Brocade legend

Chapter 341 Good wine and good food
What is Wang Zhi's luck? After Xu Weixue and Ye Zi died, no one knew better than Ye Zongman... Even when they were still alive, only Ye Zongman knew best!

Wang Zhi always believed that Lu Bing was his luck!

Because of Lu Bing, Wang Zhi, the king of Jinghai in the eyes of others, is here today.

Anyway, when Wang Zhi heard that Zhu Liu was coming, it was as if he had taken a reassurance.

Because everyone knows that Zhu Liu is Lu Bing's number one confidant general.

Because Wang Zhi didn't believe that in the Ming Dynasty with Lu Bing, who would dare to touch him!

He believed in Lu Bing, he believed in Zhu Liu, he believed in Jin Yiwei...

Seeing Wang Zhi, who was in high spirits, planning to board the fast boat to Ningbo, Ye Zongman suddenly pushed away Wang Zhi who was following Wang Zhi.

Wang Fu staggered, almost fell, and was about to yell, but was stopped by Wang Zhi's stern eyes.

Wang Zhi thought that Ye Zongman was going to stop him, so he turned around with a frown.

The expressionless Ye Zongman suddenly smiled, and said: "Wang Wei is still young and has good physical strength. Let him take people on the boat, and he will run around to meet you in the future. I am old, and I am not as strong as you. , just let me go with you, lest I have to run all over the world to find you."

Wang Zhi understood what Ye Zongman meant, he couldn't help sighing, and said, "Why did you come here!"

"No matter who is around you, at least I must be behind you." Ye Zongman said flatly: "In this way, both of us can feel at ease.

Wang Zhi looked at Ye Zongman, and suddenly burst into laughter: "Okay! Then let us brothers live and die together! Advance and retreat together! Hahahahahaha!"

……

On the sixth day of November in Jiajing, Wang Zhi, Ye Zongman and Wang Qingxi went ashore to pay homage to Hu Zongxian.Yu Wangfu stayed in Zhoushan...

Wang Zhi and his party were warmly welcomed by Hu Zongxian and other Jiangnan officials.

But just when Wang Zhi followed Hu Zongxian and other officials into the Ningbo government office, Hu Zongxian immediately used the excuse of capturing the pirate leader Wang Zhi and others to win in secret.

From the beginning to the end...Wang Zhi didn't see Zhu Liu's shadow...

……

"Hahahahaha! Captain Wang, I'm really looking forward to you so anxiously, I can't see through it!" Hu Zongxian laughed and greeted Wang Zhi, calling Wang Zhi, Ye Zongman, and Wang Qingxi to the table.

At this time, on the big round table, a table of good wine and food has been placed.

The cuisine is Ningbo's "Yongbang cuisine". Yongbang cuisine is good at cooking seafood, combining fresh and salty, with steaming, roasting, stewing and other techniques as the main techniques.

On this table are the top ten famous dishes in Ningbo's "Yongbang Cuisine": soft-shelled soft-shelled turtle, pan-roasted river eel, yellow croaker wrapped in bean curd skin, grilled with mossy vegetables, golden chicken with fire, steamed meat with lotus leaf powder, and whole yellow croaker , foie gras wrapped in net oil, yellow croaker maw, and yellow croaker dragged with moss.

The end is full of color, fragrance and taste!It makes people move their index fingers.

There are also two altars of Shaoxing yellow and flower carvings. The Shaoxing yellow has been warmed up, and the aroma is tangy.Huadiao also went to Huangni, just waiting for the drinkers to drink.

Wang Zhi, Ye Zongman, Hu Zongxian and other high-ranking officials made room for a while before taking their seats.

Hu Zongxian saw that Wang Zhi and Ye Zongman had both sat down, but the one who seemed to be called Wang Qingxi did not take their seats, but stood not far behind Wang Zhi.

Hu Zongxian froze for a moment, and then greeted with a smile on his face: "This distinguished guest, why don't you take your seat?"

Wang Qingxi looked like an accountant. Seeing Hu Zongxian's question, he hurriedly said with a smile on his face: "The master is here, villains are not allowed to sit, this is the rule."

"This..." Seeing Wang Qingxi like this, Hu Zongxian didn't know what to say.

Wang Zhi smiled and said: "Old Wang is like this, sir, don't pay attention to him."

"Then... that's fine." Hearing Wang Zhi also say the same, Hu Zongxian had no choice but to give up.

Hu Zongxian picked up a glass of wine, respected Wang Zhizhi and said: "Captain Wang's benevolence and righteousness, I really admire this official. This is the first wine. I represent the tens of thousands of people in the southeast of Ming Dynasty. Thank you for your compassion."

Wang Zhi hurriedly said that he didn't dare, picked up the wine glass, and had a drink with Hu Zongxian.

Hu Zongxian and Wang Zhi chatted and laughed a few words, then greeted: "Eat vegetables, eat vegetables, these are all famous dishes in Ningbo!"

Wang Zhi nodded and smiled. Of course he also knows the deliciousness of Ningbo cuisine.

After all the food and drink, Wang Zhi thought it was over and it was time to talk about something serious.

Unexpectedly, after the leftovers were removed, there were more than a dozen maids serving more than a dozen dishes.

Hu Zongxian looked at the maids setting the tables with a smile, and said to Wang Zhi: "Ningbo people treat guests, and the host has a dialect saying, 'Let's have dinner, let's make sure you are full!'. Today, we drank the wine, and the dishes After eating, the meal will be served again!"

Wang Zhi can understand some Ningbo dialect, and that sentence is, "Let's have dinner, let's do it, and the meal is full!" ' means, 'There are no dishes, but you have to be full! '

In fact, it is impossible for Ningbo people to treat guests to dinner without food, which is related to the issue of face!The self-effacement of "let's have a meal" is just a typical Ningbo-style politeness.

Therefore, Wang Zhi really felt Hu Zongxian's enthusiasm.

Also on the table were some pasta meals, including dragon and phoenix golden balls, eight-treasure rice with red bean paste, crispy fried pork with lard, steamed buns with fresh meat, siu mai crystal oil buns, pork dumplings from Ningbo, three delicacies feast, steamed fresh meat wontons, red bean paste Yuanzi, ground chestnut cake, crab rice dumpling, rice noodles with pot stickers, lard dumpling, and rice balls with fermented glutinous rice.

It is extremely rich!
After eating this meal for nearly three hours, Hu Zongxian just talked with Wang Zhi about romance and folk life, without mentioning anything else.

Satisfied with wine and food, Hu Zongxian arranged for Wang Zhi and others to stay, and after sending a maid to serve, he sneaked to a room in the backyard.

Zhu Liu and Zhang Mo are waiting for him.

"Has the victory memorial been sent back to Beijing?" Hu Zongxian asked Zhang Modao as soon as he entered the door.

"It's already been sent back. The route we took didn't involve Jin Yiwei." Zhang Mo nodded.

"Even so, we can't be careless." Zhu Liu said cautiously: "No one knows where Jin Yiwei has placed secret nails. If the good news reaches the emperor's hands, even if Wang Zhi's life is knocked to death, it may also be killed by Lu Bing It turns out that... if Jin Yiwei is mobilized by Lu Bing, we will probably lose everything."

Hu Zongxian and Zhang Mo also nodded in agreement.

Zhang Mo thought for a while and said, "If you expect to get Wang Zhi's confession, and then impeach Lu Bing, this... is a bit passive."

"Oh?" Hu Zongxian asked, "What's Mr. Zhang thinking?"

"Today we have temporarily delayed Wang Zhi, but this is not a long-term solution. Once Wang Zhi's subordinates know that Wang Zhi is actually detained by us, then the counterattack of those pirates is enough for us to deal with it." Zhang Mo Frowning slightly, he said, "Once this matter is exposed, Lu Bing will definitely know about it. At that time, it is still unknown whether we have pried Wang Zhi's mouth open!"
