Hearing Wang Yuan call him in, Zhang Zheng would not be polite to him.

Li Chengqian has already finished saying the hypocritical and polite words, but Zhang Zheng has no patience to say it again.

Step through the middle door and you're done.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, Zhang Xiannan, please."

Wang Yuan entered the door and led the way for Li Chengqian in front, and Zhang Zheng and Wang Yin walked behind.

The two don't know each other very well, so they don't have anything to say.

A big family like the Wang family naturally has a banquet hall dedicated to receiving guests.

When Wang Yuan led the three of them to the banquet hall, there was already a guest inside who had arrived before Li Chengqian and Zhang Zheng.

Seeing Li Chengqian and Zhang Zheng enter the door, the man's eyes swept over to the two of them, focusing on Zhang Zheng for a moment.

Zhang Zheng and Li Chengqian also looked at the man curiously, he looked like he was in his forties, dressed in linen clothes, his dark face gave people a feeling of not being angry and arrogant, and his hair was tied into a ponytail at will.

Although they are dressed like a ranger, the people who can go to the Wang family for the banquet, the two will not think that each other is a simple person.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, Zhang Xiannan, this is Liu Jing and Liu Daxia. This is my nephew, Wang Yin. ”

"Liu Daxia, these two are His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Zhang Xiannan."

Seeing that the three of them met their eyes, Wang Yuan briefly introduced the identities of the three of them, and by the way, he also introduced Wang Yin, who had been following Zhang Zheng.

Liu Jing, who was dressed as a ranger, heard Wang Yuan open his mouth to introduce the identities of Li Chengqian and Zhang Zheng.

His face remained unchanged, as if he had known it for a long time, and he did not get up to salute.

Just sitting and arching his hand to the two of them can be regarded as a salute.

Zhang Zheng and Li Chengqian returned the salute with smiles.

Li Chengqian hadn't noticed anything yet, he just thought that the other party was a strange person who was good friends with the Wang family, and he happened to catch up with himself and others to come to the Wang family for a banquet today.

But Zhang Zheng had a sense of realization in his heart.

This person should be the person he is looking for, the Wang family really knows about their existence, and from the current situation, the relationship between the Wang family and them is not shallow.

After introducing each other's identities, everyone sat down according to their status.

Li Chengqian sat in the main seat, Wang Yuan sat in the second seat, and Zhang Zheng's position was arranged opposite the ranger, and Wang Yinjing sat with him.

"Smack! Syllable! ”

Wang Yuan clapped his hands, and Wang's maidservants served all kinds of dishes one by one to the table in front of everyone.

Datang is a separate meal system, and everyone has a small table in front of them.

For a family like the Wang family, the etiquette in dining is even more cumbersome and picky.

Zhong Ming Ding food is just ordinary, and other categories such as no food, no rice, no rice, etc., are all rules.

As the musicians struck the bell and played the music, it was also announced that today's dinner had officially begun.

The order of eating in ancient times was generally to drink wine first, then eat, and finally drink soup.

So the maidservant poured wine for everyone first, Wang Yuan raised his glass, and Zhang Zheng also accompanied them to drink a glass.

During the whole process, no one else made any sound except for the percussion sound made by the musician.

The so-called Ding food, Zhang Zheng has no appetite at all, not to mention such a thick copper tripod, whether the food can be cooked is one thing.

Let's just say that the things in the ding, like soup and minced meat, are sure to be for people to eat?

Again, are wooden chopsticks not easy to use, why do you have to use silver chopsticks, they are slippery and slippery, and you can't hold a piece of meat if you want to.

It's not so much a banquet as a place to find guilt and have a meal, so why are you so solemn and solemn?

Zhang Zheng symbolically ate a few bites, very good, as expected, there was no desire to continue eating.

Zhang Zheng put down his chopsticks and looked at the others in the banquet hall.

Wang Yuan and Wang Yin have long been accustomed to the life of the so-called Zhong Ming Ding Food, so naturally there is no need to say much.

But Li Chengqian can also eat Dingzhong food in an elegant manner, what the hell?

The middle-aged man dressed as a ranger named Liu Jing who was sitting opposite Zhang Zheng ate very deliciously, and he didn't make a sound under the wind and clouds.

Seeing Zhang Zheng staring at him, he leaned forward slightly and threw an inexplicable look at Zhang Zheng.

Then, Zhang Zheng found that he was wearing a pair of straw sandals on his feet, which were the kind of straw sandals made of thatch.

Zhang Zheng wanted to talk to him, but he didn't want to spoil this solemn and solemn scene.

I had to wait for the others to finish eating.

Then, after another half an hour, it was finally time to drink the last soup.

The maidservant first removed the copper tripod on the table, and then put a small Wen Ding on it, and placed a few pieces of red-hot charcoal under the Wen Ding.

This soup was not called soup by the ancients, but called soup, in order to prevent the soup from cooling, it was heated with this small warm ding similar to the cooking pot of later generations, and it was also equipped with a spoon.

After eating a meal, Zhang Zheng felt like he was lonely.

Of course, the so-called banquet must not be just a meal.

After the maidservant cleaned up the banquet hall, everyone was in Wang Yuan's next meeting hall.

That is where Zhang Zheng and Wang Yuan clashed and negotiated a few days ago.

"Your Highness the Prince, please be seated."

Wang Yuan first greeted Li Chengqian, and then said to Zhang Zheng.

"Nephew Zhang Xian, I know that you have a lot of questions, and Liu Daxia is the person invited by the old man to answer his doubts.

In addition, the old man has already prepared the things you want, and he will send someone to Jinyang Palace later. ”

Zhang Zheng got up and saluted Wang Yuan: "Little nephew, thank you Wang Shibo." ”

Wang Yuan waved his hand and motioned for Zhang Zheng to go and talk to Liu Jing, while he and Wang Yin sat down on either side of Li Chengqian.

The two flanked left and right and talked with Li Chengqian.

Looking at it like this, the main reason why Wang Yuan called Zhang Zheng and Li Chengqian to the Wang family for the banquet today was to see the quality of Li Chengqian, the quasi-son-in-law of the Wang family.

"Uh, Liu Daxia?"

Zhang Zheng got up and arched his hand towards Liu Jingyi, feeling that the title of hero was somewhat embarrassing.

"Zhang Xiannan, you don't have to call a hero, just call your name."

Liu Jing hugged his fist towards Zhang Zheng and motioned for Zhang Zheng to sit down.

Without waiting for Zhang Zheng to speak, he said to himself:

"A certain family knows what Zhang Xiannan wants to ask, you and I have actually met a long time ago, just a few months ago.

Before answering Zhang Xiannan's doubts, a certain family wanted to ask Zhang Xiannan a few questions first, and asked Zhang Xiannan to give advice. ”

Hearing this man's somewhat unreasonable request, Zhang Zheng frowned, but still replied patiently: "Liu Daxia, please speak." ”

Seeing that Zhang Zheng agreed, Liu Jing looked directly at Zhang Zheng's eyes and asked, "Zhang Xiannan is the descendant of the public loser?" ”

"It's not."

Zhang Zheng shook his head and said, he knew why the other party asked this question, it should be because of the two Luban locks in his hands.

The man didn't dwell on the first question, and after listening to Zhang Zheng's denial, he immediately asked the second question.

"The theory of light and shadow has always been the secret of my Mo family, how did Zhang Xiannan know about it?"
