Mochizuki Tower is the best restaurant in Jinzhou City.

The person who opened this restaurant was Kong Youde's father-in-law, Tian Chonggui.

Yang Chengying's big matchmaker asked Tian E to marry Kong Youde.

Because of Kong Youde's face and Tian Chonggui's own interpersonal relationships, the business of Mochizuki Tower is prosperous.

In order to welcome the wedding envoy sent by the imperial court, Tian Chonggui suspended the restaurant and asked Yang Cheng to entertain the wedding envoy.

On the second floor of the restaurant, there are three round tables, each with eight dishes.

Roast chicken with potatoes, roast duck over charcoal, steamed fish head, braised pork, etc., the wine is the Fenjiu of Xinghua Village.

This is already the best table at the moment.

Zhu Chunchen looked disgusted: "Mr. Yang, you just use these to entertain distinguished guests?" ”

"At present, there is a great drought in eastern Liaoning, and there is no harvest of crops."

Yang Chengying said: "I know that Grandpa Zhu is used to eating brocade clothes and jade, and he is not used to eating food in this poor country, so please bear with me." ”

Zhu Chunchen raised his eyebrows and sneered: "I have come all the way, and I have seen that Jinzhou Town is very prosperous, as a general soldier, how can you live a poor life." Now use these things to block me, it's obviously selling miserably. ”

The first step in asking for money is to find faults.

The banquet is so bad, it is Yang Chengying who sent himself to the door, and he didn't look for fault in vain.

Ning Wan, who was standing behind Yang Chengying, immediately saw it, and after coughing lightly, he secretly gestured to Yang Chengying with his finger with the word "two".

Meaning, the other party did it on purpose, and quickly took out the 20,000 taels.

Yang Cheng understood and glanced at Zu Zerun.

Zu Zerun retreated, and a moment later, with his personal guards, he came in carrying twenty-three boxes.

Each box contained between 800 and 1,000 taels of silver.

Twenty-three chests, exactly twenty thousand taels of silver.

This is Yang Chengying's upper limit, but it is Zhu Chunchen's lower limit.

20,000 taels, called Hua Zili. For the next trip to Jiangnan, at least 30,000 taels will be given, and generally 50,000 taels.

Moreover, it's not interesting to just eat, what about the girl who sings?

"Mr. Yang, you really sold miserably in front of me."

Zhu Chunchen sneered: "I have heard Lord Wan say that you give 300,000 taels of silver to the Ordnance Bureau without even blinking an eyelid." ”

"How can you save money on military affairs." Yang Chengying pushed back, "If you want to save money, you can just control the pass, why bother to run the outside of the pass." ”

"Hmph, you're using this money to send Hanako."

Zhu Chunchen refused to even sit down, stood up, and left the table angrily.

The accompanying officials, Ming Yan and other servants all left.

Three round tables, in an instant, only Yang Chengying was left.

"Sit down." Yang Chengying greeted the guards, "Such a good dish must not be wasted." ”

Wu Sangui said worriedly: "Grandpa Zhu leaves like this, will it be detrimental to the handsome." ”

Yang Chengying hadn't responded yet, so I lifted my robe and sat down first: "Even if it's unfavorable, it's not now." The brothers haven't eaten such a sumptuous meal for a long time, so they all come to eat. ”

"Yes. This meal, they don't eat, we eat. ”

Yang Chengying said: "Is it because of him, I won't even be able to eat?" I can't. ”

Hearing that the coach said this, and Mr. Ning as an example, the guards came to the table one after another and ate and drank.

Walking out of Wanghai Tower, seeing that Yang Chengying didn't come out, Zhu Chunchen was a little depressed.

He got into the sedan chair and waited for a while, but he still didn't see Yang Chengying come down, and whispered to Ming Yan: "Go and inquire, what Yang Chengying is doing in the restaurant." ”

"Got it, the minion is going."

Ming Yan ran into the restaurant quickly, and as soon as he reached the staircase, he heard the sound of eating and drinking from the second floor, and he understood everything.

He walked back quickly and whispered to Zhu Chunchen: "Master, the little one heard the sound of eating and drinking downstairs, and eighty percent of them stayed to eat." ”

"What?" Zhu Chunchen's face changed, "It's really unreasonable, to treat Lord Ben like this." ”

"What's next?"

"Don't wait, go find Gonggong Ji and Master Huo." Zhu Chunchen lowered the curtains.

Ming Yan asked the sedan chair man to lift the sedan chair and went straight to Ji Yong's house.

According to the arrangement, Zhu Chunchen was invited to a banquet in Wanghailou, and then invited him to rest at the pavilion.

Wanghailou is a private banquet and a reception banquet.

In the evening, Yang Chengying held a banquet in the General Military Mansion, invited Ji Yong and Huo Weihua, and Luo Sanjie waited until a certain level and the generals of the imperial court attended and held a public banquet.

As a result, because the private banquet was unpleasant, Zhu Chunchen left his seat angrily, and Yang Chengying did not chase him, resulting in the failure of the subsequent things.

Zhu Chunchen is not stupid, he had already inquired about Ji Yong's place from Wan Hongzuo, so he sent someone to ask for directions and went straight to Ji Yong's mansion.

He explained the situation of the banquet to Ji Yong.

Huo Weihua is also there.

After listening, Huo Weihua said: "Grandpa Zhu, Yang Chengying is a high-flying person, and no one dares to provoke him." We've had a lot of hardships when we first arrived, and this is just the beginning. ”

Although he had no choice but to accept his fate, it did not prevent him from giving Yang Chengying eye medicine in private.

Zhu Chunchen was angry: "How can this be reasonable, isn't this my Ming world, he is so presumptuous." ”

Knowing that Zhu Chunchen was a close minister of the emperor, Ji Yong also took the opportunity to add to the fire: "Li'er is this Li'er, and he can't stand Yang Chengying has soldiers in his hands, and His Majesty protects him." Alas! We're here, it's tough. ”

"As a prison soldier, the two of you sigh like this?"

Zhu Chunchen is not a pure fool, seeing the two of them so angry, he became cautious.

Huo Weihua realized the problem and said with a smile: "Grandpa Ji and I didn't sigh, we just listened to Grandpa Zhu's words and occasionally felt something." ”

Ji Yong is also a human spirit, and he hurriedly said: "What Lord Huo said is exactly what I want to say." Grandpa Zhu, if you feel it yourself, you will know whether our words are right or not. ”

Zhu Chunchen had already felt it.

He had never been so angry, and he had never met such an unruly person.

Yes! If you are unkind and blame me for being unjust, since you refuse to give money, then don't blame me for not giving me a marriage edict, we will spend it.

Thinking of this, Zhu Chunchen felt a little more comfortable.

He stayed here until the evening, until a public feast was held.

Ji Yong, Zhu Chunchen and Huo Weihua attended the banquet.

"Lord Ben is in accordance with the emperor's order, come to Jinzhou Town to give marriage, tonight's banquet is a public banquet, everyone does not have to be formal, you can drink heartily."

After saying some polite words, Zhu Chunchen should invite the standing person to take a seat.

According to the rules, Zhu Chunchen represents that the court can sit first at this time.

After Zhu Chunchen sat down, Ji Yong and Huo Weihua were invited to take their seats in turn, and finally Yang Chengying.

Others are not eligible to be seated.

Unexpectedly, after Zhu Chunchen invited Ji Yong and Huo Weihua to take a seat, he directly ignored Yang Chengying, but directly faced the generals of Jinzhou Town: "Everyone, please take a seat." ”

Jinzhou Town's generals, from Luo Sanjie to Qianzong, stood still, not giving any face.

Zhu Chunchen was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at Yang Chengying.

I saw that Yang Chengying stood up straight and did not sit down.

The atmosphere of the banquet became dull.
