Listening to them praise Zhao Kangcheng's wife word by word, and then reminisced about the taste of the Buddha jumping over the wall just tasted, the emperor said: "In this way, Zhao Qing does have a very good lady, and I also like this Buddha jumping over the wall, I don't know what kind of reward Zhao Qing wants?" ”

Zhao Kangcheng bowed his head and said: "Weichen doesn't dare, it is an honor to make the emperor like Weichen and Weichen's wife, and I don't dare to ask for it." ”

"Well, having said that, there is still a reward to be had." The emperor said.

At this time, the third prince said: "It's better to reward your father with a plaque, but your father has personally inscribed it with your imperial pen, what do you think?" ”

The emperor thought about it and felt that the third prince's proposal was good, so he nodded and said, "Then according to what the emperor said, I will reward a royal plaque, and then a thousand taels of gold!" Well...... Since it is for Zhao Qing's wife, let's reward some more jewelry! ”

Zhao Kangcheng immediately knelt down on his knees, kowtowed and thanked: "Weichen's acting wife Xie Emperor reward, long live, long live, long live!" ”

"Excuse me, flat." The emperor raised his hand and said, then asked, "By the way, what is the name of the restaurant?" ”

Zhao Kangcheng said: "Back to the emperor, it is called 'the home of the small city'. ”

The Emperor: "The home of a small town? Nice name! ”

Seeing that the emperor admired Mrs. Zhao Kangcheng's cooking skills so much, the surrounding officials couldn't help but wonder if they wanted to go to this small city house in the future to have a look and taste the dishes inside? After all, his cooking skills have been personally recognized by the emperor!

And some people who have already been to the small town house, such as the group of people in the Hanlin Academy, boasted to the people around them, saying how delicious the dishes of the small town house were, and there was a hot pot in it that no one had heard of, but it was particularly delicious, and those who had not been there were very curious.

And Sun Lulu, she didn't expect that even if Cai Xiaoxiao was not here, she would still be in the limelight! Thinking of this, she secretly hated in her heart.

After the reward, Zhao Kangcheng and the others returned to their seats and sat down, and then the banquet began. Singing and dancing, chatting and fighting, everyone ate the dishes served by the imperial dining room, only the emperor was concentrating on tasting the Buddha jumping over the wall in front of him, with liquor, so that the emperor ate with relish.

In the middle of the night, the banquet finally dispersed, and everyone began to go home in their respective carriages, Sun Lulu still wanted to say goodbye to Zhao Kangcheng, but was tightly held by Zuo Xiang's arm, so that she couldn't go at all, and finally could only reluctantly look at the back of Zhao Kangcheng leaving.

Zuo Xiang couldn't be angry when he looked at her like this! When he returned to the house, he directly threw up his sleeves and returned to his yard, not wanting to deal with Sun Lulu at all, obviously disappointed because of Sun Lulu's behavior today.

When Zhao Kangcheng returned home, Cai Xiaoxiao had already slept, but fortunately Zhao Kangcheng didn't drink too much wine tonight, so he simply washed up and hugged Cai Xiaoxiao to sleep.

The next day, Zhao Kangcheng still didn't have to go to the court, after all, all the officials made a fuss so late yesterday, and everyone drank alcohol, so the emperor was naturally embarrassed to let everyone get up early to go to the court.

When Cai Xiaoxiao woke up, it was already dawn, and as soon as she turned her head, she saw Zhao Kangcheng leaning against the head of the bed, holding a book in his hand, obviously waking up a long time ago.

Cai Xiaoxiao greeted him with a smile: "Morning, Xianggong." ”

Zhao Kangcheng put down the book, lowered his head and kissed her lightly on the forehead, and said with a smile: "Morning." Then he helped her to sit up.

Cai Xiaoxiao asked, "What time is it?" ”

Zhao Kangcheng replied: "It's still early, it's just time." ”

It was almost nine to eleven o'clock: "It's not early, it's time to get up." With that, she got out of bed, called Cai Qiu and Cai Dong, who were guarding outside, in, and began to wash and dress up.

After the two washed up, they were ready to have a belated breakfast, and then Cai Xiaoxiao thought of the emperor's birthday banquet last night, and she asked Zhao Kangcheng: "By the way, last night, how was the emperor's birthday?" Is he still satisfied with the Buddha jumping over the wall I sent? ”

Zhao Kangcheng nodded and said, "The emperor likes it very much, and he has given you some rewards." ”

As soon as she heard that there was a reward, Cai Xiaoxiao's eyes suddenly lit up: "Really? What reward? ”

When Zhao Kangcheng was about to tell her, Zhao Chun walked over and said to the two: "Master, madam, someone has come to the palace." ”

Zhao Kangcheng and Cai Xiaoxiao glanced at each other, and Zhao Kangcheng smiled: "Your reward is here." Then the two men stood up and walked to the front yard.

When they came to the front yard, they saw a big eunuch standing there with a few little eunuchs, and the little eunuchs were holding things in their hands, and Cai Xiaoxiao also saw two eunuchs carrying a plaque in their hands, but the plaque was covered with a red cloth, so that people could not see what was written on the plaque.

The big eunuch saw Zhao Kangcheng and the others coming over, smiled and shouted at the two, "Lord Zhao, Mrs. Zhao." ”

Zhao Kangcheng and Cai Xiaoxiao nodded slightly at him and said, "Good morning, father-in-law." ”

The big eunuch nodded, then stretched out his hand and pointed to the things that the few little eunuchs behind him were holding, and said, "This is a reward from the emperor to Mrs. Zhao." ”

Zhao Kangcheng threw his hand at him and said, "There is Father-in-law Lao." Then he motioned to Zhao Chun and Zhao Xia to find a few people to pick up the things, Cai Xiaoxiao looked at Cai Qiu beside him, Cai Qiu walked towards the big eunuch and handed a purse to the big eunuch's hand:

"It's hard for my father-in-law to make a trip."

The big eunuch touched the purse, felt the weight in it, and then smiled with satisfaction, and said, "Since the things have been delivered, then our family will leave first." ”

Zhao Kangcheng and Cai Xiaoxiao hurriedly said: "Father-in-law go slowly." ”

After a few eunuchs left, Cai Xiaoxiao couldn't wait to lift the red cloth on the plaque, and then saw four big golden characters carved on it-

A small town home!

"Is this written by the emperor himself?" Cai Xiaoxiao asked Zhao Kangcheng.

Zhao Kangcheng nodded: "Yes." Then he walked over, pointed to the lower right side of the plaque, and said, "Look, there is a seal here, and it is the emperor's jade seal." ”

As soon as she heard that it was a jade seal, Cai Xiaoxiao hurriedly leaned over and took a closer look - this was the first time she had taken such a close look at the so-called jade seal, although she didn't know if it was the same as the jade seal held by the emperors of those famous dynasties in history, but it did not hinder her enthusiasm for observation.

When Cai Xiaoxiao had enough observations, while looking at the other two trays covered with red cloths, she raised her hand and lifted the two red cloths, and then saw the golden gold and all kinds of jewelry on them-

"Wow! We've got gold to spend again! Cai Xiaoxiao said happily.
