Traveling through the ancient times

Chapter 108 The King Experiences Mahjong Hotpot

After playing for about an hour, several people had roughly learned it. The servant introduced them how to play the sticky note game. Only the servant who led them in at the beginning was left waiting on the side, and the others went out to do other things.

It was the first time for them to play by themselves, and everyone was excited. The guard took a card and looked at it and laughed excitedly. He looked up and saw the king opposite him looking at him blankly. He pinched it and silently played the card...

Who dares to win in front of the king? You're risking your life!

After two more rounds, the king won. "Haha... I won!"

The others said congratulations, and then won the game in a few moves, until only Eunuch Changde was left.

The king picked up a piece of paper that the maid had brought and put some water on the plate. He looked at Li Changde excitedly and said, "I'm sorry, old friend. Let me see where I should put it."

The king pretended to be embarrassed and looked back and forth at Li Changde's face, and finally stuck his hand directly to the middle of Eunuch Changde's forehead.

Eunuch Changde looked at the king with resentful eyes, "Master..."

As Eunuch Changde spoke, the breath strips from his mouth fluttered in the wind, which was quite funny.

Hahahaha…The king burst into laughter…

The two guards didn't dare to laugh openly, they could only lower their heads and hold back their laughter...

When Eunuch Changde saw this, he said resignedly, "Laugh if you want to, but don't hold it in and you'll end up in trouble."

After some more laughter, they started the next game. After several rounds, the king won first.

Gradually, the king began to realize that these people were deliberately letting him go. What was the point? So he warned them, "Fight well. If I find anyone deliberately letting me go again, I will fine him this month's salary."

They suddenly became even more terrified. If they made a mistake, they were afraid that the king would be unhappy. If they didn't make a mistake, they were also afraid that the king would be unhappy. It was really difficult to be a guard (slave)!

This time, the guard opposite the king won again. He held the card in his hand and secretly glanced at the king, looking again and again to see if he had won or not!

When the king saw his expression, he knew that he must have made a mistake, so he called a servant to come over to see if he had made a mistake.

The waiter looked at it and said with a smile, "This guest has indeed won the game."

Now the guard had no choice but to accept the hot card. When the other two saw that someone had taken the lead, they had nothing to fear!

Winning!

At the end of the fight, only the king was left. He and the guard opposite him looked at each other, and the other two looked at him with sympathy.

Several pieces of paper were stuck on the faces of the other people, except the king's face which was clean. Looking at the funny looks of the others, the king couldn't stop laughing.

But when he thought that there would be a note on his face next, he couldn't laugh anymore.

The guards dared not move when they saw the king’s gloomy face. The king saw what he was thinking and said, “What are you standing there for? Come and put it on me.” I am not someone who cannot afford to lose.

The guard picked up a piece of paper, stood up tremblingly and walked to the king, "Master, I'm sorry." After saying that, he closed his eyes, put the note on the king's face with shaking hands, turned around and sat upright in his seat.

The king thought the note was quite interesting and blew on it gently, and the note flew up. How interesting!

The others didn't dare to laugh at the king, and continued with their blushing faces to the next game.

After a while, the few people were not so restrained anymore, and everyone's face was covered with notes.

They were having so much fun that they didn't want to go out for lunch. However, the waiter told them that the third floor did not allow guests to dine, so they could go out for lunch and come back later.

The king stood up and stretched. He had been sitting for the whole morning and now he felt a little tired. It would be good to go out and stretch his muscles.

The king went downstairs with a few people, still unsatisfied. As he walked, he thought, this mahjong is really quite interesting!

As long as you can grasp it well, just treat it as a pastime in your spare time, and invite three or two friends to play this game of sticking notes together, it's pretty good.

Several people came to the street. It was lunchtime. From time to time, the aroma of food wafted from the restaurant next door, causing the king to grumble to himself.

When Eunuch Changde heard this, he covered his mouth and smiled, saying, "Master, shall we find a restaurant to have dinner first?"

"Well, I'm quite hungry. Let's see if there's anything delicious here."

The few of them walked forward, and the spicy smell in the air became stronger as they walked forward.

This smell, just smelling it, makes people salivate. The king couldn't help swallowing his saliva, "Which restaurant is this fragrance coming from?"

The guard immediately responded, "My lord, this is coming from the spicy restaurant in front."

"Laweizhai? This name is quite appropriate. It smells spicy." The king quickened his pace, "Let's go and try how spicy this Laweizhai is today."

At this time, Nianchuhua was greeting guests in the lobby on the first floor. It was dinner time and the lobby was almost full.

The king walked over with a few people. Chushunhua saw them at a glance and hurriedly went to greet them, "Welcome to Laweizhai, what would you like to eat?"

The king saw that the girl who greeted them was pretty and neither humble nor overbearing. He smiled and replied, "What delicious food do you have here? We are new to Qunan and came here because of the delicious food. Can you recommend something for us, little girl?"

When Chuanxi Hua heard that they were new customers from out of town, she recommended them to eat hot pot. "Our restaurant's specialty is hot pot and barbecue skewers. Everything is very good. If this is your first time here, I recommend you try hot pot."

"Okay, let's have hotpot!" Nian Chuhua led the few people to an empty seat and sat down.

"Here is the menu. Take a look at the dishes you like and tick the ones on the back with this pen." Nianchuhua handed the king a menu and a charcoal pencil she had invented herself.

The king looked at the paper with the name of the dish and a "pen" with a piece of charcoal wrapped in a cloth strip. He was full of curiosity, "Is this a pen?"

"Yes, this is more convenient than a brush."

The king took the pen and ticked a dish name. It was really useful. "Where did you buy this?" I have never seen it before.

Nianchuhua smiled and said, "This is something our host came up with to make it easier for customers to order food."

"Your boss is really smart. This spicy vegetarian dish is quite unique. He must be a very important person." The king praised.

Isn't this "brush" more convenient and easier to use than a brush? You can carry it with you when you go out, and you don't have to grind ink or worry about the ink sticking to your body. The person who can come up with this method must be a capable person.

"Thank you for your compliment, sir. It was just a sudden thought. I don't deserve the title of a great man."

The king quickly checked off a few dishes he wanted to eat and returned the menu and pen to Nian Chuhua.

“Guest, are there any ingredients or dishes that you are allergic to?” Chushunhua kept the allergy incident in mind and instructed all the store employees to ask new customers if there are any food that they are allergic to.

The king couldn't remember if he had any dietary restrictions. Eunuch Changde told Chuanchuhua, "Miss, our master is not used to eating houttuynia cordata. Just don't put houttuynia cordata in the dishes. Everything else is fine."

"Okay! I'll make a note for you right away." At the beginning of the year, a note was drawn on the menu that said no houttuynia cordata should be added. "Would you like it slightly spicy or extra spicy, sir?"

“Is there a big difference?”

"If you don't normally tolerate spicy food, I suggest you try the mildly spicy version first."

"Okay, then I'll take your advice and make it slightly spicy!"

"Okay, please wait a moment!" Nian Chuhua poured a cup of tea for the king and went to the kitchen with the menu.
