Hold His Hand

Such things as the emperor holding a banquet are no strangers to the court ministers.

Today's life is quite extravagant, so that his money is always not enough to spend, and he will do everything to make money.

This includes holding a big banquet.

There were not many things to eat at the banquet, but there were quite a lot of gifts received.

This time there was a banquet in the palace, and basically all the dignitaries in the capital were invited. The people from the big families didn’t think much of it, but most of them still felt very honored and took out their best things as gifts. Try to show your face at the banquet.

Even if the power of the emperor is not as good as before, the royal family is still the largest family.

"Your Majesty held a banquet suddenly this time, and I don't know what you want to do."

"I heard that the thief Xie Jin offered some strange food..."

"Tie Zhang has already been executed, but it's a pity that Thief Xie is not slippery, so it's hard to deal with."

"He won't be good for long."

……

Everyone was discussing in private, and some people came to Wang Tingyun's side and asked Wang Tingyun's opinion on Xie Chengze.

The old head of the Wang family did not come due to illness, Wang Tingyun represented the Wang family, he said: "Eunuch Xie is working for the emperor."

Saying this is the same as not saying it.

In fact, everyone knows that the emperor just couldn't control the court and couldn't make them obedient, so he hired a eunuch to suppress them.

They are dissatisfied with this, but if they don't want to tear themselves apart with the emperor, they can only do things according to the rules.

Xie Chengze doesn't do anything against the rules, and they can't do anything about him.

All the officials entered the palace and took their seats.

At this time, a news spread - today, Xie Chengze will bring his man who was raised at home into the palace.

Someone came to Wang Tingyun's side and said in a low voice: "I heard that the First Prince was curious and mentioned this to His Majesty, and His Majesty also became interested, so he asked Xie Chengze to bring him into the palace, saying that he wanted to have a look."

Wang Tingyun said: "I already know."

After Wang Tingyun finished speaking, he didn't say any more, and the people who came to tell Wang Tingyun the gossip were a bit bored.

He still has a lot to say, but Wang Tingyun is too serious.

This person went to other places and talked about it with other people, and the others were obviously very interested in it: "Then Xie Zei has a high-minded look on his face, I never thought that I would like this way."

"He looks good, and he doesn't know what he tastes like."

"The person who was raised by him is really shameless."

"It's embarrassing for us men."

"I heard that the man used to be a yamen servant, so I don't know what he looks like..."

"It should be strong and strong, so that Eunuch Xie can be called a mother."

……

While everyone was discussing, Xie Chengze had already brought Lu Yanzhou into the palace.

Now that she is not young, there are many princes and princesses in the palace.

Among them, there are four princes who have grown up. The eldest prince is very similar to Jinshang, and he is the most favored one among the many princes.

At the beginning, Xie Chengze was full of expectations for these princes, and thought that when the emperor died, they would succeed him.

But he soon realized that these people were all crooked from the root.

At that time, the eldest prince was only fourteen or fifteen years old, and he killed a pregnant woman just because he wanted to see what the fetus looked like in the mother's womb.

This kind of person should go to hell.

But this time, Xie Chengze didn't intend to bring Lu Yanzhou into the palace at all, it was the eldest prince who said something to the emperor, and the emperor asked to bring Lu Yanzhou with him.

"Lu Lang, the situation in the palace is complicated, you must act carefully."

"Don't worry, I will be careful."

Xie Chengze said again: "When I enter the palace, I'm afraid I won't be able to take good care of you..."

"Aze, don't worry, I can handle it." Lu Yanzhou laughed again, and squeezed Xie Chengze's hand.

Xie Chengze has been admonishing and admonishing him all the way, because he is afraid that he will offend people at the banquet, but he is not a reckless person, and he will bear with it when encountering things.

Seeing that Lu Yanzhou wasn't nervous at all, Xie Chengze thought that Lu Yanzhou was always smart and knew what was best for him, so he didn't say any more, and only glanced at Lu Yanzhou's clothes with a little dissatisfaction.

After knowing that he was going to enter the palace, Lu Yanzhou dressed up and put on a new suit. Today's Lu Yanzhou looks much more refined and handsome than his usual disheveled appearance.

Seeing Xie Chengze looking at his clothes, Lu Yanzhou smiled and asked, "How is it? Don't lose your face."

Xie Chengze said: "The fourth son of the capital is not as good as you, Lu Lang."

After boasting, the two of them relaxed a lot and entered the banquet hall together.

As soon as he entered, Xie Chengze changed his demeanor, and returned to the aloof and aloof look that Lu Yanzhou had when he first met him.

Lu Yanzhou also changed his temperament. He was also a scholar in ancient times, and now he looks like a noble son who grew up in a wealthy village.

The original owner did not do physical work when he was a government servant, and he was not as dark as ordinary people.

When he came to the capital, Lu Yanzhou not only ate and drank well, but also wore a windproof hat when he usually rode a horse. His skin became even better, and he looked no rougher than the young master of the big family at all.

The appearance of the two of them immediately attracted everyone's attention.

These people were all curious about the man Xie Chengze raised at home, and when they saw it, they were a little confused.

They investigated and found out that the man Xie Chengze raised was a government servant he had kidnapped from outside.

What does a yamen look like?Everyone thinks that Xie Chengze's man should be a dark and strong man with a fierce face, but in fact... he is a gentle man with a gentle and gentle look.

Those who laughed at Lu Yanzhou before didn't look very good now.

Lu Yanzhou looks much more handsome than them!

There are also some people who are not so gossip, and even feel that what kind of person Xie Chengze likes and what he wants to do has nothing to do with them. When these people see Lu Yanzhou, they only have one thought - so this person looks like this!No wonder Eunuch Xie liked it and kidnapped him back to the capital!

Xie Chengze looked around at the people around him coldly, and brought Lu Yanzhou to the place he had arranged, and asked Lu Yanzhou to sit down.

As for himself, he will serve the emperor later.

"Lu Lang, you wait here. If someone is disrespectful to you, you can find someone to tell our family." Xie Chengze still called Lu Lang, but his voice and demeanor were completely different from when he was alone with Lu Yanzhou. When he said this, He also glanced around at the people around him.

"Brother Xie, don't worry about me, I can handle it." Lu Yanzhou said.

Xie Chengze just left, but he still stayed by Lu Yanzhou's side.

As soon as Xie Chengze left, everyone's eyes focused on Lu Yanzhou.

Being stared at by so many people, Lu Yanzhou was all smiles with a calm demeanor.

If someone looks at him with malicious eyes, he just ignores it. If someone looks at him with probing eyes... Lu Yanzhou raised his wine glass and smiled at the other party.

Facing Lu Yanzhou's smile, Wang Tingyun frowned and pondered.

He knew that the man beside Xie Chengze was the one who cheated his daughter back then.

He hated that person deeply, but he didn't know what that person looked like.

So that person looks like this?Wang Tingyun suddenly understood why his daughter lost her head.

It's a pity that this guy's embroidered pillow is a bag of grass, so it can only be seen on the surface.

Everyone else thought so too.

Although they look down on Xie Chengze and even Lu Yanzhou, but now that Xie Chengze is in power, they are actually unwilling and afraid to confront Xie Chengze, so no one will come up to find fault with Lu Yanzhou.

Someone who wanted to curry favor with Xie Chengze, or simply Xie Chengze's subordinates, went up to talk to Lu Yanzhou.

In the face of these people, Lu Yanzhou responded decently, and these people secretly sighed - Eunuch Xie's taste is really not bad.

Lu Yanzhou and the others came late, and soon everyone came. At this time, the emperor finally brought a few princes and a few concubines who came late.

After talking about some scenes, the banquet officially began.

For this "tofu banquet", the emperor entrusted Xie Chengze to prepare it, and Xie Chengze sought Lu Yanzhou's opinion to draw up the menu.

Fried chicken is junk food in modern times, but in this era of lack of oil and water, it is delicious.

Also very precious!

So the first dish served was fried chicken legs, followed by fried fish, fried pork ribs, croquettes and even many other fried foods.

The amount of each item is not much, just one bite if there are many, and besides these, there is no shortage of soy products such as tofu soup.

Dishes that everyone had never seen before were brought up, and those who had no expectations for the food at the banquet were shocked.

Some people who had eaten in advance regretted filling their stomachs before coming.

The food at this banquet is really delicious, the white jade-like food, let alone what it is made of.

After looking around, Lu Yanzhou knew that their business would not be too bad in the future. As a result, at this moment, the emperor on the dragon chair thought of Lu Yanzhou and asked Lu Yanzhou to go over.

Lu Yanzhou once again came in front of people, attracting everyone's attention.

Everyone felt that the emperor should be a little disgusted with Lu Yanzhou who got involved with Xie Chengze. They never thought that the emperor said to Xie Chengze: "Xiao Xie, you have a good eye, he looks good! Hahahaha!"

The emperor, who was in a good mood, asked Xie Chengze and Lu Yanzhou to have dinner together, so he didn't have to wait on him.

All the ministers: "..." The emperor is still the same as before!

As for Lu Yanzhou and Xie Chengze, the two sat down together, and Lu Yanzhou began to hand Xie Chengze all kinds of food.

Xie Chengze straightened his back and kept paying attention to everything around him, but Lu Yanzhou was different. He only had eyes on Xie Chengze, and from time to time, he would feed Xie Chengze something to eat.

Lu Yanzhou made a decision from the very beginning.In front of people, he had to act as the little boy next to Xie Chengze.

As for the queen...of course it is to make money, make money, make a lot of money!

It is the right way to accumulate grain and slowly become king!

When everyone was far away, they saw Eunuch Xie next to him, a handsome man took care of his food and drink with a smile.

They thought that this Lu Yanzhou might be a shield that Xie Chengze found before, but now they believe that Xie Chengze is really interested in this person.

They were even a little envious of Xie Chengze.

Of course, there are also people who envy Lu Yanzhou - there have always been many people who covet Xie Chengze.
