I am the Holy Poisoner, the Empress advised me to calm down

As expected, money is the most effective thing in this world. Money makes the world go round. This saying is still timeless. Give the waiter a bag of money and he will happily tell you whether the person next door is the prince.

Just now, the waiter acted as if he was keeping his mouth shut, but now it seems that he was just pretending. As long as you give him some decent benefits, he will tell you all the news. He also said that he wanted to protect the privacy of the guests, which is simply ridiculous.

Lin Chen hated such people the most. They could betray everyone for the sake of interests and benefits. No matter who was around such people, they would be afraid that they would suddenly stab him in the back. It was really scary.

Lin Chen doesn't want to have such a person around him, otherwise it would be too scary. Just thinking about it is enough...

"Well, are you serious?"

Lin Chen confirmed again that it was not ruled out that the waiter might have accepted his benefits and still deceived him.

"Sir, how could I possibly lie to you? I've already taken your money, so don't worry. I take money to help people get rid of disasters, and I'm known for my exceptional integrity. Sir, don't worry. If the man next door wasn't the prince, you can punish me however you want, and I'll accept it. I'm confident in this regard, and I don't think I'll make any mistakes."

The waiter put away the purse in his hand, raised his head and said with certainty.

"Well, I don't think you dare to deceive me, otherwise you will definitely suffer the consequences."

Lin Chen said with a hint of ferocity.

This is how people like this should be treated. If they are not deterred, something might go wrong. Lin Chen doesn't want to see such a thing happen, at least not to himself, otherwise he will suffer a great loss.

"That's right, how dare I lie to you, sir? I'm asking for trouble! I'm still more sensible."

Zhang Xiaoer smiled awkwardly and said.

The waiter knew in his heart that he really couldn't afford to offend the customer in front of him. After so many years in Beijing, he knew that different people should be treated with different attitudes.

For example, the people on the first floor are all ordinary people, so naturally you just need to treat them with an ordinary attitude. But the second floor is not for ordinary people. Most of them are powerful people and children of wealthy and prestigious families. The waiters can't afford to offend these people, so naturally you can't afford to offend them. If you rush to provoke these people, the end will be very miserable. If you are slightly better, you may be killed. If it is more serious, not only you may die, even your relatives and friends may not escape.

"Well, what you said is quite right. Okay, you can go out now. If you don't have anything to do, don't bother me. Even if you have something to do, you must knock before entering. Otherwise, you know the consequences. I don't need to repeat these things!"

Lin Chen raised his head and said with a hint of warning in his eyes.

"I understand, I understand. I will definitely not rashly disturb you, sir. Okay, then, sir, please enjoy your meal. I'll be leaving first."

The waiter pointed to the steaming food on the table and said respectfully.

"Ah."

Lin Chen nodded and responded.

Then the waiter went out and closed the door.

Lin Chen looked at the food on the table and was impressed. The color of the food looked good and the dishes were quite rich.

On this table, there are braised fish, braised prawns, braised lion's head, and steamed tofu...

"This second floor is indeed a place for the nobility to enjoy. It looks really nice."

Lin Chen closed his eyes and stretched his nostrils, and all the smell on the table was taken in by Lin Chen.

"Hmm...it smells good too, let's see how it tastes!"

Lin Chen picked up a pair of chopsticks, picked up a piece of braised fish, put it in his mouth and chewed it carefully.

"Well, the taste is first-rate. No wonder even the current prince comes back here to eat. As expected, this restaurant can be regarded as a first-rate restaurant in the capital. Even the food in the imperial palace in the capital may not be as delicious as the food on the table in this restaurant.

Lin Chen was eating and drinking tea while eavesdropping on the conversation between the prince and others next door.

"Prince, that princess's retainer, Lin Chen, is truly despicable. He simply doesn't take you seriously. If he can't be used by us, we'd better get rid of him as soon as possible to prevent future troubles!"

"Well, I do have this idea, but from my dealings with Lin Chen these days, I have the feeling that he is not so easy to deal with. If our action fails, we will definitely provoke Lin Chen's revenge. Have you forgotten that our previous attempts to overthrow the princess failed? They were all Lin Chen's ideas. It is obvious that Lin Chen is different from what we think. He is not an ordinary person. We still have to be cautious when dealing with him. It is not too late to take action when we come up with a perfect plan. After all, it is safer this way."

"Prince, this is wrong. We can't wait any longer. If we delay for a while, Lin Chen will become even more powerful. By then, it will be even harder for us to deal with him. Prince, you must think twice. The sooner this man is eliminated, the sooner we can feel at ease. Otherwise, as long as he exists in this world, we will have sleepless nights. This is not a good thing!"

"Well... you do have a point, but... I still have some concerns. The Emperor is already displeased with me because of the previous incidents. My reputation has been severely damaged not only in the capital, but also in the palace. If our operation fails this time, I will really be deposed as Crown Prince by the Emperor. So we have to be cautious and take a long-term approach. Otherwise, if we fail miserably, I don't want to end up like a stray dog."

................................................

Lin Chen was listening to the conversation between the prince and his advisers next door and just smiled slightly. These people were still too naive to dare to fight with him. But now the prince was much more cautious and didn't dare to wait for him to attack him easily. It seemed that this prince had fought with him several times and knew how powerful he was. He didn't dare to act rashly and attack him easily.

Now I am no longer the powerless retainer I was when I first traveled through time. It is not so easy to deal with me or to defeat me.
