Chapter 74 Go to the banquet with the general!

Chapter 74 Going to the banquet with the general!

Xia Jin summoned Zhang Ma, Si Si, Mu Baihao and others.

"Let me introduce to you, he is my newly recruited waiter, his name is Li Yu."

"Please take care of me!" Li Yu looked full of enthusiasm.

Zhang Ma found a handkerchief and threw it on his shoulder, and gave him a tray.

"Go and clean up the remaining dishes on table No. 7, and No. 9, by the way, also clean up the private room on the second floor."

Xia Jin looked at Li Yu, thinking that he would retreat in spite of the difficulties.

But I saw Li Yu leaving happily...

At the end of the day, Li Yu completed the tasks assigned by Zhang's mother without any complaints, which made Xia Jin look at him with admiration.

In the afternoon, when all the diners had left and the dishes were cleared away, Li Yu stood at the door of the kitchen and looked at the range hood hanging inside, amazed.

"This thing is so clever!"

"This is designed and assembled by our boss himself, isn't that awesome!" Siji looked proud.

Li Yu looked shocked. He didn't expect that Brother Xia was not only good at cooking, but also proficient in mechanism skills!

"You will live in the backyard of the Food God Hall from now on, and you will be with Xiao Chen." Xia Jin came over from behind.

Li Yu looked at the rotating waterwheel and the shaft that drove the range hood with fascination, and was shocked in her heart!

He suddenly understood why Taifu asked him to come here to practice... You must know that there are not even five such level of machine skills in the Yan Kingdom!

No, no, maybe only two!

Li Yu suddenly had an idea in his mind. After completing this experience, he would find a way to bring Xia Jin back to the palace and introduce him to his father!

I believe that my father will definitely reuse him!

Even if his father doesn’t reuse him, he will definitely reuse him when he becomes emperor!

Xia Jin saw him looking at the waterwheel in a daze, so she explained a few words and went back.

By the time we returned to the house, it was already dark.

When I returned to the main courtyard, I saw a person sitting in the hall.

He was dressed in black soft armor, with black hair standing on end, and a stern face. His pair of narrow phoenix eyes were slightly drooped, and his thick eyelashes covered a layer of shadow under his eyes, making his already dark eyes darker and deeper.

"General, you are here."

Xia Jin walked in and sat on the futon opposite Lin Ziyi.

The candlelight shone on her face, the slightly raised corners of her lips and bright eyes, which made Lin Ziyi's frown slightly relax.

"Because of the wedding banquet of the general guarding the city, the banquet originally planned to be held has been postponed a bit, and the date will be tomorrow."

Xia Jin made Lin Ziyi a cup of jasmine tea and asked, "Do you need me to do anything tomorrow?"

Lin Ziyi picked up the tea, blew the hot air gently, and said, "You just need to stay with me. You don't need to do anything or say anything."

Xia Jin said "Oh".

"General!" Mu Gu hurriedly walked in.

"Say." Lin Ziyi took a sip of tea.

Mu Gu glanced at Xia Jin and saw that the general didn't say anything, so he said, "There are clues about the 'Red Flame Fairy'!"

Xia Jin's ears perked up.

Lin Ziyi is investigating me? Could it be that he has discovered that she is the "Red Flame Fairy"!

The mask and clothes are well hidden. Could it be that they went to search her house...

Xia Jin's heart skipped a beat!

Just listen to Mu Gu continue to say: "Last night, an arrow was shot on the wooden pillar of Dali Temple. It said 'Red Flame Fairy' will burn down the main courtyard at the banquet of the Prime Minister's Mansion tomorrow to do justice to heaven!"

"Send someone to keep an eye on her and capture her alive tomorrow!"

"yes!"

Lin Ziyi left after dinner, and Xia Jin sat in the room, looking at her clothes and mask.

Obviously, someone is impersonating her!

The next day, Xia Jin put on the dress sent by Lin Ziyi, and Si Ji helped her dress up.

Xia Jin is wearing a smoky purple butterfly skirt. This skirt is very unique. The inner layer is made of soft smoke with excellent texture, and the outer layer is hazy with a thin layer of white gauze. The white gauze is embroidered with extremely fine silk threads.

The lifelike butterflies, from a distance, seemed to be surrounding her as if they were alive.

Because she was attending a banquet, today's hair accessories were a little more complicated than Xia Jin's usual outfit.

A black silk hair is coiled into a moon bun, fixed with a pearl jasper step, and several gilt butterfly combs are inserted, making it look luxurious and beautiful.

Si Ji looked at Xia Jin and almost didn't recognize her for a moment. She just covered her lips and exclaimed: "The young lady is so beautiful!"

On weekdays, Xia Jin doesn't apply makeup, nor does she comb her hair well. She either puts her hair up like a tomboy, or ties it into a bun. Even when she is dressing up as a woman, she only uses a wooden hairpin to fix the ends of her hair or loosen it.

Secure the ponytail with a ribbon.

In short, it should be as simple as possible.

Now that I dress up a little, I feel like a different person. It feels like...

Si Ji doesn't know how to express it, maybe it's the kind of beauty that shines from her bones, it feels like Xia Jin should dress like this, it suits her very well.

If ordinary people with ordinary heads suddenly dress up like this, there will always be an incongruity that cannot bring out the difference between clothes and hair accessories.

But Xia Jin was different, it was as if these accessories were born just for her, making the temperament revealed in her bones even more obvious.

Suddenly, Siji thought of a word.

Innate nobility!

Xia Jin walked out of the room and out of the yard. Lin Ziyi was sitting in the carriage waiting for Xia Jin. When he saw her coming, he turned around and his eyes lit up.

Xia Jin saw him staring at her, lowered her eyes and looked at her skirt, then looked at him.

"Is it weird for me to dress like this?"

Lin Ziyi's eyes flashed and he said: "It suits you very well."

The Bieyuan on the outskirts of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Because of the anonymous letter, they changed the venue of the banquet from the Prime Minister's Mansion to the Bieyuan.

The Prime Minister holds a recruitment banquet every year. As the name suggests, it is to recruit talents to serve as his staff.

Every year, the prime minister will invite some prestigious people to come and sit in charge.

Lin Ziyi receives invitations every year, but never comes, and for this banquet, he said he would come!

Everyone had arrived, and Prime Minister Qu looked at the empty space beside him.

"It seems that General Lin will not come."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard an announcement coming.

"General Zhenguo has arrived!"

Everyone looked out the door and saw Lin Ziyi walking in, and a woman was walking beside him, walking in with her!

"who is she?"

The people around him were whispering.

Lin Ziyi slightly cupped his hands and said: "General, I am late, please don't take offense to Prime Minister Qu."

"General Lin is a busy man, please take a seat."

Lin Ziyi took the throne, sitting on the same level as Prime Minister Qu, and Xia Jin was sitting next to her!

From the lower left hand side of Prime Minister Qu, Qu Linglong glared at Xia Jin fiercely, gritting her teeth.

"Why is she here!"

As he said that, he turned to look at Qu Linjie, only to see that Qu Linjie looked like he had seen a ghost.

"It's her...why is she still alive!"

"Brother, what did you say?"

"She is obviously dead..." Qu Rongjie was covered in cold sweat!
