As soon as Zhao Mengqi's carriage approached Fengle Tower, someone came to pick him up. After a brief negotiation, he led the carriage into the garden of Fengle Tower through a remote side door.
This Fengle Building is not just a building, it is actually a garden. The garden has a quiet environment and is full of terraces. The moon pool made of stone and bricks, towering swings, strange and rugged rockeries, and colorful flowers and trees make people feel more relaxed. Feeling relaxed and happy.
Without passing through the foyer, he went directly through the special passage and then arrived at an extremely elegant and luxurious private room on the third floor.
The marriage officer in civilian clothes came to pay his respects, "I humbly welcome His Highness to you. I wonder if His Highness has any requirements for the banquet?"
Once in this private room, there is no need to cover up. It turns out that the Imperial City Secretary is also one of the escorts for King Zhong's trip. If he pretends not to know, he is deceiving himself.
"You can arrange your meals as you like. Xiao Wang just came to eat. Do you think you are being arrogant? Or do you look down on Xiao Wang?"
Zhao Mengqi was a little aggressive as soon as he opened his mouth, which made the marriage officer almost unable to resist.
"Your Highness, I forgive you. It's not because Gu Tidian was careless. He is really busy with official duties and can't get away for the moment. I guess he is already on his way back. I have to ask him to remind me of his humble duty."
Zhao Mengqi took a deep look at the marriage officer and said meaningfully, "I hope you can satisfy me with this meal!"
"Your Highness, please wait a moment. I will do my best in this humble position." The marriage officer respectfully saluted, but his heart was tingling, and he hurriedly retreated.
It's not that Zhao Mengqi doesn't understand the principles of corporal courtesy, but the only thing he can rely on now is his identity as the crown prince. Maximizing this identity to create pressure on the other party should be the most effective way in an emergency.
It's just that Gu Tidian's ability to withstand stress is obviously relatively strong. Half an hour later, Zhao Mengqi has already eaten and no one has come.
In the whole room, Wu Qiong was the only one who kept eating, and the pile of empty dishes in front of him was almost burying others.
At first, this guy was very calm and restrained. He would eat whatever was put on the table.
He didn't know what to watch or not. As long as he could eat it, they all went into his stomach one by one. He didn't even notice the weird look on Chang Geng's and his others' faces.
This kid ate very quickly, but he ate very cleanly, and the plate was as good as new.
The high-end banquets of the Song Dynasty adopted a separate banquet system, which focused on a wide variety of dishes and a small amount of each portion, usually only one or two mouthfuls for each person.
Zhao Mengqi felt that the too exquisite food was not suitable for Wu Qiong, so he had some large portions of meat specially served to him.
Finally, he was satisfied with the meal, but when the others put down their chopsticks after eating, he saw that there were still a lot of uneaten food on other people's desks. He thought that the leftovers were a sin, so he moved them all to his own desk and worked hard. .
Did this guy eat as much as a dozen people?
This was an eye-opener for Zhao Mengqi, who pretended to be solemn and said, "Wu Qiong, with your appetite, I have to reconsider whether I can afford to feed you..."
Wu Qiong was shocked when he heard this. He quickly raised his head and hurriedly swallowed the food in his mouth. He said anxiously, "Lang Jun, don't... I don't have to eat so much every meal. I haven't been hungry for a long time. Besides, Even though I eat a lot and am strong enough to work, I will never let you lose money."
"Really, how big is it?" Zhao Mengqi looked thoughtful.
Wu Qiong looked around and searched around in the elegant room. When he saw a bronze tripod placed in the entrance hall, he walked over and without saying a word, he grabbed the tripod's ear with one hand and with a little luck, he picked it up. , lift, and lift upside down above your head.
Oops!
The whole room was stunned.
This bronze tripod is not very big, but it weighs at least two to three hundred kilograms.
When it comes to lifting it up, Chang Geng and Zeng Ba should be able to do it, but they need both hands, and it will never be so easy.
"Oops! Put it down, put it down quickly! Put it down! Don't smash the floor through! You are such a bull, how could you be so reckless!"
Huang Gou woke up and hurriedly screamed, fearing that Wu Qiong would make a mistake and poke out a big trap.
"Oh...I'll let it go now." This kid was still able to speak.
Seeing Wu Qiong steadily put the tripod back to its original place, Zhao Mengqi felt that he had really found a treasure.
This is a normal world, and there are no immortal cultivators. There is no one who can destroy mountains with one sword or overwhelm cities with one punch.
In joy, on a whim, Zhao Mengqi also stood up and walked to the side of the bronze tripod, walked around in a circle, and then put his hands on the ears of the two tripods, as if he wanted to give it a try.
"Alang, don't dare to mess around, don't hurt yourself!" Huang Gou dissuaded him in a panic.
Chang Geng, Zeng Ba and others were not nervous at all. They just felt that His Highness was just trying to understand how he could be hurt.
As for His Highness's thin body, although it looks like he has gained a lot of weight compared to a month ago, it is impossible for him to move the bronze tripod even a little bit.
But at this time, Zhao Mengqi took a long breath, stretched his waist and legs, and actually lifted the bronze tripod!
Chang Geng and the others' eyes fell to the ground. They thought they were dreaming and even raised their hands to slap themselves.
"Snapped!"
The bronze tripod was less than half a foot off the ground and fell back again, causing a loud noise on the floor.
"Huh..." Zhao Mengqi waved his hands and chuckled, "It really has some weight."
Chang Geng and his subordinates looked at him as if they were looking at a monster, and they were not even as shocked as Wu Qiong just now.
Wu Qiong had a dull look on his face. He looked at Zhao Mengqi and then at the bronze tripod. He began to seriously doubt that he had lost his pride in his own strength as he grew up in life. It turns out that this little strength is nothing special. This man only weighs more than eighty pounds. Bar……
At this time, the marriage officer hurried in with someone, looking anxious, "What happened? Your Highness is in serious trouble..."
The commotion just now was not small. Thinking that the Crown Prince was inside, if something happened, everyone in the Imperial City Department would not end well.
"Don't panic, it's okay. Xiao Wang is fine." Zhao Mengqi rubbed his arms. Just now, he felt that his strength was enough, but his body couldn't hold it anymore, so he didn't force himself to continue.
Seeing that he was safe and sound, the marriage officer was relieved, waved his subordinates away, and said with lingering fear, "As long as nothing happens, it will be fine. Is Your Highness satisfied with the banquet?"
"The taste is okay, but..." Zhao Mengqi grinned, looking a little forbidding.
The marriage officer's heart trembled, and he hurriedly said, "Your Highness, could you please move to the tea room, I have prepared some fragrant tea for you."
Oh, finally willing to show up.
Zhao Mengqi smiled secretly, knowing that he had achieved half of his goal, "Lead the way."
With only Huang Gou accompanying him, Zhao Mengqi followed the marriage officer out of Shuiyunjian.
