Chapter 514: King Huai'an is even more angry
Murong Li didn't expect that General Wei would come out at this time to help him and make trouble for King Huai'an. This was an olive offer to him, and of course he had to accept it.
This General Wei is not what the ministers often say he is, a simple-minded but strong-limbed man. He is a very meticulous person.
Murong Li admired General Wei very much and gave him a thumbs up in his heart. This kind of person was exactly what he needed.
He looks simple-minded on the surface, but he is actually a brave and resourceful person. Only such a person can confuse people's minds.
King Huai'an was dragged to the fifth floor by General Wei and entered their private room. Most of the people in this room were officials from the Ministry of War. When they saw King Huai'an coming, they all stood up to greet him and gave him their seats.
General Wei sat down beside him and placed the pot of wine in front of him: "Your Highness, please try this wine. It's a good wine."
After saying this, he burped, picked up a pair of serving chopsticks, and a clean bowl, filled it with vegetables, and placed it in front of King Huai, saying, "Your Highness, the food here is truly delicious. I have never tasted anything so delicious before. Please try it."
Prince Huai'an was almost unable to hold back his expression, but seeing that the whole room was full of people from the Ministry of War, he really couldn't lose face.
He didn't want to fall out with the people in the Ministry of War. The people in the Ministry of War all held military power. He could only offend people from other places, but he couldn't offend people from the Ministry of War.
Later, he wanted to start a rebellion and angered these people, but he really had no way to deal with them.
He twitched his lips, forced a smile, nodded, and said, "Then I'll try it. You guys should eat too. Don't just watch me eat."
As he said this, he actually picked up the chopsticks and tasted the food in the bowl. The moment the food entered his mouth, he was stunned. The food here tasted really good. It was something he had never eaten before, and it was even better than the food in the imperial kitchen.
Prince Huai'an became even angrier. If the restaurant wasn't burned down, Murong Li and the others would make a fortune in the future.
He ate with gritted teeth, thinking to himself that if he didn't burn it down today, he would burn it down one day.
No, no, no, the restaurant still cannot be burned down. He has to endure it for another month. When he succeeds, the restaurant will be his, and he will be the one who makes a fortune in the future.
Thinking of this, the depression in my heart finally dissipated a lot, and my face looked better.
The people present saw that he was eating with an astonished look on his face, and thought that he must be as shocked as they were, eating such delicious food for the first time.
So everyone picked up the wine and toasted King Huai'an. King Huai'an couldn't refuse, so he drank with them one by one.
This is a good opportunity to build relationships with people in the Ministry of War. I never had the chance before.
Murong Li also came in and had a drink with everyone. He also toasted King Huai'an with a glass of wine. Then King Huai'an got a little drunk. Murong Li then smiled and left the private room to look for Su Yue.
Su Yue's private room was also served with food and wine. She was eating alone at the moment. When she saw Murong Li come in, she put down her bowl and chopsticks and asked, "Do you want to eat first or what?"
Murong Li put down the wine glass in his hand and sat next to her. He picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of food and ate it: "Let's eat first. Everything will be fine now."
Prince Huai'an has been brought to the fifth floor, and he still wants to open a restaurant?
Even if he was given the chance to burn, he wouldn't dare to do so. He couldn't possibly burn himself to death here.
Su Yue nodded, and the two began to eat. Today's meals were all made with ingredients from her space, so of course they tasted delicious.
In the afternoon, all officials had to go to work. After dinner, everyone left one after another. Prince Huai'an was helped downstairs by Murong Li and handed over to the servant of Prince Huai'an's mansion. As for Xiao Anzi, he didn't go to the Imperial Hospital at all. When he saw Prince Huai'an went up to the fifth floor, he came back.
Only the guests on the first, second and third floors were still eating, and they left before the end of the afternoon.
After the restaurant was cleaned up, Wang Xing happily came to Murong Li and the others with the account book.
"Your Majesty, Princess, please look."
Murong Li handed the account book to Su Yue. Su Yue took a look and found that except for the invited officials, all other guests who came to dine today were charged according to the price, and the income was 5,000 taels.
"It really is making a fortune!"
Su Yue smiled with her eyes curved. She said that people in the capital were rich and there was no need to advertise. Once the invitations were sent out, people in the capital would see so many officials coming to congratulate them, and out of curiosity, they would come into the restaurant to take a look.
Just look and taste it, and you will know.
"Everyone has worked hard today. I'll give each of you ten taels of silver."
Today, the chefs and waiters in the restaurant are all exhausted as dogs. She can see it all, so she must give them this reward so that they will be more motivated in the future.
When everyone knew this, they all smiled happily.
For safety reasons, Su Yue and Murong Li had dinner in a restaurant that night, and it was not until very late that they took a carriage back to Prince Li's Mansion.
When the carriage turned into an alley, which was a shortcut, suddenly more than a dozen men in black jumped out from both sides and rushed towards the carriage they were riding in without saying a word.
"Yue'er, just sit still and wait for me to deal with them."
Murong Li patted Su Yue, flew out of the carriage, drew a soft weapon from his waist, and started fighting with the dozen or so men in black.
The coachman, however, was guarding the carriage closely, fearing that someone would attack Su Yue.
Su Ye also watched the fighting scene intently. The dozen or so men in black were very skilled in martial arts, but they could not last more than a few rounds under Murong Li. In less than half an incense stick of time, the dozen or so men in black were wiped out by Murong Li, and not a single one was left alive.
Even if they left them alive, they couldn't get any information out of them. They also knew who sent these people. They were either from the four major families or from Huai'an Mansion.
These people were exactly those sent by King Huai'an. After he returned, he fell asleep and when he woke up, it was already dark. He was also scolded by Princess Huai'an. He was so angry that he learned that Murong Li and the other man had not returned to the palace so late, so he immediately sent people to intercept and kill them.
However, he waited and waited but no one came back to report to him. He sent people to check. When the inspectors saw dead bodies all over the ground, they immediately went back to report to him, which made him so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas almost ascended to heaven.
He still faced Murong Li head-on, as a test of his strength, but he didn't expect Murong Li to be so strong.
These assassins were carefully trained by him and were considered top-notch masters in the martial arts world. Yet, they died under Murong Li's sword, which even killed them with one blow.
Although it made him feel painful, King Huai'an was also very glad that he had tried Murong Li's water tonight.
Otherwise, if such a situation had occurred on that day, he would not have had a chance to save himself.
