Chapter 538 Depressed Li King

If King Liang repeatedly submitted memorials, the emperor would think that he had suffered hysteria due to continuous loss of his son and was overly sad.

But King Zhuang is different. The emperor knows this son. He is tough, tolerant and cunning. Such a person has weak emotions. In addition, he has many sons and more than a dozen concubines. However, Princess Zhuang is not in good health and only gave birth to Huangfu Wei, the legitimate son.

Thinking about how many years he has been in the fiefdom, he still worked hard to take down King Liang, who had been the crown prince for more than 40 years, and replaced him with strategies, scheming and means.

In addition, Lao Wu is the most unruly person. Although he did ask for an imperial edict to return to Beijing this time, who knows if it would be like King Zhuang said that people had been in the capital long ago?

Of course, this is unlikely, after all, he believed in his secret guard's ability. In addition, he also knew that not only King Zhuang, but even King Li were searching for traces of King Cheng and his wife in the capital. So many people had not found it, it was very likely that they were searching for non-existent at all.

But even if there is only a little bit of suspicion, it will be confirmed!

What happened since the palace banquet was the matter between the third and the fifth ones. He originally wanted to send King Liang to the place, but later he thought that King Liang was a thing that was not enough to make trouble, and he lived a mess. He would rather let him continue to live a drunken life and die in the woods every day.

The only prince who is not involved in the capital is Lao Jiu, and sending Lao Jiu is the most suitable one.

So King Li received the order and went out of the city to welcome him.

King Li was helpless. The news from the fifth brother said that it would be possible to arrive tomorrow. The father asked him to go out to greet him this afternoon. What can he do? He can only go out of the city to greet him!

Unexpectedly, after a welcome, I met twenty miles and walked to a teahouse, it was almost dark.

Fortunately, they were out of the city by carriage, and if they were just walking, their legs would have to be broken. Looking at the quiet official road ahead, only the cool breeze blew, Li Wang was so depressed.

This time, the officials accompanying the Ministry of Rites were the left and right assistant ministers, and the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites came over to ask King Li: "Your Highness, depending on the situation, Your Highness's car has not arrived yet. Should we continue to move forward? Or should we rest on the spot? Or, go back to the city first?"

If we continue to move forward, it will be dark, not to mention that there is no place for temporary rest like the teahouse. In addition, they came to welcome him, and King Li did not have many guards. As a prince, he was very important. If there was any danger, no one here would be able to escape!

King Li was full of anger. If the third brother hadn't told the old man that those who had nothing to do in front of his father every day and those who had memorials were sent to the palace for no money, which made his father suspicious, how could he have run so far to welcome him?

He was tired and hungry here, and he ate the dust. The third brother was happy to eat delicious food and drink in his mansion. Just thinking about it makes me feel unbalanced.

King Li said angrily: "Now when you go back, the city gate is closed, so you can rest on the spot!"

I originally thought that I could see the King Cheng’s carriage after twenty miles, but now I don’t even have a shadow. Keep moving forward, maybe how far I have to go. This is the only way to enter Beijing, so I’m just waiting here.

In addition, they went out in the middle of the afternoon and stopped and had already passed the dinner time. They were tired and hungry, so they had to eat something to fill their stomachs and take a break.

King Li ordered that everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It was not tiring to ride a horse while sitting in the carriage, but it was tiring to sit for so long.

A large group of luxuriously dressed and seemingly extraordinary people sat in the teahouse, which scared the teahouse owner to fear.

He only has three small houses and one friend. He usually only receives passers-by who are thirsty or hungry. After all, this place is not very far from the capital.

But now there are a group of noble people here, who need to eat, drink, drink, and food. The owner of the teahouse is almost crying. He has never heard of the dishes ordered by these noble people. He only has coarse food here.

Seeing the boss standing there stupidly, King Li frowned: "Can't you go down and prepare?"

The boss knelt down with a pounce and said tremblingly: "Niqi, distinguished guest, we don't have the things you said here!"

They usually only entertain ordinary guests from the past. Those people pass by just to fill their stomachs. If they really want to eat well, there are restaurants in the capital, and they will not like this small and simple teahouse.

King Li looked at the boss's commoner, then looked at the simple environment, and asked patiently: "Then what do you have here?"

The boss shook his fingers and said, "There are hot tea, cooked beef, pork trotters, white flour steamed buns, and diced radish."

King Li's mouth twitched straight when he heard it.

He has eaten the cooked beef sauce pig's trotters, but the chefs in the house will set them into beautiful flower plates, add different embellishments, and then process them carefully, and then match them with an elegant name.

This is the first time he has heard such a straightforward name.

At this time, he was too hungry and waved his hand and said, "A pot of hot tea on each table, bringing you all the food you can eat here!"

Tea and food were brought over quickly, and these people couldn't wait to pour tea and eat.

But within a moment, there was a burst of "puff", "pah", "pah" and "pah"...

A strange voice came over.

Puff, it’s the one who drank tea, the tea is too hard to drink.

Bah, it’s the one who ate tea. What the hell is this thing so unpalatable?

Vomit is the delicate stomach and delicate nose of those people, and they can't stand such a crude smell.

Even if I'm hungry, I can't stand it.

This shows how exquisite their diet is.

King Li couldn't afford it, and he felt even more resentful.

At this time, he should be eating delicious food in his palace. His favorite concubine was accompanying her, and her cherry lips were singing understanding words...

How could it be in such a shabby teahouse?

It is obviously only more than twenty miles away from the capital, but I can only sleep outside for one night.

The crowd couldn't eat it, so they could only look at the west side. If King Cheng had come early, they might have asked to open the city gate and go back to their own comfort zone.

But when will King Cheng come?

The teahouse was requisitioned, and the teahouse owner dared not object.

But even if the teahouse is all requisitioned, it cannot accommodate so many noble and delicate bodies.

Many people are still sitting in the sheds built outside.

So hungry!

The stomach and intestines who were used to eating delicacies in the mountains and seas were hungry even if they didn't eat it. At this time, it was the hour of Hai. The hungry person called the owner of the teahouse and his friend out of the woodshed and asked him to prepare for food.

The owner of the teahouse was almost crying. He only had these things here, and it was hard for a good cook to cook without rice.
