Emperor Ling of Han was the last powerful emperor of the Han Dynasty, a figure who could have altered the course of history, yet he became the root cause of the empire's collapse.
Fate ha...
As the servant carried the food, he shouted loudly to the maids in the hall, "There are twelve guests, at the large table on the east side of the hall!"
"Hmm? That's a voice?"
Upon hearing the servant's shrill shout, Lü Bu paused, a hint of doubt flashing across his face.
The same was true for Gao Shun and the others standing nearby; to them, the voice sounded almost exactly the same as that of the eunuchs who proclaimed imperial edicts.
"Distinguished guests, please follow me!"
Just as everyone was wondering, a maid dressed in palace attire gracefully approached them.
The maidservant gestured with one hand, leading Lü Bu and the others towards a large table on the east side.
As they walked along, although Lü Bu and his men were dressed in military uniforms, they did not attract much attention from the other guests, who were clearly used to it.
After everyone was seated, a maid brought over a menu, handed it to Lü Bu, and said with a smile:
"Please simply order according to the picture to see what you would like to eat!"
Upon hearing this, Lü Bu opened the menu and saw exquisite pictures of the dishes, with a series of numbers marked below each dish.
Lu Bu couldn't understand those numbers, so he didn't look at them much or ask any questions.
He was afraid that if he asked too many questions, people would think he was a country bumpkin and make him a laughing stock.
"Hmm, I want this... and this... and one more of this!"
Therefore, Lü Bu would pick out the most beautiful-looking dish from each page he turned.
Meanwhile, the maidservant beside him kept smiling throughout, memorizing the dishes that Lü Bu had ordered.
"Okay, that's all for now!"
After ordering more than a dozen dishes, Lü Bu closed the menu and handed it back to the maid.
After taking the menu, the waitress asked, "Yes, would you like some drinks?"
"unnecessary!!"
Before anyone could speak, Gao Shun was the first to refuse.
Seeing this, everyone had no choice but to shut their mouths in embarrassment.
