Chapter 227 Can this filial piety be taken back? (Update 2)

Lu Zexu was shabu-shabu venison. The thinly sliced ​​venison rolled in the red hot oil pot, and when it curled up slightly, he took it out and dipped it lightly in the dipping sauce. It was so delicious.

"Father, do you want to eat with us? Winter is the best time to eat this. Whether it's small green vegetables, venison, or mutton, they are all delicious."

Lu Zexu invited casually. As for fatherly love, he had no expectations when he reconciled with himself.

He didn't even want to be the crown prince anymore, so he didn't care about those cumbersome formalities.

Lu Chengtian wanted to continue scolding this unlucky son, but he saw Lu Zexu eating mutton and venison, and when he got tired of eating, he ate a bite of frozen tofu and small green vegetables, enjoying it so much.

Lu Chengtian walked over knowingly and sat directly at the dining table.

Fulu was naturally observant and had already prepared the sauce himself and served the dishes and chopsticks.

Lu Chengtian followed suit, and after taking a bite of mutton, his eyes suddenly lit up and he picked up his chopsticks more frequently.

It was delicious!

The venison was spicy and the mutton was tender, and the green vegetables were even more appetizing with the spicy taste.

It was so cold in winter, and this warm hot pot was really perfect.

The two of them cleared all the dishes on the table, and in the end they were scrambling to eat.

Seeing the last piece of mutton, Lu Chengtian's chopsticks flew out quickly, "I am your father. As a son, you should be filial and give this piece of mutton to me."

Lu Zexu's movement of taking out the chopsticks was not slow at all, "Father is so old, and he just ate so much. I am worried that you will hurt your stomach by eating too much. Let me eliminate this sin for you!"

Seeing that the last piece of mutton was about to fall into Lu Zexu's chopsticks, Lu Chengtian became anxious, "You are so brave!" "

Really? I think I'm not daring enough, otherwise I wouldn't even dare to go to the disaster relief department and have to stay in the East Palace."

Lu Zexu was not afraid. He successfully put the mutton slices into the hot pot.

Lu Chengtian was determined to grab the mutton even if it was already in the pot.

"Didn't you stay in the capital to get food and medicine?"

Lu Zexu raised his eyes and looked over. "Since father knows everything, don't worry about the items in your private storehouse. In the current situation, food and medicine are not that easy to get."

Lu Chengtian slapped the mutton with his chopsticks, and the cooked mutton went into Lu Zexu's mouth.

Lu Chengtian was so angry. He lost the battle for mutton!

Bang -

he slammed the chopsticks directly onto the dining table.

Because of the great force, the small plates on the table were shaken and jumped up.

"I told you to choose whatever you want from the private warehouse, but I didn't tell you to empty it all?" Lu Chengtian finally remembered the purpose of his trip. Lu Zexu

took a sip of sour plum soup and looked at him innocently, "But father didn't say that you can't move everything away, did you?"

"Father only told me to choose whatever I want, so I chose all the items in the private warehouse."

Lu Chengtian: "..."

Even angrier!

He took a deep breath, "From those treasures in my private warehouse, just take out two or three of them, it would be enough for you to raise food and medicine. You moved them all away. Are you trying to abuse the power for personal gain and embezzle from it?"

Lu Zexu looked at him in surprise, as if to say, you can even ask such a question, do you think it's appropriate?

"Even if there is food in the capital right now, it is only sporadic. It is impossible to buy large quantities. Your Majesty must know this, right?"

Lu Chengtian snorted. "I heard that you have raised 2,000 shi of food and thousands of kilograms of medicinal materials for the second and third sons."

"Your Majesty's information is still so accurate." Lu Zexu sneered. "All those treasures of your Majesty have been exchanged for food. In the current situation, how can we exchange them for food without spending some money?"

Lu Chengtian naturally understood the truth, but he could not find any clues. These food and medicinal materials seemed to appear out of thin air.

"Where did you collect the food and medicine?"

Lu Zexu said nonchalantly without changing his expression, "If your son says that it was given by the immortals because they appreciated your diligence and love for the people, and could not bear to see hundreds of thousands of people in four states and counties die, would you believe it?"

Lu Chengtian's face tightened and he became serious in an instant. The legend of Bai Ze Hui Shi was once recorded in the royal secret files.

When Daliang was established, it was because of the help of Bai Ze Rui Beast that the ancestors of the Lu family ended the chaos and established Daliang.

This is something that all the emperors knew, but not everyone believed it.

Lu Chengtian didn't believe it before, but now, he has to believe it.

"Is it really a gift from the immortals?" His voice was trembling and he was very nervous.

"Oh, actually it's not a gift, but a barter. The immortal gave food and medicine, and I gave it from my father's private treasury."

Lu Zexu said casually, not taking it seriously.

However, Lu Chengtian was very excited, "Great! With the help of the immortal, Daliang will surely prosper!"

Lu Zexu glanced at him and said slowly, "That's not necessarily true. After all, the immortal is grateful that your father is a wise ruler who works hard and loves the people, so he gave us food and help."

"If your father is not a wise ruler in the future, or if the next emperor is not a wise ruler, then the immortal will definitely not help our Daliang anymore."

Lu Zexu took the opportunity to say something private, "Father, I am not someone who can endure hardships. Moreover, I am weak and sickly, and I can't endure the hardships of the morning court every day, let alone reviewing memorials and handling government affairs every day."

"So, for the sake of the longevity of Daliang, the position of crown prince, father, please be cautious!"

Lu Chengtian looked solemn, "Indeed, you should be cautious."

Lu Zexu was delighted. Is his dream finally going to come true?

Can he really travel the world with a sword?

Lu Zexu was so happy that he immediately took out two bags of hot pot base, "Father, eating hot pot in winter will indeed improve your appetite. This is the base. You can give it to the kitchen, one bag at a time, and you can eat it twice."

Lu Chengtian immediately laughed out loud, "Don't worry, I don't want to change the crown prince. You don't have to be so trembling and eager to be filial to me!"

Lu Zexu's face froze, and he immediately withdrew the hand that was delivering the hot pot base.
