Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 1090 Dragon Clan
Ao Zang signed a note and handed it to someone else. The person looked like an ordinary person and behaved normally. But Shangluo could sense that there was a different power flowing in his body that was different from that of a Qigong practitioner. This person was also a dragon.

"Okay, I've dispatched a Crab General. Lord Shang Tian, ​​please have your meal here first. The Crab General is on the way."

"By the way, King Ao Zang, didn't you make the phone call? Why did you send a warrant?"

"I just called someone to get the warrant."

"Then why don't you just call and ask Crab General to come over?"

Ao Zang shook his head: "This is an extraordinary period. Otherwise, Lord Shang Tian, ​​why do you think I must lock Xiao Yi up? There are many people in the Dragon Palace who are willing to listen to her."

"So she's so popular? But when I look at her in person, she doesn't seem to be alert to the things around her at all. She doesn't look like someone who can win people's hearts."

"As long as she is the son of the dragon, she will definitely attract attention like a magnet. No matter what her personality is, it will only be a reason to support her. If she is useful, she is smart, if she is not useful, she is pure. The emperors of ancient and modern times are cautious in appointing a crown prince, and our small court in the East China Sea is the same. So I have to be vigilant. What's more, she didn't do anything to stir up the East China Sea. What if she really did something? I'm not ready to abdicate and let the wise take over."

"That's true."

What Shangluo knows now is that in the "Urashima Taro" incident that led to an all-out war between Ryugu and Xufu, Otohime did everything that was completely unfair to Ryugu. She just invited Urashima Taro to a meal as Ryugu's host, and then kept him in Ryugu as requested by Ryugu and did not let him leave - Otohime only did these things.

As for the later part, Ryugu was going to let Urashima Taro take the box back to explode Xu Fu's formation, but the plan was exposed by the turtle. That was done by Kame-hime. Shangluo had no idea what happened between the turtle and Urashima Taro. He didn't even know who Urashima Taro was. He had only heard the story once.

He only knew that the crime for which Yiji was imprisoned in this incident was, at most, "negligence" or "misuse of personnel", because she herself was not involved in it, and she probably knew not much more about the matter than Shangluo, at most she had met him once at the dinner table when she hosted a dinner party.

This matter could be a big deal or a small one. He was inclined to think that Ao Zang's decision this time was "protective detention", because he had imprisoned Yi Ji in the Imperial Prison, which was completely out of the control of the Dragon Palace, and actually handed it over to Shangluo for management.

In addition, since Ao Zang offered the gift to her voluntarily, Shangluo, who had no grudge against her, had no need to harm Yiji.

[And it’s really big, right? ]

"what are you talking about"

[Ahaha, do I need to tell you that? I can’t even wear clothes. ]

"First, you need to understand the physiological structure of dragons. Are you sure that this part of the chest has the same function as the human part?"

[What does it matter if there are physiological differences? Your blood pressure rises when you see a robot! Aren’t robots and humans even more different?]

"Tsk, I won't argue with you."

[So since they've asked you to do something, then if conditions permit, we should do it as thoroughly as possible. Miss Otohime is just sitting there doing nothing in the Imperial Prison anyway, why not give her some fun, like letting her surf the Internet or something.]

"That's not difficult. However, I have other plans. King Ao Zang is right. Letting her contact the outside world at this time may attract unnecessary attention. So, I will arrange an intranet for her to play with later."

[Intranet?]

"We'll talk about it later. I'm not good at practicing martial arts, but I still have some ideas for entertaining people. I'm the best at getting everyone to play together."

Seeing Shang Luo's expression change slightly, Ao Zang, who had no ability to read minds, knew that the matter was settled. He bowed slightly and said, "Shang Tianjun, please honor me with a meal at Dong Hai's. If you have nothing else to do, please stay so that I can do this favor more thoroughly."

"Of course. Now that we are all here, it would be nice to have a meal." Shangluo looked at the others, "Is everyone free today?"

Everyone nodded, indicating that they had no objection.

"I have no objection." Zheng Shijie also nodded, "But, King Ao Zang, what are we eating today?"

"It must be something that won't go wrong. Dong Hai has done too many wrong things recently, so of course he needs some moderate, peaceful, and stable food to ease the tension."

"Ah, that's the rule, right?"

"Yes, it's a regular practice."

Shangluo was surprised and asked, "What is the rule?"

The "regular" came up.

The first thing served was a cup of Longjing tea, followed by "four dried fruits" such as peach kernels and ginkgo nuts, "four fresh fruits" such as crabapple and peaches, and "four snacks" such as milk pastry and coconut cheese.

A large number of small plates were placed in front of Shangluo. Each plate had a different pattern. For example, the plate for peaches was a celadon plate, with emerald green and pink. The plate for crabapples was a white porcelain plate, with peach kernels and other dried fruits placed in the flower plates.

And finally, there was a hot towel for the autumn and winter season. The towel was neither hot nor cold, so he wiped his hands and then the meal could begin.

"What is this?" It was the first time Shangluo saw a table full of snacks before dinner. He still remembered the snacks he had with tea in the afternoon, which were just a few small plates. He didn't expect that a large table of snacks would be served all of a sudden.

"This is the standard bird's nest and abalone banquet." Zheng Shijie replied, "This is the safest one."

"Wow!" Han Xingzhi beside him opened his mouth wide, "Is this the bird's nest and shark's fin banquet? I didn't expect that I could actually eat it. My dad only ate it once. It turns out that hanging out with big brother is a blessing. There are delicious foods to eat when you go out."

Ao Zang happened to be away, so Shangluo asked him casually: "What's next?"

"How would I know? This is too high-end. Even my dad only ate it once. How would I know? Isn't the national surname right next to it?"

"Ahem." Zheng Shijie coughed, "It's true that the class is not over yet."

"How many dishes are there in total?"

"King Ao Zang will definitely give you the best, but he also said that he wanted it to be 'modest', so there will probably be only 49 dishes - which is already very few. There are also 81 dishes, but I think 81 dishes is a bit too extravagant. Usually when I invite people to a bird's nest and abalone banquet, it is usually 36 or 49 dishes. 49 dishes is already very solemn, even the elders don't eat it often."

"49 dishes? How can we eat so many?"
