Chapter 224: Weird
A hint of surprise flashed on the face of the big shopkeeper, and he hurriedly nodded and said: "The eldest prince clearly sees that it is indeed this Li Gongzi who has taken over our Yunhe Tower, and one package is a whole week." ”
Huang Qi was also slightly stunned when he heard this.
Yunhelou covers a vast area, and the interior and exterior decoration are extremely luxurious, if it were not for the fact that it has only been established for a few years, there is not enough time to spread the word of mouth thoroughly, forming a real heritage, it has long been the first restaurant in Haizhou.
Rao is so, people who come in and out here every day are gushing, and all of them have extraordinary identities, either rich or expensive, like Du Lao, who has been famous for many years, are reluctant to pay for a meal here, which shows the high consumption.
Therefore, to charter the Yunhe Tower for seven full days, the money spent on this is really not something that ordinary sons of the family can afford, and it is no wonder that the big shopkeeper is so concerned about this Li Gongzi.
"Since it's a distinguished guest, then you should go out and entertain first. ”
Huang Qi waved his hand and said softly.
The big shopkeeper nodded, bowed slightly and said, "Those two sons, the old man will retire first." ”
After the salute, the big shopkeeper walked to the door, but as soon as he opened the closed door, a young man's voice came from outside: "Shopkeeper Zhang, this son has been looking for you for a long time." ”
The shopkeeper's surname is Zhang, and his full name is Zhang Wanfu.
"Ouch, Li Gongzi, why did you come up in person, you really missed the distance, you missed the distance. ”
Zhang Wanfu looked at Li Gongzi who came over in a hurry with a few guards, and then quickly greeted him with a smile on his face, but secretly glared at the restaurant guy who was following Li Gongzi, and the guy was stared at so much that his neck shrunk, and his heart was full of grievances.
This boy can't wait, he insists on coming up, can he still be stopped by an errand servant?
That Li Gongzi stopped after seeing Zhang Wanfu, first panting slightly, there are five floors in Yunhe Tower, among which the Tianzi private rooms are all on the third floor in the middle, generally these sons of the family are weak, and suddenly climb to the third floor, it is normal for this kind of panting.
"My son is very busy today, I really don't have the spare time to wait slowly below, if I don't come up in person, I don't know what year and month I can see your big shopkeeper. Li Gongzi said with some dissatisfaction.
"What is Li Gongzi talking about......" Zhang Wanfu was about to apologize when Huang Qi's gentle voice came out of the room behind him.
"Since this boy has come, please invite him to come in and sit down for a while, and rest for a while. ”
After hearing Huang Qi's voice, Li Gongzi frowned slightly, he also knew the Tianzi No. 1 box in Yunhe Tower, but Haizhou was qualified to enter the Tianzi No. 1 person, he was basically familiar with it, and Huang Qi's voice was the first time he heard it.
"Who is this inside?" asked Zhang Wanfu curiously.
Zhang Wanfu turned away and bowed slightly, stretched out a hand to make a respectful gesture, and said with a smile: "Inside are the two sons of my host's family, and the one who just spoke to invite you is the eldest son, Li Gongzi, please." ”
The owner of the Cloud Crane Tower?
Li Gongzi raised his eyebrows, although he has only been in Haizhou for two years, he is also very familiar with Yunhe Tower, because this building may not be the most famous restaurant in Haizhou, but it is definitely the most luxurious and comfortable restaurant in Haizhou.
What's even more rare is that the background of Yunhelou is not ordinarily powerful, he has been in Haizhou for so long, and he has almost never heard of a gentleman who dares to fight in Yunhelou, not even a scoundrel who makes trouble.
From these two items, it can be inferred that the owner of Yunhe Tower is definitely not an ordinary rich and noble family, although no matter how rich and noble it is now, it is like a passing cloud for him, but since it is in front of him, he might as well see it.
"Since the son is invited, then please ask the shopkeeper to lead the way for me. Li Gongzi tidied up his meter a little and said to Zhang Wanfu.
followed Zhang Wanfu into the door, Li Gongzi saw Huang Qi sitting by the window drinking tea at a glance, it was really Huang Qi's temperament that was too outstanding, and it was very attractive to people's attention.
"In Xia Huang Qi, Li Gongzi, please sit down. Huang Qi put down the teacup in his hand, pointed to the soft seat by the wall on the side, and said kindly to Li Gongzi.
As the top box of Yunhe Tower, it is naturally impossible to have only a table and a few dining chairs, and there are also some props for entertainment and play, and the soft seat is for guests to rest.
"Under Plum Peak. Li Zifeng clasped his fists and saluted, then walked to the side and sat down.
Under Huang Qi's signal, the maid on the side made a cup of warm tea and brought it to Li Zifeng, Li Zifeng seemed to be very thirsty, and after thanking Huang Qi, he raised his head and drank it directly.
Huang Qi's face was silent, but there was a trace of doubt in the depths of his eyes.
The Li Zifeng in front of him brought him a very strange feeling.
The specific strange thing is that he is so healthy.
Huang Qi deduced from his heartbeat, breathing rate, various sounds coming from his internal organs, and even the state of the skin on his body surface that almost all of this person was in the most perfect state, and he didn't have any chronic diseases that ordinary people should have.
In addition to newborn babies, even healthy people will have some hidden injuries on their bodies, unless they practice martial arts to the innate realm, they can remove the hidden dangers of impurities.
If Li Zifeng is an innate martial artist, Huang Qi can still understand it, but Li Zifeng is completely an ordinary person, and he does not have the vigorous qi and blood of a martial artist at all, you must know that even if he is a martial artist who has just entered the acquired realm, his qi and blood are much more vigorous than ordinary people.
When Li Zifeng was outside the door just now, Huang Qi felt his specialness, so he asked Zhang Wanfu to invite him in.
But after looking at it like this a few times, the doubts in Huang Qi's heart became even greater.
After Li Zifeng finished drinking tea, Huang Qi exchanged a few words with him, but Li Zifeng seemed to be in a hurry, and after only two or three sentences, he said no to Huang Qi and found Zhang Wanfu.
"Shopkeeper Zhang, you wait and explain to those guards, among the guests who come tonight, if someone shows a jade pendant similar to my style, then directly invite him to go to the top attic, and the rest of the people can only stay on the first to third floors, and they can't be allowed to go up." ”
Li Zifeng pulled out a red rope from his chest, and a small pendant the size of a finger was hanging from the red rope.
"No problem, such a trivial matter, Li Gongzi arranged for someone to explain it, why bother to come in person?" Zhang Wanfu took a closer look at the style of the pendant and remembered it in his heart, and then agreed.
The security order and other work of the evening poetry meeting are also taken care of by Yunhe Tower, and it is not simply a place to charter.
Li Zifeng smiled and didn't explain anything, he turned his head to Huang Qi and said, "Huang Gongzi, I'll leave first, and we'll see you in the evening." ”
As soon as they were talking, Li Zifeng had already invited Huang Qi to participate in the evening poetry meeting, and it happened that Huang Qi had some interest in him, so he simply agreed.
Li Gongzi walked slowly. Huang Qi nodded.
Li Zifeng had just turned around and was about to leave, and as soon as he walked out of the door, he heard a slightly immature voice in the room behind him: "Big brother, the jade pendant that Li Gongzi brought is black, is it black jade?
His body froze in the doorway.
"There's a lot of stuff you've never seen. Huang Qi replied casually, his eyes falling on Li Zifeng, who suddenly stopped at the door.
Something wrong with that black pendant?
"Li Gongzi, do you have anything else?" Zhang Wanfu, who was following Li Zifeng to see off the guests, saw him stop suddenly, and asked suspiciously.
"It's fine. Li Zifeng shook his head, turned his head and took a deep look at the door behind him, and then strode away.
Huang Qi was drinking tea, still thinking about the black pendant in his mind, in his perception, the pendant was clearly an ordinary object, and he didn't find anything special.
At this time, Hu Dali's voice suddenly sounded: "What black jade? Then what Li Gongzi took out was obviously an ordinary yellow jade pendant, which was clearly yellow." ”
"Yellow?" Huang Qi looked at Hu Dali suspiciously.
Hu Dali nodded and said, "Yes, eldest prince, is there any problem?"
Huang Qi didn't say anything, but turned his head to look at Du Lao and asked, "Du Lao, was the jade pendant of Li Gongzi yellow just now?"
With the help of Huang Qi, Du Lao has now cultivated some internal strength, so although he is quite old, he still has no problems with his eyesight.
"Back to the eldest prince, although the old man has only glanced at it, it can be guaranteed that it is indeed yellow. After all, Du Lao has a lot of experience, and from the reactions of several people, he can already see that there seems to be something wrong with the jade pendant, so he said very solemnly.
"Impossible!" Huang Zhen was unconvinced, he could see clearly, the jade pendant was clearly jet black.
Huang Qi didn't speak, his face was in a pensive state.
In his eyes, the jade pendant is also black, not the yellow that Du Lao and Hu Dali said at all, the two of them will never lie to themselves, so now the problem arises on the jade pendant.
plus Li Zifeng's reaction when he heard the color of the jade pendant just now......
"Shopkeeper Zhang is back. Seeing that Shopkeeper Zhang, who had sent Li Zifeng back, returned to the room, Huang Zhen immediately jumped up, ran to his side, grabbed the hem of his clothes and asked, "Shopkeeper Zhang, you just looked the most carefully, what color did you say that Li Gongzi's jade pendant was?"
Zhang Wanfu looked at the hem of his silk clothes that was grabbed by Huang Zhen's two greasy and dirty hands, and his face suddenly twitched, this is still a new dress that he knew that the eldest prince was coming here today, and he specially bought a new dress yesterday, and he just put it on today......
"Back to the little boy, the jade pendant of Li Gongzi is made of topaz, which is yellow. He said helplessly.
Huang Zhen was dumbfounded.
Yellow again.
Sure enough, only a certain group of people can see it? Huang Qi was thoughtful and became interested in the pendant.
Now that I think about it, the abnormality on Li Gongzi's body must also be related to the pendant.
......
......
At night, the whole city of Haizhou is brightly lit, and there are few people on the street in the past, but today it is crowded with people, and it is very lively.
Red lanterns hang every ten paces on both sides of the street, and vendors shout and sell in the government-arranged area, and the smell of various snacks wafts through the street, luring the young children.
"It's so lively. Huang Zhen lay on the railing on the third floor of the Yunhe Tower, looked at the crowd surging below and exclaimed in surprise: "It's almost comparable to the Lantern Festival in the same state capital, the Mid-Autumn Festival and other big festivals." ”
Du Lao said with a smile on the side: "Because the Yunhe Tower is located on the main road leading to the Niangniang Temple, this whole street is the venue for the temple fair, so it is so lively, but this place is not bad, if you go to the end along this street, to the vicinity of the Niangniang Temple, it is really lively." ”
Huang Zhen's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he pulled Du Lao to the side and asked questions, and the old and the young were lying on the railing.
Huang Qi sat at the small table on the side, casually looking at the scene in the hall below.
At this moment, there have been many people in the Yunhe Tower, and there are still guests entering, and at a glance, there are some children of the family, and more are those young people dressed as scholars.
It seems that in addition to inviting the sons of various families in Haizhou, Li Zifeng also invited a large number of scholars.
After these invited people came to the Cloud Crane Tower, they were automatically divided into high and low, among which the most noble people, as soon as they arrived, they went up to the third floor in the various flattery of everyone on the first floor, forming a small circle of more than a dozen people, while the second floor was slightly inferior, and the hall on the first floor was obviously the lowest status.
Those scholars were basically in the hall on the first floor, and only a few of them seemed to be invited to the second and third floors because of their outstanding talents and reputations.
Among them, the poetry meeting is mainly held in the hall on the first floor.
On the third floor, those people were extremely familiar with each other, and they gathered everywhere in twos and threes to chat about topics, Huang Qi sat alone on this small balcony drinking tea, and no one came to disturb him for a while, making him happy.
"Li Gongzi is here. I don't know who shouted first, and suddenly everyone below rushed to the gate, shouting Li Gongzi enthusiastically.
Huang Qi looked at this scene and felt quite interesting in his heart.
The popularity of this Li Zifeng seems to be even better than that prefect just now.
