Traitor Summoning System [Infrastructure]

The artisans sent the newly forged king's armor.

There are long white feathers on the helmet, and a snow-white cape on the shoulders.The body of the armor is dark ocean green, dotted with black patterns, and the reflection of the candlelight on the armor is like swaying branches and thorns in the forest.When the craftsman held up the armor with both hands and presented it, the light shone on the armor, making the armor look like a rare treasure.

Leonard put on the armor one by one under the service of the servant, and when he was putting on the last piece, the servant suddenly took out a knife from his arms and stabbed Leonard in the chest.

The sudden incident stunned the people serving beside him.

I saw Lu Bu stepped forward and grabbed the servant's hand, and folded it upwards forcefully. The sound of bones breaking was very clear, followed by the other party's screams.

"Your courage is as loud as your screams." Lu Bu snorted lightly, then turned to Leonard, "Your Majesty, what should we do next?"

Leonard said without blinking his eyes, "There is one last piece of armor that hasn't been put on yet."

The servant next to him bent down even deeper. After Leonard was assassinated, he calmly ordered his subordinates to continue to wear armor. This behavior was deeply reflected in their minds. They couldn't help but think, ah, this is the emperor's demeanor.

[Successful display of imperial demeanor, plus 50 destiny points. 】

Well, it's not in vain that he just insisted on finishing this sentence.

It really scared me to death... Leonard patted his chest, thinking.

Oh, and a relieved look is inappropriate at this point.So Leonard tapped the armor on his chest with his knuckles again, and after hearing the thumping sound of the armor, he said seriously: "The material of the armor looks good."

Lu Bu suppressed a smile and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Lu Bu naturally saw Leonard's mental activities.

After putting on the armor, Leonard turned around and said, "How is it?"

"Majestic," Lu Bu said, and then he opened his mouth and closed it again.

"Okay, I know you want me to practice martial arts well." Leonard said, "I've been busy usurping the throne recently. From tomorrow onwards, arrange martial arts practice again."

Leonard's words of "busy usurping the throne" scared the servants next to him half to death, and they continued to hang their heads in postures that would definitely cause cervical spondylosis.

"Let's go, follow me to see the army in the imperial city." Leonard said.

Lu Bu picked up the half-dead assassin from the ground and asked, "What should we do about this?"

"Leave it to me. He is very good at this." Leonard said casually.

Why did the servant of the palace assassinate him, why did the servant have such a good dagger, why did this servant wear armor for him, these are all questions.

And Wei Zhongxian is best at digging out these problems one by one.

Presumably, there will be another bloodbath in the palace.

By the way, Leonard understands that although the usurpation of the throne seems to be very smooth, it will definitely cause a lot of hatred.So Leonard took Lu Bu everywhere during this period of time, and ate and lived with Lu Bu to prevent problems before they happened.

Here Leonard and Lu Bu inspected the army of the imperial city together. The overall quality of the army in the imperial city is not bad. Leonard and Lu Bu talked and laughed all the way. Finally, Leonard announced to improve the army's food, and eat meat every day. , this simple policy immediately won him a lot of sincere support.

"Your Majesty, the Duke of Green has arrived." His subordinates reported, "There is also the old Duke."

"Ah, elder brother and father are here." Leonard said with a smile, "Fengxian, come with me to see father and elder brother."

Lu Bu: "Ah, yes."

I always feel that this sentence sounds weird, like the tone of bringing a daughter-in-law to meet the parents.

Leonard returned to the palace from the outer city, and immediately saw many people along the way being dragged out by the palace guards, crying and screaming.

"What's going on?" Leonard asked one of the guards.

"Your Majesty." The guard bowed first and said, "This is an order from the Prime Minister."

"I didn't order it? Oh, yes, it's Wanwu." Leonard didn't turn his head around for a while. After all, he had been the Prime Minister for too long, so he subconsciously thought he was talking about himself.

Leonard looked over, and there were still many people being escorted from a distance. It seemed that this operation dragged out a lot of people, but there were too many people, it shouldn't be.Leonard was going to tell Wei Zhongxian not to be too bloodthirsty.

Leonard walked to the gate of the palace, called a servant, and asked, "Are the old Duke and Duke Green inside?"

"Yes, Your Majesty." The servant saluted.

"My dad... well, I mean, what does the old Duke Green look like?" Leonard asked.

"Old Duke Green's face is a bit gloomy," the servant replied.

Leonard's heart skipped a beat.

Oops, usurping the throne is too urgent, maybe my father is angry.

Such a hasty usurpation of the throne has left many hidden dangers, and the private infamy alone is enough.

But he couldn't explain that he did it to revive Cai Lun.

Leonard scratched his head, then scratched his head again.

Although he is the emperor now, he is still afraid of his father's criticism.

Leonard had an idea: "Order the kitchen to arrange the dinner in advance." Then he called another servant: "Invite the old duke to the dining room."

"Yes, Your Majesty." The servant replied.

……

The dinner is very rich, and an important ingredient is lotus root.

People here don't eat lotus root, so the dishes prepared by Leonard are very fresh to his father and eldest brother.

As for where the lotus root came from...

Some nobles would use lotus flowers to decorate their courtyards. After visiting their courtyards, Leonard dug their ponds.

The nobleman who was the first to dig the pond was frightened to death. He even suspected that Leonard thought the scenery here was good, suitable for killing some people to bury in it, and the lotus here would bloom more colorfully in the coming year (...).

It's not to blame for the nobleman's imagination, it's because Leonard's reputation is too bad.

Many nobles thought that Leonard was a bloody, cruel and terrifying king. Because Leonard had disposed of too many nobles, those nobles said that Leonard liked watching nobles die the most. The blood of the untouchables did not arouse his interest. It is truly horrific to see noble people shed blood.

This argument is more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people than that everyone is equal. After all, "the blood of the nobles can arouse the king's pleasure more than the blood of the common people." This abnormal view still maintains the nobility of the nobles in essence, so it is widely accepted by the nobles.

After hearing this, Leonard just wanted to twitch the corners of his mouth.

Naturally, there are not many lotus roots in the noble pond, so next year they will be concentrated and artificially cultivated.

Lotus root can be eaten raw or cooked. In addition to eating it, its medicinal value is quite high.The whiskers and fruits of the lotus are good things, so they are of great cultivation value.

Lotus root has a long history in China. In the "Book of Songs", there is a famous sentence "There are Fusu in the mountains, and lotus in Xi'an". Cai Lun must have a lot of experience in planting lotus.After Leonard thought of this, he wanted Cai Lun to be resurrected as soon as possible.

The first thing Leonard prepared for his father Horace and his elder brother Graham was the famous lotus root ribs soup, which is a traditional dish in Hubei cuisine.The ribs come from the Rongchang pig rewarded by the system. Rongchang pig is a famous pig in China and ranks among the eight best breeding pigs in the world.It has strong adaptability and a high lean meat percentage, but not as high as Jinhua pig, which is so thin that it is only suitable for making ham, while Rongchang pig is most suitable for eating directly.

The ribs themselves are the most delicious part of the pig, and the ribs from Rongchang pigs are extremely tender and fragrant.Lotus root pork ribs soup, the fresh aroma of lotus root, mixed with the rich and beautiful pork ribs meat, bursts out a strong taste on the tip of the tongue.

When his father Horace and his eldest brother Graham came in, Leonard had just filled the pork ribs and lotus root soup. His father Horace raised his eyebrows and was about to speak. Leonard smiled first and said, "Father, brother, come and taste my soup." Stewed lotus root ribs soup."

In fact, strictly speaking, Leonard directed the chef to do it, but since in ancient times, the emperor planted trees in a way that other people planted them and he patted the soil, then Leonard has been directing for a long time, and he can be regarded as him directly. done.

Hearing what Leonard said, Father Horace's expression improved a bit.

After all, he is now the emperor of the empire, and he took the initiative to cook for you and serve you food, which shows that he still recognizes him as his father.

The eldest brother Graham looked at his father Horace, then at the steaming pork rib soup, and remained silent.

Hollus glanced at Graham and found that Graham was looking at rib soup.So Hollus snorted again, and sat down first to save face, and prepared to make trouble later.

Seeing his father sit down, Graham immediately sat down too.

"This is lotus root, which is often eaten in the east. It comes from the lotus flower." Leonard picked up the lotus root with chopsticks and said, "The lotus root itself is slightly sweet and can be used as medicine or ground into lotus root powder. It clears away heat and appetizers, and is also very nourishing. I will have it next year." Plant a large number of lotus and start the lotus industry."

Graham said: "Well... I have some impressions of lotus. My mother raised a lot of lotus." When I went back, I dug out the lotus root and ate it. I don't really want to eat lotus root. I just want to try it. What does Leonard mean by slightly sweet taste.

"Yeah." Leonard nodded, and he didn't know if Cai Lun could be revived next year. If not, should he ask his mother, Clitsins, to plant lotus? For the Rongchang pig, I plan to promote it on a large scale. There is another kind of pig that is suitable for making ham. I asked Eagle Bruce to raise that kind of pig. Now these have been negotiated. In a few years, the quality of the meat we eat will improve. will be greatly improved.”

Hollus took a sip, the fragrant lotus root pork rib soup, rich and fragrant taste, soft and delicious lotus root and meaty pork ribs brought an excellent enjoyment.

The mellow and delicious pork rib soup eased his mood a lot.

Leonard clapped his hands, and the servants brought glutinous rice and lotus root. Glutinous rice and lotus root is a dessert. Glutinous rice is stuffed into the lotus root and topped with honey.The lotus root is soft and glutinous, the rice fragrance is strong, the taste is sweet and delicious, it can clear away heat and promote body fluid, and eliminate irritability.

Leonard introduced: "This is glutinous rice lotus root, a traditional dessert from the East, which means reunion and harmony."

At this time, it is very appropriate to take out this pastry.

Graham looked, and saw the glutinous rice and lotus root shining with a beautiful luster, and the saliva was secreted before entering the mouth.

Next is the pork chops in ginger sauce. The pork chops are still Rongchang pork chops. The side dishes are some crab-flavored mushrooms. The pork chops are tender and delicious, and the taste of the sauce is fully absorbed. material.Pick up the pork chops with a fork, bite down, the delicious gravy splashes out in an instant, and the delicious meat flavor spreads, and then a bite of crab-flavored mushrooms, the taste of the crab-flavored mushrooms weakens the greasy feeling of the pork chops, and the two are tightly in the mouth Intertwined together, the volcano erupted violently without brewing for too long, and the delicious torrent swept everything, and even burned all sanity into ashes.

Leonard said in a timely manner from the side: "Father can also tell from the comparison with the elder brother. Today's dinner basically only has two main courses, one is pork and the other is lotus root." He paused and said: "Just this Two ingredients can make a lot of delicacies, but there are many things to do to promote these dishes. I entertained the nobles with ham at the enthronement dinner, and gave them the order to raise pigs, so... um... ..."

Father Horace was quite speechless: "So, the explanation you gave me is that you are so anxious to become emperor, the purpose is to cultivate and grow various ingredients in various places? Good food?"

Leonard's eyes fluttered: "Although... that, but father, you enjoyed your meal, didn't you?"

Hollus put down his fork helplessly, "You never let me worry when I was a child."

Although this reason is too clumsy, it is not easy to directly refute it face to face while eating such delicious food.

Wouldn't it be embarrassing if you slapped the table and yelled "it's like a child's play", but then sat down and continued to eat.

Seeing Horace like this, Leonard knew that he had been fooled for the time being.

Graham next to him interjected, "Leonard, I mean Your Majesty, what is suitable for breeding in Linye City?"

Hollus: "..."

Why is my mind full of food, one or two will piss me off.

Horace simply lowered his head and ate with his heart, out of sight and out of mind.

……

Well, it's really delicious.
