "It looks good." “

Then he tasted it with a small spoon, frowned again and said, "It's so salty, are you afraid that Ping Guogong hasn't eaten salt?" ”

As he spoke, he gave two bowls of soup to the two guards, and said to the cooks, "Let's redo it." ”

"You're finding fault, aren't you?" This Liu Hong is a Shaoqing of Honglu Temple, and he is not their boss, holding chicken feathers as an arrow, which is obviously looking for trouble.

A cook roared out without anger in his heart, Liu Hong pretended to be startled, leaned back, and just hit the hands of two guards who were drinking soup.

And the soup in their hands was poured on their heads and faces.

"Are you alright?" Liu Hong asked with concern, and then said to the two guards with some grievances: "You also know that it was Lord Bu Xie who said that he wanted to arrange the meal for Ping Guogong, why is this what I am looking for?" ”

The two guards were of course on his side because Liu Hong was eating and drinking here, and it was indeed Zheng Luofeng who gave such an order.

He wiped his face with a rag and pointed at the cooks and said, "Do you dare to disobey Lord Buxie's orders?" ”

Now Zheng Luofeng is basically controlling inside and outside the palace, and although the faces of several cooks are so dark, they don't dare to refute, so they can only snort and continue to enter the kitchen.

Liu Hong took out two silver ingots from his pocket and stuffed them into the hands of the two guards: "Although I didn't mean it just now, I still can't help the two of you, and this money should be used as the cost of laundry." ”

The two of them felt a sinking in their hands, and looked at the silver ingot and laughed: "Lord Liu is too polite, we are all obedient to orders, these cooks don't know what to do, wait for our brothers to change their clothes and come back, if they don't do it well, we will help you report to Zheng Buxie." ”

Liu Hong smiled and watched the two go to change clothes, then looked at the sky, and said hurry up, time is running out.
