Chapter 7 Ningda

It was already three o'clock when I arrived in Tongcheng, Yizhou. The bumpy rides along the way made Dugu Lijun, who had not yet entered the low meter, hungry.

"Liu An, Wang Huan, let's go to the city to find a restaurant to eat. Since we have arrived in Tongcheng, there is no hurry, this time."

"General, Wang Huan and I have not brought any money." Liu An rode on the horse, saying playfully like a little girl.

Dugu Lijun looked at Liu An with charming charm and scolded, "You are the only one who is very jealous."

Liu An touched his head and smiled and said, "It's all well cultivated by the general."

Dugu Lijun gave Liu An a blank look and said to Wang Huan beside Liu An: "Wang Huan, I will take you to dinner and let him stay cool and cool."

Wang Huan nodded with a silly smile, "Okay"

After saying that, Dugu Lijun waved the whip of Yang Chi and left. "I'm going to have dinner with the general...." Wang Huan smiled and said, and followed closely.

"Don't bring such a bully person." Liu An looked at the two people who were leaving with a bitter face, "Go... Wait for me."

After entering Tongcheng, there was no horse riding in the city. Dugu Lifeng and others walked on foot and found a small restaurant on the street called Fukelai.

"Official Youke, come inside to invite you. There are many people today, three people are here to invite you." Dugu Liwei and others just stepped into Fuke. They were led to the second floor by a waiter wearing a short blue shop and sat in the seat beside the window on the second floor.

The waiter wiped the table with the rag in his hand and asked, "What are you going to eat? Our store has a signature dish, chicken..."

Liu An, who was sitting on both sides of the main seat, swallowed his saliva and stared at Dugu Lifeng with his eyes like a cow.

Dugu Lifeng, who was sitting in the main seat, looked at the two people beside him, rolled his eyes, thinking about how he brought these two fools.

"Then let's have two chickens," Dugu Lifeng paused, looked at Liu An and Wang Huan, and said, "It's better to have three more dishes! I'll cut beef, and a pot of wine. Just cook some food for two."

"Okay! Guest, please wait," the waiter turned around and shouted from the kitchen downstairs, "Three chickens, three plates of beef, one pot of wine, two fried."

After the waiter left, Liu An immediately turned to his face and said, "It's better for the general to treat his subordinates!"

Dugu Lifeng did not respond to Liu An immediately, but looked around the restaurant. This was the first time he had come to the restaurant. When his elder brother Dugu Yu was there, he would never let him leave the palace. Later, he had calculated that he was still going to the desolate border.

"Wang Huan and I will eat later, you can watch it." Dugu Lifeng withdrew his gaze and said with a smile at Liu An in front of him.

"No! General..."

"Okay! Don't call me general and call me young master when you go out. Go back to the palace and call me Your Highness, or the commander-in-chief." Dugu Lifeng interrupted Liu An with a stern face.

"Oh!" Liu An muttered in a low voice, "What's the most fierce thing?"

In fact, during the more than a year of time, Liu An and Wang Huan had already seen it clearly that as long as it was not a military and national event, or when they were commanding the border, they would have a lot of chatter with them in private, and would not care about them making jokes in private. They had no princely airs at all. Besides, their 18-man cavalry team has been serving as a relative for more than a year, so they had a very close relationship with Dugu Li.

Dugu Li kicked and said, "I'm muttering that I really won't let you eat, I'll let you sleep with your hug on the horse."

Liu An shut up completely, which made Wang Huan giggle on the side.

About half a quarter of an hour, the waiter brought plates of wine, meat and vegetables to the dining table. Dugu Liqi looked at the waiter in surprise. He didn't expect the speed to be so fast.

In fact, Dugu Lifeng didn’t know that except for some stir-frying, the remaining dishes would be prepared in advance.

Liu An, Wang Huan, who was beside him, looked at the food on the table and swallowed. He looked at Dugu Lijun, who had no intention of moving his chopsticks, and his face was full of anxiety.

Dugu Lijun obviously didn't care. He just slowly picked up the chopsticks prepared by Wang Huan in advance, picked up a piece of it and chewed it in his mouth.

After swallowing the meat in his mouth, Dugu Lijun thought to himself that the chicken here is still different from his world! Although the color is in place, the taste is still a bit lacking, and the method is different. Dugu Lijun shook his head in disappointment.

Liu An and Wang Huan saw Dugu Lijun moving their chopsticks and immediately picked up their respective chopsticks.

"Slow down, leave some for me." Liu An ate the beef he had just picked up and said to Wang Huan, who was eating the beef opposite him.

"Go away, you care."

Dugu Lijun, who was slightly disappointed, heard Liu An and Wang Huan's shouts and scolds, and couldn't help but look up. When Dugu Lijun saw that he was so hungry that he had no center of gravity that he fell off the chair. Liu An and Wang Huan and the others threw the wine, meat and food on the table into their mouths like wind and clouds.

"You two leave some for me," Dugu Lijun cursed with a smile. Influenced by Liu An and Wang Huan, Dugu Lijun also started to eat in big mouthfuls, completely forgetting his previous disappointment.

Halfway through the meal, a harsh voice of conversation came into the ears of Dugu Lijun and the other two.

"Have you heard that? The posthumous title of Emperor Qing is given to the deposed emperor."

"How could it be that I haven't heard of it? I guess the whole country should know it now."

"This Emperor Zongqing has been named after historic history, haha."

"Shh! Sigh down, don't you be afraid that the yamen will hear you and eat the board."

"I'm afraid of a ball, so I'm sent all the way to the whole country with great fanfare. I heard that after Zong Qing's death, only one younger brother with a twentieth crown and a five-year-old son were left. Do you think these two people can make fun of Tu Li and the other two? If they don't do it well, they will change their dynasty!"

Liu An and Wang Huan put down the chopsticks in their hands at the same time and looked at the two men in thick clothes who were still chattering endlessly. They turned their heads and looked at Dugu Lijun with a pale face.

Liu An slapped the table with a bang and said angrily: "I have to go and beat these two people's teeth."

As soon as Liu An was about to get up, he was stopped by Dugu Lijun, who had a cold face.

"Eat all! Let's go!" Dugu Lijun said coldly to Liu An, Wang Huan and the others.

"This..." Liu Anben wanted to say something, but was grabbed by Wang Huan as soon as he was about to speak. Wang Huan whispered in Liu An's ear, "Don't be unhappy."

Liu An shook his head and sighed, "Oh! Let's go!"

Liu An and Wang Huan followed Dugu Lijun downstairs. Seeing Dugu Lijun settle the bill, they followed him out of the restaurant.

A originally cheerful meal ended in such an unpleasant episode.

Dugu Lijun, who left the restaurant, walked along the street as if he had lost his soul. Liu An and Wang Huan, who were following behind, did not dare to disturb him, so he could only follow him like this.

As he walked, Dugu Lijun suddenly stopped, turned his head to Liu An, and Wang Huan and the others asked, "Is this road connecting to Ning Mansion?"

Liu An and Wang Huan, who were walking with their heads down, were jumped by the sudden sound. They quickly raised their heads and replied: "Young Master, this is the first time we have come back to Tongcheng."

Dugu Lijun said angrily, "What's the use of asking you two?"

Liu An, Wang Huan smiled and looked like you were the biggest, you would say whatever you like, and you would be happy.

Dugu Lijun rolled his eyes at the two of them helplessly.

"Auntie, how can I get to Ningfu in Yizhou?" Dugu Lijun stopped an old woman wearing a basket and a narrow sleeved back and asked sincerely.

The old woman was stopped by Dugu Lijun. She was stunned at first and laughed randomly. "This is your first time in Tongcheng!"

Dugu Lijun nodded in confusion, obviously not understanding why the old woman in front of her smile.

The old woman smiled and pointed at Dugu Lijun and said, "Walk back along this street, walk to the restaurant called Fuke, turn left and walk a hundred and eight steps. If you are sharp-eyed on this street, you can see it."

Dugu Lijun smiled awkwardly, "Thank you! Auntie, we didn't pay attention, didn't pay attention."

Dugu Liyun thoughtfully, they not only walked along this street for a long time, but also came to have dinner at Fuke, but they didn't pay attention, which really made Dugu Liyun very embarrassed.

More than ten minutes later, Dugu Lijun and the other three found Ning Mansion as the old woman said.

Liu An stared at the huge plaque written on Ning Mansion and sighed, "Ningda really knows how to enjoy it, and build this mansion so luxuriously."

Wang Huan, who was beside him, rolled his eyes and said disdainfully: "We have been to the palace, what's this?"

"It's different. It's really reasonable to have a luxury in the palace, but the general's mansion is so luxurious. It's really unexpected that even if Ningda is not a big traitor, he will not be much better."

Standing in the middle-aged Dugu Lijun silently took a step back, raised his legs and kicked Liu An and Wang Huan on the butts. "What are you talking about? Go and call the door."

Liu An patted his butt "Okay"

"Wait later" Dugu Lijun called Liu An and took out a token from his arms that was exactly the same as before to Wang Quan, but this one was gold and that one was iron.

These two tokens are similar. The relationship between the main and secondary cards of the 21st century China is the main token, and the iron is the secondary token. The main token is not in the secondary token, just like the main token. If the main token is in the secondary token, the main token shall prevail.

"Hold this."

Liu An carefully took the token from Dugu Lijun. This was a prince's token that ordinary people would never see in their lifetime.

Liu An trotted to the gate of Ning Mansion and knocked on the door several times with the copper ring on the gate.

"Who!" As a hoarse voice came from the door, the door slowly opened a crack and a middle-aged man with a beard came out.

After Liu An talked with the middle-aged man for a few words, he handed the token in his hand to the middle-aged man. After the middle-aged man picked up the token, he closed the door again. Liu An also returned to Dugu Lijun.

"Young Master, that slave said we were waiting outside the door. He went to inform him that Ningda was so arrogant that he actually asked you princes to wait outside the door," said Liu An, who ran back.

Dugu Lijun glared at him. "You talk too much, I didn't say anything, you can't stand it anymore."

“Don’t I feel unfair for you?……………”

Before Liu An could speak, he heard a "creaking" sound, and the three sides of Ning Mansion's doors slowly opened. Leading by a white-haired old man holding something with his hands, about 200 people ran from the door to a place three steps away from Dugu Lijun and knelt down.

After kneeling down, the old man with white hair whispered: "My name Ning Da, I will welcome His Highness Zhao for thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and thousands of years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and two years and

Dugu continued to look at Ning Da who was kneeling in front of him, and felt an indescribable excitement in his heart. He told himself silently that this first step must be taken.
