Food for the people

As soon as He En said those words, everyone present couldn't help but hold their breath, and looked at the two cautiously, for fear that the two of them would draw swords and quarrel in front of them.

But after Lu Jincheng smiled, he lowered his head and took a piece of watermelon from the carved plate in front of him, put it in front of Qiao Yu, and asked softly, "Eat more if you like it."

Qiao Yu smiled at him, took the watermelon, but didn't eat it, so he finally had time to look up at He En.

He didn't know this person, but it was obvious that this person had a lot of opinions on him, and even talked to Lu Jincheng in a very aggressive tone, which made him a little uncomfortable.

And what the man said next made him even more upset.

After He En said that, he also thought that Lu Jincheng would definitely break up with him, but he didn't expect that Lu Jincheng would ignore him at all, and handed Qiao Yu another piece of watermelon in a grand manner. With a cold snort, he said, "He's a country man who doesn't know the rules, so doesn't the prince know either?"

In fact, He En didn't mean to make Lu Jincheng unhappy. He is pedantic. Although he was dismissed by the emperor last time in court, he really felt that Lu Jincheng's marriage was outrageous. I think it is a big joke for a prince to marry a man. It will be recorded in the history books in the future, and they will be pointed and scolded by later generations.

But he really couldn't persuade the emperor, so he could only start with Lu Jincheng. He didn't know how many ecstasy drugs this Princess Yan had given Lu Jincheng, which made Lu Jincheng intoxicated, but he felt that since Lu Jincheng watched If it is not clear, then he has to point it out for Lu Jincheng to see clearly.

Just now he didn't see that Lu Jincheng presented the watermelon to Qiao Yu, so when he noticed that Qiao Yu started to eat the fruit without waiting for the emperor to come, he said that Qiao Yu was blind in front of Lu Jincheng. The king doesn't know the rules, he thought he said that, Lu Jincheng should be able to notice that this person has no rules at all, he is really not a suitable candidate for Princess Yan.

Unexpectedly, after listening to his words, Lu Jincheng not only didn't teach Qiao Yu a lesson, but also gave Qiao Yu another piece from the plate.

He En was so angry that he wanted to ask Qiao Yu if he had tricked Lu Jincheng, and even Lu Jincheng, who was not clear-headed, scolded him too.

Lu Jincheng didn't respond yet, but when Qiao Yu heard it, he exploded immediately.

He could bear it if he said him, but he couldn't bear to talk about their prince in front of so many people.

He turned his eyes around He En, and then looked at the watermelon in his hand. After a while, he took a bite in front of He En, chewed and swallowed it slowly, then looked at He En and said : "Master He, what you said is inappropriate, is it inappropriate like this?"

He En didn't expect that Qiao Yu would dare to provoke him. He shook his fingers angrily, pointed at Qiao Yu and said, "Look at yourself, what do you look like! Is this someone who can be Princess Yan! It's just nonsense !"

Qiao Yu saw him for the first time today, so naturally he didn't know why he was so dissatisfied with him, but now that He En bumped into his gun, he was not in a good mood, so he couldn't care less , put the watermelon on the table, and said with a sneer: "Since the emperor put the fruit on the table, it is natural for everyone to taste it. Does it mean that Huang En put aside?"

He En didn't expect him to be so eloquent, and he was rendered speechless by Qiao Yu's words for a moment. After a while, he came back to his senses and said, "Absurd, when did I let you put the emperor's grace aside? Let me ask you, the emperor hasn't even been there yet, and you use the fruit points on the table without authorization, what is it if you don't see the king!"

Qiao Yu looked at the crowd, everyone didn't expect him to argue with He En, at this moment they all looked like they were watching the show, obviously no matter who said they were defeated, they were all happy to see the outcome.

Qiao Yu looked at Lu Jincheng again, and Lu Jincheng was also looking at him with his head tilted. His eyes were indulgent, and he didn't mean to reprimand him for messing around. Instead, he seemed to be backing him. No matter what he said, he would I can take it off for him without any scruples.

Qiao Yu was relieved, and he didn't plan to hide it anymore. Since he decided to come to this banquet today, he couldn't disappoint Lu Jincheng. Lu Jincheng took the trouble to let the emperor host this banquet, just to let him appear openly In front of everyone, if he was so easily handled by He En today, then everyone who saw him would give him a look like Wen Shaolin He En, thinking that he was weak and easy to bully, and anyone could poke and scold him.

He was going to give these people a bad start today, and let them know that he was never a countryman, nor was he someone they could easily provoke.

Thinking of this, Qiao Yu smiled again, this time his eyes were even colder, he tapped his fingers on the table twice, looked at He En and asked: "Master He, I will answer your questions after you ask me, I will ask you first The question is, who is hosting the banquet today?"

He En stared: "Of course it's the emperor, what do you mean by that?"

Qiao Yu still didn't answer and asked instead: "Let me ask you again, if you were hosting a banquet today, wouldn't you serve some fruit to the guests?"

He En was overwhelmed by his question, and felt that Qiao Yu was trying to trick him, but after thinking about it, he felt that there was nothing wrong with these two sentences. After thinking about it twice, he said: "Since the banquet As a guest, it is natural to put it on."

Qiao Yu nodded, as if he felt that what he said was polite, changed his voice, and said, "Then what does your lord mean that you put fruit snacks on the table, but you don't allow people to eat it? Just put it on for people to see?"

He En was furious, and felt that this was an insult to him, he reprimanded: "Of course not, the fruits are put on display for people to eat, there is no reason to put them on for people to see!"

Qiao Yu didn't wait for him to finish speaking, she let out a meaningful ah, raised her head, and looked at him with a half-smile.

Only then did He En realize that he had fallen into Qiao Yu's tricks, and said angrily: "You deliberately deceived me, the fruit is good for people to eat, but there is no reason for the guests to eat first before the host arrives! Then Don't you completely ignore the master!"

Qiao Yu nodded thoughtfully: "Okay, if your lord said that, it's kind of reasonable, but I still want to ask, if someone eats first, what would you do? Throw him out of the house?"

Seeing that Qiao Yu changed the subject, He En thought that Qiao Yu was going to admit defeat and admit his mistake, and he didn't hold on to it any longer, looking like a small-hearted person, so he took advantage of the situation and said, "As long as he knows his mistakes, he will correct them, of course he won't."

Hearing what he said, Qiao Yu curled his lips into a smile as if he had finally got the answer he wanted.

Seeing his smile, He En's heart skipped a beat. He felt bad. He must have fallen for Qiao Yu's trap, but it was too late to change it now. He widened his eyes and only listened to Qiao Yu's words. He said in one sentence: "Mr. He is really kind-hearted. If someone eats a plate of fruit first, it is disrespectful to him. You have to be magnanimous to tolerate him. If this is the reason of your lord, I also recognize it. It's just that your lord has eaten it first." As I said, today’s banquet is for the emperor to invite everyone, so I dare to ask my lord, do you respect the emperor’s will when you scold me so righteously, or do you think your reasoning is the emperor’s reasoning?”

As soon as Qiao Yu finished speaking, everyone fell silent instantly.

No one in the huge hall spoke for a while, only He En's panting voice was heard, and it took him a while to say: "As a princess, you are so unruly, as a courtier, I can naturally speak!"

This time Qiao Yu didn't speak. Lu Jincheng, who was sitting behind him, suddenly reached out to hold Qiao Yu's hand, rubbed his fingers carelessly, looked up at He En coldly and said, "Master He still knows about him." It's from my Prince Yan's mansion, so in that case, is Mr. He teaching me for my brother, or for me to teach Princess Yan?"

His voice was frighteningly cold. There was not even a sound of gasping in the hall for a long time, and everyone was frightened by his appearance. After a while, Meng Zhao, who was sitting next to Qiao Yu, sighed in a low voice: "It's not good to offend anyone, offend him." Love, self-inflicted can't live."

Although Meng Zhao's voice was quiet, the hall was really quiet at this moment, his words were heard lightly in everyone's ears, and suddenly woke up all the people.

How can this Prince Yan not like the appearance of this Princess Yan at all, he obviously likes it badly, let alone provoke him, in the future, if he sees this Princess Yan, he will have to go far away, besides, this Princess Yan is really not a fuel-efficient lamp First, I heard that even Wen Shangshu's son was beaten by him, and today he tricked He En in front of everyone to show off his power. He didn't look like he had seen the world as everyone said. Waiting for sharp teeth, even if there is no Lu Jincheng behind him, he is not someone who can be easily provoked.

He En made Lu Jincheng's face turn pale with smoke from the top of his head when he said a word.

Lu Jincheng had already spoken to this point, so he naturally couldn't follow his words to talk about Qiao Yu, so he was so angry that he looked at Lu Jincheng and said, "Prince Yan is really confused, I don't know what ecstasy soup he gave you. Let you follow his words like this, Yang Kingdom has been established for a hundred years, no prince has ever married a male concubine, if the prince wants to be the No.

After all, he was getting old, and when he got angry, he started to speak indiscriminately. As soon as he said this, everyone was shocked. The eyes looking at him were already a little frightened, but at this time there was a sound coming from outside. The eunuch's voice shouted: "The emperor is here——"

He En's expression paused, and then he realized what he just said, and his heart jumped with fear, his face turned pale with fright.

Seeing that the emperor had already walked outside the palace, Lu Jincheng sneered, and said in a deep voice, "What? Is Mr. He going to take care of what I have to say to the late Emperor now? Or does your lord think that the emperor can't decide this matter? He You can't explain to my father even if you personally bestow the marriage?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the emperor stepped into the gate of the palace and walked in. He saw the silence in the palace, and heard voices in the palace from afar, and asked, "What are you talking about? ?”

He En's legs gave way, and he almost knelt on the ground. He only waited for Lu Jincheng to tell the emperor what he had said, and the emperor was furious, and his face was ashen for a while.

He En usually offended a lot of people with his straight talk, but at this moment, everyone in the hall looked at each other, except for a few who were worried about him, most of them gloated and waited for him to suffer.

However, after Qiao Yu glanced over everyone's faces, he stretched out his hand and squeezed Lu Jincheng's finger. Lu Jincheng raised his head and intertwined his eyes. He knew what he was going to do without words, and his gaze swept over He En indifferently. In the end, he followed Qiao Yu's wishes and spared him once.

Qiao Yu knew that Lu Jincheng was angry at this moment because he felt sorry for him, so he lost all anger in his heart, and met the emperor's gaze and said, "I'm talking about the melons and fruits rewarded by the emperor. They are really delicious. I can't wait to eat them first." After eating two yuan, I am about to tell the emperor the truth."

The emperor turned his eyes over the faces of the people, and finally landed on Qiao Yu, and said with a smile, "Let Yanjin bring you some more, and when you get married, let him take as much as you want."

Lu Jincheng stood up and said with a smile, "I still don't thank Brother Huang for your kindness."

Qiao Yu smiled, and said under He En's unbelievable eyes: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."
