Chapter 36
The shouts of the servants of the Lu family immediately caused an uproar.
"What? Did I hear you right? Are you sure that Baijin is Baijin? Not Baiqian?"
"I'll go, it's a hundred gold, who is this Mr. Zhao?"
"I'm afraid this person is not a fool. It's ridiculous to spend a hundred gold just for a meal."
The people watching were talking about it, and Ying Yu had already arrived in the hall of the Lu family.
"Hey, this must be Mr. Zhao who spends a hundred gold? Please come inside!"
As soon as he entered the hall, a middle-aged man greeted him.
"you are?"
Ying Yu asked suspiciously.
The middle-aged man smiled: "This is the concierge of the Lu family, please take your seat."
Ying Yu waved his hand, "You don't need to take the seat, I think that seat is fine."
After saying that, he ignored the concierge of the Lu family, and walked over to sit down on his own.
"Hey, brother, did you really spend a hundred gold?"
As soon as Ying Yu sat down, a somewhat scruffy middle-aged man came over.
Ying Yu didn't care, just nodded slightly in response.
This somewhat scruffy middle-aged man is Liu Ji, the head of the pavilion in Surabaya.
Seeing Ying Yu nodding his head, Liu Ji immediately showed a courteous smile on his face:
"Liu Ji, the head of the pavilion in Xiasurabaya, don't you know the surname of the young master Gao?"
"What, you are Liu Ji?"
Ying Yu was a little surprised, he came here to find Xiao He, and he didn't expect to meet this great Han founding emperor here.
"My lord, do you know me?" Liu Ji was also surprised, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud.
Ying Yu laughed dryly, and said perfunctorily, "I've heard a little bit, I've heard a little bit!"
At this moment, Ying Yu was thinking about a question.
Liu Ji, also known as Liu Bang, the founding emperor of the Han Dynasty.
Since I have encountered it, should I kill it?
"Hey, brother, do you eat dates?"
Just when Ying Yu was thinking about whether to kill Liu Ji, this guy approached him again.
From nowhere, he took out a handful of green dates and placed it in front of Ying Yu.
Looking at the attentive Liu Ji, Ying Yu let go of his thoughts.
You're not welcome, picked up the green dates on the table and ate them.
"Hey, I said Old Liu, do you know Xiao He?"
Liu Ji was taken aback when he heard the words, and then quickly said:
"Know, know, let's not hide from Mr. Zhao, Mr. Xiao Hexiao and this subordinate have a life-threatening friendship."
"Young Master Zhao, do you have something to do with Mr. Xiao?"
Ying Yu nodded: "There is something wrong!"
"Old Liu, since you know Master Xiao, why don't you introduce me?"
Liu Bang looked at Ying Yu suspiciously, hesitated a little and said:
"No problem, it's on me."
"Haha, cool!"
As soon as Ying Yu finished speaking, a member of the Lu family came in with food and wine.
Liu Bang pawed Ying Yu, pointed to a few people walking slowly at the entrance of the hall, and said:
"Come on, the person in the black robe is Lord Xiao, and the one next to Lord Xiao is Mrs. Lu."
Upon hearing this, Ying Yu immediately looked at Xiao He.
Xiao He's figure is not too tall, his facial features are straight, his skin is a bit dark, and he has a short beard. At this time, he was talking and laughing with Mrs. Lu.
After arriving in the middle of the hall, Mrs. Lu said directly:
"Fellow folks, we moved from Dangjun County to Guibao Land, so there are so many troubles..."
"Today is a special banquet. Firstly, I am here to pay a visit to the local parents and officials, especially to thank Mr. Xiao He for coming in person."
"This time, I came here to get acquainted with the folks. There will definitely be a lot of troubles for you in the future."
"This old man is here, let me offer you a toast first."
After the old lady Lu finished speaking, she picked up the wine glass and was about to say something more, when Liu Ji shouted directly:
"Do it, do it!"
brush!
Immediately, everyone's eyes turned to Liu Ji.
"Who is this person?"
"I don't know, how did such a vulgar person get in?"
"This person looks like a country guy at first glance, how can he be at the same table as me."
Many people started talking in low voices.
Holding the wine glass, Liu Ji also realized that something was wrong, so he just stayed where he was, not knowing what to do.
At this time, Ying Yu raised his glass, clinked glasses with Liu Ji, and said calmly, "Come on!"
Everyone looked at Ying Yu, then at Liu Ji, then stopped talking and began to drink.
Seeing this, Mrs. Lu also drank a cup, "Come and serve the food, folks, eat and drink to your heart's content!"
Following Mrs. Lu's order, the servants who had been waiting for a long time brought over the food and wine immediately.
"Thank you, Mr. Zhao, for saving the siege!"
Liu Ji poured a glass of wine for Ying Yu, and said gratefully.
Ying Hui waved his hand: "It's just a trivial matter, no need to thank you."
When Liu Bang heard this, he didn't say much, just picked up a roast chicken and started to eat it.
Seeing this, the surrounding guests immediately started discussing again.
Someone even reminded me aloud: "I said this... this strong man, we are all gentlemen, it's insulting for you to eat like this, should you pay attention?"
Liu Ji heard the words and said displeased: "You are the only ones who have too many things!"
"Look at the Qin people who eat meat. They put wine on armor, and Qin Jian cuts meat. How can there be so many rules when eating meat like you?"
"You...you are vulgar!"
"We wait for people from Chu, how can we imitate people from Qin?"
Liu Ji dismissed this and ignored this person.
Seeing this, Mrs. Lu, who was seated at the top, said to Xiao He beside him:
"Lord Xiao, who is this strong man who gave ten thousand dollars?"
Xiao He put down his wine glass, winked at Liu Ji, and then said:
"He is the head of the local Surabaya Pavilion, named Liu Ji!"
Old Mrs. Lu nodded, and then asked in confusion: "A mere pavilion chief actually gave away ten thousand dollars?"
Hearing this, Xiao He showed embarrassment on his face, glared at Liu Ji, and said helplessly:
"Grandpa, this Liu Ji is a man of righteousness. He can be regarded as a hero, and he is also a good friend. But let's forget about the money!"
Old Mrs. Lu nodded, understanding what Xiao He meant, and besides, his Lu family was not short of money, because he didn't care.
Then he looked at Ying Yu again:
"Master Xiao, then who is this young master Zhao who gave hundreds of gold?"
Xiao He put down his wine glass, and also looked at Ying Yu.
I was even more puzzled in my heart, "Old Grandpa, to be honest, this is the first time Xiao has met Mr. Zhao."
"Oh, even Mr. Xiao He doesn't know him, so Mr. Zhao is not from this county, right?"
Xiao He nodded, "Probably not!"
"That's weird. Since you're not from this county, and you're not related to my Lu family, why would you give a hundred gold? It's unreasonable."
Xiao He was also puzzled, thought for a while and said:
"Old man, I think that Liu Ji had a very happy conversation with this Mr. Zhao, maybe he knows the origin of this Mr. Zhao."
Old Mrs. Lu nodded, "Master Xiao is right."
Xiao He put down the wine glass in his hand, "Liu Ji...Liu Ji, come, come here!"
Hearing someone calling him, Liu Ji raised his head, and after realizing it was Xiao He, he picked up his wine glass, got up and walked over.
