I pulled him back and laughed, "Forget it, don't go."
Li Dangshi was taken aback, "Why not go? Is that something a person can eat?"
I sighed and said, "It's fine as long as we can fill our stomachs."
Li Dangshi was quite indignant, saying, "That won't do! Just wait, I'll order something for you!"
After saying that, he stood up to leave, but I pulled him back.
Li Dangshi remarked, "As a commander, you should be more particular about your meals."
I shook my head, "I'm just a minor commander; as long as I can eat enough, there's no need to fuss over appearances."
Li Dangshi sighed and said, "Oh, you..."
Glancing at Li Dangshi, I couldn't help but chuckle inwardly; he was obviously doing this on purpose.
I knew Li Dangshi well; he loved to show off and always had to maintain his image.
Such attention-seeking behavior was something I would never engage in. I wouldn't want to draw suspicion over trivial matters.
But Li Dangshi was different; he thrived on recognition and was most interested in such things.
As expected, Li Dangshi didn't cause me any trouble; instead, he helped me save face.
Although Li Dangshi has some abilities, he is essentially a fool, and such people are best utilized.
As I ate, I pondered how to deal with Li Dangshi.
While I was eating, I suddenly saw Captain Zhuang Xian from the Divine Mechanism Department walk into the restaurant with two unfamiliar individuals.
The two people were strangers, but one of them had a somewhat familiar silhouette, as if I had seen him somewhere before.
After thinking carefully, I suddenly remembered who that person was.
He was the middle-aged man I had encountered in the Administrative Hall at Linfeng that day.
At that time, I felt that the middle-aged man looked somewhat familiar, but I couldn't recall where I had seen him.
Now I finally remembered; that person was Xu Yuanzheng!
I had seen Xu Yuanzheng from a distance before, which is why he seemed familiar to me.
Xu Yuanzheng is also a high-ranking official in the Minister of Military Affairs, second only to Lord Feng, making him the third most important figure in the Minister of Military Affairs.
Xu Yuanzheng's Intelligence Division and Execution Division are both secret organizations under the Military Affairs Office. The Intelligence Division is responsible for gathering and analyzing information, while the Execution Division handles task execution.
Although the Execution Division holds slightly less status than the Intelligence Division, its power is considerable and it is regarded as one of the important departments within the Minister of Military Affairs.
Xu Yuanzheng rarely makes public appearances, and this was my first time seeing him.
I only saw Zhuang Xian accompany Xu Yuanzheng and another person to the small dining room. I glanced over but didn't pay much attention and continued eating.
He had just taken a few bites when suddenly a voice came from behind him: "You must be Lord Ye Yifan of the Courier Camp, right?"
I was taken aback and turned to look, seeing a middle-aged man standing behind him, looking coldly at him.
This middle-aged man was in his thirties, of medium build, dressed in all black, with a serious expression on his face.
I stood up and smiled, saying, "That's me. May I ask who you are?"
The middle-aged man coldly replied, "My name is Xu Yuanzheng."
I was surprised; it really was Xu Yuanzheng!
He smiled slightly and said, "So it's Lord Xu who has graced us with his presence. I apologize for not welcoming you properly."
Xu Yuanzheng looked at me coldly and said, "Come with me; I have something to discuss with you."
I was taken aback but followed Xu Yuanzheng to an upstairs private room.
Inside the room were only Xu Yuanzheng, Zhuang Xian, and another person. Xu Yuanzheng sat in a chair while Zhuang Xian and the other person stood beside him.
