The Melancholy of the National Teacher

When the lord of Yunping City, who looked like a skeleton, saw Helian Yu, he wiped away his tears and held his hand tightly.

"Your Highness! I haven't seen you for many years, I miss you like a torrent!"

The exaggerated tone made Helian Yu's hair stand on end, while Le Dao stared at the hands of the lord of Yunping City, thinking about how to chop them off and feed them to the dog.

Before he broke out, He Lianyu easily broke free of his hand, and the lord of Yunping City was about to continue to pounce on him, but A Rishan and Le Sheng joined forces to stop him one foot away from the big witch.

However, this couldn't stop the enthusiasm of the Lord of Yunping City. He supported Ah Rishan's arm, and after a while, he even started to wipe away his tears. He sobbed and said, "It's good that you are still so healthy, Your Highness."

He Lianyu restrained his urge to sigh, and said: "It's been a long time, Lord City Master... Is there a prepared banquet over there?"

The city lord followed suit and changed the subject, "Yes, everything is ready, and we will be seated soon."

An hour later, Ulun, who had never experienced a banquet between officials and ministers, suspected that what the lord of Yunping City said was fast, should be the opposite of what the civilian slave said was fast.

They were first invited to another room by the attendants in the tent. Uren stepped forward on the silk as soft as a baby's skin, feeling warmer as he walked forward, and soon the dense water vapor filled the entire aisle. Behind the curtain of the door, he saw a huge pool.

The bluestone-paved pool was filled with warm water, and there were finely crushed flower petals and vanilla leaves floating on the water. The scent was a bit pungent to Uren. The tip of his nose shrugged, and he sneezed loudly before everyone could react.

Uren wiped his nose, and when he raised his head again, he found that the attendants who had been silent just now had hurriedly released the water in the pool, scooped up the spices inside, and cleaned the walls and bottom of the pool.In the blink of an eye, the water in the pool was changed, and the newly poured water into the pool was crystal clear, and there was nothing in it. If it wasn't for the faint fragrance remaining in the air, he might feel that it was just a his hallucinations.

At that time, Ulen felt that this was already very extravagant.

Until he came out after soaking and saw the so-called feast.

There are more than a dozen red lacquered square tables, arranged in the shape of concave characters, with large plates and small plates, large bowls and small bowls on them.First, milk tea, cheese, soufflé, cream, and then mutton bone soup bubbling in a black iron cauldron, thin slices of beef and mutton, skewers of lamb and beef on cabbage leaves, large pieces of finger meat , steamed fish longer than an adult's arm, as well as fried rice, noodle cakes, and pastries.It was full, without any gaps, but the brightly dressed maids kept serving the dishes.

This made Wu Lun feel that there might be other guests besides them at the so-called banquet. As a result, he didn't realize that Quan Luoqiu and his female slave didn't appear here at all, except Yunping. The lord of the city, Wu A Rishan from Qinglu, only the Emperor Da'an, his national teacher, Yue Sheng, and himself participated in the banquet.

In other words, the food that is enough for a hundred people to eat and drink with their stomachs open only belongs to six people.

Uren found that this was the first time he was completely uninterested in food.

Diagonally across from him, His Majesty the Emperor glanced at him, then turned his head, and said to Helian Yu: "Which person has your nephew been taken care of these years? All right?"

"Commander He's sister, Naren's childhood playmate." He Lianyu said that Commander He was Naren's bodyguard and Ulun's father. "I met her when I returned to Qinglu at the age of 17." , She is a very good girl. As for the fact that you want to satirize Wu Lun's pettiness, I have to say that he is very good."

"I didn't want to say that this kid is petty, but if you want to keep this kid by your side, be careful that he is swallowed by a group of foxes in the imperial capital until there is no bone left." Le Dao said.

"It's not suitable for him to stay by my side. The place he will go to is Daxue Mountain." Helian Yu said.

Ledao blinked.

He stared at Helian Yu for a breath, and found that the big witch didn't mean to be joking at all, so he suddenly realized that he looked at Wulun again, this time he looked at Wu Lun much more seriously, and everyone present could understand the burning intent feel.

He didn't look away until he saw Ulun as a stiff statue, turned his head and bit Helian Yu's ear.

"Bloodline is really amazing. Even if it is Wu Dynasty, the talent of Sun Dawu is rarely passed on to the next generation by parents."

"You interrupted me to pick up the food, Your Majesty." The big witch pushed away the emperor who tirelessly annoyed him.

The actions of these two people did not feel anything to them, but it made the onlookers blush and their hearts beat. Except for the two of them sitting together, the rest of the people at the table occupied one direction on the long line of the red lacquered wooden table.He Lianyu's cushion was a bit further back than Le Dao's, which meant that he sat on the seat as a witch subordinate to Le Dao.Originally, as a great witch, he didn't have to do this at all, but he did it anyway.

This made the Lord of Yunping City, who wanted to exchange feelings with Helianyu, very sad.

However, Wu Lun already knew why food for a hundred people would be served at a banquet for six people, and the Lord of Cloud Screen City demonstrated it for him personally.This Hu man with only a skeleton left only asked his attendants to help him take a bite of each dish, and never tasted the rest of the dish.

"Because the main course hasn't been served yet." Le Xing told him across three or four tables.

And the main course? !

As if echoing Uhlen's thoughts, the main course finally arrived at the last moment.Accompanied by flowers and the desolate music of the ponytail, it was carried up by four maids.The first thing Ulen saw was a rectangular wooden board. After the four maids put the board down, he saw that there was a whole roasted lamb on the board.The outer skin is browned, and the fat flows along the grooves of the muscles, exuding the fragrance of meat and heat waves.

Then another maid came to the table.

This maid is completely different from other maids, her beauty is like the dewdrops on the roses, exuding the brilliance of stars.The snow-white complexion made the red lips look like burning flames, and the gold and silver rings continued from her slender wrist to the elbow, and there was also a gold neck ring on the large bare snow-white chest, inlaid with jasper and precious stones.She didn't wear shoes either—it's usually a witch who doesn't—and her little feet were sunk in soft wool that looked indistinguishable from the white tanned wool.

"This is my favorite maid, Zhulan." The Lord of Cloud Screen City said.

Zhulan is indeed a graceful and lovely person. She cut off the hind legs of the roasted whole lamb with a knife, and showed them the silver knife. She closed and opened her movements, like a peacock dancing.She has dark green eyes, a color often described as emerald, and when she looks straight at you, you feel reflected not only in the emerald, but also in her heart.

Le Dao suddenly stretched out his hand to cover Helian Yu's eyes, interrupting Zhulan's gaze on Helian Yu.

Helian Yu lowered his eyes, this time he didn't push Le Dao's hand away.

Zhulan peeled off the meat from the hind leg of the lamb, first the burnt skin, then the muscle, and placed them on the plate piece by piece.This is the delicate meat from the sheep, so it is naturally dedicated to the most honorable person at the banquet. She carried the plate and walked towards the table of Le Dao and Helianyu, and walked to the front of the banquet, with a particularly elegant but more prominent figure. Slowly bent down, held up the plate and sent it to Helian Yu.

Le Dao's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, he took the plate, and impatiently waved Zhulan back, when he turned around, he found that Helian Yu stretched out his chopsticks as if he hadn't noticed anything, A piece of browned pork skin was picked up on the plate inside.

"..." Le said.

With great swiftness he placed the plate as far away as possible from them.

"Ah," Wu Lun, who was watching the scene, asked, "Brother Le Xing, does this woman want to be my aunt?"

***

"Even your nephew can see she's seducing you!"

Le Dou who returned to the room said.

The dinner party is over - maybe it can't be called a dinner party?After all, it was early in the morning when the banquet ended—after the city lord promised to attend this year's winter festival in Yunping City, the tired guests were detained and stayed overnight in the king's tent.

Of course, the emperor and his shaman weren't put in the same room, but that didn't stop the emperor from following the shaman into rooms that didn't belong to him.

His Majesty the Emperor circled around Helian Yu's room, he walked from one end of the room to the other end of the room, repeating the cycle.Helian Yu sat on the carpet, leaning against the low table, resting his chin with his hands, staring blankly at Le Dao, who was like a dancing bee, buzzing as it flew.

"She will come back to your room to see you tonight, and talk to you all night under the pretense of teaching witchcraft, and then go to bed after talking."

Da Wu said slowly, "I thought it was you who wanted to do this."

Ledao turned around abruptly.

At this moment, His Majesty's aura reached its peak, like a fierce eagle spreading its wide wings to intimidate its enemies. He stared at Helian Yu, as if he was about to pounce on him. good.

Helian Yu said without changing his expression: "It's been a long time, Your Majesty... If you like that maid so much, then I will give up this room to Your Majesty, and you can chat with her later."

The emperor was still staring at Helian Yu. Under the light, Helian Yu could see the pupils in his deep amber eyes shrinking. Helian Yu and him looked at each other for a moment, and heard him full of doubts: "You clearly... ...I think you clearly..."

...You obviously like me too.

Le Dao said slowly in his heart.

That feeling can never be wrong.

The emperor pondered, he withdrew his momentum and straightened his back. After a while, under Helianyu's gaze, he took out a copper coin and held it flat in front of Helianyu.

It was the fortune-telling copper coin that Le Dao got from the Sun Worship Witch. Dirty green rust spread all over it, covering the raised writing on it. If it wasn't so old, Helian Yu would see the jade The word Yuan is the name of a great witch who died for love. It is believed that she and her stars will bless all loving men and women in the world.

This copper coin is dedicated to love divination.

Le Dao clenched his other hand into a fist and put the copper coin on the thumbnail.

The copper coin bounced, flipped, fell, and was slapped on the back of the hand by Le Dao.

"The stars are above, what I pray to Yu Yuan is the fate between you and me...Helian, do you know the result of the divination this time?"

The emperor spoke very fluently, as if he had rehearsed countless times, what he should only say to the queen in terms of etiquette.
