Two hours later, under Lai Siyu's knife, the tiger banquet made its grand debut.
Without her instructions, the soldiers, led by Yue Daikui and Subuqi, set up the dining area. Each of them held a large bowl and stared at Lai Siyu with burning eyes.
If you don't eat soon, I'll be full of saliva.
Even the unlucky prince looked at Lai Siyu with anticipation.
His head had been wrapped like a dumpling by the military doctor, leaving only seven holes outside.
Fried lion's head, tiger bone soup, stir-fried tiger meat, roasted tiger legs, stir-fried tiger offal, braised tiger intestines, boiling meat slices, cumin tiger ribs, cold-mixed tiger heart and tongue, and twice-cooked pork...
At Lai Siyu's signal, Subuqi took a large spoon and banged on the pot. "Everyone, dinner is ready! Before we start, please give the host a word!"
"Master, please give us a lecture!" Hundreds of people shouted in unison, with great momentum!
Lai Siyu stretched out her hands and pressed them lightly, looking very proud.
"Everyone, since you have a request, I will say a few words. From today on, after we have eaten this meal together, we are all one family! Also, I don't care who you were soldiers of or who you were loyal to before. From today on, you can only be loyal to me.
I think the scenery here is pretty good, and the mountain is quite steep. From today on, this mountain belongs to the Lai family, and we will rule it as kings!"
"Your Majesty is wise!" Subuqi turned over and knelt down. Yue Daikui was so angry that his teeth were itching. Damn, this flattery is so good!
"Your Majesty is wise!" Yue Daikui also knelt down quickly.
"Your Majesty is wise!" Hundreds of people knelt at the same time.
"Okay, okay! Everyone get up and have dinner. You'll have more energy to work after eating!" Lai Siyu waved his hand, and the soldiers quickly gathered around the stove in an orderly manner.
In the time it took to eat a meal, they turned from soldiers into bandits.
The unlucky prince didn't know whether he should be happy or worried. He was happy that Xiao Hanshan's people were tricked, but he was worried that the Wei Dynasty would have one more vicious bandit.
But should he be worried about the Wei Dynasty? After his elder brother, the crown prince, ascended the throne, would he still have a place?
Hey! I'm so hungry. Everyone else is happily eating and drinking, but why is no one paying attention to me?
He wanted to eat too! He swallowed his saliva, struggling with whether he should put aside his dignity as a prince and ask that woman for food.
If he is not worried about the Wei Dynasty, why does he need dignity?
Just as he was thinking about it, Lai Siyu walked up to him with a big bowl of tiger bone soup.
"Are you hungry?" Lai Siyu asked softly.
The unlucky prince nodded vigorously, saying, "You have some conscience."
"Once you eat my things, you become mine. Do you dare to eat them?" Lai Siyu asked with a smile.
Uh~ this is a problem, he is a prince.
Don’t sell yourself out for a meal!
Be hardened, grit your teeth, close your eyes and turn your head away.
I can bear it!
"Hey, you're quite courageous!" Lai Siyu praised, "Yue Daikui, come here."
Upon hearing this, Yue Daikui immediately trotted up, turning back and looking at Su Buqi proudly.
You see, when something big happens, the first person the master thinks of is me, Yue Daikui.
He didn't realize at all that as a great general, his role change was too fast and too natural.
Is it about this meal?
This tiger meat feast was the most delicious delicacy he had ever tasted in his life.
"My king, what orders do you have for my subordinates?" Yue Daikui asked with a servile smile on his face.
"It's nothing. Just tell me about your situation. Also, why are you looking for him?" Lai Siyu asked while drinking tiger bone soup.
"Reporting to the king, I was originally a second-rank Dragon and Tiger General of the Wei Dynasty. The Imperial Preceptor, Lord Xiao Hanshan, sent me with elite troops to search for King Cheng Hui and bring him back to the imperial capital alive."
"Oh, so that's how it is. What Great Wei Dynasty? A second-rank Dragon and Tiger General has only a few hundred men under his command. Don't tell me your country's army doesn't exceed 10,000 people. What kind of country is this? It's just like a county town." Lai Siyu muttered.
The unlucky prince couldn't stand it anymore and immediately yelled, "Don't you know not to talk nonsense? Our Great Wei Dynasty is the largest country on this continent!"
Looking at the unlucky prince who was furious, Lai Siyu cast a doubtful look at Yue Daikui.
Yue Daikui immediately explained: "Hehe, what the prince said is true. Our Great Wei Dynasty is indeed the largest country in the entire continent. Our country has more than one million mercenaries, and I have 100,000 troops under my command.
However, Lord Xiao requested that this mission be conducted in a low-key manner and no mistakes be allowed, so I personally led three hundred elite soldiers to carry out the mission in secret."
Lai Siyu showed a look of astonishment, and then continued to ask: "Then how did you find him?"
"This is the fate between me and my master. I happened to find the prince..." Yue Daikui said flatteringly.
Lai Siyu shook her head: "Speak properly!"
"Yes, I have researched the locations where the prince disappeared. After careful consideration, I have finally identified several places where he is most likely to have fled. Lord Xiao has already sent people to search the area within a hundred miles of where the prince disappeared, so there are not many suspicious locations left... I led my men to check each suspicious location one by one, and unexpectedly found the prince at the first suspicious location..."
"How much do you know about Xiao Hanshan? Why did he kidnap him?" Lai Siyu pointed at the unlucky prince and asked.
"Lord Xiao is a popular figure in the court, deeply trusted by the Emperor and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and he also has a good relationship with the Prince. As for the kidnapping you mentioned, I have no idea.
