Chapter 457: The Tao is Different

There are really people in this world who don't like to be officials and love to cook!

Princess Yongping has always been calm and calm, but at this moment, she only feels that the tower of cognition that she has always been ingrained in is slowly collapsing. Although after the second prince and the eldest prince had accidents one after another, she knew that the layer of dignified and noble female masks that she piled up in order to make herself appear useful was actually not much necessary, but if she pretended to be too long, sometimes it became a habit.

Therefore, although she admired the mind and craftsmanship of the Song Juren in front of her, she was extremely incomprehensible to the reckless behavior of people who planned to give up the imperial examination, and what made her even more unbelievable at this time was that the two choices proposed by Zhu Ying obviously represented a very good opportunity, but Song Juren was unwilling to do so, and chose the second one straightforwardly!

She knows better than Zhu Ying about the life experience of the two of them and Zhang Shou born on the same year, the same month and the same day, and she can't help but have a respect for Zhang Shou, even if this person has suddenly become a celebrity in front of her father since she was born, and her appearance and demeanor are unparalleled in the world, but she has always prided herself on not looking at the skin to see the inside. However, Zhang Shou is really good to the people around him, there is no doubt about this.

Look at Zhang Chen, Lu Sanlang, Zhang Wu, Zhang Lu and a bunch of other people who were once thought to be the sons of gentlemen!

As long as Song Juren nods, he will be able to borrow Zhang Yuan in the future, and then the building near the water will be the first to get the moon, not to mention that Zhang Shou can easily take someone to make a familiar face in front of an emperor like Ge Yong, maybe he will have the opportunity to meet his father, isn't it much better than this young man who gave up on himself and decided that he couldn't pass the Jinshi exam and went to open a sugar water shop?

The more Princess Yongping thought about it, the more irritable she became, and the more irritable she became, the more she felt that the young man in front of her was really a good opportunity, and immediately said coldly: "Zhu Ying, you don't have to worry about eating by yourself, you are rich and self-sufficient, of course, you don't take people's future as a thing, but have you ever thought that now Song Juren seems to be happy for a while, what about the future?" ”

She stared at Song Juren, who was overjoyed just now, and was quickly taking back this expression at this moment, and said word by word: "In life, not everyone can do what they want and reckless of the consequences, Song Juren should know this." Since you've participated in a royal chef contest and you've gotten along with your wishes, you have to plan for the future! ”

"Do you think it's easy to set up a shop in a place like the capital? In addition to those who own many shops and can enjoy food and clothing by collecting rent every year, how many other people who rent shops to do business, do you know how many can make money? How many barely make ends meet? How many have gone out of business? Zhu Ying just said that she can lend you money to operate, but will you really not pay back the money? ”

"No, it won't." Song Juren simply shook his head neatly. Princess Yongping gave such a long lesson, but he only answered the last question. And after hearing this answer, Princess Yongping didn't have time to show a relieved expression, only to see this young man who seemed to him a little dumbfounded suddenly became solemn.

"Princess, my family has a large population, in fact, it is not bad for me to be such a lifter, the reason why the family wants to force me to take the Jinshi exam, is just to let the Jinshi archway erected near the ancestral hall have one more piece. To tell the truth, my cousins and cousins are all jinshi, even if I am a little, but I am a lifter, better than other brothers, even if I go to open a store, others will at most shake their heads and sigh that I am a plaything. ”

"As for what the princess will do when she says she can't open the shop and closes down...... Then I'll go to the Jinshi exam again. ”

Seeing that Princess Yongping looked at her as if she was looking at a madman, Song Juren scratched his head and said with a smile: "The imperial court will not restrict people who have passed through business to be admitted to the Jinshi, right?" If you don't pass the exam, forget it, and if you pass the exam, I will tell my illness and not become an official, so as not to harm others. Well, at that time, I will be able to receive the subsidy given to the jinshi by the clan, and the savings of two or three years should be enough to repay the money. ”

Can it still be like this?

Zhang Shou almost burst into laughter, he just thought this guy was really funny. At this moment, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of someone coming up at the staircase, and when he saw that it was Lu Sanlang in front, Hua Siye and Wan Yuan Bao in the back, he couldn't help but move in his heart. But he didn't think much about it, but turned his eyes back to Song Juren and asked with a smile: "Oh, are you willing to be a rice worm all the time receiving subsidies like this?" ”

"There is a way that is not a hit, and it is a blockbuster. There is a way that the hidden dragon is in the abyss, and Tengbi will be nine days. I'm just hibernating, hibernating. When I have saved enough money, I will continue to open the restaurant! Since I can make the princess and everyone think that my cooking is delicious, I don't believe that I can't open it, and I don't believe that I can't make a name for people to see! ”

The more Song Juren spoke, the more impassioned he became, and finally straightened his chest, the courage not to break Loulan's oath and not to return it, people who didn't know thought that it was the oath before the test, not the determination before the store was opened...... And the reason he came up with next also made Ge Yong almost spray tea again after hearing it.

"Anyway, our Song family is also famous in Guangdong, and it is very easy for me to go to my fellow villagers to fight the autumn breeze and ask for money!"

"It's not just fame. The Song family in Guangdong not only has the largest fleet in Guangdong, but also is the richest man in Guangdong, and is famous. ”

As soon as Hua Siye spoke, he saw that a lot of eyes were instantly focused on himself, he stepped forward and bowed respectfully, and then said apologetically: "In the past, this Song Gongzi followed his uncle through Suzhou, I saw him once, just now the princess summoned him, when he passed by the second floor, I looked a little familiar, and I couldn't help but beg Lu Sangongzi to bring me up." ”

Wan Yuan Bao suddenly coughed: "Fourth Master Hua just said that I saw that Song Gongzi was a little familiar, as if he was an acquaintance, I was curious for a while, so I cheekily followed him upstairs to have a look." The others just dispersed, and the guards at the stairs on the second floor heard that we were following Lu Sangongzi up, so they opened the net and asked the princess and the adults to forgive the trespassing. ”

And the little fat man who was the last to speak, his face was full of smiles: "Teacher, princess, lords, I also asked about the identity and origin of Chef Song, I was so curious, so I came up to see the excitement." After all, it is also a legend to publicize this matter, and the dignified people came to the selection of the imperial chef in person, and even defeated a large number of chefs in one fell swoop to enter the semi-finals! ”

"Shut up!"

Princess Yongping, who was already very angry, finally exploded at this time: "Lu Sanfat, you said it lightly!" If these words are preached, you are not afraid that he will be criticized by the people? He himself just said that the people in his family want him to study and become a scholar, and they don't want him to bend over to become a cook......"

"I don't think I'm a cook, I just like it." Song Juren couldn't help but bump into Princess Yongping again, "The news spreads, if I open a store like this again, others will come to patronize even if they are just curious, right?" Wouldn't I be able to usher in a big wave of customers? I don't care about verbal criticism, the ancestor of my Song family, who laid the foundation, also abandoned his pen to go into business! ”

Xiucai met Bing, and he couldn't explain it clearly. Princess Yongping only felt powerless and ashamed at this time.

She is used to those scholars being ecstatic after receiving her rewards, accustomed to those talented people obeying her advice, and used to some people's yang and yin disobedience, and even Zhang Shou is not a stranger to respecting and staying away, after all, there are a group of people who disagree with a princess like her.

But she has never met anyone who dares to fight with her and forget her noble status!

Just when Princess Yongping, who was in a fit of rage, almost wanted to walk away, she heard Song Juren muttering in a low voice: "Zifei fish, the joy of knowing fish?" There are many self-motivated people in this world, and there are also many people who are not self-motivated, such as me. Since there is no shortage of money in the family, and there is no shortage of me as an official, I will live for myself, can't I? ”

Live for myself...... These few words were like a huge hammer, smashing into the heart of Princess Yongping. She almost couldn't help but sit down in her chair, thinking about what she had done in the years since she knew her background and realized her mother's predicament.

She is cautious, she seeks a way out for herself between rules and proportions, she doesn't want to marry a strange man casually, marry and teach children, and she doesn't want her always proud but strong mother to fall into the dust after a prince ascends the throne. So, she decided to protect not only herself, but also her mother, and never marry herself off for the sake of temporary comfort......

Think about her all these years, how can she live for herself, even a moment?

Why has she always been on the tip of the needle with Zhu Ying, and she can't coexist peacefully every time, isn't it because she envies Zhu Ying's free and easy life, and envy Zhu Ying has always been held in the palm of her hand by her father, brother and elders? Her father has always been good enough to her, and her mother has always been very protective of her, but she has never been insecure, so she hates people who lack a sense of crisis the most!

For example, Zhu Ying, and this guy who has obviously passed the exam, but he doesn't know how to cherish it!

Tears couldn't help but burst out of her eyes, and when Princess Yongping stood up and stumbled out while wiping her tears with her sleeve, everyone who had just been just interested in watching this dispute suddenly looked at each other. And Chu Kuan was also stunned and hurriedly chased after him, and when he saw Princess Yongping holding on to the railing to go down the stairs, he felt even more tricky. Fortunately, at this time, a figure rushed ahead.

"Hey, it's just a matter of arguing, aren't you?" It was none other than Zhu Ying who rushed up and grabbed Princess Yongping, seeing that people were shaking their sleeves to break free of themselves, but they didn't say a word, she was about to get angry, but thinking that today was their birthday, she couldn't help but soften her heart again, and simply helped people downstairs.

"I'm not careful when I walk, what if I fall? It's someone else's business, what are you angry about! He doesn't want a future for himself, that's his own business, do you usually see too many people who pursue fame and fortune, so you can't get used to him? Others are living, what are you angry about! It's a good birthday, you just cry like a big cat! ”

"Zhu Ying, if you don't speak, no one will treat you as a dumb person!"

Hearing Zhu Ying's persuasion of the bull's head and the horse's mouth, as well as Princess Yongping's retort in anger, Zhang Shou couldn't help but look at the overwhelmed Song Juren, and then said with a smile: "Song Gongzi, your temperament to live as you want seems to make the princess angry. She's probably never seen someone as unmotivated as you in her life. ”

This is not to seek progress The four words were said by Song Juren himself just now, and at this time he was thrown back by Zhang Shou like this, although he was a little depressed, but after touching his nose, he didn't say anything. After all, he has a weak heart, and this little person of himself actually stirred up the good birthday of the princess of the family, and ran away from the people, this won't cause any big trouble, right?

After thinking about it, he finally whispered, "Or...... I'm going to cook a dessert for the princess to comfort him? ”

At that moment, there was silence upstairs, as if there was an indescribable cool breeze swirling by. After a long time, Zhang Shoucai couldn't help but cover his head and sighed: "Song Gongzi, you are sometimes very slow to look, but sometimes you are very sharp. But can you use your acumen in the right place? ”

If you are a chef, she will be very happy to cook a delicious dessert to please Princess Yongping at this time; But you're such a non-motivated person to go to the chef...... Don't you think it's not comforting, but deliberately working against people?

Chu Kuan stayed to see what Princess Yongping's situation was at this time, and he couldn't help but smile at this moment. He looked at this Song Juren with a subtle face, and saw that his face was clear, but there was a laziness and confusion between his eyebrows, he couldn't help but move in his heart, and then smiled and said to the four seats: "Since the princess is not happy, I will escort the princess back to the palace first." ”

Lu Sanlang saw that Chu Kuan went downstairs like this, and several little eunuchs followed, he rushed to the staircase and looked down, and then he blatantly pricked up his ears to listen. Hearing that Chu Kuan was talking to Princess Yongping, and the princess obviously didn't even want to speak, she just walked down with a hum, and he immediately glanced back at Song Juren.

Immediately after, he gave people a thumbs up.

Just like only the eldest prince and the second prince in the capital occasionally provoke Zhu Ying, except for the two of them, absolutely no one in this capital will provoke Princess Yongping, even the former queen! Because the emperor will stand up for it!

Song Juren was completely at a loss at Lu Sanlang's thumbs-up gesture. What made him even more confused was that at this time, he finally saw clearly the tables of people upstairs, a table of old men in their seventies and eighties, a table of middle-aged and elderly people, a table of old men and monks, and a table of ...... It was Princess Yongping who had just sat down, but at this moment only the graceful young man who was talking to him was left.

Because of the relationship between how many people said, he also guessed that it was Zhang Shou at this time. And it was such a four-table person, looking at his expression at this time, his expression was so weird that he patted his forehead vigorously, and then asked pitifully: "Then what should I do next?" ”

Princess Yongping, who summoned me, is gone!

Zhang Shou was about to speak, but he didn't expect Hua Siye next to him to suddenly stuff a bag, and then said with a smile on his face: "Dr. Zhang, there are some overseas seeds here, a friend of mine got them, and there is a piece of paper in it, which indicates what it probably is, but I can't eat it for sure, and I have no intention of taking care of this, so I borrowed flowers to offer the Buddha as a birthday gift to you." ”

After saying this, without waiting for Zhang Shou to refuse, Hua Siye said with a smile: "I'll ask for a favor for Song Gongzi again, he is a heartless person, if you really offend Princess Yongping, can you and Miss Zhu help him talk?" ”
