More or less, the ministers all had a grudge against Su Xian.
But the delicious grilled meat is innocent.
They breathed a sigh of relief and continued to eat meat. Their mouths were full of oil and they had no image.
As for those young men, after being wronged by Su Xian, they were so angry that they secretly clenched their fists and wanted to rush into the pavilion and swell Su Xian's hateful face.
After the anger in their chests subsided a little, they looked at the scene of the ministers devouring the food. They pursed their lips and their stomachs began to growl.
It smells so good!
Although they hate Su Xian, they are still greedy.
In normal times, it would be fine and just walk away, but now they can't just walk away. The golden and crispy meat skewers can only be looked at but not eaten. It is simply a kind of torture for them.
Do you want to follow the plan just now and taste the fragrant barbecue with a critical attitude?
They were silent, making eye contact with each other.
They have always been proud, but they actually disdain to use such high-sounding reasons. Besides, Su Zhe just offended them again.
If you eat Su Zhe's barbecue again, you will be so spineless!
But...it smells really good.
Their stomachs kept protesting and growling, and their mouths were overflowing with saliva, causing them to keep waving their sleeves to wipe away the saliva, looking a little embarrassed.
After some time.
They struggled for a long time and finally made up their minds to give Su Zhe some face -
I reluctantly tasted Su Zhe's barbecue with a critical appetite. Anyway, no matter if it tastes good or not, they will criticize it mercilessly and will never show mercy.
In their view, this is a recognition of Su Zhe. It is true that Su Zhe makes them angry, but it is undeniable that Su Zhe is indeed a person...
However, it was too late.
When they made a decision and looked at the grill not far away, they were all stunned and stood there in a daze, with extremely ugly expressions on their faces.
The grill... was already empty.
All the adult goats have been slaughtered and made into kebabs for everyone to eat.
In other words, there is no food.
"What the hell..."
The feelings in their hearts are complicated and difficult to understand.
Finally, they made up their mind to taste Su Zhe's barbecue with a critical attitude. They couldn't help but taste it, and after tasting it, they were ready to belittle it.
As a result, God was not kind, the barbecue was gone, and the ingredients were gone!
They were collectively dumbfounded and almost went crazy on the spot.
In fact, not to mention them, the ministers who had tasted the delicacy, as well as the eunuchs and maids who were quite lucky, were still unsatisfied. They smashed their mouths and wished they could eat a hundred more skewers!
They are already "eating the marrow and knowing the taste", and the desire in their hearts is far stronger than that of the "youthful and ignorant" young men.
On the other side, the group of wealthy ladies hugged the lamb with one hand and wiped their mouths with a handkerchief. Although they ate slowly, their fighting power was very persistent, and they were the ones who ate the most.
But they still feel it's not enough.
It would be great if there were another batch of sheep... the girls secretly thought.
The little lamb in their arms seemed to have noticed something. It flicked its hooves and struggled violently. It even opened its mouth and shouted: "Hey..."
broken!

The girls were shocked at the same time.
Who said there are no more sheep?
Isn’t that the little lamb in their arms?
They understood something instantly. While comforting the little lamb, they also hurriedly raised their heads and looked around——
Sure enough, those ministers who were still unfinished, as well as the palace maids, eunuchs, even the Emperor and Queen of Chu, as well as the young masters who had not tasted the meat and were extremely eager in their hearts, all looked at it.
Everyone's eyes lit up, and most of them wiped their saliva secretly.
but.
Everyone is not looking at them.
But the little lamb in their arms!
No!
The girls became anxious on the spot and hugged their little lambs tightly. The lambs were so small and cute that they could not be slaughtered and eaten.
"Daughter, it turns out you hid such a little lamb in advance, haha, not bad!"
An old minister looked up to the sky and smiled. It was obvious that he saw his daughter among the girls and the lamb that his daughter had "hidden".
"The adult goat is so delicious, but the meat quality of this newly born lamb is even more amazing... No, I'm rude."
Another minister started wiping his saliva as he spoke.
The ministers became more and more cheerful as they talked, as if they were treating the girls' pets as food.
The girls suddenly became anxious and tried their best to defend themselves.
But their fathers and brothers didn't take it seriously and discussed how to improve the barbecue technology in order to produce more delicious barbecue than before.
what to do?
At the critical moment, the girls all looked at Yang Ruoxian.
Yang Ruoxian is a representative figure in their circle. She is well-known and takes good care of them. It is expected that Sister Yang will definitely help.
But they were disappointed. Yang Ruoxian turned his head and pretended not to see them.
It’s over, what should we do now?
Do you want to watch the cute little lambs being brutally slaughtered by them and then made into kebabs and eaten?
Some girls' eye circles are already red...
At this time, in their desperation, they thought of Su Xian and turned their heads to look at each other, hoping that Su Xian would stand up and say something fair.
However, they also know that there is little hope, because not long ago, they offended Su Xian once, and Su Xian once gave them a cold look...
In their eyes, Su Xian is a big devil and a cruel executioner!
It would be fine if the big devil didn't come to them for revenge, but they ran to look to him, which was a slim hope.
Sure enough, in the pavilion, on the stone bench next to the stone table, Su Xian was sitting there calmly and motionless.
They even turned a blind eye to their looks for help.
It was completely over now... The girls were disheartened and hugged their little lambs tightly. Their hearts were at a loss, and some even cried secretly.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Su Zhe's voice came to his ears:
"Everyone, those lambs are gifts for you ladies. They are not allowed to be slaughtered."
The girls looked up and stared at Su Xian with burning eyes, expressions of disbelief and of course ecstasy... They were saved, they were saved, and the big devil actually spoke for them.
"Besides, the lambs haven't opened yet, so their meat is not delicious, at least not suitable for making barbecue." Su Xian joked.

"I see, let's do this for now. There will be a banquet later. Being able to taste Mr. Su's barbecue is already a worthwhile trip." The queen concluded the matter with a smile.
"..."
When everyone heard this, they immediately gave up the idea of slaughtering the lamb.
Yes, there will be a banquet later, so we can’t eat too much now.
The girls all breathed a sigh of relief, the cute little lamb was finally saved.
After comforting their respective lambs, they all turned their heads to look at Su Xian, with complexity and gratitude in their eyes, and of course more gratitude.
…
After some time.
Everyone set off again.
The Emperor and the Queen of Chu were still riding in the chariot.
The rest of the people, regardless of their superiority or inferiority, all walked.
Su Xian declined the Queen's invitation to accompany him and deliberately stayed at the back of the team. He deliberately kept a distance from the Emperor of Chu to avoid any accidents.
Yang Ruoxian couldn't help but be ecstatic. Regardless of what everyone was doing, she followed directly behind Su Xian. Just now, Su Xian was sitting at the same table with the Emperor and Queen of Chu, which really worried her.
Well now, Su Xian actually declined the Queen's invitation. This shows that Su Xian is still closer to the Yang family...
"Master Su, the next place we are going to is Gaoji Temple."
Yang Ruoxian never forgot his duty as a "guide" and took the initiative to explain to Su Xian.
"Um."
Su Xian nodded calmly.
He knows Gao Qi——
In ancient legends, Gaozi is a goddess specializing in marriage and fertility, which is related to the fertility worship in ancient times. People prayed for marriage and heirs by worshiping Gaozi.
Later, Gaojie evolved into the exclusive god for emperors seeking children.
Its temples are generally built outside the city, so they are also called "suburbs".
Just because the Emperor of Chu wanted to restore the ancient system, he abolished some exclusive royal privileges, such as this suburban temple, where everyone can go to worship.
good!
Sacrifice to Jiaohui is another important activity of Shangji Festival...
Su Xian thought about the Shangji Festival in ancient times, which must be very interesting. At the same time, he walked forward slowly, following each step.
Suddenly, something unexpected happened in front of them, and there was a burst of noise, accompanied by the delicate laughter of a girl and the bleating sound of a young lamb.
Looking up, I saw a group of brightly-dressed girls walking quickly, each holding a lamb. Who were those rich ladies if not them?
"Sister Yang."
They gathered around Yang Ruoxian and wanted to say hello to Su Xian, but they didn't dare. They just kept peeking at him with their big black gem-like eyes.
Their feelings for Su Xian are extremely complicated, but they are more grateful.
Su Xian still walked forward slowly, ignoring them.
"Master Su."
Luo Li was bolder, relying on the fact that she and Su Xian had known each other since they were in the Yang Mansion. She walked to the other side of Su Xian with a smile and said, "Thank you so much, Mr. Su, for your generous action and saving these cute little lambs."
"It's such a small thing, why bother mentioning it again."
Su Xian waved his hand and didn't take it seriously.
When the girls saw this, their hearts warmed up, saying that although this big devil was cruel, he was not actually bad. If it wasn't for the big devil, their pets would have been eaten long ago.
Unexpectedly, Su Xian suddenly stopped, glanced at the lambs in the arms of the girls, and grinned:

"However, although lamb is not suitable for roasting, it can be cooked in a steamer. Steamed lamb is a famous dish!"
"Master Su, you..."
The girls were dumbfounded. The lamb they were holding seemed to feel the strong malice and began to flap its hooves and struggle.
"I suddenly want to eat steamed lamb, and this one from Miss Luo is good."
As Su Xian spoke, he suddenly pounced on Luo Li, like an eagle pounces on a chicken, apparently trying to catch the lamb in Luo Li's arms.
"ah!"
The girls screamed at the same time, hugged their own lambs, and ran away, not looking like ladies at all.
They usually never leave the house without taking a step, and rarely run. When they suddenly ran like this, their postures were as weird as they could be, and they were swaying in various ways, which looked particularly interesting.
"Hahahahaha..."
Su Xian was very happy behind him and even tried to catch up.
After the girls ran around for a while, they suddenly realized that Su Xian was trying to scare them.
If the big devil wanted to eat their pets, he wouldn't have helped them just now.
It's just that the big devil is too evil to scare them like this...
However, not long after, they gathered around again and followed Su Xian and Yang Ruoxian. This time they learned their lesson and did not dare to provoke the big devil again.
…
Jiaohe Temple is not far from here.
About two-quarters of an hour later, the Emperor Chu, the Queen and the ministers who were walking at the front entered the temple.
When Su Xian, Yang Ruoxian, and the gummy-looking ladies at the back of the team rushed to the open space outside the Jiaohe Temple, the Emperor of Chu had already finished offering sacrifices.
And exited the temple and settled in a nearby palace.
The Emperor of Chu and his ministers will rest in the palace for a while.
So that the accompanying young men and women can freely enter the temple to worship Gao Le.
When Su Xian and his entourage arrived, many young princes and celebrities had already gathered in the square in front of Jiaohe Temple. There were about two hundred people in Wuyangyang.
But not one of them entered it.
They are all waiting, waiting for the arrival of the group of wealthy ladies. It is interesting to go in pairs to worship. What are you going to do alone?
Do you watch others spreading dog food?
What's disgusting is that all the young ladies who are suitable for marriage actually ran to the back of the queue.
And they all gathered around that Su Zhe...
Just like a group of beautiful butterflies, surrounding a flower, indifferent to other flowers, the difference in treatment is too obvious!
This situation and this scene really correspond to the saying: Drought will kill you, and flood will kill you.
Just like that, under the glare of everyone, Su Xian was surrounded by a group of girls and walked across the entire square to the gate of Jiaohe Temple.
This process has caused dissatisfaction among many people.
Because Su Xian wanted to cross the entire square, they had to give way. They hated Su Xian so much that they would not take the initiative to give way, but... the one who opened the way was actually the girl they had been coveting for a long time.
They had to retreat to both sides to make way for a wide road that led directly to the temple gate of Jiaohe Temple!
This situation made them furious, making Su Xian look like a super big shot.
Still standing in front of everyone.
"Jiaohu Temple?"
Su Xian raised his head and looked at the tall and magnificent temple gate with a contemptuous tone. He turned back to look at the crowd and said with a smile:

"No one really thinks that they can get a good match just by worshiping a wooden and clay statue, right? If that's the case, why do you need a matchmaker?"
"What Mr. Su said is true."
Yang Ruoxian was the first to stand up and agree.
Her current goal is to capture Su Xian and use it for her Yang family. In order to achieve this goal, she can give up any subjective opinions.
For example, he just helped Su Xian slander those young men.
Also the time when the goats were slaughtered.
"It makes sense. We actually don't want to come here to worship Gao Le!" said a daughter.
"Yes, we are not married yet, we are still in the boudoir, and yet we come here to worship Gao Guan. It sounds like we really want to get married... we are so embarrassed!"
"..."
The men on the left and right looked awkward as they listened to the women's complaints.
That's right!
One of the most important goals of their trip is to seek karma by worshiping Gaozi.
During the outing just now, if Su Zhe hadn't caused trouble, their paper kite would have attracted the attention of the girls long ago, and it would be impossible for them to eventually create a karmic relationship.
Then, if we join hands to worship at the temple in the suburbs, this matter may really be done.
But, that's just an ideal situation.
The reality is that there is a troublemaker like Su Zhe, who seduces all the girls away, takes them all, and leaves no one for them...
The paper kites they carefully made were laughed at, and even when they went to the temple to worship, they were collectively complained by the girls...
ah!
The hormonal teenagers were getting more and more angry as they thought about this Su Zhe... They wanted to punch Su Zhe down and throw him into the ditch.
