A middle-aged man in a gray silk robe walked in with his head held high. He looked at Wang Qian and cupped his hands before looking at Peng Yu.
"Young Master Peng, I am Lu Ziyang from the Welcome Building. I sincerely invite Young Master Peng to tell a story. Also, I heard that the Peng family has the intention to transfer the steamed bun recipe.”
Peng Yu stood up and returned a bow."There's no need to discuss the matter of storytelling. It's just that I'm not free now. Please forgive me, Shopkeeper Lu!"”
"Not free? What does that mean?" Lu Ziyang frowned and looked at Zhang Lizheng and Wang Qian.
"Brother Wang, we have traveled back and forth many times in Luoyang because of business matters. However, this time, Brother Wang has used such a despicable method to detain a person. You must know that His Majesty hates people who commit crimes the most."
"Brother Lu, you're wrong. This time, Cui Clan wants to capture Childe Peng to dig the river in Luoyang. I guess our wish will come to nothing." Wang Qian glared at Zhang Lizheng and slowly replied.
"Cui family? What right did he have? This Young Master Peng has caught the eye of my Lu Family, no one can touch him!”Lu Ziyang said sternly with a hint of contempt.
"What do you mean your Lu family took a fancy to it? Do you think my Taiyuan Wang family is afraid of you?”After hearing Lu Ziyang's words, Wang Qian refused to show weakness.
When the other people in the courtyard saw that the two aristocratic families were actually going to fight over Peng Yu, they were a little afraid.
They didn't know Peng Yu's value, but Wang Lu and Wang Yu knew very well that the Romance of the Three Kingdoms could not only bring a huge amount of high-end customers to the restaurant.
For example, the steamed buns that had been in the limelight in Luoyang for the past two days. They knew that the reason why the steamed buns were so delicious was because of the soda noodles.
This was something that could make all the noodles no longer sour. How many people in the Great Tang ate noodles every day? Even if the amount of soda wasn't as much as salt, even if it was half the amount of salt, it was still a terrifying number!
For this benefit, these aristocratic families were willing to offend even the most influential family, not to mention the Cui Clan of Luoyang.
"Young Master Peng, if you join my Lu Family, I will ensure your safety. In the future, if you participate in the examinations as a disciple of the Lu Family, your future will be limitless!”Lu Ziyang rolled his eyes and said to Peng Yu.
" That's right, Young Master Peng. If you join my Wang Clan, I guarantee that the Clan Leader will treat you like a direct descendant." Wang Qian hurriedly said when he heard his opponent's offer.
"I appreciate your kindness. As for me, I'm not going to anyone's house. I only want to have one condition now." Peng Yu stared at Zhang Lizheng and said coldly.
Zhang Lizheng's heart suddenly thumped violently, a bad feeling rising from the bottom of his heart.
"Oh? What condition?" Wang Qian and Lu Ziyang asked at the same time.
"I don't want to see this person again!" Peng Yu said word by word, her tone as cold as ancient ice.
"This is simple." Wang Qian looked at Zhang Lizheng as if he was looking at a dead man.
"Young Master Peng, you don't have to worry about this. My Lu Family can still do such a small thing in Luoyang." Seeing Wang Qian's stance, Lu Ziyang naturally did not want to fall behind.
Wasn't it just killing a small Li Zheng? Any random name could make him beg for death and live in misery.
Zhang Lizheng couldn't help but shiver. The two people in front of him were the representatives of the Lu family of Fanyang and the Wang family of Taiyuan.
From the royal court to the underground forces, the descendants of the clan were spread across all levels of society. It was simply too easy to kill a person.
Although being supported by Cui Clan, Zhang Tie was just a lackey of Cui Clan at most. There were many people like Zhang Tie in Cui Clan. Cui Clan would never declare war with the two major clans for Zhang Tie.
How did I get bewitched by Cui Lin back then and come to the Peng family to join in the fun?
Thinking of this, his legs went weak and he knelt in front of Peng Yu.
"Peng family's third son, please let me go. I came because Cui Lin encouraged me. You're an adult and don't hold a grudge against me." Zhang Lizheng was kowtowing on the ground.
"Hehe, you came just because someone asked you to? So if he wants you to die, you'll die too?”Peng Yu said slowly without looking at Zhang Lizheng.
Zhang Lizheng was sweating profusely and could not say a word. He could only kowtow.
"Yu 'er, we're all neighbors. Although he doesn't get along with us, we can't be heartless, right?”Li Cuihua couldn't stand it anymore and tried to persuade him.
"Mother, he just forced us to death, have you forgotten?”Peng Yu didn't listen to Li Cuihua this time. Her tone was a little dissatisfied.
"Brother, go to the kitchen and cut a piece of mutton for him to take away." Peng Yu turned to Peng Yong and said.
"Alright." Peng Yong recovered from his shock and went to the kitchen to cut a piece of mutton for Zhang Lizheng.
"Zhang Lizheng, my Peng family didn't offend you in any way. Just because we didn't invite you to this mutton feast, you feel that my Peng family is trying to oppress you.”Peng Yu said coldly.
Zhang Lizheng also knew that things couldn't be done, so he carried the mutton and left the courtyard in a daze.
At this moment, there were actually some people coming into the courtyard one after another. These people were all dressed luxuriously and talked about business matters. It seemed that they were all businessmen.
After these people arrived at the courtyard, they looked at the group of miscellaneous households participating in the mutton banquet, then looked at the Peng family's courtyard, and a puzzled expression appeared on their faces.
The neighbors who were attending the mutton banquet saw that these people were all of extraordinary status and felt ashamed of themselves. After greeting Li Cuihua, they left the courtyard.
