The wine flag was raised, and the business of Ruchun Restaurant really improved a lot.

The imperial kitchen is indeed very attractive to ordinary people. As for ordinary restaurants, they also want to use this to paste gold, but they are just pretending to be the master or uncle of the imperial chef, God knows what trouble will be caused, but Ruchun Restaurant is different, because Qin Shou is a genuine brand of imperial chef, so Ruchun Restaurant has this confidence.

At first, there were only a few people who came to try the fresh, but soon, they found that the dishes here had a unique flavor, and as soon as it spread to ten, ten to hundred, Ruchun Restaurant was full of friends.

Qin Shaoyou doesn't have the heart to worry about anything else now, he doesn't cook himself, he has taught Qin Shou for so long, so he naturally is the shopkeeper and puts this heavy responsibility on Qin Shou.

Deng Jian was in charge of running the hall, but his appearance was too vicious, which made Qin Shaoyou very dissatisfied.

Dissatisfaction is dissatisfaction, saving money is the most important thing, it is difficult to start a business, and money should be spent on the blade.

The business was finally on the right track, which made Qin Shaoyou breathe a sigh of relief, but his heart still fell in the palace, he was very depressed, it had been half a month, why was there no news in the palace? Could it be that his porridge and Songhua eggs are not enough to impress people's hearts?

So the young proprietor began to be depressed, every time the sky darkened, the diners left, he hurriedly settled the account in front of the counter, carefully put away the surplus, and then depressed back to his room, pushed open the window, looked out the window of the dark sky, against the hook of the silver moon, the night wind caressed the osmanthus tree outside the window, and then began to enter the mode of resentment.

"I don't see the ancients before, and I don't see the ones who come after. Thinking of the world and the world, I was alone and wept ......"

"The Xuan Room seeks to visit the ministers, Jia Shengcai is even more incoherent, pitiful in the middle of the night, he doesn't ask the sky to ask the ghosts and gods......"

I'm depressed......

Qin Shaoyou had a faint sadness, if there was no plaque, if there was no visit from Wu Zetian, Qin Shaoyou's ideal might just be to continue to maintain the restaurant, be rich and peaceful, find a wife, accept two concubines, and be a small proprietor happily. But when things changed in his life, his ambition grew, and he swelled a little, and when everything came to naught, he began to feel lost again.

Qin Shou has been cooking hard every day these days, and he is very happy, and he has not paid attention to his cousin's mental state, but Deng Jian found something strange, because he found that this young owner was more picky than before, and his attitude was very bad, and sometimes he lost his temper for no reason, as if he had a menstrual matter, but this menstrual event had inevitably taken too long.

………………

In Changming Palace.

The sky was already dark, and countless purple palace lights were shining, illuminating the hall brightly.

As usual at this time, Wu Zetian always wore a loose gauze skirt, half leaning on the couch, with her head resting on a red and bright silk pillow.

At this time, she closed her eyes, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and Shangguan Wan'er sat in front of the couch, her waist was covered by Wu Zetian's lotus feet, there was a small red lacquer table in front of Shangguan Wan'er, Zhuo Shang was a phoenix-shaped candlestick, and Shangguan Wan'er was holding a copy of "Huainanzi" to read aloud.

"The so-called Invisible One, one is also one; The so-called one ......"

She had been reading aloud for half an hour, and her mouth was dry, so she couldn't help but turn her eyes, glanced at Wu Zetian on the couch, and saw Wu Zetian closing his eyes, rising and falling in front of him, unmoved, so he couldn't help but whisper: "Your Majesty, shouldn't you go to bed?" ”

Seeing that Wu Zetian did not react, Shangguan Wan'er put down the book, crept up, and mouthed a few palace people, who knew how to come up and cover Wu Zetian with a thin quilt.

"Wan'er......" Wu Zetian's lips suddenly opened slightly, and he whispered Shangguan Wan'er's name.

Shangguan Wan'er thought that the Son of Heaven was already asleep, and at this time she hurriedly said, "What does Your Majesty command?" ”

Wu Zetian said: "I'm thinking about things. ”

Shangguan Wan'er sat back on the couch again, and said with a light smile: "Your Majesty, are you still thinking about the rebellion case of Ren Zhigu in Tongping Zhangshi, Cui Xuanli, Li Sizhen, Luzhou Assassin Shi and others?" ”

The corners of Wu Zetian's mouth were slightly hooked, but his eyes did not open: "They ...... It's just a clown, what can it do? To deal with them, all I need is a decree. I think of Mengxi......"

Mengxi ...... Shangguan Wan'er remembered that Meng Xi was mentioned by Qin Shaoyou half a month ago. Since returning to the palace, His Majesty has not mentioned Qin Shaoyou at all, and Shangguan Wan'er thought that His Majesty had forgotten it.

In fact, this is also a matter of course, as the Son of Heaven, to see so many people every day, to read so much information from countless books, a small restaurant owner, insignificant, should not stay in the mind of the Son of Heaven.

But now...... His Majesty suddenly mentioned Meng Xi, which made Shangguan Wan'er slightly stunned: "The minister doesn't understand. ”

Wu Zetian sighed faintly, and then said: "I am thinking, Mengxi was originally a barren land, but now it has become a land of fish and rice, I have ordered someone to visit, sure enough, as Qin Shaoyou said, this is my good governance, but why didn't I hear anyone mention it from the court, but it was clear that a cloth dress, I was thinking, could it be that the ministers of civil and military affairs are all blind, they don't know?" There are still people who know, but they don't mention it, and what they recite over and over again every day is the wisdom and martial arts of Emperor Taizong. Be a woman...... It's hard......"

She sighed for a while, but she was also like Qin Shaoyou, with a bit of resentment, and even a little cynical.

Shangguan Wan'er couldn't answer for a while, so she had to say, "Your Majesty is too careful." ”

Wu Zetian frowned slightly and said: "This is not a lot of heart, this is taking care of yourself, especially a woman who has reached this step, if she is a little confused, what will she do?" I observed the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, and there were not many people who could be used, such as the generation of Junchen and Hou Sizhi, but most of them could not be elegant. ”

Shangguan Wan'er smiled, her eyes flickered, and said, "Not everyone is like the Holy Emperor. ”

Wu Zetian smiled, and she suddenly asked: "The porridge made by Qin Shaoyou, I still miss it, let him enter the dining room of Shangshi Province to make a staple food." ”

The imperial dining room is divided into inside and outside, the inner dining room is mainly filled by eunuchs, and the outer dining room is a chef who recruits the name of the world to be on duty, and the official position of the staple food is not high, but it is a small nine products, but for Qin Shaoyou and the grass people, it is a rare honor.

Shangguan Wan'er said with some hesitation: "Your Majesty, this Qin Shaoyou ......"

"But it doesn't hurt for you to say it."

Shangguan Wan'er said: "A few days ago, he got into a lawsuit and won by luck, and then he said a word, and this sentence has spread. ”

Wu Zetian said casually disapprehantly: "Really? What are the words? ”

Shangguan Wan'er glanced at Wu Zetian deeply before saying, "Your Majesty, what he said is that everything is inferior, only reading is high." ”

“……”

Wu Zetian was still closed, but when he heard this, his delicate body couldn't help but be shocked.

She opened her eyes, and this light was like a blade, sweeping directly over Shangguan Wan'er's body: "How long have you been talking, how many people know?" ”

"The minister thought this sentence was interesting, so he let people spread it, and the whole god was already known to passers-by."

"Really?"

Wu Zetian actually got up directly from the couch, put on his shoes, and the palace people behind him hurriedly stepped forward and put a cloak on her, Wu Zetian walked to a few places, stretched out his slender hand, and against a few cases, she became more and more deep, and finally her waist rotated slightly, and her phoenix eyes fell on Shangguan Wan'er's body again, and read word by word: "Everything is inferior...... Only reading is ......"
