Liu Tan looked at the dagger in his hand, then at the people around him who were looking at him as if he were a criminal. He couldn't help but sigh, then kicked Wei Deng who was trying to hold back his laughter.
Wei Deng was kicked unexpectedly. He looked up and saw his own prince looking at him unkindly. Suddenly, an idea came to him: "I'll go, I'll go."
Liu Tan turned to look at the laughing Liu Che, sighed, and said, "If your son commits a crime and your father doesn't report it to the authorities, you're actually protecting him. What are you so happy about?"
Liu Che didn't buy it and slowly put the glutinous rice cake and barbecue that Liu Tan had just cut into his mouth.
Well, the fat from the mutton seeped into the glutinous rice cake, mixed with the unique glutinous rice aroma of the glutinous rice cake, plus the crispy skin that was baked. The taste was really good. Even Liu Che, who was used to eating good food, couldn't help but nod his head repeatedly.
I took another sip of the mutton soup and was surprised to find that it was not very smelly and tasted good.
The old man next to them saw that Liu Che and Liu Tan, father and son, were still calm and unhurried, so he gave the middle-aged man a look.
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, then nodded immediately and ran to the bewildered shop owner and whispered, "Judging from the way these father and son seem so confident, they must be either rich or powerful. Hurry and find your daughter. Don't really call in the Wuhou Guards. If they do, not only will these two not be punished, but your family will probably be in trouble."
The shop owner's face turned pale, and he secretly groaned inwardly, wondering if the tastes of the rich and powerful these days are so special? They actually come to Xishi to eat!
But before he could go out to look for her, the young lady had already arrived with a team of Wuhou Guards.
Wei Deng, who had been waiting on the side, coughed lightly and walked over. Wu Houwei was slightly stunned when he saw him. He felt that he looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him.
But Wei Deng was dressed in an unusual manner, so Wu Houwei asked cautiously, "Young Master, someone reported that you and your men were hiding sharp weapons. Is that true?"
Wei Deng said nothing, but directly showed a black token and said, "The person sitting inside is my master."
Wu Houwei hesitated for a moment, took it and carefully examined it before returning it to Wei Deng, bowing and saying, "Greetings, Jun Hou!"
At this time, many people who were watching the fun had gathered around. They were shocked at first when they saw Wu Houwei saluting, and then they couldn't help whispering when they heard Wu Houwei call Wei Deng "Jun Hou".
Wei Deng raised his hand and said, "It's all a misunderstanding, go ahead."
Wu Houwei turned around and left, not even daring to look at the barbecue stall.
There are quite a few military marquises in Shuofang City, but those of this age are rare.
Just now, Wu Houwei felt that Wei Deng looked familiar because he was somewhat similar to Wei Buzhi. Now he understood after connecting the dots.
And who else could the Wei family's sons call him "master"? I can't afford to offend him, so leave now!
The young lady who had just gone to report to the police was now dumbfounded. She was pulled aside by her father, with an anxious look on her face, as if she wanted to hit him but was reluctant to do so.
Wei Deng came back and sat down and said, "Master, young master, everything is fine now."
Liu Tan had been paying attention to that side just now. He nodded, then turned around and found that his father had taken advantage of this time to eat half a piece of glutinous rice cake barbecue!
You know, the owner of this shop is quite honest. Each one of them is two palms long. This thing is made of glutinous rice and meat, which is very difficult to digest. Liu Tan originally wanted to let Liu Che eat a few pieces and forget about it, but he ended up like this when he wasn't paying attention. He immediately straightened his body and said in shock: "You... please restrain yourself!"
Is this stuff really that delicious? You're not afraid of feeling sick after eating so much in one go! If you don't know, you'd think I'm abusing my dad!
Liu Tan forcibly resisted the urge to snatch the item. Just as he was about to continue, he saw the shop owner pulling the bewildered young woman over to apologize, nodding and saying, "It's my fault for not recognizing a great person. Please don't take it personally."
Liu Tan said gently, "It's okay. Don't blame her. She did nothing wrong. If everyone could abide by the law like she did, peace and order would be just around the corner."
"That's right." Liu Che seemed to be satisfied with his meal. He raised his hand and slapped a silver pill on the table and said, "This is a reward for her."
The shop owner's eyes widened. He had never seen silver in his life.
Or perhaps most people had never seen silver before, so when they saw such a large silver ball, they immediately waved their hands in panic and said, "No, no, no, we can't accept this."
Liu Tan stood up and said, "Take it. The meal money is included in it."
He turned to look at Liu Che: "Father, there are still many places you haven't visited, are you still going to visit?"
Liu Che stood up and said, "Let's continue watching!"
Liu Tan certainly had no objection, and he even felt a little regretful that he had forgotten to arrange a tour of Shuofang City for Liu Che.
However, Shuofang City has only recently gained some popularity and is certainly not as prosperous and interesting as Chang'an, so he ignored it.
Liu Tan had only walked a few steps behind Liu Che when he noticed that he suddenly stopped. He looked up and saw Lu Xuan walking towards him.
Liu Tan reflexively glanced at his father, and sure enough, he saw that Liu Che had narrowed his eyes slightly.
Liu Tan's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly stepped forward and asked, "What did you buy?"
Lu Xuan nodded to Liu Che and cleverly called out, "Lord," just like Wei Deng.
He originally wanted to call him uncle, but although Liu Che's expression at this time seemed to be difficult to tell, he could tell that he was definitely not happy.
Even if Liu Che didn't want to see Lu Xuan, he wouldn't embarrass him in public. He nodded and said, "Have you been here before?"
Lu Xuan said honestly, "I've been here once, but at that time Shuofang City had just been built, and there weren't that many people in the West Market. Now it's much better than before."
Liu Che nodded and said nothing. Liu Tan took the opportunity to ask, "What are you holding in your hand?"
Lu Xuan smiled and said, "I just saw someone selling pine nut candy. I thought it looked interesting, so I bought some for you to try."
Liu Che was disdainful. His son's best skill was making sugar, which he made exquisitely, beautifully and deliciously. How could the sugar here compare to that?
Then he saw his son take a candy from the bag with great interest, put it in his mouth, and said, "It tastes good, Dad, want to try it too?"
Liu Che had no choice but to take the bag from Liu Tan's hand and randomly picked one to taste. The taste was not good, but it was not sweet enough either. Especially when he saw his son's smiling face, he didn't think it was delicious at all.
He threw the bag to Weiden and said, "Let's go and continue looking."
Liu Tan nodded and was about to raise his foot when he heard someone behind him shout, "Wait."
He turned around and found that it was the young lady with a strong sense of justice. Her face was slightly red. She held a rattan box in her hand and handed it to him, saying, "I'm so sorry for what happened just now. This is for you."
Liu Tan was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "It's okay, I told you you did nothing wrong."
The young lady glanced at Lu Xuan and handed him the rattan box, saying, "You are a good person."
Liu Tan was stunned for a moment. What was going on? Was he given the nice guy card?
Lu Xuan took the rattan box and said gently, "Since it's a kind gesture from someone, just accept it."
Liu Tan didn't dwell on it too much and said, "Thank you very much."
Then he heard the young lady say seriously: "Although... although it's not illegal for you to bring these, the capital is still very safe. It's better not to bring them. It's easy to hurt people."
Liu Tan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Okay, I'll remember it."
The young lady reluctantly watched them leave. The old man came over and said with a smile, "Girl, if you like it, ask your father to ask."
The young lady said somewhat disappointedly: "No need, I look so strange, I am not worthy of him."
She looks like her father, which is very different from the young lady from the Central Plains.
However, this young man's friend also looks like a foreigner. The young man gets along well with him, which shows that he is a good person. It's a pity that their identities are different.
The young lady glanced at Liu Tan's back again, then turned around and continued to help her father.
No matter what, this young man is a benefactor of her family. With the silver pill, their family can rent a shop.
Lu Xuan, who was walking in front, glanced back and said with a smile, "Ah Tan is really popular."
Liu Tan didn't know if it was an illusion, but he seemed to smell a faint sour smell. He turned his head to look at Lu Xuan and said, "I've also heard that several Xiongnu princesses are very fond of you."
Well, this information was sent back by the people he sent to the Xiongnu as undercover agents. Those people had finally gained some status with Liu Tan's support, but they didn't know what news was important and what was not, so they had to send it all back.
Liu Tan didn't care at the time. Considering Lu Xuan's age and appearance, coupled with his social status, it was normal for him to be noticed by others.
Of course, even if you don't care about it, it's fun to talk about it occasionally.
Lu Xuan seemed to have his IQ slashed by a point: "That's not as good as Ah Tan being able to attract the admiration of young ladies just by walking around casually."
Liu Tan squinted at him and said, "You'll get the same effect if you take a walk around Wusun City!"
Lu Xuan was about to say something when he suddenly stopped: "Your Majesty...where is the Master?"
When Liu Tan turned around, he didn't see Liu Che and was suddenly panicked. Did he lose his father?
The two men looked around before they saw Liu Che walking slowly behind them.
Liu Che came over, glanced at them nonchalantly, and asked, "Have you had enough of the quarrel?"
Liu Tan and Lu Xuan: ...
