Chapter 45: Pickle Rice
The three of them left the Workshop Division and walked from the east of the city to the middle of the city.
It was probably that Xie Jin was about to arrive at the door, so he stopped and looked at Zhu Yunxi with a grateful face.
Xie Jin was very solemn, clasped his fists with both hands, and bowed goodbye: "Xie Jin is appreciated by the emperor and grandson, which is the blessing of Jin, no matter what the future is, Jin is looking forward to the emperor's grandson and horse, serving the work of dogs and horses, and striving for great ambitions." ”
Zhu Yunxi smiled all over his face, stretched out a hand to cover the hands that Xie Jin was holding, held it tightly, and shook it heavily.
"Brother Gentry is serious, Yun Xi looks forward to being able to sit with Brother Gentry and watch the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty in the future!"
watched Xie Jin leave and disappear into the crowd.
Zhu Yunxi stood with his hands behind his back, quietly watching the crowd on the street, passing by.
Although Yingtian City does not have a horizontal and vertical, heroic and magnificent layout. But because of this, it also added a local people's fireworks atmosphere.
Zhu Yunxi turned around and took steps in the direction of the imperial city, he walked very slowly, and Sun Cheng followed quietly.
At this time, Zhu Yunxi said softly: "Xie Jin seems to be a fear of guilt? ”
He thought that in the teaching department before, the appearance of that Yanniang who was scratching her head and scratching her face before Xie Jin approached, felt a little funny.
Sun Cheng's feet were steady, and his eyes swept to the pedestrians on both sides from time to time, alert to possible dangers.
Hearing the emperor's question, he couldn't help but smile: "It seems that this is the case, Xie Hanlin and his wife are in love with each other, and now that there are children in the family, I have never heard of the rumors of affairs outside." ”
Zhu Yunxi smiled and nodded, but looked at Sun Cheng with a suspicious face.
I kept seeing Sun Cheng's heart empty, and asked in a low voice: "Third master?" But the subordinate said the wrong thing? ”
Zhu Yunxi shook his head, a little puzzled: "You haven't drunk in the Sect Division before?" ”
Fine wine with beautiful women, how can normal people resist it.
But now, looking at Sun Cheng's rooted and stable appearance, Zhu Yunxi is a little puzzled.
Could it be that this guy has cultivated some secret method?
Sun Cheng scratched his head: "The third master rewarded him with kindness, and his subordinates didn't dare to resign, but he still had a measure in his heart, and he didn't dare to mistake the third master." ”
This is a sensible person!
Zhu Yunxi's eyes slid a hint of approval, and he suddenly remembered that Zhang Zhiyuan, another pro-army Yulinwei small flag officer who was transferred to the East Palace with Sun Cheng to serve as the emperor's guard.
He walked under his feet and whispered in his mouth: "That Zhang Zhiyuan, do you have any dealings?" ”
Sun Cheng didn't know what the emperor and grandson wanted for a while, and he was vigilant, thinking that the emperor and grandson felt that he was not strict in his mouth and did not do things secretly.
immediately clenched his fists and explained in a deep voice: "My subordinates have always known how to run errands for the third master, and in their free time, they lead their brothers to practice martial arts, and they rarely have contact with Zhang Xiaoqi on weekdays. ”
As he spoke, Sun Cheng raised his head slightly to look at Zhu Yunxi, observing the expression of the emperor and grandson.
However, when Zhu Yunxi heard this, his face showed disappointment, and he shook his head and guided: "In the future, you can have a lot of dealings with him, you are all from the pro-army Yulinwei, and now you are all on an errand in the East Palace, so you are always closer than others." ”
Saying that, Zhu Yunxi added: "If it costs too much, you can go to Caidie to withdraw it." ”
Speaking of this, Zhu Yunxi stared at Sun Cheng with deep meaning.
Sun Cheng's heart sank at the moment, and he also realized most of it.
The emperor and grandson wanted him to withdraw money, and he was so close to Zhang Zhiyuan, what else could he do for it.
He nodded silently, keeping the matter in mind.
For Sun Cheng, who was originally transferred to the East Palace, he thought that he would become a minion who would open the way for the nobles of the clan to travel the streets.
However, now he has been by Zhu Yunxi's side for many days, although the emperor and grandson have never explained anything clear to him.
But what he has seen and heard with the emperor and grandson these days can make Sun Cheng see that his own emperor and grandson is a person with big ambitions.
First the door, then Mr. Fang Xizhi, and the family affection in front of the princes of the clan, and then suddenly......
It can be summed up by acceptance, that young and famous Hanlin bachelor Xie Jin.
As the grandson of the clan, if he has no great ambitions, why would he have so many layouts!
Thinking of this, Sun Cheng's heart was hot.
looked up at Zhu Yunxi, who was already walking in front, looking leisurely and leisurely, watching on the street.
The opportunity is right in front of you, and the future of your Sun family is in your own hands!
After thinking about it in his heart, Sun Cheng nodded as if he was self-affirming, and then followed Zhu Yunxi, who was walking in front.
At this time, Zhu Yunxi was like a rich boy who had nothing to do walking on the street, aimlessly.
I listened to the people on the street, gathered together, whispering the gossip of this Ming Jingshi.
"I heard that the little lady of the Zeng family over there in Xicheng, what is her name......
"Zeng Ying!"
"Ah, yes, yes, yes! That's the one, that's a different kind of play......"
"How?"
"I just heard that this little lady is at home, from the porter to the backyard, and she is singing every night in private, so unhappy."
"Huh?"
"That's not all, the porters of their family often take advantage of the absence of the head of the house, so they will bring people from outside into the Cao family, and they are busy with Cao Ying in the dark."
"This, this, this ......"
"Isn't this ten thousand people to ride? Don't the old man of the Cao family know? ”
"Hmph...... Who knows if the old man of the Cao family is also ......"
An ambiguous low laugh sounded, and the idlers gathered together had expressions on their faces that all men understood.
Zhu Yunxi's face changed slightly, and there was a wave of nausea in his heart.
Immediately quickened his pace, leaving this group of whispering idlers, but stopped in front of a fragrant stall.
Guarding the stall was an old man with a scar on his face.
Looking at the stall in front of the old man, a large pot sits on a large stove, and inside is gray-yellow rice mixed with pickle root and a little refined crystal clear fat.
When the old man saw Zhu Yunxi stop in front of him, he immediately got up, bowed down and said, "Pickle rice, the son must not be used to eating it." The pastries of Zhang Ji in front of him are a must-have in this area, and the son can buy some and take them back to the house to eat. ”
He didn't even do business.
Zhu Yunxi shook his head and beckoned Sun Cheng to come over.
"Pickle rice?"
Sun Cheng glanced at the old man's stall, his face was surprised, and then at the scar on the old man's face, he was even more surprised: "My husband has worked hard in the army?" ”
The old man shook his head and waved his hand, his face a little longing for memories, but it was quickly covered by the vicissitudes of life.
Zhu Yunxi sighed slightly in his heart: "Uncle, come to four bowls, I'll take them away." ”
The old man looked at Zhu Yunxi in surprise, and was about to excuse himself again.
Sun Cheng on the side opened his mouth: "Uncle, just listen to my son-in-law." My old lady came here eating this pickle rice back then. ”
The old man's face changed again, he became more excited, and when he looked at Zhu Yunxi again, the expression in his eyes seemed to be watching his juniors die later.
He nodded again and again, and his hands were busy: "Okay, good!" Just remember them all! ”
As he spoke, the old man divided four pottery bowls, pressed them tightly in his hands, and regardless of whether the four bowls could be sent back, they were wrapped and sent to Sun Cheng's hands.
"Rough, eat slowly, now that the days are better, I want to live a more delicate life."
Sun Cheng promised in his mouth, took the wrapped pickle rice with one hand, took out a piece of broken silver with the other hand and stuffed it into the old man's hand: "The bowl will not be returned, put it away, don't see it, don't lose it." ”
The old man was about to excuse himself, but Sun Cheng had already withdrawn a few steps, looked at Zhu Yunxi, who had a dark face, and the two of them blended into the crowd without looking back.
