Father can be an enemy country

Chapter 356 Ignore
At noon that day, the prefect Cao held a banquet in the government office to clean up the dust for several His Royal Highnesses.

In addition to the two local celebrities in Zhenjiang, the prefect of Cao specially invited Lu Zhonghe and Xie Yunzhang to accompany him.

But to the surprise of the two Jiangnan bigwigs, even though the magistrate Cao introduced them grandly, the highnesses didn't respond, and didn't even mean to be perfunctory.

This made Zhifu Cao a little embarrassed, and quickly changed the subject with a smile on his face: "Your Highnesses are coming to Zhenjiang, you must try our crab roe soup buns, look at this bun skin, it can be broken by blowing bombs, as thin as a cicada's wing , there are 33 steps in the process alone. If you dip it in Zhenjiang vinegar, the taste will be like a Buddha's taste!"

"Yeah." The expressions of several His Royal Highnesses finally came alive, especially His Highness King Chu, who poked and poked the buns with his fingers with great interest, and grinned like a mentally handicapped child:

"This skin just won't break, it's amazing..."

Obviously, the interest in crab roe soup dumplings far outweighs the interest in Lu and Xie.

The two Jiangnan bosses were so ashamed that their faces turned red like a monkey's ass.

They sneaked a glance at the sixth child, their eyes were full of resentment... It is understandable that your highness next to him has nothing to do with you and is indifferent, but why does your highness, king of Chu, treat us as insignificant grassroots people?
Didn't you invite us to the Laba Banquet?Aren't you going to talk to me about Shibo Division?How can you belittle us so much?

The two looked at each other again, and Lu Zhonghe gave Xie Yunzhang a calm look.It means that His Royal Highness King Chu is deliberately messing with us.

'Don't worry, I'll definitely talk to you after dinner.At that time, we should do whatever we want without being affected. '

'Um. 'The two exchanged glances.

~~
However, after lunch, the highnesses went straight to the back office to rest.

His Royal Highness the King of Chu was so busy chatting and laughing with his brothers that he didn't even look at Lu Zhonghe and Xie Yunzhang before disappearing into their longing eyes.

Whether Lu Zhonghe and Xie Yunzhang left or stayed, his embarrassing toes could dig out a courtyard.

The two of them waited until Cao Zhifu had settled down several highnesses, then they withdrew from the back office and rushed to meet them.

"Fu Zun, His Royal Highness King Chu..." Lu Zhonghe asked boldly.

"Did you say to summon us?" Xie Yunzhang continued.

Zhifu Cao shook his head, and said with a strange expression: "I'm not going to hide it from you, I was afraid that His Royal Highness would forget things too much, so I asked the two of you again, asking if I would like to meet you first and have a chat. Your Highness... ..."

He was a little speechless after that.

"Fu Zun just say, we can bear it."

"Okay. Your Highness asked, aren't you a sea merchant?" Cao Zhifu glanced at the county magistrate Zhou and said: "This government will deny it for you according to what Lao Zhou said."

"It was you who said no." Zhou Zhixian hurriedly said.

"Yes, it's what we said." Lu Zhonghe nodded, and hurriedly asked, "What did your Highness say?"

"Your Highness said...since it's not a sea merchant, what's there to see? Let the two of them finish their porridge tomorrow, and then... go back to their homes." Zhifu Cao automatically purified the old six's words, the original words were much worse than this up.

"Ah..." Lu Zhonghe and Xie Yunzhang were dumbfounded. "This, Your Highness is too real, isn't it?"

"We are indeed not maritime merchants, but who in the south of the Yangtze River doesn't sell us thin noodles?" Lu Zhonghe couldn't hold back his face. From the Yuan Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty, he had never been so embarrassing.

"I also said this for you." Zhifu Cao said with a wry smile: "But Your Highness said that if he has anything to say, he will directly tell the sea merchants, and there is no need for a middleman to pass the message on."

"This..." The two were dumbfounded for a long while before Xie Yunzhang sighed depressedly: "Oh, Your Highness thinks things too simply."

"Perhaps in the eyes of His Royal Highness, there are no complicated things in this world." Cao Zhifu said perfunctorily, and cupped his hands at the two of them: "Your Majesty is still on business, excuse me."

"Excuse me." Magistrate Zhou also bowed his hands and left with Magistrate Cao.The two of them were left in a mess in the wind...

After a long while, Lu and Xie came out of the government office feeling disappointed.

In fact, the two of them have done their homework this time.What should be said, what can't be said, what can be promised and what can't be promised, all carefully deliberated.Who would have thought that he had prepared eighteen kinds of martial arts, but none of them were useful, and he just came out in such a disgraceful manner...

"It's too condescending to people!" After returning to the garden under the contract, Xie Yunzhang smashed the teacup that Meiji offered.

The maid was so frightened that she knelt down quickly, and the butler stepped forward to clean up.However, Xie Yunzhang was still angry and said: "Hurry up and clean up, I will go back to Hangzhou today!"

"Ah, yes..."

"You step back first." Lu Zhonghe who came with him waved his hand.

The butler looked at his master in embarrassment.But was rebuked by Xie Yunzhang: "Go down, didn't you see that I have something to say to Mr. Pingjiang?"

Everyone quickly filed back.Only then did Xie Yunzhang say to Lu Zhonghe: "Old Lu, you can go together too, the dignified Lu family cannot suffer such humiliation."

"How did that Highness insult us?" Lu Zhonghe emphasized: "He is just ignorant, and ignorant people are not guilty."

"He is pretending to be ignorant, deliberately humiliating us and exalting himself!" Xie Yunzhang said angrily, "Don't look at him being only twelve or thirteen years old, there are a bunch of dog-headed military advisers around him!"

"It's all up to you to guess, and you can't count it. You have to think about the best of people." Lu Zhonghe still shook his head and said: "Even if you guessed it, but you walked away when you got angry, and you are not following his way. ?”

"We're leaving, and his face is dull!" Xie Yunzhang snorted.

"As soon as we leave, what if we become weak and take refuge in the imperial court?" Lu Zhonghe said coldly: "There are too many people here this time, and it is inevitable that they have their own ideas. We have to stay here to avoid What a moth!"

"Oh, okay." Xie Yunzhang responded angrily, "I just can't swallow this breath."

"Want to vent your anger? It's easy." Lu Zhonghe said with a faint smile: "Let's quickly call everyone for a meeting and remind them again that no one is allowed to admit that he is a maritime merchant tomorrow—otherwise, he will die in the south of the Yangtze River!"

"Okay." Xie Yunzhang nodded heavily: "Isn't his sixth son not talking to us, and wants to talk directly with Haishang? This time there is no Haishang, it depends who you talk to!"

"Young man, you think you can go on the rampage just because of your status," Lu Zhonghe said with a smile full of wisdom: "When he touches his nose and face is swollen, he will know why he wants to be a 'corporal of courtesy'. He will come naturally at that time." Talk to us."

"It's not as simple as this time." Xie Yunzhang gave a grin, and then ordered the housekeeper loudly:

"Don't be in a hurry to clean up, hurry up and call all the masters, I will treat them to sugar water!"
