After walking a few steps, Xie Zuo turned his head to Wang Xu to the side and asked, "Dare to ask where is the imperial food supervisor in the palace?" ”

"The Imperial Chef?" Wang Xuleng paused for a moment, and then reacted that he was probably talking about the dining room, so he said casually: "In the southwest of Dongnuan Pavilion, Xie Shilang is hungry?" Do you want the slave or maid to prepare some food? ”

Wang Xu's attitude is similar to that of Xie Zuoai when he ignored Xie Zuoai earlier. And this product can be transformed freely in front of the two faces, without the slightest embarrassment, which makes people have to admire, there are really many people in the deep palace!

Xie Zuo thought for a moment, leaned over and whispered in Wang Xu's ear. When he raised his head, he was meeting Wang Xu's surprised gaze.

"This is what Your Majesty meant, do you want to resist the decree?" Xie Zuo glanced at Wang Xu. A big hat is buttoned down, anyway, it is a big flag with a tiger skin, and it has the right not to expire.

Wang Xu opened his mouth, but after all, he didn't say a word, turned around and trotted away. Xie Zuo Shi Ran took a square step and returned to the side hall where the two brothers had answered before.

At this time, the two mud bodhisattvas were nowhere to be found, and Cao Zhi was the only one in the side hall, looking at the window curtains on one side boredly, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Seeing Cao Zhi, Xie Zuo rubbed two handfuls on his face, adjusted his expression of bitterness and hatred, walked quickly to Cao Zhi's side, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, disaster is coming!" ”

Hearing Xie Zuo's words, Cao Zhi was taken aback. After looking closely, I recognized that this person was the one who had just called "Wait". For Cao Zhi, in the entire Wei Imperial Palace, there are no more than five fingers worth looking at. A cat and a dog like Zhongshu Shilang, he usually doesn't even have the interest to take a second look. If it weren't for Xie Zuo's abrupt performance just now, he would definitely not have recognized who this person was at this time.

"Humph! Alarmist! Cao Zhi snorted from his nose and turned his head away. The clown who jumped out of nowhere, and dared to make a big statement in front of him, which Cao Dacai has always disdained.

Xie Zuo was stunned. How do you know I'm alarmist? I just look at many lobbyists in the history of others, and the first sentence I usually say when I meet is "a catastrophe is coming" or something like that, regardless of whether it is true or false, first bluff people, and then the flickering slowly unfolds. How can you take it yourself and use it, but get a mocking face?

However, the opening statement failed, and the rest of the words must be continued:

"Your Highness doesn't know anything, and you have already provoked Your Majesty's anger. His Royal Highness is erudite, don't you know the allusion of Zheng Boyu Duan? ”

Cao Zhi was also stunned when he heard this, and his face changed. Although he is simple-minded, it does not mean that he is stupid. In all fairness, the emperor treats himself well, but he doesn't believe that he has the intention of harming himself. But what this guy in front of him said, it may not be groundless, after all, it is about the supreme throne, who dares to guarantee that the emperor will not have other thoughts because of this? You must know that in history, for the sake of the throne, the tragedy of fratricide is not uncommon!

Seeing that Cao Zhi seemed to be moved, Xie Zuo smiled secretly in his heart. He didn't feel ashamed at all because of a stalk used twice, as long as it worked, let alone twice, it was ten times and a hundred times, so what's the matter?

"Your Majesty is suspicious of His Highness, and the disaster is close at hand." Xie Zuo decided to strike while the iron was hot, "Your Majesty was persuaded by the ministers to make Your Majesty's face a little palpitated." For the sake of His Royal Highness, you should also plan early and make up for it as soon as possible! ”

"Huh?" For the first time, Cao Zhi looked at this ant-like figure in the past: "What do you mean......?" ”

"His Royal Highness is quick in thinking and unparalleled in poetry, and his subordinates have always admired him. Why don't His Royal Highness present a poem in front of His Majesty, showing the deep brotherhood, and then the ministers can mediate it, or maybe they can make up for it a little? ”

Poetry? For Cao Zhi, it couldn't be simpler. But what kind of character is Cao Zijian? Relying on poetry to invite pets, I don't do it! If you want to rely on literary attainments to please the emperor, you don't know how many years ago you can do this, and you have to wait until now!

Why? With noble ambitions and a message of Taoism, how can you bow to the secular imperial power?

I have to say that sometimes the literati get angry with their books, which is really fatal!

Xie Zuo didn't know that his words had the opposite effect, and he continued to clamour:

"Your Highness, your subordinates have heard that everything is foreseen and will be wasted if you don't plan it, and it will take some thought to win Your Majesty's favor. For this reason, the ministers have specially prepared some props, Your Highness, please take a look! ”

Following the direction of Xie's left finger, Cao Zhi was stunned to find that several little eunuchs were struggling to carry a heavy object and slowly move in from outside the hall. Entering the main hall, the little eunuch put the thing down and smashed it on the smooth granite floor of the ground, and there was a dull thud!

If you look closely, it is a big tripod of five feet, nearly half a person high; There is an iron hoop under the big ding, and there is a brazier under the iron hoop. At this moment, there was a charcoal fire burning in the brazier, and some plant rhizomes were piled up in the charcoal fire. The rhizomes, which have not yet completely lost their moisture, are scorched by the tongue of fire, and there is a crackling sound from time to time. And in the cauldron, something was boiling, a large mass of yellow and green, with a sticky feeling, gurgling and steaming, and from time to time there were one or two uncooked beans tumbling in it, and it was gone.

Everyone in the hall was speechless. Not only Cao Zhi was stunned, but even in the corners of the palace, there were many heads in helmets and armor, and they couldn't stop probing their brains.

It's not that this thing is uncommon, on the contrary, it is precisely because it is so common that everyone is inexplicably surprised!

Isn't this the bean custard that you eat every day? Everyone has seen bean soup, but with the bean soup that is being cooked in a pot, I'm afraid not many people have seen it, after all, the master taught everyone to cook far away! It's nothing, I've never eaten pork and I've always seen pigs run! It's not an uncommon thing. But the key is, who has ever seen the pot enter the house in a grand manner? Not to mention, this is a dignified Wei Palace!

In fact, Xie Zuo was also taken aback when he saw Dading. With such a big pot, is it necessary to cook a big pot of rice for all the people in the palace? In other words, is this black pot bottom really reliable in the hall? This made him suspicious: the allusion said that Cao Zhi was forced by Cao Pi to limit seven steps to become a poem, but he happened to see beans boiling in the house, which led to the allusion of boiling beans and burning beans. But when he saw such a big pot, Xie Zuo reacted, who would cook beans in the house and play? This, this is a bit too fake, isn't it?

Of course, this thought only turned in his mind for a moment before he was banished. The top priority is to get the task done first. As for the real history, it has nothing to do with him.

Xie Zuo fixed his mind and said to Wang Xu:

"Trouble the prince, go and invite Your Majesty to come."

When Wang Xu walked away, Xie Zuo lowered his voice and said to Cao Zhi:

"Your Highness, according to the opinion of the ministers, the brotherhood is directly expressed in the verses, which is inevitably inferior. It is better to do the method of borrowing things to metaphor people, and the words "brother" and "brother" are not seen in the whole poem, but the truth is full of truth, which is the best work. For this reason, His Majesty specially prepared for His Royal Highness, so he asked His Highness to take the theme of bean soup and bean sprouts, and wait for His Majesty to come and present a masterpiece. If you want to come to His Royal Highness's talent, just a few verses, it should be a problem! ”
