Chapter 34: The Conspiracy Behind Juxian Building

"Haha! Don't worry, the old man knows the severity, I will never publicize it, you can rest assured. ”

Hearing the old man's answer, Sheng Zhiyao breathed a sigh of relief, and continued: "I still don't know the old man's honorific name? ”

"The old man's surname is Li, the origin of the single word, and he is a few years younger than my granddaughter, you can call me Grandpa Yuan."

"Grandpa Yuan, you are the imperial chef, why did you still go to Juxian Building?" Sheng Zhiyao asked.

"It's a long story, let's go inside the house and talk about it."

The old man walked to the room, Sheng Zhiyao followed, and along the way, the old man also told Sheng Zhiyao about the matter, the original grandfather was the chef in charge of the imperial dining room, but because he stayed in the imperial dining room for a long time, although his cooking skills were good, he always felt that there were shortcomings, he began to want to go to the outside world to see, so he asked the emperor to resign, and the emperor agreed although he was reluctant.

Three years have passed, and now Grandpa Yuan is in his fifties, his health is not as good as before, and he has some difficulty walking outside, so he returned to the capital.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he came back, he heard that Juxianlou had changed the boss and the dishes, saying that there was a chef in charge, which made him very surprised, so he also wanted to try it, but he found that the taste of the dish was wrong when he ate a dish, because the dish was originally created by him, and he also found a few people to inquire, but when Xiao Er found out, he slandered him for eating the overlord meal and beat him, and robbed him of the only silver taels.

"As far as I know, His Majesty the Emperor has not been appointed as the head chef after I left, and the person who is the imperial chef cannot go to work in other restaurants, isn't it strange? After I tasted the dishes made by the chef of Juxianlou, I was sure that this chef didn't know how to cook at all, and it seemed that he just followed the recipe step by step, but there were some secret ingredients that they didn't have, so the taste was lacking. ”

"Are you saying that Juxian Lou stole the recipes of the Imperial Dining Room, and then used the sign of the Imperial Chef to make a lot of money in Juxian Building?" Hearing the old man's words, Sheng Zhiyao couldn't help frowning, if this is the case, the people in Juxian Building are indeed too shameless.

"That's right." Grandpa Yuan nodded affirmatively.

Sheng Zhiyao was furious in his heart.

"It's so deceitful, don't they know that the royal face is very important? It is simply audacious to dare to steal the techniques of the royal kitchen, and I will go to seek justice now. ”

"You calm down first, and listen to what I have to say." Seeing this, Grandpa Yuan hurriedly called Sheng Zhiyao.

Sheng Zhiyao stopped, looked at Grandpa Yuan, and waited for him to continue.

"How do the people in Juxian know my recipes? They must have some purpose in accumulating wealth like this, if it is for money, then these silver taels are enough, but there are also many Wang Qin magnates there to patronize, so they should not only do it for money, but also for collecting intelligence about the capital. ”

"What else do you mean is behind this Gathering Fresh Building?"

Hearing Grandpa Yuan's explanation, Sheng Zhiyao gradually calmed down.

"Not bad."

Grandpa Yuan nodded, and he continued: "The main purpose of them doing this is to get some news from the court, so that they can get more benefits from our court, after all, the news in the palace is the most important, and these news are related to the fortunes of the country." ”

Listening to Grandpa Yuan's words, Sheng Zhiyao's eyes suddenly lit up: "That means that the boss behind Juxian Building must be a high-ranking official or someone from the royal family, or the instruction of these people, otherwise they can't be fearless." ”

After listening to Sheng Zhiyao's analysis, Grandpa Yuan glanced at her approvingly, and he said with a smile: "You are worthy of being the county lord, you are really smart." ”

"Grandpa Yuan, since Juxian Building is so powerful, why don't we join forces and strangle Juxian Building in the cradle? Wouldn't that save us a lot of trouble? Hearing Grandpa Yuan's appreciation, Sheng Zhiyao was happy in his heart and immediately proposed.

Grandpa Yuan's eyes flashed, he thought for a while and said, "This is not a bad way, but there is still some time, and you can't rush it yet, you don't have to get involved for the time being, I'll find someone to investigate first." ”

Sheng Zhiyao nodded, indicating understanding.

Then after the two chatted for a while, Grandpa Yuan got up and left, Sheng Zhiyao stood at the door and watched Grandpa Yuan go away, thinking secretly in his heart: Grandpa Yuan is right, now is not the time, otherwise we will easily fall into a situation from which we will never recover.

Sheng Zhiyao walked back to the Purple Phoenix Hall with the prepared medicinal food, and heard that the emperor in the hall was reprimanding people.

Imperial Physician Wang fell to his knees, his head lowered, and he didn't dare to breathe.

"Your Majesty, Weichen is guilty."

"Hmph, guilty? Are you still guilty? Are you still worthy of being the head of the Tai Hospital? The Emperor roared angrily.

The emperor's roar shook the ears of the imperial physician.

He knew that the emperor was angry, so he didn't dare to raise his head at all, and he didn't dare to say a word.

"Say, how is that young doctor doing now?"

"Emperor Qi, the young imperial doctor ......"

"What's wrong with him, say!"

"Back to the emperor, the young imperial doctor has been taking my tonic medicine for four days now after taking the county lord's antidote, but... But it didn't work at all, and now I'm bedridden. ”

"Waste, a bunch of rice buckets." After hearing this, the emperor scolded angrily, and the emperor was furious, and his finger pointed at the imperial physician who was kneeling on the ground and continued to shout: "Get out, get out of here." ”

Hearing the emperor's words, the imperial physician left the Purple Phoenix Hall with a crawl, and saw Sheng Zhiyao who was holding medicinal food at the door, staring at her with a pair of eyes, eager to eat her alive, but he didn't dare, after all, the emperor is still there, if he really does something, I'm afraid it will be the crime of the Jiu clan, so he had to glared at Sheng Zhiyao viciously, turned around and walked away.

After the imperial physician left, the emperor slammed the table, his fists were clenched, and his face was pale, fortunately, he didn't let the imperial physician give the queen those decoctions at that time, otherwise the queen would be dead now! Thinking of this, his body couldn't help but shudder, he was a little happy, but his face was even more gloomy.

He picked up the teacup on the table and drank it down, and his heart was even more determined about Zhi Yao's previous proposal.

Sheng Zhiyao walked into the hall and didn't speak, just silently put down the meal and retreated, and accompanied the queen to eat in the queen's bedroom.

Imperial Physician Wang walked back to the Imperial Hospital, and as soon as he entered the lobby, he saw a group of Imperial Physicians all surrounding and whispering, and a little eunuch suddenly ran to his ear and said something to him, and Imperial Physician Wang's face turned pale.

Looking at these guys with their heads down, looking like they were thieves, seeing this, Imperial Doctor Wang sighed in his heart, and hurriedly walked into the lobby and came to the center of the crowd with an angry face.

"What are you doing?" Imperial Physician Wang asked angrily.

Hearing the words of Imperial Physician Wang, everyone trembled with fright, and they all fell on a imperial physician.

This imperial physician is the apprentice of Imperial Physician Wang, and when he saw Imperial Physician Wang's appearance, he suddenly sighed in his heart, knowing that something was wrong.

"Head of the Royal Court, you ...... What's wrong with you? Who messed with you? The Imperial Physician asked cautiously.

After listening to the words of the Imperial Doctor, Imperial Physician Wang suddenly understood in his heart that his heart was horizontal and he decided to let it go.

"Humph! You bunch of waste, you dare to chew your tongue behind your back? The old man is still the head of the hospital, and you dare to talk about the old man, you are simply tired of it. Imperial Physician Wang stared at the group of imperial physicians with a hideous expression.

Seeing Imperial Physician Wang's expression, everyone was shocked, and they fell to their knees one after another, with a look of fear and panic.

"Isn't it just a yellow-haired girl, who dares to be so arrogant? Hum! They even want to replace me, it's really unbelievable. Imperial Physician Wang said viciously.

"What did you say, Chief? The county lord wants to replace you? ”
