0503: Jealous Women.
0503: Jealous Women.
At noon, in the restaurant of Hailan City Castle.
Qiao Ji sat on the main seat, Yu Lafei and Dinah sat facing each other, followed by Lian Xin, Lei Nai and others.
Since Yurafi is a princess, she sits on the right side of the main seat to show her dignity.
Of course, Yu Lafei also told Qiao Ji, just treat her as a normal friend, after all, she jumped out of the imperial capital.
"Today's breakfast is so rich." Yurafi looked at the delicacies on the table with surprise.
She has never seen such exquisitely prepared food in the palace, and every plate is full of color, fragrance and taste.
For lunch, Xue Nai made three cups of chicken, drunk crab, kelp and clam soup, etc., each of which was made according to the recipe given by Qiao Ji.
Because of the proximity to the sea and the trade with the Cyphilopinus islands, seafood is often seen for three meals a day, and king crabs and lobsters are already on the table.
"Eat more if you like it." Qiao Ji picked up the chopsticks and said cheerfully.
"Then I won't be polite." You Lafei also picked up the chopsticks, and threw a piece of Three Cup Chicken into his mouth to chew.
After taking a few mouthfuls, she rested her cheek with one hand and said pleasantly, "It's really delicious."
Although the palace chef is also very good, but back and forth are those few kinds of food, stew, vegetable soup and wheat bread and so on.
The reason why the dishes made by royal chefs taste good is mainly because the ingredients are delicious and expensive, so they can be made better than those outside.
But compared with the food in Hailan City, the food in the imperial palace is like a world away.
Dinah was also quietly eating beside her, observing Yurafi's every move with her eyes from time to time.
After taking a bite of the drunk crab, she turned her eyes to Qiao Ji who was in the main seat, thinking, luckily her younger brother only cared for her politely.
Thinking of this, Langer Niang felt a little relieved, she was a little jealous that her younger brother cared about You Lafei.
Lian Xin's orange eyes glanced at You Lafei, then at Wolf Er Niang, and immediately lowered her head and started eating on her own.
She held her long hair in front of her neck with one hand, took a sip of the soup with a wooden spoon, and thought while drinking, it seems that I am not the only one who thinks this feeling is weird.
Fox Erniang originally thought that it would be a little strange that she was suddenly jealous, but after seeing Dinah's strange expression, she was comforted in her heart.
The lord Hua Wei silently ate her lunch with her head down, not daring to look up at Qiao Ji and the others.
She has always been insecure, mainly because the women around Qiao Ji are too good, the girl naturally feels that she is a bit inferior to them.
After Lei Nai took a bite of fried beef with chili, he raised his eyes to look in the direction of Hu Er Niang and the others.
The corner of her mouth subconsciously twitched, muttering in her heart, Lian Xin has so many opponents, she can only hope that she will work harder.
The black cat girl first saw Yulafei chatting with the lord, then saw Dinah's jealous eyes, and saw Lianxin's unconfident expression.
In the end, it was Huawei's action of keeping her head buried. She used to eat while sitting upright. Obviously, this abnormal scene of hers was also related to the Lord.
Qiao Ji also felt the strange atmosphere, and quickly raised her hand and said, "Hurry up and eat."
"Yes." Everyone responded in unison.
After lunch was finished in a very strange atmosphere, Qiao Ji took Lei Nai and others to the study.
Yu Lafei returned to her room, Hua Wei went to deal with the caravan affairs, and Xue Nai arranged for someone to learn new dishes.
In the study.
Lei Nai took a letter from the messenger's claw and handed it over, "My lord, it seems to be a letter from the Jones family."
Qiao Ji glanced at the name on the envelope, raised her eyebrows slightly, and opened the letter to browse.
He took advantage of the situation and sat at the desk, sipping hot water while reading the letter. This was the first letter from the Jones family.
Lei Nai and the others sat quietly in their respective positions, and read the latest three chapters of A Dream of Red Mansions.
Three minutes later.
Qiao Ji put down the letter and the cup of hot water slowly, and said calmly, "It seems that we need to respond internally.
"My lord, what did Quary's letter say?" Lian Xin put down the Dream of the Red Chamber and asked.
The Jones family has never had any correspondence with Qiao Ji, but the pig iron business has been going on.
"He's asking about the eldest prince." Qiao Ji picked up the letter from the table and handed it over.
He folded his hands on the table, blinked his eyes slowly and said, "It's not the best time yet."
The content of the letter is that Jones is urging Qiao Ji, asking himself when he can take revenge.
After all, it has been a year since the two reached a cooperation, and Ince couldn't wait.
Lian Xin quickly read the contents of the letter, and said softly, "Now the eldest prince has just ascended the throne, Jones is a little too anxious."
0·Ask for flowers...
"Actually, it's understandable, but we have to wait." Qi Xing said and took out a pen from the pen holder.
He opened the drawer again and took out a blank sheet of paper. After thinking for a moment, he lowered his head and began to write.
Lian Xin consciously didn't bother her, but quietly stood aside, watching Qiao Ji write a reply.
"I've been planning this matter all along. It's useless to be anxious. If you want to completely bring down the eldest prince, you have to wait until he loses his defenses or falls into despair.
"The more this is the case, the more you have to endure it. You can choose to join the eldest prince's camp and try to gain his trust."
"When the two princes go to war, you can help me a lot, and at the same time, you can avenge yourself..."
Qiao Ji's letter to Quali is very simple, except to make him endure, it is to let him join the camp of the eldest prince.
He was waiting, waiting for the war between the two princes after the war started. If the eldest prince defeated the second prince, Queli's role would be to be an internal response to cooperate with him.
If the second prince defeats the first prince, Qiao Ji will also make a move at that time, leaving the first prince to Quili to solve.
Of course, as for which prince will win in the end, Qiao Ji doesn't know, which makes Quali bear it.
"Lei Nai, let the courier send this letter to the imperial capital." Huan Ji put the written letter in the envelope.
Lei Nai stepped forward to receive the letter, nodded and said, "Yes."
Qiao Ji turned his head to look at the Wolf Er Niang who was watching the Dream of Red Mansions, and asked softly, "Dinah, how are the cadres of the Holy League trained?"
It has been a year since Wolf Erniang left the imperial capital, and the number of cadres in the Holy League is still increasing.
"A total of more than 100 cadres were recruited, large and small, and the number of large cadres is relatively small."
Dinah immediately put down Dream of the Red Chamber, stood up and said, "Every cadre's background is clean."
Now the Holy League is distributed in a very wide area. Apart from a few super big cities, there are several big cities that have the shadow of the Holy League.
On average, a city has three to four major cadres in charge, and about ten small cadres to assist.
"Okay." Qiao Ji nodded slightly.
With cadres, there will not be too few younger brothers below.
