Zeng Rong saw Zhu Wu walking towards the other garden, and she also took the two little eunuchs to the imperial dining room, and only two people on duty were left in the imperial dining room, who were making the supper that Zeng Rong explained.

It's easy for her to have a supper, a bowl of wine-stuffed rice balls, which is Zheng Jiao's favorite, and the other bowl is still green vegetable dumpling soup, which is for the emperor to taste.

Zeng Rong took out two pieces of broken silver and gave them to the two imperial chefs, asking them to help fry these cicada chrysalis, and she also wanted to taste them.

After explaining the matter, Zeng Rong came out and found a dark corner, where he could hide himself and see the gate of the villa, only to see Chang Dezi stopping Zhu Wu at the gate, because it was a little far away, Zeng Rong didn't hear what the two said.

After a while, seeing Zhu Wu reluctantly turned around and left, when his figure disappeared into the darkness, Zeng Rong quickly ran to Chang Dezi's side.

"Father-in-law Chang, His Royal Highness is gone, and the emperor hasn't seen him?"

Father-in-law Chang shook off the broom in his hand, stretched out a finger and poked it on Zeng Rong's head, gritted his teeth and said, "My little ancestor, can you stop?" ”

"Father-in-law, I, I also look at Zheng Cairen pitifully. Also, if the emperor didn't mean this, he should have been killed a long time ago. Besides, this matter was originally the emperor... ”

Zeng Rong didn't finish the next words, because Chang Dezi was glaring at her with a pair of eyes, and there was a sense that he would come over and tear her mouth if she continued to say more, Zeng Rong immediately pursed his mouth, shook his head, and waved his hand again.

"You, you." Chang Dezi shook his head, he couldn't bear to discipline her, because he knew that what the emperor liked was Zeng Rong's unique personality, naughty, funny, and not less troublesome, but fortunately, he was still kind and upright in his bones.

"Father-in-law, I'll give you a good taste." Zeng Rong smiled flatteringly.

"You don't come to this set, our family is cowardly, and we don't need to be scared." Chang Dezi also gave Zeng Rong a disgusted look.

Zeng Rong smiled.

That night, Zeng Rong finally coaxed Chang Dezi into a smile with a plate of fried cicada chrysalis.

As for herself, she was unblessed, and after trying several times, she still didn't have the courage to put it in her mouth.

Zheng Jiao was sent away early the next morning, when Zeng Rong went to the other garden to be on duty, the emperor had already gone to the court meeting in the palace, Zeng Rong asked the emperor from the eunuch on duty about the emperor's bedtime and wake-up time, and didn't ask much else.

After writing the text of the record, Zeng Rong chatted with the two eunuchs who went to catch cicada chrysalis last night, and learned that they were also from the countryside, and they also had to enter the palace because the family had not enough to eat.

In the end, it is a boy, with a big heart, who remembers eating or not, and remembers eating without remembering hardships, and Zeng Rong talked endlessly about the naughty things they had done in the countryside, such as climbing trees and touching birds' nests, digging out bird eggs and boiling them to eat, catching sparrows with a basket to roast and eating, and going down to the river to touch fish and mussels, and touching loaches in the field.

"By the way, Sister Ah Rong, let's take you to frog fishing after dinner, there must be a lot of frogs by the lake, frogs are delicious, use..."

Zeng Rong didn't wait for the other party to finish speaking, and hurriedly took it, "Yes, yes, I also like to eat field chicken, which is the kind of earthy yellow, fried with chili peppers." ”

The reason why Zeng Rong was deeply impressed by the field chicken was because Xu Fushan Xu liked this dish very much, it is said that he often ate it in his hometown when he was young, and later after entering Beijing, he was occasionally hungry and would ask someone to go to Zhuangzi to catch field chicken for him. 101 Chinese Net

The main reason is that no one in the capital eats this thing, and there is no silver to buy it if you want to.

The two little eunuchs saw that Zeng Rong finally agreed with them, and talked to Zeng Rong about the trick of catching frogs, from frogs to mountain rats, from mountain rats to pheasants, from pheasants to hares, and as they talked, the two suddenly stopped moving, and stood up tremblingly.

Zeng Rong guessed what the situation was, and he hurriedly got up, turned around, and didn't even dare to raise his head, "Your Majesty, is today's court meeting going well?" ”

Zhu Xu glanced at her, didn't squeak, and went straight to the bedroom, it was too hot, and he usually washed up briefly, took off this court clothes, and changed into a light regular clothes.

Zeng Rong knew his habit, so he didn't follow, but made a mouth gesture to Chang Gonggong behind him, Chang Gonggong shook his head slightly, Zeng Rong didn't know what he meant, so he could only wait obediently.

This time I came to Xiyuan, only she and Zheng Shiguan came, and the two of them worked in the morning and evening, and only one person was on duty at a time, so she couldn't leave at will.

After a while, the emperor changed his clothes and came out, and ordered the eunuch to announce the officials who were waiting for the meeting, and Zeng Rong also accepted those messy thoughts and began to work.

In the morning, the emperor met with four groups of officials, mainly because of two major events: first, several big hailstorms have fallen in Jiangnan in recent days, which seriously affected the output of summer grain; The second is that there is a large amount of private salt in Haiyan District in the southeast, and this matter seems to be related to the woman's family who has not passed through the door.

That's kind of interesting.

The Wu family of the Fuguo Gong has always had overseas business dealings, not to mention that the rich rival countries are not far away, how can they touch the forbidden area of illegal salt?

And it still suddenly appeared half a year after the resale of military rations by Wang Bai, the Marquis of Zhenyuan, not to mention a few cabinet members, even Zhu Xu couldn't help but be careful.

Fortunately, it is only the stage of suspicion and evidence collection at present, but the matter of illegal salt must have appeared, and it will seriously affect the taxes of the imperial court, and the imperial court must send someone down to investigate it thoroughly.

Who to send has become a problem, Xu Fushan came back from the north in the winter of the old year, although he grabbed a few leg hairs, but he still offended Wang Bai, Wang Bai has been looking for Xu Fushan's stubble for half a year, just waiting to take him to make a mistake and drag him down.

And the status of this auxiliary prince is not lower than that of the Marquis of Zhenyuan, don't look at the Wang family, there is a queen, but the mother of the current auxiliary prince Wu Se is the eldest princess of Pingyang, and his wife is the eldest daughter of the king of Chu, the lord of Jinghui.

And now the eldest daughter of the Wu family has negotiated with the Third Highness again, who doesn't know that the biological mother of the Third Highness, the Imperial Concubine, is a tumbler who has favored the harem for many years, who dares to check such a prominent family? How to check?

After arguing all morning, there was no result, and Zhu Xu knew that it was not something that could be decided in half a day, so he waved his hand when he was on the verge of a headache.

After these officials left, Chang Dezi was busy passing the meal, and Zeng Rong was busy sorting out the copywriting and did not show up.

Zhu Xu sat down at the table and remembered Zeng Ronglai, and wanted to ask Chang Dezi to ask her to serve the meal, but as soon as he came, he knew that Zeng Rong would definitely be busy for a while; Second, he was angry with Zeng Rong.

Yesterday was "calculated" by Zeng Rong, although he did not resist Zheng Jiao's arrival, but after all, it brought him trouble, and A-Yao would make a move in the next two days.

Of course, strictly speaking, this matter can't rely on Zeng Rong, it was he who harmed Zheng Jiao first, and he gave up on her later, if he hadn't compromised, the child in Zheng Jiao's belly might not have fallen.
