Jiang Pengji heard about Qiguan Rang inviting Yang Si to a banquet to make amends.
As the lord, she had yet to say anything, but the audience had already excitedly opened their bets.
Long Shui Xijiang: "Qiguan Rang wants to bribe little Rongrong with just one meal? Naive, childish, and overestimating himself. At least two meals! "
Nianzuozuzhidi: "Little Rongrong almost lost her life this time. One meal is definitely not enough."
Yu Shengfan: "The people above are all salted fish. No matter what, Yang Si is still a strategist. Have you ever seen a strategist change his stance for food?"
Some of the audience happily joined in the fun, while others were more realistic.
Whether it was Yang Si or Qiguan Rang, they were both intelligent white and black people, not kindergarten kids.
When kindergarten kids had a conflict, a lollipop could reconcile, and a big meal could make them as close as wearing a pair of pants.
These two white and black people had a conflict. Who knows, they might be at each other's throats from now on.
Of course, this was not what worried them the most. They were most worried that Qiguan Rang and Yang Si's discord would cause internal divisions in Wanzhou.
The audience raised their heads in anticipation, eager to know the final outcome. Jiang Pengji was also quite curious.
"I heard that Wenzheng asked Zixiao to cook yesterday?" Jiang Pengji said with a smile, "Zixiao's cooking skills are excellent. Jing Rong got lucky."
Qiguan Rang waved his feather fan lightly. When he heard Jiang Pengji mention yesterday's incident, his calm eyes stirred up some waves.
"Zixiao's cooking skills are indeed good. Even the royal chef is slightly inferior."
"If Jing Rong knew that the person who cooked was Zixiao, I'm afraid she would stick to him —"
As they spoke, Jiang Pengji saw a bullet screen.
Longan Babao Congee: "Didn't the ancients say that 'a gentleman should stay away from the kitchen'? Even if Zixiao's cooking skills are really good, isn't it a deliberate provocation for Qiguan Rang to ask Zixiao to cook? He felt a little uncomfortable at the thought. It was as if Qiguan Rang was using Zixiao as a cook.
According to the audience's understanding, Qiguan Rang's actions were inappropriate.
However —
He had really wronged Qiguan Rang.
Yin Yuejia Zhuge Qinmo: "What does' a gentleman should stay away from the kitchen 'have to do with cooking? If you want to say that it sounds hypocritical, I can understand. These words came from the Mencius. The original sentence was, "A gentleman is like a beast. When he sees it alive, he cannot bear to see it die. When he hears its sound, he cannot bear to eat its flesh. This is why a gentleman keeps his distance from the kitchen." In layman's terms, not entering the kitchen was because one did not want to hear the screams of livestock. This was because one would not have the heart to eat or kill. It was not to say that a gentleman should not cook. However, with the evolution of society, many words have been deliberately twisted. For example, "A woman's virtue is to have no talent." The original meaning has been twisted to the point that even his mother wouldn't recognize it.
Be it a gentleman or a villain, they all had to eat. Otherwise, they would have starved to death.
Qiguan Rang privately asked Wei Ci, who had excellent culinary skills, to help him. He did not mean to look down on him.
If it was really a humiliation, would Wei Ci foolishly agree?
Qiguan Rang did not know about the existence of the bullet screen and said, "My lord's prediction is correct. Zixiao has been entangled."
Jiang Pengji imagined the scene of Yang Si surrounding and intercepting Wei Ci in her mind. She could not help but laugh involuntarily.
After a moment of silence, Jiang Pengji suddenly opened her mouth.
"The blame for this disaster lies on me. This time, Wenzheng has been wronged. You have to take the blame for me. "
Jiang Pengji had asked for the declaration of war. Qiguan Rang had merely obeyed her orders.
If one wanted to nitpick, the most one could say was that Qiguan Rang's declaration of war was too hurtful, causing Xu Bei to fly into a rage out of humiliation.
In this matter, Jiang Pengji and Yang Si each had 50% of the responsibility. Qiguan Rang was merely an innocent bystander.
He did not do anything wrong, but he had to bear Yang Si's wrath. From Qiguan Rang's perspective, he felt rather wronged.
If Qiguan Rang and Yang Si quarreled, Jiang Pengji would not blame them.
She decisively admitted her mistake, causing Qiguan Rang to look at her in astonishment.
According to the mainstream thinking of the ancient times, it was impossible for the lord to be wrong. The only ones who were wrong were the officials.
Taking Jiang Pengji's case as an example, she felt that she was wrong. However, from the perspective of Qiguan Rang and the others, this was not the case.
As the conspirators, they did not discover the hidden dangers. They did not advise the lord in time, causing her to make a mistake. Hence, the responsibility was on them.
This logic was unreasonable in Jiang Pengji's eyes, but the others did not find anything wrong with it.
"If I'm wrong, I'm wrong. Do I look like the kind of person who will not admit to my crimes?" Jiang Pengji teased him with a smile. She and Qiguan Rang were not only the lord's officials but also good friends. They were quite casual when it did not involve official matters. She did not put on airs. "Do you want me to cook a meal for you personally?"
Qiguan Rang lowered his eyelids and said faintly, "My lord said that she was wrong, but I am innocent. Why do you have to punish me?"
Jiang Pengji did not react for a moment.
She only reacted after a while. Qiguan Rang was mocking her for her poor cooking skills. Eating the food she cooked was like being punished.
* * * * * * *!
Their friendship was over!
The reaction of the audience in the streaming room was even more unbridled. They changed their ways to ridicule Qiguan Rang. At the same time, they called Qiguan Rang like crazy.
These days, it was rare to see a subordinate who dared to directly contradict his own boss.
Toudu Feiqiu: "Boss Qiguan does not have a strong presence, but he is a boss. His EQ is high."
Laosiji Lianmeng: "Not only does Boss Qiguan have a high EQ, but he is also truly loyal to the streamer." If this happened to me, I would definitely be angry. Yang Si did not look for the culprit but attacked me instead. I am not going to take the blame for this. Once things get out of hand, it will not just be a conflict between two strategists. It will even shake the streamer's power. For example, choosing sides, forming cliques, and so on. " Boss Qiguan Rang must have known about this situation, so he took the initiative to take a step back. Yang Si also knew when to stop. Both of them took a step back. The world was clear.
Everyone understood this simple logic.
Which of the strategists was not a shrewd person?
But it was not easy to take a step back. This concerned one's face and dignity.
Many people knew that it was wrong to do so, but they would often be aggressive for their own interests.
For the sake of the overall situation and internal harmony, Qiguan Rang decisively took a step back. From this, one could see his breadth of mind and foresight.
The crisis that could have caused a conflict disappeared just like that. Only one person was very frustrated.
Wei Ci was targeted by Yang Si.
In order to avoid this glutton, Wei Ci could only escape to Jiang Pengji's place to hide.
"Such a glutton, sooner or later he will fall because of this …" Jiang Pengji commented.
Ever since Yang Si entered her camp, she had often commented on him like this.
Wei Ci said, "Isn't that so? He doesn't learn his lesson in two lifetimes … "
Fortunately, Jiang Pengji had already turned off the streaming room. Otherwise, Wei Ci's words would have blown up the audience.
Jiang Pengji had a smile in her eyes. She asked casually, "Why? Jing Rong has fallen because of this before?"
