Chapter 383: Another Purpose
After such an unpleasant incident, John left the place under the pretext of a tiring journey and returned to the Honglu Temple to rest.
Chu Ying, Lu Yanqing, and Chu Qiongxi did not leave in a hurry, but speculated on the true purpose of Shengyeguo's visit.
The diplomacy between countries has the purpose of benefiting both sides, but Da Chu and the Shengye Kingdom can't fight each other, and they can't do it at all, so the three of them feel that the Shengye Kingdom has another purpose for this trip.
"Yan Qing, what do you think of the visit of the Holy Jesus?" Chu Ying put down the teacup and asked Lu Yanqing in a loud voice.
Lu Yanqing said his thoughts when he heard this: "It's strange that they have been visiting Dachu for a long time, but they have never explained their intentions, which is obviously not normal. ”
Chu Ying bowed slightly, he and Lu Yanqing basically had the same opinion.
"Father, I suggest that the people of the Holy Kingdom be closely monitored, and that they be checked for any unusual behavior on their way here; As Gentiles, they will attract the attention of the people once they appear in Dachu, and it should not be difficult to investigate their whereabouts. ”
Chu Qiongxi gave Chu Ying advice very calmly, Chu Ying's face was full of satisfaction when he heard this, and he couldn't help but praise loudly: "A woman worthy of me, if she really has the same foresight as me, she is much better than your two imperial brothers; It's a pity that you are a daughter, otherwise I would have to make you a prince. ”
"Thank you for your compliment, I didn't learn from you."
Lu Yanqing wanted to leave, but Chu Ying forcibly left the two behind, and he had to let Lu Yanqing and Chu Qiongxi spend the night in the palace.
It was difficult to resist the hospitality, Lu Yanqing had no choice but to agree, and the heavy responsibility of dinner naturally fell on Lu Yanqing's shoulders.
At this time, there were still some hours before the evening, so Lu Yanqing and Chu Qiongxi returned to Fuyao Palace to rest.
I haven't come back for a long time, and Fang Qing, the little maid of Chu Qiongxi, misses Chu Qiongxi very much, and she is tired of Chu Qiongxi for a while before she is willing to part.
Lu Yanqing is not incomprehensible about this, Fang Qing has been serving Chu Qiongxi's daily life since he was a child, and he can be regarded as Chu Qiongxi's childhood playmate, although the two are masters and servants, they are like sisters, and the two are also dependent on each other.
Once Chu Qiongxi left the palace, she was the only one left in the entire Fuyao Palace, which made Fang Qing feel very lonely.
In this regard, Chu Qiongxi was also a little unbearable, so he discussed with Lu Yanqing to prepare to bring Fang Qing to Yuxi Academy.
Although Chu Qiongxi knew that this would make it a little difficult for Lu Yanqing, Chu Qiongxi didn't want Fang Qing to live alone in this huge Fuyao Palace.
Under Chu Qiongxi's soft grinding and hard bubbles, Lu Yanqing finally agreed, but the conditions of Yuxi Academy were not as comfortable as those in the imperial city, and Lu Yanqing asked Fang Qing to prepare mentally in advance.
After Fang Qing learned that Lu Yanqing agreed, he was grateful to Lu Yanqing.
For Fang Qing, she has done all the dirty work, as long as she can follow Chu Qiongxi, she will feel very relieved.
The reason why Lu Yanqing agreed to come down was mainly because it was a little hard for Li Sisi to work at home alone, although Mo Wanyan's three daughters would often help Li Sisi, but for a sixteen or seventeen-year-old child, this was indeed a bit burdensome.
In the afternoon, Lu Yanqing and Chu Qiongxi were a little tired, so they snuggled up in bed and fell asleep.
When I woke up, it was already evening, and Lu Yanqing, Chu Qiongxi, and Fang Qing rushed to the imperial dining room.
What Lu Yanqing didn't expect was that Fang Qing actually had some attainments in cooking, although he was not as proficient as Li Sisi, but under Lu Yanqing's command, he could already cook some meals on his own.
With the joint efforts of the three of them, a table of meals was prepared in a short time.
Because he was going to entertain the prince of the Holy Yeh, Lu Yanqing didn't make the meal too exquisite, just fool it around.
Moreover, Lu Yanqing also put all the delicious meals on the side close to Chu Ying, and those undelicious meals were placed in front of John.
Lu Yanqing is very grudgeful, John actually wants to take advantage of Chu Qiongxi, how can Lu Yanqing spare him?
A quarter of an hour later, Chu Ying and John entered the dining room together, and all the other attendants were stopped outside, which made John's face pale.
"Your Majesty, what do you mean by this?" John asked Chu Yingfa in confusion.
Hearing this, Chu Ying smiled at John and said, "It's just eating, Prince John doesn't need to panic." ”
After that, Chu Ying sat down on the main seat, and John was arranged by Lu Yanqing to sit down opposite.
Looking at the delicious meal in front of him, John couldn't help but swallow.
Shengye Kingdom is far less abundant than Dachu, and there is also a great surprise in food culture.
At this time, John was like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, and he was full of curiosity about the taste of each dish.
Lu Yanqing and Chu Qiongxi also sat down with Chu Ying, and the two sat on the left and right sides of Chu Ying respectively.
"Well, let's eat."
After that, Chu Ying took the lead in moving chopsticks, followed by Lu Yanqing and Chu Qiongxi.
Impatiently, he picked up the chopsticks and wanted to pick up the vegetables, but John, who was used to using knives and forks, had a great time using the chopsticks, and it took a lot of effort to get the food into his mouth.
After tasting it carefully, John couldn't help but praise it, although it was just an ordinary green vegetable, it was unusually delicious, which greatly surprised John.
But when he learned that the meals on this table were all made by Lu Yanqing, John's face suddenly froze, and then he smiled at Lu Yanqing, not only expressing his gratitude to Lu Yanqing, but also apologizing for his reckless behavior.
John is so humble that he is the richest and most powerful country on their side, and all the surrounding countries have to pay tribute to him.
Although it can't be compared with the vast and rich Da Chu, but there is a vast desert between the two countries, Da Chu will definitely not choose to provoke the Holy Ghost Country, and the Holy Cause Kingdom will not provoke the Great Chu, from the perspective of the country, the status of the two sides should be equal, but John's attitude at this time is too humble.
"Prince John, I don't know what you are doing with your mission to visit Dachu? It can't just be a visit, right? ”
Chu Ying asked John with a warm smile, Chu Ying was obviously testing John.
Hearing this, a flash of panic flashed in John's eyes, and he hurriedly explained: "We are here to ...... this trip."
John was talking nonsense, and he didn't get to the point.
The panic in John's eyes was captured by Lu Yanqing, and it seems that John's purpose in coming to Dachu is really not simple.
While eating and chatting, John was all green vegetables and turnips and green onions recently, no matter how delicious they were, they were less than one-ten-thousandth of the delicacies of the mountains and seas, so he could only smile far-fetched......
