"Young master, you're back, the slave will rub it for you."

With a full-time personal servant is different, as soon as she came back, Dai Qisi immediately carefully took the coat for Liu Yuan, waited for him to sit down, and gently rubbed his shoulders for him with those little white hands, which made Liu Yuan feel secretly refreshed, thinking that it would be good to have a superb personal treatment for women.

It's not that there are no maids, it's just that there is no such full-time as Dai Qisi, Xiaoqing is the first, but there are several identities, one is Xiao Niang's maid, and the other is one of Liu Yuan's first three disciples. The second person who is close to him is not a beauty, but Zhao An, an old loyal slave, although he has excellent ability, but Liu Yuan never asks him to massage, add fragrance to red sleeves, etc.

Well, there are some things that can't be replaced by this man, no matter how faithful he is.

"Auntie, please have tea." Cui Afu, who knew that Liu Yuan liked to drink tea, personally gave Liu Yuan a cup of good tea, and couldn't help but glance at Dai Qisi when he stepped back.

My aunt is really blessed, how long has he been in Chang'an since he married such a good woman as Miss, and he got such a stunning orchid so quickly, he is really blessed, by the way, there are two extremely outstanding women in Yangzhou, tsk, amazing, Cui Afu is a little hesitant, do you want to report this matter to the lord and the miss?

As an old loyal slave beside Cui Jing, he also watched Liu Yuan confront his own master in Yangzhou, especially in Qinghe, which made Cui Afu look at Liu Yuan differently, that is, Liu Yuan's arrogance and self-reliance, so the Cui family couldn't blame Liu Yuan more and ask for more.

Otherwise, Liu Yuan would definitely not be as free as he is now.

"Steward Cui, the emperor is coming in a while, how are you prepared?" Liu Yuan asked casually.

As the housekeeper of the Cui Mansion, like receiving these things. It must be very experienced, and Liu Yuan can be said to entrust this carte blanche to him.

Cui Afu hurriedly responded: "If you go back to your aunt, everything is almost ready, only the sweet and sour live fish designated by your aunt is a little less hot, the two chefs have been training, look at the progress, when the banquet is set up in the evening, it should be able to make the standard of the aunt, and when you make this dish, you can make two dishes at the same time." Whichever plate is done well, serve it on which plate, and there will definitely be no problem. ”

"Well, that's good, there's an experienced old butler like you. There will be no surprises. Liu Yuan nodded and said happily.

It is said that there is an old man in the family. If there is a treasure. Like these reception dignitaries, what to do, what to eat, what etiquette to perform, etc., Liu Yuanna can be said to have a black eye, and he will not do anything. But with Cui Afu here, with his guidance, everything is easy to do.

Ah Fu is here, no accidents.

"Auntie. It's just"

"It's okay to be straight"

Cui Afu said cautiously: "Aunt, the people who came, but the emperor, are the ingredients we use too ordinary, by the way, there are not many dishes, I am afraid that the emperor will not eat well, and it is easy to attract criticism, should we add a little more, the lord said, if there is any need, you can call it directly from Cui's mansion." ”

Liu Yuan understood what Cui Afu was worried about.

Li Er had a banquet, Liu Yuan decided to copy the "four cold and four hot" of Yangzhou to entertain Cui Jing, but considering that Li Er was the emperor, he couldn't be too provincial, so on the basis of four cold and four cold, he added two more cold and two hot to make up "six cold" and "six hot", in this way, there is also a "six six Shun" goodwill head, please make a lip service, the plate of sweet and sour live fish that is still practicing is Liu Yuan ate when traveling in his previous life, very impressive, for some of them also went to the kitchen to watch the chef brew, and he tried it a few times at home, and only recently remembered, I specially let the chef add it.

As for the ordinary ingredients, such as bird's nest, bear's paw, deer tail, preserved food, and husky toad (Heilongjiang forest frog), there are no these, and even the favorite dish of the upper class celebrities: muddy sheep is not prepared, and the only thing that can be regarded as precious is only hump meat.

Of course, with the lesson of the last time, in the cold dishes, Liu Yuan removed the beef.

In Liu's Mansion, Liu Yuan is full of food, the whole family is not hungry, and there is no one to accompany him in the house, and secondly, he is not familiar with the place, he has just been promoted to a six-grade petty official, and he does not plan to invite any colleagues to come to the banquet, so he and Li Er are two people, this fishtail banquet, twelve dishes, two people eat, so it's not much?

Eat it all.

"It's okay, a small six-grade sesame petty official, there's no need to be too extravagant and wasteful, besides, I don't plan to invite colleagues, there is wine and meat, twelve plates and two people eat, I can't finish eating, now the emperor and the queen call on the subjects to be thrifty, I'm afraid that the emperor will blame the inappropriate national conditions and extravagance and waste, by the way, Steward Cui."

"Auntie, the old slave is here."

Liu Yuan instructed: "When I let the cook cook for a while, put a little less in the portion as appropriate, don't waste it too much, I am a six-grade lieutenant, and I have a low position, don't let him blame me for not living within my means." ”

Cui Afu hesitated for a moment, feeling that what Liu Yuan said was quite reasonable, so he responded and immediately retreated to make arrangements.

After Cui Afu retreated, Dai Qisi rubbed it gently and whispered, "Young master, the house you let me find has eyebrows." ”

"Oh, is it? Where is it? ”

Dai Qisi whispered: "The broker took me to see, in Xianghefang, where the environment is quiet and the land price is cheap, it just so happens that there are two families who want to go out to do business, and the two families are next to each other, which just meets the requirements of the young master." ”

"Meet the requirements, if it's okay, buy it, I trust your vision." Liu Yuan said with a smile.

"Young master, if you want to talk about shops, you have a shop on Jiazi Street in the West Market, if you want to talk about a house, the house you live in is so good, why do you still have to buy a house, you have to buy two rooms when you buy it, this is, the young master is ready to hide the golden house?"

Liu Yuan knocked on Dai Qisi's head and said, "It's just thinking about the worst, don't think about it too much, it's going to be used as a workshop." ”

"Workshop?"

"Yes, Chang'an has unlimited business opportunities, as long as you use your brain, it is gold everywhere, I am going to open a printing workshop here and get something interesting." Liu Yuan said with a smile on his face and an excited face.

The hot sales of the lottery can be reflected, the entertainment activities in Chang'an are too few, so that the lottery comes out, the whole city is excited, if you can make a little effort in entertainment activities and spiritual life, you can definitely make a fortune in a muffled voice. When necessary, you can also grasp the mouthpiece of the argument, and you can also make a momentum for yourself, advertise or something.

Liu Yuan thought about it early on that he would build a printing workshop in Chang'an, selling books and newspapers and magazines on the other, and he would definitely be able to make a lot of money, and then he would be at a disadvantage in the struggle with Jin Supreme, and even lose money, and he would not be able to make ends meet. You can also help from other aspects.

"Something interesting? Young master, you seem to be very profound. Dai Qisi didn't understand what Liu Yuan was going to do, but seeing his excited face, she was happy for him.

"Alright. You don't need to ask so much" Liu Yuan waved his hand and said, "It's almost noon now, you go to the chef and tell the cook." Cook me what I ate tonight. I don't think the taste is right, not quantity, but not sloppy in terms of quality. ”

"Yes, young master." Dai Qisi smiled sweetly at Liu Yuan, turned her head and walked towards the kitchen.

Liu Yuan was lying on the leisure chair with his head in his hands, his eyes closed. I secretly thought in my heart: Huang Gonggong has been going to Yangzhou to announce the decree for almost a month, Xiaoniang and Du Sanniang, they are almost in Chang'an now, unconsciously. Now that it's winter, it's good to reunite, but in such weather, it's hard for two beauties

"Father, look, is this flower beautiful?"

"Queen Mother, how do you see Jing'er's handwriting?"

"Okay, His Royal Highness King Wu's archery skills have improved again."

"Oh, good"

In the Imperial Flower Courtyard of the Imperial Palace, the activities of the royal family are being held, Li Er, who is diligent in government and loves the people, rarely finds time to accompany a group of children to play in the back garden, and enjoy the splendid scenery of the Tang Dynasty, but also enjoy the joy of family with his family.

In the imperial garden, Li Er sat on the exquisite carpet, the palace maid behind him held the canopy guard of honor, the left side hugged the queen of the eldest grandson who loved her life, and the right side held the noble concubine Yang, watching a group of children play and frolic in the imperial garden, but they were also happy.

At this time, the children of the crown prince Li Chengqian, the king of Wu Li Ke, and the king of Wei Li Tai, although they also looked dignified, they were still only thirteen or fourteen years old; The future Gaozong Li Zhi does not have the air of an emperor yet, and he is still a little kid who is only five years old and still has a snot; Princess Li Lizhi of Changle, Princess Li Mengjiang of Linchuan, Princess Li Jing of Qinghe, Princess Li Shu of Lanling, etc., are now just six to twelve years old little Lori, one is more beautiful than the other, one is cuter than the other, and they are all still young, and the brothers and sisters do not have so many conflicts of interest, but they are also happy.

Most of them are playing crazy and frolicking, but people like the crown prince Li Chengqian, the king of Wu Li Ke, and the king of Wei Li Tai are a little mature, and they draw bows and arrows on the side to attract the attention of Li Er, the son of heaven, and get a little more praise.

And Qinghe princess Li Jing, because she has decreed to marry Cheng Huailiang, the son of Cheng Zhijie, knows that she is not the same as her sisters, and her mind is beginning to be a little mature, and she doesn't dare to play crazy.

Li Er, who killed his brother and killed his brother, didn't like to see his brothers fighting and sisters not knowing these things, for fear that the tragedy of his generation would repeat itself in them.

"Father" At this time, the little kid Li Zhi ran over to invite pet, and his delicate little face was full of tears, and he complained with a handful of snot and tears: "Brother Prince bullied me." ”

Li Er was the most fond of Li Zhi, the only one who was raised by himself, hugged him, carefully wiped away his tears and said, "Okay, Zhi'er, tell me about your father, how did the prince's brother deceive you?" ”

"Zhi'er wants to shoot arrows, but the prince's brother won't let Zhi'er play."

"Hehe" Li Er laughed a few times, scratched his nose, and said lovingly: "You are only five years old now, how can you pull a strong bow, when you grow up and have great strength, it is not too late to study hard, and if you forcibly pull the bow now, you will strain yourself, and your prince brother is also for your good." ”

Li Zhi listened to Li Er's words very much, and said very coincidentally: "Oh, Nazhi'er listens to his father's words, and he won't be angry with the prince's brother, father, can we have dinner together tonight?" Zhi'er hadn't eaten with his father for two days. ”

"Father, Shu'er also wants to eat with her father," this is Princess Lanling, who is only six years old, also said coquettishly on the side.

Princess Chengyang, who has been coquettish in the arms of Empress Eldest Sun here, seemed to be afraid of a loss, and said in a milky voice: "Father, I also want to eat with you." ”

The coquettishness of children is invincible, Li Er looked at those innocent smiles, and suddenly his heart softened, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, go here, my father will take you to eat big households, hahaha"

Originally, he promised to go to Liu Yuan's place to eat the fishtail banquet, just right, his wife and children went together, Li Er thought a little indignantly: That lottery is so easy to make, let Liu Yuan's kid operate exclusively for three months, how much income does this treasury have to lose, it just so happens that the whole family went out to eat him hard, and it was also necessary to observe the people's feelings.

At this time, Liu Yuan, who was laughing with Dai Qisi, sneezed twice, and said while rubbing his nose: "Hey, which one misses me?" (To be continued.) )
