As soon as news of the banquet spread, Suning's yard immediately became crowded with people coming and going with gifts to make friends.At first, everyone thought that Suning could not secure his position as Minister of Dali Temple, but with the support of Prime Minister Wu behind him, his future would be limitless.

How can an old fritter who has been immersed in officialdom for many years not understand this truth.

At this moment, an aide sent by Prime Minister Wu is called Jin Huan, who looks stable and is 30 years old, helping him socialize in the front hall.Suning was dragged to the backyard by Tao Hongyi and Han Zimo, both of them looked very serious.

"Ning Ning, do you really want to follow Prime Minister Wu?" Han Zimo jumped out of his temper and couldn't help asking at first. "I used to think that you became the Minister of Dali Temple, and then..."

"What?"

Han Zimo stomped his feet and said in a low voice, "Just be loyal to the emperor."

Su Ning smiled and said: "I am an official in the Jin Dynasty, and of course my allegiance is to the Jin Dynasty. But Wu Zai has been kind to me, and I am indeed his student now."

Tao Hongyi's face turned cold, and he said hesitantly: "Ningning, you have to choose this path well. If you choose wrongly, not only will you be unable to be a friend, but you may become an enemy in the officialdom in the future."

"The path I choose is where my ambition lies in my life."

Seeing Suning's expression, Tao Hongyi knew that he would not be turned around by people's persuasion, so he could only sigh, folded his hands and said regretfully, "Since this is the case, I will not say much. I only hope that Lin Ning will have a smooth sailing in the future."

"Thank you Hongyi." Suning also answered with hands clasped.

Seeing that the atmosphere gradually became very strange, Han Zimo stomped his feet and said in a panic, "What are you two doing? We were good friends before, and we will be good friends in the future. What does this officialdom matter have to do with us, Hong Yi, don't worry about it." That's it."

"I won't say much." Tao Hongyi ignored Han Zimo's coquettishness and bid farewell with his hands clasped together.

Han Zimo couldn't help Tao Hongyi, blinked his watery eyes, and looked at Suning almost crying.

Su Ning smiled lightly and said, "Go with him, Hong Yi is in a bad mood, and it will make you feel better if you follow him."

Han Zimo hesitated for a while, but still ran towards Tao Hongyi who had been with him for more than ten years.

Suning looked at the figures of the two leaving, turned and walked into the room.

When the wind blew, the fallen leaves fluttered and swirled in the empty courtyard.

The banquet will be held in Prime Minister Wu's mansion three days later. During this period, Suning only needs to go to Dali Temple every day. After returning, he will be courteous with the visitors, get to know some people in the officialdom, and get acquainted with a few of Prime Minister Wu's friends by the way. Staff.

On the contrary, he had a lot of fun and tried his best to organize a list of guests and the items he sent.

Suning glanced around, handed the list to Jin Huan and said, "According to what they send, sort them into different categories and send back more. Don't owe favors." Prime Minister Wu sent Jin Huan to him, which meant surveillance, but more More is to help him.

Jin Huan nodded and took the list, with a frosty voice, and said, "Jin Huan will finish it as soon as possible, and the only one on the list is Master Jing Zhao Yin Chang Cheng who has not come to give gifts yet."

"Jing Zhaoyin?" Su Ning raised his eyebrows. This Jing Zhaoyin is equivalent to the mayor of a modern city. If an official takes office, this person should come here no matter what.

Jin Huan said: "There was a mob in Hanmei Town, Master Chang went to mediate, but he hasn't returned from Hanmei Town yet."

"Well, I got it." Suning nodded, letting Jinhuan handle these matters with confidence.Jin Huan was sent by Prime Minister Wu. Although he was older than Suning, he was polite in front of him.Especially looking at his attitude of receiving guests in the front hall, he is also a capable and tolerant person.

"Let's leave with joy."

Three days later, there was a turmoil of people, and there was an endless stream of people entering and leaving the prime minister's mansion.

The house was full of distinguished guests, drinking wine and raising wine.The zither is playing vigorously, and the new sound is wonderful.

The officials sitting there first toasted to the emperor, and then moved to the side of Suning, praising each other one after another, all of which were young heroes and talents.

Waiting for Tao Hongyi and Han Zimo to come over to toast, Han Zimo simply dragged the reluctant Tao Hongyi to sit on both sides of Suning. Although Tao Hongyi had a reluctance on his face, he still helped Suning block the wine.

"Calm down?" Su Ning held up his wine glass, covered his mouth with a sleeve and asked Han Zimo with a small smile.

"Of course not. Hongyi and I are going to investigate you carefully, whether you are really a good official. If you become a bad person, we will not spare you." Han Zimo also covered his mouth with his sleeve robe, and sharpened his sharpened Small teeth, whispered threats.

Suning finished the wine in his hand, and smiled even more, children are really innocent and funny.

Waiting for the trays of dishes to come up, Qingsha Manluo's maid took them over, skillfully placed the dishes, and put a pot of milky white soup in the center.

The style and aroma of this pot of soup immediately attracted most people. The stewed milky white is thick and has a strange fragrance, but it is a taste that everyone has never smelled before.

The scholar sitting next to Han Zimo immediately got up, took a spoonful and put it into the porcelain bowl. The meat seemed to have been boiled for a long time, and the entrance was polarized, and it was separated from the bone. "Well, not bad." Meng Xueshi finished drinking a bowl of soup, wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and said with a smile: "Master Prime Minister, not only are the servants in your mansion attentive, but the cooking taste is also unique. This meat It's really fresh and tender. This is the first time this old man has tasted this in his life."

Prime Minister Wu also scooped up a spoon for himself, and after taking a sip, he was amazed by the taste of the soup. He squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "Master Meng, you are really joking. If you like it, why don't you wait for me to send the cook to your house?" How about that?" After speaking, he turned to the maid next to him and said, "Go to the kitchen and ask, what's the name of this soup."

"Yes." The maid left quickly.

Xueshi Meng was overjoyed when he accepted the words and said bluntly: "Hey, the official is really respectful rather than obedient. I have loved this appetite all my life." After finishing speaking, he scooped up another spoon for himself.

The others laughed out loud when they heard it. No one knew that this Bachelor Meng just loves to eat. With his extraordinary literary talent, he even published a very elegant recipe book, which can be called a master of food.

Han Zimo became greedy when he smelled the smell. He scooped a spoon for himself and put it into a bowl. He took the chopsticks to pick up the meat, but he saw that what he scooped up were all broken bones. Robbed.

"Hmph~" Han Zimo was aggrieved, holding a broken paw between his teeth, and was about to chew on it, but just as he was about to eat it, Suning held his hand down.The chicken feet accidentally fell from the chopsticks to the ground.

"What's wrong with Ningning?" Han Zimo looked at Suning in confusion.

"Don't drink the soup now." Su Ning said quickly, only bent down to pick up the paw.

Meng Xueshi, who was eating happily next to him, looked at the situation and smiled and said: "Oh, I have eaten too much. If Mr. Su wants to eat, he doesn't have to bend down to pick it up."

"Hello!" Han Zimo yelled to Bachelor Meng in dissatisfaction. He really ate and drank too much, and he couldn't even speak properly.

Su Ning took the broken bone to the table, took the knife and fork next to the table, and picked apart the meat next to the broken bone.

Han Zimo was watching Suning chopping up the bones. He was greedy for soup, but just when he looked up at Suning's face, he shivered immediately.Why does this look very much like when dissecting a corpse?Han Zimo looked down again, the knife and fork cut along the texture of the meat, exposing the white bones inside.

Han Zimo couldn't help shivering again.

"Little prince, what's the matter? Is it cold?" Prime Minister Wu saw Han Zimo's movements and immediately asked affectionately.

Han Zimo waved his hand, deciding not to drink this bowl of soup again.

I just removed the meat wrapped around the bones, and the bones inside are white and glowing with a strange tender red color, and there are many cut marks on the broken parts.

Suning pressed Tao Hongyi's hand, which was also preparing to drink soup, and Tao Hongyi was surprised by the speed. The soup bowl fell to the ground, and debris and hot soup splashed everywhere.

"Hey! How can Mr. Su be so wasteful! What's wrong with you?" Seeing that Suning wasted his favorite soup, Xueshi Meng immediately supported his round belly and stood on tiptoe to look at the soup flowing around. Tsk tsk.

"Everyone, don't drink for the time being." Suning looked at some broken bones on the ground, frowning more and more.

The atmosphere suddenly turned cold, and everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, not understanding what the new Minister of Dali Temple meant.

Xueshi Meng is not happy. Someone stopping him from eating is the greatest insult to him.Immediately scooped up another spoon and drank it.

"Ning Ning said don't drink it." Han Zimo looked at Xueshi Meng and said.

Seeing Han Zimo's obedient appearance, Prime Minister Wu stroked his beard with new calculations in his heart.

"What happened to the officer?"

"It's up to him, as long as you don't finish eating the bones." Su Ning took all the broken bones to the table, with a gloomy expression.

The maid also came over at this moment, and Fushen said: "This pot of soup is called Baigutang, and it is made from the bones of cattle, sheep, pigs, and chickens."

"Hundred bones~" Suning repeated, and immediately reacted and whispered, "Bones."

"Master Prime Minister, come with me, I have something important to report. Please don't drink this pot of soup now~"

Prime Minister Wu felt suspicious when he saw Suning's gossip, but followed Suning to leave first.

On the promenade passing through the front hall and the backyard, Suning took out the broken bone and said to Prime Minister Wu, "This is not an animal bone, but a human bone."

"What!" Prime Minister Wu's face turned pale.

"I wasn't sure at first, until I saw a knuckle, which is a knuckle of a human finger, and animals absolutely don't have it."

Prime Minister Wu couldn't believe it, even though he had been in a high position for so many years, he was never in such a panic. "Are you sure?"

"Students have done autopsies for so many years, and they are absolutely clear about every inch of the bones of the human body. Now the adults ask the maid to remove this dish, before anything serious happens."

Prime Minister Wu rubbed his hands and couldn't speak clearly, "Yes, yes, the emperor is here. This, this..." This kind of thing happened at the banquet he hosted, even if he was insolent, it was also a big crime, a big crime !

"There is also the confinement of the kitchen, and everyone who cooks and delivers food today must be checked."

"Yes, yes, yes." Su Ning was so calm that Prime Minister Wu began to think about how to make this big event smaller.
