Going to immortality inexplicably

Chapter 684
Qi Nu anxiously followed Shen Sheng into the huge Qi Palace, which was crowded but orderly.

Everyone who comes in is led to his special seat by a waiter.

Those who can come to the banquet are all important people in Qi State. The Qi Palace is solemn and solemn, and no noise is allowed. When meeting acquaintances, they only bow and bow without speaking.

Those who were too far away would bow their hands and salute from afar. Although the whole Qi Palace was crowded, it was very quiet.

Qi Nu did not dare to look around at all. She kept her duty in mind, so the servant could only bow slightly and follow her master. Standing too straight was a sin, and looking around was even more disrespectful.

If Duke Huan of Qi was angered, Shen Sheng would not be able to protect her.

She could only glance around quietly with the corner of her eye, unable to see the whole picture of Qi Gong.

I really miss my spiritual consciousness. If I could use my spiritual consciousness, I could scan every corner of Qi Palace.

Shen Sheng was taken to his seat by a small attendant. This was a real seat, a short table over one meter long with a mat. Shen Sheng knelt down and sat down. Qi Nu and another attendant stood quietly. behind him.

Shen Sheng brought two diners, and they also had a seat on his left and right sides, but there was only a small table.

This is also because Shen Sheng is the guest of honor, so his diners only have a small seat, and others do not have such treatment.

Everyone knows their specifications, but few people bring diners over.

No matter how big Qi Palace is, it is limited. There are many princes and nobles coming to the banquet, as well as some important ministers. If everyone brings a guest, even if they only bring one, Qi Palace will be crowded.

Duke Huan of Qi's six sons all came. They had never seen Shen Sheng before, and they were full of curiosity about this nephew. Naturally, they couldn't let go of this opportunity.

They also brought their sons, and these descendants of Duke Huan of Qi almost occupied half of the palace.

Shen Sheng has a reputation as a virtuous person. I often hear anecdotes about Shen Sheng when he is far away in Qi State. I have long wanted to make friends with him, but due to the high mountains and long distances, I have no chance to meet him. Now that Shen Sheng has arrived in Qi State, how can I not come and meet him? ?
It’s just that women cannot attend the banquet, otherwise they will occupy most of the palace.

In addition to the descendants of Duke Huan of Qi, as well as some distinguished ministers and princes and grandsons who had fled from other countries, the entire Qi Palace was already occupied.

"The monarch is coming!"

As a rough and hoarse voice sounded, Qi Huangong made his debut.

"Welcome your Majesty!"

Everyone stood up and bowed their heads to the ground in front of Duke Huan of Qi, making simultaneous sounds from their mouths.

There was a uniform roar, and the echo echoed in the hall for a long time.

Taking this opportunity, Qi Nu quietly raised her head before bowing and saluting with everyone. Her eyes quickly glanced at Duke Huan of Qi who was standing on the high platform of the palace, and then she quickly lowered her head.

The distance is relatively far, so I can't see his appearance clearly at once, but that kind of demeanor that looks down on the world is not something that can be possessed by someone who has been in a high position for a long time.

Most of his hair is already gray, and he is probably over [-] years old. The ancients didn't have any hair dye, so when their hair turns gray, it turns white.

Her mental state seems to be very good, but Qi Nu knows that in more than ten years, a generation of overlords will come to an end, and the ending will be very bad.

Do you want to give Jiang Xiaobai (i.e. Duke Huan of Qi) a heads-up because he has the same name as his own Xiaobai?
But she was just a lowly concubine of Shen Sheng, so how could she have a chance to talk to Duke Huan of Qi?

Moreover, the four evil men around Duke Huan of Qi were in the same camp, and three of them had formed an offensive and defensive alliance. Even Shen Sheng, let alone himself, did not dare to intervene.

Shen Sheng is just a young man who came to Qi State to seek refuge. He has no roots in Qi State and it is impossible to deal with the four evil people who are deeply rooted in Qi State.

If he dared to cause trouble for the four of them, he might die in a foreign land without any explanation.

"No need to be polite, please take a seat and let the banquet begin!"

As Duke Huan of Qi finished speaking, the maids carrying trays filed in.

With light steps, they moved skillfully between the tables of the guests and placed the steaming dishes on them.

"Everyone is in for a treat today. This is a dish cooked by Yi Ya, my exclusive chef. Every dish is a rare delicacy. Please savor it."

Duke Huan of Qi's voice was full of energy, and echoes echoed throughout the hall.

Yi Ya?Haha, does the great Duke Huan of Qi, one of the four evil men, know that your end will be the work of Yi Ya?Even if you are the overlord and have the best chef in the world today, have you ever thought that you will starve to death in the end?

There was a touch of sarcasm on Qi Nu's lips, but she lowered her head so that no one noticed.

"Thank you, Monarch!"

Everyone stood up in unison to thank him, and then sat down again.

"Your Majesty, you are truly the most benevolent monarch today. I have long heard about the extraordinary cooking skills of Chef Yi Ya, and I am finally lucky enough to taste them today. It is truly the benevolence of the monarch. I can't thank you enough!"

One man did not sit down, but sang praises to Duke Huan.

"Okay, let's make a prescription and sit down to eat."

Qi Huangong raised his hand and pressed it, motioning Kai Fang to sit down, but his face was pleasant, obviously he was very pleased with Kai Fang's flattery.

The young master prescribes a prescription?As expected, it belongs to an interest group and will look for opportunities to put money in the alliance's face at any time.

Qi Nu did not dare to look up, but silently recorded the voice of the prescription.

"Yes, our monarch is No. 1 in ancient and modern times. Who in the world can match us today?"

The rough voice sounded again. This voice was the owner who just shouted "The monarch has arrived."

"Caught up!"

Duke Huan of Qi feigned anger, Shu Diao quickly covered his mouth, and then said quickly:
"This slave is guilty of death! If I tell the truth on such an occasion, I really deserve death!"

Shu Diao had a flattering smile on his face. As he spoke, he knelt down to apologize. Duke Huan of Qi waved his hand, and he got up.

The princes, grandsons and ministers below have long been accustomed to this, so they are not surprised.

Qi Nu could only sneer in her heart. Three of the four evil men had appeared. It seemed that these three people had become the shadows of Duke Huan of Qi, omnipresent and following him everywhere.

However, there was one person who didn't show up.

It is said that that man was an expert from outside the world, who was responsible for refining elixirs to make Duke Huan of Qi strong and immortal.

Such people are not suitable to appear in such vulgar occasions as today.

No matter how good the food was, Qi Nu was not qualified to taste it. In order to resist the temptation of such delicious food, she could only secretly divert her attention and think about the strange things of the four evil men.

He was a cunning person, with a flattering nature and good at flattery. In order to become the supervisor of Qi Huangong's harem, he did not hesitate to throw himself into the palace, and finally got his wish.

Precisely because he was born in his early adulthood, his voice remained rough and hoarse.

Kai Fang, the young master of Wei State, was good at hunting. After coming to Qi State, he was unwilling to go back. In order to get the favor of Duke Huan of Qi, he did not hesitate to sacrifice his two biological sisters.

After colluding with Shu Diao, she succeeded in making her two sisters the concubines of Duke Huan of Qi, and won the respect of Duke Huan of Qi.

Yi Ya, because of his good cooking skills, was recommended by Shu Diao to Duke Huan of Qi, and soon formed a three-person group with Shu Diao Kaifang.

Later, when Guan Zhong was investigating a case, he implicated Yi Ya and asked Duke Huan of Qi to drive Yi Ya away.

Shu Diao and Kai Fang hurriedly begged Duke Huan of Qi, saying that if Yi Ya was gone, who would cook delicious meals for the monarch?

Finally, Duke Huan of Qi relented and agreed to let Yi Ya cook his last meal.

Yi Ya searched his intestines and stomach, but couldn't find any special dishes that Duke Huan of Qi had not eaten before. He thought that the monarch had once said accidentally that except for babies, he had eaten all kinds of delicacies in the world.

So Yi Ya stewed his son and presented it to Duke Huan of Qi.

Duke Huan of Qi was full of praise. It was indeed a delicious food that he had never tasted before.

When he heard that this was Yi Ya's son, Duke Huan of Qi couldn't eat any more, but Yi Ya was also kept.
