Zhu Houwei circulated his internal strength, his body moving like a cloud.
In the blink of an eye, they arrived outside the imperial kitchen.
Before he even got close to the imperial kitchen, he heard an old but powerful voice from afar.
"The old beggar only stole a few of your dishes, and you're already shouting and killing me. What a stingy person!”
The people in the palace naturally could not believe it.
How could he risk his life to break into the Forbidden City just to steal a few dishes?
He must have wanted to take the opportunity to poison the current Emperor!
When Zhu Houwei heard this, he slowed down.
He had already guessed who the old man in the imperial kitchen was.
However, he was not sure yet!
The imperial guards surrounding the imperial kitchen hurriedly bowed when they saw Zhu Houwei.
"Your humble servant greets Your Highness!"
"Have you found out who this thief is?" Zhu Houwei nodded.”
The imperial guard looked embarrassed." Reporting to Your Highness, that thief was wearing a night-traveling suit. His beard and hair were not exposed. We have not…not found out his identity yet!"”
"This is such a huge palace. Are the guards all a bunch of useless people? You can't even catch a thief!"
" This…" The imperial guards looked at each other.
They explained,"Your Highness, that black-clothed man's palm force is strong and masculine. He must be famous in Jianghu."”
"Lord Chief has already ordered the Divine Arms Battalion to come over. As long as we capture him, we will definitely be able to find out his identity!”
"Your Highness, please wait a moment!"
"By the time the Divine Arms Battalion arrives, he'll have eaten his fill and left!" Zhu Houwei frowned.”
He strode into the imperial kitchen.
One of the muscular guards hurriedly shouted,"Your Highness, you can't do that. That thief's strength is extraordinary. Your Highness has such a noble status, why must you go personally?”
Zhu Houwei waved his hand, not taking it to heart.
The guard wanted to speak again, but he was stopped by the guards around him.
"Why are you pulling me?" the guard asked anxiously."Why aren't you stopping His Highness?"”
"If anything happens to His Highness, you and I will not be able to escape death!”
Another guard slapped him and said,""Big Li, what do you know? His Highness was a great grandmaster of Celestial Being Realm!”
"Dealing with the little thieves inside will definitely be easy!”
"Grandmaster?" Big Li shouted.
"How is that possible? When His Royal Highness broke through to Houtian realm third stage, it was the brothers who protected him!”
He looked around and said in a low voice,"With your talent, how could you suddenly break through to Celestial Being Realm?"”
The other guards looked at Zhu Houwei's back in admiration and said,""It wasn't your turn to be on duty the day before yesterday, so you naturally don't know!”
"On the night of the full moon, Sword God Ximen Chuixue and Sword Saint Ye Gucheng gathered in the Forbidden City and were subdued by His Highness!”
"Suppress the summit of the forbidden city with the snap of a finger!”
They looked proud, as if they were honored.
Big Li looked excited and said,"God bless Da Ming! God bless Da Ming!"
……
Zhu Houwei walked into the imperial kitchen and found a man in black sitting cross-legged on the beam.
She was holding a few plates in her hands, occasionally stuffing food into her mouth from under her mask.
He even smacked his lips from time to time!
Obviously, he was eating with relish!
And the group of armed guards could not get close!
"Who exactly are you?" Zhu Houwei asked in a deep voice.”
"If you don't dare to show your true face to others, aren't you afraid of being laughed at if word gets out?”
The man in black on the beam glanced at Zhu Houwei and snorted,""The old beggar is stealing things now, so he naturally can't show his true face to others!”
"Anyway, you don't know who I am. Who can laugh at me?”
Zhu Houwei sized up his palms.
His palm was wide and thick, his bones were thick, and his veins were bulging.
His physical skills had clearly reached the peak of perfection!
The only thing missing was his right index finger!
He had always called himself an old beggar who loved food as much as his life, and now he was missing a finger.
Zhu Houwei had already guessed the identity of the man in black.
It was the Nine-fingered God Beggar, Hong Qigong!
"Although you're wearing a mask, your hands won't lie."”
"Beggar's Sect Master, Nine-fingered Divine Beggar, Hong Qigong!”
The man in black subconsciously looked at his hands.
He slapped his forehead and sighed.
He seemed to regret forgetting to cover his hands!
He tore off the mask on his face and shouted,""This old beggar doesn't change his name and doesn't change his surname.”
"Little fellow, even if you know the identity of this old beggar, what can you do?”
"This old beggar is already full. I won't play with you anymore!”
Hong Qigong threw away the plate in his hand and planned to leave.
Zhu Houwei did not stop him.
He said," I heard that the Beggar's Sect's Hong Qigong has killed more than 200 people in his life. All of them are treacherous and unfaithful people. He can be called a hero!"”
Hong Qigong suddenly stopped in his tracks.
His face was full of smiles.
He seemed to be very proud that others knew about this!
" But Seventh Duke Hong loves delicious food as much as his life."It even delayed a major event!”
Hong Qigong continued to sit cross-legged on the beam and let out a long sigh.
"Kid, you're very clear about the old beggar's matters."”
"That's right. This old beggar has never done anything guilty in his life.”
"This old beggar caused a Jianghu hero to lose his life because of his greed!”
"Thus, I severed one finger to warn myself!”
When everyone heard this, they all revealed looks of admiration.
He didn't hide his mistakes at all. He was really magnanimous!
"Sect Leader Hong led the disciples of Beggar's Sect to resist the soldiers of the surrounding small countries and saved countless civilians.”
"This matter alone is enough to make this king admire you!”
"Gang Leader Hong wants to find some delicacies, so why do you have to be such a gentleman? This king will entertain Gang Leader Hong in the imperial kitchen today!”
"Is that true?" Hong Qigong jumped down from the beam, his face filled with joy.
"Of course!" Zhu Houwei instructed the imperial kitchen to prepare all kinds of delicacies.
He truly admired Hong Qigong.
Over the years, Beggar's Sect had saved countless border civilians!
Even if the disciples of the sect fought, the flaws could not obscure the merits!
" Haha!" Hong Qigong clapped his hands and laughed loudly." This old beggar can tell at first glance that you're completely different from those stingy people outside!"”
"The other delicacies don't matter. If there's a mandarin duck five delicacies stew, this old beggar will be in luck!”
Zhu Houwei clapped his hands, and the royal chefs brought out all kinds of delicacies.
"Of course. My Great Ming is vast and has all kinds of delicacies!”
Hong Qigong ate and drank in a very relaxed manner.
He had never thought that he would one day be able to openly enjoy delicious food in the Imperial Palace!
He found Zhu Houwei more pleasing to the eye.
She even had the thought of becoming sworn brothers with him!
After a long while, Hong Qigong let out a long sigh and said,""This old beggar is finally full!"
"Thank you for your hospitality, Your Highness. This old beggar will leave now!”
"Wait!" "This king admires Sect Leader Hong for saving the people, so I'm presenting you with delicious food!" Zhu Houwei said.”
"But today, you trespassed into the Forbidden City. If you don't give an explanation, it will be difficult for you to leave!”
