The spring test is getting closer and closer, and in the past few days, all kinds of things related to investment banking have been spread throughout Chang'an City, such as whose son-in-law has done a good job, what good poems that scholar has written, and so on. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

In this ever-changing Chang'an City, talented people always have a chance to get ahead, no matter which way they go.

Tang Zhou was very interested in the people behind Lian Hongyao, so he also paid a lot of attention to who appreciated He Lianshan, but when the spring test was about to start, he didn't hear anyone particularly appreciate He Lianshan.

What's even more strange is that although Na Cen Wenwen and Yang Shidao would select one or two outstanding people from those who had submitted the scrolls to them every day, they never mentioned He Lianshan, as if they had not received He Lianshan's scrolls at all, or they couldn't even look at them.

Just when Tang Zhou was strange about these things, Eldest Sun Wen suddenly took Duan Jue, Cheng Chumo and others to Tang Hou's Mansion.

After a few people entered the Tang Hou Mansion, the eldest grandson Wen spoke: "Brother Tang, you have to go to the Eight Immortals Residence with us at noon today." ”

Tang Zhou was a little strange and said, "The Eight Immortals Residence is the most famous inn in Chang'an City, I don't know what you have to ask me to do?" ”

"Today, the officials in charge of this year's spring examination and the knowledgeable Hanlin of the court are going to have a dinner in the Eight Immortals, and many sons of the family will find a relationship to climb up to an official or Hanlin for the sake of eyeballs, and this year my father is the chief examiner, thinking about how such a lively thing can be missing Brother Tang, so this is here."

Hearing Changsun Wen's explanation, Tang Zhou sighed, it can be regarded as understanding, in fact, in any era, a dinner party is a kind of thing that Chinese people are very accustomed to.

Now, the knowledgeable people of the court middle school are about to preside over this year's spring examination, so before the spring examination, everyone sits together to probe each other to see whose disciple you like, and who I value, which is also normal.

If you meet a few people who have been secretly competing, you may have to take out their proud protégés to compete, the winner is full of joy, and the loser is secretly exerting force.

Thinking of these, Tang Zhou thought to himself that such a gathering must be very lively, and it would be good to go and see it, and most importantly, such a gathering, Cen Wenwen and Yang Shidao would definitely go, and it would be good if they could find out some things about He Lianshan from their mouths.

And just when Tang Zhou was about to agree, Cheng Chumo smiled: "I said Brother Eldest Sun, what do you have to deceive Brother Tang about this, it's fake to join in the fun, but it's true that you want Brother Tang to cook a dish, this party was proposed by your father, if there is a delicious dish that everyone remembers, wouldn't it give you a long face for this banquet?" ”

Cheng Chumo was very grinning, and what he said was not polite at all, the eldest grandson Wen frowned slightly, and his cheeks suddenly turned pale, and at this time, Cheng Chumo said again: "My father often does this, Brother Tang has never shirked, but you want Brother Tang to go to the Eight Immortals Residence to cook today, it is a bit unkind, who doesn't know that Brother Tang is going to open an inn in the West Market, and then he will be an opponent with the Eight Immortals, do you think it is appropriate for Brother Tang to go?" Besides, Brother Tang went, what did the cook of the Eight Immortals House think? ”

Hearing Cheng Chumo say such a thing, both Changsun Wen and Tang Zhou were a little surprised, Cheng Chumo didn't have such a mind in the past, could it be that someone else secretly taught him to say this, but who is this person?

Although the eldest grandson Wen and Tang Zhou were strange, they didn't say it directly, and the eldest grandson Wen was only slightly embarrassed, and said: "It's that I didn't think it through, and I asked Brother Tang not to be surprised, but my father has already told a few friends about it, and Lord Fang Xuanling Fang went to the Eight Immortals Residence for Brother Tang's food, if you don't do it, this ...... This ......"

"What is this, Brother Tang can't do it." Cheng Chumo was resolute at this time, but Tang Zhou smiled and said, "It's okay, as long as the chef of the Eight Immortal Residence has no opinions, it's okay to make one or two dishes." ”

Cheng Chumo frowned slightly, and was about to speak, but the eldest grandson Wen hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Thank you Brother Tang in this way, Brother Tang has saved his father's face, and in the future, my father will have to care more about Brother Tang, but what my father wants Brother Wen to make is chicken soup ramen, I don't know if it's okay?" ”

As soon as he heard that it was chicken soup ramen, Cheng Chumo couldn't help but move his index finger, this noodle Tang Zhou taught him the chef of Chengfu, but the hand-pulled noodle kung fu was difficult to make noodles without practicing for a few years, so Cheng Chumo always felt that the ramen made by his own chef was not tasteful enough, and he thought about when he could eat Tang Zhou's own cooking, and now, this is a good opportunity.

Thinking of the problems that Tang Zhou might face after he went, he immediately objected in his heart, but at this time, Tang Zhou had already nodded and agreed: "Naturally, there is no problem, but I have already made chicken soup ramen for the saint, and if I make it with the ministers of the court, it is inevitable that it is not suitable, how about making mutton ramen?" ”

Although he knew that Li Shimin was broad-minded and could not cure his own sins because of a bowl of noodles, Tang Zhou felt that it was better to try to avoid the royal habits, if he gave these ministers everything the emperor ate, would Li Shimin's sense of superiority still exist?

As for Tang Zhou's proposal, Changsun Wen naturally has no opinion.

After saying this, the eldest grandson Wen and Duan Jue rode in front, and Tang Zhou followed Cheng Chumo behind, on the way, Cheng Chumo was a little puzzled: "Brother Tang, although you don't lose face by cooking now, how can you go to the Eight Immortals Residence to cook, you want to open an inn in the West Market, and then you will definitely be troubled by the chefs of the Eight Immortals Residence, and besides, most of the people present are my Confucians, they have never looked down on the cooks, you go to cook at this time, isn't it self-defeating." ”

Cheng Chumo said heartbreakingly, as if Tang Zhou went to the Eight Immortals Residence to cook, as if he had lost his person, and Tang Zhou sat on horseback and walked slowly, and after Cheng Chumo finished speaking, he suddenly asked: "These are the words of Brother Cheng?" ”

"This ...... What does Brother Tang mean, do you still doubt my sincerity? ”

Tang Zhou smiled and shook his head: "That's not true, I just think it's too strange for Brother Cheng to say this to me, as if someone taught you." As he spoke, Tang Zhou suddenly lowered his voice and asked, "Who told you these words?" ”

Cheng Chumo was taken aback, but he didn't panic much, after all, when the man told him this, he didn't say that he couldn't say this, so he met Tang Zhou's gaze and said: "When I came here today, I met Princess Danyang who went to the Eight Immortals Residence on the road, and she learned that I was here to invite you, so she said such a thing, what does she mean, you can go, but it's best not to cook." ”
