The small courtyard of Prince Lingwu's Mansion is quiet and quiet.

"Gee, I really didn't expect it. When I traveled through time at the beginning of the year, I was still worried about my status as a gangster, but now I live in the Lingwu Prince's Mansion in Zhongjing."

Lu Zheng was sitting on the stone bench in the pavilion of the small courtyard, eating the chilled fruits stored in the cellar of the palace until the summer. He crossed his legs and said leisurely, "And you don't have to take this generation of King Lingwu seriously."

Shen Ying ate and found a sand fruit, put it in her mouth and took a bite. The sweetness still contained a lot of sourness, and she couldn't help but shake her head, but she still ate the fruit "click-click-click". "Not to mention Prince Lingwu's Palace, with your conduct, even if you enter the palace to have an audience, Emperor Jing will treat you with courtesy."

Although Dajing established a country and a dynasty in the world of immortals, except for Apart from the military, special departments such as the Department of Foreign Affairs and Palace Guards, most of the officials who govern the country, even members of the royal family, are ordinary people.

Even if the royal family dies, not everyone is qualified to turn into ghosts and gods and enjoy incense offerings. After all, no matter how much incense is available in the world, it is limited. How can it be given to more and more people? An unlimited supply of incense?

For example, the lineage of King Lingwu has been with the country for six hundred years. Only Jing Gaoqi became a god, developed great supernatural powers, and enjoyed royal enshrinement. After him, there was only one descendant with good qualifications who became a god after his death. At this time, he was serving as Tianyi Star Officer in the Lingkong Heaven Realm.

For example, Emperor Jing of this generation takes various tonics but has no cultivation at all. Can you believe it?

However, King Jing and King Lingwu are different. No matter which generation of King Jing they are, they can become gods and enjoy incense after death. This is the only special case of the Dajing court. Others, even the queen , also depends on qualifications.

Those with good qualifications will be granted the title of god after death, either as land or as a city god.

Those with better qualifications will enter the spiritual world and become star officials of the imperial court, as a legacy of the dynasty.

As for those with poor qualifications... they naturally mean that the body has died and the Tao has disappeared, they have no obsession, their soul is not solid, they cannot enter the netherworld, and they cannot become ghosts.

In addition to these ghosts and gods, the imperial court has the right to rule the Central Plains, and naturally has a lot of resources such as exercises, elixirs, and treasures, so it can recruit the world's masters for its own use. , and can also recruit children with extraordinary talents and train them from an early age. These people are the court's confidence in dealing with other forces.

For example, in the town of Yisi, the origins of the envoys in different places are different. Luo Yixian of Yisi in Weizhou Prefecture is a disciple of Baiyunguan, while Chu Jin of Yisi in Yizhou Prefecture is a disciple of Baiyunguan. , are the talents cultivated by the imperial court itself.

Having said so much, I actually mean the same thing. Although there are many masters in the Dajing court, there are more ordinary people.

With Lu Zheng’s strength, even when he comes to the palace, he will be honored by othersA word of "immortal chief", let alone this Lingwu Prince's Mansion.

When they met in the afternoon, Lu Zheng saw clearly that in the entire palace, not counting a few martial arts guards and a single alchemist, except for King Lingwu of this generation, who had a hundred years of Taoism, there was only one Jing Qianyu, who was sent by Jing Gaoqi to be his tour guide, had extraordinary qualifications, and his cultivation level was probably similar to Yuan Jing's.

Yuan Jing:

When King Lingwu of this generation saw that his ancestor personally led a few people here, he naturally knew that Lu Zheng and the others were great alien masters. It was a being who made Jing Gaoqi a good friend, so they naturally treated him with caution and enthusiasm, and sent Jing Qianyu as a tour guide without hesitation.

Although King Lingwu has a good status in the Dajing royal family, no one will dislike his many opportunities, right?

"Dong dong dong!"

There was a sudden knock on the door, and then the voice of Liu San, the steward, sounded outside the door, "Are the gentlemen and ladies here? How about dinner? Come on, can I have someone bring it to you?"

"Come in." Lu Zheng responded, then smiled, "Just in time to try the food in Prince Zhongjing's Mansion."

I saw the door of the small courtyard being pushed open, and then twelve people, each carrying a double-layered food box in each hand, walked in one after another, without even looking at the pavilion. Under Liu San's command, he entered the main hall and began to arrange the arrangements.

A large round table was brought up, four Taishi chairs were placed side by side, bowls, chopsticks and hand towels were placed in front, and then plates and basins of steaming dishes were placed on the table. It was brought out and placed in a nice shape on the round table.

Forty-two dishes are rich in fragrance, colorful in color, and arranged in different heights. They are arranged like a beautiful flower cluster.

Then, except Liu San who stayed, there were four maids standing behind the seats, each holding a pair of long chopsticks in their hands, and two other maids, standing aside. Standing by, there are hot water, hand towels and other things that need to be used or replaced at any time on the table.

"Master Lu, the three ladies, dinner is ready. Please take your seats." Liu San came outside the pavilion, bowed to Lu Zheng and others, and said respectfully.

Lu Zheng:

"I take back what I just said, the Capital Palace is indeed extraordinary, but I am superficial." Lu Zheng said blankly.

Liu Qingyan and Shen Ying couldn't help but laugh. Si Lingxi also shook her head and laughed. She stood up and said with a smile, "It's really a good job to save face, but I also had a royal banquet once, except for Except for a few dishes that have some special features, most of the dishes are actually not as good as what you cook casually."

Lu Zheng's craftsmanship was added with the light of luck. His superb cooking skills, Already close to the Tao, universalHow can Tong, a chef with only decades of experience, compare to him?

"It's good to eat something fresh, but just by looking at the dishes and taste, you can tell that there are a lot of ingredients in the palace's kitchen." Lu Zheng smiled and said, "If it doesn't suit your taste, I'll borrow them tomorrow Let’s use the kitchen.”

Several people sat down with smiles, and Lu Zheng became interested. He didn’t ask the maid to leave in a pretentious manner, but took the initiative to enjoy it.

I have to say that these maids are indeed the maids of the royal palace. Their looks are really good, and their service is just right. It makes people feel that it does not affect the rhythm of the experience, and it is very convenient and comfortable to eat.

Its professionalism is much better than Haidilao. At least Haidilao sometimes makes Lu Zheng feel overly enthusiastic and a little awkward.

After the meal, Lu Zheng took the mouthwash from a maid, rinsed his mouth, spit it into the copper basin, then washed his hands in a new copper basin, and took the mouthwash. I wiped it with a clean hand towel handed over by the maid.

Then, Lu Zheng wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and then put it on the tray held by the maid in front of him. He watched the waiter clear away the leftovers on the table, and then put them on the tray. The big table was carried to the back of the hall.

In just half the time of burning incense, the hall returned to its original appearance, and Lu Zheng was already sitting at the top of the hall, holding a cup of steaming tea in his hand.

Looking at the waiters and maids who saluted him and then left one after another, Lu Zheng couldn't help but shake his head and sighed, "It's too extravagant... If I hadn't been successful in cultivation, I would have definitely been corrupted... …”
