My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?

Snowflakes are falling.

The rootless snow in the sky was just like the doubts that kept growing in the hearts of Cao Mao and Qi Ai.

Regarding papermaking, Ying Chengxuan only understood its principles but not the specific methods, so Ying Chengxuan described it in great detail, hoping that the two of them would have a theoretical basis for their own research.

However, when it came to other objects, Ying Chengyu's explanation became extremely sloppy, and he even didn't explain it at all. He just took out a drawing and asked the two to make it accordingly.

However, no amount of doubts can stop the two people from being full of enthusiasm.

Since it was Lord Chang'an's order, there must be Lord Chang'an's reason.

Never mind why.

Just do it!

The sun was already setting in the west, but none of the people in the tent had any intention of eating.

In the end, Zhang Xun couldn't help but interrupt as he calculated the rising costs: "My lord, it's time for dinner."

"Do you want to go back home first and discuss it later?"

Ying Chengyu raised his head, unconsciously took a deep breath to relieve the pressure on his brain, and asked in surprise: "Is it so late?"

Cao Cao said with emotion, "I have never felt the passage of time, let alone hunger in my belly."

"Being taught by Lord Chang'an is like drinking fine wine, you can't extricate yourself!"

Qi Ai's eyelids jumped when he heard this.

You Cao Mao with thick eyebrows and big eyes, you actually know how to flatter me? !

Ying Chengxiao couldn't help but smile: "I can talk freely with these two great craftsmen, it's like drinking sweet rain."

“However, words can prosper a nation but cannot fill its belly.”

"This empty belly should be filled with food."

During the discussion, the three of them were unaware of hunger.

When he was interrupted by Zhang Xun, the feeling of hunger began to spread, even worse than usual.

Cao Mao touched his belly and said casually: "Just ask the cook to bring you a bowl of corn."

"Time is tight, and Mr. Chang'an rarely has time."

"Since Mr. Chang'an is free today, let's discuss it as soon as possible to avoid troubling Mr. Chang'an again in the future."

Ying Chengyu stood up and smiled: "No matter how tight the time is, you will never miss a meal."

"If we can't finish our discussion today, I'd like to have a candlelit night talk with you two."

"But today is my triumphal banquet. Don't you two master craftsmen wish to honor me?"

Cao Mao resisted a little: "This drawing is not yet..."

In Cao Mao's view, socializing is more important than research!

Qi Ai hurriedly scolded Cao Mao again, smiled and handed over his hands: "It's my wish, but I don't dare to ask for your ear!"

"In this humble position, I still want to ask for an extra cup of water and wine from Lord Chang'an's residence, so that I can let my dog ​​taste it after I return home."

"It's a good idea for Quanzi to be blessed with Lord Chang'an!"

Ying Chengqiao laughed loudly: "It's a small matter."

"please!"

One after another, carriages rushed to Chang'an Jun's Mansion.

A villager brought his favorite ingredients or items and ran to Chang'an Jun's Mansion happily.

A rare banquet in which everyone from high to low was a guest, making the entire Chang'an Township even more lively than the day of the festival!

Mi Tian was wearing a pure black dress with pink edges. She stood at the entrance of the mansion in full attire, showing a special smile to every guest.

"Master Sun, you are here. Is this the fish you just caught this morning?! This is great. My master is very good at fish soup. I will use it to cook a hangover soup for my master tonight."

"Zhongzuo Zhang is here in person. If you are not welcomed from afar, please sit inside for a while!"

"My master has other important matters. He will be here later. I hope you will understand if you are negligent!"

The weather was freezing, but Mi Tian's face was a little flushed.

This is the first time she has handled such a big event, but so far she has not made any mistakes.

This feeling of having thousands or even tens of thousands of people moving around was really intoxicating to her!

Even though her legs were twitching from exhaustion, Mi Tian was still excited.

Finally, she waited for her acceptance officer.

"Lord!"

Seeing Ying Chengyu from a distance, Mi Tian hurriedly stepped forward and bowed: "Greetings, my lord!"

Ying Chengyu glanced at the layout of Chang'an Jun's Mansion, then looked inside along the door, and finally smiled: "Thank you for your hard work."

Mi Tian showed a bright smile: "To be praised by the master, I will be as happy as sweet cakes!"

Immediately, Mi Tian introduced in succession: "Now we are close to the afternoon meal."

"More than 5,000 guests have been admitted and seated."

"Weiyang Lord, Yangquan Lord and many other princes and nobles have also arrived."

Upon hearing this, Ying Chengyu turned around and said, "Steward Zhang, please stand outside the door to greet the guests."

Mi Tian stopped talking after hearing this and stood aside obediently.

She knew that with the return of Zhang Xun and Ying Chengyu, her work was over.

However, Ying Chengyu continued: "Mi Xiaoxing, you are focusing on the servants in the house."

"Don't let anything go wrong."

Mi Tian was slightly startled: "My lord, why don't you ask Butler Zhang to take care of the house while you personally greet the guests?"

Ying Cheng asked with a smile: "Can't you see that I am giving you a chance?"

Mi Tian's heart trembled violently.

Does Ying Chengyu trust her?

Although Mi Tian tried her best to flatter him, she could also feel the man's thoughts.

He didn't trust her.

Quite the opposite.

When it comes to trust, Ying Chengxuan's trust in Mi Tian is much lower than that of Ji Wei and Gui Ling, and Ying Chengxuan's trust in Ji Wei and Gui Ling is much lower than that of domestic servants and eunuchs such as Han Rou, Han Xun, and Zhang Ming. trust!

Ying Chengyu seems to have given Mi Tian some power.

But in fact, Mi Tian was given poisonous wine sprinkled with honey!

Once Mi Tian loses control of herself and uses her power to do something detrimental to the Chang'an Junfu, she will surely have an extremely tragic ending.

Can Mi Tian, ​​who longs for power, really be able to control herself?

Seeing the fear in Mi Tian's eyes, Ying Chengyu reached out and touched Mi Tian's head, and his voice became gentler: "No need to force yourself."

"I don't like the chaos in the house, and I don't like the power struggle in the house."

"This is just a simple job."

"If you like doing it, do it."

"If you don't like it, just leave it to the steward."

After struggling for a long time, Mi Tian finally bowed and said, "I will live up to my master's expectations!"

Ying Chengyu looked at Mi Tian, ​​and after a few breaths he smiled and nodded: "Good!"

After saying this, Ying Chengyu no longer paid attention to Mi Tian, ​​but raised his right hand and greeted with a smile: "Master Cao, Master Qi, please come in!"

After placing Cao Mao and Qi Ai at the VIP table, Ying Chengqiao whispered: "Let Han Xun come to see me."

Soon, Han Xun came quickly: "What are your orders, young master?"

Ying Cheng asked with a smile: "You haven't mastered your skills yet, have you?"

Han Xun smiled: "Young master, you are joking."

Ying Chengxuan ordered in a low voice: "Keep an eye on Mi Tian and all the people she is marrying."

"Once someone commits an act of betrayal, I promise you to kill him first and then report him."

"There is no need to worry about the law or the impact. I will bear all the consequences."

The smile on Han Xun's face became even brighter, and he bowed: "Wei!"

What Han Xun didn't say was.

Mrs. Han has already issued similar orders!

Ying Chengyu bowed his hands and said, "Thank you for your help!"

After giving the instructions, Ying Chengyu no longer took the matter to heart.

Picking up the wine cup, Ying Chengyu walked through the house like a butterfly through flowers, smiling at thousands of guests and friends, trying not to neglect anyone.

Picking up her clothes, Mi Tian hurried to the backyard, looked towards the south with excited eyes, and murmured softly:

"Aweng, I did it!"

…

at the same time.

In the distant Shouchun City, Jingpo was also at a banquet.

The size of this banquet held in the main hall of Shouchun Palace was far from comparable to the triumphal banquet at Chang'an Junfu.

But this banquet did not have the festive atmosphere of the Chang'an Junfu Banquet.

A low air pressure enveloped the main hall, and even the flickering candlelight seemed cold.

Raising the wine baron, Jingpo said softly: "Ah, there is no such thing as a good banquet!"

Scanning the whole place, Jingchou looked at the eagerness on the face of a famous foreign guest and said softly: "This banquet is not a good one, but we still don't know who will be dining in the end."

"Give the order, everyone get ready!"

After finishing speaking, Jingchou looked at Zhaocen and Qu Huan.

The three of them said nothing, but they all nodded lightly in unison.

In the side hall.

King Chu Han held the hilt of the sword with his right hand, released it, then tightened it again, and asked in a low voice: "Uncle, is this really what you want?"

Looking through the crack in the door at the Qu, Jing, and Zhao tribesmen and Young Master Fu Chu who were sitting in the main hall, King Chu's fierce voice trembled slightly: "If we really launch an attack today, I will become the enemy of the great clan and the royal family at the same time!"

When he first heard Li Yuan's advice, King Chu Han felt crazy.

To this day, King Chu Han still thinks Li Yuan’s idea is too crazy!

Li Yuan's voice was a little anxious: "What they have done in recent days has been seen by your Majesty!"

"Princess Zhao was intercepted and killed by them."

"The county soldiers in Shouchun City were transferred away by them."

"Even the palace guards and royal family members are being persuaded and won over by them!"

"Your Majesty!"

"They've got their swords at the side of your neck."

"Do you still have illusions?"

King Chu Han shook his head: "Of course, I am not ready yet."

"The talented people promoted by a few people have not yet grown up."

King Han of Chu tried to regard the heads of Guizhou and foreign guests as his power base to support him.

But the foundations of these two groups of people are too shallow, and they cannot support King Chu Han's ambitions in a short time!

Li Yuan sighed softly: "If we really wait until that time, it will be too late!"

"Since the king has made his mind clear, this battle is inevitable."

"They will not give the king time to slowly cultivate talents, and they will not sit back and watch their own interests be damaged."

The King of Chu said angrily: "How dare they kill the king openly!"

Li Yuan sighed and shook his head: "You don't know!"

"and."

Li Yuan asked back: "If the king has no such worries in his heart, how can he sit back and watch someone convene this banquet and gather them all?"

King Chu was silent.

Looking at the silent King Chu Han, Li Yuan's heart sank a little bit.

Finally, Li Yuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty."

"The king will just sit down in his high position later."

"There is no need for your Majesty to give orders, we will act on our own."

King Chu sighed deeply and bowed his hands: "Thank you, uncle!"

"Uncle Wanwang, please be careful!"

Li Yuan smiled bitterly in his heart.

Uncle Nai really owes you this life!

After agreeing on the scapegoat, King Chu Han walked into the main hall without hesitation and walked into the main hall with his head held high.

Jingchou and others quickly stood up and raised their hands: "Welcome to the king!"

"Wang Gong'an?"

King Chu Qian sat down on the throne, smiled and nodded: "I am at peace, my dear."

"Everyone here is a dear friend, so there is no need to be restrained."

"Come here, let's have a feast!"
