215, the emperor arrives (4)

Self-taught, self-taught?

Not to mention that Gu Tingjun, a very suspicious person, didn't believe it, even Gu Tingfeng, who had known Liu Jiaojiao for so long, said that he didn't dare to believe it, but the little girl's tone really didn't look like a fake, could it be that she was really a little genius?

Gu Tingjun didn't continue to dwell on this issue, but showed a light smile and asked, "Little girl, it's a bit of a waste to stay in this small restaurant with your cooking skills, do you want to go to a better place?" ”

Qingxinfang is definitely a very large scale among all the restaurants in the capital, and the decoration is also unique, and only the emperor who sits on the four seas will feel that this is just a small restaurant.

"Do you mean the Imperial Dining Room? Is it inconvenient for the little girl to go there? Anyway, she has already shown that she has guessed the identity of the other party, so there is no need to hide it.

Gu Tingfeng immediately helped: "The imperial dining room is full of men and eunuchs, and it is really inconvenient for her to be a little girl to enter." ”

"Aren't most of the shopkeepers in this restaurant also men? What is the inconvenience of arranging a place for her to live alone? Gu Tingjun seemed to have made up his mind, and he had to get Liu Jiaojiao into the imperial dining room.

Gu Tingfeng was immediately anxious, he had seen Liu Jiaojiao's true face, in case he entered the palace, he might accidentally show his stuffing one day, and said in a playful tone: "Brother Huang, you can't be so unkind!" It's not that you don't know that this restaurant is the property of your brother, if you don't have a chef, how can you continue to open it? Is it easy for a courtier to make some money? ”

Anyway, the emperor's identity has been pierced, and there is no need for him to continue acting.

Gu Tingjun looked at him with a smile, "You said that you are a dignified prince, why did you get into the eyes of money?" And when have I treated you badly all these years? Whether it is your money or the rewards you usually give, all of them are a lot higher than the others, are you so short of silver? ”

This sentence is actually a trap, if a prince is crazy about making money, there are only two possibilities, one is that his life is extremely luxurious, and he must constantly smash the silver, and the other is that he has a different heart and needs a large amount of money to recruit troops.

Although he, the third emperor brother, loves food, he is definitely not a person who likes luxury, and running around the country to find food, with his current net worth, is not a matter at all, and there is no need to make additional money at all.

"Missing, very lacking!" Unexpectedly, Gu Tingfeng admitted without blinking his eyes, just when Gu Tingjun's eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes looked at him with a little complicated eyes, he suddenly changed his words, "Brother Huang, you don't know how hard the owner of this restaurant is!" Although the younger brother is the boss behind the scenes, he must also give silver when he comes here to eat, and he doesn't have a copper plate with him! Now that you've eaten the food in the restaurant yourself, do you think that other people's dishes are not eye-catching? The same is true for the younger brothers, their mouths are raised, so they have to come every day. As the days go by, no matter how thick the brother's family background is, he is afraid that he will not be able to hold it, so he has to work hard to earn more money to satisfy the appetite of the minister! ”

"The restaurant is yours, although you paid the silver for dinner, but the money you earned is also yours, but the left hand is in and the right hand is out, I don't think you have any loss."

"Brother Huang, the younger brother actually only accounts for fifty percent of the dry shares in this restaurant, the owner accounts for thirty percent, and this little girl has two percent, so the silver that the younger brother earns from the restaurant every month is not enough to spend!" Gu Tingfeng was about to cry.

Liu Jiaojiao, who had been pretending to be transparent, suddenly came to a wave of assists quietly, "The prince has to order at least six dishes for each meal, and the ones he orders are the most expensive specialties, and he has to occupy a box with the best environment alone, so the daily consumption is at least one hundred and fifty taels of silver, and it is four thousand five hundred taels in a month." Although the business of the restaurant is good, because of the limited manpower in the kitchen, the net income in a month is only about 6,000 taels, excluding the 3,000 taels he receives, which means that he has to paste 1,500 taels every month. ”

Hearing this, the corners of Gu Tingjun's mouth twitched fiercely, and he didn't know for a while whether to say that the restaurant charges too much, or whether to say that Gu Tingfeng was too loser.

A person, it costs four thousand five hundred taels of silver just to eat a month, how can he feel that this prince is even more luxurious than him, the emperor?

Now he believes that this younger brother should have no intention of rebelling, four thousand five hundred taels of silver, isn't it fragrant for him to recruit troops and buy horses? I didn't even care about it, and it all went into my stomach.

So, for him, eating and drinking well is more important than the throne, right? It's really unproductive and has no future!

Gu Tingfeng originally said this on purpose, but he didn't expect Liu Jiaojiao to give him a divine assist, although the reputation of the foodie prince is not very good, anyway, he has long been used to it, it is better than letting his suspicious royal brother always think that he has a rebellious heart, right?

He immediately nodded in agreement with Liu Jiaojiao's words, and with a bitter face, he said extremely sadly: "Brother Huang, have you heard it?" So don't get the little girl to your imperial dining room, otherwise the younger brother can only enter the palace every day to follow you to eat! ”

"Okay, won't you be able to save four thousand five hundred taels of food money every month?" Gu Tingjun said deliberately.

Gu Tingfeng slapped his forehead violently, with an expression of "yes, why didn't I think of it", and smiled flatteringly at him: "Brother Huang, what do you say?" Can the younger brother really go into the palace every day to eat? ”

Gu Tingjun glared at him angrily, "The prince has to move out of the palace when he is an adult, how can you, a prince, go to the palace every day?" You don't want to lose face, I still want to save face! ”

Gu Tingfeng's shoulders suddenly drooped, and his whole body drooped, with an extremely disappointed expression.

When Gu Tingjun was still about to speak, the secret guard who followed him out of the palace suddenly knocked on the door and came in, whispered a few words in his ear, his expression suddenly became serious, and then said: "There is something in the palace, I must go back immediately." As he spoke, he looked at Liu Jiaojiao, who was standing aside and kept her head down, "Little girl, I am not a person who is difficult for a strong man, so I will give you three days to think about it!" ”

Gu Tingfeng hurriedly pulled Liu Jiaojiao to kneel down and shouted "Congratulations to the emperor", and after Gu Tingjun completely walked away, he pulled Liu Jiaojiao up, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and said with palpitations: "Fortunately, he is gone, otherwise I really don't know what excuse to continue to deal with him." ”

As he spoke, he glared at Liu Jiaojiao fiercely, and said in a reproachful tone, "What's wrong with you?" When I entered the door, I was so distracted that I almost scared me to death, you know? That is the emperor, if you say something wrong and collide with him, even if I am the prince, I may not be able to protect you! ”

Liu Jiaojiao smiled apologetically at him a little embarrassed, she can't say that she was stimulated by the words of the system to be distracted for a while, right? Fortunately, he recovered quickly later, otherwise he might have really angered His Majesty the Emperor. new

Gu Tingfeng said that she was just worried about her too much, and she didn't really have the intention to blame, seeing that she had a good attitude, she changed the topic and asked: "Although the imperial brother gave you three days to think about it, I know his personality, and I definitely can't tolerate your refusal, what are you going to do?" ”

"It's impossible for me to enter the palace, it's impossible in this life!" Liu Jiaojiao replied very firmly, she had seen too much Gong Douwen, and she didn't have the slightest good impression of that place.

"Rejecting the emperor is tantamount to angering him, aren't you afraid that he will punish you?"

"Afraid, how can you not be afraid? That is the emperor who holds the power of life and death! ”

Gu Tingfeng found that she was afraid in her mouth, but there was no fear on her face, and she knew that she must have some solution, and said curiously: "Have you figured out a solution?" ”

"Nope." Liu Jiaojiao replied very simply, and deliberately shrugged her shoulders, saying that she was really helpless.

Gu Tingfeng was so anxious by her move that he stomped his feet a few times, crying and laughing: "If you can't be so calm?" I know you have a lot of secrets, what's the matter? Can't you let me know? ”

"You've said it's a secret, is it a secret if you know it?"

"Yes, I'm scared of you, I can't help you, anyway, you can take it easy, if you need my help, just say it, I will help if I can!"

"What can help? What can't be helped? ”

Gu Tingfeng didn't expect her to ask such a question, and looked at her curiously, and when he found that although she had a smile on the corner of her mouth, her eyes revealed a touch of seriousness, he couldn't help but straighten his expression, and said in a deep voice: "Don't help if you endanger the safety of the ancient dynasty, don't help if you harm the morality of heaven, and don't help if you commit murder and evil." ”

"I remember."

Liu Jiaojiao showed a bright smile at him, but he saw that he was a little inexplicably flustered, and hurriedly found an excuse to leave.

He had just put his hands on the doorknob and was about to pull it open, when he heard something from behind him, albeit light, that almost broke his heart.

"Gu Tingfeng, are you really willing?"

His body shook violently, and then, as if he hadn't heard anything, he opened the door and strode out, not forgetting to close the door of the box again.

In the box, a calculating smile rose at the corner of Liu Jiaojiao's mouth, and her eyes were deep and difficult to distinguish.

She will not forget what the emperor did to the Xie family, it is not difficult to bring down a Xu Tianci, but as long as the emperor is still Gu Tingjun, he can easily support another Xu Tianci, and the crisis of the Xie family will still exist at that time.

She really has no interest in the palace fight script, but the conspiracy script can be released.

Gu Tingjun hurriedly returned to the palace, and after dealing with the matter, he suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to ask the name of the little girl, so he asked the know-it-all Wei Gonggong: "Little Weizi, do you know who the chef of Qingxinfang is?" ”

Gonggong Wei thought hard about it, and then reluctantly confessed: "Emperor Qiqi, it seems that the chef of Qingxinfang has never appeared in front of people, so the slave doesn't know, the slave is guilty." ”

Gu Tingjun naturally wouldn't really punish him for such a trivial matter, waved his hand to show that he didn't care, and then thought that the other party was a little girl of such an age, and it was understandable not to appear in front of people, after all, she was a woman, and secondly, she was too young, and it was easy to attract talk.

But I don't know why, the little girl's facial features look a little familiar, especially those black eyes with agility, where have I seen them?

At this moment, Duke Wei asked openly: "Your Majesty, the spies of the potential Wujun Mansion reported that the Wujun King and the County Princess had a big quarrel over the matter of the quasi-princess, and the County Princess said that as long as she lives, Xie Linlang's daughter will never be allowed to marry into the County Palace." ”

Gu Tingjun's eyes lit up suddenly.

By the way, I remembered it, it was Xu Tianci's daughter Xu Jiao!

Her sudden appearance was too dramatic, and her identity was special, she was the future concubine of the emperor's marriage, so Gu Tingjun sent someone to secretly investigate and see her portrait.

The Xie family's favorite granddaughter, Xu Tianci's lost and recovered daughter, the future princess of the prince of Wujun, turned out to be the chef of Qingxinfang, the most famous restaurant in the capital, who would have imagined this?

Does the Xie family know about this matter? Does Xu Tianci know? Does Wujun Wangfu know? Also, his third emperor brother...... Do you know?

Hehe, interesting, really interesting.
