Chapter 60 Ping An Building
After changing his clothes, Zhongli and Lu Yuan walked out of the room.
Looking at the sun hanging high in the sky, Zhongli felt refreshed and felt so relaxed from childhood to adulthood.
"Young Master, the envoy sent by the second prince has been waiting in the main hall for a long time." A servant came over to report to Zhongli.
Zhongli followed the servant to the main hall, and saw He Mu sitting in the main hall drinking tea. When he saw Zhongli, he immediately stood up to salute.
"I will meet the little prime minister at the end."
"President He is polite, please sit down." Zhongli said with a smile, "President He is here today, what's the point of doing?"
"At the end, we will come to discuss with the young prime minister under the order of the second prince. After yesterday's birthday party, Your Highness feels that the time is almost ripe and can start to conquer the power of the court and add a point to the capture of the reserve." He Mu said.
Zhongli nodded.
After yesterday's battle, the prince's reputation must have dropped a lot. Many people in the court probably need to rethink which side should they support.
Moreover, there were many people who were swaying, so they could take this opportunity to test their attitude.
"You go back and tell Your Highness that I will try my best to get people I know to help you." Zhong Li said slowly with a calm expression.
He Mu frowned, and this reply made him not very satisfied.
"Little Prime Minister, Your Highness means that you will go to win over the officials from the prince. Even if you cannot win over, you will force them to give up some things..."
Zhongli stared at He Mu and said, "Mr. He can just reply to Your Highness as I said. I have my own measure of how to do it."
He Mu looked embarrassed and said nothing more. He bowed and said goodbye.
Lu Yuan stood beside Zhongli with frown. The second prince was like this to make the young master work hard for him.
"Hey, the second prince wants me to work hard for him now, but I also want to fight for some benefits for myself." Zhongli sneered and took Lu Yuan and Ling Xi out of the door.
"Arrange someone to ask where Zhao An and the others are." Zhongli ordered his guards.
Zhao An likes socializing on weekdays, and after suffering such shame the day before yesterday, he must be unable to sit still.
Soon, the guards sent back news that Zhao An and the children of officials gathered in a restaurant in the east of the city.
"Hehe, although Mr. Zhao did not invite me, we might as well come here without invitation this time. We will come here for a while." Zhongli laughed and led a few people to the east of the city.
Everyone soon arrived at the restaurant where the guards pointed, looked up at the magnificent gatehouse in front of them, and Zhongli chuckled and walked in.
Ping'an Building is also the most prosperous restaurant in the east of the city, but Zhongli knew that this was the Zhao Mang family's property. A small Tongzhi in Donghai City had such a huge industry in the capital. I don't know how much I had greedy for behind my back.
The maid at the door warmly welcomed Zhongli and others and asked where Zhongli was sitting.
Zhongli looked around and gestured to Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan sensed it for a while, rushed to a window on the second floor and pointed.
Zhao An and others gathered in that private room.
"Just choose one next to that room for me." Zhongli said lightly.
"Young Master, the private room on the second floor is exclusive to the VIP guests in this restaurant..." The maid said hesitantly.
Lu Yuan was impatient and directly patted fifty Taoist beads in the maid's hand and illuminated his waist card.
"Now my young master is also a VIP guest, go and arrange it!"
The maid was shocked when she saw the big word "Zhong" on the sign that Lu Yuan showed. She didn't dare to say it anymore and ran to arrange the room quickly.
Zhongli and Lingxi and the two ladies stepped onto the stairs slowly. The stairs under their feet were covered with stones, extremely luxurious. When they stepped on them, the faint Taoist energy flowed into their bodies through their feet.
"The Zhao family is doing a big deal!" Zhongli praised.
Ling Xi and Xiu Qi looked around at the environment in the restaurant, but they were not very interested in it. They prefer to stay in a natural environment.
Walking to the private room of Zhao An and others, Zhongli looked up and saw three big words written on the door of Zhao An’s private room: “Qingyunjian”
"Hehe, does this mean to make a leap of the sky?" Zhongli sneered, turned around and looked at the private room next to him: "Ruyi Pavilion."
He walked in with the two girls. The private room was very large, and the people he brought to sit inside seemed a little empty.
Lu Yuan quickly walked in with a few guards. With Zhongli, they sat down without any restraint.
"Listen to what the next door is saying." Zhongli ordered. The sound insulation effect in the room was very good. His current cultivation level could not be eavesdropped.
Lu Yuan was pursuing his cultivation and listened carefully.
"These guys are discussing the plot against the master here!" Lu Yuan angrily slapped the table after hearing this for a moment.
"Don't be angry. Zhao An suffered such a big loss before, so he naturally had to find a way to take revenge. However, it's still far from being in trouble with his father." Zhongli was calm.
Lu Yuan nodded and agreed with Zhongli's words, but when he heard the other party planning to cause trouble for his master, his anger was still hard to relieve.
"Young Master, are we just listening here?" Lu Yuan asked unwillingly.
"Of course not, but there is no hurry. Since I come here, I have to try the food here. The decoration is so luxurious that I think the dishes will not be too bad, haha." Zhongli said with a smile.
Lu Yuan and the guards around him all laughed. Following Zhongli, they could also benefit from it. They didn't have such treatment in the mansion on weekdays.
"Lingxi, how about going to help me stare at them?" Zhongli took out a piece of spiritual mud from his arms and handed it to Lingxi.
Ling Xi's eyes glowed, and this bad guy finally got it for himself.
After snatching the spiritual mud in Zhongli's hand, Lingxi turned into a wisp of mist and penetrated into Zhao An's room.
Several guards looked at each other. This was the first time they had seen such a method.
Lu Yuan looked calm. Ling Xi used this trick to escape, and it took a lot of trouble to catch her.
Soon, the maids came up with various exquisite dishes. The guards moved their index fingers and wanted to start enjoying them immediately, but when they saw that Zhongli did not move, they had to hold back.
"There are so many people in Zhao An and the others, but it is a bit difficult to subdue them here." Zhong Li muttered softly.
"Hi, what are you afraid of? At worst, I can beat them up!" Lu Yuan didn't care.
Zhongli looked at Lu Yuan. This guy was still as stubborn as ever.
"Let's have dinner first." Zhongli said, picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of fish and put it into his mouth.
The guards smiled happily and started eating.
The food on the table was quickly eaten by everyone. Zhongli sat on the seat and felt that he was still not full. After his body recovered, he seemed to have increased a lot of appetite.
At this moment, a noise suddenly sounded in the next room. Zhongli vaguely heard a few people shouting something loudly, and then heard the sound of hitting the door.
"What happened?" Zhong Li was puzzled, and then he saw a wisp of mist appearing in the house. Then a figure flashed and Ling Xi appeared next to him.
"Haha, those people are too timid! I scared them a little and they were scared!" Ling Xi clapped his hands and said with a big smile.
Zhongli's face turned dark. This little fairy couldn't stand it for a while.
