A year is not a long time, nor is it short, but it is enough to change many things.

A year ago, after Yan Lu and Han Xuan returned to Beijing to live in the palace together, he found that although it was the palace, the total number of people waiting in the huge mansion was only five. Among them, there is a porter, a gardener, and a cook, all of whom are old men in their fifties. The remaining one person is a nurse, although he was born burly and majestic, but unfortunately he is a cripple with a wound on his foot, it is said that he was tired of joining the army and fighting when he was young, and it is because of this that he retired, and he had no relatives at home, and when he had nowhere to go, he was brought back by Han Xuan.

For these people, Han Xuan's explanation was: "Anyway, there is no one in this mansion all the year round, and now only you and I live together, but there are two or three rooms of land, why do you need so many servants?" You can bump into it wherever you go, get in the way, and it's annoying and tiring. ”

Her expression was impatient, but he knew that she was kind-hearted, after all, according to her temperament, if she really didn't want to, there would not be a subordinate in this house, not to mention some old people who were immobile and would only nest in the chair to bask in the sun and drink tea and chat every day.

It's just a rickety form, a single figure only staggering on the street, and when she sees it, she can't put it down.

So in the end, the chores in the house could only be taken over by Qingzhu and Qiu Ju, and after tasting a salty meal that could kill people, Yanlu also took over the position of cook, and the old men were all idle.

In addition to the affairs in the palace, Yanlu also took over all the properties under Han Xuan's name, she has always disliked to take care of these things, and when Han Mao was still there, he was also managed by a trustworthy old servant Uncle Zhang, anyway, the expenses of daily life do not depend on these, so as long as it is not too exaggerated and wasted, it can fool the past.

Han Xuan saw that he was interested in those business accounts, so he summoned Uncle Zhang, and after explaining that everything would be managed by Yanlu in the future, he completely ignored it.

With Han Xuan's trust and Zhang Bo's assistance, his words and laws are like a fish in water, and his ambition and ideas, coupled with Uncle Zhang's experience, have actually made the industry under Han Xuan's name prosperous, and it is very prosperous.

However, the proud words and laws in the workplace have been very distressed recently, and what can make him care so much is not a second person except Han Xuan.

"So, you called me out?" Xu Yu raised his eyebrows and looked at the man opposite, while picking up the nearest milk tea and looking up to drink a cup. "Speaking of which, you really have the ability, although you have Han Xuan's help, but after all, it is the capital, and it is the most chaotic West Market, you can gain a foothold so quickly, and have such a big restaurant, not everyone can do it."

The west market of the capital is the largest market for merchants from all over the world to trade special goods in Beijing, where there is no restriction on race, nationality, or identity, and there are all kinds of people such as 369, because of this, the people here can not be regulated by normal laws at all, but they tacitly abide by their own set of 'laws', and everyone gets along with each other.

"Everywhere, it's all the Son of Heaven Shengming, and God bless it." smiled lightly, in exchange for the other party's hypocrisy, he didn't care about a roll of his eyes, but slowly said his purpose.

It turned out that after Han Xuanguan was reinstated, although he was an idle prince, he also needed to get up at three o'clock every day and enter the palace at the same time, in addition, the rest of the time was either to occasionally drink and have fun with a few friends or stay in the palace martial arts training ground to practice martial arts, but in the past few days, as soon as she came back, she locked herself in the study, muffled, ** hour, it was really sad.

"But," interrupted him, "you and she are husband and wife, inseparable all day long, and you don't see anyone when you look up, and since you don't even know about it, how can I know?" ”

She was right, but even if he and Han Xuan were with him day and night, there would always be times when he couldn't take care of it, and Han Xuan, if she wanted her to complain to herself, it would be really more difficult than ascending to the sky, so he could only rely on promises to help.

"What I don't know about Han Xuan is only in the court. And you're an official with her, have you noticed her abnormality? ”

When Xu Promise heard this, he secretly muttered a sentence of 'selfish control of the perverted maniac', and his face was lacking in interest, and he said wistfully: "The affairs of the court, sometimes it may be a random sentence leaked out, and it may be an important secret for the head to the ground and the corpse floating for hundreds of miles, not to mention, the people don't say anything, understand?" ”

She spread her hands out, looking 'I'm also thinking about you', lowered her head and swallowed two more cups of milk tea, and was about to get up.

He didn't stop him, just clapped his hands three times, and the door was opened, and the interracial dancers in different costumes rushed in and put the delicacies on the table one by one.

"Hand-grilled mutton, naan wrapped meat, oil tart, spicy red, oily meat noodles, large plate of chicken, yogurt gnocchi, milk grapes, purple grapes, pomegranate, cantaloupe!" Xu Yu involuntarily sat back down, stared at those things and swallowed, then raised his head to look at the man, "Are you bribing court officials?" ”

"That's not true." Yanlu showed a very sincere smile, "Isn't the contact between friends just eating, drinking, chatting?" If money is bribed with money, it will inevitably hurt feelings. ”

Xu Yu pursed his lips, suddenly smiled, and the dimples on the corners of his mouth were faint, "Yes, yes, that's how it is between friends, I really like you the most!" ”

"Who do you like again?" The door was suddenly opened, and the man standing outside the door swept the room, but when he saw a leg of mutton holding a leg of mutton and gnawing happily, his face was full of oily promises, and the amorous Feng'er's eyes immediately cooled a little.

Xu Promise subconsciously hid the leg of mutton behind him, wiped the corner of his mouth with his hand, and smiled weakly: "That, Qiao Mu, what a coincidence." Well, none of these foods are spicy, so my stomach problems won't attack. ”

Qiao Mu frowned and snorted coldly, "You also know that you are sick?" A few steps forward, he picked up a handkerchief and wiped the corners of the man's mouth, and as soon as he pulled her up, she was about to leave.

Looking at the little eyes that promised to be reluctant to say more, Yan Lu reminded him very 'kindly', "It's just a table to eat, both for friends, if you like it, just come, I will definitely prepare it all for you." ”

"Really? Ah, you're so good! ”

Yanlu's words received a promised thanks, but at the same time, he was also glared at unceremoniously by someone, and he touched his nose innocently.

When the two men left, he ordered all the things to be removed, leaving only a book and a pot of warm water for himself, and poured himself a drink, as if waiting for something.

Half an hour later, the door of the house was opened, and the man was the arbor who had gone and returned.
