As a result, Lu Fengyu became even more devoted to the King of Xiangyang, and the King of Xiangyang also regarded him as a reliance, and often sighed to him in private, saying that once he became a great treasure in the future, Lu Fengyu would be the head of the cabinet and the minister of the official department. If he is to be knighted, in short, this big cake will soon be bigger than Hangzhou City in the future, and in the entire palace, King Xiangyang trusts Lu Fengyu the most, which even Liu Qiang can't compare to.
But when he saw the snacks on the table at this time, Lu Fengyu felt that they were tasteless, so he frowned and said: "Eat food is all about having a good color, fragrance, taste, and these snacks look dirty, not to mention the taste. How can it arouse people's appetite? The cooks in the prince's mansion are only at this level."
The King of Xiangyang laughed and said: "Your mouth is becoming more and more picky. Forget it, don't talk about it, do you like to eat or not. I heard that you have been walking around Mingyu Bieyuan these days, and you even How about slaughtering the Western Region wolfhounds that this king gave you and sending them there? Could it be that you have discovered something? "
"No." Mentioning this, Lu Fengyu gritted his teeth in depression, so he told the story again, only to hear the King of Xiangyang dumbfounded, and he slapped the table for a long time, and said bitterly: "Aren't you just messing around? If you have some snacks, I will slaughter all the dogs that this king gave you, and let outsiders know, what will you say? You are too unscrupulous."
"I've always had such an unscrupulous temper, and my lord doesn't know about it." Lu Fengyu rolled his eyes, he couldn't stand his words in front of anyone, but the king of Xiangyang would like him, and felt that this was his awe-inspiring character Expressed, because of helplessness, he said: "Mr. has a free and unrestrained temperament. This king knows, but now you are no longer wandering in the rivers and lakes alone, you are the chief history of the palace. You should think twice before doing things."
Lu Fengyu was silent, and it took a while before he said sullenly: "I understand, this incident is indeed too much, don't worry, my lord, I will not repeat the same mistakes in the future."
"That's about the same." King Xiangyang nodded, took a sip of tea from his teacup, "I knew it, you still know how to measure the depth. Otherwise, we can't be a pair of confidants."
"Yes, next time I must think carefully. Even hunters know that if they don't see a rabbit, they won't scatter eagles. I was so stupid that I killed the dog without seeing anything. I'm so stupid." Lu Fengyu clenched his fists viciously. self-criticism.
King Xiangyang: ... It seems that the depth and depth I mentioned didn't refer to this matter
"My lord, do you still have the vicious dogs from the Western Regions?" Lu Fengyu raised his head and looked at King Xiangyang: "If there are any, please give some more to the lower officials."
"What are you doing?" A bad premonition rose in King Xiangyang's heart. But Lu Fengyu said murderously: "Didn't that woman hate to see a dead dog? I just wanted to let her see it, in front of her face. I skinned the dog alive and suffered all kinds of torture..."
"Shut up." The King of Xiangyang raised his eyebrows in anger, "Did you just say what I said in vain? If you dare to attack those wolfhounds of the King, the King will kill you alive." Skinned." He was really pissed off, this confidant was even more willful than a child. How can this be changed for him.
"My lord, you always say that you want me to be your lifelong confidant. Could it be that my lifelong confidant is not as good as some of your wolf dogs?" Lu Fengyu looked at Xiangyang King aggrievedly, but saw Xiangyang King waved his hand and said: "You don't come here This one. I don’t like it. You are indeed much more important than wolf dogs, but I can’t just watch my good dogs being skinned by you like this. Go find another dog. Since that cook doesn't want cats and dogs to suffer, you can find other dogs to kill in front of her, and the effect will be the same."
"That's a good idea, my lord is wise." Lu Fengyu stood up excitedly: "Your Majesty, let's make arrangements."
King Xiangyang stared blankly at the number one confidant, lifted his foot up happily, and left until Lu Fengyu had reached the door. Then he realized that calling the other party over was not to discuss how to "conquer" the cook.
"Come back, you come back to me, you haven't talked about the business yet." Xiangyang King yelled angrily, and for the first time doubted his own vision of seeing people: Can such a foodie help himself to win the world? Well, other people eat as much as their life, but he can give up his life just to eat.
"Oh oh oh!" Lu Fengyu also came back to his senses and patted his forehead. He was also helpless with his temper of "getting complacent when he hears about food", so he quickly turned around and sat down again: "My lord summoned the next official this time, What's the matter?"
"If I remember correctly, the lady of the Marquis of Anping seems to be very good at cooking, right?" King Xiangyang tapped his fingers on the table and said in a deep voice, looking at Lu Fengyu, the meaning in his eyes was obvious: "You understand. "
Of course Lu Fengyu understood very well. After thinking about it for a while, he began to feel pain. He really couldn't accept the setting that the cook Wang was the wife of the Anping Marquis Mansion. However, this is a matter of life or death after all. He didn't dare to deceive himself, because after serious thinking for a while, he said seriously: "The prince's confusion is also the suspicion of the lower officials. So I went to Mingyu Bieyuan again today. I have a tentative heart. It's just... There are two points that make the lower official think that the possibility of this is very small."
"Oh? Let's hear it." The King of Xiangyang became interested. Ever since Liu Qiang made such a big fuss in the capital but failed to return, the King of Xiangyang has taken care of Duan Tingxuan and that tough dog-slaying gang in his heart. The wife of the eldest son had a shadow, so when he heard that there was a cook in Yubieyuan who could make Lu Fengyu full of praise, he immediately became suspicious.
"First: Although the lower officials have repeatedly warned the prince not to trust Su Donglou, after so many days of investigation, it has not been found that this person has anything to do with the forces in Beijing. Although Donglou is not an unscrupulous and ruthless person, his ambition of greed for power is real, so it is not difficult to explain why he took refuge in the prince. So unless he himself is a member of the court, otherwise even if the husband and wife subdued Jiangnan didn't even dare to go to Mingyu Bieyuan. This is tantamount to picking millet out of the fire. Once Su Donglou becomes suspicious of them, he can easily kill them without any reason. After all, the six southern provinces Ming Yulou covers the sky with only one hand. I think that Anping Hou Shizi might not dare to take such a big risk."
King Xiangyang nodded slowly, and said in a deep voice: "You are right. Although I have listened to you and have been unwilling to trust Donglou wholeheartedly, so far, the things he has done for me have been very beautiful. It's done, so even if he's not the king's person, he can't take refuge in the court, otherwise Duke Ping wouldn't have ended up like that."
